Provoking the Violent Snake King by Mistake

Chapter 38

No, she is Gu Man, she will never give up like this!
Her own daughter hasn't cultivated Yuanshen for hundreds of years. She doesn't believe that Gu Chengfeng doesn't know the reason for this. Thinking of this, Gu Man simply got up and went to him to find out!
"Dad! Dad, are you there?"

I searched around Gu Chengfeng's other courtyard and saw no one, so Gu Man simply went to his study, regardless of whether she would disturb the people inside, and knocked on the door with her hand.

The passing maids stopped to watch, but there was no reply from inside, so...

Looking around as if no one would notice, Gu Man simply and quickly opened the door and stepped in.

Although the study is not big, but the layout is very delicate, there is a very conspicuous picture of a beauty hanging on the wall next to the desk, the background is Ludao where she lives now, and a woman in white brocade stands gracefully in it.

Under the slender willow eyebrows are clear black eyes, like a pool of autumn water, deep and charming. The small nose and slightly pursed lips form a beautiful and delicate face. Only then did I realize that this beauty is somewhat similar to myself... …

Presumably this is the mother of Gu Man in this body, and there is no extra time to remember, so Gu Man simply took off the portrait and looked at it carefully.

She hoped to find some hidden secrets in this painting like a TV series. She paid close attention to every detail and studied almost every particle with her eyes closed.

Except for an unremarkable red rope tied around her snow-white neck, and a seemingly ordinary round jade pendant hanging below it, which is incompatible with this painting, there is nothing special about it.

"It seems to be superfluous."

Maybe it's just a portrait, she has to find other clues quickly!

After hanging up the portrait, Gu Man began to search for Gu Chengfeng's secrets. According to what Lan Er said before she died, she accidentally discovered some kind of secret agreement between Ning Qiuhe and Gu Chengfeng. Something, so she was allowed to do whatever she wanted in the mansion, even watching her mother being killed by her, she didn't dare to do anything.

Originally thought that Ning Qiuhe relied on Concubine Ning's protection to monopolize the power in the family, but she didn't expect that there was a deeper reason behind it.

While rummaging through boxes and cabinets, Gu Man didn't know which mechanism she came across. The bookshelf full of books suddenly opened a door. After entering, the inside was divided into two roads, each of which was winding and deep with no end in sight.

Close your eyes, choose one at random and walk forward with your head covered...

It seems that I was really too simple before, how can there be no secrets in such a huge Xiangfu, and how many of them involve her?
After receiving too many messages at once, Gu Man's mind was a little confused, and she didn't know how to choose the exit in the secret passage, and her intuition was basically the wrong spokesperson...

"The old slave will take his leave now..."

"Eunuch Jin, go slowly!"

Gu Chengfeng sent the golden long fan to the door of the hall, frowned, turned around and walked towards the inner room, and when he came out, there was already an extra person in his hand.

"Father!! Let me go!!" It was so unlucky that even a gopher could be caught.

As if feeling the scorching gaze from all directions, Gu Man raised her head, only then did she realize that she had arrived at the main hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion from the Dongyuan just now, and almost all the key figures of the Prime Minister's Mansion were here, even Yu Wentuo sitting on the guest chair.

"Just now I sent people to search for it for a long time but couldn't find it. It turns out that some people like to hide in the house and listen to the corner." Ning Qiuhe smiled half-smile, as expected, trash can't be put on the table.

"Father, look at how she has the demeanor of everyone's daughter. It's no wonder that she won't embarrass us if she enters the palace like this!"

Gu Wanrou really hated this trash to death. Just now, Eunuch Jin actually asked to let this trash into the palace by name. Does this mean that the emperor has some special feelings for her?

It seems that this action really angered Gu Chengfeng. Gu Man spent a lot of effort cooking to break his hand away. The more he did this, the more Gu Man felt that there was something wrong with Gu Chengfeng!

"What is the palace or not? Don't worry, my sister is not interested in the palace!" Hurry up and leave, so that she can enter the secret passage again.

"As a young lady of Xiangfu, how can you be fooled at this time!"

"Sister, you injured General Nie and caused his father to target him everywhere in the court. This time, my mother managed to get Concubine Ning to hold a dinner party. This time the two families will settle down. The whole thing started because of you. How could you Reason for not going?"

Gu Yifang was full of benevolence, Gu Man snorted disdainfully, it is really a waste of talent for this woman not to become an actress.

"There's no need to go through so much trouble. My sister, I will come to the door in person to plead guilty to General Nie someday!"

Let her bow her head to the evil forces?Don't think about it!
"You stop for me!"

Just as Gu Man was about to leave, Gu Chengfeng's warm and angry voice sounded behind him, "The emperor has issued a decree, you have to go even if you don't want to go!"

"The emperor wants to die, and the minister has to die. Unfortunately, I am not the emperor's minister. His imperial decree is for you. Why don't you go?"

"presumptuous!!"

Gu Chengfeng has never been so angry. Ever since he was a child, Gu Man has never spoken to him in such a tone no matter how arrogant and domineering he is. Seeing that she was about to step out of the room, Gu Chengfeng stretched out his hand and swiped at the door, and instantly condensed The barrier, the huge force bounced Gu Man back.

