Chapter 296: Buried with His Own Hands (Plus 1200)
"Good looks." Qi Hao looked at the Eighth Prince carefully for a while, raised his hand and habitually touched the Eighth Prince's head.
The Eighth Prince subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he still stood firm.
In Qi Hao's memory, the Eighth Prince seemed to have never worn such gaudy clothes.
I have to say that the eighth prince has fair skin, and his eyes are clear but a little deeper than before.
If in a few years, when he grows up, he must have won the hearts of many girls.
Of course, now there are many little palace maids who have begun to secretly promise to the Eighth Prince.
After all, the eighth prince is good-looking and has a gentle temper.
Although it was raised under the queen's knees, this did not prevent him from leaning against the big tree to enjoy the shade.
Sensing the resistance that flashed in the eyes of the Eighth Prince just now, Qi Hao's eyes sank, withdrew his hand, and said with a smile: "Little Eight has grown up."
The Eighth Prince smiled and did not speak, but instructed Xiao Xiangzi to pour tea for Qi Hao.
After Qi Hao sat down, he asked, "After the fourth brother comes back, he shouldn't go back to Nanshan, right?"
Nanshan is outside the city, and the meaning of the Eighth Prince is actually asking whether Qi Hao is starting to regain power.
Qi Hao nodded and said with a smile: "I have been away from Beijing for two years, and I won't go back this time."
The eighth prince said "um", took the teacup handed over by Xiao Xiangzi, and did not speak again.
Maybe they haven't seen each other for a long time, and there doesn't seem to be much talk between the two brothers.
After chatting casually with the Eighth Prince, Qi Hao got up and said, "Little Ba, I have nothing to do to go to the Fourth Brother's Mansion to play."
The Eighth Prince replied with a "yes", then stood up and watched Qi Hao leave until he couldn't see his figure.
Even Xiao Xiangzi noticed that the Eighth Prince was not as enthusiastic about Qi Hao as he was in his early years, and when he saw the Eighth Prince's gloomy eyes, he couldn't help but ask: "Master, you haven't seen Prince Ning for so long, why don't you talk more?"
The eighth prince retracted his gaze, sat down, and said lightly: "The fourth brother has just returned to Beijing and has started to take charge of the military camp again, so naturally he has a lot of things to do."
"Besides, the fourth brother doesn't plan to go back to Nanshan, so I can meet him whenever I want."
Xiao Xiangzi felt that what the Eighth Prince said was also reasonable, so he didn't ask any more.
The Eighth Prince lowered his eyes and gently stroked the auspicious clouds on his cuffs.
The auspicious clouds were embroidered with extremely fine silk, which added a lot of highlights to his red clothes.
The corners of his lips overflowed with a hint of coldness, his eyes seemed to be infected by this red, and the circles under his eyes were slightly red.
There is nothing in this world that is static, and there is nothing that changes instantly.
In particular, the affection between people is ......
Feelings are the things that can't stand the test of time.
This is true of love, and even more so of family affection......
In Fengluan Palace, the queen squinted her eyes and asked, "I heard that Qi Hao went to Minghui Palace just now?"
Qiu Cicada nodded and replied, "Yes."
Knowing that the queen didn't like Qi Hao to interact with the eighth prince, Qiu Chan was afraid that the queen would be displeased, so she hurriedly added: "However, don't worry, Niangniang, Prince Ning only sat in Minghui Palace for a short time and left."
The queen sneered, and a cold light flashed in her phoenix eyes, "In the past two years that Qi Hao has been absent from Beijing, Xiaoba has finally opened up, knows how to make progress, and knows how to please the emperor." ”
"Bengong is afraid that as soon as Qi Hao comes back, Xiaoba will turn back to when he was sticking to Qi Hao before, and finally let the bamboo basket of Bengong be empty."
"Niangniang, the Eighth Prince has grown up, you don't need to worry about some things, the slave believes that the Eighth Prince will handle it." Qiu Cicada thought for a moment and replied.
