Chapter 134 You Are Dead!
Xie Mao turned back and looked at Mr. Xie.
He sneered and said to Mrs Xie, "My good sister, do you know that your man wants to kill me?"
Xie's face turned pale, her heart was in a panic, and she was almost unable to support her body.
Holding the door frame, she said with a sad face, "Brother, there must be some misunderstanding here. Master won't be so cruel."
"Haha, misunderstanding..."
Xie Mao raised his head and laughed, he was laughing at Xie, but also at himself.
"My good sister, what kind of ecstasy soup have you been poured into by Gu Zhili. I was almost killed by him, and you still spoke for him and said something misunderstood. Sister, sister, I'm sorry for how I have treated you for so many years. You. Is that how you repay me?"
Xie Shi looked like she was about to cry.
She looked at Master Gu eagerly, and called out weakly, "Master?"
Master Gu snorted coldly and questioned Mr. Xie with a stern face, "What are you doing here? You have nothing to do here, you go back."
Mrs Xie shook her head, "The concubine will not go back. Master, eldest brother, although I don't know what happened between the two of you. But our two families are relatives, so we should support each other and help each other. If there is anything, we can't sit down. talk?"
Xie Mao chuckled, "I would like to have a good talk with Master Gu, but it's a pity they don't give face."
Master Gu sneered, "This official has already said that, Xie Mao, you are to blame for what you are today. When you calculated this official, you should have thought of today."
Xie Mao gritted his teeth, "Gu Zhili, don't forget, if I hadn't helped you, you would still be eating sand in the northwest.
Marquis Pingnan is your uncle, but has he helped you over the years?
You always wanted to go back to Beijing, how did he reply to you? Let you not worry, experience a few more years in the local area.
This experience is more than ten years away from Beijing. Are you willing? Gu Zhili, you have to remember that it is all thanks to me that you can have today. I helped you. Don't be ungrateful. "
"I thank you!" Master Gu chuckled, "You think I don't want your help? Do you think I don't know what you're up to? Xie Mao, don't take everyone for a fool.
From the very beginning, you had bad intentions, and you dared to provoke the relationship between this official and the Hou Mansion, you are courting death. "
"Ha ha,
I am indeed looking for death. You Gu Zhili are so capable, you can't wait to kill me now. Unfortunately, you can't get it right. "
Xie Mao's eyes flashed a dangerous light, he was like a poisonous snake, staring at Master Gu.
He's very patient, he'll wait for an opportunity to hit the ground running.
However, Master Gu was not threatened by him, "I have already said that you can use whatever means you have. This time, let's have a good fight to see who can have the last laugh."
Xie Mao laughed and pointed to Master Gu's face, "Gu Zhili, you are dead."
"Big brother!"
Xie Shi was terrified.
Xie Mao looked at Xie's family coldly, then crossed Xie's family and looked at Gu Jiu who was standing at the door.
I don't know when, Gu Jiu had already arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and I don't know how much he saw.
Xie Mao sneered, "My good sister, don't come to persuade me. If you have the heart, persuade Lord Gu. If he is inhumane first, don't care about my injustice."
Xie threw up and grabbed Xie Mao's sleeve, "Brother, the Gu Xie family are relatives, so why make such a fuss."
Xie Mao was unmoved.
Master Gu was very annoyed, "Miss Xie, let him go. You are a woman, what are you doing in the officialdom?"
Xie Mao looked at Xie Shi with a half-smile, and then glanced at Gu Jiu who was still standing at the door.
He said to Mrs Xie, "Sister, have you heard? Master Gu dislikes you for being meddlesome, so don't worry about it."
Xie Shi burst into tears, "Master, there is a conflict between you and eldest brother, can't you just talk about it?"
Master Gu said with a stern face, "Xie Shi, don't you listen to my words? Come, take your wife down."
"I do not go!"
Xie Shi waved his arms, "Master, brother, can you shake hands and make peace in my face?"
Xie Mao shook his head, "My good sister, you don't have that much face."
Xie's body shook and almost fell to the ground.
Her face was as pale as snow, and she looked like she might fall down at any time.
Chun He supported her, almost scared.
She whispered to Mrs Xie, "Madam, let's go back. The master is angry."
woohoo...
The angry Master Gu was so terrifying, just one look made Chun He tremble and tremble.
Xie ignored Chunhe.
She looked at Master Gu, "Master, my concubine promised you that I will draw a clear line with the Xie family from now on. Only this time, can you give me a face? You and eldest brother shake hands and make peace."
Xie Mao stood aside, watching the joke.
Master Gu frowned, obviously dissatisfied.
He has been restraining his anger and scolded his servants in a low voice, "What are you still doing, quickly help your wife down."
"I do not go!"
Xie was fearless, she just wanted to stand here. She couldn't helplessly watch the master and the eldest brother quarrel, and even cause death.
Gu Jiu walked into the courtyard gate and walked towards Mr. Xie.
