Chapter 54: Fire Dingyuan Hou's Mansion
When Gu Yuqi pointed the spear at Liu Yue, it happened that Gu Siyang got the news that they had come back from outside, so Gu Siyang hurried to Wanxinzhai.
As he turned around, he saw Gu Yuqi and Liang Huaiyu standing far and near under the moonlight and the lights. There were a large circle of maids and servants lying on the ground, none of them were moaning, and those who were not injured also retreated to the side. Trembling, no one dared to lean over.
Gu Yuqi, who was usually very gentle to him, now stood with her eyebrows upright, holding a silver spear in her hand, the tip of the spear pointed directly at a frightened and limp woman on the ground. Gu Siyang looked at it intently, his liver and gallbladder were cracked with fright. That woman's eyebrows were his biological mother Liu Yue.
"Go and call my father." Gu Siyang hurriedly sent his servant to the study to call Gu Huaizhong, but he rushed over quickly and hugged Gu Yuqi's arm without thinking. "Sister, she's Concubine Liu." He said to Gu Yuqi anxiously, "Sister, no matter what happens, we are all a family. It's good to wait for my father to decide everything!"
"You still call her elder sister?!" Liu Yue on the ground was already mad and yelled at Gu Siyang, "She and her mother have been expelled from the Hou residence by the Hou Ye! Siyang hurry up to report to the official! This lunatic To kill!"
Gu Siyang was obviously stunned by Liu Yue's words. He looked at Gu Yuqi in disbelief, his eyes filled with heartache and anxiety, "Sister, is this true? Did your father really kick you out of the house?"
Gu Yuqi looked back at Gu Siyang and smiled lightly, "Siyang, I will leave here with my mother tonight, you have to study hard, read more, listen more, think about everything by yourself, don't listen to superficial things You must not only see with your own eyes, but also with your heart."
"Sister, what time is it. You're still talking about this!" Gu Siyang said anxiously, "I'm going to beg my father and ask him to open the door. Don't drive you out of the house! What happened, didn't you say? Is it the most important thing for us to be together?"
"Siyang, a lot of things can't be explained in a few words." Gu Yuqi felt a little warm in her heart. She has been rewarded very well for her good manners over the years. She could see that Gu Siyang was really anxious, and she was also in a hurry. I really don't want to go by myself, so that's why I say that.
"In the future, you should have the style of a gentleman, behave properly, and stand upright. What your biological mother said and did not necessarily come from the heart to be good to you. Living in this world, there are many helpless, but you must grasp your own. Heart, don't be happy for things, don't feel sorry for yourself. Don't be easily instigated by others, and think twice about everything. Just remember what my sister said today." Gu Yuqi said to Gu Siyang, "Also, if you ask Gu Huaizhong, there is nothing You, it was my mother who was sorry at the beginning, but now my mother has divorced him. I am no longer the daughter of the Gu family, but I can still be your sister if you want." Then she turned to look at Liu Yue , said to Liu Yue word by word, "You understand! It's not that Gu Huaizhong doesn't want my mother, but my mother doesn't want to take care of her! In the past, he used my father's name, and I wouldn't say him in front of people, but now I Tell you, if you are really good for your children, don’t blindly obey Gu Huaizhong. He even betrayed the Liang family who gave him a big favor, and what is it to betray your aunt who was a little maid? Don’t believe us Just wait and see!"
After Gu Yuqi had said everything, she pushed Gu Siyang away from her.
Gu Siyang stared blankly at Gu Yuqi as she put away her spear, and walked to Wanxinzhai without looking back, her mind was chaotic.
Gu Yuqi's remarks just now left him completely at a loss. He felt that he had learned the etiquette, benevolence and righteousness for so many years, and the principles of ordinary people he believed in were all disturbed by Gu Yuqi's rebellious words at that moment.
