"Because your father is hypocritical." Yu Pianpian tilted her head and replied, "I don't understand either, and we're not going to harm people." We just sell the medicine to others, how are they going to do it, what do we have to do with it? However, it is not my father who killed him. Because the whole village wants him dead. ”

"How is that possible! My father was very kind to everyone, and everyone respected him! Xiao Ling retorted.

"Yes before, but now your father has cut off everyone's money. After eating the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, how can you be willing to go back and eat steamed buns? ”

"You ......" Xiao Ling couldn't open his mouth anymore, because the pain caused by the Gu worm's bite was enough to hurt his heart.

"This is the Zisheng Gu that I personally refined for you. Don't worry, you won't die so easily, no matter what the Gu worm says, it can torture you for two or three years. ”

"Why do you want to do this...... ...... to me" is less than Ling trying to spit out a word.

Yu Pianpian suddenly lowered her face, her face hideous: "Because of your face!" Aren't you disgusting when a man is born so good-looking? I'll see if the people in the village will be able to boast in your face in a few days! ”

That night was a nightmare for Xiao Ling.

The nightmare lasted for two years.

After that day, Yu Ling had no home.

His originally bright and warm room was occupied by Yu Hao and moved into the firewood room.

He lost the treatment of being well cared for, and he could not even guarantee food and clothing. He could only go up the mountain to find some wild vegetables to satisfy his hunger, and by the way, pick some herbs to cure his weakness.

There was no longer pity or love in the eyes of the villagers looking at him, but disgust and disgust.

His original playmates would even surround him with ridicule and scolding, and even take away the herbs he picked and throw them away.

Xiao Ling gradually understood that kindness is useless. Only the relationship of interests is the most reliable.

One day, Xiao Ling suffered the same drama again.

Xiao Ling is chased outside the village by a group of former friends, and there is a miasma in front of him, and he has no way to escape.

"I'll just say that Yu Ling can't run, he is so weak, how dare he go into the poisonous miasma, he can't live if he goes in."

"Yu Ling, why don't you kneel down and learn how to bark, how about we let you go today?"

"What's the point of learning to bark a dog, why don't you lie down and let us ride as a horse."

"Okay, that's a good idea."

"Eh, Yu Ling, you really dare to go, you will die!"

Xiao Ling didn't look back, and his figure gradually disappeared into the mist of poisonous miasma.

Even if I die, I will not die before you.

Xiao Ling covered his mouth and nose and ran quickly, he knew that only by quickly passing through the miasma could he have a glimmer of life.

He has a deep blood feud, and he can't die.

It's a pity that the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, and a sharp pain swept through the body.

The Gu poison attacked.

Less than Ling lay on the ground in despair, waiting for death to come. However, as time passed, he found that he had no symptoms of shortness of breath other than pain.

The miasma didn't work for him.

Only then did he realize that Gu poison could restrain the miasma.

"The dark line came to report, Huyan is extremely ill, and he has gone to court normally." In the carriage, Qin Chongzhou smashed the wire newspaper and threw it out of the window.

"Didn't you get so sick that you didn't pay attention to the government before? It's good so soon? Zhao Chengxi was suspicious.

"I have to say that Hu Yanji was really sick, and as soon as this illness was cured, he cured Hu Yanjue of rebellion and false transmission of the holy decree, and was imprisoned for life, his mother was abolished, and the Yelu family was implicated, so he lost power."

"Could it be that Hu Yanji is pretending to be sick?"

"Whether he is faking illness or really sick, only he knows. Now that I think about it, Ling Xiu has been missing for more than ten years, doesn't Hu Yanji know that the possibility of finding it is extremely small? Hu Yanjue's voice was high, but Hu Yanji had been looking for the reason for the eldest prince and had not re-established the crown prince. His serious illness this time tempted Hu Yanjue to be bold and reckless, and he was defeated. Thinking about it like this, I'm afraid it's not Hu Yanji who is playing a big game of chess. ”

"If you want to destroy it, you must indulge it first. In this way, this Hu Yanji is not a simple character. ”

"The Northern Zhou Dynasty is not like Dongling, the Northern Zhou family is powerful, and Huyan is extremely important to balance the power of the family, and it takes a lot of effort. Among the families, the four major families are the leaders. In addition to Ling Xiu's mother's Yuguo Mansion, Huyanjue's mother's Yelu family, there are also Xiahou family and Helan family. ”

"Now that the Yelu family has fallen, there are only three left?"

"The Duke of Yuguo is the mother of the first queen of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and there have been many queens on the ancestors, and it can be said that Ye Fan's roots are deep in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. After the death of the first queen, Yelu's family was powerful, and Yu Guogong gradually lowered his profile, except for Yu Cheng, who had military power, everyone else was a young child and had no real power. ”

Zhao Chengxi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and analyzed: "You said that it was possible that the Yelu family had murdered the first queen, but Hu Yanji had no actual evidence, so he deliberately indulged the Yelu family in order to destroy it one day." After all, Hu Yanji has been looking for Ling Xiu for so many years, and his feelings for the former queen are not like fakes. ”

"If that's the case, then Huyanji can be regarded as affectionate."

"What about the other two?"

"The current head of the Xiahou family, Xiahou Qing, has a low official position, but the Xiahou family has a lot of money, and he is the richest man in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Moreover, his family has a large number of children, who serve in various places in the DPRK and China, and although they do not hold important positions, they should not be underestimated. ”

"What about the Helan family?"

"The Helan family is the weakest of the four families, and they have always been attached to the Yelu family, and the two families are in unison. This time, the Yelu family lost power, and the Helan family subdued the remnants of the Yelu family and became one of the three major families. ”

"How do you know that?"

"Xi'er is going to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, so I naturally want to investigate the Northern Zhou forces clearly. Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles. ”

"Well done." Zhao Chengxi nodded in affirmation, "Then how about we pretend to be an unmarried couple who are looking for relatives?" ”

"Looking for relatives? Who to look for? ”

Zhao Chengxi, with many years of experience in reading scripts, made up the reason in a moment: "Let's say that the ancestor of the family has an old friend in the capital of Zhou, and I haven't seen him for many years, and I don't know if he is okay, so we let us come to visit." It just so happened that we had never been to the capital of Zhou, so we took this opportunity to have a good time. As for this old friend......"

Zhao Chengxi smiled slyly.

Qin Chongzhou understood: "Isn't it Yu Guogong?" ”

"Yes, it's Yu Guogong."

"If we approach Ling Xiu directly and rashly, we are afraid that it will attract too much attention. Yu Guogongfu is Ling Xiu's mother's family, and it is logical for us to contact Ling Xiu in the future, and Yu Chenghuai knows us again, so he will naturally help us cover up. ”

"All-in-the-middle." Zhao Chengxi continued to write his own script, "If we want to hide our identity, we naturally have to choose another name." Well, I'll continue to call Bi Xi. What about you, have you ever taken a pseudonym? ”
