Gu Qingyuan learned about this on the road before he returned home.

It was getting dark, and Zhilan Courtyard was restored to peace. The servants in the courtyard were half swept away, and only a few servants were left to clean quietly. Gu Xiaodie wore a small jacket and sat at the gate of the courtyard in a daze, her eyes were red, and she seemed to have been crying for a long time.

Gu Qingyuan didn't say a word in the house.

The girl on the bed had fallen asleep, but there were still tears in the corners of her eyes. She turned her face slightly, and there was a scar on her pink face that had not yet scabbed, and she looked a little hideous.

Gu Qingyuan pressed the corner of his forehead, got up silently and went out. The little guy outside the door was waiting, and when he saw him come out, he hurriedly saluted and whispered: "Master, the doctor said that the young lady will not have a scar on her face, but she needs to recuperate for a few days to avoid any further mistakes." ”

"Hmm." Gu Qingyuan answered, and walked outside.

Gu Xiaodie sat on the stone steps, heard the footsteps behind her, looked back, and immediately stood up. Her eyes were red, and the tears fell the moment she opened her mouth, and she choked up, "Daddy, second sister, second sister, she ....."

"Your second sister is fine, just have a good rest." Gu Qingyuan patted Gu Xiaodie's head lovingly, and whispered comfortingly, "The injury on her face just looks serious, and it won't leave a scar." ”

"But why should the second sister be bullied like this....." Gu Xiaodie choked up, and suddenly threw herself into Gu Qingyuan's arms, pulling his sleeve and crying, "My aunt and eldest brother are in prison, and we can't even see each other....Now the second sister has become like this again...."

She cried with tears on her face: "Daddy, why do we suffer such a sin? Don't... Can't the fourth sister let us go? Don't... Doesn't she miss her family at all..."

Gu Qingyuan patted her on the back and said coldly, "Don't mention that person again!" Our Gu family does not have this kind of unfilial daughter! ”

His eyes were full of gloom, cold and cold like a poisonous snake: "Don't be afraid, Daddy is still trying to figure out a way." Your aunt and your eldest brother will be fine, and Daddy will protect you. He cleared away the haze, patted Gu Xiaodie's head with a smile, and said softly, "Okay, you have been guarding all afternoon, I'm afraid you're tired, go back and rest quickly." ”

After that, Gu Qingyuan ordered someone to send Gu Xiaodie back, turned around and strode towards the study.

The study was empty, and as soon as he entered the door, he smashed the things in his hand against the wall in annoyance, and said coldly: "What did Your Highness say?" Isn't there any way for His Highness to rescue Xuan'er so far? ”

"My lord, Your Highness is now being watched by King Xiao's people, where is it so easy to save the eldest young master, and besides, it is still an order from the emperor himself....." The masked man who appeared out of nowhere by the window arched his hand from afar, and his voice did not fluctuate in the slightest, "My lord, those who have achieved great things must have to give up." ”

"Your Highness is already very dissatisfied with the actions of the eldest young master, and I hope that your Excellency can do something that satisfies Your Highness." He saluted, whispered, and left the window.

The anger spread in his heart, Gu Qingyuan slapped the table, and was angry: "Since he refuses, can't I do it myself?!" Holding back his anger, he shouted, "Come in!" ”

The guard who heard the sound pushed the door and entered, respectfully: "My lord? ”

"Go and do something for me." The candle flame was blown by the wind and swayed, falling on half of Gu Qingyuan's face, covering his face like a demon in the dark.

When Gu Qingyue came to the study, she happened to bump into the guards who were leaving.

The guards saluted her, Gu Qingyue nodded timidly, and knocked on the door of the study: "Father? ”

Agreed, she pushed the door in, and the little maid behind her also entered. There was only Gu Qingyuan in the study, staring at the two people who entered the door with a calm face, and his tone was slightly impatient: "It's so late, what are you doing here?" ”

"My father came back a little late, and I think he was very tired. The daughter knew that in the past, there was always an aunt who prepared ginseng soup for her father, so the daughter also prepared a ..... for her father." Gu Qingyue wrung her handkerchief, a little uneasy. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Gu Qingyuan's face, and said in a low voice, "Grandmother told Qingyue to watch my father finish drinking." ”

Gu Qingyuan stared at the daughter in front of him and frowned slightly. He knew that Gu Qingyue had been taking care of Old Madam Gu in recent days, and since Old Madam Gu was angry and didn't want to see him again, it was also this daughter who would come to tell him about Old Madam Gu from time to time. It's just that she looks very cowardly in the end, just like her mother, and can't be on the stage.

The impatience on his face eased a little, but his voice was as unhappy as ever: "I know, you just take good care of your grandmother, don't worry about this." ”

The little maid brought the tray over, and Gu Qingyuan drank a bowl of ginseng soup, but saw that Gu Qingyue was still in the study, and couldn't help frowning: "Why are you still here?" ”

"Father rests early." Gu Qingyuefu saluted, and then left in a hurry with the maid.

