Zhang Ying looked at the man she liked in front of him, he was so handsome, dignified and clear, even if his face was full of anger at the moment, he could still make people feel that there was love in his heart.

A tear fell from her, "Today I lost, not because I made a mistake, but because you ......"

"Because I'm a vixen." Gu Nian pursed his lips and said.

She didn't like to worry about these things with people, she had lived around for so long, what kind of inner house fight, privacy methods had never been seen.

Zhang Ying is so arrogant and unreasonable, spreading rumors and making trouble, even if she lets her go this time, next time, she will come out to be a demon.

She can be regarded as seeing through it, all virtuous and virtuous virtues are fake and harmful, and only controlling her own destiny is the royal way.

This time, she didn't want to let Zhang Ying go.

Besides, the eldest princess didn't know for what purpose, and she didn't want to let go of Zhang Ying either.

Since there is a tall man in front of him, why not do it without her short man to support him?

Zhang Ying was suddenly blocked by Gu Nian, she just wanted to slander her by saying those words, but as a result, people came up and directly admitted it, how can you say it later?

She had prepared a stomach full of words, and wanted to force Gu Nian to lose face in front of Zhou Yuxuan, but as a result, those words all died in her intestines.

"You ......" Zhang Ying's face was flushed with anger.

"I divorced Niannian, not because she was bad, but because she was too good, so I didn't dare to care about her."

Zhou Yuxuan looked in Zhang Ying's direction, as if he was talking to her, but he didn't, "From beginning to end, it's me who is not worthy of missing it." ”

He lowered his eyelids and looked lonely, "It's that I couldn't help it, and I accidentally had another girl, so how can I match my thoughts?" ”

"Cousin......" Gu Nian shouted, what was he doing? Self-defilement? She didn't need him to do that.

A person who can restrain himself after being drugged, how can he spoil a girl, if he wants Zhang Ying to die, there is no need to do so.

Sure enough, I only listened to Zhang Yingdao, "A man has three wives and four concubines, which is normal, and men in the world who have never been the first are rare, if they are really good wives, they should give their husbands concubines." ”

Zhou Yuxuan laughed, looking at Zhang Ying as if looking at a monster, and didn't say anything, but said to Gu Nian, "Let's go, grandmother is waiting for us at home." ”

After speaking, he said to the eldest princess, "Princess, we will take our leave." ”

The eldest princess leaned back in her chair and waved her hand lazily, "Let's go, let's go, Niannian, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I always have bad things happening, it's all my fault, next time it's just the two of us, can you talk well?" ”

Gu Nianwan'er, "Okay, I don't blame you, who hasn't encountered a few strange things." ”

On the way back, Gu Nian sat in the carriage, Zhou Yuxuan rode a horse and followed outside, both of them were silent, since the last time they saw each other in the garden of the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion, it was the first time the two had met for so long, and they were still in that situation.

"You...... Don't be afraid, the eldest princess will definitely take care of the aftermath, you don't have to take what you said just now to heart. Zhou Yuxuan said softly outside the curtain.

He thought that the breeze would inevitably blow away his words, and Gu Nian would definitely not be able to hear them, but Gu Nian heard them.

Gu Nian was silent, such a person, she may never like, but she will always be grateful, maybe when she needed help the most, he didn't show up.

But in this world, there is a difference between men and women, and if two men and women get a little closer, there will be gossip. There are a few who play cards like Xiao Yue out of common sense.

She is not afraid, although it is the era of the supremacy of imperial power, but at least the emperor is Mingjun, today it is Zhang Ying who is spreading rumors outside, even if the queen mother loves Zhang Ying and wants to reprimand herself, she must also look at the emperor's face, after all, his father is his right-hand man.

Gu Nian followed Zhou Yuxuan back to the courtyard of the eldest princess of the country, before Gu Shi'an left yesterday, he said that he would come to pick her up, but today it was time to hold the lamp, and he did not appear.

Gu Nian ordered people to clean up their things, and at the same time worried about whether there was an accident on his father's side.

During this period of time, Gu Shi'an has been the image of doing what she says here, and if she can't come, she will ask her subordinates to deliver letters before.

