As soon as the He family arrived in Zhiyi City, Gu Zhenbei was stabbed and poisoned.

Everyone would think that the He family cannot escape responsibility.

Xiao Jingzhou: "Lu Feng led people to arrest the He family. I don't trust him to lead the team, so I ordered Qi Hou to go and support him."

He originally ordered Lu Feng to protect Gu Zhenbei in order to prevent this day from happening.

But the opposite happened.

Lu Feng still failed to protect Gu Zhenbei.

Xiao Jingzhou said: "The death of the Grand Tutor may have been a big blow to him, and now his uncle has been assassinated and poisoned.

I'm worried that he'll be too eager for quick success and fall into the trap of the bad guys. ”

At that time, Jiang Zhenyu had already returned to the villa.

She sat in her study, took out a piece of draft paper, and drew a time chart.

...

...

Jiang Zhenyu thought for a moment, trying to find the murderer by the process of elimination.

"The He family was driven out of the city. Have they counted the number of people?"

Xiao Jingzhou said: "The soldiers guarding the city have counted them, and the numbers and faces match.

Besides, the timing of the assassination and the attack does not match. ”

Not right?

So does this matter have anything to do with the He family?

The two said in unison: "An eye-catching trick!"

Jiang Zhenyu: "This will connect the dots."

“The He family left the city, and General Gu was assassinated.

Before the news reached Minister Qian and his men, it was already known to everyone in the city.

Isn't this just to create chaos in Zhiyi City?

If someone takes advantage of the situation, the trust you have built with the people over the past six months will quickly collapse. ”

Jiang Zhenyu added one more sentence at the end.

“The beneficiaries of this incident are the instigators.

Even if the murderer is caught, he is just an executioner. ”

With this guess, the scope is narrowed.

Xiao Jingzhou said in a deep voice: "This matter is closely related to the capital.

The enemy may also be fanning the flames behind the scenes. ”

Jiang Zhenyu heard his tone, as if he had a plan in mind: "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Jingzhou said: "Take advantage of the situation and lure the enemy into a trap."

The news of Gu Zhenbei's assassination spread like wildfire in Zhiyi City.

The people spontaneously went to the temple, burned incense and prayed for him.

Zhou Shuyun cried every day and burned incense every morning and evening.

Wei Wanru cried with him every day, and Yang Zhonghui had to coax two people at once.

As soon as the seven days were up, white banners began to be hung in the government office.

The entire Gu family wore linen clothes and bought a coffin.

When the people of Zhiyi City heard that Gu Zhenbei had died of poisoning, they all ran to the government office to pay their respects.

All were stopped outside by the soldiers.

The common people could only kowtow to Gu Zhenbei outside the government office.

For a moment, the sky over Zhiyi City was filled with haze.

After receiving the news, Yang Jin and Chen Gan rushed to Zhiyi City without stopping.

Shen Lan couldn't sit still either, so she grabbed Shen Zheng and taught him how to drive a tank in the middle of the night.

As soon as the sun rose, they rode at full speed towards Zhiyi City.

At that time, the He family was also escorted into the city.

When the people saw them, their eyes were as sharp as knives, and they wished they could eat them up.

"Bah! Shame on you!"

"Zhiyi City will give you food and let you leave the city.

You ungrateful bastards, why doesn’t God strike you to death! ”

"Kill them to avenge General Gu!"

The He family was escorted back to the city in disgrace, and the people began to throw things at them.

There is a shortage of food in Zhiyi City, and rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs are luxuries.

The only things thrown at the He family were tree roots, wood blocks, and stones.

All the way to the prison, the He family members were injured.

Lu Feng rushed back to the government office, only to find a white flag hanging high.

His foot slipped, and if Qi Hou hadn't supported him, he would have fallen to the ground.

Lu Feng looked sad: "I feel so sorry for General Gu, and I am speechless in front of His Highness."

Qi Hou didn't expect things to turn out like this.

While he was shocked, he seemed to understand that the gods could not grant everything.

Because of this, he also developed a stronger sense of awe towards the gods.

Qi Hou said in a deep voice: "General Gu doesn't want to see you like this either. Don't you want to see him off for the last time?"

After saying this, Lu Feng stood up straight and walked towards the auditorium with heavy steps.

As soon as Yang Jin and others finished their memorial service, Lu Feng walked in.

When everyone saw his appearance, they felt a little bit uncomfortable.

After Lu Feng paid tribute to Gu Zhenbei, he walked up to Zhou Shuyun.

He knelt in front of Zhou Shuyun and kowtowed.

"Mrs. Gu, it's all my fault that I failed to protect General Gu."

Zhou Shuyun looked confused and almost failed.

After a long while, she said, "It's not your fault. It's all the evildoers' fault."

Gu Yining tilted his head and said, "Daddy is playing a game where he fell asleep. Brother Lu Feng, you must be sad."

No one present believed the child's words.

I just thought that Zhou Shuyun was deceiving the child.

Lu Feng didn't dare to look directly into Gu Yining's eyes, and the guilt on his face became more and more obvious.

The gatekeeper came back to report.

"Lord Zheng has come to offer his condolences and is kneeling outside the mansion, begging Madam to let him see the general off for the last time."

Hearing this, Zhou Shuyun raised her eyes and looked at the person behind the curtain.

When she saw the nodding shadow, she ordered, "Please come in."

Soon, Zheng Shuyu led Zheng Guangzong to the auditorium to pay his respects.

In just a few days, he looked much older, with the hair on both sides of his temples turning gray.

Zheng Shuyu approached the coffin and saw Gu Zhenbei's shiny purple lips, and two lines of tears fell.

He kowtowed three times heavily.

"General Gu, once I find the murderer and bring him to justice, I will go down and pay for your life."

Zheng Guangzong’s height is just enough to let him see Gu Zhenbei.

He widened his eyes and hid in Zheng Shuyu's arms.

Zheng Shuyu patted him on the back and asked him to kowtow to express his condolences as well.

Zheng Guangzong was afraid, but he couldn't resist his father's force, so he could only do as he was told.

Zheng Shuyu was too ashamed to face everyone, so he could only hang his head and walk out holding Zheng Guangzong's hand.

When the two were almost outside the government office, they were surrounded by Lu Chen and a group of people.

"Dad, I'm scared!"

Zheng Shuyu protected Zheng Guangzong behind him and said with a vigilant look: "Lu Chen, I know you have resentment in your heart.

This is all my fault, I shouldn't feel pity.

But my young son is innocent, I hope you can plead with His Highness.

I am willing to sacrifice my life for General Gu. ”

Lu Chen ignored his words and arrested the servant who came to report the news, as well as the Zheng family father and son.

The boy twisted his body.

"It's unfair! I don't know anything, why are you arresting me?"

When Zheng Guangzong and Zheng Shuyu separated.

Zheng Guangzong's big tears rolled down his cheeks.

It seemed as if Lu Chen was the villain who separated the father and son.

"Dad, I'm scared!"

"What are they going to do?"

“Mom said Daddy was suffering and asked me to take care of him.

I just reunited with Daddy and don't want to be separated from you. ”

When Zheng Shuyu heard this, he felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.

When the child was three years old, he was ordered to build a river embankment.

It took three years to build the river embankment, and then four years to be exiled to Zhiyi City. He hadn't seen his own son for seven years.

How can I not make him feel sad?

Zheng Shuyu said in a pleading tone: "Lu Chen, let me be locked up with Guangzong.

Even if both father and son lose their lives, I will accept it. ”

Xiao Jingzhou pushed through the crowd and raised his voice, "What if he wants to kill even your own father?"
