Chapter 170 Uncovering the truth

On the way out of Zhenling Temple, Chu Xiaoyun had been clearing his mind.

The Zhenling Temple was built five years after the entire army of the Gu family's guards were wiped out, and the time coincided exactly, which explained why the bones of the Gu's guards were buried under the Zhenling Temple but no one found them.Zhenling Temple, Zhenling Temple, the name Chu Xiaoyun felt a little uncomfortable the first time he heard it, but now it seems that there is something wrong with this temple itself.The purpose of building it should be to hide the traces of the bones of the dead Gu family guards and suppress those innocent ghosts who died in vain, so it took such a weird name.And the act of artificially erasing the identity traces of the corpses in the corpse pit should also cover up the identities of those corpses during their lifetime.

It all makes sense.

From Fangchuan County to Hejing County, the water route is much faster than the land route.Chu Xiaoyun hired a boat, asked the owner to add boatmen, speeded up, went down the river, and returned to Hejing County at dawn the next day.Regardless of Wei Jinghan not getting up yet, let the young man enter the room to report.

When Wei Jinghan heard that Chu Xiaoyun had returned, he grabbed a coat and put it on, and walked out before it was fastened.He greeted Chu Xiaoyun while walking, and tied his clothes belt.

Wei Jinghan has always been a polite person in Chu Xiaoyun's heart. He has never seen Wei Jinghan look so casual. Chu Xiaoyun felt a little uncomfortable for a while, and his eyes seemed to have nowhere to rest.Soon, he withdrew his gaze for a moment from Wei Jinghan's hand on the belt, and greeted Wei Jinghan with his hands folded.Then he highlighted the key points of his trip to the capital, and reported it to Wei Jinghan in the shortest words.Then he said eagerly: "My lord, the fake Gu Qingyun's identity is very important, and this matter cannot be delayed for a moment. This subordinate requests my lord to send people to surround Gu's family immediately, lest the fake person escape."

Wei Jinghan is actually quite capable of strategizing, he knows many things better than Chu Xiaoyun, but this time he was also very shocked that the Gu Qingyun they had dealt with before brought back by Chu Xiaoyun was a fake.It has to be said that he has calculated thousands of times, and it's not that he has never thought that Gu Qingyun is not a good stubble, but the only thing he missed is that the richest man in Dacheng is a fake.

Wei Jinghan quickly sent someone to inform Fang Lingfeng to come, and let Fang Lingfeng go to a nearby barracks to transfer troops.Afterwards, he and Chu Xiaoyun rode to the Gu family's main house together.

After this series of actions, Chu Xiaoyun finally felt Fang Lingfeng's identity.Although he knew Fang Lingfeng's true identity long ago in the capital.But knowing the identity and seeing is believing the aura are completely different feelings.

Such a person, how could I have thought that he was just an ordinary book boy.Chu Xiaoyun couldn't help laughing at his naive thoughts before, and shook his head repeatedly.

The Gu family's mansion in the early morning has not yet woken up from the silence, and it seems quiet.But the brilliant lights and the stone carvings in front of the door still show the world the extraordinary financial resources of the owner.

The mansion of the richest man in Dacheng, the famous Gu family, after Gu Qingyun came back as a fake, changed the desolation of the young master when he was imprisoned, and restored the prosperity of the past.Today, this prosperous mansion is surrounded by the government.

The people around were startled.Although it was still early, many people watching the excitement were surrounded by the people who came after hearing the news.In order to protect the safety of the people, the government had to send people to evacuate.

The Gu family did not have the forceful counterattack that Chu Xiaoyun expected, and Chu Xiaoyun had a bad premonition in his heart.

Gu Yuanwai and his wife, who were awakened by the servant's panic report early in the morning, were shocked to see Wei Jinghan and Chu Xiaoyun coming to the door with heavy troops.After saluting to Wei Jinghan and Chu Xiaoyun, Gu Yuanwai asked with an unhappy expression, "I don't know if Mr. Wei and Chu Butou came to the humble house early in the morning, and even sent troops to surround the humble house, what advice do you have?"

