Chapter 540 Life has no script, but everything is a script.

Gu Qingyue was in disguise; she didn't want to cause trouble along the way.

Liu Feng's cheerful and pleasant voice caused several old men in the carriage to lift the curtain and peek over.

What I saw was alarming – three old men nearly hit their heads on the train!

Isn't this Yang Hongchang's son, the one who managed river transport back in the day? No, no, no! His son wouldn't be this young now!

Who is that?

The three of them looked at each other from afar, watching Gu Qingyue and Liu Feng's figures.

The Yang family, who used to manage river transport at the Mo Pavilion, were wiped out, and Vice Pavilion Master Lu mobilized many people to investigate the truth.

But the whole family was dead, and there was absolutely no clue.

What is the relationship between this man and Yang Hongchang's son? How come they look so alike? Could he be Yang Hongchang's grandson?

"Shuyan," Old Master Lu said, "call Miss Gu San over here."

The three were extremely excited. If Yang Hongchang's grandson was still alive, did that mean the entire Yang family hadn't been wiped out back then? And that there was still a lineage?

A short while later, Gu Qingyue rode her horse to the carriage.

"Old Lu, Old Feng? Is something the matter?" The three old men were very casual along the way and did not have any special requests because of their age.

Gu Qingyue was quite curious: now that they were at the gates of Lizhou City, what did Old Lu want to say to her?

"Qingyue, what's the name of the young man you were talking to just now? Who is he?" Old Lu gripped the carriage window tightly, asking urgently.

"You mean... my senior brother? His name is Liu Feng, he's my senior brother."

Upon hearing this, the three looked at each other in bewilderment. Was this not a child of the Yang family?

"Is this his only name?" Old Feng pressed.

Gu Qingyue wanted to facepalm. A person is just a name, isn't he?

"Could it really not be a child of the Yang family?" Old Lu slumped his shoulders and muttered to himself.

Gu Qingyue naturally heard it, and her heart tightened. Senior Brother Liu Feng's original surname was indeed Yang!

Do these three old men know his home?

She paused for a moment, then said, "Old Lu, let's go into the city first, and we can talk when we get back."

The three of them looked at Gu Qingyue's expression, which seemed to want to say something but hesitated, and nodded.

Indeed, it's inconvenient to be at the city gate right now; we'll talk about it when we get back.

When they returned to the Gu residence, they learned that Rong Qingqing had taken Yue Ran and the others to the Moon Shadow Pavilion base in the mountains and was not there. However, according to Liu Yong, Rong Qingqing had been gone for half a month and would be back soon.

Gu Qingyue recalled that when she returned to the capital, she entrusted Rong Qingqing with all matters, including the lives of the young men at Wenxianglou and Yueyingge. She must have been exhausted.

She glanced at Zhang Xubai, who had just settled into his seat in the main hall, and felt even more guilty.

"Go and prepare dinner for everyone. Just have Wenxianglou send it over."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yong quickly went down to make the arrangements.

Everyone was indeed exhausted. Gu Qingyue told them to go wash up and rest, and that dinner would be brought to their rooms later. She said they could talk about anything else tomorrow. Only then did she send Qin Fang and the others away.

She personally led Gu Changling to the house that had been prepared for him, along with Gu Yuanen. Everything was in perfect order, clean and comfortable. It seemed that it was arranged by his senior brother Liu Feng. He must have worked very hard.

After settling Gu Changling and Gu Yuanen, Gu Qingyue returned to the front courtyard, where she had many things to arrange with her senior brother Liu Feng.

Now that we're back in Lizhou, we need to take care of the business at Yueying Pavilion, Wenxiang Tower, and Yulouchun.

Before she even returned to the main hall, Gu Qingyue saw Liu Feng leading Zhu Qing and Cui Shuming rushing over from the backyard.

"Master! Are you alright?"

Zhu Qing's voice was tinged with tears, and Cui Shuming's eyes were filled with worry.

"Yes, it's alright," Gu Qingyue nodded. She was naturally happy to see the two of them, especially since they had gone to Jiangnan on her behalf and faced many dangers. Seeing them unharmed made her feel much more at ease.

"Junior sister, everything has been arranged for you to stay, and someone is preparing water for washing up," Liu Feng said immediately when he saw Gu Qingyue.

Two days ago, Gu Qingyue sent a message back saying that she was going to bring a lot of people back to the Gu residence and asked him to prepare a place to stay as soon as possible.

He was at the Moon Shadow Pavilion outpost outside the city managing order taking when he rushed back immediately.

He, Cui Shuming, and Zhu Qing finished tidying up early this morning. Rong Qingqing went to the Moon Shadow Pavilion base. If he hadn't come, there really wouldn't have been anyone to take care of these things.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, senior brother."

As they walked and talked, Cui Shuming also reported to Gu Qingyue on some things that happened on the way to Jiangnan.

Gu Qingyue's eyes turned cold upon hearing this.

As for the Holy Maiden's people, the Wizard's Temple is definitely going to fall this time, and the Holy Maiden herself was killed by her own hands.

What upset her was that Prince Jing, Mu Yun Jing, had actually attacked her and was also planning to attack Mu Yun Chu in Nan Zhao, which made her very unhappy!

Prince Jing, is it? I'll settle the score with you when we get back to the capital!

Upon arriving at the main hall, Liu Yong was surprised to find three old men sitting upright and formally, ignoring the prepared courtyard. Standing at the entrance of the main hall, Liu Yong felt somewhat lost.

After a moment's thought, Gu Qingyue understood; it must be about Senior Brother Liu Feng.

She gestured for Zhu Qing and Cui Shuming to stay at the door, and went inside with Liu Feng.

"Old Lu, why didn't you go to rest?"

Gu Qingyue sat down in the chair opposite the three of them and asked.

“We want to meet your senior brother,” said Old Lu without mincing words; he had always been a straightforward and easygoing person.

Liu Feng had been curiously observing the three old men since he entered the Gu residence, because he had sensed their scrutiny of him since he first entered the house, and now they were looking at him again.

Who are they?

Liu Feng looked at the three gray-haired old men and was still completely bewildered.

"Is your surname Liu? Or Yang?" Doctor Chai narrowed his eyes, looked at Liu Feng, and asked.

Liu Feng was taken aback, and clenched his fist. "Who are you people? How do you know my surname is Yang?"

Seeing Liu Feng looking at everyone cautiously, Gu Qingyue spoke up, "Senior brother, they are Elder Lu, Elder Feng, and Doctor Chai."

"You, you really are surnamed Yang? Do you know Yang Hongchang?" Before Old Lu could speak, Old Feng became excited.

It was a quarter of an hour later when Gu Qingyue came out of the main hall.

She was a little dazed; she realized that life has no script, but everything is a script.

Brother Liu's family were originally from the Moge family; Yang Hongchang was his grandfather.

His grandfather was in charge of river transport and docks at the Ink Pavilion, but his entire family was wiped out, leaving only Senior Brother Liu Feng, who was rescued by his master and later came to her Moon Shadow Pavilion.

She also took the opportunity to ask Mr. Lu and the others about Jin Weizhou's grandfather.

As expected, his grandfather, Mr. Jin, who was Lu Lao's strategist back then, also disappeared.

Gu Qingyue rubbed her forehead. Unbeknownst to her, she had already begun to recruit people from the Ink Pavilion. Well, she hadn't done it on purpose.

Leaving her senior brother and the three old men talking in the main hall, Gu Qingyue led Zhu Qing and Cui Shuming back to her own courtyard.
