The county magistrate didn't dare to go directly to the hut at the inn where Su Jing and the others were staying, and ran to another restaurant at the end of the street to borrow the hut.Haven't come out of the hut yet.Just listen to the head catcher rushing over to report.

"Master, it's bad. Someone assassinated Mr. Su, but he failed and took Mr. Su hostage."

"What?" The county magistrate quickly pulled up his pants, this young master must not have any accidents in his territory.He had heard that this God of Wealth was Su Yushi's treasure, and he grew up spoiled.If the oily skin is scratched a little, it will kill him.What's more, King Jing is here, punishing him for a crime of lax governance.He can't eat and walk around. "Hurry up and take someone to have a look, it's important to save people."

"What about you, my lord?"

"I'm going too, hurry up and don't dawdle." The magistrate rushed out with his trousers in his hands.

"Adult manners."

The county magistrate doesn't care about his manners, life matters at this time.Climb into the carriage in twos and threes.Ask the servants.

"Hurry up and save people."

I have to say that although Su Jing and the others were in danger, all of this happened in the blink of an eye. When the county magistrate and others arrived, they saw five ruffians being slapped in the mouth.The county magistrate knew Gu Quan well.Step forward and hand in hand.

"My lord, is Mr. Su well?"

"En." Gu Quan looked up at him.Knowing that he is the county magistrate, he should give some face.Nodded and hummed.The county magistrate didn't know that this person's reaction was already a big face to the sky.I just feel ashamed. This Lord's attitude is probably because the Lord thinks that they are not doing their job well.Even more cautious.

"Can I ask to see the prince?" But Gu Quan didn't give a response for a long time.The county magistrate wiped his sweat.What did he do wrong again?

The guard next to him couldn't stand it, so he said directly, "My lord, please wait first, our prince and Mr. Su are eating. I don't like being disturbed while eating."

"Thank you, my lord, for your clarification. Then I'll wait." The county magistrate wiped the sweat from his forehead.Catcher went up and secretly stretched out the hem of the clothes for the county magistrate.I was too anxious just now, and I was still tucked in my pants.

Gu Quan watched with a cold face as the five hooligans were beaten.The magistrate of the county will also come and ask the head arrester to investigate, "Go and find out who they have been close to recently."

The head catcher is a local, and he knows these gangsters very well, and he often deals with them. He usually does petty theft, and every time he teaches them a lesson.This time, I don't know if the lard was fooled, how did it get together with the assassination.Quickly nodded. "yes."

Then take someone to find out who these hooligans have been close to recently.It's convenient to report to the prince later.

Gu Liang in the house knew about the movement outside, but he was somewhat angry with the county magistrate, who was too useless to handle anything well.unwilling to take care of him.Seeing that he didn't move his chopsticks for a long time, Su Jing stretched out his chopsticks and added some dishes to him, and put them in his bowl.

"Eat something, you haven't eaten in the morning."

"Yeah." Gu Liang saw that Su Jing was serving food for him, and he ate with dignity.But it looks like it's in a bad mood.Lose your mind while eating.

"You will know who did it after a trial. Don't think about it, eat honestly."

"En." Gu Liang nodded in response.

Seeing him like this, Su Jing panicked and ate little, eating a meal like chewing wax.Su Jing quickly put down his chopsticks and said that he was full.

"I'm done eating, go get busy. I'm going back to the inn to rest."

"I'll go with you."

"Okay." Su Jing didn't refuse this time, not because he was afraid, but because he wanted Gu Liang to feel at ease.

Back at the inn, Su Jing drank some tea, chatted with Gu Liang, and went to bed.Gu Liang desperately wanted to accompany him, but Su Jing didn't refuse this time, nestling in Gu Liang's arms, Su Jing soon fell asleep.I slept soundly.

After experiencing the assassination at noon, Gu Liang felt that Su Jing would have a nightmare.But he underestimated Su Jing's boldness.and good psychological quality.Su Jing slept very soundly.Gu Liang applied medicine to his ears, but Su Jing didn't even wake up.Finish the medicine.Gu Liang soon became sleepy while holding Su Jing in his arms, and fell into a deep sleep.

The guard came to report, but was stopped by Geng Zhi.

"The county magistrate wants to see you. Can Brother Geng let me know?"

"Both of you are resting. Let the magistrate come back in the evening." No one can disturb his young master's rest.

"Yes."

The guard went to pass the message.Yuexue and Yueying just woke up.I heard that the son was assassinated.I hurried over to check it out.He was stopped outside by Geng Zhi.

"My lord has nothing to do. Don't disturb me now."

"It scared us to death, it's all our fault for sleeping." Yuexue stamped her feet in regret, why did he fall asleep just now.If he was with his master, he could at least block a sword.

"I didn't help much at the time. It was also an accident. I don't think the two masters ate much at noon. I guess they didn't have any appetite. The two sisters worked hard and cooked some of the two masters' favorite food. When they wake up, they will rest up abdomen."

"Okay, leave these to us. We will keep an eye on the whole process to prevent any tampering." Yueying patted her chest and promised,

"It's time to be more cautious. Thank you two sisters."

"Where is it? Our responsibility." The two girls went to the kitchen to prepare food.Geng Zhi stood guard at the door like a door god.

