Chapter 334 The truth comes out
"Isn't that right? Over the years, her father has not come looking for her, nor has he shown any intention of acknowledging her, which is why you and Mother have been raising her."
When I told you and my mother that Huihui should marry me, you and my mother immediately objected.
And then? Ah! In the end, her mother took her to the palace…
“Yutang, to outsiders you are just like siblings. We can’t do that. After all, she is a young lady from the Shen family of Dongyue.”
Besides, you have a wife and children now, don't you? Why are you still holding onto this issue?
"Isn't Ziyu good enough to you?"
"But she's not Huihui!"
"So you sent Mu Ziyue (Mu Ziyu's cousin and Zhao Yuming's biological mother), who had bullied Huihui, to the bed of the head of the Shen family in Dongyue?"
Then have her killed, and bring Shen Yunxiao (Zhao Yuming) back? Let him manage Jinyulou, right?
"Yes, I did it all. I won't let any of those who bullied Huihui get away with it."
They all deserve to die, they all deserve to die!
"Yutang, the head of the Shen family is Huihui's own brother. Turn back before it's too late, don't ruin the lives of your whole family."
"So what if he's her own brother? If he hadn't looked down on Huihui for being shameful, would Huihui have stayed in Dongyue?"
"Oh, Yutang, it was the Shen family who did it to protect Huihui!"
Huihui has been gone for almost thirty years; it's time for you to let go.
"Let go! How can I let go! Every time I close my eyes, I dream of Huihui growing from a tiny little baby into a graceful young woman."
"I'm not reconciled! If you had agreed to let Huihui marry me back then, she wouldn't have died!"
"Don't you know what the situation was like back then? If you had married Huihui, what would the Shen family have thought?"
How can our whole family survive in Beijing?
Marrying Huihui into the Gu family was all for the sake of the Ning family…
"Enough! Heh, for the sake of the Ning family? For the sake of the Ning family, you're sending Huihui to the Gu family?"
After Huihui married into the Gu family, did things get better for the Ning family? Ah! Did things get better?
That Gu Haozhen is just a child who never grew up, a complete jerk. He doesn't like Huihui at all.
"I thought that after you died, I would separate my brother's family and then go to Gu Chenglin to carry out my plan."
wait for me……"
"Enough! Hua Yutang! Haven't you harmed that child enough? Why are you still holding onto this grudge?"
"I'm going to keep harping on him? Yes, I'm going to keep harping on him."
Why should that birthmark appear on that bastard? It should be on my son!
I am the eldest son of the Hua family! He's the one who killed Huihui.
He's a jinx, why did that birthmark appear on him? Ah!
"If it weren't for him, would Huihui have been targeted by that old scoundrel Zheng Sihan? Would they have killed her!"
"Hua Yutang, do you think I'm blind? If it weren't for your people deliberately leaking Master Fakong's prophecy to Zheng Sihan..."
How could he target us at every turn? If it weren't for your people stealing the jade pendant that Master Fakong left for the late emperor...
Knowing everything beforehand and poisoning the Rongguo Duke's mansion, which led to the death of the old Rongguo Duke, would Huihui be in a hurry to rush home?
If your people hadn't discovered the birthmark before Huihui gave birth, would they have switched Huihui's newborn baby?
Huihui trusted you so much as her brother back then, entrusting everything to you.
She even gave you all her cards, but what did you do?
What has that child endured all these years? You know better than anyone else.
"Hehe, of course I know. If it weren't for that old woman cheating on me while she was heavily pregnant back then."
"If it causes premature birth, my people won't do this deal with her."
"Then why did you let that old woman torture him?"
Ruyi, [I'm numb!]
Okay, let's continue listening.
So that's why Granny Gu went there for an affair back then.
"Hehe, that old woman's child isn't her current husband's."
The man she was having an affair with was also killed by my men—the kind that wipes out the entire family!
Do you think that old woman will let him go? I don't need to tell her any of that.
Ruyi: [This person is absolutely insane.]
[He's not just a madman, Ruyi, how about we give him some poison?]
Are you afraid he'll expose your man's past?
[That's one point. I think this person is far more cunning than Zheng Sihan.]
[You mean he was detrimental to the emperor?]
We have to be careful. Our plan has finally started to get on track, and I don't want it to be ruined.
Let me look around and see if I can find something that will make it obvious that the pill is identifiable.
[It's up to you now, preferably tonight.]
OK, mission accomplished.
“You… but he is still Huihui’s son.”
"That bastard didn't die no matter how much that old woman's family tortured him. He was even sent to the vanguard camp at the border and survived. Gu Yunhe even discovered his identity."
If my people hadn't notified me in time, I might have personally gone to the border to see him and play the victim..."
"you……"
Ruyi: [Wow, this whole thing with Jin-jie is a bit strange.]
[Haha, I never expected this. He orchestrated all of this. He really went to great lengths.]
A lowly bastard?
Ha ha.
Gu Chenglin was extremely grateful to his uncle for being able to return home after being discharged from the army.
He kept saying how grateful he was to his uncle for giving him a new life, otherwise he would have been buried on that grassland.
I thought I had found my family, but now it seems...
[Jin-jie, is this recording okay?]
No problem, I'll deliver it to my cousin in a bit.
That makes sense now; it seems that all the money Granny Gu received came from this person.
Granny Gu's arrogance and domineering nature were only possible because he had her backing; it's just a pity...
I suggest you discuss this with Gu Chenglin.
We'll talk about it later.
[Then what about this poison?]
【Found it?】
"Yes, it's about gradually weakening the body's internal organs and accelerating the loss of vitality. How about that?"
Be discreet; don't tell Gu Chenglin about this.
【Know. 】
"What a terrible thing! How could I have given birth to such a rebellious son? You are going to ruin my Hua family!"
"Destroyed the Hua family? Haha, you destroyed me the moment you married Huihui off."
"What sins have I committed?!"
Ruyi, [Jin-jie, does his interest in his own sister count as...?]
[No, haven't you heard that Gu Chenglin's mother isn't the Hua family's biological daughter?]
The Shen family of Dongyue? Isn't that Zhao Yuming's family?
The eldest brother said that Zhao Yuming's original name was Shen Yunxiao, the same as Gu Chenglin's eldest brother's name.
Moreover, the Mu Ziyue they just mentioned seems to be Zhao Yuming's mother.
I see, I see.
Ruyi, [Humans are truly complex.]
[It's really complicated; it's giving me a headache. This Duke of Ningguo, for his own selfish desires, actually ruined Gu Chenglin like that.]
Blame your mother-in-law for trusting this person too much.
She probably thought this older brother was reliable.
What goes around comes around; no one escapes the wrath of Heaven. Consider Gu Chenglin's suffering as atonement for his mother's sins.
That's the only way to put it; Gu Chenglin's mother did it all to keep her son alive.
Granny Gu had such a premature birth, and was still plotted against. In the end, she found out that her child had died. How could the other party not seek revenge after finding out?
The Duke of Ningguo shouted with eyes wide with rage, "I was just one step away! Just one step, and I don't know who ruined it."
Father, why, why are you alive!
The old Duke Ning snorted coldly: "You're just hoping I'll die? Too bad, Old Master Chu said I can live for another twenty years."
The Duke of Ningguo gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, you are alive. You must live well. I will make sure you live well."
I haven't found the pen that Huihui hid yet, and that bastard Gu Chenglin hasn't even entered the court yet. How can you die?
You can't die, in twenty years? Twenty years would be great!
Hearing his gritted teeth, Dongfang Jin snorted disdainfully. This old man is really courting death.
