At the beginning of March, Gu Ningxi had a rough and tiring life these past few days.

On the first day of the new year, the servant asked the doctor to give him acupuncture and moxibustion. When he woke up, after listening to the report clearly, Gu Ningxi went to the old Gu's mansion to visit his grandmother.

Although the old man had been at odds with his mother all his life, he was considered a kind elder to Gu Ningxi, as for favoring Gu Ningran, Gu Ningxi didn't care at all, but the biggest heartache of being expelled was that his grandmother gave up on him.

Unexpectedly, the grandmother was murdered, sick and bedridden. Gu Ningxi didn't care about anything for a moment, she just wanted to see what the old man had become.

Seeing the withered and thin white-haired old woman on the bed, Gu Ningxi felt her heart burning, how can she be so unfilial to her descendants? Ashamed, he gritted his teeth.

As the grandson of the eldest family, she indulged in small personal matters and neglected her elders until now. Gu Ningxi felt ashamed, her voice was choked and hoarse, and she kowtowed with all her strength, her forehead was red and swollen.

Mrs. Gu knew that Gu Ningxi had been expelled from the family, and felt that she was useless as his elder, but the shame in her eyes did not reach Gu Ningxi's mind. She couldn't understand her words, her expression couldn't be discerned, she aroused some strength for a while, and even wrote.

Gu Ningxi was stung by the words "Take me away", she really took her grandmother away impulsively, and only when she returned to Xin Gu's mansion did she realize that she was full of clues.

The officials are busy arranging the furniture of the residence, the servants of the new Gu mansion are cleaning the layout, waiting for the doctor to cook the medicine, and the servants of the old Gu mansion are surrendering and kowtowing, explaining the daily objects needed by the old lady. For a while, the new Gu mansion People coming and going, things moving, almost chaotic.

Gu Ningxi could only endure the whirling caused by fever and exhaustion, gulped down two cups of Kuding tea and a bowl of refreshing medicine soup, listening to the report and making decisions one by one, like a spinning top that was about to die. He fell to the ground and had to reluctantly rely on a sharp point to support him.

In the end, his originally radiant and melodious voice had to be heard very closely by servants regardless of propriety, in order to hear it clearly.

He felt that his chest was bleeding again, and it was sticky and wet, as if his limbs were stuck, and it was difficult to lift his hands and feet. The end of his nose was covered with the smell of blood and sweat from his body, and he really didn't have the strength to deal with Gu Sanshu and Gu Ningran who came to provoke him.

Closing the door and not accepting it is the worst policy, Gu Ningxi has no other choice, but luckily the neighbors are watching the excitement and being enthusiastic, so they drove away the outsiders. He stayed close to the footsteps in front of his grandmother's bed, and was unable to move even when the old man grabbed his sleeves.

After finally waiting for her grandmother to fall asleep, she relaxed her wrist. Gu Ningxi staggered to her feet, making up her mind to sue Gu Ningran and bring her grandmother to her side to take care of her.

He knew that Sanfang murdered his grandmother, and he had no ironclad evidence at hand. There were many such secrets in high-ranking households.

As for being stabbed by Gu Ningxi, he had to consider not mentioning why the two of them went to the suburbs of Beijing together, because they didn't want to involve He Niang.

Everyone knows that the words of those who exterminate the clan are automatically discounted by three points. In this regard, if Gu Ningran chews and entangles brothers into a fight, and then one misses the knife, and the other loses his mind and throws himself into the water, it is uncertain whether the Yamen will get along with it.

One more thing is Gu Ningran's violation of Mo Qiqi. If the three crimes are superimposed on each other, the effect may be better. However, Mo Qiqi didn't want to report to the officials, as he felt ashamed.

Thinking about all these things, Gu Ningxi picked up a pen to write the petition, but couldn't finish a single word for a long time.

Until nightfall, Second Aunt Gu quietly brought Mo Qiqi over to visit Mrs. Gu.

Mo Qiqi took a closer look, and compared with the old Mrs. Gu who was aloof in her previous life and regarded her as a concubine like an ant in her memory, the one lying on the bed now is just a poor old lady.

However, the symptoms of the old man are very similar to those of Mrs. Gu who suffered a stroke at the end of the third year of Yongsheng in her previous life.

Mo Qiqi heard Brother Xi's hoarse voice explain to Second Aunt Gu that the doctor saw her, and her grandmother was probably poisoned. She knew that it must have been the mistress Cao's attack in her previous life, but in this life she changed her target.

