Standing in the bleak wind, no one spoke, the two of them just stood very quietly.

After what happened just now, Gu Liuxi was disappointed with Lanshan Yucha. She originally thought that he would like her, and even a little bit could soothe her injured heart. But after hearing the conversation between them, she discovered that she It's just a substitute.

The person he likes is Xi, not himself.

This realization made her feel particularly embarrassed.

However, Lanshan Yucha was thinking about how to explain to her that what he said just now did not come from his heart. Wasn't this a slap in the face?

Why do I feel guilty even though I have done nothing wrong?

Lanshan Yucha couldn't figure out what he was thinking. It was obvious that Mingxi matched Gu Liuxi's personality before, so why did he have inexplicable misunderstandings about this Gu Liuxi!

What happened to him? Did he fall in love with them both at the same time? Was it because they looked similar or because they both had the shadow of Gu Liuxi?

"Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to allow me to return to the General's Mansion for a while." During this period, let her hide and lick her wounds! She really can't stay any longer now. She is afraid that she will collapse, but she is afraid that she will collapse. I don't want to expose my weakest side in front of them, as this will make me feel even more embarrassed.

She has never needed sympathy and pity.

"When do you want to go back?" Lanshan Yucha became very strange today. He did not stop her, let alone accompany her back as promised a few days ago.

My heart felt inexplicably sad.

Originally, I was really just a substitute.

Even though she was heartbroken, Gu Liuxi still didn't want to be weak in front of him. She took a deep breath and said decisively: "Just today!"

It might be a wise choice to leave this place that made it difficult for her to breathe earlier.

"So soon?" Lanshan Yucha was surprised. He thought she would wait until at least tomorrow morning.

"I'm unhappy. I miss my family and desperately want to go back to see my father and my wife." She just wanted to escape from this place, and the rest were just excuses made up by her.

"Then I'll take you back!"

When the Lanshan language tea talk came out, not only Gu Liuxi but also himself was surprised.

Gu Liuxi was just stunned for a moment before replying: "The emperor has many things to do every day. I really don't dare to waste the emperor's time. It's better to let me go back alone."

It was clear that she was not in love with him, so why did he give her such an illusion?

He didn't know if he would make her mistakenly think that he liked her?

However, she didn't believe it.

After she heard him say those words with her own ears, she no longer believed that he really liked her.

"I have finished my work today, so I will go back with you." For some reason, when he said this, his heart suddenly felt relieved.

Gu Liuxi was surprised by Lanshan Yucha's behavior. Was he sincere or fake?

"Why do you do this?" In fact, he doesn't need to pay attention to himself. Doesn't he not love himself? So what does this mean? Is he pitying her? Is he pitying her?

Can she choose to reject his sympathy?

But Lanshan Yucha stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead, "Didn't I promise you that I would go back with you? Do you want me to become a rude person?"

Gu Liuxi was a little stunned as she covered the part of her mind that he had touched. The temperature of his fingertips was still there, and the place he touched felt as hot as if it had been burned by fire. It was so deeply imprinted in her heart.

"I don't dare." He lowered his head slightly to hide his confusion at this second.

"Okay, hurry back and pack your luggage. I will come to pick you up after making arrangements later."

Without giving her a chance to refuse, Blue Mountain Yucha made the final decision.

Gu Liuxi could only accept it.

Gu Liuxi didn't have much luggage to begin with. She simply packed a few clothes and brought some jewelry and other items that she had no use for. It was all done with just two bags.

She was going back to the General's Mansion, so naturally she had to take her personal maid Xiao Zhou with her.

When Xiao Zhou followed Gu Liuxi out with his luggage, Lanshan Yucha was already waiting outside the East Palace gate. When he saw her coming out, he got off the carriage himself.

When Lanshan Yucha looked at Liu Xi, her eyes were a little dodgey. She seemed to have something unspeakable.

Gu Liuxi naturally did not miss his expression, "What's wrong?" Could it be that he regretted it and didn't want to go back with her?

"No, there's just someone she wants to go with."

"OK!"

Gu Liuxi didn't notice Lanshan Yucha's expression. When she heard that someone wanted to go to the General's Mansion, she was naturally very welcome.

Lanshan Yucha was very happy, "That's great, Xiaoxi, you can come with us."

When Gu Liuxi saw Xi walking towards him, her whole face changed. She never thought that she would be the one who wanted to follow her back to the General's Mansion, so she froze on the spot for a moment.

Now, can she still refuse?

Can you take back what you said?

"Thanks."

