Prefect Gan thought that Gu Xiao and Gu Qingying didn't believe it.
He quickly assured: "Everything Xiaguan said is true! Moreover, the letter from Lin Jiang threatening Xiaguan is still in the Yamen. It's not that Xianguan doesn't want to help General Xiao Gu, but Xianguan is afraid. He is afraid that the people in the city will do anything again.
At the hands of a murderer."
Magistrate Gan was talking about his difficulties with tears and snot in his nose.
He said how embarrassed he was.
But Gu Xiao just listened to these words.
It is a lie to say that I am not angry with Zhifu Gan.
He sympathized with Magistrate Gan's difficulty, but he didn't expect that Magistrate Gan was quite ruthless.
Gu Xiao suddenly laughed and said, "Prefect Gan, you don't have to be so nervous. I was just asking casually. We scared you."
I was just dissatisfied and a little suspicious of Magistrate Gan. I couldn't break up with him at this time. After all, there was no evidence.
Zhifu Gan was very panicked, knowing that Gu Xiao had already suspected him, so he could only deal with it bravely.
But in his heart, he scolded Lin Jiang thousands of times.
He had agreed to kill everyone, but in vain he also arranged for some officials in disguise to sneak in and help.
The result still failed.
Gu Qingying looked at Magistrate Gan with interest.
Because she was busy rescuing Gu Xiao, she hadn't asked about Magistrate Gan's affairs recently.
It seems that we need to get to know this prefect better.
There are rumors outside that the prefect is a good official.
Whether Magistrate Gan is a good official or not cannot be judged just by hearing rumors.
Only when you have personal contact with someone can you know whether he is really a good official.
But judging from the current situation, Prefect Gan seems to be very nervous and is deliberately hiding something.
Magistrate Gan smiled awkwardly.
He didn’t continue talking!
Because he was afraid that the opponent's attack would be too strong, he said everything he shouldn't have said.
Gu Qingying changed the topic and got back to the topic.
He glanced at Magistrate Gan and Gu Xiao indifferently and said: "Since Magistrate Gan is here, it's time to discuss the next arrangements. Magistrate Gan, you also know that my brother has suffered heavy losses in the people he brought this time, so I hope you can send more
Some officials assisted."
Magistrate Gan's pupils shrank.
She became embarrassed: "It's not that Miss Gu is unwilling to help General Gu because she is a subordinate. She is really powerless! The court also suppressed bandits once before, and that time there were heavy casualties. Now the officials in the Yamen are not only poor in martial arts, but also in poor health!
"
Both Gu Qingying and Gu Xiao understood.
In short, I just don't want to send anyone to help.
Gu Qingying and Gu Xiao didn't speak, and Magistrate Gan was embarrassed.
Gu Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "This matter really shouldn't bother Magistrate Gan, but Magistrate Gan doesn't need to worry. My sister and I have already discussed the countermeasures to suppress the bandits, and we will attack the bandit stronghold in three days."
When Magistrate Gan saw that the brother and sister were unwilling to continue talking.
I can only leave in silence.
This time he was embarrassed, but fortunately he got important news.
Gu Qingying looked at the back of Magistrate Gan and said thoughtfully: "There is something wrong with this Magistrate Gan."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the Hidden Sect Killer not far away and said, "Old Liu, come here."
The killer who was called Lao Liu quickly walked up to Gu Qingying.
Gu Qingying said: "Do you know anything about this Magistrate Gan?"
Lao Liu hurriedly said: "We have been in Qingcheng for a while. The reputation of Gan Zhifu is still very good, but we found that there is a problem with the government officials. These officials will go out of the city every once in a while. After returning,
I would always bring a few wooden boxes back to the Yamen. I had never investigated these official affairs before, so I didn’t pay attention to what was in the boxes.”
After they got the news, all their attention was on the bandits.
As for what the official did.
What did the prefect Gan do? These are not their concerns.
Gu Qingying frowned and said, "Is there any other news?"
Lao Liu shook his head and said with certainty: "I don't know anything else."
Gu Qingying asked Lao Liu to go down.
Then he asked Gu Xiao: "What did you mean when you said three days later?"
The two of them had obviously discussed when to take action, but Gu Xiao deliberately said this in front of Magistrate Gan.
She didn't believe that Gu Xiao had no other purpose.
So definitely.
There is a reason why Gu Xiao did this.
Gu Xiao said seriously: "When I chose the time to attack, Prefect Gan knew that we were not looking for someone who might betray us. I was actually a little suspicious of Prefect Gan."
Doesn’t this coincide with Gu Qingying!
Gu Qingying also suspected Magistrate Gan.
"Why don't we investigate it carefully?"
After finishing speaking, Gu Qingying said to the several killers: "Keep an eye on Prefect Gan and the officials leaving the city. I want to make sure whether Prefect Gan has anything to do with these bandits."
Nowadays, Gu Qingying doesn't trust anyone except the people from the Hidden Sect and Gu Xiao.
Several killers left.
Gu Xiao was particularly envious and said: "You are still very impressive. These people all listen to you."
He felt proud when he thought that his sister was the owner of the mysterious hidden door.
Gu Qingying said helplessly: "Why don't you say that a hundred thousand troops will listen to you? You must have been very hard during this period! Have a good night's rest first, and the remaining people will be settled!"
Gu Xiao said that the arrangements were completed, and Gu Qingying relaxed.
Gu Xiao was indeed tired.
The tense nerves during this period can finally be relieved.
This is a very good thing.
Gu Qingying didn't rest. He wandered around the city and listened to some gossip.
Gu Xiao didn't wake up until the evening.
Gu Xiao's spirits improved a lot.
I am no longer as depressed as before.
Gu Xiao was also in a good mood, and after getting up, he would drag Gu Qingying to eat with him.
Gu Qingying happened to be hungry too.
He simply asked the shopkeeper to bring a jug of wine, and the two brothers and sisters ate the vegetables and drank the wine.
Gu Xiao complained: "Do you know how I got here these ten days? I just eat and sleep in the open every day, and I can't eat well!"
Gu Qingying rolled her eyes at Gu Xiao and said: "You have the nerve to say that you have experienced hundreds of battles, but you are so careless, falling into other people's traps without even knowing it, and losing so many people. Even if the mission is completed this time, the emperor will not
They will blame you, and the ministers of the DPRK will also use this as an excuse to impeach you!"
Gu Xiao just sighed helplessly.
What had happened had happened, and there was nothing he could do.
Gu Qingying asked: "Suppressing bandits is such a big thing, why did the emperor give you so many people?"
One hundred officers and soldiers is really very few.
Gu Xiao said with some dissatisfaction in his eyes: "The soldiers were given to me by Li Cangjue. They gave me a hundred in total. He also said that there are not many bandits and I can bring some guards."
Fortunately, he brought more than thirty guards with him, otherwise he would probably have died in the bandits' stronghold.
This incident made Gu Qingying cautious.
She didn't want the Gu family's reputation to be insulted.
Even if you do it, you have to do it beautifully.
So he said: "Write a memorial now and say that the number of bandits exceeds expectations and that a hundred officers and soldiers are not enough."