Second Aunt Gu asked Gu Ningxi about her plans for the future, and when she heard that he was going to confront her cousin's cousin in court, she was very sad, and she kept her words of dissuasion rolling in her stomach, but she still didn't say anything.

In Mo Qiqi's mind, various clips about Gu Ningran in the past and present life flashed one after another. Brother Xi's frank words about how he dared not expect extravagant lawsuits came into his heart, and he felt very depressed and uncomfortable. Brother Xi dispels his hatred.

A few days ago Tao Xinhe persuaded her to stand up by herself, Mo Qiqi kept thinking about it. At this moment, he was suddenly blessed, and asked hesitantly: "Brother Xi, Gu Ningran bullied me. If I sue him with you, will it increase my chances of winning? Can he go to jail? I also want to contribute, I can help , I can stand up."

Second Aunt Gu persuaded her for a long time, but it was nothing more than what Mo Qiqi was worried about before, such as hurting her reputation, affecting her marriage, and so on. However, Gu Ningxi raised her eyebrows and took a deep look at her at first, but said nothing, and Mo Qiqi understood the meaning.

"I want to sue him too! He also had dirty thoughts about Mrs. Xi, but luckily Brother Xi stopped him. Before... other times, I don't know if other girls were victimized. I am willing to come forward. Brother Xi, you teach me, What to do, how to sue?"

Mo Qiqi didn't say that in her previous life, Gu Ningran talked about Tao Xinhe in private in front of her wives and concubines in an annoyed and frivolous tone.

Gu Ningxi gave her a big salute and thanked her solemnly. When Mo Qiqi saw this, tears rolled down her eyes no longer able to contain it. It turned out that it was such a warm and comfortable feeling to be respected by Brother Xi.

On the second day of junior high school, Gu Ningxi first went to her grandmother's room to say hello, and reported that she was going to sue the official Gu Ningran. The grandmother tremblingly wrote the word "good", and the tears in the corners of her eyes had not dried for a long time.

Gu Ningxi had a splitting headache, so she insisted on washing her face with cold water for a while to clear her mind. The servants were always worried that he would catch cold and his fever would worsen, but who could stop him? Unless the former Tao Xinhe.

Gu Ningxi didn't wear the scarlet official uniform, but changed into a loose soap-colored robe to go out, and the bandages on her upper body were not so obvious.

The yamen sued the officials, and it was indeed not going well.

Gu Ningxi has the patience to wear it down slowly. He drank the decoction to suppress the pain in advance. After that, the attack should be late at night. As long as the deacon officials receive the pleadings, the matter will be half done. At that time, he will pass out for a day or two, and his grandmother entrusts him to Aunt Gu. When Gu Ningran was investigated, she had nothing to worry about except for He Niang.

Coincidentally, Zhang Shangshu said that he was summoned by the emperor in recent days, and it happened at this time.

Under the action of the medicine, Gu Ningxi was tall and straight, with a clear mind, and answered the emperor's questions one by one with a clear mind. Her voice was hoarse and there was no other way to do it. Fortunately, the emperor didn't care, but her satisfaction with him overflowed from her words.

The emperor also knew that he was wounded in the chest, so he specially favored Gu Ningxi to sit and answer. This is a kind of favor that second-rank prime ministers often have, third-rank ministers and Yuanwailang occasionally have, and fourth-rank and fifth-rank officials have never sat down to answer.

After several times of refusals, Gu Ningxi was forced to sit down by the emperor's words, "This is the order of the emperor". At the beginning, he concentrated on dealing with the bright yellow figure on the throne, mobilized all his attention to listen to the voice, figured out the emperor's emotions and responded appropriately, and did not notice the little **** who came to him to pour tea and water, and bring paper and pen.

It's just that for four consecutive times, the little eunuchs who bowed their heads were dressed in different colors. Gu Ningxi thought to herself, are the rules in the palace so careless? Why are you dressed so casually and chaotically?

Compared with their new Gu mansion, when the lady was in charge, the servants were divided into male and female grades, and the clothes were uniformly tailored for each season, with the same color and similar patterns, so you could tell at a glance whether they were in charge or handymen. Gu Ningxi liked this very much. Listen to He Mother mentioned in her ear that well-behaved families behave like this and control their servants.

The eunuchs in the palace were dressed in all kinds of clothes, Gu Ningxi couldn't help but take a few more glances. Naturally, the face is not clearly recognizable, but for the fifth time, it might be obvious that his eyes were chasing the figure of the eunuch, and he was asked by the emperor: "Gu Qing, but what's wrong with the eunuch?"

