Chapter 146: Lovers Eventually Become Brothers and Sisters
Mrs. Shi frowned, "Your Excellency must have seen the old man back then, and only after getting the old man's promise and clues will he find the Liuju Nunnery." But this matter is by no means a trivial matter, and the poor nun still has to ask, who is the adult, and how did he know about it? ”
"In Xia Jin Ruxu, this time I came here to investigate the truth of the year for the prince of Nan. It was Imperial Physician Jiang and Granny Yan Jing who guided me here, and it was really unexpected for Xu to accidentally find this link. Come here today to be abrupt, don't blame the teacher. Ruxu bowed to Shitai.
"It seems that everything is a cycle of cause and effect...... Amitabha. Shi Tai clasped her hands together, "Today you came alone, I'm afraid that Lord Nan still doesn't know about this, and Poor Ni believes that you already know the stakes, and I hope you can keep this secret." ”
Ruxu nodded.
"The child was indeed sent to Yong'an Temple back then, and at that time, Xiao Bingchen and Xiao Shizhu lived in Yong'an Temple, and Niangniang's original intention was to hope that Xiao Shizhu would take the child away." Mrs. Shi recalled the past, "But Lord Xiao Shi expected that someone in the palace would hunt him down, so he handed over the child to the presiding officer of Yong'an Temple. The temple was full of monks, and they couldn't take care of the newborn child, so they sent the child to the Liuju'an. ”
In a blink of an eye, the child stayed in the Liujuan for two or three years. In the end, Lord Xiao Shi came to take the child away, and there was no news after that. Mrs. Shi sighed, "I heard that he was killed later, and the two children are gone." It was more than 10 years after I heard the names of my two children. ”
Ruxu thought about it in his heart, and suddenly found a terrifying thing. Earlier, Don't Xiao said that he and Jinzhi were Xiao Bingchen's righteous sons and daughters, and they were taken to him when they were very young. Don't Xiao say that the experience is so close to what Mrs. Shi said, so to speak......
Could it be that Concubine Xiang is a pair of dragon and phoenix twins...... It turned out to be Bei Xiao and Xiao Jinzhi?!
"Kid...... What is your name? Every word of Ruxu was trembling, and her heart was about to jump out.
"One part, two wide, keep in mind. This is a sentence left by Concubine Xiang Niangniang to the child at that time...... "Mrs. Shi looked at Ruxu, "Lord Xiao named the child, the boy is called Xiao Bei, and the girl is called ......"
"Xiao Jinzhi's ......" as Xu suddenly muttered, only to feel dizzy in front of him, and he stumbled under his feet and almost fell.
In this way, Xiao Jinzhi and Bei Xiao are brothers and sisters, and they are also Qianwu's half-siblings. With that said, Qianwu has loved her sister for ten years...... Ruxu suddenly felt very uncomfortable in his heart, as if there was a stone blocked in his chest.
Equally surprised was the fifth child in the bhikshuni, who, although confused, also knew that her master was related to the maiden in the palace.
Mrs. Shi didn't speak anymore, just looked at Ruxu quietly, "Does the donor know them?" ”
"I don't know it, but I've heard of it." Ruxu looked at her, lowered his eyes and shook his head.
"Amitabha...... Concubine Xiang is kind and benevolent, and helps the world. I hope that the adults can keep this secret and don't hurt the prince and other innocent people......"
Ruxu clasped his hands together and bowed to Shitai, and Shitai left the courtyard with all the bhikshunis, and before leaving, Ruxu and Lao Wu glanced at each other.
On the way back, Ru Xu had mixed feelings in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the heavier it became. She felt sad for Qianwu, the woman he had loved for so many years turned out to be his sister...... This really proves the sentence of modern bloody romance dramas, lovers eventually become brothers and sisters.
But at the same time, there was a hint of joy in her heart. Since Xiao Jinzhi is Qianwu's younger sister, he doesn't need to be obsessed with her in the future. But when I think about it, even if the two are brother and sister, Qianwu has already paid their feelings, which is also an indisputable fact. No matter how much he can't change, he loved the person "Xiao Jinzhi".
In the end, she didn't know what kind of complicated emotions she was holding when she returned to the Xu Mansion, and as soon as she got off the carriage, she saw Qianwu standing at the door of her mansion, looking at her with her arms crossed and smiling.
At this moment, Ruxu wanted to cry inexplicably.
But she didn't, and after she got out of the carriage, she walked over to Qianwu and looked up at him with tears of pity in her eyes. In the blink of an eye, she could only say, "I'm back." ”
Qianwu didn't know what was wrong with her, so he pulled her into the Xu Mansion and hugged her in the atrium.
By this time it was getting late, and the clouds in the lead-colored sky had twisted into a heavy ingot of silver, and it seemed that a heavy snow was about to fall.
"What's wrong? I heard that you went to Yong'an Temple, did something happen? Qianwu asked softly.
"I miss you so much today...... Even if I hold you like this, I still miss you so much. Ru didn't answer him, but just took a breath and rested his head in his arms.
"Hmm." Chiki tightened the hand that held her and sniffed the scent of her hair.
