Chapter 64:-for-tat
"This puppet doll, but when the court is forbidden, it is not allowed to be sloppy, why don't you let all the adults and madams here go to find out together, what does King Xiang think?"
Suddenly, someone stood up, and Gu Che recognized that this person had always been at odds with him, and he was a pro-imperial party.
Gu Che was about to speak just now, but he never thought that this person was just going to force him to agree, so he followed up and said, "Could it be that King Xiang wants to protect his daughter?" But also, Princess Xiang only left such a daughter before her death. King Xiang is so blatantly not taking the emperor in his eyes, this Xiangwang Mansion will ...... sooner or later"
The threat in this person's words was full of threats, Gu Che was depressed in his heart, and it was all pulled on Gu Feng, and he couldn't disagree.
"Wherefore I invite my lords and ladies to go with me, that if the thing is found in the little girl's house, the king shall kill her in righteousness and send her to prison, and if she does not have it, it will be a sin of slander. Lord Xiao is mentally prepared? ”
The adult who was called Lord Xiao was a little inexplicably confident, as if he was not worried that he would not find it, "Naturally, it should be like this, I have to say, King Xiang is really righteous Ling Ran!" ”
Gu Xiwu didn't miss the smug look in Jinzhu when he stood up and glanced at her, this Lord Xiao who was also suddenly in trouble was also very strange, as if he was deliberately leading her father to do this.
At this time, even she was a little unsure whether there was really a puppet doll in her house.
Now she can only pin her hopes on Cai Yin's body, she is fast, she is also smart, and she knows what to do, but she still has some faint worries in her heart.
Today, I'm afraid it's not so easy.
……
A group of people followed behind Gu Che and came to Gu Xiwu's courtyard, the men all consciously stood outside the courtyard, while the women waited in the courtyard, after all, this is the boudoir of the girl's house, and it is still necessary to avoid suspicion.
Jinzhu was brought in by the third lady Fang, "Didn't you say that the puppet doll was what you saw from the second lady's boudoir, and now in front of everyone, find it out!" ”
The third lady still looked gentle, and the deterrence in her eyes when she looked at Jinzhu made her feel cold behind her.
But in a blink of an eye, she still remembered the promise made by that person, and after today, she could completely leave the Xiangwang Mansion, and after the limelight passed, she would be the concubine of the prince of the Xiangwang Mansion!
"Yes!" As soon as Jinzhu's voice fell, he walked in with a familiar car, and under the supervision of his mother-in-law, he walked into Gu Xiwu's boudoir, and walked towards the box placed in the corner with a clear goal.
After rummaging for a while, she finally found something she had put in in a corner.
The most shocking thing is that behind it, it is still pasted with yellow charms, and it seems that some words are written in blood on it, but the mother-in-law did not dare to look closely, so they hurriedly walked out after taking the things.
"Madam, lord, I found something!" The mother-in-law glanced at Gu Xiwu not far away, and there was still some fear in her eyes.
As soon as the ladies saw the things in the mother-in-law's hands, they all stayed away from her beside Gu Xiwu.
Gu Xiwu's pupils shrank, she had never seen this thing.
But why did it appear in her house, that is, neither Cai Yin nor Aunt Su found out, by the way, Cai Yin?
She remembered that she had just asked Cai Yin to rush back just so that she could check the situation, but as far as the eye could see, there was no sign of her in the entire courtyard.
This made Gu Xiwu suspicious, but she was not suspicious that Cai Yin and Jinzhu were accomplices, but she was afraid that Cai Yin had been killed at this time, so she couldn't appear.
The things had already been handed over to Gu Che's hands, and Lord Xiao came out in time and said, "Now the prince has nothing to say, there seems to be something behind this, the prince might as well turn it over and let everyone find out." ”
Gu Che couldn't stand the fierce gaze around him, and turned the puppet doll over, but at a glance, he was about to turn the doll over, for no other reason, he knew this birthday!
"What is this doing, sir? At that glance just now, I looked like a person's birthday, could it be the one in the palace? ”
"Lord Xiao said cautiously, how can you say such things at will? It's this body, how can you find it at will! ”
Gu Che immediately reprimanded, this Lord Xiao is here to stir up this troubled water, in order to persecute him, he can say anything.
"Even so, what is the prince afraid of? Look at this prince, he seems to know the eight characters of this birthday, isn't it as good as everyone to talk about it? ”
This Lord Xiao did it so obviously, for fear that others would not know, and he would not deal with King Xiang.
How could Gu Che easily take things out, once they were taken out, it would not be something that could be explained clearly in a few words, although the whole thing was no longer clear by now.
"Father, I also want to see what is written behind this."
