Chapter 83
A gatekeeper was so blank, Chang Feipeng couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "I said, even if you broke into the official house, do you think the Protector of the Country would be afraid?"

Lord Protector? !

The gatekeeper's eyes widened, wanting to cry but not crying.

Last night, the master called him into the study, and told him to guard the gate, and never let anyone from the Lord Protector enter the house.

It's a good thing now, because he was sleepy, so he let people in.

Apparently, his job is out of the question.

Thinking of this, the gatekeeper didn't shout, and just sat down on the ground, thinking about his future.

Chang Feipeng stood at the door, waiting quietly for the young master and young lady to come out.

The two brothers and sisters who entered the mansion were led by Gu Yuexuan and went straight to the third uncle's residence.

When Gu Yuexuan kicked open the door, a man and a woman in the room hurriedly got up from the bed in shock, took a closer look and found that it was their nephew and niece, they couldn't help being shocked, "Yuexuan, Yueling? How did you come in?"

Gu Yueling sat on a chair at the side and smiled quietly, "Of course they came in through the gate, Third Uncle and Third Aunt, both of you get dressed, let's have a good talk."

Gu Chengquan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe it, that cold little girl was actually that niece who stayed in the plum blossom yard all year round and refused to come out - Gu Yueling.

He heard that she had entered the Royal Academy to study, but he thought she was just going to see her, and he couldn't stay there for a long time, because he knew how weak this niece was.

He quickly put on his clothes, then sat down with his wife, facing the two children opposite.

Seeing that they were all dressed neatly, Gu Yueling stopped being polite, and asked straight to the point: "Third Uncle, you went to see my mother that day, what did you talk to my mother about?"

"This……"

Gu Chengquan's complexion changed, and then he replied with peace of mind: "It's nothing, just said a few homely words."

Seeing that he still didn't admit it, Gu Yueling sneered: "Really? If a few commonplace words can make my mother be convicted and beheaded, the third uncle is absolutely indispensable."

When Gu Chengquan heard the words, he became angry from embarrassment, and slapped the table, "Are you your attitude towards elders? It seems that the second sister-in-law didn't teach you how to respect elders at all!"

Gu Yueling raised his hand, stopped his fury, and said quietly: "Okay! Don't use your status as an elder to pressure me, I, Gu Yueling, don't accept this kind of thing. Tell me, after your father disappeared, you No longer have any contact with my family, why did my mother write you a letter that day, and you quietly went to the Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing to talk to my mother secretly? If you continue to hide the truth, then don’t blame me for killing my relatives righteously! All these years , the money you are greedy for in the Ministry of Rites, there is no one hundred thousand silver, but there is also seventy to eighty thousand."

When he mentioned Gu Chengquan's embezzlement of ink and silver, his face turned pale and his lips trembled in fright. He never thought that how could such a private matter of his be known by this yellow-haired girl?

No, there must be a problem!

Gu Yuexuan's strangeness fell into Gu Yuexuan's eyes, and he was heartbroken, "Third Uncle, are you really greedy for ink? Do you know that this is a capital crime!"

"Nonsense! I'm not greedy, and you have no proof, so don't slander me here!"

Gu Chengquan glared at each other, and refuted Gu Yuexuan's words with a loud roar.

Even if it was the truth, he would never admit it.

Seeing that he didn't see the coffin, Gu Yueling didn't cry, and she stopped being polite, "Since the third uncle said no, then wait for the evidence and go to Jingweiyi's official hall today. At that time, third uncle, go to Jingweiyi by yourself and take care of yourself." Explain the situation. Third Uncle, I would like to advise you that what people are doing is what God is watching. Don’t treat everyone as fools. My mother has soft ears and listened to your slander. It’s just that my eldest brother and I are not fools. What have you done? , if you don’t say it now, it doesn’t mean I can’t find out! Brother, let’s go!”

She stood up, turned and left.

How could she be soft on this kind of person, she just wanted to push him to the ground and beat him hard.

It's just that her rationality told her that she couldn't show her true nature now, she needed to find a way to meet her mother in the prison before the real thing.

Gu Chengquan looked at the pair of brothers and sisters foolishly, and swaggered away from his sight until his wife, Mrs. Lin, tugged at his sleeve, "Master, what that girl Yue Ling said, could it be true? Master, no matter what, we can't let them leave."

A word to wake up the dreamer!
It made Gu Chengquan more courageous. Once his greed for ink was found out, his official career would come to an end.

So, he quickly ran outside and shouted, "Come on, take them down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yueling smiled strangely with his back turned to him.

That's right, what she wants is to stay in this mansion!

If she didn't stay, how would she investigate her mother's treason?Since the last person mother saw was the third uncle, it meant that the third uncle was seriously suspected.

No matter what, she wanted to check the third uncle's house to see if she could find any clues.

Most importantly, she didn't know why Gu Xiuzhi asked her mother to write a letter to her third uncle. If the person who framed her mother was the third uncle, then what role did Gu Xiuzhi play?
The two brothers and sisters, plus Chang Feipeng, were all detained in the mansion by Gu Chengquan.

The place where they were impounded was a secluded house. This house was the residence of the servants. Later, there were more houses and it became a utility room.

Card wipe!

The lock outside the door was locked, and Gu Chengquan said viciously outside: "Yuexuan, Yueling, for your own good, the third uncle has wronged you to stay here these days, after your mother's matter is over, I will come again let you out."

Gu Yuexuan said angrily: "Third Uncle, do you really want to be so heartless?"

"Nephew Yuexuan, you have to understand that the third uncle has no other choice."

Gu Chengquan answered these words lightly, turned around and left immediately.

The three people who stayed in the utility room did not ask any more questions, and they were not even guarded.

Gu Yueling looked at the cobwebs in the room. Dust covered the sundries, no matter how you looked at it, it could be seen that no one had visited this sundry room for a long time, let alone cleaned it.

Gu Yuexuan was a little confused, "Yueling, what should we do next? We can't be trapped here forever!"

"Big brother, don't worry about it. Since Third Uncle keeps us in his house, it's natural that he has some concerns."

Gu Yueling smiled slightly, and then said: "We can leave here tomorrow at the most. Taking advantage of the limited time now, why don't you look for third uncle here, if there is any other evidence of treason, and clear your mother's name .”
