It's better to marry a devil

For five days, Gao Jingyu did not appear in Ye Guqing's sight again, as if he had never been there before.If it wasn't for the letter written by Qu Chengyin in the dark compartment of the study, Ye Guqing would have really thought that Gao Jingyu appeared in her own dream.

In the past few days, Ye Guqing also thought clearly.Even if Qu Chengyin agreed to his conditions, so what, if he turned his face and refused to recognize anyone in the future, he could only act impatiently.Even though Hong Xiyue has martial arts skills, but two fists are no match for four hands. If two people with weak strength want to fight against the court, it will be tantamount to nonsense.Taking advantage of the fact that the situation can still be restored, it is better to follow Master Ye's instructions and let go early.

Therefore, Ye Guqing wrote a letter to Zhao Yunpeng who was far away in Suijiang City.When Hong Xiyue learned that Ye Guqing was going to sell the business, he didn't quite understand it. After Ye Guqing explained the details for him, Hong Xiyue also agreed to give up the business in hand and leave here with him.

Seven days later, Gao Jingyu returned to Ye Mansion with injuries all over his body.Looking at the embarrassed Gao Jingyu, Ye Guqing didn't ask anything, and the other party didn't intend to explain.He quietly found a doctor for Gao Jingyu, and when Gao Jingyu's injury was half healed, the other party took out a beautifully carved jade pendant from his bosom and handed it to Ye Guqing.

"This jade pendant was given to His Royal Highness Cheng Wang by the Queen. His Highness has never left his body since he was a child. This time His Highness gave it to you. Ye Guqing, remember what you promised."

Listening to Gao Jingyu's words, Ye Guqing looked down at the jade pendant in his hand, but reached out and returned it to him.

In the puzzled eyes of the other party, Ye Guqing said: "I believe in the sincerity of His Highness King Cheng, I am ready to pick up ten thousand taels of silver." Saying this, Ye Guqing took a sandalwood box from Hong Xiyue , Opened a box full of banknotes inside.

"His Royal Highness Cheng Wang has also helped me, and these silver coins are my thanks to him. I hope that the prince can successfully ascend to the throne and benefit our people."

Seeing Gao Jingyu lowered his eyebrows and remained silent, Ye Guqing continued: "It's getting late, Mr. Gao's injuries haven't healed yet, so we won't disturb your rest." After speaking, Ye Guqing didn't wait for Gao Jingyu to speak, and brought Seeing Hong Xiyue leave the room.

The day after Ye Guqing handed over the silver to Gao Jingyu, the little maid who was sent to serve him found that Gao Jingyu had disappeared.But the little maid found a note on the table.Ye Guqing and Hong Xiyue opened the note, and after seeing the content on it, they couldn't help but smile at each other.

Make a new face and start a new life——Gao Jingyu, who knows Qu Chengyin deeply, finally couldn't help but gave them a clear way.

When Gao Jingyu left last night, Hong Xiyue, who had been watching him, naturally knew about it, but what he and Ye Guqing didn't expect was that the other party would leave them a note.I thought Gao Jingyu, who had cold noodles, was hard-hearted, but he turned out to be a hot-hearted coquettish...

Ye Guqing burned the note in his hand, and summoned all the people from the Ye family. Under everyone's puzzled eyes, everyone scattered the Ye family for ten taels of silver, and he sent the old housekeeper to Master Ye. around.

After the old steward left, Ye Guqing and Hong Xiyue were the only ones left in the entire Ye Mansion except for the three sects who hadn't left.Although there were only two people in the huge yard, it was a bit empty, but the quiet space made them feel very comfortable.

Three days later, Zhao Yunpeng came to Xuancheng with the fleet.Ye Guqing did not let him live in the mansion, but asked Liao Qiyun to take him to the biggest inn in the city.Seeing Zhao Yunpeng, Ye Guqing didn't say anything, and directly put the contract he had already written in front of Zhao Yunpeng.

