Ci Jinzhi

Dai Ze cried with snot and tears: "It is said that my father called Jinshang's name when drinking with Jinshang. Jinshang was angry, and my father was beaten by the imperial staff, so he couldn't stand it..."

King Qing was stunned, his first reaction was that it was impossible.

Father is the founding king of the country, although his methods are tough, he still has affection for the veterans who follow him to conquer the world.Especially Uncle Gu Chang, he was his own uncle, how could he kill his uncle just because of an offense?

Guchangbo was the fourth, and there were three other brothers on top of him. The second brother died when he was young, and the third brother died in troubled times. Only one eldest brother lived a good life for two years under the influence of the younger brother, and died of illness soon after the founding of the country.

For King Qing, who was born in the third year of Xingyuan, it was just such an uncle.

"I'll go into the palace." King Qing suppressed his panic and ran towards the imperial city.

"Your Majesty, His Highness Prince Qing is asking to see you."

Emperor Xing Yuan opened his eyes, expressionless: "Let him go back."

King Qing didn't see Emperor Xingyuan, so he went to Hanyu Palace.

Concubine Shu cried until her eyes were swollen: "Yi'er, you are here."

"Mother and Concubine, why did Emperor Father kill Uncle?"

"Mother and concubine don't know—" Concubine Shu wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "It was so sudden, I rushed over after receiving the news, no matter how much I begged you, father, it was useless..."

After being forcibly sent back to the dormitory, she was distraught, and after much deliberation, she could only think of one possibility: Could it be that her elder brother sent someone to eradicate the future troubles and exposed them?
Concubine Shu only learned the news from Uncle Guchang after Empress Xin's accident.

It was inconvenient for brothers and sisters to meet, and it was hard to go into more details. She was nervous about it for a few days, and it was more about the solidity of the boulder.

The shadow that that woman brought to her was too deep, and the disappearance of these years was like a sword hanging above her head, causing her to have nightmares from time to time.

Dreaming that the woman came back, she lost everything, her Yi'er lost everything.

"Mother and concubine don't understand anything?" King Qing couldn't figure it out.

Looking at her bewildered son, Concubine Shu suppressed the grief and fear in her heart, and shook her head: "Yi'er, you go back, go visit your uncle on behalf of concubine mother, and help me..."

She couldn't tell Yi'er about that terrible guess.Knowing nothing is the best for Yi'er.

King Qing left the palace silently.

In a short period of time, many ministers tried to ask for an interview but were rejected.These people were wandering outside the imperial city, and when they saw King Qing's serious expression, they subconsciously approached.

King Qing glanced at these people, and kept walking.

The news of Uncle Gu Chang's accident spread more and more widely. When Duan Shaoqing heard the news and rushed home, he met the person who came to deliver letters from Uncle Gu Chang's mansion and came out of Shaoqing's mansion.

Duan Yunhua and Dai Ze are already engaged, so it is necessary to report the funeral to the Shaoqing Mansion.

"I see, my condolences." After dealing with the mourners, Duan Shaoqing went to Ruyi Hall.

In the wishful hall, the old lady sat withered and didn't respond for a while.

The servants in the room did not dare to make a sound until Duan Shaoqing's arrival broke the silence of the room.

"Mother, do you know about the affairs of Uncle Guchang's mansion?" Duan Shaoqing gestured for the servant girl to step back, and then opened her mouth.

The old lady rolled her eyes, and watched her son say something unexpected: "Wen Song, do you think Mr. Qiao is a broom star, and will bring trouble to the children after being divorced?"

"Mother, don't think so—"

"Don't think so? If it wasn't for her, how could the eldest girl make such a big mistake? The second girl was not educated, so let's just say, she finally got married, and somehow she encountered such a disaster..."

Compared with other people who were just curious, the Shaoqing government cared more about the reason why Gu Changbo was killed with a stick.

"Wen Song, you haven't heard any rumors since you were an official in the court? Why is Uncle Guchang rejected by the emperor?"

"It's disrespectful to drink too much." Duan Shaoqing smiled wryly, "As Uncle Gu Chang, it's unlikely that he lost his life because of this. It's unclear why..."

The mother and son were relatively speechless, and their hearts were like a stone.

What they were worried about was not Duan Yunhua's marriage, but whether they would implicate the Shaoqing Mansion.

This shocking event has not yet spread among the people, and the street where Qingsong Bookstore is located is still bustling.

Xin You sat by the counter, dazed.

It's March, and she and Xiao Lian have agreed to go to Qianying Mountain to collect Kou Qingqing's bones.

Mr. He, did you report the mother's affairs to that person?
Shopkeeper Hu put his abacus on his hand and glanced at the girl in a daze, secretly surprised.

The host has been in the lobby most of the time these two days, could it be that he is waiting for someone?

"Master He, I haven't seen you for a long time." Seeing He Qingxiao walking in dressed in red, Liu Zhou thought his eyes were dazzled, and rushed to meet him with great enthusiasm.

He Qingxiao nodded: "Long time no see."

He looked over the boy and met the eyes of the girl at the counter.

Xinyou stood up.

She had been waiting for him, but when she really waited for him to come, she felt very close to home and felt timid.

Did Mr. He bring back any evidence when he traveled south?How did that person react when he found out?
Xin You couldn't wait to know, but she was also a little afraid of knowing.

She knew that what she was afraid of was disappointment.

After hesitating, the man had already walked past Liu Zhou and came to her.

She heard a familiar clean and deep voice: "Long time no see, how is Miss Kou?"

Xin You stabilized her confused mind, and bowed to He Qingxiao: "I'm fine, where is Mr. He?"

"I have something to say to Miss Kou." He Qingxiao didn't play tricks.

He knew that the seemingly calm girl in front of him must be anxious.

Xinyou invited He Qingxiao to the reception room.

There are a few apricot blossoms in the pot-bellied blue vase by the window in the reception room, which are delicate and bright, and the spring is coming.

He Qingxiao took another look before he sat down opposite Xin You.

Two cups of clear tea were placed in front of the two of them, and as Liu Zhou, who delivered the tea, retreated, there were only two of them left in the small reception room, and the subtle strangeness caused by not seeing each other for more than two months suddenly disappeared.

Xin You held the teacup and asked, "Did Mr. He report that you are here today?"

"Reported. I brought back the personal and physical evidence from the south, and I have presented it to Jinshang."

Xin You clenched the teacup tightly, waiting for the person opposite to speak.

He Qingxiao saw that her slightly pale face was tense like he had never seen before.

When the spring day came, she was much cleaner than before he left Beijing.

He Qingxiao was a little depressed, but he didn't show it at all, covering up his excess emotions: "Today, today, I called Gu Changbo to drink in Xiyuan, and Gu Changbo lost his manner in the wine and was sentenced to eighty. ..."

Xin You couldn't hide her astonishment: "Uncle Gu Chang is dead?"

She thought about it in every possible way, but she didn't dare to attack Uncle Guchang lightly. That man could kill him with just a single word of impoliteness after drinking.

The power of the Son of Heaven can be seen from this.

However, that person couldn't wait to take Gu Changbo's life, was it for his mother, or for Concubine Shu's mother and son?

Stopping at Uncle Guchang, maybe that's what that person wants to see the most?
Xin You bit her lip, letting the pain spread, and heard the person opposite say "Sorry".

"Miss Kou, I mentioned Mr. Xin to the present."
