Dressed as a vicious step-sister
Chapter 40
In Yanhe County's Patriarch's Mansion, Gu Qingzheng sat on a high seat and looked at the county magistrate Rong who was kneeling on the ground. It shows that he is in a very bad mood now.
He stared at the kneeling human below and said, "What's missing?"
The county magistrate Rong was covered in cold sweat from fright, and he replied tremblingly: "Yes, it is a family heirloom of the lower official's family. I think it must be a thief greedy for treasure."
Gu Qingzheng didn't talk nonsense, and then asked: "What heirloom?"
At this moment, County Magistrate Rong hesitated a bit. He didn't know what to say, and he didn't dare to honestly say that the things he lost might be related to the previous dynasty, and the so-called family heirloom...was given to his father by the Li family. of.
He himself doesn't know what's going on?Only his father held on to him before he died, and his eyeballs almost popped out, just for one sentence, that is: "Don't let that piece of jade be delivered to any royal family, wait for them to come and get it."
"If my son doesn't obey his father's last words, the Rong family will only end up being executed."
A word full of copycats scared him down the spot. After so many years, how could he dare to talk about that piece of jade again, he almost forgot what it looked like, and just wanted to hide it tightly.
And the person who came to the door in person today was King Qin.
At first, County Magistrate Rong was still hesitating whether to hand over the things to the prince, but he didn't expect that the family heirloom would be stolen by thieves after only one night.
Hey, what a bad luck he is.
The magistrate Rong had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, my father got this jade from the uncle of the family. Before his death, the old man asked me to keep it and said that someone would come to get it. The lower officials didn't understand it at the time."
Now that it has been stolen, maybe this item has been returned to its original owner.
After finishing speaking, he wiped off his sweat. He, who has been in the officialdom for many years, still mixed in with true and false words, just to save his family's life.
Gu Qingzheng obviously didn't believe it, he thought for a moment in silence and then asked: "Which family uncle?"
The county magistrate then confessed: "The Li family, the former imperial censor of Mrs. Li."
As soon as this word comes out.
However, Gu Qingzheng's expression changed extremely quickly, but he quickly suppressed it, but the iron ball on the palm of his hand became tighter and tighter, and it seemed that it was about to be crushed.
In the end, Xu thought of something powerless, but he let go, and the iron ball in his hand fell off and rolled to the knee of County Magistrate Rong, so that County Magistrate Rong could still see the faintly cracked lines of the iron ball, and he was even more frightened. I dare not raise my head.
How can the county magistrate know who Li Tai Yushi's family is after saying these words?
Isn't that the family where the prince married his wife?
Although the deceased princess was extremely unfavored in Li Yushi's family, her fate was very good. After winning the favor of King Qin, marrying her back home and loving her was the end of the day.
It's a pity, it's a pity that the second child was dystocia, and the princess still didn't have the blessing to enjoy her life.
The magistrate Rong saw King Qin's face was very ugly.
He couldn't help persuading him: "Your Majesty, although the object is a relic that Li Yushi handed over to my father, over the years, the subordinate officials have done their duty and tried their best to protect Li Yushi's things.
"Then why didn't you hand it over to me personally?" Gu Qingzheng asked back.
The county magistrate Rong said with a bitter face: "Before my father died, I gave the subordinate officials a death sentence. If I handed over at that time, I would have a bad reputation of being unfilial. What's more, the situation at that time forced the subordinate officials not to dare report."
"what's the situation?"
"The third prince also sent people to inquire about the tone of the subordinate again and again."
After the words came out, the atmosphere became even more tranquil, and even the air exuded an inexplicable sense of oppression.
County magistrate Rong didn't even dare to raise his head.
After waiting for a long time, he didn't know what Gu Qingzheng was thinking, he just waved his hand to let Magistrate Rong go down, while he stayed here quietly, thinking deeply.
After the magistrate Rong left, Lin Zhiqiu, an aide of the palace, came.
When he walked in, he saw that the prince had fallen into mourning, and his mood was quite... bad.
Lin Zhiqiu said: "My lord."
Gu Qingzheng looked up at him: "Zhiqiu, what's the matter?"
Lin Zhiqiu worried: "This subordinate has guessed a bit."
"Guess what?" Gu Qingzheng seemed very lethargic, he didn't want to talk at all, and only said a few words to save face because he was his confidant.
"The concubine's family has been checked by the subordinates for more than 20 generations."
These words made Gu Qingzheng completely uneasy, and he immediately glared at him: "Why are you investigating those? Who told you to meddle in your own business!"
Lin Zhiqiu knew that the prince would be angry, so he still said: "Li Yushi's family can originate from a second-rank official named Shangguan, who resigned early because of the subjugation of the emperor and excessive prostitution. Therefore, after the former dynasty fell, they also escaped a catastrophe."
"It's just that I don't know why I changed my surname to Li instead of Shangguan. My subordinates thought that the Shangguan family was afraid that Wei would hold them accountable, so they changed their surname just in case."
"But the more the subordinates searched, the more extraordinary things they discovered."
Gu Qingzheng immediately stood up, approached Lin Zhiqiu, looked into his eyes, and didn't hide anything, he knew in his heart that Lin Zhiqiu had found out all the truth.
He was impatient but endured and said: "Continue."
"Yes!"
