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

When King Yin got closer, he smelled the stench of decay emanating from the corpse and stopped in a hurry.

Gu Xu turned around, there was still a hint of red in his eyes, but his expression had completely calmed down.

"Uncle Gu, he..." King Yin looked around.

His eyes swept across another male corpse on the ground. He had an arrow in his chest, his face was bloody, and his clothes and body shape were exactly the same. King Yin thought about it for a moment and immediately understood what was going on.

"Your Highness Prince Yin is quite fast on his feet." Gu Xu smiled faintly, walked forward, and diverted Prince Yin's gaze away from Gu Yue's corpse.

"Since you are willing to form an alliance, I will come as soon as possible if you have any problem." King Yin also smiled, then put away his smile and replaced it with a slightly frowned expression of regret: "This... So it seems that Master Gu wanted to fake his death to escape, but something unexpected happened halfway?"

Gu Xu stared into his eyes and did not answer.

King Yin has established a relationship with Wen Qing's Lingfeng Pavilion. Is Lingfeng Pavilion going to change someone to support? Gu Yue's letter mentioned that Lingfeng Pavilion is related to the Su family.

When King Yin approached Su Muying, Su Muying did not agree on the surface. But did he discover King Yin's ambition and take advantage of it?

Now, all he has to do is...

King Yin carefully observed Gu Xu's expression, and noticed the tears in his eyes, and he began to have some ideas in mind.

He said, "Young Master, in my opinion, there is something fishy about this matter."

"Oh? What can you tell me, Your Highness Prince Yin?" Gu Xu turned and looked directly into his eyes, waving his hand, signaling the people from Wumen to continue their work.

The crowd covered the body with a cloth and carried it away.

King Yin followed him with his eyes, as if trying to get more clues from him. He turned around when he could no longer see him. “I haven’t had much contact with Master Gu, but I know that he is a genius, good at scheming, and has a Western Hu guard with great martial arts skills—”

He looked around at Gu Xu's men and said, "There are also the group of people led by the young master. How could such a method be easily used to kill people? There must be something fishy going on."

Gu Xu said: "This is natural."

The hatred in his eyes was clearly noticed by King Yin.

King Yin smiled and said, "No matter what the rumors in the capital are, I think that you two have depended on each other for many years. This kind of affection is really rare and should not be slandered like this."

Gu Xu raised his eyes and looked at him, his expression a little dazed.

Seeing his reaction, King Yin knew that he had said the right thing, and immediately struck while the iron was hot: "But someone took the opportunity to spread rumors, their heart is damnable! Young Master, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not."

"Your Highness Prince Yin, please speak." Gu Xu's face was a little pale, as if he had suffered a great shock.

"The rumors in Luoyang City have changed. Later, it was said that it was Lord Gu who forced you, and it was not an affair." King Yin said, "This rumor is slandering Lord Gu, but it secretly puts all the dirty water on him."

Gu Xu seemed a little surprised. He looked at King Yin and said, "Your Highness means..."

"If they just wanted to discredit Lord Gu, they could have just spread the rumor right from the start. Why did they change their tune halfway through?" King Yin analyzed, "Combined with Lord Gu's attempt to fake his own death and escape, I'm afraid he had come up with this plan long ago."

King Yin shook his head: "Such good intentions are truly touching, and he is willing to risk his life... What a pity."

Gu Xu felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his brows lowered and his eyelashes drooped.

King Yin secretly observed his expression and pondered in his heart.

Could it be that his analysis was a lucky coincidence? The two of them really...

From this point of view, Gu Dashi loves Gu Xu very deeply!

King Yin was shocked by his own thoughts.

"Your Highness, there is no need to say more. I already understand my adoptive father's intentions." Gu Xu lowered his eyes and said, "I will not let this matter go."

King Yin quickly said, "I can help you."

Gu Xu didn't seem very interested in this.

"You can reconsider what I proposed at my residence yesterday." King Yin smiled, "But this time, I can help you unconditionally - help you find the real culprit who killed Master Gu."

Gu Xu said: "...Thank you, but it's not necessary. I won't tell anyone else that Your Highness has been here."

King Yin would not give up lobbying just because of a rejection: "Young Master Gu seems to have his own people. But whether these people are truly loyal to you is still unclear. Master Gu also needs someone to complete his own plan, right? After all, it is his last wish."

This sentence is actually a bet. King Yin is betting that Gu Dashi is also fighting for something behind the scenes.

He couldn't believe that such a smart person would have no interest in money and power.

Gu Xu suddenly raised his eyes: "What do you know?"

King Yin was overjoyed, he had made the right bet!

"Haha." He changed the subject. "I will investigate this matter secretly and give an explanation to the young master. I will also release news about Luoyang... What kind of news does the young master want to hear? Did Master Gu plot against someone, or did you follow Master Gu's plan and say that it was you who killed him?"

Gu Xu looked at him for a while and suddenly smiled.

"Your Highness, you are a really smart man. I sometimes feel that my adoptive father made a mistake that year." He said, "Since he... has worked so hard for me, I can't refuse his kindness."

King Yin smiled knowingly.

"Young Master is also very clear-headed. In the end, the living should be put first."

"...Then thank you for your hard work, Your Highness." Gu Xu said, "If the facts are truly ascertained, I will give priority to your suggestion."

King Yin was very satisfied: "With what Young Master said, I feel relieved. It is not advisable to stay here for long. I will take my leave first."

"Your Highness, please be careful." Gu Xu nodded.

King Yin left in a hurry as if he was hiding from something. After all, if his idle identity was discovered and he got involved in this, his entire plan would collapse.

After King Yin left, Gu Xu's face darkened again.

"Where did the two groups of people go?" Gu Xu asked.

"Boss Gu threw out something that looked like a jade pendant, and the men started fighting." Wu Huo said, "But I was in a hurry to save Boss Gu and didn't care about anything else... When Wu Men came to support, he saw that many people had died on the cliff. It must have been a loss for both sides, and the token was nowhere to be found."

"Where's the corpse?"

"It seems that there are mostly survivors in the wave of masked men, and all the bodies have been taken away. I am judging the casualties by the bloodstains and body parts on the ground. The Hidden Dragon Guards were basically wiped out, but the body of their leader Shen Wumou was not found. Our people have already spread a net in Yishan to search, mainly looking for He Guishisan and Shen Wumou and others."

"Shen Wumou..." Gu Xu murmured.

After a moment of silence, he ordered: "Bury the body on the spot. Let's go back to the Yixian stronghold and sort out what happened in the past few days."

"Yes!" Wu Huo replied.
