Chapter 106

"I see. The answer is" Qin Ru! " Su Hao opened his eyes, pulled his thoughts out of his memory and said firmly.

The man in charge of exchanging lantern riddle prizes was stunned for a moment, and then he congratulated suhao with a smile. He invited her to the back hall to get the high prize.

Su Hao in everyone's envious eyes, calmly with the guy to the second floor.

In the best view of the next window, there sat an old man in Xuanyi who was enjoying tea leisurely and hale and hearty, with two servants around him.

In addition, the whole second floor was quiet and there were no extra people present.

The man took suhao to the second floor and stepped down.

Su Hao straightened her clothes and gave the old man a big gift. She said in a loud voice, "students, please say hello to this adult."

The old man was slightly surprised and said with a smile, "you little girl have a good eye, but how can you just guess that I am an official instead of a rich businessman who is idle and idle to buy fun?"

The old man can see Su Hao's real gender at a glance, and Su Hao shows himself generously.

Su Hao smiles confidently and says: "how can an ordinary rich businessman have this bearing? And the brocade forging with black gold and cloud pattern on your clothes is exactly the pattern I designed myself. Since its implementation, it has only sold two pieces, and the others have been bought by the weaving Bureau, which purchases tribute goods in the palace. Therefore, I dare to guess that this gentleman's official position in the court is not low. "

"Flexible mind, good vision." The old man showed his admiration.

"Did you guess that riddle yourself?" The old man suddenly changed the topic. He still had a kind smile on his mouth, but he couldn't hide the strength and sharpness of his brow.

"If you're an adult, my father had the same problem when he was a little girl, so it's not a little girl's guess." Su Hao replied honestly.

"Your father is..." the old man suddenly asked with excited eyes.

"My father is just an ordinary private school teacher. It's not easy for my daughter to say my father's name directly. She can only say his surname is Su and his name is Qin Ru!"

A servant passed by Su Hao, who was as light as a swallow. He handed a pamphlet to the old man respectfully.

"Have you ever seen your father have a Kirin jade pendant?" The old man looked at it at a glance, and asked in a trembling voice.

"Er..." Su Hao saw that the old man's eyes were looking forward to it. He didn't look malicious, so he took out the jade pendant that had been close to him for more than ten years from his skirt. "If you don't mean this one, there should be nothing else."

The old man took over the jade pendant. It was just a piece of ordinary jade. On the front, there was a unicorn with auspicious clouds on its feet, and on the back, there were four words "namo Yunxian".

Although the notch is not clear, the old man clearly knows the original appearance of this jade pendant, because its owner was the old man!

"I've been looking for him for so many years, but he doesn't want to meet me on his own initiative. Who would have thought that he even changed his surname in order to avoid my search?" The old man sighed and was very disappointed.

The old man motioned suhao to sit down and told her a distant story.

Twenty five years ago, when the emperor was getting older, the princes under him were expanding their ambitions and constantly ganged up to fight for the supreme position.

At that time, the old man was one of the most unpopular princes. He didn't want to participate in the muddy water, but his brothers deceived others too much.

The old man, also known as the eleventh Prince of the time, situnan, simply fought back, and with the help of Qin Ru, a Southern talent who went to Beijing for the examination, he quickly established himself in the court.

But situ Nan was not as cruel as other princes after all. In a plot, he was almost framed and his reputation was ruined.

At that time, the Minister of rites, Qin Ru, the counselor of situ Nan, was loyal to him all the time. He helped situ Nan block the blame and stigma, and was sentenced to death.

Situ Nan used the golden cicada to get rid of the shell and exchanged the identity of a death prisoner with Qin Ru. In order to ensure that this incident will not be discovered, Qin Ru asked herself to stay away from the capital, and before leaving, she left a lot of suggestions on current events and the future development of the country.

Situ Nan was very moved by Qin Ru's loyalty. He took off the jade pendant from his waist and gave it to Qin Ru. He promised to reuse it after he ascended the throne and use it as a certificate.

Five years later, situ Nan realized his goal and became the most powerful man in the world. In order to fulfill his original promise, he issued the imperial list to rectify Qin Ru's name and asked him to become an official in the court, but there was no response.

Qin Ru is a careful man, and he can always find a new way to deal with things!

At the beginning, all the strategies he left were proved to be very useful suggestions one by one. Situ Nan regretted the talents and sent out the imperial list again, but there was still no news.

However, whenever the emperor was worried about important state affairs, there was a brocade bag hanging in the place where the imperial list was published to provide advice for situ Nan.

