Chapter 133: Go to Beijing

Chapter 133 Going to Beijing
Upon hearing Peng Yizhen's arrangement, Cao and Gu Bainiang cried and thanked them again.
Peng Yizhen is an old friend they made in Xianren County. They experienced the Zhou shopkeeper incident together, and now they jointly run a drugstore. They are not relatives more emotionally than relatives.
Gu Shiba Niang thought that her brother died because he was infected with boil disease in his life. In this life, the plague of prison will recur, and the boil disease is inevitable. It is better to take Peng Yizhen, the genius doctor. Nevertheless.
"Then there will be Uncle Lao." She said with a plastic surgery, not being polite anymore.
Since it was agreed, the sooner the journey, the better, Peng Yijing immediately went back to clean up, took the medicine store and closed the door temporarily, and wrote a letter asking the young man to send home to pick up his family as soon as the gate was opened.
The parting was just around the corner, but the mother and daughter had no tears. Cao took the servant-wife to take care of the luggage, and Gu Shiba Niang quickly wrote a letter to Xin Chaoyang, asking him to take care of his mother.
The tragedy of my brother's imprisonment really reappeared. Will the tragedy of Cao's family also reappear? Her heart could not be split into two parts, and she couldn't let it go, and her painful heart broke.
Not to mention the reaction of Gu Changchun and others just now, it made her feel like she fell into an ice cave. , Secondly, I was afraid that Gu Changchun would really remove his brother from the clan, and there was no one at home, not even a person competing to protect.
The only one who can rely on and believe is Xin Chaoyang, at least for now, she is still worthy of trust in Chaoyang's help. Compared with family love, interest is now the reason she Gu Shiba Niang believes most.
She also wrote a paper contract with the letter, renewing the contract exclusively for medicines for one year, and signed it.
"Mother, if they really want to get rid of the older brother, and they can't fight, let them get rid of all three of our family." Gu Shiba Niang said quietly at last.
Cao nodded, stroked his daughter's head, and said hello.
When the sky was dark, two carriages quietly drove out of the door of the Cao family's house, and hurried along the empty street shrouded in mist.
When approaching the city gate, a small servant stopped them by the roadside.
"Lady Gu, this is a letter from our young master."
Gu Shiba Niang stretched out her hand from the window to take it. The carriage did not stop, and galloped past the little boy. She opened the letter, but found that there was only a blank piece of paper. Finally, she felt that the boulder pressed by her heart was slightly loose and covered with Hong Si's eyes finally closed, and she leaned against the swaying car wall.
At this time, Xin Chaoling hurriedly rushed into Xin Chaoyang's study, first entering the paper ball that was thrown on the ground.
Xin Chaoyang lay sideways on the long collapse, facing inward, her long black hair pouring down like a waterfall.
"I said, brother, you can still sleep." He stepped on the paper ball, jumped in front of Xin Chaoyang, and yelled, "Something big happened."
"What's the noise?" Xin Chaoyang's lazy way, people still do not move.
"Brother, Gu Jieyuan has been sent to prison" Xin Chaoling shouted.
"I know." Xin Chaoyang hummed, turned around and lay flat, his eyes still closed.
"That...that...what about Lady Gu?" Xin Chaoling stammered.
The reaction of the elder brother in front of him was beyond his expectation.
"Do everything, obey the fate." Xin Chaoyang replied faintly, raising his hand, wide white gauze sleeves covering his face.
Xin Chaoling stood there, feeling that there was a lot to say, and felt that there was no need to say a word. He dullly kicked the ball of paper under his feet, exhaled heavily, and sat down on the armchair in front of the book table. I saw a stack of paper with three or four characters scattered on the table.
Some wrote "Anxin", some wrote "Don't read" and so on.
"What do you want to write?" Xin Chao Ling muttered, pulling aside, and suddenly saw a contract with bright red fingerprints.
"Lady Gu" He jumped up with the contract, "When did Lady Gu send it?"
"Last night." Xin Chaoyang's voice from under his sleeves was a little dull.
It turned out that Lady Gu had already told her elder brother for the first time, and Xin Chao Ling fell open, no wonder she was not surprised at the news she had brought.
"What did Lady Gu asked you to do? She even wrote the contract in advance? I said, brother, I've heard about it, this Gu Jieyuan committed a rebellious deed. If you don't want to make trouble, you want to imprison the Nine Clan..." He endured Can't help asking.
"Nothing, just take care of her mother." Xin Chaoyang said lightly, his posture unchanged.
"That's it?" Xin Chaoling asked, staring.