"Alas, this kid is simple-minded, otherwise he wouldn't have broken his leg by Concubine Li." At the mention of this matter, the queen's tone unconsciously became cold, "By the way, Concubine Li asked the emperor to choose a new princess for King Qing a few days ago?" ”
Qiu Cicada said: "Well, I heard what the little eunuch who was waiting in the imperial study said."
"Heh, Princess Qing's seat has been vacant for two years, and Concubine Li is naturally going to form a gang for King Qing." The queen pursed her lips and said quietly: "You send someone to pay attention to it at all times, once the princess of Qing has a suitable candidate, you must tell the palace as soon as possible."
Gu Jinxiu's death, Gu Chengen did not find out the murderer for half a month.
This was the first time he was frustrated since he became a waiter in the criminal department.
Because the eldest lady is crazy, the prime minister's mansion is not at peace, and the matter of finding the murderer has to be closed in the end.
The former dynasty was closely related to the harem, so Concubine Li wanted to select a woman of appropriate age from the family of the powerful ministers in the court to be the princess of the Qing Dynasty in order to consolidate the position of the Qing king.
If the old emperor hadn't married Shen Biyun to Qi Hao two years ago, then the person who made Concubine Li the most favored was Shen Biyun.
It's a pity that Shen Biyun "died unexpectedly" on the day of her wedding to Qi Hao, Shen Minghui collapsed, and Concubine Li had to find another candidate.
It's just that everyone still maintains the first impression of King Qing, thinking that he is ruthless, and not long after marrying Gu Jinxiu, Gu Jinxiu died, and there are rumors that his life is too hard, and he specializes in wifery, so no one dares to marry him.
After a long time, whether it was for the sake of finding allies for the Qing King or for the sake of the Qing King's heirs, Concubine Li was anxious, so she begged the old emperor to quickly re-elect the princess for the Qing King.
Of course, there are no princesses, in addition to King Qing, there is also King Xuan.
In the eyes of everyone, King Xuan is more gentle, and many people have planned to marry their daughters to King Xuan.
But King Xuan's attitude is always ambiguous, and he also accepted a side concubine a year ago, but he always does not share a room with others.
Even Ah Bao, the concubine who has served him in the house for many years, has not slept with him for a long time.
The reason for this, except for Po, probably no one knows.
King Xuan was infected with Hualiu disease by Gu Jinxiu, which was very serious, and he didn't know how many doctors he had found to treat him in private, but it had no effect at all.
Not only does he have to abstain from sex and abstinence, but he also has to be quite restricted in terms of diet, so King Xuan, who is beautiful on the surface, is actually living a very painful life in secret.
Similarly, King Qing, who had had a few happy encounters with Gu Jinxiu, was much less ill than King Xuan, but he couldn't have sex with the two little palace maids that Concubine Li had rewarded him before.
Otherwise, the symptoms will worsen.
Two people have long known that they share the same woman with each other, and they are both infected with dirty diseases, so they will inevitably regard each other as the culprit.
However, it is impossible for the two of them to make a noise about this kind of thing, after all, it is not a glorious thing.
It's a pity that the concubines in the mansion, they worked hard to climb the bed to flatter, but even if they took off their clothes, they were only the last step, and the two princes would definitely not do what they wanted......
Suddenly thinking of something, the queen asked again: "Also, I heard that the emperor stayed in the palace of Concubine De last night?"
Seeing that the queen's face was ugly, Qiu Chan said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, he ...... It has been three consecutive days of resting in the Defei Palace. ”
After hearing this, the queen tore the handkerchief in her hand, gritted her teeth and said: "Over the years, Concubine De has been dressed lightly and lightly all day long, and she is the one who is best at acting in this harem!"
Qiu Chan comforted: "Niangniang, Concubine De is used to acting, but the emperor does not show special importance to King Xuan, so it can be seen that Concubine De may not be able to affect the emperor's judgment."
"Who can know the emperor's thoughts?" The queen exhaled a heavy breath of turbidity and said impatiently: "Earlier, the palace thought that the emperor was very important, but seeing that Qi Hao and the emperor always looked at each other, it was not necessarily that the emperor would give him the throne."
