The return of the son-in-law

The barracks were no more heavily guarded than other places, so Yi Fuquan didn't send any news back for a long time.Jia Huan, on the other hand, inquired about Hao Yun's residence not long after, and went directly to look for him.

It just so happened that Hao Yun went to the government office to be on duty today, but was told that he could rest at home for a few days and didn't have to come over.Seeing that Guo Zhanan hadn't shown up, Hao Yun knew that something was wrong, but he was also worried that he would cause trouble for Guo Zhanan if he acted without authorization, so he could only ask his good friends in the government office to take care of him, and he went home obediently.

He didn't know until he met Jia Huan that just yesterday, he went to the Guo Mansion to talk to Guo Zhan'an about the situation, and then someone went to the Guo Mansion to get someone.

Seeing Hao Yun's panicked face, Jia Huan knew that he was timid, so he immediately said: "Master Hao, my second young master sent me here to ask Mr. Hao what he said to my young master yesterday, so that I can call my family." The Second Young Master and Young Master Jiang came up with countermeasures together."

Hao Yun woke up instantly as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head.

That's right, now who in the government office doesn't know that Hao Yun is someone Guo Zhan can use?At this time, he was tossing around, waiting for something to come out of?If Guo Zhan'an is not well, he, Hao Yun, will not be much better!

He Hao Yun didn't know who the second young master was, but Jiang Yannian was a small leader in the northwest military camp, and he was also the companion of the third prince Li Shaojun, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that he is a bamboo horse!

correct!Isn't my lord Guo Zhan'an also the third prince's companion?With such a backer behind him, unless it is the emperor Lao Tzu, everyone has to think about it, what is Hao Yun afraid of!

In this way, Hao Yun finally told Jia Huan what he said to Guo Zhan'an yesterday in an orderly manner.

As soon as Jia Huan heard it, he knew that someone was determined to frame his young master, and the other person's words were light, and he definitely couldn't help him. First, he told Hao Yun not to act rashly for the time being, and he did what he should do, while he hurried back to the house. Inform Huo Yu of the news he inquired about.

"It's too much!" Huo Yu was so angry that his hands shook, "Who is so cruel to pour such dirty water on my brother!"

Although he, Huo Yu, had no experience in officialdom, he had read a lot of history books.And he is not stupid, he knows that if this matter is confirmed, Guo Zhan'an will be close to death!

Huo Yu was anxious, he thought of many ways for a while, but suffered from no way out.Guo Zhan'an can't be contacted now, Jiang Yannian is still in the northwest military camp, and the so-called third prince is still in the capital, so the whole Guo family is probably counting on him.

He must not give up!

what to do?what to do?If it was the older brother, what would he do now?

Huo Yu was anxious to walk back and forth in the room, while he kept making plans in his heart.

The most important thing right now is to ensure that Guo Zhan'an is safe and sound. As long as he is safe, everything can be done.

However, except for Guo Zhanan, there is no one else working in the government office in the Guo family.He, Huo Yu, doesn't have many friends on a daily basis, let alone any contacts in the officialdom.

Got it!

"Jia Huan, go find Hao Yun one more time and tell him that he must ensure the safety of his brother and never let him get hurt."

Jia Huan was taken aback, and said hesitantly: "Second young master, now someone has framed the young master for killing the governor of Xuzhou, I'm afraid that person will wait for us to give him some more excuses. If we let Hao Yun go to activities at this time, will it be okay?" Will it fulfill that person's wish instead, and make the young master even more sad?"

After being reminded by Jia Huan, Huo Yu also found that his behavior seemed to be a bit inappropriate.

However, Guo Zhanan's life and death are uncertain now, how can Huo Yu feel at ease?

At this moment, as if Fu Ling's heart had come to him, Huo Yu remembered what Guo Zhan'an had taught him earlier - "Yu'er, you have to remember that no matter whether the other party is a seven-year-old child or a sixty-year-old woman, you can't underestimate her. They just looked at me as young, and only thought that I didn't have the ability like them, so they underestimated me. As long as I pursued and investigated the few flaws I showed, they would definitely find out the third prince behind me. However, they looked down on me Naturally, I wouldn't think of going to investigate these flaws carefully. I'm afraid, if they are in their hearts, they will take the initiative to fill them in for me."

Yup!

Having figured this out, Huo Yu felt as if he had escaped from his original stubbornness and placed himself on top of the whole matter, as if he had jumped from a trapped beast to a pusher who manipulated the whole matter.

