Chapter 151 Poked (Pink 240+)

(Thanks to Chu Yuechan for He Shibi! Have a great weekend everyone!)
When Gu Zhan saw Shan Qing at the official office, he was taken aback.Shan Qing has been in charge of the Gu family recently. At this time, he came here in a hurry. Could it be that something happened at home?

When he heard Shanqing say that Gu Chongan had an accident, he couldn't help but his eyes darkened, and then he calmed down and asked, "What accident happened?"

Could it be...could it be...that he was ambushed like Kongcui Mountain?Thinking of the worst outcome, Gu Zhan turned pale for a while.

"The little one doesn't know too well... The steward of the inner courtyard asked the young one to notify the old man, and ask the old man to go back immediately." Shan Qing lowered his head and didn't look at Gu Zhan, fearing that something might be revealed.
Shanqing felt a little inappropriate for telling such a big lie, but his younger sister Shuilu said that the situation was urgent, so he must say so.Although he said these words, he was afraid that Gu Zhan would see something, and it would be difficult to get over it.

Shan Qing's demeanor, in Gu Zhan's view, just happened to mean that something serious happened to Gu Chong'an, so big that even the servants dared not go into details.In this way, Gu Zhan believed that something happened to Gu Chong'an even more.

He didn't have time to think about it, and hastily explained a few words to He Zhao, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and hurried out of the official office of the Ministry of Officials, riding the horse brought by Shanqing to the Gu family.When he was passing through Taiping Front Street, he didn't even bother to get off his horse, he just wished he could get off the horse and run faster, faster.

When Gu Zhan was young, he followed his grandfather Gu Yuning to the battlefield, so even though he was a civil servant, he could ride a horse.

Gu Zhan originally thought that the Gu family would be in turmoil right now, and even thought they would hear crying.However, after he hurried back home, he found that everything was peaceful, and the situations he expected had never happened.

The steward in the front yard even came to greet him with a smile: "Master, you are back." The steward smiled, as if nothing happened at home, as if there was no accident in Gu Chong'an.

Gu Zhan was worried about Gu Chong'an's situation, seeing the steward's appearance, he didn't stop to ask, but still walked quickly to the Diezhang Court.Until, he met Gu Xiang, the steward next to Gu Chongan.

Gu Xiang was the same as the steward in the front yard, when he saw Gu Zhan, he respectfully came up to pay his respects.His expression was soothing and his steps were steady, without showing the slightest panic or worry.
Now, no matter how worried Gu Zhan was, he sensed something was wrong.He stopped in his tracks, and asked calmly, "Where is Chong'an, what happened to him?"

Gu Xiang heard Gu Zhan's question out of nowhere, and replied subconsciously: "The master took the third young master to Yunshan Academy, and the old slave doesn't know what happened."

Even Gu Xiang didn't know that Chong'an had an accident, and thinking about the performance of the servants at home, Gu Zhan knew that there was only one possibility, and that was that Chong'an had no accident at all!
So, did the steward who changed to Shanqing misheard, or lied on purpose?
Gu Zhan turned around, looking at Shan Qing with his eyes like sharp knives.At this moment, Shan Qing's face showed anxiety and astonishment, as if he didn't expect Gu Xiang to say that, he opened his mouth to say something hastily, but stopped dejectedly.

It seemed that he didn't know what was going on in front of him.That's right, how dare a small steward tell such a big lie?Thinking so, Gu Zhan believed that he didn't know the inside story.

So, who is in the inner house who spread these words, and what is the purpose of deceiving himself back home?No matter who it was, no matter what the reason was, it made Gu Zhan so angry that he couldn't bear it.
He has always believed in running the family with kindness, and this is the case with his servants. He is more tolerant and less harsh. Over the years, he has only dealt with some servants in the case of Youyanyuan.
But this time, he was really angry!There is someone in the family who dares to spread such words, so what is there not to dare to say?What rules are there in such a family?Sooner or later it will fail!
Gu Zhan had a rare gloomy expression, and was about to ask Shan Qing who he had followed orders from, when he saw two people, one old and one young, slowly stepping out from the Chuihua Gate.
The one at the front was a girl, she was wearing a long dark green and dark flower cloak, which completely covered her whole body, only showing her delicate and moist face.She has an immature face but a calm expression, a slim figure but a steady demeanor, the combination of these contradictions gives her a unique temperament.
Against the backdrop of the wrinkled old lady behind her, her temperament is even more obvious, like a green calyx plum rooted on a jagged rock, which makes people unable to move their eyes away.
Gu Zhan seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then raised his eyebrows in surprise, is this A Bi?He didn't see Abi until the time when Shangyuan sacrificed to the heavenly officials. She followed Fu's side delicately and softly, just like an ordinary girl.Why haven't we seen each other for a few days, it's like a different person, with a completely different demeanor.

When Gu Yan saw Gu Zhan, he first saluted Gu Zhan, then straightened up, and said softly but firmly: "Grandfather, it was A Bi who sent someone to invite Grandpa home, because A Bi had something urgent. Sue my grandfather, and ask my grandfather to forgive me."

She said these words lightly, but Gu Zhan's heart was shocked.What is Abi talking about?Such a big lie was told by her. What is the urgent matter? What does she do as a little girl?
Gu Zhan looked suspiciously at Nanny Feng beside Gu Yan, but only saw Nanny Feng nodded. Obviously, Nanny Feng knew what A Bi did, which made Gu Zhan even more suspicious.

