Many people watched Gu Yu enter the Zhenguo Duke's mansion, but there were still people who were concerned about Young Master Gu's physical condition and refused to leave.
The door opened and closed, and the reclusive old lady of Zhenguo Gong came out wearing a imperial edict, and the servants behind her held several imperial edicts.
Looking at the concerned faces, the old lady held her hands to them with tears in her eyes and said, "I would like to thank you all!"
"How is Young Master Gu?"
"Master Gu has sacrificed a lot for us, and this is what we should do."
"How is Mr. Gu?"
"How many injuries were sustained?"
"When will it be ready?"
"We are all waiting for Mr. Gu to come out."
The old lady said: "She is seriously injured and will need to recover for a while. When she wakes up, I will inform her of your concerns."
At this time, an officer and soldier came out and said: "Old madam, where are you going? I will escort you."
The old lady glanced at the man and suddenly became excited and said: "I remember you! Your name...your name?"
It had been so long that the old lady only remembered his face, but not his name.
The officers and soldiers took the initiative and said: "My subordinate Zheng Guan has met the old lady. The clothes and clothes of the Duke of Laozhen were sent back by me. The troops led by the Duke of Laozhen were completely wiped out at Sunset Pass. Zheng Tao was useless and guarded Linping.
In the military town, I could not go with him to meet the enemy, so I could only bring back the clothes and clothes of the old prince who had left them in the military town."
As soon as the old lady of Sunset Pass was mentioned, her heart was pounding, and she said, "Where are you working now?"
Zheng Guandao: "My subordinate is now serving as a captain in the Iron Cavalry Army and working with Lieutenant Shao. However, I will never forget the feat of the Duke of Laozhen who sacrificed his life for the country, nor will I forget that I was once a member of the Gu family army."
, As long as the government of the town needs it, my subordinates will be at your disposal at any time."
"My subordinate Yuan Lin was also a member of the Gu family army, and now he serves in the city defense!"
"My subordinate Zhang Xi was also a member of the Gu family army, and now he serves in the Palace Guards Department!"
"My subordinate Zhao Chengzhi was also a member of the Gu family army, and now serves as a government official in Jingzhao Mansion."
"Subordinate..."
"I'll be at your beck and call at any time."
Many people stood up.
Maybe not many.
It's just that at this time, they can stand up, which is enough.
Twenty years have passed. The old lady is old, Zheng Guan is old, and the scattered Gu family army are also old.
They all have weathered temples, but their high spirits when they went on an expedition with the Duke of Laozhen have not faded away.
Everyone knows that after the death of Gu Junyi, the Duke of the old town, the palace of the Duke of Zhen fell into desolation, with only a bunch of women and children left to barely support it.
Gu Yu, the only male member of the Gu family, is stronger than women and lacks the majesty of his father.
But now, the world has gotten to know Duke Zhenguo again, and has gotten to know Mr. Gu Xiaogong again.
She may not be as brave and mighty as the Duke of Laozhen, but her dedication to serving the country and the people has not diminished at all.
A lot of help will be given to the right person, but little help will be given to the wrong person. Just like this, in times of crisis, countless scattered Gu family troops will stand up and condense into a ball of fire.
The old lady burst into tears and said, "I can't thank you enough for your kindness and righteousness! If the Gu family is in trouble, they will never reject your kindness. If you are in trouble, you can speak to the Duke of Zhenguo."
Everyone agreed one after another.
The old lady held up her hands to everyone and said: "My old man has passed away, and now his son has suffered unjustly. The person who framed her is still sitting on a high platform. I want to go to the palace to seek justice. Please give me a ride."
In this way, the old lady was escorted by the Divine Eagle Guards, common people, poor students, and the few Gu family troops, all the way to the palace.
...
The Holy One has received the news that Gu Yu and five Wenhan bachelors were tortured. He was shocked and angry that his dignity was repeatedly violated.
He clearly told him not to torture Gu Yu, but he didn't expect Di Luo to be so bold and actually beat Gu Yu seriously.
Dr. Leng came back to revive him, but if he were a little later, Gu Yu's life would be in danger.
The other imperial doctors also said that the five Wenhan bachelors were beaten to a bloody pulp and were in critical condition.
Is this a fight against Gu Yu and Bachelor Wenhan?
No, this is a slap in the face.
When Gu Yu, the head of Wenhan Division, died, Bachelor Wenhan's lips were rotten and his teeth were cold. He could no longer do his best and was completely useless.
Without the support of Gu Yu, a first-class lord, and relying solely on the magistrates of Yunlu County and Changzhong County, it can be said that they fell in front of the aristocratic family, and the land equalization system could not be implemented.
