Chapter 153: They Are Twin Brothers
When this abandoned courtyard was originally chosen, in addition to its distance from Cang'er Town, it was also convenient to retreat at any time because it was convenient to retreat in all directions.
After Liu Xi and Mei Guifei and their party tore a hole in the backyard, they didn't stop at all, and ran straight towards the mountains behind.
The forest is easy to hide and escape.
If someone catches up, as long as they act separately, it will not be easy to be caught.
However, no matter how well a few people calculated, they still fell into Qin Muhan's encirclement after all.
Before they could separate, Mei Guifei and the others were already surrounded by the Tsing Yi Guard.
"Tsing Yi Wei!"
For Tsing Yi Wei, Liu Xi may be unfamiliar, but Mei Guifei is very familiar.
"It seems that the concubine is really no stranger to Tsing Yiwei."
Qing Xuan's figure suddenly appeared, as if falling from the sky, and landed directly at the front of the team.
Seeing his figure, Concubine Mei's expression was very flustered, and her eyes kept sweeping around.
After making sure that he didn't see the familiar figure, he suddenly spoke, "You, why are you here!" ”
"The concubine and the chief eunuch can appear here, why can't I?"
As the chief manager of Beigong Xu's side, Liu Xi is no stranger to Qingxuan.
Seeing this person who he thought would never appear in this place, Liu Xi's whole person was not good.
"Aren't you the personal guard of the Seventh Prince, how can you ......" Liu Xi was halfway through speaking, suddenly remembered something, and made the same action as Mei Guifei before.
"The Seventh Highness is also here?"
"This is His Royal Highness's grandfather's house, it's normal for us to be here, but it's the noble concubine Niangniang and the chief manager Liu, I don't know why the two of you are here?"
"You are lying, His Royal Highness the Seventh has been seriously ill, how can he ......"
Before coming here, Liu Xi also went to the Seven Princes' Mansion in person to visit the sick Beigong Ming.
He never thought he would run into them here.
"We were deceived."
Concubine Mei's eyes were deep, staring at Qing Xuan tightly, word by word, "The Seventh Prince may not be sick at all, he fainted in my palace before, and he also pretended." ”
Liu Xi didn't know why, when Beigong Ming fainted, he was seen by many people.
It is also a fact that Beigong Xun beat Qin Muhan.
Even the person who treated Qin Muhan was the most trusted imperial doctor in the palace, and there would never be a mistake.
Concubine Mei obviously thought of this as well, and her expression was solemn, "Although I don't know how he did it, what is certain is that the reason why Beigong Ming fainted was definitely to prepare for what happened later." ”
"After that?"
"The emperor exempted all etiquette, and it was a good intention to let the Seven Princes recuperate in the mansion with peace of mind, but I didn't expect that the Seven Princes would use this to cover people's eyes and take the opportunity to leave the Seven Princes' Mansion and appear here......"
"But...... Before I came, I had a clear ...... of the house."
Concubine Mei's face was gloomy, she originally thought that everything was under her control, but now she realized that some things had exceeded her expectations.
"That's because, Gonggong Liu, the person you saw was not Beigong Ming at all."
"What!"
Concubine Mei didn't plan to say these things, for fear that the emperor would have a gap with her.
Unexpectedly, her concealment actually caused so much trouble to herself.
Today, even death.
She also definitely wanted to tell that matter, in this way, as long as one of the people present escaped, the emperor would never let Qin Muhan go.
Thinking of this, Mei Guifei's face crossed with determination.
It doesn't matter if she dies, the main thing is that her son can't be fine.
If the emperor knew about this, he might have taken care of his old feelings and her sacrifice and let his son go......
"If I'm not wrong, the person you saw before is Beigong Mo, Beigong Ming's twin brother!"
This news is simply too exciting.
Liu Xi and the Imperial Forest Army present looked at each other in shock.
They never knew that Qin Guifei gave birth to twins back then.
"This, such a big thing, why didn't you say it before."
Liu Xi's face was so blue that he even forgot his honorific title.
