Gu Yue thought a lot in the carriage.

His mind kept recalling what happened that night, the glaring pool of blood, and the crazy Qin Zhaoyue, all of which made him feel a tightness in his chest.

What exactly is Qin Zhaoyue thinking?

Gu Yue thought this was easy to infer. He probably wanted to ask for help from his subordinates who had not yet been liquidated, or he had other plans. He also guessed that Lu Tianyun and him, the "guy who looked like Gu Dashi", were Gu Xu's spies, so he wanted to kill them first and then go on his own.

in this case……

Qin Zhaoyue talked so much to him at that time, probably because he wanted to lure him forward so that he could control him with that mysterious poison and then kill him.

It’s just that he didn’t know "Gu Dashi" well enough and didn’t know what words would anger him, until he mentioned the Gu family that was wiped out.

Gu Yue thought that the bowl on the ground misled him. He thought that the poison needed to be taken orally to be effective, so he approached it rashly, or maybe the soul of Gu Dashi that was attached to him at that time had an impact on him.

In short, that night was really dangerous. The wound on his chest and abdomen was almost an inch deep and it still hurts.

If it weren't for Gu Dashi, he would probably have died here.

Unexpectedly, it was Gu Dashi who saved his life in the end, so they even owed each other nothing.

It seems that until now, he still cannot say who is absolutely good and absolutely evil.

Everyone has his own path.

Gu Yue thought that he probably understood what the Taoist meant.

……

I slept for a few hours in the carriage, and finally, about two or three days later, I heard some unusual noises around me.

It was probably a town - from the shouting coming from outside the carriage, it could be heard that the town was quite large and the people there spoke Mandarin, so it should be an area close to Luoyang.

Gu Yue was thinking wildly: Could it be that Wen Qing wanted to send him to Gu Xu?

Haha, how is that possible!

Although he does look a bit like Gu Dashi, it's just a bit. Unless you heard his last conversation with the prince, no one would connect the two of them together.

Moreover, won’t Wen Qing’s men be discovered if they follow Wumen and then the prince?

but……

The more Gu Yue thought about it, the more scared he became.

Could it be that Gu Xu has some hobby of collecting Gu Dashi's peripherals, wanting to create a Wan Wan Lei Qing?

Gu Xu is definitely not that kind of person!

But Wen Qing doesn't look like someone who would do such a thing.

No, no, we have to start from Wen Qing’s own purpose. Wen Qing…

Gu Yue's mind was a mess.

What happened to Wen Qing before? He actually had a vague memory.

The surroundings became quiet again, and they must have left the market street. Before Gu Yue had time to listen carefully to the noise, the carriage stopped.

There seemed to be someone talking outside, but the voice was very low.

The curtain of the carriage was pulled open, and someone grabbed the rope behind him and lifted him up. He was no longer as heavy as Gu Dashi, so it was easy to pull him up.

No one spoke, but Gu Yue could feel that there were many people around him, and they were all looking at him. He felt awkward and nervous, and could only try to keep a straight face.

After a moment, the person who caught him carried Gu Yue on his shoulders and walked forward.

After walking for a while, the surroundings became dark again. Gu Yue felt that he was placed on a bed. The smell around him was very familiar, as if...

The ropes on my hands were untied.

Gu Yue lay stiffly for a while, and finally came to his senses. He reached out to take off the cloth ball and the blindfold. The light in the room was dim, but it was still a bit dazzling to him. He relaxed for a while before opening his eyes.

I grass!

The person standing in front of me was Wu Yan.

Wu Yan looked at him expressionlessly.

"It does look alike." Wu Yan said, "Do you have anything to say?"

Gu Yue was silent for a moment: "Where is this?"

"Dunxin Marquis's Mansion." Wu Yan said, "You are calmer than I thought."

Gu Yue was silent.

He had no intention of putting on an act, nor did he intend to reveal his identity to them. After all, he had already seen the red silk lanterns outside through the half-open window.

"Do you know why we brought you here?" Wu Yan said.

"I don't know." Gu Yue replied, "Why?"

Wu Yan seemed to glance towards the door, then sat down on the stool in front of the window and said seriously, "Who are you? Why are you hanging out with the prince of Northern Qin?"

Gu Yue pondered for a moment, then chose an answer that was not a lie: "I came from the mountains of Chanzhou, and on the way I met a man named Chen Song who was seriously injured. I saved him and brought him to Luoyang, and then we separated."

"Later, when I left Luoyang, I met Chen Song again on the road with a man... They did not hide anything from me, and I learned that Chen Song's real name was Lu Tianyun, and the man next to him was Qin Zhaoyue, the crown prince of Northern Qin."

"Why don't you report to the authorities?" Wu Yan asked.

"What does this have to do with me? Why should I report it to the police?" Gu Yue asked back.

"It has nothing to do with you, so why are you following them around?" Wu Yan said in a deep voice.

"...The man who claimed to be the prince invited me warmly. As for me, I travel around without a fixed place to go. I thought that the place where the prince was going must be full of fun, so I agreed." Gu Yue said.

He actually wanted to help Gu Xu see if this person had any other conspiracy...

Unexpectedly, his plan was disrupted.

Wu Yan stared at him closely, not knowing what he saw, and asked, "Did you kill the Crown Prince and Lu Tianyun?"

Gu Yue had no intention of hiding it: "No, Lu Tianyun was killed by the prince."

"Why?" Wu Yan was also obviously stunned.

"...From what he said, he probably suspected that Lu Tianyun was colluding with a man named Gu Xu." Gu Yue looked at Wu Yan's face, "Lu Tianyun claimed that he had been detained for three years, but Qin Zhaoyue didn't believe it and thought he had been bribed."

Wu Yan frowned.

He didn't even see any expected reaction on the face of the man in front of him.

"Then, why did Qin Zhaoyue die?"

"Qin Zhaoyue believed that I was also in the same group, but his reasoning was illogical. I suspect he was already crazy at the time." Gu Yue said, "He must have used something to poison Lu Tianyun and then attacked him. He wanted to do the same to me, but I killed him instead."

"How did you do it?" Wu Yan asked.

"I don't remember." Gu Yue said frankly.

Wu Yan nodded slightly. He then said, "During this period of time, you should stay at the Duke Dunxin's residence and don't walk around."

"How long will I stay?" Gu Yue asked.

Wu Yan stood up, his serious face now had a hint of a smile on it: "After our master's wedding, you can leave."

Gu Yue's heart seemed to skip a beat.

Before he could say anything to Wu Yan, Wu Yan had already walked out of the room and hung the padlock outside.
