Chapter Eighty-Five: Eavesdropping
Xie Ling's silence attracted the attention of several people who were talking about things.
The officials also looked at Xie Ling's back in amazement, as long as she was in the place, they used to keep talking and laughing, such silence came too suddenly, causing them to be a little overwhelmed.
"Okay, you go and take a look at this, no matter what, you can't let them continue, it's okay to hit a few times to get angry, don't be too serious."
Gu Changqing withdrew his eyes from Xie Ling, and said to a few officials, there was a thief in Xingchang recently, it is not a serious matter, but he took something from someone or a store, and a petty thief is not worth much, and he was originally caught and closed for a month or two months to teach and teach, but he never thought that this thief was so unlucky, he was caught stealing something, and this group of shops that lost things were all out of people, so he had to be given the law on the spot.
It seems that it is not light, some people are afraid of killing people and run to report the case, anyway, this thief is really wrong to steal something, but it is serious to be killed.
Gu Changqing asked a few officials to take a look, bring the thief back and close it, and those people would be angry.
Although the matter is not big, if this atmosphere of countering violence with violence comes together, then the security in the city will not be so easy to clean up in the future.
A group of people went out in a hurry, and Gu Changqing returned to the study, but he was a little restless when he thought of Xie Ling's performance just now.
So he got up and pretended to walk around Xie Ling's door, wondering what she was doing. But he never thought that he would run into Yan Mu, at this time he was lying under Xie Ling's window, his ears pressed tightly against the window.
Gu Changqing walked over quietly, raised his feet and didn't make a sound, then stayed behind Yan Mu, kicked him hard in the ass, leaned over and whispered, "What are you doing?"
Yan Mu turned his head angrily, and when he saw that it was Gu Changqing, he quickly put his finger to his mouth and sighed, signaling to him with his eyes, and letting him squat down and listen to the movement inside.
Although Gu Changqing also wanted to know what made Yan Mu so excited, he was always proud in his heart, and he would rather not know than do such a thing as eavesdropping, so he kept standing and refused to bow his head.
Yan Mu, pursed his lips slightly, and after expressing his disdain, he decisively reached out and pulled Gu Changqing's arm to pull him down, and pressed his head with his hand to let him eavesdrop.
Gu Changqing wanted to struggle, but Yan Mu seemed to know in advance that he would be like this, and said directly, "I know you want to know too, so you should help me to see if I have something wrong with my ears?" ”
Yan Mu stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the house, and Xie Ling's voice came out slowly.
(1) "What? How so? I thought they wouldn't dare. Xie Ling slapped the table and got up, his face turned red, and he said angrily, "Really, you can see it clearly." ”
(2) "Okay, then I'll take a look, but I'm not sure I can help you get out, after all, I'm limited alone." ”
(3) "They, they won't listen to me, it's useless to say anything, maybe they will even say that I'm sick." ”
(4) "Know, I'll do my best, don't worry." You are optimistic about the movement over there, and come back to me if there is anything. ”
(5) "Okay, I have a headache and need to rest, and it's inconvenient for you to be here." ”
(12345 is all said by Xie Ling alone.) )
Xie Ling was talking inside, and he didn't notice that the two men under the window were eavesdropping.
"Did you find out? She's talking to herself? Yan Mu looked at Gu Changqing with some surprise and innocence, pointed to his head and said, "Isn't she very good here?" ”
Gu Changqing rolled his eyes at Yan Mu, "Are you very idle?" Is it reasonable to eavesdrop on other people's speeches? What's wrong with talking alone, don't you have a time to talk to yourself? ”
After that, get up and leave. Yan Mu pouted innocently, "It's not this, when she speaks, it's like she's talking to someone else, but I looked at it just now, and there was no one in the room at all." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the small hole in the window paper, which was the masterpiece he peeked at, but at this time he felt a cold chill scraping through him.
Gu Changqing happened to look back and see this scene, strode back, picked up Yan Mu and carried it away, "It's getting dark, and the girl said she was going to sleep, and you still peeked." ”
Yan Mu rolled his eyes, "First of all, it's not dark yet, and the residual heat of the sun is still there, and secondly, I'm peeking at you, what if she brings back any man, I'm thinking about you, I'm afraid you'll be deceived." ”
Gu Changqing raised his head, the light on the horizon was indeed still there, like an orange and red gauze skirt splashed on the horizon, such a beautiful sunset scene was rare in winter.
But Yan Mu's sentence just now always felt that something was wrong in retrospect, "What does it have to do with me if she brings people back or not." ”
But this sentence seems to be in line with Yanmu's heart, "Hahahaha, I said that it has something to do with you, you think about it more, what I said is that it has something to do with you, this Nuoda county government is solemn, how can people enter and exit casually, doesn't this have anything to do with you?" ”
Gu Changqing stared at him coldly, and then left, Yan Mu himself was very happy.
Whenever Gu Changqing's heart is weak, others don't understand, but he understands it the most.
Since he was a child, Gu Changqing has always lived like a good-looking porcelain doll, lifeless, and his biggest hobby is to make Gu Changqing show all kinds of expressions.
Gu Changqing returned to his study, his mind was full of words and Xie Ling's self-talk, he knew that Xie Ling might be talking to something they couldn't see, but the words she said seemed to be promising someone else something, mysterious and secretive, but when she said what to save, that is, there would be dangerous things.
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and finally put the teacup in his hand hard, he didn't know what was wrong with him, and he was actually angry for no reason.
In particular, I don't know when he began to believe in the things that Xie Ling said that he could see ghosts, and he was willing to cover it up for her in front of others.
This made him feel uncomfortable all over his body, as if he was being gnawed by countless small insects eating his heart.
"Someone?"
A servant ran in, Gu Changqing rubbed his face with his hand, and then asked, "Have a few of them come back?" ”
The official nodded, "I'm back, I'm heading inside." ”
Gu Changqing then walked out, not to greet him, but it was too depressing in the room, and he just wanted to breathe through the air.
In the courtyard, several officials were walking in the direction of the prison with a man tied up, and when they saw Gu Changqing, they stopped.
"How's it going, doesn't it feel good to be beaten?" Gu Changqing asked the man who was tied up and lowered his head helplessly.
The man raised his head when he heard the voice, Gu Changqing couldn't help but take a cold breath, and he could see that those who bought things were still ruthless.
The man bared his teeth in pain and said with some dissatisfaction, "I said Master Gu, if you want to arrest me, come and arrest me early, then I won't have to be beaten by this." ”
Gu Changqing smiled, "It's reasonable to steal things with you." ”
"Yes, I won't argue with you, how many days will I be locked up this time?"
