Chapter 2491 Destroying the River Bridge(2/2)
No matter how careless he was, he noticed something was wrong at this moment. The kitchen steward's face turned pale, and he quickly asked someone to watch the scene, then crawled to find the superior steward, and then hurriedly reported to the inner courtyard.
Not long after, the steward of the inner courtyard came out. He just held up a torch and took a closer look. His face changed drastically and his voice trembled a little. "Here comes someone! Quick, go and notify the head of the family!"
"Steward! The gate of the workshop is closed! You can't get out!"
"Go and ask the mistress to sign a note! The head of the house must be notified! Don't go through the main gate! Climb over the wall and get out!"
While everything was going on at Gu's house, Gu Yong was working overtime in the official mansion.
Working overtime is not an unacceptable bad thing for these people. After all, these people are paid very high wages, far beyond ordinary people, not to mention they don’t work overtime very often. If they do it occasionally, they can not only show their diligence, but also work overtime.
You can increase your reputation, why not do it?
But there was something unusual today. Gu Yong felt that there were a lot of things going on, and they were all relatively trivial things...
Until Gu Yong saw the servant who came in a hurry.
Gu Yong subconsciously stood up, and before walking out, he paused, then sat down again, and whispered: "Don't look at it, those gold and silver utensils must be arrogant...
With those armored crossbows...this is a capital crime!』
Gu's servant trembled.
Usualizing a vessel is serious even if it is said to be serious, but it is not serious even if it is said not to be serious. Just like a corrupt official, if he does not show his appearance, he can hide it for a period of time. If it is exposed, it will naturally lead to trouble.
As for the armored crossbow machine, let alone it.
"Here comes someone!" Gu Yong said in a deep voice, "I would like to see my lord!"
A follower outside the hall responded and immediately left.
"Master..." Gu's trusted servant who came to report the news asked, "What should we do with those gold and silver vessels, armored crossbows?"

"Do it?!"
Gu Yong sneered, "There are always ways to escape and catch thieves..."
After a while, the attendant who had gone to see him came back and said, "To inform the master of the family, it is already getting late. We will discuss something tomorrow."
"Hmph." Gu Yong stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked out proudly, heading towards Sun Quan's mansion.
When they arrived at the gate of Sun Quan's government office, Sun's guards came forward to stop him.
Gu Yong didn't waste any time and shouted loudly at the door of the mansion: "Someone has military talent!"
"Military information?" Sun's guard was stunned, and then looked at Gu Yong with some suspicion, "Gu Gong, lying about military information is a serious crime!"
Gu Yong sneered and said, "What crime is not serious? Is it considered a serious crime to be ignorant of the military situation?"
"..." Sun's guard was silent for a moment, "Waiting!" After saying that, he left Gu Yong and turned around to report.
After all, not everyone can resist the word "military intelligence".
After a while, Sun's guard came out again and nodded towards Gu Yong, "My lord, you are invited!"
Gu Yong stepped forward, walked around the screen wall, passed through the corridor, and arrived in front of the main hall, "My lord, pay homage to the lord!"
Sun Quan looked at Gu Yong expressionlessly, remained silent for a moment, "Come in, sit down."
After Gu Yong sat down, Sun Quan asked, "What's the military situation?"
Sun Quan planned that if Gu Yong made some excuses or apologized, he would immediately get angry and charge Gu Yong with lying about military intelligence. He would first take Gu Yong and put him in prison to suffer for two days, but he didn't expect that Gu Yong would suffer.
He said calmly: "Lord, I do have military intelligence!"
"Oh?" Sun Quan moved his eyebrows in surprise, "Say."
"There are spies from Jiangbei mixed in Wu County!" Gu Yong said categorically, as if he had really received relevant information.
"A spy from Jiangbei?" Sun Quan was like Nanbangzi in later generations when he heard the news from Beibangzi. He suddenly felt uncomfortable all over his body, "Is this true?"
Gu Yong nodded and said, "That's true."
