"Otherwise where should I be?" Gu Chengzhi asked back.

Chu Junyi was speechless for a moment, he should be very busy at this time, why would he be lying beside him?

Gu Chengzhi sighed: "You are here, where else can I go?"

Hearing what he said, Chu Junyi's heart softened, and a sour emotion surged up.

"I've done everything that needs to be done, and I don't intend to interfere with the rest." Gu Chengzhi explained lightly.

"En." Chu Junyi replied in a muffled voice.

Indeed, it is better not to interfere in the following matters, the Chu family will definitely be liquidated, and Gu Chengzhi can avoid suspicion by avoiding it.

"Are you hungry?" Gu Chengzhi asked him.

Chu Junyi shook his head.

"If you're not hungry, then get up and pack up, let's go home." Gu Chengzhi said softly.

"En." Chu Junyi responded, and then said in a muffled voice, "Let's go later..."

"What's wrong?" Gu Chengzhi froze for a moment.

Chu Junyi said vaguely, "I'm a little tired... I don't want to move."

Gu Chengzhi frowned, and his lips touched his forehead. The temperature was a little high, but it wasn't serious.

"Wait a minute, I'll find someone to make medicine." Gu Chengzhi wanted to get up after he finished speaking, but Chu Junyi pulled him and refused to let him go. He looked at Chu Junyi and said helplessly: "Good boy, let go .”

Chu Junyi looked a little sluggish, shook his head and said, "Go home."

Gu Chengzhi stared at him for a moment, then stretched out his arms to pick him up, and while helping him change his clothes, he shouted to the outside: "Prepare the car."

"Yes." The guards outside got the order and went to prepare the carriage.

"Before Yu Ji left, he left an extra prescription. He said that you might develop a high fever later, and you will take the medicine after you go back. Do you hear me?" Gu Chengzhi helped him get dressed, and he didn't wait for Chu Junyi to get up. Pick up the person and walk outside.

Chu Junyi protested, "I can go by myself."

"Going home early is the right thing to do." Gu Chengzhi remained unmoved, implying: You are walking too slowly.

Chu Junyi: "..."

As soon as he walked out of the room, Gu Chengzhi asked Xue Hu to go back to the house first, and prepare food, water and medicine, so he had to be quick.

The corners of Xue Hu's eyes twitched, and he used lightness kung fu on the way back.

Gu Chengzhi carried him all the way to the carriage. Although it took a relatively short time, Chu Junyi still felt...a bit ashamed.

After getting into the carriage, Chu Junyi put down his hands covering his face.

Regarding Chu Junyi's deceitful behavior, Gu Chengzhi did not intend to express his opinion. In such a short time, Chu Junyi's low fever has turned into a high fever.

At first I taught him how to use a dagger just in case, but when Chu Junyi really killed someone, Gu Chengzhi still felt very distressed.

And when Chu Junyi needed him the most, he was not by Chu Junyi's side, Gu Chengzhi was in a bad mood.

In fact, Chu Junyi was very fortunate that Gu Chengzhi was not by his side at that time, because he was not there, so he was able to grit his teeth and survive that period of time. If he had seen him at that time, Chu Junyi would probably collapse first.

After a day and night of buffering, the feeling that could drive people crazy is gradually fading away. Now that Gu Chengzhi is by his side, Chu Junyi feels very satisfied.

Back in the mansion, the food, soup and medicine were all ready, but the problem was that Chu Junyi couldn't eat it.

"Are you hungry or have no appetite?" Gu Chengzhi asked him.

Chu Junyi said honestly: "I have no appetite, I don't want to eat."

Gu Chengzhi directly brought the bowl to feed him.

"Actually, I ate before going to bed." Chu Junyi said with a bitter face.

"You also ate yesterday, why don't you eat today?" Gu Chengzhi said coldly.

Chu Junyi: "..."

He barely ate half a bowl, and drank the soup after rest, but Chu Junyi found that he couldn't sleep, he was very tired but just didn't feel sleepy.

