233 The Poison of Escape


In the hall of Guo's Mansion, all the maids stood with their hands down, as silent as a cicada, while all the masters sat quietly, all of them looking solemn as never before.

"Is it really impossible to cure it?"

Princess Chen Liu asked.

Duke Guo of Qi shook his head, sighed and said, "Mom, the imperial doctor has tried his best, but he said that Dao'er's right hand was too badly injured and he will never be able to hold a sword again."

A strange color flashed in Guo Dun's eyes, and he couldn't help but say with a frosty face: "I really didn't expect that the noble son of the Chen family would be so harsh.

It's in vain that our two families are family friends."

Duke Qi gave him a warning look and said: "Of course the swords are ruthless in the competition.

Chen Hanxuan's martial arts is better than your fifth brother.

The director is injured like no one else.

What's the use of blaming others?"

Duke Guo of Qi said this with a very ugly face.

He did not expect that things would develop to this point.

He was just participating in the competition at the invitation of the emperor.

How could he lose his right hand?

For a person like Director Guo, it was so sudden.

He had lost his right hand.

Wasn't all the martial arts he had learned over the years in vain?

He also knew how sad Duke Qi was, but he did not show this emotion in front of Princess Chen Liu.

Mrs.

Guo's whole body trembled heavily, and then she calmed down, except that the corners of her eyes were red and her eyes were always lowered.

Princess Chen Liu burst into tears when she heard the news yesterday.

She was about to cry without tears.

She blamed herself and said: "It's all my fault.

If I hadn't encouraged the director to participate in the competition, things wouldn't be like this. " The eldest grandson daughter-in-law, Mrs.

Jiang, who was standing next to her, hurriedly persuaded her: "Grandma, don't worry.

Although the imperial doctor said that Fifth Brother's right hand cannot be cured for the time being, we may not be without solutions if we look for famous doctors.

We must think of the good in everything."

Princess Chen Liu's face did not improve because of this persuasion, but she sat there in a daze with a long sigh.

Chen Bingbing's eyes were full of self-blame.

She knelt down in public and apologized: "This matter is all my third brother's fault.

If he hadn't been too harsh, he would never have been like this.

I will definitely let my father discipline him."

"No, this has nothing to do with you.

Get up quickly."

Princess Chen Liu helped her up and shook her head.

Chen Bingbing felt that her heart was like duckweed floating on the water, very restless and uneasy.

She thought that her brother had hurt her brother-in-law.

What if the Guo family members pursued her or took it to heart, how should she deal with it?

She couldn't help but feel cruel to Chen Hanxuan in her heart.

After scolding her fiercely, she was relieved to see that neither Princess Chen Liu nor anyone else meant to blame her.

Jiang patted Chen Bingbing's hand, turned around and said, "Grandma, the fifth brother is a proud and arrogant person.

We must not show sadness in front of him.

Yesterday you were not going to visit him, but you were Did the doctor stop him?

His mood has stabilized a lot today.

I will accompany you to see him later."

Jiang's face was kind, his smile was gentle, and his tone of voice was very calm and endearing.

When Princess Chen Liu heard this soft voice, she couldn't help but nodded and said: "That's okay, you two go with me."

After saying that, she stood up, left the hall with the support of her two granddaughter-in-laws, and walked to the door of the hall. , but she suddenly turned around, glanced at Mrs.

Guo, who had been silent, and finally sighed.

Without saying anything more, he turned and walked out.

As soon as Princess Chen Liu left, Mrs.

Guo turned her head and stared at Duke Qi, and said very seriously: "Guo Su, you and I have been married for many years, and I have never heard you tell me a lie.

What happened yesterday?"

Tell me the truth, as a mother, I have the right to know."

Duke Guo of Qi looked at his beloved wife and did not say a word for a long time.

Li Weiyang, like Madam Guo, had remained silent since just now.

When she heard Madam Guo say this, she also looked at Qi Guogong.

Guo Cheng couldn't help but urge: "Father, is there any hidden secret in this matter?

Why don't you tell the truth?"

Qi Guogong glanced at his son, and something seemed to melt in his eyes, which was difficult to interpret because it contained so many emotions.

There was dead silence in the entire hall, and everyone could only hear the sound of the wind blowing outside, bringing a heart-stopping chill.

Li Weiyang slowly said: "Father, we are all a family.

In yesterday's match, I saw that the fifth brother's martial arts was obviously better, and Chen Hanxuan's sword did not hurt the fifth brother.

Meridians, why can’t I use my right hand?

The imperial doctor only told you about the matter, why did you refuse to tell us for so long and chose to hide it from your grandmother?”

Qi Guogong's eyes swept across the faces of everyone.

Li Weiyang's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard and knocking away all the emotions in his heart.

He knew that the matter could not be hidden for long, so he said: "Yes, it was not because of that sword that the director was so seriously injured.

The fundamental reason why he could not hold the sword was because of the smear on the long sword.

