His voice was even awe-inspiring, cold and full of mockery, for this world, and for himself who was indulged in the past in a short period of time, unable to extricate himself-

"I'm no longer the Arabic you have in mind, but a cold-blooded and ruthless monster who treats other people's lives as a game."

His figure, standing straight in the darkness, declared word by word—

"See you again, Rujun."

*****

The third watch finally arrived, and the dignitaries upstairs were still listening to the play energetically, and the singing voice of the popular celebrity Boss Qin made them praise frequently, but only they knew that this was just a play being performed.

Xia Yuanji, the head of the household, stared at Qin Yao, nodding his head frequently, and ordered him to have no distractions. However, Liu Guan, the imperial history of the left capital, pulled Shen Yuan and poured the wine hard, and then the two seemed to talk about something funny, and laughed together.

Qin Yao, who was singing in the hall, had a bright heart: they must be discussing some secret matter in the court, but they covered it up and deliberately made a note to invite him to Yuexianglou to come to the church.

These are cunning foxes - the least easy to eavesdrop on the noisy drums, and they are also elegant to say, much better than going to the unbearable place of the Red Pavilion of the Green House.

After he finished a performance, a Qingke Xianggong came forward to give a reward, and the silver was second, Xia Yuanji also called him to praise him a few words, saying that he would recommend him to Yang Xianggong.

can climb the door of the first assistant of the cabinet, and Qin Yao's position in the pear orchard line is unshaken.

Qin Yao thanked him in surprise, then hurriedly returned to the backstage to remove his makeup, and returned to the second floor in a silver and sapphire patterned casual dress.

In the originally dark secret room, a candle had already been lit, and the faint light illuminated everyone's expressions.

The atmosphere in the room was silent, as if a strange condensation was spreading in it.

Qin Yao saw at a glance that the originally broken gauze tent had been replaced, and the 'eldest brother' was still sitting on the low couch.

And Xiao Gu sat on the farthest seat. His face turned pale and he didn't say a word.

"What's the matter, why don't you speak!"

Gong Yuchun keenly felt the strange atmosphere in the room, and stood up with a slap on the table.

107

At that time, the room was silent, and even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly, and Gong Yuchun's punch was not small, and the bang made everyone raise their heads.

"Third sister!"

Qin Yao frowned, stepped forward and whispered: "Those people upstairs haven't dispersed yet, be careful of the sound!" ”

Although Gong Yuchun has a hot temper, he also knows the stakes of the road, and he makes such a loud noise in his irritability. She was also startled, she swept a handful of crow-winged sideburns, and lowered her voice unwillingly, "Today is a regular meeting, if there is something, just talk about it, just break up if you don't have anything to do, what do you do to put on such a dead look, as if someone owes you 100,000 taels of silver!" ”

was so troubled by her. The atmosphere in the room was somewhat relaxed, and Qin Yao looked behind the gauze tent without a trace. glanced at Xiao Gu again, only to see her eyes lowered, and the whole person was sitting in a daze, empty and desolate.

These two people are really wronged...... Qin Yao sighed silently. Just now there was a commotion here, and he hurried over, but he was bumping into the two of them confronting, exposing, and entangled with each other. Although I can't know everything, I understand most of it.

At this time, the two of them must have been suffering and chaotic in their hearts......

Come to think of this. He simply stood up and stood in the center, first bowed to the gauze tent, and then looked around at the brothers and sisters who were sitting in the court, nodded with a smile: "Big brother, this secret meeting is to discuss a few important things-"

"The first thing is that the twelfth sister has returned from Beiqiuwei, and she has successfully rescued those female dependents who were enslaved by the army."

This sentence was like thunder outside the sky, and like a spoonful of boiling oil poured into a hot pot, and everyone was in an uproar.

Especially the second sister, after hearing the news, she was so surprised that she almost fainted again, Gong Yuchun hurriedly took out the musk essential oil and rubbed it on her temples, and urged to ask, "Have you rescued them all?" And what about people now? ”

In front of everyone's eyes, Xiao Gu stood up, her figure was thin and slender, the whole person was unusually silent, with a wide robe and big sleeves, she was simply weak, almost blown away by the wind.

She lowered her head and didn't look at anyone, but said in a low voice: "All twenty-eight female dependents have been placed in a safe place by me. ”

Her voice was slightly hoarse, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were slightly red and swollen, which was the trace of tears just now—but no one paid attention to these at this time, and the scene immediately began to discuss.

The second sister opened her mouth to ask, but saw that Xiao Gu was silent, and felt that it was inappropriate, so she hurriedly stopped, but she was so anxious that the nails on her hands almost pinched into the flesh.

Gong Yuchun saw that she was so worried about her daughter, thinking of her life experience, her heart was like a pinprick, but because she missed her motherly heart, she asked Xiao Gu regardless of it, "What about that person, why don't you bring people here, the second sister is looking forward to her daughter going crazy!" ”

Qin Yao saw that the two of them were about to quarrel again, and were about to play a round, but after listening to the yarn tent, the eldest brother suddenly spoke-

"People have now entered the city of Nanjing?"