What should he do? A sister said that they should not take care of her, not that she did not want them in her arms. Since ancient times, women have always been dependent on men, but why did he feel that her not-so-tall body seemed to be in front of his eyes when she said this just now It looks so majestic.
Don't be instigated, think twice about everything, don't be happy about things, and don't feel sorry for yourself. These words are all good words to warn the world. Although they are very common when they are said, they are very difficult to do. He turned around awkwardly and helped his mother, who was slumped on the ground, and looked at Wanxinzhai stupidly. From here, he could see that Chun Xing in Wanxinzhai was busy, and they were packing things overnight. Do you really want to leave the Gu family and the Hou residence?
He has always been pampered, only Gu Yuqi would give him some hardships from time to time, he was very angry at first, but gradually he understood that Gu Yuqi was not targeting him, but was teaching him that life is not smooth sailing, it will be fickle, so in him In the bottom of his heart, he has truly regarded Gu Yuqi as his own sister and a good teacher and friend, but he is stubborn and refuses to express it in front of others.
Just when Gu Siyang was stunned, a messy footstep came from the end of the corridor.
Liu Yue was originally angry and angry when she was supported by Gu Siyang, but because of the strength of the people in the yard, she could only stand on the side and sullen. When she heard the footsteps, she turned her head and saw Gu Huaizhong's figure from the dark. When she came out of the office, she was like seeing the savior, she pushed her son away, staggered and flew in front of Gu Huaizhong, crying suddenly, "Master Hou, I can't do anything about it these days. It's over! You can be beaten in your own home, and you also ask the Houfu to make the concubine master!"
She fell into Gu Huaizhong's arms as precisely as an octopus, crying with snot and tears. She was thrown to the ground by Gu Yuqi before, she was already very embarrassed, and she was slapped by Gu Yuqi a few times. She slapped her face, her face was red and swollen, her hair was disheveled, and the gold hairpins on her bun were loosened, half inserted and half hung on her hair.
Gu Huaizhong caught his concubine, and looked at the light, the anger in his heart was even more different.
After he returned to the mansion, he hid in his study. Because he was depressed, he poured himself a large jar of wine. He knew that Liang Huaiyu would definitely leave with Gu Yuqi tonight. He really wanted to stop him, but he had already lost face in Jingzhaoyin before, so what would he do to stop this mother and daughter? Don't you block yourself?
He Li was something he was angry about. He regretted leaving Jingzhaoyin Mansion. He should have knocked Liang Shi and Gu Yuqi unconscious and brought them back to Hou Mansion and locked them up. Zhaoying over there. Tomorrow, I don't know what the rumors about the Dingyuan Houfu will spread in this capital.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. The more wine he drank, he drank a jar without realizing it. When Gu Siyang's servant came to look for him, he was already a little drunk, but when he heard what the servant said , still jumped three feet high, and rushed over with a group of servants.
Really courageous! It's not enough to go to Jingzhao Yin Mansion to make trouble, come back and make trouble! This time, if he doesn't have to deal with the mother and daughter in a tough way this time, outsiders will really think that Gu Huaizhong is a softie!
As soon as he walked in front of Wanxinzhai, his concubine swooped in her heart, and when he looked closely, his anger grew even stronger. If Liang Huaiyu was still the mistress of the Gu family, he couldn't say anything about beating a concubine, but she, Liang Huaiyu, had already separated from herself, so what happened to beating someone? Did he really think that there was no one in his Dingyuan Hou Mansion?
"Stop howling!" Gu Huaizhong held back his anger, and was grabbed by Liu Shi and cried, his heart became more and more irritable, and he couldn't help shouting at Liu Yue, "I'll go get justice for you!"
Liu Yue was first taken aback by Gu Huaizhong's roar, and she fell silent. When she heard Gu Huaizhong's words behind her, her heart instantly burst into joy. She immediately pretended to be delicate and retreated to the side, letting Gu Huaizhong take the nurses with her. 's family passed by. (
A sneer crossed her swollen face hidden in the darkness.
