Chapter 166
With the death of the second wife of the Gu family, Gu Yu and Gu Ke entered the Buddhist hall to observe their filial piety, and the servants of the second wife left one after another. The Gu family entered another period, a period without the second wife of the Gu family.

From the perspective of the remaining servants of the Gu family, Gu Chongting is still the old man's favorite son. Such a big incident happened to the second room of the Gu family. The matter of the second room is just because I am afraid that the old man will be sad.

In Pine Age Courtyard, Gu Zhan was indeed haggard and depressed.He was sick in bed because of Gu Chongting, Gu Daoxiang and the others, but more because of Gu Chongting's life experience, or because of the person who killed Gu Chongting.

Gu Zhan did not report the death of Gu Chongting to the Jingzhao Mansion, but reported his death due to a sudden illness. Later, Gu Daoxiang, Gu Daofang and others did the same.Originally, it was unusual for the family to have so many funerals in a row. Officials from the Jingzhao Mansion visited the Gu family once or twice, but they never came again.

I don't know whether Gu Zhan's position as a third-rank important official played a role, or someone secretly managed it. In short, the Jingzhao Mansion no longer cares about the situation of the Gu family.Without the intervention of the Jingzhao Mansion, the Gu family didn't have to deal with anything, and could only concentrate on handling the funeral.

After everyone's funeral was over, Gu Zhan had the time and thought to speculate on the serial death of Erfang.Gu Chongting was strangled to death. This is the source of the funeral of Gu's family. Who sneaked into Gu's house in the middle of the night and killed Gu Chongting?
At this moment, in the Pine Age Academy, Gu Zhan and Gu Chong'an are discussing this issue, hoping to gain something.

"Dianzhong province, did you find anything?" Gu Zhan asked.His face was pale and his eyes were sunken.

"Nothing was found. At that time, there was a fire in Shangshi Bureau. The fire was started by a small servant. The small servant had been killed with a stick, and he didn't say anything. The child has been sent to His Highness the Ninth Prince. I got in touch with it, and what I got was accidental encounter, considering A Bi's reasons, I didn't expose it on the spot." Gu Chong'an said, frowning.

It's not a coincidence that so many things come together, but someone did it deliberately.Gu Chong'an knew that someone was behind this series of events, and Gu Chongting's death was just a sign.What Gu Chong'an is worried about is that the driving force behind this will not stop because of Gu Chongting's death.

Then, it is very important to know who killed Gu Chongting.Because, until now, Gu Chong'an didn't know whether the person behind this was targeting Gu Chongting or the Gu family.The feeling of being watched by the enemy made Gu Chong'an restless.

Even if Gu Chong'an has such thoughts, Gu Zhan thinks more. He must find out who is thinking about the Gu family, otherwise, he, the head of the Gu family, doesn't have to do it.

Hearing Gu Chong'an's words, Gu Zhan closed his eyes, and sorted out the messy things in the Gu family recently. He always felt that there was a thread running through these things, but he couldn't find this thread for a while.Obviously feel this line, but still can't grasp it.

He began to think back to the origin of everything, it seemed... since A Bi fell off the rockery, the Gu family's affairs began to increase.The ambush in Kongcui Mountain, the evil incident, Abi's kidnapping, and troubles in the palace, among them, everyone can have a relationship with Abi.

Even His Highness the Ninth Prince considered A Bi's reasons and did not reveal the matter of Gu Chongting, otherwise, the entire Gu family would be questioned.Abi, Abi...

He opened his eyes suddenly, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and then said to Gu Chong'an in a deep voice: "Let Abi come over, I have something to ask him."

When Gu Chongan heard Gu Zhan say this, he was taken aback for a moment, and asked subconsciously, "A Bi? Why did you call A Bi?"

What they are talking about is related to the killing of Gu Chongting, why did they call A Bi?What does Abi, a little girl, have to do with these things?Why did father want to see Abi?
"You call her here, I have something to ask her, it's not related to these things." Gu Zhan said this, avoiding Gu Chong'an's eyes.

Now he is not sure about anything, so he can't say anything to Gu Chong'an.He suspected that A Bi was involved in these matters, he didn't know how it was mixed, but he was sure that A Bi must know something.

Otherwise, she couldn't have gone to Shangshu Province to inform herself to return home in time, otherwise, His Highness Ninth Prince would not have come to Gu's house so coincidentally, and mentioned Gu Chongting's matter.

When Gu Chongan heard that Gu Zhan was so persistent, he nodded and asked someone to go to Chibi Courtyard to call Gu Yan.He originally wanted to stay here to listen to what Gu Zhan and Gu Yan had to say, but he heard Gu Zhan say: "You go back first, I want to talk to A Bi alone."

When Gu Chongan heard these words, although he was very worried, he still retreated. ——He has always listened to Gu Zhan's words.

