Chapter 1 You want to kill me right after you traveled through time, right?
Chapter 1 You want to kill me right after you traveled through time, right?
"Da Lang, it's time to take your medicine!"
The words "the BUFF is fully stacked" immediately made Gu Jingzhi, who was originally drowsy, energetic!
His heavy eyelids suddenly opened, and an old man was holding a bowl of medicine, looking at him with a worried look on his face.
and many more……
This is……
Gu Jingzhi frowned, and suddenly felt a dead memory attacking his brain!
I died and traveled through time again!
He traveled back in time to the body of the eldest son of a marquisate with the same name and surname, and to a parallel time and space similar to the ancient Great Celestial Empire - the Great Xia Dynasty.
The father is indifferent, the stepmother is vicious, the brothers are calculating...
He had just come down from the imperial examination hall when he unfortunately caught a cold. His stepmother beat him and poisoned him to death, and let her own son take his place on the imperial examination list.
Gu Jingzhi frowned slightly. This stepmother named Song Yu was the illegitimate daughter of the prime minister Song Pu. She was originally just a concubine, and was made the legal wife after the original owner's mother passed away.
With her status, it was not difficult for her to know the list of successful candidates in the imperial examination.
Tomorrow is the day when the results will be announced. If you knew you were not dead, you wouldn't think of doing anything weird again, right?
"Dalang, are you okay?"
The old servant saw that he didn't say anything and thought something was wrong.
Gu Jingzhi shook his head and was about to speak when there was a sudden noise outside the door and an extremely arrogant voice yelled outside.
"Gu Jingzhi, are you dead or not? If you're not, get out of here right now! You're so rude in front of our father!"
Immediately afterwards, the door was kicked open with a clang, and three people walked in.
The leader looked a few years younger than Gu Jingzhi, followed by a couple, who were the original owner's father and vicious stepmother, as well as the third brother Gu Xiu who was ready to take his place!
They saw Gu Jingzhi just sitting at the head of the bed, staring at them blankly.
"Gu Jingzhi, you..."
Seeing Gu Xiu's aggressive behavior, Gu Jingzhi said impatiently: "Can't you see I'm sick? If you don't want to come, you don't have to!"
"..."
Hearing Gu Jingzhi's words, everyone's expression changed, especially the original owner's father Gu Heng, who looked at Gu Jingzhi coldly.
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
"Is there a problem?"
Gu Jingzhi said calmly, "My Lord, I'm afraid you haven't been to this dilapidated house of mine for more than ten years, right?"
"How dare you! Gu Jingzhi, as a son, how dare you speak to your father like that, you..."
Gu Xiu couldn't help it again, jumped out and pointed at Gu Jingzhi and cursed.
"If you don't want to hear it, just get out of here?"
"you!"
Gu Xiu was furious. Song Yu, who was standing beside him, grabbed Gu Xiu and stood in front of him. He looked at Gu Xiu and said with a smile, "Since Dalang doesn't welcome us, then we'll just say it directly!"
"We are here in the hope that Dalang will give Xiu'er his place on the gold list!"
"???"
Are you planning to rob me because I'm still alive?
Gu Jingzhi pretended to be puzzled and asked, "The results of this exam haven't been announced yet, how do you know I'm on the list?"
"Of course there is a way to find out. All you have to do now is agree!"
Song Yu's expression was calm, but his words were full of arrogance.
Gu Jingzhi sneered, "What if I don't agree? Will I not live past tomorrow?"
Song Yu's pupils shrank.
Did he know something?
However, thinking about Gu Jingzhi taking the decoctions they carefully prepared for several days, that trace of doubt was directly thrown out of his mind, and he smiled and said:
"How is this possible? You are the eldest son of our Marquisate..."
"Heh...Young Master!"
The eldest son is worse than shit!
Gu Jingzhi sneered, then asked Gu Heng, "Is this also what the Marquis meant?"
Gu Heng frowned after hearing this.
