MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 440

Chapter 440

 When the other Gu family members saw this, they just said a few polite words and left.

After they all left, the eldest aunt and Mrs. Xing hurriedly took the Taoist priest to deal with the matter and left in a hurry.

At this point, Qiwu Courtyard was finally quiet.

Du Jingyi took a bottle and put it under Gu Shaoyu's nose and gave him a sniff. Only then did he gradually wake up and then said something.

"Madam, this secret medicine is so easy to use that it can even fool the famous doctors in Jinling City."

Du Jingyi smiled, this must be attributed to her father, Mr. Du, who likes to hoard a lot of money at home to get the secret medicine of the Western Regions. In the past, the fifth house of the Duke's Mansion used one. Today, it is given to Young Master Gu. Yu used another one.

“General, stop joking. Now that we both have reasons not to appear in front of everyone, what should we do next?”

Gu Shaoyu stood up, then took a sip of warm water. When he opened his eyes again, he was no longer in the half-dead state he had just been in. He looked like a wolf who had succeeded in his calculations and was about to sneak up on his prey from behind.

"Let Luo Yuan disguise himself as me later and lie here waiting. I'm afraid those people have noticed your identity and may take action. He is here and can protect you. As for me, naturally I will Go dig out those things, and when His Majesty's order arrives, we can uproot all the remnants of the previous dynasty in Jinling City."

Hearing this, Du Jingyi didn't react at all, but Luo Yuan outside the house looked depressed, right? They asked him to lift his body again?

He felt that this kind of work should be left to Ni Yang. He had rested for so long, so he should charge into the battle!

 But before he could speak, Ni Yang next to him teased him.

“Complete the orders given by the general well. Now it is just an appetizer. When His Majesty’s order comes, I promise you will be at the forefront.”

When Ni Yang said this, he didn't even blink his eyes. His sincerity moved everyone, including Luo Yuan.

But Luo Yuan forgot one thing at this moment, Ni Yang said it, but how could he be Gu Shaoyu's master, so saying it is the same as not saying it!

Feeling that he had hope in the future, Luo Yuan no longer felt how difficult this job was at the moment, and even took the initiative to go to disguise himself. At the same time, Gu Shaoyu and Ni Yang took advantage of the dark moon and high wind that night. , quietly left the Gu family and went straight to Qingshui Town.

There, there were Mu Lianying and others who had been waiting for a long time. Their eyes were as bright as wild wolves out for food, and everything they looked at was glowing green.

 The next day, a grand ceremony was held at the Gu family cemetery.

Everyone in Qingshui Town had heard about it, and some people even went outside to watch the excitement. Although they couldn't see what was going on inside the cemetery, they could tell just by listening that there must be a big fight going on inside.

However, the Gu family did not say to the outside that they performed this ritual because Gu Shaoyu fell ill, but that they would do their best for Mrs. Gu in advance. After all, where the death anniversary is placed, the former Marshal Gu and others also I had a month-long religious ceremony, so people outside didn’t think much about it.

Auntie and Mrs. Xing were sitting in charge, and no one in the Gu family said anything. They also hoped that after this ritual was over, Gu Shaoyu would get better and continue to bring glory to the Gu family.

 The entire month of October ended with the Gu family living in seclusion.

On the first day of winter, the temperature in Jinling City began to drop significantly. The coolness suddenly changed people from autumn clothes to winter, and what followed was a winter rain that made people's hands and feet cold.

At the same time, a piece of news that shook Qifang was finally spread from Sui'an City to Jinling City. When Gu Yanguang, as the prefect, learned about the news, it was only after Zheng Deli led people into his government office that he found out. of.

"What are you doing? You dare to barge into the prefect's mansion? Do you want your life?" The ones shouting were the guards in the government office. They had never seen such a scene since they came here to take office, so naturally they were shouting fiercely.

Unfortunately, Zheng Deli had a bad temper, so he whipped him with a whip, causing the man's skin to be torn and his flesh torn apart, and he was screaming in pain.

"what?"

 Then he shouted loudly to the people present.

“The Huben Army, following His Majesty’s decree, raided the prefect’s office and detained all of them pending trial. No interference is allowed. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed on the spot!”

"yes!"

The emperor's edict, but also the prefect's office to be inspected?

With just one word, the guards, who were not very strong in fighting ability, squatted on the ground and abandoned their armor, waiting to be punished.

Zheng Deli looked at it with disgust and went straight to where Gu Yanguang was.

And he was resting at noon now. When he opened his eyes again, Zheng Deli's sledgehammer was pressing on him, and his face was turned purple!

"Aren't you the deputy general of the Huben Army? What are you doing?"

"Master Gu, please! Your third brother committed a crime in Sui'an City and has been convicted by the Ministry of Punishment. He is accused of harboring the remnants of the previous dynasty. I think this is the end of your official career. Oh no, it should be the end of your life." Come on, let’s go, go to the prison and go through the motions, it will be considered as a death that is not unjust.”

 “What! You...”

Gu Yanguang didn't know the news at all. His third brother had not returned for a long time. He had known it for a long time. He thought he was going to stay in Sui'an City to build a relationship. Unexpectedly, the relationship did not work out and his life was lost. , and suddenly the whole back was soaked in cold sweat.

Zheng Deli didn't bother to talk nonsense with him and immediately asked someone to tie Gu Yanguang up. So when he was taken away, he was still wearing single clothes and he was shivering from the cold.

But he also wanted to complain, but there was a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth, making the sky and the sky unable to respond, and the earth and the earth also stopped working.

The common people didn't know why, so they watched a group of people rush into the prefect's mansion, and then they escorted the prisoners away in a mighty manner. Half of the people who were left began to search the government offices one after another. The commotion was so loud that it was alarming. Everyone was trembling looking at it.

At the same time, the ancestral home of the seventh family of the Gu family and the command post in the city where Gu Yanxing was located were also investigated at the same time. Master Xing went to one place, and the Tiger Army led by Luo Yuan went to the other place.

It's just that Luo Yuan's side was in vain. Instead, Mr.

“Where did the news come from? Why didn’t I receive it? Trying to deceive us with these fake things is just nonsense!”

The seventh old man and Gu Yanxing naturally knew that the matter was exposed, so they probably ran away one after another. Gu Yanxing refused to admit it, just to escape from here.

Although the words were addressed to Mr.

Father and son are connected, so the seventh old man naturally knew what his son was going to do, so he helped and covered it up.

Chapter 3: Wait a moment, I’m currently writing it! !
