Value peace

Chapter 70
Gu Xiyan sent Ding Cuiniang to Qixia Temple: "Go and inquire about that person named Qi Yuzhi, and find out what he has done in Qixia Temple, who he has met, and what background those people have..."

Ding Cuiniang nodded and left.

Gu Xiyan called Mo Ju again: "Go to Nanny Tian to get the house number and go out of the house, go to Hongshang in Dongshi to see how our clothes are doing, and take the opportunity to go to the Weiwu Escort. See if there is anything interesting in that escort agency!"

Mo Ju responded and left.

Whelan was looking around.

Gu Xiyan called her in: "What's the matter?"

Huilan smiled and said, "Just to see if there is any errand for the girl. If there is nothing else, I will go back to Da'an Square first."

The matter of Huilan's entry into the mansion has not been fully settled, mainly because during this period of time, the clan's mansion has completely refuted the matter of foreign orders for women to enter the palace. Mrs. Gu has no chance to enter the palace, and if Huilan enters the mansion, she must Get Cui Baoyi's consent.

If it was normal, Gu Xiyan wouldn't care, but now...

She smiled and said: "I'll send someone to talk to Da'an Fang. You are here, and I have a companion."

The corners of Whelan's mouth curled up involuntarily, with a very happy look on his face.

Turning around, Gu Xiyan told Duanniang: "Let Xinghong stay with her, I've invited people from the Liu family to help now, don't let Huilan see anything."

Duanniang nodded: "I understand, don't worry, girl!"

When Mo Ju came back, Gu Xiyan and Huilan were playing with money.

Xinghong smiled and said: "Mo Ju, where have you been? Why haven't you seen anyone all day!"

Mo Ju smiled at Xinghong, bowed his knees to Gu Xiyan and said back: "Girl, I went to Hongshang to get the skirt that the girl ordered, who knew that when I opened it, the peach-red gold-woven flower The webbing on the hem of the eight silk skirts loosened, and I had to ask the master in the shop to re-web. I waited for a long time but didn't get it done, and I was afraid that the girl would remember it, so I made an appointment tomorrow. Go get it."

Gu Xiyan's attention seemed to be attracted by the copper coins on the small table, she nodded casually: "Then you can go there tomorrow!"

Mo Ju went down.

At night, Mo Ju was on duty, and the two of them snuggled up on Gu Xiyan's small house-like eight-step bed and whispered: "...I went as the girl ordered, but I didn't dare to enter the door."

"Is there something strange?" Gu Xiyan asked.

"En." Mo Ju nodded, "There are a lot of people coming in and out, but they are all young men, and there are no women or children. I always feel that something is wrong, so I only dare to take a quick glance and leave."

"Good job." Gu Xiyan greatly praised, "In the future, you have to remember that no matter how important things are, they are not as important as your own life."

In the darkness, Mo Ju's black and white eyes shone brightly like gemstones: "I have to loosen the webbing on the skirt, and I will go again when I find a chance."

In the night, Gu Xiyan was silent for a long time before she said in a daze, "Let's talk about it depending on the situation. It's getting late, let's rest first!"

It was midnight when Ding Cuiniang came back, and Gu Xiyan screamed in fright when she woke her up, but before the scream escaped her throat, she felt a numbness around her neck, and her voice was silenced.

Gu Xiyan stared anxiously at Ding Cuiniang who was dressed like a chivalrous woman in black clothes and black trousers. After a while, Ding Cuiniang tapped Gu Xiyan's neck again. Gu Xiyan felt numb again, and then she hurriedly lightened He coughed lightly.

Fortunately, the sound is back.

Gu Xiyan said softly: "Come talk on the bed, it's safer."

Ding Cuiniang didn't hesitate, took off her shoes and got on Gu Xiyan's bed.

Gu Xiyan asked eagerly: "What's wrong?"

