Drunk House Chapter 327

Chapter 327 Where to go (one more)

Xie Lin looked at Zhou Gu eagerly, wanting to hear him clarify his doubts.

Zhou Gu stopped talking, and said to Xie Lin: "What's the point of sitting here? How about going out to race horses?"

Xie Lin looked at him and reminded: "Your injury is still not healed."

"It's all right now."

Xie Lin shook his head, "Here, the snow outside the city hasn't melted yet, so if you go out for a horse race, the horse won't be able to run, right?"

"Then go hunting." Zhou Gu said.

Xie Lin hesitated, "I think it's better not to. Didn't you listen to Su Rong's warning to you to recover from your injuries that day? Since you can't let her go, you should listen to her."

Zhou Gu was speechless.

Xie Lin saw that he had given up on going out of the city, and suggested to him, "If you feel depressed and want to vent, why don't we ask some brothers to go to the building to listen to the music? Let the girl in the building play and sing the general song?"

Zhou Gu was not interested, "The girl in the building plays and sings the general song, are you sure you are not insulting the general song?"

Xie Lin scratched his head, "This is just to have fun."

Zhou Gu sneered, "The dignitaries are really looking for all kinds of fun. In my opinion, the people of Jingzhaoyin are really negligent if they don't clean up the atmosphere in the Red Mansion Restaurant." After finishing speaking, he squinted at Xie Lin, "Didn't you never go to the Red Mansion before? Why? Now you have learned the style of the dudes in the capital? Are you not afraid that King Rui'an will break your leg?"

Xie Lin apologized immediately, "Brother, don't, I really haven't been there once. The first time I entered the red building, you took me to the third floor of Jiangning County. After returning to Beijing, I was preparing for the scientific examination. After the scientific examination, I was dragged by my father to investigate the case with him. How can I have time? I just heard that the girl in the building played the general song sonorously and powerfully. Go, don't go, don't sell me out.”

Zhou Gu Wenyan let him go, tapped his fingers on the table, stood up, "Let's go."

"Where are you going? Do you want to go back?" Xie Lin stretched out his hand and tugged at him, "Don't, how long have we been sitting? Finally came out."

"If you don't go back, go to your mansion. While the case of the person locked up in your mansion has not been settled, I will go to meet the eldest concubine and Ning Ze." Zhou Gu said.

Xie Lin muttered, "Isn't this going back home?"

Zhou Gu looked at him, "Then you don't want to come back, if you don't, I can go by myself."

Xie Lin was helpless, "Walk, go, go back and forth."

He asked Zhou Gu curiously, "What do you want to see them for? The eldest concubine will not end well. As for Ning Ze, with the Marquis of Nanping here, he will not be beheaded, but there will be no good end. Even if he gets good grades in the scientific examination, he will be expelled."

"Let them recruit something other than the case." Zhou Gu said, and walked out of the room.

Xie Lin suddenly became interested, "This is fine."

The two left the teahouse and went directly to the Rui'an Palace.

In the current Ruian Palace, only the eldest concubine Ning Yao and her younger brother Ning Ze are imprisoned. But the two were not locked together.

Rui'an Palace did not treat Ning Yao harshly, but provided food and drink for offerings. Except that they could not leave the cell, everything was suitable for pregnant women.

Because King Rui'an was not sure whether His Majesty would keep the child in her womb, so nothing happened to her until the imperial decree dealt with it.

After Zhou Gu and Xie Lin entered the mansion, Zhou Gu first went to see King Rui'an.

Ruian Wang is really sick this time, he has already drank the decoction and is lying on the bed, his fever has just come down, and he is sweating.

Seeing Zhou Gu coming, he waved his hand and asked him, "Why did you come to Fuchu? Are you looking for Xie Lin to play?"

Zhou Gu shook his head, "I want to meet the eldest concubine and Ning Ze, please excuse me."

King Ruian didn't ask much, and waved his hand, "It's simple, go! But you have to be careful, the child in her belly must be left to His Majesty to dispose of, and don't kill anyone."

Zhou Gu nodded, "Don't worry, my lord."

Xie Lin accompanied Zhou Gu to the place where Ning Ze was imprisoned. Zhou Gu planned to chat with Ning Ze first.

Compared to Ning Yao, Ning Ze was not treated so well. Not to mention his broken finger, and he didn't have an amulet in his stomach. Naturally, his food and drink were much worse than Ning Yao's. The dark prison he lived in was not as good as a kennel.

Ning Ze is long gone. The first time he saw Su Rong in the First Prince's Mansion, he barely looked like a handsome young man. Now he is dark, thin and pale, locked in a dark prison all day long, and his spirit is about to collapse. He almost wants to commit suicide.

But he is afraid of death, suicide is impossible, and death is worse than life.

The prison door opened, and Zhou Gu led the way into the dungeon. When he kicked in and out of the door, the smell was so strong that Zhou Gu almost took his outstretched foot back, turned around and left.

Xie Lin felt similar to Zhou Gu.

But Zhou Gu didn't leave, and went into the dark prison, Xie Lin could only hold his nose and follow him into it.

Ning Ze was neither chained nor bound by a pillar. In the small cell, he could move freely, but it was limited to such a little freedom.

In the past, servants would bring food in, and they would leave without saying a word, without asking questions, and he had no one to talk to.

Today he thought that another servant came, but unexpectedly, the people who came in were Zhou Gu and Xie Lin. He had nothing to do with these two people. Zhou Gu was from the East Palace, and the Rui'an Palace where Xie Lin was born had always remained neutral. If Feng Ling hadn't cut off his fingers neatly in front of Xie Lin that day, Xie Lin's expression would have subverted his cognition.

When he used to be proud and arrogant, he was favored by his father, and he had a sister who became the eldest concubine. She could trample her elder brother Ning Chi under her feet, and felt that no one was as good as him. When he came to the capital, he didn't hold back much, thinking that the eldest prince and the second prince could join forces to set up half the sky and call for the wind and rain. Who would have imagined that, before the results of the scientific examination were released, her sister was exposed, and he ended up like this.

He regretted it to death. If he had known this day, he would not go to Beijing, and he would not take scientific examinations. Just like Ning Chi, if he didn't come to Beijing for scientific research, he would fight with Ning Chi at home and fight Ning Chi to death, and his father's title would be his. Isn't it good for him to guard the title?

Seeing Zhou Gu and Xie Lin now, he still panicked and asked, "What are you doing here? Did His Majesty say he would let me go?"

Zhou Gu looked at him with a blank expression, "Ning Ze, do you want to live or die?"

Ning Ze's pupils constricted, a little panicked, "Of course I want to live."

Zhou Gu looked at him as cowardly as a mouse, and looked down upon him, but often the more unpromising he was, the more useful he was, because no one looked down on him, and he would look down on him and be careless because of his disdain, "If you want to live, then you can say whatever I ask you, and if you don't say anything, or if you don't say enough, you just wait for death!"

After he finished speaking, he said coldly: "Anyway, it's easier to crush you to death than to crush an ant."