Poisoned.”

Mrs.

Guo only felt a huge force coming towards her, and then violently tore her whole body from head to toe.

She looked at Qi Guogong in disbelief, her voice trembling: "What did you say?"

Duke Qi looked at his wife with grief in his heart, but tried his best to suppress it on his face, saying word by word: "The imperial doctor told me that Chen Hanxuan's sword was smeared with poison that can paralyze muscles.

Could it be that the treatment was timely?

I’m afraid all the guide’s limbs will be lost, not just his right arm.”

Everyone's faces were shocked at this moment, especially Guo Dun.

He said in disbelief: "Chen Hanxuan is crazy.

Our Guo family and Chen family are so close, how could he do such a vicious thing?"

Is it just for Princess Shouchun?"

Li Weiyang's crystal clear eyes became condensed.

She glanced at Guo Dun, but shook her head and said: "According to me, this matter may not be the fault of the Chen family."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Weiyang for a moment, and Mrs.

Guo couldn't help but take a step forward and asked: "Jia'er, what do you mean by that?"

Li Weiyang glanced at Qi Guogong, who nodded gently to her.

Li Weiyang's eyes suddenly became sad, and he continued: "The Chen family has always been on good terms with our Guo family.

For the position of a consort, they There is absolutely no need to commit such a murderous attack, not to mention that the daughter of the Chen family is our daughter-in-law.

Wife, if Chen Hanxuan's poisoning is exposed, how should mother and father treat Chen Bingbing?

I think that no matter how stupid the Chen family is, they cannot be this stupid, so Chen Hanxuan's sword must have been tampered with.

The purpose of the person behind the scenes is to instigate the Guo and Chen families to turn against each other. " The muscles on Qi Guogong's face trembled uncontrollably.

He gritted his teeth and said, "What Jia'er said is true.

This matter must not have been done by the Chen family."

Mrs.

Guo turned around abruptly, her eyes as cold as a sword, as cold as ice, as sharp as any sharp blade in the world.

She said sternly: "But that sword was made by Chen Hanxuan, and the director's injury is also inseparable from him."

Even though he knew that the poison was not caused by the Chen family, the hatred was still forged.

She is a mother, and she cannot forgive Chen Hanxuan no matter what.

Li Weiyang's eyes were dark, and when she saw Mrs.

Guo showing a coldness that she had never seen before, her eyes showed an unspeakable sadness, and she sighed softly.

The person behind this was vicious and capable of sowing dissension.

It can be said that he is perfect.

No matter how generous the Guo family is, the matter involves the Guo family's youngest son, Director Guo, and Mrs.

Guo will not let it go no matter what.

Planting a little seed of resentment in your heart may seem like nothing, but as long as you wait for the right time, this seed will take root, sprout, bloom into flowers of evil, and eventually destroy the alliance between the two families.

Thinking of this, Li Weiyang walked up, held Mrs.

Guo's arm, and said softly: "Mother, you have been thinking too hard and overworked about Fifth Brother's affairs.

In my opinion, you should go back and have a good rest first.

If anything happens, It’s not too late to talk after you have rested.”

Mrs.

Guo looked at Li Weiyang, the stern look on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by tears in her eyes.

Finally, she said with tears in her eyes: "But your fifth brother" Li Weiyang patted her hand and said with a forced smile: "Don't worry, mother, we are naturally there with the fifth brother, and we will never let him do anything stupid."

Mrs.

Guo sighed for a long time.

At this point, she had no other choice.

At this moment, the housekeeper hurried into the hall, saluted everyone, and then said: "My lord, someone from the Chen family is here."

The expressions of Duke Qi and everyone in the family changed slightly, and then Mrs.

Guo said with an angry face: "Tell them, no guests."

As soon as these words came out, the steward's face was extremely difficult.

He glanced at Duke Qi, and Duke Qi gently said She shook her head at him, and the butler continued: "My lord, Mr.

Chen is here this time."

Even Chen Shang, the Grand Tutor who was already ranked among the Three Dukes, came in person.

The matter was not trivial and Qi Guogong already knew that he had to meet him this time.

He glanced at his wife, and then comforted him in a low voice: "If there is something wrong with my wife, let's talk about it later.

I have to meet the Chen family.

This matter is of great importance.

Don't act rashly."

After that, , he took a deep look at his wife, and then walked out with the housekeeper.

Mrs.

Guo sat slumped on the chair.

Her face was haggard and her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

Li Weiyang looked at her appearance and felt a slight pain in her heart.

Unknowingly, she became happy and sad about Mrs.

Guo's happiness.

Sad, seeing Mrs.

Guo so sad at this moment, all she felt was overwhelming anger.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Not only against the mastermind behind the scenes, but also towards the Chen family.

Chen Hanxuan bears undeniable responsibility for this matter.

If he hadn't been careful, how could he have given the other party a loophole to poison his sword?

This is not to express anger, but because the Chen family does bear responsibility for such things.

