Chapter 173: Half-truths
After the monk got up slowly, he looked at Gu Chao solemnly, as if talking about a dusty past.
"If the little monk didn't guess wrong, Miss Gu Jiang was the Miss Gu Jiang of the Gu family who was killed in Kyoto that year."
When Gu Chao heard this, she was so shocked that she almost fell to the ground, she stabilized herself, then her eyes widened, and even regardless of politeness, she pointed at the monk with her finger.
"What do you say? Do you know what you're talking about? ”
"The little monk is not completely sure, but according to the situation that the little monk has mastered, it can be said that there is a chance that it will be nine times out of ten."
Although Gu Chao did not get ill at this time, it was as if someone was choking her throat and she couldn't breathe, Gu Chao really didn't know those old things in Kyoto, but she also knew what it was.
"What is the Gu family? What the? Why were they destroyed? and Kyoto...... And...... What does it have to do with His Majesty today? ”
Gu Chao was almost incoherent.
"The Gu family was a famous family at the beginning, and their head of the family was the majestic general who guarded the border gates, Gu Zhaochong, but because they were suspicious of His Majesty, General Gu Zhaochong was strangled on the way back to Beijing, and his wife and daughter who stayed in the capital were also secretly executed, the eldest son was framed, and the younger daughter escaped from the capital, and it is said that she was drowned."
Gu Chao's mind was blank at first, she couldn't believe that such a thing would happen to her, but she thought about her name, Chao and Jiang.
Gu Chao once struggled, why did he choose Gu instead of their surname Cen although he picked it up, why did he take such a name?
Did Daddy keep his surname and change his name, and these two words are so similar!
No wonder my father didn't let him go to Kyoto, and he didn't let himself know anything about Kyoto, because he was afraid that he would take revenge if he knew those old things?
It turned out that the truth he had been trying to explore turned out to be such a bloody truth, and the enemy he was about to face turned out to be the master of the world.
But why is it that even if I listen to these things that this monk said, I still don't have any impression in my mind, and I can't recall half a minute?
Gu Chao tried his best to recall, but until his temples hurt, he still didn't have any memory.
Gu Chao took a few breaths violently, her eyes were already bloodshot, she slowly turned her head to look at the monk standing in front of him, he was blind, and grabbed his wrist.
"You!! How do you know? Why are you talking to me about this? Why do you think I'm Miss Gu? Tell me, do you have any plans? Are you trying to take advantage of me? ”
The monk was taken aback by Gu Chao, but he quickly stabilized his mind.
"The little monk used to be a servant of the Gu family, because he saw Miss when he was young, he saw Miss Familiar, and he saw the jade lock around Miss Neck, so he recognized it."
Gu Chao looked down at the jade lock around her neck, she almost wanted to tear the jade lock off, now go down the mountain and ask Daddy, didn't Daddy say that this jade lock was on her neck when she came? But it turned out to be the Gu family's general's thing, how could my father not know? Then he is deliberately hiding it from himself.
In fact, the monk didn't know that this jade lock was handed over to Gu Chao before Gu Zhaochong was dying, and it was impossible for anyone to see this thing in the Gu family.
He had only noticed Gu Chao's identity, so he deliberately said so.
"You are the servant of my former household, so you must have seen my mother and my father, what kind of people are they? You said that my father was General Gu Zhaochong, I don't know this person, so since he is a general, so majestic, why is he suspicious when he is stationed at the border pass? What is the severity of killing our whole family? ”
"Throughout the ages, those in power who sit on the highest throne are also afraid that someone will hold higher power, General Gu Zhaochong has fought every year and won great glory and military exploits, Your Majesty...... Naturally, he was afraid that General Gu would be proud of his achievements and gain the support of the people, so he could replace him. ”
Gu Hao's lips trembled and he said again.
"My father and mother, do they mean that? And the Gu family's son, that is my brother, my brother he? ”
When the monk heard this question, his face suddenly changed, and he seemed to be a little excited, but he still suppressed his emotions and said.
"The son of the Gu family was slandered and had an affair with the concubine Yifei in the palace, and he was killed with a cane, and Concubine Yi was ..................... and his youngest son was put to death......... Exiled, never to return to Beijing. ”
"Do you mean that the eldest son of the Gu family had an affair with Concubine Yi, and the prince he gave birth to is not His Majesty's biological blood?"
The monk was even more excited when he heard this, almost gritting his teeth, but paying attention to his emotions.
"The little monk has already said that it is slander, that is, slander, then these are all non-existent things."
"However, since everything is a fictitious thing, why kill such a large family? Your Majesty is so ruthless, are they all so ruthless? ”
The monk played with the Buddha beads in his hand and said slowly.
"The most ruthless people in the world are the royal people, everything they feel is dangerous must be eliminated one by one, everything they want to have, everything they want to have, the world is theirs, so who is not at their mercy in this world?"
"Why is that?"
Although Gu Hao couldn't recall those things, when she thought of these piles and her tragic death of her family, she couldn't help herself.
With such a blood feud, it's no wonder that Daddy didn't let him know, if Daddy would have known about it.
If she knew her background, how could she not think about it all the time, and how could she not think about revenge?
But now that his crippled body is known, he can't act immediately.
And that person, he is also the son of His Majesty, sure enough, the royal people are indifferent and ruthless.
His Majesty's father has harmed his family so badly, and now his son has come to harm himself again, and sure enough, this fateful enmity will never be resolved......
Gu Chao frowned when she thought of this unspeakable thing, and she decided to completely dispel this idea from now on.
"Then tell me, what are you trying to do with this? Do you want to take care of your family seriously, or do you want me to take revenge now? ”
After going down the mountain this time, Gu Chao has become much calmer, even if everything the monk said is consistent with what she once envisioned, and there are some reasonable explanations with her jade lock and her own name, but she still has to be cautious.
"The little monk used to be the Gu family's family. After receiving the favor of the general and his wife, he finally escaped at that time, and he could only hide in this mountain with his grandmother, and lived in seclusion, and did not dare to swagger in front of people. ”
Gu Chao stared coldly into the monk's eyes, trying to find clues of ill intentions in his eyes.