"Don't worry, if we don't do this, they will be suspicious instead." Huo Yu decided to follow his previous thinking. Seeing that Jia Huan still didn't act, he knew that Jia Huan still disagreed, so he could only continue to explain: " Think about it, if a person's relatives were framed and imprisoned for no reason, would he be in a hurry?"

Jia Huan said: "Of course I'm anxious, I'm afraid I'm very anxious."

"That's right." Huo Yu continued, "Now my brother is the head of the Guo family. He was taken away in the middle of the night without any news. Are we in a hurry?"

Jia Huan seemed to understand something, and said: "The whole house is in a hurry. Many newly bought servants are panicked. You can hear them whispering at night."

"What else?" Huo Yu didn't know about this matter, but now that Jia Huan said it, he couldn't help frowning: "I know you will have a hard time these few days, but you should also pay attention, don't let the mansion spread What kind of gossip has tarnished my brother's reputation. If you pass it on, say it was my idea. Anyone who talks about the master of Guo's mansion behind his back will be punished with [-] boards for the first time. The dumb drug is on sale!"

Rao Jia Huan couldn't help but tremble when he heard this.

Huo Yu has always been a kind person, if it weren't for the urgent situation, how could he have thought of such a vicious method?

Jia Huan thought about it carefully, and Huo Yu said that this idea was his own, obviously to leave Guo Zhanan clean and give Guo Zhanan a good reputation.

Ever since Guo Zhanan and Huo Yu fell in love with each other, people would bump into them accidentally, especially Jia Huan - he was Guo Zhanan's confidant, and only he was qualified to enter such a place as the study room. back.

He is a servant, he can't say more about what his young master likes.It's just that I can't help but have some prejudice against Huo Yu in my heart, comparing him to the child molester in an ordinary family.

Now it seems that my young master has found such a person, although he is not a woman, but he is much better than others!I'm afraid it's only Huo Yu. In this critical moment, even though he is frowning, he will still try his best to find a way.

Huo Yu didn't know what Jia Huan was thinking. After explaining the matter, he explained again: "Since this is human nature, if we don't do this, won't we arouse the suspicion of my brother and enemies? Now I am in the open, and the enemy is in the dark. We only have to act in a scene to make my brother's enemies think that we are helpless, so that he may show his weakness. Only then will we have a chance to help my brother clear his grievances."

As a result, Jia Huan was completely convinced, and couldn't help saying: "The second young master's words are reasonable, but I thought too shallowly, and I didn't think of this level."

Huo Yu was not too polite, and it was rare for him to smile at this moment, and said, "That's because my brother taught me well."

Immediately, he thought of Guo Zhan'an who was nowhere to be now, and his smile was fleeting.Huo Yu urged: "You should do it now, but you must not let the people of Xuzhou know about it. My brother has been in office for less than two months, and he has not yet established prestige in Xuzhou. You must not ruin his reputation." You just need to let those high officials from the capital know about our actions."

Jia Huan couldn't help showing embarrassment: "I'm sure that people on our side will not leak out, but if someone in the government office deliberately leaks the news, what should we do?"

Huo Yu carefully analyzed: "The matter of Shi Guogan is related to the military salary, and my brother is involved in him, so it must be related to the military salary. This matter is no small matter. Before the truth comes out, those high officials from the capital must not want the common people to know. After all, if the military salary is embezzled, the army's food, weapons, armor, and horses will all be affected. There may be spies from the Tatar clan in Xuzhou City. If Tatar knows that Xuzhou's army is not as well-equipped as before, it will definitely Will wait for the opportunity. Those people can't afford it, and they don't dare to take this responsibility."

Jia Huan couldn't help but nodded and said, "What the second young master said is true."

Huo Yu said again: "You have reminded me, you should pay more attention these few days, whoever revealed the matter of brother for the first time must have something to do with the mastermind who framed brother!"

Jia Huan agreed, and then went out to look for Hao Yun without mentioning it.

Two days later, Fuquan came back from the barracks with Jiang Yannian's secret letter.

Huo Yu took it, seeing that the sealant on the envelope was intact, he felt relieved, and waved Fu Quan down to rest first.Jia Huan immediately followed out, and after closing the door, he guarded the study.

Huo Yu eagerly tore open the envelope, took out the secret letter inside and read it.

Jiang Yannian's analysis in the secret letter not only coincides with Huo Yu's, but also goes deeper.He not only reminded Huo Yu to perform a play for everyone in the government office, but also pointed out several points where there might be clues, and gave several plans for Huo Yu's reference.

