Chapter 1416: Confessing the Truth
Gu Qinghan frowned and said, "You are talking nonsense again, you will take the rumors in the market seriously?" This is clearly someone deliberately slandering you. ”
"Where the rumors came from, I know very well." Qi Ning said solemnly: "Before Xiao Shaozong died, he told me that I was not of the Qi family's bloodline, and he still had witnesses. ”
Gu Qinghan was stunned and said angrily: "Do you really believe the words of the traitor?" Who are the witnesses he said, let him stand up and theorize. ”
"Today's rumors were released by Xiao Shaozong." Qi Ning sneered: "His purpose, I also know it very well. I ruined his good deeds and made him fall short, so he still does not have peace after death. He just wanted to shake my prestige in Chu State, and more importantly, he wanted to use such means to arouse the emperor's suspicion of me. ”
"The emperor's suspicions?"
"I suddenly understood what the emperor meant." Qi Ning walked to the table and sat down: "I entered the palace to thank the emperor, although the emperor has a heart for me, but ..... I can feel that the emperor seems to be ......! ”
"What seems like it?" Gu Qinghan saw that Qi Ning wanted to speak and stopped, and asked softly.
"It still seems to have a slight suspicion about me." Qi Ning sighed: "He seems to be worried that something will happen in the future, and such a change will happen to me." ”
Gu Qinghan knew that if a courtier was suspicious of the emperor, this would not be good news, and he worried: "The emperor is suspicious of you? What will happen in the future? In order to protect the monarch and protect the country, you don't even want your life, can't this make him believe it? Does he have the ability to predict the future, and will see what happens to you in the future? ”
Qi Ning pondered for a moment before saying, "The emperor shouldn't have been suspicious of me, since he has such a reaction, I guess it must be because of my background." ”
"Background?"
"When the emperor was controlled by Xiao Shaozong, he must have learned something from Xiao Shaozong's mouth." Qi Ning sighed: "Maybe it was because of Xiao Shaozong's words that the emperor was suspicious. ”
Gu Qinghan said, "What will Xiao Shaozong say?" ”
"Naturally, it's about my background." Qi Ning said: "But it stands to reason that no matter what Xiao Shaozong says, the emperor shouldn't be suspicious, because ..... The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and only the emperor really knew my background. ”
Gu Qinghan's beautiful eyes were suddenly a little confused, obviously listening to nonsense, he sat down on a chair next to Qi Ning, and asked, "What do you mean, I ..... Why can't I understand? Didn't you say that Xiao Shaozong knew your background, why did you say that only the emperor knew your background? And..... You are the bloodline of the Jinyi Qi family, what other life experience do you have? ”
Qi Ning was silent, and after a long time, he looked into Gu Qinghan's eyes and said, "Sister, I just said that I am indeed not the bloodline of the Qi family, do you believe it or not?" ”
"Not the Qi family bloodline?" Gu Qinghan raised his hand to cover his cheek, his eyes were full of doubts: "Ning'er, you ..... What exactly are you trying to say? I..... I really don't understand. ”
"There's one thing I didn't want to say to anyone." Qi Ning sighed: "Or, if you really want to tell others, I can only tell you." But..... I don't know if you'll be able to accept it. There were a few times when I did want to tell you the truth because I ..... I don't want to lie to you......! ”
Gu Qinghan took two deep breaths, her chest rose and fell, Qi Ning's words made her think a little messy, and she calmed down for a moment before she said, "You don't want to lie to me, what do you mean by this?" You..... What did you lie to me? ”
"If I wasn't a prince or nobleman, would you still be with me?" Qi Ning stared at Gu Qinghan's eyes and asked, "If I have nothing, would you like to be with me." ”
Gu Qinghan didn't hesitate at all, and said quietly: "We've been together for the past few days, don't you still understand my heart for you?" You have me in your heart, I ..... I was happy, even though I knew we weren't supposed to be together, but ...... When you're away, I always want to be separated from you. Looking at Qi Ning's eyes, he said softly: "Actually, I hope that you are not a prince or noble, so there is no bond, but we can really be together." ”
Qi Ning was moved in his heart, held Gu Qinghan's hand, and said with a smile: "I know that you are sincere to me." His expression became solemn, and he groaned slightly, and then said: "I'm not Qi Ning, I'm just a fake." ”
Gu Qinghan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "What nonsense are you talking about, you are not Qi Ning, then who is Qi Ning, I .......!" The voice slowly quieted down, because she saw that Qi Ning's face was unusually grim, and it didn't seem like she was joking at all, and her voice trembled: "You..... Are you telling the truth? You..... Are you a fake? ”
Qi Ning said: "Do you still remember that the prince of Jinyi was captured by the people of Jiutianlou, Duan Canghai and others chased after him, and finally rescued the prince?" ”
Gu Qinghan nodded and said, "Naturally, I remember." He wondered, "Why did you mention this?" ”
"Let me ask you, before he was captured by Jiutianlou, what was the prince of Jinyi like?" Qi Ning sighed: "After you come back, what will it look like?" ”
Gu Qinghan thought for a moment, his delicate body trembled, and he exclaimed, "Could it be ......!" ”
"No one can look new in such a short period of time." Qi Ning said: "The son of Jinyi has a clear brain, not born like this, but has been poisoned since he was a child, and the poison hurt his brain, if he wants to recover, not only must he find a miracle medicine, but it will also take a long time." ”
Gu Qinghan faintly understood, and said in a trembling voice: "You mean, when you come back, you are no longer ......!" ”
Qi Ning actually faintly felt that the little mink he possessed must have a deep relationship with the brocade family, if he wants to figure out too much about the background behind it, the identity of the little mink will eventually surface, and he will no longer hide it at the moment, and slowly tell the unbelievable period that happened at the beginning, Gu Qinghan listened to it from beginning to end, the more frightened he became, and his face was discolored.
