Southern Qi Fenghua Record

Hearing this, Bai Shao finds a chair and sits down, as if suddenly plunged into the memories of the past.

Her silence didn't last long, and she heard her say: "Bai Shao and I were twin sisters originally named Tong. Although our family was not rich when we were young, our parents loved us and treated our sisters as treasures. We live happily ever after. It was quite peaceful. Later, the bullies in the next village fell in love with my mother and took my mother away while my father was working in the field. My father went to find my mother when he found out, and he never came back after that. People in the village Seeing that we were pitiful, they adopted us. The family that adopted my sister was named Bai, so my sister was renamed Bai Shao. And I was adopted by the Yi family, and I changed my name to Yi Wu after my adoptive father. But the good times didn’t last long. When we were six years old , A large number of bandits came to the village. They burned, killed and looted all kinds of crimes, and everyone in the village died. That day I just invited my sister and a few children from the same village to go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, so I survived. Lead troops to quell the chaos and save us..."

"So you and your sister went to the Mausoleum Mansion?" Xia Houshu sighed.

Bai Shao nodded and said: "It is true that we were taken in by King Ling, but we did not go to King Ling's mansion. As for where we went, I can't tell you."

Xiahou Shu choked, she didn't expect Yi Wu's temper to be so cool, and she actually appreciated it a little bit.

However, now is not the time to cherish each other, Xia Houshu coughed and reminded: "You haven't said why you switched identities with your sister yet."

Bai Shao thought for a while, then continued: "The few of our surviving children all went to that place, a total of eight people. After arriving, my sister and I and another girl named Yaoyao were sent to learn dancing, and the other five The boys went elsewhere and I haven't seen them since."

Xia Houshu realized that Bai Shao had already reached a critical point, so he didn't dare to interrupt, and waited for her to continue with a full face of expectation.

Bai Shao seemed to have had another ideological struggle, and the kick on the chest by Xia Houshu was not light, so the pain made her expression a little distorted.After a while, she continued: "We were locked up in that place for ten years. During that time, we learned piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, dancing and how to seduce men. Of course, we also learned how to kill people."

Xia Houshu was secretly surprised, thinking how could there be such a place?It is comparable to the dead soldiers of Changqingmen.The difference is that the dead men of Changqingmen are said to have only learned how to quickly and accurately take human lives, and have never learned any piano, chess, calligraphy, let alone how to seduce men.

But what was King Ling's intention in establishing such a place secretly?

Thinking of this, Xia Houshu realized that Bai Shao still hadn't explained how their sisters exchanged identities.She wanted to remind her again, but was worried that if she appeared too eager, it would backfire.

Bai Shao hooked the corner of her mouth and said: "Don't worry, I will tell you what you want to know. As for what I can't say, even if you kill me, I won't say it."

With her words, Xia Houshu was really not in a hurry.She secretly calculated the distance between herself and Bai Shao, then sat down on the couch, and listened quietly to her narration.

Bai Shao said: "We can only leave that place when we are 16 years old, but our first task is to seduce an old man who can be our grandfather, and let him leave the family property to us willingly. If not, we will will be executed."

Xia Houshu was startled, and became more and more curious about the mystery she mentioned.

Bai Shao ignored her reaction and continued: "That old man is called Ma Rengui, the owner of Majiazhuang, and a wealthy local businessman. I heard that the two hills under his name have mined gold mines and iron mines respectively. The mines, his three sons and four daughters are all eyeing those mines, and he doesn’t know who to give them to, he has been hesitating. But we just want to gain his trust and get the property, how difficult it is!”

It's really hard!Xia Houshu sighed in his heart.Not to mention that the old man surnamed Ma has many children, even if he has no children and can become a wealthy businessman, he is not an ordinary person. How could he willingly hand over the family business and property he earned to a woman of unknown origin?

Bai Shao didn't notice the change in Xia Houshu's expression, and continued to recall while saying: "At that time, my sister and I were called Bai Shao to the outside world, and we regarded them as the same person. They were mainly responsible for hooking up with the Ma brothers and provoking their relationship. Yaoyao The appearance is delicate and gentle, which is what Ma Rengui likes, so we are responsible for approaching Ma Rengui. But Yaoyao is timid, and soon showed her flaws, which aroused Ma Rengui's suspicion. In order to keep Yaoyao, we had to take the risk and kill Ma Rengui. And forged the suicide note, asking Ma Rengui to leave the property to Yaoyao. But the Ma brothers are not fools, they not only tore up the suicide note in public, but also stripped Yaoyao naked to show the public. Yaoyao couldn't bear the humiliation, bit her tongue and committed suicide."

Xia Houshu was shocked again. No wonder the information she found before showed that there had never been a girl named Yi Wu in Lingdu. It turned out that their sisters shared the name of their elder sister Bai Shao.But in order to complete the task as soon as possible, the sisters dared to conspire to kill Ma Rengui. It seems that they are all ruthless people!

In order to avenge their father, the Ma brothers forced the girl named Yaoyao to death...

What a retribution.

Bai Shao smiled to herself, and said: "Yaoyao grew up with us, endured hardships and hardships together, and after going through life and death, we are already as close as sisters. When she died, my sister and I lost a relative, so we all decided to get married as soon as possible. To complete the task, even if you kill the Ma family brothers, you will not hesitate."

"Ma Rengui is cunning and cunning, but his sons are not as thoughtful as he is. Under the instigation of our sisters, they quickly fell out among themselves and started killing each other." When she said this, there was a smile on the corner of her mouth. Stronger, "However, this is exactly what my sister and I want to see."

