Chapter 131: Truth or Truth
Zhuang Rou didn't catch Hua Yulou, she was very unwilling, so she planned to think of a trap to come out, and when he came back next time, he would get a turtle in an urn, and he would definitely not let him run again.
She bit the shaft of her pen, and a lot of blackened paper had been thrown on the ground, all of which were failed plans.
"......" stared at the empty paper, Zhuang Rou threw the pen away and gave it up, "Don't catch him alive, kill him directly when he comes back." ”
Chu Xia happened to push the door in, and when he heard this, he asked, "Who are you trying to kill?" ”
Zhuang Rou looked at him a little inexplicably, and asked puzzledly: "My lord, why did you come to me in the middle of the night?" ”
"What's the middle of the night, now it's time to have fun." Chu Xia looked back at the sky, thinking that if it was in the capital, wouldn't he just start playing?
It's really a fool, Zhuang Rou said disgustedly: "Women don't have Qinglou restaurants to play, and they can sleep at this kind of time." ”
Chu Xia said in a commanding tone: "It's okay to be a female celebrity, if you have nothing to do, embroider a purse for me." ”
Zhuang Rou looked at him a little unpleasantly, "You men really come with your mouth open, and you are a female celebrity at night, is it easy to be blind in such a dark?" Besides, I don't know how to be a female celebrity, what do you want from me, you stand at the entrance of the yamen, and then say loudly that there is less purse, if someone sends it. I promise to receive a bunch of them tomorrow, and I can't finish hanging up my whole body. ”
"Are you jealous of my prosperous appearance?" Hearing her sour taste, Chu Xia walked in on her own, sat directly on her bed, and then leaned on the bed and glanced at her bed a few times.
"What do you want to do?" Zhuang Rou felt that he was a little strange, what was he doing when he looked at the bed, he should not be interested in himself.
Chu Xia tilted his head and raised his eyebrows to look at her, fanning the fan in his hand, his eyes were weird, "I brought you here, naturally I have to ensure your innocence, otherwise how can I explain to your brother." You've got a man in this house, right? ”
Zhuang Rou's eyes widened, and she looked at him curiously for a long time, and then suddenly grinned, "Yes, I have a beautiful man hidden in the house, and his small appearance is cute." ”
"I will write to Zhuang Xuewen and tell him that I can't control you, so let him come in person." It seems that he can only come up with a killer idea, Chu Xia threatened with a face.
And Zhuang Rou leaned up on his elbows on the table, looked at him and smiled, acting like Hua Yulou just now, "You pretend to be serious, it's even better-looking, the beautiful man who broke into my room in the middle of the night, do you really want to write to my brother?" ”
Chu Xia suddenly glared at her, stopped fanning, gritted his teeth fiercely, and pointed at her and scolded as soon as he slapped the fan: "Zhuang Rou! I warn you, you are not allowed to do this to me again! Otherwise, I'm not going to be kind to you! ”
"Why are you going to be rude to me? I want to see it. Zhuang Rou said disapprerovingly.
"I will ask the emperor to give you a marriage and marry you to General Mozuo of Zhenguo Mansion." Chu Xia gritted his teeth and said, he was angry.
“……”
Zhuang Rou didn't say anything, the smile on her face was put down, and she just looked at him well, and this look was a long time. And Chu Xia was not to be outdone, he was the only one who wandered others, where could he bear others to tease him.
Finally, Zhuang Rou sat up straight and said seriously: "My lord, when my subordinates returned to the house before, they found that the imperial court prisoner named Hua Yulou was in my house. Before, he deliberately led me to meet Cheng Yidao in Shuiyue Pavilion, in order to negotiate a deal with me. ”
After a pause, she continued: "He is willing to provide me with information to solve the case and make meritorious contributions, but the conditions offered are very simple, that is, he wants me not to arrest him again." On the surface, it seems that he likes me, but there must be an ulterior motive for approaching me, and I have no power or power, so I guess it should have something to do with adults. ”
"Today I have rejected him, and if he is to follow, he will still come to me tomorrow. At that time, I will set up an ambush and take him down in one fell swoop, and his light skills are somewhat powerful, so I should put him down first regardless of life and death, and then talk about the matter of living and talking. ”
Chu Xia moved his neck in some discomfort, and when the words came out, he knew that he had made a mistake. This is a rare mistake he will make, and he is still careless, but he is too lazy to end it, which is enough.
He also said solemnly: "Promise him that it will be beneficial for us to gain a firm foothold in Hongzhou." ”
"My lord, I don't care if you really came to Hongzhou for refuge or if you have another purpose, you don't need to tell me. My brother only asked me to come with you, and if you want to protect or something, your four guards are enough. ”
Zhuang Rou said seriously: "I don't believe you don't know when Hua Yulou turned into the yamen, there are your people next door, but I don't care about this." I don't care about your business, there are orders that I will complete as a subordinate, but you still want to throw me out as bait and put me to death like you did last time in Douhu County, then I will pull you to bury you. ”
The corners of Xiaojunwang's mouth slowly brought a smile, revealing a harmless smile, "The relationship between the two of us may not be as simple as you think, you can't die in Hongzhou, and I need someone who can mess up Hongzhou." Recently, I thought that Zhuang Xuewen might have been waiting for an opportunity, so he silently endured it for so long. ”
"And now the opportunity has come, bringing you to Hongzhou, on the one hand, it really wants you to stay away from the strife in the capital. On the other hand, it is probably a statement. After all, Zhuang Xuewen only has one relative, and it is enough to use it as a bargaining chip. ”
After saying these words, he stood up with a smile of mystery and walked towards the door.
