Chapter 237: Preparing for the Killer
Master Qu was stunned, looking at the serious look on Gu Nuannuan's face, he doubted for a while, could it be that he was wrong?
He's only in his thirties, not to the point of being dizzy with old eyes!
Master Zhao also walked over, glanced at Gu Nuannuan, and then looked at Su Xiangxuan: "Master Su, what do you mean by this?" ”
Su Xiangxuan frowned slightly, and just when he wanted to say something, Mu Rongyun spoke: "Lord Chen can push Master Su out to block the danger in a panic, Nuan Nuan is just panicking when he sees his relatives injured." ”
Gu Nuannuan secretly glanced at Mu Rongyun, and secretly gave him an appreciative look, amazing, Mu Rongyun!
In this way, others will have a comparison, you hurt someone's uncle, and what happened to you when people said a few words about you?
If you have an opinion, it means that you are cheap and good!
Lord Chen, who was helped up, touched his injured arm, only felt that it hurt everywhere, and when he heard Mu Rongyun's words, his eyes widened at the moment, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't refute it!
Hearing this, Master Zhao said lightly: "Even so, you shouldn't arrange adults, it's impossible to steal the relief food of the people." ”
"Whether it's true or not, Lord Chen knows it in his heart." Gu Nuannuan's voice came, "The batch of relief food half a month ago, I want to ask, have you eaten?" ”
Gu Nuannuan looked at the victims and asked slowly.
The victims were stunned, and an old woman quickly jumped out: "What food!" What relief food! We've been gnawing on the bark for a month now! ”
"That's right! The wild vegetables are gone, the bark is gone, the water is gone, and we can't live anymore! ”
"Your government embezzled our relief food, and you want us to die!"
"You're murderers!"
"Who said it wasn't given to you! Didn't someone give you porridge outside? That's the relief food of the imperial court! Master Chen's eyes rolled and he said quickly.
Gu Nuannuan chuckled twice, looked at Lord Chen, and raised her eyebrows: "My lord, I found that you are quite thick-skinned." ”
Lord Chen's eyes narrowed, and he quickly looked at Su Xiangxuan: "Master Su, don't you care about Miss Gu?" ”
"Lord Chen, my second uncle is seriously injured and should rest first." Su Yuyi said, and said to Su Xiangxuan, "Second uncle, I'll send you over." ”
Then he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Second uncle, with the idle king here, Nuan Nuan will be fine." ”
Su Xiangxuan glanced at Gu Nuannuan, Gu Nuannuan nodded at Su Xiangxuan, and was forcibly taken away by Su Yuyi.
"Lord Chen, when did the grain brought by my people become the food sent by the imperial court?"
"What did you say?" Lord Chen was stunned, and Master Qu and Master Zhao on the side glanced at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.
Gu Nuannuan looked at the people with a shallow smile on her face: "Someone gave you porridge ten days ago, but some of you are too greedy and want all the food. ”
"Those people are my people, I know that there is a drought here in River City, so I asked them to come and deliver food, I didn't expect such a thing to happen."
"As for the food sent by the imperial court, you'd better ask Lord Chen, what's going on?"
"If Lord Chen says that he didn't receive the relief food from the imperial court, it just so happens that my second uncle has a holy decree, and the holy decree is clearly written."
"Lord Chen?"
Gu Nuannuan looked at Master Chen, but Master Zhao said: "I said Miss Gu, you are young, don't talk wildly, those grains are yours, what evidence do you have?" ”
Mu Rongyun didn't know when she came to Gu Nuannuan's side again, seeing Mu Rongyun nodded, Gu Nuannuan smiled slightly, and said to Master Chen: "Just call those people out." ”
Lord Chen and the two masters glanced at each other, but Master Qu shook his head, with a look of vigilance in his eyes.
The common people discussed with each other, and the old woman came to Gu Nuannuan's side: "Child, you tell the old woman that the court really has relief food?" ”
"Yes."
"Good, good, good! The old woman's body couldn't help but tremble, "The court didn't give up on us!" Didn't give up on us! ”
"I knew that it must be these black-hearted people who embezzled food! They want our lives! ”
Gu Nuannuan patted the old woman's shoulder and said slowly, "It'll be fine." ”
The victims were not stupid, and they quickly understood, and their eyes were full of anger when they looked at Lord Chen.
"You, you, killed our relatives!"
Lord Chen quickly took a few steps back, while Master Zhao and Master Qu hid behind Lord Chen.
"Nonsense!" Lord Chen roared, but the people were calmed, "What nonsense! ”
"Miss!"
Outside, Feng Qi and others came over.
"That's right! It's the porridge they sent! The old woman cried out.
Lord Chen's heart sank suddenly, he didn't expect that they would really come when the wind rose!
"Miss!" Feng Qi and the others walked behind Gu Nuannuan and looked at the person in front of them vigilantly.
Gu Nuannuan smiled: "How?" Lord Chen? ”
"Say! Where is our food! ”
"Give us back our food!"
"Hand over the grain!"
