Gu Xiyan sent Ding Cuiniang to Qixiaguan: "Go and inquire about the person named Qi Yuzhi, see what he has done in Qixiaguan, what people he has met, and what background those people are......"
Ding Cuiniang nodded and left. Ξ§aΞΒ·cΠΌ
Gu Xiyan called Mo Ju again: "You go to Mama Tian to get the door number and go out of the house, go to the red clothes in the East Market to see how our clothes are doing, take the opportunity to go to the mighty dart bureau to see if there is anything interesting in the dart bureau!" β
Mo Ju left in response.
Whelan was probing his brain from the side.
Gu Xiyan called her in: "Is there something wrong?" β
Whelan smiled, "Just to see if the girl has anything to send here." If it's okay, I'll go back to Da'anfang first. β
The matter of Huilan's entry into the palace was not completely decided, mainly because during this time, the Zongren Mansion had all refuted the matter of foreign women entering the palace to meet them, and Mrs. Gu had no chance to enter the palace, and if Huilan entered the mansion, she must have Cui Baoyi's consent.
If it was usual, Gu Xiyan didn't care, but now......
She smiled and said, "I'll send someone to Da'anfang to talk about it." You're here, and I have someone to keep you company. β
The corners of Whelan's mouth couldn't help but curl up, and she looked very happy.
Turning around, Gu Xiyan instructed Duan Niang: "Let Xinghong be with her, I have now invited someone from the Liu family to help, don't let Huilan see anything." β
Duan Niang nodded: "I know, don't worry, girl!" β
When Mo Ju came back, Gu Xiyan was playing with Hui Lan.
Xinghong smiled: "Mo Ju, where have you been, why haven't you seen anyone for a day!" β
Mo Ju smiled at Xinghong, and bowed directly to Gu Xiyan: "Girl, I went to Hongshang to get the skirt that the girl ordered, who knew that as soon as I spread it out, the peach-colored woven gold floral silk eight-piece skirt hem was loosened. I had to ask the master in the store to re-tie the rope. I waited for a long time and didn't get it done, and I was afraid that the girl would remember it. I made an appointment to pick it up tomorrow. β
Gu Xiyan's attention seemed to be attracted by the copper coins on the small table, and she nodded casually: "Then you can go again tomorrow!" β
Mo Ju went down.
In the evening, Mo Ju is on duty. The two of them whispered on Gu Xiyan's eight-step bed like a small house: "...... I did as the girl had told, but I did not dare to enter the door. β
"Is there something unusual?" Gu Xiyan asked.
"Hmm." Mo Ju nodded, "There are a lot of people coming in and out, but they are all young men, there are no women and children, I always feel that something is wrong, so I dare to take a quick glance and leave." β
"Well done." Gu Xiyan praised it. "In the future, you have to remember that no matter how important things are, it is not as important as your own life."
In the dark, Mo Ju's black and white eyes shone like gems: "I had to loosen the ground on my skirt and find a chance to go again." β
In the darkness of the night. Gu Xiyan was silent for a long time before he said abruptly: "Let's talk about it depending on the situation." It's not too early, let's rest first! β
When Ding Cuiniang came back, it was the middle of the night, and Gu Xiyan screamed in fright when she woke up, but before the scream spilled out of her throat, she felt numb in her neck, and her voice was blocked.
Gu Xiyan looked at Ding Cuiniang, who was dressed like a chivalrous woman in black clothes and black pants, and after a while, Ding Cuiniang nodded on Gu Xiyan's neck again. Gu Xiyan felt numb again, and then she hurriedly coughed softly.
Luckily, the sound is back.
Gu Xiyan said softly: "You come to the bed and talk, it's safer." β
Ding Cuiniang did not hesitate, took off her shoes and went to Gu Xiyan's bed.
Gu Xiyan asked eagerly, "What's wrong?" β
Ding Cuiniang said: "The person the girl said has been found. He entered Beijing on 19 February this year. Pseudonym Jiang Tianbao. As a dart master in the mighty dart bureau, he often goes to Qixia to watch the incense. In May. He had been to Qixia Temple on the 3rd, 9th, 10th, 16th, 17th, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd, and in June, he went more often, almost every two or three days, and the last time he appeared at Qixia Temple was on July 1, and he never went again. The people from the Weiwu Dart Bureau claimed that Jiang Tianbao had gone to Liangdi, and I had sent someone to confirm it, and there would be a response in three days at the latest. "Who did he associate with when he was in the Mighty Dart Game?"
Ding Cuiniang replied clearly: "And a person named Qian Jia, this name is also a pseudonym." This person is actually called Zhou Heyun, and the people of the rivers and lakes gave him a nickname called Junzi Jian, and he is one of the best masters in Jindi. In addition to him, we also found a palm in the mighty dart bureau Zhao San, the little white dragon Li Chen, the boss of the three heroes Li brothers in Guanzhong, Li Xian, and the deadly double hook Luo Yutang, these people are all pseudonyms in the mighty dart bureau, we are not in the dart bureau when we go to check, saying that we went to dart with Qi Yuzhi. β
Ghost believes!
Ding Cuiniang didn't believe it either, and said: "These people are good and evil, they don't have much interaction with each other, all of them are famous figures, and we are very surprised to get together." β
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but glance at Ding Cuiniang and asked, "We, do we mean Liu's Mansion or the place where you used to be?" β
Ding Cuiniang was silent.
Gu Xiyan smiled: "Silence is also an answer. Don't get me wrong, make one more friend and one more way to go, maybe one day we are destined to meet and you will help me again. β
Ding Cuiniang smiled shallowly: "If there is anything wrong with the girl, just find us through the seventh master!" β
In other words, he rejected Gu Xiyan's olive branch. Gu Xiyan didn't care too much, originally, the first time they cooperated, Liu Zuocheng was the owner again...... She quickly shifted her attention to Qi Maosheng's disappearance: "Do you know anything about Yan Guogong's family affairs?" β
Ding Cuiniang hesitated.
