Hearing this, my aunt fell silent.
Yes, didn't her father-in-law, husband and son also work hard for the good life of the people of the world? Now that Gu Shaoyu has continued this responsibility, she should feel fortunate.
However, she couldn't take back the words she had just spoken. The second aunt saw what the eldest sister-in-law was thinking and quickly gave her a way out.
"Sister-in-law is a quick-witted person. Now that you know Shao Yu's true thoughts, you must be regretting it. But you and your wife are the same. You didn't discuss such a big matter with the family, and only told us at the last minute. You still deserve to be beaten!"
After saying that, he pretended to pat the back of Du Jingyi's hand.
There was not even any pain, let alone any mark. When Du Jingyi saw his second aunt coming to help, he immediately stood up and half-knelt down, saying with an apologetic look.
"It's best to keep things secret. We always try not to worry the elders at home, but we forget that a family should walk hand in hand. I apologize to my aunt, my second aunt, and my aunt on behalf of my husband."
Du Jingyi has done so much, so how can the aunt be so unreasonable?
He could only sigh, pull her up and say.
"It's my fault for being hot-tempered. I just said something I shouldn't have said. Since you came into the family, you and your wife have been very filial to the Gu family and to us. I understand that, but there are too many children in the family, and the heart-wrenching pain they experienced in the past is too unforgettable, so I'm worried. But as you said, Shao Yu has his own plans, and we elders may not be able to help him, but we can still not hold him back."
Du Jingyi was already very grateful to the elders for being able to digest so many things and make a statement in such a short time, so he made a firm promise after standing up.
"The secret passage in the house has been repaired. If there is any problem, Mr. Liu will protect you and let you leave through the secret passage. The children are all grown up now, and it's time for them to experience some storms."
Her words silenced the three people on the other side, and they prayed in their hearts that the snow would fall heavier and longer...
The General's Mansion and the Xing family were already on high alert, but most of the other families in Sui'an City were still in the dark.
The wind and snow gradually grew stronger, and there were few pedestrians on the street. Every household stayed indoors. At this moment, as dusk approached, the Dingping Marquis Mansion welcomed Gu Shaoyu who came in the snow.
Compared to Xing Xiang's pretended calmness, Dingping Hou became flustered when he saw Gu Shaoyu.
"You...shouldn't you be in Wangzhou? How could this happen?!"
"I'm sorry to disappoint Marquis Dingping, but since you gave me such a great gift, I will naturally return it to you."
After Gu Shaoyu finished speaking, he threw a small wooden box over. A human head rolled out of it. When the head reached Marquis Dingping's feet, he could see clearly that the man was Shang Qilang in disguise.
"ah……"
Several maids not far away were frightened and screamed, which broke the originally peaceful atmosphere of Dingping Marquis' Mansion.
There was heavy snow falling from the sky, and the chill on everyone's body was biting. But even in this situation, Marquis Dingping still felt a burning pain on his face.
Shang Qillang was the person he tried his best to protect. After he recovered from his injuries, he was kept in the dark as a pawn. Later, he entered the palace and met His Majesty. Then he disguised himself and went to work as an expatriate official near Cezhou.
Originally, they were counting on this man to bring Gu Shaoyu a blow by confiscating his property and exterminating his clan, but who would have thought that today, he would be thrown to them with his head and body separated. Marquis Dingping was filled with anger and resentment.
Then he glared at me and said viciously.
"You don't even let your own...brother go? Are you still human?"
"You speak as if you are so upright. If I remember correctly, you poisoned the Fourth Prince to death, and those who followed him were uprooted one by one. In terms of insidiousness and vileness, I can't compare to the Marquis, don't you think?"
Marquis Dingping was speechless for a moment. He could only look at Gu Shaoyu unwillingly and keep thinking of countermeasures.
"Besides, it wasn't me who chopped off his head. It was Qin Jiping who did it!"
Qin Jiping is the deputy general of the Royal Army. If his sword has been swung towards Shang Qilang, then it can only mean one thing, that the power of the Royal Army has fallen into the hands of others. Otherwise, with Lu Fushen's temperament, he would never "surrender" to Gu Shaoyu.
At this moment, Marquis Dingping weighed it in his mind, and then said calmly.
"Although there are some disagreements between me and General Gu, we are not enemies who would destroy your entire family and confiscate your property. So, who do you want to protect, Prince Rong or the Seventh Prince? Give me a clear answer!"
The daughter sent by the Jia family did not give birth to a prince in the end, so he did not have any special powers. So in order to save his life and the power of the whole family today, he would naturally follow Gu Shaoyu and surrender.
Gu Shaoyu's disdain reached its peak when he saw Marquis Dingping planning to join the "wise leader" again like a fence-sitter.
Then he looked at Marquis Dingping with a stern look and said.
"Over the years, the Marquis of Dingping's mansion has been bullying people. I think it's because the Marquis is a good leader. How do you know that the future emperor will look up to you for your virtue?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After being interrupted by Gu Shaoyu, Marquis Dingping's expression became even uglier.
But if he didn't bow his head, he was afraid that the fate of Shang Qilang who was sleeping on the ground would be his tomorrow, so he had to endure it for now so that he would have a chance again in the future.
When he turned over, the first person he would deal with was the shameless Gu Shaoyu!
"Don't even think about it. You have no chance of turning things around. I'm here today to send your whole family to hell."
"You! Are you kidding me? Killing an official of the imperial court and taking human life are two serious crimes. Do you think you can get away with it?"
"What a joke! If I, Gu Shaoyu, was afraid of being punished, why would I rebel?!"
After saying that, he waved his hand, and outside, the Tiger Guards had tied up a large number of masters and servants in the Dingping Marquis' Mansion. Now they were kneeling in the snow in an orderly manner. Some of them were dragged out directly from the warm quilts, so they only had one piece of underwear, and their mouths were now frozen purple.
"Master, help me!"
"Father, Father, save me..."
The loud screams made Dingping Hou's blood boil. His eyes went dark and he almost fell down. Then he looked at Gu Shaoyu with hatred in his eyes.
"What do you want to do?"
"I've already said it before, I'll send your family to reunite on the road to the underworld!"
Afterwards, Gu Shaoyu waved his hand, and Mu Lianying beside him stood up and took out a booklet which recorded all the evil deeds of the people in Dingping Marquis' Mansion!
