^^

 

TN: Counting the last ten chapters of the main story.

As soon as Gao Ke's words came out, everyone in the courtyard was quiet.

 

Grand Princess Ru Ning had been sent away by Yan Wang. The people of Duke Yingguo Mansion felt bad when they were left behind. Now to hear Gao Ke's words, they couldn't breathe.

 

Gao second lady felt that today was simply unlucky, went to the temple to offer incense, but unexpectedly startled by the horse, she couldn’t say how frighten she was. Yan Wangfei even almost hit by the horse. This kind of thing just listening to it made her trembling in fear. Unfortunately the horse that ran into Yan Wangfei was from Duke Yingguo Mansion. Come on, this simply a disaster, who could think properly.

 

Gao second lady hurriedly followed people to Yan Wang Mansion. The mansion was busy with Wangfei's matters, so no one entertained her, but Gao second lady didn't care. She just kept praying to Buddha in her heart, praying for Yan Wangfei to not have any mishap. If not, they Duke Yingguo Mansion would have to take the consequences.

 

Gao second lady subconsciously stood up when she saw Yan Wang. She stood aside and wanted to say a few words for herself, but she really didn't dare. Before she thought about what to do, she heard Gao Ke flatly say that he had something to say to Yan Wang in private.

 

This implied that this was not an accident.

 

Gao second lady gasped. Frightened already not enough to describe her current mood.

 

Gao Ran should stay in the house to serve her mother-in-law, but when she saw Gu Hui Yan coming out, her heart moved and secretly followed him out. Now Gao Ran stood outside by the flower shelf at the moon gate in the courtyard. The vines on the flower shelf have long since withered, and the withered branch were entangled with each other, so the person standing behind it was very inconspicuous.

 

Gao Ran of course didn't intend to end the game, said too much would lead to mistake, not saying anything was good. She came here just to watch the changes, there was no need to expose herself. But when she heard Gao Ke's words, Gao Ran's heart jumped fiercely and couldn't help but look at Gao Ke.

 

Since Gao Ran heard the adoption news, she looked down on this poor boy from the side branch very much. This was the first time that Gao Ran had seriously looked at Gao Ke. When Gao Ran really looked at him, she realized that Gao Ke seemed to be taller than she had imagined, and his temperament seems clearer.

 

Gao Ran silently clenched her palms. Gu Cheng Yao also followed, hearing these words, he almost blurted out: "What do you mean by this?"

 

After speaking, Gu Cheng Yao realized that it was improper. Gu Hui Yan was also here. How could he dare to snatch his father's words? Moreover, Lin Wei Xi was his father's proper wife, and he as the son was very rude to be the first one to ask.

 

Gu Cheng Yao immediately looked at Gu Hui Yan. Gu Hui Yan looked straight ahead, his face was calm and solemn, couldn’t make out his expression, but he did not make any eye contact with Gu Cheng Yao. Gao Ke had expected this scene a long time ago. How could Yan Wang be so easy to deal with? He stepped forward and said respectfully again: "Wangfei accidently injured, and this junior know that this one’s crime was inexcusable, wait for Yan Wang give the punishment. But before that, this junior want Yan Wang to be the judge."

 

Gao Ke swept his eyes around, still standing steadily without moving. Gao Ke's meaning was very obvious. Gu Hui Yan's eyes were deep, and he looked at him for a long time before he stood up and said, "You follow me."

 

Although Gao Ke looked calm, he let out a sigh of relief. The rest of the people watched as Gu Hui Yan took Gao Ke away. Until the two of people’s back could not be seen anymore, the rest of them stared with big eyes, all were astonish and also hesitant.

 

Gao Ke went to the study alone, what did he want to say to Yan Wang?

 

Gao Ke came back unexpectedly fast, and Gao second lady rushed over to see him: "What did you say to Yan Wang?"

 

"Nothing, only some discoveries on the journey."

 

It turned out to vindicated himself, and Gao second lady’s tightly stretched heart that still not loosen, at once became stretched again: "What did Yan Wang say?"

 

"Do one’ best, and leave the rest to Heaven’s will. I have done what I can do. Believe it or not is Yan Wang's business, I’m also powerless."

 

Gao second lady was really anxious that she jumped to her feet: "How could this happen? The horses that our mansion left for the young masters have always been docile, how can they suddenly be frightened? I think this matter has a mastermind, who has such a dark heart, even doing this killing with a thousand knives thing."

 

Gao Ke didn't say anything when he heard Gao second lady’s suspicion, but he turned his head and silently looked at the withered vine and wooden frame hidden by the courtyard wall. Gao Ke looked indifferent and casually said a sentence, not knowing who he said it to: "Who knows? But with Yan Wang, any filth cannot be hidden."

 

Duke Yingguo old madam was also restless after receiving the news. The horses from their home ran into Yan Wangfei. She heard that Wangfei's stomach hurt. Good gracious, just thinking about it Duke Yingguo old madam could feel cold sweats on her forehead.

 

If there was something wrong with Yan Wangfei's pregnancy, based on the degree to which Yan Wang regards Lin Wei Xi and this child... Duke Yingguo old madam didn’t even dare thinking about it. It had been an eventful period for Duke Yingguo Mansion, when it involved the court’s party disputes there was still a chance to breathe, but if they offend Yan Wang, then they don’t need to live.

 

So when Gao Ke and Gao second lady and others return to the mansion, the old madam called Gao Ke immediately: "Yan Wang called you alone, what did you say to him?"

 

Now there were no outsiders, in front Guo Mansion’s family Gao Ke sighed, and finally able to express his suspicion: "Old madam, I suspect that someone has conspired against Guo Mansion."

 

To be precise, it was a plot against him. The person had no intention to drag the entire Gao family to the ground. But this was not important. Gao Ke changed the words a little bit and replaced the target with the entire Duke Yingguo Mansion.

 

Gao Ke has not formally adopted yet, and has not changed his address to grandmother yet, but Duke Yingguo old madam did not notice this at all. All her mind was on the shocking news that Gao Ke revealed: "Is someone really try to harm us?"

 

"Yes, and I suspect that the trick is on the incense sachet." Gao Ke said, "My incense sachet must have been filled with something by some people. The horse will go crazy when smelling this." And it was very likely that the other person also wearing a special incense, the crazy horse rushed in one direction under the guidance of that smell.

 

Gao Ke didn't say the last sentence. The reason was simple. The horse went straight to Yan Wangfei, and who would be able to follow Yan Wangfei all the time?

 

Gao Ke sneered in his heart. It was a tactic of killing two birds with one stone. In order to get rid of him, that person also took great pains and were willing to take such a big risk and personally worked as the bait.
