Chapter 65 Find an Excuse
Gao Chengying was shocked. Apparently the light shuttle sword brought back some memories of his early years. He was shocked but also confused:

"Your mother gave you the sword? She was actually willing to give you the light shuttle sword?"

Qin Ruizhi nodded and said, "Yes, she gave the sword to me. They took it away before entering the Dali Temple prison. My uncle remembered to help me get it back."

"Your mother is really foresighted." Gao Chengying beamed and hugged Qin Ruizhi's shoulders excitedly, "She knew that tigers and leopards were rampant in Kyoto and dangers were everywhere, so she gave you the light shuttle sword in advance. She was protecting the lives of your brothers and sisters. "

"Ah?" Qin Ruizhi was confused. How could a sword protect his life?

Qin Qingyue raised his body half up and turned to look at Gao Chengying, "Uncle, what's so strange about a sword?"

"This pair of mother-and-son swords were originally forged by your grandfather and given to your mother as a gift to capture the Zhou Dynasty. Later, during the chaos in the middle palace, your mother used the light shuttle sword to protect the then prince, who is now His Majesty. Both the mother-and-son swords were Damage."

When Gao Chengying talked about the past, he still felt a sense of pride, "His Majesty searched for famous craftsmen all over the world, reforged the Qingshuo Zimu Sword, and gave it to your mother. He once asserted: The sword is where the person is, and the sword is where the person is. "

Hearing this, Qin Qingyue also became excited, "In other words, are these not a pair of ordinary swords, or are they a gold medal for immunity from death?"

Gao Chengying nodded: "Yes. Therefore, your mother gave up this sword and gave it to Ruizhi. She was actually giving up her own life to protect you."

"..." Qin Ruizhi wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth and mumbled but couldn't say anything.

Although, in my impression, the mother who never cared about her and didn't even want to see her was willing to give up her life to protect her.

Qin Qingyue was relieved, breathed a long sigh of relief, and lay back on the ground again.

Great, there is another gold medal to avoid death.

"What happened next?" Gao Chengying continued the previous topic.

Qin Ruizhi continued: "Later, Zheng Pin stayed in the Gao family to recuperate and was able to move around. He asked me to escort him back to the capital. He passed by Chongzhou and stayed in a posthouse outside the city. He encountered an assassin again in the middle of the night. Fortunately, the Pei family guards were brave and fought to the death. Battle. Those assassins..."

"Those assassins..." Qin Ruizhi recalled carefully: "They seemed to be King Xiang's people. They shouted that they would die in return and help King Xiang achieve great things, and then they all died in the fire."

It's really ridiculous. I didn't know that the rebellious traitor was using the banner of King Xiang.King Xiang's line has been completely cut off. If he was the owner of the money-making workshop, it would no longer be important. Naturally, there would be no need to pursue him all the way.

Just because there was someone else behind the scenes, he would try to hide this person and blame everything on King Xiang. The dead cannot speak, and there is no evidence for the dead.

It is precisely because they did things too perfectly and the logic was too smooth that it became the biggest flaw.

However, Qin Ruizhi didn't care about this.

The emperor was unkind. Although he ascended the throne, he was always in fear, fearing that there would be another rebellion in the palace and he would kill all his brothers. If the emperor hadn't been pressing every step of the way, Prince Xiang would not have taken the risk.

The people who want to overthrow him are not limited to King Xiang. In the past ten years or so, there have been dozens of rebellions, including vassal kings and people with lofty ideals from all over the country.

As long as the dog emperor can be brought down, it doesn't matter whether he is a dog or a cat.

Gao Chengying asked again, and this was the most critical question: "During this journey, Zheng Pin never mentioned anything about the Xiangzhou Money Casting Workshop to you?"

Qin Ruizhi shook his head: "No, I asked him why he was hunted down. Zheng Pin said that the matter was top secret. The fewer people knew about it, the safer it was. It was safest not to know anything. I thought that it would be better to do less than to do more, so I didn't do anything more. Ask." "Zheng Pin was benevolent and did not drag you into the water." Gao Chengying said in a low voice, then stood up, "I already understand the matter. I will go to get the sword now, write a memorial overnight, and report back to Your Majesty tomorrow morning."

Then, he became concerned about Qin Qingyue: "Qingyue, I have invited a doctor who will come to treat your injury and bandage it. You have to have a good rest and don't do anything wrong again. When you brothers and sisters come out, come to Gaofu and my uncles will pay for you." Pay off your gambling debt and be a good person from now on."

"Yeah." Qin Qingyue responded softly, without any other reaction.

Gao Chengying shook his head, sighed, and left the prison.

After asking the jailer, he took the two light shuttle swords and returned to the cell. He handed the two light shuttle swords to Qin Ruizhi and told her to keep them well and cherish the swords as she cherished her own life.

Afterwards, he returned to Gaofu and went to his study. He stayed up late at night and wrote the memorial all night long.

The doctor hired by Gao Chengying could not enter the prison in Dali Temple, and there was no medical clinic there. Qin Qingyue's leg could not be treated, so he had no choice but to hold it up, and he developed a high fever in the middle of the night.

In the midst of chaos and confusion, Qin Qingyue pulled off a lock of hair and laughed at himself: He was putting on a whole show, and in order not to die in Chongzhou Post House, he deliberately injured his leg. He never expected that he might really die from his leg injury.

"Sister, I actually have private money." Qin Qingyue dragged his injured leg and moved to Qin Ruizhi's side, leaning on her shoulder. "I don't always lose when I gamble. I win nine times out of ten and rarely lose once. However, I always lose. You have to find an excuse to ask for money."

Qin Qingyue's head rested on Qin Ruizhi's shoulder, and her head was just touching his cheek. Qin Ruizhi's cheeks were so hot that they felt warm. But now in prison, there was no way to treat his injuries. She could only chat with him and transfer him. attention.

Qin Ruizhi smiled: "Why are you hiding your private money? I'm really afraid that you won't get a wife."

Qin Qingyue said gloomily: "My stepmother is stingy and speaks in an eccentric manner. I have never liked staying at home since I was a child. When I was a child, I envied you the most in Puzhou, with no one to control you.

Later, when I grew older, I felt that you were alone in Puzhou and I was alone in Kyoto, so I just wanted to make more money.But making money was really hard, so I started cheating and pretending to gamble with a group of playmates.

When he lost gambling money, he asked his father for money. If his father wouldn't give it to him, he went to work with his uncles. Over time, he saved a lot of money.I secretly purchased a house, and I used the money to build the bluestone steps in the yard.If I don’t tell, no one will know. "

Qin Ruizhi asked: "Where is that house?"

"..."

Qin Qingyue did not return and fell into a deep sleep.

My head is so hot that I can boil an egg.

If it continues to burn, it will become disabled even if it is not dead.

Qin Ruizhi pushed Qin Qingyue away from her shoulder and let him lie flat on the ground. She took out the sword, raised it high, and stabbed Qin Qingyue's injured leg. The blood poured out and turned purple-black.

Qin Qingyue woke up with a groan, his eyes full of disbelief.

Qin Ruizhi pulled out his sword and knocked the iron railings loudly, attracting the jailer, "Men and women are in separate prisons, weapons are forbidden, and the sick are given medicine. Lord jailer, how many crimes have you committed in total?"

The jailer had nothing to say, so he invited a young apprentice from the Imperial Medical Center to diagnose and treat Qin Qingyue. They cleaned the wound, applied medicine, bandaged it, and gave him antipyretic pills, which managed to bring down the fever.
