Chapter 30: Revealing His True Colors
Xuan Lang didn't seem to expect Gu Jiuge to suddenly ask himself, he was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, Gu Jiuge had already walked away.
Mu Liang, who was sitting on the side, frowned, and looked at the woman's back from a distance, slender and weak, and in front of her was a sky full of people coming and going, indescribably lively, but her body revealed a coldness and loneliness that was difficult to approach.
Just now he saw it clearly, and when Gu Jiuge asked Xuan Lang, his smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes. The clear eyes were full of ridicule and uncontrollable hatred.
What kind of woman is this?
Mu Liang got up and strode away, blocking Gu Jiuge's way around the corner of the street.
"Is there something wrong with the prince?" Gu Jiuge raised his eyes and asked softly, taking two steps back quietly, widening the distance between him and him.
"This king is here to thank the eldest lady for saving her life." Mu Liang said in a deep voice when he heard this, he stared at Gu Jiuge without hesitation, as if he wanted to see her heart through these calm eyes.
"It's okay, the prince also saved my life." Gu Jiuge bowed his head slightly and said lightly.
Mu Liang frowned slightly when he heard this, but he didn't understand what Gu Jiuge meant, seeing the doubt in his eyes, Gu Jiuge chuckled.
"This letter was written by the prince, and the one who caught the culprit should also be the prince's person." Gu Jiuge said and took out the folded letterhead from his arms, and then looked at Mu Liang and said. She seemed to be asking, but her tone was very determined.
"You have a grudge against Xuan Lang?" Without answering her words, Mu Liang took a step forward, looked at her and asked in a deep voice. He would never be mistaken, he hated it so much, even if he wanted to ignore it, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do much.
"The night is dark, and the courtiers take their leave." Gu Jiuge frowned slightly, looked away, and was about to leave after dropping a sentence lightly. She knew how terrible the man in front of her was, and she didn't want to expose herself as soon as possible.
"Then what is the purpose of your efforts to get close to this king?" Mu Liang stepped forward sideways and blocked her way. He was now full of doubts, how could he let her go so easily.
"I said that I passed by by accident, if the prince doesn't believe it, the courtiers have nothing to say." Gu Jiu Ge said in a deep voice, his tone was already stained with some coldness. Gu Jiu Ge said that, he didn't want to go around with him, turned around and wanted to leave, but when he looked down, he caught a glimpse of the purse on Mu Liang's waist, and couldn't help frowning.
Almost instantly, Gu Jiuge raised his hand and ripped off the purse on Mu Liang's waist.
Mu Liang was stunned for a moment, and when she reacted, her hand had already grabbed her slender neck and pressed her against the wall. Mu Liang's eyes finally fluctuated, but it was an indissolvable coldness and murderous aura.
That purse is a relic left to him by the Queen Mother, and Mu Liang never leaves him as a treasure.
"Are you looking for death?" Mu Liang said, and the strength in his hand couldn't help but increase a little. Gu Jiuge's fair little face slowly turned red, but despite this, her face was still calm like a pool of stagnant water.
Seeing this, Mu Liang finally calmed down and let go of his hand. He became more and more suspicious of the woman in front of him, who could still be so forbearant and calm in the face of life and death, such a person was really terrifying.
But how did Mu Liang know that Gu Jiuge had already died once. How can the evil spirits who have crawled out of hell be afraid to die again?
"There is poison in this purse, and it will be poisoned into the bone marrow for a long time, and the medicine stone will be spiritual, and you will die." Gu Jiuge threw his purse into Mu Liang's arms, and after coldly dropping a sentence, he left without looking back.
Mu Liang frowned when he heard this, carefully examined the purse in his hand, and when he turned back, Gu Jiuge had already walked away.
Because he was entangled with Mu Liang on the road and delayed for a long time, when Gu Jiuge returned to the house, Gu Qinglai had already gone back, and he was kneeling in the warm pavilion and crying to Gu Shuyuan at this time. Gu Jiuge only felt a headache, and he was really too lazy to deal with these women.
"Miss, stay behind!" Gu Jiuge originally planned to go back to Yingge Xiaoyuan directly, but who knew that Mingyue was sharp-eyed, and when she saw Gu Jiuge at a glance, she shouted loudly, Gu Jiuge couldn't and could only go in.
"Daddy, but what's wrong?" Gu Jiuge walked up to Gu Shuyuan and asked softly, ignoring Gu Qinglai and Jiang's cries.
Gu Shuyuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw her like this, he didn't expect her appearance to suddenly change so much.
"Daddy, I'll talk about that later. Second sister, what's the matter, every day is either crying or making trouble, I don't know how much I think you have been wronged in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Gu Jiuge noticed Gu Shuyuan's puzzled gaze and signaled him not to worry, so he looked down at Gu Qinglai and reprimanded.
"Miss! You have to have a conscience! You deliberately pushed Layle into the water and made her ugly in front of so many people, and now you are pretending to be crazy and stupid! Although the Jiang family hated Gu Jiuge for discovering her appearance, the top priority was Gu Qinglai's overboard, and this time she must find a way to teach Gu Jiuge a good lesson!
