on carriage

Old Marquis Gu glanced at Gu Jue, who closed his eyes as soon as he entered the carriage, and asked curiously, "Aren't you curious?"

"What are you curious about? Isn't that why you gave me the clothes bestowed by the emperor?" Gu Jue didn't even open his eyes.

Well, Gu Jue’s words directly choked Old Marquis Gu.

After thinking about it, he decided to let it go. The matter ended perfectly and he was in a good mood. Adults are magnanimous and don’t argue with children.

Afterwards, Lord Gu seriously told Gu Jue about the official business that Lord Gu Yuan needed to handle.

"We in the Gu family are military marquises, and we have our own cavalry. Back then..."

Before Lord Gu could start showing off, he was interrupted by Gu Jue coldly, "Speak to the point."

The words that Old Marquis Gu had not yet spoken were choked in his throat.

Old Marquis Gu looked at Gu Jue who looked annoyed and muttered quietly, "Unfilial descendants."

Then, he said seriously: "Some of the cavalry of the Marquis' Mansion are now in the military camp outside the city, and a small part is stationed on the border."

"Yanjing is the location of the imperial city. It is guarded only by our Gu family's cavalry and the Qin family's army of the Zhenguogong Mansion. You must remember that no matter what you deal with, you must not have a direct conflict with the Qin family's army. The Qin family's army will also avoid conflicts with our Gu family's cavalry."

"The most important reason why our Gu family and their Qin family can leave troops stationed outside the imperial city is because our two families have always been pure imperial factions, subordinate to the emperor, and only obey the orders of the current emperor. You must remember this."

Hearing this, Gu Jue sneered and said playfully: "Pure imperial faction? Ha! Your son is not pure."

Speaking of Gu Yuanhou, the old Marquis Gu's face also froze, "I will take care of him."

"You will need to visit the barracks frequently in the future. You don't have to go every day, but there are official duties to be handled in the barracks. You should go at least once every two days."

"Also, His Majesty will sometimes send the Gu family or the Qin family to handle some unnecessary things. When the time comes, you must handle it perfectly without any mistakes."

"Something that doesn't need to happen?" She was a little curious about this.

Lord Gu coughed and said, "You will know then that these things must be kept secret."

"Also, the Spring Hunt and the Autumn Hunt must be guarded by our Gu family's cavalry and the Imperial Guards. This is of utmost importance, and there must not be any mistakes."

The more I listened to Gu Jue, the more annoyed I became. Why were there so many things going on?!

Gu Jue simply closed his eyes and rested. By the time old Marquis Gu finished speaking, they were almost at the Marquis' Mansion.

"By the way, what's the matter with the private soldiers?"

Seeing that they were about to arrive at the Marquis' Mansion, Gu Dezhong was no longer so irritable. He looked at Old Marquis Gu and said casually:

"How should I know? They are not my private soldiers. Why are you asking me?"

Old Marquis Gu's face was heavy. "Can you handle it? The Gu family must not have private soldiers. This is a disaster."

Gu Jue was speechless. What did the Gu family’s disaster have to do with her? She could leave at any time.

However, thinking about the unfinished business in Yanjing, Gu Jue sighed, "I only know it's in Lingchuan, I still need to find out where it is exactly. Or, you can just ask your son, he's the one who raised you, just ask him."

She actually wanted to know about this matter a little bit, and had sent people to Lingchuan to investigate before, but she didn't find any information. Marquis Gu Yuan and the Third Prince hid these private soldiers too well, and there was no clue at all.

These private soldiers in her previous life were unforgivable, so she had to get rid of them in advance in this life to prevent the same things that happened in her previous life from happening again.

Thinking of the blood all over the ground in his previous life, a hint of bloodlust flashed in Gu Jue's eyes.

She wants to take back the lives of all the people in the village in her previous life, as well as her own life, and she doesn't mind slaughtering them again.

Later in her previous life, when she heard the bad news from the village, she immediately rushed to the village. However, by then, there was only blood flowing like a river, and no one was left alive. Thinking of Uncle Feng who was disfigured beyond recognition, the mother-in-law who was wantonly slaughtered, and the villagers, Gu Jue's eyes were bloodshot.

That group of people were so arrogant that they didn't even try to erase their traces, so she found them easily.

But at that time, she was no longer conscious and only remembered the blood all over the city.

After that, she came back.

Old Lord Gu, who was sitting next to Gu Jue, sensed the change in Gu Jue's aura at the first moment.

The originally indifferent and mysterious aura instantly turned gloomy and dark, even with a hint of bloodlust.

"Gu Jue." A deep voice sounded beside his ears, and Gu Jue came back to his senses. He calmed down and responded in a hoarse voice, "Yeah."

Seeing that Gu Jue still didn't open his eyes, but his aura seemed to have subsided. Old Marquis Gu said no more, and said solemnly: "I will ask clearly."

"Yeah." Gu Jue responded casually.

She actually felt a little uncomfortable in her head and had a splitting headache.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the mansion, and Gu Jue got off the carriage without waiting for anyone and went into the mansion. The old Marquis Gu, who was a little behind, looked at Gu Jue's back in surprise, wondering if there was a treasure in the mansion, why he ran so fast.
