Chapter 214: Arrests

At Zhilan Academy not far from Fangcaotang, Wang Yi suddenly pointed to the sky, "It's on fire!"
Gu Jiu heard the sound and hurried out of the house.
I saw the direction of Fangcaotang, thick smoke billowing.
"Quickly put out the fire, go to the outer courtyard and call for someone."
After speaking, Gu Jiu rushed out first.
At the entrance of Fangcaotang, the maids cried and screamed, at a loss.
Gu Jiu grabbed a maid, "What's the matter?"
The maid cried and said, "Four girls, the fourth girls have not come out yet."
Gu Jiu's face changed.
How to save people from such a big fire.
"Slaves go in and save people."
Wang Yi took the initiative to stand up.
Gu Jiu yelled, "Hurry up and get a quilt and another bucket of water."
The quilt and water are all ready.
Wang Yi draped the quilt on his body, and Gu Jiu carried the bucket, all on the quilt.
She told Wang Yi, "Pay attention to safety. If it doesn't work, come out quickly."
Wang Yi nodded his head, "The slave and maid knows."
After speaking, Wang Yi took a deep breath and rushed into the Fang Caotang.
"Woo...my girl will be fine, right."
Fang Caotang's maids were crying, all of them looked shocked and scared.
Gu Jiu angrily scolded, "Shut up all to me. Tell me, what's the matter? It's dry, watch out for fire candles, don't you know? Why is there a fire? Tell me why?"
"The servants don't know! When I get back to my senses, the fire is already burning. The second girl, it's really not about the servants!"
Gu Jiu sternly said, "You don't care about your business, then I ask you, where does the fire start? You always know this, right."
"It was burned from the main house, the servants can be sure."
"The four girls failed to come out. If there is a case, the slave and maid will not survive."
The maids all cried again.
Seeing that Gu Jiu couldn't ask more, he didn't bother to pay attention to them.
News of the fire spread throughout the whole province in an instant.
More and more people came to Fangcaotang.
The steward Gu Quan organized a manual fire extinguishing.
When I heard that Gu Shan was still inside, he stomped with anger.
Xie rushed to her in shock, and immediately wailed loudly when she learned that Gu Shan had not been rescued. He picked up a bamboo strip and pulled it to the maids of Fang Caotang.
"The four girls didn't come out, why do you have the face to run out. I tell you, if the four girls are three long and two short, I will let you bury them."
"It's out, it's out."
The young lady who put out the fire screamed.
Wang Yi rushed out holding a person.
Seeing this, Xie immediately rushed forward, "Is it Shan'er? Shan'er, are you okay?"
It was Gu Shan who Wang Yi rescued. She said, "The four girls are still angry."
After speaking, I have to rush inside again.
Gu Jiu stopped her, "What's the matter?"
Wang Yi said, "There are still people inside."
What, there are people?
"It's Hongling, Hongling is still inside."
Hongling is Gu Shan's maid.
Xiao Si stopped Wang Yi, "Don't go in, let us in."
The young man took the quilt from Wang Yi's body, poured water on it, and rushed in.
Xie cried with Gu Shan in his arms, "Come on, call the doctor."
"Don't worry, younger brothers and sisters, they have already sent someone to call the doctor."
The eldest wife Zhang came to Fangcaotang with her elder and grandmother Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang said: "Second aunt, don't worry, we have sent someone to the Yamen to report to the second uncle. I believe the second uncle will be back soon."
Gu Jiu sternly walked towards Gu Shan who was unconscious.
Mother Fang grabbed Gu Jiu and shook her head slightly.
Gu Jiu whispered: "Don't worry, mother, I know what I'm doing."
Mother Fang hesitated, and did not stop Gu Jiu again.
Gu Jiu stepped forward and first stretched out his hand to check his pulse.
The pulse is weak, but it is not a major problem.
It seems that Gu Shan has not inhaled much smoke and dust.
Wait, the hair behind Gu Shan's head is condensed.
Gu Jiu stretched out his hand to separate his hair for inspection.
Xie suddenly yelled at her: "Stop! What do you want to do? What is your intention?"
