After rebirth and marriage, the sick prince is fine again

The third prince sat in the study, frowning, looking at the map in his hand and asked.

"What is the current situation in Gutian County?"

The emperor has been paying attention to all the big and small things happening in Gutian County. He didn't say anything on the surface, but he was actually observing secretly.

The secret guard stood silently behind him, his expression extremely serious and his tone of voice cold.

"The situation is extremely complicated at the moment. The underground casinos are leaderless and everyone is a bit agitated. They seem to want to run away with the money."

Before, there were officials who were in control, so at least they could behave themselves. But now all the officials have been beheaded.

Naturally, they were also a little worried about whether they would end up like them.

The third prince had an extremely heavy expression on his face. He slowly lowered his brows, sat in the middle of the seat, took out paper and pen, and wrote a letter in it.

"Send this letter to Shen Rujun as soon as possible, and we will set off for Gutian County tomorrow."

It was not a good idea to drag it on like this, so the secret guard took the secret letter and then turned around and left.

……

At this time in Gutian County, Shen Rujun gathered many guards and deliberately announced that he would invite an enlightened monk to go to the mansions of each official to perform rituals to pray for their souls every day.

Gu Yanan had heard about this, but he had no intention of stopping it, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Let him do what he wants to do. I want to see what tricks he has in mind."

Everyone just thought that there was nothing unusual about him, but he was the one who did all these things.

Shen Rujun's residence was also burned to ashes. He had been staying in the government office for the past few days. He was busy until very late every day and then came back slowly.

I came back very early today and sat at my seat early in the morning. There was a table full of food prepared on it.

Seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Su Jinhua's eyes. He slowly stepped forward and asked softly.

"How come we have time to get together today?"

Everyone has been very busy these days. In addition to the officials' affairs, going up the mountain to drink water is also urgent.

Gu Yanan didn't say anything, but just sat silently beside him, his eyes fixed on Shen Rujun's face, as if he didn't know what to do.

Shen Rujun felt quite helpless and immediately blurted out his current thoughts.

"The deaths of several officials are really too strange. I am always worried that there may be some injustice. In the past few days, I have found some Taoist priests and asked them to come and pray for their souls to be reborn."

This was a good deed and they had no reason to refuse.

Gu Yanan slowly put down the teacup in his hand, with a faint smile on his face, and nodded immediately.

"You did a good job on this matter. We didn't think about it as carefully as you did. How about leaving it to you to take charge for the time being?"

After settling them down, these people naturally didn't care much about their emotions and naturally didn't respond much.

Shen Rujun seemed to want this result, but he let out a sigh of pretended worry and immediately nodded in agreement.

"I was a little worried that you might disagree. Since you all agree, I will arrange it after a while."

The few people had a lukewarm meal. Everyone had their own thoughts, but none of them revealed their worries.

Shen Rujun returned to the study, and as soon as he sat down, the guard handed him a secret letter and placed it on the table.

"The Third Prince wrote this himself. Master Shen had better read it now."

His expression was extremely serious. The situation in Kyoto must be quite complicated and the current situation was not optimistic.

Shen Rujun opened the envelope in his hand, had made up his mind, and nodded slowly.

"I have already taken care of the underground casino. Now I am afraid that these shop assistants are not honest. I am afraid that I can't control them."

Originally, the relatives of these officials were all arranged in this underground casino. It would be extremely difficult to catch them all now.

The guard didn't seem to know how to respond. He didn't say anything and just stood there silently.

The scene in the underground casino at this moment was extremely chaotic. It used to be filled with smoke, but now it has become a deserted place.

"There has been no business in these days. Why don't we just take the money in the warehouse and divide it up and leave?"

There was a clerk standing in the crowd and speaking directly, with something in his mind.

Some people around immediately expressed their opinions and nodded in agreement. Everyone was extremely excited, as if this rebellion had been premeditated.

"All these officials have died one by one. This must be retribution. We have done so many evil things and oppressed the people. We can't do this any longer."

It would be fine if there was someone looking after them, but now there is no one around, let alone the issue of how to manage the money.

The store manager couldn't make up his mind for a moment, but his expression was still extremely serious. He slapped the table heavily and frowned.

"Shut up, everyone. If this is so easy, why can't I let you brothers go?"

Although he didn't know who the big shot above him was, he had some vague guesses in his mind that it would not be so easy for them to escape.

Everyone listened to the store manager very much, and when they heard this, no one dared to speak.

Liu Dashan also stood up in time, looking at everyone's expressions, and seemed to be worried in his heart.

"Although some of these words may sound unpleasant, no one is watching over us now. We can run away with the money and no one will know. If we stay here and someone investigates us one day, we will all be killed."

Although they are children from ordinary families, they just want to never let others know what they have done, otherwise they will never be able to turn over a new leaf in their lives.

Everyone immediately became extremely angry, with indignation and subconscious resistance revealed on everyone's face.

"Why are we still here? No one is paying us. We are just working like slaves for others. We might as well take the money and run away. At least we can still be alive."

Although they didn't know how much money there was, they knew that if they took the money, they would never have to worry about survival again in their lives.

The store manager did not agree immediately. He was still hesitant and shook his head slowly before speaking.

"Let me think about it for a night. I'll tell you all when I've figured it out. Why don't you wait for me?"

They have always had a very harmonious relationship. Over the years, they have gone through all the ups and downs, and they listen to him.

After waiting for everyone to leave, Liu Dashan sighed, put his hands behind his back, and then spoke frankly.

"Manager, there is no future for you to stay here, you might as well leave immediately. Besides, you have elderly parents and young children to take care of. If something happens to you, what will you do? You have to think about the elderly at home."

The store manager frowned, sat in his seat, and shook his head slowly.

“You don’t understand.”