Bullying her can't spell, right?Did they think she was still the old Gu Man?
She raised her hands up, clasped her palms together suddenly, and made a forward chopping motion. Suddenly, a white light burst out from her palm, with electric flashes visible to the naked eye, and with a hiss, Gu Chengfeng's condensed barrier was split apart. up.

The powerful aura brought by the aftermath made her hair dance wildly. She turned her head and narrowed her peach blossom eyes for a moment, a flash of hostility flashed by, she looked at Gu Chengfeng with a cold expression on her face, "Do you think I'm still that trash?"

Sure enough, father is also unreliable. He can protect her if he commits a crime at home, but if someone comes to him if he commits a crime outside, he has no choice but to hand her over?
As if she had figured something out, Gu Man suddenly stepped out laughing, and the laughter that remained in the main hall spread to everyone's ears, forming an irony.

It's not difficult for anyone with a discerning eye to see the blow just now, at least at the late stage of refining gods. When did she actually have spells?

When everyone was worried about Gu Man, only one person smiled, and that was Ning Qiuhe. Her smile was so meaningful that people couldn't see clearly what was in her heart.

……

In the evening, when Gu Chengfeng went to Ludao twice, he was rejected by Gu Man. Could it be that his daughter has grown up?

Such a daughter is so strange, if this is the price of growing up, then he would rather that Xiao Man would always be that silly child who knows how to eat, drink and play all day long...

"Mei Niang, you think so too, right?"

Looking back from the portrait, Gu Chengfeng felt a chaotic atmosphere approaching, and quickly turned off the lights in the study.

The sound of Xixi Suo Suo approached, and after a few seconds, a smaller figure came in, and Gu Chengfeng recognized that person immediately...

I thought I sneaked in without anyone noticing, but I didn't know that the light in the room turned on as soon as I entered, I saw Gu Chengfeng sitting on the chair in the study, his slightly old face was full of exhaustion.

Presumably Nie Xie's recent actions really made him very tired to deal with.

Now that she was discovered, she just walked in openly, and spoke before Gu Chengfeng could speak.

"Do you think she will forgive you if you sit in front of your mother all night and repent?"

Hearing this, Gu Chengfeng was shocked, what did she know?
Seeing Gu Chengfeng's reaction, Gu Man chased after the victory, "A man who would sacrifice his beloved daughter for the sake of profit, now has to sacrifice his daughter for the sake of power, heh, anyway, you have three daughters, one is missing and you have two..." .”

Gu Man's words pierced Gu Chengfeng's heart like the tip of a needle, but she seemed to be right. No matter what the reason was, as a man, he couldn't even protect his beloved woman and daughter.

"Why don't you talk?" Could it be that you are planning to use force to solve the problem?

Subconsciously, Gu Man's dantian is lucky.

Unexpectedly, Gu Chengfeng, with all his power in power, made such a failure in dealing with his own feelings, that's all, that's all.

"If you don't want to go, then don't go." If the emperor blames him, let him take care of everything.

Gu Man, who was originally angry like a hedgehog, actually felt a little uneasy because of Gu Chengfeng's submissiveness. Isn't this the result she wanted to see?
The quiet breath seemed to be frozen, the man sitting alone on the chair was so embarrassed at the moment, those vicious words could no longer be uttered, Gu Man turned around and slammed the door and ran out.

Darkness invaded, and Gu Chengfeng sat alone in the study for an unknown how long.

It is said that a man does not shed tears lightly, and no one knows how many times he shed tears sitting alone in front of this portrait.

After Gu Man ran out, she flew up to the roof with the wind. Sitting on the roof, her gaze stayed on the slightly opened door of the study. The light inside went out suddenly, but Gu Chengfeng did not come out from inside.

The moonlight was bright and clear, but her heart became more and more restless.

"Is it because of pregnancy? Why have you become so irritable recently?" Yu Wentuo stepped on the tiles, walked to Gu Man and sat down.

"Don't you know that it is immoral to disturb people's peace?"

"Is it quiet here? Why did I see someone going crazy."

I was still sharp in my words just now, but now I lost the battle with Yu Wentuo, sighed, and said melancholy: "You won't understand."

"Everyone has their own difficulties, you have them, and Mr. Xiangguo has them too. We don't understand other people's difficulties, so we always accidentally hurt some people invisibly."

"What exactly do you want to say?" Gu Man turned her head to the side, squinting at Yu Wentuo's deep eyes, which were filled with mist in an instant.

"As smart as you, why don't you understand?"

Yu Wentuo stood up, and landed firmly on the ground as soon as he spun, looked back at Gu Man and shook his head. Originally, he just went to Tianyao Dynasty to meet an old friend, but unexpectedly met this troublesome woman, and she took care of a lot of things by the way. troublesome things.

The phrase "awakening the dreamer" probably describes this moment. Gu Man stood up and let the breeze caress her face.

All the malice is because she cares too much, and some things need to be felt with her heart, but she will not give up investigating all of this, and feels that all of this must be related to her missing a soul.

Early the next morning, Gu Man was woken up by the noise in the Prime Minister's Mansion. On Ludao Island, she could vaguely see the maids taking out delicate headgear from the storeroom and sending them to Gu Yifang's room one after another.
