After resigning, I switched to fortune-telling

Chapter 76

Everyone who met the governor of Yuzhou said that she was a naive and pampered little girl. She was neither kind nor sinful, but spoiled.

But Xie Tangru didn't think so.

It's not even certain whether Xue Ciyi was born to the Governor of Yuzhou himself.

The governor of Yuzhou and Xue Ciyi were very different in appearance, and there was no similarity at all.Moreover, there were many concubines and concubines of the governor of Yuzhou, but there was only one child, Xue Ciyi—no one died halfway, only Xue Ciyi survived, and was favored like a jewel like a treasure until the governor of Yuzhou died.

The chances of this are really small.

This Miss Xue is not clear about her life experience, but she has to worry about it.

Xie Tangru went to the appointment with great interest, met Xue Ciyi, and reckoned that this girl Xue was not doing very well in Wei Guogong's mansion, and her daily life was not as good as the fine clothes and fine food in the governor's mansion of Yuzhou, her face was thin in a circle.

But the spirit is not bad, the eyes are as beautiful as the grape beads of the Western Regions, and the colorful streamers are shining, as if they are eager to try something.

"Thank you, sir." Xue Ciyi said in that sweet voice rolling in caramel, "You are too perfunctory in entertaining guests."

Xie Tang smiled like Zhi Yi, with a contemptuous tone: "Really? I don't think so."

"........."

Xue Ciyi stared at him for a long while, realizing that the prince of Wei Guogong had always thought differently from others, or he already knew something.She finally calmed down, "Okay."

She tilted her head, and the golden steps on the jet-black hair were swaying, and she got to the point: "Isn't Mr. Xie wondering why I invited you here today?"

Xie Tangru twitched the corners of his mouth, a little tiredness appeared on his eyelids at Xue Ciyi's meaningless probing words.

Lazy, slightly perfunctory.

The way you like to talk or not.

Xue Ciyi didn't expect him to be so virtuous, so she calmed down: "I don't know if the prince has ever cared about his life experience?"

"You mean that my mother is the child of the young master of the Guifang Clan?" Xie Tangru pointed his finger at the table beside him, his voice still casual.

"Then it seems that you already know your identity." Xue Ciyi showed that innocent smile again, "But I guess you don't know, in fact, I should call you brother."

The last two words scared Xie Tangru so much that he almost lost his grip on the cup in his hand. Only after Xue Ciyi continued to speak did he realize that they were not considered siblings.

According to the clan, the kind of siblings who have no relationship with each other, and who are three thousand miles apart.

Xue Ciyi is the daughter of the daughter of the elder brother of the young patriarch, that is to say, Xue Ciyi's mother and the wife of the former Wei Guogong are cousins.

In order to make this relationship sound more believable, Xue Ciyi confessed her identity.Her mother left Lingnan earlier than Jin Lianyu, arrived in Yuzhou one step earlier, and later gave birth to her.But her mother's children were difficult, and she died shortly after giving birth to her. It was only after Mrs. Wei Guogong went to Yuzhou to inform Xue Ciyi of her relationship with the Guifang clan that she knew that she had such a life experience.

Then, Mrs. Wei Guogong went to Yuzhou 15 years ago, presumably for the birth of Xue Ciyi.

But Xue Ciyi's biological mother is still a mystery.In the Guifang clan that does not communicate with outsiders, Mrs. Wei Guogong did it for love, so why did Xue Ciyi's biological mother leave Lingnan?

It's not for the governor of Yuzhou.

"I went back to Lingnan after I knew my background." Xue Ciyi said, "You probably don't know that the Guifang clan has never selected a suitable heir, so it's completely chaotic, and some ignorant clowns want to get their hands on the position of the patriarch. You are the most orthodox direct descendant of the Guifang clan in blood—I tell you this in the hope that you can return to Lingnan with me. The Guifang clan needs you, and only you can be recognized by all the clansmen."

She spoke very sincerely, as if she was only waiting for Xie Tangru to nod, but saw Xie Shizi thoughtful: "So, you are the one who sent someone to assassinate Shang Qingyao and blame me?"

"That's right." Xue Ciyi admitted frankly, she didn't seem to think that she had done anything wrong, she looked up innocently, "Shang Qingyao shouldn't be your stumbling block, I just used a little trick , he doubts you and fears you, are you really willing to be a courtier to such a person? You and I are blood relatives in this world, and I have no reason to want to harm you, brother."

Xie Tangru cut off her voice: "My mother was the only one who gave birth to me when she was alive, Miss Xue, please don't misidentify relatives, lest I think my father is raising an illegitimate daughter outside behind my back."

Xue Ciyi: "Aren't you willing to believe me?"

"It's hard for people to believe empty words, isn't it?" Xie Tangru smiled slightly, "For example, Miss Xue hasn't said her real name until now, so it's hard for me to believe it."

"Yu Sheng. My name is Yu Sheng." Xue Ciyi pursed her lips, a little annoyed by Xie Tangru's attitude, "I didn't mean to harm you, otherwise why did I have to come to the capital from Yuzhou?"

Xie Tangru directly ignored her words and only extracted the useful information he needed.

Yu Sheng, Shen Yu.

This name, no wonder...

Xie Tangru smiled slowly: "What is going on between you and Shen Yu?"

…………

Inside the palace.

A round bead solidified with snow-white Gu worms was quietly placed in the box, exuding a strange fragrance.

Shang Qingyao looked down at this Gu worm bead.The chief servant explained in a low voice: "This is something offered by the people below. It is said to be a rare item in Lingnan. If it is swallowed with one's own blood, it can make...the mind connect."

The chief servant's words were euphemistic, but it did not prevent Shang Qingyao from guessing the real purpose of this Gu worm.

"Where did it come from?"

"It was intercepted from the waste prince. Because the Gu insects are strange, the people below did not dare to act rashly, so they presented them to His Majesty to watch."

"Abandon the prince?" Shang Qingyao just remembered this brother who was like an invisible man in the battle for the throne, and smiled inexplicably. The head servant didn't quite understand the emperor's mind, so he just stood silently behind him, cautiously probing : "Your Majesty... how do you plan to dispose of this thing?"

"Actually, you want to ask, will I use this thing for Ah Ru?" The emperor twisted the sealed Gu bead, it felt as cold and hard as glass, and his pitch-black eyes were reflected in the translucent bead.

The head servant broke out in a cold sweat and dared not speak.

How can the emperor's mind be guessed by others?

How can you speak for outsiders?

The author has something to say: [The new year actually starts with a cuckoo.

I wanted to write more, but the novel is really good to read. 】