After Gu Shi'an came out of the British Mansion, he led his horse and walked on the bustling streets of Kyoto, not knowing where to go.

He used to think that he was the son-in-law of the Duke of Qi, although he was not loved by his mother, but with his father's careful teaching, he did not have many regrets in life.

Later, Mrs. Yu said that he was just an outer room, so he suffered from her cold reception for decades, and he accepted it calmly, because his father was still his father.

Now, he was told that he was not surnamed Gu, that the father he had respected for decades was not his father, and that his father was someone else.

For so many years, he has been wandering outside, and he thinks that his heart is strong enough, otherwise His Majesty would not have handed over the Jinyi Guard to him to command.

Nian Nian was right, there was an eye watching him, and from the moment he stepped into the capital, the bureau began to turn, or, the time was pushed earlier.

Jing Ning's poisoning, Nian Nian was poisoned, he first revealed the identity of the outer room, and recently Yang Ge Lao used the Yu family to reveal that he was not surnamed Gu, one ring after another.

When he knew that he was not the child of the Duke of Qi, at that moment, he had suspected that the British Duke, and even his adoptive father, the old Qi Guogong, after all, Jing Ning was the daughter of the eldest princess of the country.

The eldest princess of the protector was the culprit of King Su's defeat at that time, and in order to avenge the king of Su, the two of them would inevitably want to put Jingning and die, and Nian Nian carried the blood of the eldest princess of the protector, which was also the target of their eradication.

But today, after talking to the British duke, with his acuity, he found no clues.

There are only two possibilities, either he is too shallow to see through the old scheming of the British duke, or he has indeed wronged them.

All of this is up to him to find the answer.

Gu Shi'an was in the tavern on the corner of the street, pouring himself a drink.

He poured the last drop of wine from the pot, raised his glass and drank it all, looked at the night, and remembered that he had promised his daughter to take her back to the city.

He closed his eyes, he was not alone, he still had a daughter.

He is not qualified to grieve.

Now he can't take Nian Nian back to Beijing, no matter how much the princess resents him, but Nian Nian is always Jingning's daughter, and the emperor should soon know his true life experience, whether he is open to the net, or he is in prison, only in the emperor's thoughts.

He had to do something before the emperor knew.

When Gu Shi'an dragged his heavy footsteps back to his home in Liyu Hutong, he heard a sharp, old scolding voice from a distance, "Even if he is not my own, he is still a child of the Gu family." How can I not get in? ”

It was the voice of the old lady.

Gu Shi'an pursed his lips and stepped forward with a calm face, "What kind of system, it's noisy at the gate." ”

When the porter saw him coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward, "Third master, you said that you can't let people in without your orders, so the little one stopped the old lady......"

Old Madam Yu's face was gloomy, and when she saw Gu Shi'an, she couldn't lose her temper, she just gritted her teeth,

"Even if you move out, you are still a descendant of the Gu family, and such an eyeless subordinate should be sold."

"If you don't have the right people, the government can send a few."

Gu Shi'an smiled and asked with some sarcasm, "Oh? I don't know why the old lady came here so late? ”

The rest of the Qi Mansion did not come with Old Madam Yu,

Old Madam Yu brought two servant women and a young girl over, one of which was Mama Bi, who was caught by the princess who protected the country and put back.

Mama Bi glanced at Gu Shi'an, and lowered her eyes again.

Old Madam Yu raised her chin, "Can you go in now?" Or do you want me to talk at the gate and let the neighbors come and listen? ”

After Gu Shi'an listened, he was silent for a moment and invited Mrs. Yu into the house, and the girl lowered her head and helped Mrs. Yu into the house.

After waiting in the front hall, Gu Shi'an sat on the armchair opposite the old lady Yu, without saying a word, waiting for the old lady to speak.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yu was displeased, this third child became more and more unruly, but thinking of her intention today, she suppressed her displeasure.

"Although you are not my own child, and I have treated you wrongly, but in any case, your father is sincere to you, although you moved out of the Guogong Mansion, you are still surnamed Gu."

