Ten days were spent in anxiety, and Mrs.
Guo always felt uneasy day and night.
Seeing this, Li Weiyang suggested that she go to Tzu Chi Temple to offer incense.
Mrs.
Guo readily agreed and took her two daughters-in-law with her.
The Guo family's carriage set off before dawn and arrived at Tzu Chi Temple on the outskirts of the city.
Arriving at the main hall, Li Weiyang still only saw Mrs.
Guo's frowning look, and couldn't help but comfort her: "Mother, my second brother will be fine.
Don't worry too much."
Mrs.
Guo nodded, but her expression did not relax at all.
At this time, Chen Bingbing next to her also looked worried.
Holding the incense tightly in her hand, she knelt down devoutly and kowtowed three times to the Bodhisattva.
Then she straightened up, murmured to herself, and prayed for Guo Yan very seriously.
Over the past few days, everyone in the Guo family has been restless day and night, fearful all day long, so much so that they have no intention of eating.
When Mrs.
Guo went to draw lots to ask about fortunes, Li Weiyang frowned.
If the problem could be solved by burning incense and hugging the Buddha's feet, then why would she, Li Weiyang, bother to take revenge?
Let an unbelieving person Isn’t it a big joke for Buddhists to worship Buddha here?
She thought for a moment, then asked the young monk: "Is there any good scenery in this Ciji Temple for me to visit?"
The young monk rolled his eyes and immediately said: "Our Ciji Temple has always been very prosperous.
There is also a large garden at the back, where many exotic flowers and plants are planted as gifts from dignitaries.
Every time there are female relatives coming, If you like to sit in the garden, if you don't mind, you can go and enjoy the scenery.
I will naturally report it to you after Mrs.
Guo and the young lady have finished offering the incense."
Li Weiyang smiled lightly: "Thank you very much."
Along the way, I actually saw many young ladies in groups, some of whom were familiar faces.
The strange thing was that these people were all in a hurry, heading in the same direction.
Li Weiyang looked at Zhao Yue and said with a smile: "It seems that something grand happened in this temple today."
Zhao Yue couldn't help but wonder: "How can a monk's temple have such a grand event?
What the lady said is too strange."
Li Weiyang pointed at the female pilgrims who were heading southeast in a hurry, and smiled: "You didn't see that all of them looked in a hurry, as if they couldn't wait to do something.
Is there anyone in this monk temple who can attract young girls?
When Li Weiyang rarely teases others, Zhao Yue glanced at Li Weiyang and said curiously: "The young lady doesn't seem to be worried about the second young master."
Li Weiyang said with a faint smile: "Can worrying solve the problem?
If not, what's the use of worrying?"
Zhao Yue looked at Li Weiyang and became more and more confused: "Miss, the master invited you here, but he didn't show up.
What does it mean?"
Li Weiyang did not answer, but just pointed to the front and said: "Let's go over there and take a look, to see what kind of person it is that attracts so many rich ladies who come to worship Buddha."
Zhao Yue nodded and followed Li Weiyang.
Just after turning around the corridor, she saw an open stream in front of her.
Before she even got close, she could feel the coolness of the water splashing against her face.
There is a huge bluestone on the edge of the stream.
On it is a young man, wearing elegant white clothes, sitting on the ground.
There are no other accessories on his clothes, only ink poems are embroidered on them.

From a distance, he looks like a dragon rising and a phoenix rising.
His face is handsome, and he has fascinated many women with his every glance and smile.
In the reflection of the green water, his long silky hair is just hanging gently like this, and his plain white clothes are reflected in the green water and red flowers.
It turned into a bright color.
Li Weiyang smiled softly.
She had just met this person not long ago.
He was Pei Bi, the eldest son of the Pei family.
It's just that white is originally a symbol of purity, but it looks unusually abrupt when it appears in such a colorful garden.
In the past, Pei Bi gave people the impression of being elegant and restrained, but today he has a wild and uninhibited feeling, which is completely different from the past.
But why is Pei Bi here?
Li Weiyang glanced lightly and saw eighteen people not far from Pei Bi.
They were divided into groups of three and sat in front of six chess games.
The six chess sets formed a circle from all sides, exactly surrounding Pei Bi in the middle.
At this time, Li Weiyang saw a familiar person.
She couldn't help but look sideways and said: "Why is Miss Wang here?"
Miss Wang was startled.
She turned around and saw Li Weiyang, and her face suddenly showed a somewhat embarrassed look.
That time she was instigated by Pei Baoer to see if Li Weiyang was really in the tent, but she was embarrassed.
When I saw the other party at this moment, I couldn't help but smile a little bit: "Oh, it turns out to be Miss Guo, didn't you know that a blind chess competition is going to be held here?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Li Weiyang's face: "Why, the blind chess competition is really an anecdote.
I have never heard of it."
