This sudden heavy rain has been pattering for several hours.
In the Hou Mansion, a cup of tea was placed in front of Marquis Wu Gu Cangtian, and the tea was already completely cold.
Ever since Ye Lingyue knelt outside, Gu Cangtian maintained the same posture.
This old man, who seemed to be in his seventies and eighties, was a legendary existence in Daxia.
Marquis Wu, who lived and died together with the first emperor, defended half of Daxia's country. For Daxia, he was alone for many years without heirs or wives.
Although he came from an aristocratic family, he did not discriminate against commoners. Lan Yingwu, the commoner general, was single-handedly promoted by him.
Marquis Wu also controls 60% to 70% of Daxia's military power, and even Emperor Daxia dare not make mistakes in front of Marquis Wu.
He is Lan Yingwu's mentor and also his superior. Lan Yingwu and him have the same relationship as father and son.
Long before Ye Lingyue changed her name to Ye Lingyue, Lan Yingwu had reported her true identity to Marquis Wu.
Marquis Wu Gu Cangtian learned of what happened to the mother and daughter of the Ye family, and felt a little compassion, so he asked Lan Yingwu to accept Ye Lingyue as his adopted daughter.
But he never expected that this pair of mother and daughter would cause quite a disturbance not long after they arrived in Xiadu.
Especially Ye Huangyu, she was so bold that she dared to assassinate Hong Fang.
Although Gu Cangtian has always been contemptuous of Hong Mansion's style of work, in all fairness, Ye Huangyu has been reduced from a genius to an abandoned woman, which is really pitiful, but there are so many poor people in the world, Gu Cangtian will never waste a lot of money for no reason Force, to save an irrelevant person.
Moreover, Concubine Luo and Hong Fang's people are searching the city extensively, and if there is any trouble, they are likely to be caught by the other party's ear wires.
"Second Miss of the Lan family, is she still kneeling outside?" Gu Cangtian knocked on the cup.
"Reporting to Marquis Wu, Second Miss Lan passed out just now and was sent away. However, she is really a caring person, and she knelt for a long time. If it wasn't for the rain, she might have knelt down forever." Even the people in Marquis Wu's Mansion couldn't help feeling compassion for Ye Lingyue's actions.
"It's a filial daughter, but it's a pity that the Hong Mansion has been established for hundreds of years. With her mother and daughter, if they want to shake the Hong Mansion, it is undoubtedly a fly shaking a tree, and there is no chance." Wuhou Gu Cangtian shook his head.
He has been up and down in the officialdom for most of his life, and no one has seen him.
After Ye Lingyue changed her name to Ye Lingyue, if she could stick to her duty, she might be favored by the queen mother and get a good marriage in the future, but if she was obsessed with family hatred, she might ruin herself.
"Who said that mayflies can't shake trees." An abrupt voice descended from the sky.
The cup in Wuhou Gu Cangtian's hand shattered with a bang.
The whole Hou Mansion inside and outside was enveloped by Gu Cangtian's aura. Gu Cangtian had no intuition when this person came.
He stood up abruptly.
"Who dares to trespass on Marquis Wu's mansion?"
"It's a small Marquis Wu's mansion. I can come and leave whenever I want." There was already an extra person on the grand master's chair beside him.
When he saw the man wearing the gold mask, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, drinking it by himself, cold sweat suddenly broke out on Wuhou Gu Cangtian's forehead.
Being able to enter the Marquis Wu's mansion without knowing the ghosts, talking and laughing freely in front of Marquis Wu of Da Xia, as far as Marquis Wu knew, there were no more than ten people in the entire continent, not even the one from the Hong mansion could do this.
Among those ten people, most of them were about the same age as Gu Cangtian, and there were only two or three people of this age.
Looking at his outfit again, a name popped up in Gu Cangtian's mind.
In the past few years, a person who has risen with astonishing momentum in the mainland.
"Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong, what is your business in my Marquis Wu's Mansion?" Gu Cangtian said a word.
In my impression, he and the ghost emperor of Yan Dian don't have any friendship at all.
"Save people." Wu Zhongyan played with the cup in his hand.
"Save people?" Marquis Wu Gu Cangtian thought it was very funny.
The word "saving lives" can come from anyone's mouth, but it is very funny to say it from the mouth of Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong.
Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong only kills people, his hands are probably stained with more blood than Gu Cangtian, an old man who has fought on the battlefield for most of his life.
"Help, Ye Huangyu." Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong spat out four words.
Marquis Wu listened, why did he feel that something was wrong with these words.
After thinking about it again, I suddenly realized.
The Emotional Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong asked him to save Ye Huangyu.
It's just, is this the tone of begging for help
This is clearly an order.
Gu Cangtian has been the number one person in the Great Xia military for most of his life, when he was ordered like this, the old man was not happy and snorted coldly.
If it was someone else, Gu Cangtian immediately kicked him out.
But looking at the Ghost Emperor in front of him, who was sitting peacefully and had no intention of leaving, Gu Cangtian was at a loss what to do.
According to rumors from the outside world, the ghost emperor Wu Zhong already possesses the martial arts of emperors. He can thunder mountains with one sword and fill seas and rivers with one punch.
Such a character, if he is not happy alone, he will ruin most of Xiadu if he jumps around a few times.
"Are you related to the Ye family?" Gu Cangtian didn't expect that Wu Zhong came here for Ye Huangyu's life.
"Ye Huangyu is my mother-in-law." Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong answered very smoothly.
Wuhou Gu Cangtian was startled.
The implication is that Ye Huangyu's daughter is the ghost emperor Wu Zhong's woman
But Gu Cangtian thought about it again, that's not right, Ye Huangyu's injury needs to be rescued by a master of the five realms of reincarnation. If he wants to save his mother-in-law, he can go directly to save him, so why bother to go to Marquis Wu's mansion.
As if sensing Gu Cangtian's doubts, Wu Zhong coughed.
"It's not convenient for me to do it myself, Ye Huangyu is still my prospective mother-in-law for the time being."
Gu Cangtian had an epiphany, dared to love, the ghost emperor Wu Zhong was still pursuing his daughter... Gu Cangtian immediately admired and admired the second lady of the Lan family.
In this world, there are women who dare to refuse the pursuit of Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong
Gu Cangtian felt a little regretful at this time, he really should go and see who the second young lady of the Lan family is.
"But what if the old man doesn't save me?"
Gu Cangtian still refused to let go.
"Then after tomorrow, there will be no big summer on the mainland."
"Presumptuous! What a Wu Zhong, you think that my Great Xia can be destroyed if you say so." Blue veins popped up on Gu Cangtian's forehead.
"Marquis Wu, do you recognize what is in my hand?" Ghost Emperor Wu raised his thin lips, and there was something extra in his hand.
When he saw that thing, Marquis Wu's eyes bulged, it was Da Xia's soldier talisman.
"Last night, I picked it up from Emperor Daxia's pillow. Guess, is it hard to steal a soldier talisman or the head of Emperor Daxia?"
Wu Zhong smiled. At that moment, in Wuhou Gu Cangtian's eyes, his smile was like a demon, dangerous and weird.
