Cheng Haofeng frowned and said nothing, waving his hand to let Zhou Zhi go out in advance. Hu Xianxian didn't understand the cause and effect of the incident, so he pulled Governor Zhou and asked him why the emperor summoned him yesterday.

After they exchanged glances, they only said that it was nothing serious. Hu Xianxian asked directly: "Did Sandou withdraw from his uncle's marriage, and King Chengjun found a reason to stir up trouble?" ”

and pulled out things related to King Chengjun, and Ge Shumei no longer only cared about complaining, but listened quietly to what they had to say. Those maids, maids, tea, and wine also eavesdropped on the hall.

Listening to Hu Xianxian's direct question, Governor Zhou and Cheng Haofeng knew that they couldn't hide it, so they had to tell her.

It turned out that the distant uncle of King Chengjun had died two days ago, and after his death, his son went around preaching that it was Hang Wuyi who killed him with evil magic.

The old uncle's son also went to the yamen of the prefect of Anhui Prefecture to sue Hu Xianxian, suing her for forcing her to withdraw from the marriage contract, and also instructing the apostle to kill people by evil magic.

Cao Songlou, the prefect of Wanzhou, sent a servant to conduct an autopsy, only to see that the old uncle was black, but he was not poisoned, and he was deeply puzzled.

Cao Zhifu did the case of Kuaidian Congqiang marrying Du Wanzhi and Cheng Haofeng and they got acquainted with Cheng Haofeng, he thought that something was wrong, and he did not dare to offend King Chengjun and Hu Xianxian.

So, Cao Songlou wrote a song and sent a fast horse into Beijing to ask the emperor to make a judgment. In the middle of the recital, of course, he would not explicitly say that he could not take the case, but only said that it involved strange and evil arts, and it was difficult for him to judge the case, and asked the emperor to send a national teacher to verify whether it was an evil art to kill people.

In this way, the focus of the problem is not what to do with his Cao Songlou case, but how Cheng Haofeng determined the cause of his uncle's death.

If Cheng Haofeng thinks that the old uncle is just dying of old age and decrepitude, then even if the King of Chengjun has grievances, they will only think that Cheng Haofeng is shielding Hu Xianxian and Hang Wuyi.

If Cheng Haofeng also agrees with the theory that evil magic kills people, then wait to see what he will do with Hu Xianxian and Hang Wuyi.

In short, no matter what, it is a problem for Cheng Haofeng, and he only needs to go through the motions.

After Cheng Haofeng entered the palace yesterday and analyzed with Han Zexi, he thought that it should be that the old uncle was sick and weak, and Sandou's divorce made him stimulated, and he died in anger.

The old uncle's son was a little unconvinced, so King Chengjun instigated him to falsely accuse Hu Xianxian, and also used this matter to explore the bottom line of Han Zexi and Cheng Haofeng.

They decided not to allow Cao Songlou's request, and only to reply to the local affairs to be handled by the local government, and not to overstep the trial because the complainant had a relationship with the imperial family.

However, Hu Xianxian and the others are the defendants, and the government will summon them to the court for the trial, and Cheng Haofeng is unwilling to let them be tried three times or five times. After thinking about it a few times, he asked Han Zexi not to reply to Cao Songlou first, and to come up with a proper way.

This morning, the palace sent someone to ask what to do, and Governor Zhou came. If it drags on for a long time, Han Zexi will also be embarrassed.

After hearing this, Ge Shumei pointed at Hu Xianxian in surprise and said, "You still caused this kind of trouble?" ”

"It's not a disaster, I did it on purpose. King Chengjun wants to find out our bottom, and we still want to find out his bottom. After Hu Xianxian finished speaking to Ge Shumei, he raised his eyebrows at Cheng Haofeng, "It's not a big deal to go to court, I will take Wuyi to Wanzhou for trial, and I can avoid Huo Fei and Wang Shuai." ”

Cheng Haofeng frowned, looked at her sternly and said, "How can I let you go?" Even if they can't hurt you, they'll be caught and pushed around, and strangers will be watching. No matter what, don't go! ”

Others didn't dare to answer, Hu Xianxian also lowered his head, he pondered for a moment and then said to Governor Zhou: "Go and tell the emperor and ask him to reply to Governor Cao, just say that I am too busy to do anything to determine whether it is evil art to kill people, and at the same time recommend Cao Beidao to judge the unsolved case." “

Governor Zhou smiled and took the order, he smiled to mean that the matter has a way to deal with it, and he is easy to deal with; It was also laughing that Cao Songlou kicked the ball to Cheng Haofeng, and let Cheng Haofeng kick it back.