It's been more than twenty years.
Qin Guifei has been dead for more than ten years, and now Beigong Ming is also in her twenties, and no one has found out about this matter.
"I also accidentally knew not long ago, and Gonggong Liu also knows the emperor's temperament, if I don't find the right reason and the right time, how dare I speak rashly, but unfortunately, I didn't wait for that opportunity, I encountered this kind of thing first."
In a word, Liu Xi finally calmed down.
Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, he has been by Beigong Xu's side for so many years.
Naturally, he knows his character best.
Mei Guifei is right, if you don't find the right time, I'm afraid that Mei Guifei herself will die.
For now, we still have to find a way to escape from here first.
But he almost had a gap with Mei Guifei because of her words.
Once they fight in the nest.
The other party, doing nothing, has already won.
However, as soon as Liu Xi was angry, Qing Xuan on the opposite side suddenly spoke.
"Just found out recently?"
Qing Xuan's tone was frivolous, and just one sentence made Mei Guifei's face change, he said, "When Qin Guifei gave birth, Mei Guifei was always by her side, could it be that Qing Xuan remembered something wrong?" ”
Liu Xian also seemed to suddenly think of this matter, and the eyes that looked at Mei Guifei had become very gloomy.
No wonder, no wonder although the emperor gave Mei Guifei the supreme favor, he rarely got lucky.
After all, the emperor doesn't trust this woman, right?
Also, if it is really trusted, why is the supreme command of this mission in his hands.
Before, he didn't think about the reason, but the emperor couldn't bear to let his women be too tired, but now it seems that the emperor didn't trust Mei Guifei from the beginning.
"Over the years, I don't know who it is, and I have been secretly sending people to hunt down and kill our Royal Highness......"
Qing Xuan's fluttering words simply made Mei Guifei's whole person a little collapsed.
"You, what are you talking nonsense? When my sister gave birth, she had shut me out, how could I know the specific situation inside? Don't be here to stir up a relationship between us. ”
Immediately, Concubine Mei looked at Liu Xi, "Father-in-law Liu, don't listen to his nonsense, this matter was framed by him, he just wants to watch us turn against each other, so as to achieve their ulterior secret." ”
"Huh." On the other side, there was a sudden sneer.
Qing Xuan played with the sword in his hand, his expression frivolous.
"That'...... How could Mei Guifei know that these people around me were Tsing Yi Wei just by looking at it? How does a woman who has lived in the deep palace for a long time know who the forces in the rivers and lakes that even her father-in-law doesn't know are owned by? ”
"I, I just ...... by chance"
"By chance?" Qing Xuan interrupted in a deep voice, "Could it be that I remembered wrong?" Before, the person who sent someone to assassinate His Royal Highness of our family again and again was not Concubine Mei? ”
"No, it's not me...... I don't know what you're going to say. ”
Concubine Mei was very flustered and wanted to explain.
But Liu Xi's eyes were already full of doubt.
Mei Guifei not only concealed that Qin Guifei gave birth to twin sons, but also secretly sent someone to assassinate the prince.
Even if Beigong Ming is not treated by the emperor.
But, after all, it was the prince.
Assassinating the prince is a felony!
However, Liu Xi is not a person who can be deviated by Qing Xuan's few words.
Even if you think Mei Guifei deserves to die.
will not be stupid enough to question Mei Guifei at such a time.
Liu Xi's eyes were dark, and his gaze only glanced at Mei Guifei's face before moving away.
"I will verify these things, so I won't bother the guards."
Qing Xuan's eyebrows were slightly raised, and he was not surprised at all by Liu Xi's reaction.
"I just don't know, what's the matter with the green guard?"
"It's not a big deal."
Qing Xuan's tone was lazy.
"It's just that someone tried to steal the secrets of Cang'er Mountain Villa and killed dozens of villagers near Canghai, and I was ordered to track down the gangsters."
Hearing this, Liu Xi's face stiffened slightly.
"Someone dares to fight the idea of Cang'er Villa, and deliberately kills people, the real crime is unforgivable."
