Chapter 430 Luo Yuan appears
But only a little.
It was just that because of his age, if he really kept arguing with a junior, it would be really unmannerly, so he calmed his face and said casually.
"I am old and useless. The world will still belong to you young people in the future."
After saying this, he left without looking back. Looking at his back, Gu Shaoyu took a lot of effort to calm down.
He could still bear it when they didn't meet, but when they met, the hatred in his heart could not be suppressed. Du Jingyi patted him on the back and spoke softly to comfort him.
"Sooner or later, they will have to pay the price. General, don't be too sad."
Gu Shaoyu didn't say anything, but just looked back at Du Jingyi. Many words were lost in the warmth of his hands holding each other.
The whole month of September felt like the calm before a storm.
Some are ready to go, some are completely unaware, and in this eventful time, the only one who is still happy is probably Luo Yuan.
Because he finally got a mission, he was now disguised as someone else and was responsible for keeping an eye on the Tong family.
Du Jingyi did not trust the Tong family. This was the conclusion she came to after she transformed herself into Yan Zhiqing and talked to the other party in person. If she had to hide their plans from outsiders, she would have kicked the Tong family out of this chess game.
The Su family certainly has this kind of relationship with them, so they won't do anything reckless, but the Su family's business tactics are decent and presentable, unlike the Tong family, which are all insidious.
Therefore, Du Jingyi still needs to be on guard. Don't let the situation happen that they are charging in the front but are disrupted by the Tong family in the rear. That would be really infuriating.
Therefore, when assigning this task, Du Jingyi was extremely serious.
Luo Yuan was very grateful for being able to shoulder such a heavy responsibility, so even if he was only doing the most basic surveillance duties, he completed them meticulously and seriously.
Du Jingyi's intuition, combined with Luo Yuan's meticulous investigation, really allowed them to find the Tong family's weak spot. They were actually secretly investigating Yan Zhiqing's identity, and it was vaguely connected to Sui'an City.
However, they did not think that Yan Zhiqing would be Du Jingyi, but thought that Yan Zhiqing was someone from the Eastern Palace.
Tong’s study.
At this moment, Luo Yuan was slowing down his breathing and acting like a gentleman on the beam, listening to everything the Tong family father and son said.
"This Yan Zhiqing has been stuck in the East Palace just after it took action against the Seventh House. Now he is here to stab us. Could it be that he is actually a member of the East Palace, but was planted in Jinling City a few years ago? Otherwise, how can we explain why his background is so difficult to investigate?"
Tong Jiajilang has some brains, but not much.
After much guessing, he only guessed part of it, and it was the head of the Tong family who had other ideas.
"Not necessarily. I always feel that Yan Zhiqing's scent of powder is too strong. How can such a boy with powdered hair and greasy face be in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Maybe, maybe he has another identity!"
Luo Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at the gloomy face of the head of the Tong family in the dark. He was a little impressed. But it was no wonder. Anyone who could make a name for himself in Jinling City would not be a weakling.
However, the identity of their general's wife cannot be exposed at this time, otherwise it will cause some trouble and affect the general's overall situation.
So, when the father and son were still guessing about Yan Zhiqing in the study, he couldn't help but use the same old trick again and quietly put drugs in their tea.
This medicine was specially formulated by their military doctor. It can even knock down the most powerful warhorse of the Jin Dynasty, let alone the father and son of the Tong family.
So he left in a very light manner, but the two people from the Tong family had no mood to think about anything else. They could only lie on the bed and stench.
In the evening, when Du Jingyi listened to Luo Yuan's report, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Although Vice General Luo's words were a bit excessive, it is still a good way to disrupt their formation. Thank you very much."
"Madam, you are too polite. These tricks are just the beginning. When we fought against the Jin Dynasty in Cezhou, it was so refreshing. If it weren't for Madam's instructions, Luo Yuan would have killed them immediately and made sure no one could find out what happened."
Luo Yuan's way of solving the problem is somewhat bloody.
After all, the battlefield he has always faced is a life-or-death situation, so it is safest to kill someone who may be able to discover his secret.
Du Jingyi's business was full of deceptive tactics, and she never denied that she was capable of calculations, but compared to Luo Yuan who took two lives with a single blow, Du Jingyi felt that the Tong family father and son did not deserve the death penalty.
Therefore, I still cannot agree with Luo Yuan's approach on this point.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But she is not an ignorant person, so they just have different positions and live in different worlds, which does not mean that one is absolutely right and the other is absolutely wrong.
"Thank you for your hard work, Vice General Luo. In a few days, there should be news from Sui'an City. Even if the Tong family finds out something, they won't dare to investigate further after seeing what happened to the Seventh Branch. So, we can leave this matter alone for now."
Then, Du Jingyi said with a serious expression.
"My grandfather and uncles' bones are still in the altar. When we break the altar and invite their spirits back, I think it would be better to use red silk embroidered with swastikas. However, it is inconvenient for me to go out now, so I would like to trouble Deputy General Luo to go to Linggui Temple and ask the abbot to help bless them."
According to the rules of the Daxing Dynasty, those who were buried after death had to use red silk with swastika patterns as their inner garments. Now, Marshal Gu and others have long been reduced to skeletons, so it is impossible to wear them, but it is reasonable to wrap them in red silk.
So Luo Yuan felt obligated to take on the job of errand boy and said frankly.
"Don't worry, ma'am. I will definitely get it done."
Du Jingyi had no problem with Luo Yuan's abilities, but she felt a little guilty that such a capable deputy general always had to do simple errands for her.
Although Luo Yuan had a rough temper, it didn't mean that he couldn't read people's expressions. He quickly noticed the guilt in Du Jingyi's eyes, and immediately understood what was going on. He then explained with a smile.
"My life was saved several times by the generals of the Gu family on the battlefield, so it is my blessing to be able to do something for them within my ability. So Madam, please don't worry about these trivial matters. After you drag down those damned people in the seventh room, you must give me a chance. If I don't stab them three times and six times, it will be difficult to let go of the hatred in my heart!"
He gritted his teeth as he spoke, and Du Jingyi nodded firmly and agreed to it!
