The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 50 The fisherman’s profit

Today, he was mining at a fixed location as usual, when he came across a middle-aged man who suddenly hit his head against a wall and died.

He happened to know that man, and they had chatted several times in the past few days. He had a better-sounding name than his own, Zhong Sheng. He had a good impression of Zhong Sheng. After all, this man was so loyal and honest. Also, how could someone who had just entered the mine be like him, so cold-blooded and stand by and watch.

After all, he still retained some innocence, but unfortunately he died after just a few days. Although he felt a little regretful, this emotion disappeared very quickly. After all, what did he, Ergou, do to care about other people's deaths?

Er Gouzi thought numbly in his heart.

Er Gouzi, who was thinking about nothing, just raised his head because his neck was a little tired, but he suddenly heard a very loud roar, as if rocks were collapsing.

Could it be that the mine collapsed? !

He was startled suddenly, and the others also showed the same horrified and frightened expressions.

Then they saw stones not far away slowly flowing towards them, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Er Gouzi was also very frightened, but it was only for a moment and he quickly calmed down.

Seeing the people around him panicking and at a loss as to what to do, and Ergouzi standing there calmly watching the stone in front of him about to reach his feet, Gu Junqing, who was hiding in the dark, immediately noticed him.

Then she took advantage of the chaos and quickly kidnapped him.

Er Gouzi didn't react and was taken to a more secret and remote place by Gu Junqing. At this time, there was a commotion outside, but it was quiet here, which made Er Gouzi panic, because his intuition told him that this man could enter the mine and kidnap him without anyone noticing, and now his hand was on his neck. If the person behind him wanted to kill him, it would be easy.

"Sir, you captured me, but do you want to know something? I will tell you everything I know, and I only ask you to spare my life."

That's quite tactful.

Gu Junqing snorted coldly, and then the strength in his hands became stronger and stronger, as if he wanted to strangle Ergouzi to death in the next second.

They might find out something is wrong later, so we shouldn't stay here for long.

Then Gu Junqing took Er Gouzi to an absolutely safe place, let go of his hand, and he fell to the ground.

Er Gouzi didn't dare to complain.

"Where is the master who asked you to mine?" Gu Junqing went straight to the point.

"Little, little one knows, but what is the connection between you and that person?"

Er Gouzi certainly knew who the master Gu Junqing was talking about, but he was just trying to see if the person in front of him was an enemy or a friend of his master. However, it seemed like they had a grudge against each other.

In this case, why not use this person to kill Huang Zhenxing?

That’s right, it was Huang Zhenxing, but there was more than one person, because Huang Zhenxing had a nobleman above him who was even more powerful than him, but he only knew this much. After all, he was just like an ant to these powerful families and could be trampled to death at any time.

Gu Junqing narrowed his eyes and could naturally see the calculation in this man's eyes. From the looks of it, he and his master seemed to have a deep hatred for each other. Yes, with the miners now in such a miserable situation, there must be no one among them who is not resentful or hateful.

But she didn't want to be used by others, so she said:

"You just need to tell me where your master is. As for the rest, you don't need to ask. Lead the way!"

Being urged by her like this, Ergouzi could no longer try any clever tricks and could only take Gu Junqing obediently to a remote and damp small bamboo house.

There was no one inside, and I didn't know whether Huang Zhenxing and others were nearby.

She walked in with her men.

What he saw was some clean clothes neatly laid out on the couch, some fresh-looking exquisite pastries on the bamboo table, and a teapot and teacups filled with tea. Gu Junqing looked around but didn't find anything else. After all, it looked really simple and elegant, not like Huang Zhenxing's extravagant style of spending money like water.

"Is this the place your master often comes to?"

Gu Junqing looked at him suspiciously.

"This is another master who occasionally comes here to rest. I mentioned it on the way just now. The person we often see here is Huang Zhenxing, the governor of Suzhou. However, he is only in name only. In fact, the master who even the yellow dog thief has to obey his orders seems to be a powerful official in the capital. Even a small governor like him dare not offend him, let alone an ordinary citizen like me who was born in the grassroots..."

Later, Ergouzi talked about how wronged and miserable he was, and how bad Huang Zhenxing was. He spoke in a very proud manner. Gu Junqing did not seem impatient and listened carefully.

But I heard that every time at this time someone would come to the mine to check out the situation here.

This person is either someone above Huang Zhenxing, or a trusted confidant sent by his master to supervise the work.

I don't know who is coming here. If it happens to be someone above Huang Zhenxing, then it would be killing two birds with one stone. What's more, it is a powerful family in the capital.

They might be at the mine in the east at this time.

After saying this, Gu Junqing did not stay here for long. She took her men and headed east again. Coincidentally, Duan Jun was also in the east, so she could go find him.

It took about an incense stick of time for the two to arrive at the eastern mine.

Sure enough, among the ragged miners, the delicate and clean white shirts in the middle of them stood out.

Huang Zhenxing was wearing a dark blue brocade robe. If a tall nobleman wore it, he would look elegant and graceful. However, Huang Zhenxing's bloated figure made the clothes look out of place.

In addition, his face was full of flattery and his attentive behavior was completely inconsistent with his friendly and kind appearance.

The person who could make Huang Zhenxing so flattering must be a high-ranking official from the capital. Gu Junqing narrowed his eyes and took a closer look.

When she saw clearly that the man was Yu Er, a close confidant of Yu Xihou, she opened her eyes wide in surprise.

It turned out to be someone from Yu Mansion. Thinking of Yu Mansion, Gu Junqing suddenly remembered the last time Huang Zhenxing killed all those tomb-robbing gangs.

And those tomb-robbing gangs happened to be members of the Chu family. Based on her understanding of the Chu family, Chu Shen would definitely take revenge on Huang Zhenxing.

However, looking at the current situation, if Chu Shen kills Huang Zhenxing, Yu Xihou will find out. For Suzhou, it only relies on this one mine. Without Huang Zhenxing as a cover, if a new prefect is replaced and the new prefect is the emperor's man, if he finds this mine, he will definitely take it for himself, and then Yu Mansion's financial resources may be severely cut off by more than half.

Yu Xihou is not the kind of person who likes trouble and uncertainties. What's more, if someone challenges his authority, he will retaliate and make the Chu Mansion fall completely.

In this way, the Chu family and the Yu family are facing off. The Shen family can either keep a non-interference attitude and protect itself, or take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits. In any case, the two families will definitely fight to the death. After all, it seems that the Chu family has been almost destroyed by Qi Yunjin. However, it is still a century-old prestigious family, and it cannot do without some foundation. If the Chu family goes all out, the Yu family will not be much better off.
