Rebirth of marriage

The mask on Wang Shuyan's face was split in half from the center of her eyebrows down, revealing a beautiful face in front of everyone.

"What happened to Mrs. Cao Si?" Gu Xiao's calm voice sounded, and he walked towards the Cao family with Xie Jiu.

Without waiting for the Cao family to reply, he added, "When I saw the fourth lady wearing a mask, I thought it was because her appearance was damaged, but it turned out not to be the case."

He seemed puzzled, "In that case, why should I be wearing a mask?"

"Perhaps he has done something that makes him shameless." Xie Jiu looked at the woman opposite him who had the same appearance as him, as if he was looking in a mirror.

Wang Shuyan's face showed no signs of age, probably because she wore a mask all year round. It had a cold whiteness that made her even more pitiful.

There was uneasiness and panic on her face that was inappropriate for her age. She threw herself into Cao Zhiru's arms and said delicately, "Brother Ru, let's go home."

For some reason, the look in the eyes of the woman next to King Xiao made her feel very uncomfortable.

Xie Jiu remembered that Yanyan was innocent and ignorant in what Yu Zhifu said, and recalled that Yu Zhifu said that Wang Shuyan had been imitating Yanyan after meeting Cao Zhiru, and her stomach churns.

Li Moli's voice sounded at the right time, "Hey, Your Majesty, why does this lady look so like Aunt Wu in our house?"

It turns out that this is Xie Jiu’s bastard mother-in-law.

How uncomfortable it must be for Xie Jiu to see her so close to the Cao family's children. Mo Li felt sorry for Xie Jiu.

Gu Xiao nodded, "It is indeed very similar. Could it be that the two of them are related in some way? In other words, I have never noticed where Mrs. Cao Si is from?

My Aunt Wu is the niece of Marquis Wu. It's pitiful to say that the girl was born with a disease from her mother's womb. Her mother, who was fine, suddenly suffered from dystocia. Her maternal grandfather was the prefect of the King of Yancheng and died early. That girl's life experience was so miserable. Very, I wonder if the Fourth Madam knows her? "

Wang Shuyan in Cao Zhiru's arms shrank slightly, and then Cao Zhiru's robe was grasped tighter.

Xie Jiu kept staring at her, taking in all the changes, and she suddenly clenched her fists.

She had asked Mrs. Wu Hou carefully about Mrs. Wu's second wife. After Mrs. Wu married to Wu Hou's house, she was often pulled to exercise by other women in the Wu family who were good at martial arts. She was also in good health during pregnancy, but suddenly had difficulty in giving birth. .

Xie Jiu had wondered whether Wang Shuyan didn't want to expose herself, so she killed her sister who could recognize her, so he asked Gu Xiao to test her. Judging from her reaction just now, he was afraid that she was inseparable.

Wang Shuyan was the treasure in Cao Zhiru's palm, and Mo Li compared her to his aunt, which made Cao Zhiru unable to maintain his calmness anymore, and said angrily, "King Xiao, that's too much."

Following his change of expression, Cao Chengle, who had been unable to restrain himself for a long time, directly attacked Mo Li. He could not touch King Xiao openly. King Xiao's dog could always be moved, but he actually insulted his mother.

Cao Zhiru didn't scold him. His son's martial arts skills were not weak and he couldn't bear the disadvantage. Besides, there were many guards around.

Although he didn't see it, he knew that Shuyan's mask cracked must have been caused by King Xiao, and he became more and more certain that King Xiao appeared here specifically to target them.

King Xiao has always been unwilling to tangle with their Cao family, so it can only be because of that little beast.

He turned his attention to Xie Jiu next to Gu Xiao, fearing that this was the one in front of him.

I really shouldn't have been worried that Yanyan wouldn't be able to explain to her after she woke up, and I should have killed her to save this little beast's life.

The little beast came here in disguise today. He must have known that she was Yanyan's child. He was not stupid, so she could find out. However, she just mentioned the monk. I don't know if it was a coincidence or intentional.

If it is intentional, it means that the little beast not only knows that he is Yanyan's child, but also knows that Shuyan has a dual personality.

She really underestimated her, but back then, even her father could be fooled by him, so the little beast was not afraid.

He looked at Gu Xiao, still smiling, "King Xiao, Cao will remember the humiliation today."

After saying that, he bent down and picked up Wang Shuyan, leading his daughter to the carriage behind. After the family of three sat down, he lifted the curtain and watched quietly for a while. Seeing that Cao Chengle had not gained the upper hand, he shouted, "Le Son, go home."

After the Cao family's team left, Li Sheng came out from the nearby mountain and said, "Pavilion Master, Shao Yifan and his wife refused to leave, so my subordinates had to let the children of Jiuxiao Pavilion take his place.

