Chen Xi took Yun Liu to the back hall of the Governor's Office, and saw a woman in a black cloak walking in from outside the door, Pingting bowed, looking very sensible. When she took off her hood, she showed her beauty. It was Gao Ning, who had falsely accused Chen Xi of possession of her before.

Chen Xi came to the middle seat and sat down. He picked up the teacup on the coffee table in front of him, took a sip, and teased: "Madam Gao? What a rare guest. Haven't you stepped into the gate of hell? Is this official dazzled and still see dead people?"

At this time, Gao Ning was exhausted and obviously chasing her all the way. As for why she appeared in the Governor's Mansion today, Chen Xi could guess her purpose.

Gao Ning looked calm and saluted again: "Mr. Shen laughed!"

Yun Liu shouted sternly: "Yanxiao? What you are in front of you is the current Zuodu Censor and Minister of War, the governor of Huguang and Jiangxi provinces, and the troops of the five southwest provinces. Why don't you knelt down to the adults?"

Faced with Yun Liu's questioning, Gao Ning responded indifferently: "The little woman has died once. This red tape in the world is really important to me? Lord Shen, you should know the purpose of the little woman coming here, right?"

Yunliu looked at Chen Xi, and she was also wondering why Gao Ning came to the Governor's Office to meet him. Chen Xi seemed to have expected it and asked: "Do you want this official to write a letter to Gao Ji, the governor of Nanning? Please let Your Majesty open a message to him?"

“That’s exactly that!”

Gao Ning looked very calm, with a sad expression on his face, "The adults have achieved success and fame, and no one can shake it in the court, and this is even more so after the new emperor ascended the throne. If the adults are willing to write a letter to their family, who in the court will not praise the adults for their magnanimity? Praise your generous mind and noble character without grudges?"

Chen Xi was very serious before. After hearing this, he couldn't help laughing out loud and asked: "So do you think that I will slap myself and plead for Gao Ji?"

"Have you ever thought about what the people in the court would think if I pleaded with you? Don't they think that I am guilty of being a thief? Do you think I will do such meaningless things?"

"I understand that Gao Ji is actually very innocent, because the initiator is not him, but Mrs. Gao... It is because you are narrow-minded and ignore the laws of the court in order to make a sigh of relief and frame me for arbitrarily. Now I still want my official to help the Gao family. Are you brave enough to be brave?"

"Besides, Mrs. Gao, you are already dead in your official registration. If I want to kill you, who knows that it is my official doing it?"

Gao Ning smiled miserably and said, "If you want to vent your hatred in your heart, just kill the little woman. The little woman can bow her head to death. But as the adult said, the Gao family was implicated by the little woman, and the little woman had no face to face it. This is to exchange his own life for the life of the whole family of the Gao family!"

The back hall was silent.

Chen Xi looked at Gao Ning coldly and kept silent. Gao Ning bravely looked at Chen Xi, not talking. As for Yun Liu, he stood beside him and did not dare to interrupt.

At this time, Yun Liu finally figured out one thing that Chen Xi said before could save the Gao family was himself.

Because even if Gao Ji committed bribery in the local area, he would not be punished until he died. At most, he would be dismissed from office and investigated. He could be converted to a demotion of officials and the people by spending a little money to deal with it. However, Gao Ji falsely accused the Minister of War Chen Xi, the Minister of War who led the army before the war. This crime was almost the same as the foreign barbarians. If the court wanted to investigate, the least it would be a crime of exile and confiscating the house, and it was more likely to be a serious crime of exile and extorting the nine clans.

As long as Chen Xi wrote a letter to plead for Gao Ji, it means that Gao Ji's false accusation did not affect the battle against Jiaozhi, which shows that Gao Ji had no desire to be in harmony with the Yi, and Gao Ji and the Gao family were able to be safe.

In addition, even if the brothers of foreign relatives Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling talk to Gao Ji, it would be useless, because the ones who really hold the central power now are the cabinet chief Liu Jian and the second assistant Li Dongyang, who will not be influenced by the national uncle to destroy the laws of the court.

For false accusations, only those who are false accused have the right to plead for mercy!

Gao Ning said in a proud and tough tone: "Mr. Shen, do you really want to die and refuse to save me? Even if you hate me, you still hate the little woman. Do you know that the Gao family was harmed by the little woman, why do you still make things difficult for them?"

