Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 219

Gu Yanchao put away the door bolt in his hand, looked at the man in the dark dressed like a funeral, and sized him up and down.

Seeing that except for a pair of eyes exposed outside, he actually covered his whole body tightly, so mysterious, it really echoes Feng Yichen's behavior; it seems that the guest who lives in their house is really not to be underestimated Yes, there will be such a person by his side.

But, what is his real identity?Is he really just a wealthy, disabled, ordinary son?

You must know that ordinary people don't have such subordinates.

Although Gu Yanchao had doubts about Feng Yichen's identity in his heart, he also knew that this was not the time to talk about such things, so he walked to the desk, poured himself a cup of tea for himself, took a sip, and said, "Yes Feng Yichen asked you to come to me? As far as I know, I don't have any friendship with the young man you mentioned, so you came to me, did you find the wrong one?"

"That's right, Second Young Master, my Young Master did indeed send his subordinates to look for you for something, and this matter has something to do with Third Miss's illness."

Gu Yanchao immediately put down the teacup in his hand, his brows furrowed: "What do you mean by that? Could it be that Feng Yichen found out how my sister got the pox?"

The subordinate said: "My son is just suspicious now, and there is no conclusive evidence, but if nothing happens, it should be almost the same."

Gu Yan had obvious anger on his face: "Tell me, who is that person!"

The subordinate said: "He is from the Gu family. My young master's original words are that since he is from the Gu family, it is inconvenient for him to intervene too much, so that's why he thought of the second son; now the second son is suffering from pox in the house. I can't enter the palace to be on duty because of my relationship, but I can take advantage of this opportunity to investigate; it's just that my young master has a request, that is, after the investigation results are out, I ask the second young master to be calm and don't be impatient. People punished, and after the third girl and my young master come back, hand him over to the third girl?"

"Feng Yichen spared such a big circle, what exactly does it mean? To me, if someone dares to hurt Jiaojiao, I will definitely not let that person go. Since Feng Yichen knows that it is me, Gu Fu, He should also understand that after I find out that person, I will definitely follow the family rules of taking care of the family; but at this time he wants me to leave him to Jiaojiao, what the hell is he playing? Why do you want to involve my sister?"

The subordinate said: "The second son has so many questions right now, it's because you don't know who killed the third girl. If you know that person, you can understand why my son has such an arrangement."

Gu Yanchao said angrily: "Then tell me immediately, who is trying to harm my sister?!"

That subordinate came up, lowered his voice and whispered three words into Gu Yanchao's ear.

After Gu Yanchao heard those three words clearly, he immediately opened his eyes wide, with disbelief written all over his face: "This is impossible, how could it be her?"

The subordinate said: "The shock of the second son is also expected by my son, but according to the current situation, this person is the most likely."

As he said that, the subordinate took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Gu Yanchao, and continued: "This is the letter my young master asked me to give to the second young master, and all the doubts and questions of the second young master are clearly written on it. Answer; after I leave, Second Young Master might as well open it up and have a look, then you can decide whether to follow my Young Master's arrangement."

The subordinate added another sentence, saying: "My son said that he believes that the second son will definitely make the most correct and appropriate decision, because he believes in your love for the third girl; and the reason why my son will do this , also because everything is for the third girl."

After speaking, the subordinate left as quietly as when he came.

In the huge study room, Gu Yanchao was the only one left in the blink of an eye.

Standing in a well-lit place, he seemed to have summoned up a lot of courage, and then he opened the letter. After reading the contents of the letter clearly, the anger in his heart overwhelmed the shock, "I really didn't expect that. The dog that bites does not bark, it seems that this sentence is really reasonable, who would have thought that the girl who looks obedient and clever, who can't even speak loudly, is so cruel that even a poisonous woman is ashamed of herself .”

After reading it, Gu Yanchao closed the letter, opened the door of the study, and called Zhuang Li who had not gone to Muran Villa with Gu Yanxi.

"Go and investigate all the whereabouts of the second girl during this period, especially before the third girl fell ill, when she had contact with the second girl, and how long they stayed together; remember, do this Keep a low profile when it comes to things, so as not to be discovered by people from Hengguangyuan and Ziting Xiaolou."

