Chapter 40 The Truth

Today's update has been completed, thank you for watching~

Twelfth lunar month twenty-two.

"It's indeed the same thing." Lu Yao's expression turned dark. After Su Ye's words, Ning Zhiyuan didn't wait for Gu Ming to wake up. He left Chang'an's Pofeng Sword and pills and rushed to Nanlin without stopping. It has been two days since I met Lu Yao face to face, but after listening to a general idea, my husband has already got a glimpse of the whole picture.

Bai Zhongxuan received news from the secret guard tonight, and he was entering the yard through the secret door at the moment, when he lifted the curtain, he heard the voice of Mr. It has been more than two years since the inspections were carried out in various places. However, many forces were involved, and it was only through private investigations by the secret guards that they found out. The spice incident has caused a lot of disturbance in the market in the past two years, and Zhongxuan paid a lot of attention during the inspections. However, the turmoil between the DPRK and China has been turbulent recently, and he is tired of dealing with the forces of all parties, which allows the other party to take advantage of the loopholes."

After hearing about it, Bai Zhongxuan entered the room and added to the topic, "Three years ago, I also accidentally discovered that the wine of Zuixianju had already been sold out, and came across several cases of drunken madness, but the government refused to accept them. They all said that those people were going to extort Zuixianju through this trip. I thought it was strange, so I sent people to investigate in private. At first, nothing was found, but after I took the official position, all parties inspected and found that there were all kinds of problems. It was related to Zuixianju, so I started a thorough investigation. At that time, the court had divided power, and I had a congenial temperament with the second highness of the court. I brought up this matter intentionally or unintentionally. Spices are mixed in the transactions of the family and spread everywhere to make money."

Bai Zhongxuan paused for a moment, "Originally, everything went smoothly, but the clues at the joints were found to be interrupted. The Patriarch of the Gu family is cunning. , the secret guards under him came to the south to investigate in an orderly manner, but they really couldn't do anything about the affairs of the rivers and lakes. The documents were also approved through my father, until a few months ago when my husband was attacked at night, and the other party wanted to use him to threaten me, I sent hidden guards to investigate many times, and only then did I push the people behind the scenes to the front."

Speaking of this, Bai Zhongxuan's expression darkened, "I need to explain the pros and cons to my senior. The person behind the whole story of spices is the current crown prince!"

Bai Zhongxuan will basically talk with Lu Yao about the affairs in the court, but he skips all the details. Coming from behind, but now several things are stuck at the joints, and Ning Zhiyuan's arrival tonight is really a turning point to break through the bottleneck.

Ning Zhiyuan quickly went through the ins and outs of the matter. There are many overlaps in the middle, but they are all stuck in the same place. Su Ye is already sorting out the prescriptions for spices and the antidote to deal with it, but it will take some time. The Gu family was attacked two days ago. When he wakes up and inquires about the hidden evidence, I came to Nanlin, first to find out the relationship between the two of you and this matter, and now it is the same purpose, when the evidence in Gu Ming's hand is found, I will trouble the two of you to help. The second is for those who make spices..."

Bai Zhongxuan knew that he had been investigating this matter for a long time, "My dark guards have been looking for this person's traces for nearly a year. The hidden guards also failed to catch him. They were almost able to catch him originally, but recently the crown prince has been agitated, and the number of people sent to attack has increased. The dark guards under the Second Highness and I have been a bit out of control. We have to ask our seniors to help us with this matter. ..."

Ning Zhiyuan came here for this purpose, nodded in response, and asked some secret guards about the situation when they were investigating Su Zui's whereabouts, planning to combine what Su Ye said, and start looking for someone tonight.

At the end of the conversation, Bai Zhongxuan deliberated for a while before explaining the matter clearly, "Senior, the situation in the Gu family is dangerous now. The crown prince has already started to act, and the offensive will only become more violent. In addition, the sage is not in good health recently. I'm afraid it won't last long. The crown prince has been dormant for a long time, and he definitely doesn't want to be hindered by the matter of spices at this time. Now that there is me in the court and His Highness the Second Highness, he will concentrate all his manpower on the Qi and Gu families and the people who support the pharmaceuticals. , seniors, be careful, if you can find people and evidence before the turmoil in the court, and cooperate with the outside, the crisis of the Qi and Gu families can be resolved, if in the end..."

If it fails in the end, when the crown prince ascends the throne, not to mention the Qi and Gu family, everyone involved in this matter will be doomed. This operation can be said to be close to death. Ning Zhiyuan has already turned around, waved his hand and disappeared into the night.

Lu Yao stared intently at the direction in which he disappeared, his hand was painfully gripped by Bai Zhongxuan, the husband held it back solemnly, this matter can only be let go, only success can not be failed, Bai Zhongxuan's voice was in the silence It sounded, "The situation is dangerous now, I'm afraid that besides senior, I have to trouble someone else."

