Dali Temple Conspiracy Records

Chapter 135 Slaves
"Since Li Sizhi has already figured out the cause and effect very clearly, I admit that there is no need to bother your lord to continue the investigation." Gu Mingyuan didn't make any more sophistry, and said bluntly, "I'm just curious, how did Sizhi discover the mystery in the medicine box? That box I have treated the ointment of Qingliangyou again, and the smell of Qingxuan ointment is almost the same."

Li Quan said: "I'm not that good, you lost to her."

Hearing this, Gu Mingyuan turned his eyes to Bai Sanxiu, a little surprised: "Miss Bai found out?"

"She smelled it."

After being stunned for a moment, Gu Mingyuan sighed softly: "It seems to be God's will."

If Gu Xinrong's obsession hadn't dissipated after his death, which caused the talisman to be troublesome, the Gu family would not have invited Li Quan, who was in charge of the unspecified department, to investigate.This carefully planned plan will end with Gu Chengyan's accidental death.At that time, Gu Chengyan's "ruthlessness", Gu Chengzhu's thieves, and his "innocent victimization" will all become others' sympathy and admiration for him.Only in this way can he really control people's hearts. He is in charge of Jishitang and becomes the head of the Gu family, which is what everyone expects.

How could Bai Sanxiu not know what Gu Mingyuan was thinking?
This person has always looked calm and steady, and his temper is quite similar to Li Quan's, but he doesn't want him to strike neatly, and he is extremely ruthless to fight back without blood.For this purpose, he began slowly poisoning two years ago, and at the same time gradually became addicted to alcohol, so that today's poisoning with alcohol is more reasonable.He even poisoned himself with aconitum in order to clear his suspicions.

The most frightening thing is that all his plans are laid in advance, and after a long time, they will be triggered inadvertently on a certain day, just like an accident.Even if other people have doubts in their hearts and want to investigate, it is difficult to grasp the evidence.

But she firmly believes that as long as it is done, it will leave traces.

She couldn't help but said: "It has nothing to do with God. Even if the old man has no obsession, even if I don't come, these cases will still be sent to Si Zhi's desk for review, and he will still be able to find out. Your plan is indeed very meticulous, and the rings are close. Button, draw it slowly, but Si Zhi always felt suspicious, and he was not completely deceived by you. He has known your Gu family for many years, and he doesn't think that the eldest son has the talent for such a design, as long as he continues to investigate, sooner or later he will discover the secret of the ointment."

Gu Mingyuan couldn't help but laugh.

"So, I was clever but was mistaken by cleverness."

"Why?" Bai Sanxiu asked puzzledly, "You are quite accomplished in medical skills, you manage the Jishi Hall in an orderly manner, and the old man also cares about you very much. Why did you commit all these things?"

"Want me?" Gu Mingyuan sneered, "That's right, but he doesn't regard me as an heir, but rather as a servant who will always work hard for the Gu family! When I was young, I also thought that the old man really liked me and valued me." I, I learned later, he used me as a tool to spur his two sons. There was a time when he wanted to drive me to Pangzhi because I was too popular and overwhelmed his two sons. It’s a pity Ah, the two brothers really couldn't afford to support them. So after that, he wanted me to help them for the rest of their lives. Hmph, he said he was an adopted son, but he was actually a housekeeper who listened to Xuan. "

"But the elders of the Gu family agree with you to be in charge of the house."

"Oh, that's because the two brothers are really unconvincing. The old man can only give me the head of the family to save face. But in fact, I have to worry about everything, and the benefits go to the two brothers! Even in order to let me This adopted son justifiably inherits the family business, and wants me to marry Lan Mei... Although I have no blood relationship with her, but we have been together as brothers and sisters since childhood, how is marriage different from incest?"

Speaking of this, Gu Mingyuan's eyes became more and more cold, and his indifferent voice finally couldn't suppress the resentment in his heart.

"In the end, I'm just a slave of the Gu family!"

Li Quan, who had been silent all this time, only spoke at this moment: "Mr. Gu is kind to you."

"I'd rather not be the Patriarch." Gu Mingyuan's face was still pale, and he stood up, "Let's go. Are you going to Wannian County?"

Seeing his faltering gait, Li Quan paused, and said, "Get ready for the sedan chair."
