The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 482 Beating the Scumbag Papa (Part 2)

For Xiao Heng, today is a day of great promotion, and for Yuan Tang who finally escaped from the capital, it is also a day of joy and celebration.

Master Gu in Beijing was not so lucky. First, his back suddenly felt chilly in the middle of the night, and he felt that something big was about to happen. As expected, he was arrested early in the morning before he woke up.

He was completely dumbfounded.

what's the situation? How did he catch it for no reason?

His father was arrested in the frontier fortress, and he was arrested in the capital, what a fuss!

"Master Gu."

It was none other than Xiao Heng's new immediate boss Xing Shangshu who arrested him.

Xing Shangshu said seriously: "You are suspected of the crime of deceiving the emperor, I need you to go to the Ministry of Punishment."

Master Gu was stupefied: "Wait, speak clearly! Who is deceiving you!"

Xing Shangshu had expected that he would say this, brought up the guards who were on duty at the north gate last night, and asked the leader: "What happened when you were on duty last night, please tell me in detail."

The leading guard said: "Last night, Master Gu falsely delivered the imperial decree and left the capital through the secret passage at the north gate."

Gu Hou Ye said angrily: "I stayed in the mansion all night, when did I leave the city? And when did I pass the imperial decree?"

Xing Shangshu looked at the guard: "Are you sure you read it right? It's Lord Gu in front of you?"

The guard said seriously: "That man is holding Marquis Ding'an's token, and his voice is exactly the same as Gu Hou Ye is speaking now!"

Gu Houye's eyes turned cold: "Don't spout blood!"

"What does it look like?" Xing Shangshu asked.

The guard was intimidated by Master Gu's aura, glanced at Xing Shangshu, and said: "He is wearing a bamboo hat, so I can't see clearly."

Master Gu was furious: "You go to the mansion to check! Benhou has never left the Marquis' mansion! Someone must be pretending to be Benhou! That token is also fake! Benhou's token is clearly in—" Gu As Hou Ye said, he went to touch the token in his wide sleeve, but unexpectedly found nothing.

Eh?

Where's his token! ! !

"Master Hou! Master Hou! It's not good! Second Young Master is gone!"

It was Huang Zhong's voice.

Gu Chengfeng was gone.

Master Gu's token also disappeared.

If Gu Houye couldn't guess what happened, it would be unreasonable.

"Your Majesty! Your horse is gone!"

Master Gu's fists were clenched.

Rebel!

This rebel!

How come I didn't realize that the second child was so bold!

Without saying a word, he actually stole his horse and token, and left Beijing with a false imperial decree!

Why is he leaving Beijing?

God!

After Xing Shangshu's careful cross-examination, it was confirmed that the height and figure of "Gu Houye" last night basically matched Gu Chengfeng, and the characteristics of that horse matched Gu Houye's horse.

It was Gu Chengfeng who made the mistake.

Although it is not Gu Hou Ye who deceived the emperor, but his son deceived the emperor, he is not very clean as an old man.

The Ministry of Justice reported the results of the investigation to the emperor.

Just as Gu Chengfeng expected, his father was severely fined by the emperor for a hundred slabs. The father’s debt was paid by the son, and the son’s debt was paid by the father. , appalling.

Huang Zhong has calmed down, and at some point, his Lord Hou has been on the way to be beaten and gone forever.

Once again he carried the man into the carriage deftly.

...

The frontier is thousands of miles away, Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng are on their way almost non-stop. In order to get to the frontier as soon as possible, they almost change a high-quality horse every time they arrive at a post station.

The two were on their way even at night, even so, affected by the weather and the road, it still took them nearly 20 days to reach the frontier.

In the frontier fortress at the end of October, the cold wind howled and thousands of miles were frozen.

Beiyang City, Lingguan City, and Ye City have all fallen. Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng are currently in Yuegu City. Not surprisingly, Yuegu City will be the next target of Chen Guo's army and the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Perhaps the war is coming, Yuegu City is full of turmoil, and the people are in panic. There are few people on the streets, and many shops are closed.

Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng wore thick fox fur and led their horses on the somewhat empty streets. They discovered very early on that the further north they went, the more desolate the city was, and many people even abandoned their hometowns, or Absconded all the way south by themselves or with their families.

"what!"

A seven or eight-year-old girl was rushed forward by her family, but she accidentally fell and fell at Gu Jiao's feet.

Gu Jiao stretched out her hand and helped the little girl up.

The little girl's family didn't even have time to thank them, and took the child away with panic on their faces.

They were worried that if it was later, the city gate would be closed and they would not be able to get out tonight.

There is going to be a war in Yuegu City, although I don't know when it will be, but it is always right to leave early.

"Hey! You dropped your things!" Gu Chengfeng picked up an old rattle on the ground.

The little girl turned her head to look at the rattle, her eyes filled with longing and reluctance.

Her family took her away without looking back.

"Oh, really." Gu Chengfeng hesitated to speak, it was useless for him to take the rattle, since they didn't want it, he had no choice but to throw it away.

