The flowing water is gurgling, and the alleys are criss-crossed.

At this time, in a narrow alley, the bluestone slabs were wet.

A muffled hum could be heard vaguely.

The guards standing outside the alley were all terrified.

Ling Yun was no stranger to this kind of scene, and his face was quite calm.

Not long after, Gu Xi came out of the alley moving his wrists.

Behind him was a staggering man. The tall hat on the man's head was crooked, and the corners of his mouth were torn. There were obviously no signs of being beaten on his body, but judging by the way he walked and fell, it might not have been more than half a month. Can't get out of bed.

The guards all took a deep breath, but did not dare to move rashly.

Gu Xi glanced behind him, "Do you know what's wrong?"

The man leaned on the wall and almost fell to his knees on the ground, clenching his teeth.

"You will know your mistakes in the end."

"Tell me."

"The last general should not reveal his identity as a general in public."

"anything else?"

"The last general... The last general should not leave his post without permission!"

"That's right, how to punish yourself is clear."

"I will understand at the end!"

Gu Xi was quite satisfied, so he winked and asked someone to come forward to help him.

"Qin Zhaoxian, it seems that being stationed here has drained a lot of your fighting spirit, and even your skills are not one-tenth of what you used to be."

Gu Xi's scrutiny eyes fell on Qin Zhaoxian.

Qin Zhaoxian's calves trembled, and he lowered his head, not daring to refute.

"What the general said is that the last general has slackened."

If the general hadn't been merciful, he would have become a corpse on the ground now.

"Next, I will stay in Jiangnan for a while, I hope you don't let me down."

Gu Xi left behind these words and left.

Ling Yun followed quickly.

Qin Zhaoxian smiled wryly.

The guards around him are all trusted aides, some of them have only heard of Gu Xi's reputation, but have never seen a real person.

He didn't expect his methods to be so ruthless, even Master Qin's skill could not take advantage of it.

They sighed endlessly: "As expected of General Ghost Face."

Qin Zhaoxian glared at them.

"It's good to know! Next time you meet the general, you have to take a detour! Don't get in the way!"

The crowd nodded like garlic.

When the two returned to the inn, Wei Rou was no longer in the room.

Gu Xi's eyes were instantly icy cold.

Ling Yun hurriedly said: "General, Madam left a note."

With sharp eyes, he saw the note on the table and strode over.

Gu Xi's eyes dimmed slightly.

The note was handed in front of him, with a line of words written in hairpin lowercase letters.

Jiang's house is a guest, so don't worry about your husband.

Ling Yun asked hesitantly: "General, are you going to the Jiang Mansion now?"

Gu Xi put the note into the lapel of his chest, and said in a deep voice, "Let someone keep Madam in secret. Follow me to a place."

Ling Yun nodded.

The two hurriedly left the inn again.

The shopkeeper raised his head from the account, looked in the direction the two left for a while, then looked away, and muttered, "What a strange guest."

At this time, Wei Rou had just stepped into Jiang's residence, and asked the housekeeper quietly: "How does the housekeeper know that my husband's surname is Gu?"

The butler was stunned for a moment, but his reaction was quick, and he replied with a smile: "Miss told this old slave. Miss is already waiting for Mrs. Gu in the backyard."

The corners of Wei Rou's lips curled up slightly, but she didn't take it seriously.

Jiang Heke would never call her "Mrs. Gu".

It's just that they didn't expect the Jiang family to be so powerful, and their identities could be found out in a short period of time.

It seems that there are Jiang's eyeliners everywhere in Jiangnan.

Wei Rou was amazed in her heart, but fortunately she didn't intend to fight against the Jiang family, otherwise she might have difficulty walking in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Xiaorou! You've come!"
