General, he's cheating again

"The purpose of our visit this time is to find out the real culprit behind the private possession of salt and iron."

When Chen Jin finished his work and sat down at the table, Qin Qingrong got straight to the point without hesitation, but his attitude was still gentle when he spoke: "According to the confession of Yu Duocheng, the governor of Tanzhou, he identified the privately hidden salt and iron It was lost from the hands of Chen Zhuan."

"Yu Duocheng..."

Recited this person's name in a deep voice, a trace of hatred flashed in Chen Jin's eyes, "To be honest, Mr. Qin, this person has enmity with me, and in recent years I have often had the urge to kill him.

It's just that I still have a younger sister to take care of, so I can't leave her alone. "

Feeling that things were not as simple as imagined, Gu Zhen thought to himself, and then he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? Envoy Chen has enmity with him? Can you tell us the reason in detail?"

"The reason. It's my fault."

The corners of Chen Jin's lips curled into a sneer, with a chill on his face, "I met Yu Duocheng last year at the promotion envoy's birthday banquet. At that time, he took the initiative to talk to me at the banquet, saying that he wanted to make friends with me. Did not refuse.

It's been a long time since I came and went, and once I took him home for a drink and a meal. "

The hands on his lap were clenched into fists, and his tone contained disgust when he spoke, "I didn't expect that he raped my sister that night! When I sober up, it's too late.

The younger sister suffered a severe mental trauma because she was already seriously ill.For a period of time, no matter how much I comforted her, she would not say a word to me, and her condition became more and more serious. "

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but feel sorry for Chen Jin's sister, and felt that Yu Duocheng was an abominable beast in clothes.

Chen Jin sighed softly, and then continued with a faint smile on his face, "Fortunately, I figured out a way to plant flowers outside my sister's room, which gradually healed her heart.

As for Yu Duocheng, he said that I hid salt and iron privately, which was literally spitting blood.He has no conscience, he is simply a shameless person, why should adults believe his words? "

Quietly watching Chen Jin with an angry face, Gu Zhen did not feel empathy for Chen Jin's tragic experience like others.

"One yard counts for one yard. If Chen transferer needs to know that what is not said by a villain is not the truth."

Turning his sharp eyes to the person sitting opposite, Gu Zhen calmly pointed out the misunderstanding in Chen Jin's words, "He is not a poor person, everything he said is correct.

General Ben is not satisfied with the answer given by Chen Zhuanyun, because your sister has been seriously ill for many years and you have the motive to take risks for expensive medicine. "

Hearing Gu Zhen's question, Chen Linxiang, who had already been bewitched by Chen Jin's words, was suddenly awakened, and he immediately echoed: "That's right! General Gu's words are reasonable."

Pointing at Chen Jin beside him, he felt that Chen Jin was a bit of a city man. He tilted his head slightly, and asked with a bit of shame in his expression: "Young master, please play carefully with me, I advise you to recruit truthfully. .”

Shaking his head slightly, Chen Jin looked a little helpless, "Sister She was indeed seriously ill since she was a child, but the medicines she has been taking all the time are made of simple medicinal materials. My sister, she just can't be tired and can't see the wind often. .”

"In this case, can you invite her to come out and meet with us? After all, it involves a major case and I hope the transshipment envoy can understand."

Qin Qingrong has always followed the saying "hearing is believing, seeing is believing", so at this moment he is demanding and rigorous about Chen Jin's explanation.

"This... can't be done." Hearing this, Chen Jin flatly refused, and he said with a firm expression: "It's not that Chen is boasting, the sister-in-law's appearance is overwhelming. Thinking about it, Yu Duocheng only saw her at the dinner table last time, and then got angry with her." unruly heart.

This incident, even though she sister has already forgotten it, but Chen will never forget it.Therefore, I cannot agree to the request of adults. "

After Chen Jin finished speaking, Qin Qingrong wanted to persuade him, but Gu Zhen who was sitting next to him secretly grabbed his sleeve, and his eyes signaled him not to say any more.

Away from the topic, Gu Zhen seemed to be unintentionally looking at another clue to the case, but he kept paying attention to Chen Jin's expression from the corner of his eye.

"Speaking of making money, General Ben suddenly remembered the black market hidden under a pawn shop in the city."

Noticing Chen Jin's stagnation, Gu Zhen narrowed his eyes and said to Chen Jin vigilantly: "You must know that because Yu Duocheng was doing business with the black market, he was almost beaten to death by the people inside when he went to ask for money a few days ago. This general is very curious. Will someone in the Judiciary collude with him?"

Chen Jin dodged Gu Zhen's gaze, "This... I don't know."

"Don't the transshipment envoys wonder why it is a black market for trading, and why it appeared in Tanzhou City?" Gu Zhen asked after him.

"The so-called black market is nothing more than gambling, human trafficking, and arms reselling." Chen Jin regained his composure after shaking his head and replied: "As for why it happened, it has nothing to do with Chen. The general may have asked the wrong person."

"You're right, the only thing missing is a smuggled sale of salt and iron." Gu Zhen frowned slightly, and said impatiently: "Why bother with the general, if it has nothing to do with the salt and iron case, the general will ask you what to do ?

In fact, you know a lot about the black market, just now you deliberately avoided the word "salt and iron", did you think it was hot? "

"If there is no evidence, Chen still advises adults not to talk nonsense." Facing several times of questioning, Chen Jin became more calm, "If adults want to investigate the case, Chen will definitely do his best to help.

After dinner, even if the adults follow me to the ferry to inspect the work, Chen will know everything if he has any questions. "

At the end of the day, no one found any clues.Chen Linxiang also talked to Gu Zhen several times about whether Yu Duocheng had lied to them, deliberately pointing them in the wrong direction, so as to help him sell the salt and iron gang to buy time to escape.

