County's main favorite wife

Chapter 75 Gu Family

Gu Xuan choked up and said: "Father, mother just passed away, how can my daughter be in the mood to talk about marriage? My daughter still wants to be filial in front of her father for a few more years."

"Silly boy, you are not young anymore. How can you stay anymore? Your mother passed away, and it is logical that you have to observe filial piety for three years. But how can you wait so long at your age? Hurry up and decide on your marriage, and wait for you When the filial piety period expires, get married immediately, don't delay any longer." Thinking of this filial piety period, Gu Haozhi also felt that it was a troublesome matter.But Ming Xi values ​​filial piety, and the Gu family is known for its strict rules, and it is impossible not to abide by these rules.

The father and daughter hadn't had such a long conversation for a long time.After this conversation, the relationship between the father and daughter became much closer.

Xia Ping had no choice but to search for other clues when he searched for the drug seller in many ways to no avail.During the incident of buying murder between Gu Yin and Gu Ying, he deeply felt the conflict between Gu Li and the rest of the Gu family.Under such a contradiction, it is possible for Gu Li to be framed by the Gu family.It is also possible that Gu Li framed the Gu family.He obtained the evidence of Gu Ying's hiring of murderers and the testimony of witnesses from Jing Zhaoyin.Jing Zhaoyin saw that the Ministry of Criminal Justice had intervened, but he didn't dare to fool people with Gu Haozhi's fake file.The dossiers handed over to the Ministry of Punishment are all true.

After Xia Ping saw it, he was secretly startled.They're all from the Gu family, so what kind of conflict would cause such a life-and-death situation?Reminiscent of Gu Li moving away from the Gu family after the eldest princess took Gu Li as a foster daughter, it can be seen that the conflict has deepened.But these are not the issues he cares about, what he wants to find is the murderer who killed Wu Siran.During the cross-examinations of the Gu family's servants time and time again, the maid named Chun Tao has always been the focus.The clerk in charge of recording found that Chuntao's confession was surprisingly consistent every time.Even the answer to the same question is not bad at all.They have encountered this situation before, and [-]% of them are false confessions and memorized answers.

Chuntao was taken back to the Ministry of Punishment.After staying in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for two days, when she faced cross-examination again, she was frightened and began to speak incoherently.Xia Ping felt that there was a door, so he intensified his interrogation of Chuntao. Finally, Chuntao couldn't stand it anymore and revealed the truth.She admitted that she took Gu Li to Wu Siran's yard under Gu Haozhi's order.But she was afraid of Gu Li, and left in a hurry after bringing him here, and she didn't know what happened next.

Why did Gu Haozhi lie, which obviously has a lot of doubts.Xia Ping sighed in his heart, in this matter, he didn't want to doubt his old friend.

Gu Haozhi was brought to the Ministry of Punishment.Facing the Yamen he was familiar with, Gu Haozhi was calm.

Xia Ping has not been promoted, but the conversation between the two is still recorded by the document. "Master Gu, you and I have known each other for many years. I know what you are like. Chuntao has already confessed that you let her take Princess Sui'an to Mrs. Zun's yard. This is completely contrary to what you said. What do you have? explain?"

Gu Haozhi was silent for a while, "My lord, since Gu Li recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan, there has been no peace in my Gu family. My Gu family has strict rules, how can she be allowed to be presumptuous? But she refused to change after repeated admonitions, and my mother was so angry because of this. Lying sick in bed, my wife was mad with anger. To be honest, my subordinates have long hated Gu Li to death. Although she is my daughter, she is not at all like my Gu family. Rebellious and lawless. The poison that killed my wife It was bought by my subordinates, but it was not used to kill Jiannei, but to poison Gu Li while my mother was celebrating her birthday." Gu Haozhi sighed. "But I don't know why it's the cheap one who died in the end?"

Xia Ping has been involved in criminal cases for many years and remains unmoved by them. "Master Gu's experience is sympathetic. But you didn't explain why you lied about Chuntao."

Gu Haozhi remained silent for a while, as if he was thinking. "My lord, that day I did ask Chuntao to lure Gu Li into Jiannei's yard. I thought that Jiannei would be driven mad by Gu Li's anger. If I killed Gu Li in front of Jiannei, would she wake up. Because she had been sober for a while before. But I was stumped by some things, and when I went to the yard, Jiannei was already dead." He didn't speak quickly, and he knew that it was easier to believe.

