Chapter 15 Preconceptions
What surprised the eldest girl was that King Cheng did not return to his mansion or go to the palace after returning to the capital. They settled in a small courtyard in the west of the city."
Fang Guanjia said. Ye Ning said with a smile, which was not surprising. After all, on the surface, King Cheng and Bai Chengzhi were both noble young masters who liked to travel around the mountains and rivers. It made sense not to return to the palace and to focus on the market. But in the last life, Ye Ning said that
I really thought that King Cheng had no intention of going to court. Could it be that she was wrong? Suddenly, Ye Ningyu realized something. "How did you find out where they live?"
Guan Fang said, "I sent Shao Kuan to investigate all the way. He knows King Cheng and also knows Mr. Bai."
After saying that, Butler Fang quickly added, "Shao Kuan was the one who assassinated the eldest girl that day."
"I'm afraid their residence is intentionally hidden for us to explore."
When Butler Fang heard this, he hurriedly said, "Shao Kuan has always been careful..." "Uncle Fang, Bai Chengzhi must not be underestimated. From what I know about him, if he doesn't want others to know his whereabouts, it will be extremely difficult to find out."
Butler Fang was silent for a long time. He did not ask why the eldest girl knew this Southern Tang businessman so well despite having never been out of Dadu in these years. His tone sounded like an enemy he had known for many years. "Then what should we do?"
Butler Fang felt that he was underestimating his enemy. He was afraid of ruining the eldest girl's affairs. "It doesn't matter, I have no intention of making an enemy of him. Let's see what happens to him."
Butler Fang breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, Mrs. Duan also came to tell Ye Ningyu that she had personally given the sign to Eunuch Liu. Eunuch Liu did not say much and only reassured the princess. For the whole day, Ye Ningyu
They all walked around the house with the support of Qinglian and Luzhu. After drinking two doses of the powerful medicine of An Lao Miracle Doctor, Ye Ningyu felt that the wound was indeed healing faster than before. But she did not dare to use too much force for fear of
The wound was torn, and she wouldn't be able to go out tomorrow, so she had to take a break every time she walked around. Qinglian only felt that the eldest girl's whole body seemed to be tense these past two days. She didn't know how long this situation would last, but
I feel that the atmosphere in Ye Mansion is very depressing. Especially in Qiu Shuiyuan, Ye Ningyu has hardly said a word in the past two days. In his spare time, he would either look out the window or frown with a book. That night, Ye Ningyu stayed up all night
She couldn't sleep. She couldn't help but think about everything she had experienced in her previous life, like a picture appearing in her mind all the time. When she woke up the next day, Ye Ningyu had a big green patch under her eyes. Qinglian was startled.
At Ye Ningyu's request, she applied some powder. At dusk, Ye Ningyu changed into the maid's clothes and quietly left the corner gate of Ye Mansion with only Luzhu. She hitched a small carriage and headed to Gu's house. She would
Qing Lian stayed in the hospital. If anyone in the house found out that she was not recovering from her injuries in the house, there would be chaos, especially her mother. As long as Qing Lian was there, no one would suspect. Ye Ningyu had already found out that Gu Zhen'er had been
While raising a baby at her mother's house, Mrs. Gu went to the palace to see the queen. At this time, there were only Gu Zhen'er and Gu Erlang in the Gu family. It was these two people she wanted to see. At the end of the Youshi period, a carriage stopped at the door of the Gu Mansion. I heard it was
When the maid of the Ye Mansion came, Gu Zhen'er didn't believe it at first, and scolded the person who reported the news, who was from the Ye family, and how could anyone dare to report it to the manor. Until Ye Ningyu walked to the main hall of the Gu family, Gu Zhen'er, who was pregnant with Liujia, opened her mouth.
What maid of the Ye Mansion? This is obviously the eldest girl of the Ye family of the Hou Mansion, the eldest daughter of the Ye family who was seriously injured a few days ago. Ye Ningyu was supported by the maid, wearing a plain white dress and a thin
The cloak is thin. The cloak half covers the face, and the face is a little pale. There is a trace of blood on the lips due to the makeup. On the evening of August, the breeze blows, Ye Ningyu stands there, his eyes are bright, and the wind lifts the hem of his clothes.
, like a character walking out of a painting. The Erlang of the Gu family stood behind his eldest sister. Seeing this scene, he felt a little dazed. Gu Zhen'er's reaction was not much better, with surprise written all over her face. Ye Ningyu was hurt.
