Chapter 163 Ye Family's Attitude
Gu Ruanci ignored Zhou Zhili and just looked at the Zhou Yuxiu brothers.
Zhou Yuzhi blushed slightly. "We're here today to ask you to save our third brother. Why are you wasting time dwelling on the past? As long as you can save him, we'll naturally do whatever you want."
"If you can't save her, go back and prepare for her funeral."
Gu Ruanci did not hesitate at all, nor did she feel any sympathy for Zhou Yuqi.
This is their karma, there is no need for you to bear the consequences.
"This is a life. Do you have to do this? It happened to my grandmother too. You were the only one who could save her, but you refused to help. Do you really want to see the entire Zhou family die in front of you?"
Zhou Yuzhi still made a rebuke. Whenever he thought of his grandmother's death, his heart ached.
"You, the Zhou family, really opened my eyes. You brought a doomed man to me and forced me to treat him. I was just telling the truth, but instead of chasing the murderer, you kept talking nonsense to me and blaming me for being cruel. I think you are the truly cruel ones. If you had the time, you should have taken him home to get to know him well and prepare for the funeral. You've been talking nonsense to me for so long, and no one noticed that he was already dead?"
Gu Ruanci's words made the Zhou family panic instantly.
When they went to check, they found that Zhou Yuqi had indeed stopped breathing and his pupils had already dilated.
Zhou Yuzhi turned around and shouted to Gu Ruanci, "I know you have Angong Niuhuang Wan. It's a life-saving medicine. It's made from the bezoar you got when you won the last Dou Yinlü competition. If you hadn't messed with the situation, it would have belonged to your third brother. Now you're not willing to give it to him to save his life?"
Gu Ruanci could no longer laugh. It was true that the people in the Zhou family could never understand what people said.
"So? You're planning to blame me for this, right? As long as I take responsibility for your third brother's life, your Zhou family can still live in harmony with the Ye family, sharing the same hatred and enemies. You can even drink and celebrate this traitor who has begun to realize his mistakes. Sacrificing him so that both families can continue to whitewash the situation is truly admirable."
Gu Ruanci's words were like a knife stabbing Zhou Zhili's heart, leaving Zhou Yuzhi speechless.
"Are you sure you want to keep leaving a dead person in front of our Gu family's door?" Gu Yutang asked.
When the Zhou family heard this, they were all shocked.
Zhou Yuxiu took another look at Gu Yutang. Although they were both princes, there seemed to be a huge gap between him and Gu Yutang.
Now he is still frustrated in the city defense camp, while the other party has already become a general guarding a region.
He was not able to speak as confidently as Gu Yutang in the Zhou family, but looking at the reaction of the Gu family, it was tacitly agreed that Gu Yutang could represent their position.
"My wedding is coming up in a few days. The Zhou family is trying to bring bad luck to our Gu family. Are they trying to make us their enemy?"
Gu Yutang added that this time Zhou Zhili really felt the pressure.
He raised his head and saw that there was indeed no trace of emotion or pity in Gu Ruanci's eyes. She was really cruel to the Zhou family.
"Gu Ruanci, you are really great."
He said this in a very dissatisfied tone.
Gu Ruanci retorted, "You are not as good as Lord Zhou. Your son was murdered, yet you still have the energy to chat with me here. If you had some backbone, you could carry your son's body to the Ye family to ask for justice. Maybe I would look at you with new eyes."
After saying that, Gu Ruanci ignored the Zhou family members and just gave Zhou Qinzhu a blank look before turning back.
The Gu family members went back, leaving a few capable servants to guard the gate and ordered them to leave immediately.
The Zhou family did not get the result they wanted, and had to accept the fact that Zhou Yuqi had passed away. They couldn't help but feel sad.
"Why? Why did my third brother die? He was fine before he left. Our Zhou family is already unlucky enough, why did this happen to my third brother?"
Zhou Zhili finally said helplessly: "Go home..."
After all, he didn't have the courage to cause trouble directly at the Ye family. Now the Zhou family has lost the emperor's favor, his sister has lost favor in the palace, and the third prince's side is already in danger. If he falls out with the Ye family at this time, they will probably be even more isolated and helpless.
Zhou Yuxiu and Zhou Yuzhi had no choice but to follow behind dejectedly, carefully helping Zhou Yuqi wipe the blood off his face.
"Third brother, have a safe journey. You will have no regrets in the future."
"Third brother, you are so cruel..."
The two of them tried to distract themselves in this way so as to avoid having to deal with the complicated looks of the people around them.
Zhou Qinzhu followed carefully, but the worst thing still happened. Zhou Yuqi did not survive, and Gu Runci did not help at all, so there was no way to blame her.
When they got home, they found that Ye Lanxin had already brought all the people in the Ye family who had a say.
Ye Keguan felt extremely distressed when he saw Zhou Yuqi's miserable condition. After all, this was his grandson.
"Yuqi, what's wrong? Why are you hiding from grandpa for no reason? Why don't you let him see you?"
Mrs. Pan also sighed: "This child has such a miserable life. He was abandoned by his mother since he was young. Now, before he even has the coming-of-age ceremony, this accident has happened. Sigh..."
Ye Cheng didn't say anything, he knew what had happened.
Qin Kerou supported Pan and said, "Mother, you and father should sit down first. If you keep looking at me like this, the child will not be at peace when he leaves."
Zhou Zhili held back, wanting to hear what the Ye family wanted to say.
Ye Chi and Shang Hongmian didn't say anything. When they learned that Zhou Yuqi was dead, they were completely dumbfounded.
At this time, Ye Chengyun was tied up and kneeling in front of everyone. Next to him were Ye Chenglei and Ye Chengchu. Ye Lingyue did not appear.
Zhou Zhili said nothing and let the Ye family act out their show.
He knew in his heart that if the lips and teeth are gone, they will be interdependent. If he investigated Ye Chengyun too deeply, it would definitely affect his relationship with the Ye family.
Zhou Yuxiu and Zhou Yuzhi thought more simply and directly. With their third brother's life standing in the way, the relationship between their two families could never go back to what it was before.
"Second uncle, second aunt, what does this mean?"
Zhou Yuxiu asked. On the way from leaving the Gu family, he was thinking about how to deal with the relationship with the Ye family.
"Nephew, I know you're in a bad mood, but this has already happened. If you want Cheng Yun to pay with his life, we have nothing to say. In the future, our Ye and Zhou families will still be one family."
Shang Hongmian was startled: "Husband, what did you say?"
Ye Chengyun, who was kneeling there, also had a look of horror on his face: "Father, I don't want to die!"
