Chapter 111 is very calculating
In this way, Xiang Yeqi understood the logic of the situation.
Wu Zixi didn't tell Gu Yanchao everything she heard, probably in her eyes, the fact that the new favorite concubine was once a maid in Bo Zhaoxu's mansion was not a topic worth caring about, but someone who collaborated with the enemy and treason sounded particularly worrying.
And Gu Yanchao thought that she and Bo Zhaoxu suspected that someone in the court was collaborating with the enemy, so she couldn't hold back the worry in her heart, and took advantage of the situation to put all the charges on the unknown concubine in the eyes of others.
"If you want to win back a game so much, this king has a good idea......" Bo Zhaoxu raised his chin to the night, and his words were full of playfulness, "Call the voice husband to listen?" ”
Nan Chen choked on dinner and consciously turned his back as if he didn't exist.
“……”
Xiang Yeqi winked thoughtfully, feeling that what was in front of him was not the handsome and jade-like Bo Zhaoxu, but the delicate trap that this man used to trick himself.
"I'm thinking about it slowly, it's not impossible." Of course, Xiang Yeqi still needs Bo Zhaoxu's help, but the more Bo Zhaoxu wants her to do something, the more she wants to tease and tease Bo Zhaoxu. As he spoke, Xiang Yeqi was still making a posture to break free from Bo Zhaoxu's arms.
"You really don't even give this king a chance to join the crowd."
Bo Zhaoxu knocked on the table, signaling that he was willing to take a step back, but Xiang Yeqi wanted to sit peacefully in his arms for a while.
"Now that he has pushed the charges out, he must be most worried about the evidence in the hands of you and the king, so you can count him by handing him the letter yourself. You went to the door to discuss with the county lord of the Changchao Dynasty, saying that you wanted to entrust Lord Gu to hand over the letter as physical evidence on your behalf, and if the county lord of the Changchao thought it was appropriate, you would send it to her the next day. ”
Xiang Yeqi gradually became a little confused when he heard this, so he had to continue to listen to Bo Zhaoxu's explanation patiently: "If Lord Gu has nothing to do with this matter, he will hand over the letter to His Majesty, and His Majesty will investigate it thoroughly, but if it is related to this matter, this letter will be extremely hot for him." In the hands of His Majesty, sooner or later he will find out, but if he does not hand it over, then his conspiracy today will be overturned, so he will definitely choose the third way to take the letter, so that this matter will become a complete accident. ”
"Steal." Xiang Yeqi and Bo Zhaoxu tacitly said this word at the same time.
The pit in front of me is getting bigger and bigger.
But the scene in front of Xiang Yeqi was also getting clearer and clearer, and she found that Bo Zhaoxu's delicate trap was not used to trick herself at all, but a wooden sign was inserted, clearly engraved with "Gu Yanchao's special trap".
For Gu Yanchao, who is really involved, there is almost no correct way out, even if the apparent winner is Gu Yanchao, this game of chess is a complete death for him.
They knew Gu Yanchao's plans in advance, and they could have prepared a forged letter for Gu Yanchao to use to steal it, and once Gu Yanchao thought that the evidence was in his hands, he would naturally let down his guard in the future, and then wanted to use this letter to do anything, but it was very calculating.
Besides, it's a very valuable lever.
Xiang Yeyan felt that Bo Zhaoxu's idea was not bad, and the next day he went to Gu Yanchao with his mind and went to see Wu Zixi, who he hadn't seen for many days.
When she came, Gu Yanchao was not in the house.
I heard the maid who led the way muttering: "My uncle has always been very rare when he is in the house, but fortunately, our county lord is generous and never cares about my uncle." ”
Wu Zixi's residence is a little shabby, and she can't see any attention that Gu Yanchao attaches to her, and she can even be called cold, even the Jiupin County official will not let his wife live in such a palm-sized place.
These are all things that Wu Zixi has never mentioned.
Xiang Yeqi smelled a bitter smell of medicine from a long distance from Wu Zixi's residence, and there was a slight unpleasant smell of medicinal soup, this place was like a medicine refining furnace.
Recalling the last time they met, Wu Zixi also had a slight smell of medicine on his body, but it was quite light, and Xiang Yeqi did not pay attention to it, and today he was completely choked.
I couldn't help but ask worriedly: "The county lord of the Chang Dynasty has not been feeling well recently?" Did you take any medicine? ”
"The four princesses misunderstood, they are all healthy earthworks, so the taste is bigger."
The maid who led the way laughed embarrassedly, communicated with the people in the house, and then pushed open Wu Zixi's door.
An even more unpleasant smell of Chinese medicine poured into Xiang Yeqi's nostrils, and she couldn't help coughing twice, feeling that her face and eyes were smoky by this smell.
Wu Zixi shouldn't be comfortable, right?
Even the purple-clothed maid beside Wu Zixi who was helping to serve the medicine couldn't stand it, and was so anxious that she cried: "County Lord, if you don't drink it, it's not something that can be done in a hurry, it's still important to be in a hurry!" It's been less than a year since you got married, and my uncle will definitely be considerate of you. ”
Wu Zixi was retching on the side of the chair with a pale face, and there was a bowl of overturned black viscous medicinal soup next to him, he just shook his head when he heard this, and refused in a dry voice: "He wants a child so much, if I am pregnant, I will definitely make him happy......"