Shao Wuji knelt down in Qinzheng Hall to plead guilty and said: "I really warned Di Luo not to torture Young Master Gu."
The Holy Emperor looked at him coldly.
Shao Wuji was bloodthirsty and had long wanted to eradicate Gu Yu. He believed that Shao Wuji had warned Di Luo, but as Di Luo's adoptive father, how could he not know Di Luo's every move?
It was clear that Dilo was allowed to do this.
After meeting the Holy Lord's gaze, Shao Wuji said in disbelief: "The Holy Lord doesn't believe me?"
The Holy Emperor looked at him with disappointment and said, "I said, I want to use Gu Yu."
Halfway through, he saw Shao Wuji's unbelievable expression and said, "That's all, I believe in you. But you have to have the people of the world believe in you."
Shao Wuji said: "Diluo will follow His Majesty's instructions. I will never say anything."
The Holy Sage said: "Wuji, it's not just that."
Shao Wuji has always been able to understand the Holy Heart, but now, he found that he was increasingly unable to guess the Holy Heart.
The Holy Sage said: "The people of Tongning County came to Beijing and told them that during the catastrophe in Jiangnan, you did not provide timely support, causing Tongning County to almost fall into the hands of the rebels. The fact that you killed 20,000 rebels in Jiangnan was mentioned again.
"
Shao Wuji sighed in his heart and said, "I know I'm guilty."
The Holy Master looked at Shao Wuji and felt very embarrassed.
Shao Wuji was his knife, he would do anything for him and he would bear any crime willingly.
He didn't want Shao Wuji to be convicted, but at this time, he didn't know what to do.
Fuhai came in with his head lowered and said: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Ji, the wife of the Duke of Laozhen, rushed over in her official uniform, saying she wanted to seek justice for Young Master Gu."
The Holy Master turned Shibazi's hand and paused, saying: "She hasn't been out for many years."
I just mentioned that Shao Wuji killed 20,000 rebels in Jiangnan. When the old lady came, he instantly remembered the death of Gu Junyi.
He did want to put Gu Junyi to death back then, but not in a cruel way like trapping and killing him together with Xirong.
But Shao Wuji didn't know what happened at Sunset Pass, and he came back with scars on his face that were so deep that his bones were visible.
He said that he wanted to save trouble and buried the Xirong people together with Gu Junyi.
The guilt in my heart overflowed again.
Fuhai reminded: "There is news from the Shenying Guards that this time the old lady of the old town is coming, and there are also a few Gu family soldiers from back then to see her off."
The Holy One sighed: "The Gu family army is loyal and loyal, and it is still the same after twenty years."
Shao Wuji said: "Loyalty is what they should do."
The implication is that this is not worthy of praise.
Sheng glanced at Shao Wuji and said, "Kneel down here! I will personally pick up the wife of the Duke of Laozhen."
The Holy Emperor actually opened the palace door and went out to greet him. Even though he was prepared, he was still shocked by the sight before him.
Fuhai quietly looked at His Majesty.
This is already a much more restrained situation. The scene when Mr. Gu came out of the prison was called a sea of people.
When he saw the old lady kneeling on the ground, he took three steps at a time and said, "Sister-in-law, please get up quickly! I haven't seen you for many years, are you still strong?"
In the past, when Jing Xuan followed Gu Junyi, he did call the old lady sister-in-law. After he ascended the throne, he naturally stopped calling her.
Now in front of the people, in order to win their hearts, he opened his mouth again and called him a name that he had not called for more than 20 years.
In the past two years, the old lady has looked very old, especially after seeing how Gu Yu held on to the lintel of the Gu family.
She felt guilty towards Gu Yu and had been depressed for a long time. Although she was only a few years older than the Holy One, she seemed to be two generations older.
Now I am holding my breath, hoping to see the day when revenge is successful.
Knowing clearly that His Majesty was just showing off, the old lady was forced by the situation and still agreed.
The sound of "sister-in-law" seemed to close the distance between the monarch and his ministers. The common people who were blocked by the Divine Eagle Guard saw the Holy Admiral, the old lady of Zhenguo Gong, being helped up, and they all sighed at how approachable the Holy Admiral was.
After the old lady got up, she said excitedly: "Your Majesty, you also know that Yu'er's child is just like her father. She is loyal to you and will never commit any crime."
The Holy Master said: "I know! I was extremely saddened by the impeachment of hundreds of officials, so I had to put her in prison as a last resort, but I didn't want the people below to violate her will and torture Gu Yu in order to extract a confession. Now that I have cleared her grievances, you can rest assured."
