Chapter 321 I am also a
chess player in this game of chess. The wind rustles, and the sound of orchestra can be vaguely heard.
Among the six arts of a gentleman, music is also a course in Huaqing Academy.
Yu Tingwan's eyes trembled slightly, but he said nothing.
Maybe he was touched, but not much. More of it was like listening to other people's stories, and being shocked.
There were so many people who wanted the crown prince to die.
Maybe if Gu Fuju had gone there in time when the Yu family was in trouble, said these words to her, and brought her back to the Gu family, things would have been different.
But she is eighteen now.
She has suffered all the sufferings she deserves.
When she was helpless, the Gu family was not there. When
she cried and felt uncomfortable, and curled up in one place, the Gu family was not there either. When
she was tortured by the Hu family and became neither human nor ghost, she had to be on guard, and she had to be humble and humble according to other people's faces. She was no longer as bright and lively as she was in her childhood.
The only thing that supported her over the years was the sweet childhood memories brought to her by Yu's father and mother.
Yu Tingwan still likes all shiny things. Wei Zhao hangs all kinds of gems and gold beads around her waist every day. But when she goes out, she is no longer as proud and delicate as before.
She is no longer carefree and carefree when her parents are still alive.
To be precise, Wei Zhao treats her like a delicate flower just like her parents do. She just accepts the kindness of men.
Yu Tingwan looks calmly at Gu Fuju who is calm opposite her.
It is not easy for ordinary people to become a tutor from a poor family. Especially when the He family was so passive back then.
Gu Fuju: "But I haven't done enough."
"Back then, your mother couldn't sleep at night, and cried all day long looking for you after waking up."
Jiashan was born prematurely, and the fetal position was not stable. The doctors who followed were separated by the abortion, and the birth was really difficult.
There was no hot water, no clean bedding, and the conditions were really bad. In order to give birth to a child, Jiashan had already injured her foundation, and she had to take medicine all day and could hardly get off the bed.
Gu Fuju still remembers it.
The proud person who had never cried in front of him
waited for him to bring the child back every day with red and swollen eyes. But he always came back empty-handed.
[“It’s all my fault. I didn’t take good care of her. She was so well-behaved and never made trouble when she was in my belly. I shouldn’t have gone out and come to look for you.”]
[“I’m not a good mother.”]
[“Fu Ju, I lost our child.”]
[“I heard from the nanny that she was so small and her breathing was weak because she was not full-term. What should I do? It’s so chaotic outside, what should I do with her?”]
Until one day, she cried and made a fuss, and insisted on going downstairs to look for her.
She said she was looking for the child, but when she got downstairs, she was stunned in one place, looking at her flat belly.
[“Fu Ju, I’m seven months pregnant, why haven’t I shown my pregnancy yet?”]
Gu Fu Ju said in a hoarse voice: “Your mother’s spirit has become trance, sometimes clear and sometimes confused.”
On one side was the lost daughter, and on the other side was his wife who was almost crazy.
Gu Fu Ju had forgotten how helpless he was at that time, and how much he regretted why he, as an imperial censor, did not go along with those people.
Why do you have to care about the people who are suffering and have nowhere to seek redress?
Why do you have to be self-righteous and act like an honest official?
"But Duke Zhou still won't let me go."
"Your grandmother was far away in the old house of Dongchu, and she learned about you through him, and then she fell seriously ill."
Yu Tingwan said calmly: "You are too busy and exhausted. In order to comfort your mother and first wife, you picked up a child outside."
"That's part of the reason."
Gu Fuju: "Awu was indeed brought back by me from outside. Famine broke out, and there were too many people eating their own children outside."
On the way to find Yu Tingwan, Gu Fuju saw too many victims who ate human flesh. A big pot of boiling water was used to directly kill the child with a hoe and throw it in to cook.
"Her family may still have some conscience. They didn't eat her but didn't want to raise her, so they threw her into the bushes and ignored her."
"I heard the child crying at that time and thought it was you."
It wasn't.
The child was very heavy and not premature.
"But I still took her back."
"Your mother was in a very bad condition at that time, so she couldn't recognize it. With Awu, although she often cried, she was willing to cooperate and take medicine, and her condition improved."
He also wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to Dongchu to comfort his mother.
Gu Fuju's eyes were full of emotions, and Yu Tingwan couldn't understand.
"I didn't tell anyone that she was an adopted daughter, including your mother."
Only he knew that the child had not been found yet.
Even the servants around Jiashan, Gu Fuju was extremely cautious, and didn't let them serve close to her on the grounds that Jiashan needed to rest and the child was premature and in poor health.
From that time on, he had been playing a chess game that lasted for more than ten years.
He just wanted to make Duke Zhou feel that his plan had failed.
"After returning to Shangjing from Dingdu to take up his post, I would go back and forth to Ze County every year without telling your mother, but too many people in Shangjing were watching my movements, and I was afraid that others would find out and interfere. And I was far away in Shangjing and couldn't reach you, so your safety became more and more difficult to guarantee, so I covered everything up."
"Someone mentioned the Gu family, but they only knew that the girl of the Gu family was lost, but was found."
After saying that, he paused, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
"But I didn't know that I was also a chess piece in this game."
"Back then, your grandfather sent me five secret guards to follow me to Dingdu, but one of them had already been bribed by Duke Zhou."
"Because your grandfather was kind to him, he accepted Duke Zhou's order to get rid of you, but he couldn't bear to do it himself, so he threw you into the forest and tore off a piece of his clothes to make it look like you were dead."
"That forest happened to be the only way for Yu Jingcheng to escort his convoy. Before he went far, Yu Jingcheng followed the crying sound and found the dirty baby under the tree."
"He didn't have the intention to kill you and let you be taken away."
"But I didn't know it at the time."
"Afterwards, he continued to look for you everywhere with his family servants. But no one saw that he had evil intentions
." Even if he did something evil and his face was unnatural, not many people paid attention to him.
Even if they paid attention, they wouldn't think too much when they saw that his face was not right.
At that time, how many people had the right face?
There was chaos outside, and there was no order. During this time, many of the servants who went out to look for her had problems and never came back.
"When I took Awu back, he didn't know there was a trick."
I thought Gu Fuju had really found her.
But after so long, how could the secret guards not be up to something? But the news that the Gu family found their daughter and did not do a good job had already reached Duke Zhou's ears. The secret guards were confused about what was true and what was false. They were afraid that Gu Fuju would find out, so they simply did not investigate further.
Nine years passed like this.
Duke Zhou realized that there was something else behind the incident that year, and he was furious. But he could no longer take action against Gu Fuju, who was rising step by step and had become a threat.
He even tried to get close to him when they met. He
could only take action against the Yu family.
"The fire was set by the man sent by Duke Zhou."
At this point, Gu Fuju's tone turned cold.
If it weren't for Yu Jingcheng, Yu Tingwan would have died long ago.
But the couple of the Yu family were buried in the sea of fire.