Miss Wang finally regained her composure, smiled calmly, pointed at the eighteen people opposite Pei Bi and said: "Look at those people, they are all famous and distinguished nobles in the capital.
They have only one common characteristic, that is, they are smart.
As we all know, the eldest son of the Pei family is the best in the capital, but he never shows off his chess skills easily.
Today, eighteen people finally invited Mr.
Pei to test him in public. chess skills."
Li Weiyang laughed: "Are you saying that Pei Bi will use one person to fight against eighteen chess players?"
Miss Wang nodded, with admiration on her face: "Yes, it's not just a confrontation.
Eighteen challengers, in groups of three, play six chess games.
They make moves in sequence according to the order of the chess games.
Mr.
Pei has to fight in each chess game.
Having been hit by a move, he not only has to remember his own move position, but also other people's moves.
Not only does it make memory much more difficult, Mr.
Pei does not have a chess game in front of him, and he will not look at the opponent's chess game.
Everything has to be reported by the chess players at the front of each chess game to tell them the status of the pieces on each chess board.
Mr.
Pei.
Then he makes moves one by one, do you think this is very powerful?"
Li Weiyang nodded: "It is indeed very powerful."
In fact, Li Weiyang has seen people play blind chess.
In her impression, the best chess players can only play two or three games of blind chess at the same time.
Once they start playing blind chess, His chess skills will be reduced, but Pei Bi has to play six games at the same time.
For him, he not only has to remember his exit in each game, but also the general direction of all the chess boards before he can continue.
Go down.

Sure enough, he was a master.
Li Weiyang smiled and was noncommittal.
At this moment, Pei Bi saw her and said with a gentle smile: "It turns out to be Miss Guo."
Everyone's eyes fell on Li Weiyang.
Li Weiyang was wearing a sea-blue skirt.
She had clear eyes and a delicate face.
She looked extremely elegant and beautiful.
She smiled slightly and looked at Pei Bi.
To be kind: "Master Pei is so elegant."
Pei Bi smiled calmly, and there was no trace of resentment toward Li Weiyang from his expression.
Although everyone knew that Pei Hui died miserably, in everyone's eyes, Pei Hui just brought the blame on himself, and all this had nothing to do with Miss Guo. of Therefore, they didn't notice that a glimmer of light flashed in Pei Bi's eyes.
He laughed softly and said in a gentle voice: "I heard that Miss Guo is also a master of chess.
I wonder if you are willing to play this game with me."
Li Weiyang looked at a chessboard not far away with a half-smile on her face: "Did Mr.
Pei invite me to play against these eighteen chess masters?"
Pei Bi nodded, his face calm: "Why does Miss Guo feel embarrassed?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Li Weiyang, and there was a complex search in his eyes.
A young man in Tsing Yi in the crowd said: "Hey, Mr.
Pei, why did you ask Miss Guo to be your helper for no reason?
I have never been there before.
I’ve seen her playing chess in public.”
Li Weiyang smiled, his voice indifferent: "Maybe it's because Mr.
Pei doesn't have the confidence to win," Pei Bi nodded and said honestly: "It is naturally difficult for me to fight against eighteen chess players with my own strength.
If I can get the help of Miss Guo, winning the game will be just around the corner."
After Li Weiyang thought for a while, she guessed that Pei Bi wanted to use the chessboard to further interpret her personality and temperament.
She looked over, and their eyes met, but they only understood each other tacitly.
Pei Bi was respectful and polite: "I don't know what Miss Guo wants."
If you refuse, it will appear unkind and petty.
Li Weiyang smiled slightly: "Since Mr.
Pei invites you kindly, why should I refuse?"
Others were extremely surprised when they saw Li Weiyang agreeing.
Miss Wang quickly grabbed Li Weiyang and said: "Miss Guo, if you are not confident in your chess skills, please do not agree."
Playing chess together is actually more difficult than traditional blind chess, because the two of them play chess one after another.
Not only must you remember your own chess game, but you must also remember the opponent's chess moves.
If you can really continue to play this chess game, it will be amazing.
But Pei Bi is a first-class chess master.
If he loses in the end, everyone will think it is Li Weiyang's fault.
Pei Bi seemed to have expected that Li Weiyang would agree, and said happily: "In that case, please make moves according to each chess game.
I will make the move first, you will make the move next, and then Miss Guo will make the move.
Take turns in this way, everyone.
What do you think?”
Those people were originally eighteen enemies to one and could not win without force.
When they heard this situation, they couldn't help but nod their heads.
But some onlookers whispered, "Is this Guo Jia crazy?
She is trying to do everything in front of so many experts, most of whom are first-rate chess players.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Is she so confident in her own chess skills?"
Ms.
Zhou from the Wailang Mansion, a member of the Criminal Department, replied: "You know how she is so famous that she can play chess with Mr.
Pei, even if her chess skills are not very good, she can become famous."
