It is true that as Yi Lin said, Gu Huai was pressed by things after his death, and there were many things to do.

Normally, he wouldn't have interfered in other people's affairs. But in the end, it affected Ruan Zhen.

If he arrived a moment late, he would not be able to bear the consequences.

"I have something else to do, so you should go to sleep first." He said calmly.

When Ruan Zhen heard this, her eyes were filled with astonishment.

The red lips are unnaturally swollen.

She wanted to say that Gu Huaizhi had been busy for too long and hadn't even taken a break since last night. Now he had to deal with official duties, which was really hard.

It would have been too much for anyone else.

He should take care of his own body.

But she knew that she shouldn't hinder his work. What Gu Huaizhi did was very important.

She could only nod slightly.

"Then you come back early."

There was still cyan color in Gu Huaizhi's eyes, and there was weariness in her eyes, but there was no need to delay the matter.

Things at Fanshan Temple were busy for a while. If Emperor Hui mentioned the marriage between Zhou Yuan and Mu Hansheng in Lin'an, it would be even more difficult.

Meeting the woman's watery eyes, he responded softly, turned around and extinguished the lights in the room, leaving only one on her bedside, and then walked out.

An Qi had nothing to do and was about to go find Chang Su to say something when he saw Gu Huaizhi walking out of the house.

She hurriedly greeted him.

"The medicine in the kitchen is ready and will be delivered to the girl."

"yes."

Gu Huaizhi first went to the study room.

He was holding the book in one hand and stroking his aching forehead with the other.

The Chi family was able to escape this incident. The old man was cunning by nature, so it would be even harder to catch him in the future.

Emperor Hui stepped on tens of thousands of lives to get to this position. He ignored the people and human ethics, was suspicious and ruthless.

After such a situation, I will only feel panic in my heart, and I can't wait to promote the marriage between the General's Mansion and the Xiao family, and use the power of the General's Mansion to help the Xiao family become the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

The imprisoned Gao Lu will become a useless man under the acquiescence of Chi Zhang and Dong Ying.

However... as long as this loser is alive, there is room for him to make use of it.

"Master." Chang Su came in from outside, with a cold air around his body.

He saluted respectfully.

Then he said.

"The prince will probably not be able to enter Beijing until tomorrow night."

Gu Huaizhi closed his eyes and did not respond.

Chang Su added: "Wu Xuchen is outside asking for a meeting."

Gu Huaizhi raised his eyebrows and then slowly opened his eyes.

Came earlier than expected.

A hint of disapproval came out of his mouth.

I just took the wolf hair from the desk, dipped it in ink, and wrote a few sentences on the rice paper.

It was nothing more than mentioning Emperor Hui's plan to make Mu Hansheng be more cautious in recent days.

Then he put down the brush, folded the paper in half, and put it into the envelope.

"Send it to the General's Mansion."

Chang Su: "Yes."

As the night gets darker, accompanied by the gurgling water, you can occasionally hear a few birdsong.

Under the dusk, it adds a bit of artistic beauty.

Gu Huaizhi thought for a while.

Zhou Xu should speed up the progress.

I wrote another letter. Unlike just now, I wrote almost half of the letter.

When I started writing, I added three more words.

——Yu Yuanliu.

He didn't say where he would send it, but Chang Su was convinced.

It must be given to Prince Jing.

Gu Huaizhi rubbed his wrists and leaned back.

Then he said calmly: "Let him come in."

Wu Xuchen was about to lose his temper.

But now he was being attacked from both sides, so what qualifications did he have to act arrogant in front of Gu Huaizhi?

Ridiculous, he always felt that Gu Huaizhi was not even remotely pleasing to his eyes, and even regarded Gu Huaizhi as his enemy.

Now, he has collapsed and has no way to go, so he can only come to find him.

Just remembering that he didn't even see his mother for the last time was heartbreaking for him.

With this heavy heart, he entered the study with a slight stagger.

He took a deep breath.

"Gu Huaizhi." He didn't speak for a long time, his voice was hoarse.

Gu Huaizhi turned the jade ring in his hand, and his twinkling eyes looked extremely gentle under the soft candlelight.

He raised his chin and looked at Wu Xuchen, whose clothes were a little messy, without any emotion on his face.

"Can you keep that matter a secret for me?" Wu Xuchen still has the arrogance he had during the day.

The words were spoken stiffly, but full of prayer.

What he thought was simple.

Those damn two people were under Gu Huaizhi's hands, and now he was the only one who was interrogating him. If Gu Huaizhi didn't let go, those officials were afraid that the case would be too difficult to handle, and they were eager to let go of the boss.

"Give those two beasts to me."

The dead are the best at keeping secrets.

As long as Gu Huaizhi remains silent, the result of his interrogation will be like the rumors in the public eye, with some changes, and the matter can be completely concealed.

Wu Xuchen's eyes were red.

"Don't worry, if something goes wrong with this matter, I will take care of it all by myself and you will never be involved."

"Think I owe you once."

As he spoke, his voice was choked with sobs.

However, these words were not what Gu Huaizhi wanted to hear.

The candlelight flickered, illuminating his handsome face.

He made sarcastic remarks.

"You thought about it for a long time and you came up with this idea? Wu Xuchen, I thought you had some backbone like your father. It turns out I think highly of you."

After he finished speaking, Wu Xuchen's body swayed.

The man's thin lips parted slightly, and the coolness sent a chill down his back.

"The year your mother gave birth to you, her father went to Hengdi to take office and the family moved. On the way, he got fetal contamination. Your mother almost died trying to give birth to you."

Since then, my body has been ailing and my stomach has never moved again.

Gu Huaizhi sneered: "What you can do now is just beg me to hide the truth?"

Are the heirs of the Taishi Mansion such useless people?

Why did he agree?

ridiculous.

Wu Xuchen held his head in pain.

"Then what can I do? What do you think I should do?"

"Isn't it enough for me to kill Gaolu with my own hands?"

However, Gu Huaizhi smiled softly and spoke heart-wrenching words in an unhurried tone.
