Chapter 175: One Step Away
Yu Zhishuang was obviously also frightened by the situation at this time, she thought that she had bothered to calculate, at least she could completely remove the stumbling block of Yu Zhiyan.
She knew Gu Jue too well, even if he was disgusted with a woman, he would never allow that woman to fall in love with someone else.
Gu Jue's face was deep and a little terrifying, in the eyes of outsiders, he had lost face, and he should be angry as he deserved.
Yu Zhishuang looked at the dead man, and there were a pair of sneering eyes, and she understood everything in an instant.
If all this was not arranged by Gu Jue, how could he know that he was so embarrassed, and still led a group of people to watch here.
The horror on her face suddenly receded, and her eyes quickly returned to flatness, "Dong Lang, I don't know this man at all, I'm going to see the Holy One, so naturally ask him to be the master for me." ”
Hearing the word "Shengshang", Gu Jue's lips pursed slightly, and his teeth were bitten "gurgling".
"You deserve to see the emperor if you do such a thing, I'll clean up the door, and the emperor will blame it another day, and I'll take it myself." Gu Jue is such a cunning person, how can he leave her a chance to turn over.
That Yu Zhishuang looked at Lu Ge with a begging face, hoping that he could save his life.
But Lu Ge knew that the matter was getting bigger, and the ending was already out of control, and now he only wanted to protect himself.
If the emperor really made trouble, Yu Zheshuang would definitely tell the two of them about collusion, and how could Feng Huang let him go at that time.
In his heart, he naturally didn't want Yu Zheshuang to walk out of this room alive.
And once Yu Zhishuang dies here, no one will tell the unsightly thing, and Gu Jue is likely to be condemned for killing his wife.
Since this matter is in no way beneficial to him, why should he meddle with it.
He reached out and touched his stubble, and then let out a long sigh, "Since it is a family affair of your Chengguo Mansion, I, an outsider, can't meddle in it." ”
Hearing this, Yu Zhishuang's last glimmer of life was also ruined, and he couldn't help but say sadly: "You-"
Gu Jue didn't want to have many dreams at night, he just wanted to kill this woman as soon as possible, so he said to the little servant in the mansion: "Kill her for me." ”
The little ones looked at each other, and only a few of them were eager to come up, holding ribbons torn from nowhere.
A layer of cold sweat broke out in the palm of Yu Zheshuang's back, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes, "Mrs. Ben is Mrs. Gu Jiayan, who of you dares to do it." ”
When the crowd heard this, they had to take a step back, and no one dared to come up again.
Gu Jue's face was shrouded in the flickering candle flame, and there was endless killing intent in those dark eyes, "Then I will personally dispose of you." ”
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the scissors placed in the wire basket, smiling on his lips, but it was full of blood.
Yu Zhishuang wanted to escape, but she couldn't get out of the brocade quilt without an inch of body, and she could only watch the sharp scissors force her throat.
He was getting closer and closer to her, and she could almost hear his cold breathing.
Just when she thought she was going to die, there was a rush of footsteps accompanied by a shrill voice.
"Slow-" As soon as the words fell, he saw Liu Xuanwu coming in a hurry, with wind in his navy blue eunuch robe, and his forehead was full of fine sweat.
He is a person from the front of the emperor, and now that he is here, it is obvious that the emperor also knows about it.
Gu Jue's fingers "gurgle", he knew that he couldn't do it, and the plan he had been planning for a long time had fallen short.
Liu Xuanwu walked past everyone and into the house, only to see the corpse lying on the ground, as well as Yu Zhenshuang shivering on the bed.
When his shrewd eyes fell on Yu Zheshuang, he subconsciously muttered, "Why are you?" ”
His voice was very low, but Gu Jue listened carefully, and he suddenly understood, it turned out that this Liu Xuanwu was ordered to save Yu Zhiyan, and Feng Huang thought that such a big move today was for Yu Zhishuang.
Na Lu Ge was also full of worry, and hurriedly walked up respectfully, and said to Liu Xuanwu: "Why is Gonggong Liu here?" ”
After all, Lu Ge is the most proud person in front of Feng Huang, so he naturally has some skill, and when he saw that the matter had become like this, he said painlessly: "Since this matter has already alarmed the saint, naturally it can't be dealt with in private, just follow the servants into the palace to face the saint." ”
The scissors in Gu Jue's hand fell to the ground, making a piercing sound, and everyone in the room couldn't help but tremble.
Gu Jue's voice was full of Sen Ran, and even unwilling, "The emperor governs the world, but he still cares about the family affairs of my Chengguo Mansion, but he is really flattered." ”
Gu Jue and Lu Ge entered the palace together, and Yu Zheshuang also went together.
At this time, it was already dark, and the empty streets looked even more desolate, only this group of people and horses stepped on the thin snow on the ground and broke through the imperial city
The tranquility of the .
They entered the palace through the north gate, and the guards guarding the city opened the heavy gate and let the group in.
At this time, Feng Huang was already waiting in the Jinluan Palace, but he only announced that Yu Zheshuang and Lu Ge had entered the hall, leaving Gu Jue alone to stand in the wind and snow.
The two people who entered the hall had their own thoughts, but because Liu Xuanwu was in front, they didn't dare to discuss countermeasures quietly.
They didn't know the confused people, and naturally they knew that since Gu Jue could send someone, maybe they would have known their plan a long time ago.
When Yu Zheshuang entered the hall, she couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Gu Jue who was standing in front of the jade fence.
The two of them stepped into the hall, but they didn't feel half warm, but they saw that the fire in the charcoal basin had been extinguished, and the people in the hall were also cold.
