Chapter 47 What's wrong with the carriage? Yaoyao, what are you thinking about?
"Yes, my Lord, look at my face and my head. These two unruly people are too arrogant. Their attacks are so heavy and cruel! My Lord, you must make the decision for me!"
"My name is Du Yuanbao, and I'm the nephew of the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. My uncle often says that the Prime Minister is elegant and noble, honest and upright, and loves the people like his own children. He is a role model for all officials!"
Gu Huailing said in a cold tone without looking at anyone, and ordered Sanjiu, "Bring Yu Huaigu here."
The person was brought over quickly. Yu Huaigu looked at his silly nephew and his eyelids started twitching.
His face was filled with fear. He stepped forward cautiously and asked, "Why did you ask me to come here?"
Gu Huailing tapped his fingertips lightly, "Is this your nephew?"
Before Huaigu could answer, Du Yuanbao squeezed over and pointed at Chen Yuan and Gu Yao and said:
"Uncle, I was beaten by these two unruly people. The Prime Minister summoned you here to hand over this case to you!"
It turns out that this silly nephew is the plaintiff.
Yu Huaigu felt relieved, as long as he didn't cause him any trouble.
The next moment, Gu Huailing raised his eyes and said indifferently, "I didn't know that my wife and my younger sister have become what you call troublemakers!"
After these words were spoken, everything was still.
The Jingzhao prefect was the first to slide to his knees. His official uniform was soaked on the back. Did he not slander the Prime Minister’s wife and sister just now?
Du Yuanbao's eyes, which had been squeezed shut by the fat, suddenly opened wide and he was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly: "These, these are not two pretty boys."
Yu Huaigu was so disappointed that he slapped him in the face, "Idiot! Get down on your knees and apologize!"
Du Yuanbao immediately knelt down, the fat on his face trembling, "It's all my fault. I hit my face myself, I wasn't hit by anyone. This is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
Gu Yao jumped out immediately. It was difficult for Chen Yuan to speak in this situation, but she could.
"Bah, what a misunderstanding! It was you who falsely accused them of selling fake jade, seized their shop, and surrounded me and my sister-in-law."
Gu Huailing's face showed no emotion. He simply raised his eyes and said calmly, "The case is being retried, and I am attending."
The Jingzhao Yin did not dare to be careless, so the shopkeeper Chen told him everything that happened in the shop without missing a word.
Jingzhao Yin's face turned pale, and he wished he could beat this blind bastard to death.
He pointed at Du Yuanbao and said, "You are such a troublemaker! Not only do you bully others by taking advantage of your power, you also deceive me. Come on, drag him away and give him fifty lashes, no, a hundred lashes."
After saying this, he looked at Gu Huailing cautiously, "Master Prime Minister, are you satisfied with this?"
Gu Huailing's expression was cold and gentle. "The Jingzhao prefect was caned thirty times for not arguing right from wrong. The Ministry of Revenue's deputy minister allowed his relatives to abuse their power and bully the people. He will be suspended from his post for investigation and the case will be handed over to the Ministry for deliberation."
The two men fell to the ground, not daring to even say a word in rebuttal.
Everyone knows that the Prime Minister has the final say.
Du Yuanbao wanted to beg for mercy, but the bailiff blocked his mouth and dragged him away.
The sound of a club being struck was heard, and soon the government office was filled with the smell of blood.
At the same time, a yamen runner quietly walked out.
After Gu Huailing finished speaking, he stood up, and a cold arc appeared on his black gold cloak.
He passed by Chen Yuan and Gu Yao, and said in a cold voice, "Follow me."
Gu Yao walked at the back and tugged at Shen Yuan's sleeve. In a voice that only the two of them could hear, she whispered, "Sister-in-law, you should act like a spoiled child with big brother later. If that doesn't work, just throw him down. Anyway, he will definitely not be willing to punish you."
After leaving the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, Gu Yao wanted to slip away, but was stopped by Gu Huailing's eyes. He ordered Sanjiu, "Send the young lady back."
