Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

"First of all, if Yin Shun occupied the general's mansion by force, why did he leave these servants behind?" Gu Yue raised his index finger.

"...Cleaning?" Wu Feng said.

"But you can see that this yard is completely abandoned and has no use at all." Gu Yue said, "Besides, they only want to use the tunnel, so what does it matter if the yard is clean or not?"

Gu Xu nodded.

"Secondly, why did they kill all the servants? They had found the location of the tunnel a long time ago, why did they wait until now?" Gu Yue said.

Wu Feng was also silent.

"Besides, if you want to kill them, why not kill them all? The female family members are obviously only separated by a wall. Do the male servants know more? But judging from Mu Dayou's performance, that's not the case at all. He knows as much as the maids."

Gu Xu said: "It is impossible that they were too short of time. The testimonies of both parties said that it took half an hour for Wu Feng to find them."

"Did the killer kill the men and then turn around to support the melee in the courtyard? But all the guards were in the main courtyard at that time." Wu Feng recalled.

Gu Yue nodded in agreement: "There was a fight in the yard, but this man went to kill the servants and leisurely closed the door of the secret room before coming out. But he only killed the people in one room. This is really unreasonable."

All three of them were in deep thought.

Gu Yue shook his head. Their attention should not be on the general's mansion now. Yin Shun was dead. No one could prove that the whole thing was related to Mu You. All the crimes could be easily pushed to the Hu merchant Yin Shun. Only the captured rebels in the camp could prove that it was Mu You's instigation, but it was just some confessions. The battle outside the pass involved the Jing army. Mu You could easily shirk responsibility. It was Qin Zhaoyue who forced him to confess and framed him.

There are both advantages and disadvantages to Mu You's return to Beijing.

Because Ganzhou was leaderless, they easily defeated the conspiracy of gold mines and poisonous weeds and took control of the General's Mansion.

The disadvantage is that Mu You is far away from the center of the incident and has no military power, so his suspicion is greatly reduced.

A man ran over from the outer courtyard. He was a guard from Jing’s army.

"My Lords, there is an urgent letter from the camp." He took out an envelope and Wu Feng went to take it.

Gu Xu took it, unfolded it, read the contents, and immediately frowned.

Gu Yue leaned over to read it. It said that the captured rebels all said that the assassination outside the pass was a trumped-up charge and no one admitted the crime. They were completely unaware of the poisoning of the grain and grass, and even spread rumors in the camp that the poisoning of the Donglin Guard was staged by Qin Zhaoyue himself.

The military supervisor from Luoyang was probably also on Mu You's side, keeping the matter secret and refusing to cooperate truthfully. Qin Zhaoyue was investigating the poisoning, hoping to find key evidence.

"Trouble!" Gu Yue said irritably.

Gu Xu frowned, "In this situation, torture cannot be used."

"After all, Qin Zhaoyue is fine... If I had known earlier, I would have asked him to use a self-torture trick." Gu Yue sighed. He really didn't expect this.

What should we do now?

If they cannot bring down Mu You, there is no chance that they can enter the officialdom through meritorious service, and they may even be used as a scapegoat by Mu You.

Gu Xu's background is complicated. After all, the Su family is behind him, and there are also the parents of Prince Shen who are suspected of treason. If he is bitten back...

The fifth prince is favored, while Prince Shen is hated. It is clear who the emperor will favor.

"Qin Zhaochen is of no use anymore." Gu Yue said.

Trouble, trouble!

Gu Yue felt so annoyed. Couldn't this matter end smoothly?

Seeing that he was frowning, Gu Xu comforted him, "It's okay. We'll think of another way. Since we've done this, there won't be no flaws."

Gu Yue responded sullenly.

Speaking of evidence, how did the original text bring down Mu You?

The charge was treason, but the gold mine was not discovered. The evidence was produced by Gu Xu, which was the correspondence between him and Zuo Wang.

