Mei Xiaoren turned to look at Chu Yu, and pretended to reluctantly say: "Lord Chu, you don't support your waist like this, you don't show up, at most you can only call for help, you see Wen Shangshu supporting Wen Bin, people directly came to the academy, and arrested all the people who had a holiday with Wen Bin and beat them to death, giving Wen Bin authority." ”

The corners of his lips rose, "I'm sorry, I have neither power nor power, and I can't move the people of your government." Then he said slowly, "It's better to wait for me to be promoted one day, and I will order someone to tie that Gao Tongzhi in front of you, and let you beat and scold you."

Even though he knew it was a joke, Mei Xiaoren smiled and nodded, and said hello in response.

Laughing and laughing, she still waved her hand and bowed to Chu Yu, thanked him, and then presented the charge in her hand and asked him for his opinion.

Chu Yu didn't answer, it should have been finished reading.

"As expected," he said, "I didn't plan to kill two birds with one stone. ”

"Why" Mei Xiaoren was confused, she suddenly remembered something, and replied to herself, "Because he has a backer, he is not easy to move"

She was suspicious, but Chu Yu sold it and said that she would know in the future.

Mei Xiaoren became more and more curious after hearing this, how long after he said this, he meant how long

She knew that Chu Yu had no place to stay in Xuanzhou, and wanted to keep Chu Yu to live here, but he had never seen the beginning and the end, and he was unwilling to stay in the mansion that Lao Li lent her to live in, and before he left, he only said that he lived in an inn in the south of the city.

In the early morning of the second day, Mei Xiaoren went to the mansion, and as soon as he got off the sedan chair, he saw a woman standing in front of the mansion office, dressed in splendid clothes, a little eye-catching.

The officials who came in and out couldn't help but glance at the woman a few times, their eyes were strange and curious, as if they were guessing the woman's origin.

It turns out that Gao Jingshu's colleagues don't know Xiao Ru either, so it can be seen that Xiao Ru is right, Gao Jingshu has never treated her as a wife, never mentioned it to the public, and Xiao Ru has never been to the yamen. Even if she didn't go to Gaofu, she didn't know that Xiao Ru was inside.

Yesterday was unpleasant, Mei Xiaoren didn't want to pay attention to it, but Xiao Ru has been staying here and is prone to gossip, she walked to Xiao Ru's side and asked indifferently: "Miss Xiao has something?"

"Master Mei" Xiao Ru looked at her earnestly and said lightly, "I have nothing else to do, I just want to meet my brother, and I hope that Lord Mei will be fulfilled." ”

My sister just wanted to see her brother, it was not a non-trivial request, Mei Xiaoren nodded and agreed, and personally took Xiao Ru to the prison. She just wanted to borrow Xiao Ru's mouth to ask why Xiao Lin would help Gao Jingshu carry his sins.

When she was about to reach Xiao Lin's cage, Xiao Ru stopped and said to her, "Can you stay, let me and my brother have a few words?"

Mei Xiaoren took a look, she could see everything about Xiao Lin standing here, no different from the past, but Xiao Lin couldn't see her.

She agreed, and let Xiao Ru walk to the cage alone.

Xiao Ru squatted down and shouted "Brother" while holding the wooden fence

Xiao Lin also threw himself in front of the railing, "Aru, why are you here?"

At this time, Xiao Lin was not at all like what Mei Xiaoren had seen before, and now his clothes were dirty, his hair was messy, and he looked a little embarrassed, not at all like the eldest son of the Xiao family.

Mei Xiaoren had been watching Xiao Ru visit Xiao Lin from the side, and heard a crucial point from it, which solved her previous questions.

The reason why Xiao Lin would be desperate to bear the sin that day was because Gao Jingshu sandwiched a piece of Nan Ru Su, and milk and Ru Nai are homonyms. He naively thought that as long as he resisted everything, Gao Jingshu would treat Xiao Ru well and continue to be the backer of the Xiao family, but it backfired.

Xiao Ru said that after Gao Jingshu went back that night

drove her out of Gaofu.

When Xiao Lin learned this, he hit his head against the wooden fence, and he regretted it, but he still refused to tell the truth, and even used him instead of Gao Jingshu when he mentioned this matter, so that even if the jailers heard it, they couldn't use it as evidence, maybe they were afraid that Gao Jingshu's backers would retaliate against the Xiao family.

The official of the torture room behind her said: "My lord, according to his humble position, it is better to let him taste some hardships, he will definitely recruit from the truth." ”

Mei Xiaoren beckoned, disappreroving, "He's just been used as a pawn, and it's pitiful enough to fall into this end, go back and fetch him some water and let him freshen up." ”

After she said this, she turned around and left, and when she got out of the prison, the sun shone on her face, which made her suddenly remember what she had said to her father before, saying that the Xiao family had better be disciplined and disciplined, and never ask the government for help, otherwise she would die and not be saved.

I didn't expect it to be a prophecy

Mei Xiaoren returned to the general judgment family, and now she is the only one under this roof. The room opposite was empty, everything was still there, but there was no one.

She was lazy for a long time yesterday, and the paperwork on the bookcase was piled up today, and she originally wanted to find Chu Yu in the afternoon, but now it seems a little hanging.

Mei Xiaoren looked through them one by one, and after reading them, he handed them over to the people in the sixth room to do, and he also learned that he would be Lao Li.

Xiao Lin's case, Lao Li was also saddened by it, he had no intention of asking anything else, and he hadn't said anything else about wanting to match her with Qingqing.

It was already evening when Mei Xiaoren left the mansion after finishing his official business, and I don't know if Xiao Ru didn't leave or came again, but he was still standing outside the mansion gate.

"Something else"

Xiao Ru didn't say a word, stuffed a letter into her hand and turned to leave.

Mei Xiaoren looked at the letter in his hand with heavy eyes, and saw that there was no word on the envelope.

She returned to her lodgings and sat down by the lampstand to take it apart and look at it.

Xiao Ru invited her to be a guest at Xiao Mansion as Xiao Mei, saying that she and her father would have an explanation.

After reading it, Mei Xiaoren put the letter on the candle flame and burned it to ashes. Xiao Ru couldn't ask for it herself, so she planned to ask the whole family to ask for it.

She won't go to the Xiao Mansion, even if she wants to hear what they can say, there is no need to see the Xiao family.

At the beginning, it was only Mrs. Xiao who mentioned the separation.

The next morning, she sent a message to Xiao Ru with a place she had picked up.

In the afternoon, the scorching sun was poisoning, and there were only a few pedestrians on the streets south of the city.

Mei Xiaoren walked down the street wearing a plain gauze skirt and a veil, which did not attract the attention of passers-by.

She took advantage of the lunch break of the government to come out and change her clothes at an inn.

After the last incident, she had a shadow of hiring a sedan chair and a carriage, and chose to walk to the agreed place.

She was dressed in an ordinary way, unobtrusive, but there was still a gaze on her for a long time.

The window upstairs in an inn was open, and Chu Yu stood in front of the window overlooking her slowly walking down the street.

Xingyun took the painting according to the master's instructions, and compared it with the painting, even Xingyun felt that the back of the woman on the street was very similar to the back of the woman in the painting, the clothes and hair accessories were the same, and eighty percent were the same person. And the painting is the young lady Xiao who swept the old lady's grave,

Chu Yu was like this, and she also felt that her clothes and the beads on her hair were a little familiar.

After that, she passed by a stall selling umbrellas, bought an umbrella, and walked away with the paper umbrella with two koi painted on it.
