Chapter Ninety-Nine: Supervising the Wind Shadow

The weather in Tiandu is gradually getting colder.

Gu Qian looked at the "evergreen" in the courtyard, the surface of the long leaves, gradually gave birth to a layer of frost, after the sky cooled down, although this pot of green leaves was still "spiritual", but the leaves gradually wilted and closed.

He didn't know why a person like Gongsun Yue would raise such a pot of evergreen.

In Tiandu, dignitaries and nobles like to play with some antiquities, jade pendants, rare plants, or not annoying, they will personally boil eagle lackeys, like Gongsun Yue, people who run around all day long, hang several pieces of jade sent from within the three divisions in their hands, and occasionally play with some interesting things.

But the house was dead, and there was only living creature in it.

It's this pot of evergreen.

Even if you don't water for ten days, the green leaves will not decline, the climate is humid, and it often rains, this pot of green leaves, when Gu Qian and Gongsun Yue went out, it was placed in the open space of the mansion, in order to prevent excessive rain, Gongsun Yue will always carefully move it to the eaves corner of the eaves before leaving, so that the rain from the eaves can drip into the green leaf potted plants, so that it will not be flooded too much.

Gu Qian narrowed his eyes, he carefully recalled that before his file was destroyed, he had once stalked at a young man who lived in the Tiandu Sword Xinghou Mansion.

That young man, in the mansion, there is also a pot of green leaves.

Yes.

Ning Yi also raises green leaves.

Thinking about it at this moment, Gu Qian vaguely saw something familiar from Gongsun Yue's body...... Gongsun Yue, like the guy named "Ning Yi", is often silent, often underestimated, ill-fated, and difficult step by step, but ......

But never gave up.

Gongsun Yue lived a tenacious and lonely life.

He is the only subordinate in the Law Enforcement Division who is favored and selected by him, and over the years, Gongsun Yue has often said some "secrets" to himself that should not be leaked, and everyone is afraid of the guy in the big red young secretary's linen robe, not only because of Gongsun Yue's face.

The power conferred by the Crown Prince.

There is also a glimpse of the so-called Fourth Division of Supervision.

But in fact, Gongsun Yue is a person who doesn't want to be lonely.

Gu Qian often looked at the face that was habitually veiled under the red robe, and Gongsun Yue sometimes sat in the carriage, showing a faint smile when passing by the mountains and fields where no one was around.

There were many people who sympathized with themselves before, and felt that they must have had to do it as a last resort by Gongsun Yue's side, and he couldn't live long if he followed Gongsun Yue as a living king of Yama...... But as time passed, Gu Qian was safe, and the original sympathy slowly turned into a kind of fear, and finally turned into a vague anger.

Gongsun Yue is the king of Hades.

Gu Qian is a little ghost.

Although Gu Qian had a gentle and amiable face, he was always preparing paper, pencils, books, and the officials of Tiandu heard that the Supervision Department of the Fourth Division might have been preparing and might have secretly completed the construction...... This legendary shadow department seems to be searching for evidence of all the "guilty".

And Gu Qian, who has always been smiling, has been regarded as the ethereal record officer of the Supervision Department next to Gongsun Yue because of the book in his hand, an out-and-out "smiling tiger".

Many people think that Gu Qian and Gongsun Yue are inseparable, and they are collecting evidence of the three divisions all the time, and providing the greatest help for the prince to bring down the enemies in the court and China at any time.

But in fact it is not.

Gongsun Yue is a very mysterious person, and his whereabouts are almost unknown to everyone except Gu Qian.

And even Gu Qian only knew a rough idea.

I occasionally have a small long vacation of about "ten hours", and recently, this frequency is getting higher and higher.

Gu Qian knew the reason in his heart.

The book in his hand did not record the potential crimes of any of the officials of the Third Division, and of course he had heard about the rumors of the "Supervision Division", but unfortunately, he really did not have the position of the Fourth Division...... Gongsun Yue transferred himself away briefly, and during the time of separation, he would meet with some secret people alone.

As for these things, they have nothing to do with him Gu Qian.

It's a kind of isolation.

Gu Qian's mood was a little complicated, the world said that Gongsun Yue was a ruthless and unrighteous cold-blooded monster.

But not necessarily for yourself.

There is not too much blood stained in his books.

Gongsun Yue has left himself out of the Fourth Division, and the notorious Supervision Department is still in the shadows, and when it comes to the surface, it may be attacked violently.

Gongsun Yue once laughed at himself and said that he would definitely not end well...... Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, after overthrowing Ning Yi in the Lotus Dojo, this "wolf dog" who has endured for many years was reused by the prince, and from that moment on, it was destined that he would do every bad thing that would not be seen in the sky.

The higher you stand, the worse you fall, as has always been the case in the history of Tiandu's eunuchs.

This seat was given by someone else.

To take it back, it's just a matter of words.

Gu Qian had a vague guess in his heart...... Gongsun Yue set aside himself from the Supervision Department, presumably as a kind of "protection".

......

......

Today, Gongsun Yue told himself that Zi Shimo came to the mansion to wait for him.

