Chapter 121

Earth-shaking changes happened quietly, like black clouds invaded the hearts of many people, but, unlike the dark clouds in the hearts of many people, the summer sun finally broke through the thick clouds at noon today, Sprinkled on the surface of the clear river water, sparkling, the water waves are not clear...

On such a river, an inconspicuous solitary boat slowly returned, and two plain-clothed, unobtrusive people disembarked from the boat. ... They drove away slowly and leisurely without knowing it.

This gray carriage shuttled on a secluded street in the capital city. The trees on both sides of the street are densely shaded. Although summer has arrived, the catkins in spring are still floating in the summer like snowflakes for some reason. on the road...

Gu Shu was not used to riding in a carriage with Qi Zhaoyang, so Gu Shu quietly lifted the curtain of the carriage, and Qi Zhaoyang noticed Gu Shu's small movements, and did not speak, following Gu Shu's wishes.

Gu Shu looked at the scenery outside the curtain. On the top of the dense trees, there were delicate clouds intertwined with colorful flowers, and under the shade of the trees were the blue-gray walls of houses or several vermilion doors.

This kind of scenery is very common in the capital, and Gu Shu has almost seen too much in the past, but today Gu Shu is very greedy for this kind of scenery, until the gray carriage stopped at a road near the back door of Duke Yan's mansion. In the alley, Gu Shu looked away.

…………

Gu Shu bid farewell to Qi Zhaoyang, and wanted to go back to her courtyard quietly, but found that the courtyards of all the people in Duke Yan's mansion were tightly closed, and even on the road, except for a few servants who cleaned, there was no one else. The servants who come and go...

Gu Shu immediately guessed that something big must have happened. Then, she couldn't help speeding up her pace and ran back to her yard to find out what happened...

And just as Gu Shu guessed, a major event that can be called "the sky is falling" did occur in the Duke of Yan's mansion, and at this moment, the central vortex of this event is gathering in Gu Ruosu's Hefeng Hall. to be able to disperse...

Gu Ruosu's Hefengtang is like the morning of the 15th day of the junior high, gathering the daughters-in-law and a few older children from each house, but the difference is that the faces of the daughters-in-law and children in each house are worried and wrinkled. frowning...

The most exaggerated thing is that for some reason, Gu Ruosu's fifth daughter-in-law, Wei Shi, who has always been the most carefree, is kneeling at Gu Ruosu's feet with snot and tears, hugging Gu Ruosu's thigh like a Like a life-saving straw, weeping mournfully...

"Mother...Mother...you must let father save Shiro..."

"Grandmother... I beg you to find a way to save father... Father is honest and honest, he must not dare to do such a thing... Grandmother..."

"Mother...Yihua is right...Although Shiro is not as talented as his father and elder brother, Shiro has always been a good boy who is loyal and filial...How dare he risk human life? ..."

"..."

"..."

Wei Shi and Xie Yihua almost fainted from crying at Gu Ruosu's feet at this moment, and Gu Ruosu is also the first two...

She had just finished her lunch, and before she had time to take a lunch break, she was "received" by Hai Shi and others to sit in the main hall, and then came... Wei Shi pulled Xie Yihua into an inexplicable embrace. crying on her lap...

"Don't cry, don't cry, you two should tell me what happened first...

Otherwise... why do you want me to save... I just want to save lives... I don't know where to start..." Gu Ruosu listened to Wei Shi and Xie Yihua's crying, and was always confused, but he also understood that there must be Something big happened, so Gu Ruosu could only sigh, and said to Wei Shi and Xie Yihua.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wei immediately understood that her husband might be saved, so she stopped crying and said sadly:

"Mother, just now the Governor of Kyoto sent someone to report, saying that it was an envoy from the Nanman mission, that a noble Nanman royal family died in the Yushuxuan inexplicably."

"What does that have to do with Shiro? Shiro has just returned to Beijing. Although the errand he received has real power, it is in the Ministry of Industry and has nothing to do with the Ministry of Rites. It is not the officials who greeted the Nanman mission this time. A Nanman died. The royal family, could it be that we, Shiro, were the ones who failed to kill them!"

