People are among the Eight Immortals, starting from Painted Skin Ghost

Chapter 368 The Eight Immortals in the Shangdong finally gather []

It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that Alai slowly woke up.

Last night, he "worked" for almost two hours, and even an iron man couldn't bear it.

Sitting up straight, Alai felt dizzy and his eyes were in a trance.

Especially on the sides and back of the waist, it seems to be empty from time to time.

Knowing that he was in a state of deficiency, Alai felt that he had to go to the drug store today to grab some medicine to replenish his body.

But it was difficult for Alai to come forward in person.

He decided to let his servant help him get the medicine.

However, he got out of bed, walked out of the courtyard, and scanned around, but he didn't find the servant from last night.

"Second Young Master, you're awake, what do you want to eat?"

"..."

"I guess the second young master rewarded him with a piece of gold, and now he's happy with some little girl's belly."

As a result, I visited many Goulan prostitution houses nearby, but I couldn't find anyone.

"Did you hear that?"

With the last glimmer of hope, Changshui went anyway.

"What happened? Who is so bold that the emperor dares to rob a common girl? This daughter of the Yu family is said to be engaged to the second son of the Liu Shaoqing family of Honglu Temple in the near future."

Changshui listened to Alai's words and went to look for the leftover dog.

"Second Young Master, it's not good!"

At this time, Chang Shui already felt something was wrong.

Before anyone left, I heard the people talking in the street.

Anyway, in the past few days, Gou Sheng has attracted the attention of the second young master, and everyone calls him Brother Gou.

A servant heard this and replied:

"When the dog was on the fourth watch, he sent that woman away and she has not come back yet."

He hurriedly sneaked to the alley where the woman was last night.

Alai didn't see the servant and didn't answer. He just asked casually.

At this moment, Changshui felt a little bad.

"Bring the dog to this young master!"

"Who is talking nonsense? Mr. Yu personally caught the thief this morning and took him to the Yamen!"

When Changshui heard everyone's discussion, he was so frightened that he broke into cold sweat and rushed to Cao's mansion without looking back.

Alai didn't know what it was called specifically, and neither did Changshui.

In fact, Gou Sheng's surname is Gou.

"Don't say this nonsense!"

Alai also chuckled and ordered:

"go with!"

After saying this, a servant immediately responded:

"Yes, Second Young Master!"

I thought that Brother Gou couldn't go to some Yingge Cuilou to enjoy it, right?

Of course Gou Sheng was the nickname given to him by Alai.

……

After the words fell, several servants burst into laughter.

……

"Gou Sheng, where did the others go?"

"Last night, Mr. Yu's daughter was harmed!"

It's not cheap there.

Finally, he looked at everyone again and said with a sinister smile:

"Who knows who did it? I just know that it was a servant who sent the daughter of the Yu family over. But which family it is from? There is no news in the county government yet."

The other servants in the courtyard saw Alai coming out and asked eagerly.

This servant, named Changshui, has a good relationship with Gou Sheng.

"It's terrible, Brother Dog has been caught!"

"Oh?"

……

But Brother Dog was also not found.

"At this juncture, something happened. I'm afraid Liu Shaoqing's family will definitely cause trouble!"

……

As soon as he arrived at Alai's courtyard, Chang Shui kept shouting.

In the room, Alai had just finished lunch and was eating snacks. When he suddenly heard this, his face suddenly changed. He stared straight at Changshui and asked anxiously:

"What did you say!"

"Gou Sheng was caught?!"

"Who caught it?" Alai said in shock.

Changshui replied: "I was caught by the Yu family. Most of them are already in the Yamen!"

When Alai heard this, he was stunned.

After a while, he couldn't help but curse loudly:

"This……"

"It's useless, it can't do anything!"

Seeing this, Chang Shui was very uneasy and asked Alai:

"Second Young Master, what should we do now?"

Alai said impatiently:

"Why panic!"

"I am the uncle of the country!"

"My sister is still a royal concubine. Isn't this young master favoring a woman? At worst, she can be kept as a side house in the house. Look at your potential!"

"Xiao... I heard that the Yu family has some connections in the court, and that woman is about to be engaged to the second son of the Liu family from Honglu Temple..."

Changshui said weakly.

After calming down, Alai looked disdainful and said:

"What are you afraid of?!"

"My eldest brother is the minister of the Ministry of Punishment. How can he be afraid of the young minister of Honglu Temple?"

"It is her blessing that I favor that girl. The Liu family is no better than my Cao family!"

"It's natural, but..."

Changshui thought it was reasonable, but he still had some idea of ​​his eldest son's character.

If the eldest young master accepts death and destroys his relatives out of righteousness, then the second young master will not have any good fruits to eat.

After thinking everything through, Alai said nonchalantly:

"No need to worry..."