"Now the Gu family ...... The Gu family is about to be destroyed, and the century-old Guogong Mansion will be completely ruined in the hands of your generation, please, please see that your father has been sincere to you since he was a child, save the Gu family, even if it is, even if I beg you. ”

"Compare your heart to your heart, since you know that Xiao Wu is not your child, have you lost your joy with her? Back then, I looked at my son who didn't have it, and the children were all my mother's heart, how could I like you? ”

"Shi'an, I don't want to say more about how many misunderstandings there are, it's just that those rumors outside will always change their flavor when they come and go, whether it's for you, Xiao Wu, or the Gu family.

Mrs. Yu burst into tears when she spoke, and finally said that she wanted to live in Gu Shi'an's house.

After all, it is rumored that the Guogong Mansion treats Gu Shi'an harshly, and there are things about Gu Nian, not to mention anything else, just say that the girl in the big house can sell the girl in the third room, and this thing can make people talk about it for a long time.

At this time, the best way to crack the rumors is naturally for Gu Shi'an to move back to the Gongfu to live.

But Old Madam Yu also knew that it was impossible for Gu Shi'an to return home with Gu Nian, so she could only be cheeky and say that she wanted to live with Gu Shi'an.

Mother-in-law is also a mother, and has the responsibility to support her.

Gu Shi'an smiled lightly when he heard this, "My house is too small, and I will wronged the old lady." ”

"How so." Old Madam Yu thought that Gu Shi'an was finally relieved, stood up, grabbed Gu Shi'an's cuffs tightly, and said with a smile, "How could my mother dislike you, I know, I will definitely treat you well in the future." ”

Gu Shi'an took the old lady's hand off the sleeve, and his tone did not change, "But I, I no longer regard myself as the child of the Gu family!" Didn't you just say that you would move from the family tree? Moreover, I don't deserve you to be good to me, and your good will be left to Grandpa Guo and your children. ”

"It's getting late, it's hard to walk late, you better stay at home and recuperate."

After he finished speaking, he called outside, "Nanshan, send off the guests, tell the porter, in the future, the people and things of the Qi State Mansion don't need to report to me again, and I don't want to see them again." ”

Mrs. Yu has learned Gu Shi'an's ruthlessness, although she knows, she is still unwilling in her eyes, "Now that you are soaring, you have forgotten your father's teaching to you, Gu Shi'an, no matter what, I am your mother-in-law, you should be filial to me, otherwise, I will sue Your Majesty and have your good fruit to eat." ”

Gu Shi'an let out a 'heh', stood up, and said, "I have moved from the family tree, so it is equivalent to being kicked out of the house, and now come to talk to me about family affection, don't you think it's ridiculous?" Do you think the Holy One doesn't know this? I'm afraid I know more than you do. ”

"I advise the old lady, in the future, we should draw a clear line, and it is better to have nothing to do with each other, otherwise, don't blame me for not reminding you when the time comes."

Old Madam Yu sneered when she heard this, but sat more steadily, "Want to draw a line with the Gu family?" It's not that easy. ”

"Look at her." As she spoke, Mrs. Yu pulled over the girl who had been standing beside her without saying a word.

She pushed the girl, "This is Wan'er, since your sister died, she has been raised by my side, and I have raised her with pampering." Do you think she's just your sister's daughter? ”

Mrs. Yu smiled and stretched out her hand to pick up the tea cup beside her, but found that the side was empty, and then she remembered that after entering the door and sitting down, no one served tea at all.

The smile on her face froze, and she awkwardly withdrew her hand and placed it on her lap.

Gu Shi'an looked at the girl casually and said, "The old lady doesn't need to sell the guanzi, just say anything." ”

Old Madam Yu said proudly, "When the family was separated that day, I said that Xiao Wu is not your daughter, and your daughter has died a long time ago. ”

"That's just me lying to you, I just thought at the time, my son is dead, and I will let you taste the taste of the child's death, but in the end, I can't bear to do that hurtful thing."

"So, as I said, I will change a child for you, your real daughter, right in front of you, you can take a closer look."

