Gu Chengfeng felt like his heart had suffered a hundred thousand critical hits, and even spewing blood couldn't alleviate the symptoms. He wished he could tear himself apart, with liver and brains scattered all over!

He seriously meant it!

He wanted to rub himself against the ground to check if this was real. His sister and his grandfather had become sworn brothers... What did that make him then?

She said she came to the borderlands to save her sworn brother... Was she talking about his grandfather?

She really had a sworn brother!

Wait, she also mentioned some fool.

Gu Chengfeng choked. Terrified, he looked at his right arm, which he couldn't move, and then at Tang Yueshan, whose left leg was immobile.

The fool must be Tang Yueshan!

No room for argument!

Tang Yueshan looked at Gu Chengfeng, his brows furrowed.

Why is this brat looking at me so strangely?!

Meanwhile, in the adjacent room, Gu Changqing, witnessing the scene of the two people recognizing each other, was also on the verge of losing his composure.

He had known about this incident—when Old Marquis got completely drunk and became sworn brothers with Gu Jiao, he and Gu Yan were in the adjacent room, and he was the one who helped the unconscious Old Marquis onto his carriage back home.

Even so, he had thought it was just a playful act of a granddaughter. He had never expected this girl to get addicted to the play, recognizing their grandfather as her sworn brother even here in the borderlands!

Too mischievous...

Gu Changqing looked at his grandfather and Gu Jiao with a complicated expression. One dared to call and the other dared to respond.

Old Marquis was so excited to have reunited with his “little brother” that from the moment he saw Gu Jiao, there was no room for others in his eyes, and Gu Chengfeng, who was standing by, was utterly ignored!

Feeling disregarded by both his eldest brother and now his grandfather, Gu Chengfeng complained internally. He felt bitter in his heart, but he refused to say a word!

Afterward, Gu Jiao and Old Marquis chatted away as if no one else was present.

Old Marquis wiped away his tears, and then asked with contentment and emotion, "Little brother, how did you end up here at the borderlands?"

Gu Jiao took out her notebook, found a writing brush and swiftly wrote: ‘I came to rescue you.’

Old Marquis felt a surge of emotions, tears welling up in his eyes once again. His little brother was indeed incredibly loyal! He vowed to remember this favor forever, never to forget it!

Suddenly, a vague memory surfaced in his mind.

He remembered being thrown into a wine cellar with his limbs broken by the remnants of the previous dynasty in Lingguan City. It seemed like someone had come to rescue him.

"Was it you? Little brother? Did you rescue me from Lingguan City?" There seemed to be something else, but he couldn't recall.

Nevermind, things that couldn't be remembered were usually not important!

Gu Chengfeng: Grandfather, what about me! What about me! I went to save you too! Argh! Why do you only remember that stinky girl!

Gu Chengfeng was going crazy!

"It seems like we went to someone's house? Or was it a cave?" Old Marquis tried hard to search his memory. He felt like there was something more in his memory, but he still couldn't recall it.

Tang Yueshan: Well, even this Supreme Commander is forgotten! I even carried you from the cabin all the way into a cave, and my fingers got frostbite from carrying you!

"My injuries... were they treated by you, little brother?" Old Marquis' grat.i.tude and excitement were indescribable. He patted Gu Jiao's hand and choked up, "One of the two things I've done right in my life was establis.h.i.+ng the Gu Family Army, and the other was meeting you, little brother."

Gu Jiao squeezed his hand, nodding affectionately and solemnly!

Sworn brothers for life!

After that, Old Marquis also inquired about Gu Jiao's injuries. Learning that Gu Jiao was unharmed, he finally felt relieved.

Gu Chengfeng: Hold on, when eldest brother came in just now, you didn't even ask if he was injured!

While Old Marquis and Gu Jiao were chatting, new injured soldiers arrived in the courtyard. One of them accidentally fell from the sickbed, causing a secondary wound.

Gu Jiao swiftly wrote in her notebook: ‘I'll go take a look. I'll come talk to you later.’

Old Marquis nodded, "Little brother, go ahead and attend to your tasks."

His little brother was truly amazing, not only skilled in martial arts but also in medicine. The true embodiment of bravery, skillful hands, and compa.s.sionate heart!

Gu Jiao left the room.

Gu Chengfeng straightened up, feeling it was finally his turn!

He wanted his grandfather to see that he too was a valiant and brave lad defending the borders, and the wounds on his body were his most honorable medals!

He flashed a smile, "Grandfather!"

"Hoo~ Hoo~"

The response he received was a rhythmic series of snores.

Gu Chengfeng whose smile gradually froze: "..."

……

After the wooden wall collapsed, Advisor Hu of the Prefect's Mansion quickly arranged for a landscape screen to be brought in.

Old Marquis had fallen asleep, so he could only inform Tang Yueshan and the two brothers of the Gu Family in the other room, "Well, there's currently no carpenter available. Let’s use this screen to separate the s.p.a.ces for the time being."

Everyone was silent.

Advisor Hu: Er... Is someone not satisfied with this arrangement?

But he wasn't lying. All the carpenters in the city were conscripted to make and repair military equipment. There really was n.o.body available to repair the wall!

"Place it here." Gu Changqing said.

"Yes, yes!" Advisor Hu had the floor cleaned up and personally arranged the screen, "This humble one shall take his leave then."

"Mm." Gu Changqing nodded faintly.

Advisor Hu left feeling relieved.

Was it an illusion?

Why did the atmosphere in the room feel somewhat strange?

Tang Yueshan couldn't move his leg, so he lay back on the bed. Gu Chengfeng's leg was fine, but his arm was hurt. He was ordered by Gu Changqing to lie back on his own bed as well.

It was true that the atmosphere in the room at this moment was strange, not because of Gu Jiao and Old Marquis recognizing each other as sworn brothers, but because Gu Changqing and Gu Chengfeng both realized that Tang Yueshan had witnessed and heard everything that had happened today.

Including their mother's ident.i.ty as a spy.

What did this mean?

It meant that if Tang Yueshan leaked the information, it would immediately overturn the entire situation of the war.

The Gu Family Army wouldn’t fight for spies from the previous dynasty. If they find out that Gu Changqing was a descendant of a spy of the previous dynasty, they would rebel.

Gu Changqing said to Gu Chengfeng, “From now on, keep an eye on him. Don't let him have contact with anyone. I'll talk to JiaoJiao. From now on, all the physicians in this courtyard will be replaced with physicians from the Miraculous Hands Hall."

Gu Chengfeng sneered, "No need. That girl is going to mute him with poison!"

Gu Changqing paused and said, "Even if she mute him, he can still write."

Gu Chengfeng casually said, "Oh, then tell that girl later to get rid of his hands as well, in a way that’s not obvious."

Tang Yueshan's heart pounded!

How can you siblings be so ruthless?!

Also, when did I say I would leak the information?

Am I, Tang Yueshan, someone who disregards the overall situation?!

Could I shake the morale and military spirit of the soldiers on the border for a bit of credit!?

d.a.m.n it, I was planning to return triumphantly to the capital and quietly report the three of you as spies to Empress Dowager Zhuang and the Emperor!

Gu Changqing thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll handle this myself. I don't want to dirty JiaoJiao's hands."

He swiftly pulled out a dagger and approached Tang Yueshan.

Tang Yueshan's body shuddered!

Right at this moment, Gu Jiao finished the operation and returned to the room.
