The fast travel is too late

Chapter 208 General Xu Baitou (13)

Gu Xun is a child of the Gu family in the royal capital. The Gu family lives in Yong'an Lane, but Gu Xun doesn't live there. His house was bestowed by the Holy One, and it is adjacent to a group of princes and princes.

There are no stone carvings at the door, and the dark brown wooden door is closed tightly. The copper ring on the door is in the shape of a copper lion. When you knock it with your hands, it will make a dull sound, which is a bit different.

Xin Yi was brought in through the main entrance. Along the way, he saw many decorations in the house, all of which did not violate the regulations, and some places were even modified to avoid violations. It can be seen that the owner of the house is a person who abides by the rules. Man, at least that's what he showed on the surface.

Gu Xun was waiting for Xin Yi's arrival in the study. The military book he held in his hand had not been turned over for a long time. He was not familiar with Xin Yi, and there were not many things that would make Xin Yi come to his door. He could guess it just by thinking about the rumors outside. Why did he come to Xinyi? But he couldn't find a reason to explain it.

"Master Gu, I don't need to tell you. You should already know what I am doing. There were three people who left the plum garden that day. The girl from Ji's family is your cousin and the future wife of the old man's son. She is the granddaughter of the emperor's teacher, and the rumors outside will not say anything about them, but my family's Ah Wu is not so lucky. My father is just a small servant of the military department, and my elder brother is also useless. The rumors don't hurt her. Who are you going to!"

Xin Yi didn't need to be greeted by anyone, and sat on the chair in front of the desk by himself, looking at Gu Xun coldly.

Sure enough it was for this.

Gu Xun put down the book and wanted to say something, but his heart suddenly moved. Xin Yi said this. Are the rumors outside really unbearable?

Has Xin Wu heard of those rumors?

Thinking that Xin Wu would be troubled by rumors from the outside world, Gu Xun felt depressed, like a treasure being forced to dust, a picture scroll stained with ink that shouldn't be there, or the depression caused by someone destroying a beautiful thing.

He wanted to ask about Xin Wu's current situation, but he didn't know what identity he should use to ask. He was the one who caused Xin Wu's current situation, wasn't he?

How could that girl need his fake mercy?
"I'm sorry." In the end, Gu Xun could only say this.

Seeing that Gu Xun really felt guilty, Xin Yi couldn't help but feel confused about what happened in Meiyuan. What actually happened, he had to cover it up with rumors, even at the expense of ruining his sister's reputation.

"What happened in the plum garden? As Xin Wu's brother, I feel that I am still qualified to demand to know the cause and effect." Xin Yi negotiated with Gu Xun.

There were many verbal confrontations between the two, one was for the sake of the younger sister, the other was for responsibility, but they also had unspeakable concerns for Xin Wu. In the end, Xin Yi found out the mistakes and omissions in Gu Xun's words, and finally forced Gu Xun Xun told the truth.

Everyone knows that Princess Changping had two daughters and one son, and the youngest son was given a national surname, named Situ Zhen. However, he died before the age of dancing spoons.

However, what is unknown is that this young master has actually survived in the world, but he is physically ill and cannot appear in front of the world normally.

He always goes crazy for no reason. When he is crazy, no one knows what he will do. Sometimes he thinks he is a dog, and he will bark loudly when he sees people he doesn't know. do not remember.Most of the time he is quiet, and this kind of quietness has a premise that there is no other person in his line of sight.

Gu Xun and Situ You were close friends when they were young, and he knew more inside stories than others who didn't know the truth.

For example, Situ Zhen's madness was not born like this, but was caused by someone else's plot.

The former crown prince was extremely talented and had the talent to become a famous emperor through the ages. However, he was born weak and sickly. He even became seriously ill on the eve of the emperor's intention to pass the throne to him. The crown prince listened to the slander and thought that there was a destiny in the world. The method of exchanging lives actually wanted to exchange the life of an innocent person for the longevity of the former prince.

And the person they chose was Situ Zhen.

No one knows what Situ Zhen went through during the half month he was missing.

At that time, Gu Xun was still young, and the queen was his aunt, so he often went to and from the palace when he was young. He got lost in the palace and found Situ Zhen in a dry well in the palace. .

When Gu Xun found someone to rescue Situ You from the well, Situ Zhen still retained some sanity at that time and could clearly explain how he was trapped in the palace garden, as well as the plot of the crown prince and the traitor. Make it crystal clear.

His change came after he returned to the princess mansion.

Afraid of the dark, afraid of meeting strangers, not fond of cooked food, just want to shrink in the corner and put on a defensive posture.Princess Changping called a doctor to treat him. He was fine at first, but there was an accident on the way. The doctor the princess called was a brother of the person who conspired with the princess. He was fine. The problem was brought by him. Little apprentice, that person is the younger brother of the person who conspired with the princess, he poisoned Situ You's daily drinking medicine, which made Situ Zhen end up with no cure.

"People in the world thought that he died of illness, but in fact he was imprisoned in Huanzhen Garden in the plum garden. Originally, there should be a princess guarding outside Huanzhen Garden, but for some reason, the guards disappeared that day, so that the three of them Arriving near the Huanzhen Garden as if entering no one's land, and because the silver bell in the Yanjia girl's sachet had been soaked in an unknown spice, it was a bell that could make Situ Zhen go crazy, so Yan The girl in the family was injured by him, and after they left the plum garden, they could only let the rumors spread, after all, the things about Situ Zhen should not be known by the world."

Gu Xun stopped talking after explaining the cause and effect.

Xin Yi didn't expect that the matter in the plum garden would also involve the royal family. If it was related to the former crown princess, it might be related to the death of the former crown prince, so it really cannot be said.

"But even if you want to attract attention, you don't have to let people spread the rumors so badly. You can find any other reasons. It doesn't even matter if you let Xin Wu and the others stay in the banquet. .”

"Don't say that Yan Hui is injured, just change her into a high-necked dress, or find her a scarf to cover the wound on her neck. You just think they are girls, don't understand Only by prioritizing things can they be deceived, and they want to use them to divert the attention of outsiders.

Listening to what happened, I can tell that Ah Wu and the girl from Ji's family suffered from an innocent disaster. The murderer behind the scenes wanted to deal with Yan Hui, and the tool he used was Situ Zhen, whom you have always cared about. If you really want to To continue hiding Situ Zhen's existence, what you should do is not to spread rumors outside, but to find the murderer behind the murder of Yan Hui, and he must be the one who knows that Situ Zhen is still alive.

He is the one who is most likely to publicize Situ Zhen's existence, not my Ah Wu. "

Xin Yi spoke fiercely, as if he would punch Gu Xun in the next moment.
