Chapter 96 Chapter 96 Luck.
==Chapter 96==
Early in the morning, Gu Yushi went to the palace to meet the emperor.
In Mingxinxuan, Feng Wenyu lowered her eyes and looked through the policy paper sent by her second brother. The previous conversation with her second brother came to her mind, making her purse her lips unconsciously.
When she saw the letter that Gu Yu took out, she immediately thought of these strategies.
How many people are familiar with her handwriting?
Among these people, there was one who was very good at copying other people's handwriting, and she almost subconsciously locked on to who wrote the letter.
Before Feng Wenyu could give these strategies to his second brother, a letter came from the old house, and Feng Wenyu learned the whole truth from it - Xie Zhujing was indeed involved.
They deliberately planned for the Fifth Prince to attack Gu Yu, but now the evidence is irrefutable, and the Fifth Prince and his followers can no longer cause any trouble.
The Feng family had already placed their bet on the Sixth Prince long before, and this incident would only benefit the Feng family.
And nothing really happened to Gu Yushi, and on the surface everything seemed to be beneficial and harmless.
In response, Feng Wenyu remained silent.
Is there really no harm at all?
In that assassination, if Gu Yu had not been able to dodge in time, perhaps she would have found a dead person in the end.
Feng Wenyu inexplicably thought of Gu Yushi's broken leg.
Because he missed the palace examination due to a broken leg, Xie Zhujing and his elder brother stole the limelight in the examination and took the first two places. It is difficult to explain how much benefit the Feng family received as a result.
To the outside world, Yan Yunhe bore the stigma, and Gu Yushi had to endure a year of difficult rehabilitation before he could get out of bed and walk again.
In that incident, Yan Yunhe was at fault, and the Feng family deliberately let him off the hook. Even Feng Wenyu himself couldn't tell whether the Feng family had secretly instigated the incident.
At that time, Gu Yushi was already engaged to her.
But how could a son-in-law be compared with the eldest grandson of the Feng family? Moreover, Xie Zhujing was also a third-generation descendant of the Feng family.
That year, when she saw Gu Yu lying sick in bed, she couldn't help crying out loud. How much of it was out of heartache and how much was out of self-blame? She even felt a little sorry for herself.
For the sake of the eldest brother, the Feng family gave up on her once.
Benefit.
Feng Wenyu knew very well that this time the Feng family would still choose to suppress Xie Zhujing's actions. Now that things had come to this, exposing this matter would only alienate Gu Yushi from the Feng family.
This is not what the Feng family wants.
Feng Wenyu felt that her heart was filled with unspeakable emotions, but she didn't know how to relieve it.
Her father and elder brother's words made her inexplicably irritated and depressed. Feng Wenyu lowered her eyes and walked out of the living room without saying a word.
Feng Wenzhou glanced at her back, frowned slightly, and then listened to what Feng Rongyu and his elder brother said, and suddenly said:
"The old man is currently relying on his affection for A-mei to manipulate him, but if one day his affection for A-mei fades, have you ever thought about what will happen to A-mei then?"
The word "friendship" is ridiculous.
People's hearts are fickle. Who can guarantee that Gu Yushi's feelings for A Mei will always remain the same?
Once the feelings fade, will Gu Yushi remember the Feng family's plan today? How will A Mei cope with it then?
Feng Rongyu and Feng Wenxu suddenly lost their voices.
Feng Rongyu frowned, saw what he meant, and asked in a serious tone, "What do you think?"
Feng Wenzhou put down the cup and said coldly:
"Whatever is to be done, is to be done."
Gu Yushi is not a fool. Just seeing him hand the envelope to A-mei today, you can tell that he already has some guesses in his heart.
The Feng family's inaction at this time was just to force Gu Yushi to give in.
Relying on A-mei, he is fearless.
And the friendship between people will eventually be exhausted.
******
To be honest, when Gu Yushi learned that Lord Feng had invited him, he was not surprised at all.
In his previous life, he and Xie Zhujing worked together for twelve years. There were some things he knew better than Feng Wenyu.
When he received the letter, he already had some guesses in his mind.
Despite the difficult situation, he still chose to go to Qingning Temple. He didn't dare to gamble on the one in ten thousand possibility that it was true, but he had selfish motives, which was also true.
He knew Feng Wenyu.
Having the chance to do it all over again, she was engaged to Xie Zhujing, but then broke off the engagement. The reason she gave for breaking off the engagement was hard to explain. She must have felt guilty for having let Xie Zhujing reach this point today, and felt that she had delayed Xie Zhujing.
But after this incident, how much guilt will Feng Wenyu still feel towards Xie Zhujing?
He never minded the Feng family's calculations and exploitation, and was good at getting what he wanted from them.
The Feng family wants benefits, but what he wants from the beginning to the end is only one person.
In the case of Yan Yunhe, he was the victim.
In the case of Xie Zhujing, he was also a victim.
Be it friendship or guilt, Feng Wenyu can only devote her thoughts to him.
Gu Yushi never denied that he was narrow-minded. He couldn't even tolerate the childhood sweetheart relationship between Yan Yunhe, let alone Xie Zhujing who was eyeing him covetously?
Gu Yushi lowered his eyes, and a dark emotion flashed across his eyes. When he raised his head, he was as cold as usual.
It was three days later when Feng Wenyu learned that Gu Yushi had been visited in the old house. By then, the matter had been settled in the court, and at least Xie Zhujing was not involved.
Feng Wenyu couldn't help but lose her voice. Even though she was also a member of the Feng family, she felt that the old house was going too far this time.
Killing someone and asking them to forgive the perpetrator?
