Chapter 131 The Death of Gu Hao ([-]) Second Watch

Although Huang Zongxing was unwilling in every way, he also knew that if he didn't find out at this time, if he got involved in rebellion, the Cao Gang would be destroyed in his hands, so he strictly ordered his subordinates to stay where they were, and did not receive Orders are not allowed to walk around without authorization, and those who violate the order will be dealt with according to gang rules!

The deputy gang leaders all wanted to ask Huang Zongxing after Qin Wubing left, but Huang Zongxing didn't give this opportunity. After giving the order, the deputy gang leaders could only go back to their courtyard first.

This is what Qin Wubing and Huang Zongxing agreed on the road. Before Huang Zongxing found out, he should not meet with his subordinates alone. Not only was he afraid that Huang Zongxing would be led astray again, but he was also worried about who would have a fever and hold Huang Zongxing hostage. It's hard to be sick.

……

Qin Wubing was taken to his room, and lay on the bed with his legs up. He was really exhausted during the journey.

The old monk came faster than Lin Huai and Guo Yi, and when he entered the door, he complained: "It's not as good as Tiantai Temple, but it looks like a village built by bandits who occupy the mountain as king."

"No one insists you come, but you just want to come. Do you think you're here to enjoy the blessings?" Qin Wubing didn't even move.

At this time, Lin Huai and Guo Yi also opened the door and came in. Lin Huai asked after entering the door, "Did the third brother intentionally provoke those people just now?"

Qin Wubing didn't speak, but sat up as if waiting for something.

Soon, the four of Holmes opened the door and came in without saying a word. They beat and rummaged through the room, and then retreated silently.

Only then did Qin Wubing speak: "If you don't provoke them, how can you mess them up!"

"What did the four of them come looking for?" the old monk asked curiously.

"Look to see if anyone is hiding in the secret passage and eavesdropping." Qin Wubing said and stood up:
"We are now in a tiger's den. Those people are eager to create troubles to hurt our people, so that they can force the court to attack the Cao Gang. My prince and I analyzed before that they want to use the court's hand to push the Cao Gang into They are there for their use, now think about it, if they can’t do what they want, they will destroy this year’s water transport, and the impact on the capital will be immeasurable.”

"When does the water transportation end every year?" Lin Huai asked nervously.

"Water transportation will last for eight or nine months. Wouldn't it be just right if it was accompanied by waterlogging?" Qin Wubing raised his eyebrows and continued: "Huang Zongxing understands this truth, he is more worried about our lives than we are, but , he is afraid that he is in a dilemma right now!"

"What's wrong with him?" Guo Yi asked.

"Ask elder brother, he can best understand Huang Zongxing's mood right now. If one day, elder brother finds out that one of you and I betrayed him, how will he feel during the investigation?"

Guo Yi nodded clearly, but Lin Huai said:

"As long as the two of you don't grab the spring grass from me, you can take whatever else you want! There will be no betrayal between us brothers."

Qin Wubing raised his eyebrows again, and asked cautiously: "I'm just assuming, for example, if the two of us are together with Marquis Wu Ding..."

"How dare you!" Lin Huai immediately stared.

"Hehe, he dared, what can you do?!" The old monk looked at Lin Huai and asked loudly.

Qin Wubing scratched his forehead: "What, I mean our intentions are good, but the process may be something you don't like..."

"There is no way! If you two dare to do something like my father's nostrils, don't blame brother for turning his face!"

"Turn one over and let me have a look!" The old monk stepped forward, pointed at Qin Wubing and said, "Remember, no one is allowed to bully this baby except me! Neither is your father!"

Qin Wubing scratched his forehead again, then patted the old monk and asked: "Then, why did the Eldest Princess bully me?"

"Except for me and Yu'er..."

"What if Prince Xiang bullies me?"

"Besides me, Yu'er and Lao Jiu..."

"What if the emperor bullies me?"

"Besides me, Yu'er, Lao Jiu and the emperor..."

"Okay! You can't protect much, and the others don't need you to protect me if they are true."

"Who said that? Don't you just want to bring the fourth brother of the Lin family home to get married? I won't help you then, and this kid will eat you alive!"

Lin Huai couldn't believe it, and looked at Qin Wubing very sadly, his eyes were full of questioning.

Qin Wubing let out a guilty sigh, and said angrily, "You also believe his words? Am I that kind of person?"

"That's right, the third brother can't, and I can't!" Guo Yi said and glanced at Qin Wubing.

Qin Wubing immediately changed the topic and said: "Who of you went to see where the eldest princess is in that pavilion, how do you see it? There won't be any treasure hidden there, right?"

The old monk said with a smirk: "The brat is trying to lie to me again! This time I won't be fooled. I don't understand what Yu'er is reading. It's boring. It's interesting for you to plot people here!"

Just as Qin Wubing was about to persuade him again, the door was suddenly pushed open forcefully, Huang Zongxing said with a terrified expression: "Gu Hao died in his own room!"

"Gu Hao? What do you sell?" the old monk asked.

"It's a staff member I hired at the end of last year." Huang Zongxing's complexion was a little pale, and his speech was weak.

Qin Wubing let out an ooh, but he didn't seem too surprised, and said, "Take me to see it!"

……

Gu Hao's place of residence is in a very remote courtyard. This is what he requested, saying that he wants to be clean.

This courtyard is so remote that it is next to the cliff. There is a small bamboo forest in the courtyard. There are stone tables and benches in the forest. Qin Wubing did not enter the house in a hurry. Then he asked Huang Zongxing: "Who found the deceased?"

"Me!" Huang Zongxing replied, "I wanted to ask Mr. what is the best way to act in the current situation, but when I opened the door, I found Mr. lying on the floor in the inner room. I thought he had drunk too much wine. Who turned it over and saw that it was bleeding from the seven orifices, and it had lost its breath!"

Qin Wubing groaned, looked around again, and said:

"I'd like to trouble Master Huang to help me find a pair of gloves. I don't have time. I don't care what material they are made of. There are also masks, which can cover the mouth and nose, and can be worn on the ears, regardless of what material they are made of."

Qin Wubing even gestured and said that Huang Zongxing should hurry up and order his followers to do it.

Before Huang Zongxing's entourage sped up and ran, they saw the eldest princess rushing towards the gate of the courtyard.

"Don't bother others, I have it!" The eldest princess looked very excited, her big eyes flickering, and she gestured to the maid behind her as she spoke.

The maid took a small bag from her waist, took out a pair of snakeskin gloves and a cotton mask and handed them to Qin Wubing respectfully.

Qin Wubing is not too polite, gloves made of this material are at least stronger than cotton ones.

After putting it on, Qin Wubing said: "You guys wait outside for a while, I'm sure there is no danger, you go in again!"

The old monk nodded first, he didn't dare to mess around with this kind of thing.
