The prefect said: "This case can only end here, and when new evidence emerges in the future, the official can continue to interrogate." ”

He is the head of a government, and there are a lot of cases and official duties that need to be handled every day, even Gu Xi can't let him focus all his manpower and financial resources on this case that has obviously come to light.

In fact, the prefect has already tried his best to solve this case.

If the Jiang family makes another request, it will be difficult for some strongmen.

Jiang got up and bowed to the prefect and Lord Xie, "The concubine is grateful to the Lord for being the master of the Xianggong, without you, the Xianggong will not be able to get out of danger smoothly, the kindness of the Prefect, I will remember it with the Prime Minister in my heart, and I will try my best to repay it in the future." ”

The stone in the prefect's heart fell to the ground completely, and he hurriedly said: "Mr. Gu's reputation is prominent, and his name covers the world, and he is the pride of Guangzhou City under the rule of this official. ”

"This official really can't afford it, ashamed, ashamed. This official appreciates Mr. Gu's talent, and this time Mr. Gu will be able to soar into Beijing this time, so Mr. Gu should not forget his own official. ”

The prefect is afraid that he will pursue it further, and he will have to marry Gu Xi, Mrs. Jiang is so knowledgeable, he is more optimistic about Gu Xi's family entering Beijing.

Sometimes, finding out all the truth is the best outcome.

Gu Xi used to be too high-minded, so he couldn't stand the officialdom and resigned.

After several years of precipitation, Gu Xi has made great progress, not only in terms of talent, but also in dealing with people.

And Gu Xi is a little more pragmatic and less empty talk!

The prefect said: "Mr. Gu had better start as soon as possible to recuperate, and save not enough days on the road, Your Majesty's affairs are a big deal, so you can't be sloppy." ”

"In three days, I will enter Beijing with His Royal Highness King Rui."

Jiang pulled the corners of his mouth, "Tomorrow, I will also ask the prefect to close the city gate and post a notice, so that the people inside and outside the city don't have to be too nervous when they hear the sound." ”

"This ......"

"Xianggong has received some news, and he will assist His Royal Highness King Rui to exterminate bandits, and in the future, he will not be afraid of being harassed by bandits inside and outside the city."

Jiang Shi chuckled: "If Xianggong can make an inch of merit this time, I will be grateful to Ning Yuanhou, without him pushing Xianggong out, how can Xianggong take this opportunity to find out confidential information?" ”

"Hahaha."

The muscles on the prefect's face twitched slightly, and he laughed dryly, "Mr. Gu is lucky and talented, ordinary people have long been panicked when they are caught, how can they have the heart to listen to secrets?" Mr. Gu also escaped from the cage by himself, and the official really admired it. ”

In three days, the prefect will be able to send Gu Xi away, and Marquis Ning Yuan will return to Beijing soon.

Their battlefield was transferred to the capital, and Guangzhou was able to calm down.

The prefect was most afraid that the two of them would make trouble again, and King Zhao of Rui would come in...... He's just a small four-rank prefect, and no one can afford to offend him.

The prefect left with Mrs. Gu, who committed the crime.

Boss Gu got up from the ground, "An'er hurry up and write me a letter of resignation, I have to divorce this poisonous woman as soon as possible, and I can't let her affect your career." ”

Originally, he didn't think about divorce his wife, after all, after so many years between the two, their children are about to marry a wife.

Now that the city is full of turmoil, he can't leave Mrs. Gu behind.

Gu An said: "It's better to find someone to write a letter of divorce in two days, as long as your mother is convicted, even if you divorce her, it will be difficult for the children of the Gu family to take the road of studying in the imperial examination in the future." At least within three generations, it is difficult for the children of the Gu family to take the imperial examination. ”

"How so? She won't be able to divorce her? ”

Old Mrs. Gu couldn't believe it, "She is no longer our daughter-in-law, can she still affect your imperial examination?" ”

Gu Da Butler said: "The imperial court has clear regulations on the origin of scholars in the imperial examination, and only good citizens whose ancestors have no criminal record can participate in the imperial examination. ”

"Your daughter-in-law colluded with outsiders to poison her father-in-law, causing her father-in-law to almost die, this is the only unfilial crime of rebellion, and it is already Your Majesty's grace to suppress the three generations of your children from the imperial examination."

Although the big housekeeper Gu felt sorry for his sister, he was also very happy, "Fortunately, the eldest young master has completed the imperial examination and proved that he is the son of the British duke, otherwise he would not be able to be an official even if he is talented." ”

When one person makes a mistake, the whole family suffers.

Gu Jiayao didn't like this, but when she thought of the Gu family's old mansion that Ning Yuanhou couldn't get rid of, she secretly rejoiced.

Isn't Marquis Ning Yuan filial?

Don't you want a good reputation and plan to take the Gu family to Beijing?

Such a large family entered Beijing, although there was no Mrs. Gu, but it was enough for Ning Yuanhou and Princess Tong to have a headache.

Everyone in the Gu family had a look of despair and decay on their faces.

Gu Laosan, Gu Laosi looked at the eldest brother very unkindly.

They have no intention of taking the imperial examination, but they have thought about raising their own sons.

There is a sister-in-law who has been sentenced, and it is still a felony of unfilial piety, and it will be difficult for them to do business in the future.

Just relying on the Marquis of Ning Yuan, who is not close?

They don't dare to count on it.

On the contrary, after the Jiang family's business recovered, they also took care of their shop, and they had the intention of making a fortune with them.

But the sister-in-law who caused the trouble has completely offended Gu Xi, can the Jiang family still give them benefits?

"Uncle Gu and the prisoner share the same bed, you don't notice the abnormality of the prisoner at all?"

Gu Jiayao said lightly: "She is not used to killing people, and she can't completely hide her emotions, and it is not a day or two to poison Grandpa Gu, are you ......?"

"Nope! Absolutely nothing! ”

Boss Gu jumped to his feet in a hurry, his face was amazingly white, and he was so angry that he just wanted to block Gu Jiayao's mouth.

As soon as he stretched out his arm to Gu Jiayao, Jiang's foot kicked on his calf, and with a bang, Boss Gu knelt down, covering his leg and wailing, "It's broken, my leg is broken, I want to report to the official...... Jiang hurts. ”

"Shut up!"

Old man Gu barely supported his body, his indignation at the eldest son's incompetence, and his helplessness at the third and fourth children who were as incompetent as quails.

said that he loved Gu Xi more and was too confused, and he still loved him even though he suspected that Gu Xi was not a parent.

But except for Gu Xi, his biological sons are very uncompetitive, they can't study, and they don't have knowledge.

"An'er gagged your father's mouth, stuffed him into the firewood room at the back, and didn't give him food or drink."

“……”

"Let's go."

Old Man Gu glanced at Gu An again and again, and Gu An carried Boss Gu away with his younger brother as instructed.

Jiang nodded secretly, although Old Man Gu is not very knowledgeable, he also has the survival wisdom of a small person.

No wonder he was able to escape the war safely, went south to Guangzhou, and ran a family business.

"I know that Xi'er has suffered, and I don't feel good in my heart, there is already a prisoner in the family, and I can't make any more troubles, and I still have the rest of my sons and grandchildren to take care of."

Old Man Gu looked at Jiang Shi with blank eyes, "Xi'er...... He won't come to see me in the future, and I won't say anything, what do you think? ”

Jiang nodded, and Gu Jiayao said, "Naturally, we won't say much, but Mrs. Gu, who was imprisoned in the prefect's yamen, didn't say anything." ”
