I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 237 Gu Tuo Was Arrested
Sure enough, the examination room over there had already opened the gate, and two yamen servants came out, and one of them picked up a gong and slammed it down.

clang--

The clear sound of the gong instantly resounded over the county government office.

"All candidates, line up and enter!"

Gu Yuanlong quickly took a box containing pens, inks, papers and inkstones from Gu Tuo's hand, and he smiled confidently at his family members: "Father, mother, siblings, aunt, you can rest assured and wait for me to return from victory!"

Seeing this little guy merge into the crowd, he was soon surrounded by candidates who rushed to line up behind him.And he is only ten years old, although he is considered tall among his peers, but standing with those who are at least ten years old, he is the shortest one.

Soon, he was buried by the crowd.

But even so, Xia Ying still stood on the periphery, she patiently watched the team move forward slowly, and at the same time calculated in her mind how far Gu Yuanlong was from entering the arena.

However, Gu Yuanlong hadn't been in the queue for a long time, and suddenly saw several officials coming over aggressively.

"Who is Gu Tuo?"

A man yelled at the top of his voice.

Xia Ying narrowed her eyes slightly, and she immediately exchanged glances with Gu Tuo.

"Don't worry, it's okay." He said softly, and stood up on his own initiative.

"If you're looking for Gu Tuo from Gujia Village, Changshou Town, it's me."

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were directed towards him, and even some candidates who were queuing up couldn't help but look back.

The officer immediately strode over. "It's you I'm looking for!"

He took out a pair of shackles. "Someone sued you for escaping from the prison without permission, and now the magistrate ordered me to come and arrest you and bring you to justice."

Was it actually ordered by the magistrate?

Of course Xia Ying knew that the one who was still serving as the magistrate of Jiangbian Province was the magistrate Huang who caused the ruin of Gu Ji's family back then.But now that the magistrate Huang is about to leave his post, and the transfer letter from the imperial court has arrived, why would he suddenly attack and investigate an old case from three years ago?
Moreover, Gu Tuo has been honest and responsible in the past few years, he has never gone to Huang Zhifu to show his presence!

and so……

She immediately thought of it!

It's Yan Saburo!

That guy created such a big momentum in the provincial capital, how could Huang Zhifu not know about it?
Originally, Yan Sanlang planned to use this public opinion to force Gu Tuo out of the mountain, and then used him as a stepping stone.But seeing that Gu Tuo turned to pull Ye Changwen over as his backer, he didn't dare to do it directly.

But this person has been planning so hard for so long, how could he just give up?

So, since Gu Tuo can have a backer, of course he can too!

He simply brought in someone whom Ye Changwen couldn't afford to mess with - Prefect Huang!

Huang Zhifu already had a grudge against Gu Ji, so Yan Sanlang only needs to go to him to provoke him and give him some benefits, so he won't worry if he doesn't do anything!

And the timing he chose was extremely ingenious - the officers and soldiers appeared just before Gu Yuanlong entered the examination room!
If Yan Sanlang and Huang Zhifu didn't do it on purpose, she wouldn't believe it.

But in the blink of an eye, she had figured out the plan of this group of people: firstly, they wanted to deal with Gu Tuo, and secondly, they wanted to completely cut off their family's retreat!
So they specially chose this time so that Gu Tuo couldn't escape. Gu Yuanlong saw his father being taken away by the government, and also knew that his father was taken away because of the events of the year, so he must be very flustered.

So……

He will definitely not be able to calm down to answer the questions in the next exam!
These guys are so cruel!
After Gu Tuo heard what the official said, he frowned, but he didn't resist the official's move to put him in shackles.

Xia Ying's reaction was to quickly jump out and shout: "Master Guan, what you said has nothing to do with me! I only married into their family the year before last, and I didn't know anything before that, I was innocent! So You just have to catch him alone, but don't implicate me!"

The people around immediately roared, and they all scolded Xia Ying!
Even the officials looked at her with deep contempt in their eyes.

"Don't worry, we still know this. So we won't implicate you, let's go!"

Xia Ying was in a hurry to thank you.

"By the way, there are still these children..." She turned to look at Gu Yuanhaofu and Xiao Qi behind her.

Official difference begins. "It's just a few puppies. Why do we arrest them and send them to prison? The magistrate only told us to arrest Gu Tuo alone!"

Of course, what Huang Zhifu said at the time was not so generous.His exact words were——

"It's enough to catch that Gu Tuo. As for his little brats, if I continue to kill them all, it will be too ruthless. I want to continue to climb up! Then let go of those little ones, and it will be regarded as doing good deeds!"

Yan Sanlang hurriedly praised loudly: "Master Zhifu, you are really an honest and kind person! When Gu Ji did such evil things back then, you are still willing to let those three children go now. You are too generous!"

"It's just that those children are so young. Without their father as a pillar, they live on the streets begging, and are picked up and sold as slaves. That's their fate. Anyway, they can keep one Fate, that's enough!"

They plan to let a few immature children directly fend for themselves, and it would be best for them to die tragically after being tortured one by one!
"Ah, is that so?" Xia Ying suddenly slumped her shoulders.

She looked very reluctant to accept these little guys.

When the officials saw this, they sneered again and pulled Gu Tuo. "Let's go! Go to the provincial capital for trial!"

Gu Tuo followed them blankly.

Until he was taken away, Xia Ying stood far away, trying her best to keep a distance from him.

But when the person was completely out of sight, she quickly hugged Xiao Qi, and then told Gu Yuanhao: "Brother Hao, take my sister, let's go find your uncle!"

Gu Tuo's affairs are tricky, but their ability is limited, so now they can only ask Song Jinyan to inquire about the news!

Seeing this, Gu Yuanhao was stunned. "Mother, didn't you say that you have nothing to do with Dad?"

"I was bluffing them! Otherwise, how can we relax their vigilance?" Xia Ying said, and she hurriedly pulled the little guy up, "Let's go! Time is running out, there is no need to delay!"

"But brother..."

"I've already prepared all the pens, inks, papers and inkstones for the exam, and there's food in the box, which is enough for him for five days. We can't help you with exams, so it's pointless to stand here and wait. Just let him toss around slowly! We're almost done with your father's work, and we can pick him up, which is great!"

Xia Ying gave Gu Yuanlong complete trust, and then dragged the three children away without any scruples.

As for Gu Yuanlong who is still in line?

No matter how the strange eyes around him looked at him, the little guy remained indifferent.

When it was his turn, he handed over the certificate, and after passing the inspection, he put on the box, walked into the examination room with his head held high, and sat down firmly.
