Sick beauty crying bag does not want to be the villain

Two days later, Gu Tai'an came back from the palace happily.

He recently had an errand in the Ministry of Officials, which was specially arranged for him by the emperor, probably because of Lin Huaiyi's injury before, the emperor said something serious to Gu Tai'an, and now he tried to give him grace to make up for it.

It has to be said that the current Holy Majesty does understand power and checks and balances very well.

No matter what, the Gu family is a family with meritorious deeds. If they can be appeased well, it will show the mercy of the Holy One.

Due to his busy schedule, Gu Tai'an was in a particularly good mood, with a smile on his face all the time.

At night, everyone was eating at the table in the main room, when the meal was almost finished, Wei Shi suddenly wiped his mouth and said: "Master, I have something to say."

Gu Tai'an didn't know what he was going to say, so he smiled and said, "Say it."

Someone next to him offered tea for gargling at the right time.

Seeing that the old lady had finished her meal and was getting up to leave with the help of her servants, Wei quickly said: "Rong'er was ill for two years before, I suspect it has something to do with the lady."

The old lady paused, turned her head, and said sternly: "Hanyuan, do you have evidence for this matter?"

Wei's boudoir name is Hanyuan.

She stood up and replied firmly: "Old lady, Hanyuan has evidence."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu yelled from the sidelines: "What did you say?! Where did you get the evidence? Don't swear!"

Gu Tai'an's good mood of the day disappeared instantly, he scolded: "Shut up! Don't yell."

After speaking, he said to Wei Shi: "If you have evidence, go and get it."

Wei ordered in a low voice, "Chun Jin, hurry up."

Chun Jin turned and left the main house, and soon she came over with a box in her hand, followed by Yuan Sheng, who lifted a servant by his collar and threw him to the ground: "Master, old lady, it is this people!"

The servant had already been beaten so that one side of his face bulged, but Gu Rong could vaguely tell that it was indeed the servant of Liu's courtyard.

The old lady covered her heart and said, "What's going on?"

"Madam, let me explain in detail," Wei said, "Before Rong'er woke up, by chance, Chun Jin noticed that Rong'er's soup tasted different from before, so she asked me to smell it. It was the same when I found out. Then I sent Chun Jin to investigate, and sure enough, some of the medicines he used had been replaced by others. Rong'er fell asleep in his illness, and he depended on these medicines to hang himself. Rong'er died?!"

Wei Shi said bitterly: "Isn't Liu Shi responsible for purchasing the commonly used medicines in Gu's residence before? I just followed this line to check. Master, let's not talk about this, do you still remember that there was a fortune teller before?" Saying that Rong'er has a light character and is an ominous person will cause the Gu family to lose its former glory. The fortune teller has also been confirmed to have contacts with the Liu family."

After speaking, she snatched the box from Chun Jin's hand, opened it and handed it to Gu Tai'an, Gu Tai'an saw that there was a witchcraft doll lying inside.

"Ouch!" The old lady couldn't see these things the most, she fell back to her seat while holding her chest, and said to Gu Tai'an, "Take it away, take it away quickly!"

Gu Tai'an said: "Lianqiao, help the old lady go back to the room."

After the old lady left the main house, Gu Tai'an walked aside, took out the witchcraft doll in the box and looked at it, and found a piece of paper on it with Gu Rong's birthday written on it.

Gu Tai'an turned around and asked Wei Shi: "Besides this, do you have any other evidence?"

Wei Shi: "Then I have to ask this servant in Da Furen's courtyard."

The servant whom Yuan Sheng mentioned earlier was panicked, and hurriedly crawled to Gu Tai'an's feet, and said repeatedly: "Master, please forgive me! This medicinal material is indeed done by the eldest lady. The eldest lady said earlier that the second The young master couldn't afford to be ill, and the medicinal materials he used were so expensive, and he hanged himself for two years without any effect, so it was better to save some expenses for the government, so I went to a medicinal material merchant in the East Wharf. The medicinal materials sold by the merchant were large and expensive. It’s cheap, I thought nothing would happen, just for a while... I lost my mind for a while..."