Because Cao Beidao is also a Taoist who is very trusted by the emperor, it is reasonable to recommend him to determine whether he kills people with evil arts. However, Cao Beidao is Cao Songlou's younger brother! Cao Beidao is commonly known as Cao Di Lou, and the word Beidao is the road number taken by the teacher when he is a monk and a monk in the Ming Dynasty. This dilemma depends on his two brothers to weigh it, Cheng Haofeng has regressed.

Cheng Haofeng recommended Cao Beidao to respond to Cao Songlou's invitation, and also added a layer of meaning, that is, to take revenge on Cao Beidao.

It's just because Cao Beidao knows that he is a pawn used by Han Zexi to contain Cheng Haofeng, and he wants to use him to share Cheng Haofeng's prestige in the hearts of the people. He knew that Cheng Haofeng didn't dare to offend him at will, so he did things like sending tea and wine that made Cheng Haofeng unavoidable and embarrassed.

The various games in the middle, Cheng Haofeng is clear, Governor Zhou and Han Zexi are clear, and the tea is also clear to the tea who is standing outside with his head bowed and his hands down. The others didn't understand it for a while, and they only guessed that Cheng Haofeng didn't dare to come forward directly to defend Hu Xianxian.

Hu Xianxian didn't think much about those twists and turns, she only knew that the matter had been pressed, and she was in a hurry to deal with her brother and sister-in-law because of her involvement first.

After discussion, they made a decision, because they thought that Ge Shumei would take care of the family business in Hu Mansion alone, and they were afraid that Wang Shuai would continue to harass her, so she asked her to go back to her parents' house first.

Next, find a way to meet Wang Shuai and Kuai Twelve, so that they are not allowed to do anything again, and the threat to her brother and sister-in-law will be lifted as soon as possible. As for how to let them accept defeat and stop by themselves, Cheng Haofeng did not say.

After they told Ge Shumei to quietly go back to her parents' house, she turned around to leave, and she hurriedly shouted to them: "Wait a minute......

"Anything else?" Hu Xianxian turned around and asked her.

"What the hell are you going to do about it? Don't make it too big. My father is also an official in the court, if I go back to my parents' house and then implicate the Ge family......"

Her worries were not unreasonable, Hu Xianxian frowned and looked at Cheng Haofeng. He didn't say anything, just looked at Ge Shumei with a solemn face, he knew that she still had something to say.

"National teacher, immortal, I know you have the ability, but I heard them say that the Twelve Masters can only order three-legged cat kung fu, but Wang Ershao knows spells. Also, his elder brother Wang Kui is the prince of the owner of Qiyun Mountain Villa, and I heard that the owner of that Yun Villa is also a fairy daughter like an immortal......" Ge Shumei said while looking at Hu Xianxian's face.

Hu Xianxian didn't understand what she meant by saying that those people were not easy to mess with and that they wanted to be soft, and only noticed that Wang Shuai knew how to spell: "Hmm...... I remember a little, that Wang Shuai is the one who wears the golden crown? He seems to have spiritual cultivation, and he was the least injured last night......"

Ge Shumei listened angrily and answered in a complaining tone: "Lightly injured? There are more than a dozen bloody wounds on both calves, and they are still called lightly injured?

Alas, yes, yes, compared to the twelve masters of the Kuai family, it is considered to be lightly injured. After all, Wang Ershao only had skin injuries, and his muscles and bones were fine.

