Chapter 133 If it were you, could you forgive me?
Gu Huailing was too perceptive. He understood everything the first time he saw Mr. Chen.
He stood up and walked to Elder Chen, staring at him. "I'll ask you one last time, where did A Yuan go?"
You could hear a pin drop in the house. No one could bear the consequences of Gu Huailing's anger.
Elder Chen bowed and said calmly, "The master left with the eldest son of his own free will. Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, and the master are not of the same mind. She has suffered too much by your side. I beg you to let her go."
After saying that, he knelt down towards Gu Huailing.
Gu Huailing's eyes darkened, his face seemed to be covered with frost and snow, and his tone was mocking, "Let her go? And then watch her get implicated by Yan Xi?"
Mr. Chen couldn't utter a word.
Gu Huailing dismissed everyone, leaving only Old Chen and him in the room.
"The Chen family of Nanchu are highly skilled in medicine and are devoted to protecting the Saint. Am I wrong, Prime Minister?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Old Chen's eyes, but he did not deny it.
The next moment, Gu Huailing's tone suddenly became sharp, "Someone, take Mr. Chen away."
"The Prime Minister's poison has been half cured, but I still need to detoxify you."
Gu Huailing sneered, "Your Chen family is not the only one in the world with outstanding medical skills. I, the Prime Minister, don't believe that I can't live without you."
There were hurried footsteps. "The Prime Minister, Ye Xingzhang, and Prince Gu, have arrived."
Gu Huailing walked out in the cold air.
Gu Jingchu and Ye Xingzhang were a plot he had set up in advance. Ye Xingzhang was in the Ministry of Revenue and Gu Jingchu was in the Ministry of War.
Once Yizhou is exposed, they can use the Prime Minister's order to execute first and report later.
Large quantities of food and herbs were shipped over.
Both of them traveled at night and were exhausted.
The moment Gu Huailing came out, Gu Jingchu couldn't help but look inside.
Although Ye Xingzhang stood upright, he raised his eyes for a moment.
However, the two did not see the person they wanted to see.
Gu Huailing, draped in a cloak and with a frosty gaze, spoke succinctly, "I'm handing Yizhou over to you two. Do you have any objections?"
"I will follow the orders of the Prime Minister."
They both spoke at the same time.
Gu Huailing didn't look at the two of them again and strode out.
When Gu Huailing was about to step out of the room, Gu Jingchu still plucked up the courage to call him.
"Why didn't Big Brother see Sister-in-law?"
Gu Huailing turned around, his eyes filled with indescribable sharpness, "I'll go pick her up."
The carriage traveled all night and stopped at the first light of day.
Shen Yuan immediately jumped off the carriage.
She no longer felt the emotion and intimacy she had when she first met Yan Xi. All she had was a sense of strangeness and pain.
Yan Xi followed Shen Yuan out of the carriage.
He held the cloak in his hand, but before he could get close to Shen Yuan, she cautiously dodged him.
A trace of hurt flashed across Yan Xi's eyes, and then a layer of gloom covered them.
"Xiao Yuan'er, why are you on guard against Big Brother?"
Chen Yuan looked at Yan Xi's face and couldn't call him "brother".
She was silent for a long time before she spoke, "Has the other half of the antidote been delivered?"
Yan Xi's smiling face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Chen Yuan in silence.
Those peach blossom eyes were too gloomy, and Shen Yuan couldn't see through his thoughts.
Yan Xi scoffed, "Xiao Yuan'er, I regret it. I shouldn't have let you marry Gu Huailing. It doesn't matter. You're still young and don't know how to distinguish love. Gu Huailing is not worthy of you."
Yan Xi looked at Chen Yuan, his tone so gentle that it was frightening.
He extended his hand towards Shen Yuan, "Be good, follow me."
The mountains in front of me are covered by clouds.
Yan Xi chuckled, "There's a formation at the entrance. You can't get in without me leading the way, Yuan'er."
