Chapter 84
Gu Chongyang couldn't help being horrified, the dark guard was seriously injured, suffered such a big change, his psychology was close to collapse, he was running around starry night, his physical strength was too exhausted, it was already a miracle that he could survive to the Qingyang Hou Mansion.

How can he withstand Gu Zhengrong's angry slap in this state?

Sure enough, Gu Zhengrong slapped him, and the shadow guard, who was already on the verge of falling, immediately fell to the ground.

Gu Chongyang was in a hurry and couldn't help asking: "Brother, what are you doing?"

The hidden guard was gasping for breath, and it took him a long time to get up and kneel down. He looked at Gu Zhengrong and everyone in the room with despair in his eyes: "Although the villain is an insignificant dark guard, he also understands that the master humiliates you." The reason for the servant's death, the villain should have died in Hamiwei with the Lord Hou, and he has been lingering until now just because of the entrustment of the Lord Hou on his deathbed, to bring the words back to the mansion. Now, the task of the villain is completed, the villain People can also follow Lord Hou."

Hearing this, Gu Chongyang yelled that it was not good, and was about to step forward to stop him, but the hidden guard had already bit his tongue with all his strength and killed himself.

Gu Chongyang stomped his feet in anger.

Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists, and the event of the Marquis of Qingyang's negligence has already happened and cannot be changed. The most important thing right now is to find out whether the person who colluded with the Wacha army inside or outside is actually the concubine that the Marquis of Qingyang accepted. That's the crux of the problem.

Gu Chongyang originally planned to ask the hidden guard, but Gu Zhengrong slapped him to death.How could she not be angry: "brother, you are too reckless, I still have a lot to ask him."

"Hmph!" Gu Zhengrong stared at the corpse on the ground with resentment and said, "It is not a pity for such a person to die. My father is already dead, so what else is there to ask?"

Gu Chongyang shook her head angrily, she really couldn't make sense with this kind of unscrupulous young master.

The eldest lady also realizes that something is wrong at this moment, but she doesn't want to embarrass her son in front of everyone, especially when her husband is dead, the son is the future successor of the Qingyang Houfu, and she must safeguard his dignity .

"Okay, Brother Rong, I know you are sad when something like this happened to Lord Hou, and I feel as sad as you..." The eldest lady clutched her chest and said with a choked voice, "I'll take care of it here, don't worry about it." .”

After finishing speaking, she urged Nanny Jin again: "Hurry up and find someone to carry the corpse out."

As soon as she finished speaking, a woman at the second door stumbled and ran in in panic: "Ma'am, madam, it's a big deal... not good... Jin Yiwei, many Jin Yiwei came outside and surrounded our house. "

The news was like a bolt from the blue, not to mention the eldest lady Hao Shi, the other people in the room were also stunned.

However, after a while, everyone reacted.

The second young lady, Gu Chongzhu, was so frightened that she hugged her mother and screamed: "Mother, why did Jin Yiwei come to the door? These people are too courageous, hurry up, ask the servants to close the door, and don't let them in."

How ignorant!Jin Yiwei wants to come to the door, if you don't cooperate, it is rebellion and disobedience.They don't care if you are the daughter of the Marquis Mansion or not, it is not impossible to kill you on the spot.

The second lady was also frightened, and she burst into tears on the spot: "My God, what did the Marquis do, we don't know anything. Those Jinyi guards are like wolves and tigers, and they want to take us down. Prison? Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, think of a way quickly."

Da Furen's face is haggard and flustered, how can she still be shrewd and steady?

Some of the maids and servants were trembling, some were crying softly, and some were crying loudly, panicked and at a loss.

"Brother!" Gu Chongyang stepped forward and said to Gu Zhengrong: "Father and second uncle are not at home, and third uncle is weak and sick. Right now, you are the pillar."

Gu Zhengrong looked at Gu Chongyang as if awakened from a dream: "Fourth sister, you are right, I... what should I do?"

"Right now, Jin Yiwei has come to the door. Our family must send someone to inquire about the situation. We can't sit here and wait for death." Gu Chongyang said anxiously: "You ask the housekeeper Wan Wan to help, and see what they mean? Are we being ordered to guard us, or are we going to be sent to jail and ransacked our house?"

Send an edict to prison and ransack your home!
After hearing Gu Chongyang's words, Gu Zhengrong was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He was terrified, and his lips trembled and said: "I won't go... I can't go, those people are Jin Yiwei, the Jin Yiwei who kills without blinking an eye, you can't let me go to die !"

The coward!

Gu Chongyang was so angry that his face turned green: "Aren't you very majestic just now? There is no other man in the family, if you don't go, who will?"

"Let the second brother go!" Gu Zhengrong suddenly pointed at Gu Mingxi and said, "The second brother is only one year younger than me, let him go."

After hearing this, Gu Mingxi added a bit of fear to his already sincere and sincere face: "I won't go, my uncle is gone, and my eldest brother is the heir, so if I want to go, my eldest brother will go."

