Chapter 180: Brother and Sister
Qing Li suddenly remembered that when he saw Duanmu Hitomi in the Prince's Mansion that day, at first glance, he actually felt that she and Ling Qianyu were somewhat similar in appearance, at first he only thought that it was husband and wife, but now he realized that they were related by blood at all!
Prime Minister Duanmu's asthma is hereditary, except for Duanmu Hitomi, every child has more or less symptoms, and Duanmu Hitomi's specialness is only due to the fact that she was not born to Prime Minister.
Qing Li somewhat understood why he mentioned to Luo two years ago that Duanmu Tonggong's cold disease needed to be well recuperated, but he was forced to become pregnant by Luo.
I'm afraid that it is Prime Minister Duanmu, and he has planned to stuff this eldest daughter into the brothers of the Ling family early on, and choose the one who is most likely to ascend the throne in the future, and the latter Duanmu Hitomi will be able to mother the world.
But no matter which one it is, they are all brothers with Duanmu Hitomi!
This kind of unethical thing is already disgraceful, and others don't know about it, but she Luo is very clear, if she still lets Duanmu Hitomi give birth to offspring, wouldn't it be harmful?
How can a child born to a brother or sister survive normally?
Luo must be aware of the stakes, and he doesn't want his daughter to be too embarrassed in the future, so he has to make this decision......
Qing Li sighed, I really didn't know what to say.
Seeing that Xiyan was still smiling to herself, Qing Li pulled the corners of her mouth helplessly, and suddenly her mind flashed, and she asked: "That Duanmu Tong is the emperor's daughter, does the emperor know about this?" β
Thinking that ten months after Ling Chu and Luo did that file, Luo gave birth to a daughter, anyone might doubt it!
What's more, Duanmu Hitomi can really vaguely see some of Ling Chu's shadow on his appearance, so others don't think about it. However, if you really have a heart, how can you not be clear?
knew that it was his daughter, but he still agreed to marry her son. secretly acquiescing in this unethical marriage, what is the emperor's idea?
The smile on Xiyan's lips suddenly froze, and he patted his head, "That's right!" How did I not think of that? It's impossible for the emperor not to know! Why do you still agree that Duanmu Hitomi has become the prince Liangdi? Even if she is abandoned now, she can't resist the fact that their brother and sister are incest! β
The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.
If the incest between Ling Qianyu and her sister spreads, it is estimated. His reputation is completely finished!
Let's not mention how many opposing voices there will be when he ascends the throne in the future, but the whole world knows that he is a person who violates ethics and morals. How can the people be assured that such a person will govern the country?
Obviously, there was a stove in the room, which was warm, but Xiyan couldn't help but shudder, "This emperor." It's to push your own son into the fire pit! He is Lao Tzu who harms his son. Luo is a mother who harms her daughter, and these two really smell like each other! β
Xi Yan rolled her eyes with disdain, sure enough, the king's heart was unpredictable, what was the emperor thinking about in his head!
Qing Li was silent, and saw a piece of carbon fire in the furnace next to him "crackle" and exploded, and sighed helplessly, "He shouldn't be trying to harm the prince, just one more means of threat......
Ling Chu's body. It's getting worse and worse in recent years, and he doesn't know how long he has left. But if he really wants to leave this country and this supreme position of power, he is unwilling.
The prince of the court and the middle of the court fought to win the gang and formed a faction, how could he not know?
In the past, when the second prince had this intention, when Ling Chu was at the peak of his integrity, of course, he was unhappy because of this, so he could still behead the second prince to set an example.
But over the years, among all his sons, the really capable ones are the crown prince and Ling Qianmo, if they are killed again, what if there is no heir in the future?
Therefore, for the open and secret battle between the two, Ling Chu has always maintained a state of turning a blind eye, and in the end, whoever kills the deer depends on his ability.
As long as it does not jeopardize his position......
His body has deteriorated over the years, and he probably guessed the reason, except for those few people who did his work and feet in his diet, what else should he do?
His life and power have been challenged, how can he sit idly by?
Over the years, Ling Qianyu and Ling Qianmo have fought against each other, and they are half a catty, but he sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, and did not comment.
But what if the two join forces to deal with him? If he doesn't have some means to guarantee the bottom, how can he feel at ease?
And this Duanmu Hitomi is one of his calculations.
Even his own son has been in the shadows, Ling Chu is enough......
Xi Yan was dumbfounded, and then looked at Qing Li's eyes and became strange, "Li, how do you know these things?" "Even if she sent the most powerful detective to investigate, I'm afraid she won't be able to get such a detailed answer!
Qing Li smiled.
The thoughts of these superiors are nothing more than the word power, and the people she sent to Ling Chu's side will have news to report, not to mention, from her father, she has also heard how enthusiastic Ling Chu is about the existing one......
Shrugged his shoulders indifferently, Qing Li said lightly: "Find out." β
Xi Yan stared at it for a long time with a look of "liar to the ghost", "You have to be so powerful, when the Qing family falls down one day, come to my Wuji Gate, and I will let you be the deputy master!" β
It's a pity that this kind of manpower doesn't dig up!