"Lord Gu, what you mean is that you bought the poison and sent Chuntao to invite Princess Sui'an. You originally planned to poison the princess to death, but you don't know how Mrs. Zun died. Right?" Xia Ping had to start again. Squeeze it.

"Yes." Gu Haozhi admitted.

Xia Ping looked at Gu Haozhi for a while, nodded, and winked at the document, who sent the statement over.Gu Haozhi read it and signed it.Xia Ping did not imprison Gu Haozhi, as a former colleague, he still wanted to give him some face.But both he and Gu Haozhi understood that even if Wu Siran wasn't the murderer, he would still be charged with buying drugs to kill the princess.

You Shilang found something suspicious from the dossier and showed it to Xia Ping.The servants of the Gu family said that Wu Siran's door was usually locked.Gu Li and Jiang Mi's confessions said that the door was unlocked on the day of the accident.It was precisely because it was not locked that Gu Li suspected that there was something wrong inside, so he did not enter the room.

"So, it is very important who opens the lock. And Mrs. Gu has been insane for a long time, so she was locked up. The person who opened the lock must judge that she will not run out and make trouble. How can I guarantee that Mrs. Gu will not make trouble?" Xia Ping asked.

The right servant replied: "Because the person who opened the lock knew that Mrs. Gu was dead."

The two looked at each other, "Hurry up, try the servants of the Gu family again!" Xia Ping gave an order, and the people from the Ministry of Punishment rushed towards the Gu family again.

The change in the direction of cross-examination soon saw a breakthrough.A maid confessed that Gu Haozhi once asked for the key to Wu Siran's room the day before the accident, but returned it later.

Xia Ping faced his old friend again. "Master Gu, how do you explain this time?"

Gu Haozhi did not explain.He knows his flaw.But the Ministry of Criminal Investigation was so strict that he didn't dare to deal with the servants in the mansion at will.That would be self-inflicted.

Wu Siran's case came to a conclusion soon.Gu Haozhi confessed to killing his wife and blaming Gu Li.Although he has been hiding under the shadow of his family all his life, this time he has accepted all the crimes like a man.

In the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Gu Li met Gu Haozhi who was already a prisoner.

"Are you satisfied now?" Gu Haozhi straightened his disheveled hair and asked.

Gu Li shook his head. "This was never what I wanted. Everything stems from your ambition. In order to cling to Wu Ninghou's mansion, you abandoned my mother. You didn't even dare to say a word when Wu Siran poisoned her. Do you think Marry me to King Rui, right? It's a pity that my life, Gu Li, will never be controlled by you." Through the fence, she approached and said: "Wu Siran poisoned my mother, you poisoned Wu Siran, This is retribution."

Gu Haozhi was not angry.He nodded. "This is my retribution, I admit it. Li'er, you are my daughter after all. I don't ask you to forgive me, I just hope you can let your younger brothers and sisters go. They have nothing to do with what happened back then. They are innocent of."

Gu Li took a deep breath. "Father, don't worry. I never want to implicate the rest of the Gu family. As long as they don't come to trouble me, I will never touch them." There is another meaning to this, that is, if they come to trouble Gu Li, Gu Li will also Will not show mercy.

Gu Haozhi sighed. "I see."

Gu Haozhi's wife murder case was finalized.Manchu was shocked.Marquis Wu Ning urged Gu Haozhi to be sentenced as soon as possible to avenge his daughter.Concubine Wu Xian in the palace has been in poor health for a while, and she fainted when she heard that her sister was killed by Gu Haozhi.After waking up, I only shouted that my sister died unjustly.

The Ministry of Punishment quickly sentenced Gu Haozhi to be executed.The memorial was reported to the imperial court, and only to be approved by Emperor Zhengyun.Although the Gu family still has the second master supporting the facade, even the second bedroom family feels unable to hold their heads up when something like this happens.Gu Xuan's marriage was rejected by the Wang family.Gu Yin couldn't afford to be ill because of her parents.Gu Xuan had no choice but to go to the palace to take care of her sister.

