Lucky star, cute baby, fairy mother is so handsome

Chapter 418 No need to be scared

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and saw Lan Cong take out a paper bag and open it. Gu Nianyu looked at it and saw that it was a candy bar.

His Highness the Eighth Prince took a piece and handed it to her, "Here is a piece."

"Thank you, you can eat, I'm not hungry." Who is a good person who eats sweets in the middle of the night?

"The myna ate it, and I had to replenish it after being frightened."

Gu Nianyu covered her face again, thinking: Such a coward, I wonder what kind of woman can tolerate him?

Not long after, His Highness the Eighth Prince finished "making up" and continued to ask, "Brother and sister, how did you know about the murder case in Lijiacun?"

Gu Nianyu, "..."

I told you, not only did you not believe it, you were scared to death.

"I guessed." Since she didn't believe the truth, she could only lie.

"Brothers and sisters, human life is at stake, how can you rely on guessing?"

Gu Nianyu yawned a few times, stood up and said, "You will regret it if you don't check." After that, he walked into the house.

His Highness the Eighth Prince looked at Butler He who was guarding him like a wolf, "Do you believe what your princess said?"

"Old slave naturally believes it."

His Highness the Eighth Prince clapped his hands and stood up, jumped up to the wall and left.

On the way back, he told Lan Cong, "Arrange a few people to rush to Lijiacun overnight."

Cunzhou.

It was already half past midnight, but the lights in the government office were brightly lit. Shangguan Jiuyou sat at the top, with Shiyi standing behind him. The right minister Lu Yan and the chief minister Yao Zhi sat at the bottom.

Magistrate Chen was kneeling on the ground, anxiously waiting for the verdict to be announced, but from the time he knelt at dawn to dusk, he didn't even hear a word.

He kept feeling a chill on his neck and was in danger of moving at any time.

What was even more strange was that it was quiet all around, and it seemed like there was no one in the government office, which made him even more uneasy.

Various speculations tortured him, and gradually his body began to tremble. He felt that he had no strength at all, and was in danger of falling to the ground at any time.

Shangguan Jiuyou's fingers tapped on the table again and again, and the sound they made was more like a reminder to Magistrate Chen. Finally, he couldn't hold on any longer.

He prostrates himself on the ground and shouts, "Your Highness Ninth Prince, please spare your life."

Shangguan Jiuyou looked into the distance and said quietly, "Prefect Chen, I am afraid that you have been away from the capital for a long time and have forgotten my king's temper."

These words frightened Magistrate Chen to the point where he was shaking like chaff.

Shangguan Jiuyou's cold eyes looked at him, murderous intent emerged, "I will never spare my life."

Magistrate Chen was so frightened that he fainted and fell to the ground.

Fourteen came out escorting a middle-aged man, "Tell me, Master, this is the housekeeper of Magistrate Chen."

The man staggered and knelt down, "See Your Highness Ninth Prince."

Fourteen presented a piece of paper, "Master, this is the crime he confessed to, and it has been signed and secured. The warehouse and secret room have been taken over by our people."

Shangguan Jiuyou glanced at the content above, and then said calmly, "Let him wake up."

Eleven, who has been with him since childhood, naturally knows who this "him" is.

He drew his sword as he walked, approached Magistrate Chen and stabbed him in the thigh with all his strength.

With a scream of pain, the butler beside him fainted.

"Your Highness, Ninth Prince, have mercy on me. Your Highness, Ninth Prince, have mercy on me." Regardless of the pain, Magistrate Chen kowtowed again and again, begging for mercy over and over again.

"Kill them and hang their heads at the city gate for public display."

On the 11th, the sword fell with his hand, and Magistrate Chen and his housekeeper were dead.

This scene scared Yao Zhi to the point where his whole body went weak.

Shangguan Jiuyou stood up and left. Yao Zhi tried his best several times but couldn't get up. In the end, it was his right minister Lu Yan who helped him up.

Fourteen, who was disposing of the body, spoke up, "Don't be afraid, Mr. Si Nong. Magistrate Chen concealed the disaster, hoarded food in order to enrich the country, increased taxes, and did not care about the lives of the people. He deserves it."

"Indeed, His Majesty Ninth Prince has no wronged souls among his men." The right minister supported Da Sinong and walked out.

The moon was as cold as water, and the coolness dispelled the sultry heat of the day, but it could not dispel the scene of eleven murders in Yao Zhi's mind.

Lu Yan said nonchalantly, "It's just two people who died. Look how scared you are."

"Right Prime Minister, I'm almost sixty, so don't worry." Yao Zhi said this in an exaggerated tone, his long beard trembling, a bit like an old naughty boy.

"That's it. I didn't interrogate anything. I sat there from afternoon to dark, and everything just clicked. I was afraid that my head would suddenly move. I would be able to retire and return to my hometown when I was seventy, and enjoy my old age. I didn't want it to happen so suddenly. Report to the underworld."

He is from the first rank, and his official position is not as high as that of the Right Prime Minister. The reason why he dares to speak like this is because the two families have a close relationship, and the Right Prime Minister will naturally not care about it.

"Don't worry, everything you wish for will come true."

The stars are bright and everything is silent. Shangguan Jiuyou stood in front of the window, looking in the direction of the capital.

I wonder if Yu'er, who is thinking about him so much, misses him?

After not being together these days, he realized that missing someone would make him sleepless, and that this was what lovesickness felt like.

Things here must be settled quickly, he is going back to Beijing.

Gu Nianyu was woken up by Liu Yun, who said that the Eighth Prince's Mansion had sent a book about the food planting cycle.

The person who originally liked to stay in bed changed his usual behavior and stood up quickly. He asked Liu Yun to bring the book without even bothering to wash his face.

Liu Yun handed it over with both hands, and Gu Nianyu held it between his fingers and shook it, "That's it? Book?"

It’s not that she hasn’t seen the world, but the picture books in kindergarten are actually thicker than this. How many types can be recorded on just a few pieces of paper?
