Chapter 0116 I wish Gu Sheng to dissipate all his wealth
Song Kun recalled the lies he said casually when he met Su Zhen and the others, and he wanted to beat his crow's mouth to pieces. It was so good but not bad!
This time they probably can’t save their hands...
"Most of the people who can enter Jiyuefang are rich or noble. I managed to sneak in, and it would be a pity to just leave like this!"
Yueniang glanced at him and said doubtfully, "So it's you?! Zhu Gusheng, haven't you already lost everything? You actually got into Jiyuefang. It seems that you want to get in even with your remaining life."
"
Su Zhen had heard of this man, Zhu Gusheng, the gambling king, who was once as rich as anyone in the country. When he ascended to a high place and shouted, countless people came to please him. However, a year ago, he squandered his family wealth for no reason and became a beggar. As a result, his wife and children were separated.
Sleeping on the street.
The huge contrast makes Zhu Gusheng successfully transformed into Zhu Gusheng, who is not only lonely, but also in poverty.
What a sin...
"You guys go down first." Yueniang ordered in a solemn voice.
"yes!"
The guards clasped their fists and left, and after they entered, they closed the door.
"Yue Niang, my cousin is really miserable now. Just let him go. I promise that he will never come to Jiyuefang to do such things again." Song Kun knelt on the ground and swore to the sky.
Yueniang sat at the top, playing with the nails on her hands, "He has now broken the rules of our Jiyue Square. If others follow the same example, wouldn't they think we are easy to bully?"
Song Kun waved his hands anxiously, and said with an embarrassed smile, "No, no! As long as we don't tell, no one will know! You are a kind-hearted person, so there is no need to argue with villains like us!"
Su Zhen made a gesture to Ziye, who immediately understood her meaning and said to Yueniang with a smile, "Yue Niang, don't underestimate beggars, they are very useful."
"Oh? Let's talk about it."
"The imperial army can attack cities, plunder ponds, and guard borders. But the strongest ones should be the beggars who survive at the bottom of the civilian population."
"Do you want them to control the rumors and restore your lost reputation?" Yueniang asked in cooperation with them.
Yu Ziye sang a white face, and Su Zhen naturally sang a red face.
She gently touched the dagger that Song Kun had snatched from his hand before. The sharp cold light made Zhu Gusheng shrink his neck, "More than that, if we can gather all the beggars together and guide the rumors to target the Duwei Mansion, force them to
It's natural for them to show off their flaws."
Lao Zhu was very shrewd, how could he be plotted by two brats who were still young and bratty in his eyes.
"You think too highly of me. How can I be so capable?"
"I don't know why you squandered all your wealth, but I know the mentality of a gambler. Especially since you are the king of gambling, it is impossible to lose all your reputation or money."
Zhu Gusheng smiled coquettishly and said, "All I got in the past was money I didn't know how to do. I only got my life back after suffering retribution. Now I make a living by begging, and I am really penniless."
"Your past has nothing to do with us, but if you agree to work for the Crown Prince, not only will your hands be saved, but you will also benefit from it in the future."
Zhu Gusheng didn't believe what she said. Even the imperial court couldn't do anything about Ji Yuefang. How could a mere prince of the Hou family really convince Yueniang?
"Don't you love gambling? Apart from this life, what else do you have to lose? No matter whether you have hidden your family property or not, we will not ask or force you to hand it over."
"Aren't you afraid that the old man will defect in battle?"
Su Zhen frowned, and suddenly stepped in front of Zhu Gusheng, and forcefully opened his hand. Sure enough, a mass of black energy emerged, transformed into a skeleton and wandered along the lines of his palm.
"You should have had an accident in your family one year. If I'm not wrong, there was a lot of bad luck around you at that time. At this time, someone told you that the disaster was caused by your daily behavior, and there was no other way but to spend money to eliminate the disaster. So you started
I put grain in the warehouse and provided relief to the victims until my family's wealth was exhausted, and then I regained my life. Am I right?"
Zhu Gusheng's eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes! How do you know?!"
"I might as well tell you that your disaster is actually man-made. Someone cast a spell on you."
"What? Are you serious?"
"Of course, but that person may have good intentions and want you to take the initiative to help the poor...wait a minute!"
Just when Su Zhen was trying to fool her, a bright light suddenly flashed in her mind.
Yu Ziye paused and asked, "A Ning? What's wrong?"
"Besides Xu Lin, did another woman die last night?"
"Yes! She was made into a beauty bowl." Thinking of the tragic situation when she died, Yu Ziye was still frightened.
"Have you found out her identity?"
"She is a widow. She lives in Wanjing Village outside the city. Her husband's family has made a living by hunting for generations."
"Which faction does Captain Xu belong to in the court?"
"It's hard to say. He seems to be neutral, but he is more inclined to King Qin's lineage."
King Qin? That is Shang Yici, the son of Concubine Yu.
As far as she knew, Left Prime Minister Ji Mengping seemed to strongly support him, and he should be the type to stand by and never look back.
At this moment, Su Zhen finally understood why Su Tingye and the Marquis of Lin'an did not want them to intervene in this matter.
It seems that they have indeed underestimated Xu Lin, and the forces behind him should not be underestimated.
Yu Ziye also understood this, "Aning, do you suspect that Lao Zhutou is related to Xu Lin's case?"
Song Kun hurriedly defended, "Hey! Don't talk nonsense. My cousin was with me last night. He is not a murderer!"
"I think that woman's death may have something to do with Xu Lin. What happened to Lao Zhutou just now reminds me that the murderer of Xu Lin should be like Tang Yinchen, who hates evil by nature. The difference is that he wanted to
Break the rules and judge those whom the law cannot judge.”
"That's you!" Yu Ziye pointed at her and blurted out.
"Don't make trouble." Su Zhen slapped his hand away, "Tang Yinchen can't bear the blame, and neither can he."
"Do you know the clues about the murderer?"
Su Zhen lowered her head and smiled, trying to hide her uneasiness, "How could he be so clever? God knows where the murderer is hiding. Now I am more concerned about the assassins last night, and I don't know what they are looking for?"
"Could it be Tang Yinchen's fan?"
"How to say?"
"The folding fan is named Zhenshuang and is their family heirloom."
"It's hard to say." Su Zhen's eyes were deep. After a moment, her eyes lit up and she looked at Zhu Gusheng, "Let's do this, Old Zhutou, let's make a deal. I'll help you resolve the spell, but you don't have to help us clear our reputation.
It’s best to spread the rumor a little further so that everyone knows about it.”
Before Lao Zhu could reply, Yu Ziye objected without hesitation. "You want to use yourself as bait again? Absolutely not!"
"If the murderer never shows up, Tang Yinchen will be the scapegoat. What's more, this matter has a profound impact on Jiyuefang. If it is not found out, more people will be implicated."
"Have you ever wondered why Tang Yinchen's jade button happened to appear there? And he matches every one of your guesses."
Su Zhen's eyes were firm, "He won't kill anyone."
"You haven't been with him as long as I have, and emotions will blind your eyes."
"I know, but I believe that that young man with pure eyes like you will never ignore the law and treat human life as nothing. Otherwise, what is the difference between him and Xu Lin?"
Yu Ziye sighed, "That's all, it's up to you. The road I took when I met you was crooked. It just so happened that I didn't bother to look back."
Su Zhen hooked his shoulders and said with a very disgraceful smile, "Then how do you know that your original path is the right path? Maybe meeting me is the right one?"
I really can’t help but praise, as shameless as ever!
Yue Niang watched them teasing each other, her eyes softening. This chapter has been completed!
