CHAPTER XXVI
Gu Changlan's expression was no longer cold, but like melting ice and snow, he didn't say anything, the powerless sadness drowned people like a tide, making people breathless. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Is the prince sad for the deceased?" Yan Zhao looked at Gu Changlan, who had been looking at the light tower, and asked carefully.
The drizzle is sticking to people layer by layer, quietly infiltrating people and falling into people's hearts.
Gu Changlan looked back at Yan Zhao, in the fog, she held the umbrella, tried to cushion her feet, and lifted the umbrella to his head, the expression on her face was delicate and innocent, and her eyes were full of concern.
He took the umbrella, put her under it, and whispered, "Yes." ā
Yan Zhao didn't know what to say, she was okay with arguing, but she wasn't good at comforting people.
She thought for a long time, and said a little clumsily: "Don't be sad, there are small peaches in the temple, I will pick them for you tomorrow." ā
Gu Changlan chuckled, reached out and touched the top of Yan Zhao's head, the soft and thin hair was unusually warm in his palm, and he said, "People are sad." ā
Then he stretched out his hand and pointed to the lantern tower in the distance to Yan Zhao: "The everlasting lanterns in the whole capital are lit in this lantern tower, if you light it, you are also here." ā
"Really?" Yan Zhao tried to look over, but there was still only a hazy light, which became a road winding up in the hazy mist.
"Really. Gu Changlan said.
Yan Zhao was thinking about going to the lantern tower to shine his ever-bright lantern, when he saw Yun Man running over in great strides.
"Master, the emperor is here. ā
Emperor!
Yan Zhao subconsciously hid behind Gu Changlan, Gu Changlan touched Yan Zhao's head comfortingly, and said, "Yunman, take Yan Zhao back, don't let the emperor's people find out." ā
"It's too late, the emperor didn't pass it on, and his subordinates had already gone to the bamboo building when they found out. Yun Man said anxiously.
Gu Changlan's expression was grim, there were only a few very tall ancient locust trees around him, with branches and leaves, dense bushes, towering into the dense fog, and not even a trace of wind could penetrate it.
"Take her up. Gu Changlan immediately made a decision and pointed to the ancient locust tree not far away.
Before Yan Zhao could react, he was pulled by Yun Man's arm and jumped two or three feet in a row, and disappeared into the canopy.
Didn't you say that Prince Gu had a very good relationship with the emperor? Why did Gu Changlan still feel like a great enemy, Yan Zhao thought with some puzzlement, seeing that Yun Man made a silent gesture to her, she knew that under the imperial power, there was no family affection, so she opened a branch a little and stared quietly in the direction of Gu Changlan.
After waiting for a while, sure enough, a person dressed in black color came up with two entourages.
When he got closer, Yan Zhao saw his face clearly, on his face that was exactly the same as Gu Changlan's, his bearing was gentle, his eyes were warm and affectionate, Wu was the wind, and he could be called warm and moist like jade.
Yan Zhao looked at his face, but for no reason there was a burst of disgust, and even the bottom of his heart was stirring with a touch of resentment.
Yan Zhao didn't dare to come out, suppressed the agitation in his heart, and pricked up his ears to listen to the movement below.
"The younger brother greets the royal brother. Gu Changlan was about to kneel on the spot, but was helped by Mu Cai.
"Changlan doesn't need to be polite, I see that you haven't entered the palace for a month, and you haven't gone to court, I know that you will live in Xiling Temple for a month at this time of year, and it just so happens that Imperial Doctor Shen's medicine has come out, so I came to see you. ā
He Wen, the eunuch beside Mu Cai, hurriedly took out a vermilion wooden box from his sleeve and respectfully handed it to Gu Changlan.
"Thank you, Brother Huang. Gu Changlan took the medicine with a faint expression and tucked it in his sleeve.
"Changlan didn't go with me to worship the sky, are you still blaming the concubine?" Mu Cai took the oil-paper umbrella in the hand of the attendant and looked at the lantern tower in the distance.
