Chapter 197: Bloodstained
Gu Changfeng came to see Yan Su and asked, but no one in the Yan Mansion dared to stop him, so he hurriedly opened the door.
Ning Xinzhai was covered with the corpses of the people in black, which made people palpitate under the reflection of the remnant sun. The air was filled with a thick smell of blood, and with every step, the smell was inhaled into the lungs.
Gu Changfeng walked through the battlefield, he was extremely familiar with and accustomed to the taste of blood, but at this moment, he frowned.
Stopped, turned around, looked at Errong who was standing at the door, and asked softly, "Did Madame let you put them here?" β
Er Rong looked back at Gu Changfeng and nodded, and whispered: "Aunt Xie died, she died to save Miss." β
"I know what I am."
"Xiangyeβ"
"Say."
"The slave maid had never seen such a terrible young lady, she had almost all the way out of the dungeon, her body and face were covered in blood, and after killing the last assassin, she returned to the dungeon and carried out Aunt Xie's body. Miss said, blood debt and blood repayment. β
"Your young lady is right, it is indeed a blood debt to be repaid."
Gu Changfeng walked lightly, stepping on the corpses of those black-clothed people to the door. Pushing open the door, I saw Yan Suwen sitting in front of the vanity mirror with his back to him. She was still wearing the same clothes as before, and as Errong said, it was stained with blood.
Not only on the body, but also on the hair. The blood, which had dried up, was stuck in pieces on his hair. Gu Changfeng suddenly became worried, and with the worry came an irrepressible distress.
He walked behind Yan Suwen, leaned over, and circled her from behind: "I'm here!" β
Yan Suwen didn't move, but gently covered him with his bloodstained hand: "Gu Yanqing, you can send me a letter of resignation." β
"Why?"
"Because I don't want to, and I don't want to bother you." Yan Suwen raised his head and looked at Gu Yanqing in the bronze mirror: "I'm going to do something, these things may affect you and the Prime Minister's Mansion." I don't want to involve you, and I don't want to involve the Prime Minister. β
"I, Gu Yanqing, will I be afraid of your involvement?"
"I know you're not afraid, but I don't." Yan Suwen gently broke his hand, turned around, and stood up, "I love you, so I don't want to bother you." Give me a year, and if you are willing to marry me after a year, I will still marry you. If you don't want to, I won't force it, but for the rest of my life, I will remember how good you were to me. β
"Yan Su asked!"
"Don't yell at me, I'm uncomfortable." Yan Suwen suddenly threw himself into Gu Changfeng's arms and tightly wrapped his waist with his hand: "I don't want to leave you, especially after I gradually understand my heart for you, I am even more reluctant to leave you, I don't want to, and I am not willing to give you up to those women outside." But Yanqing, I don't have a choice. For what I am going to do next, the words "Mrs. Prime Minister" are a burden, an obstacle, and I have to take them down first. The wind is about to rise in Yecheng, and after the strong wind there will be a thunderstorm, and you have a lot to do, you can't be distracted to take care of me. β
"I can!"
"I know you can, but if we want to grow old together, we have to live well." Yan Suwen stood on tiptoe and gently kissed Gu Changfeng's lips, "Believe me, in a year, I will definitely go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find you, and I will definitely ask you to marry me again." Next time, I don't want a dowry, but I'll give you enough dowry. How, this deal is a good deal, right? β
"It's a good deal, but I'm not rare." Gu Changfeng kissed Yan Suwen's lips fiercely: "Do you think that if I give you a letter of resignation, you will be able to distinguish yourself from the Prime Minister's Mansion clearly?" Won't those people count what you did to me Gu Yanqing? β
"I can change my name!"
"You dare!" Gu Changfeng held her slender neck with his hand: "Yan Su asked, have you never seen the way you provoked me?" β
Yan Suwen just wanted to say that she had seen it, but before she could spit out half a word, she was bitten by Gu Changfeng on her lower lip, she looked at him in pain, but his hand roamed on her cool and delicate skin.
"Yanqing." She softly called his name.
But he took action and stripped off all of her blood-stained garment.
Yan Suwen began to panic.
"I don't mind if you're covered in blood, but I feel sorry for your bloodstained appearance, you are my Gu Yanqing's wife, you shouldn't face this. I'm sorry, but I made my promises again and again, but I failed to keep them again and again. It's me who didn't protect you. Gu Yanqing hugged her distressedly: "Do you blame me?" Hate me? β
Yan Suwen shook his head slightly: "If I stay in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion like an ordinary woman, I believe you will definitely be able to protect me." Yan Qing, I am not an unreasonable woman, I know that some of the troubles I am encountering now are caused by myself. So, I want to leave for the time being, and not be your wife for a while until I get rid of these troubles. β
"Do you want to fly separately from me?" Gu Changfeng pinched her face: "Yan Su asked, don't even think about it." β
"Gu Yanqing, I'm for your good."