Qing Xuan hooked his lips, "Not really." ”
"With so many people dead, this is a big deal, and the green guards must be very busy." After a moment of silence, Liu Xi continued, "It just so happens that the Sprinkle family also has important things to do, so I won't bother the Qing guards, so I will leave." ”
As he spoke, he waved his hand and tried to leave.
Qing Xuan squinted slightly, and the surrounding Qingyi guards immediately stepped forward and surrounded the people to death.
Liu Xi looked stunned, "What does Qing Guard mean by this?" ”
"Manager Liu hasn't said yet, what are you doing here?"
"I am here on the orders of the emperor to do business, and I can't say the specific details."
"If you don't say it, you won't say it." Qing Xuan really seemed to just ask casually, seeing that they didn't say anything, they didn't ask, "I see that Steward Liu is also tired, since you have arrived at the territory of Cang'er Villa, why don't you go to Cang'er Villa with me to rest for a while?" ”
Without waiting for Liu Xi to speak, Qingxuan had already looked at Mei Guifei, "Speaking of which, Cang'er Villa is also Mei Guifei's mother's family, and now, Mei Guifei has become a celebrity in front of the emperor, and she has no chance to leave the palace on weekdays, today, since you have arrived here, why don't you come with me and go home to see?" ”
"No, no......"
Concubine Mei didn't know how to refuse.
can only desperately give Liu Xi a look.
Liu Xi looked around.
These people, at first glance, are not ordinary people.
If it is forced, it will not be pleased.
Now, a lot of questions are in his mind.
About the twins of the Seven Princes, about why the Seven Princes appeared here, and about whether what Mei Guifei said before was true or false.
The main thing is, about Cang'er Mountain Villa......
His mission this time.
If he went back like this, the emperor would be furious.
Normally, they had no way to go to Cang'er Mountain Villa, and it was impossible to even get close.
That being the case......
Why don't you take this opportunity to take a look.
Perhaps, there will be a different harvest.
can also know whether Cang'er Mountain Villa has what they want.
Thinking of this, Liu Xi's eyes narrowed.
A hint of calculation.
He is the current big celebrity in front of the emperor, and he is one of the most trusted people by the emperor.
Beigong Ming is the prince, so he should naturally know that what he says, the emperor will listen to it more or less.
Pleasing him is equivalent to pleasing the emperor......
immediately nodded, "Since the Qing guards have already said so, it is better to obey the Sprinkle family than to be respectful." ”
"Grandpa Liu!"
Concubine Mei frowned and spoke anxiously.
For Qin Muhan, she is more familiar than Liu Xi.
That's a vicious man.
Now, if they run away with all their might, they may have a chance to live.
But if you leave with Qing Xuan, it must be a dead end.
It's a pity that what happened just now has left a shadow in Liu Xi's heart.
The current Mei Guifei, no matter what she says, Liu Xi treats her as a fart and doesn't consider her opinion at all.
"What, Concubine Mei doesn't want to go home to see?"
In a word, she almost choked Mei Guifei to death.
Her eyes widened and she kept signaling to Liu Xi.
It's a pity that Liu Xi didn't want to deal with her at all.
If it was usual, Mei Guifei would definitely slap him a few times.
Make him so stupid.
But now......
They are grasshoppers on a rope.
If you pull a hair, you will move the whole body!
She didn't want to die yet.
I could only say stiffly.
"Why, how come, it's true that I haven't been back for a long time. Since the green guard said so, let's go back and sit down. ”
It's not that Concubine Mei suddenly compromised, she just thought about it suddenly.
The people in Cang'er Mountain Villa are very kind.
Qin Ji treated her very well and treated her like a daughter.
Although there has been no contact over the years......
However, as long as she is coquettish, she will think of a suitable reason to prevaricate the things of the year, and by the way, find an opportunity to report Liu Xi, secretly, and find a way to get rid of it quietly......
Well, no one knows what happened before.
And Qin Muhan may have more trust in her because of this.
Just thinking about it like this, Mei Guifei instantly felt as if she saw hope.