Until the evening when everyone entered their rooms one after another and was about to go to bed, an unexpected guest suddenly entered Qin Qingrong's bedroom through the window.

When Gu Zhen's feet landed on the ground, he saw Qin Qingrong sitting on the side of the bed and reading a book. There was no surprise on his face, as if he was waiting for Gu Zhen.

Putting down the book and looking at Gu Zhen quietly, Qin Qingrong shook his head helplessly, "Master Gu is indeed here, and he didn't leave the door."

Hearing this, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, Gu Zhen threw a bag at Qin Qingrong, and he praised without hesitation, "Well, it's a good idea. Since you guessed it, put it on, so it's convenient for you to move at night."

Looking at Gu Zhen's attire like an assassin at the moment, Qin Qingrong looked at the black clothes in the bag, and probably guessed that Gu Zhen wanted to visit the Chen family at night with him to find Chen Jin's sister.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart since he and Gu Zhen worked together, they climbed over the wall and acted like a ghost, and now they still have to go to other people's houses at night to peep.

Picking up the black clothes with some hesitation, Qin Qingrong frowned slightly and said with a sigh: "No matter what, it's not good to break into a daughter's boudoir at night."

But after complaining about Qin Qingrong, he still chose to turn his back to change clothes, and suddenly felt that there was an extra hand behind his back to help him organize his clothes. When he turned his head, he looked into Gu Zhen's eyes, and the person in front of him was looking at him. laugh.

"Why? Master Qin is unwilling to join forces with me this time?"

The two were already close, but Gu Zhen deliberately moved his face a little closer at this time, his fingers lightly stroking Qin Qingrong's hair on the temples, and his eyes were full of charm, "I heard that Mr. Qin is thinking about getting married recently. , Is it because I already have a sweetheart in my heart?

Tell me, is Lord Qin's sweetheart in Beijing?Or is this person right in front of you right now? "

Taking a step back, Qin Qingrong frowned slightly and asked, "How do you know?"

"You have inquired about my family affairs for so many years, and even helped me find out the cause of the old man's death. Haven't you heard that Leng Ji has one eye but has always had good hearing?" Looking at the jade pendant on Qin Qingrong's waist, Gu Zhen's eyes revealed Showing some satisfaction, "Your Majesty Qin might as well admit that you have a crush on this general.

Otherwise, why do you carry the jade pendant with you when you sit and walk, and even put it beside your pillow when you sleep. "

The smile on his face deepened, and Gu Zhen looked at Qin Qingrong flirtatiously with a pair of phoenix eyes behind his hands and teased: "Master Qin, tell me, do you think of Gu when you see a jade pendant.

When you fell asleep at night, what did you do with me in your dreams? "

"Shameless." Qin Qingrong had indeed had sexual dreams several times in the past few days, his face flushed and he felt a little guilty, he avoided the question and asked instead: "Lord Gu still owes me a question that I haven't answered.

You came to me on the night of Gu Hou's death, why? "

"Pfft..." Gu Zhen laughed more and more wantonly when he heard the words, "Why? Don't you admit that you have a sleepy face? Master Qin, you still need to be a little confident in life."

Seeing that Qin Qingrong was already sullen, Gu Zhen suppressed his smile and showed some seriousness, "There is a poem that is well written." We are both degenerate people in the world, so why should we know each other when we meet?" I regard you as a confidant in my heart."

Just a confidant?

A gloomy look flashed across his eyes, Qin Qingrong pursed his lips to meet Gu Zhen's gaze, but lowered his eyebrows to look at the clothes on the bed, and tidied them up calmly.

"So, what does Lord Qin think of Gu?"

Gu Zhen saw the change of Qin Qingrong's expression in his eyes, and his eyes fell on the back of him leaning over to tidy up, and then added a sentence: "Actually, Master Qin looks very much in line with Gu's wishes, if it's not that Master Qin is not very willing Look, Gu is thinking about trying with you."

Hearing that the emotions in his heart became inexplicably clear again, Qin Qingrong frowned and annoyed why he was emotionally up and down because of Gu Zhen's one or two words.

"friend."

After tidying up the bed, Qin Qingrong straightened up and thought that maybe he really hit it off with Gu Zhen, so he stopped speaking ironically against his heart, "Although we haven't been together for a long time, we have experienced a lot together.

I don't care how you measure it in your heart, to be honest, I regard you as a friend. "

"That's right. Speaking of civil servants, Mr. Qin is the second friend Gu made." Gu Zhen rubbed his hand and began to think carefully, "Since I have made friends, I will call you "Qing Rong" from now on. ", you can call me Gu Lang."

"What Gu Lang?" Qin Qingrong frowned slightly dissatisfied, "And how could there be someone from you among the civil servants?"

"Hey, haven't you heard of it?" Quietly looking at Qin Qingrong's jealous appearance, the key is that this person is still jealous without knowing it, Gu Zhen laughed and said: "Zhang Tingyu. Although there is no relationship now."

Subconsciously snorting coldly, Qin Qingrong showed displeasure, "You are affectionate, and you still remember your friendship after so long."

Realizing that his tone was wrong, the atmosphere between the two of them at this moment seemed like a young couple questioning their love history.

Gu Zhen's slender fingers lightly tapped the forehead of Qin Qingrong who looked embarrassed, and withdrew his hand, he raised his lips and smiled lightly, and walked out the door with his hands on his back.

Annoyed at why she was talking nonsense just now, Qin Qingrong looked at Gu Zhen's back and frowned slightly.Hearing Gu Zhen urging him to go faster, it was getting late, he sighed softly and followed quickly.
