Warm spring enters Hou's door
Chapter 108 Cut off the hair
Chapter 108 Cut off the hair
The heart that the Wu brothers had just let go instantly hung even higher.
Wu Yanji still kept his hope, he trembled and shouted: "You, you dare! I am the prince of the Wu family, my father is the nephew of Her Majesty, and Her Majesty has always regarded our brother as her own grandson. General love. If there is something wrong with us, Her Majesty the Empress will not let you go!"
As he said this, a young servant from the Wu family came over quietly, holding a sword in his hand, and approached Fufengzi quietly.
He raised the sword and was about to make a move, but he didn't want Fufengzi to look like he had eyes behind his back, so he immediately turned around and was lucky enough to strike the hatchet in the air——
Click!
A slight sound was heard.Then, a stream of blood gushed out, all pouring on the heads and faces of the Wu brothers.This little servant was split in half by him!
"My God! It's terrible!" Seeing this, Gu Tianyuan shouted in a pretentious manner.
Du Yi's face turned pale with fright, and his small body swayed from side to side for a few times, finally gaining a firm foothold.
As for Gu Tianci, he was stunned by what he saw.
"Kill, kill!"
He pointed out that before he had time to call out, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
The Wu brothers also had a buzzing in their heads at this time, they were completely dumbfounded.
This man actually dared to kill someone!And still use this hatchet to chop directly!
So simple and rude, but so shocking!
At first they didn't look down on Fu Fengzi at all, they just thought that this unattractive man was just Gu Caiwei's concubine, this time he came to Yongxing County under the name of a master swordsmith, just wanted to fish in troubled waters, and by the way, continue to have a private relationship with Gu Caiwei .As for whether he is the real Fufengzi, it is not certain!After all, with Gu Caiwei's background, can she know Fufengzi?Still so familiar with Fufengzi?Just kidding!
But now, after Fufengzi slashed wantonly, especially after he cut Wu Chongxun's closest servant in half, his image has undergone earth-shaking changes in their hearts——
He is a demon!The life-threatening Yan Luo crawled out of the eighteenth floor of hell!
Compared with him, Du Juanqing's ability is not enough!After all, Du Juanqing still reasoned with them anyway, but this person didn't have a few words at all, so he just did it when he came over!And it's such a big move as soon as you make a move!
And when their minds were in turmoil, they heard Fu Fengzi's cold voice: "What is Your Majesty the Empress? Even if I kill you all, she can't catch me!"
The Wu brothers were shocked for a moment, and felt a chill go directly to their bones.
They felt as if they, too, had been cast into the icy hell.There was still a thick layer of blood on their heads and faces, and they could barely open their eyes, but their nostrils were filled with the pungent smell of blood, and hearing this man's presumptuous declaration in their ears, they shuddered.
At this moment, life-saving is the top priority.The two people immediately changed their attitudes, got up quickly, kowtowed directly to Fufengzi, and hit the ground with their foreheads, such a soft ground was knocked loudly by them, one can imagine their strength How big is it.
"This hero, we were wrong, really wrong! Please spare our life! As long as you spare us, I will give you whatever you want!" The two shouted vying for the first.
Du Yi's little fellows were amazed at the scene before them.
Du Yi's face was no longer pale, his body was no longer shaking, and there was even a hint of joy on his face.He quickly pulled Gu Tianyuan: "He is so powerful! Why didn't you tell me that he is so powerful yesterday?"
"I said it! I said my brother-in-law is inferior to him, but don't you like to hear it? Then I ran away in anger." Gu Tianyuan curled his lips, but immediately a smug expression appeared on his little face, "But it's not me Blow, Brother Fang's reputation is well-known in Jianghu, although it is mainly because he is a young apprentice of Yang Mingzi, and his sword-making skills are very superb. But everyone who knows him knows that he was sent by his old man to learn from many masters since he was a child. Learning martial arts, he was brought home when he was 12 years old. So don’t look at him as tall and not strong, in fact he is very strong. When we were playing outside, he did all the work of chopping wood!”
The corners of Du Yi's mouth twitched.
"Such a powerful person was used by you to chop firewood. You are too reckless."
"How can there be? Although he has a good ability, doesn't he have many opportunities to display this ability? We are also letting him practice the basic skills so that he won't be unfamiliar. We are helping him!" Gu Tian Yuan retorted solemnly.
Du Yi's reaction was to roll his eyes directly, he would stop talking nonsense with him.
Hastily raised his eyes to look over to Fufengzi, who was still holding the hatchet, standing in front of the Wu brothers. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and he couldn't help murmuring: "If only I could become like him As good as it gets.”
"It's not easy to become as powerful as Brother Fang's! His abilities are acquired with countless blood and sweat, and ordinary people can't do it at all. I once wanted to learn from him, but in reality It was too hard, so I finally gave up. And you...you are so thin, and your father loves you so much, how could he be willing to let you go through that hardship?" Gu Tianyuan couldn't help but whispered again.
But the more he said that, the more determined Du Yi's thoughts became.
"I can bear this hardship. As long as I make up my mind, Father will not stop me."
Gu Tianyuan frowned instantly. "Are you really planning to do this?"
The two little guys here are whispering their ears together, but Fu Fengzi over there doesn't care how Wu Chongxun brothers kowtow and beg for mercy.After he chopped down a few people who wanted to sneak attack, he asked Gu Caiwei: "Have you thought about how much to cut into?"
The corners of Gu Caiwei's eyes twitched.
"Brother, can we stop being so violent? These two people can't be chopped off yet."
"Why? They have already bullied you like this. If you let them go this time, they will definitely fight back in the future. If that's the case, why not get rid of them now, and it's over!" Fu Fengzi said.
"Then you'd better kill them, and immediately kill all the people related to the Wu family here, and then go to Chang'an City, and kill Wu Sansi, Wu Chongxun and their cronies. So many people, you Can you finish chopping with the hatchet?" Gu Caiwei asked angrily.
Fufengzi frowned slightly. "There are indeed too many people, so I need to prepare a few more knives."
When the Wu brothers heard this, they were so frightened that they went limp, and fell down again with a puff.
Gu Caiwei was unable to support her forehead.
"Although most of the Wu family have no skills, they are still powerful compared to ordinary people. With the backing of Her Majesty, they have developed a lot of power. If you really want to kill them all, It will take at least a year and a half. Even if you are willing to do this kind of thing, I am not willing to do it! Why did you get entangled with this kind of person in your wonderful youth? You could have done so many serious things Yes!"
Hearing this, Fufengzi's brows slowly relaxed.
"You're right. It's not worth spending too much time on these people. But, I still don't want to let them go like this."
"It's impossible to just let them go. No matter what, if they dare to bully me, we must teach them a lesson. It's best to make it unforgettable, so that they will remember it firmly for the rest of their lives!" Gu Caiwei shouted.
Fu Fengzi nodded.
The Wu brothers were already so frightened that they were so weak that they couldn't even get up.As a result, hearing Gu Caiwei say that again now, they almost lost their souls.
"What do you want to do again? Didn't we do something to you today? In the end, it was you, you made us miserable!" Wu Yanji couldn't control it at all, and tears flowed outwards non-stop.
Gu Caiwei sneered. "The one who flirts first is cheap. If you didn't come to trouble me first, I would fight back? So everything you have asked for now!"
After finishing speaking, she ordered Liuli and Xiaofanger respectively: "Liuli, go and bring me some scissors. Xiaofanger, ride a horse to the mountains to find Lord Hou, and tell him to get back quickly! If he can't come back, then he will never come back!"