"Did you lose your mind for a while? The merchant sold fake medicine! You will indirectly kill the second young master!" Wei said with red eyes.

"I really don't know, master!" The servant just kowtowed blindly.

Gu Tai'an: "Go on, what else?"

"Fortune, fortune-telling is also true..." The servant stammered, "I heard Fu Ling who is next to Da Furen say that the fortune-teller seems to be from the same town as Da Furen's cousin..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Mrs. Liu came over in a hurry, "Master, I'm really confused about the medicinal materials, but what the merchant sells is definitely not fake medicine! I guarantee with my head that he just sells it cheaper than others. Isn’t it all right? I’m his aunt, how can I not love him. As for the fortune teller and this witch doll, it’s even more nonsense!”

After speaking, Mrs. Liu scolded the servant: "Asparagus! I usually treat you well, why did you frame me?!"

Asparagus fell on the ground, trembling.

Gu Tai'an said: "I have checked the fortune-telling matter. The gentleman who did the fortune-telling for Rong'er that day admitted that he is from the same town as your cousin, Mrs. Liu, what do you have to say?"

Liu was stunned.

"How could it not be a counterfeit medicine! If it wasn't a counterfeit medicine, why would he sell it cheaper than others?" Wei said.

"As for the matter of medicinal materials," Gu Tai'an raised his hand, "From now on, the procurement of medicinal materials will be handed over to Hanyuan, and Rong'er's body is the most important thing. As for this witchcraft... there is no evidence, so I will accept it."

After finishing speaking, Gu Taian handed the doll to Steward Wang at the side: "Butler Wang, find a place to burn this unlucky thing, burn it clean, and don't leave any trouble behind!"

Steward Wang took the doll and said, "Yes, master."

After Steward Wang left, Mrs. Liu took a few steps back and sat down on the chair.

Mrs. Liu did play some tricks in dealing with Gu Rong, and now she is shooting herself in the foot.

This thing ended like this, like a farce.Gu Tai'an expelled the servant from Gu's mansion and handed it over to Ren Yazi for sale.As for the Liu family, they were driven to face the wall in the ancestral ancestral hall to contemplate their mistakes.

This was different from what Wei Shi had imagined. She stood there in a daze, as if she couldn't accept this fact. After a while, she burst into tears.

Gu Rong was silent for a while, and went to help her: "Mother, let me take you back to your room."

Wei choked with sobs and said, "Rong'er, it's useless to be a mother, she can't get justice for you..."

Gu Rong shook her head: "Mother has done a good job."

After comforting Wei Shi and returning to the room, Gu Rong sat by the window in a daze and wiped away tears.

Suddenly, he saw a figure flash past the window.

"Who?" Gu Rong vigilantly picked up a writing brush by the window and threw it out.

"Master, it's me." Song Qianyuan's figure flickered and appeared by the window.

"Why is it you?" With tears still on Gu Rong's face, he hastily picked up the veil and wiped it off, "It's so late, why are you hanging around my door when you don't sleep?"

"The young master doesn't sleep, how can Xiaoqianzi sleep, of course he has to guard the young master."

There seems to be nothing wrong with these words, but if you take a closer look...

Gu Rongdao: "Last time you hid outside and watched me cry, do you want to watch me again this time?"

Song Qianyuan: "..."

"Get out!" Gu Rong threw another brush and went out, "No peeking!"

"Yes." Song Qianyuan laughed and backed away.

"Wait!" Gu Rong called to stop him, "You don't need to sleep tonight, just watch outside!"

If he loves guarding so much, let him guard it enough.

After speaking, Gu Rong closed the window and door with a "bang", ready to wash up and go to bed.

"It's the young master." Song Qianyuan's voice from outside carried an obvious smile.

Then Gu Rong heard the system say in his mind: [Progress bar +1. 】

Gu Rong: "..."

This Song Qianyuan is probably not a masochist, is he?

Gu Rong suddenly became suspicious.

The author has something to say:

Qian Zai: The more the young master bullies me, the happier he is! =_,=
