But she, like the other generals, believed that the commander had retaliated on behalf of the original Gu Family Army members.
The Marquis Residence was the power of the emperor, and naturally, she couldn't help them. Plus, they really did go too far.

He severely hurt Tang Ming in the name of martial arts challenge, and there was no way to resolve this peacefully.
"It was not for the Gu Family Army." Gu Jiao hesitated for a moment and then told the truth, "Tang Ming bullied Ayan, he kidnapped Ayan, locked him up... We searched for half a night before we found him. It was Gu Changqing who found him, barely missed…"
Barely missed what?
Gu Jiao did not continue.