"Yes!"
Liuli and Xiaofang'er responded quickly, and they turned around and ran away.
Soon, Liuli came back with a few scissors. "Lady, what do you think of these?"
"It's pretty good." Gu Caiwei nodded, picked up a handful, walked up to Wu Chongxun, and lifted his hair.
Wu Chongxun immediately tensed up all over. "What do you want? You can't—"
But before he finished speaking, there was a click, and the jet-black hair fell down one after another, and landed on his face.
When Wu Chongxun reached his lips, the shouting stopped abruptly.He widened his eyes and looked at the picture in front of him, then suddenly seemed to have come to his senses, and let out a stern cry from his mouth - "No!"
Wu Yanji watched his cousin's black hair being cut off by Qi Gen, and he was also frightened out of his wits.
Seeing Gu Caiwei walking towards him with scissors again, his eyes burst into tears.
"Mrs. Changning Hou, please don't cut my hair, you can't cut it! If you want to cut it for me, how can I have the face to go out to meet people in the future?"
But why would Gu Caiwei listen to him?
The more Wu Yanji begged, the more obvious the sneer on her face became. "Why didn't you cut you? Now there is nothing else I can do to vent my anger except to cut off your hair."
At this moment, Du Yi also came to his senses, he ran over cheerfully. "Ma'am, I'll help you!"
Then he pushed down Wu Yanji who was trying to struggle.
Gu Tianyuan also followed, imitating the example and holding him down.He even took the initiative to untie Wu Yanji's bun and lift his hair up. "Sister, you can start cutting from here, it's simple and convenient!"
Gu Caiwei went down with the scissors, and sure enough, Wu Yanji's hair was also cut off.
"Ugh-"
Immediately, Wu Yanji heard a humming from his mouth, and then his body collapsed like a ball of cotton.
That's all.After a while, why did Gu Caiwei feel that she smelled urine?
She hurriedly looked around, and Fu Fengzi who was beside him had already sneered: "So the so-called prince Wei only has the guts? You just cut your hair, and you're scared to pee?"
Gu Caiwei quickly lowered her head to look, only to find that the muddy ground under Wu Yanji's body was already wet, and the range of wet spots was still spreading to the surroundings.
This person was so frightened that he peed his pants!
Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan also quickly stepped back holding his nose.
"This person is really useless!" Gu Tianyuan complained angrily.
But Wu Yanji was no longer in the mood to refute.
Today, the two brothers experienced the darkest day in their lives.First, he was threatened by Fufengzi with a hatchet, and then Gu Caiwei had his hair cut in public... His body, hair and skin were treated by his parents, so they should not be damaged.They have carefully maintained their black hair for more than ten years, and they have always been proud of such black hair.But now, this long hair was completely ruined by Gu Caiwei's scissors!
This is even more shameful than killing their lives with a single knife.
They would rather Gu Caiwei let Fu Fengzi split them into eight pieces just now!
But Gu Caiwei didn't.And they themselves...even if they lost their hair now, they would not be willing to die.
Therefore, the two of them lay on the ground as if dead, and they didn't even have the strength to move their fingers.
At this time, Du Juanqing finally rushed back after hearing the news.Returning with him are the servants of the household department and the servants of the military department.
How come they came back so fast?It was less than half an hour in total!
Hearing the message from the maid, Gu Caiwei immediately winked at Gu Tianyuan: "Goro, hurry up!"
Gu Tianyuan immediately took out a small porcelain bottle, and waved the medicine powder inside towards Wu Chongxun brothers and their guards.
Then, when Du Juanqing and his group rushed over, the group of people got up on their heads and started shouting. Two or three hugged each other, fighting and roaring.
Seeing this, Du Juan paused.
Seeing this, the two servants of the Ministry of War and Housekeeping Department changed their expressions drastically, and hurried forward quickly.
"Two servants, please wait a moment!" Seeing this, Gu Caiwei hurried over and stopped him.
The more she stopped, the more anxious these two became.Especially when they saw Wu Chongxun and Wu Yanji brothers in the crowd!
"Mrs. Changning Hou, what's going on? The king of the county and the prince, the two of them... what's going on?" The servant of the household department tidied up his tongue for a long time before he stammered out the question.
"Hey!"
Gu Caiwei immediately let out a long sigh. "I don't know what's going on. Early this morning, just after we finished our breakfast, we heard someone report that Gaoyang County King and Prince Wei's son didn't know what was going on, and they suddenly brought their guard Xiao He was running all over the Hou Mansion, yelling at everyone, scaring the hell out! Our Hou Mansion had very few guards. Yesterday, the Hou Ye went to the mine and took away another batch. The rest was not enough. Thanks to Fu Fengzi, he helped us drive these people to the back garden. Originally, we wanted them to vent their anger here enough and calm down before talking. Unexpectedly, it has been so long, they They are still yelling, even more violent than before!"
"That's right, we're all scared to death!" Gu Tianyuan hurriedly added, "Especially the king of Gaoyang County and the son of Prince Wei, the two of them seemed crazy, they didn't know where to find a pair of scissors, Just cut your own hair, we can't stop it!"
The two servants looked at the situation in front of them, and then listened to their words, the blood on their faces faded.
However, Du Juanqing carefully observed the expressions of Gu Caiwei, Fu Fengzi, and Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan from a distance. When he saw Gu Tianci who was still lying on the ground without knowing his personnel, his eyes flashed. Understood.
He hastily strode forward. "No matter what, let's hurry up and find a way to let Gaoyang County King and the others stop making trouble, and then ask the doctor to treat them."
"Yes, that's how it should be!" The two servants nodded hastily.
It's just... Look at the crazy appearance of the group of people in front of you, someone has already bit off the ear of the other party!
The person whose ear was bitten off screamed wildly, with blood flowing from his ear, but he didn't know how to protect himself, but continued to shout and rushed to the next person.
These people are crazy!
And it's not an easy task to deal with madmen.So they are in trouble.
But Du Juanqing gritted his teeth and ordered Du Ren to call the guards from the Hou's mansion. Everyone tried their best to catch all these people and knock them out one by one.
These jobs seem simple and crude, but there is really no way around them.At any rate, the comatose Prince Gaoyang and his party stopped going crazy, and they stopped biting or arresting people!
Seeing that all these people were brought down, Du Juanqing nodded again. "Hurry up, send them all back to the wing room, and then invite the doctor to treat them!"
"Yes!" Du Ren hurriedly led people down to make arrangements.
Soon, the imperial physician accompanying them arrived.It's just that the imperial doctor took the pulse of these people one by one, but he didn't find out why. He just frowned and said: "This old man is still inexperienced, and found that the pulses of the prince and his son are not abnormal except that they are too strong. .The old man has thought over and over again, but he can’t come up with a clue. In this case, please invite the local Wu Zhu to come and see it!”
The implication is to imply that Wu Chongxun and his party are not sick at all, they are bewitched!
Du Juan frowned, and he nodded immediately. "The Marquis knows."
He turned his head and told Du Ren to invite the famous local wizard over.
Yongxing County is located in the territory of the ancient Chu State, which advocated witchcraft, and there were all kinds of witchcraft here.Until now, this place is still the soil where all kinds of witches thrive.
So, after Du Ren went out for a few meetings, he brought back an old man with a skinny face.
"Master Hou, this is the most powerful wizard in Yongxing County." He said to Du Juanqing.
Du Juan nodded and saluted the old man. "The situation of the guests in our house must have been explained to you just now. Now, please go and find out what's going on!"
