Chapter 9: Evil Retribution
After listening to the news from Mama Miao, Gu Huanyi said: "Now that Gu Jiajun is gone, Gu Hui's business is gone, no wonder he is so flustered and wants to blackmail my family's property." ”
Mama Miao nodded and said: "Yes, this time the Donglin Army galloped to Liangzhou, and the grain and grass food had its own doorway of the Donglin Army, I heard that Gu Hui was known as a general everywhere, and wanted to have a relationship with the Donglin Army......
Gu Huanyi became angry when he heard this, these people are like maggots on tarsal bones that are disgusting!
Gu Huanyi endured a sigh of relief and said, "He's just afraid that he's going to work in vain, and now that the defeat of the Gu family's army has not yet been determined, who dares to sell my father's face to him?" ”
She really wanted to rectify Gu Hui, but Gu Hui had been a logistical supply for Gu Jiajun before, so it was not easy to start.
First, she believed that her father was very strict in governing the army, and she would not condone Gu Hui to play any tricks, and if she really found out any fault, she would also smear her father.
For a while, it was a dilemma.
Thinking of the dawn in a sullen mood, Gu Huanyi heard movement from the front yard, and people and horses were moving.
She walked out of the mourning hall to see that it was Li Congxin who was going out with the black armor army.
He was like a black-armored army today, and he also wore a black armor, which was a little more majestic than the first two days.
Li Congxin walked past the hall, looked at Gu Huanyi's tired expression, and said, "Filial piety is very important, and the body is also very important, don't get burned." ”
Here we go again, here we go again!
and to speak so close and familiar to her, he must have wanted to paralyze her and let her relax her guard!
Gu Huanyi pursed his lips and did not answer.
Li Congxin felt that there was something wrong with her demeanor, thinking that she was tired from staying up late, and the black armor army was waiting for him again, so he nodded to Gu Huanyi, turned over on his horse, and went out.
Mama Miao helped Gu Huanyi back to the room, but Gu Huanyi lay on the bed but couldn't sleep.
After tossing and turning on the bed until noon, she got up again and discussed with Song Ping the arrangements for her mother's entry into the ancestral tomb and the funeral in five days.
There was no Li Congxin and the Black Armor Army in the general's mansion, and the door of the mansion was closed to no one to mourn, so it seemed very quiet at the moment.
When it's quiet, people's thoughts become clearer.
Gu Huanyi suddenly thought that although she felt that life was too difficult, she didn't have the idea of hanging herself at this moment.
And in the prophecy letter, she did not hang herself when the Gu family was convicted and became an official slave.
But he hanged himself a year after marrying the son of King Xian.
Why?
Gu Huanyi didn't know what she would experience in the Xianwang Mansion, which would allow her to survive the blow of her family being ruined, and the torture of falling into the mud, but she couldn't survive the days of the Xianwang Mansion......
Is King Hyun really the savior who saved her? Or the murderer who forced her to death?
She had too many doubts in her mind, but she couldn't find answers, she knew too little!
"Mama, when is my uncle coming?"
Mama Miao said: "Hurry up, you can rush from the capital to Liangzhou in two days, but if it is a carriage, you need to walk for four days." Coupled with the time to deliver the letter, my uncle will be able to arrive before the funeral on the seventh day. ”
Gu Huanyi nodded, she had to wait for her uncle to come and ask him.
The Song family has been in the capital for many years, and they will definitely know a lot about King Xian and King Ming, and what position the two of them have on the matter of the Gu family army also needs to be investigated.
After nightfall, Gu Huanyi ordered someone to spread a mattress next to the mourning hall and rest the vigil here.
The wind blew through the hall, causing her to hallucinate that someone was knocking on the door.
If Li Congxin went to Snow Lotus Mountain, he wouldn't be able to come back without two or three days, but Gu Huanyi couldn't help but get up frequently and went to the door to check in person.
On the morning of the third day, Gu Huanyi had just washed his face, and the gate of Gu's mansion was pounded.
