At the palace banquet, Shen Qingyi broke off the engagement in public, blaming Gu Chengji for being vulgar and murderous, and unworthy of the eyes of a noble lady in the capital.
Gu Chengji didn't explain, he just threw out a banned drug ledger and tore apart the Shen family's dignity on the spot.
But he soon discovered that breaking off the engagement was not a humiliation, but the first thing that held him back.
Urgent report from Shuofang: Yunchuan Fort has been lost, the grain route has been blocked, and there is another hidden reason behind the death of the old marquis.
Gu Chengji returned to the border overnight to check the old seals, seize the granary, kill the ghost, and obtain the Wolf Fang Order.
The Shen family is hiding old accounts from seven years ago, the outer treasury of the Duke of Jingguo has reached into Shuofang's military rations, and someone in Chang'an wants to reduce the military power of the Gu family.
They thought that without the old Marquis in the Gu family, the Border Marquis Mansion should bow its head.
However, Gu Chengji found out the old case of Chiyan Valley from Shuofang Liang Road, and calculated the lives of 3,726 border soldiers back to Chang'an.
