Chapter 486: Where Are So Many Coincidences
What the old marquis was worried about was verified as soon as Gu Jinzhen opened his mouth.
"Since it's a reminiscence, let's start with what happened eighteen years ago."
"Eighteen years ago? How old were you eighteen years ago, what do you need to reminisce? ”
The old marquis's obvious lack of confidence made Gu Jinzhen laugh immediately, "It's because of my young age that I can't remember many things clearly, so I want to talk about the past, I'm afraid that I will misremember and misunderstand you." ”
"Since you have this worry, it means that you are not sure, and the uncertain things are naturally not counted."
Looking at the old marquis, who was more sharp than before, the smile on the corner of Gu Jinzhen's mouth was even worse, "That's why I asked for a certificate." ”
"What do you want to verify?"
"The old marquis has a weak heart?"
"Weak heart? What do I need to be empty-hearted? ”
"That's it," Gu Jinzhen said aggressively, "Since you are not weak-minded, let's talk about the past." ”
"Recall! Up! What do we have to say? The old Marquis of Dingguo yelled irritably.
"It is precisely because we don't have it that we have to sit down and talk about it, after all, eighteen years ago, when I was three years old, a lot of things happened in the Hou Mansion, which also made me leave the Hou Mansion. There are some things that we have to make clear. ”
The old marquis blushed, grabbed Aunt Ruan's hand, and made a gesture to get up.
It's a pity that his hands and feet are weak, and he struggled several times, but he couldn't stand up.
Anxious and angry, the old marquis coughed violently.
Aunt Ruan complained while helping the old Dingguo Marquis to follow the anger in her chest: "Uncle, the slave doesn't know what you want to say, the master's mood is very unstable, and if you do this, it will only stimulate the master." ”
"Even if it's a woman who comes out of the land of fireworks, she still has to learn the rules she should know, right? Now that you know that there is no place for you to speak, you keep your mouth shut. You don't have to look at the old marquis aggrievedly, no matter how much he spoils you, he is used to you, and your identity is just an aunt, if it weren't for the fact that the old marquis needs you to take care of it, do you think you can stay in this room? ”
Gu Jinzhen's ruthless words made Aunt Ruan's face pale. There were tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes, and his eyes hung aggrievedly.
Lao Dingguohou's chest rose and fell violently, and he wanted to say a few words, but he couldn't do it.
If it was according to the past, the Feng clan should have spoken a long time ago.
She and Lao Dingguohou have always been a white-faced singer and a red-faced singer, Lao Dingguohou is responsible for reprimanding, and Feng is responsible for persuading the two, and in the gags, Gu Jinzhen is framed for all kinds of unfilial crimes.
But now, the Feng family has long been disheartened, and it doesn't matter if Gu Jinzhen wants to settle the ledger or clean up the portal.
"Eighteen years ago, around this time, my mother died."
Everyone in the room was in a state of great distress.
Regarding Shen Yuan's death, Gu Jinxuan and Gu Jintai are not parties to the matter, let alone know, but they have heard some rumors more or less over the years, whether it is spread outside, or listening to the ambiguous words of their parents, they can guess a rough idea if they make up their brains.
So, it's time to settle the ledger today?
"Your mother's death is because she is weak and has not recovered since giving birth to you, and she is ...... because she is overthinking" Speaking of emotion, Lao Dingguo Marquis also raised his hand to wipe his tears.
"Why did my mother think so much, and why did she never recover?"
Under the cuffs, the old Dingguo Marquis hid his face and frowned irritably.
He didn't like such an aggressive Gu Jinzhen, he didn't want to answer any questions from Gu Jinzhen, but he knew better that if he really avoided talking about it, Gu Jinzhen's questions would be sharper.
"Your mother's health has not been good since she was a child, and I think your grandfather and grandmother told you that at the beginning, I didn't want children, but your mother insisted again and again, saying that she didn't want to leave regrets in her life. Naturally, I didn't want to, in order to reassure your mother, I let out the connecting room, but your mother still secretly stopped the medicine and became pregnant with you. Your mother gave birth to you, and she was already dead, losing money, and drinking medicine all the time. Your mother is worried that she won't see you grow up, and she is depressed all day, and over time she becomes delirious and has an accident. ”
Choked again, Lao Dingguohou couldn't go on.
"Master, don't be sad, Madame knows that it has not been easy for you these years, Uncle is now successful in his career, he is a first-class general of the imperial dynasty, and Madame is in the spirit of heaven, and she is also very comforting."
"My mother is not comforted, what does it matter to you? You swear so much, my mother gave you a dream, or are you going to see my mother? ”
"Uncle, slave maid......"
"Aunt Ruan, if you don't understand the rules, I can find a nurturing grandmother to teach you."
Gu Jinzhen's words made Aunt Ruan immediately silence.
Unwillingly, she glanced at Lao Dingguohou, Aunt Ruan turned to the side, turned her back to Gu Jinzhen, and out of sight.
The old Dingguo Marquis met Gu Jinzhen's gaze with confidence.
He didn't believe that Gu Jinzhen could find out anything.
