Warm spring enters Hou's door

Chapter 147 The real cause of death

Needless to say, this New Year's Eve dinner, everyone had no taste.

Although they had a few reunion dinners without Du Yi's side before, they knew that Du Yi was safe and well by Fu Fengzi's side at that time, so they were naturally not worried.But now, the inexplicable Du Yi disappeared, and they didn't know what happened. Their hearts were all hanging high, and they had no appetite when facing a table of delicious food.

After barely eating a few mouthfuls, they all put down their chopsticks and stopped eating.

Then came two extremely difficult days.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, at the hour of the hour, a seemingly ordinary carriage drove up to the gate of the Marquis of Changning.

The one who drove the car was still Xiao Langjun who came to give New Year gifts last time.He was also in the same Tsing Yi hat, smiling all over his face.

"Uncle, Uncle, Madam, please get in the car, both of you."

Du Junqing immediately took Gu Caiwei's hand and went up together.

"Sister, brother-in-law, I'll go too!" Gu Tianyuan hurried over.

Gu Caiwei looked back at him, and Gu Tianyuan hurriedly said: "I have been with Ayi for so many years, and he knows a lot about him. And I am not incompetent, so take me with you, maybe I will How can I help you!"

"Then you come!" Du Juanqing nodded.

"Hey, good!" Gu Tianyuan quickly agreed, and quickly climbed into the carriage.

The three of them sat down on the carriage, and the young gentleman put down the curtain and sat calmly on the shaft.He picked up the whip in one hand, flicked it lightly, and the steed horse pulling the cart immediately stepped forward and walked out slowly.

Walking all the way, Gu Caiwei looked out through the car window.She saw that the carriage went straight out of the city gate, galloped on the pipe outside for about a cup of tea, and then there was a fork in the road ahead, he made a sharp turn, walked along the path for a while, and then turned again Go up a small path, walk again, turn again... After turning five or six times in a row, the carriage finally stopped.

Mr. Xiao Lang got out of the car, said a few words to the guard at the door, the guard opened the door, the carriage drove in, and continued for a while before the carriage really stopped.

"arrive!"

Mr. Xiao Lang took the initiative to help him open the curtain of the car, and Du Juan looked out, and saw that there were many palaces in front of him, magnificent and magnificent, like another imperial palace.

"There is such a place outside of Shendu? Why haven't I heard of it before?" He looked at Gu Caiwei.

Gu Caiwei smiled lightly: "This place is hidden by experts through gossip formations. Unless one of us leads the way, outsiders will not be able to find it at all. And this is just a palace next to the capital of God. The real black market palace is next to Chang'an. This is a place temporarily built by Her Majesty the Queen after she moved the capital to Shendu."

"Have you been here?" Du Juanqing asked in surprise.

"No." Gu Caiwei shook her head, "but I know this place. I have been to the palace in Chang'an, and I have lived in it for a long time! The palace here is not much different from that in Chang'an, except that the regulations are slightly lowered. Wait a minute."

While talking, the two had already got out of the car, and Mr. Xiao Lang continued to lead them the way.Passing through many palace gates, Du Juanqing saw that there were people holding hands everywhere, and everyone had a mask of fangs on their faces, making it difficult to see their true faces.

I don't know if it's the function of the mask or what, all the way in, Du Juanqing only felt that his mood also sank.

After finally reaching the innermost part, Mr. Xiao Lang led them to stand at the gate of a magnificent palace.

"Please wait a moment, I will report to the young master right now."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a woman sobbing from inside——

"I'm all for your own good, why are you angry? Are you really planning to end your life?"

"That's my fate too!" The deep and cold voice sounded immediately, exactly as Du Juanqing remembered.

Du Junqing looked at Gu Caiwei again. "Are they arguing as husband and wife?"

"Don't ask me about this, I don't know. It has been many years since I dealt with the young lady, and it must have been ten or eight years." Gu Caiwei waved her hand quickly, "This young lady is The young master's cousin is also the daughter of the young master's mother's natal sister, and her father is the right-hand man of the previous black market owner, and has a very high status in this underground black market. When they combine, they are a good match, a man of talent and a woman."

