After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

Chapter 239 Which way of death do you choose?

Grand Tutor Tong was an old minister who had served in two dynasties. He was a very shrewd man. With just a quick glance, he knew that the young emperor and Gu Nanxi had reached an agreement.

The look in Grand Tutor Tong's eyes as he looked at the young emperor was as dark as the abyss, and he was chilled all over.

The young emperor felt as if a thorn was on his back and got goose bumps all over his body. He pretended to look at the corn seeds in the pottery jar, but in fact he did not dare to look at Master Tong in the eye.

The young emperor's heart was beating like a drum, and it was beating so violently that it almost jumped out of his throat.

Between Grand Tutor Tong and Gu Nanxi, the young emperor clearly stood on Gu Nanxi's side this time. Even if he used corn seeds as an excuse, who couldn't see his bias?

"What's true cannot be false, and what's false cannot be true. When it comes to the foundation of the Great Zhou, we can never be too careful." After saying this, Grand Tutor Tong turned around and left without even saying hello.

The young emperor's smile froze on his face. What Master Tong meant by this was that they had found some evidence against him.

The young emperor looked into the distance through the wide-open palace door, hoping that his elder sister and the others would move faster...

In the mansion of Marquis Yongchang, Marquis Yongchang, who had been knocked unconscious, slowly woke up. As soon as he woke up, he found himself tied up and locked in his bedroom.

The memories before he fainted flooded into his mind. Marquis Yongchang knew that his conspiracy had been exposed and he had fallen into the hands of that vicious woman Gu Nanxi!

No, I can't just sit there and wait for death!

Marquis Yongchang wanted to break the rope, but he didn't expect that the rope, which looked only as thick as a finger, was very tough.

Even though the Marquis of Yongchang was extremely strong, he was unable to break it even if he used all his strength.

Marquis Yongchang turned his gaze to the rope and his pupils suddenly shrank.

This rope!

Isn’t this rope commonly used by Gu Shisan’s brothers?

Back then, I had praised their rope for being strong and durable, and it could be used to catch enemies from the North with ease!

But why did their ropes appear on their bodies? !

Yongchang Hou couldn't believe it and thought of a guess. Could it be that Gu Shisan and the others had already surrendered to Gu Nanxi? !

But the time they have spent in contact is so short, and Gu Shisan's family is still at the border. What benefit is there for them to turn to Gu Nanxi?

Marquis Yongchang felt that his head was a mess and his head was splitting with pain, as if he was in a fog, and countless wild beasts were hiding in the dark, staring at him.

"I am the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion! I want to see my son now. Why don't you let me in?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice of Marquis Yongchang was heard from outside the door.

Yongchang Hou immediately ignited a glimmer of hope and shouted, "Mother! Mother, please let me out! This vicious woman Gu Nanxi is definitely trying to murder my husband!"

The old lady outside the door was also very anxious.

She had a bad relationship with Gu Nanxi to begin with, and the reason she dared to act like an old lady was because she relied on her own son.

If anything happened to his son, wouldn't he be at the mercy of Gu Nanxi?! How would he feel about living like that?!

As for the rebellion she heard about that day, the old lady had long since let it go. She was the mother of Marquis Yongchang, and her fate had long been tied to that of the Yongchang Monkey.

Gu Sanshijiu drew out his sword and placed it across the doorway, his tone cold and expressionless: "If you want to go in, ask this sword of mine first."

This sword has a slender blade and a simple tassel hanging on the hilt. It looks ordinary, but it has a cold glow.

The old lady could even smell a hint of blood and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Aunt Duan didn't agree with the old lady coming here to make trouble, so she gently advised: "Old lady, the Marquis and the lady have been together for more than ten years. The lady is not such a heartless person. Let's wait a little longer."

Aunt Duan was anxious and regretted her decision. If she had known that Marquis Yongchang was such an ambitious man, she would not have gone to the mansion to study. Now she had to think of a way to get out of this situation.

Yongchang Hou, who heard the conversation between the two, was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "Mother, Gu Nanxi can throw me in jail for several months. What else can she not do? Now, rescuing me is the most important thing!"

"My son, my poor son, how can I save you?"

This question obviously stumped Marquis Yongchang.

Everyone in this mansion follows Gu Nanxi's lead. His army in the suburbs of Beijing had already returned to the border. The only ones he could rely on were his own guards.

But there has been no movement at the moment. Either Gu Nanxi has kept the news secret very well, or this group of guards have also defected to Gu Nanxing.

No matter which possibility it is, this situation is extremely unfavorable to me!

The ominous premonition in Yongchang Hou's heart became stronger and stronger.

Before Yongchang Hou could come up with a countermeasure, Gu Nanxi's cold voice came from outside the door: "Come here, send the old lady Duan Yi Niang back to the courtyard. The Marquis is seriously ill, and they want to pray for the Marquis."

After saying this, Gu Nanxi pushed open the door and walked in, followed by two beardless men wearing the uniforms of imperial eunuchs.

Gu Sanshijiu also followed in and found a corner to stand in. His eyes were like a falcon, taking in everything in the room.

"Gu Nanxi! You and I are one family, please let me out. I can pretend that what happened today never happened!"

Marquis Yongchang said in a dark and restrained tone.

Gu Nanxi spoke only after seeing that the area nearby had been cleared and there were only five people at the scene, including himself.

"You have committed a serious crime that warrants the execution of nine generations of your clan, yet you still refuse to repent."

Yongchang Hou's eyes sparkled, and he refused to admit it: "Don't slander me out of thin air."

Gu Nanxi was too lazy to argue with him: "For so many years, you have not contributed a penny to the Marquis' Mansion. I thought you were poor and your salary could only support two concubines. I never thought that you could find a way to make a lot of money in the border area."

Gu Nanxi sighed endlessly. Don't judge a book by its cover, and don't measure the depth of the sea. This foolish Marquis Yongchang actually had the ambition to conquer the Central Plains.

When Marquis Yongchang saw Gu Nanxi's determined expression, he knew that no matter how eloquent he was, Gu Nanxi would not be shaken, so he softened his voice.

"Madam, it takes a hundred years to be able to ride the same boat together, and a thousand years to sleep on the same pillow together. You and I have been married for more than ten years, and we have two sons and a daughter. Xuanming just passed the examination for the scholar, how can you waste his talent as the top scholar? And Yunting was arranged by you to go to Hangzhou. Once the shipyard is built, the emperor will not shorten his future."

"Yunyan is a beautiful girl who can make money. Seeing that a girl like her is popular among many families, her lifelong affairs should also be put on the agenda."

"Can you bear to ruin the future of your children?"

Gu Nanxi shook her head: "Of course I can't bear it."

Yongchang Hou was overjoyed, his voice full of temptation: "As long as you turn a blind eye, when I accomplish my great cause, you will be the phoenix in the sky, and Yunyan will be..."

In front of the eunuchs, Gu Nanxi didn't dare let Marquis Yongchang continue speaking.

When those words reached the young emperor's ears, it was like planting a thorn in his heart, which might hurt him at any time.

"So for the sake of our relationship, I'll give you a choice. How do you plan to die?"
