The traitor has a white moonlight

The moment Gu Huaisheng saw Yuan Bo's body, his hands clenched into fists.Pausing his steps slightly and taking a deep breath, Gu Huaisheng clenched his cheeks and strode over.

"Master..." Guo Ke'er sniffed, ran over first, squatted down and uncovered the white cloth on Uncle Yuan's body, and turned to look at Gu Huaisheng who followed him: "Look, Master! Manfu"

Gu Huaisheng had already seen it the moment the white cloth was uncovered. It was indeed as described by Shell, with a bruised complexion and blackened nails, and at this moment, black blood was overflowing from the eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. There was no need for an autopsy. It can be seen that it is poisoned.

"Master, do you think you should find someone to do..."

Before Guo Ke'er could finish speaking, Gu Huaisheng interrupted her by raising her hand.

Glancing at Guo Ke'er, Gu Huaisheng stepped forward and squatted down, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and wiped off the black blood on Uncle Yuan's face, then gritted his teeth and stood up with his hands on his knees.

"Give it a good burial." Gu Huaisheng closed his eyes and sighed in pain.

"That's it, that's it..." Guo Ke'er couldn't believe it: "Young master, Uncle Yuan died for no reason, that's it, no... don't you want to investigate?"

"Investigate!" Gu Huaisheng's eyes froze, and he said coldly, "Of course we must investigate!"

Not only Yuan Bo is as close as an elder to their brothers, but also the undercurrent hidden behind the incident, which cannot be ignored in the slightest. This matter must not only be investigated, but also carefully and thoroughly investigated!

"But..." Guo Ke'er put the white cloth back on Uncle Yuan, stood up and said, "The national funeral is not over yet, so...wouldn't it be good?"

"I set up a mourning hall with the door behind closed doors, and prepare a good coffin. It's okay to keep a low profile." Gu Huaisheng turned and left: "Guo Keer, I'll leave it up to you to make arrangements for this matter. Find me in the study after you're done."

This means that in the future, Guo Ke'er will be the only one to succeed Uncle Yuan.

For a while, everyone present looked at Guo Ke'er differently, with envy and jealousy, and their expressions were different.It's just that when human life is at stake, no one dares to congratulate, whether they are jealous or envious or happy, but the flattery in their expressions is undisguised.

Guo Ke'er didn't pay attention to those things, and didn't even think about them, but she habitually responded to the master's orders, and then began to get busy, arranging the mourning hall and ordering the coffin, and finally set up the venue until dark .

Uncle Yuan has no heirs, not even a serious one who wears linen to keep his filial piety. In order to keep the mourning hall from being too deserted and desolate, Guo Ke'er ordered a few young people in the mansion to take turns to watch the mourning and burn paper. After arranging these, he It was only then that I was free to go to the study to find Gu Huaisheng.

The door of the study room was ajar, and from the crack in the door, one could see Gu Huaisheng standing in front of the window with his back turned to this side and his hands behind his back.

Guo Ke'er raised her hand to straighten the servant's hat on her head, and was about to knock on the door, when Gu Huaisheng turned around as if she had eyes on her back, her eyes were clear and deep.

"Young Master..." Guo Ke'er's scalp tightened when she was stared at by those eyes, she subconsciously avoided and lowered her head: "The mourning hall has been properly arranged, Uncle Yuan has no descendants, and the slaves made their own decisions. The boy is going to guard the spirit."

"En." Gu Huaisheng replied in a low mood, turned around and walked behind the desk, sat down slowly and said, "Come in."

"Yes." Guo Ke'er pushed the door open, paused for a moment, then lowered his head and entered, stopped not far from the book case three, bent down and asked: "The young master called the servant to come over, but is there any other order?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Huaisheng knew that Guo Ke'er hadn't realized his intention of letting him preside over Zhang Luo at all. Looking at the child's youthful face, he couldn't help sighing.

"Before, Uncle Yuan was taking care of everything in the mansion. He left suddenly and took over in a hurry, so he would inevitably be in a hurry, but you were almost brought up by Uncle Yuan. It shouldn't be difficult to get started." Gu Huaisheng looked at Guo Ke'er in surprise With a bewildered face, the book he picked up was put down again: "There must be a steward to take care of this house, and in the future, you will take over..."

"Young master means..." Guo Ke'er finally came to his senses, interrupted Gu Huaisheng and said, "You want to promote a slave to be the housekeeper of this Gu residence?"

"Yes." Gu Huaisheng raised his eyebrows: "Can you do it well?" Seeing that Guo Ke'er pursed her lips and frowned with a troubled expression on her face, she said angrily, "You should know that I, Gu Huaisheng, don't raise trash by my side."

When Guo Ke'er heard this, she dared not say that she couldn't do it well, so she hurriedly nodded in fright and responded: "I can... I can do it well! Slave, thank you for your support, you must, you must take care of the things in the house, or the young master will be disappointed! "

"Okay, okay, I'll stutter if it's something big." Gu Huaisheng waved his hand: "Also, someone might walk out of the mansion tonight, so that the guards don't have to stop them, just keep an eye on them, don't let them run away Just do it."

"Understood." Guo Ke'er said solemnly: "I'll do it now, slave."