The corner of Du Juanqing's mouth twitched slightly. "If you are a man of talent and a woman's appearance, will the old Chinese New Year quarrel like this?"

They heard it from outside!It is conceivable how much trouble these two people had.

Gu Caiwei spread her hands. "I only said that they are well-matched, talented and beautiful, but I didn't say that they will be able to marry their husbands and wives. There are a lot of grievances these days. Isn't that what you and my sister were like back then?"

After the black history was dug out, Du Juanqing silently turned his head away.

Fortunately, at this time, the little man who went in to spread the message has already returned.

"Uncle, uncle, madam, the two of you please."

Du Junqing immediately put away the redundant expression on his face, and walked in with Gu Caiwei.

After crossing the high threshold, they walked into an empty hall, and they saw only three people here—the young master in black and still wearing a mask, a beautiful young woman in her twenties, And... Du Yi who was obediently standing aside.

"Father! Mother!"

Upon seeing them, Du Yi immediately let out a low cry of excitement.

Du Juanqing also hurriedly wanted to go forward.

But immediately, a figure flashed in front of him, and someone stopped Du Juanqing. "Uncle, please don't act rashly."

Du Juan paused, and he turned back to stare at the young master: "Didn't you keep saying that you would not recognize this child? Then what are you doing now? The majestic young master of the black market, the king of the underground, is it that you are so contradictory? ?”

"I didn't go back on my word." The young master said in a deep voice, "I didn't do this either."

Du Juan frowned slightly, and heard the young woman say, "I did this."

Du Juanqing looked at her immediately, and heard her continue: "My husband and I have been married for four years, and so far we have not given birth to a man and a woman for him. During this period, I also thought about giving him a concubine, but he refused. Husband He has deep affection for me, and I can't let him die because of my relationship. Just two years ago, I learned by chance that he ordered his people to spend two full years making a marrow washing pill, and the result But it was not given to the person who made great achievements under him, but to someone else, and I knew that person was very important to him. I asked someone to inquire, and then I knew the existence of this child."

While speaking, her eyes had already landed on Du Yi.Her gentle gaze moved back and forth on Du Yi's already somewhat angular face, and she said softly: "I just saw his portrait, and I knew he must be the son of my husband. So, I must put He brought it back."

But her soft and soft words fell into her ears, but Du Yi couldn't help trembling all over.

"Daddy, Mommy, save me!" he shouted hastily.

Du Junqing frowned, and Gu Caiwei's heart tightened, an indescribable sense of disobedience welled up in her heart.

At this time, the young master said coldly again: "I said earlier, I don't recognize him, you should let him go! His surname is Du now, and he is the eldest son of the Marquis of Changning. Although I am the young master of the black market, I have always To live in harmony with the imperial court, the well water does not interfere with the river water. You are now against the imperial court by forcibly snatching people from the imperial court. If this causes the imperial court’s dissatisfaction, I can’t explain it.”

"What is there to explain? What is there to explain? He is not the son of the Marquis of Changning, we all know that. Now that the Marquis of Changning also has his own son, why is he still detaining our child?" The young lady said immediately.

Even though the young master had dark cheeks and a black robe, Gu Caiwei could clearly feel the chill emanating from him.

"Our child? Who taught you to say that?" He asked coldly.

The Young Mistress was startled for a moment, but immediately regained her composure. "He is your child, so of course it is mine. Husband, don't worry, I said earlier that I will love what you love and think what you think. Since you like this child so much, I must take him back and let him You father and son are reunited, and he will be by your side in the future."

The young master's eyes turned cold. "I do not like him."

"No, you like it!" The young master's wife hurriedly said, "If you don't like it, why did you search for famous doctors in the world and let them study marrow washing pills ten years ago? Half a year ago, the first washing marrow pill The marrow pill has been made, but you still think it’s not enough. You keep asking people to improve it. You must maximize its efficacy and minimize the damage to the human body. Because of this, how much manpower and material resources you have invested, Do you know how many people have objections to this? Yes, you know, but you still insist on going your own way and insist on making this thing.”

