Chapter 90

Just now the front yard was in chaos, and many girls in the Pingkang Pavilion gathered around Liusheng's bed, worried. It was obvious that Liu Sheng was very popular with the girls in the Pingkang Pavilion.

Since Cuiniang asked the maid beside her to invite her here, she obviously knew what happened in the front yard.

Yet she didn't seem to care.

Apart from being in the Shocui Tower that day, I have never had any contact with Cuiniang.

Then, she called herself here for only one thing, which was related to the previous assassination of Zhizhou in Shengcuilou.

Gu Yi had some calculations in his heart, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"I don't know Cuiniang before, so I really don't know why Cuiniang is looking for me. However, after the emerald building, I don't know if the arrow wound on Cuiniang's body has healed?"

On the day of Chen Zhi's birthday, besides Wang Qinruo and Chen Zhi, among the people shot by the arrow, there was also Cuiniang who stood at the head to toast Chen Zhi.

Gu Yi specifically mentioned this sentence, and smiled as he looked at Cuiniang and Xiaohong's master and servant who were slightly stagnant.

"Thanks to Mr. Xiaolang's concern, my family's injury has long been healed."

After only a moment's pause, Cui Niang suddenly smiled affectionately, her beautiful eyes lingering on Gu Yi.

"Xiao Langjun is not only talented, but also so sympathetic and caring. I don't know which little lady will be blessed to be Xiao Langjun's wife in the future..."

Gu Yi stepped back calmly, complaining to himself, are all the women in the Pingkang Hall so naked?
It was the first time he had come to this kind of place, and he was not familiar with it yet.

That being the case, don't blame me for being ruthless.Gu Yi took a deep breath, and looked at the two with burning eyes:

"Although the two ladies are women's generation, their loyalty is not inferior to that of men. Gu Yi is deeply impressed. The case of Shocuilou was to avoid people's eyes and ears, and also to secretly protect the real culprit, so I never asked anyone to interrogate the two ladies. Today Cuiniang called Gu Yi, if it is for this matter, the girl can rest assured, Gu Yi didn't say a word before today, and he will keep it tight in the future."

What he said showed that he knew that Cuiniang and Xiaohong were the accomplices in the assassination of Cui Niang, and also explained the reason why he didn't send people to arrest them, and he promised to stop this matter and he would never mention it.

Cuiniang and Xiaohong were stunned when they heard the words.

The door of the house was closed tightly, hot wind was blowing in from the window, the two women and a young man looked at each other silently, this scene was a bit weird.

"Young Master Gu is so kind, please accept Cui Niang's respect!"

As soon as Cui Niang put away her previous frivolous look, she solemnly bowed to Gu Yi, and then said again, "Young master is willing to help me, Cui Niang is very grateful, but..."

She looked at the door anxiously, and seeing that the door was closed, she said again: "Young master decides to hide the truth, do you know how much danger it will bring you?"

"This?"

Gu Yi was puzzled, he concealed the real culprit of the Zhugan murder case, but when he was investigating the Zhugan case, Master Wang had already withdrawn his investigation order.

In other words, he was not obliged to submit the subsequent investigation results to Wang Qinruo, so it was not a dereliction of duty.

However, Gu Yi really felt ashamed for pushing the entire assassination to Han Song who set up the incense burner poisoning bureau to poison Wang Qinruo to death and blame Xiaochen.

However, Gu Yi had no regrets about concealing the real culprit and letting the Changs and their daughters go.

But seeing Cui Niang's intentional reminder, Gu Yi did not dare to take it lightly, he cupped his hands and asked: "What does Cui Niang mean by this? Please explain clearly."

"Today, Mr. Wang is in Pingkang Pavilion. It is false to seek pleasure, but the secret discussion is true."

Cuiniang lowered her voice and spoke slowly.

"In addition to Mr. Wang and Lin Tongpan, there is also a man in his 50s and [-]s who is dressed as a businessman. The slave's family was waiting in front of Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang gave the businessman a letter and asked him to hand it over to the political advisor. Lord Ding, just when he was about to listen again, Lord Wang seemed to be on guard against the slave family and asked the slave family to leave the pavilion."

