Volume 1: Seven Emotions Seven Feelings 2: Qiankun Baoding [嫡庶 (II)]

"The real Duan Qi's mother died when she gave birth to him, and your mother swapped your identities, poor Duan Qi, who has been kept in the dark. When he was young, he took care of you in every way, and maybe he thought you didn't have a mother in it - but he didn't know that his mother was actually your mother in his mouth every day. Haitang raised his eyebrows, he knew that Duan Qi in front of him was already at the end of the crossbow.

"My son-in-law can inherit the family business, I think your mother changed your identity with this idea, but you didn't expect that Duan Qi was diligent and studious since he was a child, and now he has become the city lord, after he becomes the city lord, it is naturally a thorn in your side, after all, in a sense, the Duan family is also under the jurisdiction of the city lord."

"Empty words!" Fine beads of sweat were already oozing from the fat man's face, "According to you, only me and my mother know about this matter, but my mother has been dead for several years, how did you learn about this news?!" ”

"Naturally, it is impossible for a dead person to open his mouth to tell us any news, it is good that you and your mother have a good plan, but there will be a mistake in Baimi - think about it, your identities were swapped on the night of your birth, your mother just gave birth to you, do you think she still has the opportunity and strength to do these things at that time?" Xiao Yue showed a big smile and said to the bloodless man in front of her.

"You mean?!"

"That's right, at least one other person knows at this time, besides the two of you, and this person is the one who swapped your two newborn babies that night," Begonia affirmed.

"Nonsense," the fat man gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, "if things are really like what you say, why don't I know anything about this person, why didn't my mother tell me that there is such a person?" ”

"Because your mother doesn't feel the need to tell you," Haitang said, "This person must be a person who is deeply trusted by your mother, why does she have to tell you?" ”

The fat man was speechless for a while, Haitang saw this, and said something to Liang Zhi beside him, Liang Zhi nodded and was about to turn around, but was stopped by Xiao Yue, and after whispering a few words to him, Liang Zhi walked out of the room quickly with a strange smile,

"I've asked Liang Zhi to bring that person, I think with this person as a witness, you shouldn't be able to deny it."

After Haitang said this, he stopped speaking, Li Cheng and Ruan Whale Luo on the side were in shock, they couldn't speak for a while, Xiao Yue had a playful smile on his face, and the fat man was also staring at Qiankun Ding with his head down at the moment without words. A moment later, Liang Zhi took the lead in walking in, followed by Zhou Ziheng and Chen Wen, as well as a group of people from the Duan family.

"I let them come over and find out the truth of the matter by the way, don't you mind?" Xiao Yue said this, the fat man seemed to have regained his composure at the moment, he didn't say anything, just raised his head and quietly looked at these people who walked in—there were his elders, and there were also his other brothers except the city lord, their eyes were full of shock at the moment, and there was a hint of anger in the shock.

"Well, here comes the evidence you want—"

Begonia said.

A day ago, somewhere in Duanfu.

According to the news that Yaobai Liang Zhi and others found in the City Lord's Mansion, the city lord may have been poisoned by the Duan family master, so Haitang let Yao Bai and others continue to investigate the news in the City Lord's Mansion At the same time, Chen Wen and Zhou Ziheng also came to Duan Mansion to find clues, and their task was to find all the evidence that could prove that Duan Qi had attacked Duan De.

"Chen Wen, can you open this lock?"

This is Duan Qi's uncle's bedroom, through their half-day observation, they found that this person should have a very high status in the Duan Mansion, but this person always glanced at a corner of the room from time to time when he stayed in the bedroom, so they sneaked into his bedroom when he went out, and found such a locked box from the dark compartment in that corner.

"I'll take a look," Chen Wen took the box from Zhou Ziheng's hand, the box was only about a little bigger than a palm, it was wooden, but there was a big copper lock pinned to the opening and closing of the box, "No problem, give me a little time." ”

Zhou Ziheng nodded: "I'll take a look at other places." ”

A moment later, with a soft click, the lock was unlocked. Chen Wen called back Zhou Ziheng, who was looking for clues elsewhere in the room, and the two opened the box, and lying inside the box was a stack of yellowed and rolled notes.

Brother Zhongzheng:

I believe you opened this letter at the same time as I said when I gave it to you, on the day I gave birth to my child.

I'm sure you will understand my thoughts, I was born poor, but I was favored by Duan Zhongxin with a face, although he treated me well, but I am just his concubine, and the child I am about to be born can only carry the brand of "concubine" for the rest of my life.

Brother Zhongzheng, I know that you love me deeply, compared to Duan Zhongxin, you know that I also love you, for the future of my children - for our future - for me, the time when I have a child with Duan Zhongxin Zhengfang is definitely not far apart, and when the time comes, after both of our children are born, I want you to find an opportunity to swap their identities before they have their own memories, before others can clearly distinguish between them.

I know it's difficult, even a little impractical, but ......

Brother Zhongzheng, the two of us are together, I have never asked you for anything, just this once, okay? I beg you......

