Chapter 49
Gu Shen directly rejected Song Yinzhang's proposal to tear down the courtyard wall between the two houses.

Song Yinzhang was not discouraged, he still had a gentle, reserved and charming smile on his face.

She already knew Gu Shen's character, and guessed that Gu Shen would not agree. If Gu Shen had that unrestrained temperament, Song Yinzhang would not have such a proposal.

She felt that she had settled on Gu Shen, and the proposal to tear down the courtyard wall was just a talk.

The goal tonight has been achieved, she is very clear that if she wants to make Gu Shen fall in love, she must let him get to know her slowly, get to know her well, and let go of the resistance and guard in her heart.

This is a slow process, not a one-day effort.

She told Gu Shen her name, this was just the beginning of the first step in her plan.

Song Yinzhang stood up, saluted slightly, and said softly: "It's getting late, Mr. Gu should rest earlier, Yinzhang will take his leave first."

Let's go, Gu Shen stood up and said with a smile: "Everyone, Song, go slowly."

Song Yinzhang nodded lightly, picked up the pastry box on the counter, turned around and left slowly, shaking every step, it really had a special charm.

After Song Yinzhang left, Gu Shen came to the turned soil under the plane tree and stepped on it vigorously, and then went back to the main room to rest.

the next day.

Gu Shen's life is going on in an orderly manner, compared to before, there is only an extra episode of Song Yinzhang.

But one thing caught Gu Shen's attention.

Previously, Gu Shen ran into the guards of the Prince's Mansion who were robbing the women in the street. Gu Shen secretly attacked and killed the leader of the guards.

Afterwards, the imperial court turned the capital upside down, but did not find any trace of the master in the dark. Prince Zhao Shuang took his anger out on Jingzhou young hero Ren Qingcheng and the young girl Hu Xinger.

Ren Qingcheng was arrested and tortured to death in imperial prison, and Myolie Hu's family was killed.

Gu Shen has always kept this matter in his heart, thinking that one day he will get it back from that dog prince.

Originally thought that as the trace of the person who shot in the dark could not be found, the matter would be revealed.

Unexpectedly, the dog prince was so narrow-minded that he still sent people to investigate around.

"There is such a dog prince in the Dayin dynasty, it's no wonder he didn't die."

"Look it up, look it up, even if you dig three feet in the capital, you still can't find you, Uncle Gu."

Gu Shen complained in his heart.

The days passed by.

Ever since Gu Shen decided to take care of some criminals with his own hands, his speed of absorbing black matter doubled.

In the past, it was absorbed twice a day on average, but now it can absorb black matter four or five times a day.

It's just that the span from the first rank to the innate master is very large. Even though Gu Shen has improved rapidly, there is still a long way to go before the critical point of breakthrough.

With the improvement of realm, Gu Shen also deeply felt that the speed of improvement was far slower than before.

But this is also normal, after all, martial arts is like this, the higher the realm, the more difficult it will be to enter the realm.

"It would be great if the Imperial Prison would catch ten or eight upper third ranks every day." Gu Shen thought to himself.

But this can only be said to be a daydream, it is estimated that the top three masters in the entire Dayin dynasty will only break through a hundred, where can the prison go to catch so many first-class masters.

this day.

Another group of people entered the prison.

From Gu Shen's point of view, there are only two types of prisoners who go to prison, one is martial artists with martial arts skills, and the other is ordinary people who do not practice martial arts.

Gu Shen focuses on the former type. As for ordinary people who don't practice martial arts, in Gu Shen's eyes, even if the other party is a nobleman of the current dynasty or a relative of the emperor, they will not distract a little bit of energy.

There were four prisoners sent in in this batch, all of whom were middle-rank third-rank warriors, and Gu Shen noticed that among them, the strong man who was five big and three-thick had already stepped into third-rank with half a foot. There will be another third-rank master.

All four of them were imprisoned in No. B cells.

It is about the prisoners in the prison, and the news in the prison is always very well-informed.

After a simple inquiry, Gu Shen knew why these people were sent to jail.

