"No matter who told me this, I'm going to find the answer now. Do you agree or not?"
Her eyes were burning as she locked onto the high priest.
"You look so fierce now, which is quite funny." The high priest sneered.
Qu Li folded his arms and raised an eyebrow, "So, you agree?"
"Let Tianqing go with you."
"good!"
The carriage drove all the way to the suburbs. When Qu Li got off, his eyes lingered on the plaque for a moment.
Even though she didn't recognize Xiling's writing, it didn't stop her from judging the temperament of the person who wrote the words by the handwriting and the strokes of the pen.
"It is said that these words were written by Prime Minister Changsun himself! When the prime minister resigned from his post that day, he took the plaque with him." Tianqing explained to her.
"It can be seen that the old prime minister is a man with a deep heart!"
The moment the butler saw Qu Li, he was in a trance.
She looks so much like the second young lady!
Qu Li also saw through the butler's thoughts at a glance, and nodded at him with a curved lip.
Tianqing stepped forward and bowed, "Excuse me, is Prime Minister Changsun here?"
The butler withdrew his gaze, his mind filled with doubts.
It seemed that there were no more young ladies or boys left in their family, but this girl looked very similar to the second young lady.
"The master is here! Please follow me!"
The housekeeper led them to the front hall, and the maid soon came in with tea.
Her eyes fell on Qu Li's face, and the maid thought she had seen the second young lady.
After serving tea and leaving, he hurried to Changsun Lingyue's yard.
When Changsun Wuji heard the housekeeper say that the person who came looked very similar to his second granddaughter, he frowned tightly.
"Master, there doesn't seem to be any children left behind in your house! Could it be that there are really people in this world who look so similar?" The housekeeper couldn't help but sigh.
"Go and have a look."
Hearing footsteps, Qu Li looked up.
The moment their eyes met, Changsun Wuji was completely dazed.
picture!
They really look alike!
Qu Li put down the cup in his hand, stood up, and bowed with a smile: "Greetings to Prime Minister Changsun."
Changsun Wuji suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart and sat down in the main seat.
"What's your name, girl?"
"Qu Li."
"You're not from Xiling?"
"I'm a Dagan."
"Excuse me, young lady, what is the matter with you coming here today?"
Xiling has been closed to the outside world for so many years. If Qu Li is from Xiling, he might be the bloodline of their Changsun family left behind outside.
But she is from Dagan, so she probably just looks like him.
The reason why Qu Li came to Xiling was to find the whereabouts of his biological father and solve some mysteries of the year, so he did not hide anything.
"You mean, you came to Xiling just to find your biological father?!"
No matter how calm Changsun Wuji was, his pupils still trembled.
"When I saw the Second Miss Changsun from afar at the Fireworks Festival that day, I became suspicious. So, I have an unwelcome request. I hope that Prime Minister Changsun will fulfill it."
Changsun Wuji fell into his own thoughts.
When he was almost thirty years old, his parents gave birth to a younger brother, named Changsun Wuque.
When he was ten years old, Changsun Wuque accidentally fell into the water and unfortunately passed away.
Everyone thought he was dead, and he was sad about it for a long time. It was not until he overheard his parents' words that he realized that Changsun Wuque had just faked his death. In fact, he was chosen to be the next captain of the Silver Wolf Guard to maintain the stability of the royal family.
The Silver Wolf Guard has a rule that the captain must cut off all emotional and romantic relationships.
The current high priest had a complete break with the royal family more than ten years ago. Some people say that in order to protect the royal family, Changsun Wuque was forced to retreat to Black Wind Cliff by the high priest, and his life or death is unknown.
Over the years, Changsun Wuque has never appeared in his dreams. He would rather believe that his brother is not dead.
"Old Prime Minister Changsun?" Qu Li called softly.
Changsun Wuji jumped out of his drifting thoughts and looked at her without blinking.
"Miss Qu, what is this unreasonable request you just mentioned?"
Qu Li was about to speak when a scream suddenly came from outside.
"She really looks like the Second Miss!"
"Cai Yue!"
Changsun Wuji spoke in a solemn tone, his eyes sweeping over sharply.
Caiyue came out in fear and trepidation and knelt on the ground.
"Master, I am just too surprised."
As she explained, she secretly looked at Qu Li.
From a distance, she does look very similar to the Second Young Lady, but from a close distance, she doesn't seem quite like her.
The second young lady was like a lotus emerging from the water, but the woman in front of him was as cold and pure as a snow lotus in the mountains.
"Do you think I look a lot like your second young lady?" Qu Li asked with a smile.
Caiyue nodded heavily, "At first glance, they do look alike, but if you look closely, you'll see their temperaments are different."
Qu Li curled her lips and looked at Zhangsun Wuji: "Old Prime Minister, my humble request is, can you give me a few strands of your hair?"
"this……"
Changsun Wuji was completely stunned.
How could this be considered an unreasonable request?
"Although my body and hair are inherited from my parents, since I have made this request, I must have a compelling reason! I hope that the old Prime Minister will grant me this."
After pondering for a moment, Changsun Wuji nodded in agreement.
Qu Li successfully obtained Changsun Wuji's hair with the hair follicle, and then stood up to say goodbye.
Changsun Lingyue came hurriedly, but Qu Li had already left.
She felt a little lost, "Grandfather, why didn't you keep her?"
"If fate allows, we'll meet again!"
If she is really Wuque's daughter, then she has left a bloodline for Wuque!
As soon as he returned to the High Priest's Mansion, Qu Li entered the space.
When she saw the DNA test report, her hands shook violently.
She is actually the child of the Changsun family!
Qu Li planned to see Changsun Wuji again, so that night, she used the space as a cover to avoid the guards of the High Priest's Mansion and went to see Changsun Wuji.
"Old Prime Minister, I heard that you have three sons?"
"I do have three sons, and I can guarantee with absolute certainty that they have never left Xiling!"
Qu Li's expression was solemn: "Old Prime Minister, I know that the Changsun family has very strict upbringing! But I have enough evidence to prove that I am a child of the Changsun family!"
"My three sons have indeed never left Xiling. I can swear on my life!"
Qu Li clenched his hands, his eyes full of resentment: "If that's the case, then I'll check it myself!"
"Miss Qu, please stay!"
She said in a cold tone, "Anything else?"
"Although my three sons never left Xiling, I still have a younger brother."
Qu Li looked stunned.
Changsun Wuji looked to be over sixty years old, and his younger brother was also estimated to be close to sixty.
How could Li Ran like a man so much older than her?
Can love really break through the barrier of age?
For a moment, Qu Li was speechless.
"When I was thirty, my parents had a son..."
He told her the details of Changsun Wuque's story, and Qu Li fell into deep thought.