Ding Cuiniang said: "The person the girl mentioned has been found. He came to Beijing on February 21 this year, under the pseudonym Jiang Tianbao, worked as a bodyguard in the Weiwu Bodyguard Bureau, and often went to Qixia Temple to offer incense. I visited Qixia Temple on the 22th, 23th, [-]th, [-]th, [-]st, [-]nd, and [-]rd. In June, I went more frequently, almost every two or three days. , the last time he appeared in Qixia Temple was on July [-]st, and he never went there again. People from the Weiwu Escort Bureau claimed that Jiang Tianbao went to Liangdi with his darts. .”

"Who did he have close contacts with when he was in the Weiwu Escort?"

Ding Cuiniang answered clearly: "With a man named Qian Jia, this name is also a pseudonym. This person is actually Zhou Heyun, and people in the Jianghu gave him the nickname 'Junzijian', and he is one of the best masters in Jin. Except for him In addition, we also found Zhao San in the Mighty Escort, "One Palm Shaking the Universe", Li Chen, the "Little White Dragon", Li Xian, the eldest of the Li brothers in the "Three Heroes of Guanzhong", Luo Yutang, the "Double Hooks of Desperation". Several people are in the mighty bodyguard bureau under aliases, and they were not in the bodyguard bureau when we went to investigate, and they said they went to the bodyguard bureau with Qi Yuzhi."

Ghost letter!
Ding Cuiniang didn't believe it either, and said: "There are good and bad people among these people, and they don't have much contact with each other. They are all well-known figures, and we are very surprised to be able to get together."

Gu Xiyan couldn't help but glanced at Ding Cuiniang, and asked, "Us, do you mean the Liu Mansion or the place where you used to be?"

Ding Cuiniang remained silent.

Gu Xiyan smiled and said: "Silence is also a kind of answer. Don't get me wrong, make one more friend and go a long way, maybe one day we have a fateful meeting and you will help me again."

Ding Cuiniang smiled lightly and said, "What's the matter, girl, just find us through Master Qi!"

In other words, she rejected Gu Xiyan's olive branch.Gu Xiyan didn't pay much attention to it either. Originally, it was the first time we worked together, and Liu Zuocheng was the boss again... She quickly shifted her attention to Qi Maosheng's disappearance: "Do you know about Yan Guogong's family affairs?"

Ding Cuiniang hesitated.

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "Is there an additional fee for investigating this?"

"Miss, you're joking." Ding Cuiniang couldn't help but twitched her mouth when she heard this, "The wealthy family is mysterious, there are many rumors in the market, and there are many falsehoods."

Gu Xiyan admired Ding Cuiniang's pragmatic and truth-seeking style very much: "Then treat it as a casual chat."

Ding Cuiniang pondered for a while, and rationalized her thoughts, and said: "Qi Yuzhi's father, Qi Shu, is the former Duke of Yan's legitimate son, his biological mother is Mrs. Xu, the wife of Duke Yan, and Mr. Xu Zhenxu, a cabinet scholar and minister of rites, is his uncle. When Qi Yu was ten years old, he was named the son of Duke Yan. It is said that he was a talented man with both civil and military skills. He died of illness when he was 20 years old. At that time, Qi Yuzhi was only five years old. Inherited the title, but for some unknown reason, Qi Hao, who was 14 years old, was suddenly appointed, he is a bastard..."

Damn Qi Maosheng even made up his name!

Gu Xiyan's face was ashen.

However, the name Xu Zhen was very familiar, and Qi Yuzhi was unexpectedly Xu Zhen's nephew!
Ding Cuiniang didn't know why Gu Xiyan changed her face, she gave Gu Xiyan a strange look, and continued: "After Qi Hao succeeded Yan Guogong, he only had one daughter. He has two half-fathers, both The younger brother of the concubine, one named Qi Han, died of illness ten years ago without leaving any heirs; the other was named Qi Xiao, who gave birth to two daughters and a son. Now it seems that Qi Yuzhi has the highest status..."