After Zhao Yunpeng read the entire contract, he had mixed feelings of joy and suspicion, and finally just signed the contract and waited for Ye Guqing to speak.

Seeing this, Ye Guqing smiled and said, "If you are satisfied, sign it."

"What do you mean?" Zhao Yunpeng asked Ye Guqing while pinching the two pieces of paper in his hand.

In fact, it was written on paper that the fleet was transferred to Zhao Yunpeng for 20 taels of silver.Now that Ye Guqing's business has become bigger, Ye Guqing suddenly sold the entire fleet to him at such a low price, which made Zhao Yunpeng suspicious.

"It's nothing, I was not in good health at first, and I have been busy with these things for more than half a year, and I can't bear the load, so I want to find someone to take care of it. But I don't feel relieved to let someone else take care of it. After thinking about it, I think of you, Brother Zhao. "

Looking at Ye Guqing's appearance, Zhao Yunpeng knew in his heart that things were definitely not as simple as he said.It's just that the piece of fat that Ye Guqing threw out was too big, so he couldn't be tempted.

It was as if Ye Guqing looked at Zhao Yunpeng's hesitant expression and was not in a hurry, holding Hong Xiyue's hand, stroking the thin calluses on his palm due to holding the sword all the year round, pursing his lips and waiting.

The time for a cup of tea was too long, Ye Guqing raised his head slowly, looked at the still conflicted Zhao Yunpeng and smiled: "Brother Zhao, think it over, if you have any inconvenience, you can tell me, I'll find someone else also."

Hearing this, Zhao Yunpeng felt a little anxious, looked at the contract in black and white on the table, gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay! Brother, I will take this business! Two hundred thousand taels of silver will be sent to the government later." superior."

Seeing that Zhao Yunpeng agreed to come down, Ye Guqing got up and waved to him.

"You only need to pay me 10 taels, and the remaining 10 taels will be distributed to Brother Liao and the brothers on the boat. Anyway, I have followed me through the wind and rain for half a year, and now I have to leave I can't lose everyone. I have something to do first, so I'll go back first, Brother Zhao, we will see you by fate in the future."

Ye Guqing hugged Zhao Yunpeng, then left the inn with Hong Xiyue and returned to Ye Mansion.

As early as a few days ago, Ye Guqing sold the house, and let Steward Liu send all the money to Master Ye.So after Zhao Yunpeng took people out of Xuancheng, Ye Guqing and Hong Xiyue left Xuancheng in a small carriage.

The destination of the two is the small town where Hong Xiyue lived when he was a child.According to Hong Xiyue, it took eight days to get there from Xuancheng. Fortunately, both of them were fine, so they wandered along the way to see the mountains and rivers on the road, and felt at ease.

After staying in the wild for two nights, when Hong Xiyue and Ye Guqing finally came to a small town called Shuanghua in the early morning, suddenly a ragged little doll threw himself in front of their carriage, causing the horse to raise its hooves and neigh .If it wasn't for Hongxi Yue's speed, the little baby would have died under the horse's hooves.

Fishing the man out from under the horse's hoof, Hong Xiyue's expression was not good. Just as he was about to ask the little boy why he was so reckless, he saw a fat man with a face like a pig chasing him from behind, pointing at The little doll kept panting heavily.

Seeing that person, the little baby kept shivering and shrank behind Ye Guqing, murmuring the word 'help'.

Seeing that Ye Guqing and Hong Xiyue didn't move, the little baby turned around and ran away.Seeing that this was not normal, Hong Xiyue quickly grabbed the little baby.The man walked up with a smile on his face.

"Smelly boy, come home with me."

Hearing what the man said, the child burst into tears immediately: "I don't want to go with you, that is not my home, my home is not here."

The man immediately became anxious when he heard this, rolled up his sleeves and cursed: "Hey, you little bastard, I slapped you after labor raised you for so many years, and you still don't recognize me."

