Gu Chun, Gu Qian and others on the side listened to the conversation between the two. In addition to being shocked, they also had a better understanding of the matter. Li Hui had taken the initiative from the beginning, and everything Han Yong did was
He saw an opportunity. Even Han Yong himself admitted that he had failed.
Gu Qian only knew beforehand that Li Hui was going to take advantage of the autumn harvest to take advantage of the stolen goods, but he did not expect that there would be such a wonderful game in the process.
"Han Yong, in this case, it is indeed you who did this. You have fully admitted it, right?" Gu Chun shouted coldly.
Han Yong sighed and kowtowed: "Master, please spare my life, this old slave was confused for a moment."
Gu Chun sighed and said in a low voice: "Why are you doing this? My Gu family treats you well, how dare you act so boldly?"
Han Yong begged loudly: "The old slave knows that he is wrong. The old slave is obsessed with things. The master of the house will give the old slave a chance. The old slave will definitely change his ways and be loyal from now on. For the sake of my sister, for the sake of the old slave."
For all the years of hard work, please give me a break."
Gu Chun said coldly: "Han Yong, I can spare you, but my Gu family's laws cannot tolerate you. If you are not severely punished, wouldn't it be possible for everyone to follow your example? Where is the majesty of our Gu family? Han Yong, it's only your fault that you are obsessed and a thief.
How audacious.”
When Han Yong heard Gu Chun say such words, his expression suddenly changed. His expression changed from sad to stern.
"The master of the house is so cruel. He is going to end my life, Han Yong." Han Yong sighed.
"You will not survive if you do something wrong." Gu Chun said coldly.
"Okay, very good. Young Master, what do you say? At this time, won't you beg for mercy for me?" Han Yong turned to look at Gu Chang, who was standing below, and sneered.
Gu Chang's face turned pale, his eyes wandered, and he murmured: "How...how can I plead for you? I...I can't help you..."
Han Yong burst into laughter and gritted his teeth and said: "Very good. Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. If you are unwilling to intercede for me, then don't blame me for telling all the things."
Gu Chang trembled and shouted: "Han Yong, if you dare to talk nonsense, you... you are seeking death. Don't talk nonsense."
Han Yong sneered and said: "I can't control that much. I'm going to die anyway, so let's just finish it together."
Gu Chun was filled with doubts as he listened to the conversation between the two.
Gu Qian shouted from the side in a deep voice: "Everyone who has nothing to do with it should leave the Mingjie Hall as soon as possible. I have important matters to discuss with the head of the family."
After hearing this, all the servants and unrelated tribesmen withdrew one after another. Li Hui wanted to leave, but Gu Qian gestured to stay. Soon only Gu Chun, Gu Qian, Gu Chang, and Li Hui were left lying on the ground in the Mingjie Hall.
Ma Ming and others had their hands and feet tied.
Gu Qian looked at Han Yong and said in a deep voice: "Han Yong, listening to your words, could it be that you are hiding something? Could it be that you were instigated by someone else? Tell me, who was instigating you?"
Han Yong sneered repeatedly and did not answer.
Gu Chun frowned and said, "Qianzhi, what do you mean by this?"
Han Yong sneered and said: "Master, why bother pretending to be confused? A wise man doesn't tell secrets. Dong Weng has a clear mind. Knowing this, I, Han Yong, would not dare to do such a thing. Naturally, someone has instigated it."
Gu Chun frowned and thought. Han Yong glanced at Gu Chang, who was pale, and then at Gu Chun. He cupped his hands and said, "Master, Han Yong just wants to survive. What does the master say? Can you promise to spare my life?"
Han Yong gritted his teeth and would not reveal a single word. Otherwise, I would tell some hidden secrets about your Gu family. I guarantee it would surprise you."
Gu Qian shouted coldly: "Han Yong, who will negotiate terms with you? No one can spare you. You are not honest when death is imminent. It is better to recruit him truthfully and avoid the pain of flesh and blood."