Guo Cheng stood up at this time and said to the maid next to him: "You can help Madam go back to rest first.

I have something else to say to Young Lady."

The girl next to her came over and helped Mrs.

Guo towards the inner hall.

Li Weiyang turned her head, eyebrows deep, and said to Guo Cheng: "Third brother, do you have anything to say to me?"

Guo Cheng's eyebrows furrowed, then relaxed, but his tone slowly became stagnant: "Jia'er, what should we do now?"

Li Weiyang raised her eyebrows slightly and said: "What should I do?"

But at this time, Guo Dun's face was ashen.

He had always had a bad temper.

It was extremely difficult to stay awake after such a thing.

He walked up quickly, looked at Li Weiyang and said: "How to find out?

You, the person behind this, are the smartest, and we all listen to you.”

Li Weiyang shook her head gently, the darkness in her eyes gradually faded, and slowly there was a sharp light.

She said: "Actually, it is not difficult to guess the person behind the scenes.

Chen Hanxuan blamed himself for hurting Director Guo. , I didn’t pay much attention to the subsequent competition, so who will win in the end?”

Guo Cheng and Guo Dun looked at each other.

Guo Dun turned pale and gritted his teeth and said, "It turns out it's him again, Pei Hui."

Li Weiyang continued to look at him, and said word by word very calmly: "The Pei family and the Guo family are old enemies.

It is not strange for him to kill the fifth brother this time, but this person is vicious because he does not attack directly. , instead hurt through Chen Hanxuan In this way, no matter whether we guess who is behind the scenes or not, we will have a bad relationship with the Chen family.

So this time, the head of the Chen family knew that the matter was serious, so he came here to apologize.

In my opinion, I'm afraid he even brought Chen Hanxuan with him."

Guo Dun's face was covered with a layer of frost, and he asked: "How can we avenge our fifth brother?"

Li Weiyang's eyes were like sparks, flickering on and off.

She sighed and said: "Pei Hui just won the competition and hurt the fifth brother again.

It's time to be vigilant.

Now is not the best time to touch him.

We can only wait until The enemy can only take action when he is complacent and relaxes his vigilance, so we have to wait."

When Guo Dun heard this, he was about to say something, but Guo Cheng next to him held his shoulder.

Guo Cheng admired Li Weiyang very much.

He thought he was already a very smart and calm person in situations, but Li Weiyang could distinguish the head and tail and see the essence clearly faster than him.

He saw that the fifth brother was injured and was already in disarray.

But she is able to think about things very far.

He quickly adjusted his emotions and replied: "You are right, we cannot act rashly on this matter."

Guo Dun held back his breath and said, "Okay, I heard that we naturally have to deal with Pei Hui, but for the fifth brother, we also have to comfort him.

I think he seems to be in a bad mood."

Guo Cheng nodded and said, "Little sister, maybe you can persuade him to be more effective than us."

He said something strange, and Guo Dun couldn't help but look back at Guo Cheng, wondering what his intention was.

But Li Weiyang understood what he was talking about.

There was silence in the hall, and even the sound of breathing was almost inaudible.

It was a taboo that was clearly understood in an instant, but Li Weiyang could only pretend not to know and said: "Let's go."

The courtyard where Director Guo lived was very quiet.

As soon as he entered, there was a martial arts training ground.

Li Weiyang looked at the lush bamboo forest filled with swords and wooden stakes and couldn't help but shook his head.

Director Guo is a noble man with both civil and military skills, and a very proud temperament.

If he knew that he would never be able to lift a sword with his right hand for the rest of his life, it would be a huge blow.

Just like scholars cannot take the imperial examinations, farmers have no fields, and all the shepherd boys' lambs are dragged away by wolves.

These are the worst things in the world.

They are not only related to livelihood, but also completely destroy a person's mind.

Li Weiyang sighed softly, and then quickly entered the inner courtyard.

Before entering, he suddenly heard Director Guo's voice.

"Who is coming outside?"

The voice was very hearty, as if nothing had happened.

Guo Cheng and Li Weiyang looked at each other and remained silent for a while.

But it was Guo Dun who was the least scheming and spoke first.

He said loudly: "Fifth brother, let's come see you."

As he said that, he pushed open the door and walked in quickly.

Princess Chen Liu and her two grandsons were sitting inside.

When she saw them coming, Princess Chen Liu was relieved and said: "Jia'er, you came just in time, please help me take a look and see what happened to your fifth brother."

Li Weiyang glanced at Director Guo, but felt that his expression was as usual, his peach blossom eyes were still affectionate, and his face was smiling, as if he was not affected by anything.

Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Li Weiyang smiled and said: "Fifth brother, are you feeling well?"

Director Guo smiled warmly and said: "Of course I'm fine.

I should ask you what's wrong.

Why are you all coming to my yard to visit me?

It's just a minor injury and it will be fine soon."