The little baby looked at it, then shrank behind Ye Guqing, and shouted: "You are not my father, my family is not here." After speaking, the little baby looked at Hong Xiyue and Ye Guqing and begged: "Uncle, uncle, help me!" Me, he is really not my father, there are many children in his place, and he said that he wants to sell us all. Uncle, please help me."

Hearing this, Hong Xiyue immediately frowned.Turning her head to look at the man who had already rushed at the little baby, she reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"Okay, you take me there."

Ye Guqing knew that the more Hongxi thought of Tang Qingli, that's why she was like this.Ye Guqing didn't stop her from walking in the direction pointed by the little baby.

When Hong Xiyue came out of a dilapidated courtyard with the baby in his arms, several strong men rushed out of it immediately.With a cold face, Hong Xi put them down, and followed the little baby's guidance to open the locked door.After seeing more than a dozen seven or eight-year-old babies huddled together in the room with fearful eyes, not only Hong Xiyue, but also Ye Guqing felt a tinge of anger in his heart.

The little doll came down from Hong Xiyue's arms, calling them out like a child's head, and those who were more courageous stretched their heads to look at the big guys who were knocked down by Hong Xiyue, and immediately cried out happily.

"Where do you all come from?" Ye Guqing looked at an older child and asked.

"We were all kidnapped. I'm from Qingyu Town. Uncle, can you take me home?"

"Okay, what about them, where did they come from?"

Hearing this, the little baby glanced sideways at the person next to him and shook his head: "I was just sent here by them yesterday, and I don't know where they came from, but I asked them, and they all said that I Can not remember."

Hearing Xiaowa's words, Hong Xiyue and Ye Guqing immediately looked at each other.Something is wrong in my heart.

A seven or eight-year-old doll, logically speaking, should be the age to remember things, but she doesn't remember where she came from. This is very similar to the Tang Qingli that Master Ye was talking about back then.Could it be that Tang Qingli was also abducted by this group of people back then?

"Hong Xiyue, hurry up, go find that man just now! He shouldn't have gone far. When you find someone, go to the yamen and fight with me."

Hong Xiyue understood, and ran out immediately. Seeing the people rolling and howling in the yard, Hong Xiyue feared that they would hurt Ye Guqing again, and quickly touched their acupuncture points before flying out of the yard, and Ye Guqing Qing put more than a dozen children into the carriage, then turned around and walked towards the Yamen.

After Hong Xiyue traveled around half of the town, he finally found Ren Yazi, who was covered with scars, at the entrance of a medical clinic.Looking at the blood-stained man, Hong Xiyue was stunned for a moment, bent down and grabbed his shoulders, dragging him towards the Yamen.

The captured man screamed in pain, and Hong Xiyue saw that the wound on his body seemed to be bitten by a wild animal, and felt refreshed.It is said that the cycle of karma and retribution is not good, but now it seems that it is not false.

Ignoring the man's yelling, Hong Xiyue was dragged all the way to the gate of the yamen.At this time, most of the people in the small town had already woken up. When they saw a handsome man dragging a blood-stained man with a gloomy face, they were immediately very curious and followed behind to watch.

At this time, Ye Guqing had already brought the carriage to the gate of the yamen. The head catcher of the county yamen heard that his car was full of abducted children, so he immediately ran to the back yamen to report to the county magistrate.When the county magistrate heard that it was a case of human trafficking, he immediately fell in love with it, and ran out with the arrester after wearing a government official's cap.

Seeing a carload of skinny and skinny children, he immediately became angry and asked the head catcher to lead people to search the yard where the children were locked up, and took them all back to the yamen.

After some interrogation, the group confessed all the facts.

It turned out that it was a den of child trafficking, and they had been doing it for more than ten years.Over ten years, more than 100 children were abducted.When the magistrate asked them where their children were sent, those people hesitated before stammering that some were sent to kilns, and some were sold to families without children.

Hong Xiyue and Ye Guqing wondered whether this group of people had anything to do with the person who abducted Tang Qingli back then. After the magistrate took them into custody pending trial, Hong Xiyue gave Ye Guqing a wink and the two went out together. .