The old man nodded quickly and immediately entered the house.
After entering, his complexion suddenly changed, and his body immediately twisted into a posture that ordinary people could not imitate, and he began to mutter words, but they were all things they couldn't understand.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the room became a lot more eerie.
It took less than half an hour to go back and forth between Wu Chongxun and Wu Yanji's bed before the old man finally stopped his movements, and his face and posture returned to normal.
The Minister of the Household Department and the Minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs couldn't hold back any longer, they rushed to ask: "What's going on? Did you see any problem?"
"I see." The old man nodded.
"Then tell me quickly!"
"They offended the mountain god, and now they are punished by the mountain god!" The old man responded loudly.
Everyone present was shocked.
"Why?" Hubu's servant hurriedly asked, "They are doing well. Every day, they just travel around the mountains and rivers. At most, they pick some wild fruits and game on the mountains. Why did they offend the mountain god? Could it be...they are Accidentally hurt the fetish on the mountain, so you were blamed by the mountain god?"
"The mountain god is tolerant, how could he condemn the world for such a trivial matter?" The old man shook his head immediately, "I have heard the mountain god just now, the real reason is that these two people walk around the mountains and forests with people every day, and every time they arrive They dug wantonly in one place, ignoring the creatures all over the ground. After digging, they left everything and left, not even cleaning up those poor corpses. Those who died in vain reported to the mountain god, resentment Gathering, the mountain gods can't stand it anymore, so they will punish them."
These words instantly changed everyone's expression.
The Wu brothers have been running up the mountain every day recently. They claim to be free to go hunting, but the others are not stupid, how could they not know their plans?It's just that the Wu family has always been lawless, and they didn't do too much to obstruct the iron ore they had discovered this time, so naturally everyone can only turn a blind eye and close one eye, and let them mess around.
In the end, who would have thought that these two people were so reckless when they went to the mountains and forests to search for iron ore, and they would cause such a big disaster?
The Minister of the Ministry of War hurriedly asked: "So now, what should we do to make the mountain god take back the punishment?"
"The mountain god said that these two sinners have committed serious crimes, and they have already caused complaints from the spirits of flowers and plants in the mountains. They don't deserve to be forgiven at all. If you insist on seeking forgiveness for him, you can only do more good deeds in order to move the heavens. Maybe the mountain god will change his mind and let the two of them regain their sanity." The old man replied slowly.
The implication is that these two people are likely to be like this in this life?
The faces of the two servants became very complicated again.They quickly looked at Du Juanqing: "Marquis Changning, what do you think should be done now?"
Du Juanqing was also sullen.
"The matter has come to this point, and there is no other way. Now we can only collect some money to repair the mountain temple in the mountain and add some incense. In the future, we will send more people to patrol the mountain to stop other attempts to mess up in the mountain. Those who ran away were driven back, and the creatures in the mountains were given a clean space."
"Naturally!" the servant of the household department nodded hastily, "this money is not much, our household department can pay all of it!"
"Okay." Du Juanqing was not polite, and nodded straightforwardly.But immediately he added, "Also, since such a big incident happened, we must report it to the imperial court as soon as possible."
The two servants immediately looked embarrassed again.
"Do you really want to do this? Why don't you wait any longer, maybe the county king and the others will be fine in two days?"
Du Juanqing looked at these two people. "Since we have differences on this matter, let's discuss it together! What do you two think?"
The minister of the household department and the minister of the military department immediately exchanged glances, and then they both nodded. "In this case, it is time to discuss and discuss."
Du Juanqing also nodded, he ordered Du Ren to send the old man out, and then waved to Gu Caiwei: "Ma'am, come along too!"
The two servants frowned upon hearing this.
"Marquis Changning, let's discuss important matters together, why did you ask your wife to come?"
"My wife knows best about today's matter. Benhou feels that there will be a need for her in a while." Du Juanqing replied slowly, "And Benhou's wife is one of my own. I have nothing to hide. her."
The two servants blinked and then nodded reluctantly. "In that case, fine!"
Gu Caiwei was taken aback by Du Juanqing's actions!
Why is this guy calling her?Aren't they still in the cold war?
And after getting the permission of the two servants, Du Juanqing even came to her and stretched out his hand to her. "Ma'am, let's go!"
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips, she looked back at Fufengzi.
It was this look that made Du Juanqing's face turn cold again, and he immediately grabbed her hand. "gone!"
He just dragged the person away.
When Fufengzi saw this, he just pulled the corners of his lips lightly, then turned around and went back to the room with the hatchet in hand.
When Du Yi saw it, he hurriedly shouted: "Senior Fufengzi, wait for me!"
Then he ran after him.
When Du Juanqing heard his son's cry from behind, he subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw that his son followed Fufengzi away like a little follower!
He had never seen this dog-legged appearance before!
what happened?
He immediately glanced at Gu Caiwei, who spread her hands. "Don't ask me, ask your own son when you have time later!"
Du Juanqing pursed his lips, and continued to drag her forward.
The two of them, together with the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Minister of the Household Department, went to Du Juanqing's study together. After Du Ren closed the door, Du Juanqing said in a low voice, "Okay, there are only a few of us here, and everyone can speak freely."
The Minister of the Ministry of War immediately said: "Marquis Changning, I don't know if you have noticed, but in fact, there is something strange in the back garden of Marquis Cai's mansion just now. At least I observed that there are still many fragments of swords left there. I glanced roughly, I found that those swords were all cut off by sharp weapons. The swords in the hands of the samurai guards are all made of the best raw iron. Generally speaking, there are very few things that can cut them off—even if they themselves It doesn't work against chopping."
The household servant was surprised when he heard this. "What else is there? My eyesight is poor, so I didn't notice it. However, I also feel that the king of Gaoyang County and the son of Prince Wei are bewitched by evil. There should be something else going on here. It's the Marquis of Changning who you know but didn't tell us. Right? Otherwise, why did you drag us together when you returned home today?"
These two people were actually pulled back by Du Juanqing?
Gu Caiwei was shocked when she heard the news.
And immediately, she noticed that Du Juanqing's eyes had fallen on her.
"Madam, what is going on, please explain to us now!"
She just knew it.How could this dead man let her go?
Gu Caiwei nodded weakly, and told the truth.
Du Juanqing is fine, he has seen many big scenes with Gu Caiwei, so after hearing this, he just pursed his lips and didn't make a sound.
But after hearing her words, the two servants of the Ministry of War and Household Department were terrified.
"Mrs. Changninghou, you! How dare you be so bold!" the Minister of Housekeeping whispered.
The Minister of the Ministry of War couldn't help but gasped. "Although it was the surname Wu who plotted against you first, but since you have already gained the upper hand, why are you still chasing after him to do such a thing? You just beat them up and let them Don’t you just remember the lesson?”
"Beat them, do they remember the lesson?" Gu Caiwei asked back, "When they walked here from Chang'an before, they played and sang songs every night, and they didn't want to hurry. It was useless for Master Hou to lecture them severely. It was Master Hou later. They have only been honest for a few days by directly giving them medicine to stop them from lifting. But when they got here, after they got the antidote, they started to be lawless again. It means that all the previous lessons have failed, and the surname Wu is simply Don't be afraid!"
The fact that Du Juanqing drugged Wu Chongxun and his brothers was naturally well known to the two servants.But if they didn't say anything, the two of them would just pretend to be stupid.
But now, when Gu Caiwei said it directly, they all had twinkling eyes, and they didn't pretend to be surprised anymore.
