Chapter 0123: Nameless Fire
"Mother, I heard what Aunt Bihe said just now, this person named Xiaozhou seems to have something to do with you, but according to Qi'er's thoughts, although this person and Aunt Bihe used to be old acquaintances, after all, several years have passed, and what happened in this is unknown to you and Aunt Bihe."
When Mo Qi said this, he looked at Nineteen, who was full of obscurity at the moment, and then continued: "So Qi'er suggests that for the time being, he should be imprisoned with that person first, and after you have figured out everything, it is not too late to release him!" ”
Hearing this, Gu Youlan looked at Bai Ze, Dongfang Luo and the others, and saw that there were no objections from several people, and then looked sideways at Nineteen and asked coldly, "Should I call you Xiaozhou, or Nineteen?" ”
Nineteen heard this, and instantly felt a little surprised, and then replied with relief: "Princess, when the slave first entered the Yuan Mansion, the lord once gave the slave the name Yuan Boat, Ming is the master's scholar, and secretly trained me to be a secret guard, when the young lady took Bihe and Cailian into the palace, the master once asked me to secretly protect the young lady. ”
"Later, Miss was killed in the fire, and you were sent to the Imperial Mausoleum in the western suburbs when you were three years old, and the lord learned that Miss was killed and related to Wan Guifei, in order to investigate the murder of Miss that year, so the slave was secretly placed in Prime Minister Wan's mansion and became a secret guard, because the ranking was nineteen, so it got this name."
"Although the slave has been the secret guard of Prime Minister Wan in the past ten years, he has always been concerned about the master who once cultivated himself as his own son, so he has been secretly contacting the master, and telling all the collected information one by one, if the princess thinks that what the slave said still needs to be considered, then the slave is willing to be imprisoned by you, and wait for you to investigate the truth of the matter with peace of mind!"
Hearing this, Gu Youlan was just about to ask, when she saw Nineteen kneeling on the ground with a "poof", kowtowed three times, and then said again: "Princess, the slave is not afraid of being imprisoned by you, but can you contact the master first and let the old man know that you are still alive?" In the past ten years, the master has not only suffered the pain of losing his daughter, but also hated himself because of your attributeless spiritual root, which led to the later untimely death. ”
"The old man is almost old, and there is no cultivation for the body, and now the Yuan family's bloodline is withering, his old man is very pitiful, every time the slave quietly returns home, he can always see his old man alone touching the portrait of the old lady and the young lady crying alone......"
Speaking of this, Nineteen trembled and burst into tears, "Princess, every time the slave sees the master crying, the slave's heart hurts so much, woo woo woo ......"
Hearing Nineteen's talk of this, Bihe couldn't cry anymore, Dongfang Luo's eyes turned red, and Gu Youlan was also trembling a little in pain.
Sumeru, Dongfang Luo broke the silence for a while, "Lan'er, listening to what this Xiaozhou said, it can be regarded as true and reasonable, but now the mine outside has collapsed, Wu Tianhao can't find him, and he will definitely be suspicious, so you don't need to detain him, just let him stay here with Bai Lin and Mo Qi for the time being!" ”
Hearing what Shigong said, Gu Youlan exhaled lightly, nodded, and then looked at Nineteen and said softly: "Xiaozhou, you and Emperor Yuan, well, what is the contact between my grandfather, and where is his old man settled now?" ”
Hearing this, Nineteen wiped his face with his sleeve and hurriedly replied: "Two years ago, his old man still lived in the original mansion, and later after the current prince was decreed as the crown prince, the emperor wrote to the emperor that the feng shui of the Yuan Mansion is a portrayal of the auspicious dragon lying down, the lord is no longer in the position of the emperor, and should no longer enjoy the blessings of the heavenly family, if he still lives there, not only is there a danger to the rivers and mountains of the hundred miles, but also does not match the identity, so the night after getting the emperor's permission, the lord was driven out of the Yuan Mansion!" ”
"What? It's Baili Xuanyi again! How dare he! Hearing this, Gu Youlan stood up with a "pout", and instantly burst into anger, "Baili Xuanyi, your mother killed my mother, your grandfather occupied my territory, you not only harmed me three times and twice, but also drove my grandfather out of the mansion, this kind of blood feud, if I tolerate it again, I won't call it Baili Youlan!" ”
Thinking of this, Gu Youlan hurriedly turned her head to look at Bai Ze and Philip and said, "Mo, you immediately contact Bai Yu who is outside, and ask him to quickly collect all the evidence of the current crown prince Baili Xuanyi, be sure to be detailed and fast!" ”
"Then tell Hongsheng and let her quickly find all the property and economic transactions in the prince's name, I want first-hand information!"
"Xiao Fei, you quickly arrange for Kasuga and the others to return to Beijing as soon as possible and secretly investigate all the movements of the crown prince and his henchmen! Gather all the evidence, and listen to my instructions! ”
Hearing this, Philip hurriedly took the order and left with a solemn face. Bai Ze immediately transmitted the sound to Bai Yu and Suzaku.
Sumeru, seeing that Gu Youlan had recovered from her thoughts, Dongfang Luo coughed lightly, and said with a solemn face: "Lan'er, look at the arrangement you made just now, do you want to ......?"
"Master, just as you think!" Seeing the solemnity of Dongfangluo's face, Gu Youlan nodded, her eyes revealing awe.
