Jinyiwei factory flower base love story
Chapter 23 Surrender
The next day, Gu Huaiqing woke up leisurely, and found herself lying in the charming red tent.His head was throbbing, the effects of the hangover starting to show.
Blinking his sleepy eyes, Gu Huaiqing slowly remembered what happened last night, his heart tightened, he looked down at his body, luckily he just took off his outer shirt, and he was still wearing his middle coat, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Huaiqing quickly got up and dressed neatly, simply rinsed his mouth with water and wiped his face, then got up and left.
There was no business in the brothel during the day, and Duan Mingchen had already greeted him, so Gu Huaiqing went out without encountering any obstacles.
Duan Mingchen is really not loyal enough to leave himself here alone, Gu Huaiqing thought angrily.He didn't remember at all what happened after he was drunk last night, let alone know that Duan Mingchen asked Lili to take care of him.
As soon as Gu Huaiqing walked out of the Jiaofang Division, he saw two of Dongchang's men squatting at the door. They had obviously been waiting for a long time. Seeing Gu Huaiqing coming out, he smiled and led his horse forward, saying, "Master Gu!"
Gu Huaiqing squinted at them suspiciously, one of them was more clever, and hurriedly said: "Master Duan told us to come here to pick you up."
Gu Huaiqing hummed, feeling a little more at ease, and suddenly remembered that the two of them discussed the matter of searching the mansion last night, so he quickly got on his horse and galloped towards Shen's mansion.
When Gu Huaiqing arrived at Shen's mansion, he found that the whole mansion was completely besieged, and the number of Jin Yiwei was several times more than the previous few days.With so many people called and such tight security, Duan Mingchen must have started searching the house.
Gu Huaiqing randomly caught a captain of Jinyiwei and asked where Duan Mingchen was. After getting the answer, he went straight to the living room of Shen's residence.
Stepping into Shen's mansion, he found that the mansion was in turmoil and chaos everywhere. The clothes, shoes and furniture found were scattered everywhere.
"Brother Duan, what did you find?" Gu Huaiqing arrived before the sound of his arrival, pushed the door open and rushed in.
There were actually two people standing in the living room, besides Duan Mingchen, there was another man wearing a black gauze hat and a flying fish suit.The man was tall and burly, with a full beard and a majestic aura without anger. He was the Commander of Jin Yiwei, Liu Chong.
Gu Huaiqing was quite surprised, and said, "What kind of wind brought Commander Liu here?"
Gu Huaiqing was surprised by Liu Chong's visit, Liu Chong couldn't hide his inner surprise, and cast a suspicious look at Duan Mingchen.Brother Duan?When did my capable subordinate become so close to Dongchang Hongren, to the point of calling them brothers?
Duan Mingchen winked at Liu Chong, meaning to explain to him later, and then remembered the scene of teasing Gu Huaiqing last night while he was drunk, but felt guilty, and even dared not look directly at Gu Huaiqing.
Gu Huaiqing looked calm, he didn't remember what happened after he was drunk at all, he just felt that since they were brothers who drank and went shopping together, their emotions were naturally different, and the call "Brother Duan" was very natural.
Gu Huaiqing met with Liu Chong, Liu Chong coughed and explained: "Mingchen and I applied for a search warrant and mobilized people to search Shen's residence. I have nothing to do, so I followed to have a look."
Gu Huaiqing nodded knowingly. Although Jin Yiwei's status is detached, the capital's residence is different from ordinary people's residence. Duan Mingchen still needs to get the approval of his superiors if he wants to search the residence.
"There are too many things found. I asked someone to tidy them up a little bit. These may be useful." Duan Mingchen pointed to the piles of objects piled up at his feet.
Gu Huaiqing bent down to inspect the items, and these items were marked according to different people.The other people's things were nothing special, so Gu Huaiqing casually flipped through them and threw them aside.
Among the objects searched by Xie Huilan, apart from a few gorgeous costumes and jewelry, there were also some poems, which were written on pink Xuetao paper in small letters with hairpin flowers.
Gu Huaiqing casually flipped through the poems and found that they were all boudoir grievance poems expressing worries.
One of them reads: "I lost my spring lover in front of the flowers, looking for fragrance alone. My eyes are full of sadness. Even if there are music and music, my heart is heartbroken. I play in the forest with butterflies and swallows, both of them. I can bear to think about it, and the green trees and moss are half-sunset."
The other song reads: "Mo Xu's cup is deep amber and thick, and the intoxication melts first. Shu Zhong has already responded to the evening wind. Ruinaoxiang ecstasy and dreams are broken, and the cold golden bun is loose. Wake up to the candle flower red. "
Gu Huaiqing's gaze shifted to Shen Yichan's belongings. There were many excellent paintings inside, most of them were landscapes of flowers and birds, but there was an incomplete painting that was very eye-catching.
The center of the painting was scorched black by fire, and only the upper and lower ends near the scroll still had residual ink stains. After careful identification, the lower end is the four hooves of a galloping horse, and the upper end is a half-full bowstring. Based on this, it can be deduced , it may be a picture of someone riding a horse with a bow and shooting an arrow.
Gu Huaiqing's thoughts moved slightly, could it be that Miss Shen's lover is a man who is good at riding and shooting?That doesn't match the image of her fiancé. Although Wei Zhuangyuan has outstanding literary talents, he has no achievements in martial arts.
It is a pity that the faces and figures of the people in the paintings were all burnt and could not be identified.In other words, after finishing the painting last night, Miss Shen burned the painting again, obviously not wanting others to see it.
Gu Huaiqing said: "I think it is necessary to ask Miss Shen carefully, who is the person in the painting? My intuition tells me that there is something mysterious in this painting."