Xin Chaoyang put down his sleeves and opened his eyes, with a slight redness in his eyes, indicating that he did not sleep last night.
"Then what do you think?" he asked, sitting up slowly.
Xin Chao Ling smirked, really nothing...
He shook the contract in his hand, and said with a bit of deep solemnity: "The brother accepted it, it's not very good, it seems that we have fallen into trouble..."
Xin Chaoyang smiled, stood up, and the maids outside the house filed in. One put a thin satin cashmere robe on him, one carefully tied his hair with him, and the other held warm tea.
"Good sister, give me a cup." Xin Chao Lingshun took a pretty maid's hand and pointed to his throat, "It's going to smoke."
The pretty maid smirked, really went to pour him a cup of tea, and feed him with her hand.
"Brother, although I don't understand business, I also know how to give charcoal in the fire... At this time, we should never mention any conditions..." Xin Chaoling reached out and embraced the pretty maid's waist, and then went vaguely. Said.
"I accepted it to make her feel at ease." Xin Chaoyang said, putting on the grey cloak and striding out.
"An Xin?" Xin Chaoling was a little puzzled, watching Xin Chaoyang go, and hurriedly let go of the maidservant, "Brother, where are you going?"
No one was seen outside the door.
Gu Changchun and several people walked into the house with a look of exhaustion, and everyone who hadn't slept for the same night all shouted around, asking in a chaotic manner what was going on.
Gu Changchun waved his hand to signal everyone to stay calm, sit down and drank three cups of hot tea in one breath, and then eased.
"It's like this..." He began to speak with a hoarse voice, but his voice at this time was much calmer than when he suddenly received the news yesterday.
Sure enough, the government is well-informed. The news is one day ahead of them. The origin of the incident has to be talked about before last year. The cause was the impeachment of the Tanzhou Chief Minister of corruption and bribery. This was originally a small matter, but it was involved behind the scenes. The two big men are getting stronger and stronger.
The prefect of Tanzhou was a student of Li Shifang, a cabinet scholar, and the chief ambassador of Tanzhou was the nephew of Zhu Chunming, the chief assistant. In short, after a series of courts dealt with the censorship of the Dali Temple inquiries. At the end of the year, the chief ambassador of Tanzhou The dismissal will never be used for investigation.
Everyone thought that the matter was over, but at the Chinese New Year this year, the prefect of Tanzhou was taken away from the New Year's banquet by Dali Temple sent like wolves.
"Why?" The whole room was fascinated, and only thought it was better than what the teahouse storyteller said.
Gu Changchun gave the people in the room a meaningful look, and slowly uttered a few words.
"Corruption and disaster relief."
The whole house was in an uproar.
Gu Changchun took another sip of tea, and then started speaking.
This is related to last year, the locust plague in Tanzhou, the grain was not harvested, and the court allocated relief food. At the end of last year, after the case of the Tanzhou chief envoy was closed, the Liuyang county magistrate impeached the family members of the Tanzhou prefect. The disaster food was replaced with old moldy food to obtain huge profits. After investigation, it was true, and he was dismissed and sent to prison...
This means that the dog bites a pinch of the dog's hair, or...the world is as dark as a crow, or is it fifty steps and a hundred steps?
"Grandpa..." Someone interrupted Gu Changchun aloud, looking confused, "...what does this have to do with Brother Hai?"
Gu Changchun glanced at him and twisted his sparse beard.
"This matter did not end here. Dali Temple continued to investigate and found that someone in Tanzhou had reported the matter long ago, but it was covered up by the teacher of the prefect of Tanzhou, Li Zhishi, so the emperor was furious and ordered the Criminal Ministry to investigate thoroughly. Bachelor of Li..." He said slowly, "Xing Department, do you know whose world it belongs to."
Although most people of the tribe have never set foot in officialdom, they knew something about Zhu Da Shoufu, who was like a thunderous in the Zhou Dynasty, and suddenly understood.
"... I heard that Master Li pointed at Master Zhu and scolded other country thief because of General Ye..."
"No, for the sake of General Ye, Master Li also got into trouble with Master Zhu..."
"So that's it, this time is over, Master Zhu can't catch his pigtail, so he took the initiative to send it to the door..."
"But, grandpa, what does this have to do with Gu Hai? Gu Hai, a small student, can't embezzle food for disaster relief, nor can he favor corrupt officials..."
"Master Li is the chief examiner of the examination." Gu Changchun sighed and said, "Therefore, his Majesty gave him face and ordered him to jail after the palace examination was over. But before that, everyone had heard the wind, Brother Hai My son didn’t know what was going on. He arrived at Mrs. Li’s house on the day that the Criminal Department arrested people. A few young students got into trouble with the Criminal Department and said something they shouldn’t say..."