Gu Ningxi didn't dare not answer, and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the servants of the humble ministers just now seem to be similar in size and shape to the previous servants, almost the same. I am a little surprised at the strict selection in the palace. I lost my composure in front of the imperial court. Please forgive me."

The emperor laughed when he heard the words, and only waved when he had laughed enough. The **** smiled and bowed in front of Gu Ningxi, and reported to himself: "Gu Sicheng, five times in a row, the servants who came to serve you are just changing clothes. Hat, do you recognize it?"

Gu Ningxi hurriedly pleaded guilty, saying that she suffers from face blindness, so she was speechless just now.

The emperor said meaningfully that his illness was interesting and even effective.

After careful questioning, the emperor confirmed that Gu Ningxi has no in-laws, no family relatives, and no old friends. After a long silence, he commented: "Gu Qing is a good talent sent to me by heaven! You have organized this ancient book well. You have poems and books, and you are brilliant, introverted, prudent and dignified, and you have a rare background, temperament, and situation, so why didn't I discover you earlier?"

After hearing that the reward that Gu Ningxi requested was to serve her grandmother in good faith, and the crimes related to the care of her grandmother when she was healthy and Gu Ningran's crimes behind the scenes, the emperor issued an imperial decree.

Gu Ningxi performed outstandingly all the way, she came out of the palace and went back to the Ministry of Rites to appeal to Zhang Shangshu. She had a lot of things at home recently and was ill, so she wanted to take a ten or even twenty days off.

Zhang Shangshu naturally agreed. Qin Sizheng felt that Gu Ningxi's big show this time made his immediate boss incompetent, so he hid himself from showing up.

When Gu Ningxi returned to her home, before she could sit still and take a breath, she was called by Gu Ningran again.

Gu Ningran came here full of anger.

A dozen or so days ago, he was dragged into the river by Gu Ningxi, a lunatic, in the suburbs of Beijing. He didn't know where he hit, leaving a huge and deep **** on his forehead. After half a day, he returned to Beijing for medical treatment. It was said that the wound was infected and unclean. There will be scars after healing.

He was so angry that he tied his hair in a bun and had to work hard to cover it up, put on powder every day to lighten his scars, was laughed at by his colleagues for being full of makeup, whether he violated the precepts of officials and went to prostitutes, etc.

It was even worse on the second day of junior high school, the superior of the Hanlin Academy directly said that his disfigurement was unsightly, and he was not required to be on duty for a month or two, and it was better to hide in the mansion to improve his appearance.

Gu Ningran didn't dare to contradict her boss, and returned to the old Gu's mansion with a sense of loss of face. It wasn't long before she was entangled in lawsuits by a secretary, before she knew that Gu Ningxi had sued him.

Maybe the boss bullied him and treated him coldly because of this lawsuit!

Gu Ningran clamored to see her grandmother, and said a lot of Gu Ningxi's heartbreaking words.

Gu Ningxi couldn't bear it anymore, and swore in public that she would have nothing to do with the Gu family of Hannan Road in this life, and she cut off the retreat of the Hui people.

Gu Ningran thought about the letter written by the governor of Hannan Province to support Prime Minister Gu's descendants, the land and ancestral property in his hometown, and the fact that the Gu family's double beauty would not be mentioned again in the future. There was no mention of grandmother again.

Gu Ningxi clutched her chest and turned back to the house. She forced herself to look at her grandmother, and heard the servants tell her that her face was calm and that she had adapted well to the house this day.

Feeling that he was not in good health, he sent someone to deliver a letter to the second room of Gu's mansion, and asked his second aunt to take care of his grandmother for two days, but before the words finished, Gu Ningxi passed out.

Before dinner time on the second day of junior high school, Second Aunt Gu arrived with Gu Runing and Mo Qiqi, seeing that something was wrong, she drove Gu Runing back, but if she couldn't drive Mo Qiqi away, she stayed with her, sighing and frowning to see Mrs. Gu respectively. Yes, less than two patients.

The high fever came and went, Gu Ningxi's whole body was scorching hot, she lost her mind, and couldn't feed drips of water, let alone soup.

The doctor shook his head and said that he could only wait for him to wake up to see Mrs. Gu, and explained many details of his care to Mo Qiqi.

Here, Gu Ningxi kept talking in her sleep, tossing and turning, it was uncomfortable to watch, "Grandmother" and "He Niang" called alternately, occasionally interspersed with two resentful "Gu Ningran", which made Second Aunt Gu, who regarded him like a child, cry wet. handkerchief.
