Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Wu Fei stared at him.

Gu Yue touched the papers.

"These stationery are made of the cheapest jute paper. Anyone who wants something from Gu Xu would definitely look down on this inferior paper, so they shouldn't use it to write letters."

"Unfortunately, the Gu family was really poor at the time, so I could only use jute paper like this to write my manuscripts. I didn't take the scraps with me, and I kept them in the old house... They must have been stolen now." Gu Yue said, "They were stolen and used to forge these fake letters."

But the jute paper was thin, and when held up to the light, the ink marks on the front and back were clear. It was not cut and framed like the ones in the TV series Detective Di Renjie that he had watched.

However, there are still loopholes.

Gu Yue looked at it carefully for a while and smiled: "It's probably a rubbing. First, I made movable type seals for the words I want to use in my manuscript, and then covered them on the paper in order with light ink. As for why I still use jute paper... This kind of paper is too rough, and it's hard to see the depth of the ink, and it's hard to find any flaws."

He placed the letter on the table and pointed to the faint ink lines around some of the words: "These are probably the marks left on the edges of the uncarved seal heads."

He glanced at Wu Fei coldly: "Gu Xu would not have failed to think of this."

Wu Fei smiled and said, "Yes, the master did not believe it. Instead, he asked Chief Feng to keep the letter and not allow anyone to tell you about it."

Gu Yue was silent. He knew very well that this was because Gu Xu didn't want him to think too much.

"There is another thing I'm curious about. How do you know that I don't believe these letters either?" Wu Fei asked with a raised eyebrow.

Gu Yue said: "When Wu Feng was injured before, you acted very smartly. I think you should be able to figure out the logical errors and discover the flaws in the letter. In addition..."

"If I found out someone was betraying Gu Xu, I wouldn't be so stupid as to run up to him and question him. Either I believe Gu Xu has made plans and stay put, or I would kill him the first time I see him."

He looked at Wu Fei and said, "If you have already determined that I am an undercover agent, why would you waste your breath on me?"

Wu Fei smiled and said, "Well said."

Gu Yue asked: "So you came here just to tell me about the rumors in Luoyang?"

"That's right." Wu Fei's face turned completely cold. "I originally thought that you were just a villain who took advantage of Gu Xu's merits to seize the position, but I didn't expect... that you would have such thoughts towards the master."

"…That's a rumor." Gu Yue said.

"Rumors?" Wu Fei laughed, "The emperor, officials and people may not know the truth, but you, who are always around, are unaware of it? I wonder how you managed to deceive your master with your clever words and make him so devoted to you..."

"Gu Xu and I are just..." Gu Yue wanted to say, but was interrupted by Wu Fei.

"Gu Dashi, do you dare to say that the relationship between you two is pure and innocent, and there is no love at all?"

Gu Yue wanted to say of course, but couldn't say it.

Now is clearly not the time to show loyalty, but if he was asked to say that he had nothing to do with Gu Xu... he couldn't say it no matter what.

Wu Fei's face was gloomy.

After receiving these letters, Gu Xu showed his complete trust in the man in front of him without any doubt. The order issued afterwards was not to secretly investigate "Gu Dashi", but to recall all the people stationed in the old house for questioning.

For such a suspicious person, why?

"I originally couldn't understand why the master trusted you so much, but this time, I understand."

Wu Fei stood up.

"A homosexual, or an adopted father and son. Gu Dashi, if you don't feel disgusted, you should also think about whether you have tainted Su Huaiyue's bloodline. Don't you feel guilty about seducing an only son like this with your sweet words? For you, the master even completely ignored the hatred of the past and began to work hard for the court, wanting to be an official..."

Wu Fei laughed again: "Even if he was an official, you have hindered him many times. First, you took away his merits and titles, and now because of rumors, the official position he had worked so hard to get has become a bubble. What role do you play?"

Gu Yue's chest hurt more and more.

He simply stopped pressing it with his hands and moved his lips twice, trying to explain.

The remaining sanity kept him silent.

Gu Xu naturally had a complete plan for revenge, but there were already traitors among the Wumen, so the plan was only handed over to the six confidants and was not known to others.

Wu Fei, of course, was also kept in the dark.

He couldn't just tell a possible traitor everything about Gu Xu's future plans in order to defend himself.

How could all the rumors today, including those in Luoyang, not be a ploy to attack his mind?

Gu Yue said: "I have nothing to say."

Wu Fei expected such an answer.

He smiled and said, "I don't know whether you just want to play around or if you really have some feelings for me. I just advise you not to interfere with the master's future. Your identity is suspicious, but the master has never taken it seriously. He even ordered us not to investigate privately. He has given you enough respect, but what about you?"

"Besides hindering him and holding him back, what else have you done?"

Gu Yue was stunned.

"If you are really a caring person, you'd better leave early." Wu Fei said, "It's just an absurd gesture of helping someone in need. You can give, and so can others. Do you really think it's some kind of oath of love?"

He adjusted the weapon in his hand, touched the deep mark on the scabbard left by Shi San, and swept his eyes across Gu Yue and Shi San's faces.

"That's all I have to say. Goodbye." Wu Fei left.

The door opened and closed, bringing in a cool breeze.

Gu Yue staggered and held on to the table with his hands.

The pain in his chest finally broke out uncontrollably. He bent over and coughed a few times, and a pool of deep red blood dripped onto the ground.

Shi San fumbled for the handkerchief.

Gu Yue squatted down and wiped his mouth, looking at the pool of blood, feeling the fishy and salty taste of rust in his mouth, and suddenly laughed twice.

Shi San supported him: "You, doctor..."

"I didn't expect he was so nice to me." Gu Yue supported himself on the table and Shi San's arm and stood up.

"Do you think I'm going to say no?" He touched his chest and whispered, "Find a doctor to see me secretly. Don't let anyone find out... I don't want to die yet."

Shi San was stunned for a moment, nodded, and went out immediately.

Gu Yue piled up the dishes on the table, made some space, and lay down.

So sad. So sad.

Damn, what the hell does Wu Fei know? You're the only one who can talk nonsense here?

His mind was in a mess, Wu Fei's words kept circling around in his mind, and Gu Yue hugged his head.

……

Wu Fei had no intention of staying here. He didn't even have much luggage, so he went upstairs and downstairs as he had done before, and walked out of the inn in this small town.

He was a little bewildered.

As he guessed, the letters were indeed fake, but Gu Dashi's origins remained unclear.

Especially the master...

"Hero, hero?"

Someone was calling him from behind.

Wu Fei turned around and saw a man who looked like a guard.

"Are you from Wumen, sir?" the guard asked straight to the point.

Wu Fei's face turned cold.

"Sir, please be patient. My master has something to discuss with you. It's about the former owner of Wumen, Miss Huaiyue." said the guard.
