2266 Chapter 2266-want to leave
“Don’t, don’t, don’t, third young lady, I don’t know how to speak, I didn’t mean it that way. Really, I promise! the person I, Wang Shoucheng, admire the most in my life is Lord Gu, the top scholar among the 30 scholars and the current Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites. The second person is Lord Gu’s daughter, Princess Xinxin, who conquered the Western Region and made the East and West friendly! I’m more than willing to work for them.” Fatty Wang started to swear to the heavens.....
“Alright, stop dilly-dallying, I won’t fall for your tricks!” Gu Xin was speechless.
hehe, hehe, third young lady, what about Mr. MoU? ” fatty Wang smiled honestly.
“We’ll talk about it after we’re done with the case and back in the capital!” Gu Xin suddenly became serious, ” this case might not be that simple. It’ll probably take two to three days. The bailiffs went to bring the Qi family back, and by the time they arrived, it was already midnight. We’ve all been busy the whole day, and we’re all humans, not made of steel. We still need to rest at night.”
“Yes, yes, yes, you’re right. I’ve been wanting to sleep for a long time, I’m really too tired.” Fatty Wang was in full agreement. When he saw Gu Xin’s gaze, he immediately changed the topic, ” I’ve eaten, but the three ladies and Xiao Qiu didn’t. I feel that after we return to the temple, third young lady and Xiao Qiu should eat their fill before sleeping. I can’t let my body be exhausted.”
“Alright, stop flattering me, let’s go!” Gu Xin pushed him.
……
In xiyun temple, because of the murder, everyone in the temple was in danger.
The monks in the temple were still fine, especially the visitors. All of them wanted to go back. They had been confined in their rooms for a day and were not allowed to go out. Once the scope of their activities was limited, it was very frightening for such a thing to happen again.
When Gu Xin returned to the temple, the other visitors were all begging to see her.
Gu Xin went back to her room to drink some water before she got someone to bring them in.
Everyone’s question was the same, when could they leave?
Gu Xin laughed helplessly, ” it’s already dark now. It’s not easy to walk at night. Also, I’ve just observed that it might rain tonight. It’s safer for everyone to stay in the temple.
The crowd asked again, did they find the murderer? He heard that another body was found, and another girl from the Feng family had died.
yes, ” Gu Xin replied, ” a corpse was found in the forest on the west side. Another lady from the Feng family died. However, please rest assured that the three bodies were in the Feng family’s courtyard. This place was an important place for the Buddhist sect, so there shouldn’t be any strange things here. Everyone, rest in peace!”
The crowd also said that they were not afraid of strange things. What they were afraid of was that the murderer had not been caught and their personal safety was not guaranteed!
Gu Xin told everyone in a serious tone, ” I’ve already asked someone to invite the Ying family’s Army to help. They will be here soon. Everyone’s room will be guarded, so please don’t worry and rest in peace. As for leaving, before this case is closed, no one can leave, including me and my people.”
Gu Xin was very scary when she spoke seriously, so everyone stopped asking for fear of angering her.
At the start, all the nice words were just an illusion. Now, they knew that this was not a delicate little girl, but the princess Gu Xin who had landed in the western lands alone and was still able to achieve something in the western lands, promoting the harmonious development of the East and West.