Until three years ago, the brocade bag never appeared again.

Situ Nan has always felt sorry for Qin Ru and worried that something might happen to him. So he came to Qin Ru's birthplace to see if he could find some clues.

As a riddle, the poem was written when they were joking. It just implies Qin Ru's name. Situ Nan is also ready to take a chance, did not expect to let him wait for Qin Ru's daughter Su Hao!

As for Gu Yihang, I have to say that he is very lucky. After his father's death, he once received Qin Ru's guidance and saw Qin Ru's unfinished national policy.

It happened that the problems in the Imperial Palace examination were related to these. Gu Yihang shamelessly took those strategies for himself, and showed great grace in front of situ Nan. He was also highly valued by situ Nan, and even asked him to teach his favorite sixth prince.

When Su Hao heard of these things, he was also very sad. Who could have thought that a small private school in Huaicheng could have something to do with the emperor thousands of miles away.

When Su Hao just said the answer downstairs, there was a dark guard to check Su Hao's identity. If it is not to confirm that Su Hao is not dangerous, how can situ Nan meet her so casually?

"I already know about the Li family. I'll order someone to deal with it." He promised.

Although it is common for Gu Yihang to use his power for personal gain in officialdom, who let him cheat the emperor first?

Gu Yihang also has a good-looking face, which can scare people. He has no talent. It would be strange if situ Nan could continue to tolerate it!

The prison lost two prisoners in a row, and caused smallpox infection, which made the prison guards panic and have no intention to guard.

Gu Yihang had no choice but to follow Su Hao's original method of suppressing smallpox in Li's house, and then burn all the corpses to control the matter.

But is suhao related to another escaped prisoner? Gu Yihang lowered his eyelids and thought deeply.

Outside the window, a pigeon landed in front of Gu Yihang's book case. Gu Yihang untied the secret letter tied to his leg, and his face became ugly gradually.

After a while, a man in a black cloak came into Gu Yihang's room and closed the door.

It was in the middle of summer, but he was very suspicious.

"Are you sure he's here?" Said the mysterious man in his cloak, hoarse, with grim malice.

Gu Yihang frowned at his voice and didn't say much after all: "it has been confirmed that he has arrived in Huaicheng. Tomorrow, the master will come in person. You just need to be responsible for what you do. Don't let me feel that you are not worth the price I pay."

"Jie Jie," said the mysterious man with two strange laughs. The ugly voice reminds people of the unknown crows brought by the noisy graveyard, "what price do you pay? Isn't that the loss of a little lover? You think I'll be grateful if you get me out of jail? "

With a sneer, the mysterious man suddenly put out a hand as thin as a skeleton and pinched Gu Yihang's neck: "when I came out, you were not born. You should be glad I'm in a better temper now. "

Gu Yihang struggles powerlessly, and his eyes are full of panic and prayer. Where is the image of a gentle young master.

"Well, a fake is a fake after all." The mysterious man was so bored with his reaction that he threw Gu Yihang aside.

All of a sudden, his voice was cold and he snapped, "who's out there?"

Gu Yihang didn't care about his pain. He opened the door and didn't see anyone.

In the face of Gu Yihang's shrinking questioning eyes, the mysterious man gave a cold hum: "he just breathed more suddenly, which made me realize."

Gu Yihang didn't think that the mysterious person would make fun of it. He said seriously, "I don't usually have people to wait on me here. If there were people just now, I'm afraid I could only be the sixth prince."

"I hear he's your student? How dare you give up? " The mysterious man sneered.

"Don't say it's a student. Even if my father gets in my way, I can kill him." Gu Yihang raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth and said.

"Ha ha ha, I thought that only the Tians were the most ruthless. I didn't expect that you would let me go. Very good, very good! " Mysterious person does not distinguish tone of laughter way, hoarse voice let a person listen to scalp numb.

Situ Yue hid in the corner not far from them, covered his mouth to avoid making a sound, but his bright eyes were full of tears, full of sadness and panic.

At noon that day, the house where the imperial envoy stayed was patronized by the thief. Gu Yihang was furious and ordered that the bold thief must be caught.

Huaicheng is not big. There is only one county magistrate, even the biggest official here.

Situ Yue had no way to ask for help, for fear that the magistrate would be bribed by Gu Yihang.

What's more, he used Gu Yihang's identity as a student to go out of the Palace this time. If he rashly exposed his identity as a prince, he might bring more disaster to himself.

Situ Yue was hiding in a big basket of things in the alley. He was relieved to see that the Yamen officers didn't notice him.
