Fengyang County County Supervisor and Censor Official Office
Yao He was cursing at this time and his expression was ashen.
"This Yu You is really crazy. Isn't it good to live a good life? He actually wants to rebel?!"
In anger, he couldn't help but slapped the table hard.
Many scribes from the government offices nearby looked at this scene, secretly looking at each other and remaining silent. How many times has the censor slapped the table? My hands are red!
Don't blame Yao He for getting angry.
Whether it was the last time the four major families coerced Yu Tongguang into attacking suddenly, or this time the Yu family took action against the other three major families, the County Supervisor Yu Shifu was always a hindsight and was forced to help wipe the mess later.
The former Sheriff just had a problem.
The current acting county governor has another problem, how can he cover it up?
But if he didn't cover it up and the news spread back to the court, wouldn't it mean that he, the county supervisor and censor, was incompetent? This position is definitely not guaranteed, and may even be relegated.
Next to them, Zhang Yi and Qi Yi were sitting on the left, with Qi Yi in the first place. He looked at Zhang Yi next to him and motioned for Zhang Yi to speak.
Zhang Yi had no choice but to cough dryly.
"Inspector Yao, actually this matter is not particularly troublesome to deal with!"
"Although County Governor Yu is in trouble, we can't be like him. This time, it was only County Governor Yu who was coerced and was forced to attack other families like us. And Supervisor Yao understood the key early and ordered us to advance in advance. Make preparations and crush the conspiracy of the remnants of the previous county governor’s office in one fell swoop!”
Zhang Yi's scalp was numb at this time, and he couldn't believe what he said.
But he had to do it.
After all, as the acting governor, Yu You represents the justice of the court.
Everyone has already killed the first county guard, and if they kill the second county guard, the Daqian court will definitely have doubts about this. This kind of suspicion will not do any good to the three major families in the county.
Yao He's eyes lit up when he heard this. Zhang Yi thought it was full of flaws, but he thought the answer was great.
He was slightly happy, and the anger on his face slowly faded away. He nodded, glanced at Zhang Yi with admiration, and said with a puffed-up chest.
"The head of the Zhang family has given too much credit, this is what I should do.
Since I am the censor of the county, I cannot allow the remnants of the previous county governor to secretly interfere and cause trouble in Fengyang County! "
"It's a pity that County Sheriff Yu Youyu worked hard, but was hurt by the remnants of the previous county governor, and became a puppet to help the evildoers!"
Yao He stroked his beard slightly, a look of regret appeared on his face.
Qi Yi and Zhang Yi looked at this scene and nodded secretly.
They could only do this for the present. Although they wanted to kill Yu You quickly, they could only help the Yu family to cover up a few things, so as to prevent the whole family and the Zhang family from becoming lost to everyone.
The majesty of the imperial court cannot be faced head-on by the two families today.
Just at this moment, Zhang Hu hurriedly walked in outside the county supervisor's censor's mansion. He leaned slightly closer to Zhang Yi and spoke a few words in his ear.
After the words fell, Zhang Yi's expression suddenly changed.
"Zhang Yi, what's wrong?"
Qi Yi looked over.
Zhang Yi took a deep breath, faced Yao He, and said with Qi Yi's eyes: "We have received definite news that Yu You and the previous county governor Yu Tongguang are of the same clan, and they are both queens of King Mian!"
This news dropped like a bombshell, and everyone was shocked!
"What?"
Hearing this, Qi Yi was stunned.
Yao He's face lit up and he laughed loudly and said: "Okay, this is irrefutable proof. Yu You and Yu Tongguang are indeed the same party. He hides it well!"
In an instant, Yao He looked at Zhang Yi and couldn't help but ask. "But have you found any concrete evidence?"
He is still a little worried!
Zhang Yi nodded and said, "We pried open the mouths of Yu You and several key figures in the Yu family and dug out this matter!"
"There are witnesses and physical evidence!"
A smile appeared in his eyes, which was an unexpected bonus.
Of course, this 'pry' was also unconventional, and some special means were used to dig it out.
"It would be great if we have ironclad evidence. Even if there is ironclad evidence, even if the imperial envoy arrives, we can still deliver it!"
Yao He had a smile on his face at this time.
From the original "incompetent" to "competent official", he has already calculated how to exert some strength in the court and transfer back to Haojing.
Qi Yi next to him also nodded secretly, but he was still surprised by this son-in-law's ability.
…
Gu family mansion
There were cries in the Gu family's mansion at this time, and a sad atmosphere filled the entire mansion.
In front of Gu Chengyan's hospital bed, there were many children of the Gu family who had returned in a hurry, and many elders were sighing.
They had received news not long ago that Gu Chengyan had his heart broken and was close to running out of gas.
Everyone in the Gu family was a little hesitant.
Originally, the Gu family's vitality was damaged due to the robbery of the tribute ship, and the family's children suffered a lot of losses. At this time, Gu Chengyan was seriously injured and was on the verge of death. It was true that misfortunes never come singly.
Everyone was talking a lot, but most of them were thinking about which branch the next head of the Gu family would be.
Only a few elders of the Gu family know that the Gu family has reached a turning point, and if they don't do well, they may fall.
At this time, in front of the hospital bed, under the witness of many clan elders, Gu Chengyan struggled to make a will. He passed the position of head of the family to his younger brother Gu Chengye, not his fifteen-year-old beloved son Gu Changsong.
This surprised many members of the Gu family, but it was also reasonable. It was a stormy time, and the person at the helm of the family was too young to help the family tide over the difficulties.
At this time, after the heir was decided, most of the Gu family children in the room immediately moved into the courtyard, leaving only Gu Chengye and Gu Xiu'er, who had suppressed his grief.
"Xiu'er, if your second uncle wants to secure his position as the head of the family, he still needs your full support!"
Gu Chengyan looked at the legitimate daughter in front of him, with a look of regret and regret in his eyes.
"Father……"
Gu Xiuer's eyes were red, and her beautiful face was full of reluctance. She held Gu Chengyan's hand tightly.
"In the future of Fengyang County, the eldest husband of the Zhang family will be the key. I know you are unwilling to do so, but no matter what, you must help the Gu family safeguard their foundation!"
"You also grew up in this mansion. Your father protected you when you were young. For this reason, your brother complained to me many times, saying that he loves you more than he loves you. Now my father is begging you. Protect this family and don’t let the Gu family break up!”
Gu Chengyan's face was as golden as paper, and his breath was dying at this moment, but his eyes refused to close, staring at Gu Xiu'er.
Gu Xiu'er burst into tears. She opened her mouth, but she saw Gu Chengye exclaimed "brother". Gu Chengyan stared at him and lost his life.
"God's Coming"
As soon as the voice came out, the whole Gu family burst into tears.
…
In the Zhang family, Zhang Jian soon received the news of the death of Gu Chengyan, the patriarch of the Gu family. He sighed slightly in his eyes and felt that things were unpredictable in his heart.
Gu Chengyan was once a man of influence inside and outside Fengyang County. His words and deeds made countless forces, big and small, concerned. Of course, the Zhang family was also afraid of him, but now he has suffered a loss at this time.
This is a turning point of an era.
From now on, the Gu family will surely decline.
Except for Gu Chengyan, there is no other worthy heir in this generation of the Gu family.
Most of them are just mediocre and difficult to turn the tide.
Zhang Jian quickly put his mind down. However, he had many mundane tasks at this time. Not only did he need to represent Zhang Yi, the patriarch, to appease the soldiers and cronies who died in the rebellion, but he also had to contact all parties. .
Zhang Jian did this with ease.
In addition, he has to meet Fengling to select the materials for refining his natal magic weapon.
