Chapter 491 Losing Money
Chapter 491 Losing Money
Yu Shui said as she quickly pulled him up from the ground.
The master has been waiting for news these two days, but until now there is no news about those two people.
They were almost dying of anxiety at home.
After Yu Shui helped Wen Shubai back, Wen Shubai suddenly said, "I want to go out."
They can't just sit at home and wait for death.
After hearing this, Yu Shui began to doubt his ears. He looked at the man with a big belly and asked, "Master, are you really going out?"
Wen Shubai covered his face and said in pain, "I seem to be hearing Xixi and Xiaonian crying in my ears all the time. If anything happens to them, it would be more painful than killing me."
Xixi is his flesh and blood, and although Xiaonian is not his biological child, she grew up by his side.
His care and love for Xiaonian is no less than that for Xixi.
"But Master, the Young Master and our General have already taken people out to look for him. It's not very convenient for you to move around right now. Otherwise, you should stay home and wait for the Young Master to come back."
Yu Shui was really worried about him going out.
What's more, the master is not alone now, he has a child.
Wen Shubai sighed deeply.
Seeing that he no longer mentioned going out, Yu Shui asked again: "Master, do you want to eat something? I will ask someone to prepare food for you."
"I can't eat now."
To be precise, he hasn't been able to eat anything since he learned that the two were missing.
Even drinking water makes me feel nauseous.
Yu Shui was a little embarrassed. He looked outside and said, "Why don't we go to the young master and wait? That way, we can be the first to know if there is any news."
"Okay, you come with me."
Yu Shui supported him, and the two of them walked towards where Gu Qingyuan lived.
After General Gu went out, he felt dazed and his body swayed.
She quickly regained her balance and rubbed her head.
Could it be that I am really getting old?
She had never had this feeling during previous training sessions, so why did she feel a little unwell today?
And just for a moment, she felt as if she had stepped on something empty and was about to fall, but now she feels much better.
As Xia Zhi was walking, he felt that General Gu had fallen behind by a few steps, and looked back worriedly.
She walked towards General Gu and asked, "General, what's wrong with you?"
General Gu waved his hand and said, "No problem, maybe I'm a little tired. Let's continue looking for someone."
Xia Zhi didn't think much about it and started looking for people with General Gu.
Soon, they saw Gu Qingyuan appear with his men.
At this time, there was a layer of sweat on her face, and Gu Qingyuan wiped the sweat off with her sleeve indifferently.
"How?" General Gu asked concisely.
"We found this outside the city before," Gu Qingyuan took out the rope, "Maybe they have already escaped."
General Gu's eyes fell on the rope in Gu Qingyuan's hand.
She first recalled her enemies in her mind.
She knew that she was straightforward and could not tolerate any injustice. In fact, there were many people in the court who were friendly with her on the surface, but in fact they were just wary of the military power in her hands.
Could it be that these two children were kidnapped by her enemies?
"Mom, what are you thinking about?"
Gu Qingyuan's voice brought her back to her senses. General Gu turned around and said, "I'll look somewhere else. Maybe I can find them."
Afterwards, Gu Qingyuan didn't expect that her mother's method would be...
Take people to someone else's house and kick the door open.
When the sturdy door slowly fell to the ground, Minister Ji watched General Gu and his men rush in.
General Gu walked in and said coldly, "Minister Ji, come out."
Minister Ji is Ji Mingzhao's mother. She is in charge of the Ministry of War and has always been at odds with General Gu.
"What are you doing here?"
Because of the previous incident with Prime Minister Yuan, Minister Ji had a lot of power taken back by the Empress, and even some of the power that originally belonged to her was given to General Gu by the Empress. Now she was so angry that she saw General Gu and his men breaking into her house and kicking the door in.
But no matter how angry she was, she knew that she couldn't afford to offend the Gu family now.
General Gu got straight to the point and asked, "Is the person here with you?"
Minister Ji was confused. "Who is it?"
She suddenly thought of marrying Ji Mingzhao to the Gu family. Could it be that the bastard had escaped from the Gu family?
General Gu said, "Don't play dumb. Why did you involve the child in our matter? I advise you to hand him over immediately."
Minister Ji immediately ordered, "Go check if that bastard has sneaked back."
"What bastard?"
General Gu thought she was scolding Xixi and Xiaonian, and immediately said to her, "I advise you to keep your mouth shut and take back that word."
Minister Ji was somewhat dissatisfied. What was wrong with her scolding his own son?
The servant went around asking around and came back to report, "Minister Ji, the Fourth Young Master hasn't returned yet."
General Gu frowned.
Is what she said the same thing as what Minister Ji said?
Minister Ji spread his hands and said, "If you're looking for someone, go look somewhere else. You just heard that Ji Mingzhao, that bastard, hasn't returned yet..."
Only then did General Gu realize that Minister Ji thought he was talking about Ji Mingzhao.
She replied, "Qing Yuan's concubine is naturally staying at home well. I came here today to ask you if you have anything to do with the disappearance of my two children!"
Ji Shangshu retorted, "What does your child's disappearance have to do with my family? Gu Ruotian, don't rely on your status to come to my house and cause trouble. And I saw that my front door was kicked in by you and your men. Pay for it!"
"Is it really not here with you?"
Minister Ji was so angry that his body was shaking. He raised three fingers to the sky and said, "If I really kidnapped your child, I will die a miserable death."
General Gu looked at her suspiciously, and then had his men search the Ji family's house again. After confirming that the two children were not there, he took his men to the next house.
Minister Ji shouted from behind: "Pay me money!"
General Gu took off his purse and threw it to Minister Ji.
She threw it just right, and the purse landed on Ji Shangshu's head. The huge impact made Ji Shangshu see stars and fall directly to the ground.
The people of the Ji family exclaimed: "Minister Ji, are you okay?"
However, the money General Gu left behind was enough for their family to replace two gates.
Minister Ji stood up, holding his head, and there was a red bump on his head.
Damn it, she knew that Gu Ruotian did it on purpose!
Then, General Gu went to the homes of several other families.
Some were too timid to dare to talk about General Gu behind his back. When they saw General Gu bringing his men over, they thought they had been discovered.
When he saw General Gu coming, he knelt on the ground.
"I will never dare to curse you behind your back again!"