The two brothers shied away from each other, Gu Chongyang stomped his feet angrily, the two could not be counted on, so she had to go to the eldest lady: "Auntie, what is going on, you should also bring out a charter."

"I'll go." The Da Furen's face was bloodless, and she reluctantly said: "Fourth girl, help me up, I'll go and see what's going on."

Gu Chongyang and Jin Momo, one on the left and one on the right, almost supported the eldest lady.

"Nonsense!" There was only an angry shout from outside, accompanied by the sound of crutches hitting the ground heavily: "Brother Peng's daughter-in-law is like this, how did you get away? Jin Jin, you are also an old man in the family, how can you let the four Miss is messing around with your wife? How can she go out and negotiate with the people of Jin Yiwei like she looks like a concubine?"

"Old lady of the long house!"

Seeing Mrs. Cui standing under the veranda surrounded by Nanny Ding, Mrs. Ying and five or six maids, Gu Chongyang felt that he had found his backbone all at once.

She hurried over and said, "Madam, Jin Yiwei has already arrived at the door, what do you think should be done?"

"Soldiers come to block the water and cover it with earth. What kind of storms and waves have never been seen in the Gu family's century-old foundation, so what is it!" Mrs. Cui said: "Go in and talk."

Gu Chongyang hurriedly welcomed Mrs. Cui into the room, and sat in the upper seat.

The eldest madam had tears in her eyes, her face full of guilt: "Eldest aunt..."

"Okay, I already know everything, don't say anything, just sit down first, and I will ask you."

When Mrs. Cui was speaking, she was calm and sophisticated, and Gu Chongyang also calmed down with her calm and sophisticated appearance.

The people who were originally in a state of anxiety also calmed down a lot because of Mrs. Cui's arrival.

"How is this going?"

Looking at the body of the hidden guard on the ground, Madam Cui asked with a sinking face.

Gu Chongyang said: "It's the secret guard next to Lord Hou, who came back from Hamiwei all the way to report to us."

"Why did you die here?" Mrs. Cui scolded, "Hurry up and find someone to carry the body down, Jin Yiwei. If people from Jin Yiwei see this, even if nothing happens, something big will happen."

Nanny Jin woke up like a dream, and hurriedly found someone to carry the body and left.

"The rumors spread outside say that Master Hou is collaborating with the enemy and treasoning the country. I absolutely don't believe it. The son of the Gu family will never commit treason." Mrs. Cui glanced at everyone's faces, and then said: " The most important thing right now is to find out where Lord Hou is now. Second, to find out whether the person who is cooperating with Waci is the concubine of Lord Hou."

"Then what did the dark guard say?"

"Old madam, Master Hou was caught by Wacha. In order to avoid humiliation, he drew his sword and killed himself, and died for the country."

"Kill yourself!" A look of sadness flashed across Mrs. Cui's face, and then she said: "Since it's suicide, there must be a dead body, and there must be news that the people in Jinyiwei will find out about this. As long as it is not collaborating with the enemy and treason, everyone here These people don’t have to worry about their lives.”

She asked again: "Then what happened to Ji Ji?"

Everyone was silent and no one answered.

When Mrs. Cui saw this, she couldn't help but thumped in her heart. She said: "Why don't you speak? If you don't speak now, do you want to wait until you are caught by Jin Yiwei and tortured in the prison?"

"I don't know." Gu Chongyang shook his head and said, "Before I came and asked, the dark guard bit his tongue and committed suicide."

Mrs. Cui's complexion suddenly fell: "He rushed all the way to the capital to report the news, but he bit his tongue and killed himself before he could speak clearly?"

"It's Brother Rong." The second lady stood up and complained: "Brother Rong slapped the hidden guard and said that the hidden guard was trash, so the dark guard bit his tongue and committed suicide."

"Confused!" Mrs. Cui's husband and son passed away successively, and only one grandson was still sick and precarious all the year round. Years of widowhood and many unsatisfactory things made her tempered with joy and anger, but after listening to the second lady's words, she I couldn't hold back the anger in my heart: "When such a big thing happened, you didn't want to solve it, but wanted to beat others. Brother Rong, you are also the son of everyone. Your father is gone now, you should take care of the family. Support up your karma, look at your reckless temper, how can you let people feel at ease to hand over the Qingyanghou Mansion to you!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room changed color.

Gu Zhengrong was okay, he just felt uncomfortable because he was reprimanded in public.

But the eldest lady Hao’s heart suddenly became aroused, and there was no other reason, just because the title of the Hou’s mansion was originally from the long house, whether it is the old Qingyang Hou or Gu Zhanming, who just died Qingyang Hou, the titles are all different. It's just borrowed.

If the old lady of the long house is strong enough to prove it, their second house may return the position to the long house.

How can that be done!

The position of Marquis can only belong to her son, Brother Rong. Why should the Chang Fang, a sick man who can't stand up, compete with her son?