She can't do anything about that pair of mother and daughter whose force is on the charts, that doesn't mean Hou Ye can't either! Who is that person in Dingyuan Hou Gu Huaizhong! It is a person who has made great achievements on the battlefield. As long as he goes out, he will keep the mother and daughter obediently and obediently.
At that time, she is adding fuel to the jealousy and saying something, as long as the Hou Ye is angry, it is possible to cut off the mother and daughter!
"Father!" Seeing the murderous intent on Gu Huaizhong's face, Gu Siyang couldn't help but tremble slightly. After all, Gu Huaizhong was someone who had gone to the battlefield, and that anger radiated from him along with the killing intent. The maid and old lady who ordered had been frightened and shrank to both sides, and gave way to Gu Huaizhong, but Gu Siyang greeted him. As soon as he approached, he smelled a strong odor of alcohol, and secretly thought that it was not good.
"Go away!" Seeing his son standing in front of him, Gu Huaizhong said displeasedly, "Go back with your mother, it's none of your business here."
"Father, even if they are wrong, please ask your father to forgive them." Gu Siyang hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Siyang will accompany their father for them."
"Aren't you going to accompany them?" Gu Huaizhong was dazed by his own son, raised his big hand and slapped Gu Siyang aside, "Go back to your study and squat! There is no order from Ben Hou. Come out!" After speaking, he said to the servants who followed him, "Take the young master away! Don't be an eyesore here!"
All of them are reversed, right? Gu Yuqi is already a dead girl who is rebellious and unfamiliar, and now her son has come to intercede with her again! Does he really think that Gu Huaizhong's words are the same as farting?
Gu Siyan was caught by the sudden slap in front of Gu Huaizhong's slap, and Venus shot straight in front of him. He staggered a few steps to one side before stopping. He just stood firm, and two servants came over and took him away without any reason. Seeing that her son was beaten innocently, Liu Yue was also anxious. She wanted to follow him, but she felt that she should stay and watch the play, so she took two steps forward, but stopped, turned her head and followed Gu Huaizhong. behind.
Chun Xing and the others moved very quickly, they just packed some valuables, and they didn't even bring more clothes, so they had already been tidy up in a very short time.
Just when Liang Huaiyu was about to take everyone away, as soon as he stepped out of the room, he met the murderous Gu Huaizhong.
"Put your things down! Be obedient and capture them." Gu Huaizhong glanced at the maids and guards in the yard, and finally set his eyes on Liang Huaiyu's face.
The moonlight and the lights in the yard were intertwined, and a halo of light and shade fell on her. That beautiful face was even more three-dimensional and moving. It was only when she lost it that she realized how valuable it was to have it. Gu Huaizhong only felt a faint pain in her heart. At the same time, the brain numbed by alcohol has only one crazy thought, leave her behind! She can't just leave like this!
Liang Huaiyu handed the burden in her hand to Chun Xing's, gave her a look, motioned her to take Gu Yuqi from behind, and she stayed behind to entangle Gu Huaizhong. She secretly held Gu Yuqi's hand again, and quickly wrote a few words on her palm. Gu Yuqi was startled at first, and then she wrote back a few words.
Only then did Liang Huaiyu slowly smile, holding the long spear in his hand to a handsome spear flower, and then slamming the end of the spear heavily on the ground.
"It seems that there is going to be a battle between us today?" She smiled faintly. In the moonlight, the smile became more and more beautiful and moving. Her dress was gently blown by the night wind, and her hair was flying. Behind her head, her movements are handsome yet calm and beautiful. In the courtyard, she stands tall like a flower in water.
Gu Huaizhong felt that he was crazy... He never thought that his wife was so beautiful... She was really like a god.
He hadn't looked at her so well for a long time, he looked at her carefully.
