Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 273 Asking the capital
Hearing the sound of Gu Yanchao's footsteps gradually walking away, Gu Yanling still maintained her sitting position, but her face was covered with wet tears unknowingly.

Looking at the silent crying self in the bronze mirror, Gu Yanling felt how ironic and ridiculous the self in the mirror was.

She has been living cautiously all her life, the only time she fought for herself, and she was bruised all over her body, even her loved ones lost their precious lives because of her actions.

These high-ranking people can easily decide their life and death. These people who claim to be her relatives are really playing with her from the beginning to the end. Since they didn't regard her as important at the beginning, why still You have to tell her time and time again that she is a girl from the Gu family, and she can have what other girls can have.

After being oppressed in the Gu family for so many years, she had already accepted her fate, but why did these people give her hope when she was about to give up, and then after giving her hope, they threw her from the cloud again? Kick it down, and watch her fall to the point where her head is bleeding.

Is it the interest of these people to play with their defenseless beings?Seeing her struggling to survive and struggle like a poor worm, didn't it please their bad taste?

Thinking of this, Gu Yanling swept the rouge powder and bottles and cans on the dressing table to the ground. Hearing the broken sound of the porcelain bottle on the ground, she felt as if she had been smashed to pieces. The skin on his body was about to split.

Sitting on the stool, Gu Yanling hugged herself tightly, as if only by doing so, could she feel a little bit of warmth.

After walking out of the room, Gu Yanchao didn't walk too far when he heard the sound of something falling to the ground from the room. Looking at the Chifeng who was coming, Gu Yanchao said, "You don't have to go, she is still stubborn It doesn't work, as we guessed, she blamed Aunt Xiang's death on Jiaojiao. Oh yes, she seems to hate your young master now, she doesn't listen to anyone, she's so stubborn I think the whole world owes her."

Hearing what Gu Yanchao said, Chi Feng laughed angrily: "I remember my young master once said a word, saying that the more silent a person is, the more likely he will be able to give people the most unexpected results in the end. I didn't expect this sentence to be so I used it on Gu Yanling. When I was in the Gu Mansion, I always thought that she was the most insignificant existence in the Gu Mansion. I thought she was shy and introverted, and she was a good and sensible girl; Understand a truth, don't make a conclusion easily for a person, because you can only know something like human nature after experiencing it."

"My son is also innocent. He sits at home and the disaster comes from the sky. Who would have thought that he would be targeted by such a mad woman without loving her? This kind of woman It's too scary, Second Young Master, to put it bluntly, isn't the feng shui of your Gu Mansion Heng Guangyuan not very good? Otherwise, how can this second room always get out of such a child of the Gu family who can make moths?!"

Gu Yanchao knew that Chifeng's words were meant to be a bit of a joke, so he shrugged with a smile and said, "You ask me, how would I know, why don't I tell my mother when I get home, and ask her to find me?" A well-known Feng Shui master to show Heng Guang Yuan?"

Chifeng looked at Gu Yanchao's serious look, and couldn't help laughing; he really deserves to be the brother of the third girl, and his personality is the same as the third girl. He is such a fun person. After a little comparison in his heart, Chifeng found that , Gu Yanchao is actually more interesting than Chifeng.

Therefore, in terms of what to say next, he seemed to relax a lot: "Second son, my son wants me to help you deal with Aunt Xiang's affairs, do you think there is anything I can do to help?"

"Aunt Xiang is just an aunt. Although it is sympathetic to die in vain, her identity is there after all, and the Gu family will not make a big fuss because of her death; so according to the meaning of the elders in the family, use a bottle Wait for the coffin to contain it, and then bury it directly in the Gu family's cemetery. The servants I brought can handle these things, and you just need to take care of your son right now, and I can handle these small things."

Chi Feng said: "Okay, since that's the case, I won't stay here to disturb the Second Young Master too much, but it's still a word, if the Second Young Master needs someone, just come to me."

After finishing speaking, Chi Feng cupped his fists at Gu Yanchao, and after paying respects, he went back the way he came.

Gu Yanchao also started to busy himself with the things in hand, and he was busy for most of the day, until it was sunset, and then he went to Gu Yanxi's yard to get a cup of tea.

Seeing his eldest brother who was so busy with his feet not touching the ground when he first arrived, Gu Yanxi naturally felt distressed, and immediately asked Luo Mei to serve Gu Yanchao some snacks, so that he would not be hungry before it was time to eat.

