Chapter 179 Two pairs of sisters
Gu Yu and Gu Qin always kept Mu Qingyan's advice in mind, and after entering Fuyuan, the two brothers have been inseparable.
When so many people came to get them drinks today, they knew what was going on.
It seems that the mastermind behind today's birthday banquet is attacking indiscriminately, adhering to the principle of dealing with whoever he can deal with.
Not only do they have to deal with Prince Ling and Mu Qingyan, they also have to strike at the Gu family and all the loyal ministers and generals who are beneficial to the court.
However, they seemed to have overestimated themselves and underestimated King Ling.
Mu Qingyan looked at the two women. They looked somewhat similar and really looked like sisters.
Although it was winter, the dress was very thin, with only a layer of red gauze covering her neck, revealing a large area of snow-white, like the attire of women in brothels.
"Who are you?"
The woman who was replaced as the elder sister pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.
The younger sister wanted to say something, but was stopped by her with a glare.
Mu Qingyan lifted her skirt and sat on the beauty's backrest in front of the corridor. Her lazy and casual look made people unable to help but take a second look at her.
The beauty's face was like a lotus emerging from the water, but the words that came out of her red lips made people's backs cold. "Now I ask you questions, which is to give you a chance. But it doesn't matter if you don't say it. If the plan fails, your end will be death. But if you are unwilling to explain the cause and effect, it will not be so easy for you to die in my place. In this world, there are many ways to make people unable to die, but live a life worse than death. You can try them."
Her cold and determined look made both of them change their expressions, but it was obvious that the elder sister was more stable than the younger sister.
My sister is about to cry.
My sister sneered and said, "You born noble people, when will you ever take the lives of us ordinary people seriously? You can kill or chop us up, it's all up to you!"
Mu Qingyan raised her eyebrows. He is really a tough guy.
"My two brothers, please step aside for now. I want to talk to these two girls alone."
Gu Yu and Gu Qin looked at each other and left silently.
The younger sister was so anxious that she said, "Miss, we have no grudge against you. We had no choice in what happened today. We were born in an official family. Because our father was framed and imprisoned, we were implicated and confiscated into the Jiaofang Bureau and became official prostitutes..."
Although her sister's movements were restricted, hatred was blazing in her eyes. "You said this to her because you want her to sympathize with us! She is a noble lady. If she were to be with dirty people like us, she would probably feel insulted. And you still expect her to help us! How foolish!"
Mu Qingyan really wanted to say that not all noble ladies were so pedantic.
Even though they have been harmed, they should not hate all the rich and powerful people.
"First of all, I sympathize with your experience. Secondly, I am not the one who caused you to fall into this situation, so your hostility towards me is completely unnecessary. Today, no matter who instructed you to do so and for what reason, I can let it go and even help you now before the big mistake is made. But if you want to go all the way, then just ignore what I said..."
Mu Qingyan stood up after she finished speaking, and her sister hurriedly called her, "Miss! Please, save us!"
"Ayue!"
"Sister! Do you really want to be doomed forever? Our parents and brother are all dead, and we are the only two sisters left in our family! Do you want to stay in the Jiaofang Bureau for the rest of your life and be controlled by others?"
After hearing A Yue's explanation, Mu Qingyan learned that their father was originally the prefect of Tongzhou, a fourth-rank official. Their parents were loving and their brother was talented. They were originally a happy and harmonious family.
Three years ago, the bad news suddenly came that my brother died while he was out, and soon after that the warrant for confiscating the house arrived.
My brother died under unclear circumstances and my father was falsely imprisoned. Within two days, news came out that he committed suicide out of fear of punishment.
The mother couldn't bear the blow of losing both her husband and her son, and she died in a fit of emotion.
The two sisters were also sent to the Jiaofangsi.
At that time, they were still young, one was twelve and the other thirteen.
Therefore, she was always trained as a little girl and had never received any customers. Now she has grown into a beautiful and charming lady.
Today was the first time they received an order to come here and harm the two young masters of the Gu family.
Being in a place like the Kyoto Jiaofangsi where all kinds of people gather, they naturally knew what kind of family the Gu family was. The man promised them that as long as the matter was done, he would set them free. A family like the Gu family would definitely not abandon a woman after having incest. As long as they had physical contact with the young master of the Gu family, the Gu family would take them in for the sake of their reputation. Even as concubines, it was better than staying in the Jiaofangsi and being raped by anyone.
Just as A Yue finished her words, Gu Yu's voice came over, "Sister Yan, there are people outside! Grandma and mother are here... and there are many people..."
Mu Qingyan's mind was in a complicated mess. The person who controlled the sisters A Yue and A Xue behind the scenes must be the eldest princess.
The son of this prefect suddenly got into trouble, and he was falsely imprisoned and committed suicide. Were these things filed with the Ministry of Justice? Were they reported to the court?
Mu Qingyan signaled Gu Yu and Gu Qin to hide.
"Do you want to live an upright life? If you do, listen to me now. If you don't, I will throw you out right now!"
Axue didn't say anything. She didn't believe that Mu Qingyan would really help them.
But right now, she had no choice but to believe.
A Yue nodded hurriedly, "We want to live, we want to live well... We are still innocent girls, our bodies are not dirty..."
Mu Qingyan went into the house, extinguished the incense inside, quickly opened the window to let in some fresh air, and gave each of them a poison-repelling pill for self-defense.
The smell in this room won't dissipate quickly, so the anti-poison pills are just in case.
After the two sisters swallowed the pills she gave them, they fell asleep and lost consciousness.
When the eldest princess and her men rushed in, they saw two sisters in red clothes lying on the ground without a trace of life.
Nanny Chun stepped forward, checked her breath, and shook her head at the Grand Princess with a serious expression.
The eldest princess felt something was wrong. She had clearly led the people to this courtyard, so how could they disappear out of thin air? Were the two sisters dead?
Old Madam Gu was relieved that she didn't see her two grandsons.
Just now at the banquet, Nanny Chun suddenly stumbled in, crying and shouting, saying that she had caught the two young masters of their Gu family forcibly assaulting a woman and dragging her into an empty yard.
She tried to stop it and was injured.
There were indeed wounds on Nanny Chun's face, which looked like fingerprints left by a slap. They were red and very conspicuous.
Of course, Mrs. Gu didn't believe that her grandson would do such a ridiculous thing at someone else's banquet, but since it was related to her family, she had to come and see what was going on.
