As soon as he entered, the strong smell of blood hit his nostrils, and bloody gravel fell to the ground.

The reason why she asked Gu Wuxiniang to arrange this incident was to fulfill her request and let the Lu family leave the sunken ship of the Gu family. The Gu family has strict rules, although these rules have become ineffective due to the issue of the eldest son and the second bedroom.

But she understood Gu Yanzhi. The longer he was at this stage, the less likely he would let anything fall apart in the Gu family.

Reconciliation was impossible. Gu Huanying followed the path of a scholar, and reputation was very important. But "bereavement" is possible.

Mrs. Lu was like a zombie after Gu Junyao's death. She had no way to face the death of her lifeblood, because she was the one who gave the candy to the child, and she was the one who took care of Gu Junyao hand in hand on weekdays.

Gu Huanying put all her faults on Gu Wuniang and then forgave herself.

But Lu didn't, she kept blaming herself.

It's easy to blame yourself for the pain, but it's easy to blame others. So after Gu Wuniang returned home, she first led Mrs. Lu to suspect that her eldest brother had murdered Gu Junyao. At night, Gu Junyao's "ghost appeared", reminding Mrs. Lu of her and why she was with Gu Junyao. She was unable to continue giving birth after her death simply because she bled profusely after the magpie flew in.

Others don’t believe in ghosts, or in this life and the afterlife.

However, Mrs. Lu, who has always devoted herself to worshiping Buddha, firmly believes in this. In her opinion, this is simply a revelation given to her by her son.

Even if she knew deep down that something was wrong, she would not let this opportunity go, because then she could let herself go and blame all the faults on others. This was her only outlet for so many years of pain.

The couple in the long room are still squatting in jail. Who is the only one who can vent? Of course it’s only Gu Junan!

Gu Junan is not the Gu Wuniang who is treated as a commodity in the Gu family. He is the hope of the family that Gu Yanzhi values ​​​​most...

Tonight, if this stone is thrown down, Lu will not be able to stay in this house even if she wants to.

Gu Wuniang is not the Gu Wuniang she used to be. She now has a wealthy Hedong family behind her and has her husband's family to support her. Gu Yanzhi is afraid that she will cause trouble and will not let Mrs. Lu really die no matter what...

Then the "die of illness" commonly used by nobles comes into use.

Gu Shiwei thought and raised the corners of his mouth mockingly.

Secondly, if she didn't get rid of Gu Jun'an, the cuckold king, how could she go into the study and explore the secret room that Princess Fushun mentioned?

Lu's ruthlessness, let alone Gu Wuniang's, did not occur to her that Gu Jun'an might not be able to care about coming back.

Gu Shiwei thought and looked around. She carefully jumped over the bloody stones. Sure enough, she saw two wooden plaques next to Gu Junan's desk. The one on the left had the words "Everyone in the Gu family can do it" carved on it. Memorize the house rules by heart.

Gu Shiwei looked at the words engraved on it that said no concubines were allowed to be raised, no unjust talents were allowed, no one was allowed to defraud and steal reputation... he couldn't help but shook his head.

Good guy!

What kind of house rules are these?

Take out the word "no", this is clearly the crime of the Gu family!

What are you really not allowed to do?

She thought about it and moved her gaze to the wooden sign on the right. It was the "Book of Broken Relationship" that made Gu Junan famous all over the world. It detailed several crimes of their five brothers.

Gu Shiwei looked at the forty-ninth word Princess Fushun said with mocking eyes. There was indeed the word "wait" there.

What are you waiting for?

What are Gu Yan and Gu Junan waiting for? Waiting for another day to change, the Gu family has become the top family in Bianjing City due to the merit of dragon. Waiting for that person to ascend the throne, Gu Yan is no longer the consort, can he be granted the title of marquis and prime minister?

Gu Shiwei thought and stared at the words.

If Princess Fushun was lying, she might be in danger if she pressed those words.

Gu Shiwei thought, expressionlessly raised his hand and stabbed it hard.

What Gu Shiwei is not afraid of the most is danger.

