The Heavens: Starting from the Flowing Gold

Chapter 131: Oppression of Evil Servant
After the fire, a heavy rain washed away all traces.

"Who are you? Why did you save me?"

Gu Qianfan did not forget that he had met these two men in the tea shop before. He originally thought that he was just an ordinary person who knew one or two tricks, but the fact that he could block darts and use accurate archery just now showed that he was not an ordinary businessman.

"Passerby, I need your help with something."

Zhao Pan'er said from the side, "You guys are not really protecting each other, are you?"

"What do you know?"

Zhao Pan'er was able to discover the identities of those people, so as the commander of the Imperial City Bureau, he could naturally see it.

Those people are imperial guards, not ordinary thieves.

The target was not their Imperial City Division, but Yang Yunpan.

"It's very simple. Whether it's the weapons or the shoes they used, there's no doubt that they are from your government. They were so careless and obviously didn't want to let anyone leave alive.

I'm sure they will react soon, and by then I'm afraid your situation will be in danger."

Gu Qianfan also understood, “I will repay you for saving my life one day.

I have to go now.”

Now that it has been confirmed that the person is a government official, we must find evidence, sufficient and irrefutable evidence.

With this period of rest, his strength has been restored a little, and movement is no longer a problem.

"Madam Zhao, let me take you back."

Gu Qianfan doesn't need to worry too much, and he can't give her what she wants now, so it's better to send Zhao Pan'er back safely.

A weak woman, after such a thrilling night and being caught in a heavy rain, her face had turned pale and she looked weak to the core.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor."

Zhao Pan'er felt weak, and this place was a long distance away from the tea shop.

If I walked back alone, I was really afraid of fainting on the road.

Gu Yi also supported her and walked slowly towards the tea shop, and the bow and long sword on his body were naturally hidden by him.

Fortunately, the tea shop was right by the river, and the two of them went down the river without meeting any pedestrians on the road. After all, it was still early.

"My benefactor, come in and have a cup of tea to warm yourself up."

Zhao Paner tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her movements were very natural.

"Good work."

Gu Yi didn't have anywhere good to go. After finishing this cup of tea, he should go find Gu Qianfan. He still needed to get his identity certificate as soon as possible.

Just took a sip.

An old man came from a distance and came to the door.

Looking at the old man outside, a hint of joy flashed in Zhao Pan'er's eyes.

Ran outside immediately.

"Uncle De, where's Ouyang? Is he okay? Did he fail the exam again?"

After asking three questions in a row, Zhao Paner's heart was full of expectations.

"Oh, how can that be possible.

I have been personally selected by the Emperor in the Jiying Palace and have become the current top scholar."

Zhao Paner covered her mouth with her hands. All the fatigue of the night disappeared at this moment. The three years of anticipation finally came true.

He hurriedly pulled Uncle De in.

"Pan'er, you're finally back. You made me worry all night."

Sun Sanniang also rushed in and saw Uncle De standing in the yard.

"Uncle De, you're back.

What about Ouyang Xu? Did he pass the exam this time?"

"Ouyang is already the third place winner."

Zhao Paner said happily.

But before Sun Sanniang could speak, Uncle De spoke arrogantly.

"I won't hide it from you. My master has been betrothed to the daughter of Observer Gao by Consort Xian, and the marriage will be held after Grain Rain.

Madam Zhao, I am here this time to get the Tongxin Pei back for my master."

Uncle De also stated his purpose.

The other things are not important, but the Tongxin Pei is a family heirloom, so naturally I have to take it back.

"The master also wanted me to send back eighty taels of gold as a token of his gratitude for your care for him over the past three years."

Zhao Pan'er was not injured this time. Although she was weak, she did not faint from the blow.

Just a little unsteady on his feet.

"Even if they are royal relatives, they cannot condone relatives from outside the family to seize someone's wife. But Ouyang Xu and I were engaged first. Even if the virtuous concubine has a high status, Ouyang only needs to say a word and everything will be fine."

Zhao Pan'er was clear-headed and her eyes were always on Uncle De.

I want to hear what he says.

“Madam Zhao, you said you had an engagement.

It could be the parents' order, the matchmaker's words, or a marriage certificate.

