Chapter 8 Something Happened
He Ming did not leave in the end, followed Gu Xi, searched the Gu family from inside to outside, from top to bottom, and then left after not finding any abnormalities.
After He Ming left, a masked man dressed in gray-brown shorts came out of the Gu family's thatched cottage, looked deeply at the Gu family's ancestral hall where the lights had just gone out, and turned over and came out of the Gu family's yard.
After leaving the Gu family, the man quickly flashed into the grapefruit forest.
He Ming jumped out of nowhere and followed quietly.
After Gu Xi felt relieved, she knelt obediently in front of the ancestral tablet just like before. The cushion and the remaining chicken bones were all lost by her.
As soon as dawn was about to come, Gu Xu and his wife finally came back. They stood outside the door and sighed for a while before liberating Gu Xi. As for whether they had noticed the abnormality between the two old people and Gu Sheng, Gu Xi didn't know.
Gu Xi, who was liberated, was extremely sleepy and wanted to send yesterday's reply to the Women's College in Nanyuan, Lushui Academy.
But now, not only did she have eyelids fighting, but her whole body was weak, but her legs were also very painful, so she chose to wash and go to bed first.
While Gu Xi was sleeping, something happened in the academy again.
The needlework room of the academy where Gu's mother Xi and Gu's grandmother Lan were located lost. They were all expensive brocades, a total of more than ten pieces.
After several investigations, all the fingers were pointed at the Gu family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Only these two people had the ability to take away those brocades, and only they knew what kind of brocades were at a high price.
What’s important is that the last person who comes into contact with those precious brocade is the Gu family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
It is said that misfortune never comes alone, and something happened to the Gu grandfather who was in the boiler room and Gu Xu who was in the horse shed.
Gu Shi, the grandfather of the Gu family, was negligent and not only burned all the rice in the academy, but also burned most of the kitchen. Of course, this was all a trivial matter. Someone reported that Gu Shi had taken the abalone and bird's nest in the warehouse.
As for Gu Xu, the question is simpler. The horses in the horse farm he was responsible for were not only sick, but also killed several good horses.
One of them was the Western Regions sweat-blooded horse given to the academy by the late emperor. Just raising the one to death is enough for the Gu family to kill the three clans.
Not to mention that there is one of the horses belonging to Chang Yonglin.
Relying on his own as the son of Chang Mingtang, the governor of Yongzhou, Chang Yonglin directly transferred officers and soldiers from the city without the consent of the academy director and tied up all the Gu family members.
Gu Xi was awakened by someone half-wake up. Those people shouted that the Gu family was hiding secrets that were hidden and were plundering.
The two old men of the Gu family protected Gu Sheng, who was only over five years old, and stood outside Gu Xi's door.
Gu Xiteng bounced up from the bed, put on his clothes randomly, pulled some of his own private items, tied them to his waist with a characteristic cloth bag, and then opened the door and went out.
Outside the door, Chang Yonglin looked at her with his hands behind his back, pointed at her room and shouted: "Let me search in, don't let go of any corner, move everything to the square to check in public, and don't leave a single item."
The people who had been waiting behind him rushed forward and went straight into the house despite the obstruction of the two elders of the Gu family.
Gu Xi has no idea, anyway, her things are fine.
However, the two elders of the Gu family and Chang Yonglin didn't think so.
How can the things of the women in the boudoir, especially the underwear she often wears on her body?
It was a great insult to a woman. A woman who lost her reputation was difficult to survive in this feudal era.
The two old men of the Gu family swear to defend Gu Xi's reputation to the death, and did not fear the fists and feet of those people, and snatched Gu Xi's close clothes in the house.
Although Gu Sheng didn't understand what was going on, he still helped to drag those people down.
Gu Xi was ready to fight outside the house, calculating how to make a surprise victory, and took Chang Yonglin as a hostage.
Perhaps Chang Yonglin had already given orders to ignore death and injuries. The people in the room were very cruel and did not hold back at all to the two elders of the Gu family and Gu Sheng. He quickly knocked out the Gu family grandmother, broke the Gu family's grandfather's leg, and smashed the young Gu Sheng out of the window.
When Gu Sheng was smashed out, Gu Xi also took action and directly confronted Chang Yonglin from Chang Yonglin's personal guards with brute force.
As a head-on price, Gu Xi's ribs were probably broken several times, there was a big hole on his left shoulder, and two more scratches on his face.
Chang Yonglin didn't expect that he would fall into Gu Xi's hands, so he was also confused at this moment. When he came back from his confusion, his subordinates had already been forced to stop.
But facing the two old men who fainted and Gu Sheng curled up on the side and humming in a low voice, Gu Xi's anger was imagined.
She knew that Chang Yonglin was a ruthless man. Since he had set his sights on the Gu family, he would destroy the Gu family and he would never be able to recover.
Before the Gu family, Chang Yonglin had already destroyed two poor officials in the capital.
The most terrifying thing about this year is that those who make mistakes will always be justified and will never be punished. Those who are victims deserve it. Even if the truth is revealed, no one will blame those in high positions.
This law of the world is only established for the common people. Only those who have no power, no power, no wealth and will be subject to the law.
Nowadays, the Gu family is slave to the family and cannot be enemies with powerful families like the Chang family, and can only be repeatedly attacked and persecuted.
Gu Xi was so aroused by the tragic situation of his family that he lost his mind. Without thinking, he deprived Chang Yonglin of his arm. Then he forced him to order someone to ask for a doctor for the two elders of the Gu family and Gu Sheng.
"It's useless to kill me now. Your whole family has committed a death sentence, and no one can save you. If you want to live a few more days, it's best to let me go and take those two old immortals and that little villain to the square. Maybe I'm in a good mood and can still give you some fun." Chang Yonglin endured the pain in his left arm and said cruelly.
If you raise the BMW given by the late emperor to death, even if the late emperor reborn, you will not spare the Gu family easily. That would be very disrespectful. If you pursue it deeply, it would be a serious crime that would be enough to kill the nine clans.
The more I think about Chang Yonglin, the more proud he became. I thought that the thorn in my eyes had finally been pulled out. Next, I just need to remove the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion one by one, and that would be almost done.
Gu Xi didn't know why her family had committed a death sentence. She thought that those people had done something by sneaking into the Gu family last night and putting things in it.
So she asked: "Why do you say we have committed a death sentence? Could it be that there are any forbidden items in our family?"
When Chang Yonglin heard this, he knew that Gu Xi didn't know what was happening in the academy, so he kindly asked the guards who were nervously surrounded by him to tell Gu Xi the truth.
After Gu Xi learned the truth, his first reaction was to break a rib of Chang Yonglin. This matter must be related to the Chang family.
