The Lord of Rebirth is sick
Chapter 8
The boatman said with a smile: "Miss is right, that's exactly what it is. At that time, the stone lake will be full of boats, and there will be an endless stream of tourists. It will be very lively."
Wen Moxian glanced at Gu Liuxi, and said indifferently: "Although the view of the moon is strange, I prefer to watch the scenery of the stone lake in such a quiet and leisurely way. Although there are many people, it is afraid that the scenery on the lake will be obscured."
The boatman smiled heartily: "Young lady's words are not bad, at first glance, she is a person who likes to be quiet, but it's not suitable for a young lady when she's in the moon."
Gu Liuxi smiled slightly, and sat quietly on the boat with Wen Moxian.The boatman began to paddle the boat, and he sang a little song from the area of Gusu. He sang very deeply, and the tune was very melodious, which had a special taste in the night.
Because of Wen Mo Xian's body, the two of them didn't stay together for too long.On the way back, at first Gu Liuxi talked to her, but later she was afraid that she would be tired, so she concentrated on driving.When he arrived at the Su Mansion, he opened the curtain of the car, the man leaned against the cushion, his eyebrows slightly frowned, and he fell asleep.Seeing her still frowning in her sleep, Gu Liuxi felt pain in her heart and sighed deeply.Immediately, he gently picked her up and jumped steadily towards the Su mansion.
Gu Liuxi, Lin Yue, and Xue Zhiqian were sitting in a corner of Suzhou Chengxi Restaurant, Xue Zhiqian was a bit annoyed, and Lin Yue was also drinking wine angrily.
"Xue Butou, Lin Butou, in fact, this time they didn't get nothing, at least they caught his younger brother. Can you ask anything from him?"
Xue Zhiqian shook his head, "It's been three days. That man refused to speak! He is very protective of his brother, otherwise he would not deliberately pretend to be his brother and confuse our sight." Thinking of the scene that day, Xue Zhiqian became annoyed , if the thousand-faced fox hadn't suddenly appeared with a younger brother, they would have caught that guy!Now the yamen is getting tighter and tighter, if they fail, they will have to be suspended!
"Actually, it's my fault. I felt something was wrong when the pharmacy owner described it before, but I couldn't think about it. Even if I was injured, according to the kung fu of the thousand-faced fox, it is impossible for the soles of the feet to be covered with mud. It's too careless." Gu Liuxi Knowing that they were more depressed than before, I felt a pity in my heart.After taking a sip of the wine, he suddenly thought of Wen Moxian again, and felt a little lost. He hadn't seen her for a few days, and he didn't know how she was doing. When he went to find her, he was afraid that he would not be able to restrain himself, and would expose too much.According to her intelligence, she may have begun to doubt her purpose.
"That said, it's true, I never paid attention to it. Miss Gu, I think you are more suitable than me to be a fast arrester. No wonder my father keeps saying that I'm not made for this job. I'm far behind." Lin Yue Looking at Gu Liuxi, her eyes were full of admiration, and she couldn't help shaking her head.
Hearing what he said, Gu Liuxi put away her thoughts and just smiled. She felt that Lin Yue was quite different from the arrester in her impression.It can be seen from his speech and demeanor that he is not raised by ordinary people.As a catcher, his monthly salary is less than one tael a month, but the accessories on his body are all valuable, and his actions are also generous. If he is not wearing a catcher's outfit, he will look like a rich man instead of a head catcher.
"If I can't catch the thousand-faced fox this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to continue. Miss Wu's family committed suicide the day before yesterday, and the Wu family was filled with grief and indignation. They have connections in the court, and they put pressure on them repeatedly. The magistrate of the prefecture even issued an ultimatum." Xue Zhiqian said helplessly.
Lin Yue clenched his fists tightly: "I'm not reconciled, that beast is really harmful, how can it get away with it!"
Gu Liuxi frowned when she heard that, but a good girl was ruined by that man, and she could only end up in vain, which is really annoying.
"The thousand-faced fox shouldn't have been in Suzhou before, right?"
"No, I have committed crimes in Kuizhou and Jiangling before, and I ran to Suzhou a month ago. The imperial court offered rewards everywhere, but they failed to catch him. Those Jianghu people also volunteered, but for some reason, they missed repeatedly!" Xue Zhiqian was depressed again. After taking a sip of the wine, he opened his mouth coolly, with the depression in his tone hard to hide.
