Chapter 41 041. Revealed
"My son dare not forget," Gu Kaiyuan said calmly, "but I have been away from home these days and heard some rumors."

Xu Huizhen became interested. "Are there any interesting rumors in the capital recently?"

"I heard that there was a minister in the court who was upright and honest, honest and upright, and he was very law-abiding. He was also very disciplined with his family and children, and he had an excellent reputation.

But he hid it from his wife and built a new house outside the palace. I heard that the new house is extremely luxurious and he also took in beautiful women..."

Xu Huizhen's face turned ugly when she heard this. She didn't involve herself in the incident, but instead felt sorry for the wife who had shared his hardships with him. "This gentleman is really going too far. Is he worthy of the wife who has sacrificed so much for him?

I don't know which gentleman you're talking about, but I'll have to have a serious talk with your father later. People like him are unbearable to be around."

Gu Kaiyuan, "My son doesn't know which adult he is, it's just a coincidence that he has the same surname as us, Gu.

My son doesn't know which officials in the government have such a good connection with us, so I need my elder brother to find out."

"Gu," Xu Huizhen looked at Gu Kaiyuan. He had brought this up to her for no reason today. Could he be referring to...

Thinking that Gu Baijiang was often not at home, his face turned grim, "Do you know where that yard is?"

"I heard about it," Gu Kaiyuan said, revealing the place. "Before, my friends even ridiculed me, but I always fought back. My father is an upright person. How could he do such a mean thing?"

After getting the answer she wanted, Xu Huizhen waved her hand and let Gu Kaiyuan go.

Gu Kaiyuan no longer cared about this behavior of being summoned at will and dismissed at will. He bowed and turned away.

Since there are only two days of good days left, let's make the Gu Mansion lively.

His good elder brother actually knew about the existence of the new Gu Mansion, but he never thought of reminding his mother, which shows his character.

The more Xu Huizhen thought about it, the more she felt that there was something wrong with what the third brother had just said. She called Aunt Xu over and explained things to her. After everyone left, she sat restlessly in the mansion.

Gu Baijiang always used important matters as an excuse to not go home, and even if he came back, he would stay in the study.

Come to think of it, how long has it been since he last entered his own yard?
I used to think that for an old couple, who were both grandparents, it didn’t matter whether they lived together or not, but now I think there was something fishy going on.

She wanted to ask Gu Kaiping, but finally gave up.

She knew in her heart that Gu Kaiping was the one who looked most like Gu Baijiang. Even if she knew, she would probably hide it for him.

But she never imagined that her eldest son, whom everyone had always expected, had already betrayed her.

With the exact address, Nanny Zhou brought back the information she had found out in less than an hour.

The Xin Gu Mansion was robbed a few days ago. Although it was not exposed, the surrounding neighbors heard about it.

This topic is still going on. Nanny Zhou walked around the street and soon got the information she wanted.

The official from the Ministry of War, whose surname is Gu, what doesn’t he know?

Gu Kaiyuan, however, kept his merits and fame to himself and quietly gave a push in secret. After all, Gu Baijiang deliberately concealed it and did not wear official uniform when going in and out, so who knew who lived there.

When Xu Huizhen heard the news, she felt like the sky had fallen. There were many court officials with the surname Gu, but only Gu Baijiang in the Ministry of War had the surname Gu.

"I want to go and see for myself," Xu Huizhen held her breath in her heart. If she didn't go and find out the truth today, she would not be able to sleep or eat.

Nanny Zhou also agreed, "I heard that the new Gu Mansion is extremely luxurious, and the hostess there wears different clothes and jewelry every day."

Xu Huizhen was already panting. "Bring someone with you, and let's go take a look."

"Why don't we ask the master if he might have made a mistake?" Nanny Zhou was a little timid at the moment. It was true that she was the old lady's person, but the master was the one who had the final say in this mansion.

“I just asked you to bring someone to accompany me for a walk outside. What if the new Gufu is our old relative?”

Xu Huizhen gritted her teeth and pointed at the girl beside her and said, "You, go and call the Third Young Master to me."

Gu Kaiyuan, however, had anticipated this and left the house early. Anyway, according to the schedule, the house would be raided tomorrow, so making a scene today wouldn't be a bad idea.

Not finding anyone, Xu Huizhen still called Xu Yulan to accompany her. In her heart, this daughter-in-law and niece was more reliable than Gu Kaiyuan.

Bai Suihe had already been instructed by Gu Kaiyuan to keep an eye on the news from the main courtyard. When he heard that the old lady had left the house with a large group of people, he suddenly felt a little upset.

"It's a pity that I can't see it live with my own eyes." Bai Suihe touched her belly and didn't really want to join in the fun. Someone would definitely come to broadcast the event later.

The looted Xin Gu Mansion was finally renovated yesterday after arrangements by several wealthy businessmen and overtime work.

Madam Li dressed up specially today to welcome her master.

"You guys, please clean the gate again. Also, are the lanterns under the Langfang ready?

The entire mansion must be brightly lit tonight and nothing can go wrong.

Is the kitchen ready? Let's prepare some delicious food."

Madam Li and a few maids stood in the courtyard, pointing and gesticulating, acting like the hostess of the house.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Mrs. Li's eyes lit up. It seemed that the master was also eager to see their new home.

Although she went back, she was anxious when she saw the empty mansion.

But I didn't expect the master to be so helpful. He repaired it in such a short time, and many of them were done according to his own wishes.

"The master is back," Mrs. Li went out to greet him in person, but her face froze immediately when she saw the aggressive group of people outside.

"Who are you? Who are you looking for?"

"Is this the courtyard of Master Gu Baijiang?" Xu Huizhen looked at the noble woman in front of her. Her gorgeous clothes and the jewelry on her head made her particularly jealous.

Especially that charming face, which made her want to destroy it.

"Are you here to see the master?" Madam Li raised her bare hand slightly, revealing her jingling jade bracelet, and fiddled with it. "The master is busy today, so please come back another day."

Today is their happy housewarming day. I don’t know where this person came from who is so short-sighted.

Mrs. Li turned around and prepared to go back because this wasn't the person she was waiting for. However, she felt a sharp pain on her head and a pulling force that made her fall to the ground.

Then, an ugly, fat body pressed down on her, and with a slapping sound, she felt a stinging pain on her cheek.

"What are you doing? Do you know who I am?

Are you all dead? Pull her away from me quickly."

Mrs. Li also lost her mind and yelled loudly without caring about her image at all.

Xu Huizhen was just burning with rage at this moment. When this bitch admitted to Gu Baijiang, she had already decided to die.

The people in the new Gu Mansion wanted to rescue their master, but were stopped by people brought by Nanny Zhou.

"Do you know who our old lady is?"

After these words were spoken, no one dared to move.

There are so many high-ranking officials in the capital, and there are too many people who cannot be offended.

Although they were servants bought by the Gu Mansion, they also cherished their lives.
