Chapter 43: Sisters

"It's just that I was struck by lightning."

Qin Qinghong was stunned.

"But it's very likely that it's not a natural disaster, it's man-made." Gu Ling looked at Qin Qinghong bluntly.

She lowered her eyes, "What does it have to do with me?" Can I still not do it? ”

"Last night, when it was ugly, there was a loud noise in the imperial tomb, and then a fire broke out. Originally, I thought it was a natural disaster, but later I heard that a good family died in that disaster. ”

Qin Qinghong raised her eyes, her teeth were slight, and it seemed that it had taken a lot of effort to calm down, "Who died?" ”

"I heard that the surname is Zhao." As soon as these words fell, Gu Lingxu could clearly feel that Qin Qinghong breathed a sigh of relief.

"So what." As soon as he heard that it was not the person he thought, Qin Qinghong changed back to his previous appearance of not caring about everything. “

"Don't you think it's strange? The fire in the imperial mausoleum, even if there are dead and wounded, it should be a patrolling guard, how could a good family die for no reason. Liangjiazi has his own residence, although he prays near the imperial tomb, but the place where Liangjiazi lives is always some distance from the imperial tomb. How could he die for no reason? What's more, it was ugly then. ”

"I don't know."

Gu Lingxu couldn't help frowning when he saw that Qin Qinghong was still unmoved, he lowered his eyes, remembering what his henchman said to him when he came back, he looked at Qin Qinghong again, "If you really don't know anything, then why are you so nervous when I just said that a good family died?" ”

Qin Qinghong couldn't help but clench her quilt with her right hand, she yawned again, not caring at all that Gu Lingxu was right in front of her, "I'm sleepy." ”

She was about to lie down, but Gu Lingxu grabbed her with the quilt, "Are you worried about your sister?" ”

"I've checked." Gu Lingxu let go of his hand after dragging the person up, and he continued: "After the fire broke out in the Fengshan Courtyard, there was actually one less good family in the courtyard. But because Guan knew that the booklet that was registered at the beginning was taken by Rong Zhi, Rong Zhi pressed the matter. And because the good family was a nun, the Jin Wuwei didn't dare to investigate, so the matter was covered up. ”

After all, no matter how much this matter is investigated, it will not convict the eunuch of any crime, but will discredit Emperor Yuanjia, and the Zhou family is not a fool, and they will not rush to offend the saint, so the matter will be stopped.

"I suddenly remembered that Qin Yushi also had a young daughter, whose name was unknown. But the age and the little nun are right, and after you have a point, you found out that you had donated money to Mingyue Nunnery in various names. So...... The little nun is your sister, right? Gu Ling asked virtually.

Qin Qinghong gently pushed Gu Lingxu in front of her, the two of them distanced themselves, she looked up at him, "What about it?" ”

Miao Duan's disappearance must have been held by Wu Yang, in order to form a mutual constraint with her who was controlled by Gu Lingxu.

She kept her mouth shut, while Wu Yang kept Miao Duan steady, and they maintained a skillful balance.

"I can rescue your sister, I can help you get out of the country, and even at that time, I can give you a large sum of money to send you to Xichang to keep your sisters safe for life. Just tell me who is the person behind you? Gu Ling looked at Qin Qinghong deadly.

Qin Qinghong changed to a comfortable position and lay down, she said half-sarcastically and half-lazily: "In the past, when I was in the party, when it was raining in Wushan, there were also many men who promised me, what 'divorce', what 'concubine', and even nobles said that they would 'hire them with a wife', but what do you think now? ”

"You don't believe me?" Gu Lingxu frowned, if he didn't believe him, forget it, and actually compare him to those prodigal sons who seek pleasure?

"What shall I believe to you? I've seen too many empty words, too many lies. If I believed everything, I would have lost nothing. Qin Qinghong poked Gu Lingxu's chest, there was no trace of emotion in her charming eyes, "My only bargaining chip now is this, as long as I keep my mouth shut, I can guarantee the stability of my sister in this life, and you won't touch me for the time being." Even if you lose patience and kill me that day, I can at least save my sister. ”

"The identity of the other party is very likely to be an agent of another country, who has come to cause trouble to the government. The Imperial Tomb may have been blown up by them! You are also from Northern Qi! Your father has been wronged, and so has my father, and I understand your ......."

"You don't have to coerce me with righteousness." Qin Qinghong interrupted Gu Lingxu's words, she was not as crazy as she was today, "As I said, I don't care so much, whether the country is broken or the family is dead, it has nothing to do with me." I just want my sister to live well. ”

"Have you ever thought that if there are no eggs under the nest, if the country is broken, will your sister be spared?"

"I know there are no eggs under the nest! I've known since my father's accident 10 years ago! But so what, that's the day to come! But if I had told you now, my sister would have died right now. What if the country is broken in the future, that is also our life, and the life of those who were born in this already broken country! Qin Qinghong raised his head, his charming eyes were stubborn and resentful.

"I said I would save her." He pressed Qin Qinghong's shoulder, he didn't believe in his fate, since his father's death, he used his own strength to resist the pressure of both sides and build the Great Wall of the Southwest, if he believed in his fate, he wouldn't be able to do this at all.

It's the same with this country, as long as all of them grit their teeth and hold on, this country will definitely usher in the day of renaissance.

Qin Qinghong patted Gu Lingxu's hand on his shoulder, "You don't even know who the person behind me is, what do you do to save her?" At the very least, you have to bring someone to me, and then negotiate terms with me. You don't even know where the Miaoduan people are, so what's the use of you telling me this? ”

"You wait. I'll definitely get that little nun over. Gu Lingxuan gritted his teeth and said, he looked at Qin Qinghong's eyes, and couldn't help but say again, "Qin Qinghong, don't accept your fate." Nothing else, especially don't admit it, it's your own life. You are still very young, you still have a long life, if you admit it now, then what is the difference between you and death? ”