His eldest son seemed to be a little different from the rumors, at least not as cowardly as others said.
He glanced at Song Yu and Gu Xiu and said, "Wait outside! I want to talk to him!"
"???"
Gu Xiu was stunned. He said to Gu Heng, "Dad, Gu..."
"go out……"
Gu Heng looked a little unhappy.
Seeing Gu Heng getting angry, Song Yu quickly pulled Gu Xiu out of the room.
As soon as the mother and son left, the room became quiet. Gu Jingzhi looked at Gu Heng and suddenly smiled, "If it weren't for the third brother's matter, I'm sure the Marquis wouldn't have taken this step towards me, right?"
Mr. Hou?
Gu Heng, his nerves provoked again and again, could not help but get angry and said, "Rebellious son, do you know that you are talking to your own father?"
"Father?"
Gu Jingzhi sneered: "All fathers in this world want their sons to be successful. Is there any father who would force his son to give up such a bright future?"
"Is it that the Marquis is an unkind father, or is it that the moral principles of this Marquisate are corrupt?"
"presumptuous!"
Gu Heng slammed the table and shouted angrily: "You, a rebellious son, are so disobedient to your biological father and insult the family name. You..."
"Did I say something wrong?"
Gu Jingzhi threw back the quilt, stood up angrily, and looked directly at Gu Heng: "Didn't you come here today to ask me to give the chance of passing the imperial examination to the third brother?"
"Humph!"
Gu Heng snorted coldly: "The third brother is your brother. What's wrong with giving up a place on the gold list?"
"Just a spot on the gold list?"
Gu Jingzhi was so angry that he laughed. He said, "Then I want to ask you, Lord Marquis, since they say the eldest son should be the heir, why don't you give me the throne of Crown Prince?"
"hehe?"
Gu Heng was so angry that he laughed. His disgust for his eldest son seemed to grow even stronger. "I was wondering why you were so disrespectful to your elders today. It turns out you're just resentful of the position of Crown Prince, and you're taking this opportunity to demand an explanation from me! My Ning Marquisate has a long tradition of military prowess, and you can't even lift a finger, so how can you be worthy of the position of Crown Prince?"
"So, that unlearned and unskillful beast, the Third Brother, should have replaced me on the imperial examination list?"
Gu Jingzhi looked at Gu Heng angrily: "Since the Marquis thinks I am not capable of doing this, I will not fight for the position of the Marquis's Prince..."
"But I studied hard for ten years, but the Marquis only sees me as a tool to help others advance. What's the point of me coming here with a father like that?"
"Bastard!"
Hearing him scolding like that, Gu Heng became even angrier and slapped Gu Jingzhi in the face.
"You rebellious son, do you want to anger your own father to death?"
Gu Jingzhi staggered and almost fell to the ground!
Gu Heng continued angrily, "The Third Brother is your brother, what worse than a beast? It's just an exam, so what if you suffer a little loss? You can pass this time, so why can't you take it next time?"
"Ha ha……"
Gu Jingzhi suddenly laughed and said, "Since it's so easy, Lord Marquis, why don't you pass the title of Marquis to me, and you can grab your gun and mount your horse to win another one?"
Gu Jingzhi looked at Gu Heng with a mocking expression.
Gu Heng's lips trembled. This unfilial son really made him mad today.
After venting his anger, Gu Jingzhi felt much better. He looked at Gu Heng and sneered:
"Given the power of the Ning Marquis' Mansion, if they could even tamper with the Spring Examination list, surely it wouldn't be difficult to change other people's names? But I don't understand, why me?"
"Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, so am I not a son of the Gu family?"
Gu Heng was silent, as if he finally understood why his eldest son changed his name.
"My Lord, there's no need to lie about not wanting to ruin other people's futures. Someone who can ruin his own son's future and ruin the future of one or two children from poor families..."
"Why would you, the powerful and influential ones, care?"
"I just can't figure out why me?"
