He didn't need to know the details! Gu Xu thought that as long as he killed all these people, he could avenge Gu Yue.

But he calmed down and turned his gaze back to Su Yingjian.

Su Yingjian seemed to have said something, and it was obvious that Gu Xu was distracted. He immediately realized that the rumors outside were not true.

Gu Xu and Gu Dashi...the relationship between them is probably not ordinary.

Su Yingjian said: "I mean, no matter what, my family will stand by you."

He added: "It's the newly separated Third House family. Not the Su family."

Gu Xu said: "Is this standing in line?"

"No!" Su Yingjian said hurriedly, "We are not taking sides... We just don't want to lose you again. Xiao Xu, my father regretted the Su family's inaction on my aunt's behalf. I feel the same way. Therefore, we will not let this happen again..."

"Unfortunately, I don't need your help." Gu Xu said coldly, "In the future, I won't end up like that."

Su Yingjian opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

His intuition told him that Gu Xu was not rejecting him. There seemed to be something in his words...

Gu Xu turned around: "Please sit down first."

Su Yingjian let out a long sigh. Wu Feng brought two armchairs, and Su Yingjian sat down, but Luo Dao stood still.

Su Yingjian was very nervous.

Is what he did right? Will making Gu Xu hostile to the Su family end up harming the Su family?

Less than a moment after Gu Xu left, he returned to the room with Fu Dao.

Before Fu Dao entered the room, Luo Dao's expression suddenly changed. However, he did not stand guard in front of Su Yingjian as usual, but turned around and faced the wall behind him, leaving the back of his head to the people in the room.

Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Gu Xu and Fu Dao, and no one noticed anything unusual about Luo Dao.

Su Yingjian saw Fu Dao's face clearly and was a little uncertain for a moment. After he confirmed the man's identity, he finally stood up excitedly: "Uncle Fu!"

"Xiao Jian." Fu Dao said.

He looked at the back of the head behind Su Yingjian and sneered.

However, he did not deal with Luo Dao, an old friend from many years ago, for the time being, but turned to Gu Xu: "Do you trust these two people?"

Gu Xu said: "It's not trust, I just want to tell him what the Su family did back then."

Su Yingjian opened his eyes wide.

Only then did he realize what the appearance of Fu Dao meant.

Fu Dao, one of the guards who followed Su Huaiyue to Yunxi, was also her most trusted subordinate. In the years since Su Huaiyue's death, Su Muhua seemed to have been looking for the whereabouts of Su Huaiyue's subordinates. After all, the files were vague about what happened back then, and even the identity of the person who died in the family was not identified.

Fu Dao will be here, that means...

"Back then, Huaiyue asked me to go back to Luoyang to deliver a letter, and it was Su Muying who met me personally." Fu Dao went straight to the point, "I handed the letter to him and left in a hurry. I thought the Su family would lend a helping hand, but what I waited for was a butcher's knife."

"What?! What butcher knife? Uncle Fu, explain it clearly." Su Yingjian shouted.

Fu Dao said: "That day, I met Su Muying and handed over the letter, and Su Muying opened it on the spot."

"After reading the letter, he pondered for a long time and asked me if I knew the contents of the letter. I naturally said I didn't know." Fu Dao said, "Maybe he didn't bring any reliable people with him at the time and was not 100% sure that he could save my life, so I walked out of the Su family's door."

"Then what the letter says is..." Su Yingjian seemed to understand.

"The letter is Huaiyue's request for help." Fu Dao said, "It's not like what Su Muying said. Su Huaiyue asked them not to interfere in this matter... Hey, now you know what kind of place the Su family is?"

Su Yingjian's eyes went dark.

"At that time, it was Lin Fu, who was still in the Dali Temple, who was in charge of investigating this matter. He had a good personal relationship with the Su family." Gu Xu said, "I asked Lin Fu, and he said that the emperor's words implied that this matter was an accident and he wanted to let it go. He couldn't disobey the emperor's order, so he wrote the file hastily, but left some loopholes in it."

Gu Xu continued, "But he privately investigated the matter in detail and thought there was a fraud, so he took the case file back to Luoyang and wanted to explain the matter to Su Muying. Unfortunately, Su Muying didn't seem to care about the truth. Lin Fu felt that the matter was not simple, so he sealed the case file in the Dali Temple's case file library."

"Later, I got it." said Gu Xu.

Su Yingjian stared blankly at their opening and closing mouths, seeming to be greatly shocked.

Fu Dao said, "What happened back then was not self-immolation, but outright murder. The case file only showed some strangeness, but the evidence Gu Dashi brought back from the ruins of Yunxi completely confirmed this. The Su family that you see as loving and caring is actually a den of wolves that eats people without leaving any bones."

Although he was a disciple of Shen Daofeng, he had not returned for many years and had long been expelled from the sect. Now that he was scolding the Su family, he naturally had no psychological burden.

Fu Dao turned around and looked at Luo Dao, who had his back to everyone. "Boy, what about you?"

The knife fell and his back stiffened.

“…Brother,” he said resignedly, turning around slowly.

"Answer me." Fu Dao's face was gloomy.

"Of course, I put Su Yingjian first in everything." Luo Dao smiled, "I'll listen to whatever he says."

Fu Dao's eyes swept between the two of them.

Su Yingjian murmured, "Are you telling the truth? Uncle Fu, my uncle really..."

"Really." Fu Dao said, "Zhou Qiong, the guard of Huaiyue's family, was rescued from the dungeon of the Su family."

Su Yingjian opened his eyes wide, then became dejected again: "That dungeon really belongs to the Su family. What on earth does he want to do?"

"This is inevitable." Luo Dao did speak. He and Fu Dao did not show any signs of reuniting after a long separation. Now was not the right time. "The Su family is too prosperous. It is so prosperous that it cannot take a step back. What Su Muying seeks... is naturally to take a step further."

"But this is not a reason to harm family members!" Su Yingjian shouted, "Little aunt... they doted on little aunt so much, but in the end they still killed her. Why?! Why couldn't they save someone like little aunt and then deal with her slowly? Even if they could just stand by and watch, why did they kill her?"

Luo Dao remained silent, he was unable to answer this question.

Fu Dao said: "Perhaps, Su Muying and others never took Su Huaiyue seriously."

There was silence in the room for a while.

Fu Dao knew it. The Su family's contempt for Su Huaiyue was not revealed in her food, clothing, housing and transportation, but in every detail of every day.

He never listened to her opinions, always treated her interests and hobbies as if they were just a child playing around, and never seriously examined every achievement she made.

The Su family has always been like this, and even the old tutor Su, who is said to love her only daughter the most, still condones Su Muying's choice of the most direct and cruel method.

Just because they looked down on Su Huaiyue.

In Su Muying's heart, this sister has never been qualified to be compared with herself.
