Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

Aunt Shi touched her belly, looked at Gu Zhu who was not far away, and her voice became lower.

"Master, my maid went out to buy food. I heard that the usury issue is a big deal. Now more than a dozen officials' families have been investigated. The Dali Temple is arresting many people every day... I heard that the Dali Temple also went to investigate the alley behind our mansion yesterday. Could it be that someone in our mansion is also involved in this?"

Aunt Chen also said.

"There are two families in my maternal family who are also sixth-rank officials. Both of their families have been sealed off. This matter has caused too much trouble. Master, you must send someone to investigate it thoroughly. Our mansion must not be involved in this matter."

When Minister Gu heard their words and saw their frightened looks, he nodded.

Just when Zhu was about to take Nanny Zhu back home, Minister Gu's men came in to report.

"Master, something bad has happened. Someone from the Dali Temple has come to our house. They said they want to ask Madam Zhu and Madam Zhu's brother about something..."

what?

When Minister Gu heard this, his expression changed instantly.

"Bring people in."

Zhu had never expected that someone from the Dali Temple would come to her house at such a time. She was nervous and a little scared. How could this happen?

Didn't those people escape? Why did the people from Dali Temple come to visit?

Gu Qing was also a little anxious. How could things turn out like this? Why did the people from the Dali Temple come to visit Madam Zhu?

Could it be that they have obtained evidence?

Or maybe the people from the Dali Temple just came to ask questions.

Minister Gu met with the minor official from the Dali Temple in the hall.

"Your humble servant greets Lord Gu."

"Get up. I wonder what you are here for?" Minister Gu asked with a cold face.

"Looking back at what you said, the Dali Temple is investigating the loan sharking incident... Our people found out that those people met with Nanny Zhu's brother before they disappeared, and they had a very good relationship before... We found some clues, so now we are here to question Nanny Zhu and her brother..."

"Mrs. Zhu made a mistake and I have already spanked her thirty times. She has fainted and cannot speak. Butler Gu, send someone to call Mrs. Zhu's brother."

Minister Gu ordered.

"The villain obeys your orders."

After an incense stick of time, the servant came back quickly, looking a little anxious.

"Master, Nanny Zhu's brother is missing, and Nanny Zhu's brother and his family are also missing."

what?

When Minister Gu heard this, his expression became even uglier.

"Send someone to look for him quickly." Minister Gu didn't expect that just when he sent someone to investigate these things, Nanny Zhu's brother disappeared. Nanny Zhu's brother and his family also disappeared.

Zhu's face also looked very ugly. She looked at her son Gu Qing.

Gu Qing nodded at her.

Gu Zhu blinked. Was it her son who sent someone to send them away?

Gu Zhu felt relieved. Great! Her son was really good. He actually sent her away.

But before she could be happy for long, another report from the servants came to the door.

"Master, the soldiers from the camp outside the capital sent a few people here. They said they were acting suspiciously and were carrying a lot of jewelry and banknotes, so they arrested them. I heard they were from your mansion, so I sent them back..."

what?

Gu Zhushi and Gu Qing's faces suddenly turned ugly. They looked at each other and then looked at Minister Gu.