******************

Xindu, Gu family.

Su Yi needs to concentrate fully when explaining the medicine, so he arranges it in the room next to Gu Ming. He has never been in such a state before. Occasionally, when a servant comes in to deliver meals and hot water, he is very cautious and takes his actions lightly.

In the end, there were still a few servants left in the Gu family who took care of daily life. They were all homeless and grew up in the Gu family. They refused to leave even if they said nothing, so they stayed. Now it is convenient for Gu Linzhi and the others to discuss. And pay close attention to Gu Ming's condition.

The two days given by Su Yi have come, and the hearts of Gu Linzhi and Gu Heng have sunk to the bottom. They know the ending, but they still can't help but have delusions in their hearts. Seeing the sun go down little by little, they seem to be waiting for Gu Heng The lights were exhausted, and Chang An's mood was complicated. They turned Gu's house upside down in the past two days, but they couldn't find anything.

When Su Ye pushed the door and entered the room, the door creaked. Gu Hengzhi felt that the King of Hades was standing in front of Gu Ming's bed, waiting for his life. When he saw Su Ye's expression, he knew that there was no way out. They had already made two days of mental preparations. , at this time is calm and desolate.

There were only a few of them left in the room, Gu Linzhi and Gu Hengzhi were guarding in front of Gu Ming's bed, Su Ye was sitting by the bed and waiting for the needle to be pulled out, Chang An was standing at the end of the bed, Shitou looked at this situation, he felt really uncomfortable, But he didn't dare to sigh, and could only accompany him quietly.

After the needle was taken off, Gu Ming half-closed his eyes and rested for a while before he came back to his senses. Looking along his eyes, he saw Liu Xu at first sight. Qi Wangshu briefly mentioned the matter of Chang'an before leaving. If he hadn't mentioned this jade pendant Well, he couldn't remember Liu Xu at all, to him it was just love.

Going around, he actually thought of Liu Xu before he died, but Qi Wangshu said that Chang'an Dao was his mother's relic, how could he see Liu Xu, Gu Ming struggled to make a smile, facing the direction of Chang'an, weak Said, "It's called...you...found..."

Others couldn't understand, but Gu Linzhi and Chang'an were shocked. Gu Linzhi might as well be like this. When he looked at Chang'an, he found that he was also looking over. They didn't know how to react.

After Gu Ming finished speaking, he began to pant. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Gu Linzhi tightly. He seemed to have regained his senses, and confessed in a dying struggle, "The thing...is in... .A Sheng...in the dowry...and...on the door...on and...cough...and.. ...."

In the end, he was out of breath from the panting, his throat was already deep, he couldn't make a sound, only his lips were trembling, Gu Hengzhi clenched his lips tightly and wept, trembling, but he didn't dare to make a sound , when he went forward to hold Gu Ming's hand tightly, he found that the trembling had gradually stopped, so he fell down beside the bed and cried bitterly.

Chang An's eye sockets were tense and painful, but when he looked up, he saw that Gu Linzhi was crying silently, and Gu Hengzhi was crying so hard that he was supported by a stone and sat down on a chair not far away.

Su Ye noticed the subtlety, and patted Gu Linzhi's shoulder to give up his seat. Chang'an couldn't hear what he wanted to explain in the end, but he felt pain and numbness from Gu Ming's words, and Liu Xu would miss it until his death People, never thought that they would meet her again.

Gu Linzhi turned around weakly, and blocked Chang'an's view behind him when he moved towards the bed. Chang'an never mentioned his mother's matter to Gu Linzhi, but he knew that Chang'an's life was not good when he arrived at Lingshan. After learning that the Gu family had an accident, even if he was involved in it for the sake of brotherhood, Chang An just wanted an explanation.

Years of pain could not resist the subversion brought by Gu Ming's words before his death. Gu Linzhi felt that Gu Ming owed Chang'an too much, but Chang'an only tightened his eyes, and took out the jade pendant from his arms and stuffed it into his body while he was blocking his body. There was no other movement on Gu Ming's chest.

The farce ended here, and Chang'an had already got the answer. He never had any expectations for his biological father, but he just wanted to help Liu Xu fulfill his wish. Now he just returned the jade pendant to Gu Ming, and from then on, Liu Xu and this person were completely clean.

same day.Huaian.

jingle.You Xu plucked the tough thread hidden in the light, and there was a thin bell tied on it, as long as you touched it, you could hear the jingle. This was originally the method You Xu and Qi Su used to catch game on the mountainside. Fu Yi, the confidant guard who followed Qi Wangshu's transportation in many ways, laughed and joked, "Xiao Xu and Xiao Su are indeed brothers, these little things are so fun!"

