In the deep courtyard, the water is murmuring, the frogs are still the cicadas, and the moonlight is reflected on the ground, but there are mottled bamboo shadows. A gust of wind blew, making the only sound between the world and the world, but it seemed more secluded. However, inside the house, under the faint yellow light, two long shadows were pulled.

"Master, it has been confirmed, the letter sent by the eldest young master was written by the eldest lady, the eldest lady, and His Royal Highness are not in danger of life, but it is said that His Royal Highness was injured and inconvenient to move, so he has been staying there, the eldest lady is taking care of His Royal Highness, think about it, there is the eldest lady here, and the return date should not be far away, the lord can rest assured. ”

"Hmph, she still knows that she will come back with a letter," it was obviously a reprimand, but it squeezed out of the mouth of this middle-aged man with an elegant face, but a faint hint of sharpness, domineering and majestic but restrained, and became so gentle and showed a trace of worry, "I also know that when I come back, my heart is wild," the corners of the middle-aged man's mouth unconsciously had a slight arc, but the next sentence began to become stern again," What does Jin'er think, is the battlefield also a place where girls should get involved, and let her go to the battlefield, if something happens, is he responsible!"

"The lord is angry, so good, the eldest lady has a natural appearance, His Royal Highness is even more blessed, all safe and sound, this is the best, you really can't get angry, and when they come back, you can teach it well, but I haven't seen the eldest lady for a long time, about five years, since the lord you called back to the capital, I haven't seen the eldest lady again, presumably the eldest lady has been out of the way, but, presumably I can see the eldest lady soon, and the lord can also put his mind at ease. There was an ordinary-looking man standing next to him, who looked no different from ordinary people, but his eyes flashed with a trace of essence that could not be concealed.

"It's been five years, Shu'er doesn't know how tall she has grown, she is very much like Ru'er, as beautiful, but unfortunately, her temperament is, I don't know who she looks like, by the way, she is the same as her third brother, playing around, and I don't know who can lower her," Guo Shun paused again, and looked to the west, "This year, Cai'er is coming back soon, it is said that with his political achievements, he will at least be a five-grade official when he returns to Beijing, and he is not small, it is time to think about him, Ru'er is not there, I should think about it for them." ”

Guo Shun's gaze gradually softened and there was a trace of pain, so that Guo Qu next to him couldn't help but remind, "Master...."

"I'm fine," Guo Shun waved his hand, Guo Shun's eyes slowly closed, his fingers tapped on the Nanmu table one by one, and his voice became colder: "What about over there, is there any news?"

Guo Qu thought for a while and said: " The East Palace said that it was the best for Zhang Ling of the Zhang family to take over, and the King of Chu had not moved, but he went to the Changchun Palace to visit the virtuous concubine Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Xuan went to the palace of King Xu almost every day, and stayed in the study for a while before leaving, King Rui went to the Changchun Palace with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and then closed the door, it is said that he fell ill because he was too sad, but there was no doctor to diagnose and treat, and the King of Chu did not go to the court these days, bathing and fasting at home and praying for blessings, and there was no movement in the Shoukang Palace, but I heard that the clothes of several mothers seemed to be plain。 ”

Guo Shun sighed, "Among these few, there are Xian Concubine Niangniang and His Royal Highness King Xuan, and the others, I'm afraid there are not many sincere ingredients, you are ready to send a golden turtle to Changchun Palace, but why does Your Majesty hide this..."

"I'm afraid I have to observe for a while, it's also bitter Niangniang, after this, just wait for His Highness to come back, and the master doesn't have to worry too much. ”

Guo Shun heard this and nodded, but he didn't know where he was going. The golden turtle, the turtle is a symbol of health and longevity, the turtle is homophonic, and the golden turtle is the meaning of peace.

"I still haven't been able to take care of her, the promise made back then is difficult after all......" Guo Shun muttered.

"Master, what are you talking about?" Guo Qu said suspiciously, but met Guo Shun's eyes with a sense of vicissitudes.

"It's nothing, keep staring, if His Royal Highness King Xu returns this time, this Lin'an City will no longer be peaceful, we are just chess pieces in the hands of His Majesty, no matter what, we can't escape his hands after all, it's just those people who can't see clearly." Guo Shun hooked the corners of his mouth with coldness.

Guo Qu looked at Guo Shun at this time, knowing that Guo Shun's mood was fluctuating at this time, and he didn't dare to talk, so he retreated silently, leaving this man who had been washed by wind and rain in the study.
