Chapter 4: Halftime Break

Now that Gu Zichen has basically learned that Gu Chengjin and Gu Zidong did not doubt themselves from the beginning, but positioned this matter as a conspiracy against Gu Chengjin, which is why it will go so smoothly, Gu Zichen lowered his head and decided to hide it clumsily, so as not to set himself on fire.

However, Gu Zichen still had a question, why did Gu Zinan kill people before, this was completely a bad move, the gains outweighed the losses, but he exposed himself.

"Pei Ning, what Zichen said is reasonable, you are a ninth-level cultivator in the Cultivation God Realm, three layers higher than Zichen, do you remember the figure of the person who kidnapped you?"

Gu Chengjin seemed to have this question for a long time, but the timing was wrong before, so he couldn't ask it directly, so he naturally asked it taking advantage of Gu Zichen's words.

If you ask it, you will have doubts, and if you have doubts, you will not trust, and distrust is the greatest punishment for wives and concubines.

"Master, since the concubine married into the ancient family, she kept to herself, He Cheng made a mistake, how can you treat the concubine like this!"

When Le Peining heard Gu Chengjin's question, he immediately lay in Gu Chengjin's arms and cried.

Although Le Peining didn't know about the emotional offensive, she gave full play to the woman's nature, so that Gu Chengjin, who was sitting in the main hall, was in a dilemma, and he couldn't advance or retreat.

"Aunt Seven, my father was also forced to ask, not to suspect my aunt. Indeed, the persecution of those in the shadows is too great, and it must be found out as soon as possible, and there is no time to delay. lest the secret person take advantage of this incident to damage the reputation of his father, and I hope that my aunt will not think too much, carefully review the events before and after, and find a trace of clues. ”

Gu Zidong saw Gu Chengjin's embarrassment, waited for the seventh aunt to vent for a while, took a few steps forward, and Lang Sheng relieved Gu Chengjin.

"The eldest young master is right, it's my aunt who lost my temper. Le Pei Ning bowed and replied in a low voice. Le Pei Ning moved a little closer to Gu Chengjin, and continued coquettishly:

"Master, Ning Er was restless tonight, after dinner, she wanted to take a walk alone in Ziguiyuan, who would have thought, a breeze blew, Ning Er was controlled by the thieves scattered in the air, in a daze, Ning Er saw that the person was thin, like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy. After Ning Er woke up, she happened to see that she was sleeping in the same bed as Young Master Zichen, so she thought that Young Master Zichen did it, and as for other clues, Ning Er really didn't know. ”

After Le Peining finished narrating, he seemed to have been greatly wronged, and he lay on Gu Chengjin's body and sobbed, his voice was crisp, and there was a charm in his crying.

"Fifth brother, what about you, from beginning to end, you haven't told everyone why Aunt Seven will appear at your bedside. Gu Zinan seemed to have found a gap and unceremoniously questioned Gu Zichen.

Gu Chengjin, Gu Zidong and Gao Yi's faces changed slightly, and their eyes were full of disbelief when they looked at Gu Zinan.

Gu Zichen was even more shocked, looking at Gu Zinan's eyes as if he had seen a stupid donkey.

What Gu Chengjin is most worried about about this matter, of course, is that there is a ** thing in the family, once the incident happens, Gu Chengjin will bear unimaginable criticism, and his position in the Gu family will inevitably be unstable, and even be replaced.

Gu Zichen didn't understand the trick of this, but he only used the two means of emotional cards and joint interests to successfully get out of the predicament without a trace of twists and turns just by following the response strategy of crisis marketing. has already guessed that Gu Chengjin wants to make this matter a big thing and a small matter, and characterize it as being murdered by the enemies of the Gu family, rather than a bloody ethical drama.

Gu Zinan didn't know the current affairs, and pushed Gu Zichen, who had already jumped out of this incident, into the abyss again, which seemed to be a smart move, but in fact, he added to it, but he fell into it.

"Third brother, the younger brother had dinner tonight, and he was unwell, so he went to bed to rest, when you came, the younger brother had just woken up, and I really didn't know why the seventh aunt appeared on my bed. ”

Gu Zichen knew that this matter was not the point, so he was concise and to the point, and after a few symbolic replies, he stopped speaking, and knelt in place very honestly, waiting for Gu Chengjin's decision.

"Father, it seems that the seventh aunt and the fifth brother were both framed by thieves, if we hadn't reacted in time, it might have been spread. It can be seen that the thieves still want to splash dirty water on us through this matter, and we need to strengthen the defense in our courtyard. ”

Gu Zidong was worried that Gu Zinan would make another moth, so he immediately took over the right to speak, made a final decision, and qualitatively said about this incident.

