Chapter 20 Throw away the trash
Li He swallowed hard. She was obviously just a fragile girl, how could she have such a powerful aura!

"I, we were ordered to search the house. I suspect you stole the child and hid it in the house."

Gu Mengyin took out a green silk ribbon and tied her hair behind her head with both hands. She walked towards Li He and the others step by step.

Li He was so frightened that he backed away, "What are you going to do?"

Gu Mengyin slightly raised the corners of her lips, her eyes bursting with coldness, "Throw away the trash."

"what!"

"what!"

Screams resounded throughout the courtyard, and everyone saw the Imperial Guards being thrown out of the courtyard one by one like bags.

Li He, who was pressed at the bottom, couldn't take a breath and fainted directly.

After hearing the news, Mr. Wang rushed over and stared at Gu Mengyin in shock.

"You, you are disobeying orders, take her down for me."

"stop."

A deep voice sounded from behind.

Everyone turned around and saw Mr. Jing Zhaoyin Li, dressed in official robes, striding towards them.

When Wang Captou saw it, everyone stepped forward to salute.

"Sir, why are you here?"

Mr. Li glanced at the imperial guard who was still lying beside him, his eyes twitching, "I only asked you to search the house, not to hurt people. Mr. Wang Captou, what are you doing?"

Capt. Wang was also helpless. Originally, he wanted to have a good communication, but unexpectedly the Forbidden Army acted violently as soon as they arrived. He was afraid that he would be accused of covering up, so he had no choice but to follow the search.

"Yes, it's because of my humble position that I'm not doing well."

Mr. Li frowned and turned to look at Gu Mengyin, who was still exuding air-conditioning.

I barely slept last night. It was almost dawn and I was able to squint for a while, but I was woken up by someone. Gu Mengyin's anger did not dissipate so quickly.

"I heard that the eldest lady and the second young master of your house were on the street late at night, moving around in a sneaky way, and the imperial guards saw you stealing the child. Is this possible?"

"This is nonsense. We went to Cai's Mansion last night and came out of Cai's Mansion. Mr. Cai can prove why he stole the child. Li He is clearly slandering us." Gu Wenque was awakened. After learning the truth, he hurried over.

Gu Jiancheng said with a dark face: "Master Li, you just issued a search warrant based on a few words from the Imperial Army. Isn't it too hasty?"

If someone else had said this, Mr. Li would definitely not believe it, but the officer of the Forbidden Army Report was different, and he had to take it seriously.

"Give me the birthday of the stolen child."

"What?" Mr. Li didn't respond.

The coldness between Gu Mengyin's brows became even more intense, "The children who were stolen yesterday, give me their birthdays and horoscopes."

Gu Wenbin had spent the longest time with Gu Mengyin, so he could understand what she meant right away.

"Master Li, the eldest lady wants the horoscopes of those stolen children. She can find them." After saying that, he turned back to look at Gu Mengyin, "Is this what the eldest lady means?"

Gu Mengyin hummed lightly.

"Even Master Hui Ling can't figure it out. How can you, a girl like you, not figure it out?"

It is not unheard of to calculate one's whereabouts by reading one's horoscopes, but one must have a very high level of ethics to do it. Mr. Li did not believe that Gu Mengyin, a childish little girl, had such an ability.

"Master Li, you don't know. The eldest lady is a close disciple of the Six-Finger Taoist Master of Sanqing Temple in Tianmen Mountain. Her Taoist skills are beyond the comparison of ordinary people."

Lord Li of Sanqingguan knew about it, but he didn't think Gu Mengyin was better than Master Huiling.

"I only give you one chance, hurry up."

Gu Ming'an didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes lit up, "Sir, if you trust the eldest lady, she will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

Master Li still didn't believe it, but he also wanted to know what tricks Gu Mengyin was going to play.

When the family members came to report the case, the Yamen would also register the children's horoscopes, and Mr. Li immediately sent someone back to pick them up. "Another piece of their personal clothing and half a teacup of blood from their blood relatives."

Mr. Li also agreed.

Half an hour later, the horoscopes and underwear were delivered.

"Now that the things are here, what do you want, girl?"

Gu Mengyin wrote the corresponding eight characters on the clothes with blood.

Then she laid out the clothes on the table. She closed her eyes, gently put her hands on the clothes, and silently recited a spell.

In an instant, everyone's clothes moved without wind, and the strong wind formed a small whirlpool on the three pieces of clothing. The whirlpool became faster and faster, and finally broke away from the clothes and flew towards the sky.

Gu Mengyin stopped her hand, took out the yellow paper from her body, tore it into paper figurines, and flew into the sky.

The three paper figures flew in one direction and soon left Gu's mansion.

"Chase." Before Gu Mengyin could finish her words, she was already chasing him.

The paper man walked through the bustling streets and came to an inconspicuous ruined temple.

As soon as Mr. Li and others arrived outside the ruined temple, they heard the cry of a child coming from inside.

"Go in and have a look."

The official rushed into the dilapidated temple and found three frightened children inside the dilapidated statue.

The officer took the child out.

Several children were frightened and cried when they saw so many people.

Gu Mengyin stood aside and took the paper man back.

"Quickly contact the person who reported the crime today and ask them to see if these are their children."

"Yes."

When Lord Li looked at Gu Mengyin again, his eyes had lost the previous contempt, "I was rash just now, please don't blame me, Miss Gu."

Gu Mengyin raised her eyelids and said, "Now that you know that our Gu family has been slandered by others, you will not let go of those who slander us easily, right?"

Mr. Li said with a sneer: "Don't worry, eldest lady, I will definitely find out the truth and restore eldest lady's innocence."

The child was found, but Mr. Li still had many things to do, so he quickly left the ruined temple with his official servants.

"Grandma, let's go back too." Gu Wenque saw that Gu Mengyin was still standing still and stepped forward to say hello.

Gu Mengyin nodded. They had jogged all the way here just now, and now they could only walk back.

As soon as they reached the street, they heard the sound of a carriage behind them.

The vermilion carriage stopped in front of the two people.

A slender white finger opened the car curtain, revealing a handsome face that was as handsome as if it had been carved by a ghost father.

Yan Linyuan frowned slightly, but his voice was clear and indifferent, "Miss Gu, it's so early."

"Bai Ning, why is it you?" Gu Mengyin's eyes lit up, and she said that her heartbeat had inexplicably accelerated just now. It turned out that her true love was here.

"Just passing by."

"Then you'll give me a ride?"

"Okay, get in the car."

"The carriage is not big, so you can sit outside." Gu Mengyin got on the carriage neatly and closed the door directly to block Gu Wenque's gossipy eyes.

Gu Wenque could only sit with the coachman. He glanced sideways at the coachman and felt that he looked familiar.
