As we approached Majia Village and entered the country road, the horse's hooves were quite anxious. Gu Qingci tied the reins and slowly dismounted the horse. Only then did he realize that at some point, the spring was already full of spring, and the pink and tender flowers were endless. Now the most prosperous season is the apricot blossoms, but the peach blossoms came late, but they only started to slap branches and never bloomed.

The sun was just right, but Gu Qingci felt a little heavy. When he remembered the situation of the Ma family yesterday, he felt a little uncomfortable. He raised his head, looked at the small courtyard that was getting closer and closer, took a deep breath, and walked slowly over.

As soon as I arrived at the intersection, I suddenly saw a group of people walking over in a hurry. There were two people in front of me who seemed to be injured and were carried away. When I was close, Gu Qingci was sure that someone was injured.

The smell of blood is very strong, and he has been very sensitive to this smell since Changling County.

He gently pulled the big dark horse and made way for the hurriedly. The group came over and saw Gu Qingci's actions, an old man hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome," Gu Qingci shook his head slightly and said, "Treatment is important!"

The old man hurriedly bowed his hand and the group quickly left.

Gu Qingci looked at the backs of those people and was a little confused. He just looked at it and found that the wounds of the two were obviously cut by knife wounds, which was not very similar to those caused by a fight and conflict between neighbors. The wound was very particular, and it hurt the flesh and not bones, but it could successfully destroy the combat power of a person and not be disabled. This is not something that ordinary people can do. They must be a good knife.

Putting aside his doubts, Gu Qingci tied the horse and entered Ma Shilian's house. He saw the white cloth under the eaves in front of the door at a glance. He thought he was already dealing with the funeral.

Going to the lobby, as soon as Gu Qingci arrived at the door, he heard Yan Bo’s voice: “Don’t worry, Lord Gu will come later. As long as he is here, everything can be solved. Don’t worry!”

Gu Qingci frowned, walked in, and said in confusion: "Brother Yan, what happened?"

Just in time, everyone is there.

Ma Yu and Ma Lian'er heard Gu Qingci's voice and quickly turned around. Ma Yu Ju Li said, "The undead Ma Yu has seen Mr. Gu!"

Gu Qingci hurriedly held the ritual and said, "Qingci has met his sister-in-law, but his sister-in-law doesn't have to be too polite."

Ma Lian'er lowered her head and said timidly: "Young Master Gu, Lian'er was reckless yesterday, I hope you will forgive me!"

"It's okay," Gu Qingci said, "I have the same brothers and sisters as Shilian. If I don't mind, I can treat me as my elder brother."

Ma Lian'er nodded and shouted softly: "Brother Gu!"

Gu Qingci also replied with a word "Li Er girl" and asked Uncle Yan: "Uncle Yan, what happened just now? I met a group of people outside, and I was still hurt."

Uncle Yan hurriedly told Gu Qingci what had happened before, and finally said with some confusion: "Master Ma was a juren at the time, and I don't know how these people dared to do this?"

After hearing what happened, Gu Qingci gently poked out his right hand, touched the Jade Bone Sword, and said coldly: "When I first met Shilian, I was in the capital. At that time, he was appreciated by Master Tixue and restored his fame. After that, he went directly to Changling County with me and didn't have time to return to his hometown... But I never expected that the people in Majia Village were so cold-hearted!"

Speaking of this, Gu Qingci took a deep breath and said with guilt: "At the beginning, Shilian thought that he could win a good future with me, but after arriving in Changling County, I didn't give him anything, but he never left me. Later... I thought I was self-righteous and promised him wealth, but in the end it became empty talk!"

"Haha..." Gu Qingci turned around and walked out the door and said softly: "Now, Shilian has gone. I can't repay his love anymore. How can I watch his family be bullied? These people are killed. A hero who has been in the battlefield for his family and country. His widow should not be humiliated!"

Gu Qingci was very angry and he wanted to kill someone!

He can't give it to Ma Shilian if he owe him his life's glory.

However, Ma Shilian’s blood relatives can no longer be bullied. They should live upright and enjoy the honor left by Ma Shilian!

"The honor of a national hero should be the surplus of the World League, and protect his family for the rest of their lives!"

The snow-white jade bone sword was unsheathed, and a touch of cold murderous aura evoked in the air, as if it was about to break through the blue sky. Under the sunlight, it became blood-colored, as if it was about to capture the soul and kill the death!

"Master Gu, Master Gu," Yan Bo hurriedly ran out to stop Gu Qingci and said, "Sir, don't be impulsive. This is Jizhou, not like Changling County. In Changling County, you have a life and death. That is based on local conditions and the court pardons, but it is different here. Killing people casually will cause trouble."

Gu Qingci naturally knew this truth. This place is different from the place where the imperial power is relaxed in Changling County, but he couldn't bear it. He just wanted to let Ma Shilian know, so don't leave any regrets or blame him.

When Yan Bo stopped him, Gu Qingci's eyes were cold and he said, "Did you let me watch and stay indifferent?"

"Oh," Yan Bo slapped his forehead and said, "My lord, if I want to do this, why should I fight with those people with a knife? I just want to protect his widow for Lord Ma!"

"Then you still stop me?"

"Oh," Uncle Yan suddenly sighed. He realized that Lord Gu is not like a man in the officialdom, but more like a knight who has just come out of the world. His murderous nature is also scary. He shook his head and said, "Sir, don't expect it. You are an official. This time you enter Beijing, you can at least enter the Censorate. Moreover, Lord Ma is a hero who died in the battlefield. My Daxia treats them with preferential treatment."

"You can deal with this matter by just using the law. Moreover, after you enter Beijing, Lord Ma will also come down. At that time, who dares to bully their family? But if you are impulsive, who will help Lord Ma ask for a reward?"

"Uh..." Gu Qingci was stunned for a moment, took back the Jade Bone Sword, nodded, and said, "Okay, I will finish the funeral of Shilian first, and then I will go to the prefect's office!"

Gu Qingci withdrew his sword and followed Uncle Yan back.

Gu Qingci looked at the family in front of the coffin, took a deep breath, and said, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, Shilian's death has a lot to do with me. I'm sorry for him. Don't worry, as long as I, Gu Qingci, will..."

"Young Master Gu," Ma Yu's eyes were still tearful and he said sobbingly: "You can't blame you. My husband sacrificed his life to defend his country. He died as a good person. It is not in vain that he is full of righteousness in his literati. We can't blame you."

"As long as I, Gu Qingci, stay in your house forever, my sword will always be there!"

…………

Because Ma Yu was really disappointed with the Ma family, he did not invite anyone. Although it was a funeral, it was very deserted. The only thing was that Gu Qingci picked up his pen and wrote two elegiac couplets.