Since he couldn't sleep, let's chat, so Chu Junyi pulled Gu Chengzhi to start chatting.

"A concubine of the second prince committed suicide, and interrogated the girl next to her, saying that the woman was a girl from the second prince's biological mother's family." Gu Chengzhi said.

"So, the second prince assassinated the emperor to avenge his biological mother?" Chu Junyi frowned slightly.

The second prince's biological mother was bestowed to death by the emperor, and her natal family was confiscated. They all became officials and slaves. It is understandable that they want to stand up. As for revenge... If the second prince's biological mother hadn't killed herself, how could she have hurt her family.

Official slaves are not allowed to be wives or concubines, they can become the second prince's concubine, this is the real skill.

"Do you believe it?" Chu Junyi felt that if this was the truth, then the power of the pillow wind was really extraordinary.

Gu Chengzhi smiled, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, the above said so, then this is the truth.

Chu Junyi nodded, expressing his understanding. Anyway, this is something that the emperor and Jin Rong should worry about. They can listen to what the higher authorities say.

"By the way, you have to be mentally prepared on the other end of the Chu family. Someone will come to them tomorrow." Gu Chengzhi reminded.

Chu Junyi said "En", and after calculating the time, it is better to let someone go to Chu's house. It is better to talk to Mrs. Chu about this kind of matter.

Gu Chengzhi didn't stop him, but just reached out and touched his forehead, the temperature dropped a little.

"Rest." Gu Chengzhi said.

Chu Junyi sighed, "I can't sleep."

"I'll accompany you." Gu Chengzhi hugged him and lay down, and extinguished the candle with a palm blow.

Chu Junyi blinked, smiled and leaned into his arms.

The people who went to Chu's house came back very quickly, stood outside the window and said: "The old lady said that she knew, the medicine will be administered again tonight, and the antidote will be given to them tomorrow morning."

"Understood, let's go down." Chu Junyi hooked the corners of his lips.

"Happy?" Gu Chengzhi patted his head.

Chu Junyi smiled lightly and said, "This saves trouble."

After a good night's sleep, Gu Chengzhi got up and went out early the next morning, Chu Junyi's high fever subsided, and he washed and changed his clothes and left by car.

During the period when Chu Junyi was resting, there was a big reshuffle in the capital, countless officials were pulled down, and the Marquis of Ji'an was among them.

The old lady Chu had sent people to keep an eye on the movement outside, and came back immediately to report when she saw that the wind direction was not right. Hou Mansion was surrounded.

Unlike the rest of the Chu family who roared repeatedly, the old lady Chu was extremely calm.

The men in the Chu family were guilty, the women were angry, and the children below didn't understand anything. Only the old lady of Chu looked on coldly, saying nothing and doing nothing, as if she regarded herself as an outsider.

The abnormality of Mrs. Chu was soon discovered. Mrs. Chu felt uneasy, took her hand, and said anxiously: "Look, mother, they broke in just like this, and they didn't take us seriously at all. .”

The old lady Chu patted Mrs. Chu's hand, and said lightly: "What's the hurry, you can't hide from what should come, and you can't survive the damned, let's do it and see."

Mrs. Chu felt a chill, and before she could continue speaking, Mrs. Chu began to scold him, no wonder his illness was strange, it must be Mrs. Chu's fault.

The old lady Chu gave him a cold look, then looked away.

The officers and soldiers also thought this family was very interesting, but they still had official duties and couldn't delay it.

Old Master Chu, First Master Chu and Second Master Chu were all detained, while the women and children of the Chu family were locked in a courtyard in the mansion, guarded by officers and soldiers outside.

After Chu Junyi learned about this, he sent someone to take care of it. The officers and soldiers would not take care of their food and clothing. Even if they sent them to eat, it would definitely be difficult to swallow. The charges against the Chu family have not yet been determined, so they can't be starved to death first. ah.