Qingshu has been secretly brought back to the palace by our people. His child is originally from the Beast Mountain. He has learned some disguise and should be able to hide it from the guards under Cao Zhiru. "

Fortunately, the master of the pavilion asked him to make two preparations and select some skilled children and women from Jiuxiao Pavilion in advance.

Xie Jiu looked at Gu Xiao and said helplessly, "You guessed it right."

When Gu Xiao implemented the widow remarriage decree in Yuyouguan, six-year-old Qingshu sneaked out of home in the middle of the night in order to facilitate the marriage between his mother and uncle, went to Prince Xiao's Mansion, and asked Gu Xiao to preside over the marriage between his mother and uncle Shao Yifan.

It can be regarded as setting a precedent for the implementation of the decree.

Afterwards, Xie Jiu also noticed that after reorganizing the family, the family of three lived a very happy life.

But a few days ago, she received news from Yuyouguan spies. People who looked like matchmakers went to the homes of many widows who had remarried, and asked them about their living conditions after remarriage.

The words guided them to talk about the various disadvantages of remarrying. Xie Jiu thought that someone might be trying to make a fuss about the decree, so he ordered the Jiuxiao Pavilion spies to pay more attention.

That's how they learned about the three members of Run Run Shaw's family who were captured by Cao Zhiru and brought to the capital.

She was sent to Yongninghou Mansion by Cao Zhiru himself.

Cao Zhiru originally thought that she would be killed by the people of the Yongning Hou Mansion on the road to exile, but she didn't expect that with Gu Xiao secretly handing over the official duties and the Xie family's father taking care of the money, she was safely escorted to Yuyou Pass.

In the middle, Cao Zhiru believed that she would definitely die and stopped paying attention to her news. After learning that the Yang family was pardoned and returned to Beijing, he would pay attention to her again.

Knowing that she is still alive and well, the first thing to do is to investigate the official who escorted them into exile. Then the matter of Gu Xiao taking care of her cannot be hidden. Then the Yang family is dead, and only the crazy Hu family and her are left. , Cao Zhiru will soon know her relationship with Gu Xiao.

Even found out or guessed the truth of many things.

The Cao family wanted to target Gu Xiao, while Cao Zhiru wanted her life. Xie Jiu thought about it and understood the purpose of Cao Zhiru bringing Shao Yifan's family of three to Beijing.

Overturning the decree on widow remarriage, holding Gu Xiao accountable, and even extending this to more tricks to frame Gu Xiao.

If you want to overturn this decree, you must prove that it is harmful to the people. The reason why the ancestor emperor disapproved of the widow's remarriage was because after the ancestor emperor's mother took him and his sister to remarry, his stepfather treated them harshly and even killed him. sister.

If Shao Yifan, the stepfather, also killed Qing Shu, Cao Dang would be able to criticize Gu Xiao, who issued the decree, and attack him in groups.

She originally wanted to take advantage of today's chaos to rescue their family of three, but Gu Xiao believed that although Shao Yifan was a scholar, he was a very responsible man and would fight against the Cao family to the end, so she ordered someone to find a substitute and let Li Sheng and his people had been hiding nearby for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Shao Yifan turned out to be what Gu Xiao expected. In this case, he would indeed be able to defeat Cao Zhiru's army, but the Shao family and his wife would also be in deep danger.

She ordered, "Let our people protect you secretly, and be careful yourself."

On the way back, Gu Xiao asked, "Did you find that monk?"

Or test Cao Zhiru?

Xie Jiu smiled, "You've been sending people to look for it, you will find it one day."

Just now I was just testing the Cao family.

Gu Xiao also laughed with a fond smile. After he interrogated Magistrate Yu before, he had been sending people to secretly search for the monk who gave Yu Magistrate the prescription, hoping that the monk could find a way to wake up Yanyan, but so far he has not. Traces of the monk.

Unexpectedly, Xie Jiu knew about his movement first.

Because Qing Shu was secretly sent to the Prince's Mansion, he took a long detour and arrived at Prince Xiao's Mansion with them. The two of them went to see the child first.

Qingshu's family was arrested and brought to the capital. They had just been separated from their parents. They were brought to this strange place. They felt very uneasy. When they saw two acquaintances, Gu Xiao and Xie Jiu, they immediately felt supported and ran towards them.

But as soon as he got close to Xie Jiu, there was something strange about Xie Jiu's wrists. When he lifted up his sleeves, he saw a little snake twisting between his wrists, and the snake's body had turned bright red.

Xie Jiu was startled and hurriedly shouted out the door, "Please doctor, hurry."
