Chapter 2682 Sigh
"Xiaoqiu, be careful. I'll go over to find out the situation first." Gu Xin turned to Zheng Qiu and said.
"Okay." Zheng Qiu nodded, and then began to prepare for the autopsy.
Seeing that she had already started to prepare, Gu Xin asked Lord Xu to lead the way. When she reached the door, she glanced at Fatty Wang who was being pinched and beaten, pursed her lips, turned around and continued to go out.
Lord Xu was not sure about Gu Xin's temper, so he took Gu Xin to a small room without saying anything.
There were only tables, chairs and benches in this room, and some firewood was piled in the corner.
"Your Highness, this is the firewood room. There are many courtyards in Hongyuan Temple, all for pilgrims to stay. Sometimes pilgrims come with a family, and it is inconvenient to share things with other people in the temple, so there are separate firewood rooms in courtyards like this. In fact, there is no bed in the whole courtyard except the firewood room and the main hall, and there is no dead person. I am really ashamed to ask Your Highness to condescend to this." Lord Xu explained to Gu Xin.
"It's okay. Lord Xu, you don't have to talk like that. Just say whatever you want. I don't have any special requirements for the environment. Just make things clear." Gu Xin said.
Dong Xue, who came with him, moved the stool for Gu Xin, and another recorder took a pen and paper to record.
"Yesterday was the government's holiday, and Lord Wang brought his family to Hongyuan Temple to eat vegetarian food. In the past few months, the child who guards the city has stayed obediently with Princess Xinxin and General Lu. Lord Wang is very pleased, so he plans to pray for blessings and fulfill his vows. I remember that at noon yesterday morning, their family of five set off. There were two carriages, two coachmen, a servant, a long-term attendant, three maids, two women, and a wet nurse. A total of fifteen people." Lord Xu started talking about the last time he saw Lord Wang.
"Under normal circumstances, if a family is not in a hurry to get to Hongyuan Temple from the city, it takes about an hour and a half." Lord Xu said again.
"Master Xu is right. Master Wang and his party arrived at the temple at the end of the Si hour yesterday. I was the one who received them." The abbot said.
"And then?" Gu Xin asked.
"Princess, in the past, when Old Lady Wang brought Madam Wang, Young Lady Wang and the young master to the temple, they almost always stayed in this courtyard, so I brought them here. After making arrangements, I made an appointment with Lord Wang to play chess in the afternoon and left. The three meals in the temple are eaten in the big canteen, and pilgrims can also send people to the big canteen to get food. I asked today, and Lord Wang and his friends sent people to get lunch yesterday at noon. Lord Wang came to my meditation room at noon to play chess with me. During the period, Lord Wang told me about what happened to Master Wang in the past few months. He was in a very good mood and also talked about his gratitude to Lord Gu, Princess Xinxin and General Lu. Lord Wang said that even if he only became the prefect of Tongzhou in this life, he hoped that Master Wang could have a better future." At this point, the abbot clasped his hands together with a look of compassion, "Amitabha!"
"Alas!" Lord Xu sighed.
This old Wang, how dare he say anything in the temple?
See, it worked, right?
The Bodhisattva has given your son a good future, and you really stopped at the position of Tongzhou prefect.
Lord Xu and Lord Wang have been partners for almost six years. They are superiors and subordinates, but more importantly, they are old friends who appreciate each other.
