Tian Mi looked at Gu Yiyang's leaving back, feeling a little heavy in her heart.
She didn't know how to tell Gu Yiyang to relieve his sadness.
King Yongning also frowned, he naturally heard Gu Yiyang's words when he left, but where would he find Mrs. Ru to come back
He turned his head to look at Tian Mi, thought for a while, and smiled at Tian Mi: "Mi'er, look, Yiyang didn't know the news of your madam Ru's accidental death, and now Yiyang has just returned to the imperial court and made great contributions. Don't provoke him with Mrs. Ru's death, why not just say Mrs. Ru died suddenly?"
Tian Mi raised her eyes to look at him, and sneered in her heart, but she still had a docile look on her face: "What the lord said is very true, Mier knows how to tell brother. Don't worry, lord."
Only then did King Yongning nod his head, feel relieved, thinking, let Princess Yongning send a message to the servants later, to hide what happened back then.
He believes that Tian Mi will listen to him, because he believes that a daughter should follow her father at home and her husband after marriage.
Therefore, he never thought that Tian Mi would be obedient to him.
Tian Mi has returned to Rumeng Garden, and now that Gu Yiyang is back, Ouyang Suyu's favorability is not in a hurry. It's time for King Yongning and Tian Xiao to pay the price.
Gu Yiyang came back in the evening, and King Yongning hosted a reception banquet.
All the family members had dinner together, apparently enjoying themselves happily.
However, when Gu Yiyang asked Mrs. Ru's whereabouts again, everyone's expressions changed. When the concubines came out, they all put down their chopsticks and lowered their heads timidly.
Gu Yiyang had a bad premonition in his heart. He sat up straight and looked at King Yongning with firm eyes, hoping that he could give him an answer. Five years of military career made his demeanor unintentionally chill.
Tian Mi didn't speak, but just sat quietly, waiting for King Yongning to speak. King Yongning swallowed, and smiled dryly at Gu Yiyang: "Well, Yiyang, Mrs. Ru, died of a sudden illness two years ago."
"What?!" Gu Yiyang stood up vigorously, propped her hands on the table, and made a lot of noise when the bowls and chopsticks touched each other.
His imposing manner was too strong, he didn't look like a nineteen-year-old boy at all, and those with low status even lowered their heads to lower their sense of existence.
"What are you doing so loudly? Who are you trying to scare? Then Mrs. Ru died suddenly. It's her bad life. Who can blame her!?" Tian Xiao also stood up and shouted at Gu Yiyang, as if he was afraid of being compared by Gu Yiyang, in order to raise his voice , The veins on his neck burst.
Gu Yiyang's eyes were red, and he didn't care about him, only the words that Mrs. Ru died of a sudden illness two years ago echoed in his mind, and the words came back and forth, seeming to carry echoes.
He trembled slightly, looked at Tian Mi, with pleading in his eyes, as if he hoped that she would not break his expectation.
Tian Mi raised her head and looked directly at him, with tears in her eyes, she nodded: "She did die of a sudden illness." After speaking, she lowered her head.
Gu Yiyang shook his head, with disbelief written all over his face, he turned around and ran out of the dining room, towards Rumengyuan.
Tian Mi turned her head to look at Gu Yiyang's running back, glanced at King Yongning, and stood up: "My lord, I want to see my brother."
Tian Mi's answer just now reassured King Yongning, and he nodded in agreement with Tian Mi's request.
A reception banquet, whether you are happy or not, only everyone knows.
When Tian Mi returned to Rumeng Garden, she saw Gu Yiyang who was looking everywhere, and he was still muttering "Mother." Tian Mi's eyes were red again, thinking of the woman she saw when she just came in.
She walked behind Gu Yiyang and hugged him: "Brother, don't look for her, mother kisses her, she's not here."
Gu Yiyang's body stiffened: "Where is she?" His voice was a little hoarse, and there was an aura called sadness all over his body.
Tian Mi sniffed, and said softly: "It has already been buried, on the Mingting Mountain where mother's mother was born." Mrs. Ru came from an ordinary family. The medicine business, but once sold the wrong medicine. The people who bought the medicine had a lot of background, and people died after taking the medicine, so all the Gu family died except Mrs. Ru and Gu Yiyang.
And Mrs. Ru was born in Mingting Mountain, because Mrs. Ru's mother gave birth early when she was picking herbs in Mingting Mountain, so she was born on the mountain.
Back then, Luoqiu's elder brother found Mrs. Ru in the mass grave, and buried her.
Later, Tian Mi chose another day to perform a ritual ceremony for Mrs. Ru, and moved her to Mingting Mountain for burial.
Feeling that Gu Yiyang had calmed down, Tian Mi let go of Gu Yiyang, and the servants in the yard had already hid. Luo Qiu stood guard at the gate of the courtyard.
Tian Mi took Gu Yiyang's hand and entered the wing.
Gu Yiyang's body was still trembling, Tian Mi closed the door and looked back at him.
His eyes were red, but the tears stubbornly did not fall.
"Mother, she didn't die suddenly!" Tian Mi said softly.
Gu Yiyang regained consciousness in an instant, and looked at her: "What do you say?"
"Brother, we want to avenge mother! We want those who hurt mother to pay the price!" Tian Mi looked at Gu Yiyang firmly, with tears in her eyes and determination.
"Who is it?" Gu Yiyang asked in a hoarse voice, mother, she never fights, even if she loses the favor of King Yongning, she still guards him and his sister, living in this small courtyard.
"King Yongning, Mrs. Xiao, two years ago, King Yongning favored his mother once, and her mother became pregnant by accident. Mrs. Xiao framed her for having an affair with an outsider. King Yongning hanged her in front of everyone and in front of me. Mother." After finishing speaking, she held Gu Yiyang's clenched fist: "Brother, I have already cleaned up Mrs. Xiao. Two years ago, I tricked Mrs. Xiao into telling the truth of the matter, and King Yongning locked her in. In my own yard, I made Luo Qiu pretend to be my mother, and Mrs. Xiao was so guilty that she was frightened mad. Now she is half dead. King Yongning, before you come back, I still have to rely on him, so I didn’t do anything. I've been making lies with him all the time."
Her voice had the magic power to make people calm down, Gu Yiyang took a deep breath, his eyes gradually cleared up: "Then, King Yongning asked you to say that your mother died suddenly?"
Seeing Tian Mi nod her head, Gu Yiyang's eyes darkened, something was surging inside.
"I won't let him go!" He held Tian Mi's hand back, looked at Tian Mi's petite body, and touched her cheek pitifully: "Sister, I have wronged you all these years. From now on, brother I will never let you be wronged again." Tian Mi nodded, her eyes full of trust.
"Have you said enough?"