Chu Xiaoyun cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Gu, this time we came here not to find fault, but to save the Gu family for the safety of the elders."

While speaking, he couldn't help but look around the Gu family's courtyard, trying to find the fake Gu Qingyun.

"What a joke!" Mr. Gu said angrily, "You have besieged my Gu mansion with heavy troops, so what's the face of my Gu family when it gets out? How will the people of Hejing County see my Gu family, and how will the people of the world talk about it? The Hejing County yamen wronged me before My son, I was in prison in vain. My Gu family chose to endure humiliation for the sake of the stability of the country. Later, you also found out the authenticity, and now you come here again. Do you really think that my Gu family has no one? Your government should not bully people too much!"

Wei Jinghan said from the side: "Mr. Gu, don't get angry. Chu Butou is right. We came here this time for the safety of your elders, and we have no other intentions. The current Mr. Gu in the house is not your own son. Gu Qingyun."

"What?" Gu Yuanwai was furious, "It's nonsense! Mr. Wei, I respect you as a parent and official, so don't make irresponsible remarks!"

While Wei Jinghan was talking with Gu Yuanwai, Chu Xiaoyun looked around and asked at the same time: "Gu Yuanwai, Mrs. Gu, your two elders came to receive us early in the morning. I wonder where Mr. Gu is?"

After the noise just now, the bad premonition in his heart became stronger.The battle in the government was so big, the fake Gu Qingyun did not come out to put on airs, nor did the officers and soldiers who were besieged outside catch the fleeing people from the mansion to report.Could it be that the counterfeit is not in the mansion?

That would be bad!

But when he heard that Gu Yuanwai was disrespectful to Wei Jinghan, and his misunderstanding of them deepened, he remembered the token, the letter, that he asked Gu Qingyun for before he left.Chu Xiaoyun hurriedly took out the letter, handed it to Member Gu with both hands, and said earnestly: "Mr. Gu, I have a letter from your real son here. You can choose whether to believe us or not after reading it."

"You are..." Member Gu was furious, and waved his hand to brush away the letter in Chu Xiaoyun's hand.

Mrs. Gu, who was standing by the side and hadn't made a sound yet, stepped forward and said, "Master, why don't you read it before you talk about it."

Facing his wife, Mr. Gu calmed down a lot, but he still said with emotion and surprise: "Madam, do you know what they are talking about?"

Mrs. Gu said with a sad face: "Of course I know, I am listening here with you. It is said that knowing a child is like a mother. After Yun'er came back, there were indeed some things that I couldn't understand. I thought it was a few years ago. The injustice made him change his mood, and he didn't take it seriously, now that the government has an explanation, why don't we just take a look, and we won't lose anything."

When his wife said this, Yuan Wai was even more surprised.But with his wife's persuasion, his anger calmed down a lot.

Member Gu took the letter that Chu Xiaoyun handed over, and after a single glance, surprise appeared in his eyes.After reading the letter, the hands holding the letter began to tremble, and Mrs. Gu, who had been reading the letter, was already in tears. She took out a handkerchief and kept wiping the tears off her face.

"This, this... What is going on here? How could it be like this?" Mr. Gu's hands trembling while holding the letter, but his tone was half-doubtful.

Chu Xiaoyun said: "Mr. Gu, the matter is urgent now. I will explain the details of the young master's matter to you later. Can you tell Mr. Wei where the counterfeit went?"

It was only then that Mr. Gu came to his senses, he exchanged a glance with his wife, and then told him, "Three days ago, he told us that he wanted to go on a long trip to discuss business."

"Run away?" Chu Xiaoyun exclaimed, "Did he say where to go?"

It's not that Chu Xiaoyun never thought that the counterfeit would not be in the Gu family's mansion at this time, but he didn't expect that he had already run away three days ago.

Member Gu shook his head with some frustration: "Although I still hold the title of the head of the Gu family, in fact the Gu family is already in charge of Yun'er. We have always believed in his ability, and we didn't ask too much. The Gu family has a big business, and he If there is any news, people will naturally pass it back."

