Chapter 178: Discord

"For so many years, I can't sleep every night, I'm a civil official, such a bloody scene, as soon as I close my eyes, I feel like those people are coming to me to ask for my life."

Liang Kuan chattered, and Gu Lingkai sat there listening to him.

Back then, he was just a petty official who had just been transferred from the local government to the capital, and he had a heart to climb up, but he had no connections to climb up.

In the huge capital, he has no backing, and it is difficult to move an inch at all.

But at this time, Gong Xiangling threw an olive branch to him.

Because he was in Jiangnan before and was familiar with the southern region, Gong Xiangling asked him to suppress bandits.

As a civil official, Liang Kuan is afraid. Suppressing bandits is not a comfortable thing, and if you are not careful, you may lose your life. But Gong Xiangling assured him that he would be absolutely fine this time, and he would return with honors.

"At the beginning, I also knew that it was unkind to do so, but the prince said so, how dare I disobey the prince as a small official. I was in a bad conscience, but for the sake of my little life, I could only agree to it. ”

Liang Kuan said while crying.

It's really ugly for him to cry as a big man, and Gu Lingkai knows the next thing.

But Liang Kuan avoided the important and took it lightly, and what he said was all guessed by them, why did Gong Xiangling target the water village of so many thousands of people, and why did he come to this water village to suppress bandits after so many years?

Liang Kuan didn't say any of this.

"Back then, what did Gong Xiangling ask you to do for him?" Gu Lingkai asked straight to the ground.

Liang Kuan pretended to be stupid: "The prince just asked me to suppress the bandits and tell me how to do it." ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of wind in his ears, and he felt that his head was light, and his originally tied bun fell apart.

Some people just don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin, and with such a threat, Liang Kuan is much more obedient.

"I say, I say!" Liang Kuan said sullenly, "Back then, the prince asked me to send the confiscated weapons and most of the seized treasures to one place. ”

……

Gu Lingkai opened the door, the small room was actually not sealed, and when he interrogated Liang Kuan, Yu Wenhao and the others were all sitting outside listening.

As soon as he went out, Gu Lingkai felt that his limbs were weak and he almost fell to the ground.

He held on to the wall and burst out laughing.

Yu Wenhao supported him with a calm face, and could only say one sentence in a thousand words, "Festival condolences." ”

No one expected that the reason why Gong Xiangling planned to suppress bandits back then was for the weapons of Gujiazhai and the treasures accumulated over the years.

The letter was intercepted by Gong Xiangling, and he saw the situation of Gujiazhai written by Gu Lingkai's father in the letter, and knew that Gujiazhai had developed for many years, and there must be a lot of weapons and treasures.

At that time, Gong Xiangling already had a rebellion, but because he didn't have weapons and enough money, suppressing bandits became an important means for him to collect money.

Liang Kuan's testimony said that in addition to Gujiazhai, he also helped Gong Xiangling collect a lot of money by other means. Just his testimony is enough to make Gong Xiangling guard the imperial tomb for a lifetime.

But that's not enough.

Gong Xiangling's ambition is too big, as long as he lives for one day, it will be like a fish in the throat for the Daqing Dynasty.

"Isn't he trying to do it again? In that case, we just asked him where he was going to send the seized things. Chen Youwei also listened, and seeing that the two of them were not in high spirits at this time, and they didn't notice the details in Liang Kuan's words, he reminded them.

Yu Wenhao's eyes lit up, and he asked people to go in and press Liang Kuan's hand to draw on the testimony, and then wrote a letter to Gong Xiangling in his handwriting.

The letter said that the suppression of the bandits had been successful, and asked Gong Xiangling where he wanted to send this batch of supplies.

The letter was delivered, and the three of them looked at Liang Kuan, who was paralyzed in the corner.

Chen Youwei asked: "General, how to deal with this person?" ”

"Kill at a certain date."

After returning to Chen's house, Gu Lingkai knelt down for Yu Wenhao.

Lin Jiujiu was walking out, and when he saw this scene, he understood a little. She smiled: "What, the revenge has been avenged?" ”

Eleven years of wish come true, not only for Gu Lingkai, but also for the remaining people in Gujiazhai back then, it is also great news.

Gu Lingkai nodded, and was helped up by Yu Wenhao: "Aren't you going to tell the people in the village about this news?" They should be happy too. ”

Yu Wenhao also has to report this matter to the imperial court, and he has the ability to cut a Liang Kuan, but if he is rehabilitated, no one else can do this except the emperor.

Gu Lingkai stood up and walked out excitedly, and heard an "ouch", and everyone looked at it, Gu Lingkai actually collided with a girl in goose yellow clothes because he was in a hurry.

Chen Youwei smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, and said, "Good girl, why did you come back so early?" ”

The person Gu Lingkai bumped into was Chen Youwei's daughter Chen Ning.

Some time ago, Chen Ning had been following his mother to the temple to retreat, and he had been worried that Chen Ning would not be able to meet Gu Lingkai if he came back. But he didn't expect Chen Ning to come back early, and as soon as he came back, he bumped into Gu Lingkai.

What is this, this is fate.

"Dad, who is he?" Chen Ning is really born to Chen Youwei, and even his vision is exactly the same.

Looking at Gu Lingkai, Chen Ning's face turned red, and he posted to Chen Youwei's side and asked secretly.

Although there was a feeling in his heart that the daughter was not left, but thinking that if the two of them became successful, this son-in-law would still be seen by himself, and the sourness in Chen Youwei's heart disappeared completely.

"This is ......" Halfway through speaking, Chen Youwei felt that he had forgotten about people, and hurriedly dragged Chen Ning to Yuwenhao's face, "Didn't you clamoring to see Brother Yuwen some time ago, why don't you know that people are in front of you now?" This Gu Gongzi is your friend of Brother Yuwen. ”

Chen Ning saw Yu Wenhao at this time, and a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face.

The daughter of a military general is always different from the ladies in the capital, Chen Ning has a hearty temperament, even if she is embarrassed.

"Brother Yuwen, your friend is really good."

Chen Ning's face was not red, but Gu Lingkai's face was red thoroughly.

He hurriedly said, "I'll deliver the letter." ”

He turned around and ran out.

Looking at his back, Chen Ning sighed: "It's just that his skin is a little thinner." ”

Lin Jiujiu laughed out loud.

"General Chen, your daughter is really temperamental."

Chen Youwei laughed dryly: "Madame laughed, but she didn't teach her well, and she raised it badly." ”

Chen Ning glared at Chen Youwei before looking at Lin Jiujiu, and then said: "Brother Yuwen, I heard that my sister-in-law is the shopkeeper of Tianxianglou, and my father didn't let me buy things from Tianxianglou, saying that it was too expensive, sister-in-law, can you give me a friendly price?" ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Chen Youwei's face, this girl is really becoming more and more lawless, how embarrassing it is to say this.