Gu Jiu said blankly: "The fourth sister has an injury on the back of her head, as if she had been hit by someone."
"what did you say?"
"Brother sister, put Shan'er down quickly."
The eldest wife Zhang gave an order, and the women pulled Gu Shan out of Xie's arms and put them on a stretcher.
Xie cried loudly, "What are you going to do to Shan'er? What do you want to do?"
Zhang's comforted Xie's.
Gu Jiu took the opportunity to examine Gu Shan's wound, which was indeed a hit.
Maybe this is the real reason for Gu Shan's unconsciousness.
A little maid came to Shaoyao to talk.
As Peony listened, his face changed.
She hurriedly came to the eldest wife Zhang, "Mrs. Qizhen, when someone saw a fire, the third girl came out of Fangcaotang."
The eldest wife Zhang's face was taken aback, "Did you read it wrong?"
Shaoyao shook his head, "It should be correct."
The eldest wife Zhang gritted her teeth, "Grab all the maids in Fangcaotang and try them one by one. At the same time, they will send someone to find out Gu Yue."
"Slaves obey orders."
Xie clan stared at Zhang clan, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Are you suspecting that this matter has anything to do with Yue'er? What are you talking about?"
The eldest wife Zhang's face was stern, "Are you talking nonsense? I will know after asking."
At this time, the rescuer came out.
The maid Hongling was rescued.
Gu Jiu stepped forward to check, he was not dead, and he was still breathing. But too much smoke was inhaled.
Gu Jiu was thinking about what prescription to prescribe, Qingmei pulled Xiaocui to her side.
"Girl, it's amazing. Xiaocui just got a big news, you promise to be surprised when you hear it."
Gu Jiu looked at Xiao Cui, "What news?"
Xiaocui stammered nervously.
Mother Fang patted her back, and she regained her composure.
After Xiao Cui returned to normal, she hurriedly said: "When someone saw a fire, the third girl came out of Fangcaotang. Now I can't find the third girl, it is likely that the fire was set by the third girl."
"Gu Yue set fire?" Gu Jiu frowned.
Xiao Cui nodded heavily, "It's true. The eldest wife has sent someone to find the third girl."
Gu Jiu asked, "Are you sure the three girls are not in the room?"
Xiao Cui nodded again.
Gu Jiu took the handkerchief and wiped his hands, "Go, let me go to Zizhu Courtyard to see."
Zizhu Courtyard is the courtyard where Gu Yue lives, very close to Fangcaotang.
Mother Fang asked Gu Jiu in a whisper, "Does the girl suspect that the third girl is hiding inside?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "There is this suspicion. It's not that neither the back door nor the second door saw Gu Yue go out. Gu Yue either hid in Zizhu Courtyard or hid in..."
Gu Jiu turned his head and looked at the garden in the distance, "Or just hide in the garden. Let's search the Zizhu Courtyard first."
Gu Yue even dared to hurt people and set fires. She really ate the courage of the bear heart and leopard.
Doesn't she know the consequences of doing this?
Don’t you know that once she is discovered, she is also finished?
Shaoyao is leading a search in Zizhuyuan.
Seeing Gu Jiu, she stepped forward to salute, "I saw the second girl. Why did the second girl come?"
"Sister Shaoyao, have you found Gu Yue?"
Shaoyao shook his head, "I haven't found it yet."
"I'll take a look casually, and I won't delay sister Shaoyao."
"Second girl, please."
Gu Jiu came to the study and flipped through the books on the desk.
Most of the books are brand new. Obviously, Gu Yue doesn't like to read books.
But one of the house rules has been turned upside down.
Thinking that Gu Yue had been fined several times for copying house rules, Gu Jiu understood.
She flipped through the house rules at will, and was surprised by the contents.
The words ‘dead’, like a knife, shone with a sharp cold light.
How much hatred and anger had to accumulate in Gu Yue's heart to write so many dead words.
From the neatness in the front to the scribbles in the back, the pen is getting heavier and heavier, representing Gu Yue's repressed negative emotions, accumulating more and more.