The guards waited outside, and when they saw them departing, they went into the inner chamber again. Gu Qingyue took the maid out of Gu Qingyuan's courtyard quickly, and walked slowly around the path. She looked at the crescent moon in mid-air, and her voice was faint: "Go and pass the news to the fourth sister, saying that my father did it." ”

The maid blessed her body: "Yes." ”

Gu Qingyue stood beside Xiao Chi, and the little maid behind her had already quietly retreated with a tray. Her dress was blown by the wind, and a piece fell on the edge of the pool, staining the corner of the pool and darkening it.

Gu Qingyue stared at the corner of the clothes quietly, and a little smile was fleeting in her eyes: the entire Gu Mansion no longer had the same vigor as before. First Gu Changge's reputation was lost, and now Gu Xuan Dongqing is in prison, and now Gu Changge has hurt his face again, so who is next....

"Fourth sister, don't let me down." Gu Qingyue muttered in a low voice, her voice smiling.

………..

When Gu Mingxiu received the letter, he was studying the next step in the backyard against the chess game on the table, and Gu Liyi pestered An Ting to inquire about General An's past. An Ting lay on the small collapse, covering a book on his face, lazily napping and ignoring her. Mozhu was holding the tea, and his skirt swept over a fallen leaf, making a rustling sound.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Qingqing moved a chess piece, paused and moved the chess piece back, frowning and asking casually.

Gu Mingxiu finished reading the contents of the letter, his eyes were pale and he had no emotion. The letter paper in his hand suddenly emptied, and the man in cloth quickly skimmed the letter, pointed to the content on it, and smacked his tongue: "Your father is really not a person, he is his own daughter, but there is no improvement at all." ”

These words attracted the attention of others, and Gu Liyi stood up and was about to grab the paper: "What did the letter say?" Who's the letter? Qiao Wu casually raised it, and Gu Liyi, who couldn't grab it, blushed angrily, "Give it to me quickly!" ”

Shen Qingqing frowned and looked at Qiao Wu, who was making trouble, and then glanced at the people in the courtyard, and asked with a headache: "Why do you have so many people here..... but are they reliable?" The last sentence was slightly lowered.

In this room, the two people she avoids the most have the most sensitive ears.

An Ting didn't sleep anymore, threw away the book on his face, and the boss glared at Shen Qingqing unhappily: "Of course we and Xiao Xiu'er are our own people!" Who does this need to be avoided? If you say that there is any enemy, I will go and fight it! ”

"We have our own opinions about Xiu'er, but you two ....." An Ting glanced at Shen Qingqing, and when he saw that the other party's eyebrows were raised, he immediately turned his gaze to look at Qiao Wu, a little suspicious.

Qiao Wu teased Gu Liyi and glanced at her with a smile: "Little girl, don't look at me like that." He raised the letter in his hand and squinted lazily, "If you hadn't beaten Gu Changge this time, Gu Qingyuan might not have done it so quickly." Now because you hurt his precious daughter, he is now going to take the life of your little embroidery-ah! ”

Viciously stepped on Qiao Wu's foot, Gu Liyi snatched the letter from his hand and sneered: "Who is your little embroidery?" Bah! Who made you call me Sister Embroidery like that, stinky and shameless! ”

"What do you mean by that?" Shen Qingqing frowned and glanced at Qiao Wu.

Gu Liyi had already finished reading the letter, her face was ugly, and she handed it to Shen Qingqing: "Does Gu Qingyuan still have humanity?" Gu Changge is his daughter, isn't Sister Xiu anymore? Moreover... Besides-" Gu Liyi glanced at An Ting, biting the corner of her lip and not speaking.

The meaning of this glance is already obvious.

The letter was burned, and Shen Qingqing calmly made up for her: "It was Tingting who hurt Gu Changge, but Gu Qingyuan now wants Xiao Xiu'er to make amends for Gu Changge." She turned her eyes to look at Gu Mingxiu, her expression slightly gloomy, "Gu Qingyuan sent someone to kill Xiu'er." ”

Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Gu Mingxiu.

The girl with a calm expression was still studying her chess moves, frowning slightly, but her eyes were indifferent. Feeling everyone's gaze, Gu Mingxiu raised his eyes and blinked: "I think this step is good, maybe I can launch a way to live." ”

"Oops!" An Ting was almost angry with her, pinched the whip and stomped his foot, "What chess moves are you still concerned about now!" Gu Qingyuan wants to kill you, and the person who said he said his father wants to kill you! She was furious, "Let's tell Grandfather that it is!" Look how Grandpa cleans up that man! ”

She couldn't believe this letter, but Gu Liyi's expression was so determined, teaching her to understand that this letter could not be fake.

Anting thought it was incredible. Is there really a person in this world who would endure to kill his own daughter, but still for the sake of another daughter?! Such a person even got close to their general's mansion, and An Ting felt that he was about to explode!

"Qingqing, you shouldn't have burned this letter just now! We should show it to our grandfather! An Ting glared at Shen Qingqing and gritted his teeth.

"Cousin, don't be in a hurry." Gu Mingxiu smiled lightly, she ticked a few strokes on the scroll in her hand, got up and said lightly, "If he wants to do it, then let him do it." ”

"I'm going to kill him anyway..... too."

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
