Real Empress from a Noble Family

Chapter 623: Deng Yi (middle)

Views:

Deng Yi finally recalled that when he was a child, he accidentally encountered his father and his cousin Gu Yan arguing in the room. What happened in the end was the night when he saw his fiancée for the first time.

Qiu Yilan, the princess named Ning Yi, greatly offended Gu Yan that day - she refused Gu Yan's temptation, and also seduced Jiang Yashuang, the direct grandson of Jiang Banchao's family, and forcibly captured her in the Ganquan Palace of Empress Dowager Gu. Gu Yan suffered a bruise and a swollen face, but when the incident came to the attention of Empress Dowager Gu and Empress Jiang, the sharp-tongued Empress Jiang even gloated about Gu Yan's misfortune: "Calculating that he is more than ten years older than Nineteen, he actually launched an army." The sword was beaten by the unarmed Shijiu! I really don’t know why the Guangyang Palace kept him. If he was born in our Jiang family, he would have been sent to fend for himself! But he was still a treasure in the Gu family. He actually became the heir - all the other male heirs of the Gu family are dead, are they all worse than him? "

This was the first time that Deng Yi saw Gu Yan acting so rude - he had no bearing of a rich and powerful man, and roared hysterically: "That little bitch! She must die!!!"

The request of Empress Dowager Gu's direct nephew and Prince Guangyang was quickly implemented.

Deng Yi is also one of the executors.

The location is Ganli Palace.

She is inaccessible and can conveniently frame Queen Mother Ye, who has been in seclusion for many years, completely eliminating this major problem for Queen Mother Gu.

But Deng Yi estimated that the guards who had taken the first step had already slaughtered the pair of delicate masters and servants. When he casually pushed the door open and entered, he ended up being restrained. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have ended up like the two guards. It was cooked smoothly!

He racked his brains to persuade Qiu Yilan to let him go. To this end, he did not hesitate to reveal in his words that he had been humiliated over the years and couldn't wait to get away from Gu Yan. He had no pressure to betray the Gu family and wanted nothing more.

Sure enough, Qiu Yilan believed him.

In fact, that was not what he was thinking at that time...

the reason is simple.

He really doesn't like women.

Not only Gu Yan's guidance, but also because of his mother.

The delicate and beautiful Mrs. Gu can always easily arouse the protective desire in men.

But this is looking at her from a man's perspective.

Put yourself in your son’s shoes.

To say that Deng Yi's life was ruined by her might be too harsh.

But if she had not been able to control her servants and take care of the property after her husband passed away, she did not choose to study, but chose to ask her mother-in-law to allow her to take her son back to the palace to seek refuge... Maybe Deng Yi's fate could have been different

In short, Deng Yi has always been impatient with his weak and ignorant mother.

"Are all women such a headache?" After this thought came to his mind, his interest in women faded away. Not only are they indifferent, but they are also very impatient to deal with them.

Unknowingly, he began to appreciate those members of the same sex who were decisive, decisive, and gave people protection, strength, and security.

Therefore, regarding his relationship with his cousin Gu Yan, he is actually far less resistant and bored than outsiders think.

His initial indifference was just because he had heard too many discussions about the relationship between their cousins, and he was not good at it and did not have the energy to refute them one by one. He simply pretended to be indifferent and taciturn, rejecting people thousands of miles away, and was intimidated by the valley. Yan's power and the number of voices that dared to make irresponsible remarks in front of him were indeed reduced.

Therefore, on that New Year's Eve night, when he left Ganli Palace with cold sweat on his face, all he thought about was: "I must tell my cousin to get rid of this Qiu family as soon as possible! For such an unscrupulous person, it's a good thing that she revealed her secret today! Otherwise, we would really marry her." If you give it to me, wouldn’t it mean that I won’t be able to survive the wedding night? What is the origin of this woman’s anger... No! No matter what her origin is, my cousin is right, she must be eliminated! !”

This was the first time for a boy who had been pampered since childhood to see such a bloody scene - especially one of the guards, who was killed by a hairpin inserted directly from the eyeball into the back of the head. After his death, the eyeball that was still intact almost bulged out of its socket. , so eerie and terrifying!

Qiu Yilan, who had just finished killing someone, was so calm as if nothing had happened. Such a comparison made Deng Yi crawl away after he was probably out of her sight!

"It's too scary!" The thin and beautiful boy ran frantically towards the brightly lit front hall in the silent palace city - he was frightened and desperately needed the comfort of light and the crowd.

Just halfway through, he stopped suddenly!

In his memory, he seemed to have seen similar scenes!

The same wind is like a knife and the night is like ink; the same solitude and no one; the same... pool of blood

Pool of blood? !

How can it be? !

Tonight was the most terrifying scene he had ever seen in his life. Princess Ning Yi was simply not a human being. She... Wait!

Blood... pool

Deng Yi looked pale and slowly slipped down while holding on to the palace wall - he was dizzy and had a splitting headache.

After a flood of darkness hit our face, the lost memories unexpectedly surfaced—

"Father!" As a young child, he ran towards the man in confusion and panic. He didn't relax until he picked him up.

But the next moment, those hands that gave him infinite warmth and safety suddenly turned him into a hug and slammed him to the ground!

"boom!"

Even though the ground was covered with a thick felt blanket because of the cold weather, the strength of the adult man's hand and his age still caused him to feel such severe pain that his skull was shattered!