King Zuo had a plan to guard against him and did not destroy the letter.

How did Gu Xu get the letter at that time?

It doesn’t matter. Anyway, King Zuo has these letters in his hands. Now that the Western Di have declared war, it is impossible for King Zuo to travel around the world.

Go and overthrow the King of Xidi and get those letters!

Gu Yue was dejected. This was much more difficult than dragging Mu You out and killing him!

He raised his eyes to look at Gu Xu.

Gu Xu's brows relaxed, and he didn't look serious anymore. He met Gu Yue's eyes and smiled, "I have an idea."

"What method?" Gu Yue seemed to have some idea. Gu Xu's answer might be...

Gu Xu said: "Since he is colluding with Xidi, then King Zuo must have evidence of his communication with him. Let's go to Xidi."

really!

Gu Yue's eyes wandered for a moment.

"Can we defeat King Zuo with just a few of us?" he said.

"It's not just us." Gu Xu said.

Gu Yue looked at him and immediately remembered the news he heard at Tumeng's house.

The Western Di had two kings. The Right King advocated peace and controlled most of the Western Di troops. This time when the Western Di went to war with Northern Qin, the Right King did not show up. Whether the Right King avoided the war or was held hostage by others, he certainly did not support this war.

"Right King... do you want to meet the Right King of Xidi?" Gu Yue said.

"Smart." Gu Xu smiled.

He then said solemnly: "According to the information provided by Qin Zhaochen, most of the generals in the Ganzhou camp are involved in this matter, and Qin Zhaoyue cannot capture them all. If the remaining people send a message to the Western Di, the Western Di will take the opportunity to attack. With only Qin Zhaoyue's manpower, it may be difficult to resist."

Gu Yue nodded: "Let's get going."

Gu Xu looked at him deeply.

"let's go."

……

Gu Xu was not confident in handing over all the affairs of Ganzhou to the Jing army, so he still left Wu Yan and Wu Yun to take charge of the overall situation. He and Gu Yue, along with Shi San, Wu Huo, and a military doctor Wu Ye, rushed to the outside of the Great Wall through the secret passage of the General's Mansion.

Wumen's men have already explored the exit of this end of the secret passage, which is located in the mountains near Ganjin tribe, the closest to Xidi, and is very secretive.

Gu Xu and Gu Yue led the horses out of the mountain crevice.

The secret guards nearby had already appeared. Seeing Gu Xu coming over, they clasped their fists and said, "Master. This is a barren mountain. There is no danger. This is the map drawn by your subordinates."

He presented a roll of parchment with clear ink marks and some symbols that Gu Yue could not understand.

"You did a good job." Gu Xu said.

Gu Yue also nodded and smiled at this person.

The secret guard said, "From here out of the woods, we will reach the territory of the Ganjin tribe."

Gu Xu got on his horse. Wu Huo and Shi San were guarding him from the front and back. Wu Ye followed behind Gu Xu and Gu Yue's horses, feeling anxious.

The master has never been kind to him since he came back!

He originally thought that the issue of food and grass had been resolved and Qin Zhaoyue had come out of seclusion, and no one would target Boss Gu anymore. So for the sake of safety, he followed Qin Zhaoyue and left the Ganzhou camp.

Who would have thought that the matter was leaked inexplicably, and Boss Gu was in crisis and had to run away from Ganzhou...

Fortunately, Boss Gu is fine. If he had been bumped into something, his boss would be in a bad mood now.

He also felt a little guilty.

He fails to consider things carefully and distinguish the priorities of tasks.

But Qin Zhaoyue's safety is equally important. He has been lurking beside Qin Zhaoyue for two years, isn't it just to wait for this day?

The prince cannot die now.

Wu Ye thought, if he had known to take Wu Yue out of Luoyang, he wouldn't be so busy. With her around, who can touch Boss Gu?

Sister, brother needs you. Wuye wept in his heart.
