After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?

When Gu Tingye woke up from his sleep, all he could hear were noisy shouts.

Especially the voice of his most caring wet nurse, Matron Chang, sounded a little hurried and anxious.

Gu Tingye lifted the quilt covering his body and stood up from the pavilion in the middle of the courtyard with a frown.

He did not rest in the house last night because after revealing Zhu Manniang's true identity, he was in great pain and just wanted to calm down in the cool night and sort out his confused mood.

But he never expected that a noisy sound would come, and Nanny Chang brought him a bolt from the blue, which made him even more painful.

Zhu Manniang and his brother ran away secretly and abducted Changger.

At this moment, Gu Tingye felt a heart pain, his face turned pale, and beads of cold sweat kept flowing down.

"Go find him, go find him!" Gu Tingye said gritting his teeth, holding the hands of Nanny Chang and Shitou.

"Okay, sir!" Shitou immediately called out and rushed out of the yard with a group of servants.

"Mammy, please help me find Jingyuan and Zecheng. They must have a solution..."

In the past few days, Gu Tingye has experienced a series of events, including his father's death, being kicked out of the Gu family, his lover's conspiracy, and his child being kidnapped. He is in a trance.

Now the only people who can support him are his two children, Shitou and Nanny Chang.

When Gu Tingye thought of the evil woman who took Chang Ge'er away, he felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.

As instructed, Nanny Chang immediately went to the Han and Sheng residences to report the news.

Some time ago, Sheng Changbai was simply reprimanded by his father Sheng Hong, who told him to stay away from Gu Tingye to avoid dragging down his reputation.

But Sheng Changbai doesn't care about these at all. As a friend and a close friend, he always believes in Gu Tingye's character and nature.

As soon as he heard about the incident, Sheng Changbai sneaked out of the house and prepared to visit Gu Tingye.

As a result, he was blocked at the back door by Sheng Minglan, who had been paying close attention to the development of the situation, and took the snacks he made to "Second Uncle Gu".

Sheng Changbai was moved and praised Minglan for her kindness and loyalty. He also thanked Minglan on behalf of Gu Tingye.

When they arrived at Tianshui Lane, Han Ming was already sitting in the yard, toasting with Gu Tingye.

Seeing Sheng Changbai in a hurry, Gu Tingye had a smile on his pale face.

"How is it? Have you found the child?!" Sheng Changbai asked as he put the lunch box on the table.

"We've already started chasing him! I think he'll be there soon." Han Ming said calmly.

"What's going on?!" Sheng Changbai looked at the two of them in some confusion.

"This is all thanks to Ma Ma and Jingyuan..." Although Gu Tingye looked pale, he was full of energy and seemed to have recovered from the pain.

It turned out that when Nanny Chang secretly followed Zhu Manniang, she discovered that she was secretly selling real estate and farms, as well as some of Gu Tingye's deceased mother's relics.

In order to protect some of the relics, Nanny Chang spent a lot of money to redeem them.

As for the remaining real estate, Zhuangzi had no spare money, but he also learned from the middleman that one of the buyers behind it was the Han family.

This gave Nanny Chang an idea, and she went to find Han Ming to find out.

Han Ming was not aware of this at first, but after careful investigation, he discovered that his family had actually acquired a lot of farms, some of which belonged to Gu Tingye himself. This made someone laugh!

He also took the initiative to promise Nanny Chang that he would pay more attention to Zhu Manniang's situation.

In fact, Han Ming had already arranged people to secretly monitor Zhu Manniang near Tianshui Lane.

Nanny Chang's request was just Han Ming's secret trick to make it more reasonable.

So Han Ming knew about the situation as soon as it happened and asked Yong Zeng to take Shi Tou and follow the surveillance personnel to catch the person.

After hearing Gu Tingye's account of the entire incident, Sheng Changbai couldn't help but sigh, "It still has to be you, Han Jingyuan!"

"These are all minor matters. The key is, what are you going to do once we catch those two?"

Han Ming took a sip of tea and savored it carefully.

"I really want to skin them alive and pull out their tendons!" Gu Tingye said with a gloomy face.

"Then we can't do it in Bianjing City. There are too many eyes here, and it's not convenient."

"If you need to, just take them outside the city..." Han Ming said in a gloomy tone and stroked his neck with his hand.

After these words were spoken, Sheng Changbai's face changed and he looked at Han Ming with horror.

"It seems a bit inappropriate to handle it this way?!" Sheng Changbai asked in a low voice.

"Haha, I'm just here to give suggestions. You're the one who'll do the specifics!"

Han Ming curled the corner of his mouth and pushed the brewed tea towards Gu Tingye and Sheng Changbai.

"If we send him to Kaifeng Prefecture...would it be better?" Sheng Changbai suggested nervously.

"What can I say? They insisted on taking their child with their brother to visit their hometown. Even if you are in Kaifeng Prefecture, you can't use your power to suppress others!"

Han Ming raised the tea bowl, sniffed this year's new tea, raised his eyebrows and said.

"So we can only let them go for nothing?"

