When the court is old, even if the prefect is a young official, he knows what it looks like.

"Master Gu." The prefect didn't expect Gu Rin to come, so he knelt on the ground with a thud, where was there still the momentum of Fang Cai, and said in a trembling voice: "The little one doesn't know that Lord Gu is coming, and he has missed the distance, so please forgive me." ”

Gu Rin waved his hand a little impatiently, "I'm just here to listen to the fun."

Don't kneel at me, I'm tired of looking. ”

The prefect lay on the ground and hesitated for a long time, and finally stood up tremblingly, shocked and frightened, "I don't know why Lord Gu is here?" ”

"Oh." Gu Rin replied casually, "The days are boring, just passing by." ”

The smile on the prefect's face suddenly stiffened.

"What's going on?" Gu Rin glanced at the hall and asked, "Looking at the mess outside, let's explain." ”

The prefect took the plunge and explained what happened.

"The confession is not right." Gu Rin said lightly, "How did the prefect judge the case?" ”

"Uh... They were fined fifty taels of silver, and there were no twenty boards. ”

Gu Rin pursed his lips and snorted.

"The confession is not correct, there is no evidence at all, and you start to judge the case?" Gu Rin hooked his lips and asked rhetorically with a bit of sarcasm in his tone, "Then if I say that you took bribes now, and you don't admit it, I can also arrest you?" ”

The prefect knelt on the ground again with a thud, and stammered, "Subordinate, subordinate don't dare..."

"Don't get close to me." Gu Rin said lightly, "I don't have subordinates like you who arbitrarily judge cases. ”

The prefect racked his brains, and suddenly shouted, "I have witnesses!" Master Gu, I have witnesses to prove the truth! ”

Gu Rin blinked, "Well, call it out and take a look." ”

The prefect got up from the ground with a roll, ran into the crowd, and re-arrested the young man Su Yu had just caught, and asked excitedly

said, "Are you here at the time, right, tell Master Gu that what the shopkeeper said is the truth, isn't it?" ”

The prefect's nervous state was like a madman, and Gu Rin, who had been standing above the public court, seemed much calmer, and the young man was ruthless, and he also knelt down heavily and said, "This lord, things don't want to be as he said, the guests at this table eat just ordinary meals, which are not worth five taels of silver at all, and the shopkeeper also blackmailed them with porcelain plates, and if they can't get the silver, they will beat people!" ”

Gu Rin chuckled.

"Your Excellency." He sighed, "That's what you call a witness, and it's really fair." ”

The prefect's cold sweat was already wet with his underwear, and he said in a trembling voice, "It's the little one who has eyes and no beads, and he almost handled an unjust, false and wrongful case, and the little one will bring this shopkeeper to justice!" ”

"Someone!" He cried out, "Take this man to prison!" No one is to let him out without my orders! ”

"Oops." Gu Rin said, "Don't be so troublesome, you can go together." ”

The prefect was stunned for a moment, "Master Gu, what do you mean by this?" ”

Gu Rin sighed and said, "I've had enough." ”

"You are the prefect, but the officials and bandits colluded, conniving at his own nephew to defraud the guests in the restaurant, and asking for a sky-high price." He said slowly, "Long-term oppression of ordinary people, malicious collection of taxes for corruption, these alone, you can sit through the prison." ”

Su Yu watched Gu Rin solve all the things in less than two pillars of incense, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, Gu Rin really deserves to be the old man of the court, he does things neatly, and he will never drag things out

If you don't find out before, you will never act rashly.

She was almost certain that Gu Rin already knew the whole truth before entering the court, and the words he asked in the official mansion were just for fun.