After all, now that Gu Caiwei has done even more terrifying things, the way of drugging her before is not worth mentioning at all.
Du Junqing also nodded. "Anyway, we have fallen out with the one surnamed Wu, and this time they even want to attack my wife... Even if my wife doesn't deal with them, I will definitely teach them when I get the news! If the Marquis makes a move, their The end won’t be any better than it is now.”
The two servants immediately felt a chill on their backs, and they subconsciously wrapped their clothes tightly.
"This is a conflict between your family and the Wu family, Marquis Changning, so you don't need to mention it to us, right?" the Minister of the Household Department whispered.
Du Juan smiled lightly. "Before we left Chang'an, this was indeed a conflict between our Changninghou Mansion and the Wu family. But since we left Chang'an, we are one, and you have long been in the same situation as that pair of brothers. In the eyes of the Wu family, you We have already been with us. Now that this happened to the brothers, what do you think the Wu family will think when they find out?"
The eyes of the two servants flashed, and they quickly waved their hands. "King Liang and King Wei may be angry, but they naturally know who the culprit is. Even if they seek revenge, the first person they seek must be you, Marquis Changning!"
"In that case, why didn't you express anything when you saw the situation in the back garden just now? When Wu Zhu insisted that they were bewitched by evil spirits, you still pretended to be serious and believed it." What does it look like?" Du Juanqing asked back.
The two were startled.
Du Juanqing said again: "So, in fact, you are very clear in your heart - the Wu family is fierce and violent, once they know that something happened to their male, they will be furious, and they will never ask who the culprit is. They will wipe out all the people involved in the incident, so as to avenge their nephews! Of course they will be the first person to look for me, but will you be able to escape after that? I think it is very difficult."
The two servants gritted their teeth.
"Marquis Changning, you framed us! If you hadn't pulled us back, we wouldn't have been involved in this incident at all!"
"So what? But if you don't hate the surname Wu in your heart, you will be pulled away by this lord? And just now you took the initiative to help me cover up those obvious flaws." Du Juan Qing Liangliang said, "So your hearts have long been on Benhou's side. Today's matter is just for you to make a thorough choice."
As soon as these words came out, the momentum of the two servants was punctured
The household servant pursed his lips, and he nodded helplessly. "Well, you're right. The Wu family is violent, and they always just want to step on our heads and climb up. They don't really want to help us. They even came to Yongxing County with us this time. , In fact, they are also making two-handed preparations—either, take the current iron mine as their own; We have the resources we have so that we can continue to let them suck their bones!"
What's more, it's fine to knock the bones and suck the marrow, but what these two people knocked was their bones, and then sucked the marrow into their stomachs to feed their surname Wu!
They can't bear this.
The Minister of War also nodded. "They have gone too far this time, and they have repeatedly seized our credit. We have been scolded by Shangguan several times. If this continues, we will work hard here, and all the benefits will return Those with the surname Wu will not get any benefits when they go back to Chang'an. I am afraid that they will be held accountable by the superiors. In the end, I am afraid that this official position will not be able to be kept. If this is the case, why should we still support them?" So he said , everything is still inescapable from a profit word.
In the past, they tried their best to please the Wu brothers, but they just wanted the Wu brothers to speak nice words to them in front of Her Majesty, so as to help them get promoted and make a fortune.In the end, I didn't expect the surname Wu to take advantage of the benefits and not do anything. Instead, he wanted to grab more benefits black-heartedly, and even drove them to a desperate situation!That being the case, they naturally couldn't bear it anymore.
Just in front of them, Du Juanqing took the lead in rebelling against the brothers, so they naturally followed suit and followed suit.
Now that everyone has spoken, Du Juanqing nodded: "The Marquis said earlier, we are now one. Moreover, the King of Gaoyang County and the son of Prince Wei have already looked like this, we will leave people behind. It's useless here. And the fire can't be covered with paper. Sooner or later, people will discover this news and send it back to Chang'an. In this case, we might as well act first, and send people to Chang'an before they know it. Going back, we insisted that they were sick anyway. Yongxing County is too remote, and there are many famous doctors in Chang’an City, so we chose to send them back for treatment. As for this, we will continue to build temples and donate sesame oil money. To atone for the crimes of the two brothers of Gaoyang County King. We have already done it to save face, and the Wu family can't find fault with us."
What's more, the sky is high and the emperor is far away.Even if the Wu family is angry, what can they do to them?No matter how powerful their hands and feet are, they are only in Chang'an.What if they want to extend their hands to Yongxing County?That is impossible!
After sending off Wu Chongxun brothers this time, the next step for Du Juanqing is to remove the Wu family's manpower here, further strengthen the surrounding defenses, and no longer allow anyone with ulterior motives to sneak into his territory.
He didn't need to say it clearly, the two servants had been in the officialdom for so long, they naturally knew his plans.
So, the eyes of the two people brightened again, and they looked at Du Juanqing with a bit of scrutiny in their eyes.
"If the Marquis of Changning plans this way, it is feasible. However, I still have a question - how long can the medicine given by Mrs. Hou to the king of Gaoyang County last? Is the antidote easy to find? But don't wait. Two days after they went back, the Wu family found the antidote, and then everything was over!" Hubu Shilang hurriedly said.
If this problem is resolved, they will have no objection to Du Juanqing's decision.
Ever since, the eyes of several people present fell on Gu Caiwei again.
Gu Caiwei immediately raised a smile. "Just don't worry about this. This medicine is our Gu family's exclusive secret recipe, and only we have the antidote. Unless we are crazy and stupid, how can we give it to Wu?"
"That's good." The two servants quickly breathed a sigh of relief, "If that's the case, then I'll leave this matter to Marquis Changning's arrangement!"
Du Juan nodded. "The business in the mine is busy, you two must have a lot of things to do, so I won't keep you guys any longer. I will leave it to this Marquis to escort the king of Gaoyang County and Prince Wei's son back to Chang'an, and to build temples. Just deal with it."
"That's natural. This is originally your fiefdom of the Marquis of Changning, so it's only natural for you to do these things." The two servants nodded quickly.Then they hurriedly took their leave and left, not bothering to look at Brother Wu Chongxun again.
However, after sending these two people away, Du Juanqing suddenly turned back to look at Gu Caiwei: "Are you sure the antidote hasn't leaked out? Before this, you didn't give any of it to others?"
"This... I gave it to you before." Gu Caiwei nodded after thinking about it, "But there is only one, and it was given to an acquaintance to play with. It was already last year, and I must have used it now. He has been wandering around all year round. And he hates dealing with the court the most. So it is absolutely impossible for him to give the antidote to Wu."
Du Juan heard it clearly, but he narrowed his eyes.
"Could it be that this person is also one of your fiancés?"
Gu Caiwei raised her head helplessly. "Are you really staring at this?"
"I just ask you, yes or no." Du Juan asked coldly.
"Okay, yes!" Gu Caiwei simply nodded her head, "I wonder if you are satisfied with this answer, Master Hou?"
Du Juanqing's complexion sank again.
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "If you are still angry and want to run away from home, the door is over there, just go, I will never stop you!"
Du Juanqing didn't move this time, but just stared at her without saying a word.
Gu Caiwei became impatient. "What do you mean? Well, if you don't go, I'll go to the head office, right? I don't want to see you now!"
After all, she was about to turn around and leave, but she didn't want Du Juanqing to make a sudden move and pull her back.
Immediately afterwards, a cold object was stuffed into her hand.
Gu Caiwei looked down and found that it was a new dagger?