Compared with the other end of the Chu family, Chu Junyi has more important things to do.

He had a lot of spies, and there were quite a few people who sneaked into Prince Yu's forces, so he had to catch these people no matter what.

It just so happened that Qin An also had a spies trapped in it. Chu Junyi named his spies with Qin An, and begged him to help him when he was looking for someone.This matter was agreed by Jin Lu on behalf of the emperor, and Qin An also knew about it, so he agreed very readily.

In fact, the most difficult thing to do is the messy things that Old Master Chu has done, neither too much nor too light, his hair is almost graying with worry.

The emperor is still in a coma, and Jin Rong supervises the country to deal with political affairs. Except for the matter of Prince Yu and the two princes, everything else is going on in an orderly manner.

It is estimated that these things were arranged by the emperor in the past, otherwise, based on what Jin Rong is doing now, the rhythm of becoming the throne will be established.

Speaking of it, it was not easy for Jin Rong. He dealt with political affairs during the day and went to be a filial son to the emperor at night. Even if the emperor couldn't see him, Jin Rong still did his best.

In just a few days, Jin Rong lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Maybe it was Jin Rong's filial piety that moved the heavens, or maybe Duke Zhou got bored playing chess with the emperor and didn't plan to keep him anymore. Anyway, the emperor woke up after a few days of coma.

And when he opened his eyes, he saw Jin Rong's face crying with joy.

The memory of the emperor still remained at the moment when his son stabbed him with the dagger, and suddenly he saw that Jin Rong was still in a daze for a long time, and the imperial doctor came and went, feeding and administering medicine.

When the emperor came back, he was sad but also relieved, sad because his son wanted to kill him, and relieved because his father did not fail, at least the son he raised with his own hands hoped that he would live.

Jin Rong narrated what happened after the emperor fell into a coma. The emperor listened carefully and asked Jin Rong to stop when he was tired. The father and son got along very warmly.

The emperor woke up, and Jin Rong's actions became more legitimate, and the previously suppressed orders were quickly released. Except for Prince Yu and the two princes, the rest of the party members were liquidated one by one.

Although the old man Chu has been with Prince Yu for a long time, he is of average ability and has taken over enough things but can't touch the core affairs. In truth, the Chu family should be placed in the third round of liquidation.

Knowing this, Chu Junyi couldn't help sneering, this is the result of Old Master Chu's death for Prince Yu.

At the end of September, the decree to deal with the Marquis of Ji'an's Mansion also came down.

The old master Chu and the first master Chu were sentenced to beheaded after autumn, and the second master Chu and the second master Chu were sentenced to exile for three thousand miles. Then they took their titles and took back their mansions. All their family properties were confiscated and confiscated. Sell ​​it on the street together with the servants.

The Chu family has been separated for many years, and the rest of the families were found to be not involved in it, so they were not dealt with.

After getting this result, Chu Junyi was relieved. Compared with other families who were liquidated, this verdict couldn't be better.

The grandparents and grandchildren of the Chu family were locked up in prison, and their family members were about to sell them on the street. Chu Junyi sent news to Master Chu Er, Master Chu Fourth, and Master Chu Fifth respectively, and then ignored them.

On the day of the sale, Chu Junyi sent someone to buy back the master of the Chu family at a high price. No matter what, they were all his relatives, and it was not for family affection but for face.If they were bought by others to abuse him, both he and Gu Chengzhi would look bad, not to mention that he had promised Mrs. Chu that now is the time to come forward.

In addition to the master of the Chu family, Chu Junyi also sent people to buy a few rooms for his servants, among them were his spies who stayed in the Marquis of Ji'an's mansion, and the remaining rooms were reserved for the old lady Chu.

After placing the group of people in the house that had already been tidied up, Chu Junyi took a moment to go there.

Coincidentally, when Chu Junyi passed by, he also met the Second Master Chu and the Third Master Chu, while Mrs. Chu was roaring in anger.
