The so-called witness died, and the case of Qin Yu suing the Duke of Wu for sending someone to assassinate him could only be resolved in the end. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Emperor Qin Ying only reprimanded a few officials of the Criminal Department, and the officials of the Criminal Department used the jailers who guarded the cell that day as a punishment, which was regarded as an explanation to Prince Li's Mansion.

Emperor Qin Ying ordered the Criminal Department to continue to investigate this matter, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that this matter could only be like this, and even the only witness was gone, and there was no real evidence at all.

In Prince Li's mansion, Qin Yu also suspected that the Zhou family and the Wu Guogong Mansion had killed the assassin with their hands and feet.

However, when he sent the assassin to the court, he made preparations, predicting in advance that the assassin would be thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and he had already made people watch the movements in the prison, he was not afraid that Wu Guogong and the Zhou family would kill people, he was afraid that they would not move.

To his surprise, the Assassin was indeed dead, but the man he sent to keep an eye on the prison reported that the Assassin had indeed committed suicide, and that the Zhou family and the Wu Mansion had not found out what had been done.

"Tuesday did go to the prison that night, but before he could clear up with the jailer to enter the prison, the assassin had already committed suicide." So said the man who came to report it.

Qin Yu immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "Zhou Dingwen went to the prison?" Did he go in person? ”

"Yes, Second Master."

Qin Yu felt more and more strange about this, even if the Zhou family really did something, he shouldn't let Zhou Dingwen appear in the prison of the Criminal Department in person. He was puzzled, and finally had to order: "Send someone to keep an eye on Zhou Dingwen and find out what he was doing in the prison of the Criminal Department that day." ”

Zhou Dingwen didn't tell anyone about the doubts in his heart, he had this thing in his heart, and he was heavy all day long. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the assassin was his son, so that his heart was full of resentment and speculation about his eldest brother Zhou Dingxing.

Through some methods, he dredged up the relationship and bought the body of the assassin. In the middle of the night, he sneaked out of Zhou's mansion and came to a mass grave outside the city.

The body of the assassin had just been brought out of the mass grave, had been cleaned up, and was lying quietly on a dilapidated cart, Zhou Dingwen personally stepped forward with a lantern, and with trembling fingers picked open the corpse's clothes, the three moles on his right chest were suddenly exposed.

Zhou Dingwen touched it, and the three moles were real, not drawn, or fake.

Zhou Dingwen quickly withdrew his hand as if he had been stabbed, and looked at the assassin's face again, his pale face was stiff and twisted under the light of the lantern, because he was hanged, his tongue could not be retracted, and it was very terrifying.

But Zhou Dingwen stared at it for a moment, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the facial features of this corpse were a little similar to him.

The lantern in his hand suddenly fell to the ground and went out with a pop, and then he held the cart, his body trembled, and a suppressed cry sounded in the night.

The next day, in the Honglu Temple, there was a lot of snow, Gu Qingwan and Zhuang Yuexian asked people to set up a kang table on the Luohan bed by the window, put a small red clay stove on it, and ate the soup pot.

This soup pot is naturally a modern hot pot, the window is opened, there are just two red plums outside the window, bathed in the wind and snow, more and more dazzling, suddenly there is a wind, roll up some snow, and the fragrance of plum blossoms blows into the window, not to mention how comfortable and comfortable.

When Gu Xianzhen came in, he saw that the two of them were sitting opposite each other and eating happily, the heat was steaming between the two, and the warmth spread, not to mention how warm it was.

A smile appeared on his face unconsciously, Gu Qing saw him come in late, and said with a smile: "Why is the eldest brother coming back this time, come and eat together, Wen Qing go and get another pair of chopsticks." ”

Gu Xianzhen had used a meal, and when he saw that the two of them were happy to eat, he suddenly had an appetite again, and he used a lot to sit down.

He didn't know what he was busy with every day these days, he didn't often see him during the day, and he didn't know what Gu Xianzhen said to Su Zili later, and Su Zili was no longer cheeky enough to come over to disturb him. Gu Qingwan and Zhuang Yuexian accompany each other every day, but they also live a clean life.