Gu Yan in Chibi Courtyard was not surprised to receive this order.In fact, she thought that when Gu Chongting was imprisoned, Gu Zhan would look for her, and Gu Zhan only looked for her now, which was already later than expected.

From the moment she asked Shanqing to go to Shangshu Province to look for Gu Zhan, Gu Yan knew that Gu Zhan would be suspicious, wondering why she knew all this in such a timely manner, wondering why her shadow appeared in these things.After all, my grandfather was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, so he should have thought of many things.

When the servants came to give orders, Mother Feng happened to be in Chibi Courtyard.After Gu Chongting and Lian Shi of the second room died, Mother Feng spent more time in Chibi Courtyard. Gu Daoxing had Mrs. Fu and two wet nurses, so there was not much room for Mother Feng.

"Girl..." Feng Nuo called out worriedly.She was worried about what the old man would do to the girl, because not everyone could accept her intelligence.
"Mommy, it's going to be fine, don't worry." Gu Yan smiled and comforted Nanny Feng, her expression calm as usual.

Seeing her like this, Mother Feng let out a sigh of relief, realizing that there is no need to worry about Gu Yan, perhaps, the old man is not as good as a girl.

In this way, Gu Yan came to the Pine Age Courtyard, sat on the lower head of Gu Zhan, lowered his head quietly, and let Gu Zhan look at him.Yes, at this moment Gu Zhan is looking at her, his probing eyes seem to pass through her body, trying to see something.

From Gu Zhan's point of view, Gu Yan is extremely quiet at the moment, not as quiet as she should be at her age. To be precise, she is so quiet that she seems a little indifferent, as if she doesn't care about anything. It's all different.

Gu Zhan didn't have a daughter, but as a senior official of Jingzhao and in charge of official files, he had met many Jingzhao girls, so he knew what a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl should be like.At this age, one should embroider and paint in the back house with peace of mind, then wait to see each other, and finally get married.

In the past, when his wife was still alive, she once commented on several granddaughters in the family, saying that the few granddaughters in the family were mediocre, and it was enough to find a decent family for them, without making too many arrangements. ——For example, the arrangements for sending them to the palace.

Because of what his wife said, Gu Zhan didn't have any expectations or concerns for his granddaughters. He just wanted to let them grow up safely and marry like any Jingzhao girl.But, Abi, it seems to be different.

When he didn't notice, the eldest granddaughter seemed to be a different person.

"A Bi, do you know something?" Gu Zhan asked, without much foreshadowing, the question was very straightforward.

Hearing this, Gu Yan raised his head slightly, looked at Gu Zhan in puzzlement, and said, "A Bi doesn't know what grandfather is referring to, what would A Bi know?"

Yeah, what should she know?When the Gu family was destroyed in the previous life, she didn't know anything. If she hadn't heard Qin Ji's words by chance, she would have never known anything.Even if Gu Chongting and Lian Shi are dead now, what should she know?

In front of her grandfather, she didn't know anything.In the previous life, her grandfather failed to protect the Gu family, and in this life, her grandfather also failed to protect her parents. If it weren't for her rebirth, she still doesn't know if the Gu family can survive.

For the grandfather in front of him who loved Gu Chongting so much, Gu Yan couldn't help feeling a bit of resentment.This trace of resentment is accumulated from past and present lives. Resentment towards grandfather, as the patriarch, failed to prevent the fate of the family from being wiped out.

Gu Chongting's viciousness, grandfather didn't know, but Gu Chongting's anomaly, grandfather must be aware of one or two, even with Wei Yan's letter and Shen Du's evidence, grandfather is still reluctant to attack Gu Chongting, this kind of reluctance , almost brought catastrophe to the Gu family.

If it weren't for Shen Du, Gu Chongting's drug administration would definitely affect the Gu family.How many members of the Gu family are there?All will be destroyed because of grandfather's reluctance.

In Gu Yan's opinion, these actions of grandfather are not benevolence or kindness, but indecision, somewhat suspected of being a minion.

When she was dying in the previous life, she thought that Qin Ji and Gu Chongting stepped on the bones of the Gu family, but if you think about it carefully, why didn't the grandfather lead the clansmen to lie on the ground first, so that people had the chance to step on it?
This kind of Gu family still exists, and her parents are still alive. Gu Yan feels that it is a blessing from the heavens. She doesn't know how many convenient doors God has opened for her to have the merits she has today.

So, can she tell her grandfather what she knows?What can she know?
The puzzlement in her eyes was so clear that Gu Zhan didn't know what to say, finally he sighed helplessly, waved his hand to let Gu Yan leave, as abrupt as calling her.

Gu Yan respectfully bowed to Gu Zhan, asked his grandfather to take care, and then left the Pine Age Home.

Even without the protection of her grandfather Gu Zhan, she has come to this day, and she can do it on her own.Besides, she also had her cousins ​​Fu Ming and Shen Du, these people gave her even stronger courage and support.
