Transmigrated into Substitute Bride ‘Fu Lang’

Though that gang of gangsters and Chang Geng identified Mr. Zhao's crimes as witnesses, they also had to pay for what they did, so they were more or less sentenced.

Before Chen Xing could react, Gu Lang quickly stopped the man, he looked at the man who was about to kneel, and said coldly: "No need. This time, you did very good."

Chang Geng moved his lips, those somewhat cloudy eyes filled with guilt, and finally turned into relief. He smiled softly, and he could vaguely see a little refined look on his face like a ghost, "Master, thank you."

After finishing speaking, Chang Geng bowed deeply to Gu Lang, and then left with the officials.

Gu Lang didn't stop him this time, just watched their group disappear in front of him along with the official.

From the beginning to the end, Chen Xing was in front of Gu Lang. He looked at the expressionless man, and he always felt that Gu Lang was in a bad mood at this time.

Chen Xing hesitated for a while, but still did not speak to comfort, he felt that Gu Lang was strong enough and did not need those words of comfort. It was just that secretly, the strength with which he held Gu Lang's hand became stronger and stronger.

Gu Lang stood there and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he seemed to notice something, turned his head to look at Chen Xing, and saw that he was bowing his head and looking serious. He seems to be thinking about something important in life.

Gu Lang was stunned for a moment, then asked directly, "What are you thinking?"

Hearing Gu Lang speak, Chen Xing, who was concentrating on going back and doing something to make him happy, was startled.

When he regained his senses and looked at Gu Lang, he saw that Gu Lang was looking at him steadily, and even raised his eyebrows when he looked over, as if he was curious.

Chen Xing suddenly felt a little embarrassed, hesitated and said, "I'm thinking, let's go back to eat something later, after all, today's high **** is a lot, it's quite exhausting."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's erratic eyes when he said this, knowing that he was not telling the truth, but he did not expose Chen Xing, but condoned his little thought, Following his words: "Well, you are right, maybe we can eat out today and go back, so you can rest a little more."

Hearing Gu Lang say this, Chen Xing shook his head without thinking, and refused: "No, it's not too late, let's go back and do a good job by ourselves. I like to do it myself, Eat what you like."

Seeing that Chen Xing insisted on going back to do it himself, Gu Lang didn't say anything more, just nodded, with a bit of connivance in his tone, "I'll listen to you, go back and I'll give you a shot ."

Hearing Gu Lang say this, Chen Xing was happy, he nodded fiercely at Gu Lang, and said happily: "When we go back, let's make sweet and sour pork ribs, and make pork with plum vegetables, I'll go to the grocery store to buy some red beans and make an eight-treasure rice before I go back later."

"Okay." Gu Lang's voice was full of infinite tenderness.

While planning what to eat, the two walked towards the house, as if everything they had just experienced was an illusion. Today is not to come to Yamen to confront the enemy who once destroyed Gulangmen, but It's like going home after finishing the shop as usual.

Qiu Jiu stood behind and looked at the back of his son and Chen Xing walking away, with a particularly tangled expression on his face, and finally he thought about what happened today, and decided not to go back Well, leave all the space at home to his son and Chen Xing.

After all, with such a big thing happening today, Young Master must be more willing to stay with Chen Xing, he will not go back to disturb them. Qiu Jiu felt that his thoughts were very caring, he praised himself, and then happily went to play with his brothers.

###

On the way Gu Lang and Chen Xing went to buy ingredients, Mrs. Zhao was also helped into the mansion by her servants.

Just know what to do.

In the end, it was the maid Jade, who usually acted as Mrs. Zhao's mouthpiece, who heard the news and scolded the panicked crowd: "What are you all doing, are all of you eating dry rice? Don't hurry up and take the lady to the room to lie down. You go to wait for the lady to lie down, and you go and ask the doctor to come over."

"Yes." Facing this maid who was quite prestige in front of his wife on weekdays, the person whose name was called quickly followed her instructions.

Fei Cui watched the maids lift the eldest lady into the room, she pursed her lips, and decided to invite the old lady to come over in person.

