Obviously, the previous inquiries were all polite. Who has so much bird's nest porridge for you to drink? Even if she did, she wouldn't waste it on Shen Guiye.
Xiuyue, who was waiting outside the door, finally heard her girl's voice. She felt relieved and went to the small kitchen to cook two bowls of noodles herself.
Fortunately, there were few people in the girl's yard. Xiuyu was sent to rest early in the morning, and no one noticed even Prince Heng was in the house.
The rolled noodles are sprinkled with two slices of beef half noodles, braised eggs, green scallions and a spoonful of yellow-orange crab roe. It looks great and tastes good.
Prince Heng didn't choose, picked up the noodles with chopsticks and started eating first.
Gu Mingmou stood behind the screen, saw his movements through the gap, and raised her eyebrows slightly. Every move of this man made her feel that she was judging a gentleman with a villain's heart, but did he really believe in herself so much
She quickly changed her clothes and after cleaning herself, she rubbed her face and walked out.
"Is it delicious
"Not bad." He picked up a piece of beef and was putting it into his mouth. When he saw the little girl tilting her head to look at him, he couldn't help but pass the chopsticks to her.
Gu Mingmou was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly opened his mouth and bit the piece of meat. After doing this, Shen Guiye felt that something was wrong. He put down his chopsticks and did not touch the half-left bowl of noodles.
It wasn't until Gu Mingmou finished his midnight snack that Shen Guiye finally got up and planned to leave.
Before leaving, Gu Mingmou suddenly grabbed his sleeve, raised his head slightly, his pale eyes looked like fine amber under the candlelight, "What did you want to say to me today?"
"What do you think I should say?"
Gu Mingmou lowered his eyes and hesitated before speaking: "I will use other means to deal with Aunt Zhang, and my second uncle will not be involved."
Shen Guiye looked at her steadily for a while, then smiled, "No, just do what you like."
"But… "
He rubbed his light pink lips, and the soft touch made him squint, "After all, he is your father's biological brother, so this matter won't make a big deal."
Therefore, it is not inconsistent with his plan. This is why he is willing to give her some information about Gu Zhen. She is smarter than expected.
The telltale signs were caught with just a few clues.
Such a smart little girl, the more she knew, the faster she would die, but he let her go and wanted her to know more.
"Go back and rest."
"Yes." Gu Mingmou finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Shen Guiye push the door open and walk into the darkness.
Being with Shen Guiye looked relaxed, but my heart was very tired. Even every word you say and every action you make must be carefully thought out so as not to bore him and whet his appetite all the time.
Oh, if she had been at this level in her previous life, would she have let Qi Lang fool her around
Although Shen Guiye is difficult to deal with, there is one advantage. At least with him here, he will not think about Qi Lang. After all, people really can’t be compared.
As soon as Shen Guiye returned to the palace, he saw a white figure appearing in front of him. He paused and was a little surprised, "National Preceptor? What a rare guest."
"I have been waiting for the prince for a long time. The prince seems to be in a good mood."
Shen Guiye moved his fingers, and there was still a wisp of light fragrance on his fingertips, "That's right. The Imperial Master came to see me for something important?"
"It's nothing important. It's just that the imperial concubine is pregnant, and the emperor intends to establish a prince." Ning Ze kept silent, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he revealed the shocking secret.
"Has it been diagnosed?"
"It's a male fetus."
"Ha, my father is really... impatient." Shen Guiye smiled sarcastically. The two brothers had been fighting for so many years, but in the end they were not as good as the one in the imperial concubine's belly.
It's just that my father was too impatient. He came up with this idea even before the child was born. In the palace, as long as the benefits are big enough, there are many people who are willing to trade their lives for their future.
He didn't even have to do anything, just wait and see.
Early the next morning, before Gu Mingmou got up, Xiuyue hurried into the room, "Girl, something happened over there, Madam."
"What?" Gu Mingmou frowned and sat up from the bed.
"Last night, the young master had a high fever. This morning, he was outbreathing more and less incoming. The doctor came and took a look and said he was poisoned after eating something that was incompatible with him."
"What does it have to do with mother?"
"
Aunt Zhang ran to the old lady like crazy early in the morning and said that she couldn't tolerate them. She also said that she knew she was wrong and wanted to move out. "
"You dare to make trouble without even evidence?"
"No, this time the evidence is conclusive. The doctor has checked and Xiangke's food is in the snacks that Madam sent over." Xiuyue said in a hurry.
"Is the person who brought the snacks still there?" Gu Mingmou also felt that something was wrong and asked hurriedly.
"He hanged himself in the room. Nothing was found in the room. It was very clean." Xiuyue shook her head and said, "I have some impression of that maidservant. She is an orphan. She has been with the madam since she was a child."
Gu Mingmou took a breath and felt a little cold inexplicably. Such a method was not something that ordinary women in the house would use. Just like Aunt Ning back then, she specifically made a plan to bribe the maid in order to frame the Xue family. This strategy was good, but the more she did it, the more mistakes she made. But now this person is simple and crude. How powerful is it to be able to kill the people around her mother quietly like this
In fact, even Xue didn't expect that someone would use Gu Jingxing's life to plot against her. Although she looked calm on her face, she was wondering in her heart who had such means.
Aunt Zhang didn't have the ability to let the maids around her die, and she didn't necessarily know about the conflicting food. After thinking about it, she turned out to be pointing at the second wife! When did Erfang's hand stretch out so long
In the old lady's room, Aunt Zhang was holding her legs and crying so hard that she almost fainted. The old lady had already passed out. She rolled her eyes again when she saw her and was pinching her.
The room was noisy and quiet until Gu Yong came over. Also coming with Gu Yong was Gu Zhen, the second master of the Gu family who rarely showed up. They just saw Gu Jingxing come back, and their faces were a little ugly now.
Seeing Ms. Xue, Gu Zhen paused and called out coldly, "Sister-in-law."
"Why do you call me sister-in-law? This woman is a loser. She just wants to destroy our Gu family!" When Mrs. Gu woke up and saw her two sons, she burst into tears and pointed at Mr. Xue and cursed, I couldn't bear to hear those ugly words.
Mr. Xue closed her eyes and never made a sound.
"Boss, you must divorce her this time. She killed my eldest grandson, and I want her to pay for it with her life!"
