Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 117 Talking with Father and Daughter
Seeing Gu Yanwen leaving sullenly, a gray figure that had been hiding in the dark slowly came out.

After taking a closer look, he realized that this person was Lu Shao, his confidant who usually followed Gu Shen.

Lu Shao has been by Gu Shen's side since he was a child, and he can be regarded as one of the people Gu Shen trusted most in his life. He is naturally the one who understands Gu Shen's ambition best.

Now, seeing Gu Yanwen walking out alone, Lu Shao couldn't bear it all the time, and said, "Second master, why don't you tell the eldest girl that you haven't forgotten the pain that happened to her, and sooner or later you will Take it out on her behalf."

Gu Shen, on the other hand, looked indifferent, waved the prayer beads on his wrist, and said, "I told her, so what?"

Lu Shao said: "At the very least, let the eldest girl know that her respected father loves her and will not let her be so disappointed."

"Lost?" Gu Shen sneered a few times, "If she can't even bear this pressure, then she is not qualified to be my daughter. Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have to endure humiliation. What I have lived in this mansion these years is You know best when, compared to me, she is already living in a honeypot; this tribulation is also a test for her, if she can survive, she is eligible to be my child, if not ,..."

Gu Shen's tone paused, and when he spoke again, he was ruthless: "Let her go and be with her useless mother, anyway, they are the real mother and daughter, aren't they?"

Lu Shao knew that Gu Shen's words were definitely not just for fun, he was very clear about the temperament of his serving master; in order to achieve his goal, even he could hurt himself, what else in this world could he not sacrificial?

Thinking of this, Lu Shao shut his mouth and stopped talking, because he knew that, judging by Gu Shen's stubborn temperament, it would be useless even if he broke his mouth at this moment; if this is the case, then why should he say more ?

Gu Shen glanced at the silent Lu Shao, "I want you to arrange something, how is it?"

"Second Master, don't worry, everything is ready, I only owe Dongfeng."

"Okay, if this matter is done, half of Gu's mansion will be mine." Having said this, Gu Shen's eyes flashed a sinister look, and those ambitious eyes were filled with countless things he couldn't count. desire, and that beast-like desire is devouring his conscience and calmness bit by bit, making him gradually become a slave of desire.

As for Lu Shao, he couldn't bear to look at such a second master, and finally he could only sigh in his heart, feeling that the most vicious thing in this world is the human heart.

At night, an unexpected and unexpected person came to Gu Yanxi's yard.

Seeing his father, who couldn't even change his official uniform in the future, walk in wearing a royal blue gown, Gu Yanxi quickly stood up, handed the bird food for the gem to Xiaokui who was waiting by his side, and quickly responded : "Daddy is here. It's cold outside. Daddy, drink a cup of hot tea to warm up."

While talking, Gu Yanxi warmly greeted Gu Jin to sit down, and at the same time poured him a cup of steaming fragrant tea.

Gu Jin loves his youngest daughter the most. It stands to reason that he is young and can add another child to the Gu family at this time, but Gu Jin and Lin's relationship is very good. When Lin gave birth to Gu Yanxi, it was difficult to give birth. It took two days and two nights of labor pains to give birth to this tortured little thing; this dystocia frightened Gu Jin, and since then, Gu Jin has tried his best to prevent Lin from getting pregnant. To protect my beloved wife.

It's just that no one knows about this except himself, so he knows very well that Gu Yanxi's daughter will be the last child in his life, and she is destined to be his most beloved little daughter.

Now seeing his most beloved daughter standing in front of him slim and graceful, he took a big sip of the tea she poured, and felt that his mouth was full of fragrance, which made him very fond of it.

But when his eyes came into contact with his daughter's injured neck wrapped in a scarf, his pupils were heavy, and his tone was distressed, and he asked, "Is your neck still hurting? You must remember to eat lightly for the past two days to recover from your injury." Some, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell daddy, at worst, daddy will ask the imperial decree to order the imperial physician for you."

Gu Yanxi naturally knows how much her father loves her the most. Seeing him so nervous about herself, she feels warm and ashamed in her heart. She sits obediently beside her father just like when she was a child, resting her head on his shoulder, speaking in a coquettish tone Said: "Dad, don't worry, the medicine that Doctor Wen prepared is very good. After applying it, it's cool, and I don't feel any pain at all; besides, Doctor Wen also said that such flesh and blood injuries can be cured in a few days. There will be scars, so Daddy, you just put your heart in your stomach and don't worry about me anymore."

