Chapter 77: No Need
Gu Shuyuan seemed to have made up his mind to teach the Jiang family a good lesson this time, and during this period, the Jiang Mansion also sent many people, but they were all blocked by Gu Shuyuan. Who let the Jiang clan encounter Gu Shuyuan's reverse scales this time?
Zhao Lin is Gu Shuyuan's reverse scale, and he will die if he touches it!
During this time, the Jiang family was also tortured in the miscellaneous room, and Gu Qinglai was anxious, but he didn't know what to do.
Without the Jiang family, Gu Jiuge's life was very leisurely. But how can there be fuel-efficient lamps in Jiang's mansion, especially Mrs. Jiang, when she was young, her means could not be said to be powerful, otherwise it would be impossible to climb from a concubine to the position of the lady of the main house, and sit firmly for so many years.
The people she sent were blocked by Gu Shuyuan one after another, but this didn't mean that she really had no choice.
However, in just two days, rumors have already spread in the royal city.
Gu Jiuge, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was pampered and arrogant, behaved recklessly, framed the Jiang family, used all means to demote her to a room, and imprisoned her sister-in-law, and tortured her in every way.
The rumors became more and more powerful, and in the end, Gu Jiuge had become a murderer who everyone shouted and beat in everyone's mouths. said that she is a beauty, a femme fatale, and extremely vicious.
However, Gu Jiuge didn't take these rumors to heart, because she was originally a femme fatale.
It was night, Mu Liang hurried by the moonlight, and his face, which had always been as calm as an ancient well, was dyed with a faint urgency.
"What happened?" Mu Liang asked in a low voice, he was just ordered to leave for a few days, and when he came back, he heard the rumors all over the city, he was worried about Gu Jiuge, and he rushed over before he even had time to return to the palace.
Gu Jiuge smiled when he heard this, and showed an indifferent look on his face: "The Jiang family mother and daughter have done all the bad things, but they are just giving them some punishment." ”
She spoke lightly, as if the rumors outside had nothing to do with her.
Mu Liang's thin lips were pursed, and after a long time, he spoke: "But what grievances have you suffered?" ”
He knew that Gu Jiuge had never been the kind of person who was vicious and rude, and she punished the Jiang family like this time, it must have been something that the Jiang family had done.
He spoke softly, with undisguised concern. Gu Jiuge's heart was sour when she heard this, and she couldn't help but think of the situation of being isolated and desperate in her previous life, no one had asked her like this at that time.
No one has ever cared if she has been wronged.
"No, it's dark at night, please go back, prince. After all, this is the boudoir of the courtiers, and you come and go freely without hesitation, not by a gentleman. Gu Jiuge shook his head and said in a low voice.
It was precisely because Mu Liang treated her with affection that she couldn't take revenge.
Mu Liang's face sank when he heard this, "I never knew, you still care about this." ”
He said tiptoe and flew out of the window.
Watching him leave, Gu Jiuge felt a faint sense of loss in his heart.
In fact, if someone protects her well, who wants to stumble and stumble on her own and be covered in blood.
Frightened by her own ridiculous thoughts, she shook her head fiercely, trying to shake off the inexplicable thoughts. She and Mu Liang shouldn't have been involved, so they can just do it here.
Gu Jiuge exhaled softly, ready to close the window, but who knew that as soon as he raised his head, he fell into Mu Liang's deep and uncertain eyes.
He...... Didn't even leave?
"I'm right here, not going in. Now tell me what you have been wronged by. He stared at Gu Jiuge's eyes and asked in a deep voice.
Maybe he didn't even notice it, I don't know when he started, his self-title when he spoke to Gu Jiuge had changed from "this king" to "me".
"Lord, I don't need you to take care of my business. The prince walked slowly, and the courtiers didn't send much. ”
Gu Jiuge took a deep breath quietly, and then looked up at him and said respectfully. The voice is flat and the tone is detached.
Mu Liang's brows furrowed when he heard this, he had only been away for a few days, how could Gu Jiuge become like this?
"Aren't you going to ally with me? I agreed. Mu Liang said suddenly.
As soon as the words fell, he himself was a little shocked. The reason why he had been reluctant to agree to Gu Jiuge at the beginning was because he wanted to find out what Gu Jiuge's intentions were, and he didn't want to rashly form an alliance with a woman who was completely a mystery. But now? He still didn't know anything about Gu Jiuge, so he blurted out this sentence.
Why say yes? He asked himself in his mind.
Probably needs a position, a position that can interact normally with Gu Jiuge, and a position that can make the two of them no longer separate.
Gu Jiuge raised her head suddenly, her eyes filled with emotions she couldn't understand.
After a long time, she took the lead in breaking the silence: "There's no need, the prince should have never heard of the alliance." ”
Gu Jiu Ge said in a deep voice, and after she finished speaking, she stepped forward to close the window, but she didn't leave Mu Liang the slightest chance to react, so she shut him out unexpectedly.
Sometimes, Gu Jiuge would secretly scold himself.
She was the one who insisted on going her own way and trying her best to get close to Mu Liang, and now she is the one who turns around and leaves without saying a word...... Or her.
Caressing the bracelet on his wrist, Gu Jiuge's thoughts became more and more chaotic.
