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

Chapter 67 The hero's heart, a needle in the sea

Yu Weishuang left.

Wu Feng looked at Gu Xu, and when he spoke, he abruptly turned his gaze back to Gu Yue. He still remembered that Gu Yue was the boss on the surface: "Then how do they deal with it?"

Gu Yue looked at Gu Xu, and Gu Xu also looked at Gu Yue.

After their eyes met for a while, Gu Yue understood: There are outsiders nearby so the decision should be made by Dad.

He then asked: "Where is the Qingxu Temple?"

"It's near Taiqing Palace, and all the people living there are Taoist nuns." Wu Feng replied.

"On the way? Then let Miss Yu's convoy follow, and we will escort her to Qingxu Temple." Gu Yue said.

Then Wu Feng looked at Gu Xu secretly.

Gu Xu said nothing, but his eyes were unfriendly.

"Give her some more silver from my private property. I'll go get it." Gu Yue planned to give the girl a hundred taels. Although it was not enough, it was a token of his thoughtfulness.

He couldn't afford to give more as he still had to run his own business and purchase goods.

"No need." Gu Xu grabbed him, with no expression on his face, but Gu Yue could see two words: unhappy.

What's wrong? I'm spending money on my future daughter-in-law, why are you unhappy?

"Afeng, lend her one thousand taels in the name of the martial arts school." Gu Xu said, and he really no longer called him brother.

"it is good……"

"What's so good about it! How can you do things like this?" Gu Yue was very disappointed with the man. Although it was okay to lend him money, it was better to give it for free.

Gu Xu looked at him.

"Then, you can say that I gave her the one thousand taels to keep for her. I'll consider this money as a loan, and I'll pay you back when I have money in the future." Gu Yue patted Wu Feng's shoulder, his heart bleeding.

One hundred taels turned into one thousand taels!

But this is considered an investment. In the future, based on this money, the heroine will treat him, a cannon fodder, better.

It's like providing timely assistance.

Gu Xu's face was long.

Wu Feng saw that both of them were looking at him. Gu Yue's eyes were earnest. Master...why doesn't he look so happy?

I understand, I am the master's confidant, I understand!

"No need. Just put the money into the martial arts school's account. It's our duty to help those in need when we see injustice. I'll go now." Wu Feng walked away with a smile, not noticing Gu Xu's sharp eyes at all.

What a nice guy! Gu Yue was very happy and watched Wu Feng's back.

His hands were empty, and the handkerchief he was using to wipe Yu Weishuang's tears was roughly pulled away.

Gu Yue looked over and saw that Gu Xu left him with a head and got on the carriage.

He also wanted to get in the car, but when he thought of the series of questions he had been asked before being interrupted by Yu Weishuang, he suddenly gave up.

Gu Xu waited in the car for a while, but didn't see Gu Yue get in, so he took a deep breath in anger.

He can't walk when he sees a beautiful girl. He hands her a handkerchief and gives her money. Don't you think that he is old enough to be her father?

This... useless guy! Overestimating him!

Not long after, the convoy continued on its way.

King Yin's men took the corpses away, and the blood soaked in the mud and disappeared without a trace in a few days.

Gu Yue was still sitting in the front of the car looking at the scenery. He didn't see the tragic scenes of the dead, otherwise he would have been a little frightened. But hearing about someone's death was different from seeing it with one's own eyes, so Gu Yue didn't feel any burden and quickly recovered.

The martial arts hall's secret guards, however, seemed to have received some signal and did not hide too much in front of Gu Yue. In fact, in front of him, Gu Yue saw Wu Huo dragging several tightly bound and gagged men in black into Gu Xu's carriage.

They were far away and the voices were low, so Gu Yue pricked up his ears but heard nothing.

But we can infer. The purpose of arresting those killers is to get the specific details of this operation, such as the ultimate purpose and the mastermind behind it. According to Gu Yue, they are more likely to kill people to silence them than to win them over. Who would win over people and bring so many killers?

Although he did not see the specific situation, he heard the dense footsteps, and the secret guards around him looked very nervous.

If it was a murder, then the possibility that the mastermind behind it was the third prince was not very high.

Who would reveal their identity before killing someone? He even emphasized this and sent his most iconic aide to do the deed.

Qin Zhaoning might be able to do such a stupid thing, but Wen Qing would never do it.

Then Wen Qing, who was shot dead by Gu Xu with an arrow, was also a counterfeit product.

What's the purpose of this big fuss?

What is so special about Gu Xu?

……

Qin Zhaoning sneezed violently.

"Damn it, someone is secretly insulting this prince!" he cursed.

"Maybe it's just a cold." Wen Qing handed over a handkerchief.

Qin Zhaoning blew his nose hard and threw his handkerchief into the trash can.

"Are you telling the truth?" Qin Zhaoning asked the servant kneeling on the ground.

"Your Highness, it's true." The servant lowered his head, "My uncles and brothers are servants cleaning the Su Mansion. They heard Master Su San talking to the old tutor through the window..."

"Your Highness." The counselor Liu Fei who was standing on the side immediately bowed.

"Well, you can go down. This prince has never heard of this." Qin Zhaoning waved his hand casually, and the servant left in fear and trepidation.

The maids who were serving around also retreated.

"You say." Qin Zhaoning raised his chin.

Liu Fei said: "If this is true, then there is an explanation for the prince's secret departure from the capital a few days ago. He probably did it for the grandson of the Su family."

"...In the end, he was ambushed and his two trusted aides died, and I have to bear the consequences?!" Qin Zhaoning was so angry that he shouted, "Qin Zhaoyue is such an idiot!"

"Don't be angry, Your Highness." Wen Qing said lightly.

"Your Highness, this is an opportunity for us." Liu Fei said immediately: "Everyone knows that Old Master Su treasures his only daughter the most. His daughter's bloodline is lost outside. If she is brought back, I'm afraid the old master will be partial to her. If we can get this child's support, our great cause will be more powerful."

"That makes sense..." Qin Zhaoning touched his chin.

"No." Wen Qing said.

"Well, what do you think, Mr. Wen?" Liu Fei asked. He particularly disliked this man.

"The Su family is a major threat to the emperor. It is not a good thing to get involved with the Su family rashly." Wen Qing said.

"Even the prince is trying to win us over, are we just going to sit there and wait for death?!" Liu Fei frowned.

"We don't have to sit and wait for death. Just look at the fact that the Crown Prince's actions this time were ineffective. We know that there is another force behind the scenes, which may have discovered the existence of the Su family's grandson earlier than the Crown Prince." Wen Qing said, "And they took advantage of this incident to deal with the Crown Prince and us at the same time."

"Who is this person?" Liu Fei found it difficult to refute and even thought deeply about it.

"We need the details of the prince's assassination to infer more." Wen Qing said.

Qin Zhaoning touched the armrest of the chair, deep in thought.

"Your Highness?" Liu Fei called him.

"I heard it. What do you think?" Qin Zhaoning asked. "What I mean is... the enemy is in the dark. If we act rashly, we may fall into a trap."

"Indeed..." Wen Qing said.

Suddenly, there was a noisy voice outside the door, and a servant came in hurriedly. Before he knelt down at Qin Zhaoning's feet, he heard a eunuch outside shouting: "The emperor's oral order--"
