Half an hour later, Liu Tiangeng was called into the study again, and after the bookcase, Qin Yu's face had returned to normal, but there was a cold and depressed color that was difficult to eliminate between a pair of heterochromatic eyes.

Liu Tiangeng knelt on the ground and informed Qin Yu of Gu Qingwan's disappearance that day, and said: "On that day, the Song commander sent people to guard the gates of various places in the capital, and investigated repeatedly, but there was no clue at all, and the handling was very clean. ”

Qin Yu heard that Gu Qing left on the day the restaurant opened, and found a secret passage in the lounge, so he immediately laughed angrily, but the laughter had a rough sound, with a clear self-deprecation.

Looking at it this way, she has never given up her plan to leave the palace and leave him at all.

She built Fuyun Hall, probably to pave the way for the restaurant, the restaurant was designed by her, and the secret passage was also prepared by her, and the location was chosen in a densely populated and accessible place, just to take advantage of the chaos to leave when it opened.

It's really deliberate, it's ridiculous that he thinks she has a heart to heart with him.

It's ridiculous that he is still worried about leaving the capital, for fear that she will worry about him and not be able to raise the baby well, she must have wished that he would leave quickly.

That woman should be so proud that she will turn around the group he has coaxed!

Damn woman! No matter the ends of the earth, even if it is earth-shaking and digging three feet into the ground, he will catch her and ...... her

Qin Yu's eyes gradually rose a thin layer of red, and he closed his eyes before he spoke: "Su Zhe, you stay and continue to inspect the fiefdom, prepare men and horses, and after an hour, you will return to Beijing in advance!" ”

Su Zhe was shocked when he heard this, inspecting the fiefdom where he could replace it, it can be seen that Qin Yu Leng Rui's unquestioning eyes swept over, but Su Zhe didn't dare to say anything to refute it.

Qin Yu made some simple arrangements, day and night, he braved the wind and snow, left from the fiefdom, and hurried all the way to the capital. Out of Qiuping City, the wind and snow suddenly became bigger.

The cold snow particles blew on his face with the cold wind, stinging his skin, and also scraped Qin Yu's heart empty, as if it had been torn open, and he forcibly pulled out the hard heart defense, and dug away a piece of flesh from his heart, and the flesh and blood blurred to meet the cold wind that penetrated the bones.

He clutched the reins tightly, his eyes narrowed coldly, and he pinched the horse's belly again, driving the horse away like a bolt of lightning.

The eighteen-year-old boy was emotional, but he suffered such a setback, Rao is Qin Yu's heart that had been tempered on the battlefield was as strong as iron, and he couldn't help but feel a sour and dull pain in his empty heart.

The wind and snow were blowing on his face, and Jun's face felt a little wet and cold, Qin Yu thought that the snow must have melted.

This damn blizzard!

In the capital, no one has been here since the officers and soldiers checked that day, and Gu Qingwan was really relieved. Three days later, the envoy of the Great Yan Kingdom arrived in the capital, and the emperor sent officials of the Ministry of Rites to greet him outside the city, and many people in the capital went to the streets to see the situation of the mission entering the capital.

Gu Qingwan and Zhuang Yuexian are both identities that need to be hidden now, and they are pregnant, so naturally they can't go to the street to greet Gu Xianzhen.

On that day, Gu Xianzhen pretended to be the ghost-faced general Shen Shen and entered the palace, used the palace banquet, and then stayed in the Honglu Temple.

Gu Qingwan and Zhuang Yuexian waited for the second watch before waiting for Gu Xianzhen to come back.

Approaching the end of the year, the weather in the capital was already very cold, Gu Xianzhen entered the house, and his eyebrows were already dyed with a layer of frost outside. There were two pregnant women in the house, and he didn't dare to directly bring in the wind and cold, seeing Zhuang Yuexian and Gu Qingwan come out hand in hand, he hurriedly took a step back, waved his hand and said, "Wanwan and your sister-in-law go in and sit, and the eldest brother will go in immediately." ”