"What does it matter to me that my second sister fell into the water? Aunt Jiang saw it with her own eyes? If not, who will give you the courage to frame me like this? Hearing this, Gu Jiuge took a step forward, leaned forward slightly, looked at Jiang Shi condescendingly and asked with a chuckle.
"So many pairs of eyes on the boat! If you hadn't pushed it, could it have been Lai'er who jumped off herself? Jiang thought that he was reasonable, and he became more and more unforgiving when he spoke. Seeing that Gu Jiuge was becoming more and more out of her control, she could only find a way to get rid of such a backbone.
"It's ridiculous, the second sister wanted to push me into the water, and after I dodged, she couldn't stand on her feet and fell, can you blame me?" Gu Jiu Ge said with a sneer, hearing her say this, Gu Shuyuan's face suddenly became gloomy.
"Is what the song said true? Are you trying to push your sister overboard first? Gu Shuyuan looked at Gu Qinglai and asked in a deep voice.
"Big sister! How can you be so ruthless, empty mouth and white teeth to reverse right and wrong! How could I ever have thought of pushing you! Gu Qinglai cried even more when he heard this, and Gu Jiuge sighed very annoyedly, knowing that this matter could not be explained clearly. She didn't bother to waste time on such pointless things.
"If the second sister has cried enough, I have something to say." Gu Jiuge raised his hand to stop her crying, and then said in a deep voice. After that, she ordered Huachun to pick up the clothes she had changed in the carriage before, Gu Shuyuan couldn't help frowning slightly when she saw this, isn't this the clothes that the Jiang family made for their sisters?
"What's going on?" Gu Shuyuan was puzzled in his heart, and couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.
Gu Jiuge didn't say anything when he heard this, but he just ordered Huiqiu to stretch his clothes open, only to see that he was passive on his clothes, if it weren't for Gu Jiuge's cleverness to tie it with a belt, he was afraid that if he moved a little, his clothes would fall apart.
Gu Shuyuan was slightly shocked when he saw this, where did he think that someone would do something on Gu Jiuge's clothes!
"This dress was prepared by Aunt Jiang, so let Aunt Jiang explain what is going on." Gu Jiuge looked at Jiang Shi and said lightly, since Jiang Shi and the others had to make a big deal about it, then she could only accompany her to the end.
Jiang Shi was stunned when she heard this, her hands and feet were so secretive, how could Gu Jiuge find out?
"Then Auntie will slowly think about how to explain it, and then explain to Daddy why she has been letting Peach Blossom hide my face for so many years." Gu Jiuge helped Gu Shuyuan, who was already angry, to sit down, poured him a cup of hot tea, and then looked at Jiang Shi and said with a chuckle.
Jiang Shi was caught off guard by her series of questions, and the original upper hand had no effect at all. Seeing Gu Shuyuan's face getting more and more ugly, Jiang couldn't help but panic.
"In vain I trust you so much! What have you done all these years! Gu Shuyuan grabbed the cup in his hand and threw it towards the Jiang family, he thought that the Jiang family was a docile and knowledgeable person, so he handed Gu Jiuge over to her to raise, who knew that she would do such a thing behind her back!
"Sir, it's not like that! All this is a misunderstanding, the concubine has been treating the eldest lady as her own for so many years, how could she do such a thing! The old man is discerning! Jiang Shi gritted his teeth and defended, as if he had been greatly wronged.
"Could it be that Ge'er will frame you for nothing?" Gu Shuyuan was also angry, and he didn't believe Jiang's explanation at all.
"Miss, if I knew that you were such a person, I wouldn't have agreed to raise you at the beginning." Jiang Shi pointed at Gu Jiuge and cried bitterly, she covered her heart with her hands and looked distressed, and before Gu Jiuge could say anything, her face turned pale and she passed out.
This sudden change made everyone unexpected, and Gu Shuyuan was also stunned for a moment.
"Daddy! Can't you see it? If the mother is not angry, how can she faint! For so many years, my mother has spent almost all her energy on my big sister, but now she is biting back like this, how can my mother not be chilled! Gu Qinglai was also a clever person, and he was busy hugging the Jiang clan who had passed out and scolding Gu Jiuge.
"Go back! During this time, let her recuperate in Hechang Courtyard! Gu Shuyuan saw that Jiang Shi had passed out, and he also knew that today's matter would not have any results, so he looked at Gu Qinglai and scolded coldly. He deliberately bit the word "rest" very hard, and the meaning of grounding could not be more obvious.
When Gu Qinglai heard this, he didn't dare to contradict him again, so he could only unwillingly help the unconscious Jiang back with Mingyue.
"Ge'er, today's events have wronged you, and such a thing will never happen again." After there was no one in the house, Gu Shuyuan looked at Gu Jiuge and said apologetically.
In the past, Gu Jiuge's appearance was covered, but now that he looked at it again, he found that Gu Jiuge's eyebrows and eyes were seven or eight points similar to Zhao Lin, who died early. Looking at her face, Gu Shuyuan inevitably remembered the old things, and his heart was full of sadness.
"My daughter has her father's support, and she is not aggrieved." Hearing this, Gu Jiuge had a bright smile on his face, and took his hand and said coquettishly.
"Alright, let's go back and rest." Gu Shuyuan looked at her with great satisfaction and said softly.
