Slay demons and gain sixty years of skill at the beginning

Tiandu, Gu Mansion.

At dusk, during dinner, Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan were sitting at the dining table. There were fragrant dishes on the dining table. Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan were waiting for Gu Chengfeng.

Xu Qing'e raised her head and glanced at the sky, her slender eyebrows frowned slightly, and said: "It's already this time, why hasn't the master come back yet?"

Gu Qingyan sat aside, her face was as white as melon seeds, her makeup was curved, her nose was straight, she said softly: "Maybe something has delayed me."

A look of worry appeared on Xu Qing'e's face, and she said: "I don't know why today. I have always been a little uneasy since the master left in the morning, as if something was about to happen. Grandpa is out again, and I feel so anxious."

I’m really worried.”

"Don't worry, mother. My eldest brother, Ji Ren, has his own destiny. Nothing will happen to him. My father is in Tiandu, so there won't be any surprises. There may be something unexpected, and I might go out to have a drink with my colleagues."

Gu Qingyan comforted her from the side.

"I hope so." Xu Qing'e sighed softly, still looking worried.

"When father comes back later, let's heat up the food." Gu Qingyan said.

Xu Qing'e nodded and said nothing more.

Gu Qingyan glanced at her mother's expression. In fact, she was also a little confused. In the morning, Gu Chengfeng had promised to come back for dinner tonight. It made no sense that he hadn't arrived home at this time. It was very rare to have drinks with colleagues at short notice.

, it was just what she said to comfort Xu Qing'e.

"Xiaoyu, take the food to the kitchen and heat it up." Xu Qing'e said.

"Yes, madam." The little maid standing nearby responded and prepared to take the food to the kitchen.

But at this moment, there was suddenly a loud noise outside, and then someone saw the door of Gu's mansion being pushed open, and a dozen people forced their way in.

"What are you doing? You can't go in..." The concierge Zhang wanted to stop him, but he was old and was pushed to the ground by one of them.

"What's going on?" Hearing the noise, Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan hurriedly walked out of the back room.

"Madam, they... they said they want to search our Gu Mansion." The concierge Zhang looked a little flustered. These people wanted to search the Gu Mansion without any explanation. He couldn't stop them even if he wanted to.

Xu Qing'e frowned. She stepped forward and helped Uncle Zhang up. The group of people who broke into Gu's house were all wearing official uniforms, with long swords on their waists, and a mirror embroidered on their chests.

Seeing this outfit, Xu Qing'e suddenly felt anxious.

After all, Gu Chengfeng has been working in Tiandu for a long time. Xu Qing'e has been influenced by his ears and eyes, and he is also familiar with some important institutions in Daxia. The group of people in front of him wearing official uniforms with Mingjing embroidered on their chests come from a company called "Mingjing Division" in Daxia.

organization.

The Mirror Division, as well as the Jingtian Division, are two crucial institutions in Daxia. If the Jingtian Division is external, then the Mirror Division is internal.

The duty of Jingtiansi is to supervise the world, while the duty of Mingjingsi is to supervise all officials. It can be said that Mingjingsi is a sharp knife hanging over the heads of all the nobles and officials in Daxia.

In Daxia, from the princes and ministers to the dignitaries of all walks of life, to the ninth-rank officials and the minor officials, there is no one who is not jealous or afraid of the Mirror Division.

Mingjingsi means a mirror hanging high, and there will be a mirror embroidered in the center of the official uniform. It means that every official in Daxia can understand his responsibilities and have a mirror hanging high in his heart to know what to do and what not to do.

Should do.

Once an official commits corruption and perverts the law, the Mirror Division will be dispatched. Since the establishment of the Mirror Division in Daxia, countless ministers have been imprisoned in the prison of the Mirror Division. Their fate will be extremely miserable, and their families may even be harmed.

Once the Mirror Division catches you and goes to jail, no one can save you.

There was even a prince of Daxia who broke the law and was arrested by the Mirror Division and thrown into prison, where he died.

It can be said that just three words of Mingjing Division are enough to scare many officials in Daxia.