"It took a lot of effort to find me at home. I will definitely be pampered in every possible way."

"Don't pay attention to these trivial matters. There may be some county magistrate. Seeing that my Cao family is so powerful, I don't dare to provoke him at all. I might as well send Gou Sheng back later."

In this regard, Chang Shui could only sigh.

Hope so too.

……

……

After the dog was reported to the official by the Yu family, they sent someone to the Liu family and invited Mr. Liu.

That is, Liu Shenghuai, the young minister of Honglu Temple at that time.

During this period, people from Kaifeng Mansion first interrogated Fan Na Gou Sheng.

After all, ordinary people don’t have the guts to rob civilian girls?

After Gou Sheng announced his identity, the people in Kaifeng Mansion were startled. The interrogator looked at each other and then asked again:

"You said you are from the Cao family, but which Cao family are you?"

"Who else could it be from the Cao family? Of course it would be the uncle's family in the current dynasty!"

Gou Sheng said loudly.

Although he was caught by the government, he did not panic.

I believe that my second young master will definitely save him.

"It's actually the home of Mr. Cao, this..."

Hearing this, the people in Kaifeng Mansion were stunned.

Everyone feels that this matter is a bit tricky.

The Cao family were powerful people in the dynasty.

Cao Lanyun is a newly promoted imperial concubine and is quite favored by the Holy Emperor.

Once a son is born, he will surely ascend to the imperial throne and the mother will be honored by the world.

Cao Jingxiu is young, under thirty, and is the minister of punishment. In recent days, he has become close to the prime minister. It is not easy to take over the Cao family.

"Who in the Cao family asked you to kidnap civilian girls for their sexual pleasure?"

Not long after, the people from Kaifeng Mansion asked again.

"It's Uncle Guo!" Gou Sheng said.

The people from Kaifeng Mansion retorted:

"nonsense!"

"Uncle Cao Guo is a man of integrity, how could he do such a shameless thing?"

"The adults are talking about Uncle Daguo, and the younger ones are talking about Uncle Erguo!" Gou Sheng explained after hearing this.

"Uncle Erguo?"

The people in Kaifeng Mansion frowned when they heard this.

After thinking about it for a moment, I finally understood. Earlier, there were rumors that the Cao family had found their youngest son who was lost in the past.

At the moment, it seems that he is the one who committed the serious crime!

"Master Qi, Master Liu is here!"

While the people in Kaifeng Mansion were hesitating, a government servant suddenly came in, came to him, and said in a low voice.

"Invite him in!"

After hearing this, Fu Yin paused and said.

Not long after he finished speaking, he looked at Gou Sheng kneeling on the ground in front of him and ordered to his left and right:

"Take him down!"

"Yes, my lord!"

The two government officials responded and detained Gou Sheng for the time being.

"This case is a bit tricky..."

The governor's brows gradually furrowed as he watched the servant being escorted away, but he felt troubled in his heart.

The Cao family is powerful and cannot be offended.

In this matter, it is best to reduce the big to the small.

Thinking of this, Fu Yin quickly summoned the master and ordered:

"go with!"

"Send someone to the Cao Mansion and ask Mrs. Cao to come over."

"I understand." Master replied.

After saying that, he also withdrew.

Not long after he left, a middle-aged man in his early forties with a short beard stepped across the threshold and walked in.

"I've met Mr. Wang!"

Then Liu Shenghuai came to the front of the hall and bowed to Fu Yin.

When Liu Shenghuai came here, he looked gloomy and was obviously angry.

After all, the daughter of the Yu family was the soon-to-be daughter-in-law of the Liu family. Being defiled so innocently made the Liu family lose face!

"Mr. Liu, you're welcome. Please take a seat."

Wang Fuyin nodded slightly, extended his hand to indicate, and said.

"Why don't you see that villain?"

After Liu Shenghuai sat down, he looked around and found that there were only a few government officials standing in the hall. He raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Master Liu, the villain has been detained by me." Wangfu Yin said.

"May I ask, Mr. Wang, whose family of villains is that? Which perverted and daring thief dares to harm good women and oppress the people?"

Hearing this, Liu Shenghuai made some calculations in his mind and asked again.

"To be honest with Mr. Liu, it's the Cao family."

Wang Fuyin sighed and said.

"Cao family, which Cao family?"

Liu Shenghuai was stunned for a moment before asking.

Seeing Liu Shenghuai pressing the question, Wang Fuyin simply told the truth:

"Which Cao family it can be, it's naturally the uncle's family of the current dynasty!"

"Previously, the boy had entertained everyone. He said that he was ordered by Uncle Guo to knock out the girl from the Yu family and carry her to the Cao Mansion in the middle of the night for Uncle Guo's enjoyment."

When Liu Shenghuai heard this, his face froze, and the gloomy look on his face became a little lighter.