So Qi Maosheng, no, Qi Hao said that Qi Yuzhi is the next successor of Duke Yan!

Gu Xiyan couldn't help hesitating.

Qi Yuzhi would never appear in Shengjing for no reason, just like Qi Hao would never get injured for no reason.The question is, is Qi Yuzhi related to Qi Hao's injury and disappearance?
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but looked at Ding Cuiniang blankly.

Ding Cuiniang lowered her eyelids to avoid her gaze.

She was invited by Liu Zuocheng, so if she has news, she will tell Liu Zuocheng first, and if Liu Zuocheng agrees, then she will tell herself!
Gu Xiyan's heart was like a mirror, and she asked, "What did Qi Ye say?"

Ding Cuiniang said: "Master Qi is also worried. It would be fine if Qi Yuzhi was rescued by those people, but if not...then the Liu family would have offended both the court and Duke Yan Qi Hao."

Gu Xiyan was stunned.

They misunderstood.

It turned Qi Hao and Qi Yuzhi upside down.

This damn Qi Hao not only lied to her, but also lied to Liu Zuocheng.

Should I explain it clearly to Liu Zuocheng?

Gu Xiyan looked up hesitantly, but saw Ding Cuiniang's sharp eyes.

Her heart trembled, and she swallowed back the words she was going to say abruptly.

Ding Cuiniang was invited by the Liu family to investigate this matter, it is not a simple role in itself!After passing this news, Qi Maosheng's situation might be even more dangerous. After all, the importance of Duke Yan's nephew and Duke Yan himself is very different...

Gu Xiyan couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said, "It's a big loss!"

Ding Cuiniang couldn't help smiling.

Gu Xiyan sighed, let's do this for now!

She was leaning on the big pillow, and her ring finger was gently drawing small circles on the thin quilt. Ding Cuiniang sat cross-legged beside her quietly. The room was silent, only the chime clock was ticking. .

After a long time, Gu Xiyan sighed: "You have worked hard, go and rest first. I will trouble you to visit the Weiwu Escort tomorrow!"

Ding Cuiniang left without a sound.

The danger of the matter has exceeded my imagination, and Mo Ju can no longer interfere.It has been three days since the incident, if something happened to Qi Maosheng, it would be too late, if nothing happened, then he should show up for the prisoner offering on July [-]th.

Thinking of this, Gu Xiyan couldn't help but took out the private seal and rubbed it in her hands.

Is this really just a private seal?

She thought of Qi Maosheng's melancholy and vicissitudes of face under the moonlight that night.

Is it really so simple to let her go to Yandi just to worry about her situation?

If Qi Maosheng was killed by Qi Yuzhi...

Thinking of this possibility, Gu Xiyan felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Do you still want me to give this private seal to Qi Yuzhi, so that he can inherit the title smoothly like icing on the cake?

What good does it do me to accept enemies as relatives?
In the flash of flint and lightning, Gu Xiyan was enlightened.

What good does it do me!
Never knowing the truth, taking Qi Yuzhi as her reliance, and living a life of ignorance with Qi Hongluan under his wings...

No, no, no.It will not be like this.

Qi Maosheng is not such a simple person!
He didn't tell the truth to himself, even his name was fake, how could, how could he go to such lengths for a person who doesn't even know each other!
He must have no other choice, so he gave his private seal to himself, and finally lured himself to go to Yandi to hand it to Qi Yuzhi...

No, no, no.At that time, when he said he saw Qi Yuzhi in Qixia Watch, the expression on Qi Maosheng's face was astonished and dignified.He is a very restrained person, if he is not too surprised, he will definitely not show it on his face...

No, no, no.When he met him for the first time, he threatened himself with a sword around his neck, and forced himself to deliver a letter even though he knew it was dangerous. He was a complete bastard, a complete liar...

All of a sudden, the ups and downs came one after another!