At this time, Feng Huang was sitting in front of the dragon case and reviewing the folds, there was no expression on his handsome face, and when the two of them knelt down to say goodbye, there was no trace of waves on his face.
He held the cinnabar-stained nib of the pen and wrote on the fold, his hand moving extremely slowly, as if every sentence had been carefully considered.
The hall was surprisingly quiet, and even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
The two of them only looked down at the gold bricks on the ground, clearly reflecting the miserable white faces of the two people, and at this time, the remaining snow on their hair gradually melted, and the cold water drops fell to the ground.
I don't know how long it took, Gu Jue slowly raised his head and looked directly at the two people kneeling underneath, "I thought you were all smart people,
I didn't expect to be stupid enough to be in one place, so easy to be calculated, what do I want you to do. ”
Feng Huang's voice did not distinguish between joy and anger, but it made Yu Zhishuang and Lu Ge tremble, so frightened that they couldn't even say words begging for mercy.
Seeing that the two of them looked so frightened, Feng Huang immediately spoke: "I once told you that you can't calculate the cigarette no matter what, it seems that you have completely forgotten it." ”
Lu Ge hurriedly said: "Weichen was just bewitched by Yu Zheshuang, and she swore that Yu Zheyan had fornication with others, and Weichen was ordered to manage the Chengguo Mansion, where is there any reason to sit idly by." ”
Yu Zheshuang didn't beg for mercy, but just raised her head and looked directly at Feng Huang, "The people just ask the emperor to give them another chance, and the people will definitely let Gu Yu be defeated." ”
The light under Feng Huang's eyes flashed, "Of the two of you, it seems that I can only leave one." ”
Hearing this, Lu Ge knelt and climbed forward a few steps, his head almost hitting the dragon case, "Wechen quickly caught Gu Jue's handle, please give Wechen another chance." ”
Feng Huang sneered, "I have already heard of what you have done these days, you are powerful and blessed in the Chengguo Mansion, you only know how to be arrogant and lascivious, where do you still think about the errand I gave you." ”
Hearing this, Lu Ge trembled with fright, and only kept shouting, "The emperor spares his life-"
Feng Huang slowly stood up from the dragon case, pinched Chaozhu with his bony fingers, and then said to Liu Xuanwu beside him: "For me, Lu Ge is an honest official with outstanding political achievements, and he is specially appointed as the prefect, and he will go to Lingnan to take up his post, and his family will also accompany him." ”
Hearing this will, Lu Ge sat on the ground with old tears, this holy decree seems to be promoted, but in fact, who doesn't know that Lingnan is a place of exile,
And he also brought his family, but I was afraid that the emperor had made up his mind and would not be able to come back for the rest of his life.
That's it, he still wiped a handful of tears and kowtowed heavily on the ground, "Weichen obeys the order." ”
Feng Huang didn't look at him, but said indifferently: "Stand down." ”
After Na Lu Ge left, Yu Zheshuang slowly raised his head and looked directly into Feng Huang's eyes without fear, "Emperor Xie, the people will definitely not let you down." ”
Gu Jue narrowed his eyes slightly, "Today, I will scold you for fifty, and in the future, if you learn some lessons, the more eager you are for quick success, the more you will fail." ”
Yu Zheshuang's fingers trembled slightly, "I've been taught." ”
At this time, there was a trace of fish belly white in the sky, which illuminated this deep palace compound, and the red walls and green tiles in the palace were all under the vast snow, and the snow fell in the middle of the night, even at this time.
Gu Jue didn't know how many hours he had been waiting, but he hadn't even felt sleepy since last night.
He stood in the snow, his face white from the cold, and the hem of his clothes soaked with melted snow.
At this moment, he saw Yu Zhishuang being pulled out by several eunuchs, and then placed on the bench, holding a wooden staff and fighting.
At this time, Liu Xuanwu had already come out, walked straight in front of Gu Jue, and said in a sharp voice: "The emperor has a decree, and Mrs. Gu insults women's virtues, but the emperor remembers that she has a deep affection for you, and it is just a moment of confusion to do such a thing, so he will give him a staff of fifty, and no one will be allowed to mention this matter in the future." ”
Gu Jue looked at the endless snow curtain, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Love is deep, but it's really love." ”
At this time, the eunuchs had already begun to carry out their executions, and the sound of wooden planks hitting flesh and blood kept coming.
Gu Jue looked coldly, but saw Yu Zhishuang lying on the wooden bench, her thin body looked as thin as paper, but she still gritted her teeth and didn't let herself make a sound.
Soon the fifty rods had been beaten, and there were dots of blood falling on the white snow, which looked extremely shocking.
Gu Jue walked over slowly, the eunuchs around her had already left, and she was the only one there who was holding her body and trying to stand up.
There was mockery in his voice, "This is worth the ones you suffered at the beginning, and I will advise you to be more restrained in the Chengguo Mansion in the future, maybe I will settle the interest with you in the future." ”
The snow was still falling endlessly, and the blood that fell on the snow gradually faded.
Yu Zheshuang finally stood up, blood running down her trousers and soaking her embroidered shoes.
"Donglang, you will definitely regret it in the future, you didn't kill me last night."
***************
Outside the window, the snow was falling, and the sound of snow could be heard.
When Yu Zhiyan woke up, it was already dark, and before she opened her eyes, she felt a burst of warmth hit her, and it turned out that she was not in her small room.
What she touched with her hand wound was a warm brocade quilt, and even the fragrance was so familiar.
She then remembered what happened last night, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Gu Jue sitting on the chair next to her bed, her eyes closed, as if she was worried about something.
