While Xu Changan was nestling under the quilt and confronting Steward Feng, preferring to die rather than drink the medicine, Gu Yao went to see Langhuo who had returned from the investigation.

Without further ado, Lang Huo first knelt down on one knee, and Gu Yao knew it was over.

Sure enough, Lang Huo said immediately: "This subordinate is incompetent. He only dealt with the dowry slaves that Madam let go, but failed to find out Madam's identity."

"Why?"

"According to the investigation of my subordinates, within a hundred years, there were 340 people with the same name as my wife in all parts of Daqi, of which 240 were men and 240 were women. ……No."

Gu Yao frowned, "Not one?"

"Yes." Lang Huo was also very unbelievable, "The subordinates have checked it several times, but the result is the same."

"What about people born a hundred years ago?"

"My subordinates have also checked. In the last hundred years, there were 480 people with the same name as my wife, of which 80 were men, 400 were women, and three of them were over a hundred years old. A thousand and eight people all died after Madam entered the mansion."

When Xu Chang'an married into the General's Mansion, he had already resurrected with a dead body, and the person with the same name who died later naturally had nothing to do with him.

As for why there is such a big gap in the number of names with the same name, it is because the enemy country invaded in the last hundred years, and the people did not have a living. Ascending to the throne, emphasizing martial arts and despising culture, the generals are victorious, and the people gradually live a better life. If they want to continue the long-term stability, more people are named "Chang'an".

It's just that Gu Yao didn't expect that Xu Chang'an's origin could not be found out for 200 years.

The most creepy thing is that old people who can die for a hundred years are rare, and those who are over a hundred years old are even rarer. According to this investigation, there are so many people with the same name as Xu Chang'an who have been over a hundred years old for so many years, and they all died in Xu Chang'an After entering the mansion, it was as if...someone was secretly blocking him, and he didn't want him to find out any clues.

"The subordinates were also worried about someone's interference, so they made an in-depth investigation. People who have lived for more than a hundred years all live in the same place - Chang'an Village, Xujia Town. Everyone in this town is named Xu, and everyone in this village is named Xu. Xu Chang'an was born with Chinese characters in order to distinguish who is who." Langhuo continued, "Xu's town is located in the deep mountains and old forests, and there are few people around. Even the local officials have to read the information to remember their existence. The subordinates have also confirmed that this is a longevity village, and it is very common to be over a hundred years old."

Gu Yao's face turned cold, "What is the cause of their death?"

How could it be so strange to die.

Langhuo said: "I was massacred by bandits."

Gu Yao frowned, "Bandit?"

Hearing vaguely that Xu Changan was finally willing to drink the medicine in the house, Langhuo lowered his voice slightly, "On the day you married your wife, the bandits intercepted and killed her, but she was injured by her. Afterwards, she fled in the vicinity of Xujia Town. That night , when the subordinates had to order to deal with the bandits, they were also found at the entrance of Chang'an Village."

It's a pity that he didn't go into the village to take a look at that time, and the local officials also had a vegetarian meal in their corpses. Until now, they haven't found that Chang'an Village has been slaughtered, let alone that the bandits have been wiped out by him.

That is to say, people in Chang'an village will die because Gu Yao asked Langhuo to bribe bandits to kill Xu Chang'an, and it has nothing to do with others.

Langhuo knew that this answer was a bit unacceptable, but it was the truth, "As for why all the people who died were old people over a hundred years old, it was because Chang'an Village was poor, and all the young people went out to work, and only the old people with limited mobility stayed in the village. home."

Killing a group of helpless old people is the best choice for bandits who have suffered from being dumb at Xu Changan's and are eager to vent their anger.

The dead have passed away, and the bandits have paid for their lives, one for one.

But when Xu An Bang and Xu Anping were murdered, Xu Chang'an couldn't accept it. Gu Yao couldn't imagine, what would happen if Xu Chang'an knew that the bandits had killed so many people after he let him go?He didn't dare to let Xu Changan know.

Gu Yao said calmly: "Write an anonymous letter to the yamen, and they will handle it themselves."

Now Xu Chang'an can't move around too much, as long as the people in the General's Mansion keep their mouths shut, this matter will not reach Xu Chang'an's ears when the storm passes.

Even if someone said it was a slip of the tongue, Xu Changan would not know the cause and effect.

After all, the officials in the yamen did not dare to cause panic, so when they received an anonymous letter, they could only evade the seriousness and ignore the seriousness of the massacre in Yong'an Village, focusing on the fact that the bandits were killed, so as to reassure the people.

Lang Huo replied: "This subordinate will do it now."

After he finished speaking, he didn't rush to leave.

Gu Yao asked him: "Is there anything else?"

Langhuo hesitated and said: "The villain who framed the Gu family, the subordinates seem to have some clues."

Gu Yao quickly straightened his expression, "What clue?"

Langhuo took out a box from his arms and gently opened it, "General Gu, please confirm whether what you saw was this totem?"

Inside the box was a fragmented piece of human skin with bloody red flesh attached underneath. It looked disgusting, but Gu Yao grabbed it and almost crushed it in his hands, "This is... where did you come from?" found?"

There is a tattoo on the top of the human skin, although it is incomplete, but it turned into ashes, Gu Yao can recognize it, this is the pine and cypress totem tattooed on the arm of the person who attacked him on the day when Gu's family was wiped out.

As soon as Lang Huo saw Gu Yao's reaction, he knew he had found the right one, "I found it when I passed by Xujia Town when I was returning."