However, this is not a place for questioning and getting angry. He just frowned and glanced at them, said "Follow me" and quickly walked to the Pine Age Home.When he was leaving in a hurry, he kept adjusting his emotions. Now he really wanted to know what the eldest granddaughter was doing!
In Pine Age Courtyard, Gu Zhan stopped listening to Gu Yan's words, and stood up in shock. His face changed drastically, and he asked sharply, "Abi, what are you talking about?!"

People who seldom get angry usually will make people feel boundless terror and intimidation once they really get angry. Gu Zhan's appearance at this moment is extremely terrifying.

But Gu Yanquan pretended not to see it, and she calmly repeated what she just said: "Grandfather, His Highness Ninth Prince sent an urgent letter to Abi, saying that the second uncle behaved differently and seemed to want to do something to the emperor. Grandfather, please come in immediately." The palace will bring the second uncle back!"

Gu Yan said so.She couldn't bring Shen Du into it, but she could say that the news was provided by the Ninth Prince Zhu Xuanzhi.She was once trapped in the cellar with Zhu Xuanzhi, and they had an extraordinary friendship, and the age difference between the two was too far, so there would be no charming things.

When Gu Zhan's old servant Gu Zhong heard these words, his expression also changed.It's the second master again... The old master had someone monitor the second master before, but now Miss Sun said the same about the second master again.Is there something wrong with the second master?
Gu Zhan stared deeply at Gu Yan, trying to see something in her face and eyes, but he only saw calmness and fearlessness, and a faint flash of desperateness.

In an instant, many things flashed through Gu Zhan's mind, and in the end, only Gu Yan's desperate eyes and the suspicions he remembered were the only ones that settled in his mind.Wei Yan's stamped letter, Gu Qingchen's confirmation, and Shen Du's ambush in Kongcui Mountain.

All these are intertwined, which made him make an instant decision. He ordered in a deep voice: "Prepare the horse, I will enter the palace immediately! Ah Zhong, hurry to Yunshan and let Chongan come back! Open the Zhongxiao Hall immediately, A Bi and I will go to the palace immediately!" Mother Feng, wait in the Zhongxiao Hall!"

After all, without even looking at Gu Yan and Nanny Feng, he hurried out of the courtyard, jumped on his horse and ran towards the palace.Just now he rushed back from the imperial city in a hurry, and now he is rushing to the palace city.

It took a short time to ride a horse to the imperial city, but Gu Zhan was anxious, so he felt that the time was very slow, and the imperial city was very far away, and he suddenly felt that the world was so close.He kept urging the horse under him with the whip, and rushed towards the imperial city just like he ran on the battlefield back then.

Seeing Gu Zhan rushing over, the guards of the Palace Gate Bureau thought that something serious had happened to the official department, so they only asked a little, and after seeing Gu Zhan showing the auxiliary talisman, Bian immediately let him in.

The Ministry of Officials is the province of Shangshu, and its status is particularly important among the six departments and one hundred divisions. Therefore, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials will have a provincial talisman, but the color is much lighter than that of the three provinces. Officials in Dading are commonly known as Fufufu.

Gu Zhan entered the palace with the auxiliary talisman, and then walked straight to the Zichen Palace under the leadership of the servant.Even if he really wanted to go to the palace to find Gu Chongting immediately, he would have to go to Zichen Palace to pay respects to Emperor Chongde first.

Before arriving at the Zichen Palace, Gu Zhan had already learned from the servant that there was nothing special happening in the palace except for the sudden fire in the Shangshi Bureau.
Hearing that Shangshi Bureau suddenly caught fire, Gu Zhan's heart was lifted instead.The Shangshi Bureau is under the jurisdiction of the Dianzhong Province, so...then is there anything wrong with Gu Chongting?

Gu Zhan came to the outside of the Zichen Hall anxiously, but fortunately Chang Kang said that the emperor wanted to have a rest, and if Mr. Gu had nothing important to do, he didn't have to go in.Otherwise, Gu Zhan was worried that he would be disrespectful in front of the imperial court.

After such a toss, Gu Zhan saw the distraught Gu Chongting in the palace.

When Gu Chongting saw Gu Zhan, he was taken aback, especially Gu Zhan's stern expression made him feel uncomfortable.Why did Gu Zhan appear here at this time?so unusual!

However, Gu Zhan just said: "There is something important at home, come back with me!" After finishing speaking, he turned around and strode away from Dianzhong Province without explaining anything to Gu Chongting.

At this moment, Gu Yan and Nanny Feng were walking towards the Zhongxiao Hall in the northwest direction.Thinking of Gu Zhan rushing to the palace, for some reason, her eyes were moist.Then, she blinked and forced back the soreness in her eyes, as if there was nothing worth shedding tears.

When approaching Zhongxiao Hall, Gu Yan suddenly smiled at Nanny Feng, and confirmed one thing for the last time: "Mommy, the materials on Dongcheng Street have been sent to Gantang Yard, right?"

Mother Feng nodded and said, "I sent it away years ago, don't worry, girl."

Gu Yan lowered his head, and it took him a long time to escape: "So, I feel relieved."

She raised her head, and saw Zhongxiao Hall in the distance was still majestic and solemn, and the couplet was still hanging firmly, just like the first time she saw it after being reborn.
Accumulate good fortune and good deeds
No poverty, no widow, no leaning

This time, Gu Yan wants to see if the Zhongxiao Hall with this couplet can reflect the ugliness of the Gu family!

(Outside the chapter: It’s sad. I know that if someone likes a book, it’s inevitable that someone doesn’t like it. It’s not easy for me to write a book. I go to work every day, take care of children, and code words. I complained in my book review area after I got a pirated version. For example, peeping at my body for nothing, and criticizing my poor figure, I don’t like it! I don’t have a deputy moderator for the time being, so I can only manage the book review area by myself. Deleted, please forgive me.)
