Gu Wanqian's eyes were full of doubts: "Did you fake your death before?"

Gu Xunyang nodded slowly and said nothing more. After sitting for a while, he continued to lie down and pretended to be a corpse. When he arrived at the city gate, the carriage was stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate. The soldiers guarding the gate were very determined. The driver asked to inspect the carriage. The coachman said: "My lord, there is only the body of our young master in this carriage... The deceased is the oldest, so please be lenient and don't disturb the deceased."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the coachman finished speaking, the soldier slapped the coachman hard. The coachman was so beaten that he fell off the carriage and knelt on the ground trembling. "My lord, please calm down."

Gu Wanqian's eyes were full of anger, and he opened the curtain in a hurry: "Except for my son's body, there are no suspicious items in this carriage. If you want to check, just check. I am not afraid of slanted shadows. I'm not afraid of you checking..." The soldiers pushed Gu Wanqian away, climbed onto the carriage, and went to check Gu Xunyang's body. Gu Wanqian stood beside the carriage, clenching his fists tightly, his eyes twinkling. Nervous, and at the same time, he was also very angry. His son was dead, but those people were still uneasy and sent people to do an autopsy in person. It was simply too much of a deception. Sooner or later, he would let those people take a look. Although he was a businessman with the smell of copper all over his body, he was not someone they could provoke. The soldiers rummaged through the carriage and confirmed over and over again that Gu Xunyang was really dead. , without breathing at all. Then they gave up, got off the carriage one after another, and let Gu Wanqian pass. Gu Wanqian helped the coachman up, and he got on the carriage again. The carriage restarted and went out of the city gate. They walked to Shiliting. At that time, Gu Xunyang asked the driver to stop. Gu Wanqian looked at Gu Xunyang with doubts: "Xunyang, what happened? You should tell me now, right?"

Gu Xunyang pondered for a long time, and then told Gu Wanqian everything that happened in Fan Lou. "As early as two days ago, Yun Luan sent someone to deliver a letter to me. She said that two days later, someone They wanted to kill me... I didn't believe it at first, but then I noticed something was wrong. So, I took advantage of the trick and took the fake death medicine sent by Yun Luan. Someone secretly changed the iron needle in Zhao Kui's robe... The iron needle can be expanded and retracted at will. The purpose is to create a phenomenon of suspended animation."

"Later, when I was pretending to be dead, I figured out the whole story. The person who wanted me dead was not Zhao Kui, but King Rui. King Rui wanted to use my death to induce you, father, to belong to him. His subordinate’s goal is to gain our Gu family’s vast wealth.”

After hearing this, Gu Wanqian's eyes were filled with annoyance. He gritted his teeth and reprimanded in a low voice: "Prince Rui, this person is really despicable and shameless... It's so sinister. He actually wants to use such a method to obtain the property of our Gu family... …Does he treat everyone as a fool and let him fool him?”

Gu Xunyang signaled his father to be calm, and a bit of coldness flashed across his eyes. "Father probably doesn't know that the person who really killed General Zhenguo was not King Yi Xiao Xuanyi. The real murderer behind the scenes was King Rui..." Gu Wanqian was angry, his eyes were scarlet. He clenched his fists and growled: "You bastard, you are such a bastard. How dare he, how could he escape unscathed? Could it be that the emperor and courtiers of Nanchu are all fools? ?"

Gu Xunyang curled his lips and smiled mockingly. "Of course they are not fools... The emperor had long known that the murderer of General Zhenguo was Prince Rui. But he turned a blind eye, protected Prince Rui, and covered up the truth. Yun Luan's current power cannot compete with Prince Rui, so she can only hide her strength and bide her time for the time being..." "Father, I remember you once said that without General Zhenguo, you would have died long ago. General Zhenguo and Da Young Master, they were brutally killed by King Rui, and this revenge has not been avenged. How can they rest their eyes and smile? The General's Mansion has done a great favor to our Gu family, and I am your son. Naturally, I have to take your place and repay the kindness to the General's Mansion."

"Besides, if it hadn't been for Yun Luan this time, I would have died long ago and become a victim of Prince Rui's men. My life was saved by Yun Luan. Our Gu family owes the General's Mansion two lives..." Gu Wanqian looked at Gu Xunyang in disbelief with surprise in his eyes. They had only been separated for more than a year, and he suddenly felt that his little son seemed to have grown up. "Xunyang, what do you mean... "Gu Xunyang looked at Gu Wanqian with burning eyes, and his voice was full of determination: "Yunluan is in need of help right now. I want to stay and help her secretly. In the past ten years, I feel that my Life has been idle and dull. But now, I suddenly found the direction of my life."

"Father, you haven't seen how Yunluan stood alone and bravely on that snowy day, beating the drum and enduring torture like killing sticks and nail rolling boards. She was covered in blood, and everyone thought, She couldn't hold on any longer and was probably going to die. However, she gritted her teeth and held on. Like a fearless warrior, she climbed up from the pool of blood, straightened her back, and dragged her bloody legs, step by step. Step into the palace gate."

"Father, I have never seen a woman so tough, so full of energy and vitality. She compares all the men in the world. I am a man, but I am not as tough and brave as her. I really feel that in the past My life for more than ten years was in vain! I wanted to help her, I wanted to be her right-hand man... I didn’t want her to fight alone, let alone let her fall into such a desperate situation again.”

Gu Wanqian opened his mouth in horror and stared at Gu Xunyang. At this moment, he seemed not to recognize the little son in front of him. When he mentioned Yun Luan, his eyes were full of admiration... Those lights could almost It ignited his whole body. The heart in his chest was beating slowly and violently. There were faint tears in his eyes. He held Gu Xunyang's hand tightly: "Son, you Whatever you want to do, just do it, father supports you. The lives of our father and son were saved by their general, and this is what we should do."

He took out a golden key from his arms and handed it to Gu Xunyang: "Take this key. The pawnshops, restaurants, and merchants in Kyoto will all be under your jurisdiction from this moment on." If you want to use the Luan, you can withdraw it at will... If it is not enough, just send someone to write to me and I will fully support it."
