Chapter Eighty-Six: Alienation
Qu Miaoling's face changed suddenly, "Father, in your eyes, am I an outsider?" ”
Wu Dehou was stunned by the questioning, and he was also a little embarrassed.
Qu Miaoling is her own daughter, but she is the daughter who has been separated from her for nearly 13 years.
But Qu Chensi has really been with him for 12 years!
"Father, are you really so ruthless?"
Qu Miaoling continued to ask, and Wu Dehou was even more embarrassed.
"Miao Ling, it's not like this, you think too much, your father will always be your father."
"But dad doesn't become daddy, does he?"
Why does she keep calling him father?
Isn't it because Qu Miaoling found out that Wu Dehou will never be the same to himself as he is to Qu Chensi?
He could beat and scold Qu Chensi at will, and even punished him to kneel in the ancestral hall.
But when it was her turn, Qu Fu would always face herself with a smiling and loving face, how many times, Qu Miaoling wanted to directly tear through his hypocritical face.
But every time, she silently pressed it down.
"Father, do you think of me as your daughter? Even if it's a day? ”
After Qu Miaoling finished speaking, she left directly.
Wu Dehou stretched out his hand, but only caught the phantom.
The daughter's indifferent and injured back lingered in front of Wu Dehou's eyes, and he finally shouted, "Miao Ling, you will always be my daughter, this will never change, and your father will always protect you!" ”
The nice words are not very convincing, and I don't know if I am lying to Qu Miaoling or myself.
Leaving the front yard, Qu Miaoling touched her red eyes, when she confronted Wu Dehou just now, she almost cried uselessly, but fortunately she held back.
"Miss, are you alright?" Softly worried.
"It's okay, what can I do!"
"Miss, if you want to cry, just cry."
After living in Huangzhuang for so many years, Qingrou knows Qu Miaoling the best.
Although Mrs. An and a few young masters often go to visit the young lady, in the huge Zhuangzi, except for the servants who are the young lady, the young lady of her family is so pitiful, except for her, there is not even anyone to talk to.
Wu Dehou was even more ruthless, he didn't even go to see Miss, even once? The emperor has passed the young lady into the palace several times to accompany him.
Could it be that the bloodline of the biological is not comparable to that of outsiders?
Gentle was very surprised, and she also felt worthless for her own young lady.
"Miss, don't be sad, no matter what happens in the future, Gentle will always be with you."
Qu Miaoling listened to it and burst into laughter.
"Forever? Gentle, the word never can be said casually, your young lady I will take it seriously. ”
"Seriously, miss, even if you go to hell, Gentle will accompany you."
Qu Miaoling smiled at this time.
In her previous life, she didn't accompany herself to the end, and she was killed by Wen Qingqian, this time, she must save her life and let her accompany her to watch the traitor ambush.
Qu Miaoling's eyes became firm, and she said softly: "Go and tell Knowles that it's time to add fire, take advantage of Wen's illness and take her life!" ”
"Yes." Qingrou was just about to turn around, when she heard the young lady say again.
"Send a message to the Marquis of Jingkang, saying that I have something important to find Imperial Doctor Li, and ask them to help me make an appointment."
"Yes."
In the afternoon of the same day, Qu Miaoling went to Jingkang Hou's Mansion.
Imperial Physician Li was waiting in the courtyard, and when he saw Qu Miaoling coming, he clasped his hands together and arched his hands: "I've seen the county lord." ”
"Imperial Doctor Li, I don't know if the jade pot is good now?"
"I'm tired of the county lord, everything is fine with the jade pot, she is studying medicine quickly, I'm afraid I'm going to catch up with Weichen."
"Imperial Physician Li is modest, the jade pot is young after all."
Imperial Physician Li arched his hand again.
"I wonder if Imperial Physician Li can cut his love and let the jade pot enter the Wude Mansion?" After a short greeting, Qu Miaoling didn't want to delay any longer, so she went straight to the point.
"The lord of the county means ......"
"I need her."
"Since he is the main person of the county, Weichen should do his best, but the little girl has just learned medicine, I'm afraid it is-"
"Don't worry about Imperial Physician Li, since the jade pot is my person, I will definitely not let her be bullied, this is something that Imperial Physician Li can rest assured."
Imperial Physician Li was still a little hesitant, his daughter had just returned home, and he hadn't spoiled enough to make up for it, and if he let her leave, he felt very uncomfortable, but when he thought of Qu Miaoling's life-saving grace to his daughter, Li Jun gritted his teeth and agreed.
Li Jun came to this trip, he couldn't come in vain, he carried the medicine box to see Min Tian, and then returned to the house to talk to his daughter about it.
In order not to arouse suspicion, but also to protect the jade pot, Qu Miaoling and Imperial Physician Li decided to send a few women who knew medical skills into the mansion with the jade pot, so as to confuse the Wen people.
And coming out of the Jingkang Hou Mansion, Qu Miaoling was not idle, she went to Xiangmanlou, packed her grandmother's favorite jasper cake, and then slowly walked to the Hou Mansion.
Halfway through, Qu Miaoling's body ached, and a child dressed as a little beggar bumped into her.
"My purse."
Qu Miaoling shouted, and the guards behind her reacted quickly and immediately chased after her.
The child was caught, and when she saw that the child was dressed in tatters and her eyes showed fear, she let him go.
"In the future, don't steal again, you know?"