He said this He looked up, but subconsciously glanced at his right arm, which was tightly wrapped.

Li Weiyang followed his gaze and looked over.

Director Guo was stunned for a moment, then slightly unnaturally turned sideways to avoid her eyes.

Li Weiyang frowned slightly.

Director Guo clearly knew everything, but Why is he pretending to be nonchalant?

Does he really not care about such a blow?

No, this is impossible.

Princess Chen Liu couldn't help but said: "Look at him, he is still smiling heartlessly, what's wrong with him?"

Princess Chen Liu said, she shed tears embarrassingly, Director Guo comforted her with gentle eyes: "Grandma, it's all your grandson's fault.

I've made you sad.

In the final analysis, I'm useless in this competition, otherwise I wouldn't lose to Young Master Chen.

Don't be sad, I will get better soon."

Princess Chen Liu cried louder and louder.

As people get older, their ability to bear it often becomes poor.

I think of how decisive she was when she was young.

Except for being a little too kind to Ren and her three children, no one has ever dared to be disrespectful in front of Princess Chenliu.

However, over the years, Princess Chenliu's personality has gradually become very gentle. , even when encountering this kind of thing, apart from crying, I can't say anything good to comfort Director Guo.

Li Weiyang saw Director Guo's brows furrowed deeply, but there was a wry smile on her lips.

She sighed and walked up, softly comforting Princess Chen Liu: "Grandma, fifth brother said he is fine just because he is fine.

As for his injury "Looking back at Director Guo, seeing that he looked calm, he continued, "We will naturally find a good doctor to treat Fifth Brother's injury.

Grandma, don't worry.

If you break your eyes from crying, wouldn't Fifth Brother have to do it?

So anxious” Director Guo responded repeatedly, and several people coaxed and deceived, finally sending Princess Chen Liu away.

Guo Dun glanced at Director Guo and said subconsciously: "Fifth brother, don't worry, we will definitely avenge you."

Director Guo said with a trace of surprise in his voice: "Fourth brother, let's stop this matter of what nonsense you are talking about.

No one should pursue it anymore."

Guo Cheng's pupils began to shrink.

For a long time, Fang looked at Director Guo and said, "Since you know everything, why?"

Before he could finish his words, he heard Director Guo say firmly: "It concerns the Chen family.

We must not act rashly.

No matter what we do, we will only make the people behind the scenes proud, so for the time being, we can only stay put and find an opportunity to retaliate."

When he said the words "return", his voice was very low and very slow, almost speaking out one word at a time from between his teeth, and a strong hatred burst out from his eyes.

Coinciding with herself, Li Weiyang's eyes softened.

If Director Guo could figure it out so quickly, then she would be relieved.

It’s just that he knew that there was a black hand behind his injury.

Even Guo Dun was so angry, but Director Guo, as the person involved, was so calm, which showed how calm and wise he was.

Li Weiyang found that he had underestimated this Guo in the past.

The fifth son of the family, she smiled softly and said: "Since the fifth brother is fine, let's go back and don't disturb his rest here."

When he was about to leave the yard, Li Weiyang couldn't help but turn around.

The sun was shining warmly, and Director Guo was standing quietly in front of the window, looking at her for a moment.

The wind blew his black hair, and his expression was full of emotion.

There was a hint of sadness, and this look made Li Weiyang suddenly feel uneasy.

Li Weiyang walked out of the yard.

Her face was calm and cold, but there was a hint of evil in her eyebrows.

Zhao Yue said in a low voice: "Miss, look" Li Weiyang said calmly: "Send someone to keep an eye on Pei Hui for me.

If there is any trouble, report it to me immediately."

Zhao Yue immediately responded: "Don't worry, Miss."

After this incident, everyone took great care of Director Guo.

The elders of the Guo family seemed to feel sorry for their son and cared about him very much.

Such emotions filled the sky in the Guo Mansion.

If Director Guo went out, Princess Chen Liu would keep whispering in his ear, asking him to come back early and not hang around outside in case anything happened.

And Guo Cheng and Guo Dun never left his side for a moment, as if he couldn't think of committing suicide.

Such over-protection looked in Li Weiyang's eyes, but she secretly shook her head.

In her opinion, Director Guo was a person with a very strong self-esteem, and he should not be able to bear such care.

Sure enough, the excessive emotions of the Guo family caused Director Guo to avoid them and often not be in the yard.

Mrs.

Guo went to look for them several times, but Director Guo was nowhere to be seen.

There was even a time when she went there in the middle of the night only to find Director Guo sneaking in through the small courtyard door next to him, still smelling of alcohol.

Mrs.

Guo felt distressed and angry but had no choice.

Li Weiyang knew that Director Guo must not be able to let go of what happened that day, and the emotions of the Guo family pushed him further, so she wanted to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Princess Chen Liu and others, and not to hurt Director Guo with excessive care. self-esteem, but she did not expect that it was too late to act at this time.