Just as he was about to step out of the threshold, Zhuang Rou reached out and pressed on the door frame, directly blocking him. Standing on tiptoe, he leaned forward, and at a distance of only two fingers from his face, he threatened viciously: "No matter what my brother does, I believe in him, even if he uses me as a bargaining chip." If you provoke our relationship again, I will let you, the king of the county, only be today. ”
Chu Xia raised his eyebrows as he watched her, stretched out his finger and pressed it on her lips, pushing her away. Then he showed a gentle smile and said, "Stay away from me, I don't like women who are so close to me and get rashes." ”
Zhuang Rou was stunned, and immediately scolded angrily: "Then why did you come to me all day long, you are sick!" ”
"Why?" Chu Xia suddenly smiled brightly, "Because I want to use you to get close to Zhuang Xuewen, I have to sacrifice the hue, and the effect is still very good." ”
"Chu Xia, one day you will be in the wilderness!" Seeing that he no longer concealed it at all, and the words he said were so annoying, Zhuang Rou scolded angrily.
Chu Xia snapped open the fan, fanned it a few times, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Zhuang Rou, agree to Huayulou's conditions, don't forget that you are an aspiring arrester, and you should not abandon your duties for the sake of your children's personal grievances." Those unjust souls who died in vain are still waiting for you, otherwise you can only be like Ding Lian'er, no one will avenge her. ”
"Get out." Zhuang Rou pointed to the door and shouted, never wanting to look at this guy again.
"That's not good, you are the king's favorite woman, there is something to do for you, and there is a black cauldron to carry for you. Hold it in the palm of your hand for fear of falling, and hold it in your mouth for fear of melting. After Chu Xia finished saying this, he turned around and left with a smile.
Zhuang Rou watched him leave coldly, stood in the courtyard for a while, then turned around and walked under the eaves, took down a lantern and went out.
When she came to the prison, there were still people interrogated inside, and everyone wanted to catch a few more bandits, but no one said why they asked for a long time. Those delicate women must be fine when they look at it, so they can only whip the casino nursing home that looks tough.
But this Cheng Yidao was killed in Shuiyue Pavilion, and he was far away from them, so he had no intersection at all, and he couldn't tell if he was beaten.
Zhuang Rou went down to the prison, listened to the sound of torture inside, and directly pushed the cell door open.
Xu Yuanhui was already too tired at this time, and he couldn't ask anything, and Song Tongju, who was messing around, fainted in the afternoon. I couldn't help in the first place, but now I don't even have anyone to come and take a look and replace him for a rest meeting.
At this time, the door was unceremoniously pushed open, and he was so irritable that he turned around and wanted to scold a few words, but found that it was Zhuang Rou, and suddenly wondered what she was doing.
Zhuang Rou hugged his fists at him, "Xu Tongju hasn't rested yet, do you want me to take care of you for a while?" ”
"Torture is my business, I don't need you to worry about it." Xu Tongju didn't want to see her, so he refused directly.
Anyway, it's okay, Zhuang Rou just smiled, then found a stool next to him and sat down against the wall, holding his hands and watching him quietly torture.
Xu Yuanhui could have taken a nap during the torture, but Zhuang Rou sat behind him, and suddenly felt uncomfortable up and down like a pins and needles. After sitting with a broken face for a long time, he finally turned around and asked, "Zhuang Dianshi, aren't you injured, why don't you go back and rest early?" ”
"Thank you Xu Tongju for your concern, I'm fine, this torture is a painful and laborious thing, I'm here to accompany Xu Tongju." Zhuang Rou smiled and thanked him.
Obviously didn't mean that, seeing that she was cheeky and unwilling to leave, Xu Yuanhui could only continue to sit in place, looking at the prisoners who couldn't ask anything, and wondering which people could be tortured and which could not be beaten. After a long time, I only felt physically and mentally exhausted.
Finally, he turned around and looked at Zhuang Rou, who was sitting there motionless, not disgusted by the dirty and noisy torture room at all, "Zhuang Dianshi, I want to drink a glass of water, I will trouble you to take care of it here." ”
Xu Yuanhui thought very well, since she liked it, let her ask, just sit behind and stare at it, and she could also eat and rest.
"No problem." Zhuang Rou smiled at him and stood up, and after Xu Yuanhui got out of the way, he sat in his seat. Looking down at the paperwork on the table, it was a gambling house called Guangyuan that was being tortured now.
What is the use of such people, they are simply used as scapegoats. She waved her hand and said to the jailer, "Take him down, remember to use some medicine, don't kill or maim people." Bring the proprietor of Guangyuan Gambling House up, I have something to ask him. ”
The proprietor of this Guangyuan gambling house had already stuffed the silver, and he also bought a nursing home to come and be beaten and tortured, and now when he heard that he was going to be brought up, the jailers did not move, and they all looked at Xu Yuanhui.
Xu Yuanhui was holding the tea that had already cooled, and before he could take a sip, he saw that she was going to take the owner of Guangyuan Casino, so he was a little annoyed and wanted to refuse.
But Zhuang Rou opened her mouth faster than him, "Just ask without punishment, lie to you as a puppy." ”
"......" Xu Yuanhui's words came to her lips, and she blocked her childish assurance, so she had to look at the jailer. The jailer understood and immediately took the tortured nursing home down to the owner of the Guangyuan gambling house.
When he brought the person here, Zhuang Rou was writing quickly on a piece of paper, and when he saw that the person had come, he picked up the paper and blew the ink, and then put it down satisfied.