Although the movement of the Qi family was not as big as that of the Gu family, Qi Wangshu still carefully dispatched a dozen guards to stay at the Qi family. After all, he has been transporting outside for many years, and his skills are not advanced, but he can still manage for a while. He has seen people's skills before. If there are fewer people in black, they can handle them. If there are too many, they will call in more guards, which will only increase casualties. The only way to keep the number of casualties to a minimum is as much as possible.

Huai'an is five or six days away from the south, and this action is also in case of emergencies. Although You Xu is used to being wild in Lingshan, he has his own ideas on defensive strategies. Hearing this, he laughed, "Uncle Yi laughed It's gone." Lin Jingwan was coming back from outside, You Xu let go of the thread in his hand, and rang a bell, "Brother, is there any news from Xindu?"

Lin Jingwan pulled people to look for Qi Wangshu and Qi Su, "Uncle Gu... is in danger, and the uncle went to Nanlin to do some business. It was Su Yi's letter back. The letter only briefly stated the situation and explained the next few days. We have to be careful and take precautions today, we have to prepare for the battle, protect the Qi family, and wait for the news of Shishu and Nanlin."

The study room was silent for a while, and it was too late to be dazed. Even if the Qi family is not the main target, the next days will not be easy. Qi Su frowned seriously. Bar!"

Twenty-three, night, Qi's family.

The night attack started quietly. The dead man was especially good at hiding in the dark. He moved like a ghost at night and had excellent eyesight. Before the bell was tied up, the guard fell to the ground before the bell was tied up. Lin was startled. Wan was the first to fight with his sword, and Qi Wangshu silently gestured to ask his youngest son Qi Jun to protect Lin Jianyi and hide in a secret room, and joined the battlefield with his two older brothers, Qi Su.

Qi Su dodged the knife wielded by the dead man, holding the sword in one hand and the crossbow in the other, and when he dodged back, he turned his hand and shot at the man in black who was attacking from behind. There were eight dead men who came tonight. The body is secretive, and the shot is fast.

With the results of Lingshan's years of practice and trials, the three of them can still try their best to parry the attacks of the two men in black with one person's strength, but it is difficult to win, not to mention that the number of people who have come has exceeded the number of Qi family. The encirclement and suppression by the guards, together with Qi Wangshu and Qi Hao, Qi Lie still had the cleverness brought back by Qi Su in his hands, so he could barely handle it.

You Xu and Lin Jingwan stood back to back, surrounded by four men in black. When the men in black moved, You Xu quickly touched Lin Jingwan with his elbow. Use the sword to parry the stabbing knife violently.

Lin Jingwan was not at ease during the scuffle, and several people were injured one after another, but the addition of ingenuity and familiarity with the terrain became a good help. They were well prepared and their energy was at their peak.

After fighting for most of the night, the man in black finally lost nearly half of his body. He retreated at dawn, and most of the guards of the Qi family lost their lives. The injuries varied in depth, and the three Lingshan brothers and sisters gasped a little anxiously when they stopped, and there were large and small cuts on their bodies, but they were still in good spirits, helping the injured into the room for healing and bandaging.

This is only the first night, the Qi family has already suffered a lot of damage, Fu Yi has never been hostile to such a dead man, and when Lin Jingwan cleaned the wound, he still felt a little palpitating, and said to Qi Wangshu whose arm was cut, "Let's send some more people over today. Since they stopped moving during the day, we can still rest for a while. The people who come here are all very skilled, and they are used to hiding at night. If we use wheels to fight, we may not be able to survive." For the third night."

The delivery team under Qi Wangshu is managed by Fu Yi, and there are everywhere in the south and sea. Now it is the end of the new year, and many people have already rested and set off to go home to prepare for the new year. Except for the dozen or so people who really live in Huai'an last night Confidants, most of the remaining ones are employment relationships, and the skills are not good, but the current situation is forced, if people are not mobilized, the Qi family can only rely on the three senior brothers from Lingshan, and it will not last long. If the number of people who came increased, it would indeed be the limit to survive the third night.

Qi Wangshu didn't expect this offensive to be so fierce, so he summoned the few remaining guards in Huai'an with a large sum of money urgently, and adjusted the battle plan. On the second night, the few remaining men in black came, adding two more people. In the early hours of the battle, the Qi family finally won by a narrow margin, but the Qi family also suffered heavy losses. Except for Fu Yi, there was only one other guard left. Qi Wangshu and his two sons also fell ill, and Lin Jianyi and Qi Jun were too busy. .

Qi Su, You Xu and Lin Jingwan's injuries were not serious, but the large and small wounds oozing blood were quite scary to watch. When the last man in black fell down, they looked at each other tacitly and panted for a long time After a while, Qi Su and You Xu looked at Lin Jingwan who had put his sword back into its sheath, and called out in unison, "Senior Brother..."
