Chapter 710 Anyone can die, stop making noise
Jiang Yubai wanted to pick up a knife and chop Xu Yu into pieces, but because of the distance, he had to suppress his anger.
Half an hour after receiving Xu Yu's secret letter from Dongzhu, he ordered a general attack the next day against the city gate that had been difficult to capture for a long time.
It was half a month later when Xu Yu received Jiang Yubai's handwritten reply letter full of insults.
The Lingnan army successfully advanced another 300 miles towards Kyoto, and was now facing the imperial city of Kyoto across the river.
When the news came out, people all over the world were shocked again.
Nan Yun and Gui Sheng were even more cautious than before. Looking at Xu Yu who was carefully choosing a box for the hairpin and purse, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief for their own understanding.
Twenty days have passed since we've been in close contact and obeyed orders.
But until now, Gui Sheng still didn't know the origin of the person in front of him.
Gui Sheng didn't even know Xu Yu's name.
But it did not prevent the fear and dread in his heart from deepening day by day.
Every step Xu Yu took was always beyond his expectations.
Compared with Sang Zhixia, dealing with Xu Yu is really difficult.
Thinking of the life that Xu Yu had so easily wiped out, and the blood that was hidden in the dark and unnoticed, Gui Sheng struggled to suppress the trembling in his heart and said respectfully, "As you expected, after Hao Rou's death, Hao Liang's suspicion of Qian An could no longer be suppressed."
"The other companies in the Nanxun Chamber of Commerce sensed something was amiss and began secretly investigating."
"As far as I know, apart from the Gui family, the other families, led by the Yan family, have also transferred away those who had previous dealings with Hao Liang in an attempt to cover up past traces."
"Hao Liang was already panicking, and now news of the Lingnan army's resounding victory has arrived. If Qian An makes another move, it won't be long before the two of them turn on each other."
The smoothness of the matter was completely beyond Gui Sheng's imagination.
The authenticity of the information that the Yan family had passed on to Hao Liang in advance had not been verified by anyone.
In fact, no one would have thought that Yan Jun's confidants of many years were replaced by Xu Yu's men long ago without leaving any trace.
And under Yan Jun's instruction, he went to visit Hao Liang as usual, but what he said was not what Yan Jun originally instructed, and he cleverly changed the content of the message.
As long as the people lurking around Yan Jun don't reveal themselves, this matter will never be discovered.
Hao Rou's sudden and seemingly unexpected death became a thorn in the hearts of Qian An and Hao Liang.
Hao Rou's death was so sudden.
He drowned late at night, and when he was found, he had been in the water for an unknown amount of time.
Qian An and Hao Liang did not delve into the cause of Hao Rou's death. They seemed to have covered it up harmoniously, as if the one who died was really just an insignificant concubine. In fact, the undercurrent between the two had already been stirred up.
Hao Liang suspected that Qian An really wanted to get rid of him, and killed Hao Rou in advance just to silence her.
And what Hao Rou was doing before her death made Qian An wonder whether Hao Liang had other thoughts.
Otherwise, why did Hao Rou start to inquire about Lingnan's movements without any warning, and even sneak into Qian An's study?
Once the seed of doubt is planted, it doesn't take long for it to take root, sprout, and grow into a towering tree.
Gui Sheng felt from the bottom of his heart that this was going incredibly smoothly.
But Xu Yu said, "Too slow."
Gui Sheng's heart skipped a beat.
Xu Yu finally chose a satisfactory box and said calmly, "Go to the Yan family again today and give this to Yan Jun."
Gui Sheng took the light little box from Xu Yu's hands, swallowed his saliva, and whispered, "Besides that, do you have anything else you want me to convey to Yan Jun?"
"Need not."
"Deliver the items. If Yan Jun asks you about your dealings with Sanyou Trading Company, just tell him the truth."
"If he has any further questions, tell him to come see me."
Gui Sheng didn't dare to twitch and quickly nodded and said yes.
After Xu Yu walked away contentedly with the jewelry box in his hand, Gui Sheng quickly said to the people behind him, "Quick, clean up this place."
In order to help Xu Yu find a satisfactory box, Gui Sheng almost had people take out all the usable stock in the warehouse.
But this gentleman has a bad temper. If he comes back and sees the mess, his face will darken slightly, and the people of Guisheng will be scared to death.
Gui Sheng sighed with mixed feelings, and without delay, he hurried to Yan's house.
When Yan Jun learned that Gui Sheng had arrived, his brows furrowed silently.
Unlike Gui Sheng's previous cautiousness, Gui Sheng's recent actions are a bit too frequent?
There must be a reason for the unusual incident.
Yan Jun was silent for a moment, then said solemnly, "Please invite Master Gui to the flower hall. I'll be there soon."
Gui Sheng went to see Yan Jun.
Xu Yu was free and at ease, so he happily went to present the treasure to Sang Zhixia, holding the treasure he had made for many days.
As soon as Xu Yu walked into the yard, he keenly noticed that the atmosphere seemed to be wrong.
Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou stretched their necks as far as they could to look, like long-necked geese. They were so focused that they didn't even notice Xu Yu coming.
Xu Yu approached and leaned behind Xu Mingyang, then asked softly, "What are you doing?"
"Shh!"
Xu Mingyang quickly made a gesture to keep quiet and whispered, "Brother Chen has brought Miss Tian back. She's not going along and is making a scene!"
Xu Yu: “…”
Why is this happening again?
When these two people were making trouble, couldn't they consciously stay away from Sang Zhixia?
Xu Yu said unhappily, "I've raised you to this size for nothing. What's the point of raising you?"
"Next time you see these two making trouble, just kick them out. Don't let them bother your sister-in-law. Do you understand?"
Xu Mingyang thought to himself, I would like to fight, but unfortunately I can’t beat any of them.
Sang Yanyou shrank his neck and said weakly, "Brother-in-law, it's not that we don't care, it's mainly because..."
"People say that what Brother Chen said is all nonsense. I can only trust my sister..."
Tian Ying'er has a special identity, but she is also a stubborn person.
Chen Jing'an was full of tricks, but Tian Ying'er didn't believe a word he said.
When these two start a fight, it's no exaggeration to say it's a whirlwind. Who dares to stop them?
It’s not like they haven’t been beaten enough.
Xu Yu glanced at the two quail-like boys with disdain, waved his hand and said, "Get lost."
Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou left without hesitation.
When Xu Yu entered, Sang Zhixia was silently holding his forehead and suffering from a headache.
Sang Zhixia really regrets it now.
I regretted that I was so hasty when I accepted the keepsake from my father, so...
Now I have to deal with such a hot girl.
Tian Ying'er and Chen Jing'an were still arguing with each other, and Sang Zhixia blinked at Xu Yu as if asking for help.
Xu Yu coughed, and in the brief lull in the fighting, he said coldly, "Are you guys done yet?"
Chen Jingan glared in anger: "No, you..."
"If you really can't make it through the argument, go out and fight."
Xu Yu stepped aside to make way for the escape, his face expressionless: "Slash the other person's neck, and put an end to it peacefully and quietly."
"It doesn't matter who dies, just stop making noise."
