Chapter 167: It's just a fight at best
"Dachun." He called out after he had walked quite a distance.
"master."
A man in his thirties suddenly appeared.
"Go and clean up the people lying in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion gate, clean up the blood, and restore everything to normal."
"Yes." Dachun left.
When Zhan Yi came, he saw the injuries of the guards. Although he had hit them hard, they were still breathing.
If they are alive, it doesn't count as murder, at most it's just a fight.

"Mr. Gu, can this marriage of yours be successful?" Ye Qianning leaned back in his chair.
"I will personally meet with the Emperor in a few days to reject this marriage."
Old Gu was absolutely unwilling to marry Prime Minister Gao. He was not in the capital when Gu Yuan arranged the marriage. He only heard from the fourth brother after he came back that the girl's surname was Gao, so he thought she was Gao Zichen's daughter. He never expected that she was this brainless person.
Mrs. Gao's face became even gloomier.
"Since it can't be done, I won't show mercy."
Gu Lao's face lit up with joy: "If it works, will the little girl show mercy for my sake?"
"Of course, Mr. Gu has helped me a lot, so I have to give him face." Although Ye Qianning did not like the Gu family, she did not hate Mr. Gu that much.
Mr. Gu was so happy to hear this that he couldn't stop smiling.
Gao Yunyue was stunned: "What do you mean by cancelling the engagement? This is the emperor's decree. If the Gu family cancels the engagement, they will be disobeying the order and the whole family will be executed."
"The Prime Minister's Office doesn't need to worry about whether he will be beheaded or not. The marriage must be cancelled." Old Gu raised his eyebrows.
"You don't have the final say. Brother Yuan really likes me and wants to marry me. You don't have the final say." Gao Yunyue cried loudly.
"No one dares to refute what the old man of the Gu family says." Old Gu's face also darkened.
"You..." Gao Yunyue turned around and cried, "Mom, Brother Yuan and I are truly in love."
Madam Gao secretly patted her hands, signaling her not to speak, and raised her head and said, "Mr. Gu really can't make the decision on this marriage."
"How do you say that?"
"It takes two to tango. The marriage between our two families was arranged by the Prime Minister and the fourth son of the Gu family who went to the emperor together to ask for his approval. It would be extremely difficult for Mr. Gu to cancel the engagement." Mrs. Gao said.
Old Gu was so angry that he was fuming. He hadn't been in charge of the household for so long that all the younger generations wanted to go to heaven.
Gao Yunyue wiped her tears and looked at Gu Lao who was speechless, and her mood instantly calmed down.
"Even if you want to get married, you have to have the life." Ye Qianning said lazily.
Mrs. Gao and Gao Yunyue became tense again when they heard this and looked at her warily.
Ye Qianning leaned against the chair. She was relatively small, so her back could touch the chair. Her entire calves were also on the chair. In order to sit comfortably, she lifted one of her feet and placed it on the armrest of the chair.
One of the little hands was still holding the wine jug, as lazy as it could be, as soft as cartilage.
Qian Fanji frowned slightly when he saw this scene when he walked in.
"Have you been drinking?" He walked over and asked lightly.
Ye Qianning ignored him, leaned forward to put the wine jug on the table, and then sat up again.
"Qian boy, why are you here too?" asked Mr. Gu.
"Just here to watch the fun." Qian Fan said and found a seat to sit down.
Gu Lao followed him and sat down, asking quietly, "What did you write in the booklet you gave the little girl? Could it be to have the Prime Minister's Mansion confiscated?"
Qian Fanji glanced at him without saying anything.
"Qian boy, I know you are a notoriously black-hearted person. How about selling whatever leverage you have to me?" Old Gu was calculating in his mind.
"Mr. Gu, please be patient." Qian Fanji said calmly.