I found an inn in the town, and the two slept after eating and drinking.After dark, Hong Xiyue brought Ye Guqing outside the prison, and when the prison boss was unaware, he knocked the man unconscious and sneaked into the prison.

Seeing the sudden appearance, the prisoners in the prison shouted.Hong Xiyue frowned and dragged Ye Guqing to find those traffickers.I saw the leader huddled in a corner sleeping soundly.Hong Xiyue flicked his sleeve and threw a silver thread from his wrist, wrapped the man's neck and dragged him in front of him.

Looking down at the man's terrified eyes, Hong Xi asked coldly, "Say! Did you abduct a seven or eight year old boy in Qingshui Town 12 years ago?!"

The man was already frightened by the murderous Hong Xiyue. After thinking about it in his mind, he remembered that he had indeed abducted a child in Qingshui Town, so he nodded immediately.

"Yes, yes, but the child ran away after being brought to Xuancheng under the blanket, please forgive me, please forgive me." The man knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Then did you give him medicine, just like those little dolls, who don't remember anything?"

Hearing Hong Xiyue's words, the man rolled his eyes, as if he wanted to play some tricks, but he took a peek at Hong Xiyue's dark face and nodded immediately.

"Yes, I used it. I also wiped off a birthmark on the child's waist. I've said it all, sir. I won't dare again in the future. Please forgive me."

Hearing this, Hong Xiyue smiled slightly, leaned over to look at the man and said, "Okay, hand over the antidote, and I will spare you."

The man quickly said the names of several medicines, Ye Guqing looked at Hong Xiyue and his mood sank slightly.Now that he is in Tang Qingli's body, what is Hong Xiyue going to do if he wants to come for the antidote?Could it be that he wants to swallow the memory of Tang Qingli leaving Qingshui Town?If this is the case, if Tang Qingli's soul wakes up in his body, will he have nowhere to go?

When he was distracted, Hong Xiyue moved his fingers slightly, and the man kneeling on the ground was already a dead body without breathing.Immediately, Hong Xiyue looked up at the group of accomplices, piercing their hearts with a silver thread in their terrified eyes...

"Let's go."

Hong Xiyue took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped his hands, then turned his head and said to Ye Guqing.

Ye Guqing came back to her senses, looked at Hong Xiyue and nodded her head, and walked out without looking at the breathless people lying on the ground.

Back at the inn, Ye Guqing and Hong Xiyue changed all their clothes.Ye Guqing sat by the bed, looked at Hong Xiyue who bent over to pack his clothes, and asked him to sit down.

"What's wrong Zijin"

"When you get the antidote, what are you going to do? Do you want me to take it?"

Hearing Ye Guqing's words, Hong Xiyue was stunned for a moment and said: "No." After finishing speaking, Hong Xiyue suddenly realized, got up and walked to Ye Guqing's side and hugged him.

"I don't have that plan, I, I want to be selfish once, Zijin, you once told me that we are destined to be together. Have you forgotten?"

Hearing this, Ye Guqing stretched out his hand to embrace him, rubbed Hong Xiyue's forehead and nodded.

Hong Xiyue secretly sent the antidote to the yamen, and left with Ye Guqing.

Three days later, the two returned to the mountain where Hong Xiyue grew up.Looking at the familiar environment, Hong Xiyue was filled with emotion, turned to look at Ye Guqing, Hong Xiyue stretched out his hand and held the palm.

"You will live here with me in the future, you won't have any objections?"

"Is it too late for me to regret it now?" Ye Guqing smiled.

Hong Xiyue: "You...don't allow it!" Hong Xiyue stretched out his hands to wrap Ye Guqing's neck and kissed her.

Holding Hong Xiyue's waist, Ye Guqing quietly felt Hong Xiyue's enthusiasm, her heart was as bright as spring light.From then on, the young master of the Ye family in Xuancheng mysteriously disappeared, and two young farmers appeared at the foot of the mountain in Qingshui Town. It happened that one of them was also surnamed Ye.

--Finish--
