Chapter 293 Three Go, Two Return
The next day, the news that the Ye family's eldest son had kidnapped the Zhou family's second son leaked out from somewhere and spread throughout the city that morning.
When the Zhou and Ye families opened the door, they were shocked to hear the rumors outside.
The news that the two families tried so hard to hide has become known to everyone.
When Gu Congyun and Zhuang Hefeng heard the news, they thought they had been tricked.
"The eldest son of the Ye family kidnapped the second son of the Zhou family? Am I hallucinating?" Zhuang Hefeng couldn't believe it.
Gu Congyun said, "Someone has already reported this to the court this morning. Marquis Jing'an is a poor parent. The Crown Prince actually came to insult his own grandfather. The Ye family is also uneducated, allowing their eldest son to secretly kidnap the second son of the Zhou family..."
"Is it so lively in the court?" Zhuang Hefeng suddenly became excited.
She likes to hear any bad news about the Ye and Zhou families.
She would have felt dissatisfied with the suffering her sisters Ye and Sheng had endured in the past if they had not both lived a miserable life.
Gu Congyun knew that she was anxious, so he patiently explained to her what happened in the court.
"Originally, the court officials had no idea what was going on, but then the censors came forward one after another, impeaching these two families. The emperor was so taken aback by the scene. Recently, these two families have become the most notorious and shameful in Dizhou City."
Zhuang Hefeng clapped his hands after hearing this, "This is truly heartening! The Ye and Zhou families bullied He Sheng so badly back then, and now they're getting worse and worse. I can't wait to see them suffer even more..."
Gu Congyun nodded. "Yes, the descendants of these two families used to be outstanding, but they have become increasingly useless. Especially the Ye family's eldest son. His behavior this time was too arrogant. He even dared to do something like kidnapping. He is simply lawless."
Except for Gu Yuxuan who was still studying hard under the supervision of Mr. Changbai, all the other members of the Gu family were present.
Wu Yixuan listened to these words and looked in the direction of Gu Ruanci.
She always felt that Gu Ruanci was not surprised by these things, as if he had known about them for a long time.
"Soft words, what do you think?" she asked deliberately.
"I'm waiting to see how they end this. If the feud between the two families is exposed like this, it won't do them any good. That idiot from the Ye family didn't consider the consequences. He clearly kidnapped the wrong person and could have just sent him back. Instead, he didn't come back all night. It's a good thing that the second son of the Zhou family is not a woman, and it's also a good thing that the eldest son of the Ye family doesn't have any special habits that have been leaked, otherwise the reputations of these two people would be ruined. It's already this time, any personal grudges should be resolved, and the eldest son of the Ye family's crazy time should be over. I wonder how the Ye family plans to explain this to the Zhou family."
"Who cares? There's no good person in either family anyway, especially that Zhou Yuzhi. He's not a good guy at all..."
Gu Yulou said casually that as a martial artist, there was no need for him to be so literary.
Gu Yuting also said: "Third brother is right. No matter what happens to such people, there is no need to sympathize with them."
pity?
When Gu Ruanci heard these two words, she wanted to laugh.
If she had any compassion for the Zhou family, she would have taken action after receiving Lu Enyan's letter last night, and perhaps she could have prevented some things from happening.
But she is not a saint, and she has no interest in saving her enemies or waiting to influence them with love and make them sincerely repent.
"Moreover, the Ye family did act a bit rashly this time, but the second son of the Zhou family is not a pushover either. It's possible that there has been a grudge between the two of them for a long time." Gu Ruanci deliberately made this analysis, which made the Gu family believe it a little.
After all, Zhou Yuqi’s death was indeed Ye Chengyun’s fault.
Even though Ye Chengyun died not long after, the Ye family never made a sincere apology.
Gu Yulou raised an eyebrow when he heard this. "Are you saying that this kidnapping might have been staged by Zhou Yuzhi himself? That's unlikely. Isn't he afraid of really angering the Ye family?"
Gu Ruanci shook her head. "It's not like he staged it himself, but Zhou Yuzhi is no fool. He won't let anyone get a hold of him easily. He won't suffer any loss this time. While he studied medicine, he must have also learned poison. If Ye Chenglei really disrespects him, I'm afraid he'll suffer the consequences."
Gu Yuting also frowned. "If that's the case, then the Ye family will never be able to clear themselves of this. However, the eldest son of the Ye family has always acted impulsively. This incident was probably his own doing and had nothing to do with the rest of the Ye family. The Ye family is currently in a turbulent time, and they will definitely not turn against their allies so easily."
Gu Ruanci nodded slightly. "Yes, it's true that the eldest son of the Ye family was impulsive, but the Ye family won't give up on him easily. This matter will ultimately depend on how the two families negotiate, and what the final outcome of these two people will be. After someone has been missing for a night, anything could happen."
Everyone always felt that her words were hiding something, but there was no way to delve deeper.
"My little sister is right. Our Gu family should just watch the show. Their two families have lived a good life for so many years thanks to Aunt He Sheng's blessing. Now this dog-eat-dog fight may be a punishment for them." Gu Yuting concluded.
Hearing this, Gu Ruanci smiled faintly, "Second brother is right. Our Gu family really doesn't need to get involved in this matter. However, I'm curious, if there are really casualties this time, who will attack whom between the Ye family and the Zhou family?"
Gu Yuting raised his head, a glint of wisdom in his eyes. "If that's the case, I'm afraid they'll just have to grit their teeth and swallow their anger, not daring to speak out. After all, both families are no longer as strong as they used to be. They'll just play games with each other, giving up some of their profits to the one that suffers the most."
Their discussion didn't last long, as the people below had already heard the latest news.
"Master, Madam, the two young masters of the Zhou family are back!"
"Two young masters? That's right, Zhou Yuxiu was also on the mountain last night." Gu Congyun was stunned for a moment and then reacted immediately.
Zhuang Hefeng asked, "What about the young master of the Ye family? Did they come back together?"
The servant said with a very rich expression: "No, the second young master came back first, followed by the eldest young master. As for the young master of the Ye family, he has also been carried back to the Ye family."
This sentence interested the Gu family members.
"He was carried back? He was injured? Was he beaten by the two Zhou brothers?" The possibility that Zhuang Hefeng thought of was the most realistic.
But the servant shook his head and said, "No, the young master of the Ye family is dead. Those who followed the eldest young master of the Ye family to kidnap the second young master of the Zhou family last night are also dead..."
Except for Gu Ruanci, everyone else was extremely shocked.
"So many people died, how come the second son of the Zhou family is okay?"
