The night watchman was not tall. When he opened his mouth to scream, Gu Xinglang held his head down with his hand. The night watchman opened his mouth wide but could not make a sound.
Gu Xinglang pressed the night watchman's head. In his eyes, the night watchman looked like a figure. The night watchman stopped talking, and Gu Shao's headache was relieved a lot. The strength in his hands also gradually weakened.
After the force that was restraining the night watchman was relieved, he managed to speak: "You, what do you want to do?"
Hearing the night watchman's words, Gu Xinglang suddenly increased the strength in his hands.
The night watchman fell to the ground, his legs almost bent on his back, his leg bones completely broken. He fainted at Gu Xinglang's feet before he could even scream.
Gu Xinglang looked at the night watchman, put his foot on the night watchman's neck, and wanted to step on him, but he hesitated. After struggling for a while, Gu Xinglang pulled the reins, jumped on the horse, whipped the horse and left the alley.
Young Master Fenglin stood under a shadowy eaves, watching Gu Xinglang riding past him on horseback, and then he walked into the alley.
The night watchman fell to the ground unconscious, his broken bones piercing his skin, revealing two white leg bones sticking out of his body.
Young Master Fenglin walked up to the night watchman, half squatted down, and checked his breathing. He found that the man was still alive. Young Master Fenglin exclaimed "Huh" in surprise. Gu Xinglang actually knew to show mercy.
At this time, footsteps were heard from far away inside the door.
Young Master Fenglin swung his palm at the gong on the ground, breaking it into pieces, then picked up the night watchman and walked out of the alley.
A servant of the Gu family opened the back door and looked out.
The alley was quiet, the moonlight poured down on the ground, and a black cat ran out from the wall opposite the door and ran out of the alley.
Master Fenglin placed the night watchman in front of a clinic and knocked on the closed door.
The little medicine boy on duty at the clinic opened the door yawning. He was startled when he saw the night watchman lying in front of the door, and hurriedly rushed into the clinic to call for his master.
The doctor came out of the clinic, put on his clothes, looked at the night watchman, and ordered people to carry the night watchman into the clinic.
The little medicine boy found a silver ingot on the ground, picked it up and handed it to the doctor.
The doctor held the silver ingot in his hand and looked at the beginning and end of the street. There was no one on the street late at night.
"Master?" The little medicine boy looked up at the doctor.
"Come in," the doctor turned around and said. The person who brought the patient in left the medical fee, so they would save the patient. As for what happened in the meantime and whether to report to the police, they would have to wait until the patient woke up.
In the Gu Mansion, the old lady drank some tranquilizing medicine and fell into a deep sleep.
Mrs. Sun sat by, watching with a worried look on her face.
A woman in charge whispered, "Madam, the body is still in the yard."
Madam Sun shook her head and said, "Let's wait until the second young master comes back."
As they were talking, the maid's voice rang out from outside the house: "Second Young Master."
"Second brother is back?" Madam Sun said hurriedly, "Come in quickly."
Gu Xingyan pushed the door open and walked into the room. He stood in front of the bed and looked at the old lady. He asked Madam Sun, "Grandmother?"
Madam Sun said to the maids and servants in the room, "All of you leave."
The maids and old women hurriedly retreated and stood far away from the bedroom.
Mrs. Sun said, "The doctor prescribed a decoction for grandma to calm her nerves."
"Is that so?" Gu Xingyan sat opposite Mrs. Sun.
Mrs. Sun said, "Second brother, you have passed the night."
Gu Xingyan said: "It's not the first day that sister-in-law has known me. This is how I do things. I am not willing to do trivial things."
"Grandmother, you have to give an explanation here," said Mrs. Sun.
Gu Xingyan said: "I will tell my grandfather about her."
Mrs. Sun sighed.
"I didn't think my grandmother was confused before," Gu Xingyan said, "The older she got, the more she leaned towards the Ruan family."
Madam Sun said, "The Ruan family has always had contact with grandma. Grandfather and you have been in Wangxiangguan for many years. Grandma is used to visiting the Ruan family. You can't blame her for this."
Gu Xingyan was speechless.
Madam Sun said, "What use do you have for the body of the wet nurse from the Ruan family?"
"I will have someone send this woman's head to the Ruan family," Gu Xingyan said, "I want to ask the Ruan family, whose influence did the Ruan family's servant rely on to make trouble in my Gu family?"
Madam Sun said worriedly, "Will our two families become enemies if this happens?"
Gu Xingyan said: "Let's make an enemy. Why should I be afraid of him with the surname Ruan?"
Madam Sun advised quietly, "Second brother, I think we should keep the body of this woman for now, and when your eldest brother comes back, you brothers can discuss it. What do you think?"
Gu Xingyan said, "Okay, I'll listen to my sister-in-law." This matter fell on Gu Xingnuo's head, saving him the trouble.
Mrs. Sun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's seal this courtyard first," Gu Xingyan said, "Leave the maids that Grandma is used to serving here, and others should not come to disturb Grandma."
Madam Sun nodded. This was the only way now. If the old man made trouble again, the younger generation of the Gu family would lose face, wouldn't they?
"Then I'll be leaving," Gu Xingyan stood up and was about to leave.
Madam Sun hurriedly asked, "Second brother, grandfather and your eldest brother haven't come back yet, how can you just decide to move out?"
"How big of a deal can this be?" Gu Xingyan didn't think that splitting up the family was a big deal at all, and said, "I'll tell people. I want to take Lin and my son to Wangxiangguan. My family will never live apart again. How can it bother anyone?"
When Mrs. Sun heard Gu Xingyan say that he was going to take Mrs. Lin and Gu Xu to Wangxiangguan, she felt envious.
"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law. I'm leaving first," Gu Xingyan clasped his fist towards Mrs. Sun.
In the residence of the Imperial Consort, Yu Xiaoxiao fed General Gu half a cup of water.
From not being able to swallow on his own before to being able to swallow water after it enters his mouth now, Yu Xiaoxiao feels that her father's condition is really getting better day by day.
"Dad," Yu Xiaoxiao said to General Gu while sitting in front of the bed, "If you wake up, Xiao Gu, and my big brother and second brother will be so happy."
Gu Xinglang walked quickly to the door, ignored the mute prisoner who saluted him, pushed the door open and entered the room.
Yu Xiaoxiao turned her head, then stood up and asked Gu Xinglang, "Are you injured?"
There were large patches of blood on Gu Xinglang's face, but his eyes were no longer bleeding and he could see clearly in black and white.
Yu Xiaoxiao flashed in front of Gu Xinglang and reached out to touch Gu Xinglang's face.
Gu Xinglang reached out and held Yu Xiaoxiao in his arms.
Yu Xiao: "Didn't you go home? You didn't go home, but went to fight with someone?"
Gu Xinglang said: "Xiaoxiao."
Yu Xiao: "I'm here, tell me, what happened?"
Gu Xinglang said: "Xiao Xiao, am I a medicine man?"