"After Qi Hao left Beijing, in the past two years, the emperor handed over all the major affairs of the court to the Qing King and the Xuan King, and it seems that he is also very satisfied with them."
"Now, the military power of the Dongshan Barracks will be taken back when it is said to be recovered, alas!"
"That's it, what did this palace tell you about? The emperor's thoughts, you can't even understand. Waving her hand, the queen motioned for the autumn cicada to retreat.
After Lin Sheng left the palace, he returned to the White Jade Tower.
She told Chen Zexuan and the man in black what happened in the palace in detail one by one, Chen Zexuan listened to it and said nervously: "Qi Hao did it with you?" Have you ever been injured? ”
After that, he looked Lin Sheng up and down worriedly.
Lin Sheng's heart warmed, and he shook his head and said, "Brother, I'm fine."
The focus of the man in black is different from Chen Zexuan.
He frowned and asked in a cold voice, "Does he suspect you?"
Lin Sheng recalled the smile with a deep meaning before Qi Hao stepped into Minghui Palace, and hesitated: "Master, he warned me not to do things that should not be done."
"So...... I'm not sure he ever doubted my identity. ”
"What?" When the man in black heard this, he couldn't help but raise his voice.
Lin Sheng saw that the eyes of the man in black exposed outside the mask were glowing with a little cold light, and immediately said, "Master, although I don't know what he thinks in his heart, I am sure that I didn't show any horses' feet."
"Hmph, I hope so." The man in black snorted angrily and looked at Lin Sheng coldly: "Since the old emperor gave you silver, then you will go out to buy a house in a while, so as not to make them careless."
When she was in the palace, Lin Sheng proposed to ask the old emperor to reward the mansion, although she was inexplicably intervened by Qi Hao, but in the end she opened her mouth, so she had to pretend to go outside to see the house.
"Master, Sheng'er bought a courtyard before, and let her live there in the future." The courtyard in Chen Zexuan's mouth was the courtyard that Gu Jinli bought through Chen Liang.
When Gu Jinli went to see the house for the first time, the word "Fengfu" was written on the door plaque.
At that time, she was still strange that the surname "Feng" was rare in Qi country.
But now that I think about it, that courtyard belongs to Chen Zexuan, so it is not difficult to understand that he has "Feng" as his surname.
It's just that Lin Sheng lost this memory, and his face was a little dazed.
Chen Zexuan sighed lightly and said, "Sheng'er, you also have a Yuelai teahouse under your name."
"That tea room was designed by you, and I will let it come back to you when I have the opportunity in the future."
After Gu Jinli jumped off the cliff, Chen Liang, the shopkeeper, was sad for a long time.
Originally, he wanted to close the tearoom and disband the guys home, but when he thought that everything in this tearoom was Gu Jinli's hard work, so after careful consideration, he decided to continue to run the tearoom.
In addition to the wages due to himself and his friends, he carefully recorded the profit account every month in the account book and deposited it in the name of Gu Jinli.
He planned to take out all the money deposited in the money bank after the teahouse couldn't do it one day, and then bury it next to Gu Jinli's clothed mound.
In this way, it can be regarded as giving her an "explanation".
Of course, it is no secret that Gu Jinli's well-dressed mound is in Nanshan.
After all, Gu Jinli's jumping off the cliff two years ago was so big, and everyone in Beijing knew about it, and no one knew about it.
One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and it spread among the common people.
It can be seen how sensational it was at that time......
"Tea room?" Lin Sheng's eyes moved slightly, "I didn't expect that I have a courtyard and a tea room." ”
The man in black coughed lightly twice, glanced at Chen Zexuan meaningfully, and seemed to signal him not to mention Gu Jinli's past too much.
"Sheng'er, I'll draw you the address, you can find it yourself." Chen Zexuan stood up and walked to the side of the table as he said, "I'll let Lei Zi protect you in the dark."
Without the Holy Decree, Chen Zexuan would not be able to enter the capital.