Alas, fairy, you are really going to cause trouble...... What should your brother and I do in the capital in the future? ”

As she spoke, she began to cry, and Cheng Haofeng swept her eyes in disgust: "Mrs. Hu, it's useless to cry." You don't have to blindly complain about the immortals, did they put forward any conditions when they threatened you? You just say what they offered. ”

Ge Shumei didn't answer immediately, but looked at Hu Xianxian coldly. Hu Xianxian didn't have a good impression of this sister-in-law who had only met once before. She knew that her sister-in-law looked down on the small merchant families in Xiaozhou City back then, and even now she was afraid that they would be the villains' ambitions. However, she did cause trouble to her sister-in-law, she felt sorry for Ge Shumei, and she didn't want Cheng Haofeng to speak to her sister-in-law in a blunt tone.

She shook her head lightly at Cheng Haofeng, and then asked Ge Shumei softly: "Sister-in-law, he just wants to solve the problem as soon as possible, please don't blame him, and ask sister-in-law to explain the conditions they put forward when they made trouble more clearly." ”

After listening to these soft words, Ge Shumei said slowly: "The conditions they put forward are really harsh, but I can't help but convey them to you, they said that if they can't meet the conditions, they will demote your brother from his military position."

The first is to heal their wounds and find someone to serve them while they are recuperating.

The second is to ask the national teacher to come to the door in person to apologize to them.

Article 3 ...... Hmmm......"

She paused, looked at Cheng Haofeng apprehensively and said, "I want Xianxian to accompany them to drink wine and eat supper......

Ge Shumei said it tactfully, but they all heard that it must be more than just eating and drinking. Cheng Haofeng's eyelids drooped, and he stared at Ge Shumei with a calm tone but cold words: "You tell them that either cancel the third article, or lie in the coffin and wait for death." ”

Maybe she didn't expect him to say this, Ge Shumei opened her mouth slightly for a while before she reacted: "National teacher, are you going to deal with this matter well?" You also pity and pity us mortals, okay?

If you cause trouble, you can go up to heaven and earth to avoid it, what should we do? What about the parents and relatives in Lingzhou's hometown?

She didn't provoke the mountain spirits and wild monsters this time, she was a wealthy man, and she should solve the problem by herself. Can't let us carry her around for everything......"

Hearing that Ge Shumei not only complained about causing trouble, but also had the heart to let herself compromise and settle the matter, Hu Xianxian's guilt faded away, and anger rose: "Of course I have to bear what I caused myself!" It's a big deal to be punished by heaven and kill all those people! ”

As she spoke, she rushed out, and Ge Shumei was also a little frightened, and hurriedly grabbed her: "This capital is a place for indiscriminate killings?" Can't you stop and stop? What's wrong with just going to accompany them?

There are national teachers to support you, and they don't dare to do anything to you. Women, you have to know how to obey the soft children and coax them.

What kind of system do you shout and kill like this? Where is it like a daughter of the General's Mansion? Like a bandit......"

She dragged Hu Xianxian tightly, Hu Xianxian was afraid of hurting her by mistake, and she didn't dare to struggle violently, so she let her pull her down.

"You let her go. You should teach those who threaten you, not your sister-in-law. I wanted to tear her away from Hu Xianxian's hand, but it was really not like the future sister-in-law to be rude to her sister-in-law. Cheng Haofeng was hindered by his identity, so he had to suppress his anger and retort in a low voice.

Seeing that Cheng Haofeng didn't dare to do anything to himself, Ge Shumei spoke more boldly: "The national teacher doesn't blame me for teaching my sister-in-law harshly, I also think about the national teacher, the so-called 'wife and husband have few disasters', the national teacher won't understand, right?" Sooner or later, she will be your person, and you will be blessed to train her well. ”

Seeing that Hu Xianxian and Cheng Haofeng were embarrassed, the servants were all snickering, and the blood without hatred strode behind Ge Shumei. With the intention of punishing them rather than getting them out of trouble, when he wanted to hit Ge Shumei, he happened to hear another commotion outside the hall.

Looking out of the hall, it was Hu Hairong who came under the guidance of Xiao Daotong, and when he arrived at the door, he knelt down and said with a crying voice: "Save my eldest brother, and save Dengtai ......"

There was trouble coming to the door again, and Hu Xianxian was a little glad that this trouble came, because Ge Shumei finally let go of her.
