Chapter 175: Not Letting Even the Dogs Off
Before the Beijing nobility could make any moves, Xi Yang secretly arrived at their homes.
Without much effort, Xi Yang found the kitchen.
After adding the laxative and aphrodisiac to the water缸 at the same time, Xi Yang paused and then sprinkled the sleep aid he was holding into it.
Afterwards, he left, concealing his功劳 and name, unnoticed by anyone.
With this operation, he quickly circled through the capital. When the sky gradually darkened, Xi Yang finally completed the task of adding to the last household’s water缸.
Seeing the clear and transparent water in the water缸, Xi Yang smiled with relief, then happily clapped his hands and immediately rushed back to the Gu Residence.
Gu Yu was waiting for a reply!
“Did you put something in all of them?”
“Yes, several things! I guarantee they won’t be able to sleep tonight~”
“That’s good! For these guys daring to cause trouble at the Gu Residence, I’ll make sure they remember the lesson clearly!”
When Gu Yu saw Xi Yang return, he immediately asked.
Upon receiving a satisfactory answer, Gu Yu smiled slightly, thinking that he could watch the excitement later.
Xi Yang had been given quite a bit of medicinal powder before, which should make these people ‘happy’ and give them a memorable night.
“Laoda, should we continue tomorrow?”
“Continue! Let them know that pain comes in various forms, and it’s not something that can be ended with just one or two things.”
“Alright.”
Watching Xi Yang’s retreating back, Gu Yu secretly pondered how to maximize his own benefits from this matter.
Although the medicinal powder had been administered, Bai Qian would quickly discover this and order it to stop.
However, even Bai Qian could not make Gu Yu suffer a loss.
No one could make him suffer a loss.
Of course, the little wife was an exception.
By predicting the future developments, Gu Yu was also thinking about how to put himself in the most advantageous position.
Although he couldn’t suffer a loss, he also couldn’t displease Bai Qian. Instead, he needed to strike a balance to avoid being given a hard time by Bai Qian in the future.
This time, it wasn’t just the Beijing nobility who would learn their lesson, but also their parents.
Without much difficulty, it could be traced back that everything was Gu Yu’s doing.
Of course, this was Gu Yu’s ultimate goal.
It wasn’t worth doing this just to deal with these Beijing nobles, but Gu Yu wanted to cut the grass and eliminate the roots.
Here, cutting the grass and eliminating the roots did not mean killing them.
It meant making the people of the capital know that no matter who they dealt with, they could not target the Gu family.
Let them remember it in one go.
Thinking of these things, Gu Yu’s lips curved upwards slightly, feeling that he was too merciful.
He had actually spared these people’s lives…
…
“Oh my, why is my stomach hurting so much!”
“Heavens, I’m going to explode.”
“Old Liu, you look especially beautiful today!”
“So itchy, so itchy.”
“This is truly disgusting, why are you sleeping while you’re pooping!!!”
This night was destined to be sleepless.
Many mansions in the capital were brightly lit, with people groaning in pain. The combined noise made even the neighbors unable to sleep.
They didn’t know what was happening, why it was so noisy!
And it was disturbing their sleep!
While others were thinking this, the people in the mansions had no way to express their suffering, enduring waves of indescribable pain and fighting for the use of the latrines.
Some even pooped in their pants.
This turned their faces pale and green, and they wished they could just disappear into a crack in the ground if one appeared.
Too embarrassing!
In addition, due to the aphrodisiac, some people were acting crazily in the mansion, not even letting the dogs off.
When they were caught afterwards, they inevitably received a beating.
Thus, after a night of severe turmoil, when dawn was breaking, everyone finally stopped feeling the pain.
However, the sequelae that followed made everyone miserable, not knowing what had happened to them.
How did they suddenly become like this…
Even after seeing a doctor, no symptoms could be diagnosed, and they were told to rest at home and avoid spicy and irritating food.
After this series of events, because many ministers were affected, a large number of them were absent from the morning court.
They all took leave from Bai Qian, citing indisposition.
“Gu Yu, isn’t it strange? How did so many ministers get affected overnight!”
“Perhaps it’s because they’ve been wicked for too long. Good people like us won’t have any problems, while others have done too many bad things and have thus invited evil things.”
“Haha, you say that… But, there are indeed a few guys I usually can’t stand, and seeing them in trouble makes me feel relieved.”
After returning home from the morning court, when Gu Qing encountered Gu Yu strolling, he immediately told him about the many ministers who were absent from court.
Upon hearing Gu Yu’s reply, Gu Qing laughed heartily, thinking that his son-in-law was truly a remarkable person.
If others heard about this, they would definitely analyze it seriously and wonder how these people were affected.
But Gu Yu was not like that.
This uniqueness was exactly to Gu Qing’s taste.
Little did he know that the instigator of this matter was Gu Yu!
As someone who knew everything, Gu Yu naturally wouldn’t be too curious. This “chance encounter” with Gu Qing after court was also Gu Yu’s way of inquiring about the situation.
Having already obtained the information he wanted, Gu Yu smiled and sent off his father-in-law, then immediately found Xi Yang to continue with the next phase.
Yesterday was indiscriminate drugging, but today it wouldn’t be.
The troubles caused by those Beijing nobles naturally had to be borne by them.
“Laoda, what kind of medicine should I use this time?”
“This time it’s a bit difficult. See this pill? It’s a big gift I’m giving to those nobles’ children. I hope they can withstand the power of the pill.”
“???”
“This pill can make people go mad and become foolish! Its effect is just a bit short, and they will recover within three days.”
“…”
After Xi Yang accepted the mission, he felt great sympathy for these nobles’ children.
Thinking about who they had to provoke, they had to provoke Gu Yu.
Now, it was over for them.
Although Gu Yu said it lightly, Xi Yang felt that it wouldn’t be that simple.
Before, it was medicinal powder, but now it was suddenly pills, and he felt the effect would be even more potent…
Thinking of these things, Xi Yang bid farewell to Gu Yu and then set off with the pills for their deployment.
Because he had already locked onto the appearances of the Beijing nobles’ children before, finding the target individuals this time was not a difficult task.
Moreover, the fact that everyone had not slept all night made this deployment even smoother.
After Xi Yang had finished deploying all the pills, he turned and looked at the houses behind him, silently mourning for them in his heart.
Good luck to themselves!
And now, he was going to find Xiao Hong to be affectionate with!