"Let's go." Gu Rin came to them, "The land of right and wrong should not stay for a long time." ”

After such a farce, it was not early, Gu Rin took them to find an inn to settle in, and it was not until a few of them sat down in the lobby that Su Yu had a chance to ask, "Lord Gu, why are you here?" ”

Murong Xuan also immediately asked, "Yes, Ge Lao, shouldn't you be in the palace?" How did you come to such a remote place. ”

Gu Rin's face did not change, "Have you ever heard of the drought in Shushui County?" ”

"Drought?" Su Yu asked, "How long has it been since it rained?" ”

"It's been more than three months." Gu Rin said, "Shushui County is located on the border, which is not as prosperous as the city, but now it is even more affected by drought, the grain harvest in the fields is very poor, and the people can hardly survive. ”

He took a sip of tea and continued, "If this goes on can't solve the problem, we need to start with the problem, in order to share the emperor's worries, I must personally go to Shushui County to see what the situation there is." ”

Shushui County.

Su Yu went through the map in his mind, as if he was just on the way with their itinerary, maybe they could walk together for a while.

Thinking of this, Su Yu's mood changed a lot, and her face became happy, Gu Rin took in all the changes in the expression on her face, and she didn't pierce it very gracefully.

Gu Rin changed the topic and said, "How are you doing these days?" ”

Murong Xuan seemed to have opened a chatterbox, poured the bitter water out of his mind, and said quickly, "Don't mention it, I can't even think about what we encountered along the way." ”

"I first met bandits, then I met snakes, I finally entered the county seat, and I met the incident just now, and I was annoyed to death." Murong Xuan complained.

The corners of Gu Rin's lips hooked, and he teased, "Murong Xuan, then you like it."

Days in the palace, or days like this? ”

As soon as he asked this, Murong Xuan suddenly stopped talking, two scarlets climbed on his cheeks unconsciously, and he glanced at Su Yu secretly and said, "I still like it... Days like this. ”

Gu Rin raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Huh?" Murong Xuan, I really didn't see that you like to fight and kill noisy days so much. ”

"It's not." Murong Xuan retorted anxiously, "I'm just... I just love spending time with my sister. ”

Su Yu raised his head slightly when he heard this, and Murong Xuan was full of caution and caution

Looking at herself, she snorted out laughing, rubbed two handfuls on his head and said, "What's so good about such a day, don't talk nonsense." ”

Gu Rin looked at this scene, and felt a little uncomfortable.

He said, "You two, is the relationship going fast?" ”

"Of course." Murong Xuan said triumphantly, "My sister knows a lot of things, and she takes special care of me, which is quite powerful." ”

Gu Rin suddenly lost interest and continued to chat with them.

"Eat." He said lightly, "I'm full." ”

After saying that, he walked out like a gust of wind, the dishes and chopsticks in front of Gu Rin didn't move much at all, and he almost didn't eat a bite of this meal, Murong Xuan asked cautiously, "Sister, what's wrong with Elder Ge?" ”

Su Yu choked on a mouthful of rice in his throat, and it took a long time before he said, "You go ahead and eat, I'll go out and see him." ”

"Oh good." Murong Xuan nodded obediently, "It's getting dark, you guys come back quickly." ”

"Got it." Su Yu hurriedly threw down three words and chased in the direction where Gu Rin had just disappeared.

He didn't go far, he stood alone on the side of the street, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Master Gu?" Su Yu called softly, "You haven't eaten much, isn't it unpalatable?" ”

Only then did Gu Rin notice Su Yu's words, and his eyes wandered back and forth on her a few times before he spoke, "What? Don't accompany Murong Xuan to dinner? ”

Su Yu was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "He's not a baby anymore, and he needs someone to accompany him when he eats." ”

"Isn't that what he is?" Gu Rin said, his face was a little unpredictable

Ding: "Not only do you need someone to accompany you when you eat, but you also need someone to take care of you, listen to him, you are very happy to take care of him." ”

Su Yu didn't know why, so it took a long time to say, "It's just a child, isn't it normal to take care of it more, not to mention that this time only the two of us are with us." ”

"Kid?" Gu Rin repeated.

"Isn't that just a child?" Su Yu was puzzled, "Murong Xuan is only twelve years old, he still doesn't understand some things, it's normal to take care of some more." ”
