After Sheng Changbai left, Li Hao walked back and said to Zhu Manniang's brother: "I have already sent someone to check what you just said, let's wait for the news here together, if what you say is true, then your life will be saved." If what you want to say is false, you just think about how to die more happily, and I can allow you to choose for yourself. ”

After finishing speaking, he was blocked again, and Zhu Manniang's brother wanted to struggle when he saw this, but he was kicked twice by his subordinates before he could be honest. Then Li Hao asked people to watch in the room, and ordered: "No one is allowed to talk to him, don't chat blindly with each other, if he has any misdeeds, just pause first." ”

Then he left the house, and by the way, he ordered people to search the place where he lived, and brought all the land deeds of the fields and shops that Zhu Manniang's brother said.

After giving the order, he went to the courtyard and sat down and waited for Gu Tingye to come over.

After waiting for half an hour, Gu Tingye didn't wait, but the person who went to Zhu Manniang's brother to search for things came back, there were three land deeds in total, and I don't know if any of them have been sold, just this Gu Tingye hasn't found out yet, Li Hao can't help but sigh that Gu Tingye is indeed rich.

After a long while, Gu Tingye and Sheng Changbai hurriedly arrived, and when they saw Li Hao sitting in the courtyard, Sheng Changbai asked, "What about that person, is he still inside?" ”

Li Hao replied: "Yes, I let people watch, and when they came out, they made people shut their mouths, and they didn't let people talk to him, I guess I was scared." ”

Hearing that someone was inside, Gu Tingye wanted to rush in, but was grabbed by Li Hao and said, "Brother Gu wants to ask when he goes in." ”

Gu Tingye held back his anger and said: "Naturally, I asked directly, if he didn't tell the truth, he would be beaten until he said it." ”

After hearing this, Li Hao said: "This method can naturally be used, but if Brother Gu comes to ask and makes him recognize Brother Gu, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to hear the truth." Now he thinks that we are robbers who rob homes and houses, so it is better to ask like this, Brother Gu is listening from the sidelines, if there is anything you want to ask, tell me, and I will speak. ”

After hearing this, Sheng Changbai also persuaded: "Zhong Huai, I know that you still don't believe what I said now, but you listen to what he said in person, whether it is true or false, I believe you have your own judgment." When you want to do with it, my cousin and I will do whatever you want. ”

Gu Tingye calmed down at this time, took a few deep breaths, and said, "Okay, I'll go in and don't speak, let's listen to what he has to say for the time being." ”

After hearing Gu Tingye's promise, Li Hao took out the three land deeds just now and said, "This is what I just sent someone to search from that person's house, Brother Gu can first see if this is your family's property." ”

After Gu Tingye took it, he confirmed at a glance: "This is my family's thing." It seemed a little hard to believe.

After hearing this, Li Hao said, "Okay, I just want to confirm it in advance, so let's go in." ”

After speaking, he led the two and walked in, and Li Hao ordered someone to take down the cloth that blocked his mouth. said: "You have found a lot of things in your house, but there are only three land deeds for the field shop, and that's all." I heard that Gu Tingye's hand has countless money shops, not to mention millions, you said that your sister is his outer room, there is only so much, are you not fooling me. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Manniang's brother immediately defended: "I will never dare to deceive all the heroes, there were still some of them, but I changed the money and lost it in the casino." But it doesn't matter, now that my sister gave birth to a boy and a girl to Gu Tingye, she is favored, as long as you let me go, you will definitely give a lot of money. ”

After hearing this, Li Hao smiled and said: "Are you a fool for us, let you go, you can send me money again, don't you have to bring an official to arrest me." I don't think you're honest, so let's cut you down. These three land deeds are even your burial money, and I will definitely help you find a place to bury them. ”

Then he commanded: "Drag him down and solve it." When the servant heard this, he came over.

Zhu Manniang's brother hurriedly struggled and said, "Good man, how can you believe me, I am telling the truth." ”

Hearing this, Li Hao asked everyone to stop, and then said: "Don't blame me for not believing you, it's that what you said is a bit outrageous." What kind of person is Gu Tingye, the pioneer in the amorous array, and Zhao Zilong under the peony flower. Your sister is a person who can climb his high branches, and it's hard for you to convince me, you know. ”

Zhu Manniang's brother cried after hearing this: "But this is true, I really don't dare to deceive the hero." ”

Li Hao felt that the time had come at this time, so he said: "In this way, you can tell me how you let your sister into Gu Tingye's side, and tell me about it." If it is reasonable, then I will believe you, and then you will sign a handprint for me, saying that you owe me a thousand eight hundred taels of silver, and then I will let you go. ”

"But if it sounds like a lie to me, then you buy the life money, anyway, I have received it, and I will arrange it for you at that time, which can be regarded as worthy of you."