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that Old Madam Yu would have this one, did she really think she was a fool? The anger in his heart rushed upward, his hand pressed tightly on the armchair and he almost couldn't suppress his anger, and directly stepped forward and kicked the triumphant old lady Yu.

She, she, how dare she?

Shameless, it's really shameless, it's really a person's heart to be rotten to a certain extent, when and under any conditions, he can do things that hurt nature and poison others.

There is also a disgusting, innocent, and good face for you.

Gu Shi'an tried to suppress his anger, and on the other side, Mrs. Yu was still talking about how she sent Du Wan'er to her daughter to raise.

How did he raise Sister Du Wan'er under his knees after his daughter's death.

I saw Du Wan'er kneeling in front of Gu Shi'an, tears fluttered down, her voice choked, telling her disbelief, and at the same time saying that if Gu Shi'an was unwilling to recognize her, she could continue to be the daughter of the Du family, anyway, she was used to it.

He also said that she was lonely and alone, and she was very envious of Gu Nian for having such a good father.

Gu Shi'an always looked at Du Wan'er kneeling on the ground with a smile.

"Are you really my daughter?"

Du Wan'er's hands trembled slightly, she hid her hands in her sleeves, and her voice was almost inaudible, "Grandmother said yes." ”

A few years ago, she once went to incense, when she wanted to surprise Mrs. Yu, so she opened the little maid beside her and secretly went to Mrs. Yu's yard, but she did not surprise Mrs. Yu, but frightened herself.

In the wing room of the temple, Mrs. Yu was talking to a man, she wanted to leave, but before she could take a step, she heard Mrs. Yu say,

"You asked me to change the child back then, and I changed it, but I didn't expect that the child was not killed, but was sent to Zhuangzi by the people who served around me, and now the child is raised under my knees.

Do you know that when I saw the child's face, I couldn't help but strangle her, but I still have to pretend to love her. ”

After listening to these words, Du Wan'er heard a 'bang' in her mind, as if she was about to explode, only to hear the old lady Yu continue,

"You tell me, where is my child? Is he really dead? Don't think that pinching this trick will make me do all the bad things. ”

The man's voice was low and a little hoarse, "I told you that your child is dead, and you want to take revenge on your husband, so I pinched your handle." ”

When Du Wan'er remembered the situation that day, she herself was frightened.

In the end, she was even frightened of a serious illness, and after that, she carefully flattered the old lady, and secretly observed Gu Nian.

When she saw that the people in the house treated her wrongly, she was inexplicably happy, even if she replaced her, she was not disliked.

When she saw that Gu Nian was going to Jinling, she was disappointed, and she heard that the eldest princess of the protector treated her like a jewel, and the love that should have been enjoyed by her was now enjoyed by a person of unknown origin.

She hated ...... Envy again......

Since then, she has paid more and more attention to Gu Nian, and also paid attention to the news of her father Gu Shi'an.

That person is really good, she has secretly seen the two get along, and she really loves Gu Nian.

Those favors should have been hers.

Du Wan'er hated Gu Nian very much, and laughed at her in her heart, no matter how pampered she was, she was just a wild species of unknown origin.

But she pity Gu Nian, what if one day she knows that she is not a child of the Gu family? Is it acceptable?

Sure enough, after Gu Nian found out, he fell seriously ill, and Gu Shi'an completely broke away from the Gu family.

Gu Nian is such a straw bag, where is she worthy of Gu Sanye treating her so well.

Every time Du Wan'er thought of Gu Nian's pampered appearance, her tears couldn't help but fall.

"I don't dare to be your father, who is your father, you know in your heart." Gu Shi'an said.

Du Wan'er's eyes were red, her hands were clenched into fists, shrunk into her sleeves, and her palms were full of cold sweat.

She didn't expect the person in front of her to say such cold and hard words. Old Madam Yu didn't expect it either.

"How can you ...... How can you say such a thing. Du Wan'er's eyes widened in shock,

"You don't want to recognize me, it doesn't matter, I won't die begging to come forward to admit my relatives, it's just that I know where the midwife was back then, I can find her to confront her, I am really your daughter."