"Yes." Zhuang Li immediately took the order and left.

After Zhuang Li left, Gu Yanchao put his hands behind his back, stared forward, and remained silent for a long time. Although his face was so calm that it was impossible to detect what he was thinking, those bright eyes showed that he was currently thinking about something. contrived plan.

Although he didn't want to be led by the nose by Feng Yichen, this matter was related to Jiaojiao, which was equivalent to grabbing his weakness. After sending him the letter, he really agreed with Feng Yichen's approach.

The relationship between Jiaojiao and Gu Yanling has always been very close. If he really finds out that this matter is related to Gu Yanling, with Jiaojiao's intelligence, she will know the truth sooner or later, so instead of trying to hide it, it is better to Tell the truth directly, so as not to add to the misunderstanding between the brothers and sisters because of Gu Yanling in the future.

Moreover, he could understand another deep meaning of Feng Yichen's handing over Gu Yanling to Jiaojiao.

Jiaojiao is extremely intelligent, if it wasn't because she blindly trusted Gu Yanling too much, how could it be possible for Gu Yanling to take advantage of her loopholes and harm herself?Feng Yichen's arrangement is nothing more than to remind Jiaojiao that even the close people around him should not completely let go of their vigilance, especially when dealing with those seemingly gentle and harmless people, it is the best policy to be careful at all times .

The capital city is inherently treacherous, and whoever lives here does not have a delicate heart?Even a mother who is well protected by her father has the means to settle down; Jiaojiao will marry the Gu family sooner or later, and he hopes that his sister can live in peace forever and not be an adulterer. harmed.

That's why he longed for her to grow up. Even if the road to growth is accompanied by sweat and blood, it's better than being murdered by an adulterer and bleeding her body dry.

However, there is one more thing that Gu Yanchao is more concerned about, that is, why does Gu Yanling, who is so good-looking, suddenly attack Jiaojiao?
Could it be that there was some opportunity in the middle of this, which aroused Gu Yanling's vicious heart that had been hidden all along?

Gu Yanchao rolled his eyes, thought for a while, and then decided to meet his mother. Her mother has been in charge of the back house for many years, so she should know many things very well. Ask her first, maybe you can get some clues.

Gu Yanchao was a man of action, and he wanted to do it while thinking about it, but when he came near Xiyunyuan, he met an unexpected person.

Shi Haoyuan, who has reached the age of 16, is tall and strong. Although his skin is slightly dark, his facial features are very tough and delicate, especially his eyes. To little Huya, he looked handsome and kind of loyal.

Today's Shi Haoyuan is obviously accompanying his mother to visit New Year's Eve, he is tall and straight in royal blue brocade clothes, and he is tough, maybe because he has already started martial arts, he actually has some sassy style that only warriors have on his body; Looking at Shi Haoyuan like this, Gu Yanchao swept away the gloominess between his brows, and smiled heartily. His whole body seemed to have changed from a cold iceman to a noble young man who came from the gentle wind and drizzle. .

Gu Yanchao saw Shi Haoyuan, and Shi Haoyuan naturally saw Gu Yanchao. Due to various relationships, Shi Haoyuan naturally wanted to quickly step forward to salute: "Cousin, I was just about to find you, but I didn't expect you to come already."

Gu Yanchao was naturally very happy to see Shi Haoyuan, and warmly stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, appreciating him: "You are taller and stronger, it seems that the landscape of Tongcheng is still very nourishing, you used to be Thin and small, like a wild cat that can't grow up."

When his cousin mentioned him back then, Shi Haoyuan looked a little shy, with a red face on his face, he said: "How many years older, the stature and physique naturally have to grow, but the cousin is still as charming as before, He is a role model for me to learn from.”

"Okay, it's fine for others to flatter me, but now even you are doing it too, I'm really not used to it."

Speaking of this, Gu Yanchao's face darkened, with worry: "Did my aunt come too? Didn't you receive the letter from your mother? There is something wrong with Gu's house right now. Just in case, I will go to the Even if the palace is not on duty, why did you and your aunt pick this time to come?"