Miss Gao from the Changping Marquis Mansion smiled and said: "Yes, this Miss Guo is really shameless.
Does she really think that her chess skills can compete with so many masters?
As the saying goes, an expert will know when he makes a move.
If you make a stupid move, you don't want to laugh at others.
Even if Mr.
Pei loses, it can be said that Guo Jia's chess skills are not good, and she has miscalculated. " "It's just that I've never heard that she has any skills that she can use.
She must be too anxious this time."
No matter what outsiders say, Li Weiyang always has a warm smile on his face.
In this way, the two versus eighteen battle began.
Li Weiyang and Pei Bi did not look at the chessboard, but only listened to the reporter next to the chessboard reporting other people's chess moves, and then they took action step by step.
Everyone was originally waiting for Li Weiyang to make a fool of himself, but after two rounds, everyone's expressions changed.
Although Pei Bi was a master of chess, they did not expect that Li Weiyang was not bad at all, pressing forward step by step.
The announcer from the third group loudly said: "Rook two goes into four."
Li Weiyang lifted her long eyelashes, revealing her black and white eyes, and said loudly: "This move is wrong."
Everyone looked at her with strange expressions for a moment.
The reporter asked: "What's wrong?"
Li Weiyang recalled: "I remember that the situation on the chessboard was not like this just now.
It seemed that someone made an extra move."
As soon as she said this, the opponent's chess players immediately exploded.
Wang Guang, the second son of General Zhendong, glanced at Li Weiyang and couldn't help but sneered: "If you can't pick up the chess game, we will forgive you.
Just apologize and stand down.
Don't try to make a fool of yourself here."
Wang Guang Guangwei has always been easy-going, but every time he plays chess, he has no emotions.
He doesn't care how powerful the Guo family is in front of him or how delicate Li Weiyang is.
If he can't play chess, he will get out.
Li Weiyang smiled and was not angry.
He just closed his eyes and thought for a moment.
Then he dismembered the chess moves of Pei Bi, himself and the other party more than ten times in a blind chess situation.
At this time, everyone's expressions changed. .
Wang Guang was even more surprised.
He looked at Li Weiyang and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Li Weiyang looked humble: "I saw that the three of you just made the decision after repeated discussions.
They may have been too focused on it to notice that their companions have made a move, so one of the three of you must have taken an extra step inadvertently.
Please tell this One move back.”
A person plays six games of chess at the same time.
He can't even see the trend on the chessboard, but he can accurately tell the trend of the first dozen moves and analyze the opponent's flaws.
This is simply miraculous.
Wang Guang's mouth can already stuff an egg.
Got it Pei Bi smiled softly, with a hint of appreciation on his face.
Although the other party was his opponent, he had to admit that he felt very proud to have such an opponent.
When the announcer reported the fourth game to Pei Bi, Pei Bi frowned and said, "Did you just say that the red square cannon tied four to seven?"

The chess announcer nodded: "Yes, that's the case.
Please ask Mr.
Pei to make a move."
Pei Bi glanced at him and shook his head: "What you reported was wrong.
It was not that four cannons equaled seven, but three cannons equaled seven."
The chess player was stunned, and then looked at the chess board next to him.
The young Marquis of Changping Marquis Mansion was also sitting next to this chess board.
He immediately said loudly: "What I said to Mr.
Pei is exactly Pao San Ping Qi. .Brother Zhao, you made the mistake."
Zhao Sheng is a chess enthusiast.
Although he is not good at chess, he is very fascinated by chess.
He did not expect that he was too nervous just now and reported the wrong chess board.
Pei Bi reacted immediately and corrected him in time.
The mistake in reporting the chess game showed that Pei Bi knew the chess game very well.
Zhao Sheng couldn't help but sweat all over his head.
He would report errors when standing next to the chessboard.
The opponent could remember every move on the chessboard without even looking at it.
This memory is really amazing.
In the next round, it was Li Weiyang again.
At this time, the situation of the sixth game was not good.
After repeated research, the three people believed that there was no hope for their side to win.
However, they did not see any amazing moves from Li Weiyang and Pei Bi.
After discussion, , they proposed a draw.
Hearing this, Li Weiyang just smiled lightly and said: "You can't make this move in the last three moves.
Why should I agree to a draw?"
The other party was furious: "Then what tricks do you have to defeat us?
If not, don't talk nonsense and just make a draw."
Li Weiyang smiled very gently, but said calmly: "One shot into three, I'm sorry everyone, I won."
The three people took one look at the chess game and were stunned as if struck by lightning.
Li Weiyang has not watched their chess games.
She relies not only on memory, but also on mental arithmetic.
When playing blind chess, all she thinks about are virtual boards, and there are six games at a time, but she has no idea about each game.
The calculations are all so profound, and only after careful study can one make the move.
Even if they can't take more than three steps, they know very well that such memory and mental arithmetic ability are really terrifying.
