"There's nothing wrong with Lin's family. All the servants are brought out by the three generations of their ancestors and grandchildren. They all have work contracts and personal contracts. The general's house is also unlikely. Except for festivals, general Zhong is basically absent from home all year round. All his affairs are under the charge of an old housekeeper. Zhao and GUI, on the other hand, have no such motive. They are all from the Jinwang school. Recently, they are still looking for Jinwang everywhere. "
" what about the remaining four? The four families are all brothers of King Jin. Is it possible that they fought for power in secret
In the inn after midnight, only Bu Qingyi and Mo GUI were still burning the light and burning the oil. Mo GUI cut the shorter and shorter wick and played with the golden scissors: "it's possible. Among the four families, the most suspect is king Yong, the fourth prince. The total number of servants in King Yong's mansion is 1739, which is somewhat abnormal. A large number of them have never appeared on the list of servants. Some people say that there is a huge secret room in the basement of King Yong's mansion, and some people have heard the sound of torture and crying from below. "
Bu Qingyi gazed at the flickering candle, his eyes straight, and said to himself, "fourth Prince I don't seem to have heard much about it. Did he have a festival with King Jin? "
" it's not a festival, but the two people's ideas have always been different, which can be regarded as two opposing forces. Different from King Jin's steadiness and introspection, King Yong has a strong edge and strong action. With his consistent style, it's not impossible to kill King Jin. "
Bu Qingyi still hesitated: "how do those killers explain? How can a young prince keep so many killers? "
"I can't answer that question." Mo GUI rubbed his forehead and seemed to be a little tired. "Almost every family has its own secret and its own life-saving foundation, whether it's a royal family or an official. I have lived in the capital for so many years, but I haven't noticed the existence of a group of killers, which shows that all the actions of the other party are carried out in secret. If I want to know the specific situation, I can only confront him face to face. "
He turned his head and looked at the hourglass. The time was almost over. Bu Qingyi took back her sight, held her cheek with one hand, and looked at Mo GUI: "I've been running outside all day. Are you tired? It's not early. Go to bed early. "
"I believe you are considerate and gentle. I'm afraid I'll ask you some questions, right?" Mo GUI sneered and said, "tell me, what do you get there? In order to lead the Lord to appear, I specially packed the whole restaurant. It's rare to see you bleeding so much. Does it feel like a kind of flesh ache? "
At the mention of money, bu Qingyi's heart was bleeding with pain. She let out a faint sigh, and there was a bit of resentment in her eyes: "as soon as I say this, I want to hit people. He spent hundreds of taels of silver to invite a group of irrelevant idle people to eat and drink, but the others didn't come. Besides, I'm afraid that drinking will make things worse. I've drunk more than ten cups in total. I've seen that all the good wine has been drunk by others. Isn't it that I've lost my wife and lost my soldiers? All those wines are... "
Bu Qingyi's words didn't finish, but Mo GUI's high brow blocked her back. She forgot for a moment that she didn't drink freely. Mo GUI told her that she was not allowed to drink before she left this morning.
Although one is the chief of the cabinet and the other is the deputy chief of the cabinet, he failed to do what he had agreed. It is inevitable that he felt guilty. Bu Qingyi said bitterly: "in fact, it's not as many as a dozen cups. I just exaggerate. I drank seven or eight cups at most No, three or five Maybe only one or two cups... "
Click.
Mo GUI poured a cup of tea and put it heavily in front of Bu Qingyi.
"Drink."
Bu Qingyi sat, he stood; she looked up with a guilty heart, he looked down. The original atmosphere of the two changed completely because of those glasses of wine.
Drink too much wine, drink tea solution is also good. Bu Qingyi comforted himself and took up the cup. He drank the whole cup of tea clean.
She put down the cup, wiped her mouth, and pushed it back to Mo GUI: "this tea It's good to drink, but it's a little cold. "
"Is the wine hot?"
"No It's cool, too. "
"Well. Then don't be choosy. Drink tea. "
Mo GUI poured another cup of tea in front of her and looked at Bu Qingyi with a faint smile.
His smile has the strange ability to make people feel guilty. Some of Bu Qingyi dare not look at him. Clenching her teeth, she took the second cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.
Cold tea is really bitter
"Finished? Here, one more drink. "
“…… Mo, do you want to kill me? " Seeing his intention, bu Qingyi clapped the case and raised his eyes.
Mo GUI was not anxious or angry. He poured the third cup of tea with a casual expression: "if you drink too much wine, you can't drink too much tea? You can give me as many cups of tea as you drink tonight, or you won't touch another half drop of wine for the rest of your life. "
Bu Qingyi opened her mouth and wanted to argue for herself. When she thought about it, she found that she was really in the wrong. In the end, she was guilty and got the upper hand. She took a cup of tea and even dried more than ten cups of tea.
In the whole process, Mo GUI didn't say a word, just stood by and looked coldly.