Duan Mingchen was accustomed to his intuition, so he said: "Then please go to the East Wing. Miss Shen was shocked when I searched the house in the morning, and she is resting in the room now."
Gu Huaiqing hummed, said farewell to Liu Chong, and strode towards the door. Just as he opened the door, he almost bumped into the oncoming woman.
Gu Huaiqing subconsciously supported the person who came, and looked down, it turned out to be Mrs. Shen Xie Huilan.
Xie Huilan wore a white crepe filial piety bun on her head, a white silk double-breasted jacket on her upper body, and a gold skirt covered with agarwood on her lower body.
Gu Huaiqing wondered, "Ma'am, why are you here?"
Xie Huilan bypassed Gu Huaiqing, walked lightly in front of Liu Chong, and suddenly knelt down.
"Ma'am, what are you doing?" Liu Chong asked puzzled.
Xie Huilan raised her head, smiled sadly and said, "Master Commander, this concubine is here to surrender herself."
Facing their surprised gazes, Xie Huilan took a deep breath, and said word by word: "I am the one who killed Shen Junru!"
Xie Huilan's voice was not loud, but it was as loud as Hong Zhong's. It shocked the three people present and didn't know how to react for a while.
There was a dead silence in the living room.
Commander Liu Chong of Jin Yiwei was experienced after all, suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Mrs. Shen, why did you murder your husband? You know, according to the law of this dynasty, a wife who kills her husband is punished by beheading." , Abandon the corpse at Caishikou!"
Xie Huilan's tender body trembled slightly, as if frightened by the bloody death penalty, her pretty face was pale and bloodless, but she did not flinch, straightened her back, gritted her teeth and said in a hateful voice: "I killed him because Shen Junru deserves to die, he ruined it." The happiness of my life, I hate him to the bone!"
Liu Chong frowned and asked, "What's the deep hatred between you and Shen Shoufu? You must kill him and then hurry up?"
Xie Huilan sneered and said, "The three adults, have you ever thought about why, as the daughter of the Duke's family, I would marry a man who is old enough to be my father?"
Liu Chong was silent for a moment, then asked back: "Isn't it to save your lord An Guogong?"
However, Gu Huaiqing couldn't help frowning and pondering. After An Guogong Xie Yun was imprisoned, the first person he asked for help was his adoptive father, Wan Zhen, the governor of the East Factory. Xie Yun promised to betroth his youngest daughter Xie Yalan to Wan Zhen, and Wan Zhen Zhen promised to intercede for him in front of the emperor and protect him from prison.
Others may not know what Wan Zhen is capable of, but Gu Huaiqing knows it best. Wan Zhen is a cautious person, and since he has promised Xie Yun, he will definitely be able to do it.It may not be possible to restore official Xie Yun to his original post, but it must be no problem to save his life and get out of prison safely.
That being the case, why did the Xie family sacrifice another daughter to marry Shen Junru?Isn't this superfluous?Moreover, Xie Huilan's marriage was arranged hastily, before Xie Yalan left the court, she hurriedly married into Shen's family, could there be another secret behind it?
Xie Huilan said with red eyes, "I did not marry Shen Junru out of my own will. Shen Junru, a hypocrite, destroyed my innocence first, and threatened me later. I had no choice but to submit."
"You should know that my father and Shen Junru are close friends. Ms. Shen and I are close friends in the boudoir. We have played handkerchiefs together since we were young. After my father was imprisoned in an accident, I was so anxious and panicked that the first thing I thought of was to come The Shen residence asks for help."
"However, I came at an unfortunate time. At that time, Ms. Shen was suffering from a cold and had just fallen asleep after taking the medicine. I was very anxious, but I didn't want to disturb her. At this time, Shen Junru went back to the house. After seeing me, he asked me Father's matter. In my heart, I have always respected him as an elder. When I was in a hurry, I asked him for help. Shen Junru, a hypocrite, put on a kind and amiable attitude, and used his help to my father as a bait. I lured him into the room, and he treated me..."
Xie Huilan choked up, teardrops rolled down, her face was full of shame, indignation and humiliation, "This beastly thing has ruined my innocence. I was so ashamed and angry that I wanted to hit the wall to kill myself, but he stopped me. He threatened me Said, if you don't want my father to have something to do, don't speak up, otherwise he will let my father die in prison and let my Xie family be destroyed! He said that he had taken a fancy to me a long time ago and asked me to be his wife. I will go to my house to propose marriage."
"At that time, my father had confirmed that he would marry my sister-in-law to Master Wandu as a concubine. Logically speaking, I didn't need to marry Shen Junru again to protect my father. But on the one hand, he ruined my innocence and made it impossible for me to marry others. I was also afraid that he would cause trouble in it and prevent my father from being released from prison safely. As a last resort, I agreed to this marriage. But in my heart, I never forgave this beast in clothes, and I never regarded him as my husband. I endured the humiliation, I coaxed Shen Junru into favor and trust, and God finally let me find the right opportunity to avenge myself and avenge myself!"
Xie Huilan's statement caused great waves in the hearts of the three people present. Women regard integrity as their life, especially a lady from a famous family like Xie Huilan would never make fun of her own reputation.If Shen Junru really did such a thing, then his morals are extremely corrupt, and he is in vain as an emperor's teacher!
Blinking his sleepy eyes, Gu Huaiqing slowly remembered what happened last night, his heart tightened, he looked down at his body, luckily he just took off his outer shirt, and he was still wearing his middle coat, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Huaiqing quickly got up and dressed neatly, simply rinsed his mouth with water and wiped his face, then got up and left.
