Back To My Husband’s Youth - Chapter 63

Pingshuo Zhai.

There was something like that in the racecourse before, and everyone’s expressions were a little unsightly. A dozen people were sitting together and whispering: “Why did the horse suddenly go crazy?”

“It is estimated that the lord of Leping wants to win so much that the horse went crazy because of the pain.”

“These horses were originally sent by the Gentiles. They were untamable. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with them, or else…” The man said he didn’t go on.

After a moment of silence, someone said: “I don’t know what is going on with Princess Leping now? How about we go and see her?” They have been getting along with Gu Wuyou for a few days now, but they are slowly beginning to like her.

Especially when something like this happened today, they were indeed worried.

Several people were about to agree. Lu Yan, who had sent Gu Wuyou there just now, came back. When a group of people saw her back, they asked: “Ayan, how is the lord Leping? Is she okay?”

Lu Yan was thirsty after walking all the way. Hearing that he first took the tea from the waitress and drank eloquently, he replied: “It’s okay, I have already let Lady Zhang wipe the ointment.”

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. Even Xiao Yi, who had never spoken, also let out a sigh of relief. She didn’t even notice her. Since returning from the racecourse, her hands have been clenched tightly.

Until now, it was like waking up from a big dream, and the clenched hands were also released. Only a few nail prints were hidden in the red palms, which had deeply penetrated into the flesh, and they were almost pinching blood.

But as soon as her heart fell, Lu Yan said again, “But–“

When everyone heard it, they all asked: “But what?”

“Duke Dingguo is here, and he also brought a lot of soldiers…” Lu Yan frowned, his voice lowered a little, “I think some of them are heading towards the racecourse.”

As soon as the voice fell, there was silence in the room, followed by many people discussing, “What do you mean? I took the soldiers and went to the racecourse? Is it possible that Lord Dingguo thinks that there is something wrong with Princess Leping?”

“Speaking of which, the horse was really weird just now.”

“If someone really used a method, it would be too bad! That’s a living life! If it wasn’t for Li Qinyuan just now to protect Princess Leping, who knows what she will become now?”

A group of people in the room spoke outrageously, very angry.

No one noticed that Xiao Yi’s expression changed long after Lu Yan had finished speaking. Her gentle and beautiful face was very pale, and even the hand that had just been released was clenched again at this time.

There were very noisy voices around, but she seemed to hear nothing.

No, there is still a voice…

“Duke Dingguo is here, and he also brought a lot of soldiers”, “Someone has gone to the racecourse now”, “The man who used the means is too bad, I should really check it out, or keep such a person. By your side, what peaceful day will we have in the future?”

These words kept reverberating in her ears, making her ears explode.

Xiao Yi tried to withstand these sounds, but found that she couldn’t shake it no matter how loud she shook it. In this increasingly louder sound, she only felt that her heart was beating like a drum, and even gave her the illusion that this heart was about to jump out of her throat.

Xu Wan would hear them say this and then frowned, turned her head and talked to Xiao Yi next to her, “Ayi, you said that someone really did harm Gu Wuyou?” Although she didn’t like Gu Wuyou, she never liked it. It’s just taking advantage of words, but in private, I dare not act at all.

After talking for a long time, Xiao Yi didn’t answer.

Looking back, she found that her face was very pale. She was startled and worried: “Ayi, what’s the matter with you? Why is your face so bad?”

As soon as he touched his hand, he saw Xiao Yi suddenly stand up. Even the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table fell to the ground with great movements. This heavy voice directly calmed everyone in the room, and everyone looked back. When I went, I saw the girl in a lilac skirt with pale face and red lips full of tooth marks.

I had never seen Xiao Yi like this before. Everyone stayed for a while. As soon as he wanted to speak, Gu Yu walked in from the outside with a calm face.

Seeing the look of Xiao Yi and the things that fell to the ground, Gu Yu’s eyes flickered, and her small face sank even more closely. She stared at Xiao Yi, as if it was the first time to take a serious look at people in Xiao. When the brilliance in Yi’s eyes gradually gathered, he said in a deep voice, “Come out with me.”