"If you are really good for me, wash yourselves." Gu Changfeng leaned into her ear: "I'll take you somewhere at night." "Worry-free
His eyes fell on her slightly open neckline, and he only glanced at her smooth and jade-like skin and hurriedly staggered his gaze.
"I'll get rid of those assassins for you. Some anger, don't put it on the surface, whatever you do, I will support you. β
Yan Suwen's eyes blinked, and a tear rolled down without warning, but she said with a stunned smile: "Gu Yanqing, you are so stubborn, even more stubborn than the one I first knew." β
"I've always been stubborn, especially when it comes to dealing with you." Gu Changfeng combed Yan Suwen's hair: "Go take a bath first, and when you're done bathing, I'll talk to you again." β
"The eldest uncle and Marquis Xuan are very likely to be all the way."
"I know."
"You know?"
"Xuanhou wants to rebel, which is something that almost everyone knows. It's just that those people mistakenly thought that the emperor didn't deal with Xuanhou because he didn't get the evidence of his rebellion. But there is no excuse for the crime that you want to add, and the emperor keeps Marquis Xuan, just because he is in the open. Instead of staring at the person hiding in the shadows, it is better to open one eye, close one eye, and only look at this floating on the water.
Duckweed still has roots, not to mention Xuanhou who wants to rebel, whether it is a person he collects himself, or a person who has ulterior motives and wants to make a living through Xuanhou, as long as he looks at Xuanhou, it is equivalent to watching those people. Yan Baishu is one of them. β
"Then you marry meβ"
"You and I are married, and the marriage contract has been set a long time ago, but your father and your uncle are not all the way, so we can't rule out that your father has long known that your uncle is secretly plotting, so he deliberately married you to our Gu family."
"Does my dad seem to be the kind of person who has a scheming mind?" As soon as Yan Su asked, he gave himself an answer.
Her father is definitely a master who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, and he is definitely a person with that kind of scheming. It's just that hitting the idea on his own daughter makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
"The reason why my mother asked me to quit the Yan family is also because of your eldest uncle, but what I tell outsiders is that my mother doesn't like you, and I finally decided to marry you, and there is also a small part of the reason because of your eldest uncle. Using the identity of the son-in-law of the Yan family to investigate some things in the Yan Mansion is better than Gu Xiangye's name. β
Gu Changfeng said truthfully, Yan Suwen thought he would be angry, but he didn't have any anger in his heart.
"Do you blame me?"
Gu Changfeng waited for a while, but didn't hear Yan Su ask, so he asked worriedly.
"Not to blame."
"Why not blame?"
"Because the person I married should be like this, because the person I married is not only my husband, but also the prime minister of Great Wei, the emperor's confidant, and even my father's allies, the people who conspire together. When he chose his wife, there were many factors, especially the struggle for party power, so no matter what he did, it was excusable and worthy of forgiveness. I just want to ask you, do you really like me? β
"If I marry Yan Muyun, wouldn't it be more convenient to investigate Yan Baishu's affairs?" Gu Changfeng gently blew Yan Suwen's nose.
Yan Suwen looked at him and laughed after a "poof".
"You're right, I'm going to shower and change my clothes."
"The murder of Xuanhou Mansion was planned by Xuanhou, and those people in the mansion were also killed by the killers he sent himself. Mrs. is a maid, and she should have found out when she inspected the scene that almost all of the dead in Xuanhou Mansion were killed with a knife, and many of them were killed without prevention. No matter how good a killer is, there is no way to do it so cleanly, unless the killer is lurking among those people early in the morning.
Who is Xuanhou?
A man who has been plotting rebellion for decades is notoriously suspicious. Those who entered his house, how could he not go to check.
Therefore, the person behind the murder of Xuanhou Mansion can only be him.
In addition, Xuanhou planned this to mislead me and the emperor's sight, he may have thought that I and the emperor were easy to deceive, but he didn't know that his every move had already been monitored by the emperor. He secretly plotted and bribed the commander of the Praetorian Guard, but unfortunately, that commander had already buried his bones in the wilderness. β
"You mean, Yecheng won't be in chaos, even if there is a wind, it is a light wind, and it can't set off stormy waves?"
"I will do my best for my husband." Gu Changfeng looked at Yan Suwen's eyes: "What Madame wants to do, just do it." Whether it's a year or two years, the husband will wait. In addition, the wife must know that the husband is not the husband within a zhang, but the husband who depends on the wife everywhere. β
"It's a bit awkward, but I hear it clearly." Yan Suwen instantly relaxed a lot: "That killer organization taught me, I have to let them know that there are some people who can't be provoked." β
"Madame is mighty."
"The husband is more powerful." Yan Su asked Fu Shen and got up: "That...... Those things outside will be bothered to be disposed of by Lord Laofujun. β