Sheng Changbai also felt that this was not acceptable. He believed that the guilty must be punished, but the punishment should be appropriate to the crime. Small punishments should be given for small matters, and large punishments should be given for large matters. He must follow the rules and regulations.

"So let's just bury it directly! It saves worry, time and effort!" Han Ming opened the food box that Sheng Changbai took, took out a piece of crispy biscuit and chewed it slowly.

"Hmm? Not bad! It's your sixth sister's cooking, right? It's quite good. I'll ask the cook at home to learn a few tricks from her someday."

"This is what Minglan brought for Zhong Huai. Why are you so greedy?" Sheng Changbai took the food box away and put it next to Gu Tingye.

"Huh? No, Zecheng, why are you so stingy? I just want to eat a piece of your pastry."

Han Ming helplessly threw everything left in his hand into his mouth.

"I can't do it myself, otherwise it will be easy for someone to find fault with me..." Gu Tingye looked at Han Ming with a hint of indifference.

"Pull out Zhu Manniang's tongue, make her deceased brother write a confession, and then send her to Kaifeng Prefecture on charges of child trafficking."

"Those who kidnap and sell people as slaves shall be strangled; those who kidnap and sell them as retainers shall be exiled 3,000 miles; those who kidnap and sell them as wives, concubines, or children shall be sentenced to three years' imprisonment."

"Let's just charge her with the most serious crime of slavery and hang her in the Kaifeng government office!"

A cold look flashed across Han Ming's eyes, and he spoke in a chilling tone.

It was not until then that Sheng Changbai realized that Han Ming and Gu Tingye were determined to kill Zhu Manniang.

But he didn't understand. Gu Tingye used to be a very soft-hearted person. Even when facing his stepmother Xiao Qin who deceived him, he was angry but also had a hint of pity.

Why would he kill Zhu Manniang, the person he truly loved?

Sheng Changbai's eyes moved and he saw Han Ming staring at him. For a moment, he felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and his back began to feel cold!

It's him!

Countless thoughts suddenly emerged in Sheng Changbai's mind, that is, Han Ming instructed Gu Tingye, or he induced Gu Tingye to change his mind and put Zhu Manniang to death.

But he didn't understand. What kind of hatred or grudge was there between Han Ming and Zhu Manniang? Was it simply a vent of anger? Or was it something else?

"Zecheng, the tea is almost cold. Try it. This is a new trick my wife and I learned." Han Ming showed a harmless smile.

"I think Jingyuan's method is feasible. Let's do this when they come back." Gu Tingye raised the tea bowl and drank it slowly.

"So what are your plans for the future?" Sheng Changbai shook off the messy thoughts in his mind, calmed down and asked.

"Jingyuan hopes that I can go south with him to participate in the rebellion suppression work in Jiangxi." Gu Tingye's face regained a little color after drinking tea.

"Do you agree?" Sheng Changbai asked with a strange expression.

"No, I'm still thinking about it. My mind is a little confused right now." Gu Tingye sighed.

"No matter what, Zhong Huai's future path is to take root in the army." Han Ming gave his own thoughts.

"That's right, there's really no other way." Sheng Changbai agreed.

The three of them fell silent, drinking tea quietly and waiting for news outside the yard.

It was not until dusk that Yongzeng and Shitou, covered in dust, returned to the villa and reported the situation in a low voice.

"They were blocked on a dense forest path fifteen miles outside the south city. Now both of them are tied up and imprisoned in a farm outside the city."

"Brother Chang was also brought back. He seemed frightened and fell asleep in the carriage!"

Listening to the two people's reports, the hostility in Gu Tingye's eyes slowly rose. He signaled Shitou to listen carefully, whispered Han Ming's method to him, and sent Shitou to do the job.

"I'm really sorry to trouble you two today!" Gu Tingye stood up and bowed to Han Ming and Sheng Changbai.

"What are you doing? Get up!"

"Are you insulting me?!"

Sheng Changbai and Han Ming quickly reached out to help.

"I'm grateful for your kindness!" Gu Tingye looked at Han Ming and said in a firm tone.

"As friends, don't be so polite!" Han Ming patted the other person's shoulder.

"Have I worked in vain today?!" Sheng Changbai spread his hands and said with a smile.

"How could that be?! I also remember the feelings of you and Sixth Miss." Gu Tingye laughed.

"That's right, only by eating and drinking well can you be in a good mood! Sixth Miss is a considerate person!" Han Ming said while pulling Sheng Changbai.

"Come on, don't you just want your chef to steal your skills?! I'll ask for you later."

Sheng Changbai couldn't stand Han Ming's foodie look.

"Zecheng is still the best to me!" Han Ming smiled and put his arm around the other's shoulders.

A few days later, when Ningyuan Hou Gu Yankai was being carried out of the mansion in coffin, Gu Tingye, dressed in mourning clothes, was watching from the corner of the alley with his two children.

As the procession approached, Gu Tingye, Chang Ge'er, and Rong Jie'er knelt down and kowtowed several times to the coffin in the procession...