Chen Xi took a sip of tea and said, "Mrs. Gao asked this well. Why is it? Even I can't answer. I have to ask you why you have to frame me!"

"Maybe you hate me to beat you, but after all, you made mistakes first. Now I don't care about these things with you, or even kill you, it's already considered a net-up..."

Yun Liu could no longer listen and asked for instructions: "Sir, should you expel this woman from the Governor's Office? Or would you just hand her over to the court and give her to the decision of the department?"

Gao Ning exclaimed at Yun Liu, who was wearing men's clothing: "Who are you? Even Lord Shen hasn't decided, so you dare to make a big mistake here. How many brains do you think you have?"

After saying that, she looked at Chen Xi, her expression was a little avoided, and her tone turned softer, "Sir, I wonder if I can say something to you alone?"

Chen Xi looked at Gao Ning and said, "It's okay to say anything to others. If Mrs. Gao has anything to say, just say it!"

Gao Ning looked at Chen Xi, then Yun Liu, with a strange look on his eyebrows and said, "Since you don't want your subordinates to avoid it, I think you are afraid that the little woman will assassinate you... But the little woman really doesn't have the courage. If you don't believe it, you can verify it on the spot!"

As he said that, Gao Ning untied his belt, took off his cloak first, and then opened his coat. The coat naturally scattered on the ground, revealing the white single clothes she was wearing inside.

Unfortunately, this single dress wrapped her body tightly, and except for showing her graceful figure, there was nothing to leak.

Chen Xi looked at Gao Ning, squinted his eyes, and said nothing.

Gao Ning looked at Yun Liu again. At this time, Yun Liu's eyes did not avoid any attention. On the contrary, she was carefully observing whether Gao Ning had weapons hidden on her body to guard against Gao Ning's assassination.

At this point, Gao Ning finally understood that Chen Xi would definitely not let Yun Liu go out, so he said to Chen Xi: "Mr. Shen, the little woman understands your hatred for the little woman and the hatred for the Gao family. The little woman knows that she cannot atone for the sins. If you are willing to ask for the Gao family, the little woman is willing to be a slave and a servant, serve Lord Shen, and redeem the crime of false accusing the Lord before!"

When Gao Ning said this, she lowered her head and slowly knelt down in front of Shen Xi, even bent her body and pressed her head to the ground. At this moment, she could no longer see the arrogance and reluctance she had before in her expression.

Yun Liu scolded: "You still want to be forgiven by the Lord at this time, isn't you too delusional?"

Gao Ning said, "I came to Lord Shen and never thought of leaving safely. Either Lord Shen can forgive my Gao family and let my husband and children be safe and sound, or I will die here to calm my anger in exchange for the adults' forgiveness. I can say something for my Gao family."

"As for what other punishments can make you let go of your hatred for someone like me who is full of sin, I can contribute to you..."

After saying this, Gao Ning put his head on the ground and did not move. She was very sincere in pleading for the Gao family. She also understood that the only person who could save the Gao family now was Chen Xi, and the rest could not speak for the Gao family. Even if they said it, it would be futile.

Even Chen Xi cannot completely exempt Gao Ji and the Gao family from being punished, but at least the entire Gao family can leave a life, so as not to collapse and become a laughing stock for the people of the world.

At this time, Yunliu was also looking at Chenxi, wanting to know what decision Chenxi made.

"grown ups!"

Yun Liu knelt on one knee and made a request for instructions.

Chen Xi stood up, without answering anything, walked directly to the door of the back hall, and ordered: "First settle this sinful woman in the city's house, send someone to take care of her, and then I will deal with it!"

Yun Liu bowed: "Yes, sir!"

Chen Xi left the back hall with an ambiguous attitude. Yun Liu went up to help Gao Ning up, but Gao Ning stood up on his own and stared at Yun Liu and said, "Now sir, let you settle me. If you dare to be rude to me, I will not let you go even if I die!"

Yun Liu said disdainfully: "Where did you get the confidence? You dare to come to the front of the adults to shout? Even if you kill you, it is not an exaggeration... If you dare to make ill intentions, I don't need the adults' instructions, and I will kill you now!"

"If you have the ability, you can try it!"