Pei Bi smiled, such scheming, such resourcefulness, all hidden behind such a pair of eyes, gentle, but cunning.
Li Weiyang's greatest advantage is not intelligence, but a deep observation of people and things, making it impossible for anyone to What tricks can be played around her?
At the same time, she also has a strong ability to control the overall situation.
Every time she is forced into a critical moment by the chess game, she is able to stay calm and defeat her opponent easily.
Li Weiyang turned his head and glanced at Pei Bi at the same time.
Under the gentle surface of the other party, he had a very cruel heart towards the enemy.
Even if he suffered a blow, he could quickly recover.
No matter what the situation, he could stay awake. , The plan is calculated step by step, and his heart can be killed.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was a bit of tacit understanding.
In less than two hours, all six games of chess were played, and they were all wins.
Everyone looked at it, sighed, and clapped their hands.

Miss Wang stepped forward and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Miss Guo to have such a high level of chess skills.
It's really admirable."
Li Weiyang smiled softly, with clear eyes: "This is all thanks to Mr.
Pei.
If it weren't for him, it would be difficult for me to support the overall situation by myself."
Pei Bi thought to himself, I just deliberately made a blind move to test, but you were able to save the chess game one by one at the critical moment.
This kind of effort is really admirable and terrifying.
If possible, I don't want to be your enemy, but You killed my brother.
This is a blood feud.
We are destined to fight to the death.
He stood up, bowed his head to Li Weiyang and said solemnly: "From now on, I will give the title of number one chess player to Miss Guo."
Li Weiyang looked at him with an unmoving expression: "Young Master Pei is a great compliment.
I don't have the ability to accept the title of No. 1 chess player."
Pei Bi smiled and was noncommittal.
At this moment, the little monk ran over quickly, sweating profusely and said to Li Weiyang: "Miss Guo, Mrs.
Guo is going back soon, and she asked me to come find you."
Li Weiyang nodded, gave an indifferent salute to Pei Bi, and said: "Mr.
Pei, farewell."
Pei Bi had a smile on his face and was gentle and approachable: "In that case, I will send Miss Guo out."
He accompanied Li Weiyang until he reached the garden gate.
Li Weiyang suddenly stopped and looked back at Pei Bi, half-smiling but not smiling: "I thought Mr.
Pei wanted to kill me as soon as he saw me, but I didn't expect you to have such thoughts to play against me."
Pei Bi smiled as usual: "People have to experience a lot of dissatisfaction in this life, from the emperor to the common people, without exception.
There are many reasons for Pei Hui's death, and many times it is caused by others.
For example, Miss Guo, you don't You are willing to be the enemy of the Pei family, but your stance means that only one of the Guo family and the Pei family will survive.
You are like this, and so am I.
You should also understand my thoughts."
Li Weiyang smiled.
As the chess game began today, she became increasingly unable to see through the young master Pei in front of her.
She became more vigilant and said with a calm expression on her face: "We are at the door now.
Mr.
Pei, please stay."
Pei Bi smiled slightly and saluted Li Weiyang respectfully: "Miss, go slowly."
Li Weiyang walked out quickly, Zhao Yue looked back at Pei Bi from time to time, with lingering fear: "Miss, I really don't understand why you want to play this chess game with Mr.
Pei, and you still help him deal with the eighteen masters. " Li Weiyang's eyebrows were calm and he answered the question: "This eldest son of the Pei family is a very interesting person, don't you think?"
Zhao Yue tilted her head and thought for a long time, but she didn't understand it anyway.
Li Weiyang actually stretched out her finger and tapped her head, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's almost time, we should go back early."
"But miss, doesn't the master want to meet you?
Let's go now."
Zhao Yue was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, but Li Weiyang smiled mysteriously and walked away.
Mrs.
Guo and the two young ladies were already waiting for Li Weiyang on the carriage.
Seeing her coming, Mrs.
Guo nodded to her and ordered the coachman to go back as usual.
The carriage drove for another two hours before returning to Guo's house.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
It was already dark at this time, and Mrs.
Guo led them all the way into the hall.
As soon as she entered the door, she took off her outer cloak and immediately ordered all the maids serving in the hall to retreat.
Duke Guo of Qi and Princess Chen Liu were sitting in the hall drinking tea, while Guo Cheng and Guo Dun were chatting with them.
Seeing Mrs.
Guo dismissing her maid, Princess Chen Liu couldn't help but look sideways.
Duke Guo of Qi looked behind Mrs.
Guo subconsciously, and was stunned for a moment.
When he came to his senses, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
He quickly stood up and said sternly: "You still don't kneel down, don't you?"
When the attendant in green who had been behind Mrs.
Guo heard these words, he fell to his knees with a plop and said with a heavy face: "Guo Yan has seen his grandmother and his father."
Li Weiyang smiled slightly.
He had gained a lot from his trip today.