Lin Zhiqiu continued: "In the history of Shangguan's family, there is a record of intermarriage among subjugated emperors. Although she is only a concubine in the respect room and has no humble position yet, that woman did give birth to a dragon son. A few days later, it was reported that Longzi left early because of his frailty and illness, and the Dead Emperor didn’t care about it, so he left it alone.”
"Afterwards, when the Dead Empire was broken, he killed all his concubines and children, exterminated his own population, and made everyone think that the Dead Emperor had become extinct."
"But now it seems that Li Yushi's ancestor changed his name in a hurry, and then handed the jade to Father Rong, I'm afraid it has some other purpose."
When Gu Qingzheng heard his eyelids twitch, his heart thumped, and even an inexplicable panic gradually came to his heart, thinking that the loss of the jade was the beginning of the crisis.
His tone was already tense: "Zhiqiu, do you have any other discoveries?"
Lin Zhiqiu looked around and closed the door directly, then walked to King Qin's side, and said in a voice that could be heard by two people: "As far as my subordinates know, Li Yushi did not have a life-threatening relationship with the Rong family. , How could it be possible to hand over the family heirloom to the Rong family, but Li Yushi did hand it over."
"And the reason for that is...."
"What is it?" Gu Qingzheng asked.
Lin Zhiqiu sighed and said, "My lord, you married Concubine Li, that's why Li Yushi decided to give the things to the Rong family in the same place. At the same time, he also knew that the Rong family belonged to you, so you should give it to the Rong family." It is equivalent to handing it over to you."
"Also, think about what magistrate Rong told you."
Gu Qingzheng quickly remembered that County Magistrate Rong had indeed said that Rong's father had confessed his last words before he died.
#This jade was obtained by my father from the uncle of the aristocratic family. Before his death, the old man asked me to keep the good things, saying that someone would come and get them. #
All the puzzles suddenly became clear, but the bloody reality was handed over to Gu Qingzheng.
Gu Qingzheng almost stared at Lin Zhiqiu with his eyes wide open. The look of shock, heartache, and disbelief intertwined together made his face very terrifying.
Lin Zhiqiu stopped talking.
Because all the answers are clear, what was stolen was not Li Yushi's jade, the heirloom of the Rong family, but the jade seal of the former subjugated country.
Moreover, the late Princess Li is likely to be the last bloodline left by the dead emperor, the dragon son.
And the concubine gave birth to a son and a daughter to the prince. It is conceivable...
Lin Zhiqiu bowed again and reminded: "Hey, my lord, please take the initiative to attack and confirm which side is the person who stole the jade. If necessary, please take the initiative to attack and don't need to recharge your energy."
Gu Qingzheng stood stiffly, his mind was already a little confused, his son was the legacy of the previous dynasty, and his daughter was also the legacy of the previous dynasty, but Nian'er and Zheng'er were both his children, and they were also grandchildren. The blood of Wei and the subjugated.
If someone with a heart grasps this point, it will be enough to kill Gu Qingzheng.
At that time, he may not even be able to keep his own children.
The more Gu Qingzheng thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more afraid he was of losing his child. He immediately waved his hands and said, "Mo Yuqiu, hurry up and track down the escaped thieves. Once caught, get back the things first."
In the end, Gu Qingzheng's eyes were extremely cold, full of killing intent: "Afterwards, shoot and kill!"
Soon two phantoms flashed nearby, bowed down to Gu Qingzheng like a ghost, and then disappeared in place like lightning. It can be seen that his lightness kung fu is high enough to defeat a hundred people with one.
Lin Zhiqiu never expected that Mo Qiu's two top masters would be sent out.
"My lord, don't you want to protect yourself?"
With a wave of Gu Qingzheng's hand, he said solemnly: "I am safe, but I am worried about those two children, so you can secretly dispatch experts to protect Nian'er and Zheng'er."
"Yes!" Lin Zhiqiu bowed.
In the West Pavilion, the imperial doctor finally treated the injury. The old man finally came out, but Gu Nian grabbed him to ask questions, and let the old man expose himself to the sun in this scorching heat.
The imperial physician said helplessly, "My lord, your friends in the world are fine."
"I know, you can prescribe me a blood-enriching prescription." Gu Nian said nervously.
"It's all right, so there's no need to make up for it too much." The imperial doctor has been pestered for almost half an hour, no matter how good-tempered he is, he can't help but blow his beard and stare.
Gu Nian said again: "Then give me a painkiller, what if she complains of pain?"
"Princess!" The imperial physician wanted to cry but had no tears.
I had no choice but to say: "That young lady doesn't need to be physically strong, the injury will heal in a few days."
"I think she's unconscious, she must have other injuries!" Gu Nian couldn't help but say something long-winded.
Let the imperial doctor stare directly and said: "That heroine's lip is broken, just apply some ointment."
As soon as this word comes out.
The princess who was chattering just now seemed to have been tapped on acupuncture points. She fell silent strangely, and let go of the wide sleeves that were holding the imperial doctor.
Although he didn't know what happened, the imperial doctor was happy for a while, and he was finally out of trouble, so he went to the Buddhist hall to report in desperation.
He didn't notice at all, his face was already flushed when standing at the door, limp and inexplicably shy like a ripe persimmon.
"What was I thinking, didn't I just kiss him so that I would be so ashamed." Gu Nian patted his hot face, trying to drive away his thoughts, and walked into his room.