Han Yong ignored Gu Qian at all, only looked at Gu Chun and said: "Master, you only need to say one word to spare my life. If I reveal the person behind it, it will have a great impact on the family. You will not
Want to know the truth. You see, Dong Ondo is anxious to know. Because he understands that once I reveal the person who instigated me behind the scenes, he can convene a family meeting with great fanfare and take back the position of the head of the family. This is a deal.
It's very simple, the head of the family let Han Yong go, and Han Yong swallowed the secret."
Gu Chun's face was gloomy. Of course he knew that things were no longer simple. Someone behind Han Yong must have instructed him to do this, and I'm afraid it was Gu Chang, the bastard. Gu Qian was eager to ask who was behind the scenes, and he must have a plan. The master's family was involved.
How can a self-stealing person convince the public if he does such a bad thing? Gu Qian is afraid that he will turn his back on the guests. He wants to keep the position of the head of the family, let alone in his own lineage. He is afraid that he will also lose his position as the head of the family.
.
However, what Han Yong, an evil slave, has done is already known to everyone, how can he forgive him? Doesn't that mean to tell everyone that he, the head of the family, is unfair and can even forgive people like Han Yong? Gu Qian won't
Even if he agreed, no one in the Gu family would agree. That would have a greater impact, and it would be as bad as the negative impact caused by Han Yong confessing to someone.
For a moment, Gu Chun didn't know how to make a choice. He was in a dilemma, and he wanted to find a solution that had both sides.
Of course, Gu Qian would not give him time to think about it, and said in a deep voice: "Master, you will never forgive Han Yong. Qianzhi will never allow this. If such an evil slave appears in my Gu family, he should be severely punished to serve as a warning to others.
If the head of the family spares this person, Qianzhi will immediately hold a family meeting to hold accountable those who violate the ancestral precepts and family rules of the Gu family. No matter who he is or what his status is in the Gu family. Qianzhi will do what he says. Qianzhi will do what he says.
How can I, the Gu family, be allowed to be controlled by the younger generation? For the sake of the respect and family rules of my Gu family, I cannot show favoritism even if it involves my direct descendants. Even if the person behind the scenes is my own son Gu Qian, Gu Xun, I will not
Severe punishment will not be tolerated."
Gu Chun breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "Qianzhi, where did you think you were going? How could I let him go? This slave obviously wants to frame others, and his words are not trustworthy at all. Qianzhi, you don't have to be too cautious."
If you are too sensitive, don't believe his nonsense."
Han Yong heard this clearly and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, okay. Such a vicious head of the family, now he wants to accuse me of falsely accusing others. Then don't blame me."
Han Yong suddenly shouted at the top of his voice: "Everyone, listen up. The reason why I, Han Yong, stole and sold grain was because I was ordered by the eldest son Gu Chang. The eldest son went out to eat, drink, whore and gamble, was extravagant, and owed a lot of debt.
. He forced me to steal food from home and sell it for money. I was forced by him. Up to now, he still owes Zhang Cheng, the eldest son of the Zhang family in Wu County, one million yuan, which must be repaid before September. Because
The amount was huge, so he forced me to get money for him. I had no choice but to find a way to get a big sum for him to pay off his debts and spend extravagantly in the future. If you insist on stealing from yourself, it is the good husband of your Gu family who did it.
Hahaha, if this matter spreads out, will you Gu family still be embarrassed? Hahaha."
Han Yong moved his lips, laughed and shouted loudly, so loud that he could even hear it outside the yard.
Gu Chang's face turned pale and he shouted loudly: "Shut up, shut up, you slave dog. Shut up!"
Not only did Han Yong not hold his tongue, he even shouted louder.
"Also, the eldest son has discussed with me that this big deal is just to bring bad luck to the South House. He takes this opportunity to seize the power of the South House. He told me that the head of the family and the young head of the house will share the power of the south house.
