Su Jinli's complexion looked particularly gloomy under the flickering candlelight, and Xu Rong's heart was cold.
He hurriedly begged for mercy: "Xiaguan is really helpless to participate in this matter!" I beg the princess to spare my life! β
After saying that, he looked at Su Jinli with blank eyes, his eyes full of prayer and hope.
He knew that what he had done before was to defy the condemnation of the world, and once it was revealed, there was no possibility of survival, but he still couldn't help but beg the people in front of him.
He very much hoped that this princess, who had a bad reputation but was not deeply involved in the world, could let him go.
Seeing that he was so spineless, the disdain in Butterfly Charm's eyes deepened a little, and she wanted to cut off Xu Rong's tongue with the cicada wings in her hand, but because Su Jinli hadn't spoken yet, she had to endure this impulse.
"You're pushing clean!" After a long time, Su Jinli spoke quietly.
Although Xu Rong said it nicely and picked him cleanly, she didn't believe it at all.
If Gu Mingyun found Qiao Hao without Xu Rong's handwriting, no one would believe it.
After all, Qiao Hao has a special identity and is as smart as a demon, how could he leak his life experience?
Xu Rong was stared at by those clear eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, and he was a little flustered.
As Su Jinli thought, it was indeed Xu Rong who dedicated Qiao Hao to Gu Mingyun's staff in order to find a better future, but he didn't want the staff to have doubts about Qiao Hao's identity after seeing Qiao Hao, so he began to investigate.
Xu Rong was afraid that the staff would find out that Qiao Hao's life experience was implicated in him, so he directly tied up Qiao Hao to the staff and explained everything to him.
He wanted to exchange Qiao Hao's life for the lives of him and his wife and children.
It was also Qiao Hao's life that should not be killed, and the staff did not kill him after hearing about his life experience, but directly gave Gu Mingyu, who was recruiting talents.
Qiao Hao is erudite and thoughtful, and he is investing in Gu Mingyun's appetite, and he accepts him as a staff member.
Then there was everything that happened later, and the person Qiao Hao was loyal to was no longer Xu Rong, so he would not hesitate to conspire with the horse thief.
And Xu Rong, relying on Qiao Hao's identity, naturally became Gu Mingyun's person.
Therefore, the coercive words he just said are completely nonsense!
"Alright, Butterfly Charm will send Master Xu back!" Su Jinli glanced coldly at Xu Rong, who was still about to quibble, and ordered to Diemei.
The warning in her frosty eyes was too obvious, and Xu Rong's original words were all blocked in his throat in an instant, and he didn't dare to continue.
Butterfly Charm bowed to receive the order, and then dragged Xu Rong towards the outside.
After Die Mei carried Xu Rong away, Su Jinli rubbed her brows that were jumping straight up, and then said a little tiredly: "Lan Mei, prepare the carriage, go and meet Master Qiao!"
She had heard a little about the tragedy of the Qiao family, and the poetry collection was just a fabrication by someone with a heart, and at that time, Emperor Yongli was jealous of Qiao's power in Jiangdong, so he took the opportunity to directly kill Qiao.
Jiangdong Qiao's family, what a prominent scholarly family, when it was at its peak, there were three generations of emperors, and its protΓ©gΓ©s were all over the court and the opposition.
This Master Qiao is the son of the Qiao family, and his noble scenery is not comparable to that of ordinary noble sons.
Thinking about it, he also grew up in fine clothes and food, but he suddenly encountered such a great change, and it was also fateful.
How frightened and helpless must he have been when he was still young and watched hundreds of his relatives and fellow clans being killed?
She couldn't imagine how the noble son of Qing Qing insisted on surviving after experiencing such cruelty and blood!
Thinking about it, she also experienced the destruction of her family in her previous life, so she unconsciously felt a little pity for Master Qiao.
She decided to go to Qiao Hao, if he was willing to get lost and repent, she would give him a way out!
β¦β¦
"Master, the Seventh Imperial Concubine is here!" A servant hurried into the study to report.
After hurriedly speaking, he found that it was dark in the study, and he couldn't help but touch his head suspiciously.
Hasn't Master been in the study today? Could it be that Master Fang Cai went back to the bedroom?
Thinking about it, the servant turned around and went out, intending to go to Qiao Hao's bedroom to find him.
He only turned around when he heard a slightly vicissitudes of voice say, "Got it, please come over!"
Hearing this, the servant was startled at first, and then saw through the moonlight that it was Master Qiao who was looking for him.
He hurriedly walked to the desk and lit the candle, patted his chest with palpitations, and said, "Master, so you are here!" Don't even light a wax, scare the villain to death! β
It's night, and suddenly there is a voice in the dark room, but it is very scary!
Master Qiao chuckled, and then said gently: "It's my negligence!" Hurry up and invite the Seventh Princess to come over, don't slack off your guests! β
The servant nodded hurriedly, and then ran out quickly.
As soon as he left, the smile on Master Qiao's face disappeared, leaving only endless sorrow and melancholy, indescribable decadence.
Tilted less, the servant came with Su Jinli.
Su Jinli glanced at Master Qiao, who was sitting at the desk in a daze, and waved at the servant behind Lan Mei and the servant leading the way, "Let's all step aside!"