Gu Xiyan smiled: "Is there an additional fee to investigate this?" β
The girl laughed. Ding Cuiniang couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth when she heard this, "The wealthy family is secret, there are many rumors in the market, and there are many untruths." β
Gu Xiyan admired Ding Cuiniang's pragmatic and truth-seeking style very much: "Then let's talk casually." β
Ding Cuiniang pondered for a while, straightened out her thoughts, and said: "Qi Yuzhi's father Qi Yu is the son-in-law of the former Duke of Yan Guo, his biological mother is the Duchess of Yan Guo, and Lord Xu Zhenxu, a scholar of the cabinet and a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, is his uncle. When Qi Yu was ten years old, he was named the prince of Yanguo. It is said that this talent is eight buckets high, both civil and military. When he was twenty years old, he fell ill and died. Qi Yuzhi was only five years old at the time. Mrs. Xu wants to make Qi Yuzhi her grandson and inherit the title directly. But then I don't know why I suddenly set up a fourteen-year-old Qi Hao, he is a concubine......"
Fuck Qi Maosheng, even the name is made up!
Gu Xiyan's face turned pale.
But. The name Xu Zhen is very familiar, but I didn't expect Qi Yuzhi to be Xu Zhen's nephew!
Ding Cuiniang didn't know what Gu Xiyan had changed and her face had changed, so she glanced at Gu Xiyan strangely and continued: "After Qi Hao inherited the Duke of Yan Guo, he only gave birth to one daughter. He has two half-brothers, who are also concubines, one is named Qi Han. He died ten years ago, leaving no heirs; The other is named Qi Xiao, who gave birth to two daughters and a son, the two daughters are from the concubine, and the son is from the concubine. The Yanguo Mansion from the present point of view. Qi Yuzhi's status is the highest ......"
So Qi Maosheng, no, Qi Hao said that Qi Yuzhi is the next heir of Yan Guogong!
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but hesitate.
Qi Yuzhi will never appear in Shengjing for no reason, just as Qi Hao will never be injured for no reason. The question is, does Qi Hao's injury and disappearance have anything to do with Qi Yuzhi?
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but look at Ding Cuiniang blankly.
Ding Cuiniang lowered her eyelids and avoided her gaze.
She was invited by Liu Zuocheng, and when she got the news, she would naturally tell Liu Zuocheng first, and Liu Zuocheng agreed, so she would tell herself!
Gu Xiyan's heart was like a mirror, and he asked, "What did the Seventh Master say?" β
Ding Cuiniang said: "The seventh master is also worried. It would be good if Qi Yuzhi was rescued by those people. If not...... Then the Liu family is equivalent to offending the court and Qi Hao, the Duke of Yanguo. β
Gu Xiyan was angry.
They misunderstood.
turned Qi Hao and Qi Yuzhi upside down.
This damn Qi Hao not only deceived her, but also deceived Liu Zuocheng.
Do you want to explain it to Liu Zuocheng?
Gu Xiyan looked up hesitantly, but saw Ding Cuiniang's sharp eyes.
Her heart throbbed. Swallowed back what he was about to say.
Ding Cuiniang was invited by the Liu family to investigate this matter. It's not a simple character in itself, is it? After spreading the news, Qi Maosheng's situation may be even more dangerous. After all, there is a world of difference in importance between Yan Guogong's nephew and Yan Guogong himself......
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's a big loss!" β
Ding Cuiniang couldn't help but smile slightly.
Gu Xiyan sighed, let's do this for the time being!
She leaned on the big pillow, her ring finger gently drawing circles on the thin quilt, Ding Cuiniang sat quietly cross-legged beside her, the room was silent, only the chiming clock was ticking there.
After a long time, Gu Xiyan sighed: "You have worked hard, go and rest first." Tomorrow, please go to the mighty dart game to have a look! β
Ding Cuiniang left silently.
The danger of the matter has exceeded his imagination, and Mo Ju can no longer interfere. Three days have passed, and if something happens to Qi Maosheng, it will be too late, and if nothing happens, then he should appear on July 14.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiyan couldn't help but take out the private seal again and rub it in his hand.
Is this really just a private stamp?
She remembered Qi Maosheng's melancholy and vicissitudes of life under the moonlight that night.
Let her go to Yandi, is it really just that she is worried that her situation is so simple?
If Qi Maosheng is ...... by Qi Yuzhi
As soon as he thought of this possibility, Gu Xiyan felt a tingling in his heart.
Do you still want me to give this private seal to Qi Yuzhi, as if the icing on the cake is so that he can inherit the title smoothly?
What good will it do me to confess my enemies?
In the flint light, Gu Xiyan was like an initiation.
What's in it for me!
never knew the truth, regarded Qi Yuzhi as a dependent, and lived ignorantly with Qi Hongluan under his wings for a lifetime......
No, no, no. It won't be like this.
Qi Maosheng is not such a simple person!
He didn't tell himself a word of truth, even his name was fake, how could he be, how could he go to great lengths for a person who was in the middle of the water!
He must have had no choice, so he handed over the private seal to himself, and finally lured himself to Yandi and handed it over to Qi Yuzhi......
No, no, no. At that time, he said that when Qi Xia watched and met Qi Yu's place, the expression on Qi Maosheng's face was surprised and solemn. He was a very reserved person, and if he wasn't too surprised, he wouldn't have shown it on his face......
No, no, no. The first time he met him, he still put his sword around his neck and threatened himself, and he forced himself to deliver a letter knowing that there was danger, he was a complete bastard, a complete liar......
For a while, the ups and downs came one after another!
