Chapter 21: The Stratagem Fails
In just one afternoon, rumors spread throughout the province. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAlthough the rules of the house are strict, you can still see the servants in the house talking to each other.
Guo Lingfei saw Ji Xuan once in the afternoon.
Ji Xuan was still happy, and he threw himself into Guo Lingfei's arms as if flying, and muttered coquettishly: "Brother, why did it take so long to see Xuan Xuan!" ”
"Okay, my little sister, it's all my brother's fault, next time my brother will send you a beautiful kite and take you outside to fly a kite, okay?" Guo Lingfei smiled and patted his sister's back.
"Okay, brother, Xuan Xuan is looking forward to it! It's just ......" Ji Xuan paused.
"But what?" Guo Lingfei felt strange.
"Brother, I don't know if Xuan Xuan is too sensitive, I always feel that the servants in the house are weird, peeking at Xuan Xuan from time to time, and constantly whispering. That's right, today, the eldest sisters and the sisters also took the servants to push Xuan Xuan and scolded Xuan Xuan, saying that Xuan Xuan's departure from the mansion would only tarnish the reputation of the mansion. Ji Xuan said very aggrieved, and his eyes were red.
"It's okay, Xuan Xuan, it's because they're too weird, it's none of Xuan Xuan's business." Guo Lingfei didn't feel good in his heart, so he could only comfort Ji Xuan with all his might.
The next day, Guo Lingfei went to ask his marquis for peace.
Before he reached the door of the study, he heard the voice of the whip and the cursing of his marquis.
"Slut, you are proud, you think that Zi Jixuan doesn't have to marry like this."
"Slut, you eat me, use me, you don't know what I think, don't pretend to be garlic for me!"
……
The leather whip sounded "ho-ho-ho-ho-ho", and the cursing of the marquis did not stop. Hearing this, Guo Lingfei trembled with fear.
"Father, here comes the child!" Guo Lingfei deliberately raised his voice and said.
"Come in!" Jihou's voice couldn't hide his anger, and he said in a deep voice.
As soon as Guo Lingfei entered the door, he saw a woman prostrate on the ground.
She wears a purple cross-dressing shirt with matching shorts. The clothes on his body had been torn apart by whipping, and the silk inside had been exposed, and the blood slowly oozed out, staining the white underwear red. The hair was messy, and the golden step shook off to the ground, shattering in half.
She lay motionless on the ground, as if she had lost her breath. It's just that the body rises and falls from time to time, as if it breathes hard, and it seems like trying to endure pain.
The woman turned her head slowly, her body trembling. The delicate face was unusually pale, her lips were bloodless, and sweat slid down her forehead and cheeks.
That was the Seventh Lady, Ji Xuan's mother.
"Father, what's wrong?" Guo Lingfei tried his best to hide the tremor of his voice, and tried his best to suppress the shock in his heart.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that this slut actually found someone to spread rumors about your sister Ji Xuan. What's the matter with you! Jihou asked.
"It's nothing, just say goodbye." Guo Lingfei said.
"It's nothing, you just step down." Jihou was expressionless.
"Father, it's actually my ......" Guo Lingfei wanted to say that she came up with the idea, but she didn't have time to say it yet.
The seventh lady interrupted, hugged her marquis's legs, and said in a trembling voice: "Master, this idea is indeed a concubine, please let the master let Xuan'er go, she is still young, let the concubine bear any hardships." ”
Jihou shook off the hand of the Seventh Lady and stepped on it fiercely, and the Seventh Lady was suddenly put on a shoe print on her face. The Seventh Lady was so pained that her face was distorted.
Jihou scolded: "Slut, do you think your tricks are worthwhile? ”
Guo Lingfei knelt down, lowered his head, and said, "Father, actually...... In fact, the idea of spreading rumors is...... It was born of a child. ”
"Childe, don't say it, this thought, concubine body...... The concubine is physically and mentally comprehended. The Seventh Lady said tremblingly, looking at Guo Lingfei, her eyes full of tears.
"Slut, even Jin'er you are broken. Do you think I feel sorry for you? Are you relying on my love? Jihou was furious in an instant.
"No, my father, ......" Guo Lingfei hurriedly tried to explain clearly.
"Childe, you don't have to be like this, I just hope you can take care of Xuan'er." At the mention of Ji Xuan, the Seventh Lady's face softened, very gentle.
Guo Lingfei knew that the Seventh Lady meant that he might not be able to escape this catastrophe, and hoped that Guo Lingfei could help take care of Ji Xuan.
"Slut, dare to talk more!" Ji Hou said, pulled the corners of his mouth, sneered, and said, "Slut, do you think Ji Xuan doesn't need to marry?" The people in the northwest region are open, and there are **** habits. Do you think they'll mind? ”
"Oh, slut, you know what? The leader of the Northwest Territory can be the leader of the previous leader, and the next leader can take over everything from the previous leader. Jihou's voice was like a ghost, and it was terrifying.
"Please, please, sir...... For the sake of the concubine who has served you for many years, I beg you...... That's your daughter, too. The Seventh Lady's voice trembled, like a terrible female ghost.
"Hmph, anyway, I'm a daughter, and I'm not bad for this one. As for you, you have also served me for many years, but you can give you a happy old age, women, will there be less as me? You're ridiculous! ”
Guo Lingfei couldn't stand it, and said loudly: "Father, ......"
Before Guo Lingfei finished speaking, Jihou interrupted her again and said, "Jin'er, you are messing around. You still don't understand that you represent the interests of your own family, you must know that now King Xia's invasion of the northwest is very troublesome, and he is trying to send a woman over to make peace, and I send Ji Xuan over to the past, which can please King Xia's heart, which is also paving the way for you in the future. ”
He taught earnestly, like a loving father. But Guo Lingfei knew that this man only pretended to be interests and only pretended to be himself.
When the Seventh Lady heard Jihou say this, her face was like ashes, and she threw herself straight to the ground, as if she was dead. Indeed, mourning is better than dying.
"Come on, drag this slut down." Jihou called.
Immediately, two servants came in and rudely grabbed the seventh lady's wrist.
Seeing a tear falling from the eyes of the Seventh Lady, she said faintly: "Master, then why did you have to be a concubine here in the first place?" ”
Jihou didn't answer, and the Seventh Lady didn't say anything, quietly, time flowed at this moment.
"Drag her down." Jihou was the first to speak.
The Seventh Lady was taken down like this.
Guo Lingfei was still kneeling there in a daze.
"Jin'er, you still haven't fully reflected on it. You know, even if you did it, I blame you. Because you are my only heir. Your heart is still not ruthless enough, you still don't understand, only power is your only goal to chase. You're thinking about it. ”
After Jihou finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left the study.
Guo Lingfei didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, he kept kneeling on the ground, and he didn't feel his legs sore.
