Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning, and Yu Huatian looked at each other and walked towards the Jiao Mansion. Behind them, a part of the three teams separated and surrounded the Jiao Mansion, and the remaining part was
Following the three of them, they entered the Jiao Mansion.
Zhu Pingping, the imperial guard who was pushed aside by these people, finally showed a look of astonishment on his face when he saw this scene.
Although they had some vague guesses when they saw Cao Shaoqin and the others, but think about Gu Dayong's identity. He was the most trusted and trusted person in the emperor's immediate past, the Chief Supervisor of Ceremonies.
Just now, they were still worried whether Gu Dayong would take revenge on them.
Seeing Cao Shaoqin and others, what they thought more about was that Cao Shaoqin and others came to Jiao Mansion this time to investigate the assassination of Jiao Fang. As for other aspects, to be honest, Zhu Ping and others really didn't know.
Dare to think.
But now seeing the postures of Dongchang, Xichang, and Jinyiwei, for some reason, Zhu Pingping felt a little strange in his heart.
In the Jiao Mansion
Gu Da proudly declared his power to Jiao Fang and his son, when a burst of rapid footsteps came.
Gu Dayong looked back and happened to see Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning, and Yuhuatian striding in.
When he saw Cao Shaoqin and others, Gu Dayong looked calm, but there was a bit of curiosity in his eyes.
It is not unusual for Cao Shaoqin and others to come to Jiao Fang's residence. Just as Zhu Ping and others thought, Gu Dayong thought Qian Ning and others came to investigate the assassination of Jiao Fang.
Gu Dayong was calm in his heart. He didn't believe that Qian Ning and the others could find out about him. Even if Dongchang, Xichang and Jinyiwei really found out any clues, would they still dare to investigate further?
After glancing at a few people lightly, Gu Dayong flicked his sleeves, glanced at Jiao Fang and his son and said, "Master Jiao, we are leaving now."
At this moment, Cao Shaoqin and others came over and saluted Gu Dayong: "I've seen the chief manager."
Qian Ning and Yu Huatian's eyes also fell on Gu Dayong.
Gu Dayong asked himself that as a general manager, he had a high status. Even when facing Qian Ning and others, he would look at a few people with an air of airs and a bit of condescension, nodded slightly and said: "I want to send someone to your Majesty."
Come and investigate the assassination of Mr. Jiao. Our family takes this case very seriously, and we hope that a few of you can investigate the case well and be sure to arrest and bring to justice the evil thief who dared to assassinate an important official of the imperial court."
Behind him, Jiao Wenbo looked a little excited when he heard Gu Dayong's face. He took a step forward and pointed at Gu Dayong and said: "Gu Dayong, it's you..."
A cold snort sounded like thunder in Jiao Wenbo's ears. Jiao Wenbo was just a weak scholar, how could he withstand Gu Dayong's secret power?
Jiao Wenbo instantly felt his head buzzing, as if his head had been hit hard, and he had forgotten everything he wanted to say.
Gu Da put one hand on Jiao Wenbo's shoulder and said with a smile on his face: "I don't know why Mr. Jiao called our family!"
Jiao Fang grabbed Jiao Wenbo, stared at Gu Dayong and said, "Gu Dayong, how dare you!"
She loved her son so much that Jiao Fang was staring at Gu Dayong. If Gu Dayong dared to harm his son again, he would risk his life to make Gu Dayong suffer.
Glancing at Jiao Fang with disdain, Gu Dayong turned around and was about to leave. At the same time, he did not forget to say to Cao Shaoqi and others: "You guys will investigate the case here, and our family will go first."
However, just when Gu Dayong was about to leave, he heard Cao Shaoqin speak first: "Manager Gu, please stay!"
At this moment, Cao Shaoqin was standing next to Jiao Fang, putting a hand on Jiao Wenbo's shoulder, helping Jiao Wenbo get rid of the dark energy that Gu Dayong had entered his body, and looked at Gu Dayong calmly.
Very useful.
Gu Da paused, turned around slowly, looked at Cao Shaoqin with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Cao Shaoqin, you are so bold."
Cao Shaoqin is Chu Yi's confidant. Now as the governor of the East Factory, he can be said to be Chu Yi's chosen successor. Facing Gu Dayong's wooing, Cao Shaoqin gave Gu Dayong a very straightforward reply.
The heads of those sent by Dayong to persuade Cao Shaoqin would appear at Gu Dayong's house the next day, which could be said to be a clear indication of distance between them and Gu Dayong.
For Cao Shaoqin, Gu Dayong could be said to hate Cao Shaoqin very much. He wanted to tear Cao Shaoqin to pieces. As the chief of the Secretary of Ceremonies, according to common sense, as the chief of the Secretary of Ceremonies, he would usually supervise the East Factory, but when it came to
Here, something unexpected happened.
Because of Chu Yi, Cao Shaoqin was as secure as Mount Tai in the position of governor of the East Factory. As a result, he, the Chief Supervisor of Ceremonies, was unable to take charge of the East Factory and lost a large helping hand.
If there is help from Dongchang, Gu Dayong can guarantee that his power will definitely be raised to a higher level, and the number of officials in the court who dare to go against him will be reduced by at least 30% to 20%.
