"Let me ask you, do you know who those people are?"
He was being chased by a group of unruly people and fled into a secret passage for his own safety, knowing nothing about the people outside.
Huang Meier might know.
Huang Meier rolled her eyes, she knew how to look at people's expressions and knew that the master just doubted her.
This is a good opportunity for her to make meritorious deeds.
She didn't see those people, but she knew they were businessmen. She thought the prefect was dead, so of course she had to run away, or else would she wait for those people to tear her alive?
But now the prefect is fine, and those people are just unruly people. The most important thing for her is to appease the prefect's confidence, so that she can continue to live a good life with the prefect.
So Huang Mei'er added fuel to the fire, and the person she spoke of as Mr. Huang became an ignorant businessman who was scared out of his wits by those unscrupulous people. He was also short-sighted and took away a lot of valuable things from the house.
The magistrate gritted his teeth with hatred. What he finally got greedily was taken away by others. How could he feel comfortable?
He originally suspected that it was Mr. Huang, but now he sneered: "Okay! Okay! I thought it was a God of Wealth coming from Kaifeng, but I didn't expect that this is an iron rooster, and he even covets the things in my palace, and I don’t know if I have that ability.”
Huang Meier said some more flattering words, and he immediately sent people to find people from the Yamen, planning to send people to Huang Mansion to make trouble, but before leaving, he asked Huang Meier one last time: "Did you see all this with your own eyes? Are they just ordinary businessmen?”
There was a secret worry in his heart, he was afraid that something might change.
Huang Mei'er never mentioned anything she didn't see. She was waiting for the prefect to deal with the thief and the businessman. It was best to buy something quickly. All the good things in her yard were taken away by the slaves.
Huang Mei'er, who was thinking about this, vowed to do so, and her expression made the prefect feel reassured, so he went to deal with the matter seriously.
Or it was a coincidence that Han Xianzong and others came back late and were resting at this time. Although he was vigilant, he never expected that someone would be so stupid as to come to his door by himself.
The people guarding the gate of the mansion are all palace guards, and the personal guards are guarding the courtyard where Han Xianzong and Gu Xuan live. Although these ordinary guards can fight one against ten, the prefect brought too many people. , with just the strength of a few of them, there is no way to keep everyone out.
Although they got into a fight with some officers and soldiers, they still let a lot of people in. The prefect had already thought of a strategy before he came. Instead of searching the courtyards one by one uncertainly, it would be better to go to the courtyard he discovered at the beginning.
As the saying goes, "Capture the thief first, capture the king first." Mr. Huang may not care about anything else. He can't possibly ignore his son, right?
Thinking of this, the prefect sneered and led people to surround the courtyard where Gu Cheng and Yan Zui lived.
What's more, Gu Cheng was very shocked after practicing swordplay with Yanzui yesterday, so he got up early and planned to get involved with Yanzui, and practice more while Yanzui didn't get up.
He practiced his long sword hard in the yard, and led a group of officers and soldiers to the prefect at the door to look at him, with a sneer on his lips.
What a coincidence, I got up so early to save myself the trouble of looking for a room.
"Go!" The prefect waved his hand and signaled to the officers and soldiers around him: "Go and tie this man up for me. There is a thief in my government, and it is reasonable for the father to pay for his sins. If the time comes to catch him, I think Mr. Huang Can you still be so calm!"
The magistrate who followed the magistrate also had a face full of indignation. As the number one loser around the magistrate, he responded to the magistrate's call at any time. When the magistrate told him what happened yesterday, he secretly broke into a cold sweat in his hands.
He has been greedy with the prefect for so many years, and it is really hard to imagine that the prefect will be wiped out one day.
What if the superiors appoint a new boss, who is honest and upright, and clean up the house and put him away?
Fortunately, he seemed extremely radical at this time and made a decision that he regretted for the rest of his life - that is, he personally took people there to arrest this person and hand him over to the prefect!
The prefect was very satisfied with his knowledge and nodded.
Gu Cheng didn't know that the danger was coming, so he was still practicing his sword and immersed in his own world.
When the magistrate came to him, he was forgetting himself, and his sword danced wildly, almost hitting the magistrate several times.
The magistrate hid here and there, but finally got really angry and said sternly: "It's the opposite! You guys hurry up and arrest him!"
Several government officials looked at each other and rushed forward.
Gu Cheng heard the sound and looked back and was stunned.
Why are there so many officers and soldiers behind you? And they all look at themselves unkindly?
What happened?
While he was stunned, he was restrained by several government officials. The feeling of his hands being held back was uncomfortable. Gu Cheng reacted and became furious:
"You are so presumptuous! You should be so disrespectful to me? Don't you want your head anymore?"
After leaving the capital, Gu Cheng's habit of talking about "this prince" has improved a lot. Of course, even if he didn't change, the prefect wouldn't believe it.
Just like now, he just sneered after hearing Gu Cheng's words:
"What? Are you still a nobleman? But if a businessman's son dares to be so disrespectful to me and disrespectful of etiquette, I will put you in jail immediately!"
"What are you doing?"
After hearing the prefect's words, Gu Cheng was about to get angry, but before he could get angry, another voice came from behind the people.
Looking back, Han Xianzong and others were already standing not far away with a sullen expression.
Among them, the sixth prince saw his son being tortured by a group of officers and soldiers, and was so angry that his lungs almost exploded.
Although he doesn't like this son very much, he is still his eldest son after all, and it is only compared to the children he likes. After all, he is a son, so he must be much better than outsiders, right?
If this bitch like the prefect dares to do this to his son, he will definitely cut this man into pieces!
"Dad!" Gu Cheng saw his father's gloomy face. For the first time, he felt that his father was quite a man. At this time, he shouted in frustration: "This thief is so disrespectful to me when he comes in. Please help me!"
"Haha," the magistrate saw that the martial arts of the guards around Han Xianzong were not simple. He took a few steps towards Gu Cheng's position and then said with a leisurely smile: "Master Huang, what did you do with me yesterday?" You know what it is, right?"
"I am quite tolerant. I will leave my words here today. If you still want your son's life, just return the things that I took from you."
He narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Whenever you return him, go to the prison to take your son back. If you don't pick him up too late, I don't know what I will do."