Early the next morning, Qianwu went from Xu's Mansion to Shangchao, and Qichuan rushed to Xu's Mansion to report the news to Ruxu, saying that Liuju'an was washed in blood last night, and there was not a single living mouth left.
"What? What about your fifth senior sister? How is she?! Ruxu was stunned, and after a while, she reacted, and Concubine An's gentle smile suddenly flashed in her mind, "It was the people from Six Feet Lane who did it!" What a vicious woman! ”
Her reaction made Qi Chuan a little confused, but she still answered truthfully, "We didn't find the body of the fifth sister." ”
Ruxu breathed a sigh of relief, she hurriedly comforted herself, the fifth sister is good at martial arts, maybe she escaped a catastrophe? At the same time, she blamed herself very much, "If I hadn't asked about the events of the year, Mrs. Shi would not have told me about it, and she would not have caused herself to be killed, and the people of Liujuan would not have died." ”
At the same time, Ru Xu also knew that now the people in Six Feet Lane probably already knew that she was investigating Concubine Xiang behind her back. In order to avoid exposing the Thousand Mists, she must keep her distance from the Thousand Mists.
"Haosheng bury their bodies and do his best to find the whereabouts of the fifth sister." He gave orders and sat alone in the room and thought.
As soon as he got off the morning court, he saw Qianwu coming to Xu's mansion quickly, and when he saw Ruxu, he said, "Qin Zheng has found the stronghold of Six Feet Lane!" ”
This matter was already expected by Xu, and she replied lightly, "I already know about it, and now the question is for us to know whether Ah Xin is being locked up in the Chang'an Palace, and where is it being held......
"Listen to me first." Qianwu interrupted her, "After going down to court today, I met Zhou Ziheng again. He told me that your eyeliner in the palace has found out the secret room in the Chang'an Palace, and he has been looking for an opportunity to inform you of the news in the past few days. ”
Gyokuro ...... Ruxu immediately thought that it must be the news delivered by Yulu. She thought for a moment and said, "Is there a secret room in the Chang'an Palace, and is there anyone in the secret room?" That's not the point, the point is that no matter what the situation in the palace is, we have to send someone to take a risk. As he spoke, he frowned.
Jin Feng had been listening to the door for a long time, when she suddenly ran in from outside, saluted the two of them, and said, "Let me go!" ”
Ruxu turned his head to look at Jin Feng, and the two looked at each other for a moment.
In this Chang'an Palace, Concubine An Guifei had already learned that Ru Xu was playing behind her back, and her delicate and small face was immediately gloomy, "I didn't expect it to be Lord Xu who orchestrated all this behind her back...... It seems that I can't sit still either. ”
Then he summoned Yulu to the palace, and Concubine An raised a beautiful smile and said to her slowly, "I want a poison, colorless and smellless, and if you are ready, give it to the kitchen steward." ”
Yulu looked at Concubine An, although she didn't know what she was going to do, but she vaguely felt a little bad in her heart.
"Niangniang wants to attack Lord Xu?" Ruri asked.
"The Baohua Fang that Lord Xu is treating is solid, and the palace has to find another way...... I heard that Lord Xu has a cute little daughter named Peach Blossom. Lord Xu has been in the palace for nearly four months, and the palace has not yet expressed it, and now let the kitchen make some snacks and send them to Lord Xu's children to try, which can be regarded as a gesture of affection. ”
Yulu shouted in her heart that it was not good, but there was no other way. She must find a way to protect herself, and more importantly, ensure the safety of Peach Blossom. After returning to the house, she thought carefully for a long time, and finally came up with a solution.
In the afternoon of the same day, the kitchen brought pastries to An Guifei. Yulu stood beside her with her head down, watching the maids bring a dog, and Liuli grabbed the dog's mouth and stuffed a piece of pastry into it. It didn't take long for the dog to twitch and quickly lose its breath and be dead.
"Very well done." An Guifei praised Yulu.
"Thank you for the compliment, it is Yulu's duty to meet the needs of the mother." Gyokuro said respectfully.
So he immediately sent someone to summon Qianyun from the study, and Qianyun took the copper coin to the Chang'an Palace, and saluted An Guifei, "Qianyun has seen Guifei Niangniang." ”
Concubine An took his hand kindly, and said with a smile on her face, "Qianyun, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much." There happened to be a lot of pastries made in the palace today, so you can take them and try them. ”
After that, he took the food box in Liuli's hand and handed it to Qianyun.
Qianyun opened it and looked at it, and was about to speak when she was interrupted by Liuli again, "Niangniang specially ordered someone to make pastries for the little prince, I hope the little prince will like it." ”
Qianyun had no choice but to thank him, and walked out of the Chang'an Hall with the food box a little inexplicably. At this time, Liuli chased out again and said, "Little prince stays!" Liuli has something to tell you. ”
Concubine An took his hand kindly, and said with a smile on her face, "Qianyun, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much." There happened to be a lot of pastries made in the palace today, so you can take them and try them. ”
After that, he took the food box in Liuli's hand and handed it to Qianyun.