When Xu Qing'e saw people from the Mingjing Division breaking into Gu's house, she knew something must have happened to Gu Chengfeng.

"I wonder what you are doing?" Xu Qing'e asked pretending to be calm.

Gu Qingyan was tall and slender, standing next to Xu Qing'e. She saw her mother's solemn expression and thought about it.

A total of twelve people came from the Mirror Department opposite, led by a middle-aged man with a gloomy face, who was Liu Zheng's father, Liu Ningyuan.

Liu Ningyuan looked Xu Qing'e up and down, and there was an inexplicable light flickering in his eyes. Although Xu Qing'e was old, she still had charm and a curvy figure. When Liu Ningyuan looked at her like this, Xu Qing'e also frowned and was a little unhappy.

After looking at Xu Qing'e, Liu Ningyuan looked at Gu Qingyan a few more times, with a sneer on his face and said: "Gu Chengfeng is so lucky to have such a son, wife and daughter, hum."

Then, his face turned cold, he waved his palm and shouted: "Search for me!"

"Yes!"

After hearing this, the officials from the Mirror Department behind him immediately rushed into the Gu Mansion and started a violent search. Ping-pong sounds were heard from time to time. This group of people was extremely arrogant. In a short time, countless furniture and porcelain were damaged and beaten.

Broken.

"What are you doing?" Seeing this scene, Gu Qingyan frowned, opened her eyes wide, and glared at Liu Ningyuan.

"Qingyan." Seeing this, Xu Qing'e's face tightened, and she quickly took Gu Qingyan's hand and pulled her back to her side.

"Humph."

Liu Ningyuan snorted coldly, rolled his eyes, and shouted: "Gu Chengfeng is so audacious, corrupt and perverting the law. He actually dares to buy and sell officials. He has been captured by me on the spot. I am searching your Gu family today to find out what Gu Chengfeng has been doing all these years."

How much greed has been done without conscience!"

Boom!

Liu Ningyuan's words were like a bolt from the blue that struck Xu Qing'e's heart. Buying and selling an official position, no matter which dynasty or generation it belongs to, is a serious crime that is enough to kill one's head!

Xu Qing'e's vision went dark, her heart seemed to stop, her feet went weak, and she almost fainted.

"Mother!"

Gu Qingyan's heart suddenly tightened, and she quickly supported Xu Qing'e's body that was about to collapse.

Then, she turned her head, glared at Liu Ningyuan, and said: "Impossible, there is no way my father would do such a thing!"

Tiandu is the capital of Daxia, and Gu Chengfeng has served in Tiandu for many years. Although he is only a seventh-rank official, he does have a lot of gray income, but it is just a small profit, and it does not reach the level of violating the laws of Daxia.

Moreover, after being an official for so many years, Gu Chengfeng still knows very well what he can and cannot do, what he can and cannot take.

What's more, Gu Chengfeng has never been a profit-seeking person, so Gu Qingyan didn't believe what Liu Ningyuan just said.

Liu Ningyuan smiled coldly and said: "You still want to quibble? Gu Chengfeng has been captured by us on the spot as well as the stolen goods. Whether we do it or not is not your decision!"

As he said that, he ignored Gu Qingyan's gaze and walked straight past Xu Qing'e. As he passed by, he glanced at Xu Qing'e's towering chest and whispered in her ear: "Your nephew beat my son."

He was seriously injured and lost most of my son's martial arts skills. Today, I arrested your husband just like retaliation. When Gu Chen comes back, I will also make sure that he can't eat anything and walk around. The end will be like yours.

Just like a dead husband!"

"If you want to save them, I'll use you or your daughter in exchange."

After saying this, Liu Ningyuan sneered a few times and walked away.

After hearing this, Xu Qing'e's eyes suddenly darkened and she fainted.

"Mother, what's wrong with you, mother..." Gu Qingyan looked panicked and kept calling.

Liu Ningyuan turned his back to the two of them, listening to Gu Qingyan's call, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, and the smile on his face was extremely strong.
