Chapter 073: The Secret That Can't Be Known
Gu Yaolian pretended to be stunned, his eyes flashing slightly.
She seemed to be surprised by Chen Dongming's words, and was not affected by the pain in her shoulder in the slightest.
If it weren't for the pale lips, Chen Dongming would have thought that the little girl in front of him was afraid of pain.
"I saw that the eldest lady went to find the second son of the Ma family." Chen Dongming stared at Gu Yaolian and said lightly, "She said that Miss Kong and the girl of the Feng family had a dispute. ”
"Therefore, Ma Gongzi was instigated by someone to scare Miss Kong, but he didn't want to hurt you by mistake."
Gu Yaolian's hands trembled slightly, and her eyes were red, "I don't believe it." ”
She really doesn't believe that Chen Dongming is a person who likes to talk about right and wrong behind his back.
Chen Dongming is telling the truth, but he is also testing her temperament.
If she knew everything about it, then Chen Dongming would feel that her mind was deep and would suspect her of lying.
Therefore, at this time, she played a silly Bai Tian, and kept shaking her head and saying that she didn't believe it.
As for the matter of the inner house, Chen Dongming will not ask, people like him will believe the reality in front of him.
The scene that fell into Chen Dongming's eyes was that Gu Yao's little face was white and bloodless, and there was no surprise and uneasiness in his eyes.
This little girl really doesn't have a city?
He lowered his head and thought, but he felt that he couldn't find anything wrong.
As soon as Chen Dongming thinks about things, he likes to hold the scabbard on his waist with his hand, but today's scabbard has sharp decorations hanging on it, so he bleeds when he touches it like this.
Although the wound is not big, it is a little terrible to look at.
Chen Dongming continued to think about things as if he hadn't noticed.
He thought about it and gradually understood.
Gu Yaolian has been by Wang Ruolan's side since she was sensible, and she was protected by Pei Yu, and she almost lost her life a few times, but once she was young and probably didn't have any memory, and once she didn't really have an accident, so this little girl is probably really as simple as she shows.
But if she is really an ignorant and immature child, why does Mama Zhang value her so much?
"Let's go." Gu Yaolian turned his head, his voice a little choked, "Don't say this again in the future." ”
"She's my sister, my sister-in-law, she won't."
She said this just like what Jiang Wensheng said to her back then, he said, she is your sister, your sister-in-law, how could she harm you?
Yes, my sister-in-law won't hurt her? So what about not relatives?
What if they don't have the same blood in their bones?
Chen Dongming looked at Gu Yao's pitiful appearance and was speechless for a long time.
After half a pay, he said, "I'm sorry, but I'm not lying." ”
"Second Miss, then I'll take my leave first."
Chen Dongming turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Gu Yao.
"Wait." Gu Yaolian raised his hand, picked up the gauze soaked in medicinal juice on one side, and handed it to Chen Dongming, "You serve by the side of the Son of Heaven, if your hand bleeds, you will lose your manners." ”
Chen Dongming was reminded by Gu Yaolian like this, only to find that his right finger was broken.
He has been in Jin Wuwei for many years, and he has secretly helped His Majesty do a lot of dirty things, what are these little injuries?
But seeing Gu Yao's concerned eyes, he couldn't refuse this little girl's kindness after all, after all, his aunt married into the Gu family in the future, and he and Gu Yaolian were afraid that there would be contacts.
Gu Yaoqing is ambitious, and he disdains to associate with such people.
But Gu Yaolian is a child that both his aunt and Mama Zhang like, and he can't be too distant from her.
"Thank you." Chen Dongming took the gauze from Gu Yaolian's hand and wrapped it around his hand casually.
His wound was not deep, but now that he was wrapped in gauze, the bleeding immediately stopped.
Chen Dongming said goodbye again, and this time Gu Yaolian did not keep him anymore.
She would remind Chen Dongming that she was grateful for what Chen Dongming said to her.
Although this matter is not difficult to investigate, Gu Yaolian is grateful to those who have kindness to her.
After Chen Dongming walked out of the tent for a while, he raised his hand and removed the gauze and wanted to discard it, but he paused, and after all, he did not drop the blood-stained gauze, but put it in the cuff.
Chen Dongming went to see Emperor Qitai, and Emperor Qitai retreated.
"How?" Emperor Qitai asked Chen Dongming, "Has she come into contact with people?" ”
Chen Dongming shook his head, "Back to Your Majesty, I can't see it." ”
"Really?" Emperor Qitai looked at Emperor Qitai's eyes a little deep, "The Praetorian Guard said that the group of mastiffs smelled blood. ”
Last night, someone broke into the paddock with a fan and went to see a certain concubine.
It's just that Emperor Qitai naturally didn't dare to say anything about this matter.
He has a ghost in his heart.
If it weren't for Mama Lu taking poison and committing suicide this morning, he wouldn't be so flustered.
Outsiders only know that Mama Lu is an old mother who has served the queen all her life, but they don't know that Mama Lu has had a close relationship with Zheng Xuan.
For Emperor Qitai, the name Zheng Xuan is the last thing he wants to hear.
He still remembers how weirdly she laughed when he took a knife to cut off Zheng Xuan's head.
She seemed to know that she was going to kill her, and she was so elegant even when she died.
When he dreams back at midnight, he always dreams of Zheng Xuan.
Zheng Xuan was still wearing the long turquoise dress, and asked him with a smile, "Prince, why did you kill me?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, it's the wound on Miss Gu's body that has been torn again." Chen Dongming replied, "I have interrogated carefully, and the second lady should not know." ”
He went from being unsure at the beginning to affirming now.
Chen Dongming had never told a lie in front of Emperor Qitai, but now he subconsciously favored Gu Yao.
It's not because of how much he likes Gu Yaolian, but if Gu Yaolian is involved, then the Gu family will also be involved......
He didn't want his aunt to be unhappy.
If it were a weekday, Emperor Qitai would definitely find an abnormality.
But Mama Lu's death made Emperor Qitai a little panicked, so he didn't notice Chen Dongming's abnormality at all.
Emperor Qitai is most afraid of someone to check Zheng Xuan's death and what Zheng Xuan has done, Zheng Xuan's favorite Tangquan Palace in the past, and now he has also ordered heavy guards.
In his memory, Zheng Xuan was an extremely terrible woman.
She is resourceful and has a myriad of means.
If Zheng Xuan had not had difficulty giving birth to a stillbirth, the child might have become the empress.
"Got it." Emperor Qitai said, "You stand down." ”
"What I tell you to investigate, you must continue to investigate." Emperor Qitai was silent for a moment, "I don't want to see the living. ”
He wanted to see the bodies of these insiders, not to see them alive.
Chen Dongming nodded, "The minister knows." ”
After Chen Dongming left, Emperor Qitai sat down on a chair with blank eyes.
His face was vicissitudes, as if he had aged in an instant.
In the middle of the sound, he stroked the chair carved with dragon patterns under him, and muttered to himself, "Aunt Xuan, you can't blame me, if I don't kill you, how can I ascend the throne?" ”
"Don't you want me to be on the throne the most? I did it. ”
"I did it, and you're damn blind!"
