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

Zhen Suhang said proudly: "This group of servants are well-trained and retreated very quickly. However, I sent people to investigate and still found their clues."

Gu Yue looked down and saw the report saying that an old man who often sat in silence at the entrance of the street saw the group of servants gathering together and finally entered...

In Lu Cheng's mansion.

Gu Yue had some impression of Lu Cheng. At his housewarming party, this man kept urging him to marry Gu Xu...separately.

"Lü Cheng is an official of the Ministry of Rites, and he has the Silijian, who is in charge of the palace rewards," Zhen Suhang said. "This person took the imperial examination every year during the reign of the previous emperor, but he always failed. It was not until the first year of the emperor's reign that he passed the examination. Therefore, this person has always been a loyal party of the emperor, there is no doubt about it."

Gu Yue frowned.

Zhen Suhang sighed: "Look at what happened! What does the emperor mean? If he wants to reward, he should do it properly. Why does he have to do such a disgusting thing?"

"Is this the emperor's instruction?" Gu Yue murmured.

"Lu Cheng has no conflict of interest with you. He is about to become a minister. You can't suppress him even if you go to the Ministry of Rites. Why would he target you? It must be the emperor's order." Zhen Suhang said.

Gu Yue was puzzled: "If my reputation is ruined, what good will it do to the emperor? If a rotten man like me, Gu Dashi, is made an earl, won't it make him look stupid and blind?"

Zhen Suhang held his cheek and said, "Who knows? Maybe he wanted to praise Lord Gu Xu alone, so he stepped on one and praised the other, using cow dung to set off the flowers."

Gu Yue thought that this person's words were really rude.

"The tactic of pulling down and criticizing is common in online media, but this was in ancient times. Who knows whether the emperor had learned it on his own?" Zhen Suhang said.

Gu Yue frowned.

He did have a premonition.

He just felt that his adoptive father was too smart and Gu Xu seemed to obey him, so he wanted to kill him.

The Su family also wanted to get rid of King Yin because of his solicitation. Now that Gu Xu doesn't seem to be as stupid as King Yin said, they should give up the idea... But what about the emperor and the prince?

If Qin Zhaoyue was really that smart, he would have noticed Gu Xu's many ways of protecting him, and the emperor might have noticed it as well.

On that day of the arranged marriage, Gu Xu finally showed his emotions. Even though his outrageous words had changed his mind, the world is not short of people with ulterior motives, especially the emperor and his group of ministers who stood at the top of Northern Qin. There were hundreds of people in the hall with hundreds of millions of ulterior motives.

Ugh! I actually feel sweet inside! Gu Yue scratched his hair.

"Let's not talk about the emperor's motives for now." Zhen Suhang said, "If you want to keep your fried chicken business going, you have to go to the Xie family."

Gu Yue nodded silently.

Zhen Suhang introduced: "The Xie family has a century-old foundation and often donates silver and materials to the court. They donated 300,000 taels of silver and 1,000 dan of grain to the war in Ganzhou. The master of the Xie family is a well-known philanthropist. Wherever there is a disaster, their porridge stall will appear there."

Zhen Suhang shook his head: “Tsk tsk tsk, you, Gu Dashi, have really angered the heavens and the people for offending such a good family!”

"...What should I do? Judging from your appearance, you should have a solution." Gu Yue looked at him: "Good brother, tell me quickly!"

Zhen Suhang felt relaxed. "I've calculated for you. The price difference between the shop that the court exchanged with the Xie family and yours is about five thousand taels. You send this money to the Xie family and explain it well... It's just that Mr. Xie's injury is a bit difficult to deal with. It is said that he broke his bones and muscles. It's hard to say whether he can stand up in the future."

Gu Yue immediately thought of Wu Ye.

"This famous doctor in Luoyang..." he asked. If he could avoid using Gu Xu's people, he would not use them. Besides, Wuye was still a person close to the prince. He had just been appointed as an official in the Imperial Medical Bureau, so he was worried.

"Whatever I can invite, the Xie family can naturally invite. Whatever I can't invite, the Xie family can also invite. I really can't do anything about it." Zhen Suhang spread his hands.

Gu Yue was extremely depressed.

Five thousand taels of silver are going to go down the drain like this...

"Leave now? The sooner the better." Gu Yue said.

"Well, you go to the Xie family's door and wait there, handing over your visiting card, just like the prince is coming to see you, until they let you in." Zhen Suhang said, "If you hand over a visiting card normally, you will definitely be rejected!"

"Okay. I happen to know a good doctor. Let him see if Mr. Xie can still be cured. It will show my sincerity."

"I'll help you with the public opinion." Zhen Suhang became proud again, "Just watch me."

"Want to say something good for me?" Gu Yue's face was full of emotion.

"Of course I can't speak for you directly, but I have to build momentum first." Zhen Suhang said, "After all, I used to work in the Public Opinion Management Office, so just wait and see."

"Thank you very much." Gu Yue held his hand and shook it vigorously.

……

After receiving the message from Gu Yue, Wu Feng quickly passed the news over.

"What does he want me to do?" Wu Ye looked at the note in Gu Xu's hand.

"No." Gu Xu said.

It only said that Wu Ye needed help with something, and also said not to tell Gu Xu...

Gu Xu frowned.

What else is there to hide from him?

He asked Wu Feng: "What's the news in Luoyang City?"

"No." Wu Feng was confused. I read the news of Fengtang every day, so I would not miss any questions."

Gu Xu hesitated for a moment and said, "You and Wu Ye go find him together and report back if anything happens."

"Yes." Wu Feng clasped his fists.

Wu Ye said: "This is not good. I just entered the Imperial Medical Bureau and I have a lot of things to do."

"Pick someone from Fengtang to replace you." Gu Xu said.

"Then let's go with Wu Fei. This kid learns the art of disguise very quickly." Wu Feng said.

"Okay." Gu Xu said.

Wu Fei followed them to Ganzhou and had a relatively good understanding of the current situation and also knew Wu Ye's identity.

Wu Ye agreed.

……

The Wumen people acted quickly. Although Wuye was not a martial artist, he knew some martial arts skills. Soon, the two met Gu Yue at the entrance of the alley near Xie's house.

Gu Yue looked at the two of them and sighed: "Gu Xu knows?"

Wu Feng was stuck: "Uh... I didn't tell him."

Wu Ye said nothing and looked left and right.

"Let's go." Gu Yue shook his head.

They walked to the door of Xie's house and found the carriage abandoned in the alley.

Gu Yue led the way, and Shi San and the other two followed behind. He Gui walked up to the door with a visiting card in his hand and knocked.

"Who are you?" The servant in front of the door had already seen them. When he saw He Gui coming, he took the visiting card and opened it.

Before He Gui could say anything, the servant's face changed after reading the visiting card.

"You... I'm afraid it's not convenient for my master to see you." said the servant, stuffing the note back into He Gui's hands.

He Gui said: "My uncle only found out about the incident in the shop today. It was not his intention. Please..."

The servant interrupted him and said, "Brother, it's not that I don't give you face, but it's such a big thing, the master and the mistress are both angry, we brothers have done our best by not kicking you out, who dares to send news in?"