In the Liang King's Mansion, Mu Liang's back appeared in the shadows heavily. The anger around the body is heavier, making people dare not approach.
"Master, what you have instructed your subordinates to do has been done. Those who spread rumors and ruined the reputation of the eldest lady have been dealt with. Nantian pushed the door in, looked at Mu Liang's back and hesitated for a long time before he opened his mouth and whispered.
Mu Liang nodded slowly and waved him down.
"Gu Jiuge, now that you want to leave, I'm afraid it's difficult."
He whispered in a hoarse voice, and then the candlelight suddenly went out, and the room suddenly fell into darkness, and it was impossible to see what was on his face at this moment.
Gu Jiuge didn't sleep all night, and when he got up in the morning, his face was very bad, which scared the two girls in a hurry.
"Miss, you don't have to worry. The slave went out this morning, and the rumors about you in the royal city have subsided, but it is also strange to say, the rumors were so powerful two days ago, why did they say that they were gone overnight? Huachun picked out plain clothes for her to change into, and then she couldn't stop talking.
Ever since those rumors came out that were unfavorable to Gu Jiuge, she would go out every morning to find out about the situation.
Gu Jiuge's brows furrowed when he heard this, did it calm down overnight?
Who else but that person has such ability?
"That's a good thing."
She whispered, wanting to laugh, but found that her face was a little stiff, and the corners of her mouth hurt a little.
"Miss, come with me to the flower hall." Huiqiu walked in in in a hurry, not even bothering to give Gu Jiuge food, and pulled her and walked out.
Looking at her anxious appearance, Gu Jiuge couldn't help frowning: "What happened?"
"Concubine Zhen is here!"
The summer sun was a little dazzling, and Gu Jiuge was a little dazzled.
In the flower hall, Concubine Zhen sat leisurely on the first seat. Gu Shuyuan led the people of the Gu Mansion to stand respectfully below, and Concubine Zhen didn't speak, so they held their breath and didn't dare to speak.
"The courtiers have seen Concubine Zhen."
Gu Jiu Ge stepped forward and saluted, his expression indifferent. She didn't use her brains to know what Concubine Zhen was here for, but she came to the door in person, and Gu Jiuge naturally needed to be more vigilant.
"Ge'er, you're finally here, come to the palace." As soon as Concubine Zhen saw Gu Jiuge coming, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to beckon her to her side, that affectionate appearance, if she didn't know, I was afraid that she would think she was Gu Jiuge's aunt.
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
Gu Jiuge stood beside her, looked at her and asked respectfully, "I don't know what happened when Concubine Zhen is here?" ”
"It's okay, it's just that I heard in the palace that my sister is unconscious, and she made you angry again, so I came to make amends to you." Concubine Zhen said with a chuckle, not seeing anything wrong at all.
In the end, it is a person who boiled out of the palace, and he really came with his mouth open to tell nonsense.
"Niangniang's words are serious, Jiang has been punished for making mistakes. There is no need for the mother to run this trip in person, the identity of the mother is respected, and the courtiers can't stand it. Gu Jiuge knelt down on one knee, folded his hands on his waist, and said very respectfully.
As long as she behaves in a proper manner, Concubine Zhen can't catch her mistakes, then she came in vain today.
When Concubine Zhen saw that she didn't give her the stairs, she hated it in her heart, but the smile on her face became brighter and brighter.
"Hurry up! You and Lai'er are sisters, Lai'er is my niece, you are naturally my niece, they are all family, why should you be so unfamiliar. Concubine Zhen's words are really high-sounding, if she were an ordinary person, I am afraid that she would have been fooled by her rhetoric and would not be able to touch the southeast and northwest.
"The identity of the mother is respected, and the courtiers dare not ......"
"Come on, come on, and see what Auntie has brought you." Gu Jiuge's words were interrupted by Concubine Zhen before she finished speaking, she couldn't help but pull Gu Jiuge down, and she actually called herself aunt between her words, which was really ridiculous!
"These are gifts from your aunt, and they are all rare treasures in the palace treasury. Of course, the Jiang family is at fault, but these treasures are enough to fill the vacancy of your mother's dowry, so today can be regarded as giving your aunt a face and withdrawing the punishment of the Jiang family. Concubine Zhen asked people to open those boxes, and then took Gu Jiuge's hand and said confidently.
She has already lowered her posture like this, as long as Gu Jiuge is not stupid, she should know to go down the steps she gave at this time, otherwise...... The consequences were not something she could afford.
"Thank you for your kindness, everything in the palace is naturally excellent. It's just that the things of the mother's relatives are unique to the courtiers, and they can't be replaced with any number of rare treasures. The Jiang family is ridiculously wrong this time, if it is not punished, it will inevitably encourage evil winds, if so, it will be difficult to manage the prime minister's mansion in the future. ”
Gu Jiuge opened his mouth and said lightly, his tone was neither humble nor arrogant, it actually meant that he was going to fight to the end with Concubine Zhen!
Seeing Gu Jiuge's stubbornness, the smile on Concubine Zhen's face finally cooled.
"Gu Jiuge, there is only one sentence in this palace today. This person, do you want to let it go or not? ”
With a wave of her sleeves, Concubine Zhen asked in a cold voice, her tone full of threats.
