Mei Xiaoren had an injury on her forearm, and just a simple lifting action made her hurt terribly.

The letter reached Gu Chuyu's hand, and while he flipped through it, he asked her to get up and speak.

Some ministers were puzzled: "My lord, those ...... believers"

After Gu Chuyu read it, he asked Xingyun to distribute the letter to the ministers present.

The ministers exchanged letters with each other, and before long, there was an uproar in the hall.

Wei Guogong asked, "Governor Mei, where did these letters come from?" ”

"Today, the people of the government found the palace maid cuckoo near the pier, and at that time she was holding a letter in her hand, saying that Gao Tongzhi spent a lot of money to buy her and let her steal paintings from dragon boats." Mei Xiaoren also said, "I have compared the family letter left by Du Juan, and confirmed that the family letter is the same as the handwriting of this letter, and it is from Du Juan's hand." ”

Wei Guogong was deeply surprised: "It turned out that it was the palace maid next to His Majesty who was guarding and stealing." ”

"As for the letter between Gao Jingshu and the Flowing Fire Gang, it was left by a maid in the Li Mansion, and it was only discovered today." Mei Xiaoren continued, "That maid has fled after the incident, and it can be seen from the letter that she is a member of the Drifting Fire Gang, and Gao Jingshu hired her to hide the painting in the Li Mansion through the Drifting Fire Gang and blame the prefect. ”

"It is a great crime for a state to know the same thing, and he dares to steal the imperial painting to blame the prefect, and he also dares to assassinate the prime minister." The minister came out and bowed his hand, "Your Excellency must not spare him!" ”

The official Shangshu stepped forward and said: "Prime Minister, although Gao Jingshu is a distant nephew of the humble position, but he has committed such a crime, the humble position will not be tolerated, and everything is subject to the judgment of the adult." ”

"Where are the others?" Gu Chuyu asked.

Mei Xiaoren replied: "The humble post has sent someone to arrest it, and it will be there in a while." ”

"Governor Mei is really young and promising, it is not easy for the Prime Minister to let you find out the truth within a time limit of ten days, and it only took you three days to reveal the truth." Wei Guogong sighed with a smile.

A minister echoed: "It is really unfortunate for Governor Li to meet a subordinate like Gao Tongzhi, but fortunately, he has a talent like Governor Mei under him." ”

A turmoil can only be regarded as a false alarm at this point, Mei Xiaoren's heart has been hanging for a few days, and he can't listen to any praise or disapproval.

She waved her hand at the palace and said: "Prime Minister, the truth of this case is like this, if the Lord does not suspect that the Lord is bending the law for personal gain, then after Gao Tongzhi confesses his guilt, the Lord will return the position of the lowly prefect to Lord Li." ”

Wei Guogong frowned and scolded lightly: "Governor Mei, what you brought is conclusive evidence, how can it be called favoritism, don't talk nonsense." ”

Wei Shuying didn't say anything, he was only glad that his official position was high enough and he stood in front of him enough, and no one could see him snickering.

He had never seen anyone dare to be angry in front of Xiao Yu'er, Brother Mei was the first, but Brother Mei was willing to say some angry words, at least if he would be angry, it would mean that they had not yet reached a strange place between their master and apprentice, and it was difficult not to feel pain.

Wei Shuying was still holding the cuckoo's letter in his hand, and after looking at it a few more times, he admired himself even more, and this handwriting was imitated by him as if it were real.

After Mei Xiaoren finished his request, he didn't hear a reply for a long time, so he should have been acquiesced.

Everyone waited in the hall for more than an hour, and finally waited for Captain Wu to come. Mei Xiaoren went out to listen to her subordinates' reports, but saw that Captain Wu didn't bring anyone, only a piece of news.

"My lord, Gao Tongzhi not only did not admit his guilt, but also instigated the guards in his house to resist stubbornly, they are so numerous that I will not investigate for a while, so that Gao Tongzhi took advantage of the chaos to escape."

