Chapter 639 Gu Ji
"Major General, there is no one in the front hall!"
"Young Master, there is no one in the courtyard!"
"Major General, the study——"
Several guards came and went, reporting to the stunned newlyweds.
When talking about the latter part, Yuwen Heng was a little annoyed, "No one again?"
The Gu family is amazing! So amazing! Such a huge mansion, dozens of people, just disappeared as if out of thin air.
The house was empty and no trace was left.
“…”
The armored guard was about to give a detailed report when he was coldly rebuked by his young master.
He paused for a moment and said hurriedly, "Reporting to the young master, there is indeed no one in the study, but I found a letter!"
As he spoke, the guard raised both his hands, with a scroll lying across the middle of his palms.
The scroll had no rope, no paint seal, and no markings. It was just rolled up casually.
But, this seemingly random thing is the only clue left by the Gu family.
Yuwen Heng snatched it away, unfolded it, and lines of vigorous and powerful flying white calligraphy came into view.
Yuwen Heng read ten lines at a glance and finished it quickly.
Gu Youyi also reacted. She looked at Yuwen Heng with hope in her eyes and asked anxiously, "My dear, whose letter is this?"
“But, but my——” relatives? Gu Youyi was indeed not as smart as Gu Qingcheng, but she was not stupid either.
She could still understand that she had been abandoned and became a forlorn child of the family.
She originally thought that she was in a difficult situation with no one to help her, but the appearance of this letter gave her hope again.
Mother and father, they wouldn't be so cruel!
Perhaps it was the eldest son’s pressure that forced my father and mother to do so.
The eldest son's wife is really afraid that the second son's wife will give birth to a queen who will suppress them, so they just...
Gu Youyi was in a state of confusion, filled with fear, resentment, and fantasies.
She stared at the scroll in Yuwen Heng's hand, anxiously waiting for the answer.
Yuwen Heng didn't say anything, but handed the scroll directly to Gu Youyi.
Gu Youyi hurriedly took it and after seeing the handwriting, she shouted happily, "It's my father's handwriting!"
This is her biological father, so Gu Youyi naturally recognizes his handwriting.
Moreover, when she was a child, Gu Youyi was held in Gu Ji's arms, and he held her hand while she studied and practiced calligraphy.
From childhood to adulthood, some of the calligraphy copies that Gu Youyi used to practice calligraphy were written by Gu Ji himself.
For these reasons, although Gu Youyi didn't like it very much, she also practiced Feibai quite well.
She was so familiar with her father's handwriting that she could recognize it at a glance.
After cheering, Gu Youyi began to read the letter quickly -
The letter was written to Yuwen Heng.
In the letter, Gu Ji expressed regretfully that they were, after all, people of the Southern Dynasty, and although they were far away from the Southern Dynasty, they were reluctant to leave their homeland.
"Although Liangyuan is beautiful, it is not my hometown!"
After reading this sentence, Gu Youyi's first reaction was: Dad is actually homesick? This is too ridiculous.
They have been in the Northern Dynasty for nearly ten years. The first one or two years were so difficult, but they never said they missed home.
The family finally gained a firm foothold and successfully integrated into the power center of the Northern Dynasty. As a result, my father and his family suddenly realized that this was not their hometown and they wanted to go home?
Excuse!
All excuses!
Father and the others had clearly given up on the Northern Dynasty and her, so—
Realizing this, Gu Youyi suddenly felt angry.
Her chest heaved violently and a fierce light began to appear in her eyes.
She didn't care about the content later.
What is the point of returning to your homeland? You have to separate from your family.
He also said that although Li Nu was married, she was still a daughter of the Gu family.
If the general is tired of her and abandons her, do not hurt her. Just write a letter of divorce and send her out of the general's mansion, and Gu's people will take her away!
"He's cursing me! My father is clearly cursing me for an unhappy marriage."
"How could I be rejected by my husband? To him, I am a treasure, a good wife, and a military strategist!"
"...Look down on me! Father clearly looks down on me!"
It would be fine if the eldest wife didn't take her seriously, but how come even her own father--
Yes!
So what if they are your biological children?
When it was time to give up, he did it right away! "Good! Very good!"
"A father is kind and a daughter is filial. My father treated me so cruelly, so don't blame me, his daughter, for being unfilial!"
"Today you leave me alone, tomorrow I will rule the world, and you will not come back to find your daughter!"
The more Gu Youyi thought about it, the angrier she became. Her delicate little face was twisted with resentment.
"...Master Taishan has a kind and loving fatherly heart."
Yuwen Heng did not notice anything unusual about his new wife, his thoughts were still on the handwritten letter.
The Gu family did abandon Gu Youyi.
However, Gu Ji did not completely ignore Gu Youyi.
He was worried that the sudden disappearance of his family would implicate Gu Youyi, and he was also worried that without her natal family, Gu Youyi would have a hard time in her husband's family.
So Gu Ji kept the letter.
On the surface, it seemed that Yuwen Heng was given the right to "divorce" his wife at any time, but in reality, it was a retreat to advance, a "warning" -
Although the Gu family left, they still had some staff in the Northern Dynasty and Pingcheng.
