"My lord, just because of such a trivial matter, you have been fined for half a year, it is better to abandon this seven-grade sesame official and go to the rivers and lakes" Tian Boguang looked at Gu Jianfei's bitter gourd face and encouraged.

"I think what Brother Tian said is reasonable, Brother Gu, you are still invited by the six doors, and there is a letter from Lord Zhang Juzheng, so you were fined for half a year," Xia Xueyi said.

"Brother Xia, Boguang, I also want to laugh at the rivers and lakes, but my father's hope in life is to be an official and glorify my ancestors, if I give up this official position, I won't make my father angry" Gu Jianfei smiled bitterly with a bitter gourd face.

It turned out that after Gu Jianfei tried the medicine that day, he and Xia Xueyi and Tian Boguang hurried back to Hengyang County, just arrived at the county government and didn't wait to drink saliva, the cause handed over an official document from the ministry, it turned out that Yan Song participated in Gu Jianfei's book, saying that Gu Jianfei had no political achievements and left his post without permission, Zhang Juzheng of course couldn't look at Yan Song being there blindly, so he said to the old emperor that it was six doors to ask Gu Jianfei to assist in the investigation.

At this time, the God of Capture took out the ancient sword and flew to Lu Xiaofeng to bring the letter to the God of Catcher: "Your Majesty, the ancient county order investigated the Tsing Yi Building this time, successfully exterminated the Tsing Yi Building, and investigated the Jinpeng Kingdom in the Western Regions.

The old emperor was originally unhappy with Gu Jianfei, although Gu Jianfei wiped out the Tsing Yi Building and found the treasures of Jinpeng State, but the old emperor was just unhappy, so he said that Gu Jianfei was not worth the penalty for half a year. As a result, Gu Jianfei's finances worsened.

"My lord, do you want to take out the county government inventory first to solve the need" After saying this, the master flew towards the ancient sword.

"Ahem, master, then Yan Song is staring at me now, to see if I made a mistake, fortunately, I have a copy" Gu Jianfei smiled bitterly, and after speaking, he took out the last ten taels of silver on his body and handed it to the master, "Save these ten taels of silver for a few days."

"Boguang, now I can only rely on you" Gu Jianfei stared at Tian Boguang and said.

"My lord, you say, let me go to a big house to get some" Tian Boguang said unceremoniously.

Gu Jianfei's face was gloomy, and he slapped Tian Boguang on the back of the head, "You bastard, who told you to go to a big family in the city to steal" Gu Jianfei scolded.

"What do you mean," Tian Boguang said cautiously, covering the back of his head.

"You are fast, I will write a letter, you send it to my house in Hangzhou, let my father bring you a thousand taels of silver, and then come back quickly" Gu Jianfei said angrily to Tian Boguang.

"Oh, I see, no problem, my lord, I'll be back in five days," Tian Boguang said.

At this time, the official outside the door reported that "My lord, someone came to beat the drum to report the case".

"Oh, Xue Yi, master, you go out and have a look first, I'll arrive after I finish writing the letter" Gu Jianfei said to the two of them, and quickly wrote the letter and handed it to Tian Boguang.

In the hall of the county government, the master shouted "Adults are here", and the officials on both sides shouted "mighty". Gu Jianfei sat in the public hall and patted the wooden road, "Who is the plaintiff who knelt down?"

I saw an old woman dressed as a noble lady about forty years old in the hall and said, "My lord, the little woman Xiao Bai is the plaintiff."

Gu Jianfei saw that the old woman in the hall said that it was the plaintiff, so he looked at the very young woman dressed as a woman on the other side. I saw that although the woman was well dressed, her face was a little red and swollen, and her sleeves seemed to have some footprints. Gu Jianfei looked at the old woman again and said, "What are you going to sue this defendant?"

"The little woman sued this slut for murdering her husband," Xiao Bai scolded as he pointed at the young woman.

"Oh, defendant, you can murder your own husband," Gu Jianfei frowned.

"My lord, the little woman has been wronged," cried the young woman.

"When the old man came back last night, he was still fine, and he was poisoned while resting in your room, and you still said it wasn't you," the old woman stood up and pointed at the young woman and scolded.

"Bold, when your family is here, you dare to roar in the court" Gu Jianfei slapped Tang Mu and said angrily.

"Little woman doesn't dare," the old woman saw Gu Jianfei furious, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Your Excellency. The little woman was wronged, last night the little woman and the old man had dinner and suddenly their eyes went dark, and the next morning they woke up to find that the old man had been poisoned and died," the young woman said.

"Your Excellency can take the defendant into custody first, and then go to the scene to investigate," the master whispered in Gu Jianfei's ear.

Gu Jianfei nodded, and then said to the officials on both sides, "Take the defendant into custody first."

After the officials on both sides pressed down the young woman who was shouting for injustice, Gu Jianfei said to the old woman, "Lead the way for this official and go to see the scene of your master's death".

Xiao Mansion in the city, "My lord, this is the scene of my master," Xiao Mansion housekeeper said.

Gu Jianfei was a little strange when he saw the layout of the venue, but there was no problem with the layout of this room, the problem was that nothing in the whole room was destroyed, only the body of this old man Xiao fell to the ground with a bruised face, and even the wine and food on the table were intact.