The purpose was not only to offer incense and pray for blessings, but more importantly, to bring Guo Yan back to the Guo Mansion.
In fact, when Guo Yan first arrived in Dadu, Yuan Lie got the news.
He secretly sent the letter to Li Weiyang, and Li Weiyang decided to tell Mrs.
Guo about the matter.
Then they made a plan to use it to In the name of incense, I went to Ciji Temple to bring Guo Yan back.
However, Li Weiyang did not expect that Pei Bi was also in the garden.
She didn't want the other party to discover Guo Yan's existence, so she deliberately used that chess game to attract everyone's attention.
However, Duke Guo of Qi did not feel any joy at meeting again after a long separation.
His face was full of anger and he scolded: "You still have the nerve to come back?"
Guo Yan raised his head.
His appearance was most similar to that of Duke Qi when he was young.
His eyes were as black as ink.
They were long and shaped like a deep pool of water.
His sword-shaped eyebrows were very heroic, and there was a shallow beauty groove in the middle of his chin. , even more handsome and handsome, coupled with the heroic spirit of a Confucian general.
Among the five sons of the Guo family, not even the suave Director Guo can compare with his charisma.
Li Weiyang looked at him and couldn't help but sigh.
With such an appearance and such magnanimity, it's no wonder that Chen Bingbing has always admired him and wanted to marry him at all costs.
No wonder, Nalan Xue still misses him to this day.
There is a kind of power in Guo Yan that stabilizes people's hearts and makes people feel inexplicably moved.
This kind of thing is exactly what the romantic young man does not possess.
Guo Yan said in a deep voice: "My son is wrong, and he is willing to be punished, but please listen to my explanation."
Before he could finish his words, Qi Guogong had already slammed a cup of hot tea over, and the tea cup suddenly hit the ground.
When the tea cup fell to the ground, there was a bloody gash on his forehead.
Guo Yan lowered his head without even making a sound.
Chen Bingbing already looked very heartbroken.
She quickly stepped forward, knelt down in front of Duke Qi, and said in a trembling voice: "Father, no matter what my husband has done wrong, please listen to his explanation.
He must have his own reasons."
Duke Guo of Qi said angrily: "What's wrong with him?
Guo Yan, even if you lost four battles, you still can't kill the general.
Do you know what a serious crime this is?
Not to mention that you want to leave the camp with your own troops.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
This is enough to show that you If you have rebellious intentions, are you still the son of my Guo family?
How dare you come back openly?
Do you have any brains?"
Guo Yan listened to his father's scolding silently, but his body was shaking violently and he could hardly speak a word.
Duke Qi's words seemed like a whip hitting his heart again and again, so he couldn't say a word to refute.
No one in the entire hall dared to speak.
The silence was so empty that it was shocking.
Guo Yan knelt straight, feeling aggrieved, angry, and mixed with all kinds of emotions.
He couldn't help crying.
He suddenly and violently cried out.
Kowtowed on the ground , said loudly: "Father, if you still think that I deserve to die after listening to what my son said, I would rather commit suicide here."
His voice was extremely sad, as if he was desperate, and Li Weiyang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart after listening to it. .
Duke Guo of Qi has been sitting dumbly, his forehead beating constantly, almost suppressing his anger.
He is not willing to listen to what Guo Yan has to say.
He just hates his son for putting the whole family in such a desperate situation.
Chen Liu The princess quickly persuaded him: "If you have anything to do, just listen to what he has to say.
It's not too late to get angry again."
Guo Cheng was anxious at the side: "Father, after you listen to what the second brother has to say, it's not too late to make a decision."
Guo Dun also had tears in his eyes, wanting to persuade but didn't dare.
Qi Guogong suppressed his impulse and said word by word: "If I really don't want to hear his explanation, why should I admit him into this door?
I would have beaten him out when he stepped into the hall.
No, I should have tied him to the Golden Palace." , to atone for the sins of my Guo family, so that the whole family will not be implicated by him."
Guo Yan gritted his teeth and finally suppressed the pain in his heart.
He paused and said: "Then Zhao Zong is a nuisance to the public and harms the virtuous.
He is jealous of talented people.
Previously, your majesty asked me to assist him in attacking Hehe, but he can neither predict the enemy nor be stubborn.
No He was willing to listen to my suggestions, so that he suffered successive setbacks and was defeated one by one by Hehe generals.
He failed in all the four battles of Songgang, Xiazhai, Chu'an and Changping.
Even he himself was captured by Hehe.
In order to save him, I led the army.
The army made a surprise attack on the enemy army overnight camp, but after rescuing him, instead of being grateful, he blamed me for not listening to his orders, which was the reason for the failure of four battles.
In fact, he never listened to my suggestions, and sent me into the camp every time.
On the other hand, he put all the blame on me.
If it was just that, he didn't stop because of this.