Gu Qing saw that Zhuang Yuexian's eyes were glued to Gu Xianzhen and couldn't move away, knowing that the husband and wife had just had a child, and they obviously didn't have enough affection last time, so they were looking forward to Gu Xianzhen's return, so they smiled and helped Zhuang Yuexian to go to the house, and urged Gu Xianzhen to say: "Big brother, hurry up, big brother is not in these days, and the door of the moon cave is about to be broken by a pair of eyes of sister-in-law." ”

Gu Xianzhen glanced at Zhuang Yuexian with a smile when she heard this, Zhuang Yuexian's face turned red and she was about to pinch Gu Qingwan, Gu Qingwan laughed and continued to joke, "Sister-in-law's face is red, this is annoyed and angry, big brother, help!" ”

There was the sound of Gu Qingwan and Zhuang Yuexian laughing, Gu Xianzhen smiled and took off the big hat stained with wind and snow, threw it to the maid who was waiting, rubbed his hands warm, and brought his robe to eliminate the cold, and then stepped into the house.

Gu Qingwan and Zhuang Yuexian were both sitting cross-legged on the warm kang, and there were several plates of delicate pastries and red date tea on the kang table in the middle.

When Zhuang Yuexian saw her husband coming in, she hurriedly instructed the maid: "Go and bring the decanting soup." ”

Gu Xianzhen sat down on the circle chair next to the warm kang, and when she heard this, her eyes flashed with a warm color, and she glanced at Zhuang Yuexian.

Gu Qing saw that Zhuang Yuexian's face was still red, so she only pretended not to see the couple's eyebrows, and asked, "The eldest brother can enter the palace today, but it is still smooth, I am really afraid that the eldest brother will not hold back and assassinate the dog emperor on the spot." ”

Thinking of his identity and seeing the emperor, he couldn't help but be angry, Gu Qingwan was only afraid that Gu Xianzhen would assassinate the emperor.

Gu Xianzhen smiled, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and said: "Killing him, wouldn't it be too cheap for him, he will always take away what he values the most, let him lose the one he has worked so hard to get, and then regret and unwilling to taste the heat and coldness of the world, so as to be worthy of the spirit of grandfather, grandmother and father in the sky." What's more, the eldest brother and you and your sister-in-law have to take care of you, how can you act rashly and impulsively? ”

In the end, his eyes seemed to be hit with a ray of sunshine, dyed with layers of warm colors.

When Gu Qingwan heard him say this, his heart was tight, Gu Xianzhen came back this time as the general of the Great Yan Ghost Face, and he really had a big plan.

It is impossible for him to forget the treachery of Emperor Qin Ying and the killing of his father.

The atmosphere was a little sluggish, just the maid cut off the sobering soup, Gu Xianzhen used the sobering soup, the three of them gossiped homely, it was not early, Zhuang Yuexian soon showed tiredness, Gu Xianzhen said: "Ah Yue go back to sleep first, I have something to ask about the evening." ”

Zhuang Yuexian knew that their brother and sister had not seen each other for a long time and had a lot to say, so she immediately got up with a smile, nodded at Gu Qingwan, and instructed Gu Xianzhen: "If you are pregnant later, don't delay too late." ”

Gu Xianzhen helped Zhuang Yuexian out of the house, and explained a few words to the maid, and then he returned and retreated.

Gu Qingwan looked at Gu Xianzhen and took the lead in speaking: "Who is the ghost-faced general of Big Brother and Dayan?" ”

Gu Xianzhen touched the hand warmer in Gu Qingwan's hand, felt that it was a little unwarm, took it, walked to the charcoal basin in person, picked up the copper tongs, added charcoal to the gilded lotus hand stove, and said: "Shen Shen, who the eldest brother met when he traveled in the past, can be regarded as not fighting or making a deal, and later because of one thing, Shen Shen owes the eldest brother a little favor, which can be regarded as a sympathy. However, at that time, one was already a young general of the Yan State with soldiers and horses, and the other was the eldest son of the Great Qin Shoufu family who was traveling abroad. This time, the eldest brother escaped from the place of exile, and found Dayan, which was also a coincidence, saving the life of the second young master of the Shen family, Shen Shen appreciated it, and it happened that he had some personal affairs, and it was difficult to get out of Daqin, plus the eldest brother was similar to him, so he came instead of him. ”

