Chapter 160 Embroidered Clothes Messenger

After Gu Fan left the city, Gu Yuchu sent Shu Yuan back to the Qin Guan.

"elder sister."

At the moment when she seemed to have something to say but turned around silently, Shu Yuan finally shouted.

"Jingheng." She choked with sobs, extremely surprised, "Don't you hate me anymore?"

"When did I ever hate you?" Shu Yuan obviously didn't admit it.

Gu Yuchu lowered his head and laughed. The huge stone hanging in his heart finally fell, feeling extremely relaxed.

"Is it because I didn't come back to Dongqi, or because you gave up on that person?" Shu Yuan thought for a moment and asked the question in his heart directly.

"You actually know everything?"

Gu Yuchu was shocked. She suddenly realized that she seemed to be the only one who had been kept in the dark from beginning to end. She couldn't help but frown and asked, "Who are you working for now? Who is Xiao Ling?!"

"We'll talk about this later. Answer me first."

"If you don't show up, I won't go back." She lowered her head and thought for a while, then met her brother's earnest eyes and answered affirmatively.

Since you have made a decision before, you should give yourself a decent explanation.

"Seriously?!" Shu Yuan excitedly grabbed her shoulders and finally showed a sincere smile after so many days.

"You won't regret it in the future?"

"Of course I take it seriously and I will never regret it." Gu Yuchu confirmed again.

This is a promise she made to her brother and to herself.

"If sister had made up her mind earlier, why would I have avoided you until today?"

"Why on earth are you hiding from me? I have been looking for you for a long, long time." Gu Yuchu couldn't hold it back anymore and punched his brother hard, with complaints in his eyes.

Shu Yuan covered his chest and smiled silly, like a child who had eaten enough food and had candy.

"I thought you were only addicted to love and forgot about the hatred of destroying your family."

"When did I forget?!" Gu Yuchu was helpless.

"Then I asked you to make that handwriting public, but you didn't!"

"Wang Yujin?! Is it you?" Gu Yuchu frowned, trying to remember.

"Only that one time it was me."

"Who are you working for?"

"Sixteen years ago, I was taken to Beiling by my uncle. I was ambushed by He and Huai'en, but they were not bandits, but secret guards of He He. They wanted to detain me and blackmail my mother into serving He He. In times of crisis, my mother’s senior brother came in time, snatched me away from those people, and took me back to Yunjing.”

"Le Jia Huanyu!" Gu Yuchu gritted his teeth angrily. Before Le Jia Huanyu was on his deathbed, he clearly told himself that Jing Heng died at the hands of bandits, and that his mother was the key to disrupting the Dongqi situation back then. It was He He A hero of the country.

"Is my mother's senior brother from Beiling?" she asked.

"Yes, his name is Shu Guanfeng, and he and his mother are embroiderers."

"The Messenger of Embroidered Clothes? He is the Messenger of Embroidered Clothes who is responsible for secretly reporting on assassinations in the Northern Dynasty? So... are you too?"

Shu Yuan nodded.

"Is the mother's surname really Lejia?" Gu Yuchu hesitated for a while and then asked.

"Yes, her real name is Lejia Quyang." Gu Yuchumuna took a step back, frowned, and complained: "Since you already knew the truth and where I was, why didn't you tell me earlier? ! Is it fun for you to join forces one by one to trick me around?"

The resentment in her heart rushed into her head in an instant, and she was so angry that she almost cried. For so many years, she had been carrying everything stupidly, racking her brains to find out the truth, but her brother was actually standing in the light, struggling like this but indifferent. , and then forced myself to look for him all over the world, which is really ridiculous.

"Yoshifu has been looking for news about you all these years, but he has found nothing. It was only after the alliance between the four countries that we found out that you were actually married to Qi Jian."

"Nonsense! With the strength of the Embroidered Clothes Messenger, how could it take so long to find someone!" Gu Yuchu obviously didn't buy this explanation.

"Sister, do you know why the Yuchi clan was implicated in the Northern Qi Army's rebellion?" Shu Yuan frowned and talked about the past.

"The Yuchi clan has deep roots and has good relations with the King of Northern Qi. Emperor Ming's fear is old and he has long wanted to get rid of it!"

"Not only that, our mother is the most outstanding embroidered messenger in the Northern Dynasty. She sneaked into Dongqi to spy on the national situation and established a huge information transmission network in Qidu City." Speaking of his mother, Shu Yuan's eyes were filled with pride. .

"Is she being used by both Beiling and Hehe at the same time?" Gu Yuchu asked tremblingly. This question had been bothering her for a long time.