Song Ping trotted to the backyard to report and said, "Miss, Gu Hui's daughter-in-law Tang is here, saying that Gu Hui was taken away by the officers and soldiers with a flail early in the morning, please come forward to help." ”
Gu Huanyi's heart was overjoyed, and he asked with restraint: "Oh? What happened to Gu Hui? Which side of the officers and soldiers were taken away? ”
Song Ping said: "Gu Hui hoarded a large amount of rice and grain in his hands, and found a way to sell it to Donglin Army at a low price, but after being reported by his compradors, this batch of rice and grain had actually been sold to Gu Jiajun a long time ago, but it was just stored in his hands. Now he was arrested by Jingfu Yin for reselling military grain and grass, and the store was also closed. ”
The grain and grass sold to the Gu family army is the military food, even if the Gu family army is gone, this is also the property of the military.
But he dared to cover the sky with one hand and resell it, he really ate the gall of a leopard!
The corners of Gu Huanyi's mouth curled, and for so many days, she rarely showed a smile: "Reselling military funds is a big crime, what did the Tang family come to me for?" ”
Song Ping said: "The comprador who reported Gu Hui was originally the master under General Gu, and after retiring due to injury, he was arranged by the general to supervise logistics procurement. Tang wanted to beg the young lady to come forward to persuade him, and begged the comprador to retract his confession, and they immediately sent back the grain and grassland untouched. ”
Think beautifully!
"You tell the Tang family, I'm a little woman who doesn't understand the big things in the army, don't dare to interfere, let her find another way to survive."
Song Ping went to the door to pass the word, but the Tang family naturally refused to follow, rolled and scolded the street, and did everything, but in the end he was driven away by the Gu family with a stick.
Gu Huanyi bent the corners of his mouth and said to Mama Miao: "God opens his eyes, evil will be rewarded!" ”
Mama Miao was also very happy, kowtowed a few times in front of her wife's spirit, and went to the Buddhist hall to offer incense.
Gu Hui's matter, there are bills filed by the comprador and witnesses, and the investigation is clear and clear.
Lord Yin Qi of the Beijing Mansion knew about Gu Hui and Gu Huanyi's holiday, so he naturally pressed the case to death, and there was no possibility of reversal.
Gu Huanyi was very grateful to the comprador who reported it, and said to Song Ping: "I want to meet him, he is loyal to his father, but now he has lost his job, and the Gu family can't treat him badly." ”
Song Ping went outside to find someone and brought him to Gu Huanyi.
The comprador is called Wang Sheng, nearly forty years old, and he was a master in the Gu family army in the early years, but he injured his leg due to an accident, so he had to retire and was arranged by General Gu to ensure logistics on Gu Hui's side.
Knowing that Gu Huan wanted him to come to the Gu Mansion to do things, Wang Sheng was naturally very grateful.
Gu Huanyi said to Wang Sheng: "Now that the future of the General's Mansion is uncertain, you are willing to help me in times of danger, and I will remember it!" ”
Wang Sheng said movingly: "The eldest lady doesn't need to say this, if it weren't for the general to find a way for me, what way could I survive as a crippled person?" My wife and children and I have been starving to death on the streets. ”
As soon as Gu Huanyi said this, he suddenly had some thoughts, and said: "This time the Gu family army was killed, I don't know how many orphans and widows were left behind, although I can't help everyone solve their livelihoods, but I should also do some modest help." Master Wang, can you help me contact some military widows and orphans, if there are any people who are willing to serve the Gu family, after I get through this difficulty, I will arrange for them to work in the mansion or various industries. ”
Now that the trees are falling and scattered, the Gu Mansion is very short of manpower, and Gu Huanyi has no cronies to use. If she wants to gain a foothold in the world in the future, she must need someone to help her.
Wang Sheng stood up excitedly and said, "The eldest lady really has the legacy of a general, and I will definitely handle this matter well." ”