Gu Qingwan nodded, no longer entangled in this matter, took what Gu Xianzhen handed over, changed the charcoal stove and hugged it again, and then said, "Is the eldest brother going to take me and my sister-in-law to Dayan in the future?" Support Su Zili to ascend the throne? ”

Gu Xianzhen saw Gu Qingwan's focused expression and smiled, but she didn't answer Gu Qingwan's words, but asked her instead: "What about sister, have you ever thought about following your eldest brother to Yan Kingdom?" ”

Gu Qingwan discovered the temptation in Gu Xianzhen's words very lightly, and he didn't intend to hide it, Gu Qingwan smiled, couldn't caress his lower abdomen, and said: "Brother, no matter what kind of feelings I have for Qin Yu, it is already in the past." I think it's good to go to Yanguo, as long as I can be with my brother and sister-in-law, wherever I go is home. ”

Gu Xianzhen's expression moved slightly when she heard this, a smile like a warm sun flashed on her lips, and she couldn't help but lean over and stroke Gu Qingwan's head like when she was a child, and said: "My sister left the palace because she couldn't forget the name of the Gu family and didn't want to commit to being a concubine, or because she ...... Still thinking about the bastard boy of the Lou family in his heart? ”

Gu Qingwan was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect Gu Xianzhen to have such thoughts, but in an instant, she hurriedly smiled and shook her head, "Big brother, don't misunderstand me so much, how can I treat Lou Minning?" It's really not because of him, I don't have any thoughts about him for a long time, I missed it a long time ago, and now I can't get up at all in my heart. ”

She seemed to be afraid that Gu Xianzhen would misunderstand, and finally added a sentence affirmatively.

Gu Xianzhen's eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "It seems that my sister still has thoughts about King Yan Guang, and my sister still has King Yan Guang in her heart." ”

Gu Qingwan didn't expect Gu Xianzhen to be so keen, and she was stared at by his deep gaze, she waved her hand at Gu Xianzhen as if she surrendered, and said, "Okay, big brother, don't look at me like this." I remember when I was a child, I was at the flower banquet of the Marquis of Weiyong's mansion, because I heard other girls say that I was the eldest daughter of a widow, so I was not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Zhenguo Mansion, I was wronged and cried back. And refused to let the maids sue my brother, plainly let my brother be angry and worried, when my brother came to see me, he looked at me with this kind of eyes, and I couldn't hide anything in the end, and I confessed. Later, I heard that the girl who yelled the most, her father broke out to have an affair with a widow, which caused damage to her reputation, and the two family affairs I was talking about were yellow, I never asked the eldest brother, was this related to the eldest brother back then? ”

Gu Xianzhen smiled and said, "My sister is tougher than before, and she has become bigger." ”

Gu Qingwan blinked, "When I grow up, I will also be the younger sister of the eldest brother, and the eldest brother will have children in the future, so you must protect me as before and love me, otherwise I will eat the vinegar of the little nephew and little niece in the future." ”

Gu Xianzhen raised his hand again and rubbed Gu Qingwan's hair, and Gu Qingwan said, "Qin Yuhe...... Although he coerced me a lot, he was not bad to me, he was a very attractive man, I shared a bed with him, and we had a child together, if I said that I was not tempted, I did not feel emotional, I said, it is just self-deception. ”

Seeing Gu Xianzhen's expression, Gu Qingwan raised his hand to stop it, and then said: "It's just that because we met at an inappropriate time and an unequal relationship, I can't devote myself to him, and I can't ignore the gains and losses, and let myself be immersed in that kind of selfless love regardless of identity." I'm not a person who can be willing to be humble and give up myself for love. Even love has a bottom line, and the position of the concubine in the palace violated my bottom line. Or maybe I don't like him enough to fall in love. In short, choosing to leave is my insistence. Now that I have left, it is impossible for me to go back, I have already chosen to give up, and it is not my character to hesitate and linger. My eldest brother can take me to Dayan, change the environment, and live a fair and honest life, which is also a good choice. ”

If she could, what woman wouldn't want to have the purest and most beautiful love, but there were too many uncertain factors between her and Qin Yu, and it was too unbearable at the beginning, and she couldn't invest in it at all. Some injuries are not something that can be erased lightly, and some contradictions cannot be eliminated as long as you have the heart.