"My lord, there is no poison in the wine and food" Xia Xueyi took the silver and flew towards the ancient sword.

Gu Jianfei nodded and said to him, "Check it out."

"Yes, my lord" After speaking, he began to examine the corpse, and after a while, the master said to the ancient sword, "My lord, I was indeed poisoned and died, and the time of disappointment was last night, and there were no wounds on my body."

After finishing speaking, Gu Jianfei frowned and said, "Bring the entity back to the county government first," turned his head to the housekeeper and said, "Doesn't your lord have any heirs?"

"If you are an adult, the lord has a son, and the second lady is already happy," the housekeeper said.

"Oh, since you have an heir, why don't you see your son-in-law here," Gu Jianfei said angrily.

"My lord, my son-in-law fainted from crying because of the violent death of my master," the housekeeper hurriedly said.

"Then you will lead the official to visit your son-in-law," Gu Jian Fei said.

"Yes, my lord, please come with me," the butler finished speaking, leading Gu Jianfei and Xia Xueyi to Xiao Gongzi's room.

When he came to Xiao Gongzi's room, Gu Jianfei heard that this Xiao Gongzi was pretending to be dizzy when he saw Xiao Gongzi, and Gu Jianfei looked at this Xiao Gongzi a little familiar. Gu Jianfei nodded silently and said, "Xue Yi, go back to the county government first."

After returning to the county office, Gu Jianfei and Xia Xueyi came to the morgue, and Gu Jianfei beckoned him and said, "Take off the corpse's clothes first, and check it."

"Yes, my lord," he said, and began to examine the corpse again, and after checking the front of the corpse, he turned the back of the corpse over.

At this time, Xia Xueyi shouted, "Don't move yet", I saw Xia Xueyi come to the corpse, groped around the corpse vest for a while, turned his head and said to Gu Jianfei, "My lord, there is something in the corpse vest."

"Oh, I'll take a look" Gu Jianfei came to the corpse and touched the corpse vest, thinking that there was really something, and with a suck of internal force, he sucked out the thing in the corpse's vest, which turned out to be a silver needle, and the silver needle was jet black. Gu Jianfei knew that it was this silver needle that wanted the life of this old man Xiao, at this time, Gu Jianfei glanced at it, and found that the flesh on the lower right side of the corpse's neck was blue, and it seemed that the corpse was first knocked unconscious and then pierced into the poison needle.

Gu Jianfei found out about this, so he said to Xia Xueyi: "Xueyi, you go and investigate the Xiao Bai clan."

"Yes, my lord," Xia Xueyi finished speaking and went out to investigate.

"Master, go and see if the second lady's neck is cyan," Gu Jianfei commanded to the master.

The next day, in the lobby of the official mansion, Gu Jianfei sat down and patted the wooden road "ascending to the hall", and the officials on both sides shouted "mighty".

Gu Jianfei "took the plaintiff and the defendant".

After a while, Xiao Bai's family, Xiao Gongzi and the housekeeper were taken to Gu Jianfei's left hand side to kneel, and the young second lady knelt on the right hand side. Gu Jianfei saw that the people had arrived, so he said loudly: "The bold plaintiff Xiao Bai dared to murder his husband, what crime should he be guilty of, and he didn't invite it quickly."

Gu Jianfei's words not only stunned the three of Xiao Bai's family, but even the officials were stunned, and the people outside the yamen were even more in an uproar. At this time, the plaintiff Xiao Baishi said, "My lord, the woman is the plaintiff, my lord was poisoned and murdered by this slut, how can the adult wronged a good person."

"Hmph, according to this official's investigation, the day before the deceased's death, you had a quarrel with the deceased, and the deceased was poisoned and died the next day, what is your explanation?"

"My lord, how can there be a husband and wife who don't quarrel, just because of this, it is said that the folk woman poisoned her husband?" Xiao Bai said.

"Yes, my lord, my lord died in the second lady's room, didn't the second lady kill the lord, did the eldest lady kill him," the housekeeper said.

"That's right, your master was not killed by the eldest lady, but by you," Gu Jianfei stared at the housekeeper and said.

"What, I killed the master, don't wronged the good people, the lord is so kind to me, why should I kill the master" The housekeeper said hurriedly.

"Why did you kill your master?hehe, of course your master discovered the secret between you and the eldest lady," Gu Jianfei said.

"What is my secret with the eldest lady" The butler's forehead was covered with sweat.

"Officially, this secret will be your master's quarrel with the eldest lady, because this Xiao Gongzi is not your master's son at all, but your housekeeper's son," Gu Jianfei said.

"Wen'er is the son of my lord, don't tarnish the reputation of the people's wife," the eldest lady quibbled.

"Hehe, whether this Xiao Gongzi is the son of your master or not is not up to you, you can take a look at the appearance of this Xiao Gongzi and the housekeeper," Gu Jianfei said lightly.

"Wow, really, this Xiao Gongzi and the housekeeper are like each other, it's just carved out of a mold," said the people outside the yamen.

"What else do you guys have to say," Gu Jian Fei said.

"Do you say that Childe is my son just because he looks like him?" quibbled the butler
