After I bloom, a hundred flowers will kill

Chapter 68 The One Who Knows Her Best

Shen Xihe was stunned.

The matter of Xie Guogong's mansion caused a lot of uproar, and Xie Yunhuai's death of righteousness also caused a sensation in the capital. She knew that Xie Yunhuai pointed at Xie Guogong for murdering his wife at Xie Guogong's continuation banquet, but she did not know that it was such a murder.

Xie Guogong, a person of great kindness who is praised by everyone in Kyoto, a person who engraved loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness into the minds of everyone in Kyoto.

Back then, Xie Yunhuai never accused him of murdering his wife, but no one believed it. Everyone said that Xie Yunhuai couldn't stand the blow of losing his mother.

At the same time, it is against filial piety for him to cut off his righteousness. It is said that at the wedding banquet, Xie Guogong was distraught, and even blamed himself for not fulfilling his father's responsibilities, not worrying about Xie Yunhuai's feelings of losing his mother as a teenager, and even regretting his marriage on the spot.

"Why is this so..." Shen Xihe felt a little distressed about the man in front of him with the breeze and the moon.

"When he was young, his heart belonged, but the woman had a marriage contract with someone. He had no choice but to marry my mother." Xie Yunhuai didn't know why, but faced Shen Xihe and had the urge to pour it out.

These heavy pains were buried in his heart, and at this moment, he seemed to have found a gap that he could spit out.

"Everyone knows that he loves to re-send his wife, not to mention that the concubine doesn't even have a concubine. My aunt once thought so."

Xie Yunhuai laughed lightly: "His successor is his teenage admiration, I don't know when he heard that she had been a widow for many years, and he didn't know when they got married. He didn't want her to be his concubine and wanted to marry her If she stays together, I can only let my mother take her place."

Even so, it is impossible for Xie Guogong, who is praised by everyone, to carry the name of killing his wife on his back.So it took him three years to achieve his goal. For three years since his grandmother became ill, he took great pains to make his wife drink medicines that are not symptomatic every day, watch her wither a little bit, and pretend to have sex every day. Deep shivering.

In this dynasty, there was a rule: take a concubine and a female guest as his wife for a year and a half.

A concubine is not allowed to be straightened. Once she is a concubine, the wife is dead, and she can only continue the string, and the concubine cannot be straightened.

After hearing this, Shen Xihe thought of Xiao Changyu and Bian Xianyi, and Xiao Changyu was also reluctant to take Bian Xianyi as his concubine, so he wanted to marry her, let her die of illness, and then he could marry Bian Xianyi.

"Doctor Qi..." Shen Xihe was a little apologetic, but he didn't know the inside story, which caused Xie Yunhuai's sadness.

However, Xie Yunhuai chuckled and shook his head to indicate that he was fine: "He has always been kind to people, and he plays well, so even if I turned those Langzhong to the yamen, the Langzhong didn't dare to bite, so he had to admit that he is not skilled in medicine, and it is not against the law to be incompetent in medicine. There is no swindling or deception, nor poisoning, and even if he is forced by the power of the Duke’s government, he will only eat a board.”

It was because of this that he couldn't stay in Duke Xie's mansion for a moment. He was afraid that one day he would be red-eyed and kill his father with a knife.

Xie Ji is not worthy of his life!
"I am a person who has broken the righteousness with my father. People say that I am unfilial and unrighteous. If Lady Gu marries me, she will be criticized all her life."

Xie Yunhuai's actions in those days were indeed criticized by others, and if he did this first, he would have ended his career in this life.

Xie Yunhuai's hand was clearly articulated but covered with different shades of scars and slowly sorted out the medicine he took out: "And at that time I left the Guogong's mansion and turned around to marry Lady Gu. If Gu Xiang tried to persuade me to go back to the mansion, it would hurt me. If Gu Xiang does not persuade me, I am afraid that I will definitely be accused of instigating Gu Xiang’s righteousness.

Xie Yunhuai's words came from the bottom of his heart, and what he said was not wrong.

He and Gu Qingzhi, no one has let down the other, the blame can only be blamed for the lack of fate.

"Why don't you want to quit the relationship with her face to face?" Even if you don't want to explain the inside story, it's better to say quit the relationship in person.

"County Lord, I was notorious back then. When I broke off the marriage, others would only say that I had self-knowledge or that I dared not offend the daughter of the Xiangfu. As far as Lady Gu is concerned, there is no reputational damage. That's it."

Shen Xihe looked at Xie Yunhuai quietly, so he thought so.

That's right, marriage is a covenant between parents, and it is magnanimous for him to seek Prime Minister Gu to break off the marriage. If he wants to see Gu Qingzhi, there must be rumors that Gu Qingzhi and him have long been in love with each other in Beijing, or even worse.

At that time, Gu’s family was cooking oil on fire, and I don’t know how many pairs of eyes stared at it, but if he caught a little, he would make a big fuss.

He just didn't want to smear her reputation.

"If she is willing to return to the countryside with you..."

"No." Before Shen Xihe could finish speaking, Xie Yunhuai cut her off decisively, "The county lord, she is Lady Gu, a model of a boudoir in Kyoto, and the head of a noble family."

A girl who has upbringing, responsibility, and gratitude carved into her bones will not abandon the mission that should be shouldered by the daughter of the Gu family for the sake of her children's private affairs.

Xie Yunhuai stood up and put on the medicine box: "If she wants to, she has thousands of ways not to marry into the royal family, but she chose not to turn back, because she is Gu girl."

When the words fell, Xie Yunhuai bowed to Shen Xihe and retired.

He walked to the door but paused. He didn't move, he turned his head slowly, and half of his face turned to Shen Xihe: "The county master, the same is true."

Shen Xi and Mu Ran watched Xie Yunhuai walk away step by step, and finally disappeared.

She looked out of the window absentmindedly, and I didn't know when the drizzle slanted down meticulously, she couldn't help walking to the window, looking at the misty rain, she couldn't help but smile in a low voice: "I never thought, the one who knows me best is actually you. "

Gu Qingzhi had thousands of ways not to marry into the royal family, as did Shen Xihe.

However, they all chose to gamble, because the responsibility made them obliged.

Although the Gu family was a complete defeat in the end, Gu Qingzhi had no regrets and no shame in her heart, she did her best.

Xie Yunhuai told her so much because she wanted to tell her that she still had a choice. Xie Yunhuai didn't want her to fall into the whirlpool of imperial power, just because one step in, life or death would be the ultimate winner. Exhausted and devastated.

So what?
She can definitely choose to be the delicate daughter of her father and brother for the rest of her life, pretending to be innocent and ignorant, and enjoying the peace and comfort that they have tried their best to create, but once Shen Yueshan and the others are defeated, how can she be better? ?

She was afraid that she would be ashamed to be buried with them even if she died.

They are a family, they support each other and contribute together, they are a family.

Power is an invisible hand that controls everyone and pushes everyone into the game.

The Shen family has nowhere to go. As a member of the Shen family, she has no shirk!
"The misty rain falls, and the autumn wind rises. Some people enjoy the rain, some hope for the rain, and some..." Shen Xi and Su Bai stretched out their hands from the window, feeling the coolness of the autumn rain, "Wait until the rain stops."

　Xie Yunhuai and Gu Qingzhi are really destined to have no part in it. There is only a marriage contract between the two, and there is no love.

　　Gu Qingzhi will not forget his responsibilities for him.

　　Xie Yunhuai would not ignore the hatred in him for her sake.
