A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1426

[Chapter 1415 Bloodline]
When Qi Ning led Gu Qinghan back to the capital, it was already dusk.
According to the original plan of taking care of Qinghan, she was to go to the East China Sea under the arrangement of Mrs. Tian, and then settle down temporarily in the East China Sea. She had discussed everything with Mrs. Tian in advance. Not to enter the capital, but Qi Ning naturally did not want to let Gu Qinghan stay outside the city alone.
When Gu Qinghan entered Beijing, he was only worried about being discovered. Fortunately, Qi Ning had a few masks presented by Zhongya, a thousand-faced fox. These masks are of special workmanship and are by no means comparable to ordinary masks on the rivers and lakes. , can be changed arbitrarily.
Therefore, when Qi Ning returned to Beijing, he was accompanied by an inconspicuous middle-aged man, so naturally it would not make people suspicious.
It was already dusk, and when Qi Ning planned to arrive in the capital on the way, he arranged Gu Qinghan at an inn, and then went to inform Mrs. Tian in person, but Gu Qinghan had a special liking for the fish noodles in Liufangzhai in the capital. This fish noodles are in the capital. It is a famous snack. Gu Qinghan also let people buy it from the outside and eat it in Fuzhong. The taste is really good, but when I bought it back from Liufangzhai, the taste has been somewhat reduced. Gu Qinghan can’t easily leave the house on weekdays, so she always hopes You can go to Liufangzhai to taste the freshly cooked fish noodles.
Gu Qinghan’s parting is imminent, not to mention just eating a bowl of noodles, even if it is a more difficult task, Qi Ning will of course try his best to do it for her.
When Qi Ning returned to Beijing, he had already changed into a normal shirt, because he was worried that he would be too conspicuous and would be seen by others.
In fact, Liufangzhai is not too far from Tianzhai. After three or four streets, after eating Liufangzhai’s fish noodles and settling down with Gu Qinghan, you can go directly to Tianzhai.
At dusk, there were already a lot of customers in Liufangzhai. There were all kinds of snacks on the two floors of Liufangzhai. Qi Ning wanted a separate private room, but such an old-fashioned snack bar really doesn’t want to buy it alone. In the room, there are seven or eight tables on the upper and lower floors, which are open to sit. If there are many people, many people usually don’t mind joining tables.
Several well-placed tables were already seated, so Qi Ning could only sit down with Gu Qinghan at a table in the corner, and two bowls of hot fish noodles were served. Qi Ning saw Gu Qinghan’s beautiful eyes showing joy The light, but also joy in his heart, secretly thinking that the Houmen is as deep as the sea, although Gu Qinghan had a high status in the Qi family mansion, but working day and night may not be happy, at least it was rare in the mansion to see such joy in Gu Qinghan’s eyes. The light, and a bowl of ordinary fish noodles, can make this beautiful girl happy.
The fish noodles tasted good, and several side dishes ordered by Qi Ning also had their own specialties.
This kind of market life is particularly real, making people truly feel the charm of life.
When eating noodles,
Gu Qinghan saw that Qi Ning was staring at him all the time, and couldn’t help but glared, the foot under the table lightly stepped on Qi Ning’s foot, and then he pouted to the side, Qi Ning immediately understood what Gu Qinghan meant.
Gu Qinghan is now dressed as an ordinary middle-aged man. When eating noodles, if a man stares at another man all the time, if he is seen by others, he will inevitably feel strange.
Qi Ning retracted his gaze and glanced to the side. There were three or four people sitting at the table next to him. , naturally ignored what they were
saying, but at this time, he heard a man with a mustache say: “There is a saying that is good, there is no wind and no waves. Since this is rumored everywhere in the capital, it will not be groundless.”
“Zhou Laosan, where did you say this news came from?” A skinny monkey-like man said: “The King Yiheng is almost twenty now, why has there been no wind in the past twenty years? This time, there are rumors everywhere.”
Qi Ning couldn’t think that these people were talking about him, he frowned, Gu Qinghan saw the change in Qi Ning’s face, so he couldn’t help but pay attention.
“Monkey Wang, how many years have you been in Beijing?” Zhou Laosan looked triumphant: “Your mother only entered Beijing seven or eight years ago, and my grandfather’s generation lived in Beijing to make a living, in the streets and alleys of Beijing. Those who are not familiar with me are also here… 1” After saying that, he nodded his head.
Another person smiled and said, “It’s not false. Brother Wednesday is a native of Beijing. You only need to ask the third brother about the strange things that happened in Beijing. If you ask the right question, there is nothing you don’t know.” He added: “Third brother, do you think that Prince Yiheng is really not the seed of the Qi family?”
As soon as these words came out, Qi Ning changed even more, but he turned his head to cover it up. Gu Qinghan was also fascinated and looked at Qi Ning.
“We don’t have real evidence in our hands, so we can’t talk nonsense.” Zhou Laosan whispered: “But when this King Yiheng was born, something strange happened to the Qi family. You may not know that, as far as I know, King Yiheng was born. After her mother gave birth to King Yiheng, it was rumored that her mother died due to dystocia, and although the child was saved, the adult left.”