Gu Liuxi was also very surprised, that is, although the thousand-year-old fox is good at disguise and good at lightness kung fu, but there are so many talents in the world, how could it be possible that no one can hurt him, so he was too lucky back then!Suddenly thinking of the younger brother of the thousand-faced fox, her eyes lit up.
"Xue Butou, you said that if a person takes his brother with him everywhere, what does that mean?"
"Ah?" Xue Zhiqian was stunned for a moment, and replied casually: "It means that they have a deep brotherhood."
"That's right, since his younger brother pretended to be him and covered his escape, then let him change from fake to real." Gu Liuxi curled her lips and said in a low voice.
Xue Zhiqian frowned, "How can this be done, he is obviously not, even though he is guilty, we can't use him as a scapegoat! And let the real criminal get away with it!"
Lin Yue pondered at the side, he felt that Gu Liuxi couldn't possibly mean that, and then his eyes lit up, "Miss Gu, do you want to use him as bait?"
"That's right, under the pressure from the imperial court, the Suzhou government failed to arrest them repeatedly. Naturally, they were very anxious. At this time, a scapegoat came and beat him into a trick. Isn't it reasonable to use this to make a difference? Do you think he believes it or not?"
Xue Zhiqian also suddenly realized, but then he was a little worried: "But he can let his younger brother act as a cover for him, will he really risk his life for his younger brother? And even if he is a substitute, there is no danger of his life now, how to force him? "
"Brother Xue, he can take his younger brother with him, and his younger brother can cover for him, which is enough to show their feelings. As for the cover, it is just a cover, obstructing official duties, and the crime is not serious. As for how to make his brother clear Some people are in danger of their lives, this?" Lin Yue couldn't figure it out when he said this, so he could only look at Gu Liuxi.
"That's right, as for the fear of life?" Gu Liuxi's eyes turned cold, "Miss Wu's family lost her life. As the chief culprit, shouldn't Wu's family make him pay the price?"
Xue Lin and the two looked at each other, and suddenly realized that it was not easy for the court to issue an execution order, but it was easy for the Wu family to request execution in private, and it is not new for prisoners to die in prison.
The two stood up at the same time, and saluted Gu Liuxi with fists in their hands. Their eyes were extremely eager. Gu Liuxi stood up quickly, but they were extremely embarrassed by them.
Seeing her like this, Xue Zhiqian started to laugh, "Lin Yue is right, we are much worse than Miss Gu, we have to be convinced! If the yamen recruits a female arrester, I, Xue, will follow behind you and fight. ,Ha ha."
Gu Liuxi hurriedly waved her hands: "The two head catchers are absurd, if you go on talking, I will feel ashamed."
Lin Yue coughed a few times, "Miss Gu, although we haven't known each other for a long time, we have become friends. Don't call me a bounty hunter, just call me by my name. Just call him Big Brother Xue."
"Not bad, I'm taking advantage, I hope Miss Gu doesn't mind."
Gu Liuxi still had a good impression of the two of them, and nodded, "I'm not being polite, those two don't call me Miss Gu, just call me Liuxi."
The three talked happily and continued to drink again.
Before leaving, Lin Yue kept saying that he would thank Gu Liuxi well and invite her to dinner.Gu Liuxi was concerned about Wen Moxian's refusal, and finally said: "Since Big Brother Xue and Lin Yue insist on thanking me, then Liu Xi has the audacity to ask you two for one thing."
Lin Yue said quickly: "Where, just say it."
"I came to Suzhou from Sichuan this time mainly to search for people. It's really hard to find people on my own, so I thought you could help me pay attention to a thing or two when I was investigating the case and patrolling the streets." After speaking, he took out I took a small portrait with me.
Lin Yue looked at the man in a navy blue robe above him, he was very handsome, but there was a trace of indifference in his brows and eyes, making him look a bit unapproachable.Lin Yue looked at Gu Liuxi, and said hesitantly: "Liuxi, you came to Suzhou alone to find him. May I ask, who is he?"
Gu Liuxi didn't notice Lin Yue's meaning, and replied: "It's my senior brother, I came to look for him under the order of my master. Also, his sword is very special, you should be able to recognize it when you see it."
Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Okay, even if the yamen is not manned enough, there are still many idlers in my family, and I will help you find them."
Gu Liuxi thanked her and left anyway.
Xue Zhiqian found that Lin Yue was staring intently at Gu Liuxi's back, and bumped him: "Boy, have you taken a fancy to him? No wonder I rented your small yard to her for the first time, and I was so active in helping her find someone just now."
Lin Yue blushed and said in embarrassment: "Brother Xue, don't talk nonsense!"
"Look at you, there is no such thing as nonsense. But Liu Xi is indeed very good. If you can get her, you will be blessed. Brother, I wish you all your wishes come true!"
Lin Yue was a little melancholy, she was extremely beautiful and intelligent, fearing that she might look down on her, her heart fell silent.
This time, Gu Liuxi was still wandering around Su's mansion, thinking of Wen Moxian, she had so many thoughts, how could she know that Lin Yue was hurting because of her.
Her thoughts were confused, and she didn't realize that Young Master Jin Yi looked at her for a long time.
Su Yan originally took someone to check the accounts in the shop, but when he came back, he accidentally found a girl in a water-blue dress, wandering by his house, her delicate and elegant face was full of tangles.He hesitated for a while, stepped forward and said politely: "Is there something wrong with the girl wandering here?"
Gu Liuxi's heart skipped a beat, she looked at the well-dressed Su Yan and the few attendants behind her, and then at the Su Mansion at the side, guessing that he should be from the Su Mansion, it seems that his status is not low.Gu Liuxi felt a little embarrassed when she wandered around the mansion and was caught, but in the end she said, "I want to find someone."
Su Yan smiled: "I don't know who the girl is looking for?" But in his heart it was strange, who in the mansion knew the girl with such a sign.
"Smell Moxian."
The smile on Su Yan's face froze, and it was concealed in a blink of an eye. His face was soft, but there was a hint of danger hidden in his eyes. "Girl, this is the Su Mansion. There is no one named Wen in the mansion. You must have found the wrong one."
Gu Liuxi saw that his expression was calm, but he just put his hands behind his back.The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, secretly hearing that the people around Mo Xian were all good.Although I don't understand why this is the Su Mansion, I can hear that Mo Xian is treated exceptionally well in the mansion. Presumably these people have something to do with Xinxi Pavilion, and they really care about her.
"No? But she said her name is Wen Moxian, and I sent her back. How could there be a mistake?"
Su Yan didn't show it on his face, but his heart was churning, and he still said in a warm voice: "I'm really sorry, I'm the owner of the mansion, I don't know that there is such a person, but the girl was deceived?"
Gu Liuxi also stopped deliberately teasing him, and said with a light smile, "Young Master, there is no need to doubt, I have no malicious intentions, I did know her, and she left something with me, so I came here to return it to her, and take a look."
Su Yan looked at the purple jade pendant in her hand, his eyes narrowed, he really couldn't understand how the master could have contact with outsiders, even the jade pendant that was tied to her body fell off, no wonder he hadn't seen it in the past few days.Thinking about the past few days, Zisu said that the master is always absent-minded, and seems to be waiting for someone, so he immediately believed it.But he was secretly annoyed, Mo Ying and the others didn't even find out about this, they must be reprimanded severely when they go back!
He has always been doing business with people outside, and he is the best at hiding it. Even if he is angry and complaining in his heart, he still smiles gently on his face: "She is not in good health and rarely sees people, so she thinks the girl is making trouble. Sorry, girl please Enter."
Gu Liuxi nodded, and followed Su Yan into the Su residence.
Wen Moxian glanced at Gu Liuxi, and said indifferently: "Although the view of the moon is strange, I prefer to watch the scenery of the stone lake in such a quiet and leisurely way. Although there are many people, it is afraid that the scenery on the lake will be obscured."
The boatman smiled heartily: "Young lady's words are not bad, at first glance, she is a person who likes to be quiet, but it's not suitable for a young lady when she's in the moon."
Gu Liuxi smiled slightly, and sat quietly on the boat with Wen Moxian.The boatman began to paddle the boat, and he sang a little song from the area of Gusu. He sang very deeply, and the tune was very melodious, which had a special taste in the night.
