Chapter 188 (1/2)

Within a few days, someone found a female corpse in an ordinary roadway in the capital. It looked like Zhou Ruxin, the third miss of Hou's house.

It was just like meeting a gangster. All the silver and jewelry on his body were robbed, and his face was marked so that he could not see the original.

When the news reached the Marquis house, the Marquis was furious. Jing Zhaoyin was also blamed by the emperor for this matter. A few days later, several petty criminals were arrested and confessed to the robbery.

The emperor ordered a pension and gave silver for the funeral. It's needless to say that the Marquis felt for the emperor's kindness.

What happened at the same time with Zhou Ruxin's funeral was no small thing in Hou's house.

Since the people from Jingzhao mansion came to search around that day, they went back and found that they had just lost some silver money and important things were still there, so they felt a little relieved.

Only the Yang family was worried all day. Even the Lin family and Xiang family in the house had no strength to fight with them.

The people who pay attention to it are naturally secretly strange. They don't know if the second grandmother has lost anything important.

Seeing that some bad rumors came out, Li also asked her, but he didn't ask any results. Yang's hesitation was that he couldn't say a reason. However, he was tired of saying that he was not feeling well and was frightened that day.

Li Shi couldn't hear such evasive words. Seeing that she really didn't want to say it, she didn't bother to care about her anymore. It's her own business to do anything in the future.

Sure enough, as many people expected, things came out in two days.

The person who came from Jing Zhaoyin first came to apologize. He came to help with the last thing according to the emperor's will.

But it was also true that they caused distress, so they came to apologize.

After Zhou Moqing and Zhou mowen had a talk, they finally accepted it. Suddenly, they changed their words: ”Lord Hou, Lord Zhou, in fact, in addition to bothering the family, there is another thing. I have to apologize!”

”Forget it, the past is over! It's also that my family's children are not good at it. Such a thing has gone out.”

At this time, Zhou Moqing really wanted to send the promotion away quickly, but he kept talking like he was coming and going.

”Bring it up.” Gao Sheng saluted and shouted. Sure enough, he saw two yamen officials carrying up a big box.

”What is this?” Zhou Moqing frowned.

”Please forgive me, marquis. This is what my people took from the house that day. They don't know the height of the earth and the breadth of their eyelids.

Fortunately, I asked one more question when I went back, otherwise I didn't know that these people had done such a thing. ”

Then Gao Sheng ordered them to open the box. Sure enough, it was all some things from the family.

”It's all here. Don't worry, Lord Zhou. You can count it well. Now that I find it out and let them call it out, they don't dare to disobey, so...”

Zhou Moqing originally wanted to say something, but on second thought, he was not rich at this time: ”hum! Since we have taken away the things of our family, we naturally want to take them back. If you don't know the current affairs and don't return them, I'll go and invite the Emperor.”

”Yes, the Marquis said yes.” Gao Sheng smiled and waved his hand, so that they all withdrew.

”These things belong to the Marquis, and the lower officials dare not fool around,” Gao Sheng said, suddenly lowering his voice. ”And these, I didn't put them there. I deliberately put them aside and quietly returned them to the Marquis and Lord Zhou.”

The two brothers of Zhou Moqing looked at each other and said, ”what is this?”

When they asked, Gao Sheng's smile became a little mysterious: ”I had no grievances with Lord Hou and Lord Zhou in the past and recently. I really had no way last time, but this... How could I be so ignorant of the times and hand it in to him!”
