Liu Ziqi and Gu Yun followed the old man's narration, the expressions on their faces changed suddenly, and their hearts were raised.

"I went to Meng Qingyun's house to eat, and that little girl is actually his daughter......" The old man closed his eyes and said with trembling lips, "That child was later mistaken by those people for the little county lord and suffered." ”

Meng Qingyun hid in the stable with the little county lord with him, and listened to those people shouting, "Found it!" ”

Listening to the cry of his little girl, he took advantage of the chaos and left the princess's mansion with the little county lord to drill the dog hole.

It was difficult for Xu Si to forget the expression on Meng Qingyun's face at that time, he admired Meng Qingyun.

exchanging the life of his own child for the life of the little county lord sounds righteous, but in fact it is tantamount to heartache.

After fleeing the capital for many years, Xu Si originally planned to bring these things into the coffin until he died, but he was not as good as Meng Qingyun, and now for the sake of his young grandson, he had to bend his waist for five buckets of rice.

From Xu Si's words, it was confirmed that the little girl Meng Qingyun took away from the princess's mansion was Su Jian, but Liu Ziqi had some mixed feelings in his heart, and he was grateful to Meng Qingyun for exchanging his daughter's life for Su Jian's life.

Liu Ziqi gave Xu Si a silver ticket and instructed his subordinates to take their grandfather and grandson down to dinner, and then send them out of the house.

Gu Yun looked at the look on Liu Ziqi's face, and said thoughtfully, "According to what Xu Si said, Liu Sanniang should be lying, and Yu Jiao is undoubtedly Xiao Sujian." ”

The sound of autumn insects chirping came from the unknown corner of the hall, the wick of the candle on the table swayed lightly, and the autumn night became colder and colder, Liu Ziqi sat quietly for a long time, and the immature face of Xiao Sujian in his mind slowly merged with Yu Jiao's face.

"Do you want to go back to Qingzhou?" After a long silence, Gu Yun asked.

Liu Ziqi shook his head, "No, as long as you know that Su Jian is still alive, it's enough." ”

It's safer to stay in a small place.

He and Gu Yun are too dazzling, if they are targeted by someone with a heart, it will hurt Yu Jiao.

She doesn't remember the things she used to do, and she lives like that now...... Pretty good. Liu Ziqi said again.

Gu Yun understood the meaning of his words, and if he didn't remember those hatreds and pains, it was equivalent to getting rid of the shackles, but he could live a relaxed and unrestrained life.

It's just that Yu Jiao has such a noble status, she should be pampered and pampered, but she is tired and running around every day in a small village like the countryside.

It's not bad to be an ordinary person, but recognizing them is too deeply involved, but it is full of dangers.

"Even if I can't recognize each other, I won't let her be bullied again." Gu Yun thought of the Shao family's desire to buy grain reported by Steward Zhou, and said in a deep voice, "Protect her openly and honestly in my identity, at most cause a few criticisms, as long as she doesn't return to the capital, even if she turns the sky upside down in Qingzhou, it doesn't matter." ”

When Liu Ziqi heard this, a wry smile tugged at the corner of his lips, she is a plain note, his sister, he also wants to spoil her openly and give her everything that is best in the world, but her identity is inconvenient, Gu Yun can say this kind of thing to an outsider, but he can't.

"Someone in the court has already impeached you for bullying people with power in Tanzhou, obstructing the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Industry to repair the dam and build the embankment, robbing the official silver, and detaining Zhou Fang by private execution, and we will leave for Beijing tomorrow." Liu Ziqi put away his chaotic thoughts and said to Gu Yun, "The Danzhou flood discharge has been effective, and you and I can no longer interfere in the disaster relief. ”

Gu Yun snorted coldly, "Let's let them bite, I want to see who is so eager to jump out!" ”

Zhou Fang's greed for ink and official silver must not be done by one person, the jackals, tigers and leopards involved behind this wanted to show his guilt in front of Emperor Ming Zheng before he returned to Beijing, and convicted him in one fell swoop.

Gu Yun doesn't care too much about these, although Emperor Ming Zheng has become more and more mediocre in recent years, ignoring the government and politics, he has been working hard to maintain the delicate balance between the various forces in the court.

The Gu family has military power in hand, and they have the skills of the dragon back then, which is also the reason why Emperor Ming Zheng is particularly favored by him on the surface.

Gu Yun figured this out a long time ago, although he was arrogant, he was not really simple-minded, stupid and dull.

Liu Ziqi stood up and reminded, "The dredging treasury silver, the saint originally wanted to use it to build a Taoist temple, and was persuaded by Cheng Ying to allocate it, the saint was a little unwilling, but this silver was greedy, this case may change the situation in the imperial court, we still have to go back to Beijing as soon as possible to prepare." ”

Gu Yun stood up with him, "Then leave for Beijing tomorrow?" ”

Liu Ziqi nodded, "Let's go and rest earlier." ”

Seeing him walking outside, Gu Yun couldn't help but ask again, "Do you want to take a detour to Qingzhou and take a look at Xiao Sujian again?" ”

Liu Ziqi's figure paused slightly, "No, don't mention the name Su Jian in the future, Su Jian is no longer in this world." ”

Let her use the name Yu Jiao to live safely in this capacity, as long as she is safe and healthy.

Watching Liu Ziqi leave, Gu Yun sighed softly, thinking of Su Jian pulling the hem of his clothes when he was a child, calling him Brother Huaiyi softly, and thinking that he treated her like that in the Yang family in Qingzhou.

Gu Yun slowly clenched his fists, his starry eyes were extremely firm in the dim candlelight, no matter what, he would never let Xiao Su Jian ...... Yu Jiao suffered again.

Even if she wants, he can marry her like a fairy tale who didn't understand the world when he was a child, let her be Mrs. Hou, and give her the honor she deserves.