She felt guilty towards Xie Zhujing, but this guilt should not be paid for by Gu Yushi!
Feng Wenyu couldn't sit still any longer. She took a deep breath and said:
"Jinshu, prepare the carriage. I need to go to the old house."
It was the same in the previous life and in this life. When she and Gu Yu were husband and wife, wasn't the old house plotting against Gu Yu also plotting against her to some extent?
She is not a fool.
In her previous life, since she was unable to get pregnant, although the Feng family did not ask her to have a surrogate mother, they were also willing to let her choose one of the Feng family's descendants to adopt.
As for the former, Feng Wenyu didn't know whether the Feng family had ever had this idea. After all, even when Gu's mother was dying, she couldn't force Gu Yushi to take a concubine, so how could the Feng family have such means?
At that time, Gu Yushi was the Prime Minister of the dynasty. His careful cultivation and the resources in his hands were enough to allow a person to cross classes.
Feng Wenyu had actually always known this, but apart from not understanding it, this was also one of the reasons why the Feng family had prevented her from getting a divorce.
When the benefits are big enough, what does it matter what her feelings as a married woman are?
But she didn't want to.
It would be fine if it was her second brother, but the group of Feng family members who stayed in the capital didn't care about her feelings at all, and at the same time wanted to benefit from her. How could such a good thing happen in this world!
Outsiders' evaluation of her may be biased.
But there is one thing that is absolutely true, she is indeed a willful person.
After all, she was thinking at that time that even if everything disappeared when she closed her eyes, she would not let this group of people take advantage of her.
Feng Wenyu's mind was in a mess, but she was stopped before she reached the door.
The person who stopped her was none other than Gu Yushi.
Seeing that she looked unhappy, Gu Yushi frowned slightly: "What happened?"
When Feng Wenyu saw him, she immediately felt a sense of disapproval. She bit her tongue and said:
"How on earth did the old house deceive you?"
The word "deceived" came out, which shows her dissatisfaction with the old house.
Hearing this, Gu Yushi raised his eyes in surprise. He always knew that Feng Wenyu cared about the Feng family.
She is a member of the Feng family, and the Feng family built her blood and pride.
Gu Yushi has never been willing to compare who is more important in her heart, him or the Feng family.
To bring shame upon oneself.
But now, she was actually angry about what the Feng family did to him. Gu Yushi was really stunned and surprised. He was stunned for a long while and chose to tell the truth:
"I didn't deceive you."
Lord Feng asked him to come over just to explain everything, including what Xie Zhujing had done.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that the Feng family has given up on Xie Zhujing.
Once this matter involves Xie Zhujing, it will inevitably implicate the Feng family. The fact that the emperor appointed the crown prince but did not let the Feng family get involved has already shown his attitude. If the emperor knew at this time that the Feng family intended to help the sixth prince deal with the fifth prince, what would he think?
Once the prime minister, he actually had two minds.
Even if Xie Zhujing was abandoned, the Feng family would certainly be scrutinized by the emperor.
The Feng family is implicated. What benefits can Feng Wenyu, as a member of the Feng family, get?
This is nothing more than a conspiracy.
Gu Yushi knew it all, but he didn't care. After all, he had gotten what he wanted from this matter, and -
Gu Yushi glanced at Feng Wenyu inconspicuously, and the result was better than he had imagined, wasn't it?
Feng Wenyu never expected to get this answer from Gu Yushi. She was a little dumbfounded. She tried to hold it back, but she couldn't help it:
"Do you know that your good temper will only make people more demanding?"
Gu Yushi glanced at her, lowered his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice, "I'm fine."
"They are your relatives. Since they are family, there are some things that cannot be traced back to the source."
These words made Feng Wenyu speechless.
She lowered her eyes, feeling uncomfortable with an inexplicable emotion.
“…Why is it so?”
Given his current status, why would he compromise?
Feng Wenyu suddenly asked, "Am I troublesome?"
If he married her, he would be doomed to be tied to the Feng family. Unless Gu Yushi could never get up, he would have to help the Feng family in the future.
And as long as he never gains power, the Feng family will not marry her to him.
Gu Yushi frowned, not liking to hear her say such things. He took her hand and pulled her back:
"Ayu, have you heard about the previous dynasty's Emperor Wen of Zhou building the Zhaiyue Tower on Qingyuan Mountain?"
Feng Wenyu was led away by him, his mind full of doubts. Why did he change the topic to this matter?
What does this have to do with her problem?
Feng Wenyu glanced at their intertwined hands and pursed her lips: "I've heard of it."
Qingyuan Mountain is already higher than other places, and the construction of Zhaiyue Tower requires the consumption of manpower and material resources. Outsiders all say that Emperor Wen of Zhou is extravagant.
When she heard Gu Yu say in a calm tone:
"Look, even for the ethereal moonlight, Emperor Wen of Zhou had to expend a vast amount of resources, yet he still couldn't obtain it in the end."
"But I got what I wanted, so no matter how much I paid, it was worth it."
Feng Wenyu was speechless. Of course, she understood the meaning of these words, but she just asked softly:
“Is it really worth it?”
Gu Yushi didn't understand her question, and said with a strange look on his face:
"If there really is someone who wants to marry you but refuses to pay any price, he must be a shameless person."
He comes from a poor family and doesn't want to pay any price, but just wants to marry the granddaughter of the current prime minister?
Why?
Just because of his friendship?
In terms of friendship, does Yan Yunhe have less than him?
For him, this was not a matter of whether it was worth it or not, but a fluke. Fortunately, he was profitable, so he had the ticket to this marriage.