Shi Haoyuan said: "Isn't it the Chinese New Year? Relatives naturally have to move around. We are not those ignorant people. After hearing the word 'pox epidemic', we are frightened and change our faces. We can't avoid it. Although this pox epidemic It's dangerous, but if you want to be infected, there is a process; besides, you are not the ones who got the pox, why should we be like those guys who don't understand anything, even you dare not approach."

Hearing what Shi Haoyuan said, Gu Yanchao was naturally happy, but he was still a little worried, so he said a few words: "No matter what, be careful when sailing for ten thousand years. After you and your aunt get home, you still need to clean yourself carefully. Wash your hands, it's best to observe yourself for another two days, if it's all right, then it should be all right."

"Cousin, don't worry, we all know this, cousin... I have something to ask you..."

Seeing Shi Haoyuan's hesitation suddenly, Gu Yanchao knew what he wanted to ask, "You want to ask about Jiaojiao's situation, right?"

Shi Haoyuan nodded worriedly, and said: "Originally, my mother and I set off from Tongcheng a long time ago, but I didn't expect that my mother was weak and fell ill twice on the way, which delayed the journey back; Not long after I came back, before I had time to go to Gu’s mansion to greet my uncle and aunt, there was a pox epidemic in Gu’s mansion. Cousin, I heard that Jiaojiao’s pox disease is very dangerous this time, and she has been sent out of the capital to go out of the city I just want to ask, which Zhuangzi did you send her to? Also, how is she doing now? Just now when my mother mentioned Jiaojiao, my aunt burst into tears and said everything. I don’t understand, I’m also confused, I’m really anxious.”

Gu Yanchao knew Shi Haoyuan's feelings for Jiaojiao, and he was optimistic about his cousin at first. After all, he knew everything, was honest, and had a good family background. When Jiaojiao married him in the future, he was not afraid that he would dare to wrong Jiaojiao.

But unexpectedly, Feng Yichen jumped out on the way.

Thinking of Feng Yichen's behavior and mysterious identity, Gu Yanchao became furious. A paralyzed person who can't even walk, what ability will he have to make Jiaojiao happy in the future?What worried him even more was that Jiaojiao seemed to have taken a fancy to Feng Yichen, which was what really gave him a headache.

Now, seeing Shi Haoyuan's devotion to Jiaojiao, Gu Yanchao felt guilty, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was an opportunity.

Anyway, Jiaojiao is still young, and she still has a few years to marry. In these few years, everything is subject to change. As long as they seize the opportunity of these few years and let Shi Haoyuan perform well in front of Jiaojiao, he will be happy. Don't believe it, a tall and handsome Shi Haoyuan can't compare to a paralyzed man in a wheelchair?
Therefore, when he looked at Shi Haoyuan again, Gu Yanchao seemed to be looking at his future brother-in-law, his eyes were full of satisfaction, and he said, "Haoyuan, I know you are worried about Jiaojiao, but it's true that Jiaojiao has already got acne. There is a great possibility that she will be infected if you get close to her, so let's wait for her to recover from her illness in peace in the capital; don't worry, Jiaojiao will be served by doctors and servants outside the city, and she will not be wronged."

"Cousin, I'm not afraid!" Shi Haoyuan patted his chest eagerly, and said: "You see, my body is so good, I won't be infected so easily, I just want to know where Jiaojiao came from." Rehabilitation, I haven't seen her for many years, I really want to visit her."

"Confused, I know you're not afraid, but aren't your father and mother afraid?" Gu Yanchao acted like a big brother and taught Shi Haoyuan a lesson: "You are the only son of the Shi family, if something happens to you, how can we talk to your aunt? Confession? Your life is related to the future of the Shi family, so it can't be played around with."

Being reprimanded by Gu Yanchao, Shi Haoyuan naturally didn't dare to speak back, but he wrote his thoughts all over his face, and his whole body suddenly changed from radiant to sluggish, like an eggplant beaten by frost, looking wilted.

Looking at Shi Haoyuan like this, Gu Yanchao felt helpless, but he would never soften his heart just because he looked at Shi Haoyuan pitifully, and really told him Jiaojiao's address outside the city, and watched him do stupid things.
