"Hou Banting, take care of your subordinates."

Gu Ming withdrew his foot and glanced at Hou San and said coldly.

"Hehe, that's right. If you kick me, you guys will be able to eat it."

The thief actually smiled at Hou San and others with a look of watching the show.

Now, Hou San was so angry that he lost his mind and actually pulled out the knife...

"Gu Ming, I have been tolerating you for a long time. What qualifications do you have to teach my subordinates a lesson?

And this little thief dares to speak wildly..."

When he heard the name of little thief again, Zuoyu finally couldn't help it.

Before Sanbiao finished, he sarcastically said, "You are blind. In the famous stolen jade in the Xia Dynasty, how can a little thief compare with?"

Stealing jade?

As soon as this word came out, Hou San and others changed their faces and looked at each other in surprise.

The face was burning and painful.

"Gu Bantu, he...is he really stealing jade?"

Hou San was shocked and confused, as if he had forgotten the unhappiness just now, and also called him being at the head of Gu Bantu.

As a result, Gu Ming said: "Yes or not, we will see the difference tomorrow!"

After saying that, he turned around and left with the thief.

"Hahaha, a bunch of waste!"

The thief held a grudge against the other party and called him a little thief. While walking, he spoke sarcastically. He didn't seem to be afraid at all, and he was not worried that the other party would take revenge on him.

Of course, it is not the turn of Hou San to take revenge.

This case was personally supervised by the prefect. Once the person was arrested, the prefect would probably be tried overnight.

After all, catching the stolen jade is second, what's the use of even cutting his head?

What Lord Zhuo wanted was not the life of stealing jade, but the book that he stole.

"Hou Bantu, this guy named Gu is simply...why should we grab the person back?"

One of the men actually had a whim and came up with such a bad idea.

"roll!"

Hou San didn't speak, rushed out of his subordinates and cursed, turning around.

Snatch people?

He thought, but he didn't dare.

At this moment, there was only jealousy, crazy jealousy and hatred in his heart.

He didn't understand what was going on, and why Gu Ming pressed him everywhere as soon as he came.

First he took away his position as the head of the class, and then he made consecutive contributions.

This time, I wanted to take advantage of the case of stealing jade and searched the streets almost all the time, but I was one step late and was taken first by Gu Ming.

But this guy never looks for reasons in himself.

What big can a person who only knows jealousy and being petty?

...

"What? Gu Banto caught the stole jade?"

"He's the only one?"

"Is it true? So many of us haven't caught it before..."

"The news should not be false. The chief chief has already reported to the prefect in person."

The news spread immediately, causing a boil.

Not long after, the prefect, surrounded by his subordinates, rushed to the execution room and prepared to personally interrogate him overnight.

But, the mouth of the thief is very hard.

"Master, I am definitely not stealing a book, I just keep it for Lord Zhuo."

When the prefect heard this, he was so happy.

If it were an ordinary criminal, I would have ordered a thirty-year-old to be punished.

"You need to keep other people's things? According to your theory, if you go to the money house to rob the money, will you also help others keep the money?"

"My sir is such a bad thing!" Zuoyu explained calmly: "Everything in the world must not be compared with books.

You are also a scholar. I believe you should be a juren, so you will naturally understand the importance of books.

Especially some precious books and some lonely books have been lost to the hands of some famous people, which is deeply saddened.

Therefore, these books will be taken away and kept properly, so as not to be covered with dust from the pearls…”

"absurd!"

The prefect slapped the table.

"This is just your own memorial. No matter how precious the book is, it is for people to read.

I think you are a scholar and a bookworm, so you can open your eyes.

As long as you hand over Lord Zhuo’s book, I promise you that you will definitely be lenient…”

He even coaxed and slandered, but he still didn't let go.

Now, the prefect was completely angry.

"Stirring jade, don't force me to torture you."

Zuoyu thought for a while and said, "Well, it's not impossible to hand over the book. But I have a condition to find the boy who caught me. I didn't drink it all the time last time. If I drink it all the time this time, I might hand over the book."

The prefect was stunned.

Liu Jin immediately said with his ears: "Sir, it seems that he can only meet his requirements. He can't escape in the prison room anyway."

"Okay, then you can arrange it quickly."

Not long after, in Jin Buhuan's office, Gu Ming sat down with Zuoyu and drank again.

The significance of drinking this time is different and the responsibility is heavy.

Whether this guy can speak depends on whether the wine is so painful today.

"Stirring jade, why do you have to? Since the magistrate has promised you to be gentle, why do you have to be slow?"

"You don't understand, I really can't bear to hand it over..."

Gu Ming: "..."

"Maybe you won't understand, just as some people are obsessed with money, obsessed with women is a truth, and I am obsessed with books.

There can be no wine or women, but there can be no books…”

"There are no shortages of these books by Lord Zhuo."

"Let's not talk about this for now. I didn't drink enough last time. Today we will be friends. Have a few drinks..."

I drank about two hours after a meal of wine.

Fortunately, Gu Ming has a good physique and is drunk, but he is still able to stay awake.

The stolen jade was a little drunk.

After drinking, he spoke the truth and finally told the whereabouts of those books.

What was unexpected was that after the book was stolen, he did not take it away and still hid it in Zhuo Mansion.

I thought that after the limelight had passed, I would leave Gusu Mansion with a letter, but I was caught by Gu Ming.

Gu Ming immediately walked out of the room.

Outside, a large group of people were waiting impatiently.

"How about it?"

Jin Buhuan rushed forward and asked.

"The book is still in Zhuo Mansion..."

Not long after, Jin Buhuan personally led a team to Zhuo Mansion. Sure enough, he found the books on the beam of an eaves.

Zhuo Zhishan naturally cried with joy when he retrieved the lost book and claimed thanks for Jin Buhuan.

Jin Buhuan was not greedy for me and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhuo, this case is all up to me, a subordinate named Gu Ming. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have caught the thief who stole the book so smoothly."

"I must go back and visit Master Luo and thank you in person..."

At this point, the case of losing the book that was uneasy in the city finally subsided.

Zhu Zhishan did not break his promise and personally sent 300 taels of silver to the government office, and wrote a letter to express his gratitude.

The government office also offered a reward of 100 taels.

This time, he was very open and did not deduct one or two taels, and all 400 taels were sent to the arresting room.

Gu Ming caught the person, and it was obvious that the reward was his.

However, for the long-term plan, Gu Ming did not eat alone, leaving only 200 taels, and the remaining 200 taels were handed over to the chief constable Liu Jin.

This move was deeply appreciated by Liu Jin and Jin Budian.
