Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 414 Let’s go to Shuangxi Village! (first update)
Back home, Xu Da, Gu You, Yu Shian and Gu Shiming were all in Wu Chen's house.

Gu Shiming really asked Gu You to tie him up. He was afraid that the officials would call him to confront him, so he specifically asked Gu You to tie him up tighter. He only loosened the ties when Wu Chen came back. There were dark marks on his arms and legs.

Wu Chen first told Gu Shiming to give instructions. Gu Shiming saw that Wu Chen kept talking and did not mention anything that would be detrimental to his work. He couldn't help interrupting Wu Chen and asked: "The official didn't say that I would be allowed to enter the palace? Are you not annoyed that I can't do it?" Take Gu Zuo away?"

Wu Chen smiled and said: "I have been talking to the official family for so long, and I have not mentioned a word about what you did."

Gu Shiming asked disappointedly: "Then, my previous sins were in vain?"

Gu You snorted and said, "Wu Chen has told you a long time ago. If you tell him in advance, he will help you carry it. You want to be the wallflower. You don't want to offend both parties, so naturally you have to suffer." of."

Wu Chen looked at Yu Shi'an and said, "The officials and I have made it clear that your family does not have to leave Kyoto. To lead the troops this time... I have considered it again and again. In order to prevent internal strife, it is better for you to lead the troops."

Yu Shian was so excited that he asked in disbelief: "You mean, the officials will no longer care about my previous guilt?"

Wu Chen nodded and said: "This time it can be regarded as a meritorious service. It is impossible to be promoted in the future, but at least I don't have to hide around XZ anymore."

Yu Shian breathed a long sigh of relief.

Gu Shiming hurriedly asked: "What about the house..."

"You continue to look for it. I've finished telling the officials how much money is needed. Just ask the officials. As I said, don't let the prince interfere. If the officials ask the prince to do it, you must obey it, but don't be too smart to give in. The prince recommends himself, do you understand?"

Gu Shiming replied impatiently: "I understand."

"You know what the hell! Tell your father what I said. If the prince wants to succeed to the throne one day, he must be patient! He is jumping up and down at such a young age. As an official, I will definitely not keep him!"

Gu Shiming shrank his neck and said no more.

Xu Da asked anxiously: "Can I follow? The sophomore family is taken care of by Gu Shiming, and even my family is taken care of by Gu Shiming. I have nothing to worry about."

Wu Chen scratched his forehead and was just thinking about how to persuade. Xu Da already saw what Wu Chen meant and said hurriedly:
"If you didn't take me with you, I would have followed by myself! The second year of high school didn't have the chance to leave any last words. If he could, he would definitely ask me to protect you. I know I can't protect you, but there are some small things I always do. Can you do it?”

As soon as Xu Dazhi finished speaking, the door was knocked open, and the eldest, second, fourth and fifth fell in from the door.

Naturally, Wu Chen had heard that they were outside a long time ago. He originally planned to take them with him, so he ignored them. Now seeing several people falling to the ground with very embarrassed expressions, Wu Chen could only sigh and said: "Go quickly." Pack everything up and let's set off before closing the city gate."

Several people stood up quickly and ran out of the room excitedly.

Xu Da wanted to say more, Wu Chen patted Xu Da on the shoulder and said, "Go back and tell your family, come back as soon as possible, and when Xing Yun arrives, we will set off."

Xu Da immediately stood up and ran out of the room without saying anything.

Yu Shian also stood up and said: "I'll go back and make arrangements. Since they don't have to leave, it will be easy to handle."

Wu Chen nodded.

Gu You hesitated for a moment, opened his mouth and then closed it.

Wu Chen looked at Gu Shiming and said, "Arrange some people to come and take care of Gu Zuo."

Gu Shiming said 'oh'.

Only then did Gu You feel relieved.Gu Shiming asked again: "Are you sure you don't want to take me with you?"

"What are we taking you for? To add to the number of casualties? Does your family need your pension money to survive?"

"You, why do you speak so unpleasantly!"

Gu You hurriedly said: "He doesn't even want to take Xu Da, so you still want to follow him? My kung fu is better than Xu Da's, and Xing Yun is better than me. Yu Shi'an has an army, and even the boss's kung fu is similar to Xu Da's. , what do you mean if you follow me?"

"Where is the big head? You didn't say how to take care of him. You must take him with you. If you can take the big head, why can't you take me?" Gu Shiming asked persistently.

Wu Chen snorted and asked, "Want to take credit for your promotion in the future?"

Gu Shiming nodded sincerely.

"What's the use of letting you enjoy the Ancestral Temple when you're dead? The danger this time is worse than before. Brother Big Tou has to be taken with him. The boss and the others are also used to take care of Brother Big Tou. If you follow, are you going to kill those maids in your house? You have all the boys and girls with you, and you have to bring more than ten or twenty guards. You are going sightseeing, and I can’t take you with you."

Gu Shiming asked in confusion: "If it is so dangerous, why are they all vying to go?"

Wu Chen looked at Gu You,

Gu You straightened his waist and said, "I don't know about others. Wu Chen has been kind to me, and I must repay the kindness. If my benefactor is in danger and I don't have time to help him, I will only die of guilt for the rest of my life."

Gu Shiming thought for a while and said:

"I guess Xu Da thinks the same way. Forget it, you are far from being kind to me. I'll just wait for you to come back in Kyoto. Don't worry, it doesn't matter if it's a family or just one person. And In the temple, oh, there is also a foolish person who went back to visit his family, I have taken care of it for you and made sure that you are all alive and kicking when you come back."

Wu Chen smiled and cupped his fists towards Gu Shiming and said:
"Don't worry about the other house outside the city. You buy the eldest and second brother's house first and let them move there. Since Yu Shi'an's family doesn't have to leave, you should also provide some snacks to his house."

Gu Shiming snorted and stood up and said:

"Do you think all those officials in Kyoto are stupid? If Yu Shian can lead the army again, regardless of whether he can be reinstated in the future, there will only be people who try their best to curry favor, so there is nothing I need to do."

"Just help me keep an eye on it."

"understood!"

After that, Gu Shiming waved his hand and walked out of the house. He just closed the door and pushed it open again. With his head exposed, he said, "You have to come back alive!" Then he looked at Gu You and said, "You all come back alive!"

……

The sunset in winter is bright and warm. It has no dazzling light and gently sheds the red glow with its afterglow.

A group of people left the city outside the west city gate.

Wu Chen was riding on the horse, his eyes were filled with the gentleness of the setting sun. Even if the cold wind blew, Wu Chen still felt warm in his heart.

Ever since he knew there was Shuangxi Village, Wu Chen had been thinking about who to take with him and who not to take. Now he saw that except Song Gu, all of them were in decline. If he was still in the second year of high school, he would definitely be noisy at this time.

Wu Chen looked back and saw two carriages, one with the big head sitting on it, and the other with the things needed on the way. The boss, the second, the fourth and the fifth were holding carriages respectively, and the others were riding on the horses and walking in the carriage. On both sides, everyone straightened their waists in the cold wind, their eyes bright and clear.