Finally, today, Gu Yue burst out suddenly without knowing what stimulation he had received.
Gu Jiu picked up the book and gave it to Qingmei, "Take it away. Let's go to the garden."
Mother Fang followed her and whispered: "Girl, Gu Yue is very dangerous at the moment. The girl should stay away."
Gu Jiu nodded, "I know, thank you Madam for reminding me. I will stay away from her."
Gu Yue hurt Gu Shan and set him on fire. It might be a moment of passion.
At this moment, Gu Yue hid like a bird with a bow. She didn't regret not knowing it later, but she must be terrified.
There are many people in the garden, and the butler Gu Quan personally leads them to search for Gu Yue's whereabouts.
The back door and the second door were definitely not seeing Gu Yue, so Gu Yue was probably hiding in the garden.
Xiao Zhang stared at the searcher, "Every place must be searched, and the three girls must be found."
"Why is Sister-in-law here?" Gu Jiu asked.
Seeing Gu Jiu, Xiao Zhang's expression eased a lot, "Second sister is here. You should have heard about it."
Gu Jiu nodded, "I heard."
Xiao Zhang said: "Whether it is Gu Yue's fire or not, the most urgent task must be to find people out. I am too late, I am worried that there will be accidents."
"Sister-in-law bothered."
Xiao Zhang shook his head, "I should do it all. The second sister might as well go back to the room and wait for the news."
"No, I'm still waiting here."
Gu Jiu observes the surrounding situation.
She often comes to the garden, but her favorite place is the flower garden, other places are not so familiar.
Xiaocui secretly told Gu Jiu, "Girl, the slave girl knows that there is a small cave in the rockery, do you think the third girl will hide in it?"
Gu Jiu said, "Let's go over and take a look."
Gu Jiu brought people to the rockery.
Xiao Si has searched the rockery and found no one.
Xiao Cui and Wang Yi asked for orders, "The girl, the slave and the maidservant go in first to check, you are waiting outside for news."
"You pay attention to safety."
Wang Yi laughed, "Don't worry, the girl, there are slaves, and the three girls can't hurt anyone."
Xiao Cui and Wang Yi entered the rockery.
Gu Jiu stood outside waiting for news.
Mother Fang said: "The third girl did this kind of thing, and at first she felt surprised. When you think about it, she can do it. The three girls speak and do things with enthusiasm. I don't know what I have suffered today. Exciting, he actually did this to the four girls."
Gu Jiu said blankly: "No matter what reason Gu Yue has, if he dares to hurt others and set fire, he must bear the due price."
Madam Fang whispered: "If you look for the third girl with such a big fanfare, you can't help it. Once it reaches the Hexibo Mansion, the slave and maid are worried that the marriage of the Hexibo Mansion may fall."
Gu Jiu said with a stern face, "Even if the marriage fails, Gu Yue will take the blame."
"Girl, I found it."
Xiao Cui ran out of the cave, "The three girls are hidden in the innermost cave, and they finally found it."
Soon, Wang Yi dragged Gu Yue out.
Gu Yue was alone and embarrassed.
Gu Jiu walked up, without a word of nonsense, lifted his slap and slapped Gu Yue in the face.
"Do you dare to hit me? Why do you hit me?"
Snapped!
Happiness!
Gu Yue slapped Gu Yue seven or eight in a row, so that Gu Yue did not dare to open his mouth to speak, and both cheeks swelled up.
"Just slap you a few times, it's considered light. Just depending on what you do, you can't be overstated."
"Ahhhhh...why are you hitting me."
Gu Yue roared.
At this moment, messy footsteps came from behind.
Both Xie and Zhang are here.
Xie's face was green, rushed up, slapped Gu Yue directly.
Wang Yi didn't hold Gu Yue, and Gu Yue fell to the ground.
Xie was silent, and rushed up again, hitting with his hands and stepping on with his feet.
If Xie's yelling, Gu Yue still hopes to turn over.
Now, Xie's silence can only say that Gu Yue has been sentenced to death here.
Seeing Gu Yue was beaten with a bruised nose and swollen face, the eldest wife Zhang hurriedly ordered someone to hold Xie.