Immediately, another six words came into her ears - "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
(End of this chapter)
The heart that the Wu brothers had just let go instantly hung even higher.
Wu Yanji still kept his hope, he trembled and shouted: "You, you dare! I am the prince of the Wu family, my father is the nephew of Her Majesty, and Her Majesty has always regarded our brother as her own grandson. General love. If there is something wrong with us, Her Majesty the Empress will not let you go!"
As he said this, a young servant from the Wu family came over quietly, holding a sword in his hand, and approached Fufengzi quietly.
He raised the sword and was about to make a move, but he didn't want Fufengzi to look like he had eyes behind his back, so he immediately turned around and was lucky enough to strike the hatchet in the air——
Click!
A slight sound was heard.Then, a stream of blood gushed out, all pouring on the heads and faces of the Wu brothers.This little servant was split in half by him!
"My God! It's terrible!" Seeing this, Gu Tianyuan shouted in a pretentious manner.
Du Yi's face turned pale with fright, and his small body swayed from side to side for a few times, finally gaining a firm foothold.
As for Gu Tianci, he was stunned by what he saw.
"Kill, kill!"
He pointed out that before he had time to call out, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
The Wu brothers also had a buzzing in their heads at this time, they were completely dumbfounded.
This man actually dared to kill someone!And still use this hatchet to chop directly!
So simple and rude, but so shocking!
At first they didn't look down on Fu Fengzi at all, they just thought that this unattractive man was just Gu Caiwei's concubine, this time he came to Yongxing County under the name of a master swordsmith, just wanted to fish in troubled waters, and by the way, continue to have a private relationship with Gu Caiwei .As for whether he is the real Fufengzi, it is not certain!After all, with Gu Caiwei's background, can she know Fufengzi?Still so familiar with Fufengzi?Just kidding!
But now, after Fufengzi slashed wantonly, especially after he cut Wu Chongxun's closest servant in half, his image has undergone earth-shaking changes in their hearts——
He is a demon!The life-threatening Yan Luo crawled out of the eighteenth floor of hell!
Compared with him, Du Juanqing's ability is not enough!After all, Du Juanqing still reasoned with them anyway, but this person didn't have a few words at all, so he just did it when he came over!And it's such a big move as soon as you make a move!
And when their minds were in turmoil, they heard Fu Fengzi's cold voice: "What is Your Majesty the Empress? Even if I kill you all, she can't catch me!"
The Wu brothers were shocked for a moment, and felt a chill go directly to their bones.
They felt as if they, too, had been cast into the icy hell.There was still a thick layer of blood on their heads and faces, and they could barely open their eyes, but their nostrils were filled with the pungent smell of blood, and hearing this man's presumptuous declaration in their ears, they shuddered.
At this moment, life-saving is the top priority.The two people immediately changed their attitudes, got up quickly, kowtowed directly to Fufengzi, and hit the ground with their foreheads, such a soft ground was knocked loudly by them, one can imagine their strength How big is it.
"This hero, we were wrong, really wrong! Please spare our life! As long as you spare us, I will give you whatever you want!" The two shouted vying for the first.
Du Yi's little fellows were amazed at the scene before them.
Du Yi's face was no longer pale, his body was no longer shaking, and there was even a hint of joy on his face.He quickly pulled Gu Tianyuan: "He is so powerful! Why didn't you tell me that he is so powerful yesterday?"
"I said it! I said my brother-in-law is inferior to him, but don't you like to hear it? Then I ran away in anger." Gu Tianyuan curled his lips, but immediately a smug expression appeared on his little face, "But it's not me Blow, Brother Fang's reputation is well-known in Jianghu, although it is mainly because he is a young apprentice of Yang Mingzi, and his sword-making skills are very superb. But everyone who knows him knows that he was sent by his old man to learn from many masters since he was a child. Learning martial arts, he was brought home when he was 12 years old. So don’t look at him as tall and not strong, in fact he is very strong. When we were playing outside, he did all the work of chopping wood!”
The corners of Du Yi's mouth twitched.
"Such a powerful person was used by you to chop firewood. You are too reckless."
"How can there be? Although he has a good ability, doesn't he have many opportunities to display this ability? We are also letting him practice the basic skills so that he won't be unfamiliar. We are helping him!" Gu Tian Yuan retorted solemnly.
Du Yi's reaction was to roll his eyes directly, he would stop talking nonsense with him.
Hastily raised his eyes to look over to Fufengzi, who was still holding the hatchet, standing in front of the Wu brothers. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and he couldn't help murmuring: "If only I could become like him As good as it gets.”
"It's not easy to become as powerful as Brother Fang's! His abilities are acquired with countless blood and sweat, and ordinary people can't do it at all. I once wanted to learn from him, but in reality It was too hard, so I finally gave up. And you...you are so thin, and your father loves you so much, how could he be willing to let you go through that hardship?" Gu Tianyuan couldn't help but whispered again.
But the more he said that, the more determined Du Yi's thoughts became.
"I can bear this hardship. As long as I make up my mind, Father will not stop me."
Gu Tianyuan frowned instantly. "Are you really planning to do this?"
The two little guys here are whispering their ears together, but Fu Fengzi over there doesn't care how Wu Chongxun brothers kowtow and beg for mercy.After he chopped down a few people who wanted to sneak attack, he asked Gu Caiwei: "Have you thought about how much to cut into?"
The corners of Gu Caiwei's eyes twitched.
"Brother, can we stop being so violent? These two people can't be chopped off yet."
"Why? They have already bullied you like this. If you let them go this time, they will definitely fight back in the future. If that's the case, why not get rid of them now, and it's over!" Fu Fengzi said.
"Then you'd better kill them, and immediately kill all the people related to the Wu family here, and then go to Chang'an City, and kill Wu Sansi, Wu Chongxun and their cronies. So many people, you Can you finish chopping with the hatchet?" Gu Caiwei asked angrily.
Fufengzi frowned slightly. "There are indeed too many people, so I need to prepare a few more knives."
When the Wu brothers heard this, they were so frightened that they went limp, and fell down again with a puff.
Gu Caiwei was unable to support her forehead.
"Although most of the Wu family have no skills, they are still powerful compared to ordinary people. With the backing of Her Majesty, they have developed a lot of power. If you really want to kill them all, It will take at least a year and a half. Even if you are willing to do this kind of thing, I am not willing to do it! Why did you get entangled with this kind of person in your wonderful youth? You could have done so many serious things Yes!"
Hearing this, Fufengzi's brows slowly relaxed.
"You're right. It's not worth spending too much time on these people. But, I still don't want to let them go like this."
"It's impossible to just let them go. No matter what, if they dare to bully me, we must teach them a lesson. It's best to make it unforgettable, so that they will remember it firmly for the rest of their lives!" Gu Caiwei shouted.
Fu Fengzi nodded.
The Wu brothers were already so frightened that they were so weak that they couldn't even get up.As a result, hearing Gu Caiwei say that again now, they almost lost their souls.
"What do you want to do again? Didn't we do something to you today? In the end, it was you, you made us miserable!" Wu Yanji couldn't control it at all, and tears flowed outwards non-stop.
Gu Caiwei sneered. "The one who flirts first is cheap. If you didn't come to trouble me first, I would fight back? So everything you have asked for now!"
After finishing speaking, she ordered Liuli and Xiaofanger respectively: "Liuli, go and bring me some scissors. Xiaofanger, ride a horse to the mountains to find Lord Hou, and tell him to get back quickly! If he can't come back, then he will never come back!"