Maybe I can't stir up the storm, but there is no problem in protecting Gu Youyi.
Furthermore, the Gu family did escape from the Northern Dynasty, but they did not disappear from this world.
They returned to the Southern Dynasty.
Based on the way the Gu family was able to disappear out of thin air in the Northern Dynasty, it is not difficult to guess that the Gu family must have had powerful support.
They returned to the Southern Dynasty not to escape, but to return to the center of power.
One day, the Gu family might become an important family in the Southern Dynasty.
If Yuwen Heng really treated Gu Youyi badly, the Gu family would never let him go.
Of course, this is all “later”.
Even Gu Ji himself didn’t know what the future would be like or when it would come.
His words were more like "empty talk", but they still showed his attitude, and that of the entire Gu family - Gu Youyi was not an orphan without a father, a mother, or a family!
Think before you bully her!
Such unfounded threats have no substantive significance for the time being.
However, it is undeniable that Yuwen Heng, who had just felt secretly disappointed that his wife had become an outcast of the family, saw hope again after reading this handwritten letter.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
It’s good enough that the Gu family cares about Gu Youyi!
Even if it's just a very small part, it's better than giving it up completely! But Gu Youyi doesn't think so.
Or perhaps, with her intelligence and mind, she was not yet able to realize Gu Ji's good intentions.
When Gu Youyi heard Yuwen Heng say something about a "kind father's heart", she instinctively resisted and refuted, "Kind father? Humph, he is not my kind father!"
"He treats Gu Qing better than his daughter, me!"
"Well, if they don't want me, I don't want them either!"
"From now on, I will cut ties with the Gu family—"
Gu Youyi said this with resentment. This time, in front of Yuwen Heng, she no longer had any disguise and revealed her true appearance.
Yuwen Heng: ...Li Nu should just be angry!
She was so smart, how could she not see the painstaking efforts of her father-in-law? Yuwen Heng tried to tell himself this, but his wife's twisted appearance and stubborn tone still planted a seed in his heart.
At some point in time, it may break out of the ground and have a huge impact.
…
Through the secret passage, thirty or forty Gu family servants successfully left Pingcheng.
A second group of troops had already arrived on the hillside outside the city to meet them.
After changing clothes and making disguises, the group blended into the caravan and started heading south.
"Just leaving like that?"
The carriage was shaking. Xiao leaned against the window, looking at the distant city, feeling a little melancholy.
After all, this is the place where I have lived for several years, and it can be considered my second hometown.
They had fled here in a panic and were now leaving in a hurry.
Oh, this life is really wonderful.
If the Southern Dynasty was still ruled by the Xiao family, the Xiao family might not have been so melancholy and confused.
If that were the case, she would be eager to go home.
Unfortunately, the Southern Dynasty had changed its master, and as a princess of the previous dynasty, she had an awkward identity and her situation was still difficult.
When she returned again, the home was no longer hers, but instead it aroused the sadness and resentment in her heart.
"Yes! Aqing has arranged everything!"
"Leave Pingcheng and head straight to Jincheng. Jincheng has a port with large ships docked there."
"Let's take a boat to Guangcheng, and then go to Lingnan via Guangcheng."
Gu Yi was not that sad.
For him, the Northern Dynasty or the Southern Dynasty were just a stage for him and the Gu family to perform.
The Southern Dynasty is more suitable for the development of the Gu family, so let's return to the Southern Dynasty.
Everything about the Northern Dynasty was abandoned by Gu Yi the moment he left Pingcheng.
He had even begun to plan how to help Aqing govern the area and consolidate his territory after arriving in Lingnan.
Sentimental?
Melancholy and confusion? Not true! At this moment, Gu Yi only had an excited mood and a passion.
Even if he wanted to change the topic and chat a little, he would not focus on the abandoned Bei Chao, but -
"I don't know if Xie has woken up yet!"
"If she wakes up, she will definitely cry and make a fuss with Aji!"
For the Gu family, Xie has become like a troublemaker.
But they had to take the person away.
There is no way. The more unstable the factors are, the more we have to control them in our own hands.
Xie is not Gu Youyi, she cannot be abandoned just like that.
Xie was Gu Ji's first wife and gave birth to several children for him.
Even if Gu Ji wrote a letter of divorce and left her in Northern Dynasty, it would still bring trouble to the Gu family.
Gu Ji must consider the children.
The relationship between husband and wife can be severed, but what about the relationship between mother and child?
As long as Xie does not remarry, she will still be the child's mother.
If someone takes advantage of her to cause trouble, the ones who will be embarrassed and hurt in the end are the children of the second wife!
"…Are you awake?"
"We have already left Pingcheng. If you are unwilling, I can send you back to Pingcheng after we board the ship."
"But before that, I will give you a letter of divorce, and you will also have to write a letter of severance from your children."
Sitting in the carriage, seeing Xie slowly waking up, Gu Ji didn't hesitate and directly told her his arrangements.
Xie: ...
She originally wanted to cry and make a fuss, grab Gu Ji's clothes and call him a bastard and a heartless person.
But, Gu Ji's words completely silenced her.
Well, she was indeed partial to her daughter, but she had never thought of divorcing her husband and severing ties with her other children!
