In his previous life, Peng's army defeated the Sand God Kingdom and the Cloud Kingdom, but was then severely damaged by the Lang Kingdom. In the end, he and General Peng arrived with reinforcements and reversed the situation.
The situation was quite tragic at the time; many members of the Peng family died, and only Peng Erlang and Peng Liulang from Pengze survived.
That time it was because Magistrate Hu of Kuncheng County colluded with the enemy of Langge Kingdom, which meant that King Qu was colluding with the enemy to seize the throne.
But in this life, he caused a stir ahead of time, leading the Peng family to discover that Lord Hu was colluding with the enemy, and the emperor to expose Prince Qu. Everything was no longer developing according to the original plan.
That cave might actually have been created by the Kingdom of Lange.
Unfortunately, after searching the entire cave, they found nothing.
Gu Xin said, "Anyway, I just felt that the cave was abnormal. Ever since we saw a figure there when we went to play in the snow last year, I've thought so. Now that Dad has developed Kunzhou very well, the road there leads to Baiyu City, and there are more and more people. It's not as desolate as before, so it definitely can't be a savage."
Xue Qianyu: "General Peng is overseeing this matter, so let's not think too much about it. If something really goes wrong, we can keep an eye on it for a year or two, and things will turn out to be right."
Everyone agreed that Xue Qianyu was right.
If that place really was created by the Lange Kingdom, they would definitely be up to no good. But with several hundred Peng family soldiers guarding that place, they certainly can't do anything bad.
Then, everyone started talking about other things.
It was almost midnight, and they had almost finished eating, so Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu took the two sisters home.
As a result, he was called into the house by someone arranged by Gu Shouxin.
Gu Shouxin was waiting for Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu in the yamen office.
Gu Nian and Gu Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Being in the yamen's office meant they had official business to discuss. Thank goodness!
The two sisters went to the office to say goodbye to Gu Shouxin and then went back to their room to sleep.
Gu Shouxin looked at the two children in front of him. Well, they were his future sons-in-law. They looked respectable, but he just couldn't stand them.
I hate Xue Qianyu the most; that kid is going to marry Nian Nian next year.
These two unfortunate brothers had long been aware that when their future father-in-law glared at them from time to time, they should pretend that he was smiling at them.
Gu Shouxin tossed two documents to them.
The two caught it.
Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Second Uncle, you should have told us before you threw it! Otherwise, we'd think you were going to hit us."
Gu Shouxin rolled his eyes at the two of them: "Take a look, and then tell me your opinions."
The two opened it and began to read it; their expressions gradually turned serious.
Then they swapped and looked at them again.
This is the information that Gu Shouxin's spies brought back today.
Lu Zheng said, "Second Uncle, there's definitely something fishy going on here. The people in Langge must have discovered the people you sent and deliberately let them bring this thing back."
Xue Qianyu nodded: "Three parts true and seven parts false, the mix of truth and falsehood is enough to show that the information brought back is not right."
Gu Shouxin raised an eyebrow: "Is it possible that some of the people around us have already been bribed by Lange Kingdom?"
Lu Zheng: "The Peng family. If there are spies, the most likely ones are hiding among the Peng family's generals. The people around me and Xue Er would never betray us. And the people around Second Uncle were personally chosen by Second Uncle, so there's no doubt about that. But from General Peng to the youngest Peng Balang, the Peng family has many close associates who have been with the Peng family for a long time and are more likely to get certain information."
