Chapter 1580: It’s Your Parents
Editor: Henyee Translations
Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong looked at each other. From the prefecture magistrate’s tone, not only did he remember the Gu family, but he also had a deep impression of them?
Gu Yundong immediately said, "No, we’re not trying to save the Gu family. We just want to ask you about Gu Jingyuan’s situation."
The prefecture magistrate heaved a sigh of relief. "It’s fine as long as you don’t want to save them. To be honest, if you say that you want to save them, I really might not... stand on your side." After a pause, he asked, "Then do you want to know the situation of Gu Jingyuan?"
"We heard that Gu Jingyuan originally fled outside and was not exiled to Linxun Island with the rest of the Gu family. Later on, he was captured by someone in the Lingzhou Prefecture and brought here. We want to know who the person who captured Gu Jingyuan was?"
The prefecture magistrate’s expression was especially complicated.
He looked at their expectant expressions and opened his mouth a few times, but he didn’t know what to say.
Gu Yundong frowned. "Is it very difficult? Can’t you tell me?"
"Not really." Prefecture Magistrate Xun said, "Why are you looking for that person?"
"We have something very important to do. Speaking of which, the Gu family is also our enemy. We applauded Gu Jingyuan’s capture. Lord Xun, if you know who captured him, please tell us, okay?" Gu Yundong’s expression was very pious. She was just one step away from the truth.
On the account that she had saved Bai Yang and could be considered Bai Zhiyan’s benefactor, please say it.
Unexpectedly, the prefecture magistrate sighed and suddenly shouted to the servants outside, "Go and bring Nephew Bai and his wife back."
The servant received the order and ran away.
Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan were confused. "Lord Xun..."
"Let’s wait first." Then, the prefecture magistrate stopped talking and sat at the side to drink two mouthfuls of tea quietly.
The corners of Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. She did not know what the prefecture magistrate was up to. Could it be that he felt that their questions had violated confidentiality and wanted Bai Hang to take them away?
Fortunately, Bai Hang and his wife were not far away. The servants quickly brought them back.
Bai Hang and the Second Madam were puzzled. They looked at them in confusion. "Why? Have you finished discussing your matters?"
Gu Yundong shook her head.
The prefecture magistrate finally put down his cup and pointed at Bai Hang. "Didn’t you want to find out who captured Gu Jingyuan more than 20 years ago and exiled him to Linxun Island? Here, it’s them."
Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan turned to look at them at almost the same time.
The shock in their eyes was almost overflowing. They even held their breaths, their faces filled with disbelief.
What did they just hear??
Bai Hang was the one who had captured Gu Jingyuan back then, so he was also the one who had taken Shao Yin away. That Second Madam...
The two of them shifted their gazes to the Second Madam.
The Second Madam looked gentle and kind, and she was tall. Although she often had illnesses over the years, she did not look old at all. Instead, because she had a husband who doted on her, she looked a little innocent.
Yes, yes. When she stood with Bai Hang, weren’t they a match made in heaven?
It was exactly as Liang Zi had described it back then.
So, they were...
Gu Yundong looked at Shao Qingyuan and swallowed hard. She said hesitantly, "Are they your parents...?"
Shao Qingyuan slowly closed his eyes and suddenly grabbed her hand. He said in a low voice, "Let’s figure it out first."
Although he said that, Gu Yundong could clearly feel that his sweaty hands were trembling slightly from nervousness.
