Loyal heart travels a long way

The members of the Chu family have always helped their relatives and not helped their relatives, let alone Chu Lang was in charge of this matter.

Although the old general didn't reach the point of suing imperial court, he didn't intend to spare Qin Zhengqi easily.Chu Lang has been wronged so much for so many years, it is impossible for the entire Chu family to let Qin Zhengqi take advantage of it.

On the second day after everyone settled down in Fu Garden, they went to the Qin Mansion to visit the master in a mighty way.

The time of the early dynasty in the Great Zhou Dynasty was not as early as in previous dynasties. It usually started at Chen hour and ended at Si hour.Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian did as usual, they got up at four o'clock to freshen up, and at five o'clock they were ready to eat, so that they could go to court.

Since the two of them moved away from the main house, they have become more and more unrestrained in their relationship. The servants of the mansion have also served in the Qin mansion for many years. They know what is going on with their master, so they should not see it.

Qin Zhengqi took Qin Xian's shoulders and walked to the dining room like this. As soon as he entered the door, he hurriedly put his hand down, breaking out in a cold sweat.

Old General Chu and the old lady were sitting on the chairs of the grand masters, looking straight at themselves.

What Qin Zhengqi was most afraid of was Lord Taishan. He was a veteran who had experienced three dynasties. His eyes looked as clean as taking off his clothes.Even Mrs. Chu is not an ordinary official wife. This heroine who carried a whip and went to the battlefield with the old general is no different than that man.This Gao Ming has a fiery temper. Although he has been pampered for many years, Qin Zhengqi did not believe that his mother-in-law practiced Buddhism.The two of his Yue family are really the ones Qin Zhengqi can't afford to provoke.

Chu Lin and Zhu Zhifu also came, and the two stood on the left hand side of the old general and his wife, with unfriendly expressions on their faces.In fact, it stands to reason that there is no reason for the magistrate to extend his hand to help vent his anger when his sister-in-law was wronged, but when Chu Lin was not married to him, Chu Lang always found excuses so that his sister and brother-in-law could meet each other, and Chu Lin loved her sister again, so he was her brother-in-law Ai Wuji Wu, who regards Chu Lang as his own sister, is really angry now.

Chu Dancheng and Chu Qingfeng of the younger generation did not come, and the members of the Chu family suddenly asked for leave and did not go to court.

The people who came were Zhu Chengdong, Chu Mingyue, and Gu Zhiyao.

Seeing Gu Zhiyao, Qin Zhengqi was even more dizzy than seeing Chu Dancheng, this is a master who does not suffer, but when it comes to Chu Dancheng, he has to care more about it, and it is difficult to deal with.

It was no surprise that the Chu family appeared here at this time. This family is all martial arts practitioners, and they are used to getting up early, so it would not be surprising if they woke up an hour earlier today to come to the Qin residence to question their crimes.

Qin Zhengqi's heart was filled with panic, he had no idea when this big family came to the capital, and it was hard not to be frightened when he saw these debt-collecting faces after washing up early in the morning.

Furthermore, since the people in the main house moved away, he and Qin Xian became more and more aggressive. Now Qin Xian simply lives in the main house, not even going to the east wing.

If it is said that a child as old as Gu Zhiyao has admiration for his elder brother and father, it is fine, Qin Xian is fifteen, how can there be any reason for such an old child to still live in his father's room?

Old General Chu's expression was unclear, Qin Zhengqi couldn't figure out what he was thinking, and felt uneasy, so he had to bite the bullet and ask: "I don't know, Mr. Taishan, what is the reason for the early morning visit...?"

Qin Zhengqi dared to give the main house a bad look because Chu Lang's father was in charge of the military and was not allowed to return to Beijing without an edict.But he never expected that the Chu family would do it for s. n. p daughter and Li's matter, he dared to disregard the emperor's fear or not, and his family came to the capital.Seeing these people suddenly now, his heart beat like a drum, afraid that those who had seen blood on the battlefield would sacrifice their heads to the knife.

As usual, Gu Zhiyao would have to open his mouth to stab him, and Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian would never be able to feel at ease.

But today there was an elder here, so it was inconvenient for him to rush to talk, so he just stared at the two of them, quietly waiting for Old General Chu to speak first.

Old General Chu didn't seem to care about the relationship between the two of them, so he nodded at the coffee table at hand: "Sit down and talk."

Qin Zhengqi nodded his thanks, but he didn't dare to really sit down, he just lowered his head and took two steps forward, stood a little closer, and pulled Qin Xian again, asking him to come forward and say hello.

Qin Xian didn't see how frightened he was, he stepped forward and saluted loudly, "Grandpa."

"Tch," Old General Chu didn't speak, but the old lady sneered first, "What are you talking about? Langer didn't know when he had another son."

Qin Xian smiled: "Being a mother for a day is a mother for the rest of my life. Grandpa still deserves this gift."

"If you are like this, even if you kneel down and kowtow ten heads, my mother can bear it." Chu Lin raised her hand to help her hair bun, "You two have too many vain heads, and you are here today for nothing else. One, since you, surnamed Qin, have reconciled with Lang'er, the dowry must be refunded to us. Today, the Chu family brought all the betrothal gift and the gift money from Xiaoding back then. If you want to break it, we will break it clean Fast."

Chu Lin has been pampered and respected for many years, and she has the air of a noble lady. She glanced at Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian with disdain in her heart, and turned to look at Gu Zhiyao: "Yao'er, you can tell the rest. Usually, the main house is in Qin Zhengqi's house. The family has suffered a lot of grievances and crimes, and today the Chu family is here to support you, mother and son, don't be afraid, just say anything."

