A few days after the incident, apart from Xu Guanying who hid in an unknown corner to recover from his injuries under the pretext of being seriously injured, Sheng Shang, Wu Ya, Lan Yuji, Wang Kerong and others all came to see Xu Changan.

What he said was almost the same, but it was just to let him think carefully about whether he should take this risk.

Xu Changan didn't want to answer meaningless questions repeatedly, so he simply ignored them.

They knew they couldn't persuade them, so out of good intentions, they reminded Xu Chang'an that if he couldn't hold on, it was better to be a deserter than to die.

Xu Changan, who was admitted to the police academy, couldn't hear such kindness, and was so angry that he kicked him out on the spot, "Even if I die, I will never be a deserter!"

After that, no matter who came, he refused to let him in.

The war is urgent and cannot be delayed.

Before leaving, Xu Chang'an and Gu Yao went to worship the ancestors.

Gu Yao said, "Father, my son and his daughter-in-law have come to see you."

In the transparent and bright room, the black memorial tablets are placed neatly in rows, clean and free of dust.

It was all for Qi, or for the martyrs of the Gu family who died in battle or were murdered.

Seeing so many new tablets, Xu Changan felt even more sad and uncomfortable when he thought of his parents, "The Gu family is loyal, but the officials are ruthless. Now Ah Yao and I are about to go to war, and life and death are unknown. Please honor your ancestors, May we return safely."

After speaking, they bowed three times with great respect and burned incense.

Seeing that Xu Changan's eyes were slightly red, Gu Yao gently stroked his face, "What's wrong?"

Xu Changan shook his head, "It's nothing."

Gu Yao remembered that he was using the dead body to bring back his soul, and wanted to ask him if he was homesick. If he was thinking about it, he only needed to tell himself where his former relatives were, and now he could ask Steward Feng to bring them to the general's mansion.

It's a pity that Xu Chang'an has never admitted the matter of resurrecting the soul with the corpse, and he is not willing to say much.

In fact, it is better not to say.

Xu Changan was originally an only child, and his parents died at the hands of the enemy after being betrayed by his companions, leaving him only a huge inheritance and loneliness day after day.

Gu Yao hugged Xu Changan, "You still have me."

Xu Chang'an was stunned for a moment, thinking that Gu Yao was comforting himself with a father like Xu Guanying, but he didn't explain, and smiled, "Yes."

Speaking of it, Xu Changan, like Gu Yao, is an orphan of a hero, which is why he can empathize with Gu Yao more than ordinary people.

It's just that his parents are not generals, but... In ancient times, they were more similar to the insiders raised in private by the Yamen.

Xu Changan held Gu Yao's hand on his waist, "It's a pity, I don't have such great skills as you."

Before winning glory for them, he came back from the dead and came to this alien world.

Gu Yao coaxed him: "I am powerful, I belong to you, and you are even more powerful."

Xu Changan was amused by his lame love words, "Well, what we Ah Yao said are all right."

The vehicle was ready, Xu Changan and Gu Yao went to try on the armor, Gu Yao waited for the maneuver to move his feet, in order not to delay the time, Xu Changan had to drive him to the next room.

The armor fit very well, but it was a little heavy. When Xu Changan took it off, he had a lot of trouble and was sweating all over.

"Chang Shun," Xu Changan changed his clothes and called someone in, "Go find some scissors, the thread that binds the armor is too long, you have to cut some."

Chang Shun said, "But... there are no scissors in the mansion."

"Is it all worn out?" Xu Changan wrapped the extra thread around his fingers, "It should be too late to buy one now."

"No." Chang Shun lowered his voice slightly, "After the little dowry came over, I also wanted to use scissors a few times, but for some reason, I couldn't find any in the general's mansion, and no one was allowed to buy them."

Xu Changan felt strange, "Then what do you use to cut things?"

Chang Shun replied, "Cut it with a knife, or tear it up with your hands."

Xu Changan looked at the good-quality thread in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"I'll do it." Gu Yao walked in at some point, took the thread in his hand and pulled it lightly, and it broke in two.

Xu Changan is used to being slapped in the face by Gu Yao, "Ah Yao, why are there no scissors in the house? Is there any taboo?"

He remembered that this matter was not mentioned in the original book.

"No." Gu Yao said, "I'll let Steward Feng buy it."

Xu Changan didn't think too much, packed up and set off with Gu Yao.

Butler Feng was too old to travel far, so Xu Chang'an just took Chang Shun away and kept Chang De at the residence, so as to help him a little bit.

It's just that Gu Ziqi made too much noise, from the day he knew they were leaving, he kept crying, pestering him to sleep with Xu Changan every night, begging him not to leave.

When this day really came, I panicked even more.

"Good dumpling, good dumpling..." Gu Ziqi cried until his eyes were swollen, "You don't want Ziqi anymore? Good dumpling, don't go, don't go, okay?"

Xu Changan picked him up and wiped away his tears, "Ziqi won't cry, Hao Dumpling just went out with brother for a while and will be back soon."

"Daddy said the same thing, but he never came back again!" Gu Ziqi grabbed Xu Changan's clothes and cried loudly, "Ziqi begs for a good dumpling, don't go, don't go, Ziqi doesn't want to be alone again Now, Ziqi is only you..."

Xu Changan had a sore nose, suppressed his emotions, and kissed Gu Ziqi on the forehead, "Is that why Ziqi doesn't believe in good dumplings?"

Gu Ziqi shook his head, "Ziqi believes in good dumplings, but Ziqi is afraid of bad guys from the enemy country."

