Chapter 173: Clues

"Don't ......" Du Du only felt that he had no strength to struggle, so he could only cry weakly, and wanted to reach out to get closer to the high priest, "Don't, mother......"

The high priest was shocked, suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately let go of the hand holding Du Du's neck: "What do you call me?" No, you're not my child! No, I don't have children! ”

Du Du lay on the ground coughing, unable to say a word, while the high priest was still covering his ears, shaking his head and saying, "No, you are not my child, I have no children, and the words of those people outside are all lies!" ”

"Get out of ......" her voice gradually rose and became more and more sharp, "You get out!" ”

She was out of control like a madman, as if she had been the same person for as long as she could remember.

In fact, she didn't know her background at first, but it was only when the old mother who took care of her when she was eight years old said that she had leaked her mouth, and the old mother also said that the high priest did not know that she was her child, and asked her to hide it, otherwise everyone would die, then she would hide it.

She thought, she is good, she is obedient, she hides, the mother will definitely smile at her more, then she will be satisfied, after all, the mother is different from others.

She also did it, although her mother was crazy, she would always tolerate her more, and occasionally listen to her pleas when she was in a good mood, so that she felt that she was valued.

Even when her mother told her that she could not betray her, that she could not leave her, she was happy, and she felt that she was needed.

She can also understand her mother, she knows that her mother is only being ...... by her own family Her father was defeated, and that's what made her so ...... Unrecognizable.

In order to get her to take a look, she could even help her kill people and set fires, but now she understands that she is just one of the many maids, and she just looks down on herself!

She's just one of her most faithful dogs, but...... But she still wants her mother's kiss, she wants her mother to give her a warm hug.

She wants ......

She was full of grief and unwillingness, and she swallowed it all back into her stomach, got up and staggered to the outside of the hall.

She thought, after waiting for so long, if she waits, maybe her mother will be able to see that she is dedicated to her, and make a wish for her...... Ling Wish gives up the warmth she craves......

Dosai's gentle eyes warmed her, his silly smile warmed her, his clumsy care warmed her, but today she hurt one of the few people in the world who cared about her.

Du Du didn't expect to see Dosai when he returned to his house, so he stood guard at her door, as stupid as ever.

"You...... What to do here? She asked, hesitantly.

Seeing her so embarrassed, Duosai was worried: "What's wrong with you?" Be...... Am I causing you trouble? ”

Du Du thought, Duosaiyuan is not so stupid.

But now that she had made a decision, she had no reason to hang people, turned her head, and pretended to be cold and hard: "Since you know, you shouldn't come again." ”

"I ...... I'm here to bring you medicine. Dosai took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom, "It is said that this medicine will not leave a scar when applied to the wound, and you don't like to accept what I give you, and this medicine must be accepted anyway." ”

Du Du's heart was slightly sour, and he wanted to refuse ruthlessly, but he felt that something smooth and with a warm touch had been delivered to him.

She didn't have time to say anything about the people who had gone away.

She looked at the small porcelain bottle in her hand that still had a lot of temperature, and couldn't help but tighten her hand and squeeze it tightly, as if grasping the last trace of warmth.

"Fool, the temple has more medicine than this."

Although she muttered this, she carefully put the small porcelain bottle containing the medicine into her sleeve, and then slumped into the room where she lived.

Qi Ruo put the brewed tea in front of Qi Mo: "I summoned General Doro, I want him to persuade Doro, even if Dosai doesn't want to listen to General Doro's words at that time, but in the end, we will still care about the love of one or two brothers, and we will not fall behind in the army." ”

Qi Mo took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly: "Yes, no one wants their brothers to turn against each other, General Doro is from our side, Dosai...... I don't know much about him, I don't know who he is, I don't know why he helped the High Priest, but I have heard that he liked Du Du, the most powerful lady-in-waiting next to the High Priest. ”

Qi Ruo snorted lightly: "It seems that your people are quite competent, and they can listen to anything." ”

Qi Mo looked at Qi Ruo quite aggrievedly: "It's not a secret, Ah Ruo, don't be like this." ”

Seeing Qi Mo like this, Qi Ruo took a sip of tea unnaturally, and then said: "I also heard Dan Zhi say this, if Duosai really helped the high priest because he was devoted to Du Du, it would be difficult to do, unless he didn't like Du Du anymore." ”

"I heard that yesterday Dosai proposed marriage to the high priest, but Du Du refused on the spot, and Du Du still had a wound on his forehead at that time. No matter how loud the fire is, the High Priest has never dealt with Du Du like this, probably because he learned the news we released yesterday. ”

Qi Mo gently knocked on the edge of the table: "Rao will not necessarily give up Du Du if he has so many competitions, after all, Du Du has such a master, she may not have rejected many times in private, what I care about the most is Du Du's identity." ”

Qi Ruo looked at Qi Mo, and Qi Mo continued: "It's not easy! ”

He turned the teacup in his hand: "Summoning Danzhi to ask, she may know something." ”

Qi Ruo nodded, and immediately called Dan Zhi in.

