55. Gold and silver turn into leaves
Gu Chenfeng suddenly stood up and continued to complain:
"We just responded to the call of Yun'an, went to the exile team to listen to the arrangement, and when we came back, we were charged with such a crime.
This crime is not clear and unconvincing, what evidence is conclusive but only you know it, and we have not seen the so-called evidence, you have to condemn us on this trumped-up charge, we are not convinced, we have to prove our innocence! ”
The old lady was shocked, she didn't expect Gu Chenfeng to look like she had been appointed a moment ago, groveling and begging herself to give him death, so that he could bear the sins of the whole family, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would change his mind again?
The old lady couldn't help but squint her eyes, and looked at Gu Chengfeng with a gloomy face: "Are you sure you have made your choice?" You have to die and not admit your guilt, you want to prove your innocence, don't you? ”
Gu Chenfeng hesitated slightly, then straightened his chest firmly, and nodded vigorously: "Yes!" What we have not done, we must prove our innocence, and we can't just be wronged and die for it! ”
"Good, very good!" The old lady smiled coldly and looked at him sharply: "Then I also said ugly things in front of me, the sins committed by your family, everyone alone is an unforgivable sin,
If you can't prove your innocence, if I catch any evidence of a mistake, your whole family will die!" Do you want to continue to do this? ”
Hearing the old lady's words, the people around them gasped.
There are a total of eight members of their family of seven plus Yuanyuan, and now only Yuanyuan has not been accused of making mistakes, as long as one of the seven of them cannot be proven innocent, the whole family will have to die, isn't this a huge risk?
It's better to accept the old lady's accommodation and directly let one or two people die together, at least in exchange for the chance of other people's lives, compared to the current situation, I'm afraid it's much better, right?
The people of the Gu family also showed a hesitant look after hearing the old lady's words.
After being silent for a while, Shen Yanran was the first to take the initiative to speak: "Our family wants to live together, and we want to die together!" ”
Seeing Shen Yanran taking the lead, several young people also echoed together: "Yes, we want to live together, we want to die together, anyway, none of us have done anything wrong, these accusations are simply false, we can definitely prove our innocence, and no one will affect us all!" ”
"I didn't expect your family to be really united and confident!" The old lady laughed sadly twice.
She didn't know what to say about this family, whether it was unity or too simple? Since she can accuse this family of doing these wrong things, then it proves that she must have done something, even if they want to prove their innocence and clarify the mistakes they didn't make, then after she has done it, it is completely impossible to prove herself.
However, since they were willing to die as a family, she didn't have to be polite to them, a few exiles were just cheap lives, and if it wasn't for some threat to her, she didn't even bother to look at it.
How could Gu Chenfeng not know what the old lady was thinking, how easy was it for the family to prove their innocence?
The old lady deliberately framed her, who can escape? But the family has already made efforts to achieve this, and he can no longer disappoint his family.
At this time, Yuanyuan grabbed one of his fingers again.
Gu Chenfeng looked sideways, and saw Yuanyuan's disc-like face: "Daddy Gu, don't worry, with me here, my system will definitely resolve everyone's crisis this time!" ”
Gu Chenfeng couldn't help but touch his round little head, and he was very relieved.
Fortunately, Yuanyuan, a blessed child, was by their side, which made him seem to have more confidence and confidence.
The Gu family began to prove their innocence one by one.
Gu Chenfeng was accused of faking public affairs and selfishness, and Gu Sanshang's situation was the same as his, and the father and son were pulled out together to prove themselves.
The evidence of their condemnation was the extra goods and silver taels in their baggage.
The people who searched for their baggage directly carried their baggage and threw it on the ground.
"It's full of the belongings of their father and son!"
Gu Chenfeng and Gu Sanshang looked at their respective burdens, obviously swelling up a lot more than before.
Gu Sanshang frowned and refused to admit it: "My baggage doesn't have so many things at all, it's just a small item that the old lady has rewarded us with before!" ”
The old lady didn't listen to his explanations, but just asked sharply: "I'll just ask you, is this burden yours?" ”
The father and son looked at each other and had to nod their heads to admit: "The burden is ours, but the things inside are not what we put in.
We went to the exile team today to listen to Yun An Shizi's speech, the burden is placed in the resting ground, and now when we come back, there are many things in the baggage, it is difficult to guarantee that someone did not frame us and deliberately stuffed these things into our bag, so that we suffered this injustice! ”
"Well, if you think someone has framed you, you can point out who framed you, and if you can find someone who put it in your bag, even if you can clear your innocence!"
When the father and son heard this, they were speechless.
How could they possibly find someone to put something in their baggage in such a short period of time?
Even if they find it, how can they prove that the other party moved their own things, and how can they make the other party admit it?
And this is obviously the old lady's bureau, that is, she wants their family to be punished, even if they find evidence and point out the people who stuffed things in their baggage, but they have the support of the old lady and refuse to admit it, what can they do with each other?
Seeing that the father and son had nothing to say, the old lady couldn't help but laugh, and waved her hand imperatively:
"I see that you father and son, you don't have to do useless struggles anymore, open your burden and see for yourself, I will settle the account of how much gold, silver and materials you have stolen from me."
The two naturally refused to touch this burden.
How can they swallow this breath when they have suffered such an injustice, and they have to open it with their own hands, and let themselves admit that they have stolen something in the baggage?
The old lady did not embarrass them, and after waiting for a long time, seeing that the father and son were motionless, she directly instructed the person next to her:
"Since they don't want to open this burden themselves, then you can help them open it.
Whatever the outcome, they will always have to bear the consequences, and don't think that you will get away with it if you don't want to admit it! ”
When the father and son heard the old lady's arrangement, they remained silent.
They plan to unpack the baggage and see what is inside, so that they can make a final struggle and clarification based on the contents.
Who knows, after the baggage of the two was opened, they found that it was not the so-called materials and gold and silver, but just weeds and leaves that could be seen everywhere!
Seeing the contents inside, those who opened the baggage couldn't help but rummage a few times, only to see that there was nothing extra in it except for the small objects that the old lady had rewarded them with before.
Seeing that the burden of the two of them turned out to be these weeds and leaves, the old lady couldn't help frowning: "Where did you go to the gold, silver and supplies that you were greedy for ink from me?" ”
Gu Chengfeng and Gu Sanshang were also shocked when they saw this situation.
Unexpectedly, the big bag in their baggage was not the belongings and gold and silver that wanted to frame them, but just weeds and leaves!
Seeing the old lady's jaw dropping reaction, and the servant who helped them throw the burden over, they knew that before that, the things in it were definitely supplies and gold and silver, but they didn't know when they were moved, and they all turned into leaves and weeds.
The two looked at Yuanyuan in unison.
Now she is the only one who can do this magical thing.
Sure enough, I saw Yuanyuan wink at them.
The two of them understood immediately.
Putting away the shock in his heart, he reacted quickly and said.
"Old lady, didn't you say that we embezzled your property, gold and silver? The baggage hasn't been touched since we came back to the exile party, only your people searched for it, and then got it here again.
It's all your people, we haven't even touched it, even if you asked us to open the baggage just now, we didn't touch it, and now after opening it, it's full of weeds and leaves, you shouldn't have a reason to say that we are greedy for ink and have lost your wealth and gold and silver, right? ”