"Good boy, Ziqi is not afraid." Xu Changan coaxed him, "A good dumpling is just for beating bad guys, Ziqi, did you forget? Did the good dumpling beat that bad guy once?"

Gu Ziqi's tears kept falling, but he nodded obediently.

"So you have to believe in good dumplings." Xu Changan pinched his chubby face, "When the bad guys are finished, the good dumplings will come back."

Gu Ziqi was still worried, "Really, really?"

Xu Changan stretched out his little finger, "The good dumpling made an agreement with you, and will definitely come back, okay?"

As for whether he can come back safely, it depends on God's will.

Gu Ziqi hesitated, slowly stretched out his little finger, and hooked Xu Changan's little finger, "Good dumplings can't lie to Qi Qi, you must come back."

"Okay." Xu Changan said, "You should also eat well, listen to Steward Feng's words, and grow up quickly."

"En! Ziqi will be good and wait for you to come back!" Gu Ziqi raised his head and kissed Xu Chang'an's face before letting Butler Feng carry him away.

Gu Yao is stupid, Xu Chang'an has never been on the battlefield, this trip will be a disaster, no matter how optimistic the people in the family are, they can't help but wipe their tears.

"General Gu, ma'am, you all need to come back properly."

"The old slave will take care of the general's mansion. You can just concentrate on the war and don't worry about your home."

"If something happens, don't hold on, and send a letter to the Holy Spirit as soon as possible, asking for support."

"I know." Xu Changan waved his hand, "Don't send it off, we're leaving, you all go back."

They still stopped and watched, until the sedan chair carrying Xu Changan and Gu Yao disappeared from sight.

Xu Changan put down the car curtain, and kept holding Gu Yao with the other hand.

Not only the people in the general's mansion were worried, but he himself was also very worried, but this encounter was unavoidable, even if he had to bite the bullet, he could only go with it.

At this time, it was still far away from the frontier, Xu Changan didn't want to put too much pressure on himself in advance, forcing himself to divert his attention.

"By the way," Xu Changan took out a notebook from his long sleeve, "I almost forgot about this."

Gu Yao was attracted by him, "What is this?"

"I don't know either." Xu Changan flipped the front and back, but didn't see the title, "That day at the prime minister's mansion, Wu Ya saw your doctor, so I took the opportunity to go to Xu Guanying's room to find something related to the mysterious person. By accident, I found this notebook in a dark compartment, and secretly brought it back."

It's a pity that he has been very busy these days, so he didn't have time to take a look.

Gu Yao saw that this pattern looked familiar, "Is it an account book?"

Xu Changan opened the inside page, "Whatever it is, if it can be hidden by Xu Guanying like this, there must be something shady inside."

But I didn't want to, this time I flipped directly to the most shocking content——

Time and date: the eighth day of November in Dingyou Year.

Client: An'er and Sandi, concubines of Xu An Bang, son of Prime Minister Xu Guanying, and Meiniang, wife of Xu Anping.

Remuneration: 1000 taels of silver.

Deposit paid: 500 taels of silver.

Content of commission: Kill Xu Qianjin, the wife of General Gu Nianzhi.

Execution Date: New Year's Day of Dingyou Year.

Execution result: failed.

Xu Changan was stunned, "This is... the account books of the Evergreen Gang?"

Gu Yao never expected that the thing he had been looking for for so long was actually in Xu Changan's hands.

Before he was in a hurry to read it, Xu Changan had already quickly turned to the year before last, and stopped at the page he wanted to know the result most——

Date: October [-], Bingshen year.

Client: Prime Minister Xu Guanying.

Remuneration: 1000 million taels of gold.

Full payment: 1000 million taels of gold.

Content of entrustment: Tu Jingu General's Mansion.

Execution Date: October [-], Bingshen Year.

Execution result: success.

1000 million taels of gold bought the lives of hundreds of members of his Gu family. The word "Success" was extremely dazzling on this piece of paper, causing Gu Yao's eyes to turn red and his fists to clenched tightly.

Even if his Gu family disagreed with Xu's family and had quarrels from time to time, why did Xu Guanying kill so many innocent lives?

"Ah Yao!" Xu Changan hurriedly hugged Gu Yao who got up angrily, "Calm down first, we still have a mysterious person whose identity has not been found out, Xu Guanying can't die yet!"

"I will investigate the mysterious man myself, Xu Guanying can't stay here for a moment!" Gu Yao said ruthlessly, "An'an, let go!"

How could Xu Changan let go, but hugged him even tighter, "Listen to me, Ah Yao, Xu Guanying is just the lackey of the mysterious man, and the mysterious man is the real murderer who framed your family. We can't lose the big because of small things!"

Gu Yao paused, turned around, his face was as cold as frost, "In your opinion, the lives of hundreds of people in my Gu family are small?"

Xu Changan had never been stared at by him like this before, and his hair stood on end in an instant, "Ah Yao..."

Gu Yao can't listen to anything now, and only wants to avenge the dead soul of the Gu family, breaks him free, and shouts sharply: "Stop the sedan chair!"

Chang Shun immediately reined in his horse, "Woo—"

Gu Yao turned over and got off the sedan chair, followed by Xu Changan, "Ah Yao!"

Before he could stop Gu Yao, Fengyan hurriedly appeared, "General Gu!"

Fengyan was sent by Gu Yao to guard the prime minister's mansion, and now he is leaving his post without permission, it must not be because of any good things.

Gu Yao's heart skipped a beat, "Why are you here?"

"An accident happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion!" Feng Yan chased for a long time to catch up with them, and at this moment he was out of breath, "Xu, Xu Guanying is dead!"