"That's exactly the case, mother, mother, you are so good at predicting things, that's what the official of the prefect of Kyoto who came to report said so!"

Hearing this, Gu Ruosu stood up from the chair in surprise, and said in disbelief:
"What! What's going on! Why did the fourth child of our family get involved in the murder case? What did the official say? Tell me verbatim!"

"The official said that when the Nanman royal family died, they died in the elegant room on the second floor of Yushuxuan, which was a secret room...No one could enter except Shiro who was with the Nanban royal family...

Moreover, the official also said that when the shop owner broke in with someone, the door was locked from the inside, the windows were closed, and our Shiro and that dead Nanman lay unconscious on the ground. royal……

The most important thing is... that Nanban royal family died after being stabbed through the chest with a dagger... That murderous dagger is still held in the hands of our family Shiro...

Mother!You must save Shiro!Shiro must have been slandered by others!Shiro and the Nanman royal family have no grievances, how could they kill people...Mother..." Wei tried not to cry and explained the ins and outs of this matter clearly. In the end, she couldn't help it, and continued to cry ...

When Gu Ruosu heard these words, he didn't care about Wei's crying and making a fuss, and sat back in his seat again. After thinking for a long time, he asked Xie Yihua:
"Your father is also an official. Although he hasn't been back to Beijing for a long time, they should know something about him... When the people from the prefect of the capital city came to arrest your father, besides these ins and outs, they also said What happened, do you know?"

Xie Yihua wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, nodded and said:
"I was listening to the news with my mother at the time, and the person did say something else...

I remember... the lord said that after his father woke up, he tried his best to deny the murder, and only said that he and the Nanman royal family came together because they both loved documents... The meeting was in Yushu Xuan...it was because he heard that Yushuxuan had obtained a single copy that he wanted to meet Yushuxuan...what happened to this matter, my father said he didn't know..."

"That's all? But what else?"

Xie Yihua thought for a while and said: "The official also said that when the incident happened, many people saw it... When the people from the capital city governor arrived, they had already surrounded Yushuxuan tightly...

Later... the people from the governor of the capital city really couldn't get in. Finally... they borrowed soldiers from General Chen Yu and opened the way to take away the corpse of the Nanman royal family and his father... Now... his father has died I'm in a prison in Kyoto Prefecture..."

After hearing these words, Gu Ruosu felt less anxious...

Immediately, Gu Ruosu immediately asked Bi Lan, Mo Lu and a few women to help Wei Shi and Xie Yihua, who were crying so hard that they couldn't help themselves, back to their seats. After watching the mother and daughter sit down, she said:
"Don't cry... In my opinion... the fourth child should be fine... After a while, he will come back whole..."

When Wei Shi, Xie Yihua and others heard this, they immediately raised their heads and looked at Gu Ruosu. Among them, Hai Shi, who had been sitting in his seat, suddenly asked:
"Mother, how did this happen... This governor of Kyoto is a stern and selfless person... Come to think of it, it's rare for our family to use relationships..."

"It's good to be stern and selfless, and only stern and selfless can handle this case well.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see this matter, someone must have deliberately framed it for the fourth child.

The fourth child is a scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken, and he has no deep hatred with that Nanman royal family. What to kill him for, but someone saw that the agreement between your father-in-law and the Nanman mission was about to be reached, and wanted to sabotage it. Fourth brother, this is nothing more than a random disaster, come to think of it... As long as your father-in-law doesn't have an accident, nothing will happen to Shiro..."

"Then mother, since this is clearly framed, why did you arrest Shiro... Isn't Shiro suffering in vain..." Hearing this, Mrs. Wei silently put away her tears, with tears in her eyes asked.

"Since that person deliberately framed him, he naturally wanted to do everything possible to drag Shiro into it.
Didn't Yihua just say that when the governor of Kyoto led people to arrive, the Yushuxuan was surrounded by people, and in the end, he even got in with the help of the army.

The incident is so big that many people in the capital are watching it. For the sake of justice and the diplomatic relations between the two countries, even if the governor of the capital thinks that the fourth child of our family is innocent, he must be arrested. What Chengfu Yin did was also justifiable. "

"From my mother's point of view, when will this Shiro come back?" After hearing Gu Ruosu's words, Wei finally felt a little relieved in her heart, but she still asked very worriedly.