The county magistrate who got the news did not dare to go back to the county office.Worrying about another side issue.I took a bite directly at the inn.Just sitting downstairs waiting for the news, while waiting for the letter from the head arrester.While waiting for Gu Liang's summoning.One wait is one afternoon.

Su Jing woke up first.He still rested late last night.Gu Liang stayed up in the middle of the night and was frightened all afternoon, but he didn't wake up.Su Jing got up slowly, not wanting to disturb Gu Liang.Pull up the quilt for him.out the door.

Geng Zhi saw that the master woke up and fetched water to serve him.Dress neatly.

Only then did Geng Zhi speak, "Master, the county magistrate of Xile Town has been waiting below all afternoon. Did you see him?"

"See you. Find a secluded room. Don't affect the prince's rest."

"Yes."

Straightforward to arrange.Gu Leng took the upright position and stood beside Su Jing.

"Recovered?" Seeing him coming out, Su Jing looked up at him?

"Well, I'm just a little bit out of strength, you know that."

"How can I not know about such a heroic deed? Do you know that you are wrong?" Su Jing's tone became serious. "As a shadow guard, do you know what your responsibilities are?"

"This subordinate knows he was wrong." Gu Leng knelt down on one knee. "Subordinates should put His Highness Prince Jing's safety first."

"It's good to know. The one who usually smiles is your Prince Jing who treats you as brothers. But it's not the reason for your willfulness. Just kill two insignificant robbers. Why do you implicate Gu Liang? Ever since you left the capital, you have committed crimes." How many times have you made a mistake? It was a trivial matter before, and I pleaded with Gu Liang for you to avoid punishment. Tolerance is not connivance, you know."

"This subordinate knows." Gu Leng was ashamed.He knew that he had been a little unscrupulous recently.Forget your duty.

"It's good to know. The punishment is up to the prince to decide, and I will not interfere this time."

"Yes. The subordinate understands."

"Come with me to meet the magistrate." After Su Jing beat him, Gu Leng stood up and went to see the magistrate.In fact, he was also to blame, his womanly benevolence hurt Gu Liang.Let others feel that making a mistake can make Su Jing intercede.Instead, be negligent.Gu Liang lost his prestige.It makes people feel that Gu Liang is not that powerful and can test the bottom line. This is why someone dares to assassinate him openly after leaving Beijing.Any clown would dare to try it.This is not what he wants.Now that you know where the problem is, fix it.He didn't want the gutter to capsize.Deadly aggrieved.

Su Jing entered the room arranged by Geng Zhi, and the county magistrate was already waiting there.Seeing Su Jing coming in, he stepped forward and bowed.Although Su Jing has an official position, it is just a vain position with no real power. Normal colleagues' etiquette is fine, and there is no need to kneel down to pay homage like Prince Jing.

"See Mr. Su."

"You don't need to be too polite." Su Jing sat in the first place habitually.Pointing to the chair next to him, "Sir, please sit down."

Compared to Prince Jing, he is a disgrace.Su Jing's way of handling things is too gentle.The county magistrate thought he would be as difficult as Prince Jing, so he was already prepared.Seeing that Su Jing was so talkative, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you Su Gongzi."

"Drink tea, my lord. This is the best Yuqian Longjing. Try it, it tastes good."

The county magistrate lowered his head and took a sip. The tea that Geng Zhi served just now tasted really good, and it was as good as what he usually drank.

"Good tea. Today is thanks to Mr. Su's honor to drink such good tea."

"As long as the magistrate likes it." Su Jing smiled and continued to ask, "I don't know what the magistrate is asking to see?"

"The lower officials are not strict in governing the government. There are villains, and Mr. Su is in danger. I can't escape the responsibility." The county magistrate hurriedly pleaded guilty, and his attitude was extremely low, just to give Su Jing face and make him feel bad. Take the opportunity to play.

"Where is the county magistrate, this gangster must have been ordered by someone, and there is no such thing as the county magistrate." Su Jing rarely patiently pretended to be false.A county magistrate is too worried, what does it have to do with you, you also look innocent.

The county magistrate was secretly happy, and silently wiped the sweat from his brow, this Mr. Su is still easier to deal with than the prince.

"Drink tea, drink tea." Su Jing persuaded the county magistrate, smiling and amiable.The conversation suddenly changed.asked. "The county magistrate is a Jinshi in the second year of Guangdao."

"Yes, Mr. Su..." How do you know.The county magistrate tensed up.

"That's right. I heard that the Minister of Rites, Mr. Zheng Ping, was the examiner that year?" Su Jing continued to drink tea.

"Yes. It's Mr. Zheng Ping, the chief examiner." The county magistrate smiled mischievously.

"Lord Chu, I heard that the imperial court allocated 10 taels of silver for the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and the messengers who escorted the silver are going to your Xile Town? Huh?" Su Jing said.Master Chu, the county magistrate of Xile Town, was so frightened that he piled up on the ground.Don't say a word.Kowtow to Su Jing bang bang.

"Your Excellency, I heard the saying that if you want others to be unaware, you must do nothing about it."

"Lord Su, the villain was just confused for a while. Please show me your hand. Please, please." Master Chu never knew that what he did in private was a year ago, but today it was revealed.Lord Chu begged for mercy frequently in fear.
