Chapter 234: The Hou Mansion Trap
After hearing that the coral was poisoned, I saw Gu Ruoyi standing behind Gu Xianyi at some point, and Gu Shuyi moved away silently, Gu Xiuyi was used to not hiding herself, grabbed her nose, bent over and coughed repeatedly.
It's as if coughing can cough out poison.
Seeing this situation, Lang Zhong knew that his words were serious, and added another sentence: "This poison must be smelled all the time, and it can only be poisoned in two days. And because the coral is placed outdoors, and the wind blows it for a long time, you don't have much poison to inhale it, but if you put it indoors..."
Gu Xianyi asked anxiously, "How about putting it indoors?"
"If you don't ventilate often, there will be poisonous gas in the room, and you may die of poison in two days after smelling it for a long time. ”
Suddenly, Yang Ruihai remembered that when King Ye ordered Wen Zhongqiu to give him coral, Wen Zhongqiu said mysteriously: "I know that the prince of the world is rare this thing, His Royal Highness said, whether it is placed in your study or inner room, it is the most worthy of your identity!"
In front of this sentence, it seemed to be an unintentional remark, but now that he thinks about it, it makes Yang Ruihai break out in a cold sweat.
Could it be that the king of karma wants to harm him?
Why did you want to hurt him?
Because of his suspicion and anger, his two eyebrows were almost twisted together, and his heart was in a mess.
He thinks that he is diligent and diligent to King Ye, although he has not been in his camp for a long time, he has also done several things for him, and recently he has been trying to win over courtiers for King Ye, why did King Ye suddenly want to kill him?
He really couldn't figure it out!
Lang Zhong retreated, and the coral was also withdrawn, Yang Ruihai had no intention of making a few sisters-in-law happy, so he returned to the room. No one knew what he was thinking, but Gu Xiangyi could guess a little.
Since you want to use Yang Ruihai, it is natural to understand his personality and understand his character.
Once at the beginning of Ning, Yang Ruihai's father, Dongping Hou, once asked the Ning family for marriage, but was rejected by Ning Yuanjiang. The reason is very simple, Yang Ruihai seems to be shrewd, but in fact he is a tendon, and he is easy to get angry and easy to be picked upon.
He is not afraid of heaven and earth, and he is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, how can such a person marry Ning Chu? If his daughter is wronged, how can Ning Yuanjiang stand up for his daughter? If Yang Ruihai forces Ning Chu to retire, it will be bad!
So at the beginning, Ning Yuanjiang kicked Yang Ruihai out of the son-in-law candidate.
Yi Jingxiao is not familiar with the son of the Marquis of Dongping, he only knows that the heirs of the Yang family are difficult, starting from the previous generation of the Marquis of Dongping, the old marquis has one wife, five ladies, and countless remaining rooms, but only the old marquis who was born by a lady is really born. And the same is true of today's Hou Ye, who didn't have his first son until he was twenty-five years old, that is, the current Yang Ruihai.
Now Yang Ruihai is also in his early twenties, but his wife and concubine have no children, which is very strange.
Not to mention anything else, Gu Hengjun even has a wife and a concubine, and there are nine sons and daughters, this is the number of children a normal man should have! Even Pei Yan, who has always been expressionless and doesn't like to talk, has three children.
So why is it so difficult for the Yang family to have such a difficult heir? Isn't it from generation to generation, passing down this problem?
What Yi Jingxiao said was actually not directly related to Gu Xiangyi's calculation of Yang Ruihai today, but it seemed to wake up Gu Xiangyi in the dark.
Originally, he wanted to make a few sisters jealous, but he didn't want to mess up, Gu Xianyi was angry, and she didn't have time to entertain a few younger sisters.
She spread her hands and said, "I ordered someone to clean up a few guest rooms, and the younger sisters should go and rest separately." ”
In order to avoid suspicion, several guest rooms are next to each other, but Gu Xianyi must separate everyone in order to succeed.
So she glanced at Gu Ruoyi, Gu Ruoyi suddenly remembered what the eldest sister had told her before, and hurriedly grabbed Gu Xianyi's arm and said, "I haven't been here for a long time, I have to get together with the eldest sister today!
called everyone up, but only Gu Xiangyi was left.
Gu Xiangyi didn't want to go with her, she also wanted to see what the hell Gu Xianyi was going to do.
She asked directly, "What about the sixth sister?"
Gu Ruoyi didn't bother to pretend, and replied: "I don't agree with your sixth sister, everyone knows, I'm too lazy to look for her, I'll leave if she's there! Eighth sister, it's my eldest sister who invited you today, you think clearly!"
Her meaning is clear, she wants Gu Xiuyi to choose between Gu Xianyi and Gu Xiangyi.
People had to bow their heads under the eaves, and besides, Gu Xiuyi didn't have a good impression of this sixth sister, and the two of them had a weak relationship. And Gu Xiangyi just got what she couldn't get and couldn't get, which made her even more unhappy.
So she suddenly turned to Gu Ruoyi's side, and flattered: "Then naturally follow the big sister! Fifth sister, let's go." ”
Gu Xianyi smiled apologetically, and said to Gu Xiangyi: "Then the sixth sister go to rest, and I will order someone to send the fruit later." ”
"Big sister's kindness, sister understands. "Gu Xiangyi behaved very docilely, and the docility was a little abnormal.
The two maids from the Dongping Marquis Mansion guided Gu Xiangyi to a guest house, where several side rooms were connected together, very quiet.
Walking in, following the maid to the room, Gu Xiangyi said with a faint smile: "Thank you for your hard work, go down." ”
The maid said, "The girl has a good rest, and if there is something to call the slave and maid." ”
Gu Xiangyi glanced at her deeply, the smile on the corner of her mouth seemed to be nothing, and she only said, "I know, I feel light, you are not allowed to disturb me." ”
"Yes, girl. The maid bowed lightly, turned and walked away.
Closing the door and looking carefully, Gu Xiangyi focused on the things on the low table next to the couch. There was incense burning in the green jade smoker on the low table, it could be seen that it had just been ordered not long ago, and Gu Xianyi didn't expect the 'show off' conference to end so soon, so before Gu Xiangyi entered this room, he hurriedly asked people to light incense.
Smoke curls up from the perforated lid and slowly dissipates through the room.
Gu Xiangyi picked up the green jade smoker, simply pushed open the window, threw the smoker out, and then sat on the couch, listening carefully to the movement outside.
About two cups of tea, there was a figure outside the door, looking at the image of the person who was the maid who brought her to rest. After the maid came over, Gu Xiangyi immediately fell on the couch alertly, pretending to be asleep, the maid opened the door a crack, and saw her disappear outside the door after sleeping.
Then, footsteps came, and it didn't sound like a person yet.
