Chapter 400: Aunt Liu asks for help from her uncle

Sure enough, when I went to Gu Mansion to look for it again, I found that Aunt Liu had disappeared, and I didn't know when she escaped or where she went.

The leader of the Yuyun Army was very guilty of himself, "Your Majesty gave me this task, but I didn't complete it, even such a woman who was raised in the back house could easily escape, I was too derelict in my duty." If it weren't for Master Gu, you would have asked, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found out. ”

Gu Wen could see his guilt and comforted, "It's not the leader's fault, if you want to blame it, you can only blame the Liu family for being too clever." She cares about her son, and it is understandable that she wants to take her son out. Gu Yuan was stupid and intended to assassinate me. Unfortunately, I was not at home that day, but he lost his life because of it. ”

The leader of the Yuyun Army nodded, "This matter has nothing to do with Lord Gu, you don't have to worry about it anymore." I will make it clear to Your Majesty that I will receive the punishment I deserve. As for Gu Yuan, he trespassed into other people's houses, and Lord Gu's guards beat him to death, and there was no mistake at all. ”

Everyone thinks so, but Gu Wen is quite unhappy in his heart. Gu Yuan gets the punishment he deserves, goes to prison or exiles, even if he is beheaded, Gu Wen will not feel anything in his heart. But his death was so miserable, which made Gu Wen feel very uncomfortable in his heart, after all, he died in his own mansion and was still beaten to death.

He asked people not to track down the reason for Gu Yuan's escape, originally wanting to save Aunt Liu's life. Who knew that Aunt Liu didn't let people pick up Gu Yuan, but escaped by herself. Now that the leader of the Yuyun Army has also taken the responsibility of dereliction of duty, I am afraid that Aunt Liu will not have a good time after she is found.

Gu Wen thought so and sighed silently.

Aunt Liu was indeed hiding in Tibet, she was obviously going to buy some necessary daily necessities that day, who would have thought that Gu Yuan would sneak out? She later regretted it very much, why did she leave her son in the inn. He is so small and simple, he is not Gu Wen's opponent at all.

Yes, in Aunt Liu's eyes, although Gu Yuan has an arrogant and domineering personality, he is also simple. Because they grew up pampered, they didn't suffer any grievances, and they wanted things to be simpler. Gu Wen provoked him, and he naturally wanted to take revenge. But they didn't take into account their own situation. I didn't expect that Gu Wen would be so ruthless!

Let people beat their own brother to death!

Aunt Liu couldn't remember that when they framed Gu Wen and imprisoned him, Gu Yuan had beaten him so hard. She only has such a son, and after being disappointed in Gu Cai, she put all her attention on her son. Gu Yuan's death is not only the death of a son, but also the destruction of her hope in this life, how can people not hate?!

Aunt Liu was extremely grief-stricken, and her nails dug into the flesh fiercely, "Gu Wen! I'm going to make you die a good death!" Give me my life! ”

She is not a woman from a poor family, although her status is not as good as Gu Cai, but her mother's family also takes care of her, otherwise she would not dare to be so arrogant.

Aunt Liu's mother forcibly eloped for love and married a man, but the man betrayed her. After the two reconciled, Aunt Liu's mother married her future husband and gave birth to Aunt Liu.

Her mother's family was originally an official, and her grandfather's generation was quite appreciated by the emperor, but it didn't work anymore. Aunt Liu's mother eloped like this, which was considered to be a loss of her mother's face, and the relationship did not get much better later.

Aunt Liu is surnamed by her mother, and in addition to this daughter who ran out in their Liu family, they also have a good son. is Aunt Liu's uncle - Liu Xuan.

Liu Xuan is still an official in the court, and his work is not big or small, not as good as Gu Wen, but he can still see it. If it was usual when Gu Wen had not yet fallen, Aunt Liu categorically looked down on this uncle, and even felt that she didn't like her uncle because of her mother's bad relationship with him.

But now is a special period, her mother is dead, and Aunt Liu used to rely on her husband and son, but now she has no support. Gu Wen is not easy to overthrow, only his uncle, who is also an official in the court, has this ability.

Gu Yuan died, Aunt Liu was sad and hated Gu Wen, and she didn't care about anything else, she packed up her softness and went to Liu Xuan.

At the beginning, Liu Xuan was reluctant to let her enter the door, but it was Aunt Liu who made a lot of noise at the door, "What kind of world is this!" My uncle didn't even see his only niece! Speaking out makes people laugh out of their big teeth! ”

If she was noisy, she would forget it, and she was still patting her thighs with a handful of snot and tears, and the housekeeper really had no choice, so she went to ask Liu Xuan and brought people in.

Liu Xuan took a sip of tea, and looked at Aunt Liu below with a masked smile, once upon a time, the two of them also faced their mother's family with such a high-spirited attitude. His only sister can occasionally show a little affection, but this niece has little affection for them because she is raised outside, so she has little contact with them.

Later, because he married Gu Wen, a big official, he looked down on them even more.

Liu Xuan's current appearance is comparable to that of Aunt Liu.