"Madam, you are tired and your health is important. Why don't you go back to the wing and rest first."
"Second girl, why are you here?" Xie shi glared at Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu looked worried, stepped forward, and took the initiative to hold Xie's wrist.
Xie's "um" sounded, and his feet were unstable.
Gu Jiu quickly supported her and said to Chun He and the others, "Come with me and help my wife to the wing."
Xie shi covered her forehead with one hand, why did she feel so dizzy and her mind was not sober.
She was supported by the maids and came to the wing for placement.
She felt that Gu Jiu had been holding her wrist and did not let go.
"It's okay, ma'am." Chun He was very worried.
Gu Jiu said: "Madam is just tired, it doesn't matter. Sister Chunhe, go and pour some hot water over. Did your wife not eat much at noon? You can ask someone to go to the kitchen to get something to eat by the way. In this situation, madam, you can't hungry."
Chun He was surprised, "How could the second girl know that the wife didn't eat much at noon?"
Gu Jiu smiled softly and said, "Because I have also had this situation before. If I don't eat a meal, I will feel dizzy and tired, and my feet will be floating."
Chun He suddenly realized, "So that's the case. Many thanks to the second girl for clarifying the confusion."
"Should be."
Gu Jiu finally let go of Xie's wrist and told Chunhe to take good care of Xie's. Then she went outside and stood by the window to watch the situation outside.
Xie Mao sneered, "Gu Zhili, do you want to kill even my sister? For so many years, she has given birth to children for you, without credit or hard work. You must have a little conscience."
Master Gu said with a stern face: "Xie's marriage to the Gu family is the Gu family. You don't have to worry about her life and death. If you have this idle heart, you should think about how to survive."
"Haha, thank you brother-in-law Gu for your concern. Don't worry, my life is very tough. You want to kill me and dream!"
After finishing speaking, Xie Mao flung his sleeves and left, full of anger.
Master Gu is also full of anger.
His face was gloomy and dripping with water.
The servants bowed their heads in unison, not daring to meet the eyes of Lord Gu, it was really scary.
It is rare to see Master Gu get so angry.
Master Gu walked into the wing with a cold face.
Gu Jiu stepped forward and saluted, "Daughter greets father."
Master Gu let out a "um" from his nose, and then asked, "Why did you come here?"
Gu Jiu said calmly, "My daughter is worried about her father and is not at ease, so I came here to have a look."
Master Gu's mood instantly improved, but he still had a stern face, "What's not to worry about. Xie Mao can still eat me."
"Of course Mr. Xie has no ability to eat his father, but he has the ability to disgust his father."
Master Gu's expression changed.
Gu Jiu was right, Xie Mao was not very good at other things, and the ability of disgusting people was definitely first-class.
Master Gu took a deep breath, "How is your wife?"
"My wife is just too tired, and her emotions can't be relieved, so she's sick."
Master Gu frowned.
Gu Jiu reminded softly, "My wife has been worrying a lot about the marriage of the third sister. It's like this for everyone. After a while, your body can't take it anymore."
"You are right."
Master Gu entered the house to visit Mrs. Xie.
Xie Shi was groggy, and his mind was not very clear.
Master Gu took a few glances, told the maids to take good care of Mrs Xie, and then came out.
He called Gu Jiu, "Follow my father."
Gu Jiu hurriedly followed behind Master Gu and came to the study in the outer courtyard.
Gu Yu, Gu Quan, and Master Ma are all here.
The three of them were obviously stunned when they saw Gu Jiu.
I don't understand why Master Gu called Gu Jiu.
The study is a place for discussions, where can the girl's house come in casually.
Gu Jiu's expression was calm, his eyes were firm and confident, and he would not be timid at all because of other people's eyes.
Master Gu had a cold face, "Let's talk about it, what does Xie Mao mean when he slammed the door with great fanfare? What is his intention?"
The housekeeper Gu Quan said cautiously: "Isn't Mr. Xie for intercession and demonstration?"
Master Gu sneered, "Xie Mao is white, and he can get into today's status, but he is not an idiot. He came to the door, and the official guessed that he must have a deep meaning."
Gu Yu thought about it and said, "Could it be that Donggong put pressure on him, and he jumped off the wall in a hurry."
Master Ma stroked his beard, "There is a possibility. But it is more likely that Xie Mao is ready to take action against the master.
This case involves the corruption of officials in the East Palace, and even His Royal Highness cannot stay out of it. His Royal Highness is gentle and not aggressive.
But the gang of officials in the East Palace belonged to dogs, and usually they would catch someone and bite them when they had nothing to do.
Now that the adults have investigated the case and found the head of the East Palace, those officials of the East Palace will definitely not be able to sit still, and they will definitely jump up and fight back.
Xie Mao is just a pawn, making such a scene, just to test the attitude of adults. "
Master Gu nodded secretly, Master Ma's analysis made sense.
He was thinking about this, when Master Ma asked Gu Jiu, "Second girl, what do you think about today's events?"
