Chapter 1877: Chapter 1877: Chief of Staff Madam (5)
“A good fortune indeed.” Congxin sincerely praised.
Deng Da glared at Congxin, “Release , and I’ll repay you.”
“What?” Congxin suddenly shouted, “I didn’t hear you clearly, can you say it again?”
Deng Da’s face twisted with anger, “You did that on purpose?” This person was actually one of Gu Ye’s n.
“Ha ha, you’re quite clever,” Congxin laughed, “Bribing a governnt officer is an additional cri… However, I won’t argue with you about that, you’d better enjoy your last few days of life.” After saying this, he left.
He indeed belonged to Gu Qingheng, because Gu Qingheng had shown him kindness. Of course, it could be said that Yang Ruxin had been generous to his family; his son had been judged as incurable by dicinal Stone, but Madam Xiaogu had cured him, essentially saving his entire family. So, he would repay General Gu’s family forever. Doing so things for him, like exposing these sordid people, was no trouble at all.
Deng Da, full of rage, ground his teeth but it was to no avail.
anwhile, Zou Qiuyue was imprisoned alone in a cell, but at this mont, her mind was racing with thoughts of how to convince Gu Sheng of her innocence. As long as he believed in her, then she could be saved…
Gu Sheng originally didn’t believe the coachman’s words; how could such a gentle and sensible person like Zou Qiuyue betray him? But soon, the people from the military office ca, with Vice-Commander Congxin himself present to identify soone.
Seeing Congxin’s gaze, as if watching a good show, Gu Sheng indeed felt extrely tense. Could he go? Naturally, he couldn’t, so the only way was to deny it. He then spoke with a forced smile, “Vice-Commander Cong, you’re joking, my wife has been unwell and was sent back ho to recuperate long ago. How could she possibly go to Xiangshui Nunnery for such disgraceful deeds? Surely there has been a mistake?”
Congxin felt disdain in his heart, but since the man was a second-rank official, far above his level, he remained polite on the surface, “Master Gu, we also think it’s impossible, but that woman keeps claiming to be Madam Gu. Our Lord isn’t familiar with Madam Gu, and this official has never seen her either, so we must ask you to co and clarify…”
For any man, having such sha brought upon him is intolerable. Therefore, Gu Sheng’s reaction was completely normal, yet he was determined to make him go.
“But I have many matters to attend to myself…”
“But that woman keeps insisting she is Madam Gu,” Congxin replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, “Of course, there are other families who bear the surna Gu, but she claims herself to be the Chief of Staff’s wife, and among the chiefs, the surna Gu seems to…”
Gu Sheng was so enraged he almost wished to strangle Zou Qiuyue at once.
“If she continues to shout like this, it seems it will beco troubleso for you, Master…”
Gu Sheng flicked his sleeves and stord out.
Congxin smirked slightly and quickly followed him with his n.
As Zou Qiuyue was engulfed in despair, a prison guard ca to call her, saying that the master wanted her at the court, as family had co to identify her. Her eyes lit up instantly, and she hurriedly adjusted her hair before rushing out. As long as Gu Sheng ca, she would be saved. No matter what, she still had their son, and for the sake of their son, he would surely spare her life?
The Great Xuan Dynasty treated charges of promiscuity seriously, punishable by drowning, especially now with the added accusation of desecrating the Buddha. But she truly didn’t want to die.