Hearing this, Gu Yi's expression became serious. The political adviser Cui Niang was talking about, Mr. Ding, was Ding Wei, an important official in the court. He and Wang Qinruo were friends in private, and it was not surprising that they had correspondence.

However, Gu Yi faintly sensed an unusual smell, and hurriedly asked: "Cui Niang must have known what they were talking about later, right?"

"My lord is smart." Xiaohong smiled and covered her face, "My girl had doubts in her heart, so she asked her servants to eavesdrop, and she heard them talking about the assassination in the Suocui Tower, saying that Gu Tixing was covering up the real culprit, wronging the good people, and treating the good people wrongly. Then Han Song has entered the capital and wants to report this matter to the heavens..."

Gu Yi was shocked.

He secretly investigated the real culprit. Except for Du Qingshan and Xiaochen, few people knew about it. How did Wang Ruoqin know that the real culprit was someone else?
At the beginning, Wang Qinruo withdrew his investigation order firmly, believing that it was Han Song who planned to kill him.

Although Gu Yi had doubts in his heart, he also adhered to the principle that more things are worse than less things, and he didn't want to offend Wang Qinruo, so he didn't break the casserole and ask the end.

Now, Wang Ruoqin wants to use this as an excuse to blame his father?
In the case of Han Song's assassination of an official by the imperial court, the memorial submitted by his father to Kaifeng has been approved.

Because Han Song was from Dali, and the matter was of great importance, the imperial court asked the Criminal Division of the Two Zhejiang Provinces to escort him to Kaifeng and hand Han Song over to the Kaifeng government for disposal.

From this point of view, Wang Qinruo's abacus was in full swing!

His influence in Kaifeng is intricate, and it is really a matter of raising his hands to use this to deal with his father.

Gu Yi only felt a sudden pain in his head, and he didn't know if it was from anger or from the injury on his forehead.

He solemnly bowed to Cui Niang to thank: "Thank you two ladies for reminding, but this matter is of great importance, the two ladies should not act rashly, just pretend that this matter never happened."

"I understand." Cui Niang tentatively asked, "Will the young master tell Wang Qinruo the real murderer?"

Gu Yi stared at her fixedly for a moment, this brothel woman fought with her body, in the towering emerald building, she also got a few arrows, which greatly dispelled his doubts about Xiao Hong, the watchman in the building, it can be said that she was not brave.

Knowing Wang Qinruo's abacus today, and deliberately inviting himself to tell the details, it is not unjust.

At this time, when they asked each other with worried faces, they were less worried about themselves than they were about others. This other person, I don't know if it was Chang's father and daughter, or Zhou Qiang.

Gu Yi sighed slightly in his heart, shook his head and said: "Cui Niang, don't worry, I will continue with the previous sentence. About the real murderer, Gu Yi didn't say a word before today, and he will keep his mouth shut in the future."

Cuiniang let go of her heart, and smiled sweetly, her eyes flickering, she was astonishingly beautiful.

"That's very grateful to the young master, but the young master should also be careful."

Gu Yi nodded, wanting to inform Gu Tixing of the matter as soon as possible, so he got up and hurriedly left Cuiniang's residence.

Xiaohong came to Cuiniang: "Girl, tell me, will Mr. Gu really keep his promise?"

"hope so."

Cuiniang sat down facing the mirror, the person in the mirror was wearing a yellow flower on her head, she was more delicate than a flower, but, after all, she was getting older...

"Has Zhou Lang never been here?"

"Yes." Xiaohong replied, "Yesterday I went to the Suocui Tower according to your instructions, but he blocked me back on the grounds that it was inconvenient to meet, girl, you—"

"Xiaohong." Cui Niang interrupted what Xiaohong was going to say next, and rubbed the center of her brows quite tiredly, "If I go again today, I will tell you something important—"

After a pause, Cui Niang lowered her eyes: "Forget it, don't go."

Since Mr. Gu Xiaolang is aware of this matter, he will handle it properly, so it is better not to worry Zhou Lang.
