The most ferocious sword of the Imperial City Division

Gu Shiwei said, turning to look at Wang Jing, "From today on, your surname will be Gu and your first name will be Gu Shenjing."

Wang Jing's eyes turned red, and he opened his mouth, wanting to ask Gu Shiwei if taking him in would cause big trouble, but he didn't say anything. He just bowed down heavily and tried to remember this moment in his heart.

How could he not cause trouble?

Gu Shiwei was from the Imperial City Department. If she wanted to find someone to look after Chen Shenji on the road, it would not be difficult, and a deal with Chu Liangchen was not necessary.

She was helping them and even taking care of his poor self-esteem.

Although Wang Jing is young, he also understands that Gu Shiwei is not the governor of Kaifeng after all. If Chu Liangchen surrenders, she may not be able to go to the place of exile alive as she wishes.Both adults knew this matter very well, but they had a tacit agreement not to mention it.

He understands everything.

Neither relatives nor friends, he was so lucky to meet two people who treated him like this.

……

At this hour, Bianjing, known as the city that never sleeps, was also dark.

The carriage drove through long streets one after another and finally arrived in front of the Kaifeng Mansion.

"Sir, today is not a holiday, nor is it snowing in June, why is it so lively in front of the government office? Could it be that the rumors are true? The governor of Kaifeng Prefecture is actually the judge of the underworld. He judges people in the sun during the day and in hell at night. Judgment of ghosts?"

Gu Shiwei narrowed his eyes and looked towards the front of the government office.

I saw that all the government officials stayed up most of the night, standing neatly in front of the door with lanterns, lighting up the area as bright as day.

Wu Jiang stood in the center of the gate full of energy. He was wearing a red brocade robe and a jade crown, with an anxious look on his face, like a groom standing in front of the door to welcome the bride.

"Judge people during the day and ghosts at night? You have to work twelve hours a day. It's a miracle that the governor of Kaifeng is still alive!"

"Maybe it's Wu Tuiguan marrying the ghost bride. Let's just prepare for a wedding banquet."

Jing Li's eyes widened after hearing Gu Shiwei's words. He stopped the carriage far away and stared at Wu Jiang again and again.

"Sir, do we have to give silver as a gift, or do we have to give money to ghosts?"

Gu Shiwei looked at his serious look and said to Jing Li speechlessly, "I just said it casually, it's not true. Where are the ghosts in this world?"

Jing Li turned his head in surprise, "Don't you know, sir? About Wu Tuiguan's old story?"

As he spoke, he turned around and ran back a street without waiting for Gu Shiwei's reaction. He stopped just now and started talking to Gu Shinwei enthusiastically.

"Once upon a time in Wujiang, there was a girl who was engaged. She was the third wife of General Ma's house, and her name was Ma Hongying. Ma Hongying went to the battlefield with her father when she was ten years old, and she wielded a pair of big purple-gold copper hammers!"

"Last year's Yanmen War! Ma Hongying and Wu Jiang served as vanguards. Ma Hongying died in the battle, and Wu Jiang returned to Bianjing from the border and became a promotion official in Kaifeng Prefecture."

"So, Wu Jiang might really be marrying the ghost bride Ma Hongying in the middle of the night! His father is far away at the border, and his uncle is the master, so it's a good match!"

Gu Shiwei's heart was slightly shaken. She wanted to ask about Wu Jiang, but she didn't have time yet.

"The ghost bride is impossible. In all likelihood, he got advice from Han Shiyan and was waiting for us to come to our door. But does everyone in Bianjing know about Ma Hongying and Wu Jiang? Or did the Imperial City Secretary secretly investigate Wu Jiang? ?”

Jing Li looked around and lowered his voice, "In the battle at Yanmen Pass, the casualties of the vanguard army were too heavy. And the Wu and Ma families are getting married..."

When Jing Li said this, he pointed to the sky, "If you become more powerful, you may have different ideas!" "You haven't received any tasks when you first came here. You will know after waiting for a long time. What we do every day is to lie on the roof of other people's houses and listen to the wall. Jiao! The matter between Ma Hongying and Wu Jiang was investigated by Commander Zhai Di, and I have been working under him before."

Jing Li's voice was so low that only two of them could hear it.

Gu Shiwei looked at his excited face and seriously suspected that he didn't go to make incense and came to the Imperial City Department to be an unknown soldier. He clearly wanted to obey orders and just listen to the wall!

She thought and stopped Jing Li's tirade, "Let's get off the car here, and you go back to Sangzi Lane. Chu Liangchen went to Kaifeng Mansion by himself. The man dancing in front of the door is Wu Jiang. You heard his voice underground. .”

Gu Shiwei said, tapping his feet lightly, and walked straight to Wujiang's small courtyard.

She had been there before when Chen Shenji sent the murder notice letter and was deeply impressed by that place.

Chu Liangchen heard the sound and gently patted Wang Jing's shoulder, "Live well."

After saying that, he jumped off the carriage and walked step by step towards the gate of Kaifeng Mansion...

Fortunately, there was no second wave of people to assassinate him along the way.

Gu Shiwei saw Chu Liangchen meet Wu Jiang, and was twisted by the government servants swarming him, and then he jumped into the courtyard with a slight jump.

"For the sake of my family, do you want to eat the sugar-wrapped chestnuts?"

Gu Shiwei had just landed and was startled by the sudden sound. She turned her head and saw Han Shiyan sitting in a shadowed corner of the courtyard.

He was wearing cyan casual clothes and no crown. He looked much more amiable than usual. There was a small stove in front of him.There was a small pot on the small stove, and sugar was boiling in the pot.

Next to the small pot, there is a copper basin with many skewers strung in it.

There were about five or six golden dried chestnuts tied on top of a bunch. The shells were removed and the skins were peeled off. They looked particularly attractive.

Han Shiyan picked up a bunch of chestnuts, wrapped them in the sugar pot, and handed them to Gu Shinwei, "Try them."

Gu Shiwei took a deep breath and took it unceremoniously, "Other people turn into bones when they die, and you probably can only turn into a candy man when you die. You asked Wu Jiang to wait for me in front of the door? He puts up such a big fight. , if I don’t come, won’t it be over?”

Han Shiyan shook his head, "It doesn't matter, it's not my face that's embarrassing."

Gu Shinwei burst out laughing when she heard this. She pulled up a small stool and sat down opposite Han Shiyan. She picked up the second bunch of chestnuts familiarly and wrapped them in the copper basin like Han Shiyan did.

The candy is hot and has a fresh taste when wrapped around the chestnuts.

"Today you went to check after Chen Shenji's letter was sent to Wang Quan. At what point did the news leak out? Did you find anything new?"

Han Shiyan took a bite of chestnuts leisurely and said, "Didn't Jing Li tell you when he got back?"

Gu Shiwei rolled her eyes at him, "Wu Jiang didn't tell you when he came back? Why are you still waiting here?"

Han Shiyan's story.

What could he say?I didn't go to Wujiang at all. Except for the bad luck when I came back, I met some mountain people selling wild chestnuts they had hoarded. I asked a lot of questions and got the name Chu Liangchen?
It would be faster to divide the troops into two groups, but it would be enough for him to be on both sides with little care.

As he thought about it, he thought of Jing Li, and felt a lot more balanced in his heart.

"After Wang Quan received the letter, a female family member came to the shop."