Soon another incident broke out. Gu Haozhi's eldest daughter, Gu Yin, and eldest son, Gu Ying, joined hands to hire bandits some time ago to kill Gu Li, the lord of Suian County.Being killed by Gu Li, this is the Tianjiazhai bandit extermination case that has caused a lot of trouble before.

Emperor Zhengyun did not dare to be careless about this.Who is this Gu Li?That was Qin Qi's sweetheart.Hastily ordered Jingzhao Yamen to hear the matter.There is really nothing to judge about this matter, and everyone is as clear as a mirror in their hearts.But Jing Zhaoyin still had a headache.Fortunately for Gu Ying, Gu Yin is the side concubine of King Rui!How dare he handle it impartially?But on the other side is the eldest princess's mansion, and he can't afford to mess with it.In desperation, he went to check the tone of both sides one after another.King Rui's meaning was very simple, nothing happened to his side concubine or his cousin.Gu Li's meaning is also very simple, they are all from her own family, and if something happened to her father, she doesn't plan to pursue it.

Jing Zhaoyin felt that Princess Sui'an had saved his life by taking this step back.However, because the relevant files had been sent to the Ministry of Criminal Justice before, he did not dare to fabricate any more, so Gu Ying was dismissed for murdering the royal family.Gu Yin did not dare to judge, and reported to Emperor Zhengyun on the grounds that he was also a relative of the emperor, waiting for the emperor's sanction.

Emperor Zhengyun specially summoned Gu Li to ask her opinion.Gu Liming stated that he did not intend to pursue the matter.Emperor Zhengyun then issued an imperial decree that Gu Yingge would lose all his fame and fame and would never be hired.Exile in Western Xinjiang.In order to make contributions to the ancestors of the Gu family, he was allowed to return to his hometown in three years.Since Gu Yin has married into the royal family, she should abide by the palace rules.With such behavior, the title of side concubine was abolished and she was reduced to a concubine.

With the imperial decree, everyone in the court knows that the Gu family is really over.

Gu Xuan has been crying for the past few days.After she got the news, she immediately returned home from the palace. She wanted to prepare clothes and luggage for her younger brother Gu Ying and send him out of the city.

"Second sister, you have to take care of yourself. Wait for me to come back." Gu Ying had already lost the spirit of a teenager.His face is full of vicissitudes now, but his eyes are very firm. "Gu Li, as long as I have breath, I will never let you go!" He said this in his heart every day.

"You have to take good care of yourself, take care of yourself. The second sister is waiting for you to come back." Gu Xuan stuffed a lot of money for the escort, hoping that they could take care of her younger brother on the way.

Rui Wangfu.

Gu Yin fell on the bed, she had been ill for a long time.The imperial doctor said that she was suffering from stagnation of qi, and she had to take care of it slowly to get better.But what's the use?With his family ruined and his status downgraded, what hope is there for his future life?

Cheng Jie treats her pretty well.Although she is already a concubine, she still lives in the courtyard of the original side concubine.The treatment is the same as before.During Gu Yin's illness, Cheng Jie often came to take care of her.It's just that the more polite Cheng Jie treats her, the more she can feel Cheng Jie's alienation.Because Cheng Jie never regarded her as his wife, that's why he was so polite.

"Does the lord still like Gu Li now?" She lay on the bed, looked at Cheng Jie who was still as handsome as jade, and then at her haggard self, her heart was filled with ashes.

Cheng Jie pursed his lips, "Yin'er, I promised my father-in-law that I will take good care of you. No matter what happens, this king will keep you safe. As for Gu Li, this king doesn't like her because of her looks."

"Why is that?" The answer surprised Gu Yin.Gu Li's face is too amazing, how could someone like Gu Li but not because of that face?

"Because she's strong enough." This was the first time Cheng Jie expressed his plan for Gu Li in front of Gu Yin.He was ambitious, he never denied it.Therefore, the woman who can stand side by side with him must be a decisive person like Gu Li.He doesn't care even if the means are cruel.On the contrary, after this change, he admired Gu Li even more.Roses with thorns are the most beautiful flowers.

