Reborn Bastard Supreme

Chapter 173 What is the cause of death

The voices in the room stopped for a moment, as if a little surprised that something came from the main courtyard: "What's the matter?"

The mother didn't hesitate when she heard the words, her face showed a bit of sadness, and her voice became lower and lower: "The third master is gone. The Tai Furen just fainted because of this matter, and now she has just been awakened by the imperial doctor. The prince ordered us to come and tell Ladies and gentlemen, let all young masters and madams go to the main courtyard immediately."

The room was quiet for a moment, then sighed, Gu Zhisu's voice was low and hoarse, as if a little sad, and he replied after a while: "I see, thank you, ma'am."

When the voice fell, the nun bowed again, led the maidservants away from the Rongli Courtyard, and watched them leave. Just as she was about to go up the steps, she heard a soft knock on the carved door, Gu Zhisu said: Dressed in a plain white gown with faint patterns of green bamboo on it, he walked slowly out with deep eyes, glanced at him and said in a low voice.

"Since the matter has been brought to light, we should go to the main courtyard now."

When Lianzhu heard this, she lowered her body and responded, "Yes, young master."

"Third uncle is gone? Why is it so sudden?"

In the Linjiang Courtyard, Gu Haichao had just sat down in the room, and before he picked up the teacup, he heard the news of Gu Wenying's death from the main courtyard, his complexion changed immediately and he stood up, staring at Xin Shi in disbelief With a glance, he murmured in a low voice.

"Father was busy going to the main courtyard just now, so he just found out about this, do you want to tell grandma?"

After listening to his words, Xin put down the teacup lightly in her hand. After watching the mother who reported the letter go away, she waved her sleeves to make the many maids in the room retreat, straightened up and walked a few steps towards the outside , the slender figure reflected in the light in front of the window became more and more narrow and elongated, and the gloomy light flickered in his eyes.

"There is something wrong with this—before the spring banquet, the third brother disappeared in the mansion. At that time, the prince said that the third brother was doing business, so I didn't think about anything else. But now, after a few days, the third brother suddenly disappeared. This is too strange."

When Gu Haichao heard what Xin said, he nodded in agreement and said, "What my mother said is exactly what I want to say."

The two were silent for a long time without speaking, until a timid voice sounded from the corner of the room.

"Mother..., the moment Gu Haichao heard this voice, his complexion changed slightly and he looked towards the corner. When he saw Gu Haitang standing in the corner, he didn't leave with the maids just now, but just stood there quietly. Here, uncontrollable anger flashed in his eyes, and when he was about to reprimand, Xin, who knew that his son was already impatient with his daughter, spoke first with his eyes flickering.

"Haitang, it's none of your business here, you can go back to the house first."

Gu Haitang's expression was full of timidity, such a look on her face, there was a strange sense of strangeness, which made Xin feel a little distressed, after all, she was her own daughter raised by herself, although Gu Haitang did many things wrong, But Xin didn't want to erase the affection between mother and daughter, so she treated Gu Haitang more gently and refused to let Gu Haichao do anything to Gu Haitang.

Gu Haitang didn't notice this difference, but after hearing Xin's words, he slowly lowered his head and blinked his eyes, showing a bit more pitiful: "But mother, third uncle..."

Gu Haichao waved his hand impatiently, signaling that she doesn't need to say anything: "Third Uncle doesn't need you to go and see, you just need to stay well and don't cause us any trouble."

Gu Haitang was driven away by him like this, tears welled up in his eyes, his fingers pinched his palm tightly, but he didn't dare to resist Gu Haichao's words, so he could only bow down aggrievedly: "I see, brother .”

Xin watched Gu Haitang's figure go out, but she didn't say what she wanted to say after all. After the footsteps gradually faded away, she glanced at Gu Haichao and said slightly reproachfully: "Why are you being so fierce to her? Be careful. She hates you."

Gu Hai glanced at Xin Shi, lowered his body and sat down again, picked up the tea with the lid down, his lips and brows were full of contempt, but his tone was much lower than before: "It doesn't matter if you hate me, Anyway, she has already made up her mind, so mother hasn't made up her mind yet?"

When Xin thought of what he had said to her before, she was frightened for a while, lest he could not bear Gu Haitang's appearance, so she made a move without telling herself. After a moment of hesitation, she tentatively asked: "Now your third uncle just now? Now, your father probably doesn't feel well either, can it be that you can't bear it for a while?"

When Gu Haichao heard her words, he lightly let go of his finger, and let the teacup fall down, making a crisp sound, his eyes turned thoughtfully, and landed on Xin's body, his smile was full of hostility : "Mother, it's not that I can't help it, but that you agree with it."

"Since you've seen it, I'll make it clear today." Xin looked into his murderous eyes, afraid that he would attack Gu Haitang for his own official career without knowing it. Gripping the handkerchief in his sleeve tightly and staring at him, he said word by word, "You can let Gu Haitang die as a person, but I want my daughter to live."