As soon as the words fell, Yan took care of it clearly, Gu Changlan's eyebrows and eyes changed, and he became cold and solemn: "She is the mother of the imperial brother, and she has nothing to do with the courtier's brother." ā
"It's the mother concubine who can't stand you, but after all, you are her flesh and blood, the deceased is gone, and Changlan should let go. Mu Cai frowned a little unhappily and said.
"If she cares about her flesh and blood, how can she let me grow up in the lonely mountain, and how can she feed me that medicine with her own hands, what is death, if she lives, I will ask her to give her life to the master. There was a hint of anger in the corners of Gu Changlan's eyes, like a Shura who thought he was asking for his life.
"Changlan, are you resenting me! Because of the poison expelled from me, your master will be plotted by others, and how can it be counted on the concubine. Mu Cai also grimaced and reprimanded.
"Brother Chen, don't dare. Gu Changlan said that he didn't dare, but he stood straight, like a feather arrow that was ready to be fired, and the hand holding the handle of the umbrella turned blue and white vigorously: "If the master is plotted by someone, I will find someone to fight hard, it is clear that she is afraid that the master will see me divulge the secret, so she will kill the killer, she is a motherly heart to the imperial brother, but I am a femme fatale!"
"Stop!" Mu Cai shouted angrily, but he also knew that Gu Changlan's suffering was caused by his mother, and he had his own reasons in it, he looked at his indifferent brother, and couldn't bear to reprimand, he was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "Who is the murderer still needs to be searched, my father and emperor are only two of us, so we can't be distracted by this." ā
Gu Changlan's hand was gently loosened, and he said in a low voice, "Brother Chen understands." ā
Mu Cai sighed and said, "The Imperial Forest Army is still waiting below, I have to go, I have enough to stay, let's go back to Beijing." ā
"Yes. ā
Mu Cai saw Gu Changlan with his head down, so he walked down the mountain, and when his back disappeared into the clouds, Yan Zhao was about to come down from the locust tree, when he heard someone clapping his hands "snapped".
"It's a scene of deep brotherhood, and it's really moving. Someone jumped down from a nearby locust tree and sneered.
Hearing the voice of the comer, Yun Man suddenly became nervous, jumped down with Yan Zhao in his hand, and flew in front of Gu Changlan.
Yan Zhao saw that the person who came was tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but with hatred, his heart tightened, and he also drew his sword and stood beside Gu Changlan.
"What are you doing here!" Gu Changlan said with an impatient expression.
"Naturally, I came to see if my junior brother had avenged my master, if my junior brother was blinded by family affection, then I had to clean the door for my master first, and then avenge my master myself, but I watched a good show just now, and I was relieved. ā
The person who came didn't put Yun Man and Yan Zhao in his eyes at all, holding the sword in both hands, as if smiling.
"How will Senior Brother take revenge? Kill all the Imperial Forest Army that accompanied him that day? Or dig out the concubine's grave and whip the corpse for three days?" Gu Changlan sneered.
"You were born with a seven-trick exquisite heart, I am naturally waiting for you to find out the real murderer, but there are not many days left for you, you must remember to find out the person before you die, otherwise I don't miss any old feelings, and I will kill him to the death." ā
The visitor glanced at the vigilant Yun Man and Yan Zhao, snorted disdainfully, and when the rabbit fell and fell, he came out of everyone's sight.
Yun Man's expression relaxed at this time, he glanced at Gu Changlan, but saw him wave his hand and signal him to leave.
Yan Zhao was full of questions, especially when Gu Changlan's senior brother said that he didn't have much time, and then thought that Gu Changlan said that the old injury had recurred one day, and vaguely knew that this was true, and her heart ached like a pinprick, she looked up at Gu Changlan, he looked at the distance with a dark expression, and Yan Zhao's eyes hurt with slightly furrowed eyebrows.
When the sky gradually darkened, he turned around and said to Yan Zhao, "Let's go." ā
