So I play chess

Chapter 14
Wen Gu looked at the person who made the sound with great interest, but he saw that it was Liu Shi who had been huddled beside the table.

She slowly took a step in Liu's direction: "I shouldn't have come to Tongcheng, so where should I go?"

The Liu family began to plan secretly since the Yang family was besieged. Although she was a concubine of the Yang family, she never participated in this matter because of Gu's fear.I thought that I would be implicated by these two people, but I didn't expect that Gu Shi was afraid that she would tell the truth behind her back, so he insisted on dragging her to the hall together, which actually created a glimmer of life for her.

Yang Wantang and Mrs. Gu felt guilty, and they were afraid of being retaliated. As soon as Wen Gu opened his mouth, they first tried to avoid the matter of poisoning Wen Xin by themselves.

And Liu Shi didn't need to worry about this much, so she thought more clearly.

Wen Gu acted like this, probably because he knew what the master was up to.

On weekdays, Mrs. Gu is used to bullying her. If the master wants to control, he can comfort him, and if he doesn't want to control, he just turns a deaf ear.Today, he was taken out to block the knife.She is a eccentric, and her natal family is hundreds of miles away, not as powerful as the Yang family. Before, she had to rely on the Yang family to live, but now in this situation, she can't be tied to others to die, she should make a living for herself.

After thinking this through, Liu's last trace of hesitation disappeared, and he mustered up the courage to speak out.Seeing Wen Gu looking at himself, he added another sentence: "Miss Wen, your younger brother followed our eldest son to the north, and should be in Beiyu by this time."

Even so, Liu Shi did not dare to mention Wen Xinsheng's death, for fear of offending Wen Gu.

Ever since Liu Shi came in, Wen Gu's eyes had not been on her.Wen Gu knew that although Liu knew about Yang Wantang's and Gu's activities, she was at most just a spectator, and she couldn't influence anything with a side room.

But these words gave her another idea.

"I thought that the entire Yang family was here, but I forgot that there is also an eldest son."

After Wen Gu finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Tong, Zhou Tong understood, turned around and walked out the door, with a wave of his hand, a group of soldiers followed him away.

Mrs. Gu cried out in horror, they are going to kill her son!

This was the real touch of her life, she stood up abruptly, and rushed towards Liu Shi: "You lowly maidservant, I tore your mouth apart."

Liu Shi just protected her head and face, curled up and let her beat her.

"Okay!" Yang Wantang, who hadn't uttered a word for a long time, was finally able to speak.He stretched out his hand to pull Gu Shi back, but Mrs. Gu held back all her strength and tore her together with Liu Shi, and she pulled her away after a few times.

Yang Wantang took a deep breath, and stopped pretending: "Wen Gu, what do you want to do?"

Wen Gu said indifferently: "I just want to ask, which jug was the wine my younger brother drank that day? And which jug is the wine you prepared for me today?"

Wen Gu's words can be regarded as pointing out that she already knew about Yang Wantang's plan.Judging by the posture of Liangzhou soldiers and Zhou Tong in Manfu just now, she really dared to kill people.

Mrs. Liu thought that the matter had come to this point, so she simply did not do anything, did not give Yang Wantang and Mrs. Gu time to reply, and stood up first, with a decisive expression: "It is in Mrs. Gu's room, I will get it for you!"

Wen Gu nodded and said to himself, "I know how to make a living for myself."

Wen Gu asked Zhixia to go with her, and as soon as she left, Wen Liang came in, followed by a group of soldiers, escorting several servants of the Yang family.

The bound domestic servants were pressed by Liangzhou soldiers on their shoulders, and they knelt down in unison.

Wen Liang bowed to Wen Gu and said: "Miss, the housekeeper of Yang's house has finished the trial. There were 32 people who besieged the young master's servants in Yang's house that day, 15 of them were killed on the spot, Zhou Tong killed nine people, and the remaining eight are here. The lady lost her hair."

These people are said to be servants of the Yang family, rather than Yang Wantang's private soldiers.Master Yang spent a lot of money to support these people.After Wen Xin was poisoned that day, all the servants who participated received silver rewards.For these rewards, this group of people doesn't distinguish between right and wrong. Master Yang's words today are the wine and meat in their mouths and the flower girls in their arms tomorrow, and nothing else is important.

Wen Gu didn't even look at them: "Where's the housekeeper?"

Wen Liang replied, "He was beaten to death."

Wen Gu said, "Then let's kill those too."

Wen Liang originally wanted to bring them up, just to add another fire to the scene.He never thought that the eldest lady would ask him to kill these people on the spot.

Although Liangzhou has often used swords these years, the eldest lady has never seen blood before.

Even if the young masters and ladies of the aristocratic family can hear these things, most of them can't see them.

However, the words and deeds of the eldest lady in the past two days are not comparable to ordinary people, Wen Liang is not surprised, since the order is given, he just acts according to the order.

Wen Liang raised his hand, and saw the soldiers raised their knives and stabbed through the hearts of the servants of the Yang family one by one.Without even humming, they all fell to the ground.

"They have the blood of my Liangzhou army on their hands." Wen Gu paused, looked at Yang Wantang, and continued word by word, "You can't live without living."

At this time Liu Shi came back, holding a porcelain pot tightly in her hand, standing at the door and seeing the scene in the hall, she knew that Wen Gu would kill people, but seeing it with her own eyes, she couldn't help but feel nauseous.

She paused, steadied her spirits, walked in with a sigh of relief, and stood still in front of Wen Gu.

Liu Shi originally thought about passing the porcelain pot to Wen Gu, but then she thought about it, she had already reached this point, so she just decided to do it.

Just a second thought, she went back to the table and put the porcelain pot in front of Yang Wantang and Mrs. Gu.

Mrs. Gu stared at her, but she ignored her.Wen Gu motioned for her to sit back, and then went straight back to her seat, leaning on her body, far away from Yang Wantang.

Wen Gu stared at the porcelain pot, feeling dazed, thinking about how her younger brother came into the Yang Mansion with great expectations that day, how he was coaxed to sit at this table, and how he was tricked into drinking the poisoned wine.The younger brother has never drank alcohol. He will never know how much he drinks and what he looks like when he is drunk.

And she was able to stand here today, how much suffering she has experienced, and how many farewells she has experienced, which is beyond the imagination of those present.

She insisted on letting herself emerge from the darkness of despair over and over again, perhaps because she is no longer the one to be slaughtered today.

Here and now, life and death are in her hands alone.

Wen Gu's heart was racing, but his face was as usual, and he asked after a while: "Is this still the pot?"

Liu didn't know what Wen Gu was thinking. Although she asked a strange question, she already knew where her life was going, and said with reverence in her tone, "Miss, it's just this pot."

Wen Gu sighed: "Is this considered Uncle Shi's friendship? Give me and my younger brother to drink the same pot of wine."

Yang Wantang's eyes lost his focus, he couldn't figure out how the news leaked out, Wen Gu knew that Wen Xin died of poisoned alcohol, and also knew that he used the same scheme on her.Wen Gu called each other intimately, but his tone was filled with cold killing intent.
