He wanted to find a room, but after searching for nearly 10 minutes, he still found nothing.

Gu Xiaos back was unknowingly covered in cold sweat. Even the hair on his temples was drenched, and his face was as pale as a dead person.

No, thats impossible. Gu Xiao became more and more anxious and muttered to himself almost crazily, The secret room must be somewhere!

He Lie wasnt interested in playing with Gu Xiao anymore. He turned around without hesitation and ordered, Retreat.

Seeing that He Lie was about to leave, Gu Xiao panicked and was afraid. He tried to catch He Lie and shouted, Let me look again, let me look again

The Embroidered Uniform Guards beside him werent blind. How could they let Gu Xiao b.u.mp into their commander? They kicked Gu Xiaos abdomen ruthlessly.

Ah! Gu Xiao screamed like a pig being slaughtered. He staggered and hit the wall behind him. His abdomen hurt so much that he bowed.

Neither He Lie nor Gu Yuan turned around, letting the screams behind them echo in the small secret room

The group of them filed out of the secret room and returned to the bright and wide garden outside the dark and small place.

A refres.h.i.+ng breeze with the fragrance of flowers blew over.

Battalion Commander Gu, sorry to disturb you today. He Lie simply cupped his hands at Gu Yuan. Goodbye.

Gu Yuan returned the greeting simply. Take care.

As he spoke, the sweating Gu Xiao held his abdomen and staggered out of the secret room. Or rather, he had been chased out by two Embroidered Uniform Guards.

Gu Xiao. When He Lie looked at Gu Xiao, his gaze was as cold as ten-thousand-year-old ice. His voice was also sinister. Emperor Taizu stated that if you deliberately falsely accuse someone, you will be flogged 50 times and be conscripted into the army for three years!

Deliberately framing someone was a double crime.

Commander He, something must have gone wrong. Gu Xiao was so frightened that his lips turned pale. Cold sweat trickled down his cheeks. He was about to lose his soul.

50 strokes of the rod will take half my life. After three years in the army, Ill probably lose the remaining half of my life in the wilderness of Liaodong!

No, I dont want to be conscripted into the army!

The two Embroidered Uniform Guards immediately approached Gu Xiao and restrained him from the left and right. Their movements were rough.

Big Brother Gu Xiao was really afraid. He looked at Gu Yuan with pleading eyes, hoping that he could plead for him.

Gu Yuan had never been a person who repay evil with kindness. He pretended not to understand Gu Xiaos pleading gaze and instructed Wu Tong, Send Commander He out for me.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards came aggressively and left aggressively.

The area around the rockery suddenly became much more s.p.a.cious.

Fan Beiran frowned and looked at Gu Xiaos back, which was almost propped up by someone. Ah Yuan, what exactly is your cousin doing?

Gu Xiao has always been a timid person. Lu s.h.i.+ stroked his chin thoughtfully and said to Gu Yuan, He actually dared to go to the North Town Bureau alone and report that you were hiding the remaining members of the Yu family. There must be something fishy going on.

The others also frowned.

Yue Jun recalled how Gu Xiao had tried to get close to him outside the residence this morning. His expression turned serious as he said in a low voice, Gu Xiao was clearly very sure that someone was hiding inside before I entered the secret room

Everyone looked at the secret room in the fake cave in unison, puzzled.

Young Master Fei Liu continued, Ah Yuan, youd better be careful. Theres a high chance that your Second Uncle instigated Gu Xiao to do this. I wonder what the father and son are up to. They probably have a backup plan.

A few birds brushed past the leaves above, and the dense leaves swayed gently above.

Gu Yuans eyes flashed, and he didnt say a word.

After a while, he patted Lu s.h.i.+s shoulder and said concisely, I know what to do.

He suddenly thought: It should be my sister, right?

She must have resolved this situation without revealing anything.

Gu Yuan looked up at the black swallow spreading its wings in the blue sky and smiled gently.

What are you thinking? Why are you smiling so coquettishly? Lu s.h.i.+ nudged Gu Yuans shoulder with a smile.

The corners of Gu Yuans lips curled up even more. He turned around and walked towards the water pavilion. He only said, Lets go and continue drinking!

The tall young man left a high-spirited back view.

Behind him, Lu s.h.i.+, Fan Beiran, and the others looked at his back and exchanged glances tacitly.

When they returned today, they had to ask the elders, brothers, and in-laws in the family. They couldnt let Gu Yuan be bullied for no reason again..
