Mrs. Gao pointed at Li Qi and complained bitterly: "Pity my family, all because of this brute, my mother hanged herself when she gave birth, but I survived." Li Qi adopted me, thinking that I didn't know about it, but I didn't know that my old servant of the Qi family had already found me and told me the truth! And I was still naïve at the time, thinking that he was guilty of accepting me as a righteous daughter...... Considers...... Unexpectedly, twenty years ago, he moved to Runzhou, Gao Xinbo fell into the water and drowned, he was worried that he would break off his relationship with Ziqing from then on, so he forcibly married me back and asked me to pretend to be Gao Xinbo! ”

When Mrs. Gao said this, she cried with grief and indignation: "At that time, I was forced by him, and I could only agree to be pregnant, but I gave birth to a stillborn baby because of depression!" He was afraid that I would reveal my identity, so he put to death a noble concubine who was also in labor, and gave me her child! But it was inferred to the outside world that I was jealous and wantonly abused the concubines in the house! In fact, it was him, and he was afraid that the people around him would tell me my identity, so he executed all the concubines! ”

Mrs. Gao cried bitterly while complaining, and the ups and downs of that half of her life were all in a few words, making people not know how to comfort and how to explain.

"So you know it all." Li Qi showed a sad look, "When you gave birth to a stillbirth, I was afraid that you would be sad, so I would find a child to replace you." I always thought you didn't know ......"

"How could I not know!" Mrs. Gao's eyes showed hatred, "That's my child, a piece of meat that fell from my pregnancy in October!" Do you think you can find a replacement for me, and I can't sense it? ”

"But you have also raised Heng'er for twenty years...... You ......" Li Qi could no longer speak, "don't say it, it's all my fault." ”

"Yes, it's all your fault! I've been raising your child for twenty years, and I'm going to kill him!" Mrs. Gao laughed sadly, "Li Qi, you ruthless and cold-blooded brute, I only hate that I can't wipe you out and cut you off!" ”

Li Qi was also very sad: "I have raised you for 20 years, and I love you more than treasures, why don't you want to think about how many concubines there are in my house?" Gao is dead, why should I find you to replace her? I killed so many concubines, was I afraid that they would say it? I still don't want to put you at ease? ”

Li Qi seemed to be moved with a little sincerity, but his words annoyed Li Wangzhen, who opened his mouth and asked: "Li Servant, my aunt and your young hair are tied in exchange for your mere 'Gao'?" ”

"Ouch, I don't even call my uncle anymore, it looks like I'm really angry!" Xiao Guo was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so he pointed out sharply, "Hey, no wonder, I was also angry instead." ”

It's a pity that Mrs. Gao didn't appreciate it, and sneered at Li Qi: "When the Gao family knew you well, how did you treat her?" You unruly brute, if you are still like this to your wife, how can you talk about your true feelings for me? ”

Li Qi staggered a step and tried to justify: "She is of another race!" The bloodline is low, how can it be compared to you! ”

"Low blood?" Li Wangzhen has been keeping calm tonight, and at this moment he couldn't bear it anymore, and sneered coldly, "Li Servant, our Ziqing Li clan is all Goguryeo, and my aunt has royal blood, so it turns out that in your eyes, we are all aliens!" ”

Even Li Chengxuan couldn't listen to this matter anymore, frowning and reprimanding: "I have always been inclusive, Taizong once said, 'Siyi family, love is as one'." Moreover, Goguryeo has been destroyed for a hundred years, and it has long been integrated into the bloodline of the Central Plains, and Li Fuchu is still so narrow-minded. ”

After all, the Tang royal family itself has Hu blood, and in the two hundred years since the founding of the country, there have been many foreign officials in the court, and the people have long been accustomed to it. Perhaps the orthodox gate lords will also reject foreigners, but Li Qi has many Lites under him, and he often teaches his cronies to treat them as equals...... It turned out to be all acting.

Up to now, Li Qi also knew that it was useless to defend himself, and he didn't seem to listen to a word of what others said, but looked at Mrs. Gao, and a trace of tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes: "Whether you believe it or not, I am like a brother to your father, and I had no choice but to denounce him back then...... I've been beating myself up all these years. ”

"Self-blame?" Mrs. Gao sneered, "For the sake of your great cause, what else can't you do?" ”

Li Qi was so hurt by her eyes that he simply lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

Xiling Yue sighed: "Madam, I believe what Li Servant said. I'm afraid you don't know yet, he guessed that you were the murderer early on, but he kept it a secret, and even killed me. ”

Mrs. Gao didn't believe it at all: "My plan is so thorough, how could he find out!" ”

Xiling Yue then took out the two white silks from her sleeves: "This is thanks to a mysterious person who left this white silk as a hint next to the corpses of Jiang Yunyi and Shizi." ”

She first handed the first piece of white silk to Mrs. Gao: "This is left by Jiang Yunyi when she died, 'Luoxia and the lonely bird fly together, and the autumn water grows together in the sky'." She handed over the second one, "This is what I found next to the body of the son, 'The stars are divided into wings, and the earth is connected to Henglu'." ”

"At first, I thought that these two white silks were left by the murderer, because one sentence had the word 'autumn' and the other had the word 'heng', as if they were corroborating the name of the deceased. Later, I found out that this was left by a mysterious person, who knew that you were the real murderer behind the scenes, but he didn't dare to say it directly, so he left this white silk to hint at who the real murderer was in Li Fu. ”

"'Luoxia and the lonely bird fly together, and the autumn water grows together in the sky', implying that it is not Wang Qiuluo's name, but Qi Changtian." The stars are divided into wings, and the ground is connected to Henglu', which does not refer to Li Heng, the son of the world, but literally, referring to Hongzhou, Qi Changtian is a native of Hongzhou. The mysterious person chose "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion" as a hint, Li Fushu will naturally be extremely sensitive, and combined with these two sentences, it is not difficult for him to guess who the main messenger is. Xi Lingyue suddenly laughed, "It's just that the mysterious person miscalculated, and I didn't tell Li Fushu about the existence of the first white silk, so he didn't guess who the murderer was for a while, and ordered me to start investigating the case." ”

Seeing that he didn't understand, the mysterious man had to venture into the Treasure Pavilion and carve two sentences on the golden screen. Because he knew that once I investigated the case, I would definitely not be able to bypass those two screens, and it would be safest to leave the hinting words on them, and I could also point the clues to Shopkeeper Liu. Xiling Yuewu said to herself, and couldn't help but admire the intelligence of the mysterious man, and her face showed three points of admiration.

Since Mrs. Gao heard the existence of the "mysterious man", her face was extremely complicated, she was shocked and resentful, and she couldn't help asking, "What words did he leave on the screen?" ”

"'The time is September, and the order belongs to the third autumn'." Xilingyue actually couldn't grasp the meaning of these two sentences, so she humbly asked, "Please also ask Li Fushu and Mrs. to teach, these eight words mean the real Mrs. Gao?" ”

"Yes," Mrs. Gao understood, "she was born in September of the third year of Tianbao, and her milk name is 'Jiu'er', and the small character is 'Xuqiu'." ”
