Chapter 535 Inexplicable Anger Emerges
Inside the imperial palace.
Wu Jia sat alone on her throne, seemingly thinking about something.
At this time, footsteps came from the door of the main hall.
The imperial servant who received Lin Ziluo before walked in gently.
Seeing him coming in, Wu Jia casually asked, "What is it?"
"My lord, I have sorted out the general behavior of Gu Zhuang and Lin Ziluo you asked for yesterday after they left the imperial palace." The imperial servant said respectfully.
"Oh? The two of them, tell me about Lin Ziluo's behavior first." Upon hearing the news about the two of them, Wu Jia immediately became interested and asked with vigor.
"After Lin Ziluo was awarded the reward by you, he followed Gu Zhuang back to Gu's house and stayed there for nearly two hours."
"Later, I took a brother named Dasha and a brother named Wei Tong to the mansion where you received your reward. After staying in the mansion for about four hours, I went to the Gu family again."
"I went to the city management office with a servant of the Gu family and found Yu Fang, the manager there, and extorted in front of everyone. I extorted a total of 70,000 coins. The treasury has already reimbursed the money."
"Hahaha, this person is interesting."
Hearing this, Wu Jia suddenly laughed a few times, but she wasn't particularly surprised.
It is normal for an ordinary poor person to suddenly gain such great power, and to be able to do such a thing.
Even Wu Jia felt that Lin Ziluo's layout was a bit small.
As the majestic leader of the Knights, why would he blackmail this little thing.
Seeing Wu Jia laughing, the imperial servant immediately stopped reporting and waited until Wu Jia finished laughing before continuing to report.
"Lin Ziluo didn't move much later. He returned home after talking with Gu Zhuang for an hour. During this period, he didn't call the maids or servants into the room, so no one knew what he was doing in the room."
Wu Jia frowned, and said, "Not close to women? It's not easy to control, but fortunately, there is a fatal flaw of greed for money."
"It doesn't matter if we are close to the Gu family now, as long as there is still a little kindness, it's understandable."
"How about this, send more people to find some reasons to give him benefits in the past few days, and it will be easy to keep him."
"Understood, I will arrange for people to go there soon." The emperor nodded respectfully.
"What about Guzhuang? What did he do?" Wu Jia continued to ask.
"After Lin Ziluo left his home in Guzhuang, he brought various gifts to visit the major families in the city. He visited seven families in total."
"But it's useless. The heads of those families have agreed with us long ago, and they didn't care about the ancient village at all. Several families didn't even open the door to welcome them." The emperor servant said.
Wu Jia nodded very satisfied with the result, and then said: "Investigate all the families that have hosted the ancient village, so as not to be with us on the surface, but secretly have ulterior motives."
"You must know that there is no simple family in charge of guarding the city wall. They are not easy to deal with."
"Understood." The emperor servant said.
"Okay, if that's the case, then you just..." Wu Jia was about to let the imperial servant back down, but she heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the door.
Wu Jia frowned very displeased.
He especially hated hearing such hurried footsteps, and all the servants in the imperial palace should know it.
Appearing with the sound of footsteps was a man in a gray robe with a shadowy face.
When Wu Jia saw him, she put away her displeasure, because he knew that something urgent must have happened when this guy came to find him.
The gray-robed man didn't delay either, and before Wu Jia could speak, he took the initiative to say, "My lord, according to the urgent report from the hidden thread buried in the Gu family, Gu Zhuang will leave the old house of the Gu family in two hours and return to the high mountain and sea walls. "
"Oh? It seems that the situation is not good, so are you going to run first?" Wu Jia guessed suspiciously.
"Not only that, but according to the spies' report, Lin Ziluo, the head of the third knight order you just appointed yesterday, is also planning to leave with Guzhuang." The gray-robed man continued.
"what!"
Wu Jia who hadn't reacted at all when she heard that Gu Zhuang was about to leave stood up instantly and roared angrily.
"He wants to go with Gu Zhuang? Is he planning to betray me?"
"It's so hateful! The emperor has given him so many benefits, yet he still wants to leave, and in a sneaky way."
Hearing this news, the imperial servants on the side couldn't accept it, and clenched their fists tightly.
The gray-robed man looked at the two of them as if they had touched the reverse scale, and was very puzzled.
No, isn't this person just a child of destiny who has just awakened.
Even if the potential is really good, you don't have to have this kind of attitude.
But immediately after, endless anger surged in his heart inexplicably.
"That's right, this kind of ungrateful villain should be tortured! The emperor treats him so respectfully, and he doesn't know how to be grateful." The gray-robed man said with righteous indignation.
The three of them didn't know why when Lin Ziluo was mentioned, the anger in their hearts gushed out like crazy, and they had nowhere to vent.
Wu Jia slapped the copybook in front of her and scolded.
"Pass my order to let Ding Minglang lead people to surround the old house of the ancient family. Don't expose it for the time being. Once they want to leave, find a way to stop them. If they insist on leaving, they can use force and notify me again."
Force can be used!
Let Ding Minglang take action!
The man in gray robe and the imperial servant looked at each other, it seems that the emperor's determination this time is not ordinary.
"Master Gu, I don't know what you think of your servants." Lin Ziluo lay on the rocking chair and said leisurely.
Gu Zhuang, who was busy arranging things, raised his head in confusion.
"What does Brother Lin mean? These servants of mine have all belonged to our ancient family for decades, and there is nothing to say about their loyalty."
"Oh, maybe." Lin Ziluo sighed.
Then I saw the door of this room being pushed open, and a sly boy with a height of only 70 centimeters dragged a strong man in.
"What's going on here?" Gu Zhuang said in surprise.
I don't know if he was surprised by the identity of the strong man, or because he was surprised that this little man could pull a two-meter-tall strong man.
"This guy sneaked out to send some signal before, and was discovered by the treacherous boy, so he was brought here." Lin Ziluo opened the mouth and sighed inwardly.
When I left, I was careful to make sure that the group of maids and servants did not find out.
But I didn't expect that there was a flaw in Guzhuang.
"Impossible, he is the servant in charge of travel, and he has been in the Gu family for decades, and he was selected by me." Gu Zhuang still couldn't believe it.
He is not a fool, so he naturally knows the importance of a servant's loyalty.
Therefore, the loyalty of servants is often screened and tested.
Even if there are still problems in this way, it can only be said that this servant is hiding too deeply.
"Nothing is impossible. I'm afraid the emperor already knows what we are going to leave, so you should pack up quickly." Lin Ziluo urged.
