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

Chapter 406
"An assassin entered our other courtyard and injured our master. We followed the assassin to this place and suspected that he had escaped into your village. We will go in and search for it, and hope that you will be happy."

Gu Chengyu glanced at the person who was speaking. This person was around forty, holding a knife in his hand. The three people in the back were also dressed in the same way, a few steps behind, with this person as the leader.Looking at the attire, Gu Chengyu thinks it should be a first-class guard.

Gu Chengyu felt that this man raised his chin slightly when he spoke, and his attitude was very arrogant. He didn't look like an ordinary guard, but rather an upper-class figure who often gave orders.

"Master, Zhuangzi has been surrounded by our people, and the assassin can't fly even with wings."

Gu Chengyu was waiting to answer, but someone came to report to the man on the horse.

Gu Chengyu was furious when he heard that, in this world, as long as he has power, he can do whatever he wants.

"Young Master, since you said you were suspicious, it means that you didn't see the assassin escape into my Zhuangzi with your own eyes, so why did you surround Zhuangzi? Are you sure that the assassin is in my Zhuangzi?"

His Highness raised his eyebrows, quite tempered.

He looked at Gu Chengyu and said after a long while: "Other Zhuangzi who are close, Ben. We have searched and found no suspicious people. This area is all farmland, and it has snowed again. There is nowhere to hide. Today I'm afraid I will be offended."

Jin Canling glanced at his master in surprise, his master was always superior and rarely explained so much to others.

After being surprised, he glanced at Gu Chengyu. Could it be that this young man has some background?Then they can't force their way in. His master hasn't mentioned the matter of breaking in since the boy came out.

Then, his tone became calmer, "If the assassin is not caught for a day, my master will not be able to sit back and relax. I hope you will forgive me!"

Gu Chengyu pondered for a while, and when it comes to this point, if he refuses to agree, it will appear unreasonable.But it would be too easy to just let them in like this.

"Since that's the case, why don't I let my people search the village, and if they find the assassin, I'll hand it over to you."

Jin Canling thought it was very funny, what is the status of this young man, he started to discuss terms with his master.

If it wasn't for his master who didn't want to reveal his identity, where would this young man be babbling here?
His Highness gradually lost his patience. Could it be that Gu Chengyu is delaying time?He doubted Gu Chengyu again.

"Mr. Gu obstructed you so much. Could it be that he is an accomplice of that assassin? Or, you are that assassin?"

His Highness squinted his eyes slightly, staring closely at Gu Chengyu's, as if he wanted to see if there was panic hidden in his eyes.

When Gu Chengyu heard this, he chuckled.

"The young master thinks highly of me, do you think I look like an assassin? I don't have that ability, and besides, I have no grievances with the young master, why should I assassinate the young master?"

Is he full?However, this person has actually investigated his origin.

His Highness stared at Gu Chengyu closely, but felt that those eyes were hazy and he couldn't see clearly!
It seems that the assassin will not be caught today, and he already has a premonition in his heart.

"Since it's not the son, the son should prove his innocence."

After His Highness finished speaking, he pouted his chin towards Jin Canling.

Jin Canling checked his eyes and immediately understood, is the master suspicious of this young man?He looked at Gu Chengyu with slightly damp temple hair, and couldn't help becoming suspicious.

The assassin was wounded on his chest, he had to look at Gu Chengyu's chest before going in to search.

Jin Canling stopped talking and stepped forward, ready to get close to Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu's complexion was slightly gloomy, it was simply too deceptive.He turned his hands behind his back and placed them on the soft sword at his waist.As long as this person comes forward, what kind of official is he?According to the split is not wrong.

"Chengyu! What happened?" Zhu Pang's voice came from behind Gu Chengyu.

He had just sobered up, and when he woke up, he heard the servants in the village talk about someone blocking the gate and wanting to go in and search for some assassin.At this moment, Gu Chengyu was confronting those people.

After Zhu Pang finished listening, he dragged Zheng Lun, who was still in a daze, to the front yard.

Seeing a large group of torches at the door, his heart sank, and his steps became more urgent. It seemed that there were quite a few people.He has no other skills, but he is good at fighting.

Gu Chengyu felt a little helpless when he heard Zhu Pang's voice.He turned around and saw that Zhu Pang and Zheng Lun were indeed here, but he didn't see Sun Xian and the others, so he probably hadn't woken up yet.

With friends around, he can't be unscrupulous, so as not to accidentally hurt the two of them.After all, there are many people on the other side, and all of them are good players.

"But what happened? We're here to help you." Zhu Pang glanced towards the opposite side, and suddenly fell silent in fright.

After being taken aback for a while, he hurriedly pulled Zheng Lun to kneel down, "Zhu Pang, the son of the Minister of War, sees His Royal Highness the First Prince."

Deng Lun was also sober. Before he recovered, Zhu Pang pulled him to kneel down. He only glanced at the other side when he heard Zhu Pang's voice.

Seeing this, he was extremely astonished, why is the First Prince here?

"Student Zheng Lun is meeting His Royal Highness the First Prince!"

Zhu Pang gave Gu Chengyu a hand with his left hand, and said softly, "Meet the First Prince!"

Gu Chengyu was shocked. He had long thought that this person had a high official position, but he did not expect to be the eldest prince.That's really a coincidence, they only mentioned the eldest prince today, and now they actually met the real person.

But he looked at the eldest prince's expression, he didn't look like someone who had been ill for a long time.However, it is not ruled out that people have already cultivated themselves.

The eldest prince did not expect to meet Zhu Pang here, of course he knew Zhu Pang, and Zhu Kui, the servant of the Ministry of War, often wiped the bastard son's ass.

Unexpectedly, someone like Gu Chengyu would also walk with Zhu Pang.

As for Zheng Lun, he just ignored him. He didn't pay attention to a son of a concubine in the Hou's mansion.His father had nothing to do all day long, and he didn't even seek a seventh-rank official.

No matter how reluctant Gu Chengyu was, he could only raise his hem and knelt down.

"Student Gu Chengyu is meeting His Royal Highness the First Prince!"

Looking at Gu Chengyu who was kneeling on the ground, the First Prince only felt that his mood suddenly improved.

However, today's whereabouts were exposed, I'm afraid that the other courtyard will not be able to live temporarily, and everything in the other courtyard will have to be evacuated.

"Get up! Mr. Gu, I will bring someone into your Zhuangzi to check it out, and make sure not to damage the plants and trees of the Zhuangzi. Does Mr. Gu have any objections?"

Gu Chengyu slandered in his heart, look at this crazy attitude when speaking, is this asking him?This is obviously a notification.

"Since His Highness is worried, the students will naturally have to prove their innocence, Your Highness, please!" Gu Chengyu got up, and the old god stood aside on the ground, and moved out of the way.

There is a smile on his face, but he is beating the villain madly in his heart, it is better to have power!
Seeing Gu Chengyu's attitude of not wanting to say more, the eldest prince had a smile on his face, but he might be scolding him in his heart!
The eldest prince ordered a team of people and walked straight to the village.

Jin Canling glanced at Gu Chengyu and the others. If he had known that his identity was going to be exposed, he might as well have revealed his identity earlier, so as to save so much nonsense.
