The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1198 Release
Ming Mo was about to knock on the door to wake Gu Chengyu up, but just as he walked to the door, he heard Gu Chengyu calling him, and he immediately responded, turned and walked out of the yard.

It seems that the adults stayed up all night again last night!
Gu Chengyu did not go to the East Palace to return to his command. Now that the assassination matter has not progressed, it is useless for him to go to the East Palace.

The guard in front of the gate of Dali Temple yawned violently against the gate. Seeing the lack of energy of this man, another guard laughed and said, "Did you become a thief in the middle of the night? Are you so sleepy?"

They only need to watch the second half of the night, and rest in the classroom in the first half of the night. This person is just laughing at him!

"Yesterday, I played cards with Liang. If you don't come, you can't blame me!" The man tried to open his eyes, trying to stay awake, but his eyelids seemed heavy and he couldn't lift them up at all.

"Hey! During the national mourning period, you dare to play cards?"

The man next to him silenced after he finished speaking, and the jailer immediately became sober after hearing the national mourning.When Wei Wei opened her eyes and looked, she was frightened out of her wits.

"I beg Master Gu to spare the humble job, and I will never dare to gamble again next time." He was so frightened that he immediately fell to his knees, kowtowed three times to Gu Chengyu, and begged for mercy.

Gambling is strictly prohibited during the national mourning period. Master Gu found out about this, how can he still survive?It's not that he didn't see Mr. Gu's ruthlessness yesterday, he never dared to underestimate the other party just because of his tender face.

Gu Chengyu couldn't help but have black lines all over his face, "Open the door, I want to interrogate the criminal!"

"I beg Mr. Gu to show you your noble hand and spare the lowly post. The humble post must be like a cow and a horse, and repay Mr. Gu's great kindness!"

This person was still begging for mercy, Gu Chengyu looked at another jailer who was trembling with fright.

"Ah! I'll open the door right now!" He tremblingly took out the key from his waist and opened the big lock.

Gu Chengyu ignored the jailer who was still kneeling and kowtowing, and went straight into the prison.As Gu Chengyu walked, he was still thinking, is he so scary?Why are these two so frightened?He is obviously a gentle and warm man, okay?

What exactly honed him into this appearance?well!It's life!Life abused him like a dog butcher, and he still treated life like first love.

Instructing the two of them not to come in, he walked towards the dungeon.

Xia Qing heard the sound of the door opening, and immediately turned to look over.Seeing that it was Gu Chengyu, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes, then he snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Gu Chengyu was about to walk forward, but he didn't want to hear voices coming from outside.

Gu Chengyu could only hear the jailer outside who opened the door for him say flatteringly: "Why did Mr. Pang come so early in the morning? I will open the door for you right now!"

"Hmph! It's almost high sun, and our family is late. Here~ This is the prince's letter, so you don't have to embarrass yourself!"

A shrill and feminine voice sounded, with a tone full of arrogance.

"Oh! If you don't work for His Highness, how can you come to our place?"

"However, this is the duty of the humble post after all, Eunuch Pang, this is an offense!"

Pangchu?The owner of this voice is definitely Pang Chu, Gu Chengyu will not remember it wrong.For Pang Chu to appear here, he must have obeyed the prince's order to handle matters.

Gu Chengyu turned his head to look at Xia Qing, his eyes were deep and bottomless, and Pang Chu was probably here for him.

"I don't know which prisoner Eunuch Pang is going to interrogate?" one of the jailers asked tentatively.

"Arraignment? Our family dare not stretch out this hand. This is a heavenly prison, and non-Dali Temple officials are not allowed to interrogate criminals. Don't talk nonsense, otherwise you will be caught, our family will not do well, and you don't want to be alone. .”

Pang Chu's expression turned pale. It's no wonder that these insignificant things can only guard the gate of the sky prison here.

"Yes, yes! Eunuch Pang is right."

"Hmph!" Pang Chu flicked his robe sleeves, and walked ahead with his head held high.

Then Gu Chengyu heard the sound of the chain being opened again, and two footsteps came towards Gu Chengyu from far to near.

As soon as Pang Chu appeared at the corner with a jailer, he heard a clear and soft voice of a young man from inside.

"Eunuch Pang is here!"

Pang Chu couldn't help looking up at the young man standing in the cell, and saw that although he was wearing a linen shirt with a round neck and large sleeves, the filial piety was not an official robe.

The hair is tied in a jade crown, the crown belt hangs in front of the chest, one hand is behind the back, and there is a light smile on the face.

Pang Chu was slightly taken aback, but he couldn't help admiring in his heart.It is often said that Taoist women should be pretty and filial, but today he realized that this saying also applies to men.

"Oh! It turned out to be Mr. Gu. Why did Mr. Gu come so early? But the criminals are going to be interrogated?" Pang Chu bowed to Gu Chengyu with a look of surprise.

"Exactly! I was very surprised to meet Eunuch Pang here." Gu Chengyu slightly curled his lips, so early?Who said just now that the sun is already high?
"Our family was ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to release Master Xia." After Pang Chu finished speaking, he took a cautious look at Gu Chengyu. Xia Qing was Gu Chengyu's political opponent, and he would definitely be angry when he found out.

I don't know what the prince was thinking, but he wanted to release Xia Qing.After all, the emperor died because Xia Qing had recommended Taoist Priest Tianji. I'm afraid it would be difficult for the prince to explain to the courtiers by doing this!

But he is just a slave, how can he discuss government affairs indiscriminately?He just needs to do what His Royal Highness told him to do.

"freed?"

Sure enough, Pang Chu saw that Gu Chengyu's face darkened, with disbelief and anger on his face.

"Cough! This is His Highness's intention. He said that it is for the sake of Master Xia's hard work in the past, so let him go back to the mansion for the time being. However, it is impossible for the official to return to his original post."

Gu Chengyu turned around suddenly and looked at Xia Qing, only to see that Xia Qing's expression was also quite surprised.But just a moment later, a smug smile appeared on his face.

Gu Chengyu stared at Xia Qing for a while, ignored Pang Chu, and walked towards Zhou Yuancong's cell without saying a word.

"I want to interrogate Zhou Yuancong!"

The two jailers felt that the atmosphere was a bit stagnant. With this cold tone, they knew that Mr. Gu must have a bad face without looking at it.They hurriedly opened Zhou Yuan from the prison cell, and the two of them pushed him out, one on the left and the other on the right.

Although Zhou Yuan had already been diagnosed and treated yesterday, how could he heal so quickly with such a serious injury?
It was only one night, and Zhou Yuan was a little dazed from the pain from now on.Unexpectedly, I couldn't faint completely, I just felt like ants were burrowing into the wound.

He was tied to the wooden frame again, and he couldn't help trembling a little.

He had already felt the pain of yesterday, and he had to experience it again today. The firm belief in his heart couldn't help being shaken.

Hearing Pang Chu's voice reading the prince's handbook, Gu Chengyu snorted coldly, and said coldly to Zhou Yuan: "Master Zhou, look at me, did you think clearly last night? Do you want to confess today? Woolen cloth?"

Zhou Yuan opened his eyes when he heard Gu Chengyu's voice.When he saw Gu Chengyu playing with a jade pendant hanging around his waist, his eyes widened and his body trembled even more.
