Chapter 3 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

the second lady was holding a gold hairpin and gesticulating on her body. Just when she was wondering where to hide it, the door was kicked open with a "bang", and several officials stood at the door. The leader said: "Everyone, take off your jewelry and coats and gather in the front yard!"

  The little girls in the side room immediately started crying. The second lady was also frightened by the sudden movement and dropped the gold hairpin in her hand. on the ground.

  The officer's eyes turned to the golden hairpin, and he shouted, "Come out! Take off your clothes and jewelry!"

  The little girls came out of the ear room crying. Gu Fei pulled the second young lady to the corner and reached out to take them off. Her coat.

  The second lady covered her chest in fear, "No, you can't take it off, there are men here!"

  Gu Fei smiled bitterly, "Second lady, take off your clothes, we can only go to the front yard in our middle clothes."

  After a while, there were more men outside!

  The second young lady quickly figured it out, her face turned pale, she held her clothes and trembled slightly.

  Gu Fei didn't force her. She knew that the second young lady still needed time to mentally build up, so she didn't need to take off her clothes. She was recovering from her injuries. She was originally wearing a white muslin middle coat.

  The second young lady lingered for a while and saw that the girls around her were taking off their clothes. She had no choice but to shyly remove the jewelry on her head and body one by one. Then she gritted her teeth and took off her coat. Fortunately, she kept all the jewelry close to her body.

  Then the officers and soldiers drove everyone to the front yard.

  The huge courtyard was full of people.

  Prince Pingyang Hou was kneeling on the ground wearing only his middle coat and tied with five flowers.

  A group of female relatives huddled together and shivered.

  Gu Fei moved with difficulty and followed the second lady to stand in the crowd.

  Soon, one big box after another was carried out from inside. When several officers and soldiers came carrying a box, the rope suddenly broke, the box tilted to the ground, the lid opened, and golden gold ingots rolled out on the ground. .

  Gu Fei glanced through the gap in the crowd and saw that this box of gold ingots weighed at least a hundred kilograms!

  She blinked, what a pity, there is so much gold. Although gold was not worth much in her previous life, in this world, it is difficult to move without money!

  I want it so much, woo woo woo.

  An official scolded, and several officers and soldiers hurriedly picked up the gold ingots and stuffed them back into the box.

  Everyone stood in the courtyard for who knows how long. At first, there were female relatives crying softly, but later, perhaps because they were numb from crying, they all stood dumbly.

  Until the last box was carried out.

  An official waved his hand and said, "Men and women stand separately! After a while, the men will enter the prison of the Criminal Department, and the female relatives will enter the female prison of the Criminal Department."

  This shout was like a drop of water falling into a frying pan.

  Those who were numb at first, or who still had a glimmer of hope, are now in despair.

  Some cried, some slumped on the ground, some beat their chests, and so on.

  At this time, the six-year-old Pingyang Hou Shuzi ran out of the crowd and ran towards the gate, "I don't want to go to the big prison, I don't want to go to the big prison -"

  Before he finished speaking, an official pulled out his sword and pointed it at the little boy. Waved over.

  The little boy's running posture was frozen instantly, and a line of blood shot out from his neck, accompanied by a sound like a bellows.

  The small body slowly fell down, and the crowd burst out with a heart-rending scream: "Xing'er——"

  The second lady's face turned pale, her whole body was shaking, and she grabbed Gu Fei's arm tightly, Gu Fei patted her hand gently to express comfort.

  "Stop arguing! If you keep arguing, you will be punished!" an official yelled.
