Chapter 34: Crisis

Wu's rush was broken, and Su Yuyue hurriedly asked:

"Mrs. Wu, what kind of business did Zunfu do before?"

Su Yiyue asked her seriously, she thought about it carefully, and said, "It's a kiln business, and it seems that wood is also involved." ”

As soon as she thought of the kiln and wood, Su Yuyue couldn't help but think of the tiles wrapped in gold, among them, could it be that there was such a relationship?

"Something seems to be here!"

When Li Quanyi was helping to pick up the contents of the brocade box, he found that the wooden plank under the main stool was empty, and hurriedly called them over.

Su Yuyue hurriedly stepped forward and knocked on the plank, which was indeed empty.

Li Quanyi took out a knife and lifted the wooden board, but found a brocade box, there was a letter in the brocade box, they opened it and looked at it, and they were stunned, it turned out to be Wu's husband's self-confession, which recorded Zhang Chun's crime and was the evidence to testify against him.

She thought for a while, and immediately said: "Mrs. Wu, you can't move out these days, go to our post station to live for a few days first, I'm afraid this Jiangnan is going to change." ”

Wu clenched his fists, didn't ask the reason, but he also guessed half a point in his heart, "Okay, my daughter and husband died so unjustly, how can I be afraid, I believe you." ”

Su Yuyue hurriedly said: "Without further ado, we will go back immediately." ”

"Okay."

Li Quanyi knew the seriousness of this matter and went over with him.

On the other side, Yun Jue was guarding the door of the post station, and when he saw someone sneaking, he immediately raised his vigilance.

The man wandered away for a while and didn't leave, and Yun Jue took advantage of his distraction and immediately stepped forward.

The cold blade rested on his neck, and Yun Jue said coldly: "Sneaky in front of the post station, what a conspiracy!" ”

"My lord is angry, and I don't mean to offend, but there are some things I want to give to Lord Gu, and now it seems that I can only hand them over to you."

He handed a letter to Yun Jie, who took it and opened it, and a familiar mark appeared in front of him.

Isn't this the mark that Gu Mingyuan found on the gold plate? How do they know this?

"Who the hell is your master?"

The man chuckled, "It's just an inconsequential person, our family just wants to help Master Gu, and there is nothing else to ask for." ”

"Then you come in with me and meet you."

"My lord, since the letter has been delivered, there is no need to go in Xiaxia, just because Zai Xia is a messenger, and I don't know how the content of the letter will help Master Gu, so I will leave."

He suddenly attacked, and Yun Du dodged, and just like that, he quickly disappeared in front of him.

Yun Jue didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly handed the letter to Gu Mingyuan.

Gu Mingyuan opened it and looked at it, and immediately fell into deep thought.

The letter stated that the imprint on the gold plate was the disaster relief money allocated by the emperor to Jiangnan more than ten years ago.

At that time, the disaster in the south of the Yangtze River affected the whole country, and Gao Wen, who was the first assistant, personally supervised it, and then the disaster ended, and he was suddenly found to be corrupt, collaborating with the enemy and treason, and finally sentenced to exterminate the family.

Everyone thought that this batch of embezzled money had flowed into the enemy country of Beiqiang, but no one expected that this money would be kept in the south of the Yangtze River, but it was not wrapped in heavy red mud and made into bricks and tiles, and no one knew.

First the Disease Reduction Division, and then Jiangnan, both cases are inseparable from Gao Wen's case.

Could it be that there is really a grievance in this?

After a while, the person he was waiting for finally arrived.

"Master Gu."

Gu Mingyuan raised his head and smiled, "Master Li, what's the matter with looking for this official." ”

"Xiaguan Li Dongxian is guilty, please forgive me."

"Oh? You have not been charged with any of the cases I am looking at, so I wonder what you are talking about. ”

Li Dongxian bowed deeply and said: "Jiangnan political envoy Zhang Chun was corrupt and perverted the law, first wronged the former Shoufu for corruption, and then secretly hid the money, which is now in the ancestral hall of their Zhang family, not only that, but until today, they have also swallowed the disaster relief funds allocated by His Majesty and built an inferior embankment, and the lower officials are willing to use it as a witness to prove Zhang Chun's crimes." ”

Gu Mingyuan pondered for a moment and said, "Master Li, you should know that if they are guilty, you can't get out of it, I really don't understand, what are your ideas." ”

Li Dongxian gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know if you remember that Zhang Chun asked you to the restaurant and intended to get you drunk?" ”

"Naturally, I remember."

"The adults escaped, but the lower officials suffered greatly."

He said: "At that time, I had just appointed Jiangnan as an official, and I didn't have a lot of blood in my heart, but that Zhang Chun used the same way, involving me ruining the woman's innocence, and being accused of killing the woman's fiancΓ© while drunk, and then the woman forced each other to die, Zhang Chun and others also coerced and lured, and my good wife couldn't bear me to lose this official hat and life, so she endured this breath and made her a concubine." ”

"I have a handle in Zhang Chun's hands, the concubine also acts as his eyes and ears, always watching my every move, over the years, not to mention being forced to do all the bad things with them, even the family is also restless, my only son, was almost poisoned by the concubine, and my wife was so angry that she fell ill."

"I lost all the games in one move, I am sorry for my family, and now I just want to exchange me for the stability and happiness of my family for the rest of my life, although I will not regret it."

