Chapter 37 Captured
Gu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately bent down to pick up the umbrella from the ground, and propped it up for Yinzhen.

He has hands and feet, why does he want her to help him hold the umbrella?
"Fourth brother."

Su Peisheng happened to appear in front of the two at this moment.

Behind him, stood a plump eunuch.With his head down, his body trembled slightly.

"Raise your head." Yinzhen looked at the mellow eunuch with a cold voice.

"Slave... is the eunuch on duty tonight." Eunuch Yuanrun looked up at Yinzhen, and surprisingly...it was that little Chunzi's master, Eunuch Ying.

Eunuch Ying glanced at Yinzhen, and then at Gu Qinghuan who was beside Yinzhen.

When he saw Gu Qinghuan, his pupils shrank a little, and he quickly shifted his gaze to the side.

"I don't know why the fourth elder brother is here, why?"

"Come and catch someone."

Yinzhen left these words without saying clearly, turned around and strode towards the only one among the many houses that was still lit by candlelight.

Gu Qing understood and handed the umbrella to Su Peisheng in a hurry.

When it comes to holding an umbrella for the fourth elder brother, Su Peisheng is expected to do it more smoothly.

When Su Peisheng took the umbrella from Gu Qinghuan's hand, he felt that the back of the master in front of him was slightly stiff, and there was an indescribable something wrong.

A group of four quickly arrived at the front of the house with the candles on.

Because they heard the hurried footsteps outside the house, the people inside lowered their voices and asked, "Who is it?"

Sure enough, it was Xiao Chunzi's voice.

Gu Qinghuan nodded to Yinzhen, and whispered: "It's Xiao Chunzi."

When Yinzhen heard this, he didn't answer, and kicked the door open with his foot.

The little Chunzi in the house was startled, and before she had time to put on her clothes, she immediately wanted to come over to check what was going on.

The moment Xiaochunzi saw Yinzhen, he fell to his knees.

"Four...four brothers? It's so late..."

Of course Yinzhen would not wait for Xiao Chunzi to finish speaking, and immediately entered the room, and indeed saw a soaked winter coat on the table.

Even... still dripping.

And in an inconspicuous place under the winter coat, there was a button missing.

By now, the situation has become obvious.

The person who went to the well after Xiaowenzi was Xiaochunzi.

"Do you recognize this purse?"

Yinzhen took out the purse from his sleeve and threw it in front of Xiao Chunzi.

Xiao Chunzi's face was ashen, and he could no longer speak.

"Su Peisheng, take him away!"

As soon as Yinzhen gave an order, Su Peisheng immediately stepped forward and tied up Xiao Chunzi.

"And him."

Yinzhen glanced at Eunuch Ying again, and said, "In this palace, there are actually eunuchs walking around at night. You are not qualified to be an eunuch on duty at night."

"The slave doesn't know anything, the slave really doesn't know anything!"

Ying Gonggong knelt down and begged for mercy, but Yinzhen ignored him at all.Just looking at Su Peisheng like this, he tied the two people together firmly and took them away.

The snow is still falling with great momentum.

Walking on the palace road, stepping on the soft snowflakes, for the first time, Gu Qinghuan felt a little bit of solidity.

Both Eunuch Ying and Xiao Chunzi were arrested.Next, will Suiyuan be far behind?
"Fourth brother."

Gu Qinghuan quietly looked at Yinzhen beside him.

His face was a little gloomy, and it was obvious that he was not happy to have caught the murderer.

Involuntarily, Gu Qinghuan, who was holding an umbrella for Yinzhen, became more careful.

"Huh?" Yinzhen responded softly.Although the voice sounded a little low, it was actually able to make people feel a trace of inexplicable tenderness.

"How does the fourth elder brother plan to deal with these two people?"

After Gu Qinghuan finished asking, he glanced at the two tightly bound people behind him.

Su Peisheng is amazing.

The man looked young, and he was able to twist and turn the two of them with ease.

"What the law is supposed to do, that's how it should be done."

Yinzhen said indifferently: "Kill people to pay for their lives. They killed Xiuying, so naturally they have to pay for Xiuying's lives."

"Then... what's behind them?"

Gu Qinghuan asked again tentatively.

Yinzhen didn't change his face, and said: "Of course it's the same reason."

Gu Qinghuan nodded, feeling a little relieved.

Yinzhen noticed the expression of the little maid beside him, and said, "Just one thing, I want to tell you."

"Ah."

"Before you have enough strength, facing a powerful enemy. Forbearance is a good choice."

Gu Qinghuan's expression moved slightly, and he understood a little.

Even if Eunuch Ying and Xiao Chunzi are captured, they still can't move Suiyuan down?

or...

Aunt Shuyi who supported Suiyuan, or even Concubine De?

"Thank you for your teaching, Si Age."

Gu Qinghuan nodded vigorously, and said again: "But no matter what, thank you for tonight's matter."

Thank him for being so cooperative with me.

Yinzhen nodded lightly to express his gratitude for receiving Gu Qinghuan's gratitude, and then said nothing more.

That night, after Su Peisheng brought Eunuch Ying and Xiao Chunzi back to Elder Brother's Office, he interrogated the two prisoners overnight and got a consistent confession.

The two of them conspired to kill Xiuying because they couldn't understand Xiuying.

As a witness, Xiaowenzi also identified the blurry figure seen that night as that of Xiaochunzi.

In this way, with all the witnesses and material evidence, Xiao Chunzi and Eunuch Ying naturally have nothing to deny.

The next morning.

Gu Qinghuan opened his eyes and looked at the sunlight outside the window.

After a night of heavy snow, the rare weather cleared up.

"Wow--"

Yaqi fetched water from the outside and came in, saw Gu Qinghuan and said, "Did you steal chickens in the middle of the night? Why do you look so haggard?"

"Hehehe..."

Gu Qinghuan smiled awkwardly, and said: "I had a dream last night. I dreamed that I went out to face the snow. I also met the fourth elder brother. I taught him a lesson."

"Later I woke up with a fright and didn't sleep well."

"... "

Yaqi widened her eyes, thought about it seriously, and said, "I think...Although the fourth elder brother looks a little more serious, he probably won't admonish people casually."

"You don't have to... be so scared, do you?"

"You're right." Gu Qinghuan smiled again, and said, "I'll wash up first, save some food for me."

"rest assured!"

Yaqi went to the door and brought in another tray, and said, "All the food is reserved for you. By the way, I heard something big this morning."

"What's the big deal?"

"I heard about the person who killed Xiuying's sister."

At this moment.

Yinzhen, who was sitting in front of the table, sneezed loudly.

"Ah-"

Could it be that someone was speaking ill of him behind his back?
