Chapter 386: It's Not You
The turmoil caused by the death of the shopkeeper is not big, at least from the bright side. After all, the status is there, a small bookstore shopkeeper, even if he dies, what big thing can he do? It's just that, secretly, for some people, this matter is not small.
The government announced to the public that Wen Xiao's shopkeeper had committed suicide, and Sang Luo had just gone over as a guest, and no one would pay attention to her. But this is just a clear road, in private, Gongsun Xiu's side will not think so.
Therefore, when she saw Gongsun Xiu in Xiaoyao Building, she was not surprised at all.
"Concubine De Niangniang!" Sang Luo bowed slightly, and greeted him very naturally, with a familiar look, as if the two had been old friends for many years.
Gongsun Xiu still looks as elegant as a blue lotus out of the dust, but the tiredness between his eyebrows and the trace of sadness under his eyes can still be seen.
"The princess is well!" Gongsun Xiu was not like He Mi'er and the like in the end, and the little leaked emotions were quickly put away, and he also said hello to Sang Luo with a faint nod.
Sang Luo couldn't be polite to her, and sat down by herself, Lianxin had already asked people to bring tea and snacks.
Gongsun Xiu lowered her eyes and drank tea, the mist was filled, and her expression became a little blurred.
She didn't speak, and Sang Luo didn't mean to speak in a hurry. After drinking a cup of tea, she finally remembered that this was her own territory, and as the main family, it didn't seem good for her not to speak.
"Concubine De invited, I don't know what to do?" She knew that there were also people who were talking very vaguely in secret, thinking that the death of Wen Xiao's shopkeeper was inextricably linked to her. However, that is to dare to say it behind your back, but no one dares to say it on the surface. In that case, there is no need for her to rush to mention this matter first, so as not to make it seem like she has a weak heart.
Gongsun Xiu was not in the mood to fight a lawsuit with her, raised his eyes, and got straight to the point: "The princess must have guessed why this palace came!" This palace wants to know, does the death of the shopkeeper have anything to do with the princess? ”
Sang Luo didn't expect her to be so direct, but directness also has direct benefits, because she can crunch no: "No!" ”
Just kidding, she just went to buy something and asked him to relay a word on his behalf. Well, she admits that she was a little uneasy at the time, but it had nothing to do with taking people's lives. Now that the seller is dead, does this life have to be pressed on her head?
It doesn't make sense to say that it is heavenly!
Gongsun Xiu's lips pursed into a straight line, and his eyes were cold, as if judging whether what Sang Luo said was true or false.
Sanluo was calm, letting her stare at herself. Not to mention that she didn't do anything wrong, even if she did something wrong, she could be justified. This man's death has nothing to do with her, and she is also a victim. Now even Mu Zhanbei is secretly investigating, and he is worried that this matter is aimed at her.
After all, as soon as Wen Xiao's shopkeeper dies, Gongsun Xiu loses the biggest support for her life, and it is hard to guarantee that she will go crazy. As a concubine, if Gongsun Xiu is crazy, it will also be a troublesome thing for Sang Luo.
The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally Gongsun Xiu looked away first: "Sure enough, it's not you!" ”
Sang Luo also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, it was true that she was not afraid, but the less trouble there was, of course, the better. What's more, Gongsun Wan left Gongsun's house, and Sang Luo looked at her like that, probably because she couldn't wait to stay in the northwest with her child with Wu Qingyuan for the rest of her life, and she had no intention of coming back at all-Gongsun Wan gave birth to a daughter, it is said that Wu Qingyuan likes it badly, and he has already become a good father of twenty-four filial piety - and now he is staying in the capital Gongsun's family, and he is just such a slightly pleasing one. For this kind of thing, he made enemies with others, and in the end, he was in constant trouble, and Sang Luo was quite unwilling.
After breathing a sigh of relief, she also reacted, what Gongsun Xiu said was "It's really not you", which means that although she came to ask such a question today, in fact, she is afraid that she is very clear in her heart, and the person who did this is not her at all, but someone else. came to ask this sentence, but because it was the person she cared about, in order to rule out the last possibility, she also had to go through this experience.
can let Gongsun Xiuming know who it is most likely but still can't help but find a reason to excuse the other party, then there is only one person left!
Gongsun Taifu!
Even if it is Gongsun Xiu's parents, if they do this, according to Gongsun Xiu's temperament, I am afraid that they will not be so entangled and painful. But if it was Gongsun Taifu, her self-doubt would be normal. This is mainly because Gongsun Xiu has been personally raised by Gongsun Taifu since she was a child, and the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren is probably much closer than that of her parents.
"I'm actually responsible for this!" Sang Luo also knows what it means to stop in moderation, what she just said is simply because she really didn't do it, and she definitely can't carry this black pot. But at this time, it is time to admit the mistake appropriately, after all, it is impossible to say that the person's death has nothing to do with her.
Gongsun Xiu lowered her eyes, and for a moment Sang Luo thought she was crying, and that sadness and despair seemed to turn into reality. But when she looked up, her eyes were still clean, and there was no trace of crying.
Seeing this, Sang Luo had no choice but to continue to self-analyze to explain things clearly: "I was also passing by at the time before I thought of such a thing...... This is half-true, at that time, in addition to his own calculations, he was also a little staring at the mood of watching a good show, but this result was indeed unexpected, "In short, I am a little at fault for this matter." ”
"It's not your fault!" Gongsun Xiu turned the jade bracelet on her wrist, she didn't have many jewelry on her body, and this emerald jade bracelet looked the most conspicuous, "It's not your fault, it's your fault in this palace!" ”
She took a deep breath, her pursed lips trembled slightly, and she spoke with a hint of trill: "It's because I agreed!" Even "I" came out, and almost the etiquette that went deep into the bone marrow was abandoned, which was enough to see the intensity of her heart at this time.
For a moment, Sang Luo was indeed sympathetic.
For the sake of her family, she chose to give up what she loved and worked hard. Now I finally figured out that I wanted to fight for myself once, but the person I couldn't love was separated from her yin and yang from then on. Especially when she knew that the person who made her suffer this pain was not someone else, but the person for whom she had given almost everything and whom she respected and loved the most, and this pain was doubled.
But I can only sympathize for a while, everyone has their own way of living, Gongsun Xiu chose to give up her lover for the sake of the family, which is doomed to the consequences when she wants to change her attention.
