After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

A common problem among smart people in the world is that they tend to think too much.

A jade mirror hangs beside the Jade Tower, and an ice plate is hung outside the pearl curtain.

In the pavilion in the middle of the lake, people were having fun while gathering in groups of three or four to chat or gossip, it was so pleasant.

"The wind comes from the sky, blowing gently on my arms." A handsome man leaned against the railing, opened his arms, and felt the slightly moist breeze.

"Fine grape wine in a luminescent cup. Brother Xiahou, would you like a glass?"

A luminous wine glass was handed to Xiahou, exuding a strong aroma of wine.

Xiahou took the wine glass and took a sip: "Your wine is very authentic. Did you buy it from the Dashi Style Street?"

"It was given by Munir. His caravan is getting bigger and bigger, so he wanted to help us. I told him he was worshipping the wrong temple. It's no use asking me for this, I have to ask Brother Xiahou."

Xia Hou drank the wine in one gulp: "He has a good relationship with Gu Nanxi, why doesn't he ask her for help?"

"Brother Xiahou, you are joking. No matter how capable Gu Nanxi is, he is limited to this small piece of land in Kyoto. How can he manage the border?"

Xiahou looked at the people around him with a half-smile: "What benefit did he give you that made you speak for him like this?"

"Hehe, the one who understands me is Brother Xiahou. To die under the peony flowers is to be a romantic ghost! That Arab woman is really different."

Xiahou's eyes narrowed slightly. The words they just said were like a flash of inspiration that broke through some barriers.

He couldn't understand why Gu Nanxi would attack Marquis Yongchang.

Colleagues all said that Gu Nanxi was going to frame Marquis Yongchang after getting the news, so he took the initiative and left Marquis Yongchang dead without any evidence!

However, Xiahou felt that Gu Nanxi was not such a person. Since she knew that Yongchang Hou was innocent, she would never wrongly accuse an innocent person. With Gu Nanxi's temper, she would try her best to clear herself of the charges and even set a trap for him.

Xiahou asked softly, "Will Yongchang Marquis really rebel, or collaborate with the enemy and commit treason?"

After asking this question, I heard the people around me laughing.

"How is that possible? Even if the Marquis of Yongchang had eight more guts, he would never rebel! What basis does he have to rebel? He has no soldiers and no money!"

His laughter attracted other colleagues, and they burst into laughter when they heard Xiahou's guess.

"Xiahou, you just think too much. Even if Gu Nanxi rebelled, the Marquis of Yongchang would not rebel."

Xiahou: "Since Yongchang Hou will not really rebel, why would Gu Nanxi take the initiative?"

Xiahou's words made everyone fall into silence. They actually thought that Yongchang Hou was already dead, so Gu Nanxi didn't ask him to show up.

"Perhaps he knew that we had irrefutable evidence and could not break the impasse, so he asked Yongchang Hou to die without any evidence."

Their initial plan was to put the Yongchang Marquis in jail by slandering him. As long as this spineless Yongchang Marquis fell into their hands and was tortured severely, they would surely get the confession they wanted!

Unexpectedly, this woman Gu Nanxi is really cruel. She can murder her husband without even telling him about it.

Xia Hou thought this reason was far-fetched: "This is not Gu Nanxi's style. She must have other intentions!"

"What's the intention?"

Xiahou frowned. If he could defeat Gu Nanxi's plan, wouldn't he be the wisest man in the Great Zhou? !

The person beside him patted Xia Hou on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. Let's follow the plan. No matter what Gu Nanxi is planning, it's all in vain in the face of the hard evidence."

For some people, time flies by quickly, but for others, the days pass by like years.

Five full days had passed since they were stopped at the main gate of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.

The Prince of Jiguo and others seemed to have spent half a year here. They looked listless, with dark eye sockets and bulging bags under their eyes.

Even though I just changed my clothes this morning, I still feel like I am emitting a strong, unpleasant smell.

"How many days have passed?" the person asking the question was weak.

Young man: "Five days."

"Ugh……"

Everyone sighed in unison, this job was really hard.

They wanted to go to the emperor to complain, but they had no reason to do so.

Gu Nanxi did not restrict their movements. As long as they did not wander around the mansion, they could leave at any time.

Gu Nanxi did not restrict them from contacting their families. If they were not used to the food at Baiwei Restaurant, they could also ask the servants in the mansion to deliver meals to their homes.

Change clothes, play with walnuts, fight crickets, play the piano and burn incense, whatever they want!

Someone wanted to find fault, saying that he was used to sleeping in his bed at home. Gu Nanxi allowed him to move the bed to the Marquis' Mansion, but it could only be placed on the main street.

You can leave the mansion if you want, but once you leave, it will be impossible to come back in!

The Prince of Jiguo scratched his body. He hadn't bathed for five days and felt itchy from his hair to his toes.

"For five whole days, not only did we not see any sign of the Yongchang Marquis, but even Gu Nanxi stayed indoors. There must be something wrong with the Yongchang Marquis's mansion!"

"Nonsense, if he doesn't have any problems, why are we here?"

"Everyone, hold on a little longer! I don't believe that Gu Nanxi can avoid showing any sign of betrayal!"

However, the Prince of Jiguo felt that no matter how long he sat there, when would it end? He had to find a way to force Gu Nanxi again!

The Prince of Jiguo muttered to the servant beside him for a long time, and then the servant ran out as if he was being chased by a dog!

The next day, a rumor spread in Kyoto.

"It's been such a long time, and Marquis Yongchang hasn't shown up yet. I guess he must have met with an accident!"

"Mrs. Yongchang did this either for ulterior motives or to cover up some big secret!"

"Have you heard? The eight dukes from the four countries all sent invitations to the Yongchang Marquis's mansion, hoping to invite Yongchang Marquis to attend the banquet, but they were all rejected."

"Your information is out of date. Didn't the invitation from the uncle of the emperor fail to invite the Marquis of Yongchang?"

"This is definitely a big deal! With Yongchang Hou's personality of loving to join in the fun, he would have already gone there in a hurry."

No matter what rumors there are outside, the Yongchang Marquisate is like a towering mountain, unmoved by anything.

Gu Nanxi's courtyard and Yongchang Hou's courtyard were separated by only a wall.

Gu Nanxi asked someone to open a small door in the wall so that she could check on the condition of Marquis Yongchang.

In the past few days, the eunuchs only fed Marquis Yongchang a few mouthfuls of thin porridge to ensure that he would not starve to death.

When Gu Nanxi came to see him, Yongchang Hou's cheeks had already become slightly sunken, but his eyes were still filled with deep hatred.

The eunuch had been trapped in the Yongchang Marquis's mansion for many days, and he couldn't help but feel anxious: "They have been guarding outside the door. When can we take action?"

Gu Sanshijiu suggested: "How about I take him to the suburbs..."

Gu Nanxi shook her head: "I don't know how many eyes are watching our mansion from the dark. As soon as you step out, someone will hold you back."

The eunuch was anxious: "What should we do? The other party must be well prepared! No matter whether the Yongchang Marquis is dead or alive, no matter whether he shows up or not, we will fall into his trap!"