“Ayu?” Xiao Yi seemed to be taken aback.

Without waiting for her to say anything, Gu Yu walked forward and dragged the person out, completely ignoring where Xiao Yi walked, and even ignoring the group of people behind calling her name, so he dragged the person and walked outside. .

“Ayu, you hurt me.”

Xiao Yi didn’t know what happened to Gu Yu. Her first thought was that she discovered what she had done, but not to mention Ding Guo’s talents had passed by, so she said that the needle had already penetrated the horse’s belly. .

But it’s just an ordinary embroidery needle, how could Gu Yu know that she made it?

So after a period of panic, Xiao Yi returned to her original appearance, gentle and kind. Even though Gu Yu was treated like this, she was only behind her and made a gentle complaint.

Gu Yu heard her voice as always, and the steps under her feet also stopped.

She even wondered, is she guessing wrong? Maybe someone else? A Yi is a good temper when she is young, how could she make such a hurtful move? What about thinner needles? There are so many people in Pingshuozhai, maybe there are others too? But thinking of Xiao Yi’s panic expression and the mutilated ground when he entered just now, Gu Yu still closed his eyes.

She grew up with Xiao Yi and knew her better than anyone else. If it weren’t for what happened, she would never show that look. Finally walked to a clean place, Gu Yu stopped, shook off Xiao Yi’s hand, looked at her with a calm face despite her staggered figure, and opened her mouth just like, “Why?”

Xiao Yi is usually mild-tempered, but at this time she is also a little agitated by her attitude and actions.

Her face was uncommonly unsightly. She stood firmly on the wall, rubbing her wrists with fingerprints, frowning at her, saying, “Ayu, what’s the matter with you? What and why?”

“You know what I’m asking.”

Gu Yu was still the same as before, her hands clenched into fists, and her red lips pressed tightly, “I found the traces of embroidery needles in the saddle with Jing Yubai.” Seeing her long eyelashes tremble lightly, her expression There was also a hint of panic.

“So what?” Xiao Yi returned to normal after a brief panic.

She put a slightly trembling hand behind her, and forced her usual face to look at the person, “Ayu, we are all women, and we have just attended the female red class before, why do you think it is me?”

Finished.

She sighed slightly again and looked at Gu Yu, seeming to be a little disappointed, “I don’t know what’s wrong with you, and I don’t know what Princess Leping told you that will let you…”

Before he finished speaking, Gu Yu interrupted him, “It’s all reached this point, are you going to lie to me?!”

Unlike the previous gloomy and unbelievable, Gu Yu was angry at this time, her eyes were red, and she stared at Xiao Yi, the peach eyes that were slightly raised on weekdays had already burst into tears, “Do you know Knowing that the uncle is here, he has sent someone to the racecourse, and soon they will find out that the saddle is wrong.”

“Do you think you can hide from the sky, thinking that no one will find your head?”

“Xiao Yi, are you too smart?!”

In the eyes of those in the upper ranks, these people are just playing kids. They think they have no mistakes and are foolproof. But when things are done in this world, how can they be foolproof?

She looked at Xiao Yi, and when she saw her face was pale, she still opened her mouth to argue. She didn’t know if she was tired, or she didn’t want to tell her anymore. Gu Yu looked at her, no longer angry, but said to her in a very calm tone: “The eye of the saddle is smaller than ordinary embroidery needles, and you were bringing a box of embroidery needles from Jiangnan not long ago. come.”

Seeing Xiao Yiru’s face struck by lightning, Gu Yu looked at her lightly and said, “Did you forget this when you did these things?”

“I……”

Xiao Yi was really panicked, she had indeed forgotten about it.

Gu Yu saw her like this, and it took a long time to speak. It was a very disappointing tone, mixed with endless sighs: “Ah Yi, why on earth did you become like this?” Xiao in her memory Yi has a gentle temperament and is also very polite in dealing with people. She played with Ai Yi most of the time when she was young.