Xia Houshu didn't answer, after all, she didn't approve of what the Tong family sisters did.

Bai Shao continued: "When the Ma family brothers were fighting endlessly, my sister claimed to be pregnant with Ma Dalang's child, and then deliberately had a dispute with the stubborn Ma Sanlang, so that Ma Dalang saw Ma Sanlang take her off the steps. I fell down and slipped the tire. The hatred of killing my son was so great that Ma Dalang turned around and asked someone to beat Ma Sanlang into a maimed man, so he could save his life. When Ma Erlang came back, I would pretend to be my sister Tell him that I am actually pregnant with his child, but Ma Dalang has no children, so he forced me to give birth to an heir for him, to help him secure the position of eldest son and eldest grandson, and to manage all the property of the Ma family. Ma Erlang naturally did not believe it, But I just made a small plan to let him see that Ma Dalang changed his old loving attitude after his sister's tire slipped, and he would fight with fists when he moved, and he softened his heart."

Xia Houshu couldn't bear it any longer this time, and asked, "Then who won in the end?"

Bai Shao smiled and said, "Of course my sister and I won."

Xia Houshu: ...

Bai Shao smiled and shed tears: "In order to keep my innocence, my sister went back and forth among the three brothers of the Ma family and suffered all kinds of humiliation, so after my sister and I got the property of the Ma family, we burned it down. Majiazhuang, let everything be reduced to ashes. Later, King Ling summoned me to perform a dance at the Palace of King Ling, but deliberately refused to let my sister go with me. My sister was very thoughtful, and found out that King Ling wanted to entertain Prime Minister Wang, and heard that Prime Minister Wang Naturally flirtatious, I guessed the intention of King Ling. My sister was worried that I would be humiliated if I went, so she went instead of me. Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Wang was really interested in it, and brought my sister back to the capital."

Xia Houshu silently sighed in his heart that this pair of sisters is really affectionate and sympathetic to their troubled times, but he has to lament that their methods are vicious and decisive, and they really are good knives!

It's a pity that this knife is in the hands of King Ling.

But after her strokes like this, Xia Houshu probably was able to connect the things that happened later.It is nothing more than the real Bai Shao, in order to protect her sister, voluntarily pretends to be her sister Yi Wu and commits herself to the high-ranking Wang Chonghou, and is brought back to the capital, lurking in the prime minister's mansion as an internal response.The real Yi Wu lived in the name of her sister, and finally became Yu Wenke's woman by accident.

Xia Houshu looked at Bai Shao and asked, "Then should I call you Yi Wu or Bai Shao?"

"Bai Shao." Bai Shao thoughtfully, "My sister died with Yi Wu's name, so I will live on behalf of my sister."

Xia Houshu nodded to show that he understood, and said, "Then, Miss Baishao, do you know how your sister died?"

This time Chang Bai Shao looked at her in surprise, and asked: "Didn't you check her all the time?"

Xia Houshu thought for a while and said, "Then let me put it another way. How did you know that I was looking into your sister's affairs?"

Bai Shao looked at her suspiciously, and said after a long time: "Of course I have my own way."

"Okay." Knowing that he would not be able to answer the question, Xia Houshu thought for a while, and then said, "Yinxiang told me that your sister seemed to have been poisoned before she died, so the prime minister's mansion quickly cremated her. And I also heard that your sister had a dispute with Prime Minister Wang before she died, so I suspect..."

"You suspect that Prime Minister Wang killed your sister?" Bai Shao said her words first.

Xia Houshu nodded solemnly.

Bai Shao pondered for a while, then suddenly said: "Then it should be him."

How sloppy?

Xia Houshu thought about it for a while, and decided to tell her what he thought, and said, "At first I also suspected that it was Prime Minister Wang, but I saw him holding a white jade plaque to remember the old friend... If it is not true, That means he is too cunning. By the way, the white jade plaque is in the shape of a peony flower, and your sister's name is Baishao, you should have seen it?"

Bai Shao nodded and said: "The peony jade card is indeed something that my sister carries with me, and she has never left her body for ten years. Maybe Prime Minister Wang has some true affection for my sister, so my sister is willing to be trapped by her. But if he really loves her Elder sister, I wouldn’t kill her and keep a jade token to pretend.”

About whether Wang Chonghou really loves Yiwu, Xia Houshu has no say. Sometimes she even feels that Wang Chonghou loves herself and power more than anyone else.Even if he tried his best to marry Princess Mingjia, it was just a tool for him to consolidate his power and status.But Yi Wu had real affection for Prime Minister Wang, but she didn't expect it.

Bai Shao stood up suddenly, and said very seriously: "I know you are curious, but I can't tell you many things. My sister's death is indeed inseparable from Prime Minister Wang. My sister had a dispute with Prime Minister Wang earlier. , it is precisely because my sister peeked at his important ciphertext. But before my sister could spread the news, she was poisoned and died. The reason why I have not gone to seek revenge on Prime Minister Wang is because it is still useful to keep him .And I have more important tasks now."

Xia Houshu felt that what she said seemed to make sense, but also seemed to be missing something, and she couldn't say what was missing.She really wanted to ask if her more important task was to check the content of the ciphertext, but thinking of Bai Shao's sincerity when she said that it was inconvenient for her to tell, she still held back.

Xia Houshu thought for a while, then a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he asked, "By the way, there are many exotic flowers and plants in the yard where your sister lives. Is your sister's poison related to this?"