Xi nodded slightly towards Gu Liuxi as a greeting.

But Gu Liuxi's smile froze on her face.

Inside the luxurious horse, three people sat facing each other, but each turned his head outside, looking at the scenery retreating in the distance.

The atmosphere in the car was extremely dull, but no one stood up to break the silence.

The carriage drove directly to the general's mansion.

As soon as he got off the carriage, Xi felt a signal of death. Someone was dead inside.

Surprisingly, no one was guarding the door of the General's Mansion.

This was not only a surprise to Gu Liuxi, but also a surprise to Lanshan Yucha. What happened to the General's Mansion? Why didn't there even be a gatekeeper?

After handing the carriage to the servants, Gu Liuxi, Lanshan Yucha, and Xi walked into the general's mansion. As soon as they entered the general's mansion, they heard a cry.

What's going on?

Sensing that the atmosphere in the General's Mansion was strange, Gu Liuxi quickened his pace and entered the lobby. He saw that everyone in the lobby was there, but they were all crying together.

There was a corpse placed in the center of the hall, and the eldest lady, second lady, third lady, fourth lady...all the ladies, sisters and brothers knelt beside the corpse, crying loudly, and the servants and servants also knelt down.

On the ground, the only thing missing was the figure of the fifth lady.

Gu Liuxi's footsteps stopped abruptly at the door, because she saw that the corpse lying in the middle of the lobby was that of her father. Although her father had never loved her, in her heart, her father had always been as great as a god.

exists.

Now, seeing her father falling asleep like this and never waking up again, her heart suddenly throbbed and she slowly knelt down.

Hearing the noise behind them, everyone else looked up, only to see Gu Liuxi kneeling at the door alone.

"The Queen..."

The servant who didn't know it was the servant shouted, which immediately broke the silence around him, and the crying suddenly stopped. They all raised their heads and looked in the direction of the door.

While they were confronting each other, Lanshan Yucha appeared behind Gu Liuxi with Xi.

When everyone saw Xi's face, their eyes were as big as bells.

Everyone had huge doubts in their minds.

How come there are two Gu Liuxi?

When everyone reacted to the astonishment of the two Gu Liuxi, they all knelt down to pay homage to Lanshan Yucha.

"Everyone, get up! What is going on? How could General Gu do this?" Lanshan Yucha frowned. She didn't expect that the general would pass away at this time.

With the help of the maid, the eldest lady stood up and cried to Lanshan Yucha with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, please make the decision for the general."

"My eldest madam, I have my condolences. Please tell me everything, and I will definitely give you justice."

Only then did the eldest lady tell the whole story in detail.

Last night, General Gu suddenly asked the fifth lady to go to bed. This morning, General Gu and the fifth lady had not gone out for a long time. The first lady wanted to take the maid to wait for the general to get up and wash up, but found that the general was dead, and the fifth lady took the

Holding the dagger that killed the general.

The wound on General Gu's body completely matched the dagger in the fifth lady's hand. It was a fatal blow and there was not even any sign of struggle.

It can be seen from this that it was the fifth lady who killed the general with a knife while he was sleeping.

Now the fifth lady is being locked up in the woodshed in the backyard. She says nothing when asked, she looks dazed and unconscious, and refuses to answer every question, acquiescing to the fact that she killed the general.

"No, the Fifth Madam will not kill my father." Gu Liuxi didn't believe that such a weak woman as the Fifth Madam would not even dare to kill an ant, let alone kill someone. How could such a person be possible?

Will be a murderer.

As soon as the eldest lady heard what Gu Liuxi said, she cried even harder, "General! You died so miserably. Now even your daughter is defending the murderer. You will not be at peace under Jiuquan."

"Madam." Gu Liuxi's tears fell one by one and wetted the clothes on her chest. She was not sad about her father's death, and she didn't want to find the murderer and avenge her father.

But she believed that the fifth lady was not the murderer. The fifth lady liked her father so much, how could she kill him?

Others may not know it, but Gu Liuxi knows that the fifth lady truly loves her father. She regrets that she did not give birth to a son and a half for her father in her life, but she is better than any of her father's children and takes special care of her.

When she was bullied, beaten and scolded, it was the fifth lady who stood up to protect her.

She could see the deep love and deep love the fifth lady had for her father.

How could a woman who loved her father so much kill him?

She didn't believe that the fifth lady would do such a thing, there must be some conspiracy behind it.

She believed that the Fifth Madam was just being wronged.

She believed in the fifth lady, she would not kill her father.
