Chapter 013: An alias

The ancestral hall of the Gu family is very large, its ancestors can be traced back to the Eastern Han Dynasty Gu Zong, and then the Three Kingdoms to the two Jin Dynasty, all have Confucianism doubled, in and out of the general for the official, the ancestors of the Gu family to "the king to endure humiliation and bear the burden, the subordinates to respect and prudence as the festival" to teach the descendants, and to the Yongjia Rebellion, great-grandfather Gu Rong took the south to the Shi clan in Jiangdong to gain a foothold, became an extremely important hero of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Gu family under its leadership once again entered a heyday, became the head of the three Wu land scholars.

About the deeds of his great-grandfather, Gu Yu has heard a lot in his previous life, as a celebrity in the two Jin Dynasty, his great-grandfather's life can be described as a bumpy and legendary, "deceitful wine to avoid trouble" narrowly escaped the rebellion of the King of Qi, Yongjia Nandu suffered from the upheaval of displacement, if it was not for the grace of "burning" to people, I am afraid it will be difficult to return to his hometown, his short life has witnessed the rise and fall of the previous dynasty and the cruelty of war, so his great-grandfather in his old age, has been admonishing his descendants to "go to evil for good, and be virtuous", as a family motto to inherit.

Looking at the huge plaque hanging in the hall, Gu Yu calmed down, and there seemed to be a dark tide surging in his heart!

"For the sake of good and evil, and be virtuous", she failed to do this in her previous life, and she probably had more blood on her hands than the entire Gu clan, so she would get such an ending.

"Grandfather, Ah Yu has come back to atone for his sins!"

Two lines of tears slowly fell, Gu Yu looked at the eight big characters, and finally knelt down heavily.

In the dormitory, several butter lamps flickered scarlet, and the flame shadow reflected the silhouette of Shan Pu kneeling in the ancestral hall.

After Gu Yu knocked his head a few times, he took the pen and wrote on a clean book.

She hadn't practiced calligraphy for a long time, and in her previous life, she may have learned calligraphy from Mr. Jiao Xi, but most of them have forgotten, and the only thing she can remember is everything Huan Che taught her, including calligraphy and music training.

In today's world, people are good at talking, still style bones, advocating the romantic attitude of "trusting Xuansheng, far Yongzhuang Lao", and appreciating a person's talent and virtue lies in "Xuanxin, insight, wonderful appreciation, deep affection", and the standard of selecting talents is the first to recommend the attainments of "calligraphy".

However, how difficult it is to practice Wang Yishao's unique calligraphy, the people of the time said that "the tiger lies in the phoenix pavilion, the god of abundance", and its praise and influence are not only the most for a while, but even for later generations to be convinced.

Huan Che once said that she was the most perfect work of art he had ever created, was it because he needed a perfect woman who didn't even have the past, so that the Gu family would be destroyed?

Gu Yu's heart was surging, as soon as he wrote down a word, he trembled and couldn't write anymore, a gust of cold wind blew from the hall behind, his thoughts were blown up, and the person was a little sober, and then there was a sound of feet.

"Who?" The vigilance and acumen she had cultivated in her previous life made her blurt out.

Footnote walked in, and under the light of butter, she saw that it was Miaowei who brought in a basket of food.

"Lady, you have been kneeling for so long, you must be hungry, I'll bring you something to eat!" As he spoke, he put the basket in front of him, brought out a bowl of hot steamed lamb, and said with a smile, "Lady, eat quickly, you must love these dishes." ”

Gu Yu glanced at the dishes and snacks in the basket, and said suspiciously, "You didn't make these dishes, right?" ”

She didn't have a lot of money, and there weren't many ingredients in the Twilight Pavilion, but the dishes in this basket were expensive and extremely difficult to make.

Miaowei's face changed, she smiled, nodded and replied: "Yes, lady, this is the eldest lady's side of Wu Yu asked me to give the lady to eat, Wu Yu said, this is the meaning of the eldest lady, the lady is delicate and frail, and she has just had a disease, it is the time when you need tonic, the punishment on the face of the master mother is to teach, but it can't be shortened for the lady's food." ”

"Big lady?" Gu Yuli turned his gaze to her, "How could the food sent by the eldest lady be sent by you?" ”

Miaowei was stunned for a moment, and replied: "The slave was instructed by Chen Yu, and he made a few small dishes and quietly sent them to the lady to eat, but he met Wu Yu on the way, and Wu Yu said that the dishes prepared by the slave for the lady were too plain, so she took the slave to the big kitchen...... I asked the kitchen steward Li Yu to prepare these and send them. ”

Gu Yu glanced at the dishes placed by Miaowei again, and smiled silently in her heart, it can be described as very bitter, in her previous life, she was because she gave her mother Yu a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup made by Zhang's family, so it caused Yu's premature birth, and then Zhang's did not admit it at all, but took a group of servants and maids to Yu's Youlan Garden and arrested her on the spot, and several maids immediately pointed out that she was the murderer of the fetus in her mother's womb.