"Of course not!" Shu Yuan immediately denied, with a firm tone that left no room for doubt.

"After the restoration of Hehe, the country's power declined. Lejia Huanyu found her mother and hoped that she could secretly convey the news between Beiling and Dongqi and help Hehe survive. However, her mother had long been separated from Lejia due to the death of her grandfather. The clan broke up and they didn’t want to be complicit in it. So Le Jia Huanyu worked tirelessly to inform Dong Qi of her mother’s identity in exchange for Emperor Ming’s support.”

"That's why my mother sent someone to take you and me back to Beiling in advance. Was she afraid that Le Jia's return to Yu would be detrimental to us? But I refused to leave, so my mother had to make other arrangements."

Gu Yuchu muttered to herself. She recalled carefully that when the officers and soldiers ransacked the house, it was her mother who set the house on fire, causing the whole mansion to panic. It was this kind of cover that allowed the servants to take her and Yu Xin away smoothly. Her mother was willing to die for her!

But Ke Lajia Huanyu confused right and wrong in this way. Gu Yuchu clenched his fist tightly, regretting that he could not cut off his hand with his own hands.

"After Emperor Ming found out, he first stood still, but secretly figured out the spies planted by Beiling's inner court in Dongqi and the method of transmitting information. Then he took advantage of the Northern Qi king's rebellion and launched an attack on the Yuchi family when they raided his comrades, and eradicated Beiling in one fell swoop. Since then, almost all the lurking Dongqi embroidered messengers have been killed. Because of this, and Qiji’s deliberate cover-up, no news about you has been found for many years. Until the Four Nations Alliance, you After being falsely accused and imprisoned, I found out that the concubine of King Qin is actually you!" Shu Yuan was obviously still brooding over the fact that his sister married the son of his enemy.

"Then why didn't you say it later?"

"I knew that my sister was married to Qi Jian, and I was really angry. But then I thought about it. With you in the court, there is hope that the family's family will be overturned, so I am not in a hurry to get to know you. Who would have thought that you would be obsessed with love and realize it later, if not I force you, but you probably don’t know how long it will take! Maybe you have long forgotten the misfortune of your family."

"I do not have!"

Gu Yu's eyes were red with anger, but she didn't want to argue with her brother. She was indeed in love, and after realizing it later, she fully believed that that person could help her clear up the old case.

Seeing her like this, Shu Yuan felt that he had gone too far. He knew how difficult it was for his sister these years, so his tone softened: "Besides, I gave you a reminder, and I didn't see you going to Yunjing to look for me. .”

Gu Yuchu thought for a while, then realized later: "It was you who placed the first crescent-shaped warm stone in the palace? After the battle of sealing the city, was it your intention to pass by each other on the streets of Qiongzhou? And the ambush at the foot of Qiyun Mountain!"

"The cobblestones were placed by Prince Ling. I deliberately flashed in front of you on the streets of Qiongzhou. The ambush at the foot of Qiyun Mountain was also my fault after I knew you rushed to Sanxing Academy."

"You're a good boy!"

Gu Yuchu's face immediately changed as she was thrust into her waist, and the anger in her heart choked her throat. Then she calmed down, calmed down, and continued to ask: "So, the accidental collision with Lan Ye was also intentional? "

"The first time was really an accident. I was stolen from the jade token at the Mid-Autumn Festival Fair, and she happened to see and follow me. You were set up by the Four Nations Alliance, and I found out the relationship between Lanye and you, so The second time in Hehe, I deliberately led her to talk to me, because I wanted to use her to tell you that I was in Qiongzhou." Shu Yuan pouted, feeling very guilty thinking that he had been setting up his sister for so long.

"Who is Xiao Ling?"

"I only know that he is Prince Ling's most trusted aide and the leader of the Embroidered Clothes Messengers. Everyone respects him. I was stubborn about your feelings for Qi Jian and refused to recognize you. He persuaded me for a long time. But since this is a family matter between you and me, I can’t let him interfere. If he hadn’t written to me at the night market before and ordered me to come quickly, I would have delayed it for another year and a half so that you could have a taste of this. It feels like sitting on pins and needles!”

"You bastard!" After hearing this, Gu Yuchu couldn't hold it in anymore, so he didn't care about maintaining the appearance of a virtuous, gentle and gentle elder sister, and slapped his unfulfilled brother's arm hard.

"It hurts! You are such a sister!"

Shu Yuan grimaced in pain and complained with a sad face, but his heart was filled with joy.

The two siblings were playing around and seemed to have returned to their childhood.
