In the middle of the night, Gu Yuhuai returned home.

Xu Jiaoxing had been waiting for her to come back in the mansion without resting. Now that she saw him coming back, her anxious heart finally felt much better.

Seeing that she looked tired, Gu Yuhuai felt distressed for a moment, so he coaxed her to go back to the house to rest.

But Xu Jiaoxing couldn't sleep. When she thought about him being called into the palace, she couldn't help asking about the whole story. Gu Yuhuai didn't intend to hide it from her at all. When she asked about it, he started talking from beginning to end.

told the matter.

After Xu Jiaoxing heard this, she couldn't help but said in surprise: "You changed the elixir for that real person?"

Gu Yuhuai was very puzzled. He raised his eyes and looked at her carefully for a while, and then said: "I thought you would ask me why the emperor wanted to punish me."

Xu Jiaoxing was amused: "Since he believed what the sorcerer said, he attributed all the abnormalities in the palace to an ominous person like you. Come to think of it, the fire in the alchemy room was no accident. It was just an attempt to put you like this.

Those who escaped the fire were associated with the ominous person."

Gu Yuhuai stretched out his hand and tapped the tip of her nose, and couldn't help but laugh: "I never thought that my wife is so smart. Yes, all this is the queen's intention. She wants to use the emperor's hand to get rid of me. After all, she is the one who

The mastermind of the fire that year."

Xu Jiaoxing looked at Gu Yuhuai, and suddenly thought of what little Zhou said that day. Come to think of it, Gu Yuhuai had already pried open little Zhou's mouth and got the answer he wanted.

Already.

But why did she set that fire just to smooth the way for her sister?

Seeing the suspicion on Xu Jiaoxing's face, Gu Yuhuai rubbed her head and laughed softly: "Okay, let's rest first. Those are insignificant things, don't think too much."

Xu Jiaoxing nodded, he carried her to the bed, and he also undressed and lay down. Xu had just experienced a storm, and both of them had their own thoughts.

It was hard to fall asleep now, but suddenly, I heard the voice of a camel dragon coming from outside, saying that the third prince was here.

Gu Yuhuai stood up to leave, but he was afraid of disturbing her, so he looked in her direction worriedly, and saw that she was looking at him with a worried face, but she hadn't fallen asleep yet!

Gu Yuhuai was lost in thought. He really wanted to stay with her, but there was still the Third Prince waiting outside. He had no choice but to kiss her forehead, coax her to sleep first, and then hurried away.

That night, after Xu Jiaoxing left, Gu Yuhuai still had no sleepiness.

After lying in bed for more than two hours, it was daybreak. Thinking that Gu Yuhuai had not left the house yesterday and did not know if he had eaten this morning, Xu Jiaoxing packed up and got up early.

Who would have known that just after getting up, I heard that the prince had gone, and Gu Yuhuai also went to the palace with the third prince to hold funerals.

In the remaining days, Gu Yuhuai did not come back, but she asked Tuolong to bring her jujube cakes.

After the prince's funeral, news came that the emperor was seriously ill. The so-called real person, the alchemist, was also executed by the third prince. For a time, people in the capital were panicked. They all said that the prince was the alchemist who was killed by the alchemist.

The teacher was killed, and no one dared to talk about the metaphysics of those real people, for fear of being implicated and innocent people suffering.

On the other side, the queen wanted to use the sorcerer's words to pull Gu Yuhuai down. Who knows, now, instead of being affected, Gu Yuhuai actually killed the prince.

The resentment in Empress Jiang's heart could not be quelled, so she sent secret guards to assassinate Gu Yuhuai. Who would have thought that Gu Yuhuai was so skilled that those secret guards could not deceive him at all.

In the end, except for accidentally discovering the existence of the little Zhou family, they did not hurt Gu Yuhuai at all.

When Gu Yuhuai saw this, he simply pushed the situation and made Xiao Zhou think that these secret guards were sent by Empress Jiang to kill her.

Little Zhou was so frightened that after careful consideration, she still asked someone to find Gu Yuhuai and promised to come forward to identify Empress Jiang.

From the initial plan to set fire to the death of Mrs. Qian Lu Houye, to the later use of Gao Sheng's hand to frame Gu Yuhuai, Gu Yuhuai asked her to write down everything in black and white.

After she finished her statement, Gu Yuhuai handed her to Dali Temple along with the letter of accusation.

After being investigated, the emperor was bedridden again. This matter naturally fell on the third prince. Because the matter had such a wide impact, the people in the capital were talking about it. No one thought that this empress Jiang was.

Such a person!

Empress Jiang was investigated, and all the ministers who had tried to please her were in danger, fearing that the Third Prince would find out about them. For a while, they all distanced themselves from Empress Jiang, and no one wanted to get involved with him.

relation.

Not to mention running around for her!

Then, someone finally found Gu Yuhuai for her, and that person was none other than Lord Lu.

Looking at the man who should be his biological father, Gu Yuhuai originally thought that since the real murderer of his biological mother had confessed his crime, he would not have the slightest sympathy for Jiang Houcun.

But he actually begged for love for that woman. He said that since he had killed the prince and taken the life of her own flesh and blood, the original score could be considered even.

When he heard this, Gu Yuhuai suddenly smiled. He never wanted to mention the past things in front of him, but at this moment, Gu Yuhuai couldn't help but ask: "I thought you still remember me."

