Jin Yu looked down at the file on her right, which was the thickest of the three.

Fang Cai's share bought the lives of more than 40 people in the Chen family, so what about this one? And how many innocent lives?

She hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up the dossier.

It was heavy, like a boulder pressing down on her heart.

However, when she opened it, she was surprised to find that such a thick volume was just for one person.

The second dossier bought the head of Gu Mingyi, the boss of the Huaihe Salt Gang.

Speaking of this Gu Mingyi, he can be regarded as a generation of legends in the rivers and lakes.

Gu Mingyi, formerly known as Gu Chengbi, was born in the famous Gu family of Huaihe.

This Gu family generation is a reader who only reads the books of sages and sages, and does not listen to things outside the window. The ancestors have also produced several champions, and the most outstanding officials worship the Ministry of Shangshu.

In Emperor Jing's generation, it has declined a little, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it can be regarded as a scholarly family in the end, and it is also a famous family that is admired in the Huai River area.

Gu Zhengzheng, the head of this generation, is Gu Chengbi's father. When he was young, he took many exams and lost to Sun Shan, but in the end he barely got the title of a showman.

This Gu Zhengze can really be called a model of the person who only reads the books of sages and does not listen to the things outside the window. And he is stubborn, does not know how to be flexible, and does not know how to manage the family business, and the Gu family is even more declining.

Originally, the Gu family's generation was not Gu Zhengze's turn to be the master of the house, and he also had an elder brother named Gu Zhengzhan. He has been a well-known prodigy since he was a child, but the Gu family has high hopes for him, and they all expect him to revive the former glory of the Gu family.

But who would have thought that Gu Zhengzhan had a serious illness when he was twelve years old, so he went.

There were only two boys in the previous generation of the Gu family, and Gu Zhengzhan went, so naturally only Gu Zhengze was left in charge.

It is impossible for Gu to shine the lintel in Gu Zhengze's hands, but fortunately, although Gu Zhengze is a little stubborn, he is an honest man who does his duty, and he can live a solid life with this ancestral business, and he can be regarded as worry-free.

Gu Zhengze has two sons and a daughter. The eldest is a simple boy named Gu Chengyu, the second is a girl, her name is Jinyu, and the youngest Chengbi is later Gu Mingyi.

Gu Chengyu is loyal and honest, but his talent is not high, and Gu Jinyu is a girl, so he doesn't say it. Gu Chengbi is as talented and intelligent as his uncle who died early, and the hope of the whole family is pinned on Gu Chengbi.

Originally, most of Gu Chengbi's life was like his ancestors, and if he was lucky, he would be able to be a beautiful official when he was named on the daily gold list, or he could only be an ordinary and ordinary scholar like his father.

At the end of a lifetime, it will not have anything to do with the bloody rivers and lakes.

But life has always been a blessing and a curse.

When Gu Chengbi was three years old, he followed his mother and grandmother to the street to catch the market, and happened to meet the governor who entered the city official mansion to clear the road.

The day of the market was already crowded, and as soon as the road was cleared, it was even more chaotic, and the old lady and lady were just scattered. When the servants finally found the old lady and the lady, and when they turned around, the little young master was gone.

The old lady thought that the little master followed the lady, and the lady thought that the little master followed the old lady. In the end, this little young master is gone.

For more than 20 years, the old lady has long been buried in the ground. Gu Zhengze is old, and most of the family affairs are handed over to Gu Chengyu to take care of.

Although Gu Chengyu has no talent for studying, he can be kind and conscientious, and the entire Gu family is safe in his hands. But the name Gu Chengbi became a thorn in the hearts of the whole family, it hurt when he touched it, and gradually no one mentioned it anymore.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Chengyu was twenty-four years old, and Gu Jinyu had also reached the age of leaving the cabinet.

After Gu Chengbi went missing, there were only two children left in the family, and Gu Jinyu was a daughter, so she naturally loved and spoiled her in every way, but she developed a pampered and willful temper.

Originally, this Gu Jinyu was slim and elegant, and she was also the number one lady in Huaihe City, and the Gu family was a well-known scholarly family, so it stands to reason that those who seek relatives should have broken through the threshold a long time ago.

But that's where the bad happens.

Her temper is originally pampered and willful, coupled with her excellent appearance. When he first arrived, there were many matchmakers who were entrusted to come to the Gu family to say goodbye, but Gu Jinyu either thought that this appearance was not good, or that family background was not good.

The Gu family followed her again, for fear that she would be wronged. But this time back and forth, Miss Gu Jia's pampered and willful, relying on a little bit of grace, the reputation of no one in her eyes spread.

Gradually, when the good people in this city mentioned the name of Miss Gu, they all stayed away and kept shaking their heads.

Now, there are fewer and fewer people who propose marriage, and the conditions are getting worse and worse, and Gu Jinyu is even more disdainful. After such a toss, Gu Jinyu was still in the boudoir at the age of nineteen, and her temper became more and more eccentric and rude.

Speaking of this, the Gu family is also to blame for their own sin, and they used Gu Jinyu to this virtue, but they still died without repentance and let her act arrogantly. If Old Man Gu had forced her to marry a few years earlier, there might not be these things later.

On that day, Gu Zhengze said a few more words to her about getting married, and she ran out of the house in a fit of anger.

As usual, Gu Jinyu went outside to buy it blindly, and came back by herself after her mood was smooth. With her character of bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, if she really let her out and let her go out to be self-reliant, she has neither the courage nor the ability.

