Gu Fei said nothing.
Yes, when he saw the word "solitary minister" written by Uncle dumb, all the doubts accumulated for many years were explained.
His father, obviously, could use softer means to get everything he wanted, but he chose the most difficult road.
Before, he only felt that his father was blinded by power, so he would do so many unreasonable things.
But now it seems that his father knew the consequences from the beginning.
His father did it on purpose.
Because a solitary minister is to stand on the opposite side of everyone, walk alone on a thorny road and move forward with a heavy load. Even if he knows that there is an abyss ahead, he must not retreat.
Gu Fei said, "my father is a good man."
This sentence is very light, but Jiang Weiwei clearly feels the heavy feelings hidden in that sentence.
Jiang slightly rubbed his cheek and silently comforted him.
Throughout the afternoon, you siniang, a Tao, Xiu'er, he Xia, Liu Yun and others were making dumplings. They made a lot of dumplings. When it was getting dark, all these dumplings were put into the pot and fished out, giving off an attractive smell.
These dumplings are the staple food for the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve.
Jiang Weiwei and Gu Fei go downstairs.
At this time, Gu Fei had recovered as before. No one could see that he had just cried in the room.
A group of people sat around the table, eating hot and fragrant dumplings, in a happy atmosphere.
In this era, there are neither spring festival galas nor fireworks. There are firecrackers, but that thing is not only expensive, but also very dangerous. It is easy to blow up. Adults will not let children play, so the new year's eve of this era is very calm.
After everyone had enough to eat and drink, they sat around the brazier to keep warm and chatted while drinking tea. They didn't finish the task of keeping the year old until midnight.
Because it was too late, Gu Fei didn't let uncle dumb go back and let him stay in the health hall for the night.
They got up and went back to the house to sleep. Uncle dumb was the last to get up.
He silently extinguished the charcoal fire in the brazier, checked the doors and windows of each room and made sure they were closed. Then he went up to the second floor with an oil lamp.
At this time, Fu Qimeng sat up from the bed.
As soon as he patted the bed board, he shouted, "come on!"
Zhao Zhong, Zhao Wu and Zhao Cheng who slept next door all ran over.
The three didn't even wear clothes and shoes. They looked at Fu Qi nervously and asked what was the matter?
Fu Qi had already sat up, wearing a coat and holding a Buddha bead in his hand. He looked very solemn: "I remember who Gu Qianjun is!"
The three guards all looked confused: "who?"
Fu Qi said, "Qianjun is his calligraphy, and his full name is Gu Zheng."
In the southern Chu Dynasty, there were tens of millions of people who didn't know who Gu Qianjun was, but only a few people who didn't know Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng was the first assistant minister of the previous term. He was an official with integrity and power. He was a real extreme minister. He was below one person and above ten thousand people. Even today's son of heaven was helped up by him.
In order to consolidate the throne, the young emperor was even forced to recognize Gu Zheng as an adoptive father. When he saw Gu Zheng, he had to bow down and salute and respectfully shout "father emperor".
Although the owl hero ended up miserable and died without a whole body, he left a heavy mark in the history of Southern Chu.
So many people still remember him after he died for so many years.
As Fu Qi turned the Buddha beads, he said, "no wonder Gu Fei is so excellent, but he refused to enter the court as an official. There is such a big treacherous official's father. He certainly doesn't dare to enter the court as an official. If someone finds out, he can't escape death."
Zhao Zhong couldn't help saying, "Gu Zheng was sentenced to be beheaded by the whole family. It's reasonable that his wife and children should have died. How could he appear in Yunshan village? Did someone secretly let their mother and son go? If that's the case, we'll have to report the matter to the emperor and catch all the missing fish. "
Their voices were very low, but they were still heard by the dumb uncle with extremely sharp hearing.
Uncle dumb's heart sank.
He had thought that as long as Fu Qi didn't cause trouble and left quickly, he would think that Fu Qi had never been here and everyone was safe.
But now Fu Qi has found the secret of Gu's family.
In that case, Fu Qi has no need to live!
Uncle dumb's right hand turned up and down, and four poisonous needles appeared from his sleeve. The poison was extremely overbearing and sealed his throat with blood!
He stood at the door of Fu Qi's room. Even across the door, he could judge the specific positions of the four people in the room with his sharp hearing.
Uncle dumb's eyes showed a killing intention.
Just as he was about to do it, a big hand suddenly stretched out from the side and pressed his arm.
Uncle dumb made a move and looked around. He saw that the visitor was Gu Fei.
Gu Fei shook his head at him and motioned him not to mess around.
Dumb uncle was very worried. Those people already knew the secret of the family. If they revealed the whereabouts of the young master and wife, the whereabouts of the young master and wife would be exposed.
He can't watch the young master and his wife in danger!
Gu Fei made a silent movement, and then pricked up his ears to listen to the movement in the room.
In the room, Fu Qi was still sitting on the edge of the window.
After hearing Zhao Zhong's words, he meditated for a long time before opening his mouth.
"Forget it."
Zhao Zhong didn't know why: "how can we forget such a serious thing? Everyone can see how much trouble Gu Zheng brought to the imperial court at the beginning. It was not easy for the emperor to remove Gu Zheng. If the grass was cut and the roots were not removed, it would be born again in the spring wind! "
Fu Qi sighed, "you don't understand. If the emperor really wants to cut down the roots, Gu Fei and his mother can't escape the chase."
Not only Zhao Zhong, but also Zhao Wu and Zhao Cheng were stunned.
"Why did the emperor let go of the family's remaining sins? Is it hard for the son of heaven to be soft hearted? "
Fu Qi said slowly, "it's not easy to be soft hearted. I guess the emperor once had a private deal with Gu Zheng. It should be what price Gu Zheng paid to let the emperor let go of his wife and children. So over the years, Gu Fei and his mother can live safely in Yunshan Village. There is no one who came to chase them."
Zhao Wu asked curiously, "what is the price that can make the emperor compromise?"
Fu Qi shook his head: "I don't know. Gu Zheng and the son of heaven are the only insiders. Unfortunately, Gu Zheng is dead, so now there are only the son of heaven who knows the inside story in the world."
Outside the door, Gu Fei heard this, and his heart became more and more heavy.
He once hated his father very much, but he paid a heavy price in order to save his and his mother's lives.
Seeing that he was in a low mood, uncle dumb raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder to show comfort.
