Gu Yunchen slowly said, "Now, I have already reported this matter to His Majesty. After all, General Guo's incident caused quite a stir in the government and the country.
When the emperor heard this, he was furious and immediately ordered that this opportunity should be taken to eradicate this killer organization. He also gave me full authority to handle this task.
"Mother, I wonder if you still remember that a few years ago, General Guo Xiao issued a bounty order for a hundred thousand taels of silver!"
After hearing this, Jiang Mianmian's originally lazy expression instantly became energetic. A memory flashed through her mind, making her immediately recall the incident.
Back then, many people praised Guo Qilin, saying he was extremely filial and offered a huge reward for revenge for his father.
At this moment, a shocking thought came to her mind. Jiang Mianmian's eyes widened and she asked in disbelief, "Could it be that General Guo is the one the assassin organization wants to assassinate?"
Gu Yunchen nodded slightly, expressing his agreement: "Well, judging from the current situation, it's probably almost certain!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Mianmian sat up straight as if there were springs under her butt.
[Oh my, that woman is worth a full 100,000 taels of silver!]
Although she has never lacked money, as the saying goes, more money is better. Who would have too much? Especially when faced with the temptation of such a huge amount of wealth.
If it were just some other insignificant matter, perhaps Jiang Mianmian would have gritted her teeth and endured it.
Wu Zhenmin is now a mobile treasure house worth 100,000 taels of silver! That's another matter!
What's more, she is useless. Now such an opportunity is right in front of her. If she lets it go so easily, it would be simply unforgivable!
"However, I was truly careless that day. Why didn't I discover this crucial clue sooner? If I had been more careful, perhaps this huge sum of money would have already fallen into my pocket by now!?"
Alas, alas, alas...
The more Jiang Mianmian thought about it, the more regretful she felt, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
[It's also my fault. I was so scared that day that I only glanced at the female killer from a distance, and then I was frightened by the murderous look she suddenly gave me when she turned around, and I hid aside.]
Therefore, Jiang Mianmian was unable to read the entire plot interpretation about the female killer. That's why she was so upset and secretly complained in her heart:
[Oh, I don't know what the situation is with that female killer? ]
[Well, what if I missed something?]
When Jiang Mianmian thought of this, a light bulb suddenly turned on her head and her eyes lit up instantly.
She couldn't wait to turn her head and look at Gu Yunchen beside her, and asked anxiously, "Son, tell me the truth, do you have any key clues?"
Gu Yunchen looked embarrassed and answered hesitantly, "Uh... a little bit, but it's really not much."
In fact, he suddenly came back to find Jiang Mianmian this time with the idea of trying his luck and seeing if he could get some useful clues from her.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to run back home and chat with Jiang Mianmian for so long.
Hearing this, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but widen her eyes.
[Oh my god! No way! You've all discovered the walking 100,000 taels. Such important silver is dangling right before your eyes, and your eyes are hurting because you don't open them! You idiot, don't care if there are any dates or not, just go for it!]
If you're too embarrassed to go, then just grab her and bring her over to me. I'll go claim the prize, and we'll make a killing together.
Jiang Mianmian looked at Gu Yunchen with disdain and complained:
"And yet you tell me you don't have any leads? You haven't even apprehended the person. Third Brother, tell me, aren't you just useless?"
Gu Yunchen frowned slightly, a hint of embarrassment and helplessness on his face. The corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably. They were playing the long game.
Haha! Look at what your mother said. It's obvious that it's because she didn't get the 100,000 taels of silver. So, you are taking this opportunity to scold your son to vent your anger!
"However, killer organizations like this should be completely eliminated. If they are allowed to continue to live through the New Year, I will live in fear every day."
No way!
Gu Yunchen glanced outside the yard with deep eyes!
However, there was one crucial matter that Gu Yunchen could never reveal to his mother. Not only that, even the two Shen brothers knew nothing about it.
On the surface, Gu Yunchen was merely the leader of the guards who were highly valued by the emperor. However, no one knew that secretly, he was the leader of the emperor's Dragon Shadow Guard.
Speaking of the Dragon Shadow Guard, their origins run deep. It turns out that Gu Yunchen's adoptive father was one of the first Dragon Shadow Guard leaders meticulously and secretly trained by the late emperor. For years, only the emperor knew of the Dragon Shadow Guard's existence.
Just yesterday, Gu Yunchen learned from his elder brother about a series of bizarre and incredible things done by Situ Junwen and his son of Anyang Palace. He was so shocked that he didn't know how to describe it.
He immediately made a decisive move and secretly detained the people who had participated in the theft of Le An that day. He also quickly sent people to investigate secretly. In his opinion, it would not be long before there would be a result!
Situ Junwen and his son were so bold that they even extended their evil hands to their Marquis' Mansion. In this case, don't blame him for being cruel and ruthless. He must make the Anyang Palace pay with their lives for his foolish idea.