Although they are not relatives, they are more close than relatives.

But now–

The panicked woman in front of her clearly had the same appearance as Xiao Yi before, but why… it made her feel so strange.

She seemed to vent all her strength and asked her in a low voice, “Have you ever thought that if Li Qinyuan didn’t follow him at that time, if he could not save Gu Wuyou, then…what would it be like now?”

Xiao Yi did not answer.

She didn’t know how to answer.

She didn’t expect that horse to be so crazy, she just…want to scare her.

When she saw the horse running so crazy, she regretted it. She just hated Gu Wuyou and didn’t want her to die. She was just not reconciled… not reconciled to this woman every time she appeared. Attention is drawn away.

Not reconciled to everything she tried so hard to get, Gu Wuyou always got it easily.

But she really, really never wanted her to die.

Seeing her like this, Gu Yu didn’t want to say anything. She seemed to sigh deeply, and finally held her hand and said to her: “Ayi, come with me to meet your uncle, and confess your mistake to Gu Wuyou.”

“What then?” Xiao Yi said with a pale face, “Gu Wuyou won’t let me go.”

Gu Yu frowned, and her voice was stern, “You have done something wrong, no matter how she treats you, you should suffer…” Xu Zhi felt that her tone was too heavy, and she sighed again. “I will accompany you.”

Xiao Yi knew that Gu Yu was right, but thinking about the consequences, she still paled, “No, no…”

Gu Yu didn’t hear clearly, and asked her, “What?”

Xiao Yi raised her head, she grabbed Gu Yu’s hand with her backhand, just like a drowning man grabbed the last piece of driftwood, and said in a trembled voice: “Don’t let others know that I did it, Ayu, help me, no one knows me. There is that needle…”

“As long as you don’t say it, no one will know.”

Gu Yu seemed to be stunned. She stared at Xiao Yi blankly, and at Xiao Yi who was begging her in a low breath, and then said in disbelief, “You said…what?”

At this time, in the yard separated by a wall from them.

Gu Jiufi stood up straight from the wall he was leaning on. He glanced at the wall lightly. There was no superfluous expression on his face, only his eyes were deep, as if splashed with ink.

He didn’t say anything, and continued to walk in the direction where he had come. He stopped when he met a few soldiers on the road.

“Young Master Nine.” The soldiers greeted him.

Gu Jiufi nodded, glanced at the saddle in his hand, and said quietly, “Go to Pingshuozhai and bring the Lord Changning over.”

The soldier was stunned, “What?”

“Go, go and turn over her desk, if there is a needle, bring it with it, if someone stops…” Gu Jiufi thought of Gu Yu, his eyes dimmed, “Bring it too.”

“Yes!”

“When I look back, my father asks, it doesn’t have to be me.” This was the last sentence left by Gu Jiufei before he left.

The soldier was stunned, looking at his back, and then he responded: “…Yes.”

When Gu Jiufi returned to Lady Zhang, he just heard Gu Wuyou talking, “Daddy thinks I was in the accident because someone murdered?” He paused slightly. It seemed that he didn’t expect this wise sister from a young age. Will think of this layer.

He didn’t say anything, he took a step forward and continued to walk into the house.

He has always been such a person. If he doesn’t want others to pay attention to him, in most cases there is no sense of existence. When he enters, only Li Qinyuan, who is facing the door, seems to perceive something and glances at him.

But he didn’t say anything. As soon as his eyes turned, he fell to another place.

He didn’t say anything. He returned to his seat and sat down. He continued to hold a lamp, lowered his head and drank slowly.

Gu Wuji didn’t expect her to guess that he was actually reluctant to let his daughter see the ugliness of the human heart. He hoped that his brutality would always be happy and carefree, but he could watch her look at him. Eyes, but he didn’t want to lie to her, he hesitated and said, “Let’s take a look first. If it is accidental, it is naturally best. If not… you can also get rid of these evils.”

