But considering that his second son Cen Xingxian has passed away, and his grandfather and grandmother have passed away many years ago, compared to his own life, this thing seems not to be worth remembering.

After thinking about it, I saw Cen Yongchang walking towards the study room holding the big pearl in his hand.

After entering the study, he picked up a box on the ground and carefully placed the big pearl into the box.

At this time, the night outside was already very deep. A few days ago, Shun Yongchang had not fallen asleep at this time, but tonight, for some reason, he had fallen asleep among the piles of books.

You see, his hands are holding the wooden box tightly.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, who had slept peacefully, was in good spirits today, and the steward Yin Xing on the side was also thinking about the meal he had last night, and also wanted to have another meal.

But the consumption there is not something that I can afford. To say that I can only afford it, only the masters, high officials and some wealthy family members can afford it.

"Yinxing." Guo Yushi said as he walked on the street.

After listening to the sound, the housekeeper Yin Xing looked towards the master with a face full of expression.

"How did you enjoy your meal at that restaurant last night?" Guo Kang asked.

Thinking about the food and wine last night, now that I think about it, I really want to have another meal. The butler Yin Xing nodded with a smile on his face and praised the food and wine last night.

Hearing what he said, Guo Kang smiled slightly and asked jokingly: "Sir, do you want me to treat you to another meal?"

"Is it true, Master?" Butler Yin Xing asked excitedly without much thought.

Guo Kang immediately retracted his smile: "You're kidding. I can't bear to do it. If I eat a meal now, what will the ladies do next time? Who can bear it if they get together to scold us both?"

."

After listening to the master's words, the steward Yin Xing thought about it and realized that it seemed to be true. He knew the temper of these ladies best, and he immediately felt a little frustrated.

Looking at the expression on the steward Yin Xing's face, and seeing that the government office hadn't arrived yet, Guo Yushi said: "The meal last night, compared with your monthly money, would have taken thirty or forty years."

After having such a meal, now I can’t afford this meal.”

The master's words made Yin Xing feel a little sad again.

After a while, Yin Xing asked in confusion: "Master, why do you think it's so easy for them to make money, but why is it so hard for us to make money?"

Looking at Yin Xing's expression and listening to these words, it really touched Guo Kang's own heart.

"I don't know, this is how the world is. Master, I have been investigating cases for so many years and have seen a lot. Those who are greedy for money in order to collect medical expenses for their children have owed a lot of debt and cannot pay back the money for a while.

, and what’s more, the expenses in this family are too high, and the money I earn is not enough to spend, so I am greedy. There are too many people in the world who earn little money like you." Master Guo Kang answered.

.

Listening to the master's words, housekeeper Yin Xing suddenly felt that living in this world was not that difficult after all.

As I walked, I walked into the government office without even realizing it.

Looking at this government office, Guo Kang actually didn't want to step in, because he knew that once he stepped in, it would mean that the case would start to be tried, and it would also mean that there would be

Many officials were punished for this case.

But this was official business and a matter for the people, and there was no room for thought. He walked in, followed by the steward Yin Xing.

Entering the yamen, he saw Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, and all the officials he saw greeted him.

After leaving, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, headed towards the office of the prefect Cen Yongchang.

As soon as we entered, we saw the prefect, Cen Yongchang, handling official business.

Seeing this, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, was still a little happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on the outside.

"Prefect Cen, what are you busy with?" Guo Yushi asked.

Seeing that it was Censor Guo, Magistrate Cen hurriedly raised his head and smiled slightly: "There are many things to do."

Indeed, Yu'an Prefecture is the provincial capital of Nanyu Province, and the government office of Yu'an Prefecture is not only the government office of Yu'an Prefecture, but also the government office of Nanyu Province.

Similarly, the prefect Cen Yongchang is not only the parent official of Yu'an Prefecture, but also the parent official of Nanyu Province.

Naturally, there are many things to do.