"..." Sun Quan pondered for a moment and was about to say something when he saw guards hurriedly coming from the hall.
"I would like to report to my lord and ask for an audience regarding school affairs."
Sun Quan immediately turned his eyes, glanced at Gu Yong, and suddenly understood, but now it was too late to regret, so he could only say in a dull voice: "Call!"
After finishing speaking, Sun Quan was no longer anxious to ask Gu Yong what kind of "military intelligence" he was. He just closed his eyes and folded his hands on his chest, like a statue, motionless in the wind.
The sound of footsteps was heard, and then Jie Yan came to the hall to greet her by roll call.
The scene became a little awkward for a while.
Ji Yan didn't expect that he was already fast, and then she discovered that Gu Yong was even faster than him!
"What's the matter?" Sun Quan asked with his eyes closed without opening them.
"Chen..." Ji Yan gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, "I heard that there was a thief who wanted to cause chaos in Wu County, so I followed him in the square, but when he arrived at Jiade Square, he disappeared..."
Ji Yan couldn't help but glance at Gu Yong, but she saw that Gu Yong was still stroking his beard on one side, as if what Ji Yan said had nothing to do with him.
Ji Yan lowered her head, "After a lot of inspections...we found traces of the thief outside Gu Shijun's residence, and then wanted to go inside to search, but the Gu family's servants refused to obey..."
"Heh..." Gu Yong smiled and said, "I guess school officials came to my house and confiscated a lot of prohibited and trespassing items?"
Ji Yan raised her head and stared at Gu Yong, "Gu Shijun...knows about this?"
Impossible. They were all staring at the square gate and no one came out. Moreover, he and Xu Biao acted almost immediately without any delay. How could Gu Yong know about it?
Sun Quan took a breath and said, "Tell me what's going on. Yuan Tan, you tell me first."
In fact, at this moment, Sun Quan still favored Ji Yan. After all, with Gu Yong's intelligence, if Ji Yan explained the specific situation first, Gu Yong might have already had a countermeasure before he finished speaking, so Sun Quan simply let Gu Yong say it first.
.
"Your Majesty..." Gu Yong said calmly, "This is exactly what I said before. There are spies in the north of the Yangtze River who are resentful because of Qingxu's defeat, so they sent people to sneak into the east of the Yangtze River.
To stir up trouble... I never thought that it would be this shallow method to frame the minister, which is simply ridiculous. Doesn't it mean that he bullies the lord like a child, who doesn't know the art of war and doesn't understand the strategy?"
"Since it is a trespassing and forbidden thing, it must be hidden in a hidden place and not easily exposed to the outside," Gu Yong said, "Now that the school official entered the minister's house, he looked for it directly... which shows that it is something."
It’s not my subordinate’s, it’s the work of spies from Jiangbei..."
"Hmph." Sun Quan was noncommittal, "It's about school affairs, you say."
Jieyan's eyes rolled, "How can Gu Shijun be sure that it was the Jiangbei spies who did it?"
"Oh? How can we determine that the school affairs are not the work of Jiangbei spies?" Gu Yong almost said the same words, half-smiling but not smiling.
"Check!" Ji Yan gritted her teeth and said, "If they are spies, investigate them thoroughly! How could these spies enter Jiangdong, and how could they enter Wu County?! How did the surrounding checkpoints and officials along the way take precautions! My lord! I beg you to
This matter is not a difference between people. How can we distinguish between good and bad? Distinguish the bad and eliminate the evil!"
"Besides..." Ji Yan glanced at Gu Yong, "Since traces of the thief were found in the Gu family's house... To avoid suspicion, haha, I am not saying that Gu Shijun must be guilty, but just to avoid suspicion, please Gu Shijun do not
To interfere with the verification..."
"You!" Gu Yong frowned.
Sun Quan glanced at Jian Yan with some relief, then slapped his hand on the table, "Shan! That's it! Zixiu obeys the order!"
"I'm here!"
