Chapter 70: Return to the Lu family

Gu Jiu was puzzled, and quietly followed behind the two.

After walking for a short while, the two seemed to notice Gu Jiu, and one of them stopped and walked towards Gu Jiu.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer, Gu Jiu immediately held the dagger.

"Uncle, it's really you."

Gu Jiu looked at the person who stopped in front of her and said firmly.

Gu Wensheng didn't speak, and took out something wrapped in a white handkerchief from his cuff.

Gu Jiu glanced at it.

The thread legs are fine, and they are still made of satin.

There is no pattern on the side facing Gu Jiu, but red embroidery marks can be seen on the side.

She had seen a similar embroidery method on Ye Qingyi's embroidery works.

If she guessed correctly, the front of this handkerchief was embroidered with things like winged birds and mandarin ducks.

Shi Yuyan was committing suicide, and Gu Wensheng suddenly gave her a handkerchief of the woman in the boudoir, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that there was a problem.

The dagger rotated one hundred and eighty degrees in the sleeve, and the handle of the knife was outward, shooting down the thing in Gu Wensheng's hand.

The veil hit the ground with a crisp sound.

After rolling, the hairpin and green silk inside are exposed.

"Why do you have a young lady's hairpin, could it be that you are the negative man?" / "Catch the thief!" ”

Gu Jiu and Gu Zhiqi's voices sounded almost at the same time.

They hadn't walked far from Shi's house in the first place, and the people around them turned their heads one after another.

And Gu Zhiqi, as agreed before, ran away after roaring.

Gu Wensheng was not so lucky, Gu Jiu's reaction was beyond his expectations, and he was pressed to the ground before he could react.

"Master Shi has always been generous, if you are pressed in the past, you can exchange a lot of silver, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the surrounding people looking at Gu Wensheng changed subtly.

No one is reluctant to live with money, especially when it comes to helping others and receiving praise.

Looking at the family who ran over quickly, Gu Jiu lowered his head and said softly: "Uncle, you have planted so many heels, haven't you figured out the reason yet?" ”

"Against me, which time have you won!"

The one who led the team over happened to be Shi Xuyao, picked up the hairpin and other things, looked at it carefully, and waved someone to take Gu Wensheng away.

"Miss Jiu, our master is sending you to look for you, please come with us."

"Me?" Gu Jiu pointed to himself and asked uncertainly.

"Yes."

Under Shi Xuyao's gaze, Gu Jiu nodded slowly.

Shi Yuyan was injured and should find a doctor, she didn't know medical skills, so she could only stand when she went.

"Master Shi, Miss Shi's condition has stabilized, and she will wake up in half an hour at most."

"Good, good!"

Gu Jiu stood outside the courtyard, listening to Shi Qiusheng's voice falling, and then watching Shi Xuyao walk in.

"Master, Gu Jiu has arrived. Gu Wensheng was also arrested. ”

"Gu Wensheng! Where is he now? Shi Qiusheng's voice sounded quite excited.

"Firewood room."

"What about Gu Jiu?"

"It's outside."

Subsequently, Gu Jiu saw Shi Qiusheng.

"I don't know what the old man has to do?"

"Talk in a different place."

After a while, Gu Jiu followed Shi Qiusheng to the main hall and listened to him talk about Shi Yuyan's situation during this time.

Although Shi Yuyan had some doubts after waking up, she always deceived herself and let herself survive.

Coupled with the fact that she subconsciously blocked that memory, the whole person's mental state recovered quickly.

"In the entire Cloud City, I have told everyone Yu Yan has come into contact with! Don't mention Gu Zhiqi in front of her, just treat this person as if this person doesn't exist at all! ”

"It was good, but I saw that I was going to agree to the marriage with the Xie family. Can ......"

"But who knew that someone suddenly appeared and shook everything out!"

"Tell me that this child is going to die or live again when he wakes up, I, I...... Alas! ”

After hearing this, Gu Jiu nodded sympathetically.

"This information is inseparable, and Gu Zhiqi and Gu Wensheng let it in. But I just saw Gu Wensheng outside, but also Gu Zhiqi, how did the two of them get into the city? ”

Shi Qiusheng snorted coldly: "Don't think about it, it's the Wang family's ghost!" Wait a minute, go over this fork, and assign a good settlement with them! ”

Then he looked at Gu Jiu and said eagerly: "You said it again last time, is it okay?" ”

Gu Jiu: ...... You'll have to ask a professional psychotherapist.

Shi Yuyan grew up with a lot of pets, and she was originally a high-spirited and face-saving person. Just press her into the dung pit once, and come a second time!

Gu Jiu pursed his lips, took a step back and bent down to apologize.

"Master Shi, Miss Shi's situation is too special, and I don't have a good way. It's just that you just mentioned the Xie family, why don't you ask Miss Shi's fiancΓ© to come over and persuade you? ”

Gu Jiu paused, and continued to explain in Shi Qiusheng's surprised eyes: "I saw the little son of the Xie family by chance yesterday, he looks like a jade tree in the wind, and he looks much better than that Gu Zhiqi. ”

"If he persuades carefully and shows his unwillingness to give up on Miss Shi, he may be able to let Miss Shi come out quickly."