She spoke a few words lightly, but Qin Zhengqi complained endlessly in his heart.

Before Gu Zhiyao came to the Qin Mansion, the backyard was indeed treated harshly by the front yard, but since this man entered the mansion, which servants have not avoided this ancestor, so what can he suffer?

Of course Gu Zhiyao didn't feel that he was being wronged, no matter what, Chu Dan sincerely protected Chu Lang and himself, life was much better than in the Song Mansion.

But he was sad for Chu Dancheng, wronged for Chu Dancheng, a father is not like a father, not to mention getting mixed up with an adopted son, and making trouble for his own son everywhere, what is this called?

Although facing a crowd of elders, Gu Zhiyao was not at all frightened.When Chu Lin asked him to speak, he took half a step forward and saluted the old General Chu and his wife before standing up straight and looking at Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian.

It's okay for Chu Lin to criticize herself alone, but now that Gu Zhiyao is added, Qin Zhengqi can't say it well, and suddenly breaks out in cold sweat.

Gu Zhiyao straightened his back and raised his chin high:

"Yao'er didn't talk about anything else today, not for himself, but just had a good talk with Mr. Qin about how to treat his first wife and parent-child. Only then can it be considered that he has failed the responsibility of being a father."

"Yao'er has been in the Qin Mansion for four years, and he has seen everything. Whose husband and wife have such a clear distinction between the front yard and the backyard? In the past four years, Mr. Qin has never been close to his wife. The servant of the courtyard, before Yao'er entered the mansion, was very reckless with the backyard."

Gu Zhiyao looked at Qin Zhengqi dripping with cold sweat, raised the corners of his mouth, and showed a sneer that was very similar to Chu Dancheng: "I still remember the first time I entered the mansion four years ago, the servants dared to bring leftovers With the face of the wife of the main house, I don't know what kind of family tradition this is in the Qin residence?"

Qin Zhengqi raised his eyes to peek at Old General Chu, and the former Master Taishan was also looking at him with squinted eyes, his expression couldn't tell what he was thinking about, but Qin Zhengqi knew that Master Taishan was determined not to be so simple today. up.He was a little anxious, and hurriedly clasped his fists together: "I didn't know Yong'er and his wife went back to the mansion that day, and the Qin mansion has always not eaten after noon, so that's why..."

"Hey," Gu Zhiyao was amused by Qin Zhengqi's robbing, "We came back from the court, so may I ask if the person who went to court in the morning was not Mr. Qin, but a lonely ghost?"

"Yes, yes..." Qin Zhengqi was at a loss for words, he didn't know what to say.

Gu Zhiyao shook his head, and continued: "This is one; second, how did my brother get the scar on his head, Mr. Qin knows better than anyone else, right?"

Of course Qin Zhengqi knew how the scar on Chu Dancheng's head came from. He smashed it out with a glass bowl.He also saw blood that day, and then Chu Dancheng got a scar on his forehead, leaving this white mark in the shape of a flower.It's just that the hair on his forehead is a little broken, which is not so conspicuous, but people like Gu Zhiyao who are close to Chu Dancheng can notice it.

Qin Zhengqi didn't dare to argue about this matter, he just bowed his head and remained silent.

He didn't reply, but Gu Zhiyao didn't let him go, "In the past, my brother was young, so he was easy to manipulate. Later, when he grew up, Mr. Qin couldn't move him anymore, so he was thrown to the south to be a deadly pearl return envoy." .”

As Gu Zhiyao was talking, he couldn't help but feel sad, his eyes gradually turned red, "Is it a good job to return the pearl envoy? You just watched him find the eldest princess Jingming. I can't stand it anymore, but in this world, whose parents don't want their children to be good? How can a father be jealous of his son?"

"In court, in officialdom, I don't know if you have stumbled with him, but in this Qin residence," Gu Zhiyao gritted his back molars, and the muscles on his cheeks trembled accordingly Moved, "Four years ago, my elder brother just worked in Zhan Shi's mansion. You mixed peach powder into my tea in the front yard. I developed a rash, and then there were people outside. Ghost, even the wife in the house has been infected with such gossip."

"Three years ago, the front yard used the excuse that there was no ink in the study room, so I borrowed it from the backyard study room. If I hadn't stopped me, I'm afraid even my brother's official seal would have been taken away. There is not even a single ink stick in the house, do you need to borrow it from the backyard? Do you want me to tell you what you want to use my brother's official seal in the front yard?"

"The year before last, when we were not here, why did my brother's book get wet? If it wasn't discovered early, it would be disrespectful to hand this book in front of the emperor!"

"Last year, before my elder brother and cousin Qingfeng took the scientific examination together, who was the one who wore night clothes to steal the name card at night?"

"This year, just a few days ago," Gu Zhiyao said, the more sad he felt in his heart, he closed his eyes for a long time before he finally calmed down, "To be honest, brother, who can confide a little bit of the pain in his heart, is also It's only me. But you want to get me away, so that my brother doesn't even have such a person who can confide in his heart!"

Gu Zhiyao's whole heart was tied to Chu Dancheng, he felt sorry for Chu Dancheng being in the Qin mansion, even his own father would not see him well, wanted to harm him, and wished that his own son could fall into the mud.Over the years, each case, although not often said, was all imprinted in Gu Zhiyao's eyes and engraved in his heart.

His voice was like thunder, getting louder and more intense, until it reached everyone's heart in the dining room.
