Gu Zixian never thought that Gu Mingyan would come straight to her Pure Wind Garden.
The maidservant served Gu Mingyan some tea. Dressed in a cyan and white robe, Gu Zixian looked even more refined and refined, as if she had never touched the mundane world.
Gu Danyan, on the other hand, had gone from plain clothes to luxurious clothes for no other reason than that he was different from the former Crown Princess Jing.
"I didn't expect you to be the last person around him."
Gu Zixian personally placed the plate of pastries on the table, his eyes filled with disappointment.
"I also didn't expect that you would be able to sit together with me so calmly." Gu Ming took a sip of tea, but he was not interested in the pastries at all.
Reflecting on this detail, Gu Zixian laughed at himself: "I can't poison you, or can you look at my face and not even eat your favorite pastries?"
"Just be careful."
"You're really different from the others." Gu Zixian laughed lightly as he took a sweet pastry and self-deprecatingly said: "If it was anyone else, they would probably say that they have forced me to do so."
Gu Danyan didn't want to drag it out. He placed the letter on the table and pushed it to her: "If you are willing, I can find a good home for you."
Gu Zi Wu's eyes narrowed, and the pastry in his hand fell to the ground.
Gu Liuyan's expression did not change as she watched Gu Zixian open the letter with trembling hands, wishing that he could engrave every word into his mind. After a long while, a tear soaked the letter, and she laughed even harder as she left.
Tightening his fingers, Gu Daiyan did not find her pitiful: "He knows that you lied to his child, so he does not pursue the matter of you secretly changing your servant."
The implication of her words was that she had brought all of this upon herself.
Gu Zixian was slightly stunned, but after a moment, he looked at Gu Pingyan with a smile: "Then do you know what's beneath Phoenix Cry Garden? Back then when you were pregnant, it was Duan Chengxuan who personally mixed that medicine into your food? That child of yours is destined to not be able to survive. "
Gu Danyan felt his breath catch in his throat as he watched Gu Zixian put the letter into his clothes as if it were a precious treasure. Tears fell down his face as he smiled: "Do you really think that I have some other motive for reshuffling this mansion?"
"I just want to know what Duan Chengxuan actually did."
"What else do you know?" Gu Danyan pretended to be calm as he looked at the madness on Gu Zixian's face.
"I also know about his deal with Empress Xu." Gu Zixian stood up leisurely, his hands supporting the edge of the table, he leaned forward until his nose touched hers, and then he said softly: "He knew a lot about you from Empress Xu, and he even knows about those young masters who admired you back then …"
"It's only for the sake of letting those young masters have a taste of you after using you."
The last sentence was deliberately dragged out, followed by a string of light laughter, carrying disdain in it. "Not only that, he had long ago thought of a way to make you leave the prince's mansion with your reputation ruined. For this reason, he did not even hesitate to agree to Empress Xu's somewhat excessive help."
The hand under the table clenched.
Even though she knew that it was all in the past, she was still sweating profusely and her heart ached.
Seeing her miserable appearance, Gu Zixian also sat down in dejection and slowly closed his eyes: "I was wrong to love such a man. I thought the one who came back was Su Yu Wan, but it was you."
"If Su Yu Wan comes back, what about you?" Gu Danyan grabbed the material on his chest with his hand and felt a sharp pain on his forehead.
"So what if I can? I can only ask for a letter of rest and a gift to leave this land of conflict." Gu Zixian's face was filled with helplessness: "How many days and nights have I wasted in this palace? Those feelings have long been all gone, and Father abandoned me, but only my crafty little sister Hua Li told me before I died to live for myself."
As the sound of his voice faded, there was no more words spoken between the two of them.
Gu Zixian had already picked up his luggage, and before he left, he lightly patted her on the shoulder, "You've seen Phoenix Cry Garden's underground. Perhaps you know how terrifying the imperial clan is."
"What's in the Clearwind Courtyard?" Gu Liuyan did not understand, but she knew that Director Gu could not possibly dig up Phoenix Cry Garden's land without any prior notice.
"The Clear Wind Garden is only a human post. From the start, this Pure Wind Garden is not suitable for human habitation, but I have lived here for many years." Gu Zi Wu snorted coldly and left.
Gu Danyan was silent for a long time. She did not think about this. Now that she raised her head, she saw that the trees were still as lush as before.
Then, what was the underground world of Phoenix Cry Garden?
She absentmindedly left Cool Breeze Garden and only felt that the name Cool Breeze Garden was extremely disgusting. On the way, she met Duan Chengxuan and Qing Ze, but she only said to Cheng Shan, who was beside her, "Get me a shovel. I want to see what exactly is going on below Phoenix Cry Garden."
Cheng Shan was slightly stunned, while Duan Chengxuan grabbed her wrist. "What did Gu Zixian say to you?"
Gu Daiyan felt his heart tremble from Duan Chengxuan's actions, so he subconsciously pulled his arm away and looked at him with widened eyes due to fear. "What's buried there?"
This time, it was Duan Chengxuan who was silent.
"I know those are old times, but I still want to see them." Gu Danyan continued to walk towards Phoenix Cry Garden.
Even Liu'er and Ping Chuan, who had followed closely behind, stood in front of his guards. Qing Qing, on the other hand, could only feel that something was wrong and hid behind Liu'er, watching as her mother smashed the bricks and dug them up before watching as her father led his men to surround them.
Gu Daiyan's movements were very fast, he even dug a deep hole under the huge tree.
However, Ping Chuan's expression changed after he dug something up. He stopped Gu Pingyan before Duan Chengxuan's pale face and said, "It's not something good."
"Get out of the way." Gu Liuyan had to use all of her strength to push him away.
After taking a few steps back, he was able to clearly see what was underneath the dead tree.
Just like the Soul Suppressing House at the foot of the Yin Mountain, it was filled with yellow paper. The only difference was that inside the Soul Suppressing House, there was a wooden box containing yellow paper.
Under the dead wood, there were many urns filled with rotting yellow paper.
Duan Chengxuan rushed forward to explain, but Liu'er stopped him. "Miss should know the truth."
Gu Liuyan bent down and dug out two sealed urns with both hands.
When the lid was removed, however, human bones were placed inside.
"I should have thought of it earlier. After all, I am also considered to be the witch's descendant." Gu Liuyan laughed self-deprecatingly as he threw the casket to the side and looked up at the towering tree.
Spring was approaching, but he was still unable to grow a single branch.
The light in Gu Liuyan's eyes also disappeared, disappearing into the darkness.