"Okay, let's go back."
The sudden change made Liu Xi frown slightly.
In his heart, he was also a little more wary of Concubine Mei.
Cang'er Villa.
Mei Guifei was taken to the hall, kneeling pitifully in the hall, and said what she had said in front of Qin Muhan with tears in her eyes.
At this moment, she is no longer the high-flying Mei Guifei, as if she is still a little maid who walked out of Cang'er Villa.
"Really, head of the house, you have to believe me, I really had no choice at that time."
"I've waited so many years, and I've finally waited for the opportunity to come back and plead with you." Speaking of this, Meizi knelt on the ground and kowtowed violently.
Soon, her forehead turned red, and she said, "Master of the family, Mei'er is here, if you want to kill or chop, I will never complain......"
If it weren't for Qin Muhan's wake-up call before, everyone was afraid that they would really be surrounded by Mei Guifei's trick of retreating and believing her words.
But after knowing that she was the one who brought the crisis to Cang'er Villa, and she was very likely to be the murderer who killed her daughter back then, Qin Ji's face was very ugly.
For a long time, Qin Shuqin has always regarded Meizi as his good sister.
Be the person she trusts the most.
But this person she trusted the most, secretly, hooked up with her husband, and now, he is even luring a wolf into the house and wants to annex Cang'er Villa.
Who would have thought that such a vicious mind would come from such a weak woman.
Thinking of the cultivation and expectations that had been placed on her, Qin Ji was sad and indignant.
If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to find out the truth of what happened back then, he would really be too lazy to talk nonsense with her now.
"Are you sure that you didn't appear because you harbored evil intentions, lured wolves into the house, and even wanted to take Cang'er Mountain Villa for yourself?"
Xu didn't expect Qin Ji to be so calm and talk to her in such an unfamiliar tone, Concubine Mei was immediately stunned.
After a while, she regained her senses and kept kowtowing to Qin Ji.
"Of course not."
"Big brother, we grew up together, please believe me, I really knew that the emperor was going to send Liu Xi over here to carry out the mission, so I told the emperor that I was familiar with this side and could come with me."
"Along the way, I tried my best, and finally learned that Liu Xi was actually ordered to send someone to infiltrate Cang'er Mountain Villa to find out information."
"I was in a hurry and wanted to secretly pass the news to the head of the family, but he kept sending people to follow me every step of the way."
"I couldn't leave, I couldn't do anything, really, I was always looking for opportunities and just ......"
"That's enough."
Qin Ji's patience ran out, "You just said that you couldn't resist, so you stayed with the emperor all the time, and you plan to wait for my daughter's first seven years to take revenge?" ”
Concubine Mei had never seen Qin Ji like this, so she was immediately frightened, and could only answer in a daze, "Yes." ”
"You said, it was because I found out that I was pregnant, so I kept holding back for the sake of the child?"
"Yes, the head of the house."
"If things are as you say, why didn't you do it in the years that followed?" Without waiting for Concubine Mei to speak, in the next sentence, Qin Ji had already opened her mouth to block her back road, "Between husband and wife, sharing the same bed, you have a chance to kill him." ”
Mei Guifei's eyes flashed slightly, and she suddenly felt that it seemed wrong to promise to come back.
The people here are no longer what she is familiar with.
However, by now, she had no way out.
I could only bite the bullet and say, "I hate the emperor, and the emperor has also been guarding against me, how can he really trust me?" Over the years, he rarely came to my dormitory, and he ......"
"And what?"
"The head of the family, I hate the emperor is true, but he is the father of my children, this is also true, even if there is an occasional opportunity, I, I ...... I really can't do anything to the father of my child......"
What Mei Guifei said was true.
A lot of the time, that's the case.
A mixture of true and false news can be convincing.
She firmly believes that although Cang'er Mountain Villa is strong, they are powerful, and their hands cannot reach the Imperial Palace.
But she forgot.
In this room, there is someone from the imperial capital.
