Chapter 282: Nightmare
Luo Qinghan and Xiao Xixi sat down in the tea room.
Mei Guangtao originally wanted to accompany him, but there were too many things going on in Jingzhao Mansion.
Before his butt was even hot, three officials came running in to look for him.
Luo Qinghan said: "Go and do your work. There is no need to stay with Gu here. If something happens to Gu, someone will summon you."
Mei Guangtao bowed his hands and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness. I will come back as soon as I go."
He ran out in a hurry.
Xiao Xixi looked at his hurried away figure and said with emotion: "This gentleman is really working hard."
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "Shengjing is the capital of the country. Many dignitaries and princely families gather here. Any trivial matter can involve a lot of intricate relationships. As the governor of this place, Mei Guangtao naturally has to do more.
Heart."
Then he asked about Zhu Quankun.
"Did you see anything unusual in Zhu Quankun just now?"
Xiao Xixi answered truthfully: "Judging from his appearance, he is greedy and selfish by nature, and has done many immoral things. He has also founded sects similar to the Dusheng Sect in other places before, using the brainwashing of believers to make them hate him.
He believed what he said and used it to defraud believers out of money. If the deception failed, he would resort to kidnapping and extortion."
This answer was within Luo Qinghan's expectations.
Judging from Zhu Quankun's calm and calm look, it was obvious that this was not the first time he had done this kind of deception. He had already made complete preparations and was not afraid of being investigated at all.
Xiao Xixi thought to herself, if this was placed in modern society, Zhu Quankun would be a pyramid scheme leader.
Luo Qinghan said: "The top priority now is to find Lin as soon as possible. The longer the delay, the more dangerous she will be."
"I'll give it to Lin once more."
Before Luo Qinghan could refuse, Xiao Xixi had already closed her eyes and began to calculate silently in her heart.
After a while, she opened her eyes, her face turned pale, and her words were weak.
"Lin is in the city."
Luo Qinghan asked her to lean against him and asked: "Where in the city?"
"Ten miles east, Willow Leaf Alley."
Luo Qinghan immediately remembered that Zhu Quankun had a house in Liuye Alley in the east of the city. He might have hidden people in that yard!
Just yesterday, Zhu Quankun's three houses had been searched several times by the government, but nothing was found. Everyone thought there was nothing in the three houses, but they did not expect that Lin was hiding in one of the houses.
Luo Qinghan immediately called Shang Kui and asked him to take two hundred Yulin guards to search the house located in Liuye Alley.
He warned: "You must check carefully and not let go of any clues."
"I will obey your orders!"
Shang Kui gathered his troops and set off in a hurry.
Xiao Xixi was very tired, so she leaned on the prince's body and fell asleep unconsciously.
She had a dream.
In the dream, she seemed to be a child again.
That was the first day she traveled to this world, and it was also the day Xue gave birth to her.
She couldn't open her eyes at first and could only hear someone crying in her ears.
Later, it took a lot of effort for her to open her eyes.
She thought the first person she saw should be her parents, but what she really saw was the face of a Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest said: "This woman has evil spirits in her life, she is a lone star of evil spirits. In her life, she has conquered her father, mother, brothers and sisters. The reason why the son will die is because she killed him. If the general and his wife want to protect their family,
If she is safe, send her away as soon as possible!"
These were the first words she heard when she came into this world.
Every word is laced with cold malice.
She was stunned for a moment.
She wanted to say that she was not a lone star in the sky, and that her brother's death had nothing to do with her.
It's a pity that she was too young and couldn't speak, so she could only cry.
The Taoist priest's words caused Xue to collapse completely.
She jumped on Xiao Xixi's body, pinched Xiao Xixi's neck, and questioned him over and over again.
"Why did you kill your brother?!"
"Why did you give birth?!"
"Why wasn't you the one who died?!"
Xiao Xixi was pinched so hard that she couldn't breathe.
She instinctively wanted to struggle, her hands flailing wildly.
"Xixi! Xixi!"
Luo Qinghan's voice penetrated the layers of fog and entered her mind, causing her to wake up from her nightmare.
Xiao Xixi suddenly opened her eyes and met Luo Qinghan's black eyes.
Luo Qinghan hugged her and asked with a frown: "Are you having a nightmare?"
She was sleeping well just now, but suddenly she began to struggle continuously, like a drowning person unable to breathe normally.
It took Xiao Xixi a while before she came back to her senses from that terrible nightmare.
She slowly exhaled and said softly: "Yeah."
Luo Qinghan looked at her little face that was paler than before and felt a little uneasy.
"What were you dreaming about?"
Xiao Xixi still had lingering fears when she thought of her experience in the dream: "I dreamed about some things from my childhood. I also saw Zhu Quankun in my dream. He was much younger at that time than he is now."
At the end of the sentence, she even laughed.
Luo Qinghan was surprised: "Do you still remember him?"
He thought she had forgotten this man a long time ago.
After all, sixteen years have passed. Xiao Xixi was just born sixteen years ago, so she probably couldn't remember Zhu Quankun's face.
Xiao Xixi: "I didn't remember much at first, but when I saw him in the court just now, I suddenly remembered him."
Luo Qinghan held her hand and found that her hand was very cold.
He poured a cup of hot tea and asked her to hold it to keep her warm.
Xiao Xixi took a sip of tea and felt a little more comfortable.
She found that the prince was looking at her with worried eyes.
"Your Highness, there is no need to worry about me. The past has long since passed. I have been doing well over the years. Even if there was a little bit of resentment in the past, I have now looked past it."
Speaking of this, Xiao Xixi couldn't help but murmur.
"Is the food not fragrant enough? Or is the bed not comfortable enough? Why should I indulge in blaming others? I am not that stupid. A great life should naturally be enjoyed. As for the bad things in the past, let them be.
Go as far as you can!"
Luo Qinghan looked at her quietly.
Some things are easy to say, but actually very difficult to actually do.
Not everyone can afford to take it up and let it go. This requires great courage and courage.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Xixi, a seemingly silly woman, is more open-minded than most people.
She will not cling to what she has lost, she will only try to live each day well now.
…
Shang Kui and Yu Linwei searched the house from beginning to end and found the unconscious Lin from the cellar. They also dug out some unexpected things in the yard.
