Chapter 120: Slush Claw

"Xuanmen collected these books in order to prevent the contents of the books from being contrary to Lao Zhuang's theory and violating the harmony of heaven and earth. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 But because many of them are whimsical and shocking remarks and techniques, it would be a pity if they were all destroyed, so all of them were sealed in the library building. Because of the relationship between my Gu family and the Xuanmen, the eldest son also uses the Xuanzi in the table. ”

I shook my dizzy head slightly: No wonder my father is Xuancheng and my brother is Xuanyu, but it's because of this!

smiled mischievously at my brother: "As the eldest son of the Gu family, my brother knows more than me. Father is partial to you. ”

My brother was stunned by me and laughed: "What is the benefit of my daughter's family knowing these things?"

His face changed, and his words were sad: "If it weren't for these changes, you and Shanshan would still be making jade and enjoying flowers in the boudoir, and when you marry someone and teach your husband and children, with the Gu family behind, you are also carefree, why do you have to worry about it to this point." You gave the method of horizontal sword to Second Prince Xie, on the one hand, for the sake of the past love, and on the other hand, for the sake of one day in the future, please ask the Xie clan to help the revival of the Gu clan!"

My brother's words suddenly pulled back my thoughts that were a little scattered because of the old affairs of Xuanmen: Heng Zhu Mo Di has no trouble coming to me now, and he will let it go for the time being.

Gu's revival is the big deal.

And the old case was the key.

Thinking of the speculation in the Xiangtang the day before yesterday, he asked without thinking: "Does my brother know the beginning and end of the fraud case in the science field back then?"

The elder brother's expression was slightly condensed: "When the incident happened suddenly, the Gu family was caught off guard and knew limitedly. Later, when I was detained in one place with my father, I also discussed and speculated that it was He Bingcheng, a member of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhu Cheng, a member of the Jinwu Weilang, who came forward to denounce it. But who was behind them, my father didn't think very clearly. Later, before my father was exiled to Lingnan, the place where we were imprisoned was no longer in the same place, so we could not continue to explore. ”

"And then, was there any new news, or did my father mention anything again?"

My brother shook his head solemnly: "Although there were correspondence in the next few years, my father was worried that it would cause trouble to me after it was leaked, so he never talked about the affairs of the court in the letter, but just cared about our situation and circumstances." Speaking of which, now that you have entered King Xiao's Mansion, you can be regarded as stable, but Shanshan's whereabouts are unknown, which is really worrying. ”

I also felt sorry: "Changruo said that he has been investigating his sister's whereabouts, but there has been no news. When I was a slave in the princess's mansion, I didn't know anything, and I thought that my sister was living in the place of the teaching workshop and wandering around the officials, but I heard Princess Yongjia mention that my sister was taken away on the way to a banquet when she was called. ”

My brother lowered his eyes gloomily: "I was escorted from Dali Temple to Zuoyuan Camp before I could move around a little, so I went to the Jiaofang Division to see Shanshan, and I knew that Shanshan was missing." Looking for someone to theorize, who knew that the people from the Jiaofang Division bit back, saying that we robbed people, and now we are making trouble, and the official prostitute roster is still clearly written, Gu Mingshan escaped, and there was no write-off. We want to send people back early. ”

"I don't know how difficult my sister's life is now, if the person who kidnapped her is a kind person, why hasn't she even sent a message. It can be seen that my sister is not free to move, otherwise she will at least send a message to my brother! If my sister has a good idea, let me know who harmed the Gu family and my sister, I must also make him not feel better!" I thought about the humiliation that my sister might encounter, and I gritted my teeth and said.

There seemed to be a fire burning in my heart, and I couldn't care much about it at the moment, so I told my brother about Zhu Yingniang and my guess about Liu Xiang.

My brother listened to me with a calm face, but the hand on the side of the bookcase unconsciously fisted, and the rice paper under it also had many wrinkles. On that day, your eldest sister and Liu Xiang's granddaughter were both the princess's daughters to be selected, and after our Gu family had an accident, the palace chose the Liu family and canonized her as the concubine of the East Palace. But Liu Xianghuan has been standing up and down for many years, even if he did what he did back then, we can't help him now. What's more, there is no empirical evidence, everything is just our speculation. ”

I bowed my head and said, "My brother is right, but things are still unclear. But if the days are meritorious, there will naturally be a day when the water will come out. As for whether you can help who you can get, there is always a way to think of it. However, now the clues show that Liu Xiang is inseparable from the events of the past. ”

I smiled coldly: "Fortunately, because of the crown prince, Liu Xiang has been fighting with King Xiao for the sake of the prince, which is very beneficial to us. ”

When my brother heard this, he said very simply: "Yanyan, everything is about taking care of yourself, you must not do it for ......"

Before my brother's words were finished, Mama Zhang's voice suddenly came from downstairs: "Qu Zhaoxun, it's not too early, do you think you are going back to the princess with the old slave?"

I know what Mama Zhang really means is that the delay is too long, and it is difficult to ensure that the servants of the Xiao Wangfu who came with me do not inquire, if they find that I am not in the main courtyard, and I am not talking in front of the princess, it is easy to cause trouble.

Then he replied: "Mama wait a while, I'll come immediately." ”

"Qu Zhaoxun?" my brother looked at me suspiciously.

"My brother doesn't know that the maid who my father arranged to change identities with me that day was called Qu Wanlian, and now King Xiao calls me Xiaoguan. The princess protected me again, claiming that I was a distant cousin of her grandfather, Qu Daqian. ”

"Gu's daughter wants to be so incognito, she is really wronged by her sister. ”

These words evoked all the unpleasant memories of my maidservant for several years, and my eyes suddenly became hot and tears welled up in front of my brother, who had always been dear.

It took a while to push the tears back.

Turning his head to look at his brother, he tried his best to smile: "Xiang Chuan has already told my brother the location of the Chunhuamen house, if you have anything, you can go to the house to find someone to send a message to me." There is another important thing to ask my brother, is there anyone who can be trusted and can help you in the DPRK now?"

The elder brother pondered for a moment, a little hesitant: "Back then, the crime was widely implicated, and most of the old in-laws and proud protΓ©gΓ©s were degraded, and most of them were released. is still serving as an official in Beijing, and Hou Xiaolan of the Ministry of Rites Langzhong did not have a high official position at that time, but escaped a catastrophe. ”

Hou Xiaolan, the official of the Ministry of Rites mentioned by Princess Shicai is him.

So much better. It's just a matter of using the princess to test a thing or two.

My brother also told me the names, backgrounds, and positions of several officials, and I wrote them down one by one.

At this time, Mama Zhang's coughing voice suddenly came from downstairs.