"Hehe." Gu Yin smiled wryly. "Yeah, I've never seen such a strong woman like her. She ruined our Gu family by herself. With such a good method, I can't match ten of them." Gu Yin was completely convinced.She shouldn't provoke Gu Li indiscriminately, nor should she presumptuously want to get rid of Gu Li.She thought that Gu Haozhi had the same plan.Everyone in the Gu family wanted to get rid of Gu Li, but together they were no match for Gu Li.

"Your body is important now. Don't think about anything else." Cheng Jie left after a few words of comfort.

Gu Yin was completely hopeless, only relying on her hatred for Gu Li to hold on.No matter what, she has to live.She wanted to see the day when Gu Li was punished!

After Gu Li was called to the palace by Emperor Zhengyun that day to inquire about his attitude towards the Gu family siblings, when he left the palace, he met Wei Ziyue, the young master of the Wei family, and Wei Hanying, the second lady.Gu Li didn't know Wei Ziyue, so after being introduced by Wei Hanying, he nodded and said hello and then left.

In the past few days, because of the chaos of the Gu family, she didn't have the heart to think about anything else.Emperor Zhengyun thought about the Gu family's family status, and gave Gu Haozhi a glass of poisonous wine, which finally made the family look good.The second master of the Gu family collected Gu Haozhi's body, because of such a crime, all funerals were held extremely simply.Gu Li was dressed in plain clothes and came as a daughter. The second master of the Gu family looked ugly, but he didn't dare to stop him.Gu Xuan came up to fight Gu Li, but was pulled away by others.

"I came here today to do my daughter's filial piety. After today, I don't owe the Gu family anything, and the Gu family doesn't owe me anything. I have no grievances with the Gu family, and we have nothing to do with each other." Gu Li finished worshiping in the ancestral hall. Haozhi, after saying such words, took away Yao Chuxue's spirit seat.

No one in the Gu family stopped her, they just watched her come and go.I have to say that when she said "the grievances are settled", everyone was relieved.

When Gu Li left the Gu family, Qin Qi was waiting for her in the carriage.Seeing her holding Yao Chuxue's spiritual tablet, she worriedly said, "Sister Li, don't be sad."

Gu Li smiled, "The grievances between Wu Siran and the Gu family are over. I'm not sad, on the contrary, I'm much more relaxed."

Only then did Qin Qi feel relieved.She looked at the spiritual tablet in Gu Li's arms, thought for a while and said, "Sister Li, let me hold Xueniang, okay?"

"Xue Niang?" Gu Li felt that Qin Qi's address every time was very interesting.She put Yao Chuxue's spiritual tablet into Qin Qi's arms. "Mother, this is your son-in-law."

Qin Qi lowered his head in embarrassment. "Sister Li, don't talk nonsense in front of Xueniang!"

"Oh." Gu Li said again: "Mother, this is your daughter-in-law."

Xiaomi and Jiangmi on the side wanted to laugh but didn't think it was serious enough, holding back their laughter almost caused internal injuries.

Qin Qi held Yao Chuxue's spirit seat, ignored Gu Li's indecency, and said seriously: "Xue Niang, I am Qi Qi. I will take good care of sister Li."

Gu Li watched the little rabbit introduce himself seriously, the corners of his mouth curled up.

The matter of the Gu family has come to an end on Gu Li's side.She thought of seeing Wei's family enter the palace before, and couldn't help but think of Wei Hanqi who was far away in Ling country.Ling Guo's motives for getting married this time are obviously impure, so is Wei Hanqi's going to the Ling Congress also a trap?Contacting the Wei family members who are always preoccupied recently, it can be seen that they should know something.

But Wei's family was unwilling to say, and Gu Li didn't have the habit of questioning others.She originally planned to let go of this matter, but unexpectedly saw Wei's family come to the door to ask for an interview.It was still the second miss Wei Hanying and the third miss Wei Hanjue who came.

Gu Li received the two of them in Kangyuan. "You two may wish to speak directly."

Qin Qi was playing with the purple bean on Gu Li's shoulder.At this time, he asked: "Did sister Qi have an accident in Ling country?"