That night, the girl went to deliver sweet soup to the Fifth Young Master's yard, but found that the Fifth Young Master was not in the house, so she became anxious and hurriedly went to notify Mrs.

Guo.

Mrs.

Guo originally thought that Director Guo was just going out to drink with friends, so she didn't care.

However, for three days in a row, Director Guo didn't come back.

Mrs.

Guo couldn't help but become anxious, and sent someone to look for Director Guo at the home of a friend who was familiar with him. , and finally even looked through the entire book, but Director Guo could not be found.

When the matter reached this point, it was very serious.

Guo Cheng and Guo Dun were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, looking around all day long.

In addition to arranging people to search for it, Guo Su, Duke of Qi, also wrote a letter to Jing Zhaoyi, asking him to lead people to search in the city.

However, no matter how he searched, Director Guo seemed to be lost in the sea and could not be found. .

Li Weiyang knew that Yuan Lie was smart and cunning, and had many channels that ordinary people did not have, so he entrusted the matter to Yuan Lie.

So Yuan Lie secretly ordered his spies to search Dadu for half a day, and suddenly sent a message back to Li Weiyang, saying The fifth son of the Guo family passed out drunk in a very shabby restaurant.

To put it very euphemistically, it is more like a brothel than a restaurant, which is still a very low-grade kind.

Duke Guo Su of Qi personally went to the small restaurant to find Director Guo.

He was so drunk that he had no idea that the Guo family was looking for him.

Duke Guo of Qi couldn't wake him up no matter how he screamed, so he suppressed his anger and had Guo Dun carried back.

Mrs.

Guo burst into tears when she saw her son whom she had not seen for a long time.

She ordered her maid to bring hot water and then wiped his forehead herself.

Guo Cheng advised Duke Qi to go back and rest, but Duke Guo Su's face was as cold as frost.

He said coldly: "No, I want to wait for him to wake up and ask him personally what is going on."

Li Weiyang just felt strange.

She knew that Director Guo had been avoiding the excessive care of the Guo family recently, but he was a smart and restrained person and would never do anything excessive.

It was just a sudden disappearance this time.

He was still in that kind of place.

Being found was really outrageous and not at all like Director Guo’s style.

Director Guo fell asleep for three full hours.

When he woke up again, his face was very haggard.

He looked at everyone with an incredible look on his face.

Guo Cheng saw Duke Qi's unkind look and quickly asked: "Fifth brother, what's going on with you?

Why did you stay away from home for so long without telling us?

Do you know how anxious your father and mother are?"

Director Guo felt a splitting headache.

He frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't know either."

He held his head as if in great pain.

Duke Qi's eyes were extremely sharp, and he looked at Director Guo intently, suppressing the anger that was about to burst out.

The son of the Guo family may not know martial arts or have no talent, but he must not be a self-destructive bastard.

Seeing that her husband looked extremely angry, Mrs.

Guo quickly ordered someone to bring sobering soup.

Director Guo drank the hangover soup, but his head was not much clearer.

When he looked at his father and other family members, his eyes became even more confused.

Duke Guo of Qi said in a cold voice: "Are you feeling better?

Just sit upright.

I have something to ask you."

Director Guo opened his mouth as if he wanted to explain, but Duke Qi's expression of wanting to sentence him made him hold back and said nothing.

Duke Qi's voice was very cold: "I have trained you for so many years.

I thought you were a smart kid who knew the importance and would never do anything stupid.

But this time you are too outrageous.

Are you hurt?"

Hand, you can leave home and never return , What's the point of making your mother sad?

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Where have the Guo family's many years of teaching gone to, so much so that you lingered in the Qinlou Chu Hall and refused to go home?

Do you know that this matter has been spread everywhere, and it has become a storm in the city.

You are Do you sincerely want to make the Guo family unable to hold their heads high?"

Director Guo touched his eyebrows with his hand and lowered his head slightly, but he looked completely shocked.

Li Weiyang saw that Director Guo had a dull expression, but seemed not to understand what Duke Qi was saying.

She couldn't help but feel strange.

She looked at Director Guo and asked: "Fifth brother, what strange things have you encountered these days?"

Something?"

From Li Weiyang's point of view, Director Guo may be sad, sad, or uninhibited, but he is definitely not to the point of being depressed or even staying away for several nights because of this incident.

He loves his mother very much and cares about his family very much.

He would never do anything to make them sad.

So why did he get drunk in the brothel?

In fact, Duke Guo of Qi might have misunderstood Director Guo.

He had already sent people to question those people carefully, but they all said that the young master of the Guo family had been drinking there in the past few days until he was unconscious and knew nothing about the others.

Li Weiyang vaguely felt that there was something strange about this matter, but she couldn't tell what was strange.

Director Guo knew that no matter what he said, Duke Qi would not believe it.

He shook his head violently, but suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

As he said that, he was already swaying outside.

Walk.

Duke Guo of Qi said angrily: "Stop!"