When Jade came to the yard where the old lady was, I saw a plainly dressed old lady holding a string of rosary beads, kneeling reverently in front of the Buddha statue, chanting words without knowing what she was talking about.

Jade glanced at the maid next to her, hesitating whether to go in.

At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded in the originally quiet Buddhist hall, "What happened?"

The old lady opened her mouth suddenly, startling Jade who was still tangled, she raised her eyes in fright and looked forward, only to see that the old lady was still kneeling without turning her head.

This made Jade startled, she hesitated for a while, but still told her purpose, "Old Madam, the eldest lady came back just now, but she was the only one who came back. Madam still fainted at this time, I have already sent someone to invite a doctor, and I hope the old lady can come over."

The old lady nodded, she knew the situation, and then asked casually: "What about the master? Didn't the master come back with the wife?"

Jade stared at the thin back of the old man, and said cautiously: "No, only the madam is back, and the master is not seen."

Listening to the voice in her ear, Jade looked at the beads that fell all over the floor in a panic, and looked at the old lady and said carefully: "Old lady?"

No one answered her at the moment.

The old lady lowered her head and glanced at the beads all over the floor, signaled the maid next to her to help her up, and then walked towards the door with a firm pace, only to see the blood red outside when she crossed the threshold The sky was stunned for a moment, and then he let out a long sigh, looking extraordinarily lonely in the empty corridor.

Jadeite lowered her head and quietly followed behind the old lady. I don’t know if it was her illusion. She always felt that at that moment, the old lady’s figure was hunched a little bit, as if in an instant a few years older.

Under the help of the servants, the old lady quickly came to the door of Mrs. Zhao's room. At this time, there were already many children of the Zhao family who had heard the news.

Seeing the old lady coming, a few surprises flashed on the faces of those people, and they wanted to come up and say something to the old lady, but they were stopped by the old lady.

"You stay outside, I'll take a look."

Several people glanced at each other and responded.

When the old lady went in, everyone outside began to whisper, and the words were full of worry and panic. Only Zhao Jing looked worriedly at the closed door and pursed her lips tightly. The old lady went to the back room with the help of the maid, and saw Mrs. Zhao who was awake under the doctor's treatment. She waved her hand to let everyone around her go down. Mrs. Zhao is thinking about something.

"Qin Xiang, what about Master?"

Qin Xiang is Mrs. Zhao's boudoir name. Since she became Mrs. Zhao, no one has called her that for a long time. Hearing this unfamiliar name suddenly, she didn't react yet, and turned her eyes to look at the old lady numbly.

Suddenly, Mrs. Zhao seemed to be thinking of something, her face suddenly became hideous, she suddenly rushed in front of the old lady, and said loudly: "Mother, think about it quickly. Think of a way, the old man was sentenced to death by the county magistrate, and they will confiscate the property of my Zhao family!"

As soon as Mrs. Zhao's voice came out, the old lady's eyes suddenly widened, with a look of disbelief.

The old lady looked down at the crazy Mrs. Zhao, her tone was a little unstable, "What did you say?!"

Mrs. Zhao thought that the old lady didn't hear clearly, so she repeated what she just said, and then said exactly what happened in the yamen today, and at the end did not forget to curse, " Blame that **** bastard, if he had simply died in that fire, there would have been so much going on there now."

Mrs. Zhao kept swearing and cursing. After she finished cursing, she found that the old lady in front of her had not spoken. She realized that something was wrong and looked up to see the old lady standing blankly. There, an old face was full of tears.

"Mother, what's the matter with you? Don't scare me!" Mrs. Zhao didn't care about cursing, and looked at the old lady and cried out in panic.

The old lady listened to the sharp cry in her ear, and looked down at her pungent daughter-in-law, her eyes were full of despair, but her tone was extraordinarily firm, "Qin Xiang, forget it! These are all It is retribution, these are all retributions, and now it is time to repay the debt, and it can be considered that the debt owed at the beginning has been paid off. We have stolen the good days for so many years, and now we should be content. "

After listening to the old lady's words, she was dumbfounded. The expression on Zhao's face was a little dull, and she said unacceptably: "Mother, what do you mean?"

The old lady gave her a deep look, did not continue to say anything to her, and staggered out.

