Chapter 372 After all, some things are not only related to the Qi family.
Qi Mingjing smiled bitterly, as if he had heard a joke.
"Tell my parents, and then be like Brother Mingyi, who can't even prove his innocence. What can you do by telling them?"
Once these words were spoken, even a fool would know who was the culprit in the first place.
"My third uncle hired someone to kill me before. Ma Kui took no responsibility for this. If I were to ask about what happened more than a decade ago, I'm afraid my third uncle and his people would say that our first and second houses can't tolerate it."
"It's good that you know. Not long after my elder sister told me what she saw, the wrong marriage happened. Besides, Aunt Bao has been watching my elder sister's every word and action, so it is difficult for her to tell the truth."
Ran Qingxuan couldn't imagine how Qi Mingjing, who had been enduring all this time, would face those people from the third house after knowing the truth.
Watching the person who hurt you pretending to care about you is a huge joke in itself.
It seems that Qi Huan knows a lot, but if you want to find out about Wei Xue's background from her, you may have to find a way to make this Nanny Bao shut up.
Qi Mingjing was infected with the blood evil Gu, and this Wei Xue was most likely someone from the palace. It would be strange to say that there is no trick involved.
Maybe it was just as she guessed, a prince in the capital city wanted to use the Qi Family Pharmacy for his own benefit, so he came up with the idea of killing all the heirs...
And the most likely person to get it is either Qi Jing or Qi Ren!
It can be said that as long as we know who Wei Xue belongs to, we will know who is the one who harmed Qi Mingjing.
And my third brother Gu Yanjing had not yet arrived in the capital, so how did the "corpse" happen to be handed over to Qi Minghao and taken to Cangzhou? In the end, it was he who handed the body over to the Blue Rain people, and they continued to keep in touch afterwards.
She didn't believe that such a coincidence could happen in the world.
Thinking of this, Ran Qingxuan stood up and said to the two of them, "I saw that Aunt Bao was afraid when Sister Qi came, so I wanted to go to her husband's house to treat the child myself. In front of the Zhao family, I don't think Aunt Bao would dare to stop me."
"Do you want to start a discussion?" Gu Yanchen instantly understood what she meant.
"Yes, after all, some things are not only related to the Qi family."
If she goes there today and asks Nanny Bao to pass the message out, it will just depend on who receives the message. If it is confirmed to be Wei Xue, then things will be very exciting!
The two brothers of the Qi family didn't know what Ran Qingxuan was talking about, and a puzzled expression appeared on their faces.
Ran Qingxuan did not take the initiative to explain. He bowed slightly to Qi Mingjing and called Gu Yanchen to leave.
Qi Minghe chased after them and said with a serious expression, "Let me take Madam Gu with me. You don't know the way either."
After thinking about it, Ran Qingxuan didn't refuse. After all, he just found out today that his sister married into the wrong family, so there was no reason not to go and take a look.
"Since we are going to visit, we can't go empty-handed. Let's buy something before we go!"
"I'll go to the warehouse to find some. Please wait for me for a moment."
After saying that, Qi Minghe left quickly. Gu Yanchen took Ran Qingxuan to the empty corridor and asked about the doubts in his mind.
"Which prince arranged for Madam Wei to be your suspect?"
"Isn't it obvious? You said that only palace maids would be taught such etiquette, and the Qi family has many secrets. The accidents of several young people in the Qi family are related to the third house. I don't believe it's a coincidence."
"If this Wei Xue came from the palace, then it's not a coincidence that Third Brother was brought to the Qi family team and then handed over to the Blue Rain people. Even if I can't find the master behind Wei Xue, I won't let the people behind her get what they want."
She was certain that the people behind Wei Xue wanted to take advantage of the Qi family, so she considered it as charging interest if she ruined their plans!
Gu Yanchen always felt that things were not that simple, but since Ran Qingxuan wanted to kill two birds with one stone, there was no reason for him to stop him.
"Then I'll go with you. Let Shan Qi and the others keep an eye on you, and I'll take you to see someone."
"Who is it?" Ran Qingxuan was curious.
"You'll know when you get there." Gu Yanchen smiled mysteriously.
Ran Qingxuan's appetite was whetted, but no matter how he was asked, he just wouldn't say anything.
While there was no one around, Ran Qingxuan bought some snacks for the children and some facial cosmetics from the space tablet and put them in a cloth bag.
With the help of Gu Yanchen's tall figure, two small bottles of wine in new packaging appeared in his hands.
Fortunately, her cloth bag was big enough to hold all these things.
Qi Minghe left and came back quickly, and the servants following him were carrying a lot of items that looked high-quality.
"I just sent someone to inform my uncle. He has something to do and can't leave. He asked me to thank Madam Gu."
"No need to thank me. There will be plenty of opportunities for cooperation in the future. Just give me a little more profit."
Ran Qingxuan's half-joking words stunned Qi Minghe, and his depressed mood just now felt much better at this moment.
"I have made the decision and agreed to this matter. I will definitely not let Madam Gu suffer any loss."
"Then I have to develop medicines carefully and try to make more money!"
The two men smiled at each other and walked out of the mansion with the servant.
The three of them took two carriages and it took them half an hour to get out of the city's west gate. After walking for less than an hour, they saw the gate of Hancheng.
Behind Hancheng is Hanshan Mountain, which stretches endlessly and rises high into the clouds even when viewed from a hundred miles away. Ran Qingxuan was glad that if it weren't for Hanshan Mountain blocking the way, the barbarians like Yigui would have surely broken through.
Silver Moon City was prosperous, and even the poorest people had enough food to eat. However, the situation in Cold City, which was less than a few dozen kilometers away, was completely different.
The city walls, which have not been repaired for many years, seem to fall apart at the slightest touch, and the decayed city gates are so shaky that they seem to be blown down by a strong wind...
What's even more outrageous is that the soldiers defending the city had their hands frozen purple as they held their swords in the middle of winter, and the cotton robes they wore were gray and it felt like the cotton inside was clumping.
However, it is worth noting that no matter whether it is the soldiers standing on the city wall or guarding the city gate, each of them is missing one or two fingers, and they can be seen at a glance that they are soldiers coming down from the battlefield.
Each of them stood straight with determination in their eyes, and no one moved around to keep warm even in the cold wind.
Thinking that Hancheng was Duan Yi's father's territory, and Hancheng was closest to Zhenxi Pass, where the Yigui people had been waging wars and provoking people all year round, they were all resisted by the 200,000 troops led by the Marquis of Zhenbei.
Think about it, Emperor Mingde is really a piece of shit. Not to mention that his mother did something stupid, the Marquis of Zhenbei is his uncle after all. Cutting off the food and military pay for his uncle is something that no human being can do.
Noticing that Ran Qingxuan looked unhappy, Gu Yanchen sighed in his heart.
Hancheng has always been in this state, and it was even poorer in the past. Marquis Zhenbei has done his best to bring Hancheng to this point.
Unlike the prosperous Silver Moon City, the streets of Cold City were a little desolate. People passing by hugged their arms to keep warm, with a look of vigilance in their eyes.
Hancheng and Yinyuecheng are similar in area, but the population is only half of that of Yinyuecheng. In addition, due to years of war, the population has been severely lost, and the pressure is basically placed on the other four cities.
