Hearing this, Gu Zhao nodded.

"You're right. I've already given in many times. Now that I can't stand it any longer, I don't have to stand it any longer."

In the past, the Qin Hou Mansion had been low-key and tolerant, but the emperor never let the Qin Hou Mansion off. They were under surveillance and targeted in various ways, and Qin Chen was almost poisoned to death.

Now that I can no longer tolerate it, I don’t need to tolerate it anymore.

Gu Zhao thought of Father Yun again. If Father Yun had not been so tolerant before, could he have saved his life, as well as the lives of the Yun brothers.

Gu Zhao thought of Yun Zhaoyi again and asked.

"How's Big Brother?"

When Qin Chen heard Gu Zhao call him "big brother", he was stunned for a moment before he realized who his wife was talking about.

"It will take him another six months to recover. He is recuperating now."

Hearing this, Gu Zhao nodded.

Half a year will pass quickly.

"Will he come back then?"

After asking this question, Gu Zhao felt a little stupid. In the eyes of the world, his eldest brother had already died in battle, and now he was disfigured. He must not appear in public again. Moreover, his eldest brother and several other brothers were now investigating the death of Father Yun in battle.

"Don't worry, we have everything. If there is anything, I will tell you..."

Qin Chen smiled and kissed Gu Zhao, then stood up and opened the door.

Hong'er and Lu'er were guarding the door.

Qin Chen looked at Gu Zhao and said.

"I'll go out and take a look. You rest in your room."

Gu Zhao nodded.

Qin Shiyi stood at the door with several guards, all holding swords in their hands.

Gu Zhao looked at Qin Chen's back, and she was still a little worried.

Half an hour later, Qin Chen came back.

"Have all the assassins been caught?"

"The assassin who escaped committed suicide. The mansion has also been checked and there are no suspicious people..."

Seeing his wife's expression, Qin Chen said again.

"I have checked with my grandmother and mother. They were both asleep and were not awakened. The people from the prefectural government have already gone back after investigating..."

Gu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that his grandmother and mother-in-law were both asleep and not awakened.

"Aunt and the others in the mansion are all safe, right?"

"No injuries."

Qin Chen hugged Gu Zhao, put his hand on her belly, and said with a smile.

"It's cold, I'll warm your belly."

Gu Zhao's period has come. She has been soaking her feet and drinking some brown sugar water for the past two days, and Qin Chen will cover her belly with his hands.

In the morning, the emperor heard about the assassination at Qinhou Mansion.

"Your Majesty, our people ran into those assassins when they went there, and two of our people were killed or injured..."

The emperor frowned.

"How were they discovered? Who are those assassins?"

"In reply to the emperor, the prince of Qin has reported to the authorities, and the people in the prefectural government are investigating..."

The emperor originally suspected that Qin Chen was deliberately targeting the spy he sent. When he heard that Qin Chen had reported to the authorities, he put aside his suspicion. If it was Qin Chen, he would not dare to report to the authorities. Otherwise, his secret guards and the people in the prefectural government would definitely find out what was going on.

Would Qin Chen know that he had been sending people to keep an eye on the Qinhou Mansion all these years?

The emperor thought of Prince Chen again. Over the years, he had indeed not discovered any collusion between the Marquis Qin Mansion and Prince Chen, but Prince Chen had kept it a secret so well that the emperor had not been able to find Prince Chen's whereabouts over the years, which made him even angrier.

There must be someone secretly helping Xiao Jingchen. Who is it? If he finds out who helped Xiao Jingchen, he will definitely kill all of those people's clans. He will never let these people go.