He fell softly to the ground, blood gurgling out of his seven orifices, quickly soaking the blanket!

"You?!" Gu Yan exclaimed and stepped forward, "Are you crazy?! This is your biological son!!!"

"Although I, the Deng family, are not from a famous family and have been working hard for generations, I am still clean! Because of my carelessness, I was humiliated by you, a beast, and I have lost all hope! Now that you have Yi'er's idea, how can I let it go? You succeeded?!" Deng Hanlin said in a cold and vicious voice, "I would rather kill him than be treated like a noble man in the future!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that Deng Yi was still struggling. He said cheerfully, "Let's go on the road together, father and son!" He wanted to continue to add another kick without mercy - but was stopped by Gu Yan, who had already reacted at this time: "My uncle wants to die, but don't drag his innocent cousin into the water! Tiger poison doesn't even eat its children! My uncle is a strong man and would rather die than be humiliated, but my cousin may not think so!"

The fierce tone suddenly turned into frivolousness, "Besides, my cousin was so stunning, it's such a pity that he died at such a young age?!"

"... Yi'er! Remember, a scholar can be killed! He cannot be humiliated! If you still have the strength, go to the corner of the table over there and hit him again!" Deng Hanlin, who was born as a frail scholar, was not taught martial arts since he was a child. Gu Yan's opponent was stopped by him and could not kill him. In a hurry, he sternly lectured, "I will never call you a cousin who is worse than a beast..."

"Clang!"

"Pfft!"

The bright sword light illuminated the room, and the livid-faced Gu Yan pulled out the sword like lightning, slowly returned it to its sheath, Fang wiped the blood splattered on his face, and said coldly: "Don't know, lift, lift!! !”

Turning around, he saw the dying Deng Yi, barely raising his head, staring blankly at his father's headless body slowly falling down - those black and white eyes were full of dullness and lifelessness!

"Cousin Yi?" Gu Yan frowned, put the sword aside, walked over, bent down, and asked tentatively, "How are you? Come, cousin is here, you don't have to be afraid!"

What answered him was Deng Yi's hysterical scream: "Ah!!!"

... Later, it was Gu Yan who probably took him out for medical treatment and managed to cover up the truth.

Maybe even his mother Gu didn't know the truth - maybe Gu actually knew it, but she needed to rely on her natal family to make a living, so naturally she couldn't tell it, so she just assumed that her husband died of illness.

Ten years later, Deng Yi, who finally recovered his memory, leaned against the high wall of Ganli Palace, sweating profusely and limp as mud: "Father... Father wanted to kill me! Cousin... saved me..."

But the reason why his father wanted to kill him was because he didn't want him to be humiliated at the hands of his cousin;

His cousin saved him just because he was good-looking and could be his plaything;

After being brought to Guangyang Palace by his mother, his life was not as good as his cousin's wish

Such a self has failed his father's expectations and insulted the reputation of the Deng family. If he goes underground one day, he will not be able to face the ancestors of the Deng family, right

If his father had not been killed by Gu Yan, he would not have had to live under the influence of others in the Guangyang Palace, and would not have had to bear the consequences of his mother's weakness. If he had not lacked the support of his father's love when he was growing up, would he not be the misogynistic and admiring man he is now? ? !

Even if you are talented and outstanding, you will always be looked down upon...

All achievements in the future will be considered as relying on the body to cling to Guyan...

He stared blankly at the distant dusk, feeling that all the thoughts in his mind were arising and dying innumerable, but none of them could relieve the torment and pain he was feeling at this moment.

That day, he couldn't get up under the palace wall for a long time. He waited until Gu Yan couldn't find him, so he sent people to look for him. The people looking for him carried him back. When Gu Yan asked, he instinctively just said that he had seen him. Qiu Yilan never mentioned that she had recovered her memory when she killed two guards.

"No wonder!" After hearing this, Gu Yan's eyes flashed with compassion and pity. After sighing, he concealed it vigilantly, "Cousin, you have always been soft-hearted. No wonder you can't see such a scene."

Realizing that Deng Yi was still trembling slightly, he smiled and comforted, "I didn't think about this well enough. I really didn't expect that little bitch to actually hold on to it! It's just that she stopped here - you have a good rest, this time I will deal with the aftermath, don’t be afraid... Come on, go to the kitchen and ask for a bowl of soothing soup!”

Before the soothing soup arrived, he took Deng Yi's hand and patted it comfortingly, but he didn't know that the reason why Deng Yi was trembling was because he was thinking: "Can I kill him if I start now?!"

The conclusion is that it cannot be - although Deng Hanlin fought with Gu Yan when he was on guard, Deng Hanlin was already an adult man at that time, but he was still beheaded by Gu Yan's sword in an understatement!

Although he could make Gu Yan defenseless against him, he was still just a young man who had not yet developed much strength, and he was unarmed at the moment. Due to the huge panic and the strong impact after the memory was restored, his hands and feet were so weak at the moment that he could not raise his strength at all. !

Learn martial arts!

Finally, he thought of a temporary excuse to survive from Qiu Yilan: "Qiu is not older than me, and she is a woman... She can kill those two guards. If I can learn her skills, then... "

He seemed to have a frightened look in his eyes, sliding past Gu Yan's throat unnoticeably.