Gu Xianzhen's eyes were a little hot when he heard this, Gu Qingwan said it lightly, but how could he not understand the hardship and helplessness, struggle and sadness in her words.

His sister is so beautiful, he swore to let her be carefree all her life, get the best care, the most beautiful love, but she endured so much and was forced to grow up.

Gu Xianzhen was very distressed, stood up pityingly, hugged Gu Qingwan in his arms, gently patted her back, and said half-loudly: "Big brother understands, big brother is back, no one will want to bully my Gu Xianzhen sister in the future!" ”

Gu Qingwan didn't know why, when she heard Gu Xianzhen's words, tears suddenly welled up, and she rubbed her cheek against Gu Xianzhen's chest.

After half a ring, the brother and sister sat down again, and Gu Qingwan asked: "Big brother, what happened to the Gu family's destruction overnight, why was the half of the jade seal of the country stored by the Gu family in the pawnshop, and also, that treasure map, does the eldest brother know?" I used the treasure map to reach a cooperation with Su Zili, so that he could take me away, but I may have gone out with him... Share that treasure, does the eldest brother know about it? ”

Gu Xianzhen nodded and said with a smile: "My sister is doing a good job, I have listened to Su Zili." The Gu family's affairs ......"

He was silent, thinking that Gu Qingwan was completely different from when he was ignorant of the world before, so he said: "The box that the Gu family stored in the pawnshop was taken by my grandfather from the hands of the first emperor, a month before the first emperor died. ”

Gu Qing's eyes were stunned for a moment, and he thought about many situations, but he didn't expect that it was handed over to his grandfather by the first emperor himself.

Gu Xianzhen said: "At that time, the first emperor's health was not very good, and he went to Chengyang's other palace to recuperate, and his grandfather was ordered to be the minister of the Qin Mission, and he was far away from Chengyang on an errand in Fengzhou, which was three thousand miles away from Chengyang, but he was suddenly secretly summoned to the other palace to see the driver, and my grandfather had to pretend to be infected with the wind and cold, and secretly Chen Cang, and trekked to the other palace overnight, the first emperor handed over the box to his grandfather, only saying that after he died, after the new emperor ascended the throne, the new emperor would look for him to ask for the box, and at that time the grandfather only needed to present the box. The grandfather received the order, and the first emperor asked the grandfather to escort him back to Fengzhou overnight. Therefore, this matter, except for the first emperor and grandfather, no one once knew about it. ”

Gu Qing's face showed a sudden look at the moment, Su Zili had said earlier that he suspected that the first emperor of Great Qin had obtained the treasure of Emperor Zhou Rui, so that he could be invincible and unify the world and establish Great Qin.

There is half a jade seal in the box, and there is also a treasure map, it seems that Su Zili is really not chasing the wind, and sure enough, the treasure was obtained by the first emperor.

The Gu family is loyal, her grandfather and father are just Wenchen, she should have expected the origin of the box, her grandfather is the brains of the first emperor, in addition to being entrusted by the first emperor, where is there any possibility.

Gu Qingwan couldn't help but be annoyed by her stupidity, and raised her hand to pat her head.

Gu Xianzhen hurriedly took her hand, smiled dotingly, and said, "My sister is already very smart, how can it be good if the shot is broken." ”

Gu Qingwan pouted and said, "The eldest brother just said that the first emperor instructed his grandfather, saying that the new emperor would summon his grandfather to ask for the box after he ascended the throne, but the box was still in his grandfather's hands, so Emperor Qin Ying never asked his grandfather for the box, right?" Big brother, is there something else strange about the death of the first emperor? Emperor Qin Ying was not actually the new emperor designated by the first emperor? ”

Gu Xianzhen was shocked by her sister's acuity and alertness, her eyes showed appreciation, and said, "Yes, Emperor Qin Ying really didn't ask for the box. ”

Gu Qingwan's face suddenly appeared, and said: "It is impossible for the first emperor to forget such an important thing, so it must be that Emperor Qin Ying's throne is strange!" Maybe the death of the first emperor was his usurpation and rebellion! Big brother, this is the reason for the collapse of our Gu family, right? ”