The person who asked the question nodded and said, “I also heard my father talk about this back then .
Yes, but no one knows what happened.”
“If it is said that it was a dystocia death, it is not a big deal.” Zhou Laosan said: “There are more women in the world who die every year because of dystocia. , but weird is what happened before and after that lady gave birth.”
“What happened?” Wang Monkey asked anxiously.
Zhou Laosan swept around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he said in a low voice: “Some old people in Beijing know that before that lady gave birth, some monks came from Daguang Temple, and those monks were in the Jinyi Hou Mansion. After staying for several days, after they left, the news of the lady’s death in childbirth soon came out, but there was no mourning in the Qi family.”
“That’s right.” The person who asked the question said, “I’ve heard about this too. The servants in his house reported that Mrs. Qi was pregnant. Later, everyone often inquired about it. When the childbirth was imminent, everyone came down from their house. Everyone knows the approximate date. But the strange thing is that when the baby is about to give birth, when everyone inquires again, the servants in the house never mention it. Later, some monks came into the house and knew that they belonged to the Daguang Temple. Senior monk, those days happened to be the day of giving birth, after a few days, He came to the door and left, and after a few days, I heard that Mrs. Qi passed away.”
Zhou Laosan nodded and said, “Jinyi Qi’s family is a hero of Great Chu. , made great contributions to my great Chu, Mrs. Qi passed away, everyone gave her a ride when they were waiting for the funeral, but they never saw the Qi family’s funeral, everyone was strange, but after all, it was the Qi family We don’t know the inside information, so it is inconvenient to say more about the matter. Later, I asked the servants in the house what was going on. When the servants
heard about Mrs. Qi, they turned a deaf ear and asked urgently. They
beat people.”
Wang Monkey said: “This is weird.” Touching his chin, he said, “This monk came to the door just to do a practice meeting and save the undead. But according to what you said, Mrs. Qi has not given birth yet, monk. They went to the door, so what did they do when they came to Hou’s mansion? It’s impossible for them to know that Mrs. Qi would die, so they tried to escape in advance?”
“The Houmen is as deep as the sea, who can know what happened? Zhou Laosan said: “It’s been almost twenty years, and suddenly someone said that the prince is not from the Qi family. This is strange. If someone really knows that the prince is not from the Qi family, why wait like this? It took a
long time to spread it out?”
Wang Monkey said: “I think someone is deliberately trying to embarrass the prince. Think about it, since the founding of our Great Chu Kingdom, there is no precedent for a king with a different surname. The Qi family heard that he was less than 20 years old. , to be named a king by a different surname, this is unprecedented, and it is inevitable that there will be people in the court who are jealous, so they spread rumors and cause trouble.”
“If it wasn’t for the prince who kept the emperor, the state of Chu’s country would be unstable.” Zhou Laosan lowered his voice even more: “With his credit, it would be right to confer the king. But if it wasn’t for Mrs. Qi before and after giving birth Those strange things that happened, no one believed in these rumors. But the problem is that those things were too strange back then, although everyone dared not say it, but at that time, things were circulating everywhere in the streets of Beijing. More than ten years later, It would be fine if no one mentioned it, but once it is mentioned, everyone still remembers the events of the year. Now that these rumors have spread, when everyone thinks of the events of the past, even if they don’t fully believe it, there will always be some weirdness among them. ”
Wang Monkey laughed: “It’s just to eat and have nothing to do, and it’s just for fun. I don’t believe it’s true. What happened in those days, we idiots don’t know, but don’t the Qi family know it happened? What? The Qi family knows all about the inside story. If the prince is really not the seed of the Qi family, how could the Qi family raise him? Don’t forget, he also inherited the brocade clothes. No matter how
confused the Jinyi Qi family is, it is impossible for an outsider to inherit their title.”
“What Wang Monkey said makes sense.” Another said: “This is the important point, is the prince from the Qi family’s bloodline? , outsiders don’t know, Qi family knows, Qi family will never let outsiders get the title.”
Several people said with gusto, and suddenly heard a cold snort, this cold snort suddenly startled the three, and looked left and right. Look, no one paid attention to this side, but Zhou Laosan still laughed twice and said, “Come on, eat, eat, monkey, today’s treat for you…!” But he didn’t dare to stop Go on and on.
Both Qi Ning and Gu Qinghan understood, and naturally they were not in the mood to continue eating noodles. After checking out, Qi Ning remained silent. On the street, Gu Qinghan was inconvenient to say more. Seeing that the sky had darkened, Qi Ning was nearby. I found an inn and asked for an upper room. After entering the house, Gu Qinghan fastened the door and saw that Qi Ning had walked to the bedside, pushed the window to breathe the outside air, walked over lightly, glanced at Qi Ning, and said softly. Said: “It’s just some boring people talking nonsense, don’t take it to heart.”
Qi Ning was silent for a moment, and finally looked at Gu Qinghan, but with those beautiful eyes, he said word by word, “I really am not of Qi family blood! “