"What Dong'er said is reasonable, Gao Yi, you cooperate with Dong'er to strengthen the defense of the house in case similar incidents happen again, it's late at night, go back and rest!"

Gu Chengjin didn't seem to want to pay attention to this matter anymore, and neatly characterized the matter as a thief's troublemaker, and hastily ended the meeting.

Gu Zichen stood up, followed Gu Zidong to salute Gu Chengjin, and then silently walked out of the main hall of Yangjing Garden. Looking at Gu Zidong who was walking in front, he hurriedly stepped forward and thanked: "Big brother, thank you for your kind words in front of your father, otherwise the younger brother will definitely be punished." ”

"They are all brothers, why do you have to see the outside like this, besides, you are also suffering from this unwarranted disaster, why is there anything wrong, walk around more in the future, contact feelings, don't always be in the hospital. Gu Zidong's face was warm, and he patted Gu Zichen on the shoulder and encouraged.

"Obey the orders of the eldest brother, and ask the eldest brother for advice if the younger brother has something in the future. Gu Zichen immediately replied humbly.

"Okay, okay, there are a lot of chaos today, big brother won't keep you anymore, you go back early, suppress the shock, our brother will discuss the matter of cultivation another day." Gu Zidong still maintained the demeanor of an eldest son, and ended the conversation.

Gu Zichen was very knowledgeable, and after saying goodbye to a few people, he groped his way to his small courtyard along the road where he was escorted just now.

With a stick of incense, Gu Zichen came to the inconspicuous courtyard steadily, knocked on the courtyard door, and waited for Xu Bo and Miao'er to open the door.

After a while, the courtyard door creaked, revealing a small space, and the old Xu Bo opened his cloudy old eyes, just opposite Gu Zichen's four eyes, and looked back and forth, seeing that Gu Zichen's hair was undamaged, and in an instant, he burst into tears, and trembled: "Young master, are you okay?"

"Uncle Xu, I'm fine, I was just scolded a few times by my father. Gu Zichen replied lightly, and then flashed into the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Qiao'er hiding behind Xu Bo, with two big eyes full of love, looking at him like a curious baby. But I should have cried before, and my eyes glowed red.

"Qiao'er, I don't know the young master. "Gu Zichen didn't follow the original Gu Zichen's old-fashioned character, as if he was stuffy. Instead, he took two steps forward, rubbed the little girl's little head a few times, and said provocatively.

Qiao'er's face flushed when she was provoked by Gu Zichen's words, and she hesitated even more, lowered her head shyly, and rubbed her clothes with both hands.

Gu Zichen got out of the big trouble, he was in a good mood, and he didn't think much of himself, laughed a few times, and walked towards his room along the memory.

Although Gu Zichen's status in the Gu family is not high, he is a young master after all, although the small courtyard is small, there are also two courtyards, and there are three masters and servants, which is rich enough.

Gu Zichen walked through the weeping flower door, and after a while, he came to the living room of the main house in the backyard, and sat on the top of the living room.

Looking at the two servants who had relied on each other for many years with care in their eyes, Gu Zichen's heart couldn't help but warm, and since he crossed over, he showed the most innocent smile and said loudly:

"Uncle Xu, Qiao'er, today's matter, the young master is just a bait to be used, fortunately, my father has insight into the situation and debunked the tricks of the traitor, and now it is fine. The two of you are scared tonight, and you don't have any cultivation yourself, so it's better to rest early, young master, and I'll go to sleep after thinking about things. ”

"Young master, in the past, Qiao'er waited for you to sleep peacefully, how could you break the rules. The two had never seen Gu Zichen so kind, and although they had some doubts, they were banished. Qiao'er even raised her courage and raised objections.

"Today's events are a little strange, young master, I want to think about it quietly, Qiao'er shouldn't insist. Gu Zichen waved his hand, and finally decided, quite a sense of pointing out the country.

Qiao'er still wanted to insist, but was pulled by Xu Bo, and the two said good night in unison, and went back to the front yard to rest. Watching the two figures disappear, Gu Zichen exhaled a breath of turbidity and followed his memory towards the study on his right.

Pushing open the door of the study, the room was pitch black, Gu Zichen's eyes showed a look of eagerness, according to the original Gu Zichen's experience, urging his own meridians, a flame suddenly appeared on the tips of his fingers, emitting a light blue deep flame.