It's the beginning of ugly times.

Gongsun is rarely late, this guy is very punctual, Gu Qian gently kneaded the narrow leaves of Qingye, his mind was complicated, when he was on vacation, he would not really relax and rest.

From the day his file was destroyed by Shen Ling, Gu Qian never let go of that tight string.

What Gongsun Yue believes is that "Gu Qian" came to him from the very beginning of his entry into the Law Enforcement Division.

is not "Gu Qian" who has been chasing after the wind and shadows in the Intelligence Department for several years.

Shen Ling's "mystery case" has not yet been solved, what happened that night in Taiqing Pavilion is a clue that Gu Qian is looking for, his identity is very sensitive, the "shadow" of the prince will follow Gongsun Yue's side, and only when he is sent by Gongsun Yue can he regain his free body.

At that time, Gu Qian would seize every hour to find records in the literature and archives of Tiandu.

And alas...... As time went on, he seemed to be getting farther and farther away from the truth.

Until.

Until the advent of the "Inspectorate of Inspection".

The ethereal Fourth Division, but in essence, it is a shadow institution that holds all the secrets of the Heavenly Capital, and the Third Division is the eyes, ears, and hands of Emperor Taizong under the sun of the Imperial City.

And the "Supervision Division" is more like a reflection under the city wall.

It is the biggest support point for the prince to wrestle with the old forces, and now above the government and the opposition, the prince does not ascend to the throne of the real dragon, so he only takes care of the government for His Majesty Taizong...... And the DPRK and China always have the most bottom-line reason.

If the name is not right, it is not good.

As long as he does not sit in that seat for a day, the crown prince will not be able to use all his power, and it seems that there is no difference...... In reality, there is a huge difference.

Worlds apart.

Now this Tiandu is a game of chess, and the prince is the only chess player, after killing the rebellious and foolish brother, he expelled Li Baijing thousands of miles away in the east, in a corner of peace.

In the past three years, the sky has been peaceful, and the prince has been clean, and the situation has been set right.

His Majesty Taizong's light is too dazzling, but the crown prince has created a shadow existence like the "Supervision Division" in the underground of Tiandu, fearless of the strong light, and no one knows what his next move will be.

And Gu Qian, who is only one step away from the "Supervision Division", has been moved by this "Fourth Division" countless times.

As long as he can join the "Supervision Division", then he can get a glimpse of all the secrets of the Great Sui Imperial City.

Include.

The night of Taiqing Pavilion.

Xu Jin, Shen Ling's real cause of death.

Gu Qian's thoughts gradually condensed, he stared at the green leaves in front of him, his fingertips subconsciously rubbed the delicate frost on the leaves, in his mind, the images of Xu Jin and Shen Ling gradually zoomed in, and the farewell picture of two men in robes waving to himself in the alley was vivid.

It's been a long time.

After the archives were destroyed, he didn't even get a chance to drink.

The only thing that can be done is to aimlessly search for the so-called "truth".

Gu Qian's eyes were a little rosy.

Before he knew it, there was already a figure behind him.

"What do you think?"

A slightly hoarse voice sounded in the back of his head.

Gu Qian suddenly stirred, his fingertips trembled subconsciously, and pinched off one of the tips of Qingye.

Gongsun Yue, who was dressed in a red linen robe, frowned, squinted his eyes, stared at the green leaf that was missing a small corner, and heard a weak voice.

"Didn't sleep well...... Why are you late...... What about the time you say yes, and you're about to fall asleep......."

Gu Qian rubbed his eyes.

Gongsun Yue lowered his eyebrows, under the red robe, he couldn't see his face clearly, as if he was thinking about something, and after a short pause, he hummed softly.

"Something...... So delayed. ”

He crouched down and lifted the potted plant with both hands, and as he had done every time he had gone out before, he moved the pot of green leaves under the corner of the eaves.

"It's going out for a long time this time?" Gu Qian stood up, patted the robe on his body, and cheered up.

"This time it won't be long. But ......"

Gongsun Yue turned around, raised his head, looked at the cold wind of Tiandu, and said, "But the weather in Tiandu has been bad recently. It's going to rain heavily. ”

He patted Gu Qian on the shoulder, and the two of them left the mansion one after the other and closed the door.

Falling leaves.

Sitting in the carriage, Gu Qian subconsciously picked up a pen and paper to record the information of each trip.

"Where do you go next?" he asked.

Gongsun Yue pressed his pen down.

"Where to go next...... Not recordable. Gongsun Yue said softly: "Gu Qian, no matter what you see, rot in your heart, don't let others know." ”

Gu Qian was stunned, and his lips were a little dry.

Gongsun Yue looked out the window and said, "Recently, a lot of people have come to the sky, because of the northern border......

Gu Qian's heart sank.

Is there a war in the north?

This matter has been boiling and spread all over the audience, this battle is quite important, it is related to the face of the Great Sui, naturally many officials choose to enter the heavenly capital, submit invitations, and submit orders.

Gongsun Yue paused and said, "I just came back from the palace. ”

His expression was a little complicated, "I saw Luo Changsheng. ”

......