In order to cover up, he actually sent people into the military tent overnight to kill me.
If I didn't wake up in time, , now there is no life left.”
When everyone heard this, their expressions suddenly changed.
Duke Guo of Qi said angrily: "Just because of this, you killed him."
Guo Yan shook his head heavily and said: "No, I didn't kill him.
In fact, I don't know how he died, so he was inexplicably framed for treason by killing the general."
Duke Guo of Qi looked at his son intently.
Based on his understanding of Guo Yan, he believed that the other party would not lie.
However, he still had to ask clearly about the matter: "But the people of the Zhao family said that you will bring your own 100,000 soldiers."
What’s going on if you want to leave the camp?”
Guo Yan clenched his fists and whispered: "My son has followed his father's teachings for many years and has never done anything rebellious.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Besides, it is impossible for me to mobilize troops without military symbols.
But they He kept saying that I killed Zhao Zong in order to steal the military talisman, and also said that the military talisman had been stolen by me.
He kidnapped me and took me to Beijing without even giving me a chance to defend myself.
Along the way, those people poisoned my food countless times and secretly sent people to kill me.
A deputy general is trying his best to protect me, and there is no way I can escape their surveillance and return to Dadu."
Li Weiyang frowned tightly and couldn't help being shocked by everything the other party said.
Guo Yan trembled all over and kowtowed to Duke Qi: "Father, this battle was not lost in our hands, it was actually in the hands of the coach.
But I was too incompetent and cowardly to find evidence of their crimes.
They made false accusations and it was my father who was embarrassed."
In fact, he had already noticed something was wrong with Zhao Zong, and had been secretly investigating Zhao Zong, and sent secret letters back to Dadu, but nothing happened.
Zhao Zong is the commander-in-chief, and everyone must obey his orders.
Even if Guo Yan has great hands and eyes, he must not disobey military orders in public.
And all the countless struggles he made were anticipated by Zhao Zong in advance.
Guo Yan even began to suspect that there was a spy around him, but before he could find out everything, it was already too late.
The other party's meticulous thinking and plan The meticulousness has reached its peak, leaving him unable to investigate or defend anything.
If he hadn't left a hidden stake in advance, he might have died on the road.
Duke Guo of Qi had already understood everything.
He looked at his son and remained silent for a long time.
Finally, he sighed and said, "I didn't expect that Zhao Zong would do such a thing."
In fact, Zhao Zong is a very prestigious veteran and is also trusted and respected by important officials in the court.
It's just that he has been an official for too long, and it is expected that he will be discharged and return to his hometown in two or three years to retire.
Perhaps it is because of this that he is so anxious to become famous before leaving the court that he is greedy for credit and rashly advances. , did not listen to the loyal advice, and suffered a lot.
According to his character, of course he was not willing to clear his name for many years and lose his name in one day, so he was unwilling to accept the punishment, so he put the blame on Guo Yan.
All this sounds very reasonable, but who killed Zhao Zong?
Why did the Zhao family and the generals keep testifying against Guo Yan?
Li Weiyang's mind kept spinning.
She always felt that the whole thing was fishy, but when she saw Mrs.
Guo's sad and angry look, she swallowed her words for a moment.
I'm afraid it's not suitable to say this in this situation.
After thinking for a moment, she said: "Father, mother, the current situation is not yet time for us to grieve.
In my opinion, the most important thing is to find a way to clear the wrongs of the second brother as soon as possible."
Guo Yan glanced at Li Weiyang.
He had already heard his mother say that this was his little sister.
At this moment, he looked at Li Weiyang seriously and said: "Sister, I'm afraid this matter is not simple.
I suspected Zhao Zong before and did something to him.
After many investigations, no matter how hard I checked, the Zhao family had wiped out all the evidence, as if they were prepared for it. " Li Weiyang had already anticipated this and sighed: "No matter how smart and cautious your second brother is, there is no way he can confront your commander in public."
Military orders are like mountains, and Guo Yan is just a deputy commander, so naturally he must obey all orders.
But the Zhao family was really too ruthless and did everything to the extreme.
They even thought of killing people to silence them, otherwise they would not have provoked such a big resistance from Guo Yan.
Chen Bingbing stood up slowly, glanced at everyone, and said worriedly: "Father, otherwise I will go back and report this matter to my father."
But Guo Yan immediately said: "It's inappropriate and I can't let anyone know about my return to Dadu."
Li Weiyang agreed very much: "That's right.
Second, we are at the forefront of the storm now.
We have no evidence to prove that Zhao Zong's death has nothing to do with my second brother.
Even if you tell Chen Shangshu, he will have no choice.

On the contrary, there will be one more person to worry about.
"In fact, what Li Weiyang thinks is that the fewer people know about this matter, the better.
Yuan Lie will not tell anyone about it.
Now it is only limited to the people in the hall.
If everyone can keep the secret, Guo Yan will be safer.
