famous eldest daughter

Chapter 118 Two Brothers
When Gu Yuqing heard this, she immediately wanted to turn around. Xiao Duo was dead, so she should be able to move.

But she tried her best, but she still couldn't move her body.

At this moment, another voice sounded from behind, still a male voice, "Brother, we have finally avenged my sister's revenge."

After saying that, the footsteps of the two of them leaving could be heard.

Gu Yuqing was shocked when she heard this.

The elder sister they were talking about must be herself, but... she clearly only has one younger brother, why are there two people calling her elder sister now? But he found that he couldn't make a sound at all.

I was sweating profusely, my breathing became louder and louder, and suddenly I felt my body being shaken, "Miss, Miss..."

Gu Yuqing suddenly woke up from her dream when a wishful voice came to her ears.

His body was already dripping with cold sweat, and Gu Yuqing's heart clenched as she clutched the summer cool brocade quilt covering her body.

The dream was so real and vivid, so real that it didn't seem like a dream, but a real reality.

Taking the hot tea handed over by Ruyi, Gu Yuqing took a sip, and the warm tea fragrance spread across her throat, and Gu Yuqing felt better.

It's a pity that in the dream, she didn't see her brother after all.

With a long sigh, Gu Yuqing was served by Ruyi and got up to wash up. Just after breakfast, Jixiang returned from Qingquan Temple.

"Miss, Abbot Taihong is not at Qingquan Temple. After asking around, it seems that Abbot Taihong has not returned to the temple since the day we left."

As the auspicious voice fell, Gu Yuqing's heart moved slightly, but she never replied... Her father also left the Beihuang Mountain Taoist Temple that day and has been missing ever since.

Could it be that the two of them are really together?

But in the memory of her previous life, Gu Yuqing did not remember that her father had a good relationship with Abbot Taihong.

His father was a fierce general in the court. Although he no longer participated in government affairs after his mother's death, he was from the same school as Abbot Taihong, who was from the Xiaosu sect of Jianghu sect.

Feeling full of doubts in his heart but unable to find a breakthrough for a while to unravel the mess covered by the mist, Gu Yuqing simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it, got up and walked towards the flower hall.

All the things that needed to be ordered were given, all the problems that needed to be solved were solved one by one, and all the women were dismissed. Gu Yuqing walked out of the flower hall and stood under the corridor in front of the door, staring blankly at the flowers and plants that were a little tired under the scorching sun. Lost in thought.

My thoughts are still stuck in that dream.

At this moment, the steward led Chang Shun, who was in front of Xiao Duo, over.

"His Highness asked the servant to tell the eldest lady that he will seize Lu Jiuzheng's private residence in the suburbs of Beijing in the afternoon." Chang Shun lowered his hand and said respectfully.

His eyes quickly scanned Gu Yuqing's delicate face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how could the appearance and temperament of two young ladies from the same house be so different.

The temperament of the second Miss Gu is not even as good as the good fortune in front of the eldest Miss Gu.

Hearing this, Gu Yuqing tightened her grip on the handkerchief in her hand. Xiao Duo's movements were really fast, and he sneered in his heart. On the contrary, if he didn't move quickly, wouldn't it be incompatible with his eager for quick success and quick gain?

"I understand. You go back and tell His Highness the Second Prince that I will be waiting for you in advance." Ruyi rewarded Changshun with a red seal, and the steward led Changshun down.

After a brief tidying up, Gu Yuqing took Ji Xiang Ruyi and went straight to Lu Jiuzheng's private house in the suburbs of Beijing. When they went there, soldiers from Xiao Duo's house had already surrounded the house, but Xiao Duo hadn't arrived yet.

Perhaps Xiao Duo had given instructions in advance. When they saw Gu Yuqing coming, the guards let her in without blinking.

The door to the secret room had not yet been opened. Gu Yuqing picked up a stone bench under the shade of a tree in the courtyard and sat down. He held a piece of wicker in his hand and played with it on the stone table next to him.

At this moment, there are no servants of the Lu family in the house. They must have been controlled and locked up somewhere to be punished.

After waiting for about half a stick of incense, Xiao Duo's figure in a pine green brocade robe appeared in Gu Yuqing's sight. In addition to Chang Shun, there was also Zhao Bingde, the minister of Dali Temple, behind him.

Gu Yuqing had a sneer on her lips. It turned out that at this time, Zhao Bingde had already lined up on Xiao Duo's side.

When he arrived, Gu Yuqing stood up and saluted. Xiao Duo smiled and said, "Have you been waiting for a long time?" His tone was so familiar that Zhao Bingde, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but flash his eyes, and when he looked at Gu Yuqing again, he felt a little more meaningful. Deep flavor.

Knowing that Xiao Duo had bad intentions, Gu Yuqing smiled indifferently, glanced at Zhao Bingde, and said, "Why is Mr. Zhao here too?"

Zhao Bingde was about to answer, but Xiao Duo stopped him with a wave of his hand, and said to himself: "The matter of Lu Jiuzheng has not been verified yet. My father will temporarily imprison him in Dali Temple to await investigation. When the stolen goods here are confirmed, he will be moved to the Ministry of Punishment." .”

Xiao Duo didn't answer Gu Yuqing's question directly, and Gu Yuqing didn't mind either. He tilted his head slightly and said with some confusion: "As far as I know, Dali Temple is not responsible for recording stolen goods, right?"

His light eyes crossed Zhao Bingde's face, fell on Xiao Duo, and suddenly smiled, "His Royal Highness the Second Prince must have forgotten the role of supervisory history."

Zhao Bingde's face suddenly shook with embarrassment.

Xiao Duo didn't expect that Gu Yuqing would hold on to this question, so the corner of his eye twitched, and he said, "Dali Temple is not responsible for making records, but Miss Gu should be clear about the seriousness of Lu Jiuzheng's matter. Zhao Bingde came here in person, I'm afraid it will be difficult for a supervisor to hold such a big position."

Gu Yuqing seemed to be really fooled by Xiao Duo's words, and smiled and stopped talking.

Xiao Duo breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhao Bingde, who was standing behind Xiao Duo, raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

She was clearly just a 13-year-old girl, but the way she spoke and looked at people made him so nervous.

The matter was revealed, Xiao Duo took the lead and walked into the house. The trap was touched and the secret door popped open. Xiao Duo was about to step in when Gu Yuqing stopped him with a cold face: "Your Highness, has he forgotten us?" Is it an agreement?"

First, he was pestered by Gu Yuqing about Zhao Bingde in the courtyard, and now he was questioned coldly by her in front of Zhao Bingde. Xiao Duo was immediately unhappy, his face sank, and he said: "Why did Miss Gu say this? If this king breaks his promise, why would he send Changshun to report to the government today?"

Gu Yuqing sneered after hearing this and said: "Then your highness is just bullying me, a female prostitute, and doesn't understand anything!"

Xiao Duo's heart suddenly moved, and the corners of his eyes trembled.

"What appointment your Highness made with me? I'm afraid His Highness should still remember it in his heart. However, His Highness really thinks that it is really good for Mr. Zhao to go in together at this time? What kind of situation is His Highness trying to put me into?" Gu Yuqing said in a cold tone. The duh duh.

The muscles on Xiao Duo's cheekbones jumped when his thoughts were revealed.

He invited Zhao Bingde here just to get Dali Temple involved in the matter and to let Zhao Bingde see the gold bricks on that wall in person. In this way, in the future, he could promise a huge profit and let Zhao Bingde help repurchase the gold bricks from Gu Yuqing. Take back.
