The action of maliciously wounding someone in a formal competition should be dealt with according to military regulations, especially for a Commandant like Gu Changqing. After all, what would the soldiers think if the Commandant took the lead in doing such a thing?
This was the most irrational Gu Changqing had ever been.
At least in the eyes of Old Marquis.
It was just that they were in front of outsiders, so Old Marquis couldn’t reprimand Gu Changqing as he wanted. He could only give Gu Changqing a deep look, "Come down!"
Gu Changqing walked slowly to the wall where the scabbard was embedded deeply and pulled it out.
Tang Yueshan was following his movements and saw this scene, his brows furrowing.
He already had such profound martial arts at the age of early twenties...
After Gu Changqing took the scabbard, everyone thought he would obediently follow Old Marquis and leave.
At this moment, Tang Yueshan had just helped Tang Ming, who was covered in blood, to sit up and intended to carry him down, when suddenly a fierce glint of a sword flashed over.
Everything happened so fast that everyone failed to see what was going on. They only witnessed the unconscious Tang Ming wake up in pain, and along with an agonizing scream, one of his arms flew out!
Warm blood splashed on Tang Yueshan's face, making Tang Yueshan stunned on the spot!
The next second, Tang Yueshan reacted and threw Gu Changqing a palm strike!
The powerful internal force was as real as a solid object, and with irresistible force, Gu Changqing was sent flying out of the ring!
This scene greatly shocked everyone, even Old Marquis didn't expect his grandson to do such a thing!
Marquis Xuanping raised an eyebrow, "Yo, your grandson has some balls."
Old Marquis glared at Marquis Xuanping!
Tang Ming wailed in pain.
Tang Yueshan exploded in fury. After pressing Tang Ming's acupuncture points to stop the bleeding, his bloodshot eyes darted towards Gu Changqing.
He was going to kill Gu Changqing!
Gu Changqing, who was hit by a palm strike, had already fallen to the ground, his chest aching and a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Old Marquis’s expression changed at once. He quickly stepped in front of Gu Changqing, raised his hand and took on Tang Yueshan's attack!
Tang Yueshan's palm strike was filled with killing intent. Old Marquis was forced back several steps and his breath was in a mess. It was conceivable how serious the consequences would have been if Gu Changqing was hit by this attack.
Tang Yueshan said in a thunderous rage, "He dared to do this in front of me, if I don't get rid of him today, this enmity in my heart won’t ever be settled! Get out of the way, otherwise this commander will kill you both together!"
Old Marquis certainly knew that Tang Yueshan wasn’t just trying to scare him. Tang Yueshan had no sons, and Tang Ming, as his only nephew, was the one he held in the palm of his hand since childhood.
He was no different from his own son.
Now that Tang Ming had his arm cut off by Gu Changqing in front of him, how could he possibly swallow this hatred?
Marquis Xuanping spoke slowly, "Lord Tang, this is a military camp. I don’t think it’s good for you to kill someone in the military camp, right?"
That’s right. Gu Changqing had violated the military discipline, but if Tang Yueshan also killed Gu Changqing, then he would be in the same situation as Gu Changqing.
He had just been appointed as the National Supreme Commander, and many pairs of eyes were watching him. He could take advantage of his authority to bend the law for personal gain, but he could not kill an heir of a Marquis Estate in public.
Tang Yueshan clenched his fists so much it crackled. He gave Gu Changqing a murderous look and said through gritted teeth, "Somebody, send Commandant Gu to the torture chamber! Later, this commander will personally interrogate him!"
"Yes!"
Two guards took away Gu Changqing's sword and brought Gu Changqing to the torture chamber of the camp.
Tang Yueshan left with Tang Ming, who had fainted once again. When he passed by Old Marquis, he said coldly, "He harmed Ming’er, this commander won't let him off!"
Old Marquis cupped his hands faintly, saying, "I won't let anyone accuse my grandson wrongly either!"
This was to tell Tang Yueshan that he shouldn’t even think about doing any maneuvering during the interrogation process.
After Tang Yueshan left, Old Marquis turned to face Marquis Xuanping. He no longer held any official position and couldn’t interfere with the affairs of the military camp.
Marquis Xuanping waved his hand, "I understand. This Marquis will be present during the interrogation, but you'd better find out if Commandant Gu has unspeakable difficulties."
Old Marquis, "I will."
In a moment, Marquis Xuanping also left.
After thinking about it, Old Marquis turned and went to the torture chamber.
The torture chamber of the military camp wasn’t like a prison cell, but more like a darkroom with nothing in it but a straw mat.
Marquis Xuanping had already talked to the guards of the torture chamber and instructed them to allow Old Marquis’s visit to Gu Changqing.
Old Marquis was able to enter the torture chamber without incident.
Among the people in the military camp, Tang Ming was definitely a favored young master, but wasn’t Gu Changqing the same? He was more outstanding, more law-abiding, and more respectable than Tang Ming even.
Today, however, the man who had never made a mistake had been convicted and imprisoned in the torture chamber. Old Marquis had very mixed feelings.
"Get down on your knees." Old Marquis said.
Gu Changqing lifted the hem of his robe and knelt down with a straight face.
Gu Changqing had always been like this. His personality had never been warm. But somehow, Old Marquis felt that after he returned to the capital, there was an invisible barrier and distance between him and Gu Changqing.
Even when he knelt right now, he seemed obedient on the surface but there was a hint of silent rebellion.
Old Marquis knit his eyebrows into a frown as his suspicious eyes observed Gu Changqing. Finally, he asked about what happened in the military camp, "Why are you so impulsive? Who gave you the courage to harm Tang Ming in front of so many people? If it hadn't been for Marquis Xuanping’s intervention, you would have been killed by Tang Yueshan today!"
Gu Changqing didn't speak and just hung his eyes low, looking at the cold ground with his seemingly empty eyes.
"Tell me honestly, what on earth is the reason? Is it really because Tang Ming treated the former Gu Family Army harshly?"
This was the grandson brought up by Old Marquis himself. Old Marquis still knew what kind of character he had. Gu Changqing had sentiments for the Gu Family Army that he couldn't let go of. Even though he had never really been a part of the Gu Family Army before, he had been exposed to them since childhood and had long regarded himself as a part of the Gu Family Army.
Old Marquis still remembered that when he handed over his military power and allowed the Gu Family Army to fall into the hands of others, Gu Changqing secretly cried in his room.
At that time, Gu Changqing was just a youth.Raz P.'s Thoughts
