Zhu Ba hesitated for a while and finally explained his purpose.

"Bonto Gu, I originally... I didn't want to bother you, but I really had no choice..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Sister Guihua suddenly covered her face and couldn't swallow it.

"Is this... someone bullying you?"

Gu Ming asked coldly.

No matter what, Zhu Ba is now his confidant, and Sister Guihua has done her best to clean up the house in an orderly manner and dress up Qianxun beautifully.

"Oh, it's all my fault for being incompetent brother-in-law..."

Zhu Ba sighed and began to talk about the whole story.

The brother-in-law he mentioned was Guihua's younger brother Wang Xing.

Guihua's hometown was originally in the countryside, but Wang Xing inherited his father's business and still learned cooking skills as decently as he did, so he came to Gusu Mansion to make a living and became the chef of a restaurant.

The income is still good, and it costs about two taels of silver a month, which is several times more than an ordinary person.

But this kid is good everywhere, but he just likes to bet a few things.

Whenever I have free time, I run to the gambling house.

For this reason, Zhu Ba advised him many times, and Wang Xing deserved it quickly every time, and he forgot everything when he turned around.

Another advantage of working in a restaurant is that it includes food and accommodation.

In other words, if you save a little, you can save more than one or two silver dollars in a month.

As a result, this kid has been working for two years and is almost completely honest and has lost all his money.

Two days ago, I just got my salary and went to gamble.

As a result, he had an argument with someone. The other party pushed Wang Xing to the ground with great force and beat him up.

Wang Xing was furious and grabbed a stool to fight back. He accidentally hit the other party's forehead and smashed his head and bloodied.

A constable happened to pass by outside. As soon as he heard the movement, he rushed in and caught the two of them.

"Later, the evil man who started the fight first complained first, and then spent some money to release him, but my brother-in-law was locked in prison.

After learning the news, I ran to Nanjian to ask for someone.

I thought it would be fine with some face and that things wouldn't be a big deal, so there should be no problem.

But... I'm touching the gray nose..."

"Who caught it?" Gu Ming asked with a frown.

"It's... Hou San's subordinate."

"No wonder!" Gu Ming suddenly realized.

This guy Hou San has always been with him, and he has a rare opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

"It's fine, the key is that my brother-in-law is in prison... he has been in a very bad life. He was beaten to pieces all over his body..."

"This is too much!"

Gu Ming slapped the table and stopped drinking.

"Let's go, come with me."

If Zhu Ba did not lie, Wang Xing was pressed to the ground and beaten, and grabbed the bench and fought back, it would be self-defense, and the other party would not have much trouble.

If you hold on and beat them deliberately, it is obviously a kind of act of revenge.

Gu Ming knew very well that this matter was not aimed at Zhu Ba, but at him.

He is the head of the team. If he doesn't come forward, how can he let his subordinates obey him in the future?

Simply put, this is obviously a stumbling block from Hou Sanshi. He deliberately wanted to make Gu Ming ugly and see how he used his move.

Unexpectedly, after coming to Nanjian, he couldn't even see Wang Xing.

One of the jailers whispered: "Gu Bantu, don't make things difficult for the young people. This matter was a greeting from Lord Zhong this morning, saying that no one was allowed to visit Wang Xing's prison without his permission."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ming couldn't help but angrily: "What's the reason for this? Even if Wang Xing takes the initiative to beat someone, it's just a small dispute. Why is it like a big thief?"

"This... I really don't dare to take the initiative. Why don't you go and ask the prison chief?"

"Then, the head of this class is going to go in and interrogate other criminals? They are not allowed to enter?"

"Gu Bantu, I'm going to tell you that Wang Xing was locked in a cell alone, and even if you go to the jail, you won't be able to see him."

"Haha, I understand, okay, Zhu Ba, let's go!"

After leaving Nanjian, Zhu Bayi looked pale and murmured: "It's over. I didn't expect that even Lord Zhong... I'm afraid he's going to be a serious crime. If this is the case, how can I explain to my wife..."

Indeed, if it weren't for the serious criminal, how could he be detained alone?

Can't even meet a detective team?

"Don't hurry..."

Gu Ming frowned and thought for a while, and glanced at the tavern inadvertently.

"Go in and have a drink."

"Ah? Still... still drinking?"

"Let's go, maybe you can find out something."

Before, Gu Ming accidentally heard some rumors about Afeng.

Whether it is true or false, this woman is not simple, and maybe she knows some inside information.

As soon as he entered the tavern, Afeng came up enthusiastically and threw an indescribable look at Gu Ming: "Oh, Gu Bantu, are you free to come here today?"

"Why? Not welcome?"

"Why, I'm afraid that Gu Banting will not come... You two will sit down first, I'll prepare wine and food for you."

Without waiting for Gu Ming to say something, the woman volunteered to go and prepare.

There were several jailmen in the store drinking. Ben was chatting excitedly. When he saw Gu Ming and the others coming in, they greeted each other. Then, they stopped chatting and just drank.

"Gu Bantu, do you see that these wine and food are enough?"

Afeng came over with a hurried person.

"Okay, that's it."

"If you don't have enough, just open your mouth, and let me treat you today."

"No, no, no, if you don't charge money, I won't drink this wine."

Gu Ming doesn't want to take advantage of this woman because he is a little bit of money.

"Okay, okay, anyway, you drink it first..."

After a while, several jailers checked in and left.

It was obvious that everyone knew in their hearts that Gu Ming must have been to Nanjian and was in a state of anger.

It’s better to have less trouble this trip.

As soon as the person was exposed, Gu Ming shouted at A Feng: "Boss, there is no one anymore, so why don't you come and have two drinks?"

"Oh, Gu Bantu told me, how could I not obey it?"

This is what I say...

Zhu Ba's eyes look at the nose and the nose look at the heart, as if it is transparent.

At this time, he almost guessed Gu Ming's intention and wanted to take out something from this woman.

After all, the relationship between Afeng and Lord Zhong is not a secret.

Maybe Mrs. Zhong is kept in the dark.

Besides, what can she do if she knows? Maybe Zhong Zhixing gave up and simply took Afeng as his concubine. Wouldn't she be worth the loss?

So even if you know, you may turn a blind eye.

After sitting down and chatting for a few words, Gu Ming asked Wang Xing straight to the point.

"Boss, you often have jailmen here. I heard that Lord Zhong also comes to drink sometimes, so I want to ask you something."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"I'll introduce it to you first. This is one of my subordinates named Zhu Ba.

His brother-in-law Wang Xing was arrested in the South Prison for having an argument and tugging with someone in a gambling house…”

Before Gu Ming finished speaking, A Feng said oh and said meaningfully: "I have really heard from someone mention this."

"who?"

"Don't worry, come and drink and tell you slowly..."
