Chapter 330: The Snowy Night is Cold
In the next two days, Lin Yiren had a secret conversation with Zong Li, Qi Jing, and Jiang Nuo in the Luo Yu Pavilion, and in the middle of the night, there were more shadows in the Luo Yu Pavilion, obviously more than four people.
The outside of the palace is loose and the inside is tight, the atmosphere is extremely tense, Qiu Zhi often looks solemn and stays outside the courtyard, not knowing what he is thinking.
Regarding Lin Yiren's plan, Qiu Zhi did not report to Gu Liuying, Lin Yiren was the only person he was loyal to, but Qiu Zhi did not know whether what he did was right or wrong...... I only wish Yiren Antai worry-free, this is the words that Lin Yiran left to Qiu Zhi before his death, Antai is worry-free, and the word Antai is finally before worry-free.
"Qiu Zhi," hearing the familiar and soft footsteps sounding behind him, Qiu Zhi did not look back, "The prince's ability to act is very similar to his mother, but in his heart he is the same as our prince, this love word has always been the most sad, the prince does not seem to plan to keep Miss Gu by his side, you must not take the liberty of doing something to make him sad." ”
"This is the benevolence of a woman," Qiu Zhi said in a deep voice, "The prince's life and death are big, only by killing her can we stop everything in front of him, so how can the Nine Mysterious Caves be easily broken into?"
"Yes," Xuanniang was silent for a moment, and sighed faintly, "She has been playing in the dining room today, and now she is about to make chestnut cakes, I always feel that this girl is going to be eaten by the prince, you know, the prince likes the fragrance of chestnuts." ”
"You go back to the house first, and I'll go in half an hour. Qiu Zhi said.
Xuanniang hummed lightly, turned around and left, didn't take a few steps and stopped, "Turn back, don't let her be in pain, the prince can't see it." ”
Qiu Zhi was silent...... When he saw her again, she was a dead man, and even if she left with a smile, she was still a cold dead man. For the sake of Antai, he must suffer from the destruction of his liver and intestines, even if he knows that he will hate him for the rest of his life, he will still choose this path.
The dining room of the palace is not large, there are a total of five rooms inside and outside, two of which are for cooking meat dishes and vegetarian dishes, one room on the west side is for making porridge and cakes, and in the two rooms on the east side, one is for selecting vegetables and washing vegetables, and one room is for all kinds of wine vessels, pestles and mortars.
When Qiu Zhi pushed open the room to the west, Gu Xiaofan was concentrating on pouring the chestnut cake out of the wooden mold.
"Manager Qiu. The maidservant who was with her saluted Qiu.
"Miss Gu has also been playing for a long time, and the prince said to let her go back to the house to rest earlier. Qiu Zhi said.
The slave had persuaded her earlier, but Miss Gu refused to leave, for more than two hours, she only made cakes according to the cook's method, and others were not even allowed to touch them. The maidservant whispered.
"I'll go back when this cage is ready. Joe looked at the steaming steamer on the stove.
"Yes. The maid walked to the stove, lifted the steamer slightly, and a fragrance came to her nose, "Miss Gu, this cage of chestnut cakes is about to come out of the pot, let the slave and maid guard the next cage here, turn around and let it cool, and the slave and maid will help you bring it to the house." ”
Gu Xiaofan knocked on the mold, and carefully put the chestnut cake in his hand on the table, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven...... Eight small and delicate chestnut cakes are placed on the panel, which looks like a look.
"You see," the maid whispered to Qiu Zhi, "Miss Gu has always been like this, to say that she doesn't know anything, and seems to be a smart person, or she can learn how to make chestnut cakes, but when you talk to her, she doesn't react at all, which is really incomprehensible." ”
"You stay here, I'll send her back. Qiu Zhi said, stepped forward and bowed slightly to Gu Xiaofan, "Miss Gu, it's not early, the prince is going to sit with you for a while, please come back to the house with me now." ”
Gu Xiaofan picked up the steamer and carefully put the chestnut cakes stained with flour into the cage drawer one by one, as if he was deaf to Qiu Zhi's words.
"Miss Gu," Qiu Zhi's tone was slightly heavier, "The prince has a lot of opportunities, and if he doesn't go back, he won't see the prince in the next few days." ”
Gu Xiaofan looked at the steamer steaming on the stove, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Miss Gu," the maidservant quickly put the freshly steamed chestnut cake in the porcelain dish, "you serve this cage of chestnut cake to the prince first, remember to let it cool and eat, it will taste better." ”
Gu Xiaofan hesitated slightly, stepped forward to pick up the porcelain plate, put down his nose and sniffed.
