Thief and Concubine: The Princess Attacks the Overlord's Mansion

Chapter 353 Impartial Law Enforcement [9]

"The lower officials did as you ordered, and took some money to send those people out of the city, and let them leave Gusu as far as possible." The magistrate kept crying out for grievances.

Qian Shangshu narrowed his eyes, and said: "It seems that Xiao Ming is playing tricks again, asking us to send out our own rice grains, and also causing such a big trouble."

The prefect trembled all over, and said: "Qian Shangshu means that the prince already knows about our transfer of rice grain?"

"Nonsense, what if he doesn't know that he can come to trouble us so openly?" Qian Shangshu waved his hand and said, "You send someone to hide Mr. Gao's body, and you must not let the high officials find out. They can't find the body. , there is no definite evidence that Mr. Gao was killed here."

"Yes." The magistrate replied and stepped back.

Outside the door, a man dressed as a servant hid behind the tree trunk, and only slowly followed after the magistrate had walked for a while.

When Qian Shangshu came to the hall, he saw that Gao Yuanwai was already sitting on a chair with a wrinkled face, his expression was very unhappy.

"Oh, Gao Yuanwai, what kind of wind brought you here." Qian Shangshu stepped forward and laughed.

Gao Yuanwai waved his hand and said, "Qian Shangshu, how come you are the only one coming out, Mr. Zhifu?"

"He, he just went to the latrine, and he hasn't come out yet." Qian Shangshu said, "What's the matter, Gao Yuanwai has something to do with him?"

Gao Yuanwai didn't beat around the bush, after all, he asked about his son's important matter, so he said, "Qian Shangshu, you should have heard of the folklore about dogs. I wonder what answer Qian Shangshu will give me?"

Qian Shangshu chuckled, and said: "The folks have always been a place where three people become tigers, Gao Yuanwai won't just believe that."

"But Gouzi hasn't come home for several days. Although folks say that three people became tigers, it's not groundless." Gao Yuanwai insisted on an answer, and said, "Qian Shangshu, have you seen Gouzi?"

"This, the old man really doesn't have one."

Gao Yuanwai snorted and said, "In this case, we can only wait for the magistrate to come."

Sure enough, the magistrate came soon after, and the prefect's status was not as high as that of Qian Shangshu, so when he saw him, the high official became imposing, and went straight up and said, "Zhu Yuan, where is my son?"

The magistrate almost softened his feet and said the matter, but he cast his eyes away from Qian Shangshu, and said calmly: "Wai Gao Yuan, isn't your son staying at home?"

Gao Yuanwai waved his hand and said, "Don't pretend to be confused. My son came to Gusu to play a few days ago. You probably don't know. Tell me, where is my son?"

The magistrate nodded, and said: "Oh, after hearing what Gao Yuanwai said, I remembered that I saw Mr. Gao come out of Chunmanlou a few days ago. When he came out, he still had two beautiful girls in his arms. , very happy."

Gao Yuan looked embarrassed. Although this son is not good enough and spends his days in gambling houses and brothels, he is still his only son. He said: "Stop talking nonsense, let me ask you, Where is my son now?"

The magistrate was taken aback for a moment, and said, "This... I don't know about this, or should I order someone to look for Gao Yuanwai now?"

"Nonsense." Gao Yuanwai waved his hand and said, "I heard someone report that my son was killed and took his right heart a few days ago."