"Three years ago, the marrow washing pill with the strongest efficacy and the fewest impurities was finally successfully refined. You immediately took it and left without any news for a month. When you come back, you have already changed !"

"You think too much." The young master said coldly.

"NO, I have not."

Shaking her head, the young master's wife walked up to the young master, staring at him with affectionate eyes. "Cousin, do you know how much I like you? Since I was ten years old, I vowed to marry you. I know your every move, every word and action by heart. Even if it's just your eyebrow raising , I can clearly distinguish your emotions. Before the Xisui Pill was successfully refined, you were frowning and depressed almost every day. But after the Xisui Pill was successfully prepared and sent out, you felt relieved! Even several times, I saw you smile!"

"You want to smile so happily. Since I was a child, I have seen you laugh many times, but I have never seen you so happy. At that time, I knew that the person you gave the marrow washing pill must be someone you care about very much." .In that case, I must help you get him! I want to keep you happy and laughing all the time!"

"Nonsense!" The young master flicked his sleeves angrily, and turned his back directly, "Ma'am, you really think too much."

Even though it was just a back view, the young master's wife still looked tenderly, and water was almost washed out of her eyes. "Husband, why do you refuse to accept my kindness? I am clearly doing it for your own good!"

The corners of Gu Caiwei's mouth twitched.

She moved closer to Du Juanqing and whispered to him. "Have you noticed that this young lady's mind is a little abnormal?"

"I found out, it seems very self-righteous." Du Juan nodded.

"Not only self-righteous, but also paranoid. She doesn't pay attention to other people's ideas at all, and only cares about 'what she thinks' in everything." Gu Caiwei said, "She is sick."

"Can you cure it?" Du Juanqing asked casually.

Gu Caiwei shook her head. "No."

Du Juan raised his eyebrows in surprise—there are still diseases in this world that she cannot cure?

Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "Her obsession is too deep. To put it bluntly, it is the combination of an overly paranoid temperament and a deep love for the young master, resulting in a serious heart disease. If you want to cure this disease, you can only let her give up loving the young master. But look at the way she looks at the young master, is it possible? She has already loved her so much that she is about to lose herself! She is also the wife of the young master, and her background is not low, so I dare not tell her what to do. Right now, I can only wait When she dies one day, her problem will be completely cured."

That's cold and heartless.

When such words came out of a doctor's mouth, Du Juanqing couldn't believe his ears.

When they whispered their ears, the young master had already quarreled with the young master's wife.

"Are you doing it for my own good, or for your own good? You brought this child back without notifying me in advance, and forced him to call me father, and kept saying that the family reunion... What reunion? Like this I don’t want the reunion! You send him away quickly! And Marquis Changning and others are also sent out, I don’t want to see them again in the future!” The young master scolded coldly.

After all, the young master's wife still loves the young master too much.

Being scolded by her face to face, her figure flickered, and her eyes immediately turned red.

"Husband, why do you just refuse to admit your thoughts? If you like this child, I will definitely like him too. You just believe it once and give me another chance?"

"Give you a chance? Will you kill him too?" The young master snorted coldly.

As soon as these words came out, both Gu Caiwei and Du Juanqing felt their hearts skip a beat!
It seemed... something had surfaced.

The Young Mistress's eyes flashed immediately, her eyes were covered with mist, and she was about to cry.

"Cousin, I don't, I really don't..."

Du Yi, who had been standing aside all the time, said softly at this time: "Why did you say that? Could it be that my mother died at the hands of this woman?"

The young master didn't speak, but the young master's wife turned around and scolded: "Our adults are talking, why do you, a junior, get in the way? Do you have the right to speak about the adults' affairs?"

Seeing this, the young master quickly glanced at Du Yi, but he still didn't speak.

The corner of Du Yi's mouth twitched, and he nodded. "I understand. My dear mother did die at your hands. Just why? My mother never pestered him, and later she married my father, and even my surname is Du. Over the years, I have never I never thought of coming to you. When I came here years ago, it was just to formally break off relations with you. Then why did you forcefully tie me here? Since you already hate me enough to attack my mother, I will Believe it or not, you never thought of attacking me."