Chu Xiaoyun calculated the time. Three days ago, it was the second day after the collapse of the main hall of the Zhenling Temple and the discovery of bones, which was almost the day when the news reached Hejing County.It seems that the imposter learned that the main hall of Zhenling Temple had collapsed, and after some calculations, he knew that the matter could not be concealed, so he decisively chose to run away.

I ran all the way for thousands of miles, but let the culprit escape.Chu Xiaoyun was a little discouraged for a while, but he soon calmed down.He said to Mr. Gu: "That's it. I wonder if it's convenient for me to have a look at Mr. Gu's room?"

After these changes, Gu Yuanwai and his wife seemed to have aged a lot.Hearing Chu Xiaoyun's request, the husband and wife exchanged glances, and Mrs. Gu said, "Master Wei, Chief Chu, this way please."

Entering Gu Qingyun's room, not only Chu Xiaoyun and the others were shocked, but Gu Yuanwai and his wife were even more shocked.In Gu Qingyun's room, all valuables have been looted, except for the items that cannot be moved, there is not even a piece of clothing left.

If Gu Yuanwai and his wife were hesitant when they read the letter before, the scene at this moment has completely dispelled the hesitation in their hearts.The couple hugged each other and cried.

Chu Xiaoyun and Wei Jinghan stood aside, knowing that words of comfort would not do anything.The two cried for a while, and suddenly Mrs. Gu raised her head and said, "That guy ran away... Then, what about the child and Xiuzhu? Is Bao'er still our grandson?"

"????" Chu Xiaoyun was completely stunned by Mrs. Gu's words, and Wei Jinghan beside him was no exception.

"Mrs. Gu, what are you talking about about the child? Who are Bao'er and Xiuzhu?"

"This..." Mrs. Gu hesitated to speak.She looked at her husband, as if hesitating.

Chu Xiaoyun persuaded from the side: "This is the end of the matter, what else is Madam Gu worried about? You know, that counterfeit is the main culprit that caused your husband and wife to be separated from your son for five years, the husband and wife reconciled, and the family disharmony." .”

Gu Yuanwai met his wife's gaze, and sighed after a while: "There is nothing to hide now. Just tell me what you know. The face of the Gu family is lost anyway. I am sorry for my old friend. , did not take care of his daughter."

Then he said to Wei Jinghan and Chu Xiaoyun: "Master Wei, Chief Chu, this is not a place to talk, so why not take a step to talk."

"Okay, but it depends on the arrangement of the staff." Wei Jinghan replied.

Chu Xiaoyun cupped his hands and said to Wei Jinghan: "My lord, can you first issue the arrest document at sea to track down the whereabouts of that guy. Although we are a step late, we can't let the thief get away with it."

Wei Jinghan nodded: "Okay, please ask Mr. Gu to borrow a pen and ink. Master Yu, bring me my official seal."

Wei Jinghan wrote the arrest document, and Master Yu was ordered to go out and hand it over to Fang Lingfeng and Wang Sanqiang who were guarding outside Gu's mansion.

In the lobby of the Gu family, Wei Jinghan said to the Gu family couple: "You two can talk."

Gu Yuanwai and his wife looked at each other, it's hard to put it into words.In the end, it was Gu Yuanwai who spoke first.

"Three years ago, Yun'er... that guy... Anyway, he was wrongly imprisoned by Zhou Sheng, and our Gu family was unwilling to let it go. Although the Hejing county government repeatedly prevented us from visiting Yun'er, we still found him through our contacts. After leaving the path of visitation, I went to visit Yun'er in prison. I told the person who pretended to be Yun'er that the Hejing county government had fallen into the trap of Zhou Sheng for some reason, and insisted on killing him. Went to Beijing to appeal for grievances, sued imperial court. But he said..."

Having said this, Gu Yuanwai stopped suddenly.

Chu Xiaoyun looked towards Member Gu in surprise, but Wei Jinghan seemed to understand: "Today, only you and I are here, just to present the case, the emperor will not blame you for the crime of collision."

Gu Yuanwai still hesitated, but Wei Jinghan signaled to Master Yu who returned from the announcement to fetch the Shangfang sword: "The imperial gift sword is here, as if His Majesty came in person. What I said today is just to state the case. Forgive your innocence."
