Chapter 595: A Glimpse of the Truth
Although Lu Peng's life was saved, but the person became like this, an elder of the clan stepped forward to check it, and exclaimed: "I'm afraid this kid only has less than a year to live." ”
Several elders were also shocked, and stepped forward to check Lu Peng's pulse in turn, and the results came to a surprisingly consistent conclusion, it seems that the other party not only looks older on the outside, but even the whole body has undergone synchronous aging.
"How should this be, this kid has just married the eldest lady, and he ...... Alas. One of the elders sighed.
The faces of the rest of the people were also solemn, not that they looked up to this Lu Peng, but according to the original plan, they still expected Lu Peng and "Miss Gongsun" to quickly give birth to a child and let them teach.
What's more, Lu Peng is the descendant of Gongsun Huan who attaches the most importance to him, and now that the head of the family is not there, he entrusts them with people and weddings, but there is such a situation, and when the time comes, no one can escape from accountability.
Gongsun Wang had already secretly left, and the rest of the elders looked at another respected elder, feeling the gaze of everyone, the elder sighed: "You can't escape, you all go back and check some classics first, maybe there is any way to save it." ”
This is actually equivalent to giving up, they are all old pedants who have studied in the medical Tao all their lives, since there is no way now, then even if they temporarily turn the book for two days, it is unlikely that there will be any breakthrough in the current situation.
Another old man frowned and looked at the maid who bowed her head and was silent in the room, and asked, "Why isn't the eldest lady here?" ”
Today is obviously the wedding day of "Miss Gongsun", but there are no newlyweds in the new house.
The maid who was asked stepped forward and replied: "Returning to the elder, the eldest lady, she said that her uncle needed to recuperate after this difficulty, so she did not bother." ”
In fact, Yan'er's original words were even more direct, and she bluntly said that Lu Peng had become an old man, and the matter of the round house was heartless and powerless, and it was naturally meaningless for her to stay.
But this kind of thing the attendant did not dare to convey, and he was rude and did not say anything, and it was very rebellious.
"Ugh." The old man sighed slightly, and the rest of the people also shook their heads and sighed.
Now that this great gift has been completed, no matter how unwilling the two of them have become husband and wife, although Lu Peng is not a thing, but Yan'er did not hesitate to give up on him, or a little indifferent, now the two are afraid that they will not even be able to do it as a superficial couple.
But there is no need to worry about this matter, after all, judging by Lu Peng's current situation, the relationship between the two husband and wife is really limited, and it doesn't take more than a year to be widowed, but there is no need to force them to be together.
At this moment, Yan'er had changed out of her wedding dress, and she came alone to a well-guarded courtyard, and found an inconspicuous corner to wait quietly.
After about half a burnt of incense, a man walked out of the courtyard, and it was the mysterious person who had broken into Yan'er's boudoir two nights before.
Yan'er watched him go away intently, and then asked the maid with him, "Have you checked everything I asked you to check?" ”
The maid looked left and right, and then replied in a low voice: "Miss, it's all clear, that person's name is Wang Er, and he works in the kitchen, and he is responsible for delivering food here on weekdays, so he basically won't show up in front of us." ”
Yan'er squinted her eyes, she knew that this remote courtyard was a "cell" like a "cell" in Gongsun Shi's house, which was a place specially used to punish disciples who made mistakes, but in the past six months, no family member had committed a major crime and was imprisoned here.
But this doesn't mean that there are no people in this courtyard, for example, the little demon girl Qu Lianqin is locked up here.
Since this mysterious person has the ability to sneak into Gongsun's house, it is not an accident that he has to choose what kind of position he has to work in this most dangerous place.
Yan'er pondered for a long time, the dark clouds in her heart gradually dispersed, and the truth she could see clearly gradually became clearer, if she guessed correctly, this person may have been inserted by the Xuantian Sect to meet the little demon girl inside and outside.
"You go first and wait later," Yan'er suddenly instructed the maid beside her, "Remember, if you meet someone, don't mention that I've been here." ”
"Yes......" The maid stepped back, she was served by Yan'er's side, and in the past half a year, the master and servant have also made friends, and she is one of the few people that Yan'er can trust.
Yan'er had doubts in her heart, she had the courage to follow Wang Er, but the other party walked like a wind, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, so she couldn't catch up even if she couldn't catch up.
Just when Yan'er was annoyed, the second Wang appeared behind her quietly again: "I don't know what the eldest lady is looking for me?" ”
Yan'er was stunned, and hurriedly turned around and took two steps back, she stared at this Wang Er with cold eyes: "You are so bold, you dare to stay at home incognito, the elders of Lu Peng's poisoning are under strict investigation, aren't you afraid that I will let your head fall to the ground with a word?" ”
Wang Er smiled: "Is the eldest lady joking, this poisoned murderer is not just a mere follower." ”
Yan'er was speechless, but he still said strongly: "What you want me to do has been done, when are you going to fulfill your promise?" ”
Wang Er said sincerely: "The eldest lady has neat hands and feet, and I admire it very much, but Young Master Gongsun is the former young master, and now that Lu Peng is poisoned, his every move is bound to attract attention, and I am afraid that it is inappropriate to do it at this moment......"
Yan'er knew that although the other party was suspected of shirking, what she said was not unreasonable, but now being led by the nose still made her feel uneasy, so she turned her heart sideways and sneered: "You went to great lengths to sneak into Gongsun's house, it can't be just for a mere Lu Peng, right?" ”
"Oh?" When Wang Er heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly: "What does the eldest lady mean by this?" ”
Yan'er saw the other party's changing expression, and she was even more sure of what she was thinking, she continued: "Who is locked up in that courtyard, you know very well, there are many inconspicuous guys in the Gongsun family, isn't it intentional that you choose this place?" ”
Wang Er's eyes gradually changed, and he said with a smile: "Miss, you must know that Hui Yi is young." ”
Yan'er stared at Wang Er, and said in a condensed voice: "I only give you three days, I can't get what I want, I will tell the family about the arrangement of your Xuantian Sect." ”
Wang Er grabbed Yan'er's neck like a lightning bolt, his eyes were full of murderous intent, the latter had no martial arts in his body, and he was powerless to resist at all, but he didn't show the slightest emotion of fear, but replied to him with a sarcastic look.
"Huh."
With a slight smile, Wang Er suddenly let go of his hand and said loudly: "Three days is too tight, within ten days, the eldest lady will definitely get what she wants, so, is the eldest lady satisfied?" ”
Yan'er clutched her chest and gasped, looked up at Wang Er, and did not speak, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
Wang Er bowed down, which was a slight apology, but when he turned around, the murderous and cold in his eyes turned into a mockery of the fool.