The way my mother died in the fire."

Lord Lu was silent, Gu Yuhuai smiled bitterly, turned around and left. He no longer wanted to mention his late mother in front of this person anymore.

"What would you do if you knew that the person you killed was your half-brother?" Lord Lu asked in a deep voice. Gu Yuhuai paused in his steps and looked back at him, the bitter smile on his face getting darker.

A bit thicker.

He really didn't want to think that in order to save the murderer's life, he even came up with such rhetoric.

Seeing him stop, Mr. Lu thought that his words had an effect, and hurriedly said: "Before I married your mother, I had known her well, and we had already agreed to be married. However, fate

Funny, that child came at the wrong time, and in order to be with your mother, I ended up betraying her and the child in her belly."

Gu Yuhuai knew clearly that the woman he was referring to was Empress Jiang...

Suddenly, he understood that his biological father came to him and said these words just to get him to agree to keep Queen Jiang alive.

After scoffing, Gu Yuhuai said coldly: "It turns out that you not only caused her to die in the fire, but also deceived her." After the voice fell, he didn't want to look at him anymore, turned around and returned to the house.

Lord Lu was trembling slightly. Looking at the person who was leaving quickly, he suddenly understood that it would not be easy to get his forgiveness in this life, not to mention asking him to let Jiang go.

back!

But he is just dreaming!

******

Not long after Mr. Lu came to plead for mercy, Queen Jiang died in prison. It was said that she chose to commit suicide only after Mr. Lu visited her in prison.

Later, Lord Lu resigned and went into seclusion. When he was leaving, he made a special trip to see Gu Yuhuai. Of course, Gu Yuhuai still didn't see him.

In September of the same year, the Emperor's Zen was dedicated to the current three princes. The three princes devoted themselves to the people, worked hard, valued agriculture and business, and loved talents.

In the same year, a group of meritorious ministers were consecrated, among which Gu Yuhuai was at the top of the imperial list. Unless the top two were rewarded with silver and given a mansion in the capital, he was also conferred the title of Yong'an Bo.

When the imperial edict arrived at the mansion, Gu Yuhuai immediately thought of Xu Jiaoxing, thinking that he had earned her an uncle's wife. He felt happy and asked people directly. It turned out that Xu Jiaoxing was still here.

At the drug store, Gu Yuhuai no longer hesitated and went directly to the drug store.

He wanted to tell her the great news.

However, at this moment, Xu Jiaoxing's medicine shop was not peaceful.

Mrs. Ji just sent her servants to give her some sweet-scented osmanthus dumplings. Li Yan'er came up to her in a flash, holding Xu Jiaoxing and not letting go, demanding an explanation from Xu Jiaoxing.

This made Xu Jiaoxing confused. Before she could recover, she heard her curse: "Doctor Xu, you have a husband after all. Don't seduce my cousin all day long. You

I think my aunt really likes you, even if you shamelessly divorce your man, my aunt will only let you be my concubine!"

Xu Jiaoxing laughed angrily: "Miss Li, do you know what you are talking about!"

Li Yan'er thought Xu Jiaoxing was frightened by her words, and the look of pride on her face became even stronger.

"Xu Jiaoxing, this is what my aunt told me. She only approached you because you have an inexhaustible cellar of medicinal materials. Otherwise, you really think that the Ji family would marry a divorced woman.

Be a madam?"

Gu Yuhuai heard these words from Li Yan'er when he came, and for a moment, his face turned livid with anger.

He hurried up and without saying a word, he directly ordered the camel dragon beside him: "Go! Send Mrs. Ji's pastries back to me, and send this woman named Li Yan'er back to the Li family."

, ask me carefully if he still wants to be a sixth-grade imperial official!"

"Yes, uncle!" Tuolong responded and walked towards Li Yan'er, "Do you want me to kidnap you, or do you want to go by yourself?"

Li Yaner was so frightened that her face turned pale!

Just now, she could hear clearly, and carefully, this man did call Gu Yuhuai uncle just now!

However, regardless of whether that person is an uncle or not, he was still a general before!

Her father was only a sixth-grade official, so he was no match for Gu Yuhuai. Now she just had a bad breath. Who knew that this bad breath could go wrong!

Li Yan'er almost cried when she walked out of the drug store. Everyone in the drug store who was watching the excitement pointed at her and made fun of her.

Dr. Xu's husband-in-law is not only good-looking, but also a high-ranking official. How could she possibly be able to look at him in white clothes again?

After all, it’s Li Yan’er who has the problem!

However, Dr. Xu has a good temper, so she is not upset at being slandered like this. On the contrary, Dr. Xu, her husband, is said to be an uncle. It’s amazing, it’s really amazing!

So, under everyone's envious gazes, Gu Yuhuai directly pulled Xu Jiaoxing away.

After leaving the door, he just said: "Don't provide plasters to Ji Ji in the future. Mrs. Ji would have known that you had an inexhaustible treasure and came all the way from Linxian County to Beijing. Do you think she was after this?

What."

Xu Jiaoxing was slightly stunned. She heard that he said it was her own space, and combined with the fact that she disappeared for no reason last time on the battlefield, she suddenly came to her senses.

It turned out that he had known about it for a long time. No wonder, after so long, he never asked her about what happened at that time!