Before he finished speaking, Mrs.

Guo stopped her with distress: "The child has come back, why do you still scold him?

It seems we are at fault for this matter."

When she said this, Qi Guogong said: Not a single word could come out.

Indeed, if they had not asked Director Guo to participate in such a competition, Director Guo would not have fallen to this point.

His son's current depression is also very different from theirs.

As parents, they always take all the blame on themselves.

At this time, both Mrs.

Guo and Duke Qi felt very guilty and could not blame him too much.

They could only let Director Guo leave like this.

Li Weiyang went back and thought about it all night, and felt more and more that something was wrong about the matter.

She thought about it and decided to ask Director Guo to clarify the matter.

So, early the next morning, she was ready to go find Director Guo.

Unexpectedly, just as she walked to the garden, she almost bumped into someone walking on the bridge.

She stopped, but couldn't help but be surprised.

The person in front of her was Director Guo, but his expression and clothes were very strange.

In the past, Director Guo paid great attention to appearance and his hair was meticulous, but now, there are a few strands of hair hanging on his forehead, faintly connected to his long eyebrows.

His eyes were slanted like peach blossoms, with a decadent edge.

Although it was spring at this time, the weather was still a bit cool, but Director Guo in front of him was only wearing a light and soft robe with fluttering sleeves, and he really looked like a nobleman.

What's more, Director Guo's face was actually a little red, and he looked very happy, as if he was drunk.

But did you drink early in the morning?

Or are you still awake from yesterday’s drink?

Li Weiyang was surprised and said: "Fifth brother, what's wrong with you?"

Director Guo burst out laughing instead.

He stepped forward, grabbed Li Weiyang's sleeve, and then asked with a smile: "Jia'er, why are you here?

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

I thought you hated me."

Li Weiyang frowned slightly, confused by his inexplicable question.

When Director Guo saw her displeasure, he seemed to feel a little more awake.

He immediately lowered his eyelids, and his long and thick eyelashes covered his eyes, covering up his slightly crazy eyes.

Li Weiyang also When she wanted to ask something, Director Guo immediately let her go.

A bit of sadness appeared on his face.

He smiled slightly and said, "It's time for me to go."

After saying this, he suddenly walked past Li Weiyang lightly. .

At this time, the Guo brothers who were also worried about Director Guo also came together.

Seeing Director Guo's appearance, they quickly went up to stop him.

Director Guo just pushed Guo Dun away and said coldly: "Go away."

Guo Dun's face was startled, and he rushed forward to stop Director Guo.

The soft silk was twisted and deformed under his fingers: "What's going on with you?

If you feel unhappy, let's have a fight."

This is the habit of the Guo brothers.

Ways to solve problems.

At this moment, Li Weiyang noticed something was wrong, and she quickly said: "Fourth brother, let fifth brother go."

Guo Dun looked at Li Weiyang with a very surprised expression.

Li Weiyang gently shook his head at him.

Guo Dun frowned tightly, but still obediently stepped aside.

Guo Cheng had already noticed something was wrong.

He watched Director Guo leave and turned to Li Weiyang, "What's going on?"

A cold light appeared in Li Weiyang's eyes.

She turned around suddenly and looked at the attendant who had been following Director Guo but was timidly preparing to escape from her.

She said in a cold voice: "What are you doing, Fifth Young Master?"

As if he had made a big mistake, the attendant fell to his knees on the ground with a plop.

"My lord, my lord," he didn't finish his words, but big beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

Li Weiyang's eyes darkened slightly, and her voice suddenly became cold: "Explain clearly."

The man lowered his head and said word by word: "Young master is on vacation."

Guo Cheng's expression suddenly changed.

He quickly walked up and grabbed the man's collar, his knuckles turned white.

He said angrily: "Say what you just said again."

The man lowered his head, but his clothes were wet with cold sweat.

He shivered and said, "Young master took Xiaoyao Powder, so he was just taking Powder."

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Cheng slapped him hard in the face. , said sternly: "That's nonsense, how could fifth brother touch such dirty things?"

Li Weiyang was stunned when she heard this.

Then she looked at Guo Dun and saw that her fourth brother had a very strange look on her face.

She couldn't help but ask: "What does Xingsan mean and what does Xiaoyaosan mean?"

Guo Dun didn't speak, but just stared at the attendant with fire in his eyes.

Guo Cheng abandoned the attendant and tried to calm down, "This Xiaoyao Powder was originally invented by the miracle doctor of the previous dynasty to treat typhoid fever, but later people discovered its wonders and felt great after taking it."

Open, I won't be tied down by the mortal world, I feel like I have ascended to the fairy world, and I have nothing to worry about anymore.

So when I arrived at the time of the late emperor, Many famous nobles loved it.

Xiaoyao Sanhaosheng was popular for a while.

Such a wonderful elixir was very dangerous to take.

After taking it, you must eat cold food, drink hot wine, wear thin clothes, and move around quickly.

