CHAPTER XV
Jinling is a good place, the people are quite rich, in the stage of pursuing spiritual life, and it is Gu Nanye's hometown, starting from here, it is a good choice.
After investigating the market, Qu Muge felt that the plan was feasible, so he asked Xu Baoru: "Brother Xu, can you tell me the story of your war?" Is there any very twisty or thrilling one? I want to hear how powerful the general really is in battle! ”
Xu Baoru said proudly: "That's a lot, when the general first arrived in the Xiling Army, he was young and underqualified, no one listened to or believed what he said, almost every time the general turned the tide, from the defeat of the army to outwitting the head of the enemy army, not to mention how wise and powerful!" ”
The two arrived at Qifang Pavilion in advance, and before the Zhao family came, they asked for a private room and told the story of the Western Front.
Qu Muge listened carefully, and gradually became fascinated, until the Zhao sisters came, she was still a little unsatisfied.
Zhao Huiyuan was a little scared when she saw Qu Muge accompanying Xu Baoru beside her, and asked, "Let's have a light meal between our sisters, can you invite this strong man to go outside to avoid it?" ”
Zhao Huiyuan and Zhao Huijuan are official ladies after all, and Xu Bao should avoid it, so he withdrew.
Qu Muge said for Xu Baoru: "You don't have to be afraid of him, Brother Xu is very good." ”
Miss Zhao Er said quickly: "He broke my little uncle's hand last time, and he is still hanging his arm!" ”
Qu Muge smiled and didn't speak.
Miss Zhao remembered today's business, took the initiative to put down the shelf, and politely ordered to entertain Qu Muge.
"The last time I was at my house, it was me who was not good, and when I was in the living room, I was afraid that my father would scold me, thinking that you were a guest, and my father would not blame you, so he put the blame on you. For this, my father and mother severely punished my sister and me, not only confining them down, but also beating them. For my sister's sake, which has been punished and repented, I hope you will forgive us. Miss Zhao said with tears in her eyes.
Qu Muge didn't expect Miss Zhao to apologize so formally, she was a person who was easily embarrassed and embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, in fact, the general didn't get angry or punish me, this matter is over, I don't blame you." ”
Miss Zhao Er asked, "Is General Gu really not embarrassed you?" He scared me to death when he asked the soldiers to drag you down, and I thought you would die. ”
Qu Muge said helplessly: "You misunderstood the general. ”
Miss Zhao glanced at her sister and said in a low voice, "Actually, we asked you out today, and there is one more thing." ”
Qu Muge had a slightly bad premonition in her heart, and sure enough, she saw Miss Zhao open the door and lead Chen Heng in.
Qu Muge stood up from his seat and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Chen Heng still had one hand left, and he looked at Qu Muge with an anxious and worried expression.
"Miss Ye, I have something very important to tell you, you listen to me first!"
The window in the room was open, and the voices of people on the street outside came in, which made Qu Muge feel a little relieved.
They don't dare to do anything excessive in a restaurant on the street.
Seeing that Qu Muge didn't speak, Chen Heng walked up to Qu Muge and sat down, and said, "Miss Ye, I want to tell you something important, I hope you are mentally prepared, don't be too shocked, don't be too sad, you must be strong." ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Qu Muge was a little farther away from him.
Chen Heng sighed and said, "Ever since I saw the girl in the Zhao Mansion, I have never forgotten the girl. I asked my sister to go to Mrs. Gu, hoping to have a deep friendship with you and the Ye family, but I was refused. I had no choice but to find some connections and ask you around, but I was asked to find out...... Your family members have all been killed by Gu Nanye! The seventeen members of the four families of Hongye Village, Cao, Li, and Zeng were all arrested and killed by Gu Nanye in the name of harboring the enemy! ”
Qu Muge was shocked, with a very real look of surprise on his face.
She didn't know that Gu Nanye had killed those people in Red Leaf Village.
At first, when Liu Jing gave her her household registration, he only said that she had nothing to do with the Ye family, but Qu Muge didn't expect it to be such a way to break away.
Later, Gu Nanye mentioned to her that Ye Dian was let go by Liu Jing, and now that I think about it, Ye Dian should be a member of the Ye family, Ye Taohua's father scolded her?
Chen Heng was speechless when he saw her in shock, and reached out to shake her hand: "Miss Ye, don't be afraid!" Gu Nanye coveted your beauty, deceived you, and killed all the insiders, such a crazy person is really punished by everyone! I'll definitely help you escape from him, I'm already thinking of a way, you, you wait for me for a while......"
Qu Muge shook off Chen Heng's hand in disgust, stayed away from him, and said, "You misunderstood." It was I who was willing to stay in the Gu family, and General Gu only killed those who should be killed, if those seventeen people were killed by him, it meant that they really deserved to die. ”
Recalling that Ye Taohua in the dream was tortured by her family and husband's family in every way and became a money-making tool, Qu Muge felt that these people were so disgusting that they should be killed!
Chen Heng and the Zhao sisters were shocked by Qu Muge's words.
Chen Heng stammered and said, "That's, that's your family......"
Qu Muge smiled silently: "Family? They don't deserve it! ”
With that, she opened the door and walked out.
She found Xu Baoru under Qi Fang's attic, wrinkled her brows and said, "Brother Xu, I have an urgent matter to find the general, do you know where he is now?" ”
Xu Baoru was a little surprised, but thinking that she had caught Liu Jing, a traitor, last time she said that she was in a hurry to find the general, she didn't dare to ignore her words.
He nodded and led her towards the Gu Mansion.
Jinling Gu Zhai, Qu Muge came for the first time.
In the night, she couldn't see the appearance of this huge mansion clearly, but the empty and dark courtyard made her feel endlessly lonely.
"Why can't you see people?" Qu Muge asked anxiously.
Xu Baoru said: "The general borrowed the matter of Yan Niang and said that he would investigate the Gu Mansion's Qiu Qiong spies, and sent all the mansion away, leaving only a few people in the inner courtyard to take care of Master Gu's body. ”
"Old Master Gu is sick?"
Xu Baoru nodded and said, "The burn was not treated in time, it worsened, and now I can't get out of bed." ”
The last time Qu Muge scalded Master Gu with water, Gu Nanye specially brought her scalding medicine, but Master Gu's injuries worsened because he was not treated in time, and she felt that there were other internal reasons.
She didn't care, though.
She met Gu Nanye in Gu's study.
Gu Nanye was a little surprised and asked, "Is there something urgent?" ”
Qu Muge nodded, and then said to Xu Baoru: "I'm sorry Brother Xu, please avoid it." ”
Such a serious attitude attracted Gu Nanye's attention.
"Dreaming again?" He put down the letter and pen in his hand and looked at the little girl opposite.
Qu Muge shook his head, took a few steps closer, and said, "I met Chen Heng in Qi Fang Pavilion just now, and he told me that you ordered the killing of seventeen people from Hongye Village. ”
