Although Yuan Yan swore by it, Lin Jiaruo still decided to ask Gu Zhan in person.

When I arrived at Gu's house, I learned a shocking news.

"He's no longer from our Gu family!"

The person who said this coldly, Lin Jiaruo never thought that it would be Gu Zhan's biological mother.

"First for the abolished prince's lackey, and then under the traitorous king, such a flattering villain, how can he be worthy of being my Gu family's disciple?" The corners of Mrs. Gu's mouth pulled out a self-deprecating angle, "It's a pity that your eldest uncle is unwilling to marry Alan to my uncle......"

Lin Jiaruo walked out of the Gu family in despair, and his mind was chaotic.

Gu Zhan has been removed from the Gu family, and I don't know if the eldest sister knows?

"Gu Zhan was removed from the Gu family?!" Lin Jialan jumped up suddenly.

Apparently she didn't know.

"He didn't tell me...... How so? Even Mrs. Gu refuses to believe him? Why wouldn't they believe him? Lin Jialan was so anxious that tears welled up.

Lin Jiaruo hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell her: "I saw Gu Zhan on the street today......

Lin Jialan's eyes lit up, grabbed her hands, and hurriedly asked, "Where is he?" How is he? Leaving the Gu family, where does he live now? His injuries are just right, but someone can take care of him? ”

"He's with Cousin Allure." After Lin Jiaruo finished speaking, he looked at her quietly.

Lin Jialan was stunned for a moment, shook her head, and said, "No!" It's not the first time he's met with Allure, not to mention that Allure is the fiancée of his eldest brother, he's not that kind of person! ”

She said so firmly, Lin Jiaruo didn't say anything anymore.

"Do you know where Gu Zhan lives now?"

Lin Jiaruo shook his head: "I don't know yet, but I've already sent someone to inquire." ”

Gu Zhan's residence was not a secret matter, and he inquired about it the next day.

At dusk, Lin Jiaruo accompanied Lin Jialan to find Gu Zhan's residence.

Gu Zhan was recommended by the King of Chu, entered Zhongshu Province, and became a principal.

The military rations case has not yet been decided, and the people in Sinong Temple are still in prison, and only Gu Zhan is alone, who was not only acquitted, but also promoted two levels in a row.

Yao Shujing, who was demoted from the Hanlin Academy with him back then, died in vain in the edict prison, but Gu Zhan didn't know who he was stepping on, and he returned to Zhongshu Province, so it is no wonder that he was scolded.

Gu Zhan can be described as proud in his career, but he is pitiful in private.

He now lives in a rented ordinary house, crowded in a narrow alley with people in the market, Lin Jialan is so distressed that she almost cries.

The Lin sisters are all noble girls with beautiful brocade clothes, and they are already very abrupt when they appear at the mouth of such a dark and narrow alley, but before they can go inside, a more abrupt person walks out of the corner.

If you are born with a stunning appearance, no fat powder, no clothing decoration, you will not lose half a cent of color, plain clothes and hairpins, but she is beautiful and refined, and she is better than the Nine Heavens Fairy.

Xia Tingcheng, as Lin Zhizhi's fiancée, also wore filial piety clothes after the news of Lin Zhizhi's death came, but whenever she was mentioned, everyone praised her.

But who would have expected that she was wearing her ex-fiancé's filial piety clothes, and when she turned her head, she was mixed up with his best friend and future sister-in-law.

There was a cloud of anger in his chest, which burned Lin Jiaruo almost crazy.

Gu Zhan also saw the sisters at the mouth of the alley, and before he had time to react on his face, he was shocked by Lin Jiaruo's abnormal look.

He carefully blocked in front of Xia Chengcheng and said in a low voice: "You go back first, here I am." ”

Xia Qingcheng nodded, glanced at Lin Jiaruo complicatedly, lowered his eyes and left silently.

"You...... Are your injuries healed? As soon as Lin Jialan spoke, it was gentle and caring.

Gu Zhan couldn't help choking.

"I've heard about your family...... "Lin Jialan said, "no matter what, I believe you, they-"

"Don't come back in the future!" Gu Zhan interrupted her words when he opened his mouth, and his tone was cold.

Lin Jiaruo was instantly woken up by this cold tone, turned his head, stared at him fiercely, and said, "I also saw you and Xia Qingcheng together yesterday!" ”

Gu Zhan looked at her with a faint expression, and said, "That's what you saw, I've already returned the sachet to you, my jade pendant-"

After a while, the gaze that originally fell on Lin Jiaruo's face also avoided it, and there seemed to be a hint of difficulty in his tone: "You can give it back to me too!" ”

Compared with Lin Jiaruo's anger, Lin Jialan was unusually calm: "Can you look into my eyes and repeat what you just said?" ”

Gu Zhan turned his back to them, and his tone was still cold: "Since you have heard it clearly, it is useless to say more, between you and me, we can only sigh that there is no fate!" ”

"If you can look into my eyes, say the dissolution of the marriage contract again clearly, and say the things about your relationship with others again, I, Lin Jialan, will never see you again in this life!"

Gu Zhan's body shook obviously, but he still didn't look back.

"I've already said what I need to say, don't come here to look for me again!" hurriedly dropped such a sentence, and disappeared into the alley as if fleeing.

On the way home, Lin Jiaruo couldn't help but ask, "Big sister, do you still believe him?" ”

Lin Jialan replied without hesitation: "Yes! I believe in him! The tone was slight, with a bit of pity, "I don't know why he defiled himself like this, but he clearly didn't even have the courage to lie, but he was burdened with so much infamy...... He must have had a lot of ...... last resort."

However, what kind of last resort made Gu Zhan and Xia Chengcheng walk together so ambiguously?

Lin Jiaruo bowed his head and was silent, but he felt aggrieved in his heart.

If the eldest brother came back and saw such a scene, how sad would he be......

Gu Zhan did not restrain because of Lin Jialan's trust, but in half a month, the frequent meeting between him and Xia Qingcheng spread all over the city, and everywhere the scholars met, they could hear the voice of scolding Gu Zhan.

It wasn't until the beginning of May that an even bigger news came, and overnight, the sky over the capital was cloudy, and no one was in the mood to scold anyone anymore.

On the third day of the fifth month, Dingzhou was defeated, with a loss of 50,000 soldiers, and Xie Xuanhui, the commander of the Guanzhong Army, was killed in battle.

The Yan army soldiers are about to fall under the horse pass, only to rest for a few days, and capture the fall horse pass in one fell swoop, and then they can drive straight into the capital and take the capital directly!

In the face of more than a dozen battles against the Yan army, it is enough to prove that Zhao Bingyi is not Yan Huai's opponent at all, and Xie Xuanhui, the only available veteran of Daliang, was also killed in battle.

The Shenwu Battalion plus the Guanzhong Army still has about 200,000 soldiers left, but there is no commander who can compete with Yan Huai.

The Jingnan Army in the south dragged on for half a year, and was not called to the north to help.

On the side of the capital, the whereabouts of 500,000 stone military rations are still unknown.

But at this critical juncture of life and death, Emperor Yongkang issued a holy decree that puzzled many people.