Gu Xianzhen had dinner today, and sure enough, there was something to find Gu Qingwan, and he instructed the maid to help Zhuang Yuexian down to rest, so he and Gu Qingwan moved to the study together.

"I really have something to bother my sister to help me with today."

Gu Xianzhen entered the study, motioned for Gu Qingwan to sit down, and while opening her mouth to say to her, she walked to the bookcase, picked up a portrait picture from the bookcase and walked towards Gu Qingwan.

Gu Qingwan took it, looked at it twice, and saw that the face of a middle-aged man was painted on it, which was very unfamiliar, so he raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Xianzhen inquiringly.

Gu Xianzhen said: "This person is a steward of the former Zhou family, Liu Shuncai. Twenty-two years ago, he took a mother-in-law and maid to serve the only son of Zhou Dingwen, the master of Tuesday, to visit the lamp market, but one of them was not attentive and lost the little master. Liu Shun knew that he had caused a big disaster, and he was also killed after he went back, so he also ran away as a fugitive slave that day, and the two children and daughter-in-law in his family became the target of Zhou Dingwen's anger, and they were all beaten to death. ”

Gu Qingwan didn't know about the Zhou family, and raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and said, "What does the eldest brother need me to do?" ”

Gu Xianzhen told Gu Qingwan what had happened in the past two days, and said: "Zhou Dingwen has doubts in his heart now, so he only needs real human evidence to confirm his guess, and he will turn against Zhou Dingxing." Therefore, the eldest brother needs to send Liu Shuncai, a fugitive slave, to Zhou Dingwen. ”

Seeing that Gu Qingwan seemed to have understood what he meant, he nodded, and Gu Xianzhen said: "Big brother took a lot of effort to find this Liu Shuncai and control him, but there was a little accident in the past two days, in short, this Liu Shuncai can no longer be used." However, there was no turning back when he opened the bow, so the eldest brother could only temporarily find someone who looked like Liu Shuncai and Liu Shuncai, and asked him to appear in front of Zhou Dingwen instead of Liu Shuncai. ”

When Gu Qingwan heard this, she understood what Gu Xianzhen meant, and said, "Big brother wants me to make it easier for him?" ”

Seeing that her sister could understand it at one point, Gu Xianzhen nodded and smiled: "I didn't know that my sister had this ability before, but now it is just right for my eldest brother to follow and learn a thing or two." ”

On the day Gu Qingwan and Zhuang Yuexian came to Honglu Temple, because they were afraid of accidents, Gu Qingwan simply disguised herself and Zhuang Yuexian, so Gu Xianzhen knew that she had this skill.

Gu Qingwan nodded with a smile and said, "I'm also always bumpy outside these days, and it's inconvenient to walk, so I thought about these things." ”

Gu Qingwan had the heart to explain, but Gu Xianzhen never found Gu Qingwan's abnormality, maybe with his cleverness, he had already discovered that Gu Qingwan had changed into a person, but because of his love for his sister, he would not treat his only sister with suspicion, only thinking that his sister had suffered great changes in the family and grew up quickly.

After all, due to the fusion of the jade lotus, Gu Qingwan even had many small actions exactly the same as the original owner.

Hearing Gu Qingwan's explanation at this moment, Gu Xianzhen's eyes flashed with pity and shame at the same time, and he was silent for a moment before he ordered someone to bring the person who was going to change his appearance over.

After a while, two men entered the study, one was over half a hundred years old, and his appearance was similar to Liu Shuncai in the picture, and the other was supposed to be a little guy who was going to play Liu Shuncai.

As soon as the two of them came in, a figure shook in behind them, a pair of eyes flashed, like peach blossoms in full bloom, and a green lotus-colored brocade robe was worn gracefully, it was Su Zili.

