Chapter 542 Great Contribution!
Gu Yuehuai's words were calm, but to Xu Chuangu's ears they sounded like thunder out of the blue.
Xu Chuangu stood up suddenly, his eyes locked on Gu Yuehuai: "What did you say? Can you deal with a sorcerer?"
He found that he had completely misjudged his niece-in-law. He thought she was like Ji Qing, with a straightforward personality, brave and courageous, daring to love and hate, and good medical skills. She was already very outstanding. Now it seems that he still underestimated her.
Decades ago, sorcerers were rampant in the capital. Ordinary people might not have realized it, but they were deeply affected by it.
Later, local Feng Shui masters like Ji Qing emerged like mushrooms after a rain, and stood on equal footing with the sorcerers. Later, as the country had taken root, the authorities joined forces to expel these "strange people and things", defining them as feudal dregs.
This is also the reason why Ji Qing never used Feng Shui again, and these people completely disappeared.
If it weren't for the incident with "Shi Wanting" last night, which made him revisit his memories of these treacherous people, he would not have associated the Qin authorities' serious illness with the sorcerer and become alert.
Moreover, "Shi Wanting" had an accident last night, and Shi Jinsong brought his daughter to Beijing early this morning. It was unusual no matter how you looked at it.
Maybe it is true as Yan Shaoyu said, the death and resurrection of "Shi Wanting" were just the tricks of the sorcerer. If we can follow the clues, we may be able to find the person behind it. The chaos of sorcery that year must never happen again.
Now the country has a lot of work to do and it is time to recuperate. Although Yan Shouzhi and Ji Qing, who have dedicated themselves to the people and the country, have fallen, he is still here. It would not be good for them to see a country in ruins when they come out, right?
Therefore, he must stop the sorcerer from causing chaos and restore peace to the world and the country!
However, the methods of the sorcerer are treacherous and his ability to hide is far beyond that of ordinary people. When encountering such a person, ordinary people can only watch and sigh in despair. Now that he suddenly heard that Gu Yuehuai could deal with him, the excitement in his heart is self-evident.
Gu Yuehuai said calmly, "Uncle Xu, I can indeed deal with the sorcerer, but I'm sorry, I can't tell you the specific method. However, Shao Yu knows about this matter. With me here, the success rate of completing the mission will be higher."
"What's more, I am a military doctor. If I leave the army and go to the capital to treat patients for the Qin authorities, wouldn't that be more legitimate?"
She said it very naturally and had no intention of going there secretly. If she could succeed this time, it would be a great achievement!
Yan Shaoyu frowned and looked at Gu Yuehuai with a look full of disapproval.
He didn't want her to be involved in the disputes in the capital. What's more, the methods of the sorcerer were invisible and intangible. If it involved the Qin authorities, the people behind it must be difficult to deal with. What if she was affected by the healing power and there was no way to solve it?
The troubles in the capital had nothing to do with her, and he didn't want her to have no peace of mind after marrying her.
Xu Chuangu was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay! I'll leave this mission to you."
After saying that, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "In fact, there is another reason for letting you carry out this mission. The serious illness of the Qin faction authorities is of great importance. Once he dies, the situation in the capital will undergo a huge change. At that time, the Jiang faction will be the only one in power. It will become even more difficult to rescue your parents. Do you understand?"
Although he maintained a neutral stance, to be honest, he was relatively closer to the Qin faction. The Qin faction authorities were their comrades-in-arms who had fought together with them in the past. For both public and private reasons, he did not want anything to happen to him.
The Jiang faction is ruthless and will stop at nothing to achieve its goals. If the Qin faction fails, the Jiang faction will surely take advantage of the situation and the common people will suffer. Being in the situation, they still want to push the outcome to the best of their ability.
And just as he said, the arrest and imprisonment of Yan Shouzhi and his wife was a conspiracy of the Jiang faction from beginning to end. Ji Ran was just an important chess piece in it, and the real decision was made by the Jiang faction.
Whether for the sake of Yan Shouzhi and his wife or for the sake of the common people, the Qin authorities cannot allow anything to go wrong.
Yan Shaoyu's expression was slightly restrained, and after a long while, he said, "Uncle Xu, don't worry."
Gu Yuehuai breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she would be able to go to the capital with her companions.
It’s not that she is a rebellious person, but the sorcerer is indeed difficult to deal with.
Even though Yan Shaoyu is capable, he has no means to deal with the sorcerer, unless he resorts to assassination. However, if the Jiang family values him so much, how could the sorcerer have no one to protect him?
Her healing power is the nemesis of sorcerers. If the Qin faction's serious illness is really caused by a sorcerer, then this operation may win the Qin faction's favor, which is of great benefit to the Yan family.
Besides, if she remembered correctly, "Shi Wanting" was also in Beijing now. How could she miss it if she was given a pillow when she was sleepy?
The three of them discussed the details of the mission, how many people to bring, how to act, how to investigate, etc. It was not until the night deepened that Gu Yuehuai and Yan Shaoyu left Xu Chuangu's residence and headed towards the staff quarters.
Along the way, Yan Shaoyu remained silent, as if he was sulking, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Gu Yuehuai sighed softly, took his arm, and leaned her head on his shoulder. She deliberately lowered her voice and said with a hint of coquettishness: "Are you still angry? When did you become so petty?"
Yan Shaoyu subconsciously put his arm around her shoulders, and after hearing what she said, he said with a stern face, "Don't you know fear?"
Gu Yuehuai curled his lips: "Of course I know! But this doesn't stop me from following you. Didn't we agree to advance and retreat together? You want to go to the capital and leave me behind? Besides, do you really have the confidence to deal with the sorcerer without me?"
As she spoke the last part, her voice couldn't help but carry a hint of resentment, and she couldn't help but glare at Yan Shaoyu.
She was sure that if Xu Chuangu gave him the task in private, he would definitely act first and report later.
Yan Shaoyu pursed his lips and said nothing. As long as one is a human being, he will definitely have weaknesses, and he has the patience to find these weaknesses.
Besides, he planned to investigate thoroughly first and then encircle and assassinate him. No matter how powerful the sorcerer is, he is just a mortal. He would be afraid of sharp knives and guns, right?
However, seeing Gu Yuehuai's angry expression, he swallowed all his words and did not add fuel to the fire at this critical juncture.
Gu Yuehuai raised his eyes and looked ahead, his eyes were a little cold: "In fact, I am not only worried about you. You know, 'Shi Wanting' is in Beijing, I must go and see her. If she has time to deal with my father and my brother, it will be too late to regret it."
Yan Shaoyu looked at her cold and calm face, and couldn't help but tighten his arms around her shoulders.
He said in a deep voice: "Shi Wanting's matter really cannot be delayed, so let's handle it together when we go to the capital this time."
Gu Yuehuai nodded, and the two returned to the staff quarters. They had originally planned to go to bed early and wait for news from Xu Chuangu tomorrow. However, as soon as they returned to the dormitory door, they saw a woman with long braids pacing at the door, looking around.