Looking at the old lady's back, Mrs. Zhao reacted and said loudly: "Mother, don't you want to save the master? He is your only son, your own son!"

The old lady turned a deaf ear to this, but she stopped suddenly when she walked to the door, and then said faintly, "Do you think there is still room for turning around?

We are just ordinary people, and we have no ability to exonerate him in the presence of witnesses. Now it is better to save some energy and find a way out for the children. After all, the house is about to be raided. What should the family do after the house is raided? "

Mrs. Zhao was stunned when she heard what the old lady said, and sat on the bed in a daze. It was not until the door was opened and closed again that she recovered from the trance. Then he covered his face and cried.

The old lady walked to the door, looked at the eyes staring at her, straightened her thin back, and instructed everyone: "Butler Xu, go and prepare a coffin, and then Ask someone to get a mourning hall and prepare a set of shrouds for everyone in the family. Jin mama, go and prepare something that the master likes to eat. Jade, you go and bring me the account book in Madam's hand. "

.

Yet?"

"Yeah, grandma, what happened? Why all of a sudden?"

"Grandma, say something! Don't scare us."

The old lady listened to their words and glanced at their anxious faces. After all these years of pampering, the children of their Zhao family have become vulnerable. A startled bird.

Finally, the old lady's eyes were fixed on the youngest grandson, looking at his immature and ignorant face, she saw in a trance that many years ago, that beautiful woman was holding her young Son, smiling at their family, asking if they need help.

"Retribution!"

##

Three days later, the government announced the crime of Mr. Zhao and others, announced their punishment, and informed everyone of the time of Mr. Zhao's execution.

Suddenly, there was an uproar inside and outside the city, and there was an endless stream of discussions about Mr. Zhao's family. Even Gu Lang, who had brought down two wealthy families not long after he came back, was also arrested. They started paying attention, and even the several stores they opened were paid attention to.

Chen Xing was stunned for a few seconds after hearing the news of Zhao's execution, and then sighed softly, doing too much injustice will kill himself. This word is probably the best word for Zhao. portraiture.

.

At this time, Gu Lang was painting in front of the table, his eyes were lowered, and he looked very serious. Chen Xing, who came in with a bowl of ginseng tea, watched this scene and stood at the door. After a while, he slowly walked over.

Chen Xing placed the ginseng tea farther away from Gu Lang's painting and looked at him with a look of hesitant to speak.

Gu Lang raised his head as if feeling something, and immediately met Chen Xing's gaze that he hadn't had time to retract, looked at his hastily retracted gaze, smiled softly, his tone There was even a bit of connivance in the middle, "Why, do you have something to say to me?"

Chen Xing raised his eyes and looked at Gu Lang, seeing that there was only a little doubt in his eyes, and he didn't look sad for a long time. After thinking about it, he still told Gu Lang the news that was sent just now. , "Master Zhao's execution time is four days later."

The moment he heard Chen Xing's opening, the emotion in Gu Lang's eyes subsided a little, and even the smile on his face faded a little, and replied lightly: "I see."

Chen Xing looked at him with some worry, seeing that he did not show excessive emotions, but still the same indifferent appearance in the past. Whether Lang was happy or unhappy, he struggled for a while and said, "Are you going to see it then? If you want to go, I'll accompany you when the time comes."

Gu Lang was stunned for a moment, obviously did not expect Chen Xing to say such a thing, and then his eyes fell on Chen Xing, looking at his worried look, he instantly understood what he was thinking.

Suddenly, Gu Lang's calm heart burst into waves, as if he suddenly got a big bowl of **** soup in the cold winter, which warmed his heart at once .

Chen Xing stood there bewildered, looking at Gu Lang who became happy for some reason, and felt a little confused. He just felt that Gu Lang was unhappy, why did he change his face so quickly?

Gu Lang didn't say much, just looked at him and nodded lightly, then said: "Well, please accompany me on this trip."

Chen Xing heard what he said and knew that he should not hold those uncomfortable things in his heart, so he also became happy and nodded heavily towards him. Said: "Well, good."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's silly appearance, and the expression on his face became more and more happy.