Gu Yanchao took a look at Gu Yanxi while eating the dim sum carefully prepared by the cook, and saw that her complexion was indeed a little better than when she saw her in the morning, so he immediately attributed his little sister's good complexion to him body.

"Jiaojiao is so happy to see big brother, it seems that your spirit has improved a lot."

Gu Yanxi reached out and touched his face, not denying his elder brother, and said with a smile: "My brother can come to see me, I am naturally very happy; brother, you can stay in the villa for a few more days this time, My health is almost recovered, let's go back together later, okay?"

Gu Yanchao threw the last morsel of dim sum into his mouth, patted the crumbs on his hands, and said, "It's not that elder brother won't stay with you, it's that I've already entered the palace on duty, and it's rare to find time to see you today."

"Are you entering the palace on duty so soon?"

Gu Yanchao said: "The day after the imperial physician confirmed that no one in our mansion was infected by the pox, the emperor sent an order, asking me to enter the palace to be on duty."

Hearing Gu Yanchao mentioned the emperor, Gu Yanxi thought of a very important matter, and asked tentatively: "Brother, I heard that the emperor condemned Princess Wen Xian, you often walk in the palace, you should be more informed , tell me what happened to Princess Wen Xian now?!"

Gu Yanchao had always indulged Gu Yanxi, and he did not shy away from her in many things. Seeing that she was interested in this matter, he told her everything he knew.

"Princess Wen Xianchang has done many things that harm people in the capital these years. The emperor pampered her back then because they were brothers and sisters of the same mother. Over the years, as the emperor has grown old, he has become especially harsh on many people around him. It is already a blessing for Princess Wen Xian to survive until now. So this time the emperor conceded the crime, although the eldest princess She was kicked out of the capital, but luckily she still saved her identity and life, but recently I heard rumors that something happened to Princess Wen Xian."

Gu Yanxi's heart suddenly twitched, for fear that Feng Yichen's abduction of Princess Wen Xian would be known, and his whole body tensed up, pretending to know nothing in front of Gu Yanchao, and asked: "Princess Wen Xian is here?" What's the matter?"

Gu Yanchao lowered his voice and said: "The carriage of the eldest princess disappeared not long after leaving the capital. I heard that the post chief who was in charge of receiving the eldest princess was punished. This matter was quietly passed on to the palace. After all, it was a princess who disappeared without a trace. If it got out, it would definitely become a talking point for the common people. After the emperor knew about it, he immediately became furious. If I hadn’t often walked in front of the emperor, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have known about it. Details. Later, I heard from the palace servants who served the emperor that the emperor thought that this matter was probably a play put on by the eldest princess herself, because she didn't want to go to the remote southwest."

Gu Yanxi did not expect that Emperor Wu of Liang's thinking would be so thoroughly grasped by Feng Yichen. It seems that the relationship between Emperor Wu of Liang and Princess Wen Xian is not as good as the outside world says; if it is really a close sister Brother, after knowing that his own sister had disappeared, there was no need to lose his temper, so he immediately sent someone to look for her.

Judging from Emperor Liang Wu's attitude at the moment, he should not care about Princess Wen Xian's life or death, and now she is relieved, and no longer has to worry that Feng Yichen's kidnapping of Princess Wen Xian will be noticed.

Gu Yanchao looked at Gu Yanxi's long sigh of relief, and asked curiously: "Why are you so emotionally ups and downs? Why, do you really pay attention to Princess Wen Xian's affairs? I remember that you were in the capital, and it seemed that you were with the princess. The government is not very intimate."

Gu Yanxi was afraid that his elder brother would see something, so he hurriedly laughed and laughed: "Brother, what are you talking about, I just feel that the once-prominent Princess Palace has fallen like this, so I can't help but feel a little embarrassed."

Gu Yanchao didn't think too much about it, and said to himself: "It's actually a good thing for the majority of the people in the capital that the Princess's Mansion can fall at this time; There is Princess Wen Xian, who is also very good at controlling power. It is really not a good thing for the capital to have such a mother and son who can make troubles; now that the Princess's mansion is sealed, many people in the capital are applauding in private. In recent years, the emperor has handled this matter beautifully, which is very pleasing to the hearts of the people."

When Gu Yanxi heard these words, he also smiled.

For a moment, I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, if the people in the capital knew that Feng Yichen was the person behind the downfall of the Princess' Mansion, would those people thank him in their hearts?

It should be, after all, no matter what purpose Feng Yichen had for pulling down Princess Wen Xian, his actions in the end directly caused the princess to lose her favor; The head work is done vigorously.
