Chapter Ninety-Nine (I): Everyone is shocked by the tiger's den
Killing an envoy means declaring war on the severance of diplomatic relations. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The envoys who came to Chang'an this time came from the six major countries around Daqi, with Northern Qin and Southern Chu as the strongest, and the other four countries were mostly Rongdi barbarians, who had been paying tribute to Daqi, but it did not mean that they were completely attached to Daqi, as long as Daqi and Southern Chu or Northern Qin had a war, they could be aided or enemies.
First, the envoys of Southern Chu were killed on the way to the audience, and in the afternoon of the same day, the envoys of the other four countries were killed in the official post, leaving only the envoys of Northern Qin, unharmed.
Those who seek power in the court know what is most harmful to the country and what is most beneficial to themselves.
So they can often think of going together, and as for the result, it depends on whose tricks are better.
……
On the solstice, Gu Qingning cried until she broke her intestines in the carriage and rushed home, she heard that her father's body had been sent home......
When I arrived at the door of my house, I got out of the carriage and saw that the two sides of the door had been replaced with white lanterns, and suddenly my vision was foggy, and I almost fell to the ground, and I stumbled up the steps and threw myself into the door.
"Father's ......"
When Fusu heard her voice, he came out first, came to help her, and kept shaking his head with tears, Tang Bo ran out, and when he saw her like this, he also looked sad.
"Where's Father?" she asked Uncle Tang, crying.
Tang Bo said: "Miss, my lord, he is in the main house, you had better not go at this moment...... Listen to me......"
She didn't care about it, ran to the main house, Jiang Xiange, who had already put on filial piety clothes, was standing at the door of the main house, her eyes were wet and red, and when she saw her coming, she stretched out her hand to stop her, and choked up: "Qingning, don't ...... like this"
……
In the room, he was lying on the couch, his upper body exposed, his left side and lower abdomen wrapped around bandages, the white gauze was stained red by the blood that seeped out, mottled and dazzling.
His lips were chapped, cold sweat was on his forehead, and he looked at the people beside the couch, even if it was very difficult, but he still laughed out loud.
Hong Luotian, who was dressed in black, finished applying the secret medicine powder of the Hong family to him, pointed to his bandaged wound, and gestured with his fingers: "Do you know? It's just a little bit close, I can really kill you, if I hadn't brought you the Hemostatic Pill, I'm afraid you would really be dead now! Do you say that there is someone like you looking for death? It's my right start!"
Because of the pain, Gu Qingxuan gasped and said with a smile: "At that time, I was really a little scared, I was worried that you really killed me in order to vent your personal anger, you, I really can't rest assured." ”
Hong Luotian snorted from his nose, "Don't say it, I thought about it, anyway, you are looking for death, and I am happy to fulfill it, but when I think about it, isn't this cheap for you? Sending you to meet Lan Xi so early, wouldn't it fulfill you again? Besides, I'm also afraid that after killing you, Lan Xi won't let me go." ”
Gu Qingxuan smiled bitterly a few times, and reluctantly bowed his hand: "Then Gu really wants to thank Hong Daxia for his grace not to kill." ”
Jiang Hechuan, who was sitting on the side, looked at them, but he was still afraid, after all, Gu Qingxuan's incident happened so suddenly.
As soon as I heard that Gu Qinghuan had an accident in the morning, I saw Gu Qingxuan rushing to Jiangyue Tower to find him, saying that he would start planning in advance.
Originally, he sold the killer for Gu Qingxuan and was going to act in two days, but who would have thought that he would suddenly have this decision, so he had to arrange it as soon as possible.
Gu Qingxuan only explained a few words to him and left Jiang Yuelou, after he contacted those killers, he wanted to go to the Gu family to find Gu Qingxuan, but when he saw that he was not there, he had to help appease the Gu family sisters and brothers.
After that, he went to inquire about Gu Qinghuan's news, and on the way, he saw Gu Qingxuan riding the Yin family's carriage and traveling with Yin Jiheng.
rushed to the Gu Mansion to learn the truth......
"Brother Qingxuan, you have to do this again, don't say whether you are true or not, my old life is going to give you a ride!
Gu Qingxuan's face turned pale, but he still patted the back of Jiang Hechuan's hand with a smile, and said: "Don't worry, brother, this knife is still worth it! I entered the palace with Dr. Yin to meet with the book to impeach Lu Yuanzhi, but I was assassinated outside the east gate of the palace, and the court officials, one was killed and the other was injured, isn't this big enough? Isn't my blood-stained fold more credible? Hmph! It was also Lu Yuanzhi's inspiration to me, it wasn't that he used the matter of the envoy to harm my son, and sent someone to assassinate me and I learned in advance, I really couldn't grasp such a good opportunity today......