###

The day of Mr. Zhao's execution was cloudy, and it looked like it was going to rain.

Chen Xing accompanied Gu Lang to the execution ground. Looking at the crowd rushing in from all directions, he suddenly remembered that when he first came here, he had seen such a scene, but that time he only He saw the kneeling prisoner, heard the lively people in his ears, and smelled the faint scent of medicine on Gu Lang's body.

Thinking of what happened last time, Chen Xing's cheeks turned red all of a sudden, and he even stopped moving forward.

Gu Lang, who was walking beside Chen Xing, noticed that he had a slightly strange expression, then stopped, turned his head to look at him, and saw the flickering expression on his face After that, he suddenly misunderstood something and asked him:

"If you are not feeling well, go to the store and wait for me. After a while, I will find you. After all, the scene of the beheading is too bloody, and you are not suitable for staying there. There."

Chen Xing pulled back from his long-term memory, looked up and met Gu Lang's concerned eyes, combined with what he said just now, he suddenly guessed what he was thinking , Gu Lang must still feel that he is afraid of seeing such a **** scene, so he reminded him so euphemistically.

Chen Xing felt warm for Gu Lang's thoughtfulness, then shook his head and said to him: "It's okay, I just lost my mind. Let's go, it's almost time, we Go over there!"

After Chen Xing finished speaking, Gu Lang took a careful look at him and made sure that there was no trace of fear on his face, then nodded, then took his hand and followed the lively crowd , towards the place where the beheading was performed.

, you can't see what's in front of you at all.

Chen Xing, who was still a little worried at first, suddenly became shocked at this time. He wondered that this time it was not going to the market, but beheading, why so many people came.

Just when Chen Xing was thinking about whether they could get in smoothly, or find another high place to watch, there was a sudden commotion behind him, and then the noise around him became smaller and smaller , He felt a little strange, turned his head to look at the place where the strangeness had happened, and was immediately stunned.

I saw a pair of people in mourning clothes walking slowly towards the execution ground. No, but they are obviously relatives.

It was the first time that Chen Xing saw this kind of scene, and he didn't know how to react for a while, until Gu Lang next to him took his hand and brought him to the side, he was in a trance Aware of his own incompetence.

, When passing by them, he glanced at them inadvertently, and then he left unhurriedly.

The arrival of this group of people made the originally lively scene quiet, and also separated a path in the middle.

Chen Xing looked at the dividing line between the sea of ​​​​people because the crowd was too shocked, so there was no time to close it, he hesitated and dragged Gu Lang over. He felt that since Gu Lang's enemy was Master Zhao, he would definitely want to see the final fate of the person who ruined his family.

When Chen Xing was pulling Gu Lang forward, Gu Lang kept letting him pull, and his movements were very obedient. It's just that his eyes bypassed the people in front of him and landed on the old man who was leading the way. If there is anyone in this family who has the slightest conscience, I am afraid it is only this old lady.

When Gu Lang thought like this, Chen Xing had already pulled him to the front, and the two of them were lucky enough to occupy a particularly good position, not far from the trial stand, not far from the where the head was beheaded.

Chen Xing felt that the viewing experience in this position must be very good, so he turned his head and glanced at Gu Lang next to him, only to see him expressionlessly looking not far away, his eyes did not know where look there.

Chen Xing wanted to comfort him a few words, thought for a while and hesitated for a while, but still did not open his mouth, just moved his body towards Gu Lang and leaned closer, getting closer and closer to Gu Lang Some.

Gu Lang noticed Chen Xing's movements, looked down at him, then put a hand on his shoulder, and hugged him in front of him.

Feeling the temperature of Gu Lang's palm and the secret gazes around him, Chen Xing's face gradually became hot. But he didn't want Gu Lang to take his hand off his shoulder, so he looked forward, trying his best to ignore the touch caused by Gu Lang on his body.

The group of people in mourning clothes who came just now also attracted the attention of the county magistrate sitting above, and the officials even drew their knives and aimed them in their direction, like As soon as they move a little, the officials will come forward to clean them up.