The study was extremely quiet. Gu Shiwei could only hear her own breathing. She frowned... Didn't the mechanism open? Didn't the entrance to the secret room appear?

She was hesitating whether to poke again when she heard a slight click.

The house rules sign hanging on the wall suddenly shrank to the side, leaving a small hole that could accommodate a thin man to crawl in sideways. This hole is in the wall and is not connected to the ground. You need to stand on the table and then drill in.

Gu Shinwei squinted his eyes and moved closer, and sure enough he saw a hair quietly hidden on the shiny black table.

She secretly scolded Gu Junan for being cunning. The shoe would definitely leave footprints as soon as it was put on the table. Even if he didn't touch his hair when he went in, he would touch the hair when he wiped off the footprints, so that he could quickly find someone. Went in.

But this didn't bother her.

Gu Shiwei thought, held his breath, jumped with his feet and flew directly into the secret room.

As soon as you enter, there is a staircase going down. There are several small lighted torches staggered on the walls on both sides of the staircase.

Gu Shiwei clenched his sword tightly and walked down the stairs. Gu Shiwei was stunned when he looked at it. What was below was not the gold and silver sea she imagined, nor was it some flying bird mask or a weapon of rebellion, but a book in a secret room.

How should I put it, now it looks more like a study than Gu Junan's study.

There were densely packed books on the bookshelves. Even though Gu Shiwei was not good at reading, he could tell that these books were very precious and looked like orphans. On a bookshelf that still has some space, there are stacks of papers filled with words.

Gu Shiwei went over and took a look. They were newspapers published by the imperial court, and some were tabloid newspapers bought from the private sector. The dates all looked new.

So Gu Junan created a secret room to better study and write articles, so as to get involved in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty?

Gu Shiwei firmly didn’t believe it!

She looked at the books in the room and felt like crying. Yaoshou, it would be great if there were a room full of weapons, or a room full of corpses. She would look so fast. allow!

But this room is full of obscure books!

How could she start investigating this? If I had known earlier, I should have brought Han Shiyan!

Gu Shiwei thought, looked around, and his eyes fell on a torch in the corner.

Previously, the flames on both sides of the stairs and directly opposite the stairs were falling to one side. She did not take it to heart, because not to mention that she did not close the door of the secret room, even if she closed the door, it would be easy for the wind to escape from it. Blowing in through the gaps.

The flames will fall if the wind blows them, but this corner is different.

This place is not facing the stairs and is in a corner sheltered from the wind. Why does the flame fall? Not only does it fall, but it also falls in a different direction from the other flames. This shows what? It shows that there are other exits from this secret room.

Gu Shiwei thought about it and walked towards the corner. She looked at the wall opposite to the direction in which the flames fell.

There is a mural painted on the wall, which shows Gu Junan wearing a red robe, riding a horse and parading through the streets proudly.

She recognized that this touch must have been painted by Gu Junan himself.

She squinted her eyes and looked again and again, and suddenly her eyes fell on the large seal held in Gu Junan's hand.

The Imperial City Department Supervises hundreds of officials, and Gu Shiwei is very familiar with this kind of official seal. The size of Dayong's seal has its own regulations: "The Hou Bao is made of gold, two inches square and four inches; the Prince's treasure is two inches square and five inches thick; the princes' seals are made of gold. With the seal under Zhongshu’s door, it’s two inches to one minute…”

In the painting, Gu Junan is holding a two-inch one-point seal that can only be used by the chief official of the Shuwang Tongzhong sect.

Good guy! Leave it here to daydream!

She thought, and tried to poke at the seal, and sure enough, she heard the same slight clicking sound... The painting on the wall suddenly moved. Gu Junan rode his horse and moved with the door, as if it was alive. It's like coming over...

Gu Shinwei looked at it and twitched the corner of his mouth.

no! You followed the door and got into the cracks in the wall. Is this really a lucky thing?

Maybe you also know that this dream is too ridiculous, so you are so ashamed that you crawled into the cracks of the ground.

"You came!"

A deep voice came from the secret room. (End of chapter)