It was Xujia Town again.

Gu Yao's mind was on Xu's Town, and he heard Lang Huo continue: "There is a hillside, and there are many corpses piled up on it. Judging from the method... it should be killed by you."

Gu Yao suddenly came back to his senses, "Is this the totem on those assassins?!"

"Yes." Lang Huo just came back, so he doesn't know what happened to them, but he can tell from the clothing of the corpse that it is indeed an assassin, "The other corpses were all torn to pieces by wild beasts, only this one can vaguely see the shape, subordinate brought it back."

Gu Yao didn't expect that the clue would be buried in his own hands, his teeth almost gnawed, "What else?"

"My subordinates searched all the corpses, and only found an interlayer in one of the scattered rags. There was a note in the interlayer, which said... wrote..." Lang Huo swallowed nervously , did not go on.

Gu Yao didn't understand, so he pushed aside the pieces of meat, and there was indeed a note underneath, when he opened it, his pupils shrank sharply.

The note was stained dark brown with blood, soaked in ink with only four words: Xu Qianjin, die.

Lang Huo couldn't hide his shame, "Besides this, there is nothing else, the clue...is broken again."

"No." Gu Yao squeezed the note tightly, with a bloodthirsty smile on the corner of his mouth, with a somewhat rampant pathology, "The clues are not broken."

Langhuo raised his head in doubt.

"I've seen this handwriting before." Gu Yao couldn't stop the killing intent in his eyes, "It's in the prime minister's residence."

At that time, he and Xu Changan were looking for Xu Guanying, and the ugly calligraphy and paintings they saw when passing by the corridor were exactly the same as the handwriting on this note.

Hope suddenly rose in Langhuo's eyes, "This subordinate will go and investigate now!"

Gu Yao looked at the moonlight in the sky, silently exerted his internal force, turned the notes into ashes, and let them flow away from his fingertips.

Xu Qianjin died a long time ago, and now the person accompanying him is Xu Chang'an, if anyone dares to touch a single hair of Xu Chang'an, he will make that person not able to live or die.

The assassination matter was suppressed by Gu Yao, and the rumors outside were the same as before, Xu Chang'an fell ill again because he was frightened after meeting the Holy Majesty, and he remained ill for more than half a month.

The Holy Majesty was also very guilty. Hearing that Xu Changan's condition had improved, he came to express his favor again.

When he first met the Holy Master, he went home and fell into the water, and when he saw the Holy Master again, he was assassinated. Xu Chang'an felt that the Holy Master might be poisonous, so he didn't want to see him very much.

When the Holy Majesty arrived, he hid in the quilt and pretended to be dead.

Gu Yao glanced at him, opened the door silently and went out, just in time to have a face-to-face meeting with the Holy One.

The Holy One laughed and said, "General Gu, you will be fine."

Then he bypassed Gu Yao and wanted to enter the door.

Gu Yao moved a step and blocked his way.

The Holy Majesty didn't know why, so he bypassed Gu Yao again, who knew that Gu Yao followed closely and blocked him again.

"...General Gu doesn't want me to go in?" The Holy Majesty saw his intention, "It's my fault that you startled your wife. I just said a few words to him to comfort him, and left immediately."

Gu Yao still refused.

It was the first time that His Majesty was rejected by someone. The key point was that this person was not only a great hero, but also a single-minded fool. It didn't make sense to reason, and there was no reason to punish him.

The wife was sick in bed twice because of the same person, and the husband felt distressed, and he wanted to stop him outside at the risk of Longyan's fury.If he is punished, people in the world may say that he has evil intentions and wants to kill Gu Yao's wife.

The Holy Majesty has no choice but to settle for the next best thing, "Then you will work hard to spread a message for me. When your wife is in better health and the hunting festival is coming, I will personally invite you to have an immediate love and hatred. Your wife is going out At least, this is also an opportunity to exercise courage, and you can't make people laugh every time."

Thinking of Xu Changan's injuries all over his body, Gu Yao now wants to have a happy enmity with Shengshang.

Going hunting after recovering from a serious illness is really not my wife, and I don't know how to feel distressed.

But he has to act stupid, so he can't get angry, he can only concentrate on guarding his own door.

The Holy Majesty was shut down, and it didn't affect other people's rush to curry favor.

However, they couldn't come and go freely in the General's Mansion like the Holy Majesty, and were all stopped by Steward Feng on the grounds that Xu Chang'an needed to rest.

Xu Changan applied the special-effect golden sore medicine at noon. After dinner, he couldn't wait to take Gu Yao back to the house, took off his shirt and turned his back to Gu Yao, "Ah Yao, help me to see if you are cured?"

Gu Yao was slightly taken aback.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that his expression was wrong, Xu Changan asked, "Is it useless?"

Gu Yao shook his head, "Yes."

"Healed?"

"No."

Xu Changan was confused when he heard that, and remembered that he had also rubbed special-effect gold sore medicine on other places, so he turned to open his trouser legs, only to see that the knife mark on his right foot had healed for five or six points, and immediately understood what Gu Yao meant.

Helpful, but not cured.

Even so, Gu Yao was also surprised.

No wonder Xu Changan kept talking about it, it turned out it was because this special-effect golden sore medicine is really a treasure.

Xu Changan understood, put on his clothes and analyzed: "Maybe the dose is not enough."

The author has something to say: Well-behaved, I am back, and I am working hard to reply to comments~(///▽///)

There are really not many chapters in the full text. If you add more, it will be gone in a few clicks. (;?Д`)
