Chapter 236: Die with Eyes Wide Open
Gu Huaizhi unexpectedly raised his eyebrows. He heard about Qi Min's situation and had not yet recovered his memory. He originally thought that Su Wan would stay in Da Zhou for a while longer, but he did not expect that she could return to Da Zhou immediately.
But thinking of the rumors he heard along the way, the Empress Dowager seemed to like Su Wan very much and wanted to enthrone her as the Empress.
Su Wan was determined not to give in, so the Empress Dowager gave in and let Su Wan enter the Wei family's jade book.
It might be a delaying tactic.
"The Xiliang Temple was blown up, Qu Yuanxiao was executed on the spot, Jiuyu and Jiuge are the descendants of Wei Xinglu and Qu Jiuxiao, and they were saved by Wanwan. How do they plan to deal with them?" Gu Huaizhi had no feelings for Jiuyu and Jiuge. He was afraid that Qu Yuanxiao would die in his hands, and Jiuyu would harbor hatred and hurt Su Wan.
Ji Xuan understood what Gu Huaizhi meant. If Jiuyu wanted to avenge his father, he must cut the grass and root it out.
There is no right or wrong, black and white.
It's just for each of them to survive.
"Minmin took over the matter on behalf of Wei Yang." Ji Xuan pressed his temples, feeling that this matter was difficult to handle. People's hearts were hidden, and who could tell what others were thinking. If it were in the past, Ji Xuan would have eliminated all future troubles, but Jiuyu was a little different, so he showed mercy: "You go and have a look."
Gu Huaizhi lowered his eyes: "Okay."
He stood up, bowed, and left.
Luo Cheng was waiting at the door, obviously waiting for Gu Huaizhi, "Young Master, Mo Yuan and Mo Chen are with Madam Qi, I will take you there."
"Thank you." Gu Huaizhi asked him to lead the way.
He would not interfere in the affairs of Xiliang, but just deal with Jiuyu and Jiuge.
The identities of Jiuyu and Jiuge...
Gu Huaizhi frowned and arrived at Mingxin Hall.
Most of the civil and military officials dispersed, and only a few important ministers were discussing the matter of Qu Yuanxiao. Everyone was divided into two factions. One faction wanted to execute Jiuyu on the spot, and the other faction considered that Jiuyu was of royal blood, so it was better to confine him.
Jiuyu knelt in the center of the hall, with blood on his face and body, adding a bit of gloom, and his eyes were silent, as if the people around him were discussing other people.
Qi Min was headached by the noise. When she saw Gu Huaizhi, she didn't recognize a new face. Seeing Luo Cheng beside him, she guessed who he was.
Su Wan's husband.
Her son-in-law.
The people who were arguing with red ears also found Gu Huaizhi, and almost recognized him at a glance. He was the one who led people to encircle Qu Yuanxiao. They saw this man carrying Su Wan away with their own eyes, and guessed his identity, and all stopped arguing.
Gu Huaizhi bowed and said in a gentle voice: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask Jiuyu, I wonder if you can make it convenient."
If it was someone else, it would be inconvenient and not in accordance with the rules.
The identity of the person in front of him was different. It was very likely that Ji Xuan instructed him, or Su Wan instructed him to come.
Qi Min waved her hand and made it convenient for him.
Seeing this, the ministers wanted to say that it was against the rules, but they endured it after being given a look by their colleagues.
Gu Huaizhi stood in front of Jiuyu, "Can you get up?"
Jiuyu's eyes moved, and he saw the person in front of him clearly. He was silent for a long time, then slowly stood up and followed Gu Huaizhi to the outside of the hall.
"Qu Yuanxiao is dead." Gu Huaizhi said.
Jiuyu's face was pale, and his hands hanging by his side were clenched tightly, without saying a word.
"Do you want to avenge him?" Gu Huaizhi asked again.
Jiuyu closed his eyes, as if he could feel the moment when the hot blood rushed to his face, and Qu Yuanxiao fell to the ground with his eyes open.