"You can't get rid of the bad smell unless we treat it well and teach you some lessons." When Bu Qingyi finally finished drinking the tea, he spoke faintly, one hand fell on her back and patted her a few times. "Lead China has long said that your body is not suitable for drinking, don't take her words in the ear. It's my task to supervise you to stop drinking. If you are not satisfied, you should go to complain to him. "I'm kidding. I'm tired of it, right? It's better to let her drink ten more pots of tea than to complain to Qianhua!
Bu Qingyi shook her head and waved her hand, and quickly turned off the topic: "I have to make some noise. I have to get in touch with the behind the scenes as soon as possible. I want to go to the Palace tomorrow. First, the news of my return to the capital will spread faster. Second, I want to confirm some things with the emperor. "
"I know I can't stop you, but I still want to say - I don't agree that you have too much contact with the Lord." Mo GUI shook his head, and his tone was a little more serious than just now. "The Lord knows the relationship between you and Lord Gu. If Pei Zan's betrayal had something to do with the Lord, then he must have been wary of you. When he was able to get rid of his dissidents, he made a private agreement with Gu Ge Zhu to eradicate his political discord. Who knows how far he will go now in order to keep a secret? "
"I understand that's why I want to meet him even more."
Bu Qingyi lowered his head and held the cup in his hand unconsciously.
The establishment of the seven killers originated from an agreement between the emperor and Gu Chaoxi. The emperor would turn a blind eye to the killing on the way of Luan Xue pavilion's success in the world. Gu Chaoxi would set up a team of killers for the emperor, with top-level and strict style, to eradicate those courtiers he didn't need.
The above is bu Qingyi's full understanding of the origin of the seven murders and the relationship between Gu Chaoxi and the emperor. In addition, Gu did not disclose the details to her.
Before that, like many people, she thought that Pei Zan's betrayal originated from his yearning for fame and wealth. Later, she gradually found that the fame and wealth given to Pei Zan by the emperor was extraordinary, and the Emperor himself was a difficult role to deal with. Later, she began to wonder whether Pei Zan's betrayal was related to the emperor?
She vaguely remembers that not long before the rebellion, Gu Chaoxi vaguely mentioned that he did not want to have anything to do with the emperor. Is this the source of Gu's murder?
"If it's really related to the Holy One, do you want to be a regicide killer?"
Mo GUI's serious questioning gave way, and Qingyi was at a loss.
What if the emperor had ordered Pei Zan to betray Gu Chaoxi? Kill the emperor? How to make the Communist Party of China lose their heads?
"I'll think about it later. There's no final conclusion yet. There's no need to worry about a hypothesis." Bu Qingyi took a deep breath and stretched, "I have to continue to be a good bait tomorrow. I'll ask you to look for King Jin. The mask can be used repeatedly. I'll give you some clay glue later. You can do it by yourself tomorrow morning. "
See step green clothes yawn ready to go back to the room to rest, ink back to step forward to grasp her wrist. Bu Qingyi turned back in surprise and couldn't figure out where the unhappiness on his face came from.
"Next time I'll go out again, just use some ordinary faces. Don't be so beautiful." He has some strength in his hand and some warning in his words.
Step green Yi e eyebrow a Yang: "I depend on the face of real strength to knead, why not?"
"So many men are staring at you, eager to rush forward and eat you alive, don't you feel uncomfortable? I itch your hands and want to hit people. "
"What a vinegar smell Bu Qingyi mocked.
"You can laugh at me. As long as you don't mess with me in the future, you can laugh at me for the rest of your life."
Not to mention the bright candlelight flickering from time to time, the yellowing light shining on Mo GUI's side face made him look more handsome and sharp. Such a face that once made many aristocrats aspire to, coupled with his deep and affectionate expression at this time, it's really hard not to be moved.
Bu Qingyi couldn't find any jokes to dispel the strange atmosphere at the moment, so he could only slightly sidestep his head to avoid his sight, pretending to be relaxed: "do you have any complex with the capital? How can you become a saint of love as soon as you get to the capital? Do you want me to make your appearance more attractive and try to attract more young ladies from different families? "
"Do you think I'm joking?"
Mo GUI stepped forward, forcing Bu Qingyi to step back, but behind her was the door, and she had only half a step to step back.
We agreed to give each other some time. It's only a few days. How can we be so anxious again?
Bu Qingyi couldn't help but feel annoyed and tried to push him away. Unexpectedly, Mo GUI had already guessed what she was doing and grabbed her other wrist. The heavy weight of her body pushed Bu Qingyi back.
With a bang, bu Qingyi bumped against the door.
Her wrists were all held in her hands by Mo GUI, and she couldn't move at all; her back was close to the cold door, but his hot breath was on the side of her shoulder and ear, and it felt like he had just been drunk, impulsive and indifferent.
"I only promise you to take a good look at this relationship and make sure that I like you without any impurities. It doesn't mean I can let you indulge and give you the chance to be liked by anyone else. "
His breath was close to his ear, his voice was low, and he had irrefutable power.
"Anyone who looks at you more with bad intentions, and who dares to covet you, I will soften their bones with vinegar For example, someone with a surnameOn the post road hundreds of miles away, Shi tongzui sneezed loudly.