Hearing these words, the Young Master's wife's eyes froze for a moment, she stared at Du Yi firmly, and a cold smile slowly appeared on the corner of her lips.

"You son of a bitch has exactly the same temperament as that slut. It seems that the years are peaceful and peaceful, but you have never stopped the way of seducing people in private! Cousin, he was deceived by your mother's gentle appearance That's why I'm so obsessed with her. If I don't kill her, my cousin still doesn't know how she will be seduced by her! I'm all for my cousin's good!"

"Excuses." Du Yi hummed.

The young lady's eyes became colder for a moment.

Gu Caiwei suddenly said softly at this time: "What about you? In order to please the young master, you turned yourself into the person you hate the most. Is this also for his own good?"

The young lady's back stiffened suddenly.

She turned her head slowly, her eyes fixed on Gu Caiwei. "What did you say? Say it again!"

"I said, you are imitating Ayi's mother." Gu Caiwei said, "I said, why did I feel weird when I first saw you! When we first met, she was an arrogant and willful little lady , See who doesn't like it and just whips it over, how energetic, but now goodbye, you have become like this... I almost didn't recognize you at first! What do you think you are? You are not good enough, You have to imitate others, and you imitate them completely."

"You say I don't imitate well?" The young lady's eyes widened even wider.

Gu Caiwei nodded. "Yeah, it's not like that at all. Although I haven't seen Ayi's own mother, she grew up in Fangliang Gong's mansion anyway. No matter how poor her family is, her upbringing will not be bad. She You are the real lady of the family, with beautiful appearance, gentle and pleasant appearance, and you are the best candidate to be the mistress of the house. You and her temperament are completely different, but in the end you specially imitated it to cater to the young master's preferences. What you imitated must be Neither embarrassing nor embarrassing, out of sight."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but sighed in the direction of the young master. "Poor young master, I don't know how he survived these years."

These words severely stepped on the sensitive nerves of the young mistress's wife.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

She gritted her teeth and roared angrily, and with a random swipe from her waist, she pulled out a whip and swung it towards Gu Caiwei.

Seeing this, Du Juanqing quickly pulled Gu Caiwei behind him.

Du Yi was also shocked. "Don't hurt my mother!"

While yelling, he galloped over.

At the same time, the young master also made a timely move, grabbed the hand of the young master's wife, pulled her, and dragged her back with the whip.

With many efforts, only the end of the slender whip was thrown in front of Gu Caiwei, and then was blocked by Du Yi who rushed over, and landed hard on his back.

Du Yi immediately let out a muffled groan, and Du Juanqing turned back to support him. "Ayi, how are you doing?"

Gu Caiwei also came back to her senses, she turned Du Yi over to take a look, her eyes immediately turned cold. "Young master's wife has such a temper! I just said a few words of truth, and you were so angry that you directly attacked a child? And this is the child you keep saying you want to take back and treat it like your own son?"

Now that the weather is cold, Du Yi is wearing several layers of thick clothes.As a result, the whip tail fell on him now, and his clothes were split into two layers, revealing the innermost shirt.

If the weather had been warmer, he would have been thrown to pieces!
Even if the whip and tail are so ruthless, if the young master didn't pull her away, would it be okay?
The young mistress sneered. "The person I want to hit is you! Not him at all!"

"However, what do you think he will think of you when he fights against the elder he respects most in front of this child? Will he still treat you like a mother?" Gu Caiwei asked again.

"You don't need to worry about this insecurity, I have my own solution!" The young lady's wife hummed.

Gu Caiwei also sneered. "What can I do? It's just a trick of beating me up and twisting me. It's like...you are forcing the young master to marry you, isn't it?"

"you!"

The young mistress was so angry that she wanted to swing the whip again.

The young master firmly held her hand, not allowing her to move.

