A person's greatest despair is when he knows the truth but no one believes him.
This is the situation Gu Qingli is facing at the moment.
Ye Chanyi deliberately revealed the truth in order to destroy Gu Qingli's last psychological defense.
She never spares anyone who is hostile to her.
Gu Qingli deserved this.
Cui Ming had people escort Gu Qingli, Sanjiangyan, and the couple back to the government office.
Later, Ye Chanyi went to talk to Yan Guan, Lu Xianzhi stayed at Huichun Hall for consultation, and Dongfang Qing and others returned to the academy.
At this point, a framed medical accident finally came to a perfect end.
It was night, the moon was dark, the wind was high, and the wind was howling.
In the study room of Zhennan Hou Mansion, the candlelight was blown by the wind and flickered, extinguishing clearly.
Ye Zhuo, who was leaning on the desk, frowned and was writing something.
The shadows of the trees outside the window were whirling and swaying, projected on the snow-white window paper, like wild beasts lurking in the dark night, always ready to devour anyone.
Suddenly, there was a violent "clang" sound, and the originally closed window suddenly opened. Ye Zhuo was so frightened that he suddenly jumped up and shouted: "Who is it?"
However, the only thing that answered him next was the roaring night wind and the creaking sound of the window sash shaking back and forth.
There was no other movement for a while, and Ye Zhuo's originally tense heartstrings relaxed.
He let out a big breath and stood up to close the window, but he didn't know that behind him, there were two ghostly figures fleetingly disappearing.
Not long after Ye Zhuo went back and sat down, there was a "dong dong" knock on the door.
"Who's out there?"
Ye Zhuo said vigilantly, feeling nervous again after finally relaxing.
Then a familiar and gentle voice answered him, "Master Marquis, this is my concubine."
Ye Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the voice of his wife.
"come in."
As the door creaked open, Mrs. Qin slowly walked in carrying a tray.
After closing the door, Mrs. Qin walked to the desk, put down the tray, and said, "Master Marquis, have you finished writing the memorial for your resignation?"
Ye Zhuo nodded and sighed: "I just finished writing it."
He pondered for a moment, then said solemnly: "Madam, have all the gold and silver items been packed away?"
While filling the bowl with ginseng soup, Mrs. Qin raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm working on something. Don't worry, Mr. Marquis, it's been packed a long time ago. After seeing off Yan'er this morning, I made appointments with several people who wanted to buy our house. The buyer has now been determined and is just waiting for the transaction early tomorrow morning."
When Mrs. Qin said this, she paused slightly, and a smile appeared on her originally gloomy face. She scooped up the ginseng soup and handed it to Ye Zhuo.
"This time I met a big buyer, and the price was ninety thousand taels."
Ye Zhuo took the ginseng soup and put the bowl aside without any appetite.
He frowned and said, "Madam, have you identified carefully? There won't be any problems with this buyer, right?"
Ye Zhuo always felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Yesterday, he was defeated by Ye Chanyi. According to the previous bet, he not only had to pay Ye Chanyi 200,000 taels of silver, but he also had to hand over his mansion.
These are the wealth that he has worked hard for most of his life. How could he hand them over to his enemies in vain?
Now that he has lost his military talisman and his reputation has been completely ruined, he will definitely not be able to stay in Kyoto any longer.
After careful consideration, he decided to resign and go into seclusion, quietly sell his mansion, and take his family to find a secret place to hide.
After the limelight has passed, he will seek revenge from Ye Chanyi.
These are troubled times, and we have to be cautious about selling our mansion.
"Master Marquis, don't worry. The buyer has paid a deposit of one thousand taels first, and there will be no mistake."
In order to dispel Ye Zhuo's concerns, Mrs. Qin took out the banknote she received in the morning from her sleeve and showed it to Ye Zhuo.
"Master Marquis, look, the deposit has been given to me, so this banknote shouldn't be a scam, right?"
Ye Zhuo checked the banknote carefully and found that there was indeed nothing wrong with it, so he felt relieved.
Then there was a brief silence in the study. Both the couple looked sad.
Mrs. Qin, in particular, thought of how her beloved daughter cried heartbreakingly when she was separated from her this morning, and her eyes, which were already red and swollen from crying, suddenly became filled with tears.
She really couldn't bear that her beloved daughter was sent to a nunnery for the rest of her life at such a young age.
Mrs. Qin couldn't help but choked up and said, "Master Hou, I miss Yan'er."
Ye Zhuo took Qin's hand and sighed: "Madam, how can I bear to let Yan'er suffer such a disaster? Don't worry, when we leave Kyoto to avoid the limelight, I promise you that I will find a way to rescue Yan'er!" "
Qin nodded, and the next moment she thought of the culprit who caused all this, she gritted her teeth and filled her eyes with hatred.
"It's all that little bitch from the Marquis Wu'an Mansion who caused us to do this! Lord Marquis, you must not let that little bitch go!"
Hearing this, Ye Zhuo's face was suddenly covered with a layer of frost, and his eyes were filled with anger.
He spoke every word, full of endless hatred, and said angrily: "I have served in the army for half my life and made countless military exploits. What an honor it is! Originally, my wife was a virtuous daughter and my daughter was filial, and the family was happy. It was all Ye Chanyi, the enchantress. You have caused me such misery! I will definitely get back this debt a hundred times a thousand times one day!"
When Qin heard this, the hatred in her eyes became even stronger, almost turning into reality.
As if she thought of something, a sneer suddenly appeared on her lips, and she said: "Master Hou, I heard that there is a killer organization called 'Netherworld Pavilion'. It is said that it ranks first in the world, and all the killers in it are His martial arts skills are extremely high. How about we find the killers from Netherworld Pavilion and let them kill Ye Chanyi."
When Ye Zhuo heard this, his eyes lit up at first, and then he frowned and said, "This Netherworld Pavilion is indeed famous in the world, but they have always been elusive, and I don't know how to contact them."
As soon as the words fell, and the frowning couple was wondering what to do, they heard a sarcastic and arrogant voice suddenly rang out from inside the room.
"Master Bu Lao, don't worry, you have been waiting here for a long time."
Both Ye Zhuo and his wife were shocked, especially Mrs. Qin, who turned pale with fright.
Ye Zhuo hurriedly stood up to protect Qin. He swept around the room with his sharp eyes and shouted angrily: "What kind of rat is this? If you hide your head and show your tail, if you don't show up, don't blame me for being rude!"
There were only two very light crackling sounds in the air, and in a moment, two men in mysterious clothes wearing ghost-face masks appeared out of nowhere, as if they suddenly appeared in the room out of thin air.
Mrs. Qin suddenly saw the terrifying and ferocious face mask, she was so frightened that she said "ah" and almost fainted on the spot.
Ye Zhuo's face turned extremely ugly for a moment, and he felt even more frightened and uneasy in his heart.
The strength of the two people in front of him should not be underestimated. Even he didn't know that these two people had been hiding under his nose for a long time. If they didn't show up on their own initiative, he might not even notice them.
The two of them have extraordinary strength, and they hide their faces with ghostly faces. Could it be...
