Chapter 36: I'll Bet 20,000!

As soon as these words came out, Gu Tiancheng wanted to slap himself a few times: Isn't this a clear admission that he did it!

Alfred didn't hold on to the problem, but took out a crystal ball, stroked it lightly, and restored the situation of his own sneak attack on the bear envoy during the day.

Gu Tiancheng thought that the Psychic Hall would have such a method, and he was dumbfounded and speechless.

"What else do you have to say now?" Alfrete looked at Gu Tiancheng with a smile and asked.

At this point, it was useless for Gu Tiancheng to deny it. Moreover, no one caught the flaws in his words, but came up with more impeccable evidence, which made Gu Tiancheng feel very defeated.

"I'll admit, that's what I did. ”

"Why?" asked Alfred gently, "our tax collector has nothing to offend you, right?"

Gu Tiancheng explained the situation again, emphasizing that there were many people on the street, but Envoy Xiong had no intention of slowing down, and did not take human life seriously at all.

Alfred's tone was still very gentle, "It's not appropriate for Envoy Xiong to do that, our Psychic Temple will punish him, but it shouldn't be a reason for you to sneak attack the tax collector." ”

Now that the evidence is conclusive, Gu Tiancheng himself has pleaded guilty, and the initiative is completely in the hands of others, which is enough to be aggrieved, but this Alfred still has a harmless face of humans and animals, which makes Gu Tiancheng feel even more disgusting like eating flies.

"I just can't get used to your psychic hall's style, an errand runner dares to be so arrogant, others can't see the lesson, so you stand up to protect your shortcomings! What will you punish? If you can really do that, he will be so arrogant?"

Gu Tiancheng's face was flushed, and he looked at Alfred, and he was impassioned.

"Smack!" Gu Xiuliang stepped forward and slapped Gu Tiancheng hard, beating Gu Tiancheng so that his eyes were full of little stars, his body shook a few times, and he almost fainted.

Luo Gulan hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Gu Tiancheng, covering his mouth to prevent him from screaming.

Gu Xiuliang's face was sad, "Lord Bishop, the dog barks indiscriminately, offends Bishop Tianwei, and asks Lord Bishop to be a large amount, don't worry about a child." ”

Alfrete sighed softly, "Master Hou is serious. Children, always boast of being a representative of enthusiasm and integrity. Isn't Tiancheng just promoted? It's the time to feel good about yourself. Everyone is from the past, and I don't care about what I said just now, and I won't take it to heart.

It's just that Archbishop Xiangwu attaches great importance to the attack on Xiong's envoy, not only personally inquiring about it, but also specifically instructing that the murderer should be severely punished, even if it is a child.

Master Hou, Archbishop Xiangwu's instructions are obviously aimed at your family. So, I also feel embarrassed about this. I hope Master Hou can understand my difficulties. ”

It would be difficult to be good if this matter involved Archbishop Yushin Sangtake.

Gu Xiuliang's face was ugly, "What does the archbishop mean, how to deal with the child?"

Alfred said: "According to the rules of the Psychic Temple, there is no mercy for attacking public servants who are performing official duties. However, Gu Tiancheng is the only son of the Gu family, and the Gu family and the Xiangwu family are ministers in the same palace. The archbishop didn't want to tear his face with the Gu family because of this matter, so he decided to take it lightly: Envoy Xiong lost more than 300 gold coins in taxes during the day, and the Gu family wanted to compensate in full. ”

As soon as the words fell, Luo Gulan protested: "You also said just now, the murderer has someone else, why do you want my family to bear the full amount? Besides, what can a small earthen wall technique do? You let the real murderer not be investigated, but you just hold my family every day." But can I see that my family is easy to bully?"

