After escaping with her bestie, she became the white moonlight of the crazy prince

This sentence made Shen Chu stunned on the spot.

what's the situation?

Why does Goudan think so?

Soon, Shen Chu understood.

Perhaps Goudan thought that his answer would make him angry.

If this is the case, it means that Grandpa Lin has close ties with the government.

Shen Chu stared at Goudan's eyes and did not answer the question immediately. Instead, he spoke after a while.

"Do you believe my sister?"

Goudan stared at him and nodded heavily.

Seeing this scene, Shen Chu couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth and chuckled.

"Then believe me. No matter what you say, your Grandpa Lin will be fine."

Shen Chu spoke word by word with great confidence.

Upon hearing this, Goudan's heart instantly calmed down. He opened his mouth and finally began to answer Shen Chu's question.

"Grandpa Lin used to work for the government in Yancheng."

The first sentence he said made Shen Chu open his eyes slightly wide in surprise.

uh-huh?

Did you work in the government before?

Does the Yancheng government actually need a craftsman to manage it?

As soon as Shen Chu had this thought, she suppressed it herself, and her face showed an expression of shame, just like Goudan's just now.

Stereotyping is not advisable.

"What was he doing in the government office at that time?"

Goudan did not mention this point on his own initiative, but Shen Chu took the initiative to ask about it.

Thinking Shen Chu was about to ask about something serious, Goudan quickly answered her, "He was just working as a handyman in the government office at the time."

what?

With such excellent skills, he actually went to work as a handyman in the government office?

If this isn't a waste of natural resources, what is?

Before Shen Chu could express his frustration, Goudan continued, "But he wasn't the kind of errand boy that sister thinks he was. He was actually just idling around in the government office because the Yancheng County Magistrate at the time was his son. He was doing errands there just to make a living."

Goudan spoke very quickly, with almost no pause between words, and continued on quickly.

"He didn't leave government until his son was reported for corruption and bribery."

His voice was filled with anger. "Grandpa Lin was so angry that he vomited blood when he heard the news."

"I'm not angry that my son did such a thing, but I'm angry that someone put the blame on Uncle Lin."

Shen Chu's brows furrowed tightly when he heard this, and even his voice was filled with confusion. "What do you mean? Is this a frame-up?"

Goudan, who was immersed in his emotions, suddenly raised his head when he heard this, met Shen Chu's gaze, and said firmly, "This is definitely a frame-up!"

"Whether it's Grandpa Lin or Uncle Lin, they are both good people. They would never do such a thing!"

He was in tears and sobbing. He was just telling a story, but he ended up crying all the time.

However, the expressions of Shen Chu and Yun Shu looked extremely calm.

"No matter how much Grandpa Lin sued the company and explained, it was useless. He just waited until the higher-ups issued an order to behead Uncle Lin."

"what?!"

Just beheaded like that?

"No, there is no evidence to prove that he didn't embezzle or accept bribes?"

Goudan responded to Shen Chudao with a sarcastic smile.

Although Goudan did not answer Shen Chu's question, Shen Chu understood the answer to this question.

If anything, it wouldn't have happened in the end.

"Take me to find Grandpa Lin."

Shen Chu didn't want to listen any further and took a few steps forward.

Upon hearing this, Goudan quickly caught up, but didn't say another word.

Seeing this, Yun Shu followed, which was exactly what Shen Chu wanted.

As soon as he arrived beside Shen Chu, a voice came from the side.

"Your Majesty, will you not ask about this kind of thing?"

Shen Chu didn't specify what the matter was, but Goudan's words had just come out, and Yun Shu, like Shen Chu, knew clearly what the "matter" in the words was referring to.

The girl's unique scent was very close, which made Yun Shu a little uncomfortable. He frowned quickly and said as if nothing had happened, "I will ask about it."

Hearing this, Shen Chudao's expression suddenly changed, but then Yun Shu added another sentence,

“But they rarely ask.”

Shen Chu, whose heart was in his throat, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this.

Will you die if you don't breathe heavily when talking?

She thought it was His Majesty's doing.

"If that's the case, who else can decide the life and death of a county lieutenant?"

Shen Chu lowered her voice because in front of her was Grandpa Lin's dilapidated little house, and she was afraid that if she spoke too loudly, the old man would hear her.

It’s a pity that Yun Shu didn’t know this. When she answered Shen Chu, her voice was still as loud as usual, as if she was afraid that Grandpa Lin inside couldn’t hear her.

"Besides Your Majesty, there are many others who can do this. Among them, Sun Xianghe and His Highness have the greatest power."

The voice was very calm, simply stating a fact.

When Shen Chu heard it, it felt like he was speaking like a little fanboy.

She could see that Yun Shu was truly loyal to Xie Ming.

"That must be Sun Xiang's doing."

After hearing Yun Shu's answer, Shen Chu murmured subconsciously.

Yun Shu heard this subconscious murmur and remembered it firmly.

There were clearly three options, but she directly eliminated two.

"Sister, should we knock on the door?"

Shen Chu and his group were still not going in, which made Goudan, who was standing outside with them, a little bored, and he couldn't help but remind Shen Chu and the others.

Hearing his words, Shen Chu quickly responded, "Okay, okay, I'll knock on the door."

Before she finished her words, an old voice came from inside, serious yet kind.

"Gou'er? Why are you here? Come in quickly. Why are you knocking on the door? Just treat it as your own home."

The old man's voice was kind, and Shen Chu was a little surprised.

This doesn't look like the same person Yun Shu described.

Seeing Shen Chu looking at him with a puzzled look, Yun Shu's brows twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川" (Chuan), and his expression looked a little ugly.

Don't look at him, the old man he met at that time was not like this.

Shen Chu withdrew his gaze, with a shy smile on his face, and winked at Goudan.

Goudan immediately understood what Shen Chu meant and said in a troubled voice, "But Grandpa Lin, I brought a sister here today. Do you mind?"

His voice was coquettish and made people feel warm inside.

Soon, Shen Chu received a response from inside, "I heard her talking just now, you all come in together."

"Cough cough..."

Along with these words, the old man coughed.

His voice was hoarse and he sounded very weak.

Goudan, who was still hesitant, immediately opened the door and walked in after hearing the voice, shouting, "Grandpa Lin!"