It's ridiculous that in her previous life, she always regarded Zhang's family as her mother, and even helped her secretly oppose her mother-in-law.

Old Mrs. Gu is the grandfather's house-filler, and the eldest uncle is the son of Mrs. Xian, the mother and son can be said to be inseparable, and even the Zhang family is not very pleasing in front of the old lady Gu, if it were not for the grandfather's favoritism to the eldest uncle, the power of the housekeeper in the Gu Mansion would not fall into the hands of the Zhang family.

However, she remembered that her grandfather died this year, and her grandfather was almost old, and he had reached the age of leaving the temple far away, and it was considered the end of his life, but coincidentally, after his grandfather died, her biological mother Shen also died of sudden illness, and the title of Earl of Jiaxing finally fell into the hands of the second uncle. Without the protection of her grandfather, her life in this Gu Mansion became even more difficult, and all bad luck followed.

Thinking of his grandfather's death and the death of his biological mother Shen, Gu Yu's eyes unconsciously shot a cold light.

Miao Wei glanced at it, and couldn't help but feel chills in her heart.

At this time, I heard Gu Yu ask: "Ah Wei, do you know that I used to have an alias." ”

"Alias?" Miao Wei asked, "What alias, why haven't you heard of it?" ”

Gu Yu smiled and continued, "You really don't know? My nickname is ......" After a pause, she lowered her voice and spit out three words heavily, "Night, Luo, brake!" ”

Night Rakshasa?

Miaowei couldn't help but shudder, barely pulled a smile, and said with a stiff face: "I really don't know, the lady was born so beautiful, how can she have such an alias?" What's more, the lady is not yet in time, and no one has given the word, who will give the lady such an ugly nickname? ”

Gu Yu still pursed his lips and smiled, turned his gaze to the butter lamp above the dormitory, and suddenly ordered: "You go and get that butter lamp!" ”

"What did the lady do with that butter lamp?" Miaowei subconsciously asked, but seeing Gu Yu's solemn face, she hurriedly said, "Okay, lady, wait a minute!" ”

Miaowei got up, walked to a shrine in the ancestral hall, carefully took a butter lamp placed on the side, and placed it in front of Gu Yu.

Gu Yu didn't hide it, in front of her, he took out a purse from his sleeve and sprinkled a little powder into the butter lamp, and suddenly, the flame in the butter lamp bloomed like a flower, and a strange fragrance emanated from it.

"Hey, lady, what kind of fragrance is this, it smells so good!"

Miao Wei sighed in surprise, but seeing that under the light of the flames, the lady's face flickered brightly and darkly, and there was a strange thrilling beauty, not to mention that the lady was still laughing, and this smile was quite a kind of majestic mystery and cold chill that the great priest overlooked all living beings.

Looking at it, Miaowei only felt that the face in front of her was becoming more and more blurred, both near and far, real and virtual, as if in a painting, and in the end, she only saw that Zhu Dan's exposed lips were lightly opened, as if she had said a word, but she couldn't hear it clearly.

And this sentence......

Gu Yu slowly stood up and said, "I need you to help me stay here!" ”

As he spoke, he straightened Miaowei's body, untied the light green robe on her body, and draped it on her body, and then quickly pulled her hair in a bun, masked her face with a black cloth, and her slender body was like a swimming dragon and jumped out of a fan cunningly, because she was wearing green clothes inside, so integrated into the night, it was almost as traceless as the wind blowing.

The two servants guarding outside the ancestral hall seemed to hear the sound of a rustle, so they looked into the ancestral hall, but when they saw a figure wearing a water-green coat still kneeling there, they also dispelled the doubts in their hearts and did not go in.

"There seems to be a bird flying by, did you see it?" One of the servants asked.

The other servant woman thought for a moment, glanced at the shadows of the trees in the night, the branches and leaves moved by the wind, and replied: "It seems to be, but maybe we are wrong...... " As she spoke, she sniffed hard and asked, "By the way, Lao Li, did you ask about a very special fragrance?" ”

That Li Yu also took a deep breath and nodded hesitantly: "Yes, I don't seem to have smelled this fragrance before." Lao Zhao, you said that these eleven ladies knelt here all night, do we really have to keep watch here all night? After that, he said to himself, "It's really strange, why do I feel so sleepy today......

After speaking, she turned her head to look at Zhao Yu on the side, but saw that the person who was still talking to her fell asleep on the ground at this time.

"Lao Zhao, this eldest lady confesses, we can't be lazy! You wake up soon......" Concubine Li was about to reach out to push Concubine Zhao, but halfway through her words, her body also weakened and fell to the side.