Gu Caiwei clapped her hands. "Look, I'll say that your gentleness is all just pretending! Just after being provoked by someone, you have revealed your true nature. You are still that arrogant and willful little lady in your bones, so you forced yourself to be gentle and obedient, pretending to be It's just a little superficial. You can only coax yourself like this, and everyone else can see that you don't really want to be like this."

"Gu Caiwei! Don't think that I can't do anything to you now that you are in the court! As long as I want, I can take your life anytime!" The young lady yelled angrily.

"I know. As the young master's wife, you can definitely do it. But I also think that the young master will not allow you to do this." Gu Caiwei said lightly, "Young master, do you think so?"

The young mistress turned around immediately. "Cousin..."

"Madam, that's enough, don't make trouble anymore." Only then did the young master speak again.

The young lady's shoulders suddenly collapsed, and all the strength in her body seemed to be sucked out in an instant.

"Cousin, you haven't forgotten that woman until now, have you?" She asked weakly.

The young master's response was to remove the whip from her hand and hand her over to the person next to her. "Madam is not feeling well, you take her down to rest, and ask the doctor to give her a diagnosis and treatment."

"No, I'm not leaving! Cousin, I'm really doing this for your own good! You have to believe me! Keep this child, I will definitely treat him well in the future, and I will treat him as my own, absolutely Don't hurt a single finger of him! Cousin, trust me!" They were all grabbed hands and feet, and the young lady was still struggling and shouting.

But the young master was unmoved, and the people around him didn't dare to say much when they saw this, so they quickly dragged the young master's wife down.

After they were taken away, he said coldly: "It's all a misunderstanding, you can go now—take your son with you."

Du Juanqing didn't move, he just looked at the cold man in front of him coldly: "I think you should give me an explanation about you and my sister, and my sister's death."

"Don't you already know everything you should know?" the young master said quietly.

"But I want to hear from you." Du Juan said clearly, walking in front of him step by step.

The young master stood still, not even looking at him.

This disregard made Du Juanqing angry.

"Father!" Seeing this, Du Yi quickly ran over to hold him back.

But Gu Caiwei found that when Du Yi called out "Daddy", the young master's eyes flickered.

Hey!
With a long sigh in her heart, Gu Caiwei walked forward slowly. "Young master, since you have reached this point, why do you need to hide it? However, I know that you are not good at words, so now I will ask and you will answer, okay?"

The young master is still silent.

Gu Caiwei nodded. "If you don't speak, then I will take it as your agreement!"

Then she nodded to Du Yi, and Du Yi quickly pulled Du Juanqing aside.

Gu Caiwei took the initiative to stand opposite the young master, and she asked softly: "When you met Ayi and his mother, you two were in love with each other, right?"

The young master paused before nodding his head.

Gu Caiwei nodded. "This can explain why she is not willing to kill her when she is pregnant. You like her, and she also likes you. I would not be willing to kill this child that was nourished by love."

The young master's eyes flashed again.

Gu Caiwei smiled again: "It's just that you have no match and no employment with her, and you also know that this love will not last long. You are destined to marry your cousin, so you will stop the loss and leave in time when the love is strong. her, did you?"

The young master nodded again.

"It's a pity that you were still young at that time, and you ignored two facts—first, you didn't expect that she would be pregnant with your flesh and blood; You are his property, and he knows everything about you. Then, when she found out about you outside, she took the initiative to find Ayi and her mother."

The young master lowered his eyes, but still nodded his head almost invisible.

When Du Juanqing saw this, he was immediately furious again.

"So it's because of you again! Let me just say, how could my sister, with such a gentle and open-minded temperament, give up on herself because of a single emotional injury, and even give up her child? So it's you... It's all because of you! Since you have someone to marry, why did you provoke my elder sister? See what you have done to her?"

Extremely angry, he just wanted to rush over and chop this bastard into pieces!
It's just... being forcibly held back by Du Yi, he found that he couldn't move at all, so now he could only speak quickly.

"I'm sorry." The young master finally spoke, but these three words came out of his mouth.

Du Juan sneered. "Who wants you? I'm sorry? I just want my elder sister to come back to life, so that she can continue to live in peace and stability! I don't ask her to marry any noble person at all, I would rather she marry a commoner, and live forever Living a life of necessities, mediocrity, this life will be fine!"