Back then, he handled every detail well, and the aftermath did not leave any clues.
Over the years, Gu Jinzhen has not checked privately, but in the end it was all in vain, which made him even more confident.
"I checked the cause of my mother's death, and you did a clean job, leaving no clues, that is, I felt that there was a suspicion, and you also blocked it as soon as possible."
"We? Gu Jinzhen, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. The old Dingguo Marquis said quietly.
Gu Jinzhen smiled lightly, "I really don't have any evidence in my hand, but you know if you did it." ”
"You also said that you have no evidence, and what you don't have evidence is a false accusation." The old Dingguo Marquis said confidently.
Gu Jinzhen nodded, "Yes, there was no evidence before. ”
Before?
Gu Jinzhen's words made Lao Dingguohou's heart sink.
Gu Jinzhen took out a piece of paper from his arms.
The old Dingguo Marquis lowered his eyes and looked at it, not knowing whether to breathe a sigh of relief or be nervous.
"You should be familiar with this prescription."
"It's your mother's prescription for your body. Because your mother was not yet confinement at that time, she was very careful with her medication. This prescription, if I remember correctly, was prescribed by the doctor invited by your grandfather, and the medicine was also sent after the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion was boiled, and it was personally fed by your grandmother's grandmother. ”
Therefore, with such a rigorous process, outsiders can't get involved.
Gu Jinzhen nodded, "Yes, my grandfather and grandmother thought they were perfect, but they didn't want to, but in the end, they were all secrets." ”
"Gu Jinzhen, what do you mean?" The old Dingguo Marquis squinted at Gu Jinzhen.
"The people around my mother are from the Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion, and she has no problem eating, drinking, wearing, and using, but the problem is the flowers in the yard."
"Flowers? I've never heard that flowers can kill! The old Marquis of Dingguo said disdainfully.
"Naturally, it is possible, such as dripping Guanyin. As long as it hurts its stems and leaves, it will shed sap, which is poisonous, and if you eat too much, it will become dumb, and if it drops into your eyes, it will cause blindness, and your skin will itch when it touches the sap. Another example is daffodils, the bulbs of daffodils are poisonous, and the flowers and leaves and stems are also slightly poisonous, and eating them by mistake can cause vomiting or stomach pain. Moreover, daffodils are not suitable for placing in the bedroom, which will affect people's sleep, and they will be dizzy when they smell too much. ”
"Your mother never puts any flowers in her room, one is that your mother doesn't like it, and the other is that there are so many people around your mother to guard against it, so there will be no such omission." The old Dingguo Marquis also perfectly blocked Gu Jinzhen's speculation.
Gu Jin looked at the old Dingguo Marquis steadily.
Perhaps his gaze was too straightforward, and the old Marquis of Dingguo looked away uncomfortably.
"Yes, there is no in my mother's room, but there is one in the yard, and if I remember correctly, the road from the courtyard gate to the bedroom is full of this ......" he took out a handful of seeds and threw them directly on the table.
The old Dingguo Marquis's eyes shrank.
"This flower is lost in early winter, but even if its stalk withers, it will not rot, but will remain in the mud all winter. Many large families will plant in the yard, and after the snow melts, stepping on it will not dirty their boots and clothes, which is very convenient. It's just that outsiders don't know that when this plant is mixed with a certain spice, it will affect people's sanity, and over time, it will drive people crazy. Of course, this 'madness' is not the madness of 'madness', but the disturbance of people's minds and the doing of unconscious things. My mother died in an accident, right? ”
Gu Jinzhen looked at the old Dingguo Marquis with a smile, "I remember that at that time, the old marquis suddenly fell in love with the sachet, at that time, I didn't know who made it, now take a look, Feng Clan, right?" ”
"What's wrong with the sachets? Who in the circle doesn't wear a sachet? At that time, I was depressed and restless because of your mother's affairs, and when I met the Feng family, the Feng family gave me two sachets that soothe the nerves! Gu Jinzhen, I know that you have always been haunted by your mother's death, thinking that your mother was killed by someone! I don't care what your grandfather has instilled in you over the years, I tell you clearly, although your mother finally fell into the water and died, look at the people who followed her at that time, they were all from the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, and none of them were from the Dingguo Marquis Mansion! Those people were all sent by your grandmother, and our Dingguo Marquis Mansion doesn't have that much ability, so we can buy them! Your mother jumped off by herself while she was walking by the lake, and your grandfather checked it back then, and even if they didn't accept it, these are all facts! What kind of flowers, what stalks, these things you talked about, all these things were arranged by your mother, what to plant, where to plant, she has the final say. Although, your mother didn't have the energy to take care of the backyard during that time, but these affairs were prepared according to your mother's previous intentions, how could there be so many people? If your mother's affair was not an accident, it was also a coincidence! ”
"Coincidence?" Gu Jinzhen shook his head, "To paraphrase the words of the old marquis, how can there be so many coincidences in this world?" ”
"Since you don't think it's a coincidence, tell me what's going on?"
"So, now, you're dying?"