The name of the strong man with five big and three thick is Geng Dapeng, and he is a senior official of the second rank.

This matter also starts from the conflict between Geng Dapeng and Zhang He, the prefect of Liaoxi County.

Zhang He's ancestral home was in Changshan, Jizhou. He was a rare upright official and a well-known filial son. He passed the imperial examinations in the early years of Emperor Xuanhe, but failed many times. However, with his fame and the recommendation of local officials in Changshan County, Zhang He also came out. After becoming an official, he went from the county magistrate to the county magistrate, and then became the sheriff of a county.

This place in the west of Liaoning borders the Yuan Dynasty in the north. Its affairs are complicated and difficult to govern. In particular, the local garrison is very brutal. Many county magistrates in Liaoxi County have been humiliated by the garrison.

After Zhang He took office as the governor of Liaoxi County, he strictly enforced the law and followed the rules, so that the local people could live in peace.

However, Zhang He's actions violated the interests of Geng Dapeng, the general of Youzhou. After being captured, Geng Dapeng came forward to intercede, but Zhang He was unmoved.

This angered Geng Dapeng, he directly sent troops to surround the county guard's mansion, robbed the illegal businessman, broke the shackles himself, and whipped Zhang He on the pretext of other things.

Zhang He couldn't bear it anymore, he listed Geng Dapeng's many illegal acts one by one, and directly wrote to Emperor Chongning for impeachment.

But someone was quicker. Geng Dapeng, the villain, filed a complaint first, and sent warriors to write a complaint on horseback, impeaching Zhang He for embezzling the national taxes and grains collected by Liaoxi County.

Nowadays, anti-flags are erected all over the world, and the imperial army is suppressing the rebellion in various places. When money and food are in short supply, Emperor Chongning, who first received Geng Dapeng's memorial, was furious. He didn't send anyone to investigate, so he completely believed Geng Dapeng's complaint, so An envoy was sent to order Zhang He to be killed in Liaoxi County.

But not long after the envoy left, Emperor Chongning received a memorial from Zhang He.

Comparing the two memorials, it is obvious that what Zhang He said is true and Geng Dapeng is purely a false accusation.

Geng Dapeng’s false accusation against Zhang He was second. What really made Emperor Chongning furious was that Zhang He’s memorial sued Geng Dapeng and local profiteers in western Liaoning to manipulate grain prices and embezzled a lot of money and grain during the grain collection process.

In addition to these crimes, Geng Dapeng also received a lot of empty salary. Many armies in Youzhou are so-called "empty shell troops" in name only, but the imperial court pays these people every year. into Geng Dapeng's pocket.

After seeing Zhang He's impeachment of Geng Dapeng, Emperor Chongning almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Although Emperor Chongning was not a Ming emperor, he also knew that the Dayin Dynasty needed upright officials and loyal officials, and Zhang He was known as an upright official, so he hurriedly sent another envoy to call back the first wave of envoys who killed Zhang He.

Although the second wave of envoys rushed to Liaoxi with all their strength, it was still a step late. When the second envoy arrived in Liaoxi, Zhang He had already been killed.

The local people in western Liaoning missed Zhang He very much, and set up memorial tablets for Zhang He at home.

When Emperor Chongning learned that Zhang He had been killed, he was very regretful, but also very angry, so he sent the supervisory censor and Gu Yifan to Fusi Town, Sinan Town, Sinan Town, the Imperial City, to Liaoxi County to arrest Geng Dapeng and his accomplices.

Geng Dapeng's ancestor was a hero who founded the country, and was once granted an iron certificate to avoid death by Emperor Dayin Taizu. According to the regulations, he could not be put to death without treason, but Emperor Chongning was extremely annoyed by Geng Dapeng's crime of deceiving the king. He was sent down to imperial prison, and a secret decree was passed down, ordering the Imperial City Secretary to kill Geng Dapeng and his accomplices as soon as possible.

"This Geng Dapeng has done a lot of evil, he should die early and help me practice."

It can be said that the secret decree of Emperor Chongning hit Gu Shen's heart, making him eager to sharpen his knife and rush at the pigs and sheep.