Li Dongxian kowtowed heavily, "Master Gu, I would like to saddle the horse for you, please let my family go." ”

After Gu Mingyuan listened, he was also deeply sympathetic.

"Get up."

Li Dongxian looked up and saw that Gu Mingyuan agreed, so he was relieved, "Thank you, Lord Gu!" ”

"Does anyone know about your coming?"

"Back to my lord, Xia Guan didn't reveal it to anyone, he came alone."

Gu Mingyuan nodded, "Very good, if you are as usual these days, I will send someone to protect you and your wife and children." ”

"Thank you, sir!"

After Li Dongxian's matter was dealt with, Gu Mingyuan rubbed his eyebrows, now the cases of Zhang Chun and the Disease Reduction Division all involve the case of the former first assistant, after all, decades have passed, even if it is to be investigated, it will have to be a big deal.

"Husband!"

Hearing Su Yuyue's voice, Gu Mingyuan hurriedly walked out with joy, and was about to greet his own mother-in-law, when he saw Li Quanyi standing with her.

He got angry and said, "How did you stay with him, where did you go?" What was done? ”

Su Yiyue was stunned for a moment, but Li Quanyi was dissatisfied, "Where did I go with her, what did it matter to you, but I can tell you that I did something you couldn't do." ”

"You ......"

Gu Mingyuan's face turned green with anger, and Su Yanyue hurriedly separated the two, "Okay, okay, why did you two quarrel as soon as you met, we have serious things to do this time." ”

Su Yiyue handed the letter in the brocade box to Gu Mingyuan, and after he finished reading it, he suddenly opened it, "It seems that Zhang Chun can't escape this time, no matter what." ”

"Yes." Su Yiyue took out the snuffbox and said, "We found that Mrs. Wu's husband also died in his hands, and the cause of death was that the snuffbox he gave was hidden in the highly poisonous broken intestines. ”

"And now that this matter has been discovered, I have asked Mrs. Wu to stay at the post station first, just in case, and if necessary, it can be used as a witness."

Gu Mingyuan looked at Su Yiyue with satisfaction, and said gently: "Ah Yue, you did a good job. ”

The two of them were about to get tired again, Li Quanyi coughed and said speechlessly: "I'm still here, what are you going to do." ”

Su Yuyue smiled: "If you like it, you can watch it." ”

She took a sip on Gu Mingyuan's face, and Li Quanyi rolled her eyes and went out directly.

In Zhang's Mansion, the broken tiles were also counted, and after the family members finished reporting, Zhang Chun's face turned pale.

"Master, what should I do, there is a piece missing, I don't know if we haven't found it yet, or if someone took it away, and we don't know the situation on Gu Mingyuan's side."

Zhang Chun clenched his fists and sneered: "After checking for a whole day and night, I can't find out anything, I'm afraid Gu Mingyuan already knows." ”

"But what if he doesn't know?"

"No, but now that he has discovered the matter of the embankment, if he sues it, I am afraid that he will be implicated, but at this moment, only the fish die and the net is broken!"

The housekeeper was a little scared, "Master, not to mention that this Gu Mingyuan and his wife are both masters with strong martial arts, and now they still have Song Xinyi's soldiers by their side, we don't have much chance of winning." ”

"Song Xinyi? Emperor Shangao is far away, as long as we kill them by surprise, who will transfer troops to him, anyway, the surname Gao has already been arrested, and when the time comes, he will say that he has a grudge, so let people kill Gu Mingyuan, then isn't everything just death without proof? ”

"But ......."

"Don't hurry up and prepare!"

The housekeeper originally had something to say, but he was all beaten back by Zhang Chun.

He had no choice but to carry it out.

The two on the other side didn't know the danger was coming, and they were having lunch in the dining room, Gu Mingyuan handed the peeled shrimp meat to Su Yiyue, and the two were very happy.

Unexpectedly, the clanging sound of a weapon hitting appeared out of time, and Su Yiyue stopped chopsticks.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Mingyuan was not as sharp as Su Yiyue, even if he heard the voice, he would not think that someone would assassinate them.

She put down her chopsticks and said solemnly: "Maybe I'm too careful, I'll go out and have a look first, and by the way, let's see what Mrs. Wu needs, husband, you eat first, and wait for me to come back." ”

"Okay."

Gu Mingyuan saw her go away, so he continued to peel the shrimp, and also removed the fine bones from the fish.

I don't know if it's his delusion, after Su Yiyue left, the surroundings were a lot quieter, and even the shouting outside the post station was gone.

One of the guards brought a pot of vegetables, put it on the table, and said, "My lord, please use it slowly." ”

"Hmm."

He replied lightly, and in the middle of this gap, the guard pulled out the dagger in his sleeve and plunged it into him.

Gu Mingyuan had already taken precautions, kicked him horizontally, and shook him off.

"I forgot to tell you, our dishes have already been served, and yours is probably not ours."

The guard spat out a mouthful of blood and gritted his teeth and stood up, "It's yours, but it's your severed head meal!" ”

After finishing speaking, the guards on the eaves fell from the sky, Yun Jue and many catchers dined on the other side, and Su Yiyue didn't know where to go.

Now in the courtyard, it is Gu Mingyuan who fights everyone alone.

The housekeeper of the Zhang Mansion appeared in the center and said, "Gu Mingyuan, your time of death has arrived!" ”