The people flocked up, and the officials quickly blocked the people, but the people broke out, and they could not compare.
The officials panicked and protected Lord Chen's retreat.
"Get your knife out! Whoever dares to rush up, don't blame Lord Ben for being injured! Lord Chen roared angrily, and the officials quickly pulled out their knives when they heard this.
A look of horror appeared on the faces of the common people, and they took a few steps back, although they were afraid, they still hated Lord Chen.
Seeing this, Lord Chen snorted coldly, turned around and left with Master Qu and Master Zhao.
When the people saw this, they could only scold bitterly, and they couldn't do anything.
Gu Nuannuan winked at Mu Rongyun: "In order to thank you, I will give you a gift." ”
Mu Rongyun raised his eyebrows: "What?" ”
Gu Nuannuan was silent: "Wait." ”
Half an hour later, the sound of the horse's hooves came, Gu Nuannuan looked at more and more people surrounding him, raised his voice, and said word by word: "I know you are angry, and listen to me." ”
"This young lady, we thank you for bringing us food, we were wrong at the beginning, we were provoked, thinking you were profiteers, so we ...... I'm sorry. ”
The old woman's face was full of guilt.
"I'm not going to say this, River City has been in drought for a long time, and now the idle king and the merchant Du Qi bought grain for Master Du and transported it."
As she spoke, Gu Nuannuan motioned for everyone to look over: "Look, everyone! That's the grain cart over there! ”
There was disbelief on everyone's faces, however, the scene in front of them told them that it was true!
Mu Rongyun's people came with ten carriages, and the horse curtain was opened, revealing the grain inside.
The people were excited: "It's food!" It's food! ”
"Oh my God! And water! I see the water! We are saved! ”
"We've got something to eat!"
"Queue, all queue! This time, let's not wronged others! The old woman hurriedly said.
"Yes, yes, Grandma Li is right!"
Gu Nuannuan handed over the matter to Feng Qi, but said to Mu Rongyun: "Let's go find a water source." ”
"Okay." Mu Rongyun responded lightly.
"Impressed?" The two walked to the side, and Gu Nuannuan said with a smile.
Mu Rongyun chuckled twice, reached out and rubbed Gu Nuannuan's hair: "I know that you are kind, but there is no need." ”
"Win the hearts of the people and win the world, you don't want the world, but in this way, the emperor will not dare to attack you."
Mu Rongyun's heart moved suddenly, and the warm current crossed the bottom of his heart, looking at Gu Nuannuan's eyes with tenderness.
Gu Nuannuan said slowly: "Don't talk about this, what do you think about the water source?" ”
After Mu Rongyun took Gu Nuannuan for half an hour, he finally came to a dry river: "There is no way for the time being." ”
Gu Nuannuan glanced around, her brows furrowed.
"We'll have to find another way."
"Well, go back first." Mu Rongyun nodded, and the two walked back, and the people were already eating with bowls.
When he came to the door of the mansion, Mu Rongyun grabbed Gu Nuannuan: "I will continue to check the account book, and if there is something, I will directly release a signal flare." As he spoke, he put the signal flare in Gu Nuannuan's hand.
Gu Nuannuan nodded, and after watching Mu Rongyun leave, he entered the mansion.
went directly to Su Yucheng's room, and after checking it, he went to Su Xiangxuan's room next door.
At this time, Su Xiangxuan looked at the introduction sent to Hezhou and the surroundings of Hezhou, frowned, and discussed with Su Yuyi.
After seeing Gu Nuannuan, Su Xiangxuan sighed: "Nuan Nuan, you are careless, tell the corruption so quickly, Lord Chen, they must be vigilant, and it will be even more difficult for us to investigate at that time." ”
"Second uncle, it's been more than half a month, and nothing has been found, which shows that they are very vigilant, and now I am telling them that we already know."
"In this way, they will naturally be frightened, and they will not be able to resist to see if the thing is still there."
"Just in time, we can find the ledger while they are moving."
Gu Nuannuan's words made Su Xiangxuan and Su Yuyi suddenly realize.
"Although it is said that the grass scares the snake, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."
Gu Nuannuan continued.
"That makes sense, but now it seems that it's a matter of water." Su Yuyi said.
Gu Nuannuan walked over, looked at the base map spread on the table, and frowned slightly: "This matter is in a hurry, so I can only take my time." ”
Gu Nuannuan left time for the two of them, and she went to Su Yucheng's room and waited for Su Yucheng to wake up.
And Lord Chen, Master Qu, Master Zhao and Master Wang were very angry, they didn't expect to be put together by a female doll.
"No, I can't swallow this breath!" Master Chen slammed the table, his eyes full of cruelty.
"What do you want to do, sir?"
Lord Chen snorted coldly: "Isn't Su Yucheng still awake?" Now there is only one Yang Zhutou and one Gu Nuannuan guarding, when the time comes, I will let Yang Zhutou be transferred, and one Gu Nuannuan can stop my killer? ”
"Since they dare to do this to me, I will let her enjoy the pain of the death of her loved ones!"
