Chapter 455: Worrying is unnecessary, he doesn't dare.
Before this, Duan Yi already knew that the disappearance of those children was related to Qi Jing, so although it was reasonable to ask his father to find the children, it would arouse some suspicion.
Although the Duan family's current situation seems prosperous, they are actually still controlled by others.
Gu Yanchen sneered and couldn't help but said, "He can't, and he doesn't dare. It won't do him any good to delve into it!"
"you mean?"
Duan Yi hadn’t come to his senses for a while, and Gu Yanchen sneered: “Even if he thought of this, he wouldn’t dare to bring it up rashly, because finding the child means that what he did has been known to others.
He wanted to blow up the dam so that Qi Ren would never have a chance to turn things around. Once someone in the court made this matter public, it would have a significant impact on him even if he strongly denied it.
If he wanted to return to the throne of crown prince and further consolidate his position after returning, he could only swallow this loss in silence. ”
Duan Yi was originally listening attentively, but he heard the words "blowing up a dam". He didn't expect that Gu Yanchen would downplay the evil plan of Qi Jing so lightly.
"More importantly, his incident happened in the Salt Gang's territory. Once Qi Ren knew about this good opportunity to bring him down, how could he not seize it?"
The Salt Gang and the Salt Transport Bureau have always been irreconcilable, and Qi Jing's appearance in the Salt Gang would naturally cause criticism.
"So, all your worries are in vain. Qi Jing is seriously injured now, and he will definitely try his best to heal himself first. After all, the emperor cannot be a disabled person."
After hearing this, Duan Yi immediately felt relieved and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's refreshing to think about it, but if he becomes emperor, it will really be a nightmare for Northern Qi."
"A prince actually wants to consolidate his throne by hurting the people. Once the world knows about this, I think he will not be popular even if he inherits the throne."
At this point, Duan Yi hesitated and said, "I don't know about Ming Jing..."
"Starting tonight..."
Duan Yi's eyes lit up and he stood up excitedly.
"That's great, it's really great. My father and I have been waiting for this moment for a long time since we learned his identity."
Regardless of whether Qi Mingjing has the opportunity to clear his name, in Duan Yi's view, he is still his aunt's grandson and has some Duan family blood flowing in his body.
In addition, the emperor was blind at the time, so if there was a day when Qi Mingjing would be reinstated, he naturally could not be a disabled person.
"Let's do this for now. After tomorrow, Qi Mingjing will be like a normal person. Then I will ask Qingxuan if I can let you meet him."
Duan Yi nodded excitedly, and Gu Yanchen then remembered that Fang Zhixing had been waiting outside for a while.
"Zhixing, come in."
"Sixth Master!" He naturally would not get close to listen to the two masters talking. He only came in when he heard Gu Yanchen calling him.
"I was a little busy before. What is it you want to talk about?"
Fang Zhixing took out a letter from his bosom and said, "This letter was sent to the base by Liuzi. You will be very happy to read the contents."
Gu Yanchen's eyes lit up and he immediately took it and unfolded it.
After a moment, he stood up suddenly and walked out with big strides.
"Hey, wait for me, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Duan Yi followed him out, and the two of them came to the front hall together.
The long table was already filled with meat, vegetables, and some snacks. It was the first time the children had seen such a setting, so they sat around it obediently.
Ran Qingxuan looked up and saw them, and said, "It's just been set up, I was just about to call you!"
"Come here for a moment."
Ran Qingxuan was just about to invite Duan Yi to sit down, but unexpectedly he was pulled away by Gu Yanchen, leaving the other people looking at him in confusion.
"What's going on?"
Gu Yanchen didn't say anything and handed the letter directly to her.
"Liuzi and the others sent a letter!"
"six..."
After observing Gu Yanchen's expression, Ran Qingxuan immediately realized that things would not be too bad.
"But is there good news?"
"You'll know once you see it."
As Ran Qingxuan unfolded the envelope, the more he looked at it, the more relaxed his brows became.
"Great! Fourth brother is still alive and is in the Balanch mansion!"
This is not only good news for the two of them, but also for the fourth sister-in-law and the family.
"I can't wait to go to Zixi. As long as we settle down, we can go and rescue Fourth Brother. This is great!"
Ran Qingxuan had already regarded the Gu family as her own relatives, so no matter who the good news was, it was worth being happy about for her.
Gu Yanchen was filled with emotion. All these changes happened after Ran Qingxuan arrived.
If he had died early because of Emperor Mingde's scheme, what happened later would not have happened.
The eldest brother will be locked up in a dark dungeon for the rest of his life, and the third brother will not be rescued because he is exposed.
And the fourth brother was trapped in Blue Rain as a half-human, half-ghost, and became a medicine man, controlled by Balanch his entire life.
It can be said that everything is just right now.
After the two of them went back, everyone found that they seemed very happy. Qu Feng wanted to ask what was going on, but because there were other people present, he had to eat first and wait until he entered the space to perform surgery on Qi Mingjing before asking.
Duan Ling and Chen Xu met again. They had been talking for a while, but Duan Ling had not yet told her about Wu Luan's previous trouble.
The two of them sat together as if they had endless things to talk about, and they would not stop until Ran Qingxuan came back.
"Sister Ran, come quickly, I can't wait to eat meat!"
Because the children don’t eat spicy food, and Grandma Fang was afraid that the children would disturb others, she took them to a separate table.
Chang Fang had told her how to eat, so after everyone gathered, she started to help the children boil the meat and vegetables.
For those who were eating hotpot for the first time, this way of eating was totally unprecedented, but it was surprisingly lively.
After Duan Yi took the first bite, he never put down his chopsticks. Even Gu Yanchen couldn't help wanting to eat a few more bites.
"Tomorrow I will have people make enough copper pots according to the drawings you gave me, and launch hot pot in the restaurant as soon as possible. It must be a wonderful thing for the whole family to sit together and eat in winter!"
Duan Ling's words made Gu Yanchen and Duan Yi a little confused, so Ran Qingxuan explained to them.
"Sister Duan is working with me to promote hot pot in her restaurant for the time being, and then we'll officially open a hot pot restaurant in Silver Moon City after the New Year."
Duan Ling wanted to expand the family business. After all, due to the order of Emperor Mingde, the men of the Duan family were not allowed to leave their fiefdom.
Duan Ling takes her mother's surname, so most of the Duan family's business will be handed over to her in the future.
For her, as long as the business was profitable, she would give it a try. In addition, the idea of hot pot was very profitable for her, so she simply agreed with Ran Qingxuan.
Except for Duan Yi and Gu Yanchen, everyone else already knew about it, and they saw the two of them sign the agreement and put their fingerprints on it with their own eyes.
Gu Yanchen would not stop Ran Qingxuan from doing anything. Hearing this, he raised his glass to celebrate her cooperation with Duan Ling.
