CHAPTER XXXVIII
Liu Chengzhi was not reluctant, so he talked to the girl.
While speaking, I learned that the woman's surname was Guilan, originally from Cangzhou, and her hometown was flooded when she was about ten years old, and her parents died, leaving her and her grandfather to rely on each other. Her father used to be a gentleman in a private school in the village, teaching the children in the village to read to support the family, so she also learned something since she was a child and could read and write.
Life was difficult, at the age of twelve, she left her hometown with her grandfather, went out to sing, begging for food to live, and when she was a little older, she decided to only sing and no longer beg. At the age of sixteen, when the grandfather and grandson heard that the Ming country was rich, they fled to Jinling. Because of her good voice and delicate appearance, she soon became famous in the Jinling Mansion area. But she only sings in a few reputable wine shops and teahouses to make a living, and never sings in people's homes. There are quite a few rich people sympathetic
This old and young man is not short of ambitions, and he is willing to let them set up a stage to sing.
And a few days ago, after "colliding" with Liu Chengzhi, my grandfather was old and frail, and he couldn't afford to get sick, and his life was poor, so the girl had to come out and sing alone, and she didn't want to be here, and she met Liu Chengzhi again.
Liu Chengzhi immediately asked Yu Guilan to lead the way and took the medical worker to treat his grandfather, and because of this, Yu Guilan was attached to Liu Chengzhi's body with tenderness.
It was supposed to be a happy day like a concubine, but I didn't want to, one day, Yu Guilan suddenly disappeared.
Liu Chengzhi searched like crazy, and searched almost the entire Jinling Mansion, but there was no news of Yu Guilan.
Just when Liu Chengzhi was desperate, Yu Guilan's "grandfather" pointed out a "clear way" for Liu Chengzhi, that is, to ask to see Yu Guilan's biological father.
Liu Chengzhi was stunned, this was what Yu Guilan clearly told him at the beginning. His parents are both deceased, where is this biological father?
Liu Chengzhi didn't know that this was true for Yu Guilan except for her name. Everything else is fake, and this so-called "grandfather" is only a house slave of Jerodusha.
Yelu Dusha was the leader of the Liao State sent by Yelu Jing to the Ming State to specialize in rebellion, sabotage, assassination, etc.
At that time, when Yelu Jing sent Yelu Shuogu to lead 60,000 troops south to reinforce the Liao army of the two routes, he also adopted Yu Yue's suggestion that he should send Xi Zuo into the Ming Dynasty and the Zhou State to rebel. After two years of snare and rebellion, Yelu Dusha found that the officialdom of the Ming State was far from being comparable to that of the Zhou State, especially after the Jinling Rebellion. Jerodushah couldn't find a chance to do it himself.
At this time, Liu Chengzhi, a lucky official of the ministry, entered Yelu Dusha's field of vision, and the choice of Liu Chengzhi was the result of Yelu Dusha's repeated considerations. Liu Chengzhi was born in a famous family, and although the Liu family did not have a corresponding heavyweight after Liu Renzhen's death, the roots of the Liu family were still undamaged. The two Tang brothers of Liu Chengzhi, a special person. That is, Liu Renzhen's two sons, one is the captain of the Imperial Forest Military Academy, the other is the young superintendent of the army, and many of the children of the clan are officials in various states and counties of the Ming Kingdom.
The reason why he didn't choose Rengui and Chong Zhi brothers was because Liu Rengui inherited his father's upright character. He also has the position of captain of the Royal Forest, and wants to open a gap from him. Extremely difficult; However, Liu Chongzhi is a suave and suave person, who fireworks all day long, has no ambitions, and lacks the prestige to call on the Liu clan, so Yelu Dusha chose Liu Chengzhi as the first target of rebellion.
And the tool of the rebellion, Yu Guilan, this cheap daughter picked up for nothing, was just born to a local Han woman that Yelu Dusha snatched in Cangzhou that year, the woman was a local girl surnamed Yu, who was playing on the street at the time, and was taken captive by Yelu Dusha, after Yelu Dusha got tired of playing, he didn't kill her, but just put her back, so many years, Yelu Dusha didn't even know that he had such a daughter.
Until Yu Guilan's mother wrote to inform her before her death, at this time, Yu Guilan was eighteen years old. Yelu Dusha had no intention of recognizing this relative, but he happened to meet the emperor who ordered him to lead the Ming Kingdom to do something detailed, so Yelu Dusha recognized this cheap daughter and brought it to Jinling of the Ming Kingdom.
After setting Liu Chengzhi as the target, Yu Guilan became a tool for Yelu Du Sha to oppose Liu Chengzhi, and after months of preparation, the house slave around Ye Lu Du Sha became Yu Guilan's "grandfather".
Liu Chengzhi was full of confusion, and according to the guidance of Yu Guilan's "grandfather", the moment he came to this small courtyard for the first time, he was doomed to the tragedy of Liu Chengzhi's life.
Yu Guilan was indeed in this small courtyard, and she did not suffer any crimes, but what shocked Liu Chengzhi was that the existence of Yelu Dusha, Ming and Liao were engaged in a tragic war, and at this time, a Liao person was in Jinling, Ming Kingdom, what was going on, Liu Chengzhi instantly understood in his heart. And the appearance of Yu Guilan and the fact that Yelu Dusha is his biological father made Liu Chengzhi's heart fall into the abyss.
Liu Chengzhi knew that unless he could abandon Yu Guilan, he would go to hell from now on and never return.
But how can he abandon Yu Guilan?
When Yelu Dusha smiled proudly, and Liu Chengzhi used his identity as a student of Jinling Academy to incite the students to besiege the post house, Liu Chengzhi would rather that he was dead at this time, but Liu Chengzhi still couldn't give up his love for Guilan after all.
"Whether she is Han or Khitan, I love her, even if this love will break my bones." The moment Liu Chengzhi saw that Yu Guilan was still alive, he vowed to take her out of this small courtyard.
Liu Chengzhi followed Yelu Dusha's request like a walking corpse, and led the students and the people into a premeditated trap step by step, resulting in two deaths and one injury, and Zhang Zhao, the envoy of the Zhou State, was killed.
It also made the alliance between Ming and Zhou on the verge of rupture.
After Liu Chengzhi finished doing these things, he thought that Yelu Dusha would let him take Yu Guilan away as promised, but now it seems that it is just his wishful thinking, this demon will never let Guilan return to his side if he does not squeeze his own value. And he couldn't resist, so he could only submit to him.
Zhang Zhao's killing made Liu Chengzhi very happy, from Yelu Dusha's words, Liu Chengzhi had already guessed that Zhang Zhao of Zhou State should have also been rebelled by the Liao, and now he was accidentally beheaded, which made Liu Chengzhi's heart extremely comfortable. Perhaps, Liu Chengzhi subconsciously has a desire to die with this group of demons.
Now, Yelu Dusha asked him to seek firearms, which made Liu Chengzhi very worried, Liu Chengzhi didn't know where Yelu Dusha would use firearms, if the emperor was in danger, then Liu Chengzhi would rather die ten thousand times than get firearms for Yelu Dusha, at this moment, Liu Chengzhi still thinks that he is a protégé of the Son of Heaven, and Baili Wuji is still his mentor in his mind.
Liu Chengzhi knew that it was obvious that such a small amount of firearms, Yelu Dusha could only be used against important people, and in Jinling Mansion, the most important person was the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, Baili Wuji.......
