Chapter 399: Digging the coffin

During the whole meal process, nothing special happened, so after sending off the guests after the meal, Du Jingyi went back to Qiwu Courtyard first.

After she finished coaxing the children to take a nap, when she returned to the main courtyard, Gu Shaoyu had already sat down inside, and changed into more convenient regular clothes, but returned to the way she used to be.

"General."

"Coming back?"

"Hmm."

The conversation between the couple couldn't be simpler, but Du Jingyi saw some dense news before and after approaching, all of which were recorded.

Then he asked a little strangely.

"What is this?"

"All the living notes of the relatives of the Gu family."

"The general wants to check the people of the seventh room?"

Hearing Du Jingyi's words, Gu Shaoyu looked up at her, and then said with a smug smile.

"Madame is really Bingxue smart, but the people in the seventh room will clean it up at the end, and Madame came to see that there are a lot of problems in the third room."

After Du Jingyi sat down, he looked at it carefully, and the thick pile of things was all about the situation of the three rooms, compared to those superb relatives who just wanted to take money and be happy, these people in the Gu family obviously had a lot more brains.

There are all kinds of enclosures in disguise, buying and selling private slaves, and evading taxes with false accounts.

"Can't you see that the people in the third room still have such ability?"

Du Jingyi admitted at this moment that she was a little underestimated, in her opinion, the seventh old lady was much more difficult to deal with than the three old ladies, but she didn't expect that the book problems of the three old ladies were much darker than his face.

"The people in the third room are not so smart, so it's probably my third uncle who helped me."

Thinking of what the other party said on the table today, Gu Shaoyu couldn't help but chuckle, sometimes he was really strange, why did these people not have a long brain after so many years, and their cognition of themselves was always a little inexplicably arrogant.

If he wants to provoke and pretend, how can he not see it?

"This third cousin of the Gu family, his ability is indeed not small, I have dealt with him a few times as Yan Zhiqing, I have not met, but I can see that his means are not weak, the general means that he wants to suppress the third room and ask them to go to the third uncle for help? And then follow the vine to touch the melon? ”

"Not exactly."

Before Gu Shaoyu could continue to explain, he heard a sound outside.

"General."

Du Jingyi felt a little familiar when he heard the voice, and when he turned back, he saw Liu Xun suddenly appear behind him without knowing when, so he shouted in surprise.

"Why is Mr. Liu here?"

"My subordinates have seen the young lady."

Du Jingyi nodded in greeting, naturally he didn't think that Liu Xun's sudden appearance was to greet him, so he looked at his husband next to him, could it be that he had some arrangements?

Sure enough, when he saw Liu Xun appear, Gu Shaoyu was much calmer than Du Jingyi, but there was also a little more imperceptible nervousness in his tone.

"Did you find it?"

"Got it."

The dumb riddle between the master and servant made Du Jingyi quite puzzled.

What to look for? Could it be that his husband started to do it to Sanfang before?

She was about to hear what she had found, but she couldn't say a word when she was shocked by what was next.

I saw that Liu Xun's face was unusually ugly, and he was even a little hesitant, but Gu Shaoyu didn't allow him to delay so much, so he asked directly.

"The bones are not grandfather's? Isn't it? ”

"Yes."

has said this, Liu Xun can only tell the truth.

"After receiving the general's order, my subordinates led people to dig a tunnel from the ground, opened the old marshal's coffin, and compared the wounds on the left leg bone, it was determined that the skeleton inside was not the old marshal's."

"What??"

Du Jingyi was surprised, what is the bones inside that are not the old marshal's?

In addition, how could his own general let his subordinates dig his grandfather's grave? Or is it a sneaky digging?

Countless thoughts popped into my head for a while.

Could it be that Marshal Gu is not dead?

Compared with Du Jingyi's shock, Gu Shaoyu next to him was much calmer, but there was also some suppressed anger under this calmness, and then he asked a question, and his tone had become solemn.

"Have you found out where my grandfather's bones are now?"

"This is not available for the time being, the people in the seventh room are well hidden, if it weren't for the general's accidental discovery, I'm afraid that no one in this world would inquire about it."

"Continue to investigate, check more from the contacts between Uncle Santang and the Nanyang people, maybe it will have something to do with them."

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

After saying this, Liu Xun disappeared into the room like the wind, and Du Jingyi swallowed his saliva, and then said with a look of urgency.

"General, what's going on? How could he suddenly dig up his grandfather's coffin? ”

Gu Shaoyu adjusted his breath in silence, and only after he had completely calmed down did he look at Du Jingyi, with both hatred and sadness in his eyes, and then he told his calculations for these days one by one.

"Do you remember the day your grandmother was buried, and the grave was opened?"

"Yes."

"When the three uncles and grandfathers were making a fuss about not allowing the coffin to be buried together, I wondered if there would be something we couldn't see after the coffin was opened, so I obstructed it like this, so I took a closer look at it that day."

"I was also there when my grandfather was buried, and the coffin was still buried by me, and I put the unique black stone and colorful sand in front of the coffin in Cezhou, which was originally intended to let my grandfather rest in peace, but when I dug it up that day, I didn't see these two things, so I knew at that time that someone must have touched my grandfather's mausoleum."

Gu Shaoyu said as he spoke, and Du Jingyi was shocked when he heard it.

What good would it do them to move the tomb of the dead Marshal Gu?

"But at that time, everyone was waiting for the auspicious time to bury my grandmother, so I pretended that nothing had happened, and then asked Ni Yang to send a message to Liu Xun and let him secretly investigate."

"But didn't the general say that he would let the secret stakes left by my grandfather be thoroughly investigated? Why didn't it be used? ”

Du Jingyi's words hit the nail on the head, and Gu Shaoyu gently touched her hair before continuing.

"If you are the uncle and grandfather of Qitang, who has been operating in Jinling City for so many years, won't you notice the existence of a hidden pile? If you can't find it, what's the best way to do it? ”

"Lead the snake out of the hole and catch it all."

Gu Shaoyu nodded, Du Jingyi's words were very correct, and then he went over the people on the list in his heart before continuing.

"So, instead of letting him find out the dark pile forces behind me by beating me, I will pretend to be a fool and show him the power of Liu Xun first, so that he can focus on the forces that will deal with me on the bright road."

There is something temporary today, so I can only make up for it twice, and I will make up for what I owe to you tomorrow~~I'm sorry~~