"That's enough!" Gu Xiuliang yelled at Luo Gulan, turned back to Alfred, and said, "This is what my family should do. My family will definitely do it. ”

Alfrede nodded, very satisfied with Gu Xiuliang's attitude, "As for Tiancheng, he is young and ignorant, so he can be exempted from punishment." But the archbishop specially explained that two days later, Gu Tiancheng and the fifth prince had a competition, and the bets between the two sides were a little different. The archbishop said that as long as the Gu family continued to make additional bets and bet another 10,000 gold coins Gu Tiancheng to win, the matter would be settled. ”

Gu Xiuliang's eyes widened suddenly, "When did the archbishop still pay attention to the competition between the two children? 10,000 gold coins is not a small amount, and there will be a competition in two days, I'm afraid it won't be able to make it up." ”

Alfrete comforted Gu Xiuliang, "Master Hou, compared to Tiancheng's small life, 10,000 gold coins is nothing. ”

Gu Yangming didn't speak all the time, and then spoke coldly, "You go back and tell that Xiangwu Xiongxin that our Gu family is chasing 20,000 yuan! As long as the fifth prince has the ability to win my family's Tiancheng, this money will be my thanks to him for raising his noble hand." ”

Alfred has maintained an elegant and indifferent demeanor since he entered the door, and he looked like he was in his chest, and only then did he show surprise, "The old lord is serious?"

"I won't leave you with anything else. Gu Yangming won't say it twice.

Alfred left with the bear envoy. Only then did Luo Gulan let go of Gu Tiancheng and looked at the swollen half of his face in distress.

"You're too heavy! Look at the kid who hit him. Luo Gulan's eyes were already filled with tears.

Gu Xiuliang also came over to check Gu Tiancheng's injuries, but Gu Tiancheng hid aside.

"I don't do that, Tiancheng doesn't know how many big rebellious things to say. Gu Xiuliang shook his head regretfully, "I'd rather beat him harder than having his head cut off by the Psychic Palace." ”

"Every day, don't blame your father, he is also good for you. The Psychic Hall is not something we can afford to provoke. Those people in the Psychic Palace, don't say that you can't get used to it, and your mother can't get used to it, many people can't get used to it, but there's no way, you can't afford to provoke it. We have suffered a loss in this matter, and we will remember to have a long heart in the future, ah. ”

Luo Gulan carefully applied the wound medicine to Gu Tiancheng and explained in a low voice.

Gu Yangming sat there, motionless, for a long time, and then asked, "How much cash can the family take out now?"

This sentence reminded Luo Gulan, and she stood up and complained, "Dad, 10,000 gold coins is enough for our family to drink a pot." You still have to slap your swollen face and become fat, I'm sure, that Xiangwu Yushin knows, I don't know what to be happy about. ”

"Let me ask you how much money you can come up with now?" Gu Yangming said impatiently.

Luo Gulan hurriedly calculated, "Fifteen or six thousand can still be taken out, and any more will affect the business turnover." ”

When Gu Yangming heard this, he nodded and said, "I still have some coffin books there, and I can make up enough if I take them out." ”

Gu Xiuliang hurriedly said: "Our family has such a big mess, we need money everywhere, how can we do it if we empty it out at once? Why don't I go to Xiangwu's house? Or ask the lord of the country to help me say goodbye?"

Gu Yangming glared, "No!"

After speaking, he stood up and said, "The family took out 10,000 yuan, and tomorrow I will go into the palace to borrow 10,000 yuan from the queen mother." That's it. ”

After speaking, Gu Yangming's face, which had been tense, relaxed slightly, revealing a gentle smile, "Come over every day, grandpa has something to tell you." ”

Gu Xiuliang objected: "Dad, isn't this a matter of borrowing money from the queen mother?"

"What's wrong?" Gu Yangming asked rhetorically, "Borrow 10,000 yuan, and repay 20,000 yuan in two days, and she won't suffer!"

"Twenty thousand?" Luo Gulan exclaimed in surprise and smiled, "Dad is really confident in Tiantian." "Read with a quick eye _