"Duan Canghai and the others mistakenly thought that I was the son of the brocade cloth, and they didn't know that the real brocade prince had been killed, I just put on the clothes of the brocade prince." Qi Ning can completely understand Gu Qinghan's current state of mind: "My true identity is just a homeless child who has fled around because of the war, and I entered Beijing just to find a companion. ”
Although Gu Qinghan was wearing a mask, his eyes were full of shock, and he couldn't speak at all for a while.
"Originally, I wanted to use the Qi family's power to help me find Fluttershy." Qi Ning said: "But I never thought that the situation of the Qi family was so complicated at that time, I even thought that once there was any trouble, I would leave, and the next few times I encountered difficulties, I had such thoughts." ”
Gu Qinghan finally came to his senses and sighed, "Then why didn't you leave?" ”
"Because of you." Qi Ning said: "I'm worried that if I leave, you will be isolated and bullied." The first time I saw you, I fell in love with you, and I thought that I would keep you safe no matter what. Because of you, I can't leave the Qi family, like this..... It's only come to this day! ”
"You..... Is all of this true? Gu Qinghan smiled bitterly: "Are you really just a vagabond?" ”
"Only the emperor knows about this." Qi Ning said: "I just said that on the way to Beijing, I happened to meet the emperor who was still the prince at the time and was chased and killed, and he was saved by mistake. When I arrived in the capital, the first time I saw him, he recognized my identity, but he needed to use the power of the Jinyi Qi family to deal with the enemy of the dynasty, so he could only keep me. ”
Gu Qinghan stood up and walked slowly to the window, without speaking.
It was already completely dark, the streets outside the window were already sparsely populated, it was the end of June, the weather was starting to get muggy, and the atmosphere in the room seemed even more dreary and silent than the sultry weather.
Qi Ning stood up, walked behind Gu Qinghan, and sighed, "Do you think it's incredible? You..... Is it unacceptable? ”
Gu Qinghan finally turned around, looked at Qi Ning with beautiful eyes, and said, "No matter who you are, I am willing to be with you." In the past two years, it is you, not others, who really care about me. The voice was gloomy: "It's just ..... The son of the world was killed, and I felt uncomfortable, he ..... He was pathetic. ”
Qi Ning knew that Gu Qinghan's heart was not only full of shock at the moment, but also sad because of the death of the son of Jinyi, so he hugged Gu Qinghan in the past and said softly: "This has always been a secret in my heart, and I can't tell it to outsiders, but I feel very relaxed to say it today." ”
Gu Qinghan thought for a moment before he said, "We mistakenly thought that you were the son of the world, just because you not only look exactly the same, but also ..... And on your shoulders, there are traces of the exact same son. ”
"Jasper plum hairpin." Qi Ning let go of Gu Qinghan and sat down at the table holding hands: "In the past two years, I have found that the life experience of the prince of Jinyi is not simple, so I have been secretly investigating this matter. The marks on the shoulders of the prince and me are actually imprints, have you seen them, are they the same as plum blossoms? ”
Gu Qinghan nodded and said, "Yes." I..... I knew it was a brand, but ...... I really can't think of anyone who is so ruthless to put a mark on it. Puzzled: "Since you are a wanderer and have nothing to do with the Jinyi Qi family, how can you have the same brand in the same position as the son of the world?" Also, what do you mean by jasper plum hairpin? ”
"Liu Suyi has a jasper plum hairpin, someone has seen it, and Liu Suyi personally said that the jasper plum hairpin is a token of love, a gift from the man she likes." Qi Ning said solemnly: "I always thought that the hairpin was given by General Qi, but now I can't be sure." If I'm not mistaken, the brand on my shoulders with Shizi should be branded by Liu Suyi herself, why she is so ruthless, I don't understand, but since she has such a mark on our backs, it can only prove that our background is related to the man who gave her hairpin. ”
"You mean, your brand is also branded by Liu Suyi?" Gu Qinghan was surprised: "Could it be that you mean .....?" ”
Qi Ning bowed slightly: "I can't be sure, but I have always doubted whether I am also the same as the son of the world, Liu Suyi's biological flesh and blood, Liu Suyi did not just give birth to a child back then, but ...... A pair of twins! ”