Qin Yao saw the 'big brother' speak out, but he secretly admired him in his heart for being calm and composed, as if he was hard-hearted - the scene just now reunited after parting, and the two seemed to have completely fallen out, and any man in the world, even if he didn't have a broken heart, he would be distracted and have no intention of discussing things, but this man called Jingyu came to his senses so quickly and returned to normal.

Hearing his question, a light flashed in Xiao Gu's eyes, and then she became more vigilant in her heart, and at this moment, his words rang in her ears again: I am no longer the Arabic language you have in mind, but have become a cold-blooded and ruthless monster who treats other people's lives as a game!

Arabic ...... What is he trying to achieve?

Although she was suspicious in her heart, she pondered the words and replied prudently: "You need a road guide to send it to other places, and the longer the checkpoint, the easier it is to have an accident, and Nanjing City is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and it is safe to borrow the carriage and horse of my young master." ”

After all, she couldn't bear the tears in her second sister's eyes, and added, "I'll find a way to let you meet tomorrow." ”

"It's a joy that people have been rescued."

Jing Yu's voice was calm and indifferent, as if nothing had happened. "But then, what do you think should be done with these women?"

"Let's all settle in the countryside, where you can dig in the soil and eat, and you won't starve to death if you have a few more mouths."

The fifth child muttered in a low voice beside him. He has always been a scholar's winter sourness, although he was taught a lesson by Xiao Gu last time, and he no longer dared to publicly say that these women were "out of moderation" and "greedy for life and afraid of death", but he really didn't have a good reputation.

Gong Yuchun glared at him fiercely and sneered: "You scholars don't do farming, do you think the countryside is Tao Yuanming's peach blossom source?" It's all local there, and the eight generations of ancestors are familiar with each other, so what's the matter with an extra group of women? ”

"What if you leave people in this Nanjing City, what if they are found by Ying Tianfu? Fifty percent of the soldiers and horses also like to inspect those wandering women, and spend two dollars ......"

Xiao Shi, who was often blackmailed, spoke timidly. He is not very old, but he is the head of the South Wind Pavilion, and he is really worried about these officials who are blackmailing at every turn.

"Brother Ten is right, I want to keep people in this Jinling City, I want to try to find a livelihood for them."

Xiao Gu raised his head and looked at the dense black silk tent, his eyes did not blink, as if he wanted to see the expression and even the heart of the person inside through the covering.

I can't see that end, though. But still, the other party stared at her too!

At this moment, she felt herself holding her breath-

"Does Big Brother have any opinions?"

She heard herself ask.

"The twelve sisters are unparalleled in their wisdom and scheming, and they rescued these female dependents safely - the so-called saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. Since we have saved people, we cannot ignore them. ”

The eldest brother's words sounded magnificent, but they were unsettling under the scrutiny, "But." Have you ever thought about it, these ladies have been in the barracks for many years, but I'm afraid that they are used to being born Zhang Shuwei. Send to usher. ”

"Big brother, what do you mean by that!"

Gong Yuchun seemed to have been scarred, and shouted in shock and anger.

"Third sister, don't be impatient, I don't mean anything else, just talk about things - Twelfth sister, you have been in contact with them, can you pack tickets, all of them have the same heart as us, and they don't mean to surrender to the government?"

Everyone's eyes focused on Xiao Gu, only to see her eyes flashing, hesitated for a moment, and finally told the truth, "No." ”

As if feeling everyone's surprise, she whispered: "Many people have been destroyed, narrow-minded and selfish, lazy and hardworking, and if they can't do it, they will report others in order to protect themselves." ”

This is actually the reason why she hid people first and didn't let Jin Lanhui interfere here.

The world is hot and cold, people's hearts are unpredictable and tormented for a long time, and some people can betray their companions without hesitation in order to have enough to eat, in order to be pardoned - such things are not uncommon in history, and even this dynasty has produced several cases.

"Do you think that if our Jinlan Club insists on managing it to the end, is there any risk?"

Facing Jingyu's questioning, Xiao Gu clenched his hands into fists, but still told the truth, "Yes, and it's big." ”

"In this case, it is not worth it to leave people in Jinling."

Jing Yu said lightly: "I heard that some people often travel to and from Fujian and Zhejiang, let them get on the boat, return to their respective hometowns, and go into hiding." ”

He seemed to glance at the second sister, "Second sister, there are many people in your hometown, so give the child to others as an adopted daughter." ”

The second sister whimpered and burst into tears, her heart was like a knife, but she still didn't give up, "I took her with me, and I just regarded her as a little maid I bought?" ”

"Second sister, you have to stay calm and restrain your mood - any suspicious actions are not allowed. Do you think it's worth it to put everyone in for them? ”

These words were direct and heart-wrenching, and the second sister was about to kneel down as soon as her knees were weak, but she was pulled by Qin Yao and shook her head at her. In the silence, I only heard Jingyu and Xiao Gu ask and answer.

Xiao Gu took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, simply raised his head to look at the gauze tent, and took the initiative to attack-

"Our Jinlan Club was established in order to rescue more victims, in order to repay the blood debt from the imperial court, all brothers and sisters are consciously responsible for their responsibilities, especially you, eldest brother, the lives of more than 20 women are not comparable to the so-called great cause in your minds."