Seeing that Gu Qingwan only glanced at himself and didn't even say hello, he looked away, turning a blind eye and not welcoming him, and immediately protested: "My cousin is going to show off my skills today, but my cousin came over to cheer me on, so my cousin should give a smile." ”

Gu Qingwan asked the fake Liu Shuncai to sit on the stool in the middle of the room, compared the drawing, looked at his facial features carefully, and said lightly: "The skill is not passed on, since King Ke knows that I want to perform an exclusive stunt, I should avoid suspicion." ”

Su Zili was not angry, and sat on the Taishi chair next to Gu Xianzhen with a smile, and said, "This son naturally knows that the skills are not passed on, but I'm not an outsider." If you are your own person, you will be polite. ”

Gu Qingwan rolled her eyes and ordered someone to fetch her disguised things. Gu Xianzhen pointed to the man who looked like a little guy and said, "Follow along well, and it will be your business to disguise him under Zhou Dingwen's nose in the future." ”

The little guy hurriedly bowed down to answer, and saluted Gu Qing late to thank her for her missionary grace.

Soon Wen Qing brought makeup tools, Gu Qingwan explained to the little girl, and at the same time made modifications on the fake Liu Shuncai's face, seeing that she just used those strange things to make two strokes on the fake Liu Shuncai's face, her eyebrows and eyes suddenly became more deep and three-dimensional, and the image was more imaginative, Su Zili couldn't help but stand up, and followed to take a closer look.

His gaze first fell on the fake Liu Shuncai's face and those strange pens and fat powder, and gradually slipped down to Gu Qingwan's hand, her hand was really beautiful, white and delicate, her nails were trimmed very neatly, and they were not long, and they were not dyed with Kodan, but the finger caps were long and glowing with a natural pink luster.

A beam of light came in from the window, and fell on her hand, the light cyan veins on the back of the hand were faintly visible, appearing more and more soft and delicate, and the long fingers held the pen, moving up and down smartly, and occasionally lifting the pen, the sleeves would slide down to reveal a little bright wrist.

Su Zili was looking at it attentively, and suddenly felt a strong wind coming towards him, he looked at it closely, and saw two fingers into an eagle hook, straight into his eyes, he hurriedly leaned back to avoid retreating, and said, "Brother Gu, I have something to say!" ”

Gu Xianzhen poked out his fingers, turned in a circle, and went around the back of Su Zili's neck, and walked out with Su Zili's back collar.

"Oh, lightly! Cousin, help! ”

Su Zili screamed like a strange man, Gu Qingwan raised her eyes and glanced at him, giving him a well-deserved look.

Gu Xianzhen took Su Zili out of the yard, and then let go, and without beating around the bush with him, he said: "Take care of your eyes, don't beat my sister's attention again!" ”

Seeing his cold expression, Su Zili's eyes flashed slightly, and said, "Since Brother Gu has made up his mind to go to Dayan, wouldn't it be right to marry Sister Gu to me?" ”

Gu Xianzhen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said, "Ming Media is marrying?" Earnest? ”

Su Zili was silent for a while, but her expression was solemn, she nodded, and said, "Ming Media is marrying!" ”

Gu Xianzhen laughed and said, "King Ke doesn't mind that my sister has been with someone?" ”

Su Zili immediately laughed and said, "Didn't she all be thrown away by King Yan Guang?" What else does this king have to mind, besides, this king doesn't attach so much importance to this, you know, our people in Dayan are more open than in Daqin. ”

Gu Xianzhen nodded, but said: "Yes, King Ke has also harmed a lot of yellow flower girls, I think I can see a little bit here." ”

Su Zili's face stiffened, and a pair of eyes suddenly became resentful, as if Gu Xianzhen had done something hurtful and unreasonable, and stared at Gu Xianzhen angrily and accusingly.

Gu Xianzhen saw that he looked extremely injured, but he was not moved at all, and he no longer paid attention to him, turned around and walked back, and said without looking back: "If King Ke still wants to return to China safely, it is best not to pay attention to stepping into here and harassing my sister." ”

Su Zili was unwilling for a while, chased after him, and said: "What do you mean by Brother Gu, I really didn't want to wronged Sister Ling, Zhenming Media is marrying!" ”

Gu Xianzhen's figure didn't even pause, and had already passed through the Moon Cave Gate, "Ming Media is marrying me, and I'm afraid that I have wronged my sister." ”

Su Zili, "......"

