Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

So we started preparing to move into our new home.

Once he was busy, he naturally stopped worrying about Gu Xu. Zhen Suhang had been in ancient times for a long time and was well-informed. He helped him a lot with the move. He was in charge of many purchases and even arranged the carriages for the trips.

During this period, he received a letter from Gu Xu, saying that he would be back before moving and asked him to be patient.

So with a little anticipation and nine bits of anxiety, the day of moving arrived.

Gu Xu and the convoy that came to welcome Lord Dun Xin to his new home arrived in front of the bookstore.

Gu Yue took Shi San and some symbolic luggage and walked out the door.

He saw Gu Xu riding a tall horse, with a sedan chair decorated with red flowers beside him, and Wu Yan, Wu Huo, Wu Yun and Wu Feng riding horses each, following behind the sedan chair. Seeing Gu Yue coming out, Gu Xu dismounted and came in front of him, with a slightly unnoticeable smile on his face.

Gu Yue noticed with his sharp eyes that the man was wearing a red silk flower on his chest.

Hey buddy, why does moving house look like getting married?

It feels weird!

Gu Xu did not hold his hand in public, but turned around and led him to the sedan chair, personally opened the curtain and invited him to get in.

"No carriage? I can just take a car. This is so embarrassing." Gu Yue said.

He had never been carried by anyone in his past life or this life, so he was not used to it.

"Not prepared." Gu Xu's face seemed calm.

"...Okay." Gu Yue was unwilling to walk, so he had to get on the sedan chair.

Fortunately, the interior of the sedan was quite normal, without any strange decorations, and Gu Xu didn't find anything to cover his head...

With so many people watching, no matter how bold Gu Xu is, he would never do that!

The sedan was swaying all the way. Gu Yue opened the curtain and saw Gu Xu riding a horse on the side. Seeing him sticking his face out, he leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Gu Yue felt the gazes of the people on the road, and his scalp tingled for no reason, so he pulled the curtain of the sedan chair.

……

The bookstore was in a good location, so it didn’t take too long to get to the new house.

Gu Yue got out of the sedan chair and looked towards the roadside.

This was a large mansion with a very grand front door, which was even more luxurious than Hele's mansion in Liuli Town. There was a plaque on the door with the four characters "Dun Xinbo Mansion" inscribed on it. There was a festive red silk hanging on it, a Chinese character "喜" was pasted on the door, and a red silk was tied to the door knocker. When the eunuchs, servants, and maids in front of the door saw the sedan chair stop, they all came forward and bowed down in front of Gu Yue.

"Welcome, Lord!"

The shouts were loud and uniform, but when Gu Yue heard this group of people shouting like that, he felt like he was seventy years old.

"Please stand up." Gu Yue was a little nervous and said stiffly.

He didn't like people kneeling to him, it scared him, but that was the times and he was at the gate, so it wasn't easy to stand out.

The eunuch was the same eunuch who announced the decree that day, and he looked very happy.

He sang loudly: "The auspicious time has come--"

The door of the mansion in front of me opened.

Before Gu Yue moved, the servants waiting in front of the door moved first. A man and a woman, each holding a big red lantern, walked into the main gate first. Wu Yan followed closely behind, and led others to hang up two strings of firecrackers.

The eunuch led Gu Yue and Gu Xu into the main gate.

This house has no entrance garden - the main courtyard is directly behind the screen wall. Stopping in front of the screen wall with the Chinese character "喜" pasted on it, the eunuch brought up two dusters tied with red silk.

Gu Yue and Gu Xu took the duster and symbolically swept the four corners of the main door and the screen wall. Soon, the sound of firecrackers rang out outside, crackling and making a lively scene.

Then they went into the main courtyard. The dozens of servants sent by the emperor were put to good use. They shuttled back and forth, opened the doors and windows of each room, and lit up the prepared red lanterns. Red lanterns were hung on the four corners of each house, and at first glance, it was really festive.

Gu Xu whispered, "Now we have to offer sacrifices to the kitchen god and then light a fire. There will be a housewarming party in the evening. Don't worry, I have arranged everything."

"Okay." Gu Yue nodded repeatedly.

After offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God, the servants began to prepare for the evening banquet. After giving the eunuchs some silver and seeing them off, the two of them finally had some time to talk.

"This time the housewarming ceremony is relatively simple." Gu Xu said, "The full ceremony is too complicated."

"Simplicity is the truth." Gu Yue said that he was very satisfied.

"Just eat and drink at the party tonight," Gu Xu said. "If you don't want to go, just say you're not feeling well."

"It's okay." Gu Yue waved his hand, "I haven't asked you yet, what have you been doing these two days?"

The two sat down at the round table in the main hall.

"Cooperate in testifying and interrogate Yin Shun." Gu Xu said, "It's not going well."

"What?" Gu Yue became nervous.

"Mu You went crazy on the first night he arrived at the prison, and nothing could be learned from him." Gu Xu said, "Yin Shun refused to confess anything even if he died."

“Will it have any impact on the conviction?”

"No, the evidence is irrefutable. If they don't confess, it will only cause trouble." Gu Xu suddenly frowned, "There is another thing that I find very unusual."

He recounted in detail the entire process of capturing Mu You that night.

Gu Yue frowned.

"He really said that?"

Gu Xu nodded.

"You also think that Mu You is not right?" Gu Yue asked, "Look at what he said, is it human language? The emperor is not angry?"

Gu Xu said: "Yes. This person was caught by us so easily that he even spoke nonsense and couldn't even say a word of defense."

"Something's wrong." Gu Yue said.

Now he had no time to analyze Qin Zhaoyue's motives for making him feel more present in front of the emperor. Gu Yue was only considering one thing, that is, whether there was someone behind Mu You.

"Looking at the entire Ganzhou case, all the plans were extremely cautious and detailed." Gu Yue said, "The planners not only considered the possible loopholes in the exchange of information and set rules in advance to avoid leaving any handles; they also arranged the cleanup work after the incident was over."

"Those wealthy businessmen?" Gu Xu asked.

"Yes. Every time they sent a message, they would ask different people to write it, use code names, never sign their names, and use the right poison to kill people. And there is this particularly smart Yin Shun." Gu Yue said, "Yin Shun is the mastermind behind this, but he doesn't seem to be the one behind this. His performance at the time was also very mediocre."

Gu Xu poured him a cup of tea.

"Looking at the style of the whole plan, it seems to be the work of Wen Qing." Gu Yue said, "Oh, by the way, how are Wen Qing and the Third Prince?"

"They must have come back secretly." Gu Xu said, "I saw them mixed in with the team on the way here. Judging from the current situation, they have not been discovered."

"Wen Qing is Mu You's man. Will Mu You give him away?" Gu Yue became worried.

Ever since he knew that Wen Qing was not their enemy, he was completely relieved.

"It has nothing to do with us." Gu Xu said, "We are not sure whether what he said is true."

"Think carefully, this person hasn't caused us any trouble." Gu Yue said, "The one in Yu Ning Mansion doesn't count."

"It's not a bad thing to be careful." Gu Xu said.