To dissipate the heat from your body, you must not stop, otherwise your life will be in danger, so people call this behavior "Xing San".

Li Weiyang frowned, and she said: "If you can forget your worries and be in a fairyland, it's no wonder that Fifth Brother takes Xiaoyaosan."

But Guo Cheng suddenly cut off her words and said: "No, this thing is absolutely inedible.

People who take Xiaoyaosan will become addicted over time, and this addiction cannot be kicked off.

Over time, people will gradually lose weight." , until he died as thin as a bone, the fifth brother knew clearly, how could he be so confused?"

Li Weiyang's expression changed.

She didn't expect Xiaoyao Powder to be so terrifying, but she heard Guo Dun next to her continue: "It's because Xiaoyao Powder has so many harmful effects that it was banned by the late emperor.

I originally thought that this thing would never appear in Yuexi again, but I didn’t expect that my fifth brother is now taking this Xiaoyaosan.”

When Li Weiyang heard what they said, her heart sank, she frowned and said, "Did you just say that this medicine is a banned drug?"

Guo Dun nodded and said: "Yes, if others know that fifth brother is taking this medicine, I'm afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Weiyang already understood that taking medicine banned by the royal family was a major crime of disobedience.

What's more, even if the harm of the medicine itself is not discovered by others, it must not be taken.

Why did Director Guo do such a confused thing?

thing Guo Cheng took a deep breath, looked at Li Weiyang and said: "We must have a good talk with him."

Li Weiyang nodded lightly.

She vaguely felt that there seemed to be a hand behind her to promote the development of all this.

Li Weiyang entered Director Guo's study and saw a paperweight next to the desk with a stack of rice paper underneath.

She took out the rice paper and flipped through it, looking at it very carefully.

Director Guo's painting skills are exquisite, and the lines are even more beautiful.

The women depicted in black ink may have expressions that are cold, lazy, carefree, elegant, graceful, or graceful.

They are all charming, graceful, and graceful.

With just a few strokes, her expression was vividly outlined.

Li Weiyang was stunned.

Although she was not a very good painter, she did not know how to paint at all.

Although the painter's skill was extremely proficient, looking at his feelings for the person in the painting, it seemed that It’s also full of love and affection.

If not, how could one use a paintbrush to vividly display the beauty of this woman.

The servants waiting in the study lowered their heads, not daring to look at the young master of the Guo family.

The fifth young master always painted day and night, as if he was possessed by a man, but he didn't know what he was painting.

Guo Dun next to him took a look and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Little sister, isn't this you?"

Then he couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Why did fifth brother draw so many portraits of you?"

He was careless, but didn't think much about it. .

Guo Cheng next to him sighed slightly and said in a tight voice: "Fourth brother, you" are really dumbfounded.

Li Weiyang was stunned for a long time, but finally smiled softly, as if he had not seen the paintings, and was ready to put them back in place.

But at this time, Director Guo had finished his tour.

Hearing that they were here, he hurried in.

When he saw the rice paper in Li Weiyang's hand, his face turned ashen.

Before Li Weiyang had time to explain, Guo Cheng had already said: "Little sister, please persuade the fifth brother, let's go."

After saying that, he had already walked out with Guo Dun who was inexplicable, and ordered the people in the study to The attendant also left.

Guo Dun said quickly: "Hey, third brother, don't pull me away.

I have something else to say to fifth brother."

Before he could finish his words, Guo Cheng had already pulled him out, and then closed the door with a bang. .

Director Guo's face was uglier than ever before, but Li Weiyang looked at him with a calm gaze, as if he had not discovered the secret he had hidden in his heart.

Director Guo's eyes fell on Li Weiyang.

He felt his throat was hoarse, but he didn't know what to say until he heard Li Weiyang's soft voice: "I know, Fifth Brother has always liked me, right."

Director Guo looked at her blankly, his face suddenly turned pale, Li Weiyang said seriously: "I just ask you, yes or no."

The room was very quiet, except for the breathing of two people, which was very light and extremely calm.

Director Guo didn't speak for a long time.

Finally, he mustered up all the courage to look at her, his voice already cold: "It's just me being sentimental, so what?

Just pretend you don't know."

Li Weiyang smiled, but said sincerely: "Thank you very much."

Director Guo was stunned and almost speechless.

Li Weiyang's smile was as calm as usual.

She looked at Director Guo and said: "Actually, the reason why you haven't said anything is because you are afraid that we can't live in peace and harmony like we do now.

Isn't it true that you are special to me?

I have been able to see it a long time ago.

Come out, this kind of thing can never be hidden, but I know, Fifth Brother He is an upright person, and he will figure it out sooner or later.

If I am your sweetheart, one day this relationship will fade away, cool down, and become ugly.

But if I have always been your sister, then we will.

We will always be together, family love cannot be separated under any circumstances, don’t you think so?”

Director Guo wanted to open his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

He looked at Li Weiyang blankly.

