Chapter 1773: I Was Bought Off

The man gasped and watched as the bloody dagger pressed against his eyelid.

Shao Qingyuan was just about to exert force, but the man finally screamed, closed his eyes in collapse and shouted, "I'm not an assassin, someone bought me and made me embarrassed Mrs. Shao, no matter what I do." ”

Shao Qingyuan's movements paused, "Someone bought you?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Seeing that the dagger was moved away a little, the man nodded busily, and snot and tears poured out, "It's really someone who bribed me and asked me to find an opportunity to question Mrs. Shao's identity, it is best to provoke disputes, let Mrs. Shao become the target of public criticism, and ruin her reputation, my invitation was also given to me by that person, and he also gave me fifty taels of silver." I'm just trying to make some money, I'm not an assassin......"

How did he know that it was so difficult to earn fifty taels of silver, the man obviously told him that there was no problem, but it was just a matter of saying a few words, but now it was clear that he was going to pay for his life.

Shao Qingyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who bought you?" ”

The man was about to cry again, "I don't know. Seeing Shao Qingyuan approaching with a dagger again, he hurriedly said, "But I heard the man's voice, really, I heard it." The man was in the lobby today, and he was one of the doctors, the one who sat in the fifth person in the third row. ”

Dr. Wei?

Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong glanced at each other, wasn't it the one who followed You Li to find Bai Yong before, and openly and secretly said that Gu Yundong was not worthy of one of Shao Qingyuan's five doctors?

Shao Qingyuan nodded and glanced at the man on the straw pile, "You'd better tell the truth, I'll investigate now, if you lie to me, heh......"

The man shuddered fiercely and hurriedly shook his head.

Shao Qingyuan asked his name again, and after learning that his name was Zhao Jun, he knocked the person unconscious, and then covered him with a cloth again, this time by the way, he also blocked his mouth.

After he finished doing it, he got up and said, "Let's go, let's go find Uncle Wei." ”

Gu Yundong and Shao Qing walked out of the firewood room, and the sky was slowly darkening.

When they returned to the lobby, there were still a lot of people there, but some of them had left.

At least those scholars left, after all, this courtyard is located in the suburbs, and when they came, they came in a carriage rented by Pingnanhou, but they needed to walk when they returned.

The rest of the doctors, except for a few nobles, are the hundreds of doctors.

The meal had already been served in the courtyard, and Yi Zilan was pushing the cup and changing the lamp with everyone, talking about the things in the capital.

But Shao Qingyuan and the two listened for a while, and they both heard a little meaning.

It seems to be just ordinary chatter and bragging, but Yi Zilan actually consciously revealed some developments in the capital, indirectly explaining the emperor's great achievements and deeds.

Seeing Shao Qingyuan and them, Yi Zilan hurriedly greeted them.

"Where did the county lord and the county master go? It hurt me to find it for a while. Today is your great day, and how can you be missing from this time of celebration? ”

When everyone heard Shao Qingyuan's title as the county master, the expression on their faces became a little strange for a while.

Shao Qingyuan and the two were helpless, at this juncture, it seemed too abrupt to leave, so he could only be pulled by him to eat and chat.

It was only when they had enough food and wine that the two were able to get out.

Most of the guests who stayed behind were resting in the courtyard tonight, and Yi Zilan was also sent to the guest room early to rest.
