Shopkeeper Jin whispered behind her: "Madam, Mr. Zhou is not someone who has the guts to kill people even if he is on good terms with you. What's more, Mr. Zhou is still an important minister in the court. If he has the idea of ​​​​killing people, it will be a disaster. Looking for death."

Shopkeeper Jin also noticed something was wrong, but Gu Yiyi had no choice at the moment.

Because behind this, there must be some internal affairs involved in the Chusiyuan.

If she rashly goes out to speak for him, the entire restaurant and her own family will be involved.

Master Zhang must have known everything behind it, so he made such a choice, and even in the last few sentences when he chose to take the blame, he completely left Gu Yiyi out of the incident.

This can be regarded as his last favor to Gu Yiyi.

She tightened her eyes and couldn't bear it.

When the official was about to escort him out of the restaurant, Gu Yiyi blended in with the crowd as the owner of the restaurant, came to him, and asked in a low voice very quickly.

"Master Zhang, is there still room for change in this matter?"

Master Zhang said with tears in his eyes: "If I don't bear this crime, madam, your whole family, as well as my whole family, will be involved and die. He... arranged this situation early in the morning.

I believed them credulously and thought it was just a cliché. I never thought that they were trying to kill someone with a knife. Madam, I cannot escape the death penalty, I just ask you... to help my family, Zhang... I am very grateful..."

Before he could finish his words, he was pulled out of the door by the officer!

He was never given another chance to speak.

Gu Yiyi chased him for a few steps before stopping.

Everyone watched as the official took him away, while some of the remaining people helped the Zhou family transport Zhou Hong's body back to the Zhou Mansion to take care of the funeral arrangements.

The restaurant was always crowded and became the focus of everyone's attention.

Gu Yiyi's heart was heavy. Before she could fully digest what Master Zhang said, she heard many people whispering outside.

She cheered up again and couldn't let Master Zhang's last kindness go to waste.

So he stood outside the door and opened his voice to justify his restaurant's name.

"Everyone, although there was a murder in my restaurant today, fortunately the truth has been revealed. It has nothing to do with our restaurant and I am also a victim in this incident.

Thanks to everyone's love and care for the restaurant, our restaurant will observe a moment of silence for Mr. Zhou and close the door for five days until Mr. Zhou is laid to rest. At that time, it will be re-cleaned and reopened.

I will be grateful to friends who are willing to patronize me. "

Listening to these words, others also agreed.

"It's unlucky to say the least, madam. This happened to your restaurant. It's false to say it's not unlucky. After five days of rest, you can go to the temple to worship Buddha."

"Yes, no one can do anything about it. What's wrong with the lady, and what's wrong with the restaurant?"

Seeing how everyone was talking about it, Gu Yiyi stopped wasting time with them.

She looked at Shopkeeper Wang and asked the servants to start cleaning the restaurant thoroughly, inside and out, in front of everyone, and then closed the door.

And she went to the backyard and talked to Shopkeeper Jin.

"Lao Jin, you can find some reliable people in the past two days and go to various markets to spread the word about how our restaurant was wronged and how you and I dealt with it. We must deal with Mr. Zhou's matter. The restaurant is clean and tidy.

I will write the specific words and send them to your Fanggui Tower later. You can find someone first. "

Shopkeeper Jin understood what she meant and nodded quickly: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely find some reliable people for those people. I also know that you want our restaurant not to be affected.

Before Zhang Da surrendered, he said it had nothing to do with our restaurant, so this matter should have little impact on us. "

After speaking, he guessed in a low voice: "Madam, Master Zhou's death...doesn't it have much to do with Master Zhang?"

"As you think, but I don't know what the specific story is. I guess that maybe someone in their Chusiyuan wanted to touch Mr. Zhou, so they asked Mr. Zhang to come out to entertain Zhou Hong, and asked Mr. Zhang to complete it in the name of a trick. Task.

Then he secretly colluded with the people on the scene to poison Zhou Hong, forcing Mr. Zhang to come out and take the blame. If he didn't take the blame, his whole family and everyone in our restaurant would die. "

When shopkeeper Jin heard this, his hair stood on end, and his whole back was covered with hair.

A wave of fear came over me, and the hairs on my body stood up: "My mother... didn't Master Zhang give us a hand before he died? God, Bodhisattva! It's okay, okay!"

Gu Yiyi did not say what Mr. Zhang secretly asked her to say, nor did she reveal the mastermind Xie Anze.

Since Mr. Zhang chose to take the blame, Xie Anze must have laid a complete trap behind the scenes, which is why the situation is unsolvable. Unless he takes the blame, others will still have a chance to survive.

The incident happened suddenly, and Gu Yiyi was unable to solve the situation and restore the truth in a short period of time.

I can only make a few more trips in the past two days to see if I can rescue Mr. Zhang.

But... Gu Yiyi remembered what Master Zhang asked her to do.

I have to go to the pine tree on the outskirts of the city to find the gift list, but what is in the gift list?

It was still handed over to the Third Prince Xiao Yan.

Is it possible that Xiao Yan knew about this?

Thinking of this, Gu Yiyi suddenly remembered something, so she stopped wasting time and asked a servant to bring a horse over to find Xiao Yan.

But as soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Master Mei driving a carriage in a hurry.

With a sound of "Oh~", he stopped the carriage and shouted: "Madam!"

Immediately afterwards, several little heads popped out of the carriage. Erbao, Sanbao and others immediately ran out of the carriage, ran towards Gu Yiyi, and then hugged her legs tightly.

"Mom! Mom, are you okay?!"

They must have heard about the restaurant, so they hurried over.

Then Shen Changfeng, who was wearing a hood, also got off the carriage.

Since he was in a hurry, he didn't even bother to disguise himself.

Being on this busy street really shocked Gu Yiyi.

She quickly took Shen Changfeng's hand and entered the restaurant, pulling him to the backyard room: "You can't show off your true colors outside. There are so many people here. What if someone with sharp eyes sees it?"

Shen Changfeng is not an ordinary person. His identity is very dangerous in this imperial city!

However, he didn't care at all. Instead, he looked Gu Yiyi up and down, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was really fine.

"Is the matter resolved?"

"Have you heard about it too?" After Gu Yiyi asked, Erbao and the others hurriedly came over and said.

"We have all heard. They said that someone died in my mother's restaurant, and he was a high official! We are anxious and eager to come over immediately, and we can't let anything happen to my mother!"

Gu Yiyi smiled slightly, touched their little heads, and said comfortingly.

"Mom is fine. How could something happen to me because of this? Don't forget that I am very powerful!"