"Yes!"
Liuli and Xiaofang'er responded quickly, and they turned around and ran away.
Soon, Liuli came back with a few scissors. "Lady, what do you think of these?"
"It's pretty good." Gu Caiwei nodded, picked up a handful, walked up to Wu Chongxun, and lifted his hair.
Wu Chongxun immediately tensed up all over. "What do you want? You can't—"
But before he finished speaking, there was a click, and the jet-black hair fell down one after another, and landed on his face.
When Wu Chongxun reached his lips, the shouting stopped abruptly.He widened his eyes and looked at the picture in front of him, then suddenly seemed to have come to his senses, and let out a stern cry from his mouth - "No!"
Wu Yanji watched his cousin's black hair being cut off by Qi Gen, and he was also frightened out of his wits.
Seeing Gu Caiwei walking towards him with scissors again, his eyes burst into tears.
"Mrs. Changning Hou, please don't cut my hair, you can't cut it! If you want to cut it for me, how can I have the face to go out to meet people in the future?"
But why would Gu Caiwei listen to him?
The more Wu Yanji begged, the more obvious the sneer on her face became. "Why didn't you cut you? Now there is nothing else I can do to vent my anger except to cut off your hair."
At this moment, Du Yi also came to his senses, he ran over cheerfully. "Ma'am, I'll help you!"
Then he pushed down Wu Yanji who was trying to struggle.
Gu Tianyuan also followed, imitating the example and holding him down.He even took the initiative to untie Wu Yanji's bun and lift his hair up. "Sister, you can start cutting from here, it's simple and convenient!"
Gu Caiwei went down with the scissors, and sure enough, Wu Yanji's hair was also cut off.
"Ugh-"
Immediately, Wu Yanji heard a humming from his mouth, and then his body collapsed like a ball of cotton.
That's all.After a while, why did Gu Caiwei feel that she smelled urine?
She hurriedly looked around, and Fu Fengzi who was beside him had already sneered: "So the so-called prince Wei only has the guts? You just cut your hair, and you're scared to pee?"
Gu Caiwei quickly lowered her head to look, only to find that the muddy ground under Wu Yanji's body was already wet, and the range of wet spots was still spreading to the surroundings.
This person was so frightened that he peed his pants!
Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan also quickly stepped back holding his nose.
"This person is really useless!" Gu Tianyuan complained angrily.
But Wu Yanji was no longer in the mood to refute.
Today, the two brothers experienced the darkest day in their lives.First, he was threatened by Fufengzi with a hatchet, and then Gu Caiwei had his hair cut in public... His body, hair and skin were treated by his parents, so they should not be damaged.They have carefully maintained their black hair for more than ten years, and they have always been proud of such black hair.But now, this long hair was completely ruined by Gu Caiwei's scissors!
This is even more shameful than killing their lives with a single knife.
They would rather Gu Caiwei let Fu Fengzi split them into eight pieces just now!
But Gu Caiwei didn't.And they themselves...even if they lost their hair now, they would not be willing to die.
Therefore, the two of them lay on the ground as if dead, and they didn't even have the strength to move their fingers.
At this time, Du Juanqing finally rushed back after hearing the news.Returning with him are the servants of the household department and the servants of the military department.
How come they came back so fast?It was less than half an hour in total!
Hearing the message from the maid, Gu Caiwei immediately winked at Gu Tianyuan: "Goro, hurry up!"
Gu Tianyuan immediately took out a small porcelain bottle, and waved the medicine powder inside towards Wu Chongxun brothers and their guards.
Then, when Du Juanqing and his group rushed over, the group of people got up on their heads and started shouting. Two or three hugged each other, fighting and roaring.
Seeing this, Du Juan paused.
Seeing this, the two servants of the Ministry of War and Housekeeping Department changed their expressions drastically, and hurried forward quickly.
"Two servants, please wait a moment!" Seeing this, Gu Caiwei hurried over and stopped him.
The more she stopped, the more anxious these two became.Especially when they saw Wu Chongxun and Wu Yanji brothers in the crowd!
"Mrs. Changning Hou, what's going on? The king of the county and the prince, the two of them... what's going on?" The servant of the household department tidied up his tongue for a long time before he stammered out the question.
"Hey!"
Gu Caiwei immediately let out a long sigh. "I don't know what's going on. Early this morning, just after we finished our breakfast, we heard someone report that Gaoyang County King and Prince Wei's son didn't know what was going on, and they suddenly brought their guard Xiao He was running all over the Hou Mansion, yelling at everyone, scaring the hell out! Our Hou Mansion had very few guards. Yesterday, the Hou Ye went to the mine and took away another batch. The rest was not enough. Thanks to Fu Fengzi, he helped us drive these people to the back garden. Originally, we wanted them to vent their anger here enough and calm down before talking. Unexpectedly, it has been so long, they They are still yelling, even more violent than before!"
"That's right, we're all scared to death!" Gu Tianyuan hurriedly added, "Especially the king of Gaoyang County and the son of Prince Wei, the two of them seemed crazy, they didn't know where to find a pair of scissors, Just cut your own hair, we can't stop it!"
The two servants looked at the situation in front of them, and then listened to their words, the blood on their faces faded.
However, Du Juanqing carefully observed the expressions of Gu Caiwei, Fu Fengzi, and Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan from a distance. When he saw Gu Tianci who was still lying on the ground without knowing his personnel, his eyes flashed. Understood.
He hastily strode forward. "No matter what, let's hurry up and find a way to let Gaoyang County King and the others stop making trouble, and then ask the doctor to treat them."
"Yes, that's how it should be!" The two servants nodded hastily.
It's just... Look at the crazy appearance of the group of people in front of you, someone has already bit off the ear of the other party!
The person whose ear was bitten off screamed wildly, with blood flowing from his ear, but he didn't know how to protect himself, but continued to shout and rushed to the next person.
These people are crazy!
And it's not an easy task to deal with madmen.So they are in trouble.
But Du Juanqing gritted his teeth and ordered Du Ren to call the guards from the Hou's mansion. Everyone tried their best to catch all these people and knock them out one by one.
These jobs seem simple and crude, but there is really no way around them.At any rate, the comatose Prince Gaoyang and his party stopped going crazy, and they stopped biting or arresting people!
Seeing that all these people were brought down, Du Juanqing nodded again. "Hurry up, send them all back to the wing room, and then invite the doctor to treat them!"
"Yes!" Du Ren hurriedly led people down to make arrangements.
Soon, the imperial physician accompanying them arrived.It's just that the imperial doctor took the pulse of these people one by one, but he didn't find out why. He just frowned and said: "This old man is still inexperienced, and found that the pulses of the prince and his son are not abnormal except that they are too strong. .The old man has thought over and over again, but he can’t come up with a clue. In this case, please invite the local Wu Zhu to come and see it!”
The implication is to imply that Wu Chongxun and his party are not sick at all, they are bewitched!
Du Juan frowned, and he nodded immediately. "The Marquis knows."
He turned his head and told Du Ren to invite the famous local wizard over.
Yongxing County is located in the territory of the ancient Chu State, which advocated witchcraft, and there were all kinds of witchcraft here.Until now, this place is still the soil where all kinds of witches thrive.
So, after Du Ren went out for a few meetings, he brought back an old man with a skinny face.
"Master Hou, this is the most powerful wizard in Yongxing County." He said to Du Juanqing.
Du Juan nodded and saluted the old man. "The situation of the guests in our house must have been explained to you just now. Now, please go and find out what's going on!"