The kid nodded slowly, took the silver or two that Qu Miaoling took from the palm of his hand, spread his legs and ran away.
"Miss, your purse."
Originally, Qu Miaoling didn't want to open it to see it, but inexplicably, she still opened it.
It turned out that there was not only silver in it, but also a small note.
"See you at the old place tomorrow at noon."
This handwriting, how can she look like Situ Huai's decision.
After Qu Miaoling read it, she burned the note and destroyed it, she sat in the carriage, thinking to herself.
This Situ Huaizhu suddenly found himself, and he used such a secret way, what he wanted to say must be extremely not simple.
On the second day of the poem, Qu Miaoling dressed up in disguise and appeared in the teahouse wearing a maid's clothes.
Today she went out with a maid with a similar figure to her, just to hide people's eyes.
After the carriage had gone some distance, she excused herself to eat under the pretext that she was hungry, so she asked the carriage to stop at Xiangmanlou, and she asked the girl who looked like her to change into her clothes, and she secretly went straight to the teahouse from the back door of Xiangmanlou.
Along the way, she didn't notice that there was someone following her, so she went to the teahouse.
Under the instructions of the shopkeeper, Qu Miaoling went straight to the private room on the second floor, and coincidentally, it was still the Tianzi No. 1 private room that the two of them sat in last time.
"Miss Qu."
Seeing Qu Miaoling dressed as a pink maid, Situ Huai was a little surprised.
She was not embarrassed, and said straightforwardly: "In order to hide people's eyes, I have to dress like this, His Royal Highness the King of the Commandery, if you have something, just say it!" ”
Seeing Qu Miaoling's face, "I am pressed for time, you hurry up", he opened his mouth and said: "The matter of the long nail has eyebrows." ”
Last time, under Qu Miaoling's investigation, the two found a long nail pierced in the back of the horse, the process of making the long nail was extremely ingenious, and the mastermind behind the scenes also deliberately customized it in order to make the long nail smoothly pierced into the horse's back with rough skin and thick flesh.
The tip of the nail was extremely sharp, and in the Daling Dynasty, there were only five fingers with this kind of craftsmanship.
Situ Huai decided to let his subordinates follow the vine and touch the melons, and secretly questioned the shopkeepers of those shops, so that they did not dare to expose the things they investigated, and then wrote their confessions.
According to them, they did come to them to make such nails, but their craftsmanship was too crude to make them, and one of them recommended a blacksmith to the man.
The man was eight feet tall, unusually burly, and the muscles he had cultivated over the years were strong and powerful, and he looked extremely fierce.
Only this person can make the spikes that that person needs.
Situ Huaizhu traveled many times to find the blacksmith, but he said that at that time, the man was hanging his head and his face was covered with a black cloth, and he was not a good match at first glance, but he agreed in a hurry to make money.
Speaking of this, the burly man began to cry, shouting that he knew he was wrong, don't kill him.
The guard couldn't laugh and cry, and handed the blacksmith's confession to Situ Huai.
On his confession, it was clearly written that the man who came to order the spikes at that time, although his face was not real, but faintly, at the position of the man's neck, he saw a string of patterns, black, like a snake.
"Snakes?"
Situ Huai nodded.
Qu Miaoling suddenly fell into memory.
In her previous life, when she and Situ Huaibo were mixing oil, the other party also told her the secret of the royal family. Among them is this one.
The royal family actually has its own shadow guards behind the scenes, they come and go without a trace, doing assassination work, but they don't miss a trace, which is very powerful.
And for the prince who has great merit, the emperor will also reward it as a reward valued by the king.
As far as Qu Miaoling knows, only the eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince had this kind of shadow guard in their previous life.
That is, Situ Huaiqi, Situ Huaibo and Situ Huaibo in front of him.
But in this life, she doesn't know who the emperor has rewarded the shadow guards to.
Qu Miaoling retracted his thoughts, and saw Situ Huai decidedly and said straight to the point: "Originally, I shouldn't have told you the results of the investigation of this matter, but since you are also a victim and helped me find out the key points of the case, I can tell you that Min Tian's injury is related to the royal family." ”
"Which prince is it?"
Although Situ Huaizhu was surprised by Qu Miaoling's intelligence, he still nodded and said, "That's right, but how do you know?" ”
"It's very simple, you also said that this matter is related to the royal family, and the imperial uncle naturally won't, so only the princes will be left!"
"Except for you."
Qu Miaoling added.
"How do you know it's not me?"
"Unless you can be separated, and besides, if it wasn't for my second cousin who blocked the catastrophe for you that day, it would be you who can't get up from the bed now, killing yourself, I have never seen such a strange way of killing."
Qu Miaoling had sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and Situ Huai laughed when he heard it.
"Miss Qu's eloquence and brain are very flexible, it's a pity not to be a catcher!"
"I think so, what a loss it is for the Daling Dynasty to lose such a god as me!" Qu Miaoling climbed up the pole, and the originally tense atmosphere was instantly relieved, and Dao became happy.
"For this villain, does the king of the county have a clue?"
Situ Huai shook his head, "This kind of logo is on every royal guard, and it is very difficult to check. ”
"Can't narrow the scope of the investigation?"
Situ Huaizhu continued to shake his head, "As far as I know, every prince's mansion has this kind of secret guard. ”
Qu Miaoling was shocked, it seemed that with her rebirth, some things had changed.
However, she immediately clenched her fists, no matter how the world changed, she would not let go of those who hurt her!