"Do you have a successor? Do you have a plan for the future? Dongfang Luo pondered for a moment and then continued to ask.
"Don't worry, Master, I never fight unprepared battles!"
Hearing the words of their old lady and master who seemed to be playing dumb riddles, several elders were instantly disorganized.
"Father, what are you telling your master? How do you listen to me and I'm confused? After the Seventh Elder looked around at everyone, he finally opened his mouth in curiosity.
"Talk between adults, children don't inquire!" Hearing this, Dongfang Luo suddenly said angrily.
Hearing his father's words at first, the seventh elder instantly "snorted", he didn't catch his breath and almost didn't hold his breath, and hurriedly rubbed his chest and smoothed his breath, no longer saying more, but the stuffiness in his chest was never smoothed, and after a while, everyone's ears heard his hiccups one after another.
Seeing that his son was so useless, Dongfang Luo immediately frowned, and was just about to reprimand him again, when he heard Gu Youlan's voice coming.
"Xiaozhou, just now you said that my grandfather was driven out of the Yuan Mansion by the crown prince, so he is still in the capital?"
"Princess, the lord left the capital two years ago, and now lives in the Wuming Temple in the southern suburbs of the capital!"
Hearing Nineteen's words, Dongfang Luo's brows that had just been flat furrowed again, "Xiaozhou, I remember that the patriarch once had a set of six-entry ancestral mansions in the southern suburbs of the capital!" Why didn't he go back to the old mansion and go to the temple? Could it be that he is a monk? ”
Hearing this, before Nineteen could start speaking, tears instantly flowed down again, "Two years ago, after the lord was driven out of the Yuan Mansion by the prince, he returned to the ancestral house first, but for some reason, just a month after the lord returned to the ancestral mansion, suddenly the old mansion caught fire, and the fire burned for a day and a night, and finally burned all the mansions!" ”
"The lord had no place to live overnight, so he was impatient, so he took refuge in the abbot of Wuming Temple in the southern suburbs, and this stay was two years!" Nineteen said that, he immediately covered his face, and began to cry bitterly.
"Haha, nameless fire, this fire is really timely, my grandfather doesn't go back to the old house, this fire doesn't burn, just go back and this fire burns, it's really a heavenly wish, I just don't know whose heaven is fulfilled, whose wish is fulfilled!" Hearing this, Gu Youlan sneered, and suddenly stood up with a slap on the table, screaming angrily.
"Yes, this Prime Minister's family is really too deceitful! If he continues to be arrogant, I don't know how many people will be bullied by him! Hearing Gu Youlan's words, Dongfang Luo was also instantly furious.
Sumeru, Gu Youlan glanced at Nineteen, who was still kneeling on the ground and crying, hurriedly flicked his waist and helped him up, and then fixed his eyes and said: "Xiaozhou, I will arrange the affairs of my grandfather, you have worked hard outside these years, you will rest here for a while these days, and when I need you, I will take you out!" ”
Hearing this, Nineteen wiped his tears and nodded heavily.
After a while, Gu Youlan turned to look at Dongfang Luo, and suddenly knelt down on one knee and said, "Master, can Lan'er ask you for something?" ”
"Oh, you kid, what are you doing here? What else do you want to ask for or not with your master, if you have something to say, won't it be over if you directly command? Seeing Gu Youlan suddenly make this big gift, Dongfang Luo immediately pulled her up with a displeased face, and whispered anger.
"Master, I want Qingying to take my grandfather back instead of me, can you see it?" Gu Youlan, who was pulled up by Dongfang Luo, said with tears in her eyes.
"You want Kiyokage to pick up the patriarch? This can't be done, I'll let him protect you closely, so let the boss and Shuo'er go! Anyway, without waiting for Gu Youlan to make any reply, Dongfang Luo was going to arrange it immediately, and at this moment, I saw Bihe pulling Zhou Jie to stand up.
"Princess, to pick up the master, let me go with Zhou Jie, one is that I am familiar with the master, and the other is that I am also fast, now the sky is just dawning outside, at my current speed, before lunch, I will be able to bring the master back!"
Hearing Bihe's words, Gu Youlan nodded after a moment of contemplation, and then said softly: "Bihe, although the southern suburbs are not very far from the manor, after all, his grandfather is old, and he has no cultivation, when you receive him back, be sure to give him more clothes for the old man, don't let him suffer from the cold." ”
Hearing the metaphor in the princess's words, Bihe's eyes instantly turned red, choked and nodded, and then pulled Zhou Jie to dodge away.
Seeing that Lan'er had arranged all the tricky things at the moment, Dongfang Luo nodded with relief, and was just about to step forward to comfort her, who was still red-eyed, when he suddenly saw the Seventh Elder with a leisurely face, sitting there with Erlang's legs dangling wantonly, and his old face drooped in an instant.
"Seventh, you're very idle, aren't you? Now that it's dawn outside, what are you doing sitting here? Have you forgotten all the things that your father had arranged for you? ”
"Huh?" At this time, the Seventh Elder, who was thinking about what to eat for breakfast, suddenly heard his father's reprimand, and his mind was instantly dizzy, "No, I haven't forgotten, Father, haven't you had breakfast yet?" ”
"Eat, eat! You know how to eat with all your head, are you a pig? There are so many things waiting to be done now, if you are not in a hurry, you don't say anything, you want to eat all day long, why don't you get out of here quickly! If things don't work out, don't come back! ”
