Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Hot Potato
Xiao Yao slid down the stone wall and said in fear: "Come and sit down, why am I so scared!" Everyone was a little closer, and they weren't so scared. ”
Yan Rongling also walked over and said casually: "We have walked so many places, and the rented guards have behaved very well, why did we suffer this time?" ”
Gu Shinian still maintained the family demeanor, and slowly walked over and sat down opposite them.
In this way, the people who monitored them through the oil lamp mechanism could see Gu Shinian, but they couldn't see Xiao Yao and Yan Rongling in the blind spot.
Yan Rongling and Xiao Yaoxun exchanged opinions, and then decided to keep quiet for the first time, so as to respond to all changes.
It's really not good, you can expose the identities of Gu Shinian and Xiao Yao, but you can't expose Yan Rongling no matter what. Yan Rongling is the prince, in case he is afraid that Hu Luogou will jump off the wall and kill people.
Gu Shinian looked at Xiao Yao's handwriting on the ground, nodded slightly, and raised his head: "Rong Ling, Lu Yuan, don't worry." No matter who it is, they will never dare to touch me unless they want to die. ”
Xiao Yao's voice sounded, and he said suspiciously: "Second Brother Gu, we have no property exposed along the way, just students who are traveling in the mountains and rivers, who will attack us?" ”
"That's right! We rushed to the capital just for the sake of Qiuqiu, if it is delayed for another three years, the elders of the family will not beat me to death? ”
Yan Rongling also pretended to be annoyed, and Gu Shinian sighed: "Don't worry, two virtuous brothers, let's wait for the people behind the scenes to come." It's really not good, and I have to use my power to suppress people. ”
In the room next to the dungeon, there were Hu Luo and his two sons, as well as the strategist Yuan Shan.
Listening to the dungeon next to it for a long time, there was no movement, leaving one person to watch, and the others went up the ladder to the ground room.
Hu Luo and the others sat down on the chairs, and then said: "Sir, according to you, is this second son of the Guanwen Hou Mansion coming from Zhidao or Hu?" ”
The fan in Yuan Shan's hand shook slightly, and after a while, he said: "The master is too anxious this time, and he hasn't found out the reason yet, Gu Ergongzi started as soon as he appeared, and now it's not easy to do." ”
Hu Luo's eldest son, Hu Bu, was also worried: "Father, Gu Shinian is arrogant, and he can't take the exam, even Zuyin doesn't want to enter the court as an official. If the imperial court wants to send someone to check the straight road, it won't be him. Do the people around him have eyebrows? ”
The youngest son, Hu Jing, immediately replied: "The eldest brother has already confirmed that he has not seen the other two in the capital. ”
"That's good."
As soon as Hu Bu breathed a sigh of relief, Yuan Shan stroked his beard and said: "Don't worry too early, the eldest young master, I also saw the other two just now, and their appearance is very outstanding, not like ordinary students." ”
Hu Luo also recalled: "Don't hide it, Mr. Don't hide it, just now I also felt that the surname Rong was familiar. What are the surnames in Beijing? ”
Yuan Shan pondered for a moment and replied: "There are many people with the surname Rong, but the official position is big enough, and the only one who can make friends with Gu Shinian can be the wife of Taifu Qin, Yunyang Rong's family." ”
"But isn't the Rong family already in decline, where did such a child come from?"
Hu Luo always felt that Yan Rongling was familiar, but no one thought that the prince would go up. Hu Jing was anxious: "Father, in case we catch the wrong one, didn't they come to check the straight road?" ”
Now, Hu Luo is also a little embarrassed. As soon as I heard that Gu Shinian Weifu had a private visit to Tongzhou, I thought that he had received a secret order from the imperial court and came to Tongzhou to collect evidence.
He will act in a hurry and detain him. But if it's just a misunderstanding, and people just untie it to enjoy the mountains and rivers, what should I do?
Hu Jing complained: "Big brother, it's all sisters-in-law who are making meritorious contributions, but in fact, the straight road is repaired every year, how can it be so dangerous." ”
Hu Bu was also a little strange at this time for his eldest brother spreading the news, but he still insisted on his face: "Father, I'm not afraid of 10,000, just in case, we can't tolerate negligence." ”
Hu Luo was also unable to make a decision in his heart, so he could only say: "I have already sent their portraits back to the capital quickly, and I will also ask for instructions on how to place Gu Shinian." Don't you leak the news, has the innkeeper disposed of it? ”
Yuan Shan arched his hand and said, "Master, it has been disposed of." In fact, even if we are wrong, we have a remedy. ”
"What's the solution?"
Hu Luo asked eagerly, Yuan Shan shook the fan in his hand, and said slowly: "We can let them fall unconscious again, and then rescue them." Although there are black shops under the jurisdiction of the lord who seek money and kill people, the lord still takes the black shop to the end, and he can always offset the merits. ”
Hu Luo also thinks it is feasible, although Guan Wenhou is a civilian, he is really crazy, and it is also terrifying.
I still remember that Gu Dian, the son of Guanwen Hou, had an accident in Jiangnan, and the old Guanwen Hou turned the entire Jiangnan over. All the projects related to the landslide have been taken care of, the embezzlement cases of 20 years ago have been revealed, and how many people have died.
Now Hu Luo is really a bit like a hot potato for Gu Shinian, and he can't lose it, let alone put it in his pocket.
Now we can only know what to do when the people who went to the capital come back.
"Knock knock!"
Hu Luo said in a deep voice: "Come in." ”
Manager Lin hurriedly came in and replied, "Master, the third young master hasn't woken up yet." The slave has already invited the famous doctors in Tongzhou, but there is no way. ”
For Hu Qiang, a young son, Hu Luo still has a little love.
I was in an emergency and couldn't get out of the body, but when I saw that someone came back, I was unconscious and went to the doctor, and I didn't worry too much. Now that Hu Qiang is still unconscious, he is a little anxious.
"What then? How did Qiang'er fall into a coma, and what about the people who saved him? Haven't asked why? ”
Manager Lin quickly said: "Master, that family's surname is Qian, there is nothing suspicious." It's just that after the third young master said that he was a big official in Tongzhou, he promised a lot of money, and the family took the third young master back by the way. ”
Yuan Shan felt that the three young masters were in a coma, and the timing of being sent back was too coincidental, which was a bit suspicious.
frowned and said: "Master, the third young master went out to collect rent, and the people around him were enough to protect him." Why is it so coincidental that everyone is dead, and the third young master is left to be rescued? ”
Although Hu Bu and Hu Jing don't like Hu Qiang, they still have to care a little in front of Hu Luo.
"Father, why don't I go and thank my second brother, and by the way, find out the details?"
Hu Luo thought about it, looked at the sky, and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow, I heard that there are female dependents, so it's better to avoid suspicion." Lao Lin, has Madame checked it? ”
"Back to the master, Mrs. and Mrs. Young summoned Miss Qian. It's just that Miss Qian is as her name suggests, and Mrs. is very disliked. ”
Yuan Shan touched his beard and said, "Master, why don't you and your subordinates go to visit and thank you, so that you can ask the reason why the third young master is unconscious." ”
"It's okay, this dungeon dignitaries have been watched, and before the news of the capital comes back, keep an eye on it! Got it? ”
After Hu Luo made arrangements, he asked people to prepare a hundred taels of gold, put them in a tray, and then came to the wing room with Yuan Shan.
After Mr. Lin went in to spread the word, Father-in-law Qian soon came out with Ye Shisan.