Gu Che tightened his chin, "What nonsense, it's not your business, drag that maid out, I want to ask her something!" ”
Gu Xiwu smiled, her father believed that it was not enough for her to do it, but the whole thing, it was estimated that it was coming at her, and she just wanted to stay out of it and seemed to be impossible.
"Since the second lady of your mansion has said so, the prince is hiding it like this, I'm afraid it's not big, right?" Lord Xiao spoke out at the right time again.
Wei Yunmo wanted to stand up and hug Gu Xiwu upset, but a pair of big hands reached out behind him and firmly grabbed his arm.
Looking back, it was his father, Wei Yunmo's eyes flashed with puzzlement, wasn't Gu Xiwu his niece?
Why is it that at such a critical moment, he is not willing to stand up at all, even if he says a few fair words!
The things in it can't be said clearly in one or two sentences, Wei Yunmo is too impulsive.
Gu Che looked at Gu Xiwu's determined expression, it was not that he couldn't, but he didn't dare.
But the current situation can't tolerate him.
Gu Che let go of his hand and turned the puppet doll in his hand over, Lord Xiao was the first to step forward and take a closer look, and suddenly said in surprise, "This birthday eight characters, it seems to look a little familiar, and it even uses raw blood, I don't know how much hatred it is." I don't know if Gu Xiwu can talk to us, who do you hate? ”
Gu Xiwu hadn't carefully identified it from beginning to end, and it was impossible to know what was written on it, so he smiled at Lord Xiao and said, "If you want to talk about hate, the person I hate the most in my heart now is naturally the person who put this puppet doll in my room." I can't think of anything else. ”
"Second Miss really likes to laugh, if you don't hold a grudge against anyone, and where did this puppet doll come from?"
"Is it possible that Lord Xiao's ears are not very good? Didn't I just say that this puppet doll was not made by me. Gu Xiwu insisted that this puppet doll was not made by her, and the expression on her face was even more unwavering.
The expression on Lord Xiao's face moved slightly, he didn't expect this Miss Gu Er, but he was still a hard bone, and he saw his intention to speak, but he didn't answer.
"It wasn't the second lady who did it, so who is it?" Lord Xiao asked rhetorically.
Gu Xiwu was silent, let the Jinzhu be dragged out, slowly walked to her side and asked, "What Lord Xiao said just now, why don't you help answer, maybe, you, a maid who has always done rough work in the yard, may be able to know how I did it." ”
Jinzhu's face was ownerless, and she was only responsible for putting that thing in Gu Xiwu's room.
"The slave doesn't know, the young lady said that the slave and the maid only work in the yard, and they are not allowed to get close to the house half a step in ordinary times, how can they know this thing, how did the young lady make it!"
Gu Xiwu raised a smile on her face, "Yes, then in that case, why do you know that this thing is in my room, since you just entered the house, but two breaths have passed, and you found it." Could it be that you put this thing in? ”
Compared with asking for guilt, this is more like a guess blurted out inadvertently, but it is this guess that makes everyone wake up, which really doesn't make sense.
Jinzhu was panicked, she was so excited just now that she forgot to hide it, her eyes were rolling wildly, thinking about words.
"Slave, slave......"
Seeing that this was wrong, Lord Xiao said helpfully, "Didn't the second young lady want to force a little maid to change her mind in front of everyone?" Since the thing was found in the second lady's room, why didn't the second miss know about it? ”
"Lord Xiao's words are so unreasonable, is it possible that you know anything in your house? Wouldn't it be ...... if one day an unrelated person suddenly came out to tell you that there was a puppet doll in your house?"
Before Gu Xiwu could finish speaking, Master Xiao strode forward and pointed at Gu Xiwu tremblingly, "You, you, you are a naked slander!" How could I have such a forbidden thing as a puppet doll in my home! ”
"Since Lord Xiao said that this puppet doll is a forbidden thing, and I, as the second lady of Xiangwangfu, can also be regarded as a relative of the emperor, why would I know the law and break the law to do such a thing? Why did Lord Xiao insist on slandering this to a weak woman, are you still worthy of being a parent official! ”
"Not to mention, I have been in the capital with my father for a short time, and the matter of this puppet doll is in the fiefdom, but I have never heard of it! Just ask, a puppet doll who doesn't know how to make it, what it takes, and how can it be made? ”
Gu Xiwu's heart is hot, she is really angry, after living for so many years, it is the first time she is so aggrieved!
There was a whisper just now, and under Gu Xiwu's loud words, it became silent.
There are even people who have secretly affirmed Gu Xiwu's words in their hearts, after all, Lord Xiao is too-for-tat for these two young ladies.