Wei Hanying and Wei Hanjue glanced at each other, and Wei Hanying said: "To be honest, after the incident with Princess Feng'an, my elder sister sent someone to send a letter from home. The letter stated that she has been placed under house arrest in Ling Country She was afraid that Ling Guo would be unfavorable to Mingxi, so she tried every means to send the letter. After we received the letter, we organized a group of people to secretly go to Ling Guo to rescue the eldest sister. Unfortunately, although we found the place where the eldest sister is position, but because of my low martial arts, we can't rescue the elder sister. This time, our Weiguo government has reported to the emperor, and got the emperor's permission to go to the rescue again. However, it is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, so we will go in the name of individuals. In case of danger , the imperial court will not come forward. We... really don't have enough confidence, so we come to ask Princess Sui'an, would you help save my eldest sister?" The Wei family is a family of Wu family, and the daughter of the Wei family speaks very concisely.Wei Hanying's words have already explained the ins and outs.

Qin Qi looked at Gu Li with complicated eyes.Given her relationship with the Wei family sisters, of course she hopes that Gu Li can rescue Wei Hanqi.But according to Wei Hanying's description, there are experts in Lingguo, and she is worried about Gu Li's safety.This made her very conflicted.

"I'll go." Gu Li agreed without thinking.This surprised the other three present.

Although the Wei family sisters were happy, they reminded again: "Princess, this trip is extremely dangerous."

"That's why I'm going." Gu Li said indifferently: "You guys have a good relationship with Qiqi, and the Wei family has guarded the border for Mingxi for many years. Whether it's public or private, I can't stand idly by."

"I'm going too!" Qin Qi said suddenly.

This frightened the other three.Gu Li was the first to disagree. "No, it's too dangerous to go here, you can't go." The one who was going was Ling Guo, why did Jiang Nianwei come here?Isn't Qin Qi going like a sheep into a tiger's mouth?

"No matter! I don't want to be separated from Sister Li!" Qin Qi also thought about the danger of going here.But since she knew the danger, she was asked to stay in the capital and worry about Gu Li's safety every day, so she felt that she couldn't make it through.She is willing to go through the danger with Gu Li. "Sister Li, you said you would never be separated from me again."

Gu Li was also speechless at this sentence.That's what she said.She looked at the two sisters of the Wei family, both of whom had expressions of "I'm passing by with soy sauce".Seeing that the two sisters could not count on it, Gu Li could only say, "Anyway, I will participate. Just let me know in advance if you set a date."

The Wei family sisters left.Gu Li began to earnestly persuade Qin Qi to stay.Qin Qi, who has always been well-behaved and obedient, wants to be with Gu Li like eating a weight.This last incident alarmed the eldest princess.The eldest princess also helped to persuade Qin Qi, but Qin Qi remained unmoved.

"Mother, just let me go with Sister Li. I promise to be obedient and never make trouble." Qin Qi shook the eldest princess's arm, and then Gu Li's arm.

In the end, it was Qin Wenbo, the head of the family, who made the final decision, "Let Qiqi go. It's good to have some experience."

"Father, you are the best!" Qin Qi came over and hugged Qin Wenbo and acted like a baby.

Although under Qin Wenbo's intercession, the eldest princess and Gu Li reluctantly agreed.But Gu Li didn't dare to take it too seriously.It's fine for her to talk on her own, if she takes Qin Qi with her, it doesn't matter if she goes to another country, there are always teachers and sisters among the princesses and princesses.It happened to be Ling Guo, so there was really no one from the same sect.She wrote a note that Jiang Fengmin specially gave her a pair of pigeons raised by the head of the yard when he came last time, so that she could use it to send letters to the teacher in an emergency.She stuffed the note into a bamboo tube in the foot of a pigeon and let it fly.

Qin Qi saw, "Sister Li, are you writing a letter to Feiyejin Academy?"

"It's not because of you." Gu Li said helplessly, "I asked the teacher for help. If the academy can send a master, I will be relieved."

"A master?" Qin Qi bent his head and asked, "Are you such a master?"

"Cough..." Gu Li coughed awkwardly.There are probably only two disciples in charge of the academy, Yi Jiachenxu and Jing Hanyou, in a master academy like her.But the headmaster and the master have already gone down the mountain, and they don't know if they will go back at this time.If they didn't go back, there was no way for the two of them to walk away.

"I don't know. In short, whoever comes is fine. I feel more at ease about the people in the academy." It's not that she is worried about Wei's family.She was just worried about Wei Wei's family's martial arts.