"Stay." It took a long time for Gu Huaizhong to come back to his senses, and he said with a light cough, his tone softened a little, "Stay, as long as Nang goes to confess to Prince An, I will go and ask His Royal Highness for a sympathy, maybe Ah The girl will not be punished, but can marry into the royal family." He had already thought about his escape route, and it was the mother and daughter that exploded like a cannonball, making him completely unable to express his intentions calmly. . So in the current situation, he felt that if he explained his original intentions properly, Liang Huaiyu would forgive himself. After all, all his starting points were for the Hou Mansion, what an honor for Gu Yuqi to marry into the royal family in the future!
"Ha." When Liang Huaiyu heard the words, she couldn't help but chuckle, "Master Hou is really good at calculating. I can think of such a strategy of killing two birds with one stone, that is, to protect the Hou residence and let my daughter climb the high branch. I really admire it." She Gu Huai's laughter was still as crisp and moving as when she was a young girl, which made Gu Huai's heart move.
"So you don't need to run away overnight like a bereaved dog. As long as you stay, Ben Hou promises not to pursue everything that happened before, and Ben Hou will also find a way to get Na Heli Shu back, we are still a family!" Gu Huaizhong He took a few steps forward eagerly, suddenly aware of a chill coming, he tilted his neck subconsciously, then took a closer look, the bright spear in Liang Huaiyu's hand had stabbed in front of his throat, and the tip of the spear was far away from him. His skin is only a finger's width away, if it wasn't for his quick reaction, I'm afraid it would have been stabbed.
Rao is Gu Huaizhong, and also broke out in a cold sweat, "You! Are you actually going to murder your husband?" He said angrily.
"Husband?" Liang Huaiyu smiled coldly, "Are you still worthy of being my husband? Don't forget, we have already divorced. To me, you are just a perfidious, timid and stinky man." She said After a pause, "It's more accurate to be a villain."
"Are you really unwilling to stay?" Gu Huaizhong's anger that had calmed down a little earlier was picked up by Liang Huaiyu again, he glared angrily and said sharply.
"What is there for me to miss here?" Liang Huaiyu sneered.
"That's good, today Ben Hou is going to tie you up!" Gu Huaizhong raised his hand to catch Liang Huaiyu's **** and snatched it away. Liang Huaiyu had been on guard for him for a long time, and where would he succeed? The two hit it off in an instant.
The servants who followed Gu Huaizhong looked at each other and didn't know whether to help or just watch, but they could only spread back a little, ready, as long as the Marquis gave an order, they would rush up. Big Brother Demon.
It was now, seeing Gu Huaizhong and Liang Huaiyu fighting, Gu Yuqi immediately took advantage of everyone's attention and was attracted by their husband and wife, and let Chun Xing and the others follow her to slip out through the back door.
"Sister Chunxing, Uncle Zhao Hu, let's go grab the horse and carriage." Gu Yuqi was worried that Liang Huaiyu would not be able to last long, so she quickly said to Chunxing, "Everyone else will wait outside the back door."
"Yes." Zhao Wu immediately responded, he quickly handed over the things in his hand to another guard's hand, and then followed Gu Yuqi and Chun Xing to the stables in the backyard of the Hou residence.
Chun Xing was worried about Gu Yuqi's ankle, but Gu Yuqi shook her head and said it was fine. What time is it, and I am worried that some of these are gone. Her ankle is really swollen, and it hurts as soon as she walks, but at this juncture where her eyebrows are burning, let alone a swollen injury, even if it is broken, she has to run quickly. Road first.
After arriving at the stable, Gu Yuqi knocked out the servant who was watching the stable without saying a word, and asked Zhao Wu to move him to the yard. She chose a good horse from Gu Huaizhong to ride on, and then asked Chun Xing to take the others. All the horses were led out, and Zhao Wu was driven out in a carriage. She said to Chun Xing, "You go to the north gate and wait for us, and we will arrive later."
"Yes!" Chun Xing is a neat person, not a mother-in-law, so she immediately carried out Gu Yuqi's arrangement, and with a dozen horses, Zhao Wu drove the car out of the Hou residence.