Zhu Manniang's brother said: "What I said must be true, if I tell a lie, I will be hit by five thunders and cut off my children and grandchildren." ”

After hearing this, Li Hao smiled and said: "Come on, don't swear, if the oath can come true, then there will be many deaths." You better be honest, your life is in your own hands, hurry up. ”

So next, Zhu Manniang's brother told him how to weave a miserable life experience from Jiangzhou, how to pretend to be pitiful, how to approach Gu Tingye step by step like water, and how to come to Bianjing from Jiangzhou step by step. As he spoke, when he talked about the brother and sister teaming up to play with Gu Tingye, the excitement of playing with the originally high-ranking people between applause was overflowing.

Hearing this, Gu Tingye couldn't hold back any longer, and rushed over directly, not even holding Sheng Changbai who was standing next to him. Gu Tingye stepped forward and picked up Zhu Manniang's brother and beat him. During the fight, he also knocked off his blindfold.

When Zhu Manniang's brother's eyes eased and saw that it was Gu Tingye beating him, he was stunned. Li Hao next to him was afraid that he would really kill someone, so he hurriedly went up to stop him, but he was pushed away by Gu Tingye, so he had to let the little guy next to him go up and pull Gu Tingye away.

After pulling it away, Zhu Manniang's brother could only lie on the ground and moan, and Li Hao saw this, so he asked to take people to another room first.

After the others left, Li Hao said to Gu Tingye: "You have heard the specific things just now, and you can decide what to do with it later." ”

Gu Tingye next to him was standing quietly, and he didn't know if he heard Li Hao's words. After waiting for a while, he came back to his senses and said, "Thank you Brother Li and Changbai today, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid that I would still be kept in the dark by that slut." I went back and dealt with them first, and he came back to thank them both later. ”

After hearing this, Li Hao said, "Do you want me to lend you a few people to make it convenient for you to use." ”

After hearing this, Gu Tingye said: "No need, the stone is outside, just let him take that person away." I'm going to take my leave today. ”

After speaking, he turned around and left, and after the stone came, Li Hao handed the person over to the stone.

After they left, Sheng Changbai said: "Zhong Huai is really ill-fated, first there was such a stepmother, and then he met such a poisonous woman. ”

After hearing this, Li Hao replied: "Maybe this is a drink and a peck, it is precisely because Brother Gu lost his mother when he was young and was not loved by his father that he longed for family warmth." And this Zhu Manniang just weaved a beautiful lie for Brother Gu, so that Brother Gu was deeply trapped and unwilling to escape. ”

Hearing this, Sheng Changbai looked at Li Hao carefully and said: "Today's events have made me look at my cousin with admiration, although I knew that my cousin was smart in the past, I didn't think I could have such insight into people's hearts. ”

Li Hao smiled after hearing this: "Then I thank my cousin for his praise." Then he changed the topic and said, "But I'm still worried that Brother Gu will be soft-hearted and have branches in the end." ”

After hearing this, Sheng Changbai said: "It shouldn't be, Zhong Huai has always been strategic and decisive, and since he has reached this point, he should not be soft-hearted." ”

Li Hao said: "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, let's give him a guarantee." ”

So Li Hao asked the military patrol officer who was eating and drinking to call over, and ordered: "There is one thing that you need to help me do, I will go to the house in Xiao Tianshui Lane tonight to guard the passages to the outside, if there is that Zhu Manniang and the man arrested today to escape, they will be directly detained." ”

After speaking, he asked Fu Deng to give three taels of silver to each of the officials present, and then said: "Today's hard work, everyone, this is hard money for everyone, I hope you can leave after the time of the little sweet water lane." ”

However, Li Hao later thought of the overall dereliction of duty and slackness of the officials at the bottom of the Great Song Dynasty, so he warned: "But there is an ugly sentence I want to put in front, if it is because someone is slacking off and people escape, don't talk about silver at that time, someone on my board will also suffer." ”

When they heard this, all the people below responded, and then they were ordered to go and guard their respective places.

After everyone left, Li Hao said: "Let's go back and rest, tomorrow will naturally have results." ”

After Sheng Changbai heard this, he and Li Hao said goodbye and went back to Shengfu.

I slept peacefully all night, and when Li Hao was just about to go to the government on the second day, I saw that the official who was arranged to go to Xiaotianshui Lane yesterday came to the house to report, and after Li Hao let people in, he asked: "Why, come here so early, is there something wrong?" ”

The official replied: "As my lord expected, at about five o'clock today, we saw a man and a woman with a child sneaking out of that house and wanted to run, so we stopped them. ”

It turned out that it was Zhu Manniang and the man from yesterday, who were originally going to be brought to see the adult. But not long after it was deducted, Gu Jiaerlang came to ask for someone, and we didn't dare not give it, so we handed it over to Gu Erlang. Then I rushed to inform the adults and asked what to do. ”

After hearing this, Li Hao said: "You guys have done a good job, you go back and tell them, you can go back and rest." ”

When the servant heard this, he said yes and left.

After the others left, Li Hao felt that Zhu Manniang should be in a catastrophe this time, otherwise if he let Zhu Manniang go, unless Gu Tingye was really a fool.

So he went to the ya, and after the ya, Li Hao returned to the house, and got the news from Sheng Changbai, knowing that Zhu Manniang was dead, and he was buried immediately after reporting his illness.
