Chi Ge Lao looked at Song Qiyun in front of him, and suddenly saw his little son who had just been rescued and had a red face due to illness.

No matter how hard-hearted a person is, when he sees such a helpless and fragile child, he will have compassion.

Chi Ge Lao thought he was kind and compassionate, plus because of some unspeakable past, he was even more soft-hearted towards children, plus the small figure curled up on the big bed, as if he saw the child who had died innocently because of his paranoia and his obsession, so he didn't know what was going on at that time, so he walked into the room and held the hot child in his arms.

Since then, the fate of the two of them, who have no blood relationship, has been closely linked.

Elder Chi Ge came out of his memories, looked at the three people in front of him, and nodded slowly.

"Your Highness is right, I knew it from the beginning, but I didn't tell Xiao Hong. Later, Xiaohong and his sister recognized each other, which I didn't expect, and I thought that no one would ever know about this matter. ”

"As long as anything happens, it won't go unnoticed, not to mention that it's still related to blood, and it's impossible to cover it up so easily." Shen Cha glanced at Chi Ge Lao lightly, "However, how did you know Chi Hong's identity?" Doesn't it mean that after he recovered from his illness, he was like a different person, and he didn't remember his own background at all, and he didn't remember anything that happened before? ”

"That's the case, and I didn't know it from his mouth." Chi Ge Lao sighed heavily, "We interrogated the little leaders of those traffickers, and they said that they had been eyeing a few children of the Yancheng merchant Jia family early on, and Xiao Hong's family was one of them, and he originally wanted to kidnap his sister, but he found that there were too many guards around his sister, and they were too powerful, so they shifted the target to Xiao Hong. ”

"Didn't they inquire about each other's details before they abducted them?" Song Qiyun frowned slightly, "Before Mrs. Teng got married, the family was not easy to mess with, right?" He looked at Shen Cha, "Or did she already have a family appointment at that time?" ”

"Even if she didn't book a family affair, she was a little famous in the Tantai family. She is close friends with Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Tangtai, otherwise, things will not develop so smoothly later, and she will not marry her daughter to Yunren. Shen Cha sighed and looked at Elder Chi Ge, "As for what you said, whether the traffickers will find out the details before abducting people, it will definitely be, but they won't probe so much, they just need to know that the family is rich, the little young master is very smart, and if he is abducted, he may sell it for a high price, these are enough." ”

"Huh?" Song Qiyun didn't understand very much, "How can it be enough?" Aren't they afraid that these high-ranking families who have been abducted will settle accounts with them? ”

"This must not be afraid, human traffickers are more rampant, usually in the chaotic border passes, such as Yancheng, where relatively gentle places, human traffickers do not go often, usually just turn a wave and change places." Seeing that Song Qiyun still didn't understand much, Shen Cha smiled and explained, "To put it more clearly, they kidnapped people in Yancheng, were hated by the high-ranking families in Yancheng, and were wanted by the Yancheng government, so it won't have any impact on them." As long as they leave the boundary under the jurisdiction of Yancheng, they are safe, which is the main reason why they must take advantage of the fact that there is no curfew at the Lantern Festival and directly take the abducted children out of the city overnight. No matter how much money they can make from this transaction, they will not appear on the territory of Yancheng for years, or even decades, in the future. ”

"This is ......" After listening to Shen Cha's explanation, Song Qiyun finally understood, "They are ready to do a vote and never come back?" There's really no need to probe too many details, and you don't have to care if the other party will settle accounts with them. He looked at Chi Ge Lao, "However, according to this, they shouldn't be very clear about Chi Hong's origins, so how did Ge Lao learn about Chi Hong's true background through human traffickers?" ”

"There's a mark on Xiao Hong's arm, you should all have seen it." Chi Ge Lao looked at Shen Cha and looked at Shen Haolin, "That mark, Lord Zhen said it was strange, but I had never seen it, and I really didn't know it at the time, and I didn't know why someone would tattoo such a pattern on a child's arm." But one of the trafficker leaders admitted to having seen the mark, and knew it belonged to a mysterious family with the surname Shantai. ”

"How did he know?"

"That person's grandfather used to be one of the members of the Shantai family, in fact, to say that he was a member is also to promote him, that is, a handyman, because his hands and feet were not clean, he was kicked out of the main family, and then he lost his livelihood, so he did this immoral business. Although he was a handyman, he also knew a little bit about it, and his grandfather was always dissatisfied with the former head of the family, and until he died, he asked his children and grandchildren for a chance to avenge him. When that person was in Yancheng, he accidentally saw the mark on Xiao Hong's arm, remembered some of the past things that his grandfather had told him, and decided to attack this child, so that the Tantai family could also experience the pain of losing their loved ones. But he didn't know that the child he abducted was not a child of his own family, but a child of his family. Chi Ge Lao looked at Shen Cha, "Until he asked the question, he didn't know that he had actually found the wrong person for revenge." ”

"Since Elder Ge knows Chi Hong's background, why don't you send the child back to Yancheng and his sister's side?" Shen Cha looked at him expressionlessly, "You should know that his sister has been looking for him all along." ”

"I know, but I can't send the child back." Chi Ge Lao sighed, "Don't misunderstand, general, if you can send it back, it will definitely be sent back, the main reason is that Xiao Hong is not happy, maybe because he is well and when he opens his eyes, the first thing he sees is me, and he recognizes me, except for me, including Lord Zhen, he can't get close to him, once someone approaches, he is like a frightened little beast." So, only I can take him home. ”

"When Mrs. Teng came to Xijing to see him in person to confirm whether he was her younger brother, Elder Ge also knew, right?"

"Nope!" Chi Ge Lao shook his head, "She didn't come in person, she just wrote a trustee to me, thank me for taking care of Xiao Hong, if I need it in the future, she will help me solve some problems." ”

After speaking, he raised his head and saw the sneers on the faces of the three people in front of him, only to realize what he had said, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"Elder Chige, do you know what your name is?" Song Qiyun stood up, walked in front of Chi Ge Lao, and snorted coldly, "You don't call yourself a fool, on the surface, you don't care about Chi Hong's every move, but in fact, they are inextricably linked to you, right?" Can this king infer from this, Chi Hongxing assassinated Uncle Ning, you also have a share! ”