The young master stopped talking.

Gu Caiwei shook her head helplessly, and she continued to ask: "So, you have always known about Ayi's existence, and you have always ignored him because you have always known about Ayi's existence. Last time, you even said in public that you would not recognize him. words, right?"

The young master nodded again.

"Then, in the future, you won't take the initiative to recognize him, and you won't forcefully bring him back to recognize his ancestors, will you?"

The young master still just nodded.

Gu Caiwei nodded. "Okay, I see. Thanks."

After finishing speaking, she waved to Du Yi. "Okay, this matter is clear, let's go!"

"I'm not leaving! I want to settle all the old accounts with him!" Du Juan roared angrily.

Under this man's anger, a force burst out from his bones, and it was really difficult for Du Yi to drag him away.He quickly winked at Gu Tianyuan: "Little uncle, come and help me!"

"Hey, good!"

Gu Tianyuan responded quickly, he ran to grab Du Juanqing's other arm, and the uncle and nephew carried Du Juanqing out together.

All the way out, unimpeded.

It's just that when he walked out of the last palace gate, a middle-aged man in his forties suddenly walked up to him. He had a beautiful beard on his chin, and he looked handsome. If he walked on the street, he must be very eye-catching.

This person walked forward in a hurry, turning a blind eye to Gu Caiwei and the others, passing them by.

But Du Yi couldn't help but looked at him deeply, and then asked Gu Caiwei. "who is he?"

"Let's go out and talk about it." Gu Caiwei only said.

When they got outside, the carriage that sent them away was already waiting there, but the one driving the carriage was no longer that young gentleman.

After several people got into the car, Du Yi and Gu Tianyuan finally let go of their hands.

"Du Yi! How dare you offend me!"

Du Juanqing regained his freedom, immediately roared loudly, and raised his hand high.

Du Yi hastily hugged his arm: "Father, I was wrong! If you're not happy, just hit me, just hit me, don't hold back the strength. Anyway, I'm rough-skinned and thick-skinned, so I'm very experienced in beating me!"

As soon as Du Juanqing lowered his head and saw his back being slapped by the young master's wife, his heart softened in a mess, so how could he be willing to do it?

"You... hey!"

He was unable to take back his hand, so he said bitterly: "Your strength is indeed strong enough, my arm is still hurting now."

Du Yi quickly stuck out his tongue. "Father, I was wrong."

Du Juan snorted coldly, ignored him, and turned to Gu Caiwei instead.

At this time, Gu Caiwei also changed her resolute and courageous image when she was in front of the young master and his wife. She immediately shrank her neck, not daring to look at Du Juanqing.

Du Juan sneered again. "Isn't there still something to say? You continue to say, I have already forgotten what happened just now."

Gu Caiwei sighed. "You know the cause of the matter clearly in your heart, so why listen to me anymore? Everyone is young and frivolous, and when he is desperate for one thing or one person, the young master is the same. Back then you would rather sacrifice your life Isn’t it the same for marriage to marry a sister into the door? It’s just that some people are impulsive, and there is still room for redemption after they react, but some people can’t, and this is beyond their control. To blame, also I can only blame God for being too naughty, always fond of messing around with other people's lives for fun."

As she spoke, she touched Du Yi's head again. "How have you been these two days? Have they bullied you?"

"No." Du Yi quickly shook his head, "Actually, I was locked up after I was brought here on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, and was only released on the night of the New Year's Eve. That woman said in front of many people that she wanted me to admit The ancestor returned to the clan. At that time, that person refused, and then almost had a big fight with her on the spot. And at that time, I also expressed my point of view, directly saying that I did not recognize them! But those who almost wanted to use their eyes at the beginning The person who killed me was terrified. At that time, I almost thought I was going to die in that ghost place."

Having said that, he even smiled triumphantly!

When Gu Caiwei heard this, her face immediately changed drastically.

"It's over! Now you are really the target of public criticism, we shouldn't have brought you out!"
