Gu Xunwei nodded soothingly. The court physician also came over at this time, so Gu Xunwei left Chenxiang here to continue taking care of Su, and she took Baizhi out.

While she was comforting Su, her own mind was also constantly thinking, and now she has a rough guess.

Zhu Da was still waiting outside the corridor. When he saw the two of them coming out, he quickly took two steps forward and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Miss, my voice was too loud."

"It's okay, just come closer, we are about to take action." Gu Xunwei said to the brother and sister.

Zhu Da and Bai Zhi looked at each other and leaned forward together.

The three of them exchanged some words, and then Zhu Da and Bai Zhi left Mingde Hall. Gu Xunwei walked back and forth outside the corridor, and then she wanted to go out, but she was still a little worried about Su.

So he went back into the hall, gave Su some serious instructions, and then left in a hurry.

Gu Xunwei's guess was almost right. She thought these people should be related to Gu Qiongsi, who was still in jail. By the way, Xie Chengan and Hu Er, who had some relationship with her, were also in jail. So, the only person who could take action was Prince An Li Junze.

As for why Prince An wanted to take action against the Gu family, it was probably because he was instigated by Gu Qiongsi. As for why, she didn't know yet. However, knowing who they were, it should be easier to deal with.

In the Li Mansion next door, Gu Xunwei calculated one by one the people who Li Junhao left in the mansion before he left, plus the people that Zhu Da went to the Dali Temple to look for, and the bodyguards of the Nanhai Escort Agency who were protecting the Gu Mansion according to his father's instructions, and her heart was slightly relieved.

As for Gu Ziyu, Gu Xunwei was not too worried. After all, she had hired the best escorts for her father this time. The fact that they had time to reply to her meant that the situation should not be too bad.

She returned to Xunxiang Courtyard, put on a veil on her head, and then went directly to Chuihua Gate. Outside the gate, more than a dozen servants gathered by Zhu Da were already waiting there.

Gu Xunwei thought that in broad daylight, even if the other party was Prince An, he would not dare to break into people's homes, burn, kill and rob in the capital, so he sent someone to send a message to lead herself and her mother out of the capital, waiting for an opportunity to act.

She would not let them have their way, and only left four guards at the door to guard the front door. All the others retreated and scattered around Mingde Hall, surrounding it like an iron barrel. Even if they came, they would definitely not get anything good.

After arranging these things, Gu Xunwei and Zhu Da went to meet the person who came to deliver the message.

The man looked like an honest farmer in his fifties. When he saw them come in, he put down his teacup with a nervous look on his face, stood up, rubbed his hands together, and didn't know what to say.

Zhu Da said, "Master, don't be nervous. This is my young lady. She has something to ask you."

The man listened carefully, nodded repeatedly, and then looked at Gu Xunwei who was wearing a veil.

"Where did you see my father?"

"Oh, the carriage was broken apart on the official road near Shimen Village in the southern suburbs of the capital. Oh, by the way, Master Gu asked me to take this out, and you will definitely believe it."

As the man spoke, he seemed to remember something and took out a handkerchief from his bosom.

There was a cluster of orchids embroidered on the handkerchief, which was beautiful and elegant. It was the handkerchief embroidered by Su herself, Gu Ziyu's handkerchief.

Gu Xunwei took the handkerchief, looked at it carefully, and then asked nervously, "How is my father? Is he seriously injured?"

"It should be fine, but his leg seems to be broken and he can't walk, so I asked this old man to come over and tell you to send someone to pick him up."

"There were two other people who went with my father. Why didn't they come back?"

"One of them went to Shimen Village to find a doctor, and the other one needed to serve Master Gu. I happened to pass by there, so... Oh, if you delay any longer, Master Gu will be worried."

The man started to get anxious after answering two questions. It had been a while since he came to the mansion to deliver the message, but why was Mr. Gu's daughter still asking questions so slowly?

"Don't worry, old man. I'll ask clearly before I bring the doctor and the herbs over," Gu Xunwei stared at the changes in the man's facial expression through the veil. It seemed that his face just now showed not only anxiety, but also murderous intent.

"Was my father injured in the left leg or the right leg? Or in both legs?"

That person saw that Miss Gu's actions seemed to deviate from their plan, or it should be said that they did not do what they had guessed at all.

I became even more anxious, and I was in no mood to answer questions honestly. I just kept urging him,

"Miss Gu, I was in a hurry to deliver the letter, so I didn't check these carefully. Now that the letter has been delivered, I will take my leave now."

He didn't believe that Miss Gu didn't care about her father's safety at all. Maybe after he left, they would be eager to look for Mr. Gu in person.

When Zhu Da saw him like this, he immediately blocked the other person with his tall body, but he sighed in his heart that the young lady's guess was right, there was something wrong with this guy.

"Uncle, we have packed everything. My mother and I will go with you now. Please lead the way, uncle."

Gu Xunwei finally spoke, and asked him to take them mother and daughter together, which was exactly the action they had guessed at the beginning.

"Well, okay, let's get going quickly." The man urged again anxiously.

Gu Xunwei nodded and came to the gate of the Gu Mansion with them. Two carriages had been arranged here, one was a carriage with the Gu Mansion logo, and the other was an ordinary carriage.

The man watched Gu Xunwei helping a woman who also wore a veil and got into the marked carriage together. Zhu Da then invited him to get into the ordinary carriage.

Then, the two carriages rumbled towards Liuzhou.

When leaving the city gate, the man stretched his neck to look at the carriage in front of him, and found that he could faintly hear the soft crying of a woman coming from the carriage.

The man's heart gradually calmed down. He thought that he had taken this risk and was lucky enough to have accomplished his mission successfully.

As long as you reach the location they specify, you can get your money.

Zhu Da was standing aside, watching the man's increasingly relaxed expression, and couldn't help but laugh. He wondered where they got the courage to do such a thing in broad daylight.