Gu Xianzhen didn't think about Su Zili as her sister-in-law at all, not to mention that Gu Qingwan had no love for Su Zili, even if Gu Qingwan could take a fancy to Su Zili, Gu Xianzhen would not agree.

Su Zili wants to return to Dayan to compete for the throne, if he doesn't succeed, he won't mention it, marrying Gu Qingwan to him is simply fatal. If Su Zili succeeds, Su Zili, who is the emperor, may not be able to put Gu Qingwan on the throne of the queen, after all, he has no foundation in Yan Kingdom, even if he retreats 10,000, Gu Qingwan can really become the queen, although the position of the queen is a symbol of a woman's honor in Gu Xianzhen's eyes, it is by no means a happy destination.

Not to mention, Gu Qing still has Qin Yu's child in her womb now.

He returned to the study, Gu Qingwan was still concentrating on telling the little guy a few details of disguise that needed attention, and after talking for a while, she took a step back and said, "Okay, I've said everything I should say, let this big brother go wash his face, you come and try it on his face, and I'll point out on the spot if there's anything wrong." ”

Fake Liu Shuncai hurriedly stood up and said respectfully: "I don't dare to be the eldest brother of the eldest girl, the eldest girl is tormented by her subordinates." ”

Gu Xianzhen stepped forward and waved his hand at him before he stepped back to clean the marks on his face.

Just now, Gu Xianzhen had already seen Gu Qingwan's magical disguise technique in his eyes, and he couldn't help but think slightly, and said, "Is this skill known to others?" ”

Gu Qingwan pursed her lower lip and told Gu Xianzhen about teaching the secret guards of the Prince of Li's Mansion to use the disguise technique.

Gu Xianzhen snorted coldly and said, "It's really cheap, he gave a gift to the Prince's Mansion!" ”

Gu Qingwan smiled, but she didn't regret it, she was not an ancient, she didn't have any concept of what unique skills were not passed on, and she didn't think that this kind of makeup technique was her unique skill.

She looked at Gu Xianzhen and said, "Big brother also sent some people over, and I will also teach them this disguise technique, right?" I'm eating and drinking all day long, and it's boring, these disguised things are all natural, and it won't do me any harm if I come into contact with them. ”

Gu Xianzhen is still short of manpower in his hands now, and he also cherishes the people available in his hands, and it is naturally good to be able to sacrifice less, so he stroked Gu Qingwan's hair bun and said, "So there is Sister Lao." ”

Gu Qing smiled lately, "Where did my brother say, what did the younger sister say about helping my brother?" ”

Gu Xianzhen nodded, scratched her upturned nose dotingly, and said, "My sister Gu Xianzhen is so capable, she has to be compared to her brother." ”

Gu Qingwan blinked and said, "Brother is capable, if my guess is right, what kind of assassin is not the lost young master of the Zhou family at all, right?" ”

Gu Xianzhen suddenly laughed out loud and said, "The ghost knows where the young master of the Zhou family is." ”

Gu Qing also shook her head and laughed at the end of the night, she didn't know that at the same time, in Prince Li's study, Prince Li was also talking to Brother Qin Yu about Gu Qing's late disguise technique.

Approaching the end of the year, everything is doing things to summarize and report, today is the day when the black eagle who is in charge of the secret guard of the palace comes to report the matter of the secret guard, he presents an account to Prince Li, and Prince Li immediately showed a look of shock after reading it.

He looked at it two more times, and then looked at the black eagle in astonishment, and said, "Is it true that the expenses have been reduced by at least 90,000 taels in two months?" How is this possible! ”

Black Eagle, who usually didn't look like anything, also looked a little excited, and said: "Lord Wang, it's true, just because the secret guards have learned this disguise technique, the casualties in the past two months have indeed been greatly reduced. The prince also knows that the cultivation of the dark guard is piled up with gold and silver, and raising a dark guard to come out will cost thousands of taels of silver to cultivate, and the best wound medicine is used to treat the injury. These expenses are not counting the huge losses caused by the capture of the secret guards, some of whom are not strict in their mouths and confess important information such as hidden stakes. And now the secret guards can't use this disguise technique freely, and after a long time, no matter how skilled their disguise technique is, the effect will only be greater at that time, and it will be more able to reduce the damage, and the subordinates roughly estimate that only this disguise technique can save seven or eight hundred thousand taels of silver for the palace in a year. ”

Prince Li was still a little incredulous when he heard this, he didn't expect this disguise technique to have such a miraculous effect.