She said all this frankly in front of him.

Why did the other party not care at all when the things he had tried so hard to hide were exposed?

He couldn't tell whether he should be disappointed or sad.

He looked at her steadily, and for a moment, he understood.

Originally discovered by her suddenly, he felt as if he had fallen under a cliff.

At that moment, he couldn't think, couldn't speak, and even forgot to breathe.

A certain voice said in the bottom of my heart: You must hide it.

If she finds out, she will only get deep disgust.

But another voice was in my ear, saying generally: Why can't you let her know that you are not painting her portrait day and night?

If she knows, maybe He clenched and unclenched his hands, and then clenched them again, but he still couldn't contain the trembling that came from his soul.

Finally, he laughed, his slanted eyebrows raised slightly.

He had always been afraid that Li Weiyang would know, just because he was worried about destroying this harmonious atmosphere.

Now Li Weiyang knew what he was thinking, but he didn't care at all.

There is only one reason for this: he really can't get into her heart.

In the past, the more he hid it, the more uncomfortable he felt, but now that he had spoken out and been seen through by the other party, he felt a sense of relief.

There was no tension in his heart just now, but there was something missing: "I thought you would blame me.

Me, or scold me angrily, isn’t this what ordinary women would do to treat those young people who covet you?”

"Fifth brother is my relative.

I'm very happy that you like me.

Why should I blame you for treating others the same way?"

Li Weiyang smiled softly, "Also, these paintings are very good.

Do you know if you can give it to me?”

Director Guo smiled again, and something was slowly melting in his smile.

Li Weiyang's voice was filled with a sigh, "No one has painted me so beautifully, Fifth Brother won't be reluctant to part with it, right?"

Director Guo waved his hand and said generously: "If you like it, take them all."

Li Weiyang looked at him and just smiled.

In fact, she breathed a long sigh of relief.

Only when she could untie Director Guo's knot could she continue.

Then she said seriously: "Fifth brother, what happened yesterday?"

What's the matter?"

Director Guo seemed to have expected that she would ask this question.

He looked at her quietly and did not speak for a moment.

Li Weiyang looked at him and said quietly: "I believe that Fifth Brother is an extremely smart person.

You’ve long known the dangers of Xiaoyaosan, and you wouldn’t take the initiative to touch it.”

Director Guo's eyes suddenly brightened.

He looked at Li Weiyang and said, "Do you believe me?

Do you really believe me?"

Li Weiyang nodded and said: "Fifth brother has a delicate mind and will not be confused.

In addition, you are definitely not the kind of person who makes mother worry, so I feel very strange no matter how I think about it.

Yesterday, because of my father's rage, you It’s inconvenient to explain, but what can’t we discuss now?”

Director Guo sighed and said loudly: "The three of us used to eavesdrop on my father.

Why are you using this trick against me?

Stop eavesdropping and come out."

The window opened with a whoosh.

Li Weiyang was slightly surprised, but when he saw the faces of Guo Dun and Guo Cheng, Guo Dun said nonchalantly: "Don't we care about you?"

As he said that, the two people came out of the window one after another.

Jumped in, Director Guo sighed and said, "I wanted to tell you about this yesterday, but I was afraid that my mother would be worried, so I didn't."

Seeing his strange look, Guo Cheng immediately said: "Now there are just a few of us.

You can talk about everything.

We will help you bear it together."

Director Guo finally nodded and said: "Actually, I have always suspected that the Pei family was responsible for what happened last time, so I made an appointment with Chen Hanxuan to have a secret talk with him, but I don't know what happened.

He was kidnapped inexplicably.

None of the guards disappeared during those three days. , I was dizzy all day long.

I only knew that someone had force-fed drugs, but I didn’t know what it was.

When I woke up, I found that I was already in the tavern.

After I came back, I carefully studied the drugs on my clothes. powder, only to find out that the thing was Xiaoyao Powder.”

After he finished speaking, he heard Guo Dun banging a hole on the table: "These people from the Chen family are really hateful."

The other three people all looked at him with hatred.

Guo Dun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Why do you still think this matter has nothing to do with the Chen family?"

Director Guo immediately said: "Of course it has nothing to do with it.

Chen Hanxuan didn't come at all, so I suspect that someone had already planned this and deliberately lured me into contracting Xiaoyaosan."

Li Weiyang looked at Director Guo and sighed softly: "Fifth brother knows it clearly, but why do you still want to touch that Xiaoyaosan?"

Director Guo did not speak, but his eyes were deep.

Guo Cheng gritted his teeth and said: "Once you touch this kind of thing, you will become addicted.

If you want to quit, it will be worse than death.

There was once someone who wanted to quit Xiaoyaosan.

He even wanted to cut off his own head, and in the end he went crazy.

To death, you said that the person behind this Yan Bu Serenity has really vicious thoughts.

If he doesn't kill the fifth brother, he is definitely not showing mercy, but wants to completely destroy him."