"So that's what my mother thought."

In fact, Gu Haichao has already thought about how to let Gu Haitang die smoothly, but because Xin is the eldest princess after all, and his biological mother is not easy to disobey. Xin Shi will not let it go, now that she has Xin's promise, she is relieved, nodded and agreed to her without thinking.

"That's fine, I don't want to make a move at all, and kill my own sister... After this incident, there is no need to tell Haitang, I will be ready, mother can rest assured."

Seeing that he was going to use the substitute method, Xin let out a sigh of relief. She believed that Gu Haichao had his own sense of propriety, so she didn't say anything else. She sat next to him and refilled his tea, not forgetting the last order. One sentence: "Remember to keep the people around her secret, otherwise she won't give up easily when she finds out, and she will definitely sue in front of the lord—don't you know her temperament? When the time comes, it won't end, don't blame me for not reminding her .”

Gu Haichao listened to Xin's instructions to himself, not to let himself be a substitute in secret, and let Gu Haitang know the whole story. He understood Xin's concerns, and was worried that once Gu Haitang found out, he would probably be unwilling to give up the identity of the eldest daughter of the Gu family. At that time, Mrs. Gu will be turned upside down by her again, and the method of letting her die in suspended animation will not work.

"曰 m-cv" The two of them discussed in the Linjiang courtyard for a while, changed their clothes and went to the main courtyard. They happened to meet the second room who also came, and after a few words of greeting, they entered the main courtyard together. As expected Hearing a burst of crying, the voice came from the mouth of the third wife, Qian Shi, behind her were kneeling Gu Haili and Gu Haiyi, both sobbing softly with red eye circles, looking gloomy and gloomy in the room.

Seeing this, Xin and Gu Haichao quickly looked at each other, then lowered their heads and quietly walked behind Gu Wenmian who was standing beside the bed with a gloomy expression, thinking about something. Behind the screen, she rubbed her eyes vigorously and pretended to be extremely sad. Meng Shi was supported by her sister-in-law to stop at the table, while Gu Wenmin walked up to Gu Wenmian, and first took a look at the lying on the bed covered by the curtain. Mrs. Tai, who couldn't see the situation clearly on the couch, approached Gu Wenmian and asked in a low voice.

"Brother, what is going on?"

Gu Wenmian suddenly heard Gu Wenmin's question, and the gloomy expression on his face remained unchanged. He turned to look at him, his eyes were strange and dark, and his expression was obviously ugly because of this matter: "Don't you all already know the matter? Are you done? What else do you ask?"

Seeing that he was unwilling to say anything more, Gu Wenmin couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He only just found out that his younger brother was dead. The specific reason and the fact that he didn't know anything beforehand. Looking at Gu Wenmian's gloomy face now, he still couldn't bear his curiosity and forced himself to Scalp lowered his voice and asked: "Of course we know about the third brother, but the key is the cause of the third brother's death, we don't even know."

As soon as he said this, the room was almost silent, not only the Xin family and the Meng family looked over at the same time, but the Qian family also stopped crying, raised his head with red eyes, and finally asked with sobs: "Yes, brother, What the hell is going on! Why did my third master, my third master just disappear like this!"

Gu Wenmian guessed that Gu Wenmin couldn't hold back the question, and Qian would definitely hit the snake with a stick, but he Yihao didn't know how to say what happened to Gu Wenying's death, and sighed knowing that he couldn't get around it. , lowered his head to help Qian Shi and said in a low voice: "Third siblings, don't worry, this matter... this matter is a long story."

Hearing what he said, and seeing his embarrassed expression at the moment, Qian knew that Gu Wenying's death was definitely not as simple as it seemed. She also saw Gu Wenying's body just now, and she only felt the expression on Gu Wenying's face when he died. It's strange, it doesn't look like he died in an accident, it's more like he was killed by someone's design, with a smile on his face like that - he died because of sex.

Just when Qian's heart was full of confusion, as well as uncontrollable grief and anger about Gu Wenying's death, deep in the heavy curtains on the couch, suddenly there was an old and weak person who seemed to be broken at any time: "Old man!" Third daughter-in-law, come in."

As soon as Gu Zhisu walked down to the screen, he heard Mrs. Tai's voice from inside. The two second-bedroom concubines who came with him shrank their heads timidly, and did not dare to come forward to do it. What, lowered the voice to discuss a few words, then avoided Gu Zhisu who was at the side, walked to the corner beside the screen, and stood quietly like a maidservant.

Gu Zhisu glanced at them lightly. Although he didn't stand in the corner like them, he didn't let go of the screen at this time. Instead, he walked to the other side and raised his eyes slightly, looking at the people standing in front of the screen. go.