"Mu Han said, your son Beigong Xun's age is not much different from him, not long after he was born, your child was also born. You say, should I believe you or Muhan? ”
Hearing this, Concubine Mei's face turned pale.
"Mu Han was just born back then, where would he know these things......"
I haven't seen Qin Muhan just now, and even Qing Xuan only appeared when he was arrested, and he has not seen anyone at all until now.
So much so that she thought that Qin Muhan really didn't come here.
She even firmly believed that Qin Muhan was terminally ill.
Qing Xuan's appearance was just to inform the Qin family master that Qin Muhan's life was not long in coming.
Hearing Qin Ji's words at this moment, she almost fainted.
In this way, Fang Cai's guess was wrong.
It is very likely that Qin Muhan is on the island.
Mei Guifei's expression was mixed, and her eyes looked around.
I didn't see Qin Muhan.
"What are you doing in such a panic? Could it be that what Mu Han said is true? Even my daughter's death has something to do with you? ”
Hearing this, Mei Guifei was shocked.
pinched his palms vigorously, and secretly blamed himself for not being calm enough.
She squeezed out two tears, "Wronged, the head of the family, my sister left the root of the disease when she gave birth to two children, and since then, her health has been very poor, and later, because of the emperor's estrangement and depression, she finally ...... It's also a depression and dies......"
"Isn't it because of the hemorrhage caused by the sudden betrayal of my husband and my good sister at the same time during childbirth?"
Qin Qin has endured it for a long time.
Listening to this woman's avoidance of talking about her child's age, she couldn't help but directly say Qin Muhan's previous guess.
The third sister's health has always been very good.
She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she usually has very little chance of contracting wind and cold, and during the time she was pregnant, they also kept receiving letters from her, saying that she didn't feel that she was pregnant at all, so there was a very big difference from usual.
The dark guard has always said that Qin'er's body is very good.
How could it suddenly bleed heavily, Qin'er is not the kind of person who can't afford to let go.
At the beginning, the reason why she was willing to follow Beigong Xu and even send herself to the palace shows that she is fully prepared.
She knew that Beigong Xu would not be the only woman by her side.
Even if you feel uncomfortable, you will definitely not take anything wrong with your body.
is willing to follow because Beigong Xu loves her.
If she was sure that Beigong Xu didn't have her in her heart, presumably, she wouldn't do anything drastic.
Unless, behind this love, there is some other conspiracy, or as they suspected, she was hit hard before giving birth.
Naturally, other women can't stimulate her.
But if that person was Concubine Mei, everything would be different.
If she still knew at this time, Concubine Mei was also pregnant, and the child was the emperor's, and the child would be born in a few months......
That kind of blow is absolutely fatal!
Mei Guifei's eyes flickered, she looked at the person in front of her, and had to explain stiffly, "Are these all what Mu Han said?" No, it's not, Xun'er is much younger than Mu Han, he, he'......"
"Head of the family, I swear to God, I definitely didn't do anything to be sorry for my sister, otherwise, I wouldn't have kept guarding the fact that my sister gave birth to twins, and I wouldn't have secretly sent someone to protect Mu Han for so many years......"
"Is it really protection?"
Qin Muhan's sudden appearance frightened Concubine Mei into speechlessness for a long time.
The person at the door had a ruddy complexion and a steady breath.
There is a feeling of terminal illness on the body.
The opening is also full of energy.
"How do I remember that over the years, it has always been the noble concubine Niangniang who sent people to chase and kill, and she couldn't wait to break our two brothers into pieces?"
"You, how could you...... No, it won't, how could you be fine. ”
Concubine Mei knew that Qin Muhan was sick early on, and what she said in the woods was just to convince Liu Xi of the stubble, the only thing she wasn't sure about was how long Qin Muhan could live......
"Why, Concubine Mei seems to be surprised to see me?"
A white light flashed in her mind, and Concubine Mei stared at Qin Muhan for a long time, then said, "You are Xiao Mo, right?" Your brother is not in good health, how can he be here. ”
Qin Muhan's pupils shrank, and he said casually, "The noble concubine seems to know my condition very well?" ”
