The Dragon from Hell

From the moment Li Guanjia appeared, Qin Feng felt that everything in the Zhenguo Mansion was unusual.

If Gongsun Chao changed his mind only after Gongsun Miao's mother died, why did he hide the news of Gongsun Miao's mother's death?

This time when Gongsun Miao went down the mountain, listening to the conversation between Zhang and Gongsun Hao, it was not difficult to hear that the two of them had already known the news that Gongsun Miao was coming back.

Gongsun Miao's return was decided only yesterday, and they had already known the news when they set out early this morning.

This shows that Gongsun Chao is not unable to contact the Immortal Gate, and it is even possible that he has been in contact with the Immortal Gate all these years, otherwise it would be impossible for Gongsun Hao to invite two Jindan-stage cultivators to escort him.

This alone naturally cannot be used to conclude that there is something fishy about the death of Gongsun Miao's mother. To be honest, Gongsun Chao could be said to be thinking about Gongsun Miao, not wanting him to be affected by his mother's death. It could even be said that it was Gongsun Miao's mother's will.

But after entering, Qin Feng found that almost everything in this courtyard was new, even the flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, and the soil seemed to have been renovated.

The Zhenguogong Mansion was in good order everywhere, even the placement of a rockery was very particular.

However, the flowers and trees planted in the courtyard looked lush and leafy, but in fact there was no order. Even Qin Feng, who didn't know much about gardening, felt that some flowers looked messy when placed together.

This courtyard looked more like it was temporarily arranged today, and these flowers also seemed to have been planted just now.

But the teacup in his hand was old and looked quite old.

From these, it can be seen that before Gongsun Miao came back, this courtyard was abandoned.

If Gongsun Chao had any affection for Gongsun Miao's mother, even if she was gone, he would have asked someone to take care of the courtyard.

After all, there is still a son like Gongsun Miao, who may come back at any time. How could he let the courtyard be abandoned?

After listening to Qin Feng's words, Gongsun Miao fell into silence and sat on the stool for a long time without coming back to his senses.

Although Donggong Ya couldn't bear it, she nodded: "In fact, I also think it's a bit strange. If my uncle changed his mind only after my aunt left, he wouldn't have treated you like that..."

Gongsun Miao's mother is a gentle and virtuous person. Steward Li also said that when the lady was here, she never treated anyone in the mansion harshly, including Zhang.

Logically speaking, even if Gongsun Chao fell in love with Zhang after the death of such a virtuous wife, he should not only show disgust towards his first wife and her son.

Moreover, Gongsun Miao said before that Zhang had been living a life of seclusion since she entered the family. How could such a pure and simple woman be dressed in gorgeous pearls and raise Gongsun Hao to have such an arrogant character?

Unless, they were all pretending before.

Since they can pretend, what about Gongsun Chao?

Was his affection for Gongsun Miao's mother also pretended?

Moreover, Qin Feng had heard before that the Zhenguogong Mansion had always been feared by the royal family, and the Zhenguogong Mansion had always been on guard against the royal family.

With such a relationship between the two parties, Gongsun Miao's mother happened to be from the royal family. Isn't this equivalent to burying a surveillance camera in his own backyard?

Besides, Gongsun Miao also has half royal blood in his body. If he inherits the title in the future, it means that half of the Zhenguo Mansion has fallen into the hands of the royal family.

As the heir of the Gongsun family, will Gongsun Chao be willing to accept this?

Unless he is really obsessed with Gongsun Miao's mother to this extent, Qin Feng can think of the reason why she married Gongsun Miao's mother, which is to dispel the royal family's concerns about the Zhenguo Mansion.

However, we still need to find evidence to know the truth.

Nan Hexuan, who had been silent all the time, saw that Gongsun Miao had a hard time accepting this fact, so he spoke up: "I know it's hard for you to accept it for a while, and it's really hard for you to doubt your own father."

"But I think Qin... Qin Feng has some truth in what he said. Let's not talk about your father for now. Your aunt and half brother are indeed not right. Don't you doubt them?"

Nan Hexuan and Qin Feng have reconciled, but now he is still a little embarrassed to ask him to call him "Old Qin" as affectionately as Donggong Ya and the others.

The three people were persuading him. Nan Hexuan understood Gongsun Miao's character better and hit the point at once.

Even if he was unwilling to doubt his biological father in anger, he should think about the other two people.

The relationship between those two people and him was not close. Although Gongsun Hao liked to chase after him and call him brother when he was a child, people will change, not to mention that Gongsun Hao was only a few years old at that time.

He had seen Gongsun Hao's behavior on the street before. He was no longer the naive and simple-minded person.The child was pure, and the malice towards him was basically undisguised.

So even if he didn't want to doubt Gongsun Chao, he had to doubt Zhang and Gongsun Hao.

He finally calmed down, frowned and thought for a while: "Okay, listen to you, I won't make trouble for the time being, I'd like to see what happened in the past ten years, what kind of monsters and demons are messing with my house!"

That night, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. The next morning, the servants of the Zhenguo Mansion came to invite them to the hall for dinner. When they arrived, Gongsun Chao's family of three had already sat down.

Unlike last night, as soon as they entered the house, Zhang greeted Gongsun Miao warmly: "Miao'er, come and sit down."

Gongsun Chao's face didn't look as cold as last night. He looked up and down at Gongsun Miao and nodded: "Yes, you have grown up a lot in ten years."

Even Gongsun Hao took the initiative to stand up and saluted Gongsun Miao with a smile: "Hao'er was reckless yesterday and didn't recognize my brother. There were some misunderstandings with my brother's friends. After returning home last night, my father and mother have already taught me a lesson. I know I was wrong. Please don't take it to heart with my brother and your friends."

He grinned and looked innocent.

But if he really apologized, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to smile at this time.

He looked more like he was doing it on purpose.

Qin Feng walked behind with his arms folded, looking at Gongsun Hao's provocative look with his back to Gongsun Chao, and tapped his elbow lightly with his fingers: This family is interesting.

According to Gongsun Miao's personality, he would be furious at this time, and he might even rush up to grab Gongsun Hao's collar and scold him.

But Gongsun Miao glanced at him calmly and said, "Since it is a misunderstanding, there is nothing to worry about. My friend is not a narrow-minded person, so let's just leave it at that."

After he finished speaking, Gongsun Hao in front of him was stunned: "What?"
