marriage contract

"Huh?" Chu Junyi was very puzzled, looking at them with puzzled eyes.

"I just asked you if you did this?!" Elder Gu was very annoyed.

Uncle Gu tugged on Uncle Gu's sleeve, trying to make him not be so impulsive.

Uncle Gu shook off Uncle Gu's hand, his eyes still fixed on Chu Junyi.

Chu Junyi frowned, ignored Mr. Gu, just looked at Mr. Gu and asked, "But what happened?"

Seeing his question, Uncle Gu nodded and replied: "Grandmother was frightened last night, she is not feeling well."

"Is it serious?" Chu Junyi's expression didn't change, he was really not familiar with Mrs. Gu, it would be strange if he got angry at this moment.

"The imperial doctor said it was a stroke." Uncle Gu replied.

"Have you had a stroke?" Chu Junyi's face was a little dignified, he thought for a while and said, "Do you want me to ask for medicine?"

Yu Ji went home and got married. There are not many people in the capital who can contact him. The only people who have a relationship with the Gu family and who can contact Yu Ji are Gu Chengzhi and Chu Junyi. Now that Gu Chengzhi is not in the capital, find Chu It makes sense for Jun Yi to help ask for medicine.

Mr. Gu, who was ignored, was so angry that he just wanted to slap the table and curse.

But Mr. Gu had been prepared for a long time, he stopped Mr. Gu's rude behavior one step in advance, turned his head to Chu Junyi and said, "Mr. Yu has been away from Beijing for a long time, and we don't know where to find him. My father is worried. Grandmother is ill, and there are a lot of impolite words in her words, I hope Sixth Master Chu will forgive me."

Chu Junyi shook his head and said he didn't care, he always knew the virtues of Mr. Gu, and it would be really stupid to be serious with him.

Then Uncle Gu asked the servant to take him to the front study, while he stayed to talk to Uncle Gu.

Uncle Gu couldn't vent his anger, and he was almost suffocated now. When Chu Junyi left, he immediately opened fire on Uncle Gu.

Uncle Gu calmly let his father scold people. If a few years ago, he would have worried about Mr. Gu swinging a stick to greet him. In the past two years, Mr. Gu's health has been getting worse, and he probably has almost lost the strength to beat people with a stick. , being scolded for a few words doesn't hurt or itch, so let him do it.

When Mr. Gu scolded dryly, Mr. Gu said lightly: "Ask him directly if they did this, how do you think he will answer? Say 'no', do you believe it? Say 'yes', Do you think he's that stupid?"

Uncle Gu choked for a moment, and gave Uncle Gu a fierce look.

"You rest here, I'll go meet sixth master Chu." Uncle Gu turned and left after speaking.

Uncle Gu stared at Uncle Gu's back, but he didn't have the energy to pursue other matters.

Chu Junyi and Uncle Gu met in the study, the doors and windows were all opened, and they sat down to talk after making sure that no one would eavesdrop.

Uncle Gu first apologized to Chu Junyi, not only because of Uncle Gu's rudeness, but also to trouble him this time.

The relationship between Chu Junyi and the Gu family is embarrassing. In name, he is the uncle of the Gu family, but Gu Chengzhi is not a woman, so this "uncle" cannot hold water.Furthermore, Mr. Gu is the uncle in the next room. It is really inappropriate to talk to Chu Junyi in that tone, so I thank you.

Chu Junyi waved his hand to show that he didn't care. He ignored Mr. Gu's words and really couldn't explain it to him.

However, Chu Junyi was still a little unclear about Mrs. Gu's stroke, so he took the opportunity to ask why.

"You don't know?" Uncle Gu was very surprised. This matter was related to Gu Chengzhi, so he definitely didn't run away. According to his thinking, it was probably Gu Chengzhi's idea, and Chu Junyi stayed in the capital to do it.

"Should I know?" Chu Junyi looked at him with clear eyes. He knew that Gu Chengzhi had acted, but he didn't know why, but looking at Uncle Gu's expression, the matter should be quite serious.

Uncle Gu's eyes were complicated, he stared at him for a while, making sure that he really didn't know, and then told him what happened in the morning.

Chu Junyi was stunned, and at the same time, he was overwhelmed with admiration. How could he come up with such a method? !

"Wait! You just said that the old lady..." Chu Junyi paused before saying, "Have you had a stroke?"

"Yes, I was scared." Uncle Gu replied straightforwardly, and then focused on describing the tragedy of the screaming in the morning.

Chu Junyi: "..."

When the second Mrs. Gu passed away, all the maids and women who served by Mrs. Gu were hanged in Mrs. Gu's room... Fortunately, he could figure it out.

If Gu Chengzhi didn't want to do something directly to Mrs. Gu, he would hang all the servants who were related to Mrs. Gu at that time, and then use these corpses to scare Mrs. Gu.

Seeing Uncle Gu's calm face, Chu Junyi sighed.

No matter how deep the relationship is, it can't stop someone from squandering their lives. During this time, he has been watching what happened in Beijing in the past few years, and he knows the situation of the Gu family very well.