Huo Yu thought over every plan carefully, and then made some modifications according to Xuzhou's current situation.He then closed his eyes and muttered something, then opened his eyes again, and matched with the one written in Jiang Yannian's letter, and then burned the secret letter.

Huo Yu opened the door, called Jia Huan, and explained Jiang Yannian's two plans, and then said, "These two are the most likely ones. We don't have many people available, so we can only pick these two." First, you take Wu Xin, and then pick a few who are needed to guard the west gate, Fuquan and I, and take Cai Ying and the brothers to guard the east gate."

Then Cai Ying was the big man who stood up to Guo Zhanan's interrogation after Huo Yu was attacked.Over the past month, Guo Zhan'an and Huo Yu have considered it personally, and both feel that although Cai Ying has a stubborn personality, he is indeed a man with a clean family background.Now, besides Wu Xin brought by Guo Zhanan, Cai Ying has become the second leader in the nursing home.

Jia Huan also felt that this was the only way to do it now, and the staff was properly arranged, so he quietly went to arrange it.

It's just that Huo Yu didn't rest for long, when he heard that someone came to see him.

Huo Yu thought there was something wrong at first, but after hearing what these servants were begging for, he could only sneer: "So, someone in your family is either seriously ill and can't keep going, waiting for you to go back Going to the funeral; or there is a disaster, waiting for you to go back to help. But anyway, it will take a month?"

One of the servants said with an apologetic smile: "Second Young Master, I'm really sorry, a letter came from home suddenly, I had to go back."

There were also a few people who responded, some of them were old people who passed away and were going to the funeral, some had disasters at home, or something serious happened and they had to go back.

Huo Yu could see clearly, how could there be such a coincidence in the world that so many unlucky things happened to one person in the house at the same time?But I feel that Guo Zhan'an is finished, and the Guo family is going to be finished, so let's run away first.

It's a pity, these people still have some thoughts in their hearts, thinking that if Guo Zhan'an is not over, the Guo Mansion is still there, after a while, the funeral and disaster are over, and it will not be too late to come back.

They only thought that Huo Yu was always smiling when he saw everyone, and he rarely put on airs in front of their servants. He was young, and now that Guo Zhan'an was not around, he couldn't make up his mind, so they had the courage to make such a move.

It's a pity that they don't know what it means to be close to Zhu Chi and close to ink and black. Huo Yu has been raised by Guo Zhan'an for a year, is he still the usual little doll who doesn't understand anything?

Huo Yu didn't expose them, instead he said very considerately: "Since the family is in trouble, then I won't keep you, but many of you signed a death contract, just treat it as me and my brother who have accumulated virtue. As for the death contract, I will return it to you, but everyone has to exchange it with three taels of silver, how about it?"

Three taels of silver!That's not a small amount!

Everyone showed embarrassment and said, "Second Young Master, we just have some family matters, and we will be back in a few months. I beg Second Young Master to show mercy and keep our death contract."

Huo Yu refused now, shaking his head and said, "I have to find others to do the work you left these days. It's not easy to find short-term workers, and I don't worry about short-term workers being in my brother's house. Do things. It’s better to buy another batch of people. In this way, both you and I will benefit, and everyone will be happy.”

Everyone wanted to say something more, but Huo Yu suddenly said with a straight face: "If you don't take out the silver in exchange for your contract of sale, then you don't want to take a step outside the Guo family!"

These three taels of silver are much cheaper than what Huo Yu bought back then.Moreover, Huo Yu usually gave rewards to his servants, especially on Guo Zhan'an's birthday a few days ago, the whole house received a lot of money.Asking them to come up with three taels of silver at this moment, although somewhat difficult, is not impossible.

It's not that Huo Yu never thought of being kind to others and accumulating virtue to Guo Zhan.I just thought that these people only wanted to protect themselves when their brother was in the most critical moment, and they made it clear that they didn't regard themselves as people from the Guo family!

What is the use of such a person!

He, Huo Yu, is not someone who will give kindness to everyone!

Everyone discussed for a while, and as expected, they all offered three taels of silver in exchange for their own contracts of sale.

Huo Yu was also polite, and called Jia Huan directly, took out the deeds of sale of these people, paid the money with one hand, and handed over the deed with the other, and the two will be cleared from now on!

Jia Huan was very disdainful about this: "What kind of people are these people? It's better to leave early, maybe one day they will beat them up and harm the Guo family!"

Huo Yu held back his breath and said, "Don't worry about these people, it's more important than anything else to clear up my brother's grievances!"
