Gu Jin'an was somewhat worried, and privately said to Gu Jinli, "There must be someone in the Lu Family line who ranks higher than Master Hu, and I suspect that person wants to keep Xia Gu safe."
After all, despite being sinister and vicious, Xia Gu is renowned throughout Great Chu as a Madman; his act of submitting a blank script during the Imperial Examination and publically slapping the face of Great Chu's first Emperor could be boasted about for a lifetime, and even recorded in history books.
Gu Jinli, however, disagreed, "It's best for Master Hu to be on our side, otherwise the Lu Family line will regret sending Xia Gu to tutor Brother Cheng."
Poisoning, anonymous denunciation, even if it can't completely wipe out the Lu Family, it is enough to deprive them of any chance to strike back at Great Chu.
Don't think she wouldn't dare to do so; the Lu Family didn't care for her mother, and her family owes nothing to the Lu Family, nor do they have any affection towards them.