Aunt Qiu was finally ordered to be beaten to death by Mrs. Gu, at least Mr. Gu thought so, and Aunt Qiu herself had been sent away from the capital, married a businessman and became the wife of the family, and there were two other children under the age of three. My son, with Aunt Qiu's scheming methods, life will not be too bad.

Because Mrs. Gu killed his true love, Mrs. Gu had a deep conflict between mother and son, but Mrs. Gu treated Aunt Qiu very kindly, and the relationship between the couple improved a lot.

Although the battle between the mother and son made Gu's family feel uneasy, Mr. Gu really didn't have the energy to go out for a stroll. People outside hadn't seen Mr. Gu for a long time.

As the person affected by the mother-child war, Uncle Gu has already annoyed these two people to death, just look at his calm expression at this moment.

"What's your plan?" Chu Junyi looked at him and asked.

Uncle Gu raised his eyelids, and said: "This servant has done something wrong, and I know that I am sorry for the master, so I apologize with death."

Chu Junyi: "..." Sure enough, don't offend anyone if you offend him...

"My father just thinks too much. There are not many servants who steal and play tricks. It's just that the servants in our family are loyal and can't tolerate their own mistakes." Uncle Gu sighed.

Chu Junyi twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a smirk: "Sure enough, he is a loyal servant."

Uncle Gu nodded seriously.

The two sides decided on a statement and each had a cup of tea.

In fact, Uncle Gu just wanted to know if Gu Chengzhi did this, if so, then he would not pursue it further; if not, then he must find out who did it.

Gu Chengzhi has always kept his promises when he spoke. If he said he would not do anything to other members of the Gu family, then he would not, but if he did not do this, for the sake of the safety of the Gu family, Uncle Gu must catch the person who did it.

Who doesn't want a father to be kind and son to be filial, grandparents and grandchildren to be happy, but this is an extravagant hope in the Gu family.

In the past few years, if it wasn't for Aunt Qiu's help blowing the pillow wind, Mr. Gu would have tossed the entire Gu family into it.

Elder Master Gu is the head of the patriarch, so he feels good about himself. In the past, Elder Gu Ge and Second Master Gu suppressed him, so he acted fairly reliably, but now that everyone who can restrain him has passed away, he feels that he is the boss, and everything You should listen to him, everything he does is right.

Mrs. Gu is also a person with a strong desire to control. Mrs. Gu's way of thinking was taught by Mrs. Gu. If you want to meddle in family affairs, you also need to meddle in outside affairs. In the past few years, Mrs. Gu has been stuck Otherwise, she would not be worse than Mr. Gu.

During the conversation, Chu Junyi's guards ran back and forth, took the medicine bottle handed over by the guards, and Chu Junyi handed it to Uncle Gu.

"This is?" Uncle Gu took the medicine bottle and asked in doubt.

"It's the medicine made by Yu Ji. It's used for hanging people's lives. You use it for the old lady first. When I get back, I'll write to Yu Ji to see if I can get the medicine for stroke." Chu Junyi mentioned it again after finishing speaking. Some taboos of this medicine.

There is also a bottle of this medicine in Gu Chengzhi's hand. It was specially asked for when he saw Yu Ji that time. At the old lady's age, a room full of dead bodies can directly scare her to death, but it's thanks to the stroke. This bottle of medicine.

"Thank you." Uncle Gu accepted the medicine bottle.

Chu Junyi shook his head and said, "I don't want anything to happen to the old lady either."

Uncle Gu knew he was telling the truth, because Mrs. Gu passed away, and Gu Chengzhi, as a grandson, had to observe filial piety for nine months.

The situation in Beijing was tense, and the absence of nine months would have too much impact on Gu Chengzhi, so he believed that the medicine given to him by Chu Junyi could save the old lady Gu's life.

Before leaving Gu's house, Chu Junyi went to visit Mrs. Gu, and it happened that Mrs. Gu lost control, so he and Uncle Gu quickly retreated.

Thinking of the distorted face of Mrs. Gu just now, Chu Junyi sighed. Perhaps this is what Gu Chengzhi wanted.

After sending Chu Junyi away, Uncle Gu went directly to Mrs. Gu. Now that he knew who was responsible for this, it was time to prepare for the follow-up matters.

Just like what Uncle Gu said before, every family has servants who steal, rape and play tricks. They gathered the evidence collected, then went to appease the family members of the servants who died, and finally went to Master Gu with their things.

When he entered the door, he saw Uncle Gu stuffing a pill into his mouth. Uncle Gu's eyes moved slightly, but he pretended not to see it.

In the past few years, apart from being infatuated with Aunt Qiu, Mr. Gu has also become obsessed with alchemy. At first, he asked someone to help him refine it. When he had a disagreement with the Taoist priest, he made all the alchemy by himself, and his body began to gradually fade away. worse.

Uncle Gu didn't know what Uncle Gu was thinking, so when he saw him coming in, he hurriedly asked.

Uncle Gu answered bluntly, Chu Junyi must not have known about this matter, so it is impossible to hide Chu Junyi's ideas from him.