Master Gu's attention was drawn to the past. It's good to hear Xiaojiu's opinion first.
Gu Jiufu was blessed and thought about it before saying, "I don't know the content of the case. I only make a simple analysis based on what I saw. If there is something wrong, I will ask my father, Master Ma, and Gu Yu. Fourth brother, please forgive me, butler."
"It's okay, you can say whatever you want. Say whatever comes to your mind." Master Gu encouraged Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu nodded, and then said, "From what I saw today, I feel like Mr. Xie is putting on a show."
"Why the show?"
"Showing is acting." Gu Jiu explained.
Master Ma pondered the new vocabulary for a while, then nodded again and again, "Zuoxiu, this statement is new. Second lady, please continue."
Gu Jiu continued: "Master Xie played this scene, my daughter thinks that it is neither for her father nor for her wife, but for others.
The daughter dared to guess that this scene of Lord Xie is very likely to be played to His Royal Highness, the Queen, or even to other officials of the Eastern Palace. "
Master Ma said: "Second girl's point of view is interesting."
Master Gu asked, "Why did Xie Mao act in this scene? What's the purpose?"
Gu Jiu frowned and thought deeply, she knew this was an opportunity, and she couldn't let the opportunity slip away.
How can I have something to say, how can I share my father's worries, and let my father pay attention to his opinion?
Gu Jiu directly put himself into Xie Mao's position, and immediately said: "My daughter thinks that Lord Xie is seeking greater interests.
In this case, the daughter does not know how much Mr. Xie was implicated, but judging from his appearance, he should have the confidence to retreat.
The reason why he called at the door was to let his father and everyone misunderstand that he was at the end of the road, and to let everyone relax their vigilance against him.
Once everyone relaxes their vigilance, I think that thanks to Sir Xie's ability, I will definitely fight back with all my strength and seek more benefits from it.
If the daughter guesses correctly, the East Palace will soon introduce a ghost. And Master Xie can take this opportunity to go a step further. "
Gu Jiu's voice fell, and the small study was so silent that everyone could hear everyone's breathing.
Everyone was silent and did not respond.
Gu Jiu frowned, is there something wrong with her analysis?
Without first-hand information and without grasping the details of the case, it is indeed difficult to make an accurate analysis.
Her analysis just now was all based on Xie Mao's character.
Gu Jiu had never dealt with Xie Mao, but from Xie Mao's past actions, Gu Jiu analyzed that this person likes to take risks, and his sword is slanted. Acting quite recklessly, not abiding by the rules and regulations.
If you analyze Xie Mao from a conventional point of view, it must be full of mistakes.
However, looking at everyone's reactions, her analysis this time doesn't seem to be right.
Master Gu and the other three exchanged glances.
Master Ma wiped the sweat from his forehead and finally broke the silence in the study.
"Second girl, I am far inferior."
Gu Jiu was stunned for a while, and then immediately reacted, "Master Ma is wrong, I'm just saying it temporarily, it can't be true."
Master Gu waved his hand, "Xiao Jiu's analysis is very reasonable. We underestimated Xie Mao."
Master Ma nodded again and again, "Master Xie's move today, as the second girl has analyzed, is most likely just acting. I was still wondering, how could Master Xie suddenly lose his temper when he has been in the officialdom for so many years. People came to the door. Don't talk about encountering this kind of thing, I haven't even heard of it before. Master Xie is also a pioneer."
Master Gu snorted coldly, and was extremely contemptuous of Xie Mao, "Xie Mao, you will do anything to achieve your goals. If you do this kind of thing to someone else, you will definitely not be able to do it. If you change it to him, there is nothing he dares to do."
Gu Yu asked: "Master Xie wants to get out, what should we do next?"
Master Gu said sharply: "If he wants to get out, this official will take a layer of skin off him. He wants others to be a scapegoat, hehe, this official will let him draw water in a bamboo basket."
Gu Jiu couldn't help but reminded, "Father, you have to be careful of Xie Mao. He is a typical villain who will do anything to achieve his goals. Next, he will definitely take measures to fight back, and his daughter is worried that his father will be implicated. After all, the Queen Mother still alive."
Master Ma nodded again and again, "Second Miss reminded you right, my lord, you have to be careful next. If Donggong wants to pull the lord off his horse, and with the help of the empress, the lord is afraid that it will be in danger."
Master Gu gritted his teeth, "How could this officer be afraid of him Xie Mao. He Xie Mao has the means, is there no way for this officer?"
Gu Jiu opened his mouth, wanting to say that compared with Xie Mao, Master Gu is still too polite, not as unscrupulous as Xie Mao.
It's really hard to tell who wins and who loses this time against Xie Mao.
Maybe it's both losers, maybe it's one death and one injury, maybe it's thunder and rain, no one can do anything to the other.
In the end, Gu Jiu didn't say these words.
Official affairs must be resolved by official means.
In this regard, Master Ma and the others are experienced and can definitely come up with a solution.
