"His grandson, Yi Yuanmin, was tied up by Patriarch Qu, who threatened him to hand over the treasure map. Later, for some reason, Yi Yanshan did not hand over the treasure map, and suffered a stroke. ”

Lu Chen instantly understood that the treasure map was already in his hands, and Yi Yanshan naturally didn't have a treasure map to exchange for his grandson.

But Qu Huaiyun also knew about this matter, why did he do this?

What's the use of forcing Yi Yanshan? It's impossible for him to come up with a treasure map! Lu Chen only felt that his brain was a little insufficient.

"Got it!"

sent away his subordinates, and as soon as he changed his clothes, Gu Chengyu took Mingmo and them into the house in a hurry.

"Lord Lu, I'm afraid we won't be able to live tonight. The people in Qufu were arrested by Liao Cheng and sent to prison, so it's a little inappropriate for us to live in Qufu again. ”

As soon as Gu Chengyu entered the room, he ignored Lu Chen's suspicious gaze and said to himself.

"Mingmo, you go pack your luggage, let's leave Qufu overnight."

Gu Chengyu had a few verbal exchanges with Liao Cheng just now, since Qufu was going to be searched, it would be inconvenient for them to live in Qufu.

"But Qu Huaiyun was arrested by Liao Cheng? When I was going out, I heard some movement. ”

Lu Chen didn't say much, his gaze at Gu Chengyu was still full of suspicion.

His gaze searched around Gu Chengyu's waist, then looked at Gu Chengyu's slender hands and frowned.

Although he felt that Gu Chengyu was very suspicious, Gu Chengyu's appearance really did not look like a person with strong martial arts.

Gu Chengyu won the champion at the age of fourteen, and it can be said that the previous time was spent on the imperial examination, where did he get the time to practice martial arts?

Even if Gu Chengyu is a prodigy, Gu Chengyu not only spends a lot of time on the books of the imperial examination, but also covers a wide range of miscellaneous books.

Not to mention the attainments in poetry, these will definitely not be able to achieve the current point without spending energy.

How can a person who is obsessed with imperial examinations and learning find time to practice martial arts?

The suspicion in Lu Chen's heart couldn't help but shake a little, and his expression softened a lot.

"Oh? What about treasure maps? When I went there just now, Lord Liao said that the treasure map was snatched by someone, is this person you? ”

Gu Chengyu felt that Lu Chen should have doubted himself, and Gu Chengyu changed the topic without a trace.

"If only I could, it would be really disadvantageous to come to Hejian Mansion this time! Once again, I missed the treasure map, so I can see what kind of talented people are involved this time. However, if the emperor blames him, we really can't afford it! ”

Lu Chen paid close attention to Gu Chengyu's expression, and when he saw that Gu Chengyu's face immediately sank, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he was a little relieved.

Gu Chengyu's tone was a little heavy, "This time you are mainly assisting me, the errand assigned by the emperor has not been completed, the main responsibility lies with me, and it has nothing to do with you, what are you worried about?" ”

"I went back to the emperor before this incident, I may not be able to do it, but the emperor has to catch the ducks on the shelves. Besides, the emperor sent you to come to Hejian Mansion with me, or did you come secretly. If you want silver, you don't have silver, and if you want people and no people, that's it. When I came to Hejian Mansion, who knew that those people had already learned the news, and the so-called secret was no longer a secret. ”

"If you are honest, you will pretend to be deaf and dumb, and you will still think about calculating me if you are not responsible and cunning. This errand is not a good errand in the first place, so let's tell the truth when we go back to our lives! I hope the emperor won't be angry, otherwise I'm afraid my black gauze hat will not be protected! ”

Gu Chengyu sighed slightly, and then took out a gold medal from his arms.

"The emperor's gold medal from the emperor didn't come in handy, it's really embarrassing!"

Gu Chengyu looked at the gold medal shining in the candlelight, his eyes were blank, and he seemed to be hit hard.

Lu Chen somewhat understood Gu Chengyu's pain at this time, the emperor sent him, but he and Gu Chengyu were not of the same mind.

Only Ming Mo and Ming Yan have some skills around Gu Chengyu, but what can only the two of them do?

Ma Zhihong, the master of the Qincha on the bright face, didn't even touch Gu Chengyu, and went straight back to the capital.

Could it be that Gu Chengyu should directly take the gold medal and go to those family mansions to ask for treasure maps? But will people ignore him?

Isn't it respectful on the surface, but disobedient behind the scenes?

The families of Hejian Mansion are all very shrewd, and no one takes Gu Chengyu in their eyes, so no one wants to kill Gu Chengyu's life.

Therefore, this royal gold medal is purely chicken ribs, and chicken ribs should not be wanted.

He was very envious at first, but now that he thinks about it, his heart is instantly balanced.

Gu Chengyu didn't know what Lu Chen was thinking, he was thinking that he had martial arts, so he didn't need to find those local officials to be allies.

Besides, the officialdom of Hejian Province is also complicated, who knows whose faction those officials are?

This case is different, and the people involved are not only those families, but also those important ministers and princes who are in the capital.

He was very glad that this time he made a fortune in silence.

It's just that when he returns to the capital, he still has to think about it again. When the time comes, the treasure map will be presented, won't Lu Chen have insight into his conspiracy?

So he still has to find a top pot, after all, concealing his martial arts skills can sometimes have unexpected effects.

"Master Gu! Are you packing up? ”

Suddenly, there was a question outside the door. Gu Chengyu naturally recognized the owner of this voice, which was Liao Cheng.

"Lord Liao! Since such a change has happened in Qufu, the official feels that living in Qufu any longer will be causing trouble to Lord Liao. The official rented a small courtyard not far from here, and before returning to the capital, he was still going to settle there temporarily. ”

When Gu Chengyu entered the Qu Mansion, he didn't bring much with him.

Just one or two changes of clothes and hair crowns, plus other washing things, etc., add up to just a small burden.

Mingmo: They cleaned up quickly, and they had already cleaned up now.

"Lord Gu, although this official knows that you are a minister specially sent by the emperor. But this time something happened to the Qu family, and it just so happened that you also lived in the Qu Mansion, so I'm afraid you have to ask Lord Gu to cooperate and wash away your suspicion! ”

Liao Cheng just learned that the master sent by his master did not catch the man in black who was holding a soft sword, and his heart was irritable.

Then he asked the official who was guarding outside, and said that he hadn't found anyone leaving the house at all, so he naturally suspected Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu was not usual at that time, and he came after the treasure map was robbed, so Gu Chengyu was indeed suspicious.

"Oh? What does Lord Liao mean that this official is in cahoots with Qu Huaiyun and does that thing that harms the people? ”

Gu Chengyu was extremely angry, he didn't expect Liao Cheng to hit himself with his idea, this Liao Cheng was bold enough.

"This?" Liao Cheng seemed to be a little embarrassed, and his eyes rolled slightly.