Gu Yuqi looked at the empty stables, and simply turned over all the lamps on the wall with a long spear. There was oil in the lamps and grass in the stables. It didn't matter when she turned over, the stables caught fire in an instant. Half a bucket of water was splashed on the face of the houseman who was knocked unconscious by her, and the houseman was stunned and woken up again. When he looked in front of him, he jumped up from the ground in fright. The wind was blowing, and even the place where the hay was piled up next to it was burned.
"Someone! It's gone!" The Ding Huo shouted as if his **** was burning, and staggered and ran out to find someone.
Gu Yuqi flicked the reins, rode a horse, carried a silver spear, and ran quickly towards Wan Xin Zhai.
Liang Huaiyu's martial arts are good, but his strength is not as great as Gu Huaizhong's. She was at a disadvantage, but she reluctantly supported her honor guard, her familiarity with the Liang family's marksmanship and the agility and lightness of her posture.
Just when she was getting more and more powerless, she suddenly heard a crisp sound of horse hooves behind her. She and Gu Huaizhong stopped and looked in the direction of the sound.
In the darkness of the night, the moonlight was like silver, and the lights were like fireflies. A cardamom girl came galloping on a horse. The horse's hooves didn't touch the ground. She held a silver spear in her hand. The tip of the gun shone with silver light under the moonlight and the lights. She was as light and beautiful as a fairy walking down from the painting. The enchanting and gorgeous eyebrows were full of vitality and heroism. Wherever they passed, the land shrouded in the night seemed to bloom with gorgeous flowers, like a dream.
That night, Gu Yuqi's heroic horse-riding left an indelible impression on the hearts of everyone present. Her beauty was so unreal, but she was so real that she passed them by the side of the horse. At a glance, it was forever unforgettable. .
"Mother, let's go!" After she rushed into Wanxinzhai, she lifted the reins forcefully, the horse's hooves suddenly stopped, and the man stood up. Gu Yuqi held the rein with one hand and the gun with one hand, and followed the horse's high rise, Bravely.
"Okay. Let's go!" Liang Huaiyu smiled at her daughter, turned over and landed behind her. The mother and daughter didn't stop for a while, turned their horses and rushed out.
Gu Huaizhong was obviously stunned by everything in front of him. He didn't recover until Liang Huaiyu mounted the horse and the two figures disappeared outside the gate of Wanxinzhai.
"Someone! Stop them!" he roared, jumping on his feet.
The housekeepers looked at each other, this man ran away, where to stop him?
"Master Hou, they are riding on horses, the little ones can't stop them!" The courageous hurried forward to answer.
"Rice bucket, rice bucket!" Gu Huaizhong was furious and said angrily. "Prepare the horse, prepare the horse!"
Just when he was clamoring to prepare a horse, someone stumbled over and said, "Master Hou is not good, the stable in the backyard is on fire! The fire is so big that it has burned the house next door."
Gu Huaizhong was stunned for a moment, and then he recalled it immediately, and said through gritted teeth, "I'm not going to put out the fire yet!" Half of the night sky has already been lit up, and when you leave Wan Xin Zhai, you can even smell the smell of burnt wood wafting in the wind.
"Liang Huaiyu! Gu Yuqi! I won't let you go!" Gu Huaizhong stomped his feet angrily and roared! This **** girl, she grabbed the horse and even set fire to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion! It seems that she is determined not to come back! Well, since you are ruthless, I am not righteous!
Gu Huaizhong didn't care about Liu Yue, who rushed over to stop him, and ran to the back door angrily. Because of the fire in the backyard, he could feel the heat waves as soon as he stepped in. Gu Huaizhong rushed out the back door, letting his head swell up. After calming down slightly, he looked at the dark alleys on both sides, which was the closest to the north gate. They must have gone to the North Gate.
Gu Huaizhong dashed all the way to the north gate.