The old man nodded quickly and immediately entered the house.
After entering, his complexion suddenly changed, and his body immediately twisted into a posture that ordinary people could not imitate, and he began to mutter words, but they were all things they couldn't understand.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the room became a lot more eerie.
It took less than half an hour to go back and forth between Wu Chongxun and Wu Yanji's bed before the old man finally stopped his movements, and his face and posture returned to normal.
The Minister of the Household Department and the Minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs couldn't hold back any longer, they rushed to ask: "What's going on? Did you see any problem?"
"I see." The old man nodded.
"Then tell me quickly!"
"They offended the mountain god, and now they are punished by the mountain god!" The old man responded loudly.
Everyone present was shocked.
"Why?" Hubu's servant hurriedly asked, "They are doing well. Every day, they just travel around the mountains and rivers. At most, they pick some wild fruits and game on the mountains. Why did they offend the mountain god? Could it be...they are Accidentally hurt the fetish on the mountain, so you were blamed by the mountain god?"
"The mountain god is tolerant, how could he condemn the world for such a trivial matter?" The old man shook his head immediately, "I have heard the mountain god just now, the real reason is that these two people walk around the mountains and forests with people every day, and every time they arrive They dug wantonly in one place, ignoring the creatures all over the ground. After digging, they left everything and left, not even cleaning up those poor corpses. Those who died in vain reported to the mountain god, resentment Gathering, the mountain gods can't stand it anymore, so they will punish them."
These words instantly changed everyone's expression.
The Wu brothers have been running up the mountain every day recently. They claim to be free to go hunting, but the others are not stupid, how could they not know their plans?It's just that the Wu family has always been lawless, and they didn't do too much to obstruct the iron ore they had discovered this time, so naturally everyone can only turn a blind eye and close one eye, and let them mess around.
In the end, who would have thought that these two people were so reckless when they went to the mountains and forests to search for iron ore, and they would cause such a big disaster?
The Minister of the Ministry of War hurriedly asked: "So now, what should we do to make the mountain god take back the punishment?"
"The mountain god said that these two sinners have committed serious crimes, and they have already caused complaints from the spirits of flowers and plants in the mountains. They don't deserve to be forgiven at all. If you insist on seeking forgiveness for him, you can only do more good deeds in order to move the heavens. Maybe the mountain god will change his mind and let the two of them regain their sanity." The old man replied slowly.
The implication is that these two people are likely to be like this in this life?
The faces of the two servants became very complicated again.They quickly looked at Du Juanqing: "Marquis Changning, what do you think should be done now?"
Du Juanqing was also sullen.
"The matter has come to this point, and there is no other way. Now we can only collect some money to repair the mountain temple in the mountain and add some incense. In the future, we will send more people to patrol the mountain to stop other attempts to mess up in the mountain. Those who ran away were driven back, and the creatures in the mountains were given a clean space."
"Naturally!" the servant of the household department nodded hastily, "this money is not much, our household department can pay all of it!"
"Okay." Du Juanqing was not polite, and nodded straightforwardly.But immediately he added, "Also, since such a big incident happened, we must report it to the imperial court as soon as possible."
The two servants immediately looked embarrassed again.
"Do you really want to do this? Why don't you wait any longer, maybe the county king and the others will be fine in two days?"
Du Juanqing looked at these two people. "Since we have differences on this matter, let's discuss it together! What do you two think?"
The minister of the household department and the minister of the military department immediately exchanged glances, and then they both nodded. "In this case, it is time to discuss and discuss."
Du Juanqing also nodded, he ordered Du Ren to send the old man out, and then waved to Gu Caiwei: "Ma'am, come along too!"
The two servants frowned upon hearing this.
"Marquis Changning, let's discuss important matters together, why did you ask your wife to come?"
"My wife knows best about today's matter. Benhou feels that there will be a need for her in a while." Du Juanqing replied slowly, "And Benhou's wife is one of my own. I have nothing to hide. her."
The two servants blinked and then nodded reluctantly. "In that case, fine!"
Gu Caiwei was taken aback by Du Juanqing's actions!
Why is this guy calling her?Aren't they still in the cold war?
And after getting the permission of the two servants, Du Juanqing even came to her and stretched out his hand to her. "Ma'am, let's go!"
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips, she looked back at Fufengzi.
It was this look that made Du Juanqing's face turn cold again, and he immediately grabbed her hand. "gone!"
He just dragged the person away.
When Fufengzi saw this, he just pulled the corners of his lips lightly, then turned around and went back to the room with the hatchet in hand.
When Du Yi saw it, he hurriedly shouted: "Senior Fufengzi, wait for me!"
Then he ran after him.
When Du Juanqing heard his son's cry from behind, he subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw that his son followed Fufengzi away like a little follower!
He had never seen this dog-legged appearance before!
what happened?
He immediately glanced at Gu Caiwei, who spread her hands. "Don't ask me, ask your own son when you have time later!"
Du Juanqing pursed his lips, and continued to drag her forward.
The two of them, together with the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Minister of the Household Department, went to Du Juanqing's study together. After Du Ren closed the door, Du Juanqing said in a low voice, "Okay, there are only a few of us here, and everyone can speak freely."
The Minister of the Ministry of War immediately said: "Marquis Changning, I don't know if you have noticed, but in fact, there is something strange in the back garden of Marquis Cai's mansion just now. At least I observed that there are still many fragments of swords left there. I glanced roughly, I found that those swords were all cut off by sharp weapons. The swords in the hands of the samurai guards are all made of the best raw iron. Generally speaking, there are very few things that can cut them off—even if they themselves It doesn't work against chopping."
The household servant was surprised when he heard this. "What else is there? My eyesight is poor, so I didn't notice it. However, I also feel that the king of Gaoyang County and the son of Prince Wei are bewitched by evil. There should be something else going on here. It's the Marquis of Changning who you know but didn't tell us. Right? Otherwise, why did you drag us together when you returned home today?"
These two people were actually pulled back by Du Juanqing?
Gu Caiwei was shocked when she heard the news.
And immediately, she noticed that Du Juanqing's eyes had fallen on her.
"Madam, what is going on, please explain to us now!"
She just knew it.How could this dead man let her go?
Gu Caiwei nodded weakly, and told the truth.
Du Juanqing is fine, he has seen many big scenes with Gu Caiwei, so after hearing this, he just pursed his lips and didn't make a sound.
But after hearing her words, the two servants of the Ministry of War and Household Department were terrified.
"Mrs. Changninghou, you! How dare you be so bold!" the Minister of Housekeeping whispered.
The Minister of the Ministry of War couldn't help but gasped. "Although it was the surname Wu who plotted against you first, but since you have already gained the upper hand, why are you still chasing after him to do such a thing? You just beat them up and let them Don’t you just remember the lesson?”
"Beat them, do they remember the lesson?" Gu Caiwei asked back, "When they walked here from Chang'an before, they played and sang songs every night, and they didn't want to hurry. It was useless for Master Hou to lecture them severely. It was Master Hou later. They have only been honest for a few days by directly giving them medicine to stop them from lifting. But when they got here, after they got the antidote, they started to be lawless again. It means that all the previous lessons have failed, and the surname Wu is simply Don't be afraid!"
The fact that Du Juanqing drugged Wu Chongxun and his brothers was naturally well known to the two servants.But if they didn't say anything, the two of them would just pretend to be stupid.
But now, when Gu Caiwei said it directly, they all had twinkling eyes, and they didn't pretend to be surprised anymore.
