Eight thousand young people who were full of passion and fighting for their country died tragically in such an unclear manner.
As for Luo Rui, it is just a thing of the past.
However, now, because of the incident of souls being taken away, His Majesty Xuanyuan Hao has ordered an investigation into all wars in which the death toll reached 8,000.
Luo Rui thought: If we investigate openly, we won’t find any information about the battle at Labagou, if that can be called a war.
After the death of these 8,000 people, he and Qu Hongfu no longer mentioned the idea of giving more pensions to commend Chen Yun.
Not only that, they also divided these 8,000 people into small groups, 3,500,000 and 1,000 people, and arranged different death times for them, so that they could collect some empty salaries.
Among the 8,000 people who had already died in Labagou, many were recorded to have "lived" for several years.
But He Qing informed Helan Cheng of the one-sided massacre in Labagou, and Helan Cheng told Zhang Baiyi.
Now, Zhang Baiyi has returned to Kyoto. While providing food, accommodation, guidance and gifts for Luo Yunyan, he also reported the border massacre of 8,000 people to Xuanyuan Hao as soon as possible.
As an emperor who grew up on horseback in the army, the strangeness of the battle of Labagou was obvious.
There is no record of this in any war where the death toll was 8,000.
Xuanyuan Hao's pen hesitated several times before finally circling the name of Fuguogong Luo Rui: "Go check!"
Luo Rui decided not to compete with Li Muyun anymore. He had tried both soft and hard tactics, but his wife was not moved by any of them.
The rumors were getting more and more tense, so they had no choice but to obey Li Muyun and quickly sent the "cousin and her son" away. Since she was the cousin, Li Muyun refused to let her go. Qu Hongfu and Lin'er could not take away any of the nominal accounts of the Duke's Mansion, and could only pack up their bags.
Thinking about her final miserable state in the dream, Li Muyun suddenly stepped forward to stop him and asked to see the bag.
If I remember correctly, in the dream, when Qu Hongfu left, she not only divided up more than half of the Duke's Mansion's property, but also took away Luo Rui's private property.
These are all clean incomes, and Qu Hongfu and her son can enjoy them with peace of mind.
Of course, they still have a huge amount of stolen money, and they may not dare to use it until the storm dies down.
But now, Li Muyun wants to keep Luo Rui's lucrative private property. Only when Qu Hongfu and her son are truly broke will she be able to use the stolen money.
Sure enough, when they asked to see the bag, Qu Hongfu refused. Luo Rui also stepped forward to stop Li Muyun and let Qu Hongfu go first.
Luo Rui said, "Don't go too far. It's just a few pieces of clothing and hairpins. Do you have to look through other people's things?"
Li Muyun was just trying to see if the private property in the dream was in the bag. Since they were so nervous, it was probably true.
Knowing that she couldn't defeat Luo Rui, Li Muyun stepped back and said, "Since the Duke has spoken, I won't watch it."
The two were a little surprised to see that she just let it go. After hesitating for a moment, they hurried away. Luo Rui relaxed when he saw Qu Hongfu and Lin'er leave.
He glanced at Li Muyun, turned around and followed them out to see them off. He sent Qu Hongfu and her son onto the carriage and arranged for a guard team to ride on horseback to protect them.
Luo Rui didn't know that Luo Yi had already become Guigu's disciple.
Back then, the strange doctor from Guiguzi had come to see his patient on a whim, Luo Yi, the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, who had a heart disease. However, he accidentally saw Luo Lin stabbing Yi'er and tried to save him, but Yi'er had no intention of living.
He knew his father also wanted him dead.
Luo Rui, the Prince of the Imperial Court, arrived. Without even glancing at Luo Yi, he pulled Luo Lin over and looked him up and down. "Did you get beaten?"
The vicious look on Luo Lin's face had faded, and instead his eyes were red with grievance: "They bullied my mother and hit her in the face..."
The Ghost Valley Doctor looked at Qu Hongfu who came in with Luo Rui, and there was no expression on her face.
Look at Li Muyun again: there was a wound on her forehead that was still bleeding, and the bloodstains were faintly visible through the gauze bandage.
His face was red and swollen from being slapped hard by Luo Rui. The place where the slap mark was was now swollen and had a circle of bruises around it.
There are also some small blisters, some of which have broken, leaving white skin. Is this a burn that has not been treated yet?
So, who is bullying whom?
Moreover, Guigu clearly saw from the window that Luo Lin rushed in from outside and stabbed Yi'er without saying a word.
But at this time, Luo Lin, under the protection of his father, lied shamelessly: "I came to see the bastard...Brother, he begged me to kill him, he wanted to die, he begged me, so I stabbed him."
Luo Yi looked at his mother. If he were alive, he could not protect her and would be a burden to her. His mother always put him first in everything.
If the divorce couldn't take him away, and his father had threatened that he must stay in the Duke's Mansion, his mother would have already left.
He turned to look at his father, the man he had admired since childhood, but his father's eyes were only on Luo Lin. Even if they occasionally glanced at him, there was impatience in his eyes.
He and his mother used to rely on memories and the warmth of the past for support, but in fact, the person in the past has remained in the past forever.
He is not the father he is now.
So what's there to be nostalgic about? He didn't refute Luo Lin's words, as if he agreed.
The Ghost Valley Doctor glanced at Luo Lin and said, "I was just outside that window."
Luo Lin was panicked for a moment, but soon he leaned into his father's arms indifferently.
Sure enough, even after hearing the truth, the Duke of Fuguo just said vaguely: "It's all a misunderstanding." Then he left with Qu Hongfu and Luo Lin.
Whenever Li Muyun encountered something like this in the past, she could not remain calm. She would always chase after Luo Rui, stop him, ask why, cry and break down, and demand justice for herself and her son.
All he got was Luo Rui's annoyed shove and Qu Hongfu's contempt and insults.
She, the wife of a duke, fought for fairness with a concubine kept at home, but couldn't get it. Why couldn't she see through it, let it go, and figure it out before?
If there is any so-called fairness to her and Yi'er, how could there be a "concubine" living in the house openly?
Today she only shouted from behind: "Let's split up the family!"
Guigu was moved by the despair on Luo Yi's face and felt sad. This child had good talent. After everyone left, he asked him: "Once a teacher, always a father. Are you willing to accept me as your teacher and respect me as your father?"
Luo Yi raised his head suddenly.
Since becoming Guigu's disciple, Luo Yi has had some strange uncles and nephews, as well as some fellow disciples of Guigu.
The world seemed to have opened another door for Luo Yi, and his face gradually became more lively.
Among these fellow disciples of Guiguzi was one nicknamed "Phantom Thief".
Not long after Qu Hongfu and Lin'er left the Duke's Mansion, they lost their bag, and all the banknotes, house deeds and land deeds inside were also lost.
When she found out it was lost, Qu Hongfu didn't panic.
