Chapter 440

Seeing this, the other members of the Gu family exchanged a few polite words and left.

After they all left, my aunt and Mrs. Xing hurriedly took the Taoist priest to deal with the matter and left in a hurry.

Only then did Qiwuyuan finally calm down.

Du Jingyi took a bottle and put it under Gu Shaoyu's nose for him to sniff. He gradually came to his senses and then said something.

"Madam, this secret medicine is really effective. It can even fool the famous doctors in Jinling City."

Du Jingyi smiled. This was all thanks to her father, Master Du, who liked to hoard a lot of money at home so that he could get the secret medicine from the Western Regions. One type was used for the fifth room of the Duke's Mansion in the past, and another type was used for Gu Shaoyu today.

"General, please stop joking. Now both of us have reasons not to appear in front of everyone. What should we do next?"

Gu Shaoyu stood up and drank a sip of warm water. When he opened his eyes again, he was no longer in the half-dead state he had just been in. He looked like a wolf whose plan had succeeded and was about to attack its prey from behind.

"Have Luo Yuan disguise himself as me and lie here waiting. I'm afraid those people have already noticed your identity and might take some action. He can protect you well. As for me, I will naturally go and dig those things out. Once the imperial edict arrives, I will be able to uproot all the remnants of the previous dynasty in Jinling City."

Du Jingyi didn't react at all after hearing this, but Luo Yuan outside the house had a distressed look on his face. No way, he was left to lie still again?

He felt that this kind of work should be given to Ni Yang. He had rested for so long, and he should be the one to lead the charge!

But before he could say anything, Ni Yang next to him teased him.

"Fulfill the general's orders well. Now is just the appetizer. When the emperor's decree comes, I promise that you will be the first to rush in."

When Ni Yang said this, he didn't even blink. His sincerity moved everyone, including Luo Yuan.

But Luo Yuan forgot one thing at this moment. Ni Yang said it, but how could he control Gu Shaoyu? So it was the same as not saying anything!

Feeling that he had hope for the future, Luo Yuan no longer felt that this job was difficult and even volunteered to go and disguise himself. At the same time, Gu Shaoyu and Ni Yang quietly left the Gu family that night when the moon was dark and the wind was strong, and headed straight for Qingshui Town.

And there, Mu Lianying and others were waiting there long ago. Their eyes were as bright as wild wolves out for food, and everything they saw was glowing with a deep green light.

The next day, a grand ceremony was held at the Gu family cemetery.

Everyone in Qingshui Town had heard about it, and some people even went outside to watch the excitement. Although they couldn't see what was going on inside the cemetery, they could tell just by hearing that there must be a big fight going on.

However, the Gu family did not tell outsiders that the ritual was performed because Gu Shaoyu was ill, but rather they said that they were doing it in advance to show their gratitude to Old Madam Gu. After all, the anniversary of her death was there, and in the past, Marshal Gu and others had also performed rituals that lasted for a month, so outsiders did not think much of it.

With the eldest aunt and Madam Xing in charge, no one in the Gu family said anything. They all hoped that after the ritual was over, Gu Shaoyu would get better and continue to bring honor to the Gu family.

The entire October passed as the Gu family members stayed at home and rarely went out.

On the first day of the winter month, the temperature in Jinling City began to drop significantly. The coolness suddenly made people change from autumn clothes to winter clothes. Then there was a winter rain that made people's hands and feet cold.

At the same time, a piece of news that shook the Seven Real Estate Industry to its core finally reached Jinling City from Sui'an City. As the prefect, Gu Yanguang only learned about the news after Zheng Deli and his men rushed into his government office.

"What are you doing? You dare to barge into the governor's residence? Are you trying to kill yourself?"

The people shouting were the guards in the government office. They had never seen such a scene since they started working here, so naturally they shouted loudly.

But Zheng Deli had a bad temper and lashed the man with a whip, causing his skin to be torn and the man to scream in pain.

"What?"

Then he shouted loudly to the people present.

"The Tiger Soldiers are following the order of His Majesty to search the prefect's office. All of you are detained pending trial. No one is allowed to interfere. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed on the spot!"

"yes!"

The emperor's decree also requires the confiscation of the prefect's government office?

With just one sentence, the guards, who originally had little fighting power, dropped their weapons and armor and squatted on the ground awaiting their fate.

Zheng Deli looked at him with disdain and ran straight to where Gu Yanguang was.

He was taking a rest at noon. When he opened his eyes again, Zheng Deli's sledgehammer was pressing on him, and his face was blue and purple! "Aren't you the deputy general of the Tiger Guards? What are you doing?"

"Master Gu, please come in! Your third brother committed a crime in Sui'an City and has been convicted by the Ministry of Justice for harboring the remnants of the previous dynasty. I think your career as an official has come to an end. Oh no, it should be said that your life has also come to an end. Let's go, go to the prison and go through the formalities. It can be considered that his death is not unjust."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"What! You..."

Gu Yanguan had no idea about this news. He had known for a long time that his third brother had not returned for a long time. He thought that his third brother was going to stay in Sui'an City to build some connections. He didn't expect that he not only failed to build some connections, but also lost his life. Cold sweat soaked his entire back.

Zheng Deli was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and immediately ordered people to tie up Gu Yanguang. So when he was taken away, he was still wearing only a single layer of clothes and was shivering from the cold.

But he also wanted to complain, but with a cloth strip stuffed in his mouth, no one could answer him no matter how hard he tried.

The common people didn't know what was going on. They just watched as a group of people rushed into the prefect's mansion, and then escorted the prisoners away in a mighty procession. Half of the people were left, and they began to search the government offices one after another. The noise was so loud that it made people tremble with fear.

At the same time, the ancestral home of the seventh branch of the Gu family and the command center in the city where Gu Yanxing was located were also investigated. One place was visited by Lord Xing, and the other was visited by the Tiger Guards led by Luo Yuan.

However, Luo Yuan's attack was in vain, while Lord Xing had to fight two people alone. He happened to see Gu Yanxing coming back to visit his father, and he immediately became hostile.

"Where did the news come from? Why didn't I receive it? You want to use these fake things to deceive us? It's just a foolish dream!"

The Seventh Old Master and Gu Yanxing naturally knew that the truth had been revealed, and they might as well run away. Gu Yanxing refused to admit it just to escape from here.

Although he was talking to Lord Xing, he glanced around and saw that there were only twenty or thirty people coming, so he had some ideas in his mind.

Father and son are connected by heart, and the Seventh Old Master naturally knew what his son was going to do, so he helped to cover for him.
