Mr. Zhang Ji's attitude towards "supernumerary disciples" has changed subtly.

Through the killing of the teacher, Gu Shenwei gained most of the doubts and admiration in Jinpeng Castle, only here in Zhang Ji, he felt a trace of disgust and vigilance, this is the reaction of a normal person, but it has become an abnormality in Shibao.

The two chatted casually, always cold, Zhang Ji was not as talkative as before, Gu Shenwei couldn't say the overheard words directly, and after a long detour, he didn't ask too many useful things, so he had to get up and leave.

Why some documents disappear, Zhang Ji believes that this kind of thing is very common, "either too important, kept separately, or too unimportant, lost, or destroyed for various reasons, I estimate that 23 out of 10 documents are just gone." ”

However, another thing Zhang Ji said caused Gu Shenwei to have a lot of reverie, and Zhang Ji himself didn't know that these words were so important, "More than ten years ago, Mr. Guo was the deacon of the ceremonial room, similar to the chamberlain in the palace, and followed the king every day to record his words and deeds, and that's how he started." ”

Gu Shenwei's father once served as a palace guard in the Central Plains, and he knew a little bit about the affairs of the palace, and immediately understood what Mr. Guo's role was for him back then.

Back in Dongbao, he found the lotus girl and entrusted her to inquire about the news, and soon got a reply, "Kunhuayuan used to be the house of the third young lord of the previous generation, and this third young master is the younger brother of the king, and he has been dead for many years. ”

Gu Shenwei's conjecture was confirmed, but he was still surprised, he couldn't have imagined that he would visit the Baiyi Courtyard at night, and he didn't find the documents to slaughter the Gu family, but he overheard a bigger conspiracy.

He went through all the details again, and felt that he would not be wrong in guessing ten times, and the next thing was to deal with it, whether to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, or directly intervene in it.

Strictly speaking, this conspiracy has nothing to do with him, but he does not intend to let Mr. Guo succeed, once Mr. Guo is re-favored by the king, it will not benefit him in the long run.

Gu Shenwei told the lotus girl all the information and speculation he had gotten, "This is your chance to make meritorious contributions, and the risk is not small, if you are willing, you have to act immediately, and it may be too late tomorrow." ”

"Don't you want to do it yourself?" Of course, the Dutch girl is willing to strive for the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, not to mention that this time the credit is not small.

"I need help, so you'd better be a killer too. "In fact, since this meritorious service is going to enter the inner house, the Dutch girl is more suitable than Gu Shenwei.

The lotus girl bowed to him, Gu Shenwei was very surprised, this was the etiquette of subordinates to their superiors, even when he was regarded as the leader of the "Arm Slave Gang", she was not so respectful.

Gu Shenwei nodded slightly, and calmly accepted this act of allegiance, he had already made it clear that what he needed was a "helper", not a "friend".

The lotus girl said goodbye, she was not Luo Ning tea without a city, and Gu Shenwei didn't need to tell her how to do it.

Afterwards, the lotus girl still told him the whole story.

There is a female apprentice in the small flag camp, who is friends with the Dutch girl, the master is the sixth young master, and the wife of the sixth young master is also surnamed Meng, and is the niece of the prince's wife.

Through layers of relationships, the Dutch girl was summoned by Mrs. Meng in the evening of the same day.

Mrs. Meng first expressed her gratitude, the Dutch girl used to protect Shangguan Ru on the way to the Iron Mountain camp, although this was a few months ago, Madame Meng did not forget, rewarded the Dutch girl with a lot of food and jewelry, and asked curiously about the training of female killers.

A maid led the maid to the transept to receive the reward, and whispered to her not to go yet.

After all the women in the hall had retreated, the Dutch girl was summoned again, and Meng Fu changed his face, from an approachable lady of a large family to a straightforward interrogator.

The lotus girl first swore that although she was a dowry girl brought into the castle by the eighth young grandmother, she had never served the woman of the Luo family, and that she was a slave that the big-headed god bought on the way at the impromptu beginning, and then she said some things she had heard.

This is the hardest part, the lotus girl can't take out all the speculations of Huan Nu, that would make her a suspicious insider, and she will push everything on Mr. Guo.

Mr. Guo once secretly plotted to wipe out the elite of Jiachen's apprentices, and although the conspiracy was never revealed, every Brown Belt Killer in the Little Banner Camp hated him.

As soon as she heard that Mr. Guo had found a document from fifteen or sixteen years ago using his identity as the sect master of the clerical room, and planned to use this information to embarrass the tenth son, she decided to tell Mrs. Meng.

Mrs. Meng is not a person who is easy to deceive, but that night, the Dutch girl succeeded, and Madame Meng was not ignorant of Mr. Guo's conspiracy, and as soon as the Dutch girl mentioned the "information from fifteen or sixteen years ago", her face changed, which also proved that Gu Shenwei's guess was very close to the truth.

Madame Meng quickly calmed down, lightly praised the lotus girl, told her not to mention the matter to anyone again, and then asked her to take her out of the inner house.

As soon as the Dutch girl returned to Dongbao, she immediately found Huan Nu and told her what had happened, and both of them felt that there would be a good show at the coming-of-age ceremony of the twins tomorrow.

As a result, they underestimated Mrs. Meng, and the show was staged early that night.

Madame Meng is not an honest person who sits and waits for her opponent to attack, as early as the grand wedding ceremony with King Dubu, she has already seen the antagonism and contradictions of this family, and knows that she will become the target of public criticism, since then, she has been pulling her own forces and carefully collecting the opponent's handles.

