The second master came back alone, so naturally there was something wrong with picking up the old lady, and this situation was: the old lady refused to come back, and she had to kneel down and kowtow to Gu Qiancheng three times to pick her up sincerely before she would come back.
In other words, the old lady knew that Gu Guifei was in favor again and that the emperor had ordered her to enter the palace. The old lady had grown stronger and wanted to get back the humiliation she suffered that day from Gu Qiancheng with all the profits.
.
The old lady kept remembering the incident of being driven out of the house in embarrassment that day. After staying in the temple for more than half a year, not only did she fail to cultivate her moral character, but she even hated Gu Qiancheng and blamed all her mistakes on Gu Qiancheng.
Now, with the support of the imperial concubine and the emperor's decree, the old lady would be a ghost if she didn't take the opportunity to torment Gu Qiancheng.
"Qiancheng, my grandfather wants you to leave the city immediately, so as not to delay the old lady's entry into the palace tomorrow." The second master knew that Gu Qiancheng would not comply easily, so as soon as he finished speaking, he moved the old lady out.
"Kneel down three times and kowtow nine times?" Gu Qiancheng laughed angrily, and the second master snorted contemptuously, "Why, aren't you willing?"
"No, of course I am willing, but don't regret it, old lady." Gu Qiancheng clenched his hands into fists and bit his lips.
Mrs. Gu bullied others too much. She knelt three times and kowtowed nine times. When she knelt all the way to the temple outside the city, she would be disabled even if she didn't die. Since that old pious woman was unkind, don't blame her for being unjust.
"Regret? Qiancheng, are you talking nonsense? It should be you who regrets it. You did something so cruel and forced your mother to go to the temple, and now you have to suffer the consequences." The second master thought about how he was suffering at the time.
Even though he begged and begged, he couldn't get the old man to give up sending his mother to the temple, and he felt resentful in his heart.
The person Gu Qiancheng forced away was his biological mother.
"You will reap the consequences?" Gu Qiancheng chuckled. The second master couldn't stand the way Gu Qiancheng was not afraid of anything, so he said harshly: "The old master will not come back until his mother asks you to kneel down and kowtow to pick her up. In one sentence,
No one tried to dissuade her. The old man also asked me to tell you that as a junior, you should behave like a junior. No matter what your mother says or does, you can only accept it. If your mother refuses to come back, it will be all your fault. Yes
You are not sincere enough."
This sounds like something an old man would say, but the original words may not be so harsh. The second master must have added fuel to the fire.
Gu Qiancheng already knew who the old man was, so he wasn't sad at all, he just found it ridiculous.
Gu Qiancheng sneered noncommittally, "My grandfather gave me the order, so naturally I dare not disobey it. Please ask my second uncle to let me change my clothes."
The second master did not doubt that she was not there, but asked Gu Qiancheng to move quickly and not to delay the old lady's entry into the city. The old lady would enter the palace tomorrow. If she wanted to delay the old lady's entry into the palace, Gu Qiancheng would be the sinner.
This was a threat. Gu Qiancheng glanced at the second master, lowered his head and said: "Second uncle, don't worry, it won't take long."
Gu Qiancheng turned back to the yard. Chengyi didn't know what happened. When he saw Gu Qiancheng coming in, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "Sister, why are you back? The old lady is back?"
"No, the old lady asked me to pick her up in person before she would come back."
"What? Why does the old lady have her?" Gu Chengyi was so angry that he almost jumped up. "The old lady obviously made a mistake and went to the temple. Why should sister Qiancheng pick her up in person? Sister Qiancheng, you can't go.
Me, Cheng Huan and I are going, please prepare the carriage while Cheng Huan and I go together."
Gu Chengyi said that he was about to rush out, but was stopped by Gu Qiancheng, "Don't be impulsive. I won't suffer any loss for your sister. She wants me to pick her up, so I'll just go."
"But……"
"There is no but, I believe sister." Gu Qiancheng looked determined, and Gu Chengyi nodded unconsciously.
Only then did Gu Qiancheng let go of Gu Chengyi, called the maids and asked them to prepare a white dress for him, or in other words, a mourning dress.
Putting on a mourning dress, Gu Qiancheng took off all the jewelry on his body, except for a white flower on his head.
Gu Qiancheng, who wanted to be pretty and dressed in filial piety, looked deserted, aloof, and the sadness revealed inadvertently made people want to protect her involuntarily.
"Sister, what are you going to do?" Gu Chengyi looked blank, not understanding what Gu Qiancheng was going to do.
"Silly boy, have you forgotten why the old lady went to the temple?" The corners of Gu Qiancheng's lips raised, but he did not smile. The coldness in his eyes sent a chill down Gu Chengyi's spine.
Gu Chengyi knew something about that matter, but...
"Sister, do you want to tell me?"
Gu Chengyi was taught that family scandal should not be exposed publicly. Gu Qiancheng's actions had such a huge impact on him that he couldn't accept it for a while, but Gu Qiancheng had already decided on this matter.
"The old lady forced me," Gu Qiancheng's pale lips parted slightly, with a frosty look on his face, "If I don't teach the old lady a profound lesson, she will never understand how much she weighs."
"But, but..." What will happen to the Gu family's face then?
Gu Chengyi looked uneasy, but he couldn't say these words.
"Yes, the old lady asked me to kneel down and kowtow three times and nine times from the Gu family to pick her up, and she won't come back if I'm not sincere enough. Don't say that I can't kneel all the way there, so I can kneel all the way to the temple outside the city, old lady
If I don't come back easily, I will most likely be tortured to death by the old lady." Gu Qiancheng deliberately made the consequences very serious, just to let Gu Chengyi understand that she was forced to do this.
"The old lady is so hateful, how could she treat Sister Qiancheng like this?" Gu Chengyi gritted his teeth in anger and had no time to think about family ugliness or not. Nothing was as important as his sister Qiancheng, but...
"Sister Qiancheng, they won't let you go out if you dress like this." Gu Chengyi looked worried, hating that he was so small and weak that he couldn't help Sister Qiancheng.
"You underestimate your sister Qiancheng too much." Gu Qiancheng said inscrutably. When Gu Chengyi was puzzled, Gu Qiancheng had already walked out from him.
"Come out." Gu Qiancheng shouted into the air. When Gu Chengyi chased him out, he saw a man in black appearing out of thin air, kneeling on one knee in front of Gu Qiancheng.
"What's going on?" Gu Chengyi's mouth opened wide, but no one answered his question.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin sent you to protect me. Now that I am in danger, can I ask you to do something small?" Gu Qiancheng asked first. After receiving a positive reply from the secret guard, Gu Qiancheng said: "Help me go to the city.
Order a good coffin from the largest coffin shop and ask them to carry the coffin and wait for me at the city gate. In addition, escort me out of the city."
The secret guard nodded slightly and sent a signal into the air. Soon a young man wearing the clothes of a servant of the Gu family appeared. The secret guard told the young man to go handle Gu Qiancheng's affairs, and then he turned darkness into light and stood in front of Gu Qiancheng.
Behind Qian Cheng.
Gu Chengyi's mouth never closed, he couldn't understand at all what was going on?
Is this still the Gu Guogong Mansion that he is familiar with?
Gu Qiancheng had no intention of explaining. Under the escort of the secret guards, he first went to the Gu family ancestral hall and took out his mother's memorial tablet...