"It depends on when this matter comes to light.

After all, even if the person who died was a commoner, he would have to be interrogated in three courts, let alone a noble Nanman royal family.

Come to think of it, the Nanman people and those who deliberately want to sabotage the cooperation between Nanman and Dayong are not willing to let go easily. "

"Then if...the capital governor can't find out the ins and outs of the matter, wouldn't this fourth uncle be in prison forever." Rushi asked suddenly.

"This...if that's the case...it's impossible to think about it...

But in my opinion, the governor of the capital city is able to sit firmly as the leader of the governor of the capital city. Thinking about it, he has some abilities... You don't have to worry too much..."

"Mother, how can we not worry about this... How many people wish that our Xie family will fall down like this!

How can we understand the twists and turns of those people...

Mother... Shiro is the most filial to you, please help Shiro beg his father... as long as his father is willing to come forward, then Shiro will be able to get out of prison temporarily..." As soon as Gu Ruosu finished speaking, Wei Shi was anxious said roaringly.

"How many people are staring at your father now... If your father asked to release him at this time, those Nanman people didn't believe that our Xie family would really kill the Nanman royal family, but they would become 100% suspicious ...

For a long time, only those with a guilty conscience would rush to take action..." Although Gu Ruosu didn't understand government and opposition politics, but his mind was clear, and when he recalled what happened recently, he understood the thoughts of those who secretly plotted , So, shaking his head, he comforted him.

"This... but... mother... what happened to us in Dayong, the southern barbarians have no choice but to deal with it... Wouldn't it be nice to have an explanation... If it really doesn't work... let my father come forward, Let them give Shiro another place to stay...

House arrest!House arrest is fine...the dungeon of the governor of the capital city is not a good place..." Mrs. Wei said still unwillingly...

"Fourth daughter-in-law, you don't have to worry. The eldest children came here with your father to endure hardships. They are not so delicate, but if you really love him, you don't have to ask your father to come forward and change the cell... "

Before Gu Ruosu finished speaking, she was interrupted by the silent second daughter-in-law Song Shi:
"My mother didn't think about these things. The governor of the capital city is stern and selfless, and many high-ranking officials and dignitaries have been involved...

The fourth younger siblings wanted to ask their father for help this time because their father had worked with this lord Fuyin before, but if it was your mother, you go... If you want to change the cell, then the lord Fuyin might not give this sloppy face...

But it's also...fourth uncle is not the sixth brother after all, he just got a little bit of prison, think about it...it's not going to bother mother and father..."

Mrs. Song's words were almost sowing discord, and everyone who heard them frowned, but Mrs. Wei, who was already dazed by worry at the moment, didn't react. Instead, she felt that Mrs. Song's words were quite reasonable...

Gu Ruosu is biased... If it was her own blood, she must have gone to her father-in-law for help!

The more Wei thought about it, the more depressed she became, and she couldn't listen to Gu Ruosu's explanation at the moment. Fortunately, before the moment when Wei's emotions broke out completely, Xie Yihua hurriedly pressed Wei's hand, and whispered to her:

"Mother! Don't get mad, this is sowing discord! Grandma is not that kind of person! If you fall out with grandma! Daddy is really hopeless..."

As soon as Wei Shi heard about the safety of Xie Hao's family, she immediately came back to her senses, calmed down, and finally did not fall into the pit dug by these "good sisters-in-law"...

On the contrary, when Gu Ruosu said, "I will let people clear up the relationship, save Xie Haojia from suffering, and send someone to find out the truth secretly", under Xie Yihua's arrangement, he respectfully kneels down to Gu Ruosu He got down, kowtowed, and thanked Gu Ruosu for his dedication...

The crowd refused to disperse in Hefengtang for a long time, even though Mrs. Wei was forcibly sent back by Xie Yihua because she couldn't cry herself, Song and others still took root in Hefengtang like a needle of Dinghai, pretending to be worried about Xie Hao's family The pretense refuses to dissipate...

It wasn't until Xie Ruqing came in from outside the house...the group of people were willing to disperse...
