v2.Chapter 268 (1/2)
”What?”
”I got sick a few days ago. Why did I die so soon?”
Ning Chengzhi was shocked. Thinking of the order of the old prime minister in the court, he could not help feeling sad.
The little eunuch said, ”my Lord, I don't know what happened. Early this morning, the slave went out of the palace to invite the old Prime Minister. Then he saw Princess Danyang and miss Yin kneeling outside the upper room and crying bitterly. Only then did he know that the old prime minister was gone last night. ”
Ning Chengzhi waved his hand, ”well, the old prime minister is nearly 60 years old. It's not too early to go. But now Yin Shuo was suspended for examination, and the prime minister didn't even have a principal. Pass on my will and authorize Yin Shuo to take care of the funeral ceremony of the old prime minister in the mansion. ”
”Yes, I'm going to preach.”
Ning Chengzhi said, ”by the way, did Mr. Ji invite them?”
As soon as the voice came down, there was a singing voice outside the hall, ”Mr. Ji, Mr. Chen and Mr. Pei are here --”
Ning Chengzhi waved back the man, sat on the chair behind the imperial case and adjusted his posture to make him look more dignified and serious.
Ji Xuanxian and Chen Chuxiu support Mr. Ji and Mr. Chen Ge. These two old people seldom go out now. They often go out with two dutiful sons on their side.
When they heard that they were going in, they walked slowly in. Mr. Ji came to Mr. Chen with a mysterious smile on his face.
”Mr. Chen Ge, did Princess Yufu send someone to see you a few days ago?”
Chen Ge Lao raised his head, also with a mysterious smile, everyone knew.
Mr. Ji sighed, ”I can trust the character of marquis Gu. At the moment, saving their family from fire and water is the key. No one else can manage it.”
What does he mean, even if the guhou family will be loyal to Beili in the future?
Gu huaijiang's army has made great contributions to Dongling for half of his life, but he was treated like this in his late years. Dongling owes him, not him.
Old Chen Ge nodded, ”I'm too old to care so much...”
Pei Zheng didn't understand what they said. He thought that they didn't intend to help all the people in Marquis Gu's house. ”Don't be polite, two elders. If you don't care, I'll persuade your majesty to let Marquis Gu's family go!”
Elder Ji and elder Chen Ge look at each other and laugh at Pei Zheng. Pei Zheng's face is puzzled. ”What are you laughing at?”
Ji Xuanxian also laughed, ”see Pei adult honest, father and Chen Ge old happy just smile.”
……
The news of Yan Yan's death suddenly surprised Yu Fu.
How did you die of illness?
I had never heard that he was seriously ill before. If there was really Yin Jihe, he would come to her for help. Is that right
Yu Fuzheng thought and saw Lian Bi come in and tell him, ”Miss, General Liu has come to say goodbye to you.”
Her heart clattered a, heart way own guess is about true, a nod signal Lian Bi to bring people in.
Liu Tingting quickly came in and gave a fist to Yu Fu. Yu Fu pointed to the chair in front of him. ”General Liu just recognized Ji Yi. How can he go so fast? Sit down and talk
Liu Tingting was not too polite. She sat down and said, ”I think the princess has heard the news of Yin Yan's death?”
Yu Fu nodded slightly, ”is this really related to General Liu? But Ji she... ”
Liu Tingting sighed a long time, heard the name of Yin Jiyi, flashed a trace of intolerance, eyes slightly red.
”Yufu, I heard that General Liu is with you...”
Gu Jiuge comes in from the outside in a hurry. When Guo sees Yufu and Liu Tingting sitting and talking, he is surprised that he has many questions to ask.
Liu Tingting opened a mouth first, ”I know what you want to ask, I come to say goodbye today, just to tell you something.”
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and her thoughts returned to last night when she was in the prime minister's office -
”Yinyin, Yinyin, forgive me.”
After more than ten years, Yin Yan was ill again, obviously unable to distinguish Liu Yinyin from Liu Tingting.
He regards Liu Tingting as Liu Yinyin and cries out desperately to forgive me. Liu Tingting suddenly feels strange.
When she sneaked into Yan Yan's room, she just wanted to know how Liu Yinyin pretended to be dead and fled the battlefield, how she met Yan Yan and decided to make a life promise, and how she died.
I didn't expect that Yin Yan blurted out such words, which made Liu Tingting very confused.
She poured a glass of water from the short table beside the bed, and splashed it on Yan Yan's face without a drop left. ”You see clearly, I'm Liu Tingting, not Liu Yinyin. Yinyin died more than ten years ago. How could she be as old as me? ”
A cup of cold water poured from the face into the heart and lung, Yan Yan trembled all over, and his eyes became clear.
He looked closely at the woman in front of him. She was nearly 40 years old and wore the hair of a woman in Xikun. Her eyes were stern and indifferent.
She is not Liu Yinyin.
Liu Yinyin is a charming woman who is brave and valiant. She is a woman who comes from a general's family but is not rude at all. When she is gentle, she makes people intoxicated. When she is coquettish, she makes people can't help but agree to all her requirements.”Liu Tingting? You are Yinyin's twin sister... ”
Yan Yan straightened up and leaned slowly on the soft pillow behind him. Liu Tingting nodded: ”it's me. Tell me, what happened to Yinyin? Why didn't you save her? ”
Yan Yan trembled and muttered: ”you...”
”Why do I know? You just said it half asleep and half awake. My elder brother and I have been missing Yin Yin all the time for more than ten years. We finally found the clue of Ji He. Don't you want to tell the truth? ”
Yin Yan was as like as two peas in silence. Looking at Liu Tingting and Liu Yin's almost identical face, he finally opened his mouth.
”Seventeen years ago, Gu huaijiang had several wars with Xikun on the border, each of which won a great victory. The voice of the court was higher and higher, and the former Emperor also praised him very much. I'm the only one who thinks something's wrong. I think his victory is too quick and easy
”I secretly went to the border to find Gu huaijiang's flaw. I didn't want to hear that the commander of Xikun was captured and killed himself before I got to zhuguan. I was about to turn around and return to the imperial capital when I met Yinyin
Liu Tingting's eyebrows trembled, restrained the ups and downs in her heart, and came to listen to Yin Yan.
Yan Yan said slowly: ”that was the first time I saw Yinyin. She was in rags. I don't know where she picked up her clothes. She ran to my horse and begged me to take her away. When I saw her young, I thought she was a girl in my family who could not escape. I was so soft hearted that I took her back to the imperial capital. ”
Liu Tingting said: ”you didn't know her identity at that time. Later, you knew her identity. You were worried that she would implicate you, so you just killed her, didn't you?”
”No, no, I didn't mean to kill her!”