Gu Wuyou smiled when he heard the words.

It’s not that she has never experienced those dirty things, nor is she really as simple as a blank sheet of paper. Perhaps Gu Wuyou was like this in the past, so she was trampled on, bullied, and smashed again and again. Can’t get up in the quagmire.

But she knows how ugly this world is.

It is because of knowing that she wants to see the light in this ugly world and is more willing to believe in the good of people.

“When the horse ran just now, I had already noticed that, although I used force, but that force did not make the horse so crazy…” Gu Wuyou said slowly in the silent room.

Gu Wuji stunned, as if she didn’t expect that she would have guessed it a long time ago, and couldn’t help asking: “Then you can guess who did it?”

Gu Wuyou didn’t answer immediately. She seemed to ponder for a while before she spoke, “Today there are a total of three academies in the racecourse, but it’s actually easy to guess. The people who don’t Zhizhai and Changrongzhai are far away, they’re close. No horses.”

“And that horse has been ridden before me, and it hasn’t appeared to be unusual, so the person who wants to harm me can only be between the time the last person dismounted and I mounted the horse.”

Gu Wuyou spoke slowly and clearly, “At that time, it was naturally impossible for the second group of people to ride a horse. Ayu and I were together again… but only a dozen people were selected.”

“If you want to know who was close to the horse at that time, just ask the rest of the people. Ask them what they were doing at that time and who was around them… As long as they are cross-examined one by one, they will naturally find the fault. .”

In fact, there are a few candidates in her mind, but there is no evidence yet, so it’s hard to talk nonsense.

The crowd in the room obviously did not expect that Gu Wuyou would say such a thing, whether it was a tea drinker or a talker, they would all cast their eyes on her.

Gu Wuji was also stunned.

In his heart, Manman had always been a young child. He was always worried that she would be injured, bullied, and suffered a dark loss, so as soon as he heard about her accident today, he brought his soldiers.

I didn’t expect…

His daughter was much calmer than he thought. She not only guessed that things were different, but also came up with her own set of regulations. Even if he did not come today, she would be able to find out the real culprit by herself.

Gu Wuyou blushed when he was seen.

In fact, this is also what they learned when following the general. Once they went to Jiangnan to play and encountered a murder case. Unfortunately, the two of them were involved in it. They thought they would have to wait for the local prefect to come to solve it. The general found out the real culprit in a few strokes.

When the assailant does things, he always thinks that he is doing something hidden.

But as long as all the mists and obstacles are removed, no matter how well the perpetrators can hide them, they can also find out the mistakes.

Thought of this.

She couldn’t help but looked towards Li Qinyuan’s direction.

Yin Yin Hongri hit him through the fan. The white-clothed boy was sitting on a chair. He was looking at her earlier than her. His narrow and long phoenix eyes were full of smiles, which was a very proud smile. , As if saying “Little girl is amazing”, her face flushed again.

The people in the room either already knew what they wanted, or they had guessed it.

Jing Yubai and Qi Xu each drank tea without saying anything. Fu Xian seemed to be immersed in this matter, with a painful expression. As for Gu Jiufi… he watched the two look at each other, his thin lips pressed lightly. , Did not say anything.

Gu Wuji, the only one who didn’t know anything, was also immersed in the feeling of “daughter has grown up” at this time, and the expression on his face could not tell whether he was happy or uncomfortable.

It took a long time to hear someone faintly said, “Manman has really grown up.”

Gu Wuyou retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at Gu Wuji, still with his sweet look with his eyes bent, and smiled with him: “So Dad doesn’t have to worry about what I might feel if I know these, and you don’t have to hide me specifically.”

“I always believe–“

She paused. Although the next sentence was light, it was loud, she looked at Li Qinyuan’s direction and slowly said, “No matter how dark there is in this world, there are still countless people working hard to create light.”

There was silence in the room again, and everyone was watching her.

A moment later, just as Gu Wuji was about to answer, Chang Shan walked in and said to him, “Master Guo, I have found it.”