It's just a verbal agreement, how can it be a marriage contract?

It was just a joke. To be honest, Madam Zhao, you know your origins. A lady of a jinshi degree wearing a phoenix crown and a red robe is not worthy of an official prostitute. "

Zhao Pan'er felt her heart tremble and her liver and gallbladder were broken, and her hands that were supporting the pillar could not stop shaking.

The identity of a courtesan is what she cares about the most, but also the past that she least wants to recall.

"What a heartless, greedy, and unfaithful man."

Gu Yi walked out of the tea shop with a hint of sarcasm on his face.

What a show.

"Who are you to dare to insult the current Jinshi? What crime should you be punished for?"

Uncle De shouted sternly.

"Insults? I'm just speaking the truth. Even if you want to cancel the engagement, why don't you send a servant or even write a letter? Are you afraid of being caught?"

Gu Yi walked down the stairs step by step, looking at the old servant.

"you you…"

Uncle De pointed at Gu Yi for a long time and couldn't say a word. He didn't expect that his thoughts were completely guessed.

Sun Sanniang, who was standing by, naturally had not forgotten the guest who had helped her out yesterday, but she just didn't understand why he was still here today.

Look at Pan'er.

Zhao Paner shook her head slightly at her.

"What do you mean by 'you'? You were speaking righteously just now, and you still look down on other people's identities.

Do you think your status can get any better?

I am just a servant, and I have no right to bark here.

Although he was a scholar, he broke off the engagement on the grounds that it was just a verbal agreement and flatly denied it.

Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness, the teachings of the sages have been read into the stomachs of dogs. "

Gu Yi's remarks immediately impressed Sun Sanniang. She didn't expect that he was not only good at martial arts, but also so good at speaking.

"My master will definitely not let go of what happened today. Do you dare to leave your name?"

Uncle De is not afraid at all.

His master is about to rise to the top and become a relative of the virtuous concubine, so his future is limitless.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for your master in the Imperial City Division."

Gu Yi took out a golden token from his arms and smashed it directly on his face.

"Ouch."

Uncle De cried out in pain and covered his forehead.

However, when he lowered his head, he saw the token fallen on the ground, with three big words "Imperial City Bureau" written on it.

hiss~
Uncle De sucked in a breath of cold air. It was too confusing that this fair-skinned young man in front of him, who looked like he had never done any heavy work, could be a man like the ruthless Emperor in the Imperial City Bureau.

"Please spare my life, sir. I was just possessed by a ghost for a moment and did not mean to offend you.

Please show some mercy, sir."

Uncle De immediately knelt down with his head pressed tightly against the ground, not caring at all about the wet soil.

The Imperial City Bureau never looks at evidence when arresting people. Once you are arrested, there is no hope of getting out safely.

"Why, now you don't want your son who has won the imperial examination to trouble me."

Gu Yi curled the corners of her mouth and raised her foot to rest on the back of his hand.

Use slight force.

This kind of villain should be punished like this.

"I... just spoke nonsense before. I would never... dare to cause trouble to you, my Lord."

Uncle De was a bully to himself and only feared the strong. Now that he was frightened, he immediately panicked and stammered.

"Let him go."

Zhao Paner's voice came from behind.

Hearing this, Uncle De also hurriedly begged for mercy.

"My lord, please spare my life, my lord, please spare my life."

Gu Yi looked down at him and loosened his feet.

"Token."

Uncle De immediately acted like a pug, picking up the token on the ground and wiping off the dirt with his sleeve.

"grown ups."

He held both hands out in front of him respectfully.

"If you want the jade pendant, ask Ouyang Xu to get another 500 taels of gold."

Uncle De also nodded repeatedly. He never expected that he would meet the evil star of the Imperial City Bureau here.

"Are you also from the Imperial City Division?"

After Uncle De left, Zhao Pan'er's long eyelashes were trembling. She seemed unable to believe that the man who had saved her from danger several times was actually the Imperial City Official and the court's vicious dog who had caused her family to be destroyed.

There was a hint of distance in his tone.

Gu Yi naturally knew the reason.

The other side of the token was revealed in front of Zhao Paner.

"Gu Qianfan."