Aunt Liu was very angry, but she couldn't say anything. It's true that she was too arrogant and didn't treat her parents so kindly. Now I have to lower my posture. She has an advantage that she can bend and stretch, seeing Liu Xuan's appearance as a hypocrite, she knelt down at that time, holding Liu Xuan's calf and not letting go, "Uncle! You have to save me! ”

Liu Xuan was stunned by her, and immediately scolded angrily, "What to do?" Rise up for me, so that people can see what kind of system it has become! ”

Aunt Liu cried and cried, "Who will see it?" Uncle not only didn't let Yun'er enter the house, but also didn't let Yun'er get close to his uncle's father, didn't he really dislike me, a poor relative? ”

Liu Xuan's face turned red, like a pig's liver. Who doesn't know that Gu Wen has amassed hundreds of thousands of dollars, such people can be regarded as poor relatives, and there should be no rich people in the world.

Liu Xuan stretched out his hand and pulled her up, "Something to say, I have been kneeling on the ground and crying, what kind of system has it become?" Don't you think I'm treating you badly when you see it? ”

Aunt Liu scolded angrily in her heart, hasn't she been treated badly? She won't let her in at the door. But he still followed Liu Xuan's words, "Didn't uncle treat Yun'er badly?" Since Yun'er got married, my uncle and Yun'er have become much stranger. ”

Liu Xuan and Aunt Liu are both official, and they are both fake. After finishing a meal, Liu Xuan finally asked, "I don't know what happened to Yun'er when she came to my uncle's mansion this time?" ”

He had already thought about it, Gu Cai's whole house was sealed, and Aunt Liu was naturally gone, but now that she appeared in front of him, she was afraid that she had escaped. If Liu Yun asked him to intercede for Gu Cai, then it would definitely not be possible. After all, who can resist His Majesty's will? He had good reason to refuse his niece's impertinent request.

However, he still acted as a good uncle, and asked with concern, "What difficulties did Yun'er encounter and need uncle's help?" ”

Aunt Liu secretly scolded the old horseman, what difficulties did she encounter, could Liu Xuan not know? Gu Wen's status, how could he not know. I'm afraid I secretly rejoice in my heart.

Aunt Liu held the handkerchief and pressed the corner of her eyes, but there were no tears.

Liu Xuan said, "If it's for Gu Cai's business, then my uncle can't help you." As you know, this is an order from His Majesty himself, and I can't disobey it. If I intercede for Gu Cai in front of His Majesty, I'm afraid I will also be dragged into the water. Yun'er, do you understand? ”

Aunt Liu blinked, "Uncle, Yun'er knows." Yun'er is not for Gu Cai, but for Gu Yuan. ”

"Gu Yuan?" Liu Xuan was puzzled, "Didn't Gu Yuan go to prison for killing the prostitute in Qinglou, but it hasn't been thoroughly investigated yet." Uncle can intercede for you at that time, so that Gu Yuan will be punished less. ”

It is naturally simpler and more convenient to intercede in front of the emperor for a big official than to make a little move for the son of a family in prison. Therefore, Liu Xuan agreed very happily.

But Aunt Liu had tears in her eyes, and this time she really cried, "I'm afraid that my uncle won't have that chance to reduce my Yuan'er's sentence, my Yuan'er has been killed by Gu Wen!" He killed his own brother alive! I beg my uncle to make the decision for me! ”

"What? Gu Yuan is dead?! Liu Xuan was also shocked, why did he die.

But after listening to Aunt Liu, she knew that it was Gu Yuan who escaped from prison by herself, so forget it, she was so bold that she went to assassinate Gu Wen alone, and Liu Xuan didn't know whether to praise him for being brave or stupid.

Liu Xuan threw away his sleeves with a cold expression, "I can't help with this, Gu Yuan is doing it on his own, speaking of which, you are a mother who has not taught well, how can you be so stupid!" ”

Liu Xuan's expression greatly stabbed Aunt Liu, she felt that her maternal uncle not only did not help, but also sneered, which was really excessive. But she also had Liu Xuan's handle in her hand, so she immediately wiped her tears and stood up, "This uncle has to help, and if you don't help, you have to help!" Don't forget what your uncle did! I know all of this! If you want to be left alone and let my poor child die in vain, then I don't mind letting my uncle die with me! ”

"You!" Liu Xuan was speechless.

Aunt Liu sneered, "Uncle can try, I can go out and report to the official now!" ”

Liu Xuan walked around angrily, and finally asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Aunt Liu said, "My son was killed by Gu Wen, and I asked my uncle to help me bring Gu Wen down." I want him dead too! ”

Liu Xuan was shocked, he only thought that Aunt Liu wanted him to avenge his son, at most he would beat the guard to death, but it was not easy to bring Gu Wen down. The most important thing is that Gu Wen has the emperor, Xue Rou, and Yuan Jun behind him.

None of them are easy to mess with. The emperor is young, but he is smart and majestic, Xue Rou has the idea of being able to influence the emperor, and Yuan Junfeng is even more powerful, holding heavy troops. The person who offended Gu Wen before, Gu Yuan was already dead, and Gu Cai was grounded. It is enough to see the danger.

Liu Xuan wanted to refuse, but Aunt Liu seemed to see it and hooked her lips coldly, "Then Yun'er won't bother, let's go to the county government first." ”
