553 Almost Exposed (Burst 6)
In the carriage outside the county office, Gu Yi instructed Xiao Si to turn around and go to the Song family's house.
Gu Yi told the old gentleman that Qin Qian's parents had arrived and were questioning the county master in court.
The old gentleman stroked his beard and said unhurriedly, "Don't hurry, let them make trouble for a while, and we'll go over in a quarter of an hour." ”
Xu Liang brought herbal tea over to Gu Yi, the old gentleman secretly looked at him out of the corner of his eye, Yue'er looked at him very strictly, and he didn't even let him drink tea these days, let alone herbal tea.
Gu Yi noticed it, and when he looked back, the old gentleman immediately withdrew his gaze and picked up the warm water in front of him.
The corners of Gu Yi's mouth opened slightly, and he quickly closed it again, looking at Song Wanyue, "Little girl, I have something to say to you." ”
Song Wanyue went out with him.
The old gentleman got up cautiously, looked out, and saw that the two of them had gone to the house on the side, walked over quickly, took the herbal tea and drank it in one go, and shouted in a low voice, "Xu Liang!" ”
Xu Liang heard the sound and came in.
The old gentleman gave him the empty cup, "Go and pour another cup, don't let Yue'er find out." ”
Xu Liang couldn't cry or laugh, "Old man, you ......"
"Go!"
Xu Liang could only helplessly pour another bowl, but this time he didn't dare to leave, so he stayed in the house.
The old gentleman drank to satisfy his hunger, and he didn't worry about it anymore, and drank the warm water in the cup.
Gu Yi told Song Wanyue about Gu Wen and the two going to Jiangnan, "You tell me where your uncle and grandfather live in a while, and I will have someone send them quickly." ”
Song Wanyue didn't answer, staring at him.
Gu Yi's heart was furious when he was looked at, "What, what's wrong?" ”
"You're not normal."
Gu Yi chuckled in his heart, "What, why is it abnormal?" ”
"If it's just such a trivial matter, you can say in front of your great-grandfather, why did you call me out?"
It turned out to be because of this! Gu Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and sold the old gentleman without hesitation, "I see that my great-grandfather wanted to drink herbal tea very much, so he found an excuse to spend on you." ”
Song Wanyue was not angry, in fact, as long as it was not an iced herbal tea, it was no problem for the old gentleman to drink it, the reason why she didn't let him drink it was because she was afraid that the old gentleman would drink it without moderation, and second, she was afraid that he would take the opportunity to drink tea. Although the poison did not harm his body, after all, he had not eaten for several days, and his stomach was a little weak.
"When you go back for a while, you assume you don't know."
Song Wanyue raised her eyebrows, returned to the house, and saw Xu Liang standing next to the place where Gu Yi was sitting just now, his eyes falling on the herbal tea.
The old gentleman's heart lifted.
"What's wrong?"
Song Wanyue asked.
"Nothing ......"
The old gentleman preemptively answered for Xu Liang, "I thought you and Yi'er were going to talk for a while, and let him come in to accompany me." ”
Song Wanyue seemed to believe it and sat down.
The old gentleman hurriedly waved his hand to let Xu Liang retreat, pretending to be okay and drinking the hot water in the cup.
Two quarters of an hour later, Xu Liang called Mr. Xu Er and Xu Yan, and several people came to the gate of the county government in a carriage.
In the county office, the county lord was in a hurry, if it was someone else, he would have ordered the officials to throw people out, but the Qin family and his wife can't, Qin Qian has already taken refuge in the three princes, and the Qin family and his wife are also the people of the three princes.
Mother Qin saw that the county master was forced to say nothing by herself, and the noise became more and more serious.
The county master could only give the master a look, and the master picked up the pen and wrote a line of words, picked it up and walked to Qin's mother, "This is what your son said before he died, you take a good look." ”
The two looked over, and it was clearly written on the paper, "Your son is not dead, he has taken refuge in the third prince." ”
"Can you see clearly?"
Father Qin and Mother Qin were stunned for a moment, and just as they were about to nod, an old voice came from the door, "I don't know what Qin Qian said before he died, can Master let us take a look." ”
After the words fell, the old gentleman walked up to the lobby accompanied by Mr. Xu Er.
The master was startled, and subconsciously hid the paper on which he wrote behind him, "Old, old sir." ”
The county magistrate also came out from behind the table to salute the old gentleman, and the old gentleman avoided it, "The old man went to the court without the permission of the adult, and I ask the adult to forgive me." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare."
The county master took advantage of the time to speak to give the master a look, and the master hurriedly took two steps back, wanting to hide the paper in his hand, but was called out by the old gentleman, "I woke up and learned that Qin Qian was killed by me, and I blamed myself very much, I thought that in a few days I would get better and go to Qin's house to make amends." So, when I heard that his parents were coming, I hurried over, and the master asked me to take it out and let me see what this child said before he died. ”
Where did the master dare to show him. If the matter of the third prince is ruined, he will not be skinned.
"Nothing, really nothing."
As he spoke, he stepped back, and after stepping back from his position, he tore up the paper a few times and stuffed it into his mouth.
As soon as he made this move, the onlookers were in an uproar.
A cold sweat broke out on the county lord's forehead.
"It seems that Qin Qian must have written some big secret, otherwise the master would not rather lose his job than let me see it, let it be, ......"
As he spoke, he looked at Qin's father and Qin's mother, "Everything is because of me, and I apologize to the two of you here." After I was poisoned, my great-granddaughter saved me, and speculated that it was Qin Qian's poisoning, so I suggested that the adults arrest him, but I didn't expect Qin Qian to lose his life, and our family blamed themselves very much. The two of them came all the way, and they had no relatives to rely on in Qingping County, so they asked the two of them to settle down at home with me and discuss Qin Qian's future together. ”
"No, no."
Mother Qin's brain was buzzing, she didn't expect Qin Qian to take refuge in the third prince, did her sister's family know about this matter? If so, why not send them a letter?
"You must go, if you don't go, I won't be at ease when I close my eyes, and please don't shirk it, Xu Liang!"
Xu Liang ran in, "Two of you, please come with me."
Qin's father and Qin's mother had many questions that they wanted to ask Qin Qian, so naturally they wouldn't go with him, "Old man, thank you for your kindness, our husband and wife won't bother us, and we won't blame the adults anymore, if you complain, you will complain about Qian'er Fubo, and you haven't ...... yet."
Speaking of which, I choked up and couldn't go on.
The old gentleman sighed, "Since you don't want to go, I won't be embarrassed, if you encounter anything in the future, just go over to me, and it will be regarded as our compensation for Qin Qian." ”
"Thank you, sir."
The old gentleman was helped away by Mr. Xu Er, and the county magistrate also breathed a sigh of relief, shook his soaked official robe, and announced his retirement.
The onlookers dissipated with discussion, speculating about what Qin Qian had written, and why Qin's father and Qin's mother stopped making trouble after reading it.
The old gentleman sat in the carriage with a slightly gloomy face, and when he walked into the lobby just now, he clearly saw the panic in the eyes of the county magistrate.
"Yi'er, you send someone to do something."
