The evil young man grabbed a lot of beads in his hand, and his face became a little confused: "I said it too much... It's mainly because this thing caused trouble." After that, he told her exactly what happened when he met Pan Zhuqing.
After Gong Yueyue heard the whole story, she felt bad. "I never thought that giving you a birthday gift could cause such a big trouble for your brother." It also mainly implicated the innocent Xue Jiu...
The evil young man said angrily: "It's his own fault for this. A gentleman doesn't take what others like. If he has such evil thoughts, it's only a matter of time before he gets into trouble." After saying this, he stared at her with a straight face and said sternly.
: "But you have to control this sheep. You are from Big White Goose, so you can't be sorry for him! Besides, Big White Goose is an honest person, but he can be very powerful at critical moments."
When the words fell to the ground, Gong Yueyue suddenly heard her stomach growl, which made both of them laugh. "Why do you have a mouth full of cows, sheep, chickens and geese... I starve to death after listening to you talk..."
After walking out of the study, the evil young man thought about it again and again, and then asked her: "He refuses to explain to the government, and Xue Jiu has been holding on to it. It is not an option to continue like this. Go and persuade him, maybe he will listen."
Gong Yueyue didn't plan to see Pan Zhuqing again, but the matter turned out to be inseparable from her. She stayed out of it. If Xue Jiuzhen had any shortcomings, she would probably feel uneasy in the future. "Okay. But your eldest brother is too stubborn.
Yes, my advice may not be of any use, but I will try my best."
The East Street Inn is really very familiar to Gong Yueyue. When she was in trouble, it was her place to stay. Now, it has become Pan Zhuqing's prison.
"Brother Pan." After she knocked on the door and walked in, she couldn't help being startled. In the dark room, the doors and windows were closed, and sitting at the round table in the middle was a listless man. This was still the man who was a little proud, a little indifferent, and always high-spirited.
Young Master Pan? She stood at the door, a little overwhelmed and at a loss as to what to do.
There was still a smile on his thin face: "Do you believe me?" Gong Yueyue suddenly discovered that the smile in his eyes at this moment did not seem to be forced out at all.
"If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have come, right?" She began to observe him carefully, and there was a faint doubt in her heart. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't think of a reason. The man in front of her gave her a kind of
A strange feeling. It seems that the outside is decaying, but inside there is a surge of vitality that can burst out at any time. "Brother Pan, we are all trying to help you, but you have to cooperate, right? Xue Jiu is tortured every day*
, if this continues, I’m afraid it’s really not a joke.”
He looked up at her, suppressed his smile, and asked in a calm tone: "Do you really think the government will believe my words and think that I sent Xue Jiu to Yihong Mansion to find the woman just for a string of beads? By then I will
How should I explain to them what that thing means to me?"
The last question made Gong Yueyue confused. She thought to herself: "This Pan Zhuqing either doesn't speak or chokes people to death when he speaks. I really want to cut out his tongue!"
"But... didn't she also take a lot of jewelry from you... It's not right to take it without asking..." She hesitated, unable to speak. Pan Zhuqing's unscrupulous and scorching eyes at this moment made her want to run away.
.
"Even if all those things are added together, it is not enough for a person like me to send his henchmen to find trouble for himself regardless of his identity. I would think so myself, let alone those in the government?" His tone was relaxed.
It's plain and without any emotion, as if it's telling someone else's case.
"But if you keep silent, Xue Jiu may take the blame. If you get beaten again..." At this point, she had almost concluded that her visit was in vain. Looking back from the time she met Pan Zhuqing to now, there seemed to be no debate.
She could win against him. He always seemed to be so unhurried and unhurried, making every move that made her feel confident and confident instantly turned into ashes.
Sure enough, "I know him, but he doesn't."
"But can you bear to let him die in vain? Are you willing to see the real murderer and those who want to harm you go free?" This "Calm Emperor" has already made Gong Yueyue a little angry, and he was originally gentle and soft.
I can no longer control my voice, just like when I argued with him in the past.
But he turned a deaf ear and only asked calmly: "Is Jing Yuan here?"
Her cheeks were bulging as if they were inflated, and she said angrily: "Here you go, wait for me outside."
He suppressed his laughter and said seriously: "I want to meet him and have something to say to him."
"Okay, I'll change him." She muttered, turned around and walked out of the house. Pan Zhuqing looked at her back with a gentle smile.
After a while, the evil young man shook his head and walked into the room with a sigh. "Brother, brother, what do you think I should do to you?"
Pan Zhuqing stood up, walked to the door of the house and closed the door. The fatigue on his face was wiped away, and he changed to a solemn and alert look: "I can't get away now. There is something I can only entrust to you."
The evil young man immediately came to his senses, approached him and lowered his voice and asked, "Tell me about it?"
"Help me investigate and find out whether Xue Jiu killed that woman."
The evil young man was shocked: "What? What do you mean..."
Pan Zhuqing made a silent gesture and whispered in his ear: "I'm not sure, so I haven't dared to act rashly. That woman is indeed hateful, and Xue Jiu has a violent temper. I'm afraid he will do something stupid in anger."
."