Madame Meng rarely used these handles, because she knew that if she couldn't completely defeat her opponent, attacking too early would only backfire, so she kept waiting.

The informant of the lotus girl made Mrs. Meng understand that the enemy was already in ambush under her nose, and she was about to launch a fatal blow, and she had to strike first.

That night, everything was normal for the vast majority of the people in the Stone Castle, only a handful of people were busy, and the next morning, the great changes that took place in the Jinpeng Castle would shock everyone, and the aftermath spread all the way beyond Biyu City.

Mrs. Meng's resoluteness and ruthlessness far exceeded Gu Shenwei's expectations, he didn't expect that a sentence he overheard would cause such a big wave, which made him re-examine the struggle in the inner house, and felt that Luo Ning tea might still have the value of use.

In the middle of the night, a maid in the inner house knocked on the door of Huan Nu's house and conveyed the order of the tenth prince, Shangguan Ru, to enter the inner house immediately to meet him.

Gu Shenwei originally wanted to give the credit to the lotus girl and hid behind the scenes, but he still couldn't help but get involved, and he was still very puzzled, how could Shangguan Ru be involved in this matter.

After he entered the inner house, he secretly admired Mrs. Meng's cautiousness.

Shangguan Ru didn't know what was going on at all, half lying in her mother's arms, her face dazed, and Mrs. Meng was just acting in the name of her daughter.

Also summoned was the Lotus Girl, who, like Huan Nu, didn't expect the whistleblower to trigger such a quick reaction.

Mrs. Meng sat on the couch, dressed in a gorgeous formal dress, which is the costume worn only by the ancestors every year, indicating that she is the rightful lady of the king, with her arms tightly upstairs to a pair of twins, with a serious expression, as if the children will die as soon as they let go.

There were only four maids in the hall, a candle was burned, and the light was dim, and Mrs. Meng and the twins were hidden in half-light and half-darkness.

"I need two people to do something for me, Ru'er recommends you two. ”

Gu Shenwei knelt down on one leg with the lotus girl, supported the ground with his left hand, and didn't say a word, this is the posture of the killer to accept the task.

"Although both of you were brought into the stone castle by that woman, I see your loyalty to Ru'er, so I trust you. ”

Madame Meng got down, turned around and stroked the twins' cheeks, smiled comfortingly at them, and then walked up to the two teenagers, and the maid stepped forward to signal Huan Nu and the Lotus Nu to get up.

"Now that our mother and son are in danger, we have to strike first, and I want you two to kill Mr. Guo. ”

The two teenagers looked up in surprise, both of them feeling that this was not a wise move.

Madame Meng knew very well what the effect of her words would be, and took out a folded piece of paper from her sleeve, "This is the king's edict, you can act boldly with confidence." ”

Gu Shenwei took the paper with both hands, and after unfolding it, he saw a few lines of words on it, "Guo Chun of the White Clothes Academy, is rebellious, has bad intentions, and can be killed." "The lower left corner is covered with the mark of Jinpeng spreading its wings, and in the entire Biyu City, only the seal of the Dubu King is golden.

Gu Shenwei closed the hand, and Mrs. Meng took the paper back in due time.

The two teenagers had no choice, whether the decree was true or not, they had to do what they were told.

"Ordered. "They got down on one leg again.

"Now, bring someone back to me. ”

The two received two white jade waist plates engraved with the word "Wang" from Yahuan's hand for night walking, and then left in a hurry, finding that there was still a black-clothed killer waiting in the next room, so they understood that killing Mr. Guo was only part of Mrs. Meng's whole plan.

Mr. Guo lives in Xibao, and the two of them have to go back to Dongbao to get the narrow knife, in a thick atmosphere of conspiracy, Gu Shenwei rarely kept his senses, and he had to leave a way back for himself and the Dutch girl.

"You go and get the sword and look for me at the gate of the main courtyard of the Eighth Young Master. ”

It was a peculiar night, and the boys were running inside the stone fort, and no night watchman came out to stop them.

Despite this, Gu Shenwei still observed all the way, and after making sure that there was no stalker behind him, he jumped directly into the main courtyard of the Eighth Young Master, and secretly came to the backyard without being informed, knocking on the door of the middle bedroom.

"Who?"

After knocking a few times, the voice of the girl in the room asked.

"The eighth young master has an urgent letter. Gu Shen lied to the end.

Someone in the house struck the flint and prepared to light the lamp, but Gu Shenwei hurriedly stopped it, "Don't light the lamp." ”

The person who lit the lamp stopped, and after a while, Miss Luo Ningcha's voice sounded by the door, "I know it's you, Yahuan's ears are blocked, say something quickly." ”

Luo Ningcha's composure made Gu Shenwei a little surprised, "Send someone to bring a letter to the Yang family, and ask Shangguan Hongye to leave the stone castle immediately and go out to hide." ”

"What's going on?"

"Yang did a stupid thing, and actually conspired with Mr. Guo to deal with Mrs. Meng. The king once pampered the Yang family, Shangguan Hongye is likely to be the illegitimate son of the king, and now Mrs. Meng has taken action to eliminate the disaster, Shangguan Hongye will die tomorrow morning if he does not leave. ”

Gu Shenwei hoped that Shangguan Hongye would live, not because he sympathized with him, but because he wanted to leave a trick behind, in case Mrs. Meng crossed the river and demolished the bridge, he had to have room to deal with it.

It's just that Mrs. Meng's actions are too fast, and he doesn't know if his arrangements are too late.
