Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Looking down from above, one can see that Qizizhang is surrounded by a circle of soldiers, and the torches form a dazzling fire dragon, illuminating Qizizhang as bright as day.

Soon, the soldiers in the cave escorted a group of people out.

Gu Qingzhi widened her eyes in surprise: "Brother, is this the black mine?"

There was a large group of people standing outside the cave. At first glance, there were thousands of people, probably thousands in total.

"Well, yes." Gu Yan said affirmatively.

Gu Qingzhi was a little puzzled. How come the news spread so quickly?

She thought of things from her past life, and doubts arose in her heart.

Could this be the black gold mine case that later shocked Da Qi?

She tried to remember, to connect the dots.

Could it be that this was the black gold mine case that caused such a stir in the previous life?

Let her think about it, the location is at the foot of Qizizhang on the outskirts of Jianyang, Fuzhou, yes, it is here!

It’s just that in the previous life, this black gold mine case did not break out until more than ten years later, when the number of people working in the black mine had reached tens of thousands.

Moreover, the amount of gold, silver and jewelry seized was astonishing, several times the treasure in the cave today.

At that time, the case involved a very wide range of people, almost involving officials from half of the court, and at one point caused the court to be paralyzed.

It was my brother who was in charge of this case in the previous life. He was ambushed because of this case and had to lie in bed for three months before he recovered.

I didn't expect it to break out so quickly. Does this have anything to do with my brother?

Although she has been devoting herself to studying medicine and pharmaceutical manufacturing recently, she also knows that her brother is so busy that he goes out early and comes back late every day and has no time to rest.

She thought she was busy with other things, but she never expected...

"Hmm..." Gu Yan explained softly, "We were investigating the whereabouts of Zheng Shigao's brother Zheng Shiyong before. We didn't expect that we would find him working in this illegal mine."

Now that he has found out this far, he wants to get Zheng Shiyong out, so naturally he has to meet the person behind the scenes.

Unexpectedly, the investigation led to a major case with wide-ranging implications.

"So it was my brother who leaked the information to the government?"

Gu Yan didn't expect his sister to be so insightful and guessed it so quickly. He simply nodded and said, "This is the area under the jurisdiction of the King of Chu. I am only giving face to the Fourth Young Master. After all, many gentry in Fuzhou are implicated. This is not a good thing."

At this point, Gu Qingzhi raised her eyebrows slightly, "Brother, do you know who the fourth young master is?"

"Yes, of course." Gu Yan said affirmatively: "If nothing unexpected happens, it is the fourth young master of the Chu Palace, Zhao Hua!"

“It’s really Mr. Hua, but he just changed his last name.

Haha, not entirely. The Princess of Chu is from the Longxi Li clan."

"Oh, I see." Gu Qingzhi didn't expect that Mr. Li's status was so noble, but since they might not have any intersection in the future, she didn't take it to heart.

Their original intention of coming here was to find Zheng Shiyong, but unexpectedly, this matter was actually related to a major case that required some effort to deal with.

Now, they have finally succeeded in rescuing Zheng Shiyong, and his safety should be ensured.

"So, brother, should we return home next?"

Gu Yan nodded in affirmation and replied, "Yes, my dear, we will return to Sheng Tang Li the day after tomorrow. My family must be waiting impatiently."

So, after a few days, after Zheng Shiyong's problem was successfully resolved, Gu Yan and his party set out on their journey home.

However, on the way, they split into two groups, Gu Yan and Gu Qingzhi returned to Pengze, while the others went to Jiangzhou.

Surprisingly, Zheng Kunhuai was also leaving.

"Brother Yan, Sister Zhi, I am very grateful for your care along the way. This is a small gift from Huai, please accept it."

Zheng Kunhuai handed Gu Yan a book that he had carefully prepared during this period.

This book is actually a martial arts secret manual, which also includes the cultivation method.

This was acquired by him in his early years, but because this martial arts is more suitable for women to practice, his family has not been able to find a suitable candidate.

After observing for a period of time, he found that Gu Yan attached great importance to Gu Qingzhi, and it could be said that he held her in the palm of his hand and doted on her.

Gu Yan always puts her first in everything that involves her. Therefore, he decided to give this martial arts secret book to Gu Qingzhi.

They will probably like this gift.

Gu Yan didn't expect Zheng Kunhuai to give him such a gift, but he really liked it.

This gift touched his heart and he really needed it.

He has been looking for a martial arts method suitable for his sister to practice, "Thank you Uncle Zheng, this secret book is indeed needed, so Na Yan shamelessly accepted it."

Zheng Kunhuai waved his hand, thought about it and called him aside. In fact, there were already some signs of progress on this matter. His godfather had already written to him to tell him about the progress. He didn't expect that there was so much more to this.

He left today to verify some things.

Zheng Kunhuai hesitated for a while, but still took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Gu Yan, motioning him to take a look.

Gu Yan didn't understand, but after opening the envelope and reading the beginning, his hands could no longer hold the letter. His face changed for a moment before he gritted his teeth and continued reading.

The letter was quite long, spanning eight pages. After he finished reading the entire letter, he handed it back to Zheng Kunhuai with stiff hands, and his facial expression had returned to calm.

Zheng Kunhuai was a little anxious and wanted to say something else, but he knew that this matter could not be rushed.

Zheng Kunhuai felt that if things were not explained clearly, they would seem too confusing.

So, he explained the situation to Gu Yan: "I am the adopted son of General Tong Zhenzhou, the commander of Yanmen Pass. The Tong family has three sons and one daughter, and the daughter is married to the prince of Anguo.

However, my sister unfortunately died in the turmoil that year.

According to rumors, my sister was pregnant at the time, but ended up with two deaths.”

Zheng Kunhuai paused and spoke again in a low voice.

Gu Yan listened to Zheng Kunhuai's words, his eyes fixed into the distance, huge waves surging in his heart.

The shock of this letter was hard for him to accept for a while.

Zheng Kunhuai sighed slowly, realizing that he might be too anxious. After all, there was no solid evidence at the moment. He patted Gu Yan on the shoulder and comforted him, "Brother Yan, we will get to the bottom of this matter, and you should take care of yourself."

Then he waved to Gu Qingzhi in the carriage, turned around, mounted his horse and left.

Gu Yan silently watched Zheng Kunhuai's receding back, then turned around and got on the carriage.

He said to Yuheng and Tianji, "Let's go."

Following his order, the carriage started moving slowly.

This time when he returned home, Gu Yan did not bring too many people with him, because the Seven Stars Tower had just been built and most of the staff had been assigned out.