The situation in Yuegu City was more severe than he had imagined.

He sighed: "It's been like this before the war, and I don't know what it will be like when there is a real war."

Gu Jiao knew that in her dream, blood flowed into rivers, starvation was everywhere, mountains and rivers were destroyed, people were displaced, strong men were slaughtered, women and children were bullied, and the frontier fortress was reduced to a purgatory on earth.

"Do you want to stay at an inn or a post tonight?" Gu Chengfeng asked.

"Not at all." Gu Jiao said.

"Where do you live then? You can't live on the street!" Gu Chengfeng looked at the dark sky above his head, "I don't think the weather is right, there might be a big snowstorm at night, if you sleep on the street, you will freeze to death. "

Gu Jiao didn't intend to sleep on the street, she stopped and stood on the icy and snowy street.

She felt as if she had been here before.

Obviously this street did not appear in the dream.

She thought for a moment, then led the horse to turn right.

"Hey, where are you going?" Gu Chengfeng asked.

"The Prefect's Mansion." Gu Jiao said.

"Why are you going there?" Gu Chengfeng asked puzzled.

"Stay." Gu Jiaoxi said with words like gold.

Gu Chengfeng frowned: "Live... the prefect's mansion? Why do you want to live there?"

Gu Jiao led the horse and walked forward: "It doesn't cost money."

Gu Chengfeng: "..."

Gu Chengfeng didn't ask Gu Jiao how she knew which direction the prefect's mansion was in. Along the way, she was like a walking map, knowing everything!

But thinking that there is something called a map in the world, Gu Chengfeng was relieved.

The two came to the prefect's mansion.

There were not many patrolling guards on the street, but the outside of the prefect's mansion was heavily guarded.

"Who is it?" A guard walked towards Gu Jiao and the two of them.

Gu Jiao didn't say a word, just threw a token to him casually.

The guard was just a small soldier on the frontier, and he didn't know anything in the capital, but Gu Jiao's imposing manner, plus she and Gu Chengfeng were both wearing high-quality fox fur, they were not ordinary people at first glance.

The guard took the token and entered the prefect's mansion.

About half a quarter of an hour later, a middle-aged man in an official uniform trotted over, holding his official hat and hem.

Both Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng were dressed as men with masks on their faces.

The middle-aged man glanced at the two with a strange expression, held back the doubts in his heart, and saluted, "The younger one's surname is Hu, and his name is Hu Hai. He is the master of the prefect's mansion. The prefect has gone out to do some business. I don't know if the two adults will arrive , I have lost my way, please forgive me, two adults!"

Gu Chengfeng waited for Gu Jiao to speak.

Gu Jiao did not.

Gu Chengfeng remembered that this girl could not have false voice, he cleared his throat and said, "It's okay."

"I don't know how to address the two adults?" Master Hu asked respectfully.

Gu Chengfeng put on an official prestige and said: "It is inconvenient to disclose our identities, so you don't need to ask."

"Ah, yes!" Master Hu returned the token to Gu Chengfeng.

Gu Chengfeng thought about it, and took it for Gu Jiao.

Master Hu invited the two into the prefect's mansion.

Gu Chengfeng said with a tone: "Find a quiet yard, we may have to live in Yuegu City for a few days."

"Yes! Yes! Let's arrange it, little one!" Master Hu hurriedly agreed, and took the two of them to a clean courtyard.

There are three rooms in the yard, Gu Chengfeng asked Gu Jiao to live in the innermost room, and he lived in the next door.

"I'm going to pick a few clever servants over here." Master Hu said with a smile.

Gu Chengfeng glanced at Gu Jiao, and seeing that she had no intention of refusing, he nodded to Master Hu: "I'm sorry."

Master Hu exited the yard respectfully.

The manager followed up curiously, and said, "Master, who are those two people? Why are you so polite to them? You even let them live in Liuxiangyuan, that courtyard was..."

In the middle of his speech, he was interrupted by Mr. Hu, who whispered: "What do you know? They are holding the token of Empress Dowager Zhuang, and they are from the capital!"

The steward was dumbfounded.

...

Gu Jiao didn't care what kind of uproar her identity caused in the prefect's mansion, she entered the house, took off her mask, took off the red-tasseled gun and the small basket and put it down.

It was freezing cold outside, but inside the house was very warm because of the burning kang.

Gu Chengfeng walked in, took off the mask, and said to her: "Strange, didn't you hide your identity very well along the way? Why didn't you hide it here?"

Gu Jiao took off the deerskin gloves: "There is no need to hide, our whereabouts have been exposed."

Gu Chengfeng stared: "When was it exposed? Why didn't I know?"

Gu Jiao said: "The ancient city of Jinyue will be exposed."

In the dream, Gu Chengfeng was targeted in Yuegu City.

If there is no accident, someone will come to drug Gu Chengfeng tonight.

Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, Happy New Year's Eve.

I seem to be serializing every New Year's Eve, and coding every New Year's Eve.
