Chapter 359: I can't hold my breath

I don't know how Lu Cheng talked to Gu Ziheng, but within two days, it was rumored that the new champion was going to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors and move the graves of his parents by the way. When Gu Zhuangyuan's parents drowned, the aunt and nephew tried their best to barely bury the two of them, but it was not decent. Now the title of Gu Zhuangyuan's gold list is also a matter of honoring the ancestors, and moving the grave and repairing the tomb can be regarded as comforting the soul of the parents in the sky.

As soon as this news came out, some people in Binh Duong Mansion couldn't sit still.

Naturally, some people in the imperial capital couldn't sit still.

Inside King Yu's Mansion, Lu Yuan looked at He Yiqing, who was calmly and leisurely drinking tea in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a nameless fire: "When is it, you still have the heart to drink tea here." At the beginning, I said that I would find a way to suppress that Gu Ziheng and not let him be the champion, but you just said that he was just a pawn, and it was not worth our manpower and material efforts at all, Now you see, he has just become the champion, and he is going to move the grave for his parents. If you let him know that my mother and your mother joined forces to buy off Gu Guards to assassinate Empress Herui, and then tried to kill his parents afterwards, do you think he can spare us?"

He Yiqing raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lu Yuan, with his strength, he often boasted of his unparalleled wisdom, and he was really laughable and generous.

"What do you mean by that?" Lu Yuan could naturally see the disdain in He Yiqing's eyes, but it was the eldest princess Zhaoxing and his mother Qing Concubine who did this back then, all of this was just an example of the conspiracy between the chief princess of the pavilion Tao and Mrs. Wang in the Western Han Dynasty, he promised to marry He Ping'an as his wife, and the eldest princess Zhaoxing naturally had to think about him as a good son-in-law, so of course she had to do everything possible to make him her concubine.

If Lu Yuan wants to be a concubine, he must first make the Li family the queen, and the biggest stumbling block is nothing less than Queen Herui.

But the cruelest reality now is that even if Empress Herui is gone, his father would rather make a woman who can't give birth to a child be the queen than set up his own mother who gave birth to the eldest son. Even if Empress Chen was later deposed and the phoenix position in the harem was vacant, his mother concubine was still grounded in Jinse Palace.

The mother concubine can't count on it at all, and now if she wants to solve this matter, she has to focus on her aunt, Princess Zhaoxing: "What did my aunt say?"

"You also said, Gu Zhuangyuan didn't know about this matter, how old was he back then? How did he know such a thing? What's more, don't forget, when he framed Queen Herui, Gu Zhuangyuan's father was also a person who was directly involved, if he was really stabbed, then Gu Guard's guard would be a sinner who killed the queen through the ages. Don't look at that Gu Ziheng won the champion at a young age, but that career has just begun...... Do you think that even if Gu Ziheng knew about this, he would dare to gamble with his good future to avenge his father who committed a heinous crime?"

Lu Yuan stopped talking, He Yiqing was different from Chen Ao in the end. Chen Ao asked for something, so he complimented him everywhere. But when he came to He Yiqing, it became that he wanted to ask for everything. Thinking of He Yiqing's impatient look, he felt annoyed in his heart. It is true that He Yiqing's inferences are good, but Lu Yuan is still worried, and for some reason, he always feels that he is becoming more and more uneasy in his heart.

What He Yiqing couldn't get used to the most was that Lu Yuan was worried even though he had a good chance of winning, and raised his eyelids: "Since you feel unstable in your heart, you might as well let there be fewer people who intervened in this matter back then." When someone was arranged, he went to kill Gu Guard, but Qing Concubine Niangniang did it. If my mother remembers correctly, it should be the Gong Governor Mansion of Pingyang Mansion, right? Don't forget, the Queen Mother is the aunt of Qing Concubine Niangniang, but she is also her grandmother. What is the relationship between the Cao family and her, others don't know, you should still know. ”

"You mean, use the Cao family and her son and daughter-in-law to bring Gong Shishen back, and then ......"

Gu Ziheng has been arranged to work in the Hanlin Academy, although he is only an editor, but after all, he is the champion of the new department, and his future is limitless. He proposed to join the company later, and the reason was filial piety. Daxuan has always ruled the country with filial piety, and the emperor is naturally happy to see it take a vacation, and it is imperative to move the grave this time.

From the imperial capital to Pingyang Mansion, although it is not far, it will take some time on the road. Coupled with the relocation of graves, it is always necessary to choose an auspicious day of the zodiac. On the day of the grave move, nearly a month had passed.

It was the beginning of June, and the weather was already a little hot. Gu Ziheng stood solemnly beside the tomb in a white robe, and when he and his aunt left Pingyang Mansion in embarrassment, he secretly swore in his heart that he must return to his hometown one day. Although this day came after all, he didn't expect that such a strange thing might happen in it.