He didn't want to make any friends with Cao Shaoqin, but now Cao Shaoqin shouted at him so rudely, which made Gu Da vent the anger he had been holding back for a long time directly at Cao Shaoqin.
Staring coldly at Cao Shaoqin, Gu Dayong used his own status to suppress Cao Shaoqin. If Cao Shaoqin did not have the emperor's will, he would really need to see the ceremony when facing Gu Dayong, the chief supervisor of rituals.
However, when Cao Shaoqin looked at Gu Dayong, he glanced at Qian Ning and Yu Huatian, with a bit of smile in his eyes. The meaning was very obvious. If Qian Ning and Yu Huatian didn't speak again,
, then their Dongchang will have the exclusive credit for this.
Neither Qian Ning nor Yu Huatian were fools. Seeing Cao Shaoqin's gaze, they both spoke to Gu Dayong and said, "Manager Gu..."
Gu Dayong, who was holding back his anger, didn't care what Qian Ning, Yu Huatian and the others had to say. Anyway, the three of them came together, and now they were regarded as one by Gu Dayong.
The most important thing is that neither Qian Ning nor Yu Huatian is much better than Cao Shaoqin in Gu Dayong's mind.
Qian Ning and Yu Huatian actually refused his attempts to win over. They were just not as outstanding as Cao Shaoqin. But they also made it clear that they were unwilling to accept Gu Dayong's win over.
With squinted eyes and a gloomy face, Gu Da glanced at Qian Ning and Yu Huatian, and said coldly: "What, you actually want to stand with Cao Shaoqin?"
Qian Ning cupped his hands in the direction of the Forbidden City and shouted to Gu Dayong: "Your Majesty ordered Qian Ning, Cao Shaoqin, and Yu Huatian to "please" the chief manager to return to the palace!"
However, Gu Dayong did not notice that there was something wrong with the pronunciation of the word "please" in Qian Ning's words.
Frowning slightly, Gu Dayong looked at Qian Ning and the others and said, "Your Majesty has invited our family back to the palace. Did your Majesty tell me anything?"
After all, he came to visit Jiao Fang according to the emperor's order, but not long after, Qian Ning and others came to recruit him back to the palace. How could this not make Gu Dayong doubtful.
Of course, even if Gu Dayong had doubts in his heart, he would never have thought that Zhu Houzhao would send someone to check him, let alone Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning and the others came together, but the emperor was a little uneasy about him.
Shaking his head slightly, Yu Huatian spoke slowly, with a hint of femininity in his voice: "Your Majesty, please ask the chief steward to return to the palace. If the chief steward has nothing else to do, let's go back to the palace now. In this way, we will also come back to the palace."
So that I can return to His Majesty."
Gu Dayong didn't notice anything strange at all. On the contrary, Jiao Fang, who was sitting on the hospital bed and leaning on the headboard, glanced at Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning, with a hint of deep thought in his eyes.
Usually, suddenly the eyes light up.
Jiao Fang couldn't help but look at Gu Dayong with a strange look. Jiao Fang had obviously realized that there was something wrong with Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning, and Yu Huatian coming together to invite Gu Dayong to return to the palace.
Subconsciously, he looked towards Cao Shaoqin beside him, but at this moment, Cao Shaoqi's attention was all on Gu Dayong, but he did not notice Jiao Fang.
Gu Dayong chuckled and said, Your Majesty, it's true, our family has just left the palace not long ago, so now we are being invited back to the palace, back to the palace, I, the manager, will return to the palace right now!"
While talking, Gu Dayong walked out of the room. When he saw the groups of people in the yard, Gu Dayong was slightly stunned and frowned together.
Three teams of people appeared in the courtyard. When he walked out, the eyes of these Jinyi guards and Dongchang fans all fell on him.
That kind of look made Gu Dayong feel a little annoyed. What kind of look was this? I'm afraid it was the way he looked at criminals.
However, at this moment, Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning walked over, vaguely sandwiching Gu Dayong in the middle, blocking his way.
Gu Dayong noticed the unusual behavior of Cao Shaoqin and Qian Ning and already reacted. He felt a thump in his heart, panicked a little, and had a vague feeling of something bad.
Frowning, Gu Dayong suddenly turned his head and stared at Cao Shaoqin. Qian Ning and Qian Ning said slowly: "Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning, get out of here!"
As he spoke, Gu Da waved his hand, pointed at the three groups of people in the yard and said to Cao Shaoqin and others: "Get out, let all your people get away from us!"
However, Gu Dayong's roar was of no use to Qian Ning and Cao Shaoqin. Instead, Cao Shaoqin waved his hand, and immediately saw several Dongchang fans coming forward, and caught Gu Dayong in the middle.
.
Although he was not caught directly, Gu Dayong was surrounded.
"Be brave, you damn slaves, are you trying to rebel? Our family will not let you go, and neither will your Majesty..."
Although Jiao Fang said she was injured, when she saw this scene, especially when Jiao Fang only looked at Cao Shaoqin, Qian Ning and others' attitudes towards Gu Dayong, Jiao Fang began to have vague suspicions in her heart.
