Flowers are expensive

Chapter 484 Dongguo Shunying
When mentioning his deceased son, Guan was a little emotional, and tears rolled down his face.She raised her hand and wiped it, and said, "Your grandfather has passed away peacefully. He was sick and weak since he was a child, and he is content enough to have children and grandchildren. Your grandma is reluctant to leave, and she has to guard his grave. A loving couple!"

"Grandma, can Fourth Uncle really help us? That Princess Qi seems to hate you a lot today. Do you have any grudge against her?"

"I broke her marriage, otherwise she wouldn't marry Prince Qi."

"Broken? What do you mean?"

"It's all old stuff, don't worry about it," Guan looked at Moxiang and said emotionally, "Moxiang, the Xie family is relying on you and Manxiang now. Your father and your second uncle can't be relied on, you three Uncle has never come back since he went to look for Jin Ling'er. Your Fourth Uncle Guan is still running away, and you don't know where he is. I feel ashamed of him when I think about it. So, before Man Xiang comes back, you have to Work hard and take good care of Xie's family, you know?"

Moxiang nodded and said, "Don't worry, Zuzu, my surname is always Xie. The Xie family's business is my business, and I will not ignore it." "Moxiang!" Guan held her hand Said, "Zuzu always thought that he could avoid everything by retiring, but once he stepped into the vortex of the torrent, no matter what he would get his shoes and socks dirty."

"Don't worry, Zuzu, fourth uncle will help us."

"I hope! You remember, in case something happens to me, you must find a way to get your Fourth Uncle Guan back. I owe him too much in this life!"

"Don't talk stupid things, there's nothing wrong with it, just wait for the fourth uncle to come back! I'll help you go back and rest!"

Guan Shi nodded, and went back to the room with Mo Xiang's support.After Mo Xiang left, she sat on the bed, silently staring at the candlestick.In the dead of night, before the lights in her room were blown out, a figure flashed to the window with a whoosh. She raised her head from her thoughts and said, "Come in!"

The door was gently pushed open, and a woman walked in slowly, with a soft voice in her throat, "Are you waiting for me?"

"I knew you would come."

"Since you know that I will come, you should know that you can't hide. You could spend your whole life in Zique Village, why do you want to show your face?" The person who came was the previous Princess Qi.

"The court is looking for me, don't you know?"

"Looking for you? Impossible?"

"My son has already died because of this incident. I don't want my descendants to be implicated again, so I brought them here. I plan to ask Zhao Yuanyin for help and ask him to hand me over to the court. In exchange, my descendants will be safe." "After finishing speaking, Guan sighed softly, "I knew that this day would always come after I came out more than 20 years ago."

"You mean, someone secretly reported what happened back then?"

"What happened back then, logically speaking, only eight people knew about it. Big brother Zhao and my husband had passed away long ago, and the two people who participated in this matter also passed away one after another. The remaining four people are you and me, and Prince Qi, And Zuo Tian."

"It's impossible for Dong Guo Tongbo and I to report on you. Could it be...impossible! What's the benefit of Zuo Tian reporting on you? He was also one of the participants in that incident."

"I don't want to worry about these anymore, I just want my children and grandchildren to be safe and sound."

"So you want to tell Yuan Yin about poisoning Chai Rong?"

"Yes, his mother was one of the participants. Shouldn't he know? Although I don't know why Concubine Shun died, I believe her conscience has been suffering. And that child, Is it ice? Although I don't know how Concubine Shun managed to hide the child's life from everyone, I think it must be difficult for the empress!"

Princess Qi smiled contemptuously and said: "That's right, Bingcan is that woman's child. In fact, I never knew that she had a child left behind. Dongguo Shunning kept it a secret until later when Bingcan and Yuanyin came back from Dali. , I just found out about this. Shun Ning has been raising his son as a servant in Dong Guo's house, no one thought of it, and no one noticed it."

"You really want to kill Bingcan, right? He is the son of the man you love, but unfortunately the biological mother is not you, but another woman."

"If it weren't for you, how could things have become like this?" Princess Qi stared at Guan Shi full of hatred and said, "I could have married him, but you were the one who told him that Dongguo Shunying was dead, so he would give up. I will go!"

"Why didn't you kill Bingcan? You should hate his father for reneging on the marriage."

"I also thought about killing him, because every time I see his face, I can think of Dongguo Shunying! But when I saw him again, he was no longer a weak person. You Yuanyin. But, let me tell you, I won't let you have a chance to tell him!"

"For that child, do you really have no guilt at all? If you hadn't secretly exchanged the antidote, his mother Dongguo Shunying would not have died, and you yourself would not have ended up being abandoned by your fiancé! What is this? ? A mistake will cause eternal hatred!"

"No!" Princess Qi stared and said, "I don't feel any guilt at all! Dongguo Shunying is just the daughter of the Dongguo family concubine, and she has been staying in the Dongguo mansion as a maid. I am equal and want to marry Zuo Xi together? She is too wishful thinking, no wonder I am cruel!"

Guan closed her eyes, shook her head helplessly and said, "You are really obsessed!"

Princess Qi snorted coldly and said: "Don't sigh for me, think about yourself first! I let you choose what to do. You came here just to save your descendants with death. Yuan Yin can help you." I can do it too. As long as you disappear from this world before tomorrow morning, I can promise you to keep your family safe."

"Can I believe it?" Guan opened her eyes and looked at Princess Qi and said, "Because I believed in you at the beginning, I thought you were as innocent as your face, who knew you would secretly replace Dongguo Shunying's antidote, Let her die in vain, just because you don't want her to marry the man you love! Can I still trust you, Yu Mingshu?"

