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

Yang Guofu looked confused: "Chicken...what does the chicken become? A puppet?"

Gu Yue said: "Nothing. Oh, Shopkeeper Yang..."

He endured it and endured it.

This is even ridiculous!

"Shopkeeper Yang, I wonder what you want to talk to me about?" Gu Yue said in a friendly tone, "Is it about this shop?"

"That's right." Yang Guofu didn't take Gu Yue's strange behavior to heart. He said, "The young master of the mansion helped my young lady and protected the treasure of my late wife. I am really grateful."

"We are all friends." Gu Yue smiled, "Manager Yang, there is no need to be modest. We are all doing business, and we will be friends from now on."

"Thank you, uncle." Yang Guofu's face looked better. "This shop...excuse me for being frank, I'm afraid it's a little strange."

He said without further ado: "This shop was originally owned by the wealthy merchant Xie from Luoyang, selling rare and precious fruits. About half a month ago, on the day when the news of your title was announced, a group of people who looked like servants came."

"These people were holding sticks and drove away the customers in the shop. They told the shop owner to call the Xie family over. The shop owner saw that the situation was not good, so he went to call the young master of the Xie family to take charge of the situation."

"And then?" Gu Yue had a bad feeling.

"Then, the servants seemed to be shouting, saying that the newly-appointed Duke Dunxin is a favorite of His Majesty and a meritorious official of Northern Qin. He has set his eyes on this piece of land and has asked for an imperial decree to reward it, and asked the Xie family to bring out the deed to the shop."

"Ah?" Gu Yue was stunned.

"The Xie family is also a wealthy business family. They have received rewards from the palace, so they naturally know the specific procedures, so they refuse to comply."

"I definitely won't agree to this!" Gu Yue said gritting his teeth.

"This group of people beat up Master Xie, and it is said that he is still unable to get out of the ground." Yang Guofu said, "The Xie family wanted to ask for an explanation, but unexpectedly, the imperial edict came down soon, asking the Xie family to give up their shop. They exchanged it for a shop on another street. But the location is not as good as this one."

"How can this be possible!" He Gui had never heard of such a thing. He asked, "Who are those people? Why are they parading around in the name of the master?"

"There is also a rumor in the capital that you, Lord Dunxin, were once a gangster from a remote village who only knew how to gamble. It was only because you stole the adopted son that you won the emperor's favor." Yang Guofu said.

Gu Yue was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

Such a...stupid and crude method is the most effective!

How could ordinary people understand the process of imperial granting? Once that group of people started talking, it became that he used his merits to force the emperor to grant him the shop. And because of his background as a gambler, this matter seemed extremely real.

"Anything else?" Gu Yue asked patiently.

"Nothing else. The Xie family seems to have not expressed their views. I wonder if they have figured out the trick." Yang Guofu said, "Master Gu, to be honest, if you and Master Gu hadn't helped my girl, I would have believed it."

"I see." Gu Yue said, "Manager Yang, thank you so much for taking the risk to tell me this, but I'm afraid I can't entertain you today. I have to go and deal with this matter quickly."

Yang Guofu said, "That's not true, my Lord. My late wife always taught us to be grateful and repay kindness. If my Lord needs anything, my young lady will definitely do her best to help."

"Okay, I'll make a note of it." Gu Yue nodded, "But please don't tell Gu Xu about this for now..."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, uncle." Yang Guofu bowed and left.

"What should we do now?" He Gui frowned.

"Go to Hangdou Bookstore to find Zhen Suhang." Gu Yue said. If he wanted to manipulate public opinion, he just happened to have the biggest helper.

……

Wumen is the main temple in Luoyang.

Wu Fei divided the information into two batches and put them into different wooden boxes.

He picked up the remaining one on the table, looked at it, sneered, and threw it back on the table.

"What's wrong?" Wu Hun came in from outside and heard his sneer.

"Nothing." Wu Fei turned around and distributed another stack of papers.

Wu Hun picked up the paper on the table and took a look at it: "Lord Dun Xin... he still does such a thing? Could it be fake?"

"Why can't he do it? He colluded with the prince to steal the credit of his master. Now, he is a gambler who came from nowhere. Not only has he taken the title, but he also wants to cling to his master." Wu Fei frowned.

"You have also been to Ganzhou with the master. You should know what he is like." Wu Hu said, "Tell me about it?"

"He's a little clever, but he'll only hinder us." Wu Fei said, "Because of him, I was almost killed by the assassin that day."

"I have heard about that incident as well." Wu Hun sat down on the chair. "I don't know why the people of our Wu Sect obeyed the orders of Gu Dashi. Maybe it was the master's order."

Wu Fei frowned and said nothing.

"Speaking of which, you are also an old man in the sect, and you should know something about what happened back then." Wu Hun asked, "Master, do you want to avenge Master Huaiyue and his wife?"

"The truth is not clear, and there is no way to take revenge now." Wu Fei said.

"Master, have you not investigated these matters in the past two years?" Wu Hun held his cheek with one hand, "I wonder what he is doing. Is Gu Dashi's matter to Master Huai Yue important?"

There was no clear emotion in Wu Fei's eyes, and he did not respond.

……

Gu Yue and his group even circled twice to confirm that no one was following them before heading to the bookstore. When they arrived at the door, they informed the doorman of their purpose and were allowed in.

Gu Yue walked into the main hall with ease and sat down on the new Chinese-style sofa. The receptionist brought tea, and Gu Yue poured three cups for Shi San and He Gui.

He Gui quickly took it with both hands.

Zhen Suhang arrived soon and walked into the main hall happily, holding something in his hand.

"You're still laughing!" Gu Yue shouted, "I'm in big trouble!"

"Hey~ You are underestimating me, aren't you?" Zhen Suhang shook his finger and sat down on the sofa opposite. "Are you here because of the incident at the Xie family shop?"

"You knew?" Gu Yue pretended to be angry: "You knew and you didn't inform me!"

"Young Master Gu told me not to bother you too much if there is anything. You are very thoughtful and think a lot." Zhen Suhang said, "Look! I have found out the whole story and sorted it out. I was just about to send it to your house, and then you came."

Gu Yue was so touched.

"Good brother!" He quickly took the booklet and looked at it carefully.

This investigation report by Zhen Suhang has the feel of a professional journalist.

Gu Yue had never seen a professional journalist's report, but this document was clear, objective, and clear at a glance. It first listed the course of events through interviews with different witnesses, and also drew portraits based on the descriptions; then it was followed by the results of the field investigation, which store had seen these people and where, all written in great detail.

Zhen Suhang said: "From the results of the investigation, this group of people are not ordinary servants. They are well-trained, and there are designated routes for the execution and retreat of the shop incident."

The report showed that the group of people also left in the direction of the Duke Dunxin's mansion.

He performed the whole act, which was really amazing.