Gu Xianzhen said: "On the day of the death of the first emperor, not only Emperor Qin Ying, but also Prince Lianli, Prince Yi and the two ministers of the court, the first emperor did point to Emperor Qin Ying, the crown prince, passed the throne, and then died, and there was no problem with the book of succession taken out by the former imperial eunuch, and again, when Emperor Qin Ying ascended the throne, the prince of the first emperor died, and the crippled was crippled, except for Emperor Qin Ying, there was actually no other choice, and Emperor Qin Ying was the prince of righteousness, so there was no suspense and controversy about ascending the throne at that time. ”

Gu Qingwan was a little stunned when she heard this, as if she had been hit, her shiny face was a little darker, Gu Xianzhen saw her sister this time, she always felt that her sister had changed a lot, and she was distressed and sad in her heart, but when she saw her like this at this moment, she felt that she was not much different from the sister who loved to cry and laugh in the past.

He touched Gu Qingwan's head comfortingly before he said, "So, have you heard any rumors about Emperor Qin Ying's accession to the throne over the years?" ”

Seeing Gu Qingwan shaking his head, Gu Xianzhen said again: "It is also because of this that my grandfather has always been puzzled. At that time, his grandfather was the concubine of Emperor Qin Ying, and he was in the same boat as Emperor Qin Ying, and it was the first emperor who personally chose his grandfather to be the concubine of Emperor Qin Ying. Emperor Xian handed over the box to his grandfather, which is actually the same as handing it over to Emperor Qin Ying. When the first emperor finally died, it is said that his mind was already a little unconscious, so my grandfather kept wondering if the first emperor really forgot about this in the end. He once had the idea of handing over the box to Emperor Qin Ying, and once even arrived at the gate of the palace in a carriage, but in the end, his heart was always unsteady. ”

Gu Qingwan nodded and said, "The first emperor has the grace of knowing his grandfather, and my grandfather is afraid of living up to the last trust of the first emperor." It seems that my grandfather still has doubts about Emperor Qin's accession to the throne. ”

Gu Xianzhen sighed and said, "In the end, my grandfather still chose to send the box to the pawnshop for sealing. ”

Gu Qingwan twisted her eyebrows, "Big brother, do you know that there is a secret room in Prince Yi's mansion, and there is also half of the heirloom jade seal in it, and there is also a similar treasure map stored in Prince Yi's mansion, that treasure map was stolen by Su Zili, and I also followed Su Zili to dig up the treasure, unfortunately, the treasure is empty, I think it has been transferred a few years ago." ”

Gu Xianzhen really didn't know about this, and when he heard this, he was stunned, Ying Ting's eyebrows frowned, he stood up, took two steps, and fell into deep thought.

Since the Gu family's treasure map and jade seal are from the first emperor, half of the jade seal and treasure map of Prince Yi's mansion are likely to be secretly entrusted by the first emperor before his death.

Prince Yi apparently did not hand over the box to Emperor Qin Ying as his grandfather's choice.

The treasure is empty because the treasure map is fake in the first place? Or did the first emperor divide the treasure into two parts, and Prince Yi later found the treasure, transferred the treasure, and took it for himself?

Gu Xianzhen couldn't think of the strangeness in the middle for a while, and always felt that something was not quite right, as if a very important line was missing, and it was impossible to distinguish between the fog and flowers.

Gu Qingwan was also puzzled, rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Big brother, you haven't said why Emperor Qin Ying would suddenly attack the Gu family?" ”

Gu Xianzhen came back to his senses, his eyes were slightly cold, and he said, "It's the Zhou family, I don't know where I noticed the box." Zhou Dingxing secretly made a statement to Emperor Qin Ying, saying that his grandfather and father had a heart of disobedience, and secretly hid the jade seal of the country, and slandered his grandfather and Prince Li's mansion were deeply involved. ”

He said with a slightly strange expression, and then said after a pause: "Zhou Dingxing also wants Emperor Qin Ying to speak, saying that my father once used your eight characters to secretly let the eight characters of the Guozijian and the eight characters of King Yan Guang marry, and the criticism obtained is a match made in heaven, the dragon and the phoenix are auspicious, and the combination can prosper the world." ”

Gu Qingwan, "......"

T
