Guo Biao returned to Jingnan and occupied the identity of his younger brother Guo Cheng, and later found He Fangniang.

These are most likely pre-arranged things.

Su Ruan could see that Guo Biao might have a little sincerity towards He Fangniang, but this sincerity may not be enough to resist his loyalty to some people, that is, what he said before was not credible.

At least, not all of them.

Qi Wenfu listened to Su Ruan's whispered words, and his heart was quite agreeable, and he said:

"We have speculated before that during the natural disaster in Jingnan, someone deliberately delayed the disaster relief of the imperial court, and openly embezzled the disaster relief silver, but secretly took the opportunity to collect refugees, so as to avoid the imperial court secretly stationing troops."

"Guo Biao's experience is very consistent, and he is young and strong, and he has kung fu, his parents died early, and his brothers are not harmonious, so he is an excellent recruit."

"If you are really under your command, it will not be difficult to rise quickly."

After Guo Biao left Jingnan, if it was really as they thought, he was taken in into "Zhangning" along with the previous batch of refugees and became part of the number of soldiers.

Now all of this can be explained.

He and Su Ruan single-handedly brought down the Bo family and the second prince, cut off the man's pretense of pushing in front of people, and arrested the father and son of the Yue family, and even involved the truth about the Zhangning soldiers.

The man wanted their lives, and it was normal.

In the distance, the water was pitch black, the waves were rolling and tumbling, and only a few swaying boats could be faintly seen under the moonlight, and the people on board had already disappeared into the water.

Qi Wenfu was silent for a moment before he suddenly said: "Ruan Ruan, that Tao Xiucai, is it the person you have been tracking down who hid behind the Bo family, and in the name of the second prince, pretended to be in Zhangning's soldiers and even related to your father's death?" ”

Su Ruan looked up at him fiercely, his gaze condensed.

Qi Wenfu looked at her sideways and said: "You yourself may not have noticed that since you entered Beijing, almost all of the things you care about, what you have investigated, and what you have been thinking about are almost all people related to the old Jingnan case. ”

"After the fall of the Bo family, the second prince was imprisoned, and everyone felt that Jing Nan's case was over, but you were always panicked and uneasy, as if you knew what other dangers were hidden behind this."

"The father and son of the Yue family have deceived the Xie family for many years and have never been noticed, but you arrested them at a glance, and the matter of Zhangning's troops was also the first thing you noticed the abnormality."

Qi Wenfu said slowly,

"I also care about the people behind the Bo family, and even Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty and many people in the court want to find out, but Ruan Ruan, you seem to care more than us."

"It's like ......"

"You know that the presence of that man will destroy the peace you want, that he will harm everything you care about, even destroy everything you have tried to shelter under your wings, so you want to eradicate him in advance to prevent future troubles?"

Su Ruan's heart stagnated for a moment.

The question of the person in front of her was so sudden that it suddenly buzzed in her mind for a moment.

"Fourth Brother ......"

Su Ruan opened her mouth, and when she wanted to say something, she felt that her eyes were dark, and suddenly a pair of big hands covered her eyebrows and eyes, covering all her sight and plunging her into darkness.

"Don't lie to me."

Qi Wenfu covered her eyes and covered her black eyes before he whispered,

"I have no intention of probing your secrets, and if you don't want to say some things, I won't force them, but Ruan Ruan, concealing is more tiring than trusting, and one person is burdened with too much, why don't you ask me to help you?"

"I've never been attached to anything before, and from now on I'll only be attached to you."

"You don't have to be afraid that I will go against you, as long as you stay in Dachen and stay in Jingzhong, I will never turn to others, or even assist in the allegiance of anyone, to ruin the peace you want to work so hard to maintain."

"Unless one day, you want to destroy it with your own hands."

After Su Ruan's eyes were blindfolded, it was pitch black in front of him.

She couldn't see anything, she could only feel the warmth in her eyes, and the unhurried voice in her ears, but extra firm when the water was rushing.

She heard the meaning of Qi Wenfu's words, and she didn't expect that she had asked him casually, but he still remembered it.

Su Ruan's heart, which had been floating and broken, suddenly sank, and after his eyelashes trembled slightly, he spoke: "But oaths are the most untrustworthy thing. ”

"If you have not believed it, how can you know that you are not trustworthy?"

Qi Wenfu felt the itch in his palm, and suddenly took his hand down and looked at her.

Su Ruan looked at him quietly for a long time, and said to him: "Then if I say that Da Chen will separate the north and the south in less than ten years, and you betray the Chen Dynasty and enter the new dynasty, with the Nanhe River as the boundary, Chen Bing is outside, and assist the new monarch to confront the Northern Chen, do you believe it?" ”

Qi Wenfu's expression was full of astonishment.

He thought about it a lot and guessed a lot, but he didn't expect Su Ruan to say this.

Su Ruan saw the stunned look on his face, pursed his lips tightly and was about to say that she was talking nonsense, but he saw Qi Wenfu's face stunned.

He frowned as if he was extremely serious and thought carefully for a long time, then hesitated to speak, "What you said is true?" ”

Su Ruan only thought that he suspected her nonsense, and his lips hooked up with a sneer: "You don't believe it? ”

"I believe it."

Qi Wenfu frowned and said, "I'm just thinking, with my current situation, why would I put the future of the DPRK and the central government into the command of a chaotic minister and thief, and waste that effort to establish a new dynasty." ”

Although assisting the new monarch has immortal merits, there are many people who can unload the mill and kill the donkey and die well.

If it is difficult in the court, he will not be able to survive, and he may consider switching to the new monarch to seek a way to live, but now that the Qi family is safe, and the entire Qi family is based in Dachen, why would he give up everything in the court and turn to others?

Qi Wenfu looked at Su Ruan and asked, "So you asked me before if I would turn my back on the Yuwen royal family and join others, is this because of this?" ”

Su Ruan hummed.

"What was the situation between the DPRK and China when Dachen split?"

Qi Wenfu didn't laugh at Su Ruan's wild words, didn't laugh at her nonsense and whimsy, but asked very seriously.

Su Ruan's expectations didn't come, and seeing that Qi Wenfu actually discussed the situation of the previous life with her very seriously, she couldn't help but look at him and wondered, "Do you believe me?" ”

Qi Wenfu raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you believe it?" ”

Su Ruan: "...... Don't you think what I'm saying is too bizarre? ”

"Although the situation in the DPRK is not stable, Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty is alive, the crown prince has the right to defend the ministers, and most of the government and military power are in the hands of the royal family, don't you think what I said is unrealistic?"

Qi Wenfu thought for a while and said seriously: "Although it is a little bizarre, it is not impossible to think about it carefully according to what you said, and some things do have signs." ”
