For a moment, Gu Xiao almost wanted to retreat, but He Lie said calmly, “Okay!”
His word was the final word.
Gu Xiao felt relieved. The corners of his lips curled up uncontrollably, and his eyes burned.
With He Lie’s order, the Embroidered Uniform Guards under his command immediately took action. In less than ten minutes, a team of more than 20 people set off from the North Town. Gu Xiao naturally followed.
Wherever the Embroidered Uniform Guards passed, they were famous. The passersby and carriages all avoided them, and there was an atmosphere of fear.
After five minutes, the group arrived at the Gu Mansion on Yuan’an Street under the bewildered gazes of passersby. The red-painted door of the Gu Mansion was knocked heavily by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
“Dong dong dong!”
As the guard shouted, “Coming”, he hurriedly came over to open the door. When he saw that it was the Embroidered Uniform Guards, he was stunned.
One of the Embroidered Uniform Guards said majestically, “Commander He has something to see battalion commander Gu for!”
Even though this Embroidered Uniform Guard’s attitude wasn’t bad, the gatekeeper who came to answer the door was still a little uneasy. After all, everyone in the capital knew the reputation of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. Everyone knew that it was most likely not a good thing for the Embroidered Uniform Guards to visit.
The gatekeeper stammered, “Sir, our master is having a banquet in the small garden.”
An old woman’s legs were a little weak, but she immediately ran to the northwest, planning to report to Gu Yuan.
He Lie left a few Embroidered Uniform Guards outside the residence and led more than a dozen people through the high threshold. He didn’t care about the commoners who had come to watch the commotion outside the residence.
“Commander He, let me lead you there,” Gu Xiao volunteered eagerly and squeezed up from behind the crowd.
It was only at this moment that the Gu family’s gatekeeper realized that Gu Xiao was also there.
Under Gu Xiao’s lead, the group of Embroidered Uniform Guards strode towards the small garden. As they walked, there was a murderous aura.
Wherever he passed, it was as if a cold wind was whistling past. The servants of the Gu Mansion were all on tenterhooks, not knowing what had happened to make the Embroidered Uniform Guards come knocking.
Gu Xiao naturally noticed the uneasiness of these servants. When he thought of how he had been expelled by the guards previously, he felt relieved.
He walked forward with his head held high, already waiting impatiently to see Gu Yuan’s expression change.
In the water pavilion in the small garden, it was still lively. Fan Beiran, Lu Shi, Yue Jun, and the others hadn’t left. They were still drinking, playing, and joking.
Even when they saw the arrival of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, these people were quite calm.
They knew He Lie, and He Lie recognized many of them. Although these young masters weren’t the eldest son or heir of the family, they weren’t unknown people. Some of them worked in the army, the Military Department of the five cities, and the Twelve Guards. A few of them were famously profligate sons.
Gu Yuan stood up generously and cupped his hands at He Lie. “Commander He.”
His expression and posture were quite relaxed. Even when facing the terrifying commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, he was still chatting and laughing, as if the person standing in front of him was just an ordinary person.
He Lie went straight to the point. “Battalion Commander Gu, someone reported that your residence is hiding the remaining members of the Yu family.”
With that, He Lie looked at Gu Xiao, who was a few steps away. “The person who reported it is your cousin.”
There was silence in the water pavilion. The young masters looked at each other and were stunned.
Before Gu Yuan could speak, Lu Shi beat him to it and questioned Gu Xiao, “Gu Xiao, why are you talking about the remaining members of the Yu family for no reason? Are you trying to take revenge on All Yuan for chasing you out just now?!”
Lu Shi snorted and put down the wine glass in his hand heavily.
Everyone’s disdainful gazes shot at Gu Xiao like knives, but Gu Xiao didn’t care at all. Instead, he raised his chin even higher.
“Revenge?” He Lie raised his eyebrows in confusion.
The person who explained was Fan Beiran. “Just now, we were drinking well when Gu Xiao suddenly came to cause trouble without informing us. He was chased out by Ah Yuan. You came so quickly. He must have gone to the North Town Bureau after leaving here. Hmph, isn’t this revenge?!”
“I’m not taking revenge!” Gu Xiao raised his chin and said loudly, “I’m telling the truth. There’s clearly the cry of a baby in this residence, but my brother denied it and insisted that it was a cat. I think he’s just feeling guilty.”
“Besides, I’ve asked the old servants in the residence. In the past half a month, many people have heard the night cry of a baby..”