Xiang Yeqi suddenly understood what the "earthwork" mentioned in the mouth of the servant who had just led the way for him was like a self-deprecation.
It is those home remedies that can make Wu Zixi pregnant as soon as possible.
However, these home remedies often have no basis, they are all collected from hearsay, and it is a difficult problem to ensure its efficacy and even ensure its safety.
"Changchao County Lord, don't drink it yet."
Xiang Yeqi couldn't stop Wu Zixi's movements, if she hadn't caught up with this moment, Wu Zixi was afraid that she would have to force herself to drink the entire twelve bowls of colorful medicinal soup on the table.
"Nightshade ......"
Wu Zixi actually found out about Xiang Yeqi's existence at this time, which really made Xiang Yeqi can't help but feel how evil these medicinal soups are, so that Wu Zixi can be tortured like this.
The medicinal soup like purple potato porridge on the night in the middle was very good at finding time to brew it out - this is simply the standard poison configuration in fairy tales.
"Why did you come so early? Let you laugh, in vain I am still praised by the Queen Mother, the county lord of the Chang Dynasty, and even desperately believe in these baseless home remedies......"
Wu Zixi's face was as pale as a dozen layers of goose egg powder, she glanced at Ye Yan with some astonishment, her cheeks gradually stained with a little shame, as if someone had broken through some embarrassment scene, and it was a little difficult to adapt for a while.
"The county lord of the Chang Dynasty has only been married to Lord Gu for a long time, why are you so anxious to get pregnant?"
After all, Xiang Yeqi couldn't let go of his friendship with Wu Zixi, and felt sorry: "Is it that Lord Gu is not good enough for you because of the events at that time?" Deliberately making it difficult for you? ”
"Nope...... He's been nice to me and good to everybody. ”
Wu Zixi wanted to speak and stopped, and there were clearly several dead knots in her heart that could not be untied that made her breathless, but whenever others asked, Wu Zixi didn't want to say it like that, and she couldn't even say it.
can only frown her brows to death, so that people can see the muddy and unclear bitterness between her eyebrows and eyes.
The purple-clothed maid had seen Xiang Yeqi a few times, and when she was Wu Zixi's trusted friend, she complained about Wu Zixi's grievances: "Uncle is indeed good to everyone, but he often ignores the existence of our county lord, what do you mean by him?" I asked the sisters in the mansion that before the county lord got married, my uncle often stayed in the mansion! What now? I don't know if it's because of this, or if it's really busy......"
"Shine the flowers."
Wu Zixi asked people not to say any more, the maid named Zhaohua was not aggrieved and suffered Wu Zixi's resentment, and still felt sorry for her: "If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Gu often came to give the county lord a grievance, the slave maid would still think that Lord Gu was deliberately bullying our county lord and raised her in the outer room!" Even those messy medicines were sent by Old Madam Gu! ”
As soon as she heard the meaning of Zhaohua's words, this old lady Gu was not a good stubble.
Gu Yanchao's grade is there, Wu Zixi is considered to be married to him, and it is too late to hold it in his hand, how can this old lady Gu dare to bully Wu Zixi?
Wu Zixi's eyes gradually reddened, but he still didn't dare to say a word of hard work: "Mother, she beat me for my good." The Gu family's order was passed to Yan Chao here, and I couldn't cut off the Gu family's incense......"
Xiang Yeqi almost thought that it was the Gu family who had the throne to inherit, it was simply a sour smell of the remnants of the previous dynasty.
The mother and son of the Gu family are like a generation of PUA masters, so they can persecute Wu Zixi to this point.
Xiang Yeqian wanted to comfort Wu Zixi a few more words, but according to her posture of relying on Gu Yanchao wholeheartedly now, I am afraid that if she hadn't scolded Gu Yanchao today, Gu Yanchao would have known how many words she had scolded tomorrow.
We still have to lay out the plan first.
"Changchao County Lord, don't be sad first, how long have you been married? There should always be a suitable time for you to get your wish. Actually, I came today because I want to ask you for some small things, and I don't know if you are willing to help me with this little favor. ”
Wu Zixi didn't even think about it: "You said it is." ”
"When you came to the palace a few days ago, I told you that you intercepted a superstitious letter about the Chinese and Chinese collaborators, you should still remember, right? I heard that Lord Gu is investigating this matter, so I would like to ask you to hand over the letter to Lord Gu and hand it to Your Majesty in the hands of Lord Gu, and ask Your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly, so as not to miss the moths in the court. ”
Before Xiang Yeqi's words fell, Wu Zixi had already made up his mind: "This is Yan Chao's business, if you trust him, just leave it to him." ”
The balance in Wu Zixi's heart has already tilted to Gu Yanchao's side, after all, this is one thing that seems to be able to get credit for Gu Yanchao, how can Wu Zixi not be moved?
Xiang Yeqi breathed a sigh of relief because Wu Zixi had agreed to this matter, but seeing that Wu Zixi's face changed slightly, he asked with some doubts: "The Fourth Highness has more say in the court, and he has won the trust of His Majesty, wouldn't it be more appropriate for him to hand it over to His Majesty?" ”
Wu Zixi's suspicious gaze made Xiang Yeqi shiver all over her body, and she was even surprised that "Mrs. Gu", who regarded herself as the object of suspicion at this time, was still not the county lord of the Chang Dynasty she was familiar with.