There are too many unstable factors in the Chen family.
Chen Bingbing thought of her reckless second brother and couldn't help but nodded.
Now she could no longer take care of Nalan Xue.
At this critical moment of life and death, what she cared about most was Guo Yan's safety.
Princess Chen Liu saw that Guo Yan was very thin.
It was obvious that he had suffered a lot along the way.
She couldn't help but shed tears.
She stepped forward and grabbed his arm and said, "My child, have a good rest at home.
We will definitely find a way."
Before she finished speaking, Qi Guogong shook his head and said: "No, no, no matter what, Guo Yan cannot stay in the Guo family."
Mrs.
Guo stood up from the chair with a bang: "What do you mean?
Isn't it okay for my son to hide at home if he has been wronged?"
Qi Guogong looked at her and immediately softened his expression: "I always feel that this matter is very strange.
Since Yan'er has escaped, the other party must know about it and will not let it go easily.
He will definitely find an opportunity to search the Guo family.
When the time comes, he will Very unsafe” Li Weiyang agreed with Qi Guogong's view.
She approached Mrs.
Guo and persuaded her softly: "Mother, what father said is not unreasonable.
This matter is basically a trap deliberately set by someone.
If the second brother stays here, I'm afraid it won't work."
Safety.
More importantly, once this matter gets out, everyone will suspect that we are harboring imperial prisoners.
At that time, even if the second brother is not guilty, he will be convicted, and the Guo family will face a greater crisis. " Mrs.
Guo didn't know this truth, but she couldn't let go of her son after all.
Guo Yan never thought about staying, but he had to come back to explain everything: "I came back this time just to tell my father what happened, and at the same time I will leave Dadu to find out about this matter."
Li Weiyang's expression changed slightly, and he frowned: "Second brother, what you said is wrong.
What you have to do now is to find a secret place to hide, instead of searching.
After all, the other party has set up such a trap to harm you.
The Guo family has been prepared for this.
As long as you die, you will be found guilty of murdering the coach and trying to escape with his troops.
Aren't you afraid of injuring your parents?
"?"
Guo Yan also knew this, but in his opinion, this was his unavoidable responsibility and he must bear it to the end.
He said solemnly: "I know what you mean, but if I don't go, who can investigate this matter?"
What's going on?"
At this time, Director Guo, who had been silent next to him, came out and said softly: "Second brother, let me handle this matter."
Mrs.
Guo immediately refused: "No, you are not in good health."
Director Guo smiled and said calmly: "Does my mother think that without my right hand, I am a waste?"

Mrs.
Guo's expression changed: "Of course I didn't mean that."
Director Guo's face was soft, and he obviously didn't care.
He looked at Qi Guogong with an unprecedented seriousness: "It is precisely because I am a useless person in the eyes of everyone at this moment.
I only want to relax when I leave Dadu, and travel around the mountains and rivers.
No one knows how to do it."
They are particularly focused on me, but if the third brother and the fourth brother leave Dadu, others will immediately think that you are going after the second brother. " By saying this, Director Guo was clearly trying to reassure everyone and did not want them to worry.
In fact, as soon as he leaves the capital, he will immediately attract the attention of all parties.
Even the people who are chasing him fall into silence when they look at him.
Li Weiyang glanced at Director Guo, and a thought came to his mind, and he whispered: "Are you sure, Fifth Brother?"
Director Guo's eyes were bright and gentle, but he shook his head: "I'm not sure.
This matter has been going on for a while, and the other party is very cunning and I guess he won't let me catch it easily, but I will try my best. ” Li Weiyang looked at him for a moment, Director Guo just smiled faintly, as if there was a light flashing between his eyebrows.
Li Weiyang already understood what he meant, and her heart moved.
She looked at Mrs.
Guo and said, "My mother can't bear to leave my fifth brother."
Of course Mrs.
Guo was reluctant to part with her youngest son who had lost his right hand, but Guo Yan was also her beloved son.
She sighed longly: "They are all my sons, what is there to be reluctant to part with?
No matter which one it is, I won't."
I hope something happens to them, but so far, your fifth brother is right, this is the best way.
"Leaving it to others may not be so dedicated.
Only your own brother can do his best to search for clues."
However, Guo Yan suddenly said: "You cannot let fifth brother handle this matter."
His expression was so resolute and his tone was so strong that everyone was shocked for a moment.
The two brothers looked at each other, but Director Guo shook his head: "Second brother, you can't stop me."
Guo Yan gritted his teeth, turned around suddenly, and said, "Father, please stop Fifth Brother.
This is too dangerous."
Duke Guo of Qi looked at Director Guo quietly, with an almost inscrutable expression on his face: "On the one hand, we need to hide your second brother safely, and on the other hand, we need to investigate the matter immediately.
Wait for us I have enough evidence in hand to vindicate your second brother, and then expose your second brother's whereabouts."