Gu Shi'an listened, but he was very surprised in his heart, when he and the princess of the protector first visited the truth, they had looked for this midwife, but there was no news at all, some said that he died, and some said that he had moved away.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be in the hands of the person in front of him.

He looked at Du Wan'er's pitiful face again, and couldn't see that it was a girl with a city in her heart.

Old Madam Yu heard Du Wan'er say that there was a midwife in her hand, and she showed an unbelievable look, "What are you talking about...... What did you say? ”

Du Wan'er smiled sadly, "I knew the truth a few years ago, you talked with people in the meditation room of Izumo Temple, for so many years, I served you carefully, paralyzed you, and found the midwife with the poor human hand in my hand." ”

Old Madam Yu raised her hand and sneered again and again, "I really didn't expect that I would be pecked all day long." ”

Gu Shi'an just shook his head slowly, "I don't understand what you say, I only know that you are not my daughter, and besides, the child was not replaced back then." ”

He raised his head and looked at the sky outside, at this moment, the stars dotted the night sky, and in the dark sky, there was not a shadow of the moon in sight.

His heart was like this night, densely covered with haze, and the people behind the scenes, intertwined into a web of rings and rings, enveloped him tightly in it.

He wanted to solve the mystery only when the mist cleared.

Old Madam Yu let out a long sigh, looked at Gu Shi'an, and said guiltily, "Shi'an, this matter is my mistake, back then, I shouldn't have done these things, I know that you still can't accept the fact that Xiao Wu is not your biological daughter." ”

"Fortunately, now my own daughter is back to you. I just hope that you can remember your father's kindness to you and pull the Guogong Mansion a hand. ”

"You don't want your father's hard-working mansion to be ruined by you."

It seems that the most difficult and aggrieved person is not Gu Shi'an, but her, because Gu Shi'an will not save him when he sees death, and he sees the decline of the Guogong Mansion.

But they don't want to think about what they did.

Gu Shi'an looked at Mama Bi who was standing behind the old lady lightly, and said to the old lady, "For the specific truth, you can ask the mama behind you, she knows the truth of the matter better than any of you." ”

"Mama Bi?" Old Madam Yu suddenly felt that from head to toe, it was as if she had been put into an ice cellar, and she shivered from the cold, "You...... Didn't you tell me you had a different child? You can't kill the child, so you send it outside. ”

Mama Bi lowered her head, stood up, and knelt in front of the old lady, "Old lady, I can't stand you, I really couldn't kill the child back then, and I really didn't change it, the cousin girl was actually the child you picked up from the outside at that time." ”

"Mama, what do you mean by that?" Du Wan'er couldn't calm down on the side, "What didn't you change?" The midwife clearly said that you changed. How could it be ......"

Mama Bi replied, "Cousin, that midwife received the fifty taels of silver I had saved up with great difficulty......

"Why? I treat you well, why do you want to betray me? Old Madam Yu slapped the table and asked sharply.

Mama Bi smiled, "Treat me well? Will I watch my son die and not save me? You said that the third master would not save the Gu family when he saw death, why didn't you? ”

Old Madam Yu looked embarrassed, "Your son, what if you use those thirty years of old ginseng?" It's not that you're going to die, so why waste something so good. ”

"Haha, then the Gu family is already rotten, so why let the third master come to save it?" Mama Bi laughed, got up, and knelt no more.

Old Madam Yu pointed at her, "Who told you to get up?" If the master didn't let you get up, you dared to get up? I'm going to report to the official, you traitorous minion. ”

Mama Bi patted the dust on her pants, "You forgot, didn't you return the deed of sale to me a few days ago?" Now, I'm not your minion. ”

Mrs. Yu looked at Mama Bi with a pale face, a few days ago Mama Bi came over with the silver and said that she wanted to redeem the whole family, she agreed with a soft heart, but she didn't expect it......

Her face turned red, "Okay, do you really think the Gu family has lost?" Even a minion dares to be bullied. ”

Gu Shi'an sat up straight and said slowly, "Old lady, your minion, you go home and teach a lesson, now, can you come and tell me who the person you met in Izumo Temple is?" ”