Not long after, He Jiaqing also rushed to the burial place of the Gu family and his wife with a kind of official from Pingyang Mansion. The He family and the Bai family are in-laws, and Aunt Gu is the current hostess of the second room of the Bai family, so Gu Ziheng also knows He Jiaqing. Seeing He Jiaqing turn over and dismount, Gu Ziheng immediately bowed his hand: "I didn't know that the virtuous brother was coming, and he didn't greet him in person, and the younger brother was rude." ”

After that, he still raised his head and looked behind He Jiaqing, looked at it a few times, and then asked suspiciously: "Today, Governor Gong's mansion is entangled in mundane affairs?"

When his parents died, he suspected that this matter was inseparable from the prefect Gong. Because his parents had just died, the person who proposed to marry his aunt was a friend of Gong Zhifu's wine and meat. So this time, when he came back, he specially gave Gong Shishen a post, asking him to appreciate it. If Gong Shishen refuses to come, then it will be as His Royal Highness King Qin said, there must be something greasy in it.

"When Governor Gong received the post half a month ago, he also told me that he would come to give his virtuous brother a strong voice, but he suddenly received a letter from his son a few days ago, saying that his wife was seriously ill and was afraid that he would not be able to return to heaven, so he took leave to return to the imperial capital to visit relatives. Now all the big and small things of Pingyang's buoyancy are temporarily taken care of by my brother, and today I am afraid that only my brother will come to help him. Brother Xian won't blame him for being a brother. ”

Gu Ziheng shook his head, saying that he would not, but there was always a little disappointment in his heart.

But if Gong Shishen didn't come, it just made Gu Ziheng a little disappointed in his heart, and then when the grave was moved, everyone was taken aback - the coffin bearer felt that the coffin of the Yun family was obviously heavier than the coffin of the Gu guards, and he was worried that something was different. In addition, Gu Ziheng also wanted to know the truth about the death of his parents, so he opened the coffin accompanied by the servant.

After the very heavy coffin was opened, only a few huge stones could be seen, but there were no bones of the Yun clan!

Gu Ziheng sat on the ground dejectedly, although he had talked to Lu Cheng before, he had been mentally prepared for his mother's life experience to be a little suspicious, but it was not the same to be prepared and fully accept it. Suddenly let him accept that his mother, who had been in the ground for so many years, disappeared, how could he accept it?

In the end, Gu Ziheng could only rebuild his father's tomb in a few places, and returned to the imperial capital after staying in Pingyang Mansion for a few days.

The news that Gu Ziheng brought back was very surprising, and Lu Cheng also guessed whether the Yun family would be his biological mother and Queen Rui, but he didn't expect that there was no Yun family in that tomb. However, such inexplicability also brought him a glimmer of hope, if Queen Herui is really the Yun family, then can it also show that Queen Herui is still alive?

On the day Gu Ziheng returned to the imperial capital, another major event happened in the imperial capital.

The wife of Gong Shishen, the prefect of Pingyang, suffered from madness and will die soon. Governor Gong asked for leave to return to Beijing to visit, but was strangled to death with a rope by his crazy wife. The random crazy wife slashed everyone with a knife, including her son, daughter-in-law and little grandson, and finally hanged herself. However, a small magistrate like the prefect of Pingyang has become a shocking talking point in a place like the capital for a while, and within a few days, when someone mentions it again, there is only one sentence left to sigh "the family is unfortunate".

"Now I'm finally relieved. Lu Yuan sat in the mansion and heard the rumors about the Gong family told him by the people around him, he thought so in his heart.

He Yiqing looked at Lu Yuan who breathed a long sigh of relief there, and sighed in his heart: "It's okay that this person is so difficult to become a big weapon, it is always better to control a person who is moody and angry, but lacks resourcefulness." In contrast, people like the four princes who seem to be confused but are actually shrewd should stay away. In order to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, the mother took great pains. But his father, who had been played with by his mother all his life, is still in the dark. ”

However, He Yiqing was not pitiful for his father at all, thinking that he could become the most demanding person in the entire Daxuan, there were bursts of ecstasy in his heart.

"We're almost ready to act. Lu Yuan asked tentatively: "There has been news from Concubine Rong's side, and now my father is completely obsessed with seeking immortals and asked, and his body and bones are already getting worse day by day." ”

"Wait a little longer," He Yiqing always felt that some things seemed to be out of his control: "Is Concubine Rong a usable person?"

Lu Yuan snorted coldly, He Yiqing will always be like this, and he often trusts the things he arranges with his own hands. However, whenever he proposed a plan, he was always opposed. If he hadn't asked for Princess Yu Zhaoxing now, he would have turned his face with the He family a long time ago: "She has been in the palace for so many years, she looks favored, and she has the title of Concubine Rong." But after all, they don't have their own children. Although she is the adoptive mother of the third sister, she can't take care of her at all from the day the third sister married to Qianyou. What's more, now the third sister's bones are going to rot into scum...... Does she have any other choice but to support me wholeheartedly?"
