Chapter Seventy-Six: The Identity of the Mysterious Man
Jade Bracelet heard Gu Qingchu say something to her, and went back to the house and waited.
Her young lady has always been measured, and without much hesitation, Jade Bracelet instructed the coachman to continue walking.
The man's footsteps were extremely fast, and it once again drilled into a pitch-black alley, this time Gu Qingchu stared at the other party's figure and did not let it slip away again.
Finally, he came to a dead end, and the man stood still in front of the wall.
With her back to Gu Qingchu's back, she looked very familiar, similar to her brother's figure in her memory.
Gu Qingchu pulled out the soft sword from her waist and aimed it at the man in front of her, she would not be deceived by appearances, the other party was definitely not her brother.
"Who are you?" Gu Qingchu's face turned cold, and he asked coldly.
The man turned around slowly, Gu Qingchu's eyes widened, he originally thought that the two were just similar, but the fact was that the other party and her brother looked exactly the same!
This is also the biggest suspicion, thirty years have passed, she is still young because of her red face, but her brother should not still be the same as when he was young.
"This girl, I don't have much money, please let me go, I don't have a family, no one will redeem me if you kidnap me." The man stepped back, waving his hands and staring at the sword in Gu Qingchu's hand, his face showing fear.
"Don't move." Gu Qingchu approached, picked open the man's collar with a soft sword, and carefully observed all parts of his ears, collarbones, and shoulders, looking for traces of disguise.
It's just that this action looks a little misleading.
The man pursed his mouth, and said with shame on his face: "Girl, the little heart belongs, please don't ......"
Gu Qingchu was stunned when he heard this, and then he was cold, and the other party was so strange that he was acting and talking against his brother's face.
There was no trace of the disguise cream on the man's body, Gu Qingchu put away the soft sword and stunted the person directly with a hand knife, she didn't want to see her brother's face make such an expression again.
Pinching the man's facial features with his hands, no matter how advanced the disguise technique is, there is nothing to hide after Gu Qingchu's examination.
Is there such a coincidence in the world?
No, there will be no two identical leaves in the world, and there will be no strangers who look exactly the same.
Gu Qingchu's eyes sank, he took out the medicine bottle from his arms, put it under the man's snort and let him sniff it, and in a few breaths, the man woke up leisurely.
What caught the eye was the soft sword that crossed the neck.
"Life, place of origin, family situation, age, not to mention death." Gu Qingchu's questioning without a trace of emotion made a layer of sweat break out on the tip of the man's nose.
"I, my name is Wang Dafeng, my hometown is Huainan, I am the only one in the family, I am twenty-eight ...... this year," the man said tremblingly about his situation.
Gu Qingchu's thoughts were slightly confused, her brother was twenty-eight years old when he died, this person's hometown was Huainan, and his brother died in Huainan back then.
The more I listened, the more I felt that something was wrong, as if this person had a lot of connections with his brother in the dark, and clearing the fog was a reality that the two could not have a relationship.
Wang Dafeng said that his hometown is in Huainan, and last year because his hometown was flooded, he begged all the way to Shengjing, and worked hard every day at Nanyang Wharf to make a living.
This person only knew that his hometown was Huainan, and when he woke up, his childhood memory was gone, and he heard others say that he was the son of the Wang family.
After talking about his own situation, the man hugged his head and didn't dare to look at Gu Qingchu.
"Where did the jade pendant come from?"
"I don't know, I'll wake up."
Before the curfew, Gu Qingchu took Wang Dafeng back to King Jing's Mansion and arranged for him to live in a side compartment in his courtyard.
The jade bracelet waited at the gate of the courtyard from the time he returned home, worried that something had happened to Gu Qingchu, seeing that his young lady came back, there was a black shadow behind him, and the sky was dark and the jade bracelet could not be seen clearly.
After the two of them approached, the jade bracelet grew its mouth and said tremblingly: "Uncle Gu, you ...... you"
"Jade bracelet, no." Gu Qingchu interrupted what the jade bracelet was about to say next.
Receiving Gu Qingchu's eyes, the jade bracelet calmed himself down, even so, his eyes couldn't stop looking at Wang Dafeng.
Wang Dafeng was a little at a loss, although he was illiterate, but he remembered the road, this is the prince's mansion that his co-worker said, and he must not be able to provoke this person's identity.
Almost instantly, he stopped thinking of running away.
"You live here."
Wang Dafeng listened to Gu Qingchu's words, entered the house, and when he turned around, he heard the sound of locking the door outside, and his face was sad, worried about his situation.
Yuan Jinpei heard that Gu Qingchu had brought back a strong man, and before he could ask carefully, Gu Qingchu came to the door.
"Lord Yuan, I came to ask for something." Gu Qingchu directly explained his intentions.
Yuan Jinpei didn't agree, and said, "What's the matter?" Miss Gu, please speak. ”
Then Gu Qingchu talked about today's events.
"On the day you and I rode in the same sedan chair, I left suddenly, because I saw someone who was very similar to my brother, so I chased after him, but I lost the person. Today I met again and brought the person back to the house, he has a lot of suspicions, and Lord Sheng Jingyuan is more familiar with him, so I cheekily asked Lord Yuan to help investigate the news of this person. ”
Like the deceased General Gu?
Yuan Jinpei raised his eyebrows and was a little interested, and said, "Okay, I'll let someone investigate." ”
Gu Qingchu thanked him, and Yuan Jinpei mentioned one more thing: "I received a message before I went home, Liu Ziye is dead." ”
"What?"
Liu Ziye is dead?
There are turbulent dark waves in Shengjing, there are too many people behind the scenes who want to control the whole chessboard, and many people have an idea, that is, Shengjing is in chaos, and the more chaotic the better.
Liu Ziye's death may be one of them.
"The scar on Liu Ziye's neck was cut to death by a soft sword, and the fabric he was pulling between his hands was the same as your white shirt today. Dali Temple suspects that you are committing the crime, but because of the competition tomorrow, followed by the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet, after avoiding these two days, they will mention the matter in the early court. ”
After Yuan Jinpei heard the news of Liu Ziye's death, he had already asked the people of Tianwei Division to start investigating the incident.
Yuan Jinpei believes that people are not killed by Gu Qingchu.
Gu Qingchu knew that she would not be able to live in peace after returning to Shengjing, and now she had faintly felt that the hand in the shadows was calculating herself.
Thinking like this, Gu Qingchu was a little excited, let's do it, so that she can pull it out from the roots.
Sometimes, some points of Gu Qingchu and Yuan Jinpei are extremely similar.
For example, the more challenges make them feel different, the more they look forward to them.
Yuan Jinpei did not tell Gu Qingchu that he had sent someone to investigate, and Gu Qingchu's reaction was unexpected and somewhat reasonable.
Ning Lianghou didn't know how to write the words at all.
So is he, Yuan Jinpei bent his eyebrows.
Immediately, Yuan Jinpei turned his head and talked about tomorrow's fighting talent.
Gu Qingchu wanted to leave, but when he heard Yuan Jinpei talk about the Doucai competition, he sat down again, and the two of them talked late.
Even on the second day, the day of the fight, the two of them stepped on the arena that they entered, and the rest of the adults secretly thought that these two people were playing prestige, and they deliberately came late, but they didn't know that they were simply getting up late.
Sitting on the high platform of the venue, Gu Qingchu glanced around at the lively people, and there would be assassins hidden in the crowd.
The truth of what King Lian said can be confirmed today.
