"I know it's impossible for a person to please everyone," Gu Xinglang whispered to his grandmother, "but even if you don't like the princess, please don't embarrass her. After all, the princess is our family's savior."
The old lady looked at Gu Xinglang, and after a while she burst into tears and said, "Are you saying that I am ungrateful? Who am I doing this for?"
"The princess is very good to me," Gu Xinglang stood up and said, "If you don't want to listen to what I say, then think about the emperor. Just because the princess doesn't care doesn't mean the emperor doesn't care."
Gu Xinglang pushed the door open and left. The old lady was lying on the bed, mumbling to herself with tears in her eyes: "You regard her as your life, but what does she regard you as? When your grandfather and I are gone, your two brothers will have their own families to take care of. By then, will Yu Linglong be able to take good care of you?"
The old lady became more and more sad as she spoke. She couldn't defeat the royal family, her grandson didn't listen to her, and instead blamed her for being nosy. She was worried to death, but what did she gain?
Gu Xinglang came out of the old lady's bedroom and walked in the corridor, where he met Madam Xu who was visiting the old lady with Madam Sun.
"Mother," after paying respect to Madam Xu, Gu Xinglang called Madam Sun again, "Sister-in-law."
Mrs. Xu asked, "How is your grandmother?"
"She's fine," Gu Xinglang's voice immediately turned cold.
Mrs. Xu said, "Well, what about you?"
"I'm fine too," Gu Xinglang said, looking at Madam Sun, and his tone softened a lot, saying, "Thank you for taking care of the family matters, sister-in-law."
Mrs. Sun said, "Of course."
"Brother is on his way back to Beijing." Gu Xinglang had the chance to tell Madam Sun about Gu Xingnuo until this moment, and whispered, "Brother is fine, sister-in-law, you don't have to worry."
After hearing what Gu Xinglang said, Madam Sun immediately showed joy on her face and asked, "Did Third Brother see your eldest brother?"
"Yes," Gu Xinglang nodded.
"Amitabha, may the Bodhisattva bless you," Mrs. Xu chanted with her hands clasped together.
Gu Xinglang felt disgusted and bowed to Madam Sun before walking forward.
Mrs. Xu saw Gu Xinglang was about to leave, so she hurriedly asked, "Where did you meet your eldest brother?"
Gu Xinglang stopped, turned around and looked at Madam Xu and said, "Mother, if one day the Buddha wants to kill me, will you destroy the Buddha or watch me die?"
"What, what?" Mrs. Xu staggered back a step.
Mrs. Sun also looked confused and said, "Third brother, Buddha is merciful. Why would Buddha want to kill you?"
Gu Xinglang only looked at Madam Xu.
Mrs. Xu's face turned pale and she lowered her head.
Gu Xinglang walked quickly forward and disappeared in a short while.
Mrs. Sun didn't turn to look at her mother-in-law until she saw Gu Xinglang disappear. This sight frightened her again. Mrs. Xu looked in pain and seemed unable to stand and was about to faint.
"Mother!" Mrs. Sun hurriedly supported Mrs. Xu.
Mrs. Xu was helped by her eldest daughter-in-law to sit on the railing of the corridor. She waved her hand to Mrs. Sun who was about to call for a doctor and whispered, "Don't call anyone. I'm fine."
Madam Sun said, "Mother, my third brother rushed all the way back from Zhuque, he must be tired, please don't take his words seriously."
Is her son talking nonsense to her because he is tired? Mrs. Xu's eyes were empty, she felt that it was true, but also that it was not.
The servants in the mansion had not had time to clean the corridor, so there was a thick layer of dust on the railings. After calming herself down, Madam Sun couldn't bear to see it anymore and wanted to help Madam Xu up, but Madam Xu couldn't stand up at this moment.
Buddha wants to kill me. Mother, are you going to destroy Buddha or just watch me die?
Gu Xinglang's question rang in Mrs. Xu's ears again, causing her to suddenly have a splitting headache.
Seventeen years ago, she carried Gu Xinglang to the Eternal Life Temple. It was snowing in the mountains that day, and she did not find it difficult to walk from the mountain path to the Eternal Life Temple.
"Your Gu family is destined to lose one person. You want your husband to live, so who do you want to die?"
"Don't tell me that you died. The person who died in your place can only be the descendants of the Gu family."
"You want to exchange your son for your husband? Infatuated people are really the most hateful."
"Female donor, you'd better think about it again. This child was born after ten months of pregnancy. He is also your husband's flesh and blood. Can you really bear it?"
"Even if you save your husband by doing this, he will definitely hate you if he knows the truth. Is it worth it?"
"Well, if you are determined, I will grant your wish."
"Hand over Gu Xinglang."
"I'm asking you one last time, do you really not regret it?"
…
Madam Xu covered her ears with her hands, not wanting to listen to the voices anymore, but the voices kept lingering around her ears like a devilish sound.
"Mother?" Mrs. Sun screamed.
Mrs. Xu fell from the corridor railing and fell out of the corridor.
Xianzong was sitting in the side room of Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang's courtyard at this time. He looked at the young man in front of him for a long time before saying, "You, are you Wen Fenglin?"
Yu Xiao: "His face hasn't changed, Dad, don't you recognize him?"
Xianzong asked, "Master, why do you have long hair?"
After hearing what Emperor Xianzong said, Yu Xiaoxiao remembered that Wen Fenglin was bald. She was so used to seeing Emperor Wen that she had never thought about it.
Xianzong said, "Were you kicked out of the mountain by your master?" If that's not the case, how do you explain that Wen Fenglin started growing his hair?
"Tell my father about your situation," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Master Fenglin, "I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly."
After hearing what Yu Xiaoxiao said, Xianzong suddenly wanted to say thank you to his daughter. Thank you for not saying anything!
Master Fenglin told Emperor Xianzong about his own affairs.
After hearing this, Xianzong opened his mouth and remained silent for a long time.
Yu Xiaoxiao slapped the table and said, "What are you thinking about?"
Xianzong touched his head and said, "I suddenly feel that I can return to Fengtian alive from the Yongsheng Temple, it is really the blessing of my ancestors."
Jade Little...
Master Fenglin...
This guy just thought of this?
Emperor Xianzong looked at Master Fenglin and sighed, saying, "The last time I saw Wuhuan, I knew you wouldn't have a good ending. Now it seems that's true."
Yu Xiao: "If you knew it earlier, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Xianzong had an expression that said, "I know, but I just won't tell you. I just want to see you suffer a bad end."
Young Master Fenglin regretted coming to find Yu Linglong.
"Come in, imperial physician." This time, without the need for Yu Xiao, Xianzong himself called the imperial physicians into the room.
Several imperial doctors came into the room in response.
"No need to bow," Xianzong said to the imperial doctors, "Come and check the young man's pulse."
Master Fenglin placed his left hand on the table.
The imperial doctors did not dare to ask more questions and stepped forward one by one to check Young Master Fenglin's pulse.
Xianzong whispered to Yuxiao who was sitting next to him: "Don't just stand there and watch. Get ready."
Yu Xiao: "What are you doing?"
Xianzong rolled his eyes at the silly girl and whispered, "If he lies to us, just beat him to death without mercy."