Dan Zhi heard Qi Ruo's words and immediately replied: "The subordinates don't know Du Du's background, they only know that she was in the temple when she was very young, but the strange thing is that the old mother, who was the most powerful and trusted by the high priest at that time, has been taking care of Du Du very much. ”

"It wasn't until the old mother died that the high priest directly recruited Du Du to serve him closely, and Du Du became the most trusted person by the high priest after the old mother."

She thought for a moment, and then said, "As far as her subordinates know, the high priest treats Du Du quite leniently, compared to the people in the temple, it should be said that he is conniving, and it is more like cultivating her as the next high priest, but she has never made it so explicit. ”

Qi Ruo and Qi Mo glanced at each other, both of them saw the same meaning in each other's eyes, or Qi Mo opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know what happened to the high priest before?" Just her and her negative business. ”

Qi Mo also raised his eyebrows when he said this, which caused Qi Ruo to glare at him again, and then he retracted and took another sip of tea.

Dan Zhi secretly laughed in her heart, and replied with a serious face: "The high priest is the same age as Her Majesty the Queen, but because of the use of some evil medicine, his youth is forever, and he looks slower on his face. His subordinates were two generations behind the high priest, and they didn't know much about it. ”

She paused for a while, frowned, and said: "My subordinates heard my subordinate master lightly mention one or two, saying that the high priest is also a poor person, in fact, she had no intention of inheriting the position of the high priest, but was forced by the previous high priest, and the man also lost her, she has changed her mind since then, and she willingly inherited the position of the high priest. ”

The master also said that the poor person must have something to hate, and she has since become vicious and vicious, and she is also very ambitious, trying to control the entire desert, and the status of the first high priest in the desert court is more prosperous than the previous high priest. As for the side, my subordinates have never heard of it. ”

Qi Ruo frowned and pondered: "Then she was indeed injured by a man, no wonder she hates a man so much." However, isn't there a way to probe her past again? ”

"The previous high priest kept this matter a secret, and many people did not know about it, even Her Majesty at that time, they only heard some rumors. But......" Dan Zhi seemed to hesitate, bit her lip, and still made a decision, "The subordinates know that someone may know about the high priest's past, but I'm not sure if she will say it." ”

"Who?" Qi Ruo and Qi Mo asked in unison.

"The old mother who served the high priest since she was not a high priest, that is, the old mother who took care of Du Du later." Dan Zhi replied.

Qi Ruo was quite surprised: "Aren't people dead?" How to ......"

Dan Zhi told Qi Ruo about the past.

It turned out that the high priest suddenly killed the old mother for some reason, but he didn't think that the old mother was only seriously injured, and there was still a breath, and she was inadvertently saved by Danzhi's master.

Danzhi's master wanted to ask something from the old mother's mouth, but she still had the feelings of master and servant for the high priest, and she refused to say anything after the previous high priest's advice.

"Master is kind-hearted, thinking that she is so old, and thinking about it in case of emergency, I don't know when I can use her, and it can be regarded as a handle of the high priest in our hands, so we put her under house arrest in a remote courtyard, and there is a person who is quite strong in martial arts to take care of her on weekdays."

"Without further ado, it's inconvenient for me to show up, you can take Mo Si to find her now."

If Qi Ruo planned to find out about this matter as soon as possible, it would be best to reveal the true face of the high priest in the temple where she succeeded to the throne, so that the news could be spread in time.

It wasn't that her move would change the minds of the desert people that had been ingrained for many years, but at least they wouldn't trust the high priest wholeheartedly in the future.

Qi Mo obviously thought more, and asked with a solemn color: "Who else knows about this old mother?" ”

Dan Zhi subconsciously shook her head in denial, but she stopped after only half of the shake.

She opened her mouth and said with difficulty, "There are still ...... And the senior sister, before the master died, he told my senior sister about this matter, and there was no more ...... Others. ”

Qi Ruo was shocked, and also reacted: "Be quick, it's best to be cautious, if they find out, don't be afraid, as long as you can save people." ”

They spread rumors that were unfavorable to the High Priest, and if Dannon really threw himself at the High Priest, he would have thought of the old mother, and he was afraid that he would deliver the news to the High Priest on these two days, but they were keeping an eye on her these days, and she should not be able to do it easily, unless she wanted to be found out that she had betrayed.

I can only gamble, for fear that Danon will unknowingly hand over the news.