After reading the first note, Chen Wen and Zhou Ziheng glanced at each other, they were all a little shocked, they originally just wanted to find evidence that Duan Qi had poisoned Duan De, but they never thought that they would see such a news here that was enough to subvert the entire Duan Mansion.

The two of them thought for a moment, and decided to lock the wooden box and put it back, and they continued to hide and observe this section.

"Who are you?!" Suddenly, a loud shout sounded from behind them, and the two of them were startled: both of them secretly screamed badly, and they were shocked by the news in front of them - and then ignored the surrounding movements.

Zhou Ziheng drew the thin sword at his waist as he turned around, and Chen Wen waved his hand, and a cloud of dust immediately sprinkled on the face of the person behind him.

The man covered his eyes and coughed violently, and Zhou Ziheng took advantage of the situation to put the thin sword on the man's neck.

"You, who are you?" The man did not dare to move.

"Is the current Duan Qi's real identity Duan De?" Zhou Ziheng asked.

"Ahem, you guys...... What are you talking about? Duan Zhong was coughing, saying intermittently.

"Don't be slippery," Chen Wen said on the side, "We've seen the letters in your box." ”

"You guys, sent by the head of the house?"

Zhou Ziheng pressed the thin sword in again, the blade of the thin sword had already touched Duan Zhongzheng's skin, and he asked in a low voice: "We are not the head of the family, what is your relationship with the current head of the family?" Not beat around the bush! ”

"I, this ...... The head of the house is the head of the house, I am a retainer, that's all! Duan Zhongzheng's body was already trembling.

"Why do you always look in the direction of your box when you're in the room?" Chen Wen also asked on the side.

"I," Duan Zhongzheng swallowed cautiously, "I said whatever you asked, can you take the sword away first?" ”

Zhou Ziheng pursed his lips slightly, glanced at Chen Wen again, nodded, and removed the thin sword from Duan Zhongzheng's neck: Now you can speak.

"The current head of the family, the real identity is indeed Duan De, and I was entrusted by his mother to switch the identities of the two on the night they were born...... However, over the years, Duan De has become more and more greedy, and the Duan family's financial resources have gradually shrunk, and there are more and more people in the entire Duan family who are dissatisfied with his approach, but no one dares to resist him. And although Duan Qi is the city lord, he can't interfere in the affairs of Duan Mansion, I think he can only try to be kind to the people of Panyu to offset his uneasiness...... Until more than half a year ago, Duan Qi suddenly moved into the City Lord's Mansion to live, and then Duan De had to go to the City Lord's Mansion almost every day, and Duan Qi's temperament also changed dramatically after that, in fact, people with a discerning eye have seen the strangeness of this matter, but no one dares to say it. ”

Duan Zhongzheng cautiously looked at Zhou Ziheng and Chen Wen, and saw that the two looked the same, and continued: "Actually, I've been thinking about whether to expose Duan De's true identity recently, that box contains a letter from his mother to me, although after the letter is exposed, my relationship with his mother will also be exposed, but I think these letters are enough to prove that the current Duan family head is actually the concubine, so maybe the family will use this as an excuse to forcibly elect a new family leader." ”

Zhou Ziheng raised his eyebrows: "Maybe there is a good opportunity for you to expose these letters." ”

Seeing that the yellowed letter paper that Duan Zhong was taking out of the box was spread all over the table, the fat man finally couldn't help it: "This is impossible, this is impossible!" ”

Xiao Yue snorted coldly: "Duan De, don't you admit it until now?" ”

"I ......" Duan De looked at the letter in front of him, every letter was the handwriting left by his mother, and he finally had to admit that he had failed.

I thought that this secret would follow him into the grave, I thought that Duan Qi was his only threat and he had already killed Duan Qi, I thought that Qiankun Ding had also been recovered, and everything was under control - but who knows, everything is an illusion.

He failed, his Qiankun Ding was his illusion, he killed Duan Qi, but at this moment he revealed his identity - most importantly, his evil deeds were exposed in front of the two Qiang generals.

"Liang Zhi, you can handle the rest of the matter, I'll go back to the inn first." Haitang said to Liang Zhi, who nodded when he heard this.

Haitang left with Xiaoyue, Ruan Jingluo was still sluggish at the moment, she subconsciously followed, and Yao Bai also said hello to Liang Zhi and the others and followed Haitang and the others out of the Duan Mansion.

"I'm afraid that this Panyu is going to change the sky," Yao Bai sighed, "It's a broken tripod, and so many things have been pulled out—"

Before he finished his words, a loud cry sounded on the side - Ruan Whale Luo finally reacted at this moment, she had learned too much news in a short period of time, and there was only one thought in her mind at this moment: her father was dead.

Seeing this, Xiao Yue hurriedly walked over and hugged Ruan Whale Luo, who was crying.

———— Dividing Line————

Originally, I wanted to write 5,000 words of chapters to make up for yesterday's word count, but after thinking about it, it would be more than 1,000 words, so it would be better to write two chapters directly. At this moment, I'm working hard to code words, even if I write until 12 o'clock, I have to write another chapter and send it up!