This means agreeing to Guo Dao's trip.
Li Weiyang squinted her eyes, and there was a faint light in her eyes: "I will find a way to hide the identity of the second brother, father, don't worry too much."
Qi Guogong's eyes lit up, and when they fell on Li Weiyang's face, they settled into deep inquiries.
Li Weiyang just nodded affirmatively, and Duke Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
Guo Yan watched his relatives spare no effort to help, and mist slowly rose in his eyes.
He knew that Director Guo would take a lot of risks, and he also knew that Li Weiyang would have to work hard to hide him, but he couldn't say a word because Such help comes from blood relatives.
Li Weiyang smiled slightly: "Then please say goodbye to Er Hua as soon as possible.
I will wait for you outside."
When Guo Yan and Chen Bingbing returned to the room, Chen Bingbing hugged him and cried, "Husband, I have been waiting for you to come back."
There was a trace of sadness on Guo Yan's face.
He is a person who is not easy to change.
He loved Nalan Xue deeply in the past and always believed that he could only love one person in his life.
He hated the murderer who destroyed his happiness.
Even subconsciously, he hoped that through indifference, he would automatically let Chen Bingbing understand that it was impossible between them.
But no matter how hard he tried, Chen Bingbing didn't seem to understand and still wanted to marry her desperately.
He, and he had no choice but to marry her precisely because of his family.

In the process, he felt that he had changed.
He was no longer a broad-minded person, but a cowardly and sanctimonious villain.
He only felt that his behavior was very ugly, and he could only learn how to use the skills of a good husband.
He used a mask to confuse Chen Bingbing and also confuse himself.
But no matter what, he couldn't resist the blood that had been flowing in his body for many years.
They were forcing him, forcing him, making him restless day and night, feeling crazy with guilt.
After having to admit that his efforts had failed, he finally He found that there was no way to face Chen Bingbing, so he completely collapsed and couldn't even put on the mask to hide it.
He is like an actor.
The moment the mask comes off, he can no longer be on stage.
He couldn't explain to Nalan Xue, nor could he explain to himself, nor could he face Chen Bingbing, so he chose to guard the border and never return to Dadu.
However, no matter how much he rejected Chen Bingbing, she still wrote a letter every month, telling everything about her family in detail.
She was full of romantic yearning for her persistence, but this kind of love only made Guo Yan feel abnormal. pain.
He looked at Chen Bingbing, there was no love in his heart, he just smiled lightly and said: "How are you doing?"
At this time, everyone in the hall looked very solemn, especially Duke Qi and Princess Chen Liu.
The smile on Princess Chen Liu's face disappeared.
She also knew the impact of this matter on the Guo family.
If it was not handled well, it would be devastating.
She looked at Qi Guogong and frowned: "This matter really needs to be handed over.
Do you want the guide to do it?"
Duke Qi nodded, "I really don't feel comfortable leaving this matter to others.
The guide is the smartest among all the children, so it is most appropriate to leave it to him."
Princess Chen Liu stopped talking.
She glanced at Mrs.
Guo, then at Duke Qi, and said, "But the director's injury is..."
Li Weiyang smiled softly and said: "Grandma, you should believe Fifth Brother."
Director Guo's eyes looked at Li Weiyang, but they were very bright.
Among the people, only Li Weiyang supported him and knew him best.
She believed in her abilities and supported his decision.
Such a girl How could he not like it?
In fact, he was not there to investigate, but to be a target.
As long as he can successfully attract the attention of all enemies to himself, Yuan Lie's people will have a way to find clues.
But if he fails to succeed, the matter will be in dire straits.
In the hall, the only people who could really understand what he meant were Li Weiyang and Qi Guogong.
No, maybe the second brother also guessed it, so he objected so fiercely.
Director Guo smiled: "Father, mother, I will definitely return safely.
I must seize the evidence of those people who framed my second brother."
Mrs.
Guo still looked worried, and Li Weiyang comforted her: "If mother is really worried, I will secretly arrange some people to secretly protect Fifth Brother."
A trace of sadness flashed across Duke Qi's expression, and he nodded and said, "That's all we have to do."
When everyone dispersed, Qi Guogong stopped Li Weiyang and said: "Jia'er, I feel that something is very wrong today."
Something is wrong, something is simply too wrong.
Li Weiyang has felt this way since just now.
Unfortunately, even she can't tell where the problem is.
One problem has not been solved, and another problem comes one after another.
Everything is...

It was aimed at the Guo family.
The other party kept smiling quietly in the dark corner and waiting calmly, obviously patient to the extreme.
This dense net has not yet been closed.
Li Weiyang couldn't help but think of the blind chess game during the day.
She could only move one step and look at three moves, but the other party was taking one step and looking at ten moves, easily controlling the overall situation.
She knew that she had met a real master, so that until now, She couldn't even see where the most crucial move was:
