Chapter 73 Saving People (1 more)
Zhou Gu thought that the last letter came not long ago, and another one came so soon. I don't know when His Royal Highness missed him so much. It was probably because of looking for that woman.
He reached out to take the letter in Zhou Xi's hand, opened it, the letter was very short, and wrote two meanings, the first meaning was that he had already taken action against Jiang Sheng, the governor of Jiangzhou, and the Jiangzhou governor's office would be condemned soon, and he planned to let Su Taishou Su Xu succeed Jiangzhou governor. Another meaning is that the person he is looking for has already been found, and there is no need for him to look for it again.
Zhou Gu closed the letter, waved to Zhou Xi, and Zhou Xi retreated.
Zhou Gu stuffed the letter into his arms, hesitated for a moment, felt that Su Xu's promotion could still be discussed with Su Rong, after all, it was related to the Su family, so he said to Su Rong: "His Royal Highness was assassinated in Jiangzhou area a few months ago, and has been tracing who did it. There are some clues, and it is inseparable from the governor of Jiangzhou. Originally, His Royal Highness did not plan to move Jiang Sheng now, but now it is known that Jiangzhou Governor's House and Nanping Hou's House intend to tie the knot." Dear, it can be seen that the assassination of His Highness the Crown Prince may be used by Jiang Sheng to surrender to the First Prince, in this case, it is time for Jiang Sheng to act. So, His Highness the Crown Prince has already started."
Su Rong blinked his eyes, "Assassinating the prince is a serious crime, you want to punish the nine clans?"
Zhou Gu nodded, "En."
Su Rong was tsk tsk in his heart, thinking that Jiang Sheng's family had controlled Jiangzhou and acted like a dominance all these years. Although they didn't bring down his father, they also put on a lot of shoes for his father.
She thought of Jiang Xing, and immediately asked: "Jiang Xing is a branch of Jiang's family, he will be implicated, right?"
Zhou Gu paused for a moment, then nodded, "En."
Su Rong couldn't bear it, "Jiang Xing is very talented, just like my elder brother, he is also waiting for the golden autumn scientific examination. If this happens now, his future will be gone, and his life will not be guaranteed..."
She suddenly felt that Zhu Jiuzu was too serious, "Will you not be punished lightly?"
"Probably not. Assassinating the crown prince is a serious crime. What's more, killing Jiang Sheng's family is a great crime. It is also a deterrent to those who plan to take refuge in the eldest prince and the second prince. Don't act rashly." Zhou Gu looked at Su Rong, "Can't bear Jiang Xing?"
"It's not that I can't bear it." Su Rong shook her head, feeling that what he said was wrong, and corrected: "I just think it's a pity for him. His family is very low-key, and his parents are usually very kind, which is very different from Jiang Sheng's family."
She looked at Zhou Gu, "Is there a way to save Jiang Xing's family?"
"Do you want to save?" Consultant Zhou.
"Well, when I ask you this, I naturally want to save you." Su Rong nodded.
Zhou Gu thought for a while and said: "It's not impossible. If he seeks refuge with His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness the Crown Prince can find a reason to protect his family. For example, if his father exterminates his relatives righteously and exposes Jiang Sheng's crimes, it is best to report Jiang Sheng's collusion with anyone, so that his family can be separated from Jiang Sheng's family."
After he finished speaking, he added, "However, His Royal Highness does not accept everyone. You must be recommended by a reliable person."
"You." Su Rong looked at him, "Brother Zhou, you also know Jiang Xing, what do you think of him? Is he a talented person? Would it be a pity to be implicated by Jiang Sheng?"
Zhou Gu finally found out. When Su Rong needed anything from him, he would call him brother Zhou.
This is affirmation of Jiang Xing.
Su Rong looked at him, "Then..."
"Jiang Xing's family must also cooperate." Zhou Gudao: "Your Highness has already done something there. If you want to save his family, you have to do it as soon as possible. But Jiang Sheng doesn't know yet, so don't leak the news. Once the news is leaked, I'm afraid it will ruin the business of His Royal Highness."
Su Rong sat up straight, "I sent someone to make an appointment with Jiang Sheng and talk to him in private. After all, it is a matter of saving his family's life. Let him choose. If he agrees, it's worth your trouble. If he has affection and righteousness for Jiang Sheng's family, then I'm begging you in vain."
After she finished speaking, she assured Zhou Gu, "With me as a guarantor, I will take care of him, and I will never let him spoil the affairs of His Royal Highness. How?"
She also wished Jiang Sheng's family would fall.
Zhou Gu readily agreed, "Okay!"
Zhou Gu is not a narrow-minded person. Even if Jiang Xing admires his fiancée, Jiang Xing did not offend him and did not do anything out of the ordinary.
So, Su Rong sent someone to call Jiang Xing, and asked him to eat drunk goose at Drunken Goose Square at noon.
Su Rong didn't intend to tell Prefect Su and Su Xingze, after all, this matter had a lot to do with it, Zhou Gu was able to tell her because he trusted her. Although Su Taishou and Su Xing would not say it to the outside world, sometimes it is better to have one thing more than one thing, so as not to waste words. What's more, the promotion has to do with Prefect Su. Su Rong thinks it's better for him to be promoted. All these years, he stayed in Jiangning for her, and was troubled by Mr. Jiang Sheng wearing small shoes.
After sending someone to deliver a message to Jiang Xing, Su Rong stood up and said to Zhou Gu: "Let's go, let's go to Drunken Goose Square and wait for him."
Zhou Gu nodded, thinking that he could rest in the house for a day, but he had to go out again, but the Drunken Goose in Drunken Goose Square was delicious, so it was a place he would like to go to.
The two went out of the house together, and Su Xing got the news very quickly, thinking that Zhou Gu couldn't be idle, as soon as he was idle, Su Rong would accompany him.
After Su Rong and Zhou Gu arrived at Drunken Goose Square, they asked for a private room, and then drank tea while waiting for Jiang Xing.
This private room is facing the street. Zhou Gu sat by the window, and he could see people coming and going on the street with his head tilted. After he drank half a cup of tea, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure, guarded by a group of people. Walking on the street, he was stunned for a moment, and took a closer look. Sure enough, it was someone he knew even when he turned into ashes.
Zhou Gu frowned and muttered, "Why did he come to Jiangning?"
"Who is it?" Su Rong went to the window and looked out. There were a lot of people on the street. One person was protected by a group of people. They couldn't see their faces, but they were all dressed in brocade clothes and guards.
"Thank you Lin."
"Who is Xie Lin?"
Zhou Gu turned his head and glanced at her, "The one who fought with me."
Su Rong suddenly realized, "Oh, it's the little prince of the Rui'an Palace, why did he come here? Did he pass by?"
Zhou Gu shook his head, "Who knows."
"Could he be chasing you to fight?" Su Rong guessed.
Zhou Gu snorted, "He couldn't beat me in the capital, but can he beat me here?"
Su Rong thought about it too, and said to him: "Jiangning is my territory, if he chases you and fights with you, as your fiancée, I will definitely help you."
Zhou Gu suddenly remembered that he met Xie Lin by chance before leaving Beijing. At that time, he reconciled with Xie Lin for the sake of face, bragging about how beautiful his fiancée was in front of Xie Lin, but also bad-heartedly felt that his fiancée had a low status, and wanted to get Xie Lin a low-status fiancée, so that he would not be laughed at.
He paused, concealed his bad thoughts, and said to Su Rong sincerely: "Then you have to protect me."
Su Rong: "..."
While speaking, the team of people passed through the street.
At the same time, Jiang Xing pushed open the door of the private room. At first he thought it was just Su Rong asking him out. When he saw Zhou Gu who was sitting with Su Rong, Jiang Xing stopped.
Zhou Gu looked clearly, and smiled, "Brother Jiang."
These days, Zhou Guyou, Su Xing, and Jiang Xing and the others became acquainted with each other, because he didn't have the problem of a nobleman looking down on others, and he was very talented, so he was appreciated by others, and he gradually became a brother to each other.
Jiang Xing took his seat and asked suspiciously, "Brother Zhou is looking for me for something?"
"It's not me." Zhou Gu shook his head, "I came with Xiao Qi."
Jiang Xing was stunned for a moment. He knew that all members of the Su family called Su Rong Xiaoqi. This was the first time he heard Su Rong's address from an outsider of Zhou Gu.
Su Rong was also stunned for a moment. Usually Zhou Gu would call her by her name, but now she suddenly called her Xiaoqi, and she didn't realize it herself. She glanced at Zhou Gu and saw that he was calm and seemed to be talking so naturally.
