Chapter 291: End of Ganzhou
Gu Yue refused Wu Ye's offer to accompany him, and only took Shi San with him, and the two of them rushed back to Ganzhou together.
If Gu Xu had not refused, the shadow of Tumeng's father's prophecy would still be lingering in his heart, and Gu Yue even wanted to leave Shi San to Gu Xu for self-defense.
Shi San seemed to see his worry, and he said, "Gu Xu is very strong."
Are you talking about martial arts?
Gu Yue did not respond.
Logically speaking, Gu Xu is just following his own story. He is the son of destiny in Turtan's words, and he is also the male protagonist. He is favored by heaven, so everything should go very smoothly.
He shouldn't be worried, but he is still worried.
His breathing, heartbeat, and eyes that always hide something, Gu Xu is more like a living person. He is so different from the Gu Xu described in those texts. He is no longer a flat character.
……
Gu Yue and the other person returned to Ganzhou through the secret passage.
After handing Gu Xu's secret letter to Wu Yan, Gu Yue's mission was officially completed.
On the first day, there was a slight rumor in the Ganzhou camp, which was forcefully suppressed by Qin Zhaoyue.
On the second day, Qin Zhaohong brought food, military pay, and 5,000 Yinlong Guards and Chang'an Guards to support Ganzhou.
On the third day, scouts reported that there seemed to be civil unrest in the Western Di territory. Qin Zhaoyue acted decisively, ordered his troops to march out of the city, and attacked from both inside and outside, defeating the rebellious army of Zuo Wang.
On the fourth day, victory was reported from the Western Di territory. Qin Zhaoyue joined forces with the Right King's army and engaged in a fierce battle with the Left King's army. The Left King was shot dead on the spot, and all his generals were beheaded or captured.
On the fifth day, Qin Zhaoyue returned with a great victory.
……
The Pinghu County Magistrate was not on duty at the county government office today and stayed at home.
He hadn't noticed anything unusual at first, but yesterday he asked someone to invite Liu Kang to his house for a drink, and the servant who delivered the invitation reported that Liu Kang's pawnshop had closed down, and had been closed for quite some time.
The county magistrate naturally knew what these people were doing in private. Seeing Liu Kang missing for no reason, he panicked and immediately sent someone to find the iron official Meng Jincheng to inquire about the situation. Meng's house was fully staffed, but his servants said that Master Meng had not returned home from the gold mine for a long time.
The county magistrate paced back and forth in the room. He sent away the maids who were serving him, as he did not want anyone to see his irritability.
After a while, he stopped, took out the key from the small box in the treasure chest by the wall, and planned to go to the study.
Something was not right. This incident might attract people's attention. He had to quickly check the study to see if there was any evidence of his involvement in this matter!
The county magistrate opened the door and saw many people standing in front of it.
He was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
The leader took out a page of something and said, "The Crown Prince's Donglin Guard is investigating a case. According to the informant's testimony, you are closely related to a gold mine theft case. Come back with us immediately!"
The county magistrate was stunned and could not say anything.
……
"How many are there?"
"Who knows? We have already transported more than a dozen times today."
The Ganzhou soldiers whispered to each other.
Wu Feng drove a gold and silver carriage carrying two escorting Donglin Guards and slowly drove into the Ganzhou camp. After passing the sentry post, he stopped at the edge of the central parade ground.
"These few cars are the last batch." Wu Feng jumped down the driveway, "All the vehicles in the underground hall have been delivered."
"Thank you for your hard work." Lin Feng, the Donglin Guard in charge of the handover, said with a smile. He waved his hand and asked people to open the boxes for inspection, and then drove the car to the corresponding location according to the category of the items in the boxes.
"Are those things brought back from Xidi?" Wu Feng asked.
Lin Feng had gotten to know him well over the past few days, so he didn't shy away from answering, "Yes, the Right King didn't care about so much gold and silver at all and asked for it to be sent back... He was trying to curry favor with our Crown Prince."
"So much silver is not something that a wealthy businessman in Ganzhou can come up with." Wu Feng said.
"Yin Shun committed suicide, and Yin Bai only managed the Ganzhou area. No one knows where else wealthy merchants have been tricked." Lin Feng followed the whole process and naturally knew the details of the case. He said, "Anyway, no one wants to come forward to claim their silver."
"Unfortunately, although the incident is clear this time, there is no solid evidence to implicate Mu You." Wu Feng said, "We almost turned the General's Mansion upside down, but we still couldn't find any evidence of their correspondence."
"If those captured generals all cry out for injustice, we really can't do anything to Mu You." Lin Feng shook his head, "But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have a way, otherwise he wouldn't have asked us to close the net."
Wu Feng thought, if it weren’t for the master and Boss Gu, your prince would have been dead long ago.
But he didn't say it: "You are busy, I have something else to do and I'll leave first."
Lin Feng nodded: "Go ahead."
……
Wu Feng entered Ganzhou City, looked around, and made sure that no one was following him, then he slipped into an alley.
He opened the door of the third courtyard at the entrance of the alley and sneaked in.
Gu Yue, who was sitting in the yard, saw how cautious he was and said helplessly, "Is it necessary to do this?"
"Have!"
Wu Feng said seriously, "It was our negligence last time that caused you to leave the city and hide in the middle of the night. Wu Ye is really... Could it be that he has been with the prince for so long that he is not familiar with the rules of Wu Sect? When I get back, I will ask the master to let him copy the sect rules ten times."
"How is the camp going?" Gu Yue was more concerned about this. "Has Gu Xu returned?"
"Not yet. He is in contact with the Right King and is also investigating various things in Xidi..." Wu Feng did not say it too bluntly.
Gu Yue nodded.
"Oh, by the way, please sit down and have some water." Gu Yue then realized that Wu Feng was still standing, and quickly asked him to sit down.
Wu Feng looked at him mischievously and sat down on the stone bench.
Gu Yue pretended not to understand: "What's going on in the general's mansion? Have you found any clues?"
Wu Feng's expression suddenly became serious: "I was just about to talk about the General's Mansion...Yin Bai is dead."
"What?!" Gu Yue was shocked: "What's going on?"
"He was locked up in the backyard, with two men from the Wumen, two from the Jing army, and two from the Donglin guards taking turns to guard him." Wu Feng said, "At midnight, Yin Bai said he had a stomachache and wanted to go to the toilet, so the three guards took him to the toilet."
"Soon after Yin Bai entered the toilet, there was a thud inside. The three guards went in to see what was happening. They saw Yin Bai slipped and fell on a stone by the wall. He was unconscious and there was a pool of blood on the ground."
"What did you step on, daddy?" Gu Yue was shocked. What kind of death was this?
"Yes." Wu Feng looked a little embarrassed. "He was just unconscious, but Wu Ye was not here, and he died after two days. But he has explained everything he could, without leaving anything out. After I reported it to Qin Zhaoyue, he didn't take it seriously. But I think I should tell you, Boss Gu, maybe..."
"Do you think there is something wrong with his death?" Gu Yue looked at Wu Feng with admiration.
"The people who stayed in the general's mansion have already investigated and found nothing wrong, but I just think it's too coincidental." Wu Feng scratched his head, "But if we say that he was killed, it's a bit far-fetched. Why didn't they do it earlier? Yin Bai has interrogated him five times, and he has also signed a confession..."
Gu Yue frowned.