Qin Yi, who was sitting next to him, was stunned for a moment, and his heart was also slightly shocked, but he felt understandable when he thought about it.

The disguise technique taught by Gu Qingwan is indeed wonderfully tight, the secret guards are all going to perform dangerous tasks, with this disguise technique, hiding and escaping after the mission, or running errands is much cheaper, there are fewer casualties, and the corresponding losses of various inputs can save money.

In addition to spending time from all over the country to select the right age, the right identity, but also the bones of the strange teenagers, to use the best martial arts masters to train, teach them all kinds of skills, these are not counted, the secret guards are the best to eat and dress on weekdays, only in this way can they be dead, if there is an injury, no matter how heavy it is, they will go all out to treat it, not sparing gold and silver...... And so on, it is not an exaggeration to say that the cultivation of the dark guard is made of gold.

Now that the Dark Guard's casualties have been greatly reduced, it is reasonable that they can save so much money in a short period of time.

Such a skill was taken out at will, and such a woman, it is no wonder that his younger brother will be deeply in love and unable to extricate himself.

Qin Yi thought about it, and unconsciously looked at Qin Yu who was sitting next to him, and sure enough, he saw Qin Yu bowing his head slightly, a handsome face hidden in the shadows, although he couldn't see his expression, his whole figure exuded a gloomy aura that made people breathe.

Qin Yi sighed lightly and looked away, thoughtful.

Prince Na Xiangli asked Black Eagle a few more words and ordered him to retreat, and then said to Qin Yu with a slight expression: "The Gu family doesn't have any clues, where did he go?" If you can find it back, let's get it back quickly, she is a woman's house, where is it safe to be outside? ”

Qin Yu stood up suddenly, his movements were so great that his leg bent hit the Taishi chair all of a sudden, and the Taishi chair that was pushed straight forward moved back and hit the wall pillar behind him, making a dull loud sound, which was extremely harsh and startled Prince Li.

Qin Yu seemed to be unaware, and almost roared: "Who the hell knows where that woman went!" She is such a fairy-like person, how can I be worthy of such a mortal! The son was unwell and retired first. ”

After he said that, he turned around and left, and after the angry Prince Li was stunned, he raised his hand and smashed the inkstone on the table, Qin Yu didn't dodge, he was smashed on the back, and his back was in a mess, but the figure didn't stop at all, and rushed out of the study quickly.

The inkstone was torn apart, and Prince Li scolded himself, "This bastard boy! Devil cub, what kind of evil fire is sent to Lao Tzu! Unfilial son! ”

Qin Yi saw that Prince Li was really angry, and he was also helpless, and persuaded: "Father also knows that Ah Yu is not angry at his father, he is young and vigorous, and he has really red eyes in the past two days, and it is uncomfortable." ”

Prince Li rubbed the corners of his forehead, and scolded: "I can't even look at a woman, I can stand it like this and have the face to make fire at my father, how can this king raise such a coward!" ”

Qin Yi, "......"

Prince Li scolded two more sentences, and finally said: "You draw some more people from the palace and look for them again, a big living person can't disappear out of thin air." ”

Qin Yi responded, but said: "Father, the people have found it, but I am afraid that the Gu family will not be willing to return to the palace and succumb to the position of the side concubine." Since ancient times, the capable have lived in it, and the ability of the Gu family can take the position of a royal concubine. If it is a side concubine, but it is the source of chaos, father, this person, do you really want to find it? ”

Prince Li was stunned again, his brows tightened, and he said half-loudly: "I found someone first, and then I said, as for your unpromising brother, no one can find it, and Lao Tzu will see that he is also abolished!" It's really worry-free! ”