After a while, he stood up and said angrily:

"Don't the Cao family bully others?"

Wang Fuyin raised his eyelids and advised:

"Master Liu, please don't be angry."

"I have sent someone to ask Mrs. Cao to come."

Liu Shenghuai didn't want to take this trick, he just snorted coldly and made a face:

"Humph!"

"Tomorrow the Japanese officials are scheduled to participate in a performance of the Cao family's book at the Holy See. Does this uncle of the state still have royal righteousness in his eyes when he rapes and kidnaps civilian girls?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Fuyin smiled helplessly and said:

"Master Liu, I'm afraid you don't know something. This matter was done by another uncle of the Cao family."

"It is reported that the uncle's name is Cao Jingqian. He had been separated from the Cao family for many years. Only recently was he found by Mrs. Cao. She is very doting on him."

"I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to handle."

"Even if the trouble comes in front of the emperor, and Concubine Cao and Minister Cao intercede for him, His Majesty will not be able to kill him!"

Wang Fuyin's words were like a knife thrust straight into Liu Shenghuai's chest. After hearing this, he laughed angrily and said:

"So, my Liu family can't do anything to the Cao family?"

Seeing this, Wang Fuyin shook his head helplessly and said:

"What will happen, we need Mrs. Cao to come, and the three of you can discuss it easily."

"However, Mr. Liu should know better than me that the Cao family has gained power?"

Liu Shenghuai did not answer, but remained silent.

Finally, he returned to his seat and pondered.

In response, Wang Fuyin shouted:

"Come here, serve tea to Mr. Liu!"

……

……

Another compartment.

It is said that the master ordered the official to go to Cao Mansion.

In less than half an hour, the messenger who had delivered the message arrived outside the gate of Cao Mansion.

After calling the door servant, the two officials were waiting outside the door.

After about a cup of tea, the doorman opened the door and asked the two government officials to go sit in the front hall first.

……

Cao Mansion, front hall.

Mrs. Cao walked over slowly with the support of her maid.

When the two officials saw this, they immediately stood up:

"Meet the old lady!"

Madam Cao nodded slightly and said:

"The two officers came to see me, what's the matter?"

"To inform you, Madam, it is my master who would like to invite Madam to come over."

"Why is this?"

Mrs. Cao was a little puzzled.

"The old lady will find out when she gets there."

The two yamen officials couldn't speak frankly, so they had to laugh.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Mrs. Cao agreed without doubting his presence.

Immediately, he ordered his servants to prepare the sedan chair.

Mrs. Cao didn't understand until she arrived at the government office and saw Wang Fuyin, Mr. Liu, and Mr. Yu, the master of suffering.

At first, Mrs. Cao didn't believe it, but she didn't believe it until she saw the remaining dog in the house.

At this moment, Mrs. Cao trembled and accepted this matter with a look of disbelief.

In an instant, he seemed to have aged ten years.

Next, there will be negotiations between the three companies.

But before that, Mrs. Cao paid a big courtesy to Mr. Sudden:

"Mr. Yu, I have no skills to educate my children. I am really ashamed of myself for committing such a thing that ruins people's innocence!"

"Please pay me my respects, Mr. Yu!"

"Old madam, you can't do it!" Seeing this scene.

Mr. Yu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect it to be like this, so he quickly helped her up.

When Wang Fuyin and Liu Shenghuai saw this, they also looked at each other and sighed.

No matter what you say, Mrs. Cao's attitude is still speechless.

The more this happens, the more angry everyone becomes at what Cao Jingqian did!

Mrs. Cao thought for a while and then said to her husband:

"Mr. Yu, Qian'er is still young. He has never been around me since he was a child. He grew up like this because he relied on begging for food. Now that he has committed such a big crime, I don't ask for forgiveness. I only hope that Mr. Yu can give him A chance to turn over a new leaf.”

"As for your beloved daughter, our Cao family will marry her openly and honestly and treat her as his wife. I wonder what Mr. Yu wants?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Yu suddenly felt embarrassed.

If you entrust your beloved daughter to Cao Jingxiu, he will certainly agree.

But Cao Jingqian?

Mr. Yu was not satisfied.

Regardless of Cao Jingqian's character, his traitorous nature and the harm he caused to his beloved daughter, even if he agreed, his daughter would refuse the marriage at the risk of death.

But if he doesn't agree, will the Liu family still want his daughter?

Without innocence, even if you get married, you will still be gossiped about.

For a moment, Mr. Yu was extremely confused.

"Old madam, let me go back and ask Yi'er for her opinion." Mr. Yu was unsure and could only reply with an excuse.

"That's fine, it depends on what you want, sir."

Mrs. Cao knew it was inconvenient to ask again, so she nodded in agreement.