Hong Luotian glanced at him disdainfully, and said to Jiang Hechuan: "Boss Jiang, look, what kind of ruthless people in this officialdom have become?
Jiang Hechuan and he both laughed. Gu Qingxuan was helpless, in fact, they didn't know that Gu Qingxuan was not 100% sure in advance......
After learning about Gu Qinghuan, he guessed Lu Yuanzhi's intentions......
This was completely unexpected by him.
As the old thing happened, he faced that situation again.
Since some things can no longer be stopped and irreparable, then ...... Let's break the net!
Bet once, no matter whether he lives or dies, his plan can be implemented, even if he dies, he will be buried with Lu Yuanzhi!
However, he didn't die, he woke up, and was sent back to Gu Mansion as a corpse by the people arranged by Yin Jiheng, opened his eyes, and found that he was alive, and the first thing he said was to ask: "What about Qinghuan?
It wasn't until Jiang Hechuan, who heard the news, confirmed to him that Gu Qinghuan's life was safe, that he fainted with confidence.
Fortunately, fortunately.
God finally helped him.
……
Gu Qingning heard the familiar voice in the room, so he stopped, gradually calmed down, sat down on the fence under the porch weightlessly, held Jiang Xiange's hand tightly, and slowed down for a long time, Fang calmed down the emotions of excessive sadness, but his heart felt more complicated.
"Okay, Qingning, don't worry, uncle is fine...... These were arranged by him, in order to confuse the Lu family...... Qinghuan and Qingfeng are fine......" Jiang Xiange leaned over, patted her on the back, and comforted her softly.
Gu Qingning felt a burst of fear in his heart, hugged Jiang Xiange's waist, next to her, and couldn't help but shed tears again.
It was such a difficult day.
When she finished crying, Fusu brought a set of white filial piety clothes, Jiang Xiange wiped away her tears, and said, "Qingning, don't be sad, change your clothes, we still have to decorate the mourning hall." ”
She said all this very calmly at this time, as if she had never cried more than Gu Qingning, when she saw Gu Qingxuan, who was covered in blood, being carried back, she was obviously in pain as if she was going to die, that feeling was only known to herself, she would never be able to tell anyone, the red on his body was a nightmare that she would never get rid of in her life.
Gu Qingning looked at the filial piety clothes, it was clearly the mourning clothes they wore when Shen Lanxi died, it had only been a year, and she was going to wear it again, as if it was a reincarnation that could not be escaped......
She looked away and shook her head in silence.
Jiang Xiange said patiently: "Qingning, don't be capricious, now Qingfeng Qinghuan is not here, only you can help your uncle finish this scene, you can't let his plans be in vain, be obedient, put it on, don't you see that I am also wearing it?"
Everything is fake, everything is his plan......
Her father is the most clever chess player in the world, playing chess pieces between the palms, his game of chess is too deep and too big, people can't see the edge, only know that the final winner is destined to be him.
As for the rest......
Gu Qingning stood up, wiped away his tears with his sleeve, and put on a white linen filial piety robe.
Jiang Xian Ge said: "Uncle should have bandaged the wound, let's go, let's go in and have a look." ”
Gu Qingning let go of her hand, turned around, and was unusually calm, because she had been crying for too long, her voice was hoarse, "No, I'm going to go to the prison of the Criminal Department and send Qinghuan Qingfeng something to eat, I don't know if they have heard the news, maybe they are crying...... I'm going to accompany them......"
……
However, after a long time, after nightfall, a carriage drove straight to the door of Gu's mansion, and it was Yin Jiheng who came.
He had just come out of the palace, there were dried blood stains on his court clothes, and his arm was also injured, and when he got out of the car and saw the scene in front of Gu's mansion, although he knew in advance that this was Gu Qingxuan's arrangement, he was still frightened.
After entering, he urgently asked Gu Qingxuan about his situation, but Uncle Tang couldn't say much, so he could only lead him inside to see Gu Qingxuan.
Gu Qingxuan, who was in the room, learned that Yin Jiheng was coming, so he asked Hong Luotian to leave first, and the father and daughter of the Jiang family all went outside the door. He confirmed to Jiang Hechuan that Gu Qingxuan's life was worry-free before he settled down, and then entered the door and saw him with a weak breath on the couch.
He stepped forward, grabbed Gu Qingxuan's hand, and raised his eyebrows: "Brother Gu Xian! It's done! Lu Yuanzhi's death is coming!"