The evil young man nodded, and then asked, "But if he really did it, what are you going to do?"
"You should investigate and find out the results first. Then discuss it with me as soon as possible and then make plans."
"I know, I'll do it right away." Just as he was about to walk to the door, the evil young man turned back and asked him more volubly: "Can the sheep know about this situation?"
"It's up to you."
The evil young man did not tell Gong Yueyue what Pan Zhuqing said. He just told her that he had some doubts and wanted to investigate the crime scene. What surprised him was that Gong Yueyue himself put forward the first condition for rescuing Xue Jiu.
Even if she wanted to find out whether he had committed any murder, she felt that Xue Jiu had a violent temper and might have really lost control on the spot.
Through Zhao Xiong's help, Bad Shao and Gong Yueyue were able to see Xue Jiu himself in prison. At this time, Jiu Ye had been tortured to the point of being unsightly and was lying on his side in the iron cage in a daze.
Gong Yueyue held the iron door open and called softly: "Xue Jiu..."
Xue Jiuzha opened his eyes and turned around in disbelief. The two faces in front of him made it even harder for him to distinguish reality from a dream: "Second Young Master...Ms. Zhao..."
"How could these bastards do this!" Seeing the bloodstains all over his body, his disheveled hair, and his chapped lips, Gong Yueyue cursed angrily. After all, he was a colleague who had worked together before, and there was still some friendship.
The bad boy couldn't bear it anymore. He took off the water bag, opened the lid and handed it in: "Drink some water."
Xue Jiu took the water bag and drank it unceremoniously. He must have been thirsty for a long time. After a long while, he put down the water bag and said with difficulty: "Second Young Master... don't worry, I, Xue Jiu... Jue
The young master will not be harmed...it makes me anxious, the worst is death..."
The evil young man patted his arm through the iron cage railing: "Brother Ninth, since you are not even afraid of death, you are even less afraid of telling the truth. Did you kill that woman?"
Xue Jiu sighed and endured the pain and said with difficulty: "If I had known...she would cause such a big trouble to the eldest young master...I...killed her with my own hands the night before."
What he said was ambiguous, and neither Bad Shao nor Gong Yueyue understood the reason.
Yueyue had no choice but to stretch out her paw and pet him, and asked: "Is it true?"
He hissed in pain, and then resolutely said his answer: "No."
Although the truth still needs to be verified, Bad Shao and Gong Yueyue still breathed a sigh of relief. Yueyue said: "Then tell us exactly what happened that day, don't miss every detail, and we will find a way to help you."
Xue Jiu's heart felt hot, her nose felt sour, and she almost cried: "Madam..." You must know that this Gong Yueyue is actually not related to her, and besides, he has done things to hurt her before...
Yueyue saw that his eyes were slightly red, and quickly comforted him: "I also have a certain responsibility for this matter. If you are really wronged, I will never stand idly by and let you die in vain." She can't stand men crying and beautiful men like pretty boys.
"Ouba" could barely endure it, but a tough and tough "Agassi" like Xue Jiu should forget it.
"I'll go guard the door." The evil young man walked out of the cell, and Xue Jiu explained the whole story to Gong Yueyue.
Early that morning, he followed Pan Zhuqing's instructions and hurried to Yihong Mansion to find the oiran to redeem the string of beeswax beads. At that time, almost all the people who were sleeping were still in their spring sleep. So he had a smooth journey.
Not even a single person was seen. When he arrived at the oiran's room, the woman had just returned and was sitting at the table drinking tea. Since Pan Zhuqing had warned him that the purpose of this trip was just for the string of bracelets, and not to cause any complications, so
Without wasting a moment, he took out his silver and asked the woman for something.
The woman came here for money, and when she saw the white money, she naturally wouldn't talk too much with him. She readily handed over the beads.
In less than a third of the time it took him to hold the incense stick, he successfully retrieved his things and walked out. After leaving Yihong Building, as soon as he walked to the street, he heard a loud noise falling from the sky, followed by the screams of passers-by.
, he then discovered that something had happened to Han Xian'er. Thinking that Pan Zhuqing was still waiting for him in the restaurant opposite Yihong Building, he didn't stay too long, so he took his hand beads to see Master Pan for business.
After listening to what he said, she digested it in her mind, and finally asked seriously: "Is that all? Are there any missing details? It's not easy for us to come in once, you'd better recall it clearly."
He nodded and replied feebly: "I have told you everything I can remember."
"Okay, hold on." She stood up and left without further delay.
Walking to the outside of the cell, the evil young man was waiting at the narrow door with his eyes half-closed and his arms folded. Several jailers were gathered together with extremely unnatural expressions.
Gong Yueyue cleared her throat behind the evil young man, and then the evil young man gave way and led Gong Yueyue out. The jailers just breathed a sigh of relief when Gong Yueyue suddenly turned around and said to them: "Xue Jiu was my
I am a colleague and a good friend. Regardless of whether he is guilty or not, what the consequences are, who did what to him, whether good or bad to him, I will keep it all in my heart. This is how being a human being is, whether you take silver or silk, gold and paper, it often makes a difference.
It’s just a difference of one thought.” (To be continued)
