When he entered the Hushan Camp, Old Marquis warned him not to act on his emotions and not be impulsive, and Gu Changqing had been strictly abiding by his reminders all these years.

But today, was he no longer able to endure it?

Others might believe it, but Old Marquis didn’t.

There must be another reason.

Old Marquis asked again, ”Do you have a personal grudge with Tang Ming?”

Gu Changqing continued to shut his mouth tight.

Old Marquis got angry, took off the whip at his waist and unfurled it with a ‘pah’. The long tail of the whip suffused with a cold light struck the ground as if it could spark a fire, ”Your wings have hardened, so you donʼt take your grandfather seriously anymore, is that it? Answer me!”

Gu Changqing spoke lightly, ”Grandfather, take it as a personal grudge, if you will.”

What did he just say?

What did he mean he could take it as a personal grudge?

Old Marquis gnashed his teeth, ”Why don’t you tell me then? What kind of personal grudge is it?”

Tang Ming didn’t have a good reputation in the military camp, but most people didn’t know how nasty he was and what kind of despicable things he had done.

Gu Changqing was determined not to say anything.

When it came to Gu Yanʼs reputation, he wouldn’t spill a word.

Old Marquis was furious, ”You canʼt say it, can you? Then you are acting in defiance of the law and disregarding military discipline! Do you believe I won’t punish you!”

With a lash of the whip, Gu Changqing’s flesh cracked open!

Old Marquis had a sharp look on his face, ”Do you know your mistake?”

Gu Changqing looked indifferent, ”I donʼt know.”

Old Marquis flung down the whip once again, directly causing Gu Changqingʼs old wound to bleed.

”Grandfather!”

”Eldest brother!”

It was Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin wearing a hat.

It turned out that when Gu Changqing was constantly beating up Tang Mingʼs people one-sidedly on the ring, his dark guards noticed that something was wrong and rushed back to the estate to report to Old Marquis.

However, Old Marquis was outside. Today, it happened that there were no classes in Qinghe Academy, and the two brothers were at home, so they came here first to take a look.

Both of them rushed into the torture chamber, hugging each arm of the furious Old Marquis.

Gu Chengfeng said, ”Grandfather, eldest brotherʼs injury has just healed. Donʼt hit him anymore!”

Gu Chenglin nodded, ”That’s right, Grandfather, eldest brother is not made of steel. You’re beating him every three or five days, do you still want to let eldest brother live?”

Old Marquis was even more furious and said, ”Get the hell out of here, both of you! Otherwise, I’ll beat you up as well!”

”Then beat us up!” Gu Chengfeng knelt down beside Gu Changqing.

Gu Chenglin shrank his neck. He was a little scared, but when he saw his two older brothers kneeling, he clenched his teeth and went down on his knees next to his older brothers.

Only, he hugged his head with his hand, saying, ”My hair has just grown out, can grandfather not hit me on the head?”

Old Marquis：“…”

Ultimately, Old Marquis kicked Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin out.

The two people heard the sound of lashes landing on Gu Changqing from outside the torture chamber and paced around anxiously.

They didn’t know how long had passed before the door of the torture chamber opened up and Old Marquis came out with a livid face. He was still holding the whip in his hand, and the veins on the back of his hand and forehead were bulging. It could be seen that he really went all out just now.

The two of them looked at Old Marquis, wanting to say something but hesitated. Old Marquis didnʼt say a word to them and left with a steady face.

Only then did they enter the torture chamber again.

Gu Changqing collapsed on the straw mat, covered in whip injuries all over.

”Eldest brother!” Gu Chenglinʼs eyes were red. He rushed over and helped Gu Changqing up.

Gu Chengfeng took a deep look at his eldest brother and said to his third brother, ”You go to the carriage and bring over the jinchuang medicine from the secret compartment.”

”... Okay!” Gu Chenglin choked with sobs. He wiped the tears in his eyes and went out.

There was no third person in the room, but Gu Chengfeng sensed some kind of movement outside the torture chamber. The area was guarded, but they were not too close.

He helped Gu Changqing to sit more properly on the straw mat, with his back against the cold wall.

In fact, he and Gu Chenglin both heard the conversation between their grandfather and eldest brother just now. Gu Chenglin was simple-minded and didn’t think much of it, but he felt that something was strange.

Gu Chengfeng crouched down on one knee beside Gu Changqing, looked at him and said, ”Eldest brother, youʼve changed. You werenʼt like this before. What happened between you and grandfather?”

On the way here, he and Gu Chenglin heard about the events in the military camp. He thought that his eldest brother was just venting on behalf of the Gu Family Army, so although he felt that his eldest brother was impulsive, he didnʼt question his actions.

On the contrary, it was his grandfatherʼs interaction with his eldest brother that made him feel a little strange.

In the past, his eldest brother was very respectful to their grandfather. Whenever their grandfather asked questions, he would tell him everything he knew.

Recently, however, his eldest brother obviously spoke less words to their grandfather.

At first, he thought it was just his eldest brother becoming more and more introverted as he grew up, but today it seemed that it wasn’t the case.

Was it just his illusion? He somehow felt... that his eldest brother had some resentment towards his grandfather.

”It’s nothing.” Gu Changqing said.

Gu Chengfeng looked at him suspiciously, ”Is it really nothing? Or... Are you resenting grandfather for neglecting us in the estate for many years?”

Gu Changqing shut his eyes and responded, ”I said itʼs nothing. You talk so much, are you done memorizing all your books?”

Gu Chengfeng choked up.

What book was there to memorize ah?

He went to the academy just to muddle through the classes, okay?

He wasn’t in the mood to study!

However, despite such thoughts, he was actually doing well in school. He had a bright mind. If he hadnʼt come from the Marquis Estate and was born as the second son who didnʼt have to inherit the family business and wasnʼt given high hopes, perhaps he would have studied diligently and worked as a court official.

For the time being, he couldn’t help with the matter of his eldest brother. After Gu Chenglin brought the jinchuang medicine and applied it to their eldest brother, both Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin went back to the Marquis Estate.

Gu Chengfeng finished the homework given by his teacher and did Gu Chenglinʼs share by the way. He was about to rest when he saw a pigeon landing on his windowsill.

This was no ordinary pigeon.

His eyes moved. He went over and picked up the pigeon. He looked around to make sure that no one was looking before he untied the note from the pigeon’s feet.

He had another mission tonight.

After Gu Chenglin fell asleep, Gu Chengfeng changed into night clothes, put on a mask and quietly slipped out of the Marquis Estate.

He received missions through the Thousand Sounds Pavilion. This carrier pigeon was something he raised and was then kept in the Thousand Sounds Pavilion. The Thousand Sounds Pavilion didn’t know his real identity.

The appointed place was in a private room on the second floor of the Thousand Sounds Pavilion.

The other party seemed to have been waiting there for a long time.

He wore a mask, and the other party was also wearing a veiled hat, so neither of them could see the otherʼs features.

”Iʼve heard a lot about you.” The other party, holding a folding fan, smiled at Gu Chengfeng and cupped his hands.

He sounded like a seven or eighty-year-old man, but the hand holding the folding fan was abnormally young.

Gu Chengfeng had been doing various missions for a few years now and had seen all kinds of strange methods to hide oneʼs identity. Changing one’s voice was one small trick among them.

Gu Chengfeng cut to the chase, ”Speak, what do you want?”

With a smile, the other party took out a pouch from his bosom and put it on the table, and then slowly pushed it in front of Gu Chengfeng.

Gu Chengfeng opened the pouch and looked. Oh boy, itʼs all gold!
