Chapter 16: The Awakened Gu Shuang'er
Yindu, the ancient mansion.
Just when Gu Xiao felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, in the Gu family, there was a person who was also silently thinking about him.
It's still that solemn ancient mansion, but in this ancient mansion, it has become a little joyful, and no one seems to be affected by a "traitor" within the family.
Just a few days ago, under the circumstances that no one could have imagined, the imperial court announced that Gu Xiao, a member of the family serving in Northern Xinjiang, had stolen secrets in the army, and at the same time colluded with one of the enemy generals of the Shi Kingdom to betray the military intelligence.
It stands to reason that the ancient family, which has been deeply favored by Wang En for generations, after the emergence of such a "traitor", the members of the family up and down should be talents with their tails between their legs, and there should be no such situation at all.
Originally, the top and bottom of the ancient family thought so, but when it comes to this, it can't help but say that it is really Wang Enhao.
In the case of such a "traitor" in the Gu family, Yin Jun not only did not blame the Gu family, but also deliberately issued an order to appease the Gu family, claiming that Gu Xiao's affairs had nothing to do with the Gu family, so that no one up and down the Gu family had to take it to heart.
At the same time, another incident happened that made the whole family proud.
A son of an ancient family from Middle Earth actually fell in love with the eldest lady of the family, Gu Shuang'er, and had officially given a dowry to Gu Ce, the head of the Gu family, planning to take Miss Gu Shuang'er as a concubine.
This is a good thing that the entire ancient family could never have dreamed of!
You must know that if a small family like the Gu family is placed in the Yin Kingdom, there are still people who know about it, but once they leave the Yin Kingdom, who still knows what the Gu family is. Actually, it's not just the ancient family. Even if it is Yin Guo, how can it not be so! A small country like Yin has eight thousand, if not ten thousand, on the entire continent, which is really not worth mentioning.
The center of the entire Star Continent is in Middle-earth.
A child of an ancient family from Middle-earth can become the uncle of the Gu family, that is for the Gu family. It's a good thing for pie to fall from the sky!
It's just a concubine, but it's not bad!
You must know that if a character of this status wants to accept a concubine, it is estimated that the woman who is willing to become his concubine can almost fill the entire Yin Kingdom, and ensure that all of them are like flowers and jade, and they are all more beautiful than the other.
After such a happy event, the entire Gu family was completely excited. When everyone in the Gu family walked out, they didn't seem to be affected by the family's "traitor" Gu Xiao, and they were all arrogant, as if they were all suddenly superior.
Well, it's not that it's superior, it's really superior!
It's just that when the entire Gu family was happy with this good news, there was one person who was really not happy.
This man is logically speaking. The one who should be the happiest the most!
The eldest lady of the ancient family - Gu Shuang'er!
In Gu Shuang'er's room, she was cold and beautiful. The whole person looked like a thorny black rose, Gu Shuang'er, who was sitting in the room with a sad face, and next to her, her father Gu Ce was trying to persuade her.
"Girl, don't have eyes and don't know gold and jade! The son of the Yang family can look down on you, that is your great creation. Don't be ignorant! Gu Ce looked at Gu Shuang'er, who had always been indifferent, and kept persuading her.
Gu Shuang'er still had that cold expression, as if nothing could move her.
In fact, what has happened these days really makes her feel that everything has changed.
Overnight. She only felt that everything around her had completely changed.
First of all, three months ago, one of her favorite people inexplicably turned against her; Immediately afterwards, this man left the royal capital far away and went to the northern frontier; After that, her father arranged for her to meet a man with oily hair and pink face, she hated that person as soon as she saw it, if it weren't for her father's order, Gu Shuang'er asked herself, she would never give this person a good face; Then, the person who fell out with himself for some reason became a traitor; In the end, the oily noodles I saw a few days ago looked like a gentleman, and he became his fiancΓ©!
All of this was pressed down on the shoulders of this girl who seemed to be strong, but in fact was very weak, and she was almost out of breath.
Gu Ce looked at Gu Shuang'er and didn't move for a long time, gritted his teeth, was ruthless, and said, "Let me ask you, do you like that stinky boy Gu Xiao?" β
For the first time, in front of his most precious baby daughter, Gu Ce lost his temper and shouted.
When Gu Shuang'er heard this, a trace of blush immediately flashed on Bai Yu's cheeks.
These days, Gu Shuang'er, who has always been cold and lonely, has discovered for the first time what kind of impact a person will have on himself after leaving his life. She could never have imagined that a person she didn't meet often, even when she was at home, had unknowingly become an indispensable part of her life.
Even, now, only when she thinks of that person, she can feel a kind of peace of mind, as if this person is the only brilliance in her life!
Gu Shuang'er didn't want to deny her feelings, she did like her cousin unconsciously!
No! It should be said that since she was a child, when she didn't know it, she had already begun to get used to this person appearing in her life and becoming an indispensable part of her life.
Faced with Gu Ce's question, Gu Shuang'er was silent for a while, and then nodded heavily.
She has always been strong, and she doesn't want to deny her feelings.
"Don't forget, he's your brother!" Gu Ce shouted.
Gu Shuang'er finally spoke for the first time in the face of Gu Ce's fierce shouting, and sneered: "If you really think that he is my younger brother, how can you design to make him a traitor?" β
This cold girl, at this time, finally figured everything out. Ever since the marriage that fell from the sky, Guce locked her in his room and was not allowed to go anywhere. But these days of confinement have made her think about everything.
Everything was planned for a long time, first to separate the two of them, then to accuse him, and even unknowingly plan to execute him. Then, he arranged for her to go on a blind date, planning to come to a wooden boat. At this time, Gu Shuang'er, who didn't talk much, but wasn't stupid at all, didn't understand why Gu Xiao would inexplicably turn his face with himself, because he had long known that he was mostly lucky when he went to Northern Xinjiang, and he thought that he was also a member of the design to frame him.
Thinking of this, Gu Shuang'er felt a pain in her heart.
"You... You are talking nonsense...... What to say? Gu Ce roared inwardly.
Seeing this, Gu Shuang'er sneered: "Father, do you really think your daughter is stupid? At this time, why can't my daughter figure out your plan? The charges on Brother Xiao's body were designed by you to put on his back, all to clear your mind about taking your daughter to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, isn't it? β
When Gu Ce heard this, a sickly pale immediately appeared on his face.
He didn't expect that his daughter had already guessed the inside story of the matter.
Gu Ce shouted in a low voice: "So what? Now that the wood is in the boat, you listen to me, you have to marry Yang Gongzi honestly for me. Now that the marriage has been decided, if you make any trouble, then the entire Gu family will have to be turned into ashes under the anger of the Yang family! β
When Gu Shuang'er heard this, her face turned pale for a while.
Indeed, even if she knew everything now, everything was a foregone conclusion. She may be able to ignore the life and death of her father who uses herself as a bargaining chip, but she can't watch the entire family perish because of herself!
"Brother Xiao, what should I do?" After Gu Ce left, Gu Shuang'er sat down on the bed weakly, clasped her knees with her hands, buried her head tightly in her knees, sobbing weakly, and a desperate murmur came from her knees. (To be continued......)
