Gu Cixiu specially invited top chefs from Zuixianglou to hold a grand banquet at the Gu residence to welcome Gu Qianluo.
"I have only come back to see my grandmother and father, and I do not intend to stay here permanently. I hope that my father will not reveal that I am still alive."
Upon hearing this, Gu Cixiu did not ask Gu Qianluo in detail about the purpose of her return, but only invited Old Madam Gu.
The informants in Heyuan quickly relayed the news of Gu Qianluo's return to the Gu family mansion to his ears.
Upon learning of this, Gu Zijun immediately abandoned all his social engagements with the powerful and wealthy and rushed over from Heyuan.
After Gu Qianluo returned, the entire Gu residence was filled with warm and joyful laughter.
Gu Qianlu cherishes this sense of happiness from reuniting with her loved ones and the satisfaction of regaining what was lost.
Crown Prince
As soon as Gu Qianxue's spies in the Gu family learned of the news that Gu Qianluo was to be brought back to the capital, they immediately sent a message to the Eastern Palace.
She was even told all the news that Lu Shi had been divorced by Master Gu and that Gu Zichen had been imprisoned by the yamen.
When Gu Qianxue found out, she was extremely anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
"Your Highness, you've only recently finished your postpartum confinement period, so you must remain calm!"
I've heard that the Crown Prince is currently being watched by various forces.
Now that your family has made such a big mistake, you must bear with it and not be the one to stick your neck out!
The people outside are just waiting for you to make a mistake!
"Yes! That's all we can do now."
Gu Qianlu frowned and sighed. Although this maid was not brought from the Gu family, she was very loyal.
Enraged, Gu Qianxue's eyes blazed with fury. She shoved the items on the table to the ground and said angrily.
"Gu Qianluo, I never expected you to still be alive!"
What exactly did Gu Qianlu do to make her father divorce her mother?
And you even got your brother imprisoned! Gu Qianluo, what exactly are you trying to do?
"Please calm down, Your Highness!"
"Go! Keep a close watch on the Gu family's every move for me, the Crown Princess!"
"Yes, ma'am!"
......
Go to Beijing
After having breakfast at the Gu residence, Gu Qianluo drove to General Chu Qiang's residence.
When she arrived in the capital yesterday, she had already made an appointment with General Chu Qiang.
Today we discussed the matter of Lin Ruoyan and Zhang at the General's Mansion.
Gu Qianluo had to discuss the matter between the two of them with Constable Liu before the New Year arrived.
Gu Qianlu rode her horse to the General's Mansion on her own. The guards saw her approaching from afar and quickly stepped forward to stop her and ask what was wrong.
"May I ask who you are looking for, sir?"
"I am Jun Lan, the sect leader of the Hundred Flowers Sect of the Free and Unfettered Sect."
I already informed your general yesterday; please go in and inform him for me.”
"Alright, please wait a moment, Young Master Junlan."
A moment later, General Chu came out of the mansion to greet him with a smile.
"Greetings, General Chu!"
"Long time no see! Sect Master Junlan!"
Welcome, welcome! Please follow me.
Officer Liu had been waiting inside for a long time.
"General Chu, it's been a month since we last met. Your injuries have healed quite well, haven't they?"
"Thanks to you, my injuries have almost fully healed! Please come in."
"That's good. I was worried that the wound on your arm might get worse!"
"Yes! I also consulted the imperial physician about this matter."
He said, "If it weren't for your proper handling, this old man's hand would probably be ruined!"
"General, you are blessed with good fortune!"
"Sect Leader Junlan is too modest!"
As soon as Gu Qianluo entered the main hall of the General's Mansion, she saw a man in official robes sitting quietly in a chair next to the main seat.
Upon seeing her arrival, the man quickly walked forward.
"Greetings, Officer Liu!" Gu Qianlu greeted.
"Officer Liu, this is the young master who provided the evidence to me, Jun Lan, the leader of the Hundred Flowers Sect."
Officer Liu frowned, looked Gu Qianluo up and down, and said in a deep voice,
"Sect Leader Junlan, I have read the letter you gave to the general."
Lin Ruoyan is indeed the young master of Xuanyan Pavilion that we have been looking for.
In addition, the eldest son's wife, Madam Zhang, used her wealth to support hundreds of henchmen, who had committed numerous murders.
In addition, to our knowledge, both Lin Ruoyan and Zhang Shi are connected with Mo Guigu.
"Sect Leader Junlan, rest assured, we will definitely apprehend these two today."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo was overjoyed. "Thank you so much, Officer Liu!"
"It's not hard work! It's our duty!"
"General Chu, please let me know as soon as you have any good news. I will take my leave now!"
Watching Gu Qianluo leave the General's Mansion, Chu Qiang and Constable Liu exchanged a smile and said seriously,
"General Chu, the person we are trying to arrest this time has a wide-ranging connection!"
Putting aside the fact that both of them are from the Marquis's mansion, and that the Marquis's second son is a close friend of the current Crown Prince.
"Wouldn't such actions offend General Chen of the Marquis's residence?"
"The Marquis's family has achieved unparalleled merits for three generations, so it is understandable that Constable Liu would be worried."
How about this, I'll write a letter to Chen Jinheng first to lay the groundwork for him.
After all, I have a teacher-student relationship with him, so even if he has grievances, he probably wouldn't hate me.
Moreover, those two committed such heinous crimes.
They should be punished under the laws of Dai Viet!
"Then I will wait a moment until General Chen sends word before I make the arrest."
Xiaoyao Sect
On the highest peak of Xiaoyao Mountain, on a century-old sycamore tree, a tall figure reclines on the trunk, his arms as a pillow.
Ever since he learned that Gu Qianluo liked to come here to practice martial arts, Chen Jinheng has come up every day to wait for her.
Chen Jinheng spends most of his time resting on that sycamore tree, except for eating and sleeping.
