Chapter 1165 Confrontation
Chapter 1165 Confrontation
"These officials are willing to let me go, so I won't hurt her." The man's expression was a little excited. He was also unlucky today, and he was blocked by these people.
He stared at the officer with a vicious look on his face. In fact, he also knew that it was useless to hijack this little girl. How could these people care about the life and death of a commoner?
But you have to try everything, right?Maybe it can be of some use?
At the same time, Liu Su'er was also wailing in her heart, originally the door was closed, but today is the past.But who would have thought that this person broke into her house and even hijacked her.
I don't know who this person is, and if he is the one that the officials want to arrest.However, these are not important now, she only knows that this person wants to use her as a threat to escape from this place.
But will the people in the government release this person because of her?This is absolutely impossible, she is just a commoner now, even if she dies, it can only be regarded as her bad luck.
The government can at most pay some money, and the matter can only be let go in the end.
But she still has something to do, how can she die in the hands of the government or this person inexplicably?She is not reconciled.
Liu Su'er was thinking a lot, but she racked her brains and couldn't think of any way to escape.
When Gu Chengyu rushed to the noisy place with his tea inkstone, he only saw some officials with sabers in their hands, surrounding a family's courtyard.A few steps away, there are still a few fearless commoners poking their heads.
"What happened?" Gu Chengyu frowned slightly, it didn't look like he was holding an assassin.
Because the man and Liu Su'er were blocked by the crowd, Gu Chengyu couldn't see what was going on inside.
When the surrounding officials heard Gu Chengyu's voice, they quickly moved out of the way.
"My lord!" Everyone saluted and shouted in unison.
Liu Su'er's gaze couldn't help but look at the young man who was walking, and saw that the other party was wearing a moon-white fur-trimmed cloak and a white jade crown on his head. His elegant and handsome appearance seemed even more noble under this elegant attire. angry.
This person seemed to be covered with a layer of silver light, which was very eye-catching in this gray night.
Liu Su'er's eyes froze, this person should be Gu Chengyu!
She had never met Gu Chengyu before, but asked Uncle Qin to inquire about Gu Chengyu's appearance and character.
Gu Chengyu has a great reputation in the capital, and any local peddler can tell him some deeds.
I heard that this person is very talented, and his strategy is not low.The reform of tea tax and salt tax two years ago was proposed by this person. Although tea merchants and tea farmers have different praises and criticisms for Gu Chengyu, this person has a good reputation among the common people.
After all, the flood in the south of the Yangtze River had just happened before, and the imperial court sent this person to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief.It is said that this person brought the flood under control before the imperial court distributed the relief money.Not only stopped the riots of the victims, but also built river embankments.
Although Jiangnan is far away from the capital, there are many merchants traveling between the two places.
Gu Chengyu's deeds in the south of the Yangtze River have long been spread in the capital.
Liu Su'er took the risk to get in touch with him because she liked this person's ability.
From these things Gu Chengyu did, it can be seen that this person is different from those corrupt officials, or officials who have nothing to do with themselves, but he is an official who really cares about the people.
If such a person asks him for help, the other party may be less likely to refuse.
"My lord, I don't know who this person is. When we searched just now, we asked this person to take out the household registration guide, but we didn't want this person to run away. When we saw that the situation was wrong, we immediately chased him. Who knew that this person ran here , and kidnapped the girl.”
As soon as Gu Chengyu came over, he saw the kidnapped girl. What should this girl be called Su'er.
When the woman stopped their carriage before, he had seen the woman's appearance, and Gu Chengyu's doubts arose again.
Is this hijacking a conspiracy or a coincidence?
He stared at the man and the girl, but said nothing.
"Who are you?" The man tightened his arms, and Liu Su'er suddenly felt his shoulders being tightly grasped, causing her to frown in pain.
"Who are you, and why did you kidnap this girl?" Gu Chengyu stood still three meters away from the man, looked at the dagger on Liu Su'er's neck, and raised his eyebrows.
There was already a trace of blood on the skin of bully Shuang Saixue, Liu Su'er's brows were tightly frowned, her lips were a little pale, it should be caused by pain and tension in her heart.
Looking at the man's movements and expressions again, it doesn't look like he is acting this time.The man had dark skin and wore coarse clothes.The sleeves were rolled up to the elbows, exposing strong, thick arms.
From his appearance and clothes, he doesn't look like an assassin.Gu Chengyu analyzed it in his heart, and immediately came to a conclusion.
"You, you don't care who I am, I want to leave here, otherwise I will kill her."
When the man saw Gu Chengyu appearing, his expression became more nervous, and the dagger in his hand couldn't help but moved closer to Liu Su'er's neck.Blood flowed down the dagger and dripped on Liu Su'er's front.
He looked Gu Chengyu up and down, although he was very young, but just now these officials called him an adult, so he should be an official.
If this person gave the order, these officials would not dare to stop him.
Gu Chengyu pondered for a while, there were a lot of onlookers here, and those people who dared not come out to watch the excitement, opened the door a crack and poked their heads.
If he disregarded the woman's life and captured this person, then tomorrow the whole capital would say that he disregarded the lives of the people and was a cold-hearted person.
But it is absolutely impossible to let him let this person go. This person must have committed some serious crime, otherwise he would not run away when he saw the government.
Glancing behind him, he exchanged a look with Mingyan.Ming Yan understood immediately, and slowly backed away.
At this time, there was a hint of whiteness in the sky, and everyone's sight became clearer.
The man couldn't help being more anxious when he saw this, it was dawn!
Liu Su'er stared at Gu Chengyu's eyes, the young man's eyes did not fluctuate, like an endless abyss, the bottom could not be seen at a glance.What these eyes brought her was only indifference and coldness.
She is also a little flustered at the moment, she and Gu Chengyu have never met, if the other party is really cruel, then is she going to die here?
Thinking of the things under the pedal, Liu Su'er opened her mouth, looking at Gu Chengyu with pleading eyes.
An officer pulled the sleeve of the person beside him, and softly persuaded him: "Zhang Yang, don't be impulsive, with Mrs. Gu here, Miss Liu will be fine."
Zhang Yang's hand holding the saber tightly tightened again. He didn't know what Master Gu meant by not saying anything until now. Didn't Master Gu intend to take care of Miss Liu's life?
Seeing the fearful look on Liu Su'er's beautiful face, her pale lips were even more tightly pressed together.
It was the first time he saw Miss Liu just now, but he had already made up his mind, and now he definitely didn't want to see her die like this.
"But." As soon as Zhang Yang opened his mouth, his mouth was covered by the person beside him.
"Then how did this official know that you will let this girl go after you escape?" Gu Chengyu caught a glimpse of Ming Yan jumping up to the roof from the corner of his eyes, and then lightly jumped onto the courtyard wall.