"Wait." Gu Huaisheng called to Guo Ke'er: "Don't make any noise about this matter. Also, tomorrow is the day of the late emperor's funeral, and all civil and military officials will be sent off to the imperial mausoleum. Regarding the funeral of Uncle Yuan, you look at it." Make arrangements, find a good cemetery, don't treat me badly, I will stay alone for a while, and go over to offer incense to him later."

"Yes, I have made it down." Mentioning Uncle Yuan, Guo Ke'er's mood also sank, and she bowed: "Death cannot be brought back to life, young master..."

"Go." Not wanting to hear that, Gu Huaisheng waved his hand to signal Guo Ke'er to go out.

"Yes." Guo Ke'er glanced at Gu Huaisheng: "The slave will leave."

After Guo Ke'er went out, Gu Huaisheng picked up the book again, turned two pages, but couldn't read a single word, and closed it with a sigh.This... the feeling of escaping from control is really too bad. Whether it is the death of Uncle Yuan, or the secret owner of the six-petal lotus, the people behind this are all unexpected existences. One day is a hidden danger.

Gu Huaisheng pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "Come here!"

As soon as the words fell, a maid pushed the door open and entered.

"What orders does Master Sheng have?"

Gu Huaisheng glanced at the maidservant: "Go get Yuan..." Remembering that Uncle Yuan was no longer there, the words that were about to blurt got stuck in his throat, and he said in a deep voice after a while: "Go, call Guo Keer."

"Yes." The servant girl blessed her body, and then retreated out.

After a while, Guo Ke'er went back and forth, opened the door and walked into the study.

"Young Master, are you looking for me?" Guo Ke'er wiped her forehead, panting, obviously she came here.

Gu Huaisheng said: "Find two people to watch Gao Chong and see who he has been in contact with. Once you find suspicious people, report them immediately."

"Gao Chong?" Guo Ke'er was taken aback. He hadn't gone out with Gu Huaisheng for a long time since he got busy, and he didn't know who it was when he heard such a name suddenly.

Seeing his reaction, Gu Huaisheng remembered that Guo Ke'er didn't know this person at all: "Gao Chong, the new head of the Ministry of Officials, just follow this order, and those who go will naturally know what to do."

"Oh." Guo Keer blinked and replied, "Yes."

"Also." Gu Huaisheng looked Guo Keer up and down for a while, and pointed out: "You are now a housekeeper, you have to learn to be mature and stable in everything, and don't be as frizzy as before. , when Mount Tai overwhelms the top, the color does not change, and the thunder blows the head without being surprised, then you can convince the crowd, do you understand?"

Guo Ke'er nodded: "I understand, I must remember the young master's teachings, work hard to improve, strive to become a qualified housekeeper as soon as possible, and never let the young master down."

"Yes." Gu Huaisheng nodded in satisfaction: "Let's step down."

"Yes, the slave will leave." Guo Ke'er saluted Gu Huaisheng in a dignified manner, then imitated Li Yuanbo's usual manner, and retreated calmly.

Gu Huaisheng shook his head when he saw it, but he didn't say anything else. After all, growth requires tempering, and it can't be achieved overnight. Guo Ke'er is astute, and his head is also dexterous. I believe that in time, he should be able to grow into an excellent housekeeper who is comprehensive and calm everywhere.

After dinner, Gu Huaisheng was in a bad mood, and he had to get up early the next day, so he didn't stay up all night. After he went to burn incense for Uncle Yuan, he fell asleep early, but even so, he didn't wake up naturally as he wished. It was Guo Keer who counted the time and called him several times before getting up.

The auspicious time for the first emperor's funeral was Chenshi, but due to the complicated funeral process, all civil and military officials had to enter the palace almost an hour in advance.Gu Huaisheng got up a bit late, afraid of missing the hour, and hurriedly washed up before even having time for breakfast, so he hurried out the door, urging the coachman on his way, at least he caught up with the one who opened the palace gate.

Seeing the palace gates opening little by little, and hundreds of civil and military officials rushing in, Gu Huaisheng hurriedly jumped out of the carriage before the carriage stabilized, trotting to keep up, while holding the crooked official hat, describing how embarrassed he was.

Cha Liangyong walked behind, turned his head and saw Gu Huaisheng couldn't help but twitched his mouth: "Master Gu?"

"The passers-by were delayed by something, but fortunately they caught up." Gu Huaisheng took a breath: "Why is Mr. Cha also lagging behind?"

"I also arrived late." Cha Liangyong smiled, Gu Huaisheng was embarrassed, and did not stare at the people, but he still reminded: "My lord, your collar is crooked."

"Hey, look what's going on here?" Gu Huaisheng tugged at his collar again, worked hard for a long time, and finally got a look: "Master Cha laughed."

"Where is there." Cha Liangyong said politely, he really didn't know how to answer the conversation, it was simply not appropriate to whisper too much at this time, rolled his eyes, and simply closed his mouth.

Gu Huaisheng was not a quiet person, he looked around and was far away from other people, so he stretched out his hand and pulled Cha Liangyong's sleeve, and then lowered his voice when someone looked over, "How about the Clan Mansion?"

Hearing this, Cha Liangyong glanced in front of him, nodded and said: "Everything is as usual, but..." After a pause, he moved closer to Gu Huaisheng, and then continued: "That person is calm, and has been in frequent correspondence with Yao Zhongcheng. , I'm afraid there will be some changes by taking advantage of today's opportunity."