Seeing that he was so busy, he had official business to be busy with, and he also had official business to be busy with, Guo Yushi found a chair around and sat down.

After a while, before Yushi Guo could speak, Magistrate Cen put down what he was doing, took out the things he had prepared last night, and walked towards Yushi Guo with a fake smile.

"Guo Yushi, I'm really sorry for yesterday. This is a small gift, just think of it as an apology to you." Magistrate Cen said, holding a box in his hand.

Listening to these words, Guo Yushi seemed to have heard it countless times.

"No problem. Magistrate Cen, you'd better take back this gift." Guo Yushi refused.

As for Magistrate Cen, how could he give up so easily? He held the wooden box in his hand and insisted on giving it to me.

"Guo Yushi, just accept it."

"No, I cannot accept this gift."

"Hey, just accept it. It's just a small gift. Just accept it and I will apologize to you as an official."

"Can't accept it."

…

In the end, Guo Yushi could not agree with this gift, so he reluctantly accepted it. But accepting it did not mean that the case was settled.

Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, stood up from this chair and looked at the prefect Cen Yongchang with a serious face: "Prefect Cen, you should know why I came to Yu'an Mansion, right?"

"Know,

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I know." Magistrate Cen had begun to panic in his heart.

"Now that I know it, I will start. You also know that the court issued an order and you must give an explanation as soon as possible."

Magistrate Cen: "That's that."

Guo Yushi: "Then I won't say much. On behalf of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and under the order of the imperial court, I came to Yu'an Mansion to thoroughly investigate the case of using the sea ban to make profits." After saying this, Guo Yushi looked at him.

Looking at Magistrate Cen: "This court wants to interrogate the three people who caused trouble in the restaurant last night."

"Okay, okay, okay." Magistrate Cen was already extremely panicked.

"In that case, Magistrate Cen, please go ahead and do your business. I will handle my own affairs. If you are needed, please cooperate." Guo Yushi.

Magistrate Cen: "Yes, yes, yes."

I saw Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, walking out the door, followed by the steward Yin Xing.

The two of them went to the cell.

Cen Guan, the cell leader, saw Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, in the cell, and hurriedly came over to greet him. After all, his head was almost in danger yesterday, and he didn't want to make any mistakes again.

"Guo Yushi, if you have anything to do, just ask me." Cen Laotou asked with a smile on his face.

"This court wants to interrogate the three people who caused trouble in the restaurant last night." After saying this, he was afraid that the prison boss would not do it, so he deliberately showed his waist card in front of the prison boss Cen Guan.

"Okay. Guo Yushi, please wait a moment." After saying this, Cen Laotou swallowed his saliva and shouted: "Here comes someone!"

After a sound, two jailers came over.

"This is the current Zuodu Censor, Guo Censor. You two will show Guo Censor the way to Shen Tang." Chief Cen ordered. After giving the order, he looked at Guo Censor,

Smiling slightly: "Guo Yushi, please follow them first, and the younger one will bring them to you."

"Okay." Guo Yushi agreed and followed the two jailers, followed by the steward Yin Xing.

"Walk!"

"Let's go!"

Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, who was sitting in the trial hall, saw several jailers escorting the three people who made trouble in the restaurant last night.

"Kneel down!"

At this time, Cen Guan, the cell leader, came forward and said, "Guo Yushi, I brought it to you. Do you see it?"

Guo Yushi: "They stay here, you go and do your work first. I want to ask them a few words."

Chief Cen: "Okay, the young men will leave first. If you have anything to do, just give me your orders."

Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, nodded and said nothing.

Watching them leave, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, looked at the steward Yin Xing beside him and said, "Take the cloth out of their mouths."

Listening to the master's instructions, the housekeeper Yin Xing walked towards the three people and took out the cloth from their mouths one by one.

As soon as the cloth was taken out, the three of them felt as if they had entered another world. After all, the feeling of being stuffed with this cloth was too uncomfortable.