I have been dissatisfied for a long time. This fire and loss of food are just a good way to hold people accountable, so... hahaha, this is a plan to kill two birds with one stone."
Gu Chun's face was ashen, his eyes were extremely sharp, the skin on his thin face was trembling, and he was extremely angry.
"What did you say?" Gu Chun shouted solemnly: "You are making false accusations, and you are actually accusing me. You are an evil slave, how can I tolerate you? You are bringing the blame on yourself."
As he spoke, Gu Chun stepped forward, suddenly raised his crutch, struck Han Yong on the head, and struck it down.
Gu Chun was weak and had to rely on crutches to walk. Although his crutches were made of wood, the bottom of the crutches had iron feet made of fine iron to ensure stability and prevent slipping, just like horseshoes nailed to a horse's feet. So, this
As soon as the crutch hit him, it was like a small hammer hitting Han Yong's head.
Han Yong expected that Gu Chun, a half-dead man, would suddenly take action. He couldn't avoid it and was hit hard on his temple. After just one blow, Han Yong fell to the ground with his head in his arms, and blood gurgled out of his temple.
Gu Chun didn't stop, he raised his crutch and hit Han Yong on the head again and again. It seemed that he couldn't even stand steady, but this time he hit Han Yong hard and accurately, hitting the vital part of Han Yong's temple.
While hitting, he made a muffled sound from his throat, his eyes widened, and his face was full of ferocity and cruelty.
"Puff puff!" The sound of the skull breaking was horrifying, blood, flesh and brains were splattered, and the scene was too horrific to watch.
Han Yong screamed loudly and tried to get up to escape. But he was knocked dizzy from the first blow, and then he quickly fell into a coma until his brain burst. Under Gu Chun's blow, his body convulsed and trembled.
, his hands and feet were shaking and twitching, and he soon died of breathlessness.
Gu Chang looked at the scene in front of him in horror, and was so frightened that he could not speak.
Ma Ming was lying on the ground, and Han Yong fell in front of him. His face was covered with blood and brain matter. This usually unscrupulous guy was so heartbroken that he tilted his head in fear and passed out on the spot.
Li Hui had never seen such a scene of murder, and he was frightened. Especially when he saw the head of the family, Gu Chun, killing people himself, he felt chilled in his heart. These well-dressed people from aristocratic families did not show mercy when they killed people.
, like a butcher.
Gu Qian looked at all this with a gloomy expression, and the muscles on his face were shaking unconsciously.
"Master, stop, he is already dead." Gu Qian said in a deep voice.
Gu Chun was panting and stopped, hitting the ground with his crutches, and his body was shaky. Gu Chang reacted and hurriedly stepped forward to help Gu Chun.
Gu Chun murmured: "You bitch, you deserve to die, you deserve to die."
Gu Qian said in a deep voice: "Master, Han Yong certainly deserved his death, but... you just killed him like this?"
Gu Chun said coldly: "What? What do you want to say?"
Gu Qian said in a deep voice: "Han Yong is not a servant of my Gu family. He has a wife and children, and his sister is the concubine of the young master. How will this matter end? Besides, doesn't the master need to follow the words he said?
Shall I explain?"
Gu Chun said coldly: "How do you want me to explain to you? Do you want to publicize it? Let everyone know what happened to my Gu family? Or do you want to report me to the prefect's Yamen and have someone come and take away the Gu family?
Is the head of the family going to jail? Just tell me, I will let you do whatever you want."
Gu Qian frowned and pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Qianzhi invites the master of the family to go to the inner hall to talk."
Gu Chun snorted coldly and slowly turned around and walked towards the inner hall. Gu Qian glanced at Li Hui and said solemnly: "No one is allowed in until I and the head of the family come out. Guard the door."
Li Hui bowed and agreed, and Gu Qian turned around and followed Gu Chun to the inner hall.