Seeing this, the leading old lady raised her head unhurriedly and said to the person who was staring at them: "Sir, we are from the Zhao family, we have no other people here today. It means that I just want to collect the body of my unfilial son and give him the last ride. I also hope that the adults can be accommodating and let us give him the last meal and send him a decent departure. "

The officers glanced at the old lady, then looked at the few people behind her, turned to look at the county magistrate and the master sitting behind, waiting for their orders.

The master glanced at the group of people, his face was a little embarrassed, he turned to look at the county magistrate next to him, wanting to see his attitude.

The county magistrate frowned and looked at the group of people. Seeing that there were a group of old and weak women and children who couldn't make a good climate, his brows gradually loosened, and he said in an unhappy tone: "As long as you don't If you obstruct law enforcement, you will be the one to answer."

"Thank you sir!"

The old lady, supported by the girl next to her, knelt down tremblingly and kowtowed to the county magistrate, then stood up, took a basket from the group of people, and slowly walked He came to the high platform where he was executed, and came to Zhao Yuan, who was already kneeling there.

At this time, Mr. Zhao is no longer as bright as before, and his face is more than ten years older than a few days ago. , his voice was full of guilt, "I'm sorry, the child is unfilial!"

With a much better hand, he gently touched Master Zhao's head and said softly:

"Son, after drinking this bowl of wine and eating this meal, you can go on the road with peace of mind! In the next life, I will join a wealthy family. In this life, I will be sorry for your mother. In the next life, don't go wrong again. Way to go."

Hearing his mother's words, Mr. Zhao suddenly burst into tears, burst into tears, "I'm sorry, mother, it's all unfilial children, let you be a white-haired person to send a black-haired person ."

The old lady didn't say anything, just took out a small glass of wine from the bamboo basket handed over by the girl next to her, and then fed him a mouthful of rice.

The old lady was driven away, and the executioner shoved the cloth strip he just took out of Mr. Zhao's mouth back to him to make sure that he could no longer make any sound.

The old lady took a deep look at Mr. Zhao at last, and was slowly helped by the voice of Mr. Zhao calling for his mother, but at the moment of turning around, the cloudy eyes finally Still couldn't hold back the tears.

Chen Xing felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the scene in front of him, and almost moved his profile, but soon he thought of what happened to the Gu family again, and his sympathy immediately returned restrained.

If he sympathizes with Master Zhao, then who will sympathize with the Gu family who went to Jiuquan because of Master Zhao's greed. The greatest respect for victims is to allow the perpetrators to receive equal punishment.

I figured this out, and Chen Xing's eyes became more and more firm.

"It's three o'clock noon, execution!"

"Sir!"

"Daddy!"

In the noise, Chen Xing only felt that the tip of his nose smelled the fragrance of medicine again. For some reason, he felt that there was a faint fragrance of bamboo mixed in it, like a The scent of the bamboo forest facing the back window of Gu Lang's study.

Gu Lang looked blankly at the Zhao family who rushed up, crying and picking up the corpse of Mr. Zhao, who was still warm, and placed it in their preparations. Put it on a good stretcher, and then carry it to the direction of home.

Look at the cloth that was quickly dyed red, and the bloodstains that continued to seep and drip to the ground under the stretcher, gradually winding into a path.

Gu Lang only had one thought, he felt that the blood was not red enough, at least not as red as the day his house caught fire, he still clearly remembers the day he left home, the sky seemed red There is no end, as if it were going to swallow everything up.

Gu Lang seemed to have heard the screams from the house that day again. The endless screams were filled with endless despair, and they still appeared in his dreams from time to time.

Just as the gloom in Gu Lang's eyes gradually deepened, he was about to lose control of his expression, and when he was about to show a distorted look, he suddenly felt that something was covering the back of his hand, and immediately A careful and soft voice sounded in his ear, "That, is it all over?"

Gu Lang looked down at his hands, as if a kitten just out of the nest wanted to go out, but Chen Xing, who was a little scared, suddenly remembered that he was not alone, he now has Chen Xing Xing, no matter what happens from now on, Chen Xing will stay by his side. From the day they met, they were doomed to never be apart.

Gu Lang restrained the haze all over his body, and gradually revealed a bright smile, "Well, it's over."