"What, escaped?" Mei Xiaoren frowned.

Gao Jingshu fled, this case could not be settled, Mei Xiaoren entered the palace and hurriedly retired, and returned to the government to preside over the arrest of Gao Jingshu.

All the city gates of Xuanzhou have been blocked, and officers and soldiers are searching the streets for traces of Gao Jingshu. Mei Xiaoren was also looking on the street, thinking, she was thinking about where Gao Jingshu would flee.

Looking for a secretary of the ministry? But looking at the attitude of the Ministry of Officials today, it is not like it will cover up Gao Jingshu.

Could it be that Gao Jingshu, a person born as a son of a scholar family, would still wander the world......

It was getting dark, but the lights were still on in Changle Fang.

Soon after Mei Xiaoren left, Wei Shuying followed him to Xuanzhou City and chartered the entire Changle Workshop to listen to the music.

At night, it rained, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the long street, except for the sound of the piano.

Wei Shuying was still sitting in his seat that day, and only at that time did the sound of footsteps reach his ears.

"Bachelor."

Wei Shuying turned his eyes and saw not the beautiful Gao Tongzhi that day, but a civilian wearing a cloak and a hat.

Gao Jingshu untied his robe, took off his hat and asked, "Scholar, what happened, why did Mei Xiaoren suddenly want to arrest his humble position?" ”

Wei Shuying retracted her gaze and looked downstairs, and replied while listening to the song: "Governor Mei got the evidence today, and he has gone to Xiangye to sue you in front of all the ministers, and you still dare to show up, your courage is commendable." ”

"Evidence?" Gao Jingshu frowned, "Where did he get the evidence?" ”

"There are a lot of letters between you and the Drifting Fire Gang, and they are all with her."

Gao Jingshu was suddenly stunned: "What? ”

"You came to me to help you?" Wei Shuying asked lightly.

"My lord, I really didn't expect Mei Xiaoren to get those letters, this matter is really troublesome, and I ask my lord to help him escape this catastrophe, and I am willing to be a cow and a horse for my lord after my humble position."

"Unfortunately, I can't help you." Wei Shuying pretended to sigh helplessly, "I'm here to arrest you too." ”

After he finished speaking, he picked up the lid of the cup and lowered it heavily. As soon as the crisp sound fell, a few Xuanyi guards rushed out of the downstairs. The two threw out the rope to hook the railing on the second floor, and before Gao Jingshu could react, they stepped on the rope and flew upstairs and captured him alive.

Gao Jingshu was suppressed by the two Xuanyi guards and knelt down, and he shouted in a panic: "Scholar, please let me go, I can use it for you, you can let me do anything!" ”

Wei Shuying shook the folding fan and stood up, walked a few steps in front of Gao Jingshu, and said angrily: "I've put up with you kid for a long time, do you know how much trouble you gave me, and how big a Lou Zi you stabbed Xiangye?" ”

"When did the lowly position cause trouble for the adults?" Gao Jingshu thought for a moment and said, "My lord refers to this case?" The adults didn't know about it early on, or did they tell me to avoid my own sins and only write about what my cousin did. ”

"Speaking of this, I have to thank you, if it weren't for your documents, how could the prime minister take the officials for his own use." Wei Shuying reluctantly smiled on his face, and then said, "Your uncle is not only in charge of the ministry, but he also has the eldest princess and the imperial relatives behind him, if it weren't for your sincerity, how could he willingly return to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Gao Jingshu was a little stunned, he thought that the Prime Minister wanted to get rid of the Ministry of Shangshu to envelop him, but who knew that the person the Prime Minister wanted to entrap was not him......

Wei Shuying glanced at Gao Jingshu again, "You are meritorious, but your merit is not low." “

"What's wrong with me?" Gao Jingshu's eyebrows were deeply locked.

"You have stumbled over Lord Mei over and over again, then do you know what kind of friendship he has with Xiangye, Xiangye doesn't treat him as an outsider!"
