Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 969 Be Prepared
Lin Jinyan's calmness made Gu Ruizhou suppress his anger and sit down again.

"If I had told them earlier, let alone my cousin, my uncle and aunt would not even let me out of the house. It is precisely because I took the risk to lure people out and saw them acting that I would know now that there is someone hiding behind There are evil minds plotting against the general's mansion in the dark, so we can take action early."

Gu Ruizhou's heart was in a mess. He knew that Lin Jinyan was right, but he was annoyed that she had taken risks on her own initiative. He scolded her so that Lin Jinyan would not hide such things from him in the future.

After hearing Lin Jinyan's repeated assurances that she was the sister she had loved since childhood, Gu Ruizhou couldn't bear to be too harsh and glared and asked about other things:

"Assuming you can justify this matter, what about the guards you said died for you?"

Lin Jinyan smiled slyly: "My cousin already knows."

Gu Ruizhou felt his temples pounding:

"Stop smiling so playfully, you are getting bolder!"

When Gu Ruizhou interrogated the prisoner last night, he heard the prisoner's confession:
The guards brought by Lin Jinyan only injured about ten people, and no one died. Those corpses were actually all of their accomplices, and they did not die in the fight, but were killed by Du Xing.

At that time, Lin Jinyan was kidnapped. Wei Zhong took half of the guards to rescue her. They were trying to take advantage of the lack of people when the guards got into chaos and ran away.

However, Du Xing suddenly led the Lin Mansion guards, surrounded them, and started killing those who looked tough.

Although they didn't understand why they had to declare to the outside world that those people were Lin Mansion guards, they were frightened and didn't dare to say a word when they saw that Du Xing was still there.

After hearing this, Gu Ruizhou still felt that the prisoners were slandering him, and thinking about Lin Jinyan's move to send Zhang Qi away, he worriedly asked Zhang Qi to identify the body. Zhang Qi recognized them one by one and said that they were not the guards Lin Jinyan brought today!
Zhang Qi recalled carefully that Lin Jinyan went out of the city yesterday and went to Zhuangzi to add dozens of people. When he returned to the city, he was indeed short of half, and the number of people was just enough to match the corpses.

Gu Ruizhou couldn't help but be shocked. Since the ones who died were not the guards of the Lin Mansion, and the number of guards matched the number of corpses, it meant that Lin Jinyan used these corpses to hide the guards!

Gu Ruizhou had no idea why Lin Jinyan was acting like this, and he was so upset that he didn't sleep all night.

Lin Jinyan suppressed her smile:

"After what happened yesterday, I believe my cousin can understand that the city of Tai'an looks prosperous and peaceful, but in fact there is an undercurrent. I also went out of the city yesterday and saw several groups of bad guys, so I ordered Du Xing to get rid of some that I couldn't figure out. , fake death for the guard who is loyal to me.”

"Even if you want to cultivate power, what can only twenty or thirty guards do? Where did you hide them? If you are recognized by others, you will defeat yourself if you let the bad guys die for you, and it will also attract people who are training soldiers privately. Suspicion."

Lin Jinyan smiled enigmatically:
"How did my cousin know that they were the only ones?"

Gu Ruizhou exclaimed:
"More? Where did you get all these people?"

Lin Jinyan detailed the refugees she had rescued in Tai'an in the early years, as well as the victims she rescued from the flood last year when she came back from Cangsheng Mountain.

Speaking of the people she chose, most of them had no concerns, and no one in Tai'an city knew them. The most important thing was that these people were absolutely loyal to her.

Finally, Lin Jinyan told Gu Ruizhou where these people were hiding, with a solemn tone:
"These people, like the secret passage in the school, are the life-saving places prepared by Yan'er for the Gu family and the Lin family. Although I hope they won't be used, you can always feel more at ease if you are prepared."