Although Mr. Gu was very disgusted that his son was pressing on him, he still trusted Mr. Gu. Thinking about Chu Junyi's reaction just now, he also felt that Chu Junyi didn't know.

But if Chu Junyi didn't know, he didn't know, Gu Chengzhi must have done this.

Uncle Gu watched with cold eyes, and told Uncle Gu the evidence collected and the prepared statement.

Uncle Gu was very flustered. It should be said that he had been afraid since he saw the room full of corpses. After receiving Uncle Gu's seemingly reasonable explanation, he wanted to believe it but couldn't believe it.

"If you want to hang yourself, don't you hang yourself in your own room?! Why did you go to the old lady's room to hang yourself?!" Master Gu growled, "And how did they hang themselves?! How did they not step on a chair? Hang yourself up?!"

He always remembered the scene he saw in the morning, pairs of feet dangling back and forth in the door, but there was not even a chair on the ground.

Uncle Gu chuckled, and took out the lottery that Old Madam Gu asked for.

Mr. Gu was very annoyed by his chuckle, he saw the contents of the signature before cursing, and was scared to death.

Uncle Gu picked up the lottery that Uncle Gu threw on the ground, and asked in a low voice, "Father still thinks it was done by the third brother?"

Mr. Gu's eyes were fixed on the stick, and he shook his head again and again. He had already heard about who was hanged, and he also remembered that yesterday was the anniversary of the death of Mrs. Gu. Seeing the content on the sign, he wanted to Scary rhythm.

"This matter has nothing to do with the third brother. It's just a loyal servant who felt sorry for the master. That's why today's matter happened." Uncle Gu asked softly, "Father, do you think I'm right?"

Mr. Gu just wanted to nod, when he suddenly realized what he was talking about, he raised his head and glared at him, and gritted his teeth in a low voice: "Do you think she can let you go?! Today is the old lady, tomorrow it may be you!"

The mother-child friendship between him and Mrs. Gu had dissipated as early as Aunt Qiu's death, and what he was worried about was never Mrs. Gu's illness.

If Gu Chengzhi can attack Old Madam Gu, it will be his turn next.

The matter of killing Second Mrs. Gu was discussed by him and Mrs. Gu, and even Mrs. Gu and Uncle Gu didn't tell, fearing that they would object and leak the news.

There is no difference between Gu Chengzhi's hand and Gu's second wife's hand, anyway, the purpose is revenge.

A flash of sarcasm flashed in Uncle Gu's eyes, but he still comforted him: "You think too much, how could someone as kind as Second Aunt do anything to her family, the one who died was just the servant who did it to her back then, who murdered her master, death is not enough pity."

"The old lady has had a stroke!" Mr. Gu was afraid that he would wake up the next day, and his room would be covered with dead bodies.

"That's because grandma is getting old, and you know... that matter must have hurt my second aunt's heart, and it has nothing to do with you." Uncle Gu continued to comfort.

"That's right, it has nothing to do with me." Mr. Gu seemed to have grasped at straws, and kept saying, "This matter has nothing to do with me. So how can a kind person do something to an innocent person, right?!"

Seeing him look up, Uncle Gu replied with a smile: "Yes, what you said is correct."

After getting Uncle Gu's answer, Elder Gu also relaxed, waved his hands and said, "Okay, since you're fine, go and do what you should do."

"Then what happened today?" Uncle Gu asked.

"According to what you say." Elder Gu also thinks that the loyalty of servants sounds better than the ghost's death. Anyway, Uncle Gu has the ability to settle the matter, just leave the matter to him.

Uncle Gu complied, and when he walked out of the room, there was still a hint of sarcasm on his face, he still had the potential to be a courtier.

There was Uncle Gu sitting on the other side of the Gu family, Chu Junyi was not very worried, anyway, there was no news outside in the next few days.

However, fire cannot be contained in paper, and sooner or later this matter will spread.

Chu Junyi doesn't necessarily like Uncle Gu very much, he can't play with this kind of person, but Uncle Gu and Gu Chengzhi have the same interests, so there is no need to worry about him turning against him.

Because Uncle Gu's mind is clear, Gu Chengzhi must be more trusted than the two brain-dead members in his family.

The relationship between Gu Chengzhi and the Gu family is already like this, but the next generation is still there, even for the sake of the child, he won't get into too much trouble with the Gu family.

The best official career of the Gu family is Gu Chengzhi. Uncle Gu can't get help in his career, but his son can. Gu Chengzhi doesn't want the Gu family to completely decline, so he will definitely help his nephew.

Just a few days before Gu Chengzhi returned to Beijing, Chu Junyi got the news that someone wrote a note to impeach Gu Chengzhi.

Chu Junyi didn't know much about Gu Chengzhi's plan, so he didn't know what his next step was. Take it easy.

Sure enough, before Gu Chengzhi came back, the papers of impeachment were handed over to the imperial court, but the emperor stayed and did not issue them, and only said to wait for Gu Chengzhi to come back.

Two days later, when Gu Chengzhi led the team back to the capital, the accusations of impeachment came like snowflakes.
