Chapter 438 Ancestral Grave Map

This was a piece of paper this big that someone had carried on his back, and on it was a picture of the Gu family's ancestral tomb. Du Jingyi didn't understand why so many marks were made with a red pen, so he looked confused.

Then Gu Shaoyu said something shocking.

"These red dots are the things that the Seventh House left for the previous prince. They are weapons, money, and food."

Hearing this, Du Jingyi's eyes were full of disbelief.

Marshal Gu worked hard for the Daxing Dynasty all his life. Not only did his children and grandchildren die, but he couldn't even rest in peace after his death as he was taken away for some kind of ghost sacrifice.

Now even the underground of the Gu family’s century-old ancestral tomb is being used by the seventh branch in this way, which is simply creepy.

"So the general has taken advantage of the training with the navy camp these days to find out everything about the ancestral tomb?"

"Yes, it's the prince of the previous dynasty. His whereabouts are unknown for the time being, so I think the person who set fire to the Su family and forced Yan Zhiqing's identity to be revealed is probably someone from the prince's party of the previous dynasty."

"The crown prince of the previous dynasty? How old must he be now to still have this ability?"

The Daxing Dynasty has been in existence for more than forty years. Even if he was born when the country was destroyed and his family was ruined, he would be more than forty years old. However, it is not easy for a baby in swaddling clothes to escape and survive.

Therefore, Du Jingyi had reason to suspect that someone was pretending to be a princeling of the previous dynasty and was deliberately trying to stir up trouble again.

But before she could even express her idea, Gu Shaoyu rejected it.

"There is no doubt that although the remnants of the previous dynasty were almost wiped out, the Emperor Kaizong actually had a trick up his sleeve. He pretended to be soft-hearted and did not really kill them all, so he cooperated with my grandfather and let a newborn baby go at that time."

"Is the purpose to let those remnants of the previous dynasty who are hiding deeper in the dark come out from the darkness through this hope, unite as one, and then wipe them out all at once?"

Du Jingyi made a bold guess, and then got Gu Shaoyu's confirmation.

Only then did Du Jingyi understand what it meant to be an emperor with a heart that draws blood.

"It's a pity that neither the Emperor Kaizong nor my grandfather had anticipated this. They passed away one after another before the little prince grew up. My uncle should have known about these things, but they also followed my grandfather. So this matter was delayed until now. I only learned a little from the spies left by my grandfather."

Now, Gu Shaoyu finally understood why his grandfather had planted so many secret agents in Jinling City, and each of them was extremely difficult to dig out. This was the purpose. If he didn't have the list given by his grandmother, he would not have been able to find these people.

Du Jingyi also sighed secretly. The plans of the founding emperor and her grandfather were too big. To be honest, she was frightened when she heard these things.

After adjusting his mentality, Du Jingyi asked calmly.

"So, General, do you intend to use the incident with the Seventh House as an excuse to take down these places first?"

"Not only that, I want to use the matter of the Gu family's ancestral tomb to implicate the Seventh Branch, so that the people of the Gu family can have a chance to make amends."

When the people of the Seventh House colluded with the prince of the previous dynasty regardless of everything, it was clear that they did not take the thousands of clansmen seriously at all. If they were really implicated, I am afraid that everything that the Gu family had accumulated over hundreds of years would be wiped out in an instant.

Gu Shaoyu couldn't take this risk, so he had to give the Gu family a chance to make amends before the incident in the seventh room became known, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"So, General, do you want to take action first? Are you not waiting for His Majesty's order?"

"Well, let's find a reasonable explanation, let's use the story of my grandmother's dream."

After Du Jingyi knew her husband's intention, she also thought about it in her mind. She felt that although this method was a bit risky, it could indeed provide a way out for the Gu family members, so she nodded in agreement.

"General, just go ahead and do it. I will take good care of everyone in the family and will never let the bad guys take advantage of you!"

Every word she said fell into Gu Shaoyu's heart and was full of power. Gu Shaoyu held her in his arms and spoke.

"I'm sorry to have wronged you."

"General, you are too kind. It's just killing insects. How can I feel wronged? Although I am not as capable as my grandmother, I still have the ability to protect my family. General, don't worry about it. I will make sure that you don't have to worry about the backyard when you are fighting the enemy in front!"

After hearing this, Gu Shaoyu's expression finally brightened up a lot from gloomy.

"Okay, after these things are settled, we will return to Sui'an City."

"Um."

After the couple communicated with each other, they returned to Gu's house together. After resting for two days, Gu Shaoyu suddenly fell ill. The illness was sudden and inexplicable.

I consulted many doctors, but none of them could explain the problem.

Therefore, Du Jingyi had no choice but to invite some Taoist priests to perform rituals, as he heard that they would be helpful in exorcising ghosts.

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

When Madam Xing came to visit the patient, she was annoyed by the chaotic atmosphere in the house, but she knew that Du Jingyi was doing it for Shao Yu's own good, so she didn't say much.

Then I had to bypass this place and go to Qiwuyuan first.

Gu Shaoyu was still lying there pale, weakly in a deep sleep, and could not be awakened no matter how they called him. Du Jingyi was crying sadly beside him, and Madam Xing was also sad.

"You were fine, why did you become so sick?"

"Who knows? He was full of energy two days ago, but now he is bedridden. The old and young in the family need someone to take care of them. If something really happens to the general, how are we going to live?"

After saying this, Du Jingyi started crying again.

Although she had nothing to be sad about, she had used medicine on the handkerchief. Although she couldn't smell it, it was indeed very irritating. Once it was used, her tears kept flowing. Who wouldn't say that it was sincere and heartfelt? Before Mrs. Xing could say anything, she saw the steward hurried in from outside.

"Madam, the relatives of the Gu family are here, and they said they want to visit the general."

The fish is hooked.

Although Du Jingyi was thinking like this in his heart, he kept wiping his tears with the handkerchief in his hand. Suddenly, tears flowed out like a spring, and even his eyes turned red.

So he looked particularly haggard.

"Let's ask them all to come over. Given the general's current condition, we don't know if he will ever wake up. Let's... ask them all to come over and take a look first."

The whole play was performed, and when the relatives headed by Gu Yanguang came in, they could hear the women in the room sobbing quietly. It was a huge scene.

"Hey, what's wrong with Shao Yu? Wasn't he training a few days ago? Is he tired? Or is he injured?"
