Chapter 194 "Do your best"?
"But I'll tell you in advance," Qian Li added, "If you decide to leave, I won't care about you anymore after you leave Wuzhou. Of course, I can't care about you anymore."
"But as someone who has been through this, I still have to remind you that you are not alone."
Qian Li has lived a life of being constrained by others for ten years. If he had not been forced by the situation, he would not have wanted to use such dirty means.
Although Gu Yuan is young, he is a smart man, otherwise those people would not be so obedient.
Qian Li believed that he could see the situation clearly.
Sure enough, Gu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I believe you."
Qian Li raised his eyebrows and quickly took out a pen and paper. "Okay, I'm ready. Go ahead."
Gu Yuan paused, "You still want to write it down?"
Qian Li said as if it was a matter of course, "What else? I have to show it to others!"
Looking at Gu Yuan's expression, Qian Li explained, "Isn't this because I'm afraid there will be omissions when I repeat it to others?"
For some reason, Gu Yuan intuitively felt that the "other person" Qian Li was talking about was Madam Dayu.
Gu Yuan shook his head, getting rid of the ridiculous thoughts in his mind.
How is it possible? She looks like an ordinary girl. How could she be related to a high-ranking official in Kyoto?
Gu Yuan deliberately ignored the matter and told everything he knew, but he deliberately concealed the fact that he had no evidence.
Qian Li frowned and looked at the paper in front of him.
It turned out that the officials who built the dam cut corners, resulting in the dam's poor quality. The flood directly broke the dam.
In fact, Wuzhou is very similar to Liuzhou. Liuzhou has dams and Wuzhou also has them, but the authorities have never assigned anyone to build dams for Wuzhou.
The money for building the dam was raised by Mr. Zhang who called on the shops in the city to raise money.
Qian Li had to once again prostrate himself in admiration for Mr. Zhang.
If it weren't for his foresight, the people of Wuzhou would probably be included in the list of people who would have to report to the King of Hell.
But at this point, Qian Li asked a question, "Who is this corrupt person?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Who else could it be? It must be that person who is second to none and above ten thousand people."
When Gu Yuan said this, Qian Li's writing hand paused. For some reason, he suddenly felt panic in his heart.
But Qian Li had no time to respond. He only heard Gu Yuan continue, "He Gou is the man who can call the shots in the court and has the final say."
Qian Li was completely dumbfounded, "Are you talking about Prime Minister He Yun?"
"What else?" Gu Yuan felt that Qian Li's ears were not working very well. "Who else could it be except him?"
Qian Li put down his pen silently, "Is there any misunderstanding?"
"What misunderstanding? There is no misunderstanding." Gu Yuan slapped the table and stood up.
Qian Li was horrified, "Since you said it was him, do you have any evidence?"
Qian Li knew He Yun's character very well, so no matter what, Qian Li didn't believe that He Yun was such a person.
Evidence? Gu Yuan certainly had it, but he was unwilling to give it to Qian Li.
Qian Li saw through Gu Yuan's thoughts and didn't ask any more questions. He sighed and said, "You know, the one who ordered me to protect your lives this time is Lord He."
Gu Yuan's expression froze, and he asked in disbelief, "How is it possible?"
"How is it impossible?" Qian Li asked back, "As far as I know, although Lord He has many students, most of them are from poor families."
"He is an upright person and an honest official. He would never do anything corrupt."
Gu Yuan was far away in Liuzhou, so naturally he didn't know about He Yun who was in Kyoto.
Although Qian Li didn't understand it very well, judging from the fact that He Yun was willing to let him go, He Yun was at least not a bloodthirsty person.
"What's more," Qian Li thought about it and decided to make this matter clear, "he is the only one who can help you right now."
Gu Yuan's face was grim, and he clutched his sleeve tightly, "I saw with my own eyes that the governor of our Liuzhou called him Lord He."
"You saw it with your own eyes?" Qian Li grasped the key point sharply, "But Master He will not leave Kyoto unless there are special circumstances."
"And as far as I know, Lord He has never left Kyoto since he sent Princess Yujia off to marry three years ago."
"How is that possible?" Hearing this, Gu Yuan's face went blank for a moment, "I clearly heard..."
"It doesn't matter what you heard. You haven't seen him, so how can you be sure it's him?"
These words were not said by Qian Li. Gu Yuan's expression froze. He stood up and looked left and right vigilantly, but he didn't see anyone.
"Who?"
Qian Li said calmly, "If you don't want to show up, forget it."
The voice said calmly, "Thank you."
It seems that he really has no intention of showing up.
Qian Li saw Gu Yuan's serious face and said calmly, "Young man, don't panic when things happen. Drink some tea and calm down first."
Gu Yuan glanced at Qian Li with a complicated expression, "What does this person do?"
He didn't think that the seemingly poor man in front of him could afford to support such a master.
Qian Li shrugged, "I don't know, I don't know him, maybe I've only met him once."
"Humph," the voice sneered, "Two sides to be exact."
Qian Li rolled his eyes, "Okay, okay, both sides, you have the final say, hero."
Gu Yuan looked around and asked, "Did you hear what we said just now?"
"you still need to ask?"
The voice answered again, but Gu Yuan still couldn't tell where the person was hiding.
After trying this a few times, I gave up.
Gu Yuan sat on the chair resignedly, "You are the ones with the dogs, I don't trust you."
Maybe this person who is hiding his head and showing his tail is the killer sent by He Gou.
"Believe it or not, but you won't be able to see her anymore." There was a hint of regret in his words.
Gu Yuan paused, then slapped the table and stood up again, "Don't hurt her."
Qian Li patted his frightened heart and said, "I've told you, young man, don't be so excited."
I’m old now and I really can’t stand being startled all the time.
The voice sneered, "My people will not serve as shadows for others."
The anger on Gu Yuan's face disappeared, replaced by astonishment.
"I was watching you early this morning, and I heard what you said to his wife."
"You..." Gu Yuan's cheeks flushed, as if his little thoughts were exposed.
"She just looks like my sister." Gu Yuan explained.
"I think she's my beloved sister!" Qian Li said, "Who looks at a sister like that?"
Ye Qi did not hide his dislike for Gu Yuan at all, "I think it's better to let him fend for himself."
"Old He doesn't want to take the blame." His words revealed his familiarity with He Yun.
"Then how are you going to explain when you go back?" Qian Li didn't want to give up.
He didn't know whether what Ye Qi said was true or not, but he couldn't bear to watch so many people die in vain.
"I don't need to explain." Ye Qi said, "Old He won't blame me just because I didn't bring the person back."
This is not wrong. When He Yun came, he said "do my best".
Doesn’t that mean it doesn’t matter if you don’t bring it back or not?