That's it, this hapless kid...
"Then, it shouldn't be a big deal." Everyone asked carefully.
Young people are passionate, and it is their chief examiner who can also be called a teacher, it is inevitable that they will be a little impulsive. This is not a major event of rebellion. At most, it will pass by the reprimand?
"I don't know this yet." Gu Changchun said, but his face was a little solemn. He thought of the expressions of the adults when they were talking, and had an unclear premonition, "The person sent by Shen'an should be here soon. Listen to what he said. Well, these people in officialdom are most accustomed to avoiding disadvantages, and telling me so much is already a lot of face..."
Thinking of the attitudes of those adults when they saw him last night, they were obviously different from the attitude of Gu Yuzhong when the news of the champion came the other day.
This brother Haier is the same as her sister. He doesn’t seem to be mindful in doing things, and doesn’t see where he is facing who he is. He just beats him like a hammer, so he doesn’t say anything, but also affects them.
"If the matter is really serious, remove him from the clan. In any case, he should not affect the clan and Yu'er's great future." He patted the chair heavily and stood up, "Go and see the Cao family and that girl." What are you doing? Let them be honest these days and stop making trouble for me, especially to take care of that girl..."
With such a big incident in Gu Hai, every household was staring at his door, so everyone knew about the two cars leaving early in the morning.
"Grandpa, that girl seems to have gone to Beijing, and left before dawn." Someone said.
"What?" Gu Changchun lost her voice in surprise, and immediately looked angry, "Look, see, are there any of us in this eye? Just do whatever you want, so arrogant, it's strange if nothing happens."
Three days later, the letter from the eldest son of Gu Changchun in the capital arrived. After reading the letter, Gu Changchun jumped out of the chair in shock, and his face turned pale.
"It's over, it's over, it's over..." He said these words over and over again.
At this time, Gu Shiba Niang had also been sitting at her own uncle's house in the capital. After listening to the words of the important minister, she felt dizzy and flashed these words repeatedly in her mind.
Over, over, over...
"Li Shifang is dead." Gu Shenan said, looking at the little girl sitting in front of her eyes, the shock she heard from her family at first still remained on her face.
"That elder brother..." Gu Shiba Niang asked softly.
Her expression was very calm, except that her face was a little more haggard than ordinary people, which, in Gu Shenan's view, was also due to the sleepless rush.
This little girl, Gu Shenan, had never seen her before, and she had heard her name twice this year. The general impression was that she hadn't been disciplined by her father to know the rough girl.
But when I saw it today, his elegant posture and dignified manner were even more surprising because of his calmness.
Seeing that she was a few years younger than Luo'er, only when she heard the news that her brother fished over the Dragon Gate, she was suddenly shocked by Long Luo Jiutian. The ups and downs of this kind of joy and sadness, even people who have spent half of their life can't bear it, it's hard for her. The little girl can still come to the capital without being single.
"That one..." Gu Shenan made a slight gesture, and then remembered that this little girl was not a member of officialdom, nor a member of the capital, nor a student who cares about family affairs, national affairs, and the world...
"That Master Zhu..." Gu Shiba Niang said, "What do you want? Just because my brother maintains his own exam teacher~EbookFREE.me~, if he has done his duty as a disciple, he will not die?"
I just said it again, and the little girl already understood, Gu Shenan nodded, yes, if it is another girl, I am afraid that she won't know anything except crying.
"Since the General Ye incident, the posts of the impeached Master Zhu have been like snow flakes, and several ministers have been dismissed by various reasons. Master Zhu has endured it for a long time. This time he wanted to kill the chicken to show the shock to the monkey. Shocked, so Li Shifang is dead." Gu Shenan said with a little more patience, "And Haier, there was nothing wrong with it, but he was taught some lessons. Just be aware of it. At most, he was kept by the officials and not used, but A few days ago, after the news of Master Li's death sentence came down, he filed a petition..."
Gu Hai does not yet have a formal official position, so he can't make a petition, but as a tribute, he can make a petition.
"Sharp words, pointing directly to Master Zhu..." Gu Shenan said, looking at Gu Shiba Niang, his expression was heavy, and the meaning was self-evident, "He asked someone to give me the letter, and asked for a genealogy, just to not be involved. Family..."
He said that he did not affect his relatives, but he actually asked his relatives not to embarrass his mother and sister. He did so, obviously he had already planned to die.