Chen Yuan got on the carriage with great trepidation.
After the carriage left, Yu Huaigu, the deputy director of the Ministry of Revenue, walked out of Jingzhao Prefecture with a pale face.
"Master Yu, please stay. My master invites you." As he just walked out of the door, someone called him from behind.
The carriage was burning with the finest incense, and on the low table inside the carriage was still placed the hibiscus cake that Chen Yuan loved to eat.
Gu Huailing's expression showed no emotion, so Chen Yuan decided to strike first.
She looked at Gu Huailing, blinked her clear eyes, and acted innocently: "You can't blame me for what happened today."
Gu Huailing didn't look at her.
Chen Yuan thought of the word "acting coquettishly" that Gu Yao had just said to her.
He made up his mind and stretched out his hand, deliberately saying in a soft tone, "Sir, look, my hand is injured."
If Gu Huailing hadn't taken a good look at the woman at the first moment, he would have really believed it.
He looked at her, his dark eyes were deep and profound, and no emotion could be seen under the dark color.
What Chen Yuan feared most was Gu Huailing, even though they had become a real couple.
But this fear brought from the previous life is not so easy to dispel.
Chen Yuan looked at Gu Huailing and suddenly couldn't say a word.
She withdrew her hand awkwardly, and the courage she had just felt was instantly gone.
However, the moment she withdrew her hand, Gu Huailing had already reached out and grabbed her wrist, "Have you learned how to fight?"
His voice was as steady as a cold jade chime, and Shen Yuan couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.
The next second, Chen Yuan's soft waist was clamped by Gu Huailing's palm.
Outside, the sky gradually darkened. In the intertwined light of light and dark, Shen Yuan's jaw was grabbed, and a kiss with the cold fragrance of ink and water fell, which could not be refused.
Chen Yuan's breathing became tight, and Gu Huailing leaned forward and kissed her deeply.
This kiss was not as gentle as before, and Shen Yuan could clearly sense the dissatisfaction in it.
"Hiss," she felt a sudden pain on her lips. Chen Yuan looked at Gu Huailing in disbelief and accused him, "You bit me?"
Gu Huailing let go of her, took the hand she had just extended in his palm and hummed softly.
The man's palm was hot and dry, and Shen Yuan suddenly felt a little itchy.
She wanted to pull her hand away, but Gu Huailing held it tighter and tighter.
He put his arm around Shen Yuan's waist, a signal that Shen Yuan was very familiar with.
"No... No... Not in the carriage..."
Shen Yuan held his hand with a trembling voice.
Gu Huailing pulled the whip from her waist and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Don't do that in the carriage? Yaoyao, what are you thinking about?"
Shen Yuan's face flushed red.
The man's eyes were dark as ink. He played with the whip and said calmly, "Yaoyao, is it so difficult to find your husband when you have something to ask?"
Shen Yuan was speechless for a moment, but she quickly reacted and said, "It's just a small matter. My Lord, you are very busy. I can handle it. Gu Yao and I won the fight today!"
Gu Huailing stared at her, forcing her to look him in the eye. "No matter what happens, it's not a small matter."
There was a flash of surprise in Shen Yuan's eyes.
"Or do you not consider me as your husband at all?"
"Of course not."
This accusation was too serious, and Shen Yuan immediately refuted it.
Gu Huailing stepped back, leaning lazily against the wall of the car, looking at Chen Yuan, although he couldn't see his exact expression.
Shen Yuan had sensed that he was unhappy.
"My Lord, I swear that next time something happens, I will tell you first."
Shen Yuan raised three fingers and said solemnly.
Gu Huailing still had a cold expression on his face, just looking at her without saying a word.
"It has already happened, so what do you say we should do?"
"What do I say? Madam will do it, right?" Gu Huailing finally spoke.
Shen Yuan nodded.
The man suddenly smiled and looked at her.
Written on the face,
Come and please me.
