Gu Qing frowned and followed the servants out of the mansion.

"Please judge for us..."

The entrance to Chen's house was surrounded by a huge crowd of people, making it impossible to get through. In the center of the crowd, a man and a woman were holding their child and crying loudly.

When I heard the door open, I immediately looked over.

When the two saw Gu Qing, their eyes turned red and they raised their voices.

"That's her!"

The man almost jumped up from the ground, raised his finger and pointed at Gu Qing, wishing he could poke her in the face.

"My son took the medicine they gave him, and suddenly he started convulsing all over. He had a high fever all night, and he died this morning!"

"She and that Huang guy have bad intentions. I was wondering why someone would treat someone for no reason, not only not charging for consultations, but also giving away medicinal herbs for free. Turns out they're using this to kill people."

"Poor son, he was so young, and he suffered such a cruel fate!"

The man's eyes were bloodshot, and he pinched Gu Qing without warning, as if he wanted to eat his flesh alive.

The servants around Gu Qing reacted quickly. One of them stood in front of her, and the other three held the man firmly, preventing him from moving forward.

"Let me go!"

The man struggled violently and actually broke free from the three men's restraints.

Seeing that his pair of rough and broad hands like bear paws were about to touch her, Gu Qing subconsciously raised her hands to block them.

I closed my eyes and didn't feel any pain for a long time.

Gu Qing was surprised and opened her eyes, only to see someone grabbing the man's hand.

"Chen Zhizhou?"

Shouldn't he be on duty?

She stared at the familiar figure.

Chen Zhizhou was immersed in the sunlight, his tall figure seemed to be covered with a faint halo, as if a god had descended to help her block all the suffering.

Hearing her murmurs, Chen Zhizhou turned around and gave her a reassuring look.

He hurried back after hearing from his subordinates that something had happened in the mansion.

Fortunately, I'm back!

The moment he saw the man about to attack her, he became extremely anxious, fearing that he would be a step slower.

"Who gave you the courage to touch her?"

Chen Zhizhou's eyes were cold, and his expression was as if he was looking at a dying person, and his whole body was filled with hostility.

“It hurts…it hurts…it hurts…”

The man was strangled in a strange and twisted posture. He grimaced in pain, his face as pale as paper, and beads of sweat continued to drip from his forehead.

When Chen Zhizhou's gaze swept over him, he couldn't help but shiver.

He glanced around guiltily, and after seeing the people who were confused about the situation and talking about it, he instantly felt confident.

“Help!”

"Everyone, come and see! This is the official who is the father of our people. When a family member made a mistake, not only did he kill his own relatives for the sake of justice, he also protected the murderer."

"In order to protect her, he didn't hesitate to kill people in public!"

He shouted and screamed, trying to win the pity and sympathy of the people.

The woman who had been with him before was not to be outdone. She held her dead child and cried.

"Son! You died miserably!"

"It's because Dad and Mom are incompetent that we can't defeat the wealthy and powerful. But even if they are rich and powerful, Dad and Mom will never give in. Even if it means risking our lives, we will definitely seek justice for you!"

After saying that, the woman bit her lip tightly and rushed directly towards the stone lions in front of Chen's house with the child in her arms.

No one noticed at first, until they heard a loud noise and realized that the woman had committed suicide.

Looking at the blood on the ground, the scene was in chaos.

"Mother!"

The man was hit one after another and fainted.

"This...this is too tragic!"

It took a long time for everyone to recover from the shock.

The incident became too serious, with two lives lost. The Dali Temple had to intervene and sent people to arrest Mr. Huang and detain him in prison.

At the same time, the Chen Mansion was under surveillance, and both the master and the servants needed to apply for permission to enter or leave the mansion.

…

"do what?"

As Qiu Rong stepped out of the door, she was stopped by the police.

"My dear comrade, my family wrote to me this morning saying my mother is seriously ill and will soon die. She wants to see me before she leaves. Please be flexible!"

Qiu Rong covered her face with a handkerchief and pretended to cry.

"no!"

The policeman looked solemn and upright.

"Brother Cha, I beg you!"

Qiu Rong dropped to her knees with a thud. "They say filial piety is the most important virtue. Could it be that you are so cruel as to prevent us, mother and daughter, from seeing each other one last time?"

"You were also born and raised by your parents. I beg you to have mercy on me!"

As she spoke, she took out a purse from her sleeve, which was full of silver.

"Miss, I'm also a servant, please don't make it difficult for me!"

The policeman's expression was moved. He reached out to help her up from the ground, but still did not let go.

Qiu Rong begged for a long time, but it was all in vain. Finally, she could only retreat back to the mansion and go find Gu Qing.

…

inside the house.

Gu Qing picked up a booklet and fiddled with it casually, but unfortunately he was in a bad mood and couldn't concentrate on the contents at all.

When she heard the footsteps, her heart tightened. She looked up and saw Qiu Rong coming in. She saw that she looked dejected, and she understood.

"Madam, no!"

Qiu Rong sighed heavily, her expression mixed with self-blame.

It's all because of her uselessness. She couldn't even do such a simple task that the Madam asked her to do.

Seeing that her little face was about to be piled up together, Gu Qing comforted her: "It's not your fault."