Gu Jin patted her precious daughter's head in satisfaction, looked at her vivid eyebrows and eyes, and remembered the purpose of coming here to find her tonight.

To be honest, no matter what outsiders say, he doesn't care, but right now, he wants to know what his child is thinking, because he finds that Jiaojiao seems to be a little different from before. Yes, this change made him a little puzzled and even a little uneasy.

Gu Jin glanced at Xiaokui who was waiting on the side, "Go to Xiyun Courtyard and tell Madam, I will talk to the third girl here in Furong Courtyard, and then go back to eat later, let her eat by herself first, no need wait for me."

Xiaokui immediately took orders and went down to work.

Gu Yanxi, however, understood her father's true intentions at once. She blinked her crystal clear eyes and looked at the best father in her mind, "Father, you have something to tell me, right? That's why you said Xiaokui sent her away on purpose."

Gu Shen stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of Gu Yanxi's nose, and said with a smile: "You're really a ghost, and you can't hide anything from you; Jiaojiao, don't blame Daddy for coming to you at night to say these things to you, Daddy It's because I'm very worried about you, it's not that I don't believe you; you are Daddy's daughter, no matter what you do, even if it's wrong, Daddy can help you take care of it, but Daddy wants you to tell the truth here. Did you do what happened in Furong Courtyard or Hengguang Courtyard?"

Gu Yanxi knew that after her father saw everything through, sooner or later, she would tell Gu Jin everything, but she was surprised that this day came so early.

But, as Gu Jin said, no matter what she did, even if she did something wrong, he would not abandon her easily. For this sentence, Gu Yanxi will always believe in it.

So, since she was asked, she didn't intend to hide it anymore.

Gu Yanxi, who sat up straight, looked like an obedient and well-behaved child, no different from the past, but the flickering color of those eyes gradually changed, becoming firm and cold.

"Father, you guessed right. The things that happened during this period are directly or indirectly related to me. It was indeed me who pushed Gu Yanwen into the water that day. I did it on purpose. I know Second Aunt can't see it." I'm used to me, so I stimulated her in a disguised form, making her become angry and attack me; and Zishan, she is obviously my girl, but she is trying to entrap me with Gu Yanwen, and I don't want to show mercy to those who betray me. I set a trap for her; if she hadn't had evil intentions, she wouldn't have ended up like this, but people's desires are really terrible, for her own sake, she still chose to betray me and hurt me in the end."

"Although I am also a victim in these things, I admit that there are my plans and schemes in it; the words that Zishan shouted before she died are not wrong at all. She is not a good person, and neither am I. The kind and deceitful third girl of the Gu family."

Speaking of this, Gu Yanxi's eyes were a little uneasy, and he looked at his father: "Father, I have done so many bad things, are you disappointed in me? Do you think I am also that kind of femme fatale woman? "

Gu Jin saw the uneasiness in Gu Yanxi's eyes at a glance. To be honest, if these things happened to others, he might think that this girl was too thoughtful and not kind, but when it happened to his own daughter, he couldn't hate it. , Can't even say a heavy word to her.

Perhaps, people's hearts are really biased. Even if the child they gave birth to is really bad, they are reluctant to lose her.

Therefore, in the face of Gu Yanxi's uneasiness, Gu Jin hugged her tightly into his arms almost immediately, with distress in his eyes, as well as self-reflection and annoyance.

"Jiaojiao, it's Daddy who's sorry for you, it's Daddy who didn't protect you well, that's why so many things happened around you."

As he said that, Gu Jin supported Gu Yanxi's shoulders, looked at her face seriously, and said, "Do you still remember what Dad said to Zi Shan?"

Gu Yanxi nodded.

Gu Jin continued: "Those words are definitely not just spoken casually. When Dad said those words, he meant them from the bottom of his heart. In fact, I noticed your strangeness a few days ago, and realized that Gu Yanwen's drowning might be real It has something to do with you, when I knew it, I was really conflicted; on the one hand, I didn’t understand why you suddenly became like this, but you know who you were before, but you were so kind and simple that you couldn’t bear to step on an ant How could you be cruel to your cousin? To be honest, I was a little disappointed at that time, and felt that my daughter had changed so much that I didn't know her, and she even changed beyond recognition. "

"However, on the other hand, there is a voice that keeps ringing in my mind, that is, I am delighted with your change; Jiaojiao, the world we live in is a world of the weak and the strong, and as long as there are people, there will be intrigues." , I have never believed that a person can rely on innocence and kindness to live a safe and worry-free life; I was a little worried that your pure temper might bring you trouble, but now, I am completely at ease."