Seeing that Shi Qiusheng was about to show an approving gaze, Gu Jiu changed his words and continued: "But this is just speculation, I don't dare to guarantee the outcome." You can list all the methods in a list and choose the one you think is best. ”

Shi Qiusheng frowned and nodded solemnly.

After finishing speaking, Gu Jiu found a reason and left. This matter is now beyond her control, and staying in it will only cause trouble.

As for what happens next for Shi Yuyan, it can only depend on her own creation.

When Shi Qiusheng took Shi Yuyan to leave Gujia Village, she reminded Shi Qiusheng that she must pay attention not to let Shi Yuyan contact Gu Zhiqi again, even if she sees similar people or hears similar gossip. The latter also swore that Gu Zhiqi would not be able to enter the city at all, and now that this has happened, how can I say it.

In fact, even she didn't expect that Gu Zheqi's roots would be chopped up, and she still had the guts to provoke the Shi family.

……

The next day at noon.

Lu Qiuzhi was taken to the execution ground on time.

Gu Jiu and Shao Baisi disguised themselves and blended in the crowd.

"What would happen if you found out that you betrayed him first?"

Hearing this, the Gu family glanced at Shao Baisi: "Then take out your and compensate him." Besides, she doesn't think that the magistrate knows everything about the Lu family's property.

"Tsk, what a conscienceless."

As the time passed, Lu Qiuzhi woke up leisurely.

"Help me! Help me! This is the trap of the magistrate! I was deceived by him! I never wanted to return to the court! ”

"Hurry! Help me! When the time comes, you can do whatever you want! ”

Lu Qiuzhi was bound and knelt on the torture platform, let go of his voice and shouted down.

The magistrate sat in the execution office, and when he heard the movement, he didn't stop it, and let Lu Qiuzhi call for someone to save him over and over again.

From the beginning to the end, no one came forward.

Everyone is afraid that this is a trap, and they are afraid that it is a bureau set up by the magistrate in order to find out who is more resistant to the imperial court.

And this is exactly the case, the magistrate does not stop it, but just wants to see who will stand up and save time for the next cleanup.

As for the people who came to see the excitement, they regarded him as a monster when they knew that Lu Qiuzhi ate human flesh, and now they are eager to kill him immediately.

"It's noon, execution!"

As the stick was thrown, the executioner's knife was raised high.

Lu Qiuzhi was so frightened that he had a handful of snot and tears, and when the people around him saw this, some watched excitedly, some clenched their fists and wished to become the executioner, and of course, some people didn't like the blood that spilled, so they quietly closed their eyes or turned their heads.

The broadsword began to fall, and in the midst of the pause in the breathing of the crowd, the blade was hit by a stone and deviated from its previous course.

There was a moment of silence.

However, in the next second, the executioner's chest was suddenly inserted with a hidden weapon, and he fell down in a voice of "protect the adults, someone robbed the law field".

There was chaos all around.

Gu Jiu looked at Shao Baisi in shock: "What are they doing with idle executioners?" ”

"Of course, it's because of killing people, causing commotion, and chaotic scenes are easier to rob people!"

With the current situation in Cloud City, as long as he succeeds in robbing people, within a week, Lu Qiuzhi will be completely whitewashed.

"Why are you stunned, hurry up and hide!"

"Oh yes, yes, the first time I saw this scene, I almost forgot about it."

The two hid in the corner, watching the people from the county and the people of the Lu family fighting inseparably.

"The purpose of the county is the same as ours."

Shao Baisi looked at the situation and said suddenly.

Gu Jiu nodded.

It stands to reason that as long as Lu Qiuzhi is dead, then Zhixian will be the winner.

But now the people of Zhixian County did not rush to kill Lu for knowledge, but ...... Trying to capture alive the people who came to rob the court.

Obviously, Lu Qiuzhi has been poisoned, and there is no need to worry about his possibility of survival. That's why the magistrate is in a hurry to catch newcomers and want to get some useful information out of their mouths.

"But he's thinking a little bit simpler."

The fight ended quickly, and Lu Qiuzhi was taken away. Although the magistrate succeeded in stopping a person, the person wiped his neck and committed suicide after determining that he could not escape.

"Can you remember?"

"Nature."

Unlike the county magistrate, Gu Jiu and Shao Baisi planned to remember each other's moves and take advantage of the chaos to infiltrate the Lu family.

Oh, I need to emphasize that it was Shao Baisi who got in, and she didn't have the ability.

"I'll go first."

"Okay."

After Shao Baisi left, Gu Jiu came out of the shadows and walked in the direction of Zhixian.

At this time, the magistrate was annoyed.

"My lord, why don't we go directly to the Lu family?"

The magistrate glanced at Gu Jiu and said helplessly: "You think this official doesn't want to, but how can he lead troops to search his home without evidence." ”

"Isn't that the proof?"

Gu Jiu pointed to the corpse on the ground and said. Anyway, people are dead, so that's their business.

The magistrate was stunned, and immediately took people to Lu's house after reacting.

"Hurry up! At this time, they had just returned, and they were caught off guard! ”

Shao Bai Si's speed was faster than Gu Jiu's, and when Zhixian and Gu Jiu arrived at Lu's house, Shao Bai Si had already taken advantage of the chaos to blend inside.

Standing in front of the gate of the Lu family again, recalling the gaze of that night, Gu Jiu took a deep breath, she wanted to see what was going on!