Lin Sheng knew that Chen Zexuan was not suitable to show his face, so he said, "Okay."
Soon, Chen Zexuan drew the address.
After Lin Sheng left with the drawing paper, the man in black glared at Chen Zexuan dissatisfiedly: "Xuan, you talked too much just now."
Chen Zexuan moved his lips and said in a muffled voice: "The apprentice knows."
The man in black raised his hand and picked up the teacup, and said slowly while steaming: "If Qi Hao has suspicions about her, then she will definitely be investigated."
Chen Zexuan's thin lips pursed, and he said after a while: "Master, she shouldn't be recognized by Qi Hao."
Privately speaking, Chen Zexuan didn't want Qi Hao to know that Lin Sheng was Gu Jinli.
Maybe the man in black didn't know enough about Qi Hao's feelings for Gu Jinli, but Chen Zexuan knew.
The reason why Qi Hao snubbed Gu Jinli back then, Chen Zexuan could also guess it.
And after witnessing Gu Jinli jumping off the cliff with his own eyes, Qi Hao's reaction as if he was crazy can see the weight of Gu Jinli in his mind.
Leaving the capital and retiring to Nanshan, although Qi Hao has always been secretly interfering in the affairs of Beijing, he will sit next to Gu Jinli's mound every day, rain or shine, which is extremely rare in Chen Zexuan's opinion.
There are three ways for people to die.
The first is that the body loses any life characteristics.
The second is the disappearance of the individual's social identity from this world.
The third is the most complete and the most sad kind of death.
When everyone forgets you, and no one cares about you anymore and misses you, this is "death" in the true sense.
Qi Hao can miss Gu Jinli, such feelings are not easy.
Between him and Gu Jinli, it was a mistake at first, and then it was a human misunderstanding.
In short, if Gu Jinli regained her memory and knew what Qi Hao had done for her, Chen Zexuan really didn't dare to be sure if Gu Jinli would be soft-hearted.
The man in black took a sip of tea and said quietly: "Her appearance and temperament have changed, even if Qi Hao recognizes her, she will only think she is Lin Sheng."
Chen Zexuan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, which was an indescribable boredom.
According to the drawing paper given by Chen Zexuan, Lin Sheng quickly found the house.
The people in the house were still the same as back then, and they were very surprised to see someone suddenly coming, after all, there had been no one in this courtyard for a long time.
The subordinate in charge of cleaning hurriedly ran to the Yuelai tearoom and told Chen Liang the news that someone wanted to see the house.
Although the courtyard had been empty, Chen Liang had never announced that he would rent the house, so he was also surprised and followed his subordinates to the courtyard.
After Lin Sheng met Chen Liang, he simply and clearly stated that he wanted to buy the house.
Chen Liang was very embarrassed, how to say that the owner of this house was Gu Jinli.
Even when she's gone, she's the owner of the house.
Chen Liang couldn't make the decision for Gu Jinli, but seeing that Lin Sheng really liked this courtyard again, he was very embarrassed.
Chen Zexuan said that the house was Gu Jinli's, but it was impossible for Lin Sheng, who had changed his face, to reveal his identity to Chen Liang.
Moreover, even if she said that she was Gu Jinli, in the face of such a completely different face, Chen Liang must not believe it.
After struggling for a while, both sides took a step back, and Chen Liang did not sell this house, but only rented it to Lin Sheng.
Anyway, the house is just Lin Sheng's cover for himself, so it doesn't matter if it's rented or sold.
After signing the lease contract, Lin Sheng inspected the house under the leadership of Chen Liang.
The subordinates are very conscientious, they clean the house every day, and the furniture and other things in the house are also brand new, which makes Lin Sheng very satisfied.
However, the word "Fengfu" on the door plaque is not suitable now.
Lin Sheng asked people to put away the door plaque and replace it with "Lin Mansion".
The old emperor and Qi Hao's people must be watching their every move in the dark, and if they don't change the door plaque, it's a bit unreasonable.
And changed the door plaque, and a "Lin Mansion" inadvertently revealed her surname.
Those people spied on her three times and twice?