The servant heard the order of the fairy-like princess, and hurriedly took the order to retreat, but Lan Mei froze in place.
She frowned and said, "Princess, let the slave and maid accompany you!"
She didn't worry about Su Jinli getting along with Master Qiao alone.
"It doesn't matter! You're standing guard outside the door! Su Jinli took her worries in her eyes, but still insisted.
She believed that Qiao Hao would not do anything to her, after all, this was a very smart person, and he would never do such a meaningless stupid thing.
"Princess......" Lan Mei muttered hesitantly, hoping that Su Jinli could take back her fate.
"Stand down!" Su Jinli's voice was cold.
She appreciated Lan Mei's kindness, but she couldn't tolerate the dark guard's disobedience.
Seeing that she was angry, Lan Mei had no choice but to grit her teeth and retreat.
She carefully closed the door when she went out.
With the "Squeak! In the huge study, only Su Jinli, who was standing on the side with a condensed face, and Qiao Hao, who was sitting quietly at the desk, were left.
"Master Qiao, no, maybe I should call you Gongzi Qiao!" She was the first to speak, and her sharp eyes swept towards Qiao Hao.
"Huh...... The princess really knew! Qiao Hao chuckled, but his eyebrows were overflowing with indescribable bitterness and desolation.
Xu Rong really betrayed him again!
Even though he had known Xu Rong's personality for a long time, he was still sad when he really faced this reality.
Seeing his reaction like this, Su Jinli glanced at him and said lightly: "Gongzi Qiao is a loving and righteous person!"
This Qiao Hao obviously has feelings for Xu Rong, otherwise he would not have such a sad look when he learned of Xu Rong's betrayal.
Qiao Hao smiled bitterly, did not speak, but got up indifferently and elegantly poured a cup of tea for Su Jinli.
"The Seventh Princess, please drink tea!" He said.
As he spoke, he motioned for Su Jinli to sit down.
As soon as the words fell, Su Jinli sat down directly, took the tea that Qiao Hao had just brewed and took a sip.
Seeing that she drank the tea without hesitation, Qiao Hao was stunned, and then asked with a smile: "The princess is so relieved?" Aren't you afraid that Qiao will poison this cup? β
"I believe that the son-in-law from the Qiao clan will not use such indiscriminate means!" Su Jinli replied indifferently.
If Qiao Hao had the intention of harming her, where could she walk safely from the gate of the Zhizhou Mansion to the study?
Qiao Hao's eyes flashed, and then he praised: "The Seventh Imperial Concubine is really smart!" Don't believe this rumor! β
The world is full of Miss Su Jinli, the lady of the Ningguo Mansion, who is stupid and blunt, and her noble identity is domineering and does all kinds of evil.
He said, this Su Jinli was born with a delicate and clear glass heart.
Su Jinli flicked the tea mist with the lid of the cup, blew a few sips gently, and then took another sip of tea, without answering Qiao Hao's words.
"You were suspicious of the villain from the moment you stepped into Qingzhou, right? It was also your people who rescued the two Highnesses, right? At this moment, your people should have gone to the suburbs of Beijing and the banks of the Great River, right? Qiao Hao looked at Su Jinli fixedly and said word by word.
Although it was a question, his face was full of certainty.
He has completely lost, and the last hole cards have been ruined by the person in front of him!
Thinking of this, his gaze became distant.
Su Jinli didn't answer his question, but threw out a new question: "Can Gongzi Qiao still regard himself as the queen of Jiangdong Qiao?"
Qiao Hao, who was in a trance, turned pale, and then a heavy bitterness welled up in his eyes.
Jiangdong Qiao's sons are the most elegant and noble, proud and dignified, and take it as their responsibility to govern the country and level the world and seek welfare for the common people of Li.
But he did such a cruel thing to the people, how can he be called the son of Qiao's family?
Yes, although his heart was like a knife, he still said coldly: "Jiangdong Qiao Hao has already died ten years ago!" Now all that is alive is a demon from hell! β
Now he is just a walking corpse wrapped in hatred and only wants to be ashamed of his relatives and friends!
Hearing this, the pity in Su Jinli's heart deepened a little.
Qiao Hao was just blinded by hatred, he was not a wicked person in essence, otherwise he would not deny that he was the queen of Qiao's in disguise.
Come to think of it, he is also guilty and remorseful for what he has done.
"Alas!" Su Jinli sighed, and then said: "You have such talent and resourcefulness, why can't you be a good official?" You should understand, the case of the Qiao clan is impossible to overturn! β
It was a tragic case of annihilation personally approved by Emperor Yongli, and there were many doubts in the government and the opposition, but no one dared to mention it.
Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.
The collection of poems is obviously just an introduction, and Qiao's demise is obviously caused by the fact that its limelight is too prosperous, which provokes the jealousy and suspicion of Emperor Yongli!
Qiao Hao is so smart, it is impossible not to understand this truth.
Otherwise, he would not have stayed by Xu Rong's side to be a master who made suggestions before Gu Mingyun intervened.
"When people live, there are always some things that they know are impossible and are willing to do their best to chase them!" Qiao Hao smiled sadly.