After all, now that Gu Caiwei has done even more terrifying things, the way of drugging her before is not worth mentioning at all.
Du Junqing also nodded. "Anyway, we have fallen out with the one surnamed Wu, and this time they even want to attack my wife... Even if my wife doesn't deal with them, I will definitely teach them when I get the news! If the Marquis makes a move, their The end won’t be any better than it is now.”
The two servants immediately felt a chill on their backs, and they subconsciously wrapped their clothes tightly.
"This is a conflict between your family and the Wu family, Marquis Changning, so you don't need to mention it to us, right?" the Minister of the Household Department whispered.
Du Juan smiled lightly. "Before we left Chang'an, this was indeed a conflict between our Changninghou Mansion and the Wu family. But since we left Chang'an, we are one, and you have long been in the same situation as that pair of brothers. In the eyes of the Wu family, you We have already been with us. Now that this happened to the brothers, what do you think the Wu family will think when they find out?"
The eyes of the two servants flashed, and they quickly waved their hands. "King Liang and King Wei may be angry, but they naturally know who the culprit is. Even if they seek revenge, the first person they seek must be you, Marquis Changning!"
"In that case, why didn't you express anything when you saw the situation in the back garden just now? When Wu Zhu insisted that they were bewitched by evil spirits, you still pretended to be serious and believed it." What does it look like?" Du Juanqing asked back.
The two were startled.
Du Juanqing said again: "So, in fact, you are very clear in your heart - the Wu family is fierce and violent, once they know that something happened to their male, they will be furious, and they will never ask who the culprit is. They will wipe out all the people involved in the incident, so as to avenge their nephews! Of course they will be the first person to look for me, but will you be able to escape after that? I think it is very difficult."
The two servants gritted their teeth.
"Marquis Changning, you framed us! If you hadn't pulled us back, we wouldn't have been involved in this incident at all!"
"So what? But if you don't hate the surname Wu in your heart, you will be pulled away by this lord? And just now you took the initiative to help me cover up those obvious flaws." Du Juan Qing Liangliang said, "So your hearts have long been on Benhou's side. Today's matter is just for you to make a thorough choice."
As soon as these words came out, the momentum of the two servants was punctured
The household servant pursed his lips, and he nodded helplessly. "Well, you're right. The Wu family is violent, and they always just want to step on our heads and climb up. They don't really want to help us. They even came to Yongxing County with us this time. , In fact, they are also making two-handed preparations—either, take the current iron mine as their own; We have the resources we have so that we can continue to let them suck their bones!"
What's more, it's fine to knock the bones and suck the marrow, but what these two people knocked was their bones, and then sucked the marrow into their stomachs to feed their surname Wu!
They can't bear this.
The Minister of War also nodded. "They have gone too far this time, and they have repeatedly seized our credit. We have been scolded by Shangguan several times. If this continues, we will work hard here, and all the benefits will return Those with the surname Wu will not get any benefits when they go back to Chang'an. I am afraid that they will be held accountable by the superiors. In the end, I am afraid that this official position will not be able to be kept. If this is the case, why should we still support them?" So he said , everything is still inescapable from a profit word.
In the past, they tried their best to please the Wu brothers, but they just wanted the Wu brothers to speak nice words to them in front of Her Majesty, so as to help them get promoted and make a fortune.In the end, I didn't expect the surname Wu to take advantage of the benefits and not do anything. Instead, he wanted to grab more benefits black-heartedly, and even drove them to a desperate situation!That being the case, they naturally couldn't bear it anymore.
Just in front of them, Du Juanqing took the lead in rebelling against the brothers, so they naturally followed suit and followed suit.
Now that everyone has spoken, Du Juanqing nodded: "The Marquis said earlier, we are now one. Moreover, the King of Gaoyang County and the son of Prince Wei have already looked like this, we will leave people behind. It's useless here. And the fire can't be covered with paper. Sooner or later, people will discover this news and send it back to Chang'an. In this case, we might as well act first, and send people to Chang'an before they know it. Going back, we insisted that they were sick anyway. Yongxing County is too remote, and there are many famous doctors in Chang’an City, so we chose to send them back for treatment. As for this, we will continue to build temples and donate sesame oil money. To atone for the crimes of the two brothers of Gaoyang County King. We have already done it to save face, and the Wu family can't find fault with us."
What's more, the sky is high and the emperor is far away.Even if the Wu family is angry, what can they do to them?No matter how powerful their hands and feet are, they are only in Chang'an.What if they want to extend their hands to Yongxing County?That is impossible!
After sending off Wu Chongxun brothers this time, the next step for Du Juanqing is to remove the Wu family's manpower here, further strengthen the surrounding defenses, and no longer allow anyone with ulterior motives to sneak into his territory.
He didn't need to say it clearly, the two servants had been in the officialdom for so long, they naturally knew his plans.
So, the eyes of the two people brightened again, and they looked at Du Juanqing with a bit of scrutiny in their eyes.
"If the Marquis of Changning plans this way, it is feasible. However, I still have a question - how long can the medicine given by Mrs. Hou to the king of Gaoyang County last? Is the antidote easy to find? But don't wait. Two days after they went back, the Wu family found the antidote, and then everything was over!" Hubu Shilang hurriedly said.
If this problem is resolved, they will have no objection to Du Juanqing's decision.
Ever since, the eyes of several people present fell on Gu Caiwei again.
Gu Caiwei immediately raised a smile. "Just don't worry about this. This medicine is our Gu family's exclusive secret recipe, and only we have the antidote. Unless we are crazy and stupid, how can we give it to Wu?"
"That's good." The two servants quickly breathed a sigh of relief, "If that's the case, then I'll leave this matter to Marquis Changning's arrangement!"
Du Juan nodded. "The business in the mine is busy, you two must have a lot of things to do, so I won't keep you guys any longer. I will leave it to this Marquis to escort the king of Gaoyang County and Prince Wei's son back to Chang'an, and to build temples. Just deal with it."
"That's natural. This is originally your fiefdom of the Marquis of Changning, so it's only natural for you to do these things." The two servants nodded quickly.Then they hurriedly took their leave and left, not bothering to look at Brother Wu Chongxun again.
However, after sending these two people away, Du Juanqing suddenly turned back to look at Gu Caiwei: "Are you sure the antidote hasn't leaked out? Before this, you didn't give any of it to others?"
"This... I gave it to you before." Gu Caiwei nodded after thinking about it, "But there is only one, and it was given to an acquaintance to play with. It was already last year, and I must have used it now. He has been wandering around all year round. And he hates dealing with the court the most. So it is absolutely impossible for him to give the antidote to Wu."
Du Juan heard it clearly, but he narrowed his eyes.
"Could it be that this person is also one of your fiancés?"
Gu Caiwei raised her head helplessly. "Are you really staring at this?"
"I just ask you, yes or no." Du Juan asked coldly.
"Okay, yes!" Gu Caiwei simply nodded her head, "I wonder if you are satisfied with this answer, Master Hou?"
Du Juanqing's complexion sank again.
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "If you are still angry and want to run away from home, the door is over there, just go, I will never stop you!"
Du Juanqing didn't move this time, but just stared at her without saying a word.
Gu Caiwei became impatient. "What do you mean? Well, if you don't go, I'll go to the head office, right? I don't want to see you now!"
After all, she was about to turn around and leave, but she didn't want Du Juanqing to make a sudden move and pull her back.
Immediately afterwards, a cold object was stuffed into her hand.
Gu Caiwei looked down and found that it was a new dagger?
Immediately, another six words came into her ears - "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