"Take the third girl down, bring it back to the room and settle down. Wait until the second master comes back to deal with it."
Then, the eldest wife Zhang pacified Xie, "Sister, don’t fight. I haven’t asked the question clearly, so I’ll talk about it when I ask."
Xie's panting, beating is also a physical task.
She pointed to Gu Yue and said hoarsely: "You are not my daughter. I have never given birth to a vicious daughter like you."
Gu Yue didn't say a word, her mouth swelled up, her eyes staring at Xie's resentfully.
Xie sneered, then raised his hand and hit Gu Yue again.
Zhang hurriedly stopped and scolded the next person, "I was still stunned by what to do, and quickly took the three girls down. I ordered Gu Quan to give the password. Who dares to talk nonsense, I tore his mouth."
The maid Shaoyao took her orders away.
Gu Yue was also taken away.
Xie's body softened and fell to the ground.
"Sister, are you okay."
"Madam? What's wrong with you, madam?"
Gu Jiu diagnosed the pulse, "Short breath and heart attack, plus the hot weather, there are signs of slight heat stroke. Take it to the room to settle down, let the gout dissipate heat, and give some anti-heat medicine."
"Listen to the second girl, hurry up and bring your wife down." The Zhang clan scolded Chunhe and the others, staring at what they were doing and didn't hurry to do something.
The chaos gradually subsided and the fire was extinguished. Only a cluster of smoke remained.
Fangcaotang was completely destroyed and must be rebuilt. There is definitely no way to live.
Gu Shan inhales less smoke and dust, and the injury on the back of her head is not serious, and she can recover quickly after using the medicine.
The maid Hongling’s head was seriously injured. He inhaled too much smoke and it would take a period of recuperation to recover.
Xie took the anti-heat medicine and drank water to dissipate the heat and recover a little.
Chunhe told her, "Mrs., the master is back. I'm rushing over."
Xie's face was pale, "Help me up and go to Zizhuyuan."
"Madam, your body?"
"I'm fine. This matter must be dealt with as soon as possible."
Mr. Xie and Mrs. Gu came to Zizhuyuan almost at the same time.
The couple exchanged glances, and neither of them spoke.
Gu Jiu greeted him from the room, "please greet my father and wife. The third sister is locked in the room."
Master Gu hummed, "Second girl, you should withdraw first, and the officer here will take care of it."
Gu Jiu bowed to take his orders and walked out of the room.
But she did not leave, she stood under the eaves, listening to the movement in the house.
Master Gu and Xie entered the bedroom together, and the servant girls were all waiting outside.
The atmosphere in the room was solemn.
Gu Yue lay on the bed, ignorant, as if dead.
Master Gu walked up silently, grabbed Gu Yue's wrist, pulled Gu Yue from the bed, and threw it directly on the ground.
Gu Yue was in pain, but didn't say a word.
Master Gu sneered, "You dare to put on such a face until now. I really regret that you didn't throw you in the urine when you were born."
Gu Yue raised her head and looked at Master Gu, then at Xie's.
"Do you really think that I am a pro-daughter? It is also a prostitute, Gu Jiu's dowry is 40 thousand tael, my dowry is 20 thousand tael, I admit, who made Gu Jiu marry the emperor's grandson. But Gu Shan has nothing to do. Can there be a dowry of forty thousand taels? Why? I am the same father and mother, why am I inferior to her? You are partial, so don't you allow me to be angry?"
Master Gu looked at Xie's.
Xie was stunned for a moment, but reacted in a blink of an eye.
Gu Yue must have overheard her when she was talking to Chunhe.
Xie chuckled, "Because of this, you are going to put your sister to death. You are so vicious."
Gu Yue said angrily: "I learned from you all. Only if you teach well, I can learn your skills."
Snapped!
Without a word, Master Gu slapped Gu Yue into the air.
"As of this day, I still don't repent. I killed you, a vicious beast."
Gu Yue lay on the ground and roared, "If I am a beast, I am also a beast."
Master Gu was out of anger, and today he must beat Gu Yue to death.