But the Gu family waited until evening, it was almost dark, and they didn't see her come back, so the Gu family was in chaos.

When Gu Fuli was in a hurry, Gu Jinyu's personal maid Rui'er ran back crying alone.

After careful questioning, I realized that something big had happened.

It turned out that Gu Jinyu took Rui'er out of Gu's mansion, ran to the market for most of the day and still didn't lose her breath, and suddenly wanted to go to the Huai River for a walk, but this walk came out of a big event.

Gu Jinyu was walking on the edge of the Huai River with Rui'er, and a group of people came over, led by a fierce man with a beard on his face. As soon as the big man saw Gu Jinyu's eyes, he came over to stop Gu Jinyu and asked her what her surname was, whose family she lived in.

This Gu Jinyu was originally angry, but when she met such an inexplicable and vulgar person who stopped her, it was just adding fuel to the fire.

She relies on the reputation of the Gu family on weekdays, and she is used to being arrogant outside, and she doesn't know how to write the word convergence. Seeing that this big man's words were vulgar and his appearance was not good, Gu Jinyu's words were even more arrogant and rude.

Unexpectedly, that big man was not a good man, he didn't take the Huaihe Gu family in his eyes at all, and he wouldn't be afraid of her Gu Jinyu, so he immediately asked his subordinates to tie up their master and servant.

Gu Jinyu knew that she was scared now, but it was too late. was carried all the way to the place, only to find out that this big man turned out to be Song Wei, the leader of the Huaihe Salt Gang.

This Song Wei is a bandit bully who dominates one side, and even the Huaihe Zhizhou has to give him three points, and no one has even heard of the name of the Huaihe Gu family.

Song Wei locked Gu Jinyu in the Salt Gang, but put Rui'er back, just to let her bring a message to the Gu family.

Three days later, he married Gu Jinyu as his eighteenth aunt, and he will bring someone to hire him tomorrow, even if the Gu family does not agree, he has to agree. As for Gu Jinyu, he will temporarily live in the Salt Gang, he will naturally serve her well, and he will never treat her badly.

This was really a bolt from the blue for the Gu family.

Song Wei's name can be said to be known to everyone on both sides of the Huai River.

Not to mention that he is a bandit and robber who is full of evil and murderous without blinking, just his seventeen aunts, who do not see people alive or dead, account for more than half of them.

If Gu Jinyu marries him, it will not only ruin her lifelong happiness, but also whether this life can be saved.

Thinking about it this way, how could the Gu family be willing to let her suffer such a big sin.

Gu Zhengze and Gu Chengyu discussed and discussed, and they couldn't afford to provoke such a person at all. In the end, it was decided to go to the Salt Gang first, at least to bring Gu Jinyu back first, and the future can only be seen step by step.

Gu Zhengze and Gu Chengyu have been reading books all their lives, where have they dealt with these vicious Jianghu people. But no matter how scared I am in my heart, I can't watch my daughter and sister who grew up in the palm of my hand being ruined like this. The two had no choice but to bite the bullet, hoping that this Song Wei could make some sense, and put Jinyu back first.

But this Mrs. Gu waited at home anxiously for most of the night, and did not see the two come back until the hour, but they were carried back.

Both of them were seriously injured, although they were both flesh wounds, but how could these powerless scholars have suffered such injuries.

With serious injuries and a rush of anger, Gu Zhengze went that night. And Gu Chengyu has been unconscious, seeing that this Gu family is really in a catastrophe.

On the second day, Song Wei shamelessly sent someone to send a dowry gift, saying that the wedding would continue as usual in two days, and if Gu Fu dared to stop him again, he would not blame him for being ruthless.

The two pillars of the Gu family have fallen, and only some female dependents of the six gods and no owners are left, who dare to resist, so they have to accept the dowry.

Gu Chengyu was young in the end, and after being so seriously injured, he woke up the next day, and talked about yesterday intermittently.

It turned out that yesterday the father and son went to the Salt Gang with trepidation, and they persuaded each other with good words as discussed before, and only begged Song Wei to let Gu Jinyu go first.

But Song Wei not only refused, but his words were even more arrogant and unreasonable.

Besides, Gu Zhengze, a stubborn old showman, where has he been treated like this, he immediately scolded and scolded Song Wei for being a bandit bully who harmed one party.

When Song Wei heard this, where did he tell you any reason, he directly ordered his subordinates to beat the two of them. He also specially instructed that he must serve his future father-in-law and brother-in-law, and his subordinates will understand it when they hear it, and they will pick the place that hurts but will not hurt their lives.

This Gu Zhengze has been stubborn all his life, but he didn't expect that when he was old, he actually gave away his life for that breath and ended up with a bad end.

The female relatives in the family were very sad in their hearts, but considering Gu Chengyu's injury, they didn't even dare to tell him what Gu Zhengze had gone.

On the third day, just when the Gu family was gloomy, an unexpected person returned.

Gu Mingyi, or should he be called Gu Chengbi. He searched for several years and finally found his home, only to find this tragic scene when he returned.

Gu Mingyi saw such a situation at home, where could he still care about recognizing his relatives, so he only grabbed a servant and inquired about the reason for the incident, and left in a hurry.

Twenty years have passed, and the ignorant child has already grown into the man who is now in the wind in Yushu, and where is there anyone who recognizes him, just as a good person and asks.

On the fourth day, when the Gu family was desperately waiting for Song Wei to come to the door to marry, Song Wei didn't wait, but waited for a news.