Qing Liguan'er, "Okay, but it's impossible in this life, maybe you can try it in the next life......"
"Cut!" Xi Yan waved his hand disapplausively, poured himself another glass of wine, and drank it all, "Li, you asked me to investigate the matter of Wujimen and Shulian before, it really made my head big!" Which of these two is not a forbidden area in the door? The account of them can almost be said to be a blank slate! β
Lowering his head in some frustration, Xiyan casually played with the empty porcelain cup in his hand, and said slowly: "I can't find out what the specifics are, but it is said that during the period when the Wuji Gate was destroyed, there was a Xichuan elite guard stationed in the Void Peak, and my subordinates also inquired from a hunter that one night, the mountain was in flames, and there were shouts and shouts to kill......"
Leaning forward, Xi Yan looked into the pair of bright eyes, "Xichuan's elite guards, only the emperor can move, the jade pendant you mentioned to me, I'm afraid it's a token, and the destruction of the empty door is obviously not the reason for Shulian alone, and even involves the Xichuan royal family......"
"Gu Shaojue?" The piece of jade pendant that Gao Ying picked up was Gu Shaojue's thing, and the elite guards were Gu Shaojue's subordinates, could it be said that Gu Shaojue was going to destroy the Void Gate?
Xiyan bowed slightly, "You said that Shulian is Gu Shaojue's master, I went to investigate, and it is true that Gu Shaojue is very poisonous." As for the relationship between Shulian and the Void Gate......"
She paused suddenly, her eyes lit up meaningfully, "Li, I don't know if Shulian has anything to do with the Void Gate, but there is a person who has a great connection with the Void Gate. β
"Who?"
"Hall Master."
"Grandpa!" Qing Li was surprised, and after getting Xiyan's affirmation, his eyebrows were even more raised.
When she asked her grandfather about the Void Gate and Shulian that day, she hadn't heard him mention these things! But...... Why hide it from her?
"You probably don't know that the master of the Qing Hall is not only good at medical skills, but also extremely good at the Five Elements Technique, when he was famous all over the world, your father was still young. But later, he retired, and the world only rumored how advanced his medical skills were, and forgot about his mastery of the five elements of yin and yang! Xiyan shook his head and said slowly.
What she likes to watch the most is Qing Li's helpless look!
Tsk, that's pretty exciting!
"That's why grandpa has something to do with the Void Gate? Aren't the world's famous Taoist priests all empty disciples? Qing Li almost subconsciously defended Qing Luo, she didn't know why, there seemed to be something she didn't want to touch, once it was revealed, she would be afraid......
Xiyan tilted his head and looked at her obliquely, "Indeed, this is nothing, but a person, divination, five elements, deduction, and calculation are all proficient, and if he goes in and out of the Void Peak all the year round, can he explain something?" β
Qing Li's heart moved slightly, and when he saw Xi Yan's slanted eyes, his face was as indifferent as water, "Okay, then I may be able to get something I want from my grandfather." β
She stood up, patted Xiyan's shoulder with her hand, and said with a smile: "Yan, thank you, it's windy by the river, you better go back as soon as possible." β
Without waiting for Xiyan to answer, the person was already out of the inner room.
Xiyan looked at the royal blue soft silk curtain that she put down and was still shaking back and forth, and shook her head with a smile, "I even forgot to take the thin curtain, what else is it contained?" β
Shrugging her shoulders indifferently, she recruited a few more beautiful men to serve.
Qing Li got out of the painting boat, stood by the river and blew the wind for a while, and felt that the previous depression in his chest was not channeled, but intensified.
Grandpa has something to do with the Void Gate, and may even be the Void ProtΓ©gΓ©, but why has she never heard him mention it? Since he was a child, he has never seen him fiddle with the Five Elements Technique, and he has never let her know his hidden skills......
Qing Li suddenly felt a little dizzy, got into the carriage when he came, and directly ordered to go to the Qing Mansion.
Some things are better to ask in person......
It's just that this face-to-face failed after Qing Li knew that Qing Luo had left again.
She has been busy conditioning Xu Huayun's body in the past few days, and she is arranging some dark lines, and she hasn't been back for a while, so she doesn't even know when he left......
"Uncle Xu, how many days has Grandpa been gone? Did you say where to go? Qing Li pulled the housekeeper and asked, although he knew that Uncle Xu was unlikely to know his grandfather's whereabouts, but he still asked without giving up.
Sure enough, as she thought, Qing Luo left without leaving anything, and Xu Bo only thought that he was going to play again.
Qing Li smiled, didn't say anything, and just walked into Qing Luo's study.
All the furnishings are no different from when she came back, but this study has been deserted in recent years due to the lack of an owner.
She remembered that among the three portraits of pine, bamboo, and plum hanging in the main hall, there was a dark grid behind the plum blossom calligraphy and painting, and Qingluo usually hid some things in it, most of which were precious medicinal materials, and every time she was "ransacked", she still put them in their original positions without repentance.
I don't know what's wrong with me, the ghost makes the god send a god, Qing Li walked to the calligraphy and painting, and gently rolled it up...... (To be continued......)