"It's up to you if you don't believe me, you have no way out! Either kill yourself, or I will personally send you a ride, otherwise, everyone in this house will die tonight! Choose yourself!"

"I really didn't expect to meet you in Jingyou City," Guan said with a wry smile and shook his head, "It's a crime! However, some things won't all go as you wish!"

"What do you mean?"

At the same time as she asked this sentence, Princess Qi sensed that there was someone behind her, she immediately turned around vigilantly, her face instantly turned pale!There was a pair of leopard-like vicious eyes in the slanted door, it was ice residue!

I don't know when, Bingcan quietly followed behind her, and he heard the dialogue between the two of them clearly!She suddenly panicked, drew her sword out, turned around and directly stabbed Guan Shi, but it was too late!The ice hook drew a graceful silver arc in midair, and slid across the back of her hand like lightning!With a scream, she hastily withdrew her hand, and the long sword fell to the ground with a bang.

Guan took a long breath, frowned slightly and said: "It's not that I can't hide, it seems that no one can hide!"

Princess Qi covered the back of her bleeding hand, gave Bingcan a hard look, and then rushed out the door in embarrassment, disappearing without a trace.

Inside the house, only Guan and Bing were left.Guan thought that Bingcan would ask her something, but she didn't expect that Bingcan sat in front of her and kept silent, as if he was depositing and churning something.It wasn't until the sky turned pale that Bingcan asked: "Who is Dongguo Shunying?"

Guan's slightly tired eyes opened, glanced at Bingcan, and slowly said: "Your mother."

Bingcan's eyelids trembled, and the corner of his mouth was full of excitement and anger that could not be contained: "Is your surname Dong Guo?"

"Yes, she is the concubine of Dongguo Mansion in Lanzhou, that is to say, you and Prince You are cousins. Dongguo Shunying is the concubine sister of Concubine Shun."

"Heh!" There was an inexplicable smile on Bingcan's face, and he turned his head to look at the slightly white window, with resentment wandering in his heart.Who would have thought that Yuan Yin and himself are really connected by kinship and blood?No wonder when Concubine Shun passed away, she was so enjoined to treat Yuan Yin as her own younger brother. So...

"No one has told you, right? Even Concubine Shun can't bear to tell you, because she thinks that maybe if you don't tell you the cause and effect, your life will be happier."

Bingcan turned his head, looked at Guan Shi coldly and asked: "So what? Did you come here to tell Yuan Yin these things on purpose?"

"I just wanted to tell him about poisoning Chai Rong to death. As for your life experience, I didn't want to tell him at all."

"So can we say it now? My mother is a concubine from Dongguo Mansion, so what about my father? Could it be the Zuo Xi that Princess Qi mentioned?"

Mrs. Guan nodded and said: "Zuo Xi is Zuo Tian's younger brother. I haven't seen him since the day he regretted his marriage. Some people say that he has become a monk, and some people say that he is dead. In short, for more than 20 years, No audio."

"Why regret the marriage?"

"It's a long story. It started when we planned to poison Chai Rong. I came up with the idea at the beginning, because I created a new chronic poison that can make people die silently. I came up with a good-sounding idea." The name is Huimeng. Under the circumstances at that time, I proposed to Big Brother Zhao to give Chai Rong a ride with Huimeng, and no one would notice."

"What does this have to do with my mother?"

"Because she is a participant just like Concubine Shun. It is not an easy task to poison Chai Rong to cover people's eyes and ears. Your grandfather, the head of the Dongguo family at that time proposed to send his daughter to serve in the palace, so he took the opportunity to help me come down." Poison. Concubine Shun was originally sent, but she was only 13 years old at the time, with a weak nature and an embarrassing task. So, your grandfather only thought of your mother, a concubine who worked as a maid in the Dongguo family."

"Did my mother agree so easily?"

"No," Guan shook her head and said, "Of course I didn't agree easily. At that time, your grandfather knew that she and Zuo Xi had a good relationship, so he made an agreement with the Zuo family. If the poisoning was successful, she and Yu Mingshu would marry together. In the Zuo family, Yu Mingshu is the main wife, and she is the concubine. Yu Mingshu and Zuo Xi are both descended from the old famous families in the capital, and they had a marriage contract long ago."

"And then? My mother died? Why did she die?"

"Every dish and medicinal soup presented to Chai Rong will be tasted by someone first. This person is your mother. This is also the biggest purpose of sending your mother to serve in the palace."

Bingcan punched the table with his fist, and said with fiery eyes, "You guys are so despicable! Not only Chai Rong will be poisoned, but even my mother will be poisoned. Are you planning to exchange one life for another?"

"There is an antidote, my child!" Guan said with a tone of remorse, "It's just that I believed in the wrong person. Yu Mingshu was so cute back then, and no one would have thought that she would secretly change my antidote." When your mother got poisoned, it would be too late for me to treat her! I didn’t expect her to be such a person, I really didn’t expect that, so before she married your father Zuo Xi, I told your father about your mother’s death , Only then did I regret the marriage later."

Bingcan clenched his fists tightly and asked: "Is it Princess Qi? Is it that despicable woman who secretly changed the antidote? You are not making an excuse to get rid of your crime, are you?"

"I just want to poison Chai Rong and help Brother Zhao take over the world. Why should I poison your mother? Besides, the Dongguo family is very willing to marry the Zuo family and let your mother marry into the Zuo family. The alliance is stronger, and that's what we all want to see! I'm not kidding you, boy, I've done a lot of bad things in my life, but I'll admit it if I did. I've always hated your mother's death Huai, this is probably also an unforgettable scar for Concubine Shun."

"Concubine Shun?" Bing Can murmured three words, and suddenly something came to mind, "A doctor said that her condition before death was very similar to that of Chai Rong, could it be that she also died from your poison? "