It feels like a paradise inside.
Unlike outside, Yan Xi's gloomy expression faded a little when he arrived here.
He walked in front and said to Shen Yuan, "This place is called Que Mountain. The people who live there are all descendants of Nan Chu. Little Yuan'er, I know it's hard for you to understand me, but I have been patient and dormant for so long, and I will finally take revenge."
Chen Yuan looked at Yan Xi seriously, "Why do you have to be so stubborn? Just like these people in Queshan, they finally have this peaceful life, why do you have to destroy it?"
"Hahaha!"
Yan Xi looked at Shen Yuan and suddenly laughed, "Why do you have to break it?"
"Little Yuan'er, do you know that on the day that Nanchu was destroyed, my father hit his head against the golden palace and died? I was hidden in a secret compartment. After watching my mother being raped, I stabbed myself to death with a candlestick. She stared at me intently as she died, without even closing her eyes."
He looked at Chen Yuan with red eyes, "How can you ask me not to take revenge? I was born with hatred on my shoulders. I can't even die unless I destroy the Great Jin!"
Shen Yuan opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
She is not Yan Xi. If Yan Xi's experience happened to her, she would go crazy.
"Yes, I'm sorry I didn't know this." Chen Yuan said in a very soft voice.
Yan Xi softened his expression and looked at her gently, "Xiao Yuan'er, I don't want you to get involved in all this. Promise me to stay here and wait until everything is over. I will pick you up and leave."
"Then I'll give you a grand wedding that the whole world will envy, okay?"
He looked into Shen Yuan's eyes, his tone exceptionally gentle.
Shen Yuan heard a creepy tone in this gentle tone.
Is Yan Xi crazy? He actually wants to marry her?
Shen Yuan looked at him, his tone changing. "You are my eldest brother!"
Yan Xi raised his hand to touch Chen Yuan's face, but put it down again after it reached mid-air. "We have never been brother and sister. We are not related by blood, so how can we be brother and sister?"
"I know you're not used to it now, it's okay, I'll give you time to adjust."
Yan Xi's words were like a poisonous snake spitting out its core. Shen Yuan felt a cold snake slowly crawling up his back.
Disgusting and sticky.
She looked at Yan Xi, "First, send Gu Huailing's medicine over, and second, I want to see Ah Zhao or I'll leave."
Yan Xi smiled, looking at Chen Yuan with a meaningful smile, "Chen Zhao is also my brother, it's not convenient for you to see him now."
He took a step forward, took Shen Yuan's hand and walked forward, "Be good, as long as you are obedient, not only will you see Shen Zhao, but also your father and mother."
This is not allowing her to see her family, it is threatening her.
The blood in Shen Yuan's body gradually cooled down.
Late at night, Chen Yuan sat alone on the stone steps, her eyes gazing into the distance, her heart full of Gu Huailing.
She might not be afraid that Yan Xi would go back on his word, but as long as Gu Huailing could meet Mr. Chen, he would definitely have a way to control him.
She believed in Gu Huailing.
I heard footsteps behind me, and that feeling of unease came back.
Yan Xi held a bowl of noodle soup in his hand and sat down next to Shen Yuan.
"The dinner wasn't to your liking. I saw you barely ate a bite."
He passed the noodle soup to Shen Yuan and said, "This is the noodle soup made by my eldest brother himself. Come and try it to see if it still tastes like when you were a kid."
The aroma of noodle soup wafted over, but Chen Yuan suddenly felt like vomiting.
She pulled Yan Xi's hand away, held onto the peach tree beside her, and began to vomit violently.
Yan Xi's expression suddenly changed. He grabbed Shen Yuan's wrist and pressed his fingers on it.
He withdrew his hand in just a moment, his face turning cold.
"What's wrong with me?" Shen Yuan felt a little heavy in the head. If he got sick at this time, it would be troublesome.