Most everyone knew the news, but they didn't know why she came to Gu's house injured. I saw that the girl had a cold and decisive temperament, which seemed to be incompatible with this bustling metropolis. "Miss Gu."
Ye Ningyu looked at Gu Zhen'er and spoke first. "Ye Da..." Gu Zhen'er was about to take two steps to greet her. Before she could finish her words, she saw Ye Ningyu wink at her. Gu Zhen'er has always been smart, and suddenly she remembered what she had just passed on.
She is the maid of the Ye family, not the eldest daughter of the Ye family. Ye Ningyu must not want her whereabouts to be spread. Gu Zhener paused and her tone became calm. "Come in."
Luzhu helped Ye Ningyu to the main hall of the Gu family and spoke slowly, "My girl has something important to tell us to tell Miss Gu, and please step aside."
Gu Zhener was heavy and sat down after welcoming them in. Hearing what Ye Ningyu said, he glanced at his younger brother behind him and wondered what kind of medicine this girl Ye was selling in her gourd. When tea was served, Gu Erlang asked the maids and servants on the left and right to retreat.
Next, Luzhu also withdrew. "Is Miss Ye's injury better? Is there something that cannot be communicated to the servants, and I have to go there in person?"
Ye Ningyu didn't answer, her eyes fell on Gu Zhen'er's belly. "Sister Gu family, how is the fetal condition these days?"
Gu Zhen'er's face showed a soft look, "The doctor at my house checked my pulse every three days, and the anti-fetal medicine has not been discontinued. It's just that the weather is too hot. It's safe to go back to my parents' house and save my worries."
Hearing this, Ye Ningyu felt relieved and said softly, "Can I take the anti-fetal medicine today?"
Gu Zhen'er nodded. Just before Ye Ningyu came to the door, she had just drank a bowl of medicine. "Miss Ye came here injured. I am afraid she is not only concerned about my body. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Gu Zhen'er's heart pounded. Miss Ye was not a hesitant person. Ye Ningyu stood up with difficulty and spoke every word with a trembling voice. "In the battle on the Yuliang border, General Gu and my father may have their lives in danger."
The Gu family siblings were stunned and looked at the pale Ye Ningyu in surprise, confirming whether she was joking. "There was news from the border. During the battle at Gray Wolf Mountain not long ago, there were spies in the army fighting against the enemy.
They colluded to set up a trap to kill General Gu, and then slandered my father. Now, the two generals are afraid that they have been framed... The battle report will be sent back soon, Sister Gu, and Second Young Master Gu must be prepared!"
After Ye Ningyu finished speaking, her eyes were already red. She did not dare to say too much or too detailed, so she could only tell the Gu family's siblings the outcome of the matter. The battle report would be sent back tomorrow. Before that, she at least wanted to tell the Gu family's siblings
Preconceptions suggest that the fault of General Gu's death was not his father, but the enemy's spies and the instigators behind the scenes. Sweat had already appeared on Gu Zhen'er's forehead, her face was pale, she was covering her lower abdomen, and her speech was unclear. "Is the news... accurate?"
Ye Ningyu choked with sobs and held Gu Zhen'er's hand. "The battlefield was dangerous, and General Gu and his father fought for the country. If they died on the battlefield in a dignified manner, it was their father's ambition to protect the country and the people. But if they lost their lives due to power struggles,
, I must find out the truth and seek justice for them!"
Feeling the sweat and strength in Ye Ningyu's palms, Gu Zhen'er felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen. Gu Erlang helped the eldest sister, and his expression suddenly changed. Ye Ningyu's sonorous words, which were suppressed in her voice, could not be heard.
She had written a letter to prove it, but for some reason, the Gu family brothers believed her. Gu Zhener grabbed Ye Ningyu's wrist. "What kind of power play? What kind of spy? Are you saying that my father died in an unknown manner?"
The Ye family, like the Gu family, was born as a military general and had a distinguished military career. The children of the two families were taught from an early age that generals go to war to protect the country and the people. Behind them are the people of the country. Even if there is a sea of fire and a mountain of knives in front of them, they will never be there.
Half a step back from the battlefield. If someone dies in battle and is shrouded in horse leather, it is also an honor for a military commander. But they never thought that they would lose their lives in the conspiracy. Ye Ningyu also endured the pain from her lower abdomen, and she would be able to tell Sister Gu