"Incense?" said the maid tentatively.
Gu Xiaofan picked up the porcelain plate again and sniffed, stretched out his tongue, and gently licked the chestnut cake.
"Go back to the house, the prince must like to eat." The handmaid laughed.
Gu Xiaofan quietly picked up the porcelain plate, turned around and walked outside the house.
In the dark and dark night sky, there were small snowflakes, fluttering one after another, like smoke, Gu Xiaofan looked up at the sky, gently held the porcelain plate with his sleeve, and walked carefully, as if he was afraid that the snowflakes would fall on the chestnut cake.
"Miss Gu," Qiu Zhi followed behind Gu Xiaofan, "you are going in the wrong direction." ”
Since Gu Xiaofan woke up in the Mansion of King Xuan, she no longer knows the way, if no one leads her, she can't go to Lanxi Garden, she can't go to Langfeng Pavilion, she can't go to Luo Yu Pavilion, and she can't go back to her own house.
Gu Xiaofan looked dazed and stopped.
"Your house is heading there. Qiu Zhi pointed to the cloister on the left.
Gu Xiaofan walked to the left as he said.
In the corridor, the dark lanterns swirled in the cold wind, blowing away the hair of Gu Xiaofan.
The two of them were silent, and walked to the arch where the two courtyards intersected, and two inches-long flying needles suddenly appeared between Qiu Zhi's fingers.
"Miss Gu, please go this way. Qiu Zhi motioned for Gu Xiaofan to step on the bluestone path.
Gu Xiaofan held the porcelain plate and continued to walk, the thin back of his neck was very obvious in the pale moonlight.
Qiu Zhi looked at Gu Xiaofan's back and slowly stopped...... Two flying needles shoot out, which will pierce the back of Gu Xiaofan's head, causing her to lose consciousness in the shortest possible time, death will come immediately, and between him and Lin Yiren, there is bound to be a heart knot that can never be untied.
Antai worry-free, the word Antai is finally before worry-free.
Whoosh-whoosh-two silver rays shot out from Qiu Zhi's palm, heading straight for Gu Xiaofan.
Gu Xiaofan suddenly slipped under his feet, screamed and fell to the ground, and the porcelain plate in his hand shattered on the bluestone path. At the same time, two flying needles flew past Gu Xiaofan's ears and shot straight into the blue-gray stone wall.
Qiu Zhi's eyebrows jumped, "What person!"
There was silence all around, but the flying snowflakes brought a faint scent of orchids.
Gu Xiaofan knelt on the ground, hurriedly picking up the chestnut cake that had fallen to the ground, the hot chestnut cake couldn't stand the touch, it was either broken in half, or it fell crookedly, and it was completely out of shape.
Qiu Zhi gritted his teeth, his palms turned slightly, and the two flying needles shot towards Gu Xiaofan again.
When! The flying needle was shot down by the dark rubble and flew diagonally into the grass.
In the silent night, the whimper of Gu Xiaofan gradually floated, miserable, bitter, as if swallowing the yellow lotus in his mouth, but he couldn't say anything, couldn't get anything, couldn't look forward to anything.
Qiu Zhi hung his head gloomily and walked away. Lin Yiren didn't let him kill Gu Xiaofan, and he didn't want to turn against him, but in the end, he hurt him, and witnessed the pain of the most trusted person killing the woman he loved the most, how could ordinary people understand.
"Little fan. In the night, Lin Yiren walked out from behind the bamboo forest with a pale face.
He should be glad that all the arrangements before the winter solstice were settled half an hour in advance; he should be glad that he left Luo Yuge earlier than everyone else; he should be glad that on the way to Gu Xiaofan's residence, he happened to meet the maid who knew that Gu Xiaofan was making chestnut cakes in the dining room; he should be glad that when Qiu Zhi deliberately pointed Gu Xiaofan the wrong way, his intuition was surprisingly accurate.
Qiu Zhi wants to kill Gu Xiaofan, just like Yuan Muhuai wants to kill Yan Xinmei, the difference between the two is that the former does not want him to take risks for Gu Xiaofan, while the latter wants to clear the obstacles around Lin Jianzhi.
Small Fan ...... Gu Xiaofan turned around when he heard the sound, and when he saw Lin Yiren, his sobbing suddenly turned into a howl.
