35. Deterrence

Su Qing held the futon and stayed on the recliner outside for a night, and when he brought the basin to wash, he saw two miserable dark circles at a glance. As soon as I looked up, I saw Aunt Qin floating slowly in front of me, and there were words in my mouth: "Young people sleep so badly, and it is inevitable that people will be old and yellow in the future, alas, ......"

It's not because of your relationship! Su Qing's forehead twitched, and after reciting "I can't beat her" a few times in his senses, he took a deep breath and restrained the urge to go up and fight.

When I was in the room, I vaguely felt a little noisy outside.

Covering the tiredness on his face with fat powder, Su Qing pushed the door and walked out, only to find that a large number of people had come to the first floor at some point, and the entire lobby was noisily filled.

And yesterday's arrogant official was holding a flattering smile at this time, rubbing his hands weakly, and his demeanor was more dog-legged and dog-legged: "I didn't expect that two adults came here on business, the small one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he has been offended before, and he also invites adults to have a lot of them!" Bear with me! Bear with me! ”

Bu Xianyin played with the token in his hand, and a slight smile tugged at the corner of his lips: "What, hasn't Lord Fu Yin come yet?" ”

"It's coming! The next official is here! Please ...... Ouch! The person who was hurrying outside the door had just taken a few steps into the threshold when Lin Ying lifted his leg and fell to the ground in a dog-eating posture.

Lin Ying raised her eyebrows and said, "The master will come down in a while, don't make a noise." ”

Chen Youwei was feeling dizzy under this fall, and when he heard the words, he realized that he had almost exposed the identity of the regent just now, and a thin layer of sweat suddenly fell on his back.

He didn't care about the gaffe, stumbled up, and said with palpitations: "Yes, yes, yes, the lower official is waiting for Master Gu downstairs." ”

The official next to him looked at the miniature mouse-like appearance of his adult, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

I thought that the two sons in front of me were already nobles from the capital, but I didn't expect that there was an even more prominent person upstairs?

Several people looked at each other for a while, and they all saw the panic in their eyes, and immediately lowered their heads and looked at their noses and noses, and with the attitude of protecting themselves, they didn't dare to come out again.

However, they still underestimated Gu Yuan's faction after all.

Walking out of the door, he walked downstairs step by step, and when he arrived in front of Chen Youwei, he didn't wait to speak, and without saying a word, he raised his foot and kicked the person to the ground.

Like a round ball, Chen Youwei's fat body rolled all the way like this, and finally hit the pillar in the corner heavily.

After a dull crash, it finally stopped in a cloud of dust.

Chen Youwei snorted a few times, only to feel a little fishy in his mouth.

The pain in the whole body was unbearable as if it had fallen apart, but he didn't dare to slack off at all, and his huge body struggled very flexibly after a few twists, and crawled back to Gu Yuan.

With his head down, the light fell on the tip of his shoe in front of him, and he didn't say a word under the cold sweat.

Lin Ying had already moved a chair, Gu Yuan sat down, glanced at the person kneeling in front of him respectfully, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "Lord Chen, I have been an official for many years, and my way of handling things is getting more and more sophisticated." ”

Chen Youwei was a little weak by his indistinct words, but fortunately he was kneeling, otherwise he would have fallen to the ground with weak legs.

The sight that fell on his body was very faint but enough to cool his heart, and he had never felt a sense of surprise in his heart, so he mustered up his courage before he dared to reply with a slight stammer: "Hui Wang...... Looking back on the old man's words, the lower officials are really conscientious and conscientious in controlling the floods, and they ...... Even if there are shortcomings, they are really beyond our power...... Also, please take care of it. ”

"Oh." Gu Yuan's tone was slightly prolonged, as if he was smiling, and said, "It seems that Lord Chen's presentation to the capital is as bothered as you are to control Tuzhou." ”

Chen Youwei shuddered sharply, his face as white as paper.

All that happened last night, the incumbent officials had already passed it on to him, and he knew that there were obviously some things that could not be hidden, so he could only say bluntly as if he were dead: "Master atonement, atonement!" It's really not that the lower officials want to deliberately conceal it, after all, this kind of thing is too weird and chaotic, it is a taboo in Beijing, and the lower officials don't dare to report it indiscriminately, for fear of messing up people's hearts! ”

The reason why he concealed it and did not report it was naturally because he was afraid that these strange things would inevitably hinder his official career if they were spread.

However, the current high-sounding words are not nonsense.

You must know that when Gu Yuan helped the little emperor ascend the throne, what kind of obscurity was hidden in the lives of countless people under his hands, although many people did not dare to spread it in the open, they were somewhat discussed in private.

Everyone knows that the bloody storm of the year was a deep thorn in the heart of the regent, and many secrets are unknown and unknown.

Since the little emperor ascended the throne, there has been an unwritten rule by default, which is particularly taboo for such strange things.

If you can not be involved, you will not be involved, and everyone will avoid it.

Chen Youwei's heartfelt words fell, but seeing that Gu Yuan was silent, the panic in his heart suddenly became more and more intense.

Bu Xianyin stepped forward leisurely, helped Chen Youwei up from the ground quite politely, carefully patted the dust on his official uniform for him, and smiled warmly: "Lord Chen has always been conscientious as an official, how could my master not know." It's just that what happened in Tuzhou just made us a little interested, and if Lord Chen could know everything, he could solve a lot of confusion for us. ”

Such a smile is like a spring breeze, the more Chen Youwei listens to it, the more panic in his heart becomes.

I thought that a few people just happened to pass by here and were disturbed by these evil spirits, so they became angry with him. But now listening to the meaning of these words, these people actually came to Tuzhou on purpose for these tricks, and the strictness of the period is completely different.

His eyes as big as mung beans glanced at Bu Xianyin's expression, and suddenly said with a solemn face: "What do you want to know, just ask the lower officials, the lower officials must know everything and say everything!" If there is anything you don't know, you will definitely send someone to inquire about it! ”

Bu Xianyin patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I knew that Lord Chen's appearance was a little stupid, but he must know better than anyone else in his mind." ”

"This kind of inn is too simple, I'm afraid it will insult Master Gu's identity, and I ask you to move to the humble house, so that the lower officials can fulfill the friendship of the landlord." Chen Youwei couldn't tell whether he was praising or belittling, so he could only grin with the corners of his mouth sweating. His gaze drifted over Gu Yuan's angry face, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva in a dry throat, if it weren't for the fact that the whole person was always holding a breath, he felt that he could be paralyzed almost at any time.

Seeing that the officials were running around and arranging under the orders of their own adults, Su Qing watched in amazement from the side. I had only heard of how the regent turned his hands into clouds and rain in the court, and I had never seen it with my own eyes, but today I saw that this Lord Yin of the Mansion looked like a grandson seeing Lao Tzu, and this really appreciated what kind of status Gu Yuan would have in the court.

The upstairs door opened, and Xun Yuelou, dressed in white, fell into everyone's eyes, unconsciously attracting a large amount of attention.

In the midst of all the attention, his gaze seemed to fall without focus, and finally fell on Su Qing's body like a breeze, and then he slowly paused, and walked down from the stairs as if no one was around.

This way of appearing was already extremely low-key, but in such a breezy posture, people subconsciously wanted to cast their eyes on him.

However, Su Qing's gaze passed through him and fell on the silent attendant behind him, his eyebrows slightly twisted.

- No, when I saw Xun Yuelou last night, I didn't see anyone else in his room.

Under such a gaze, the attendant who had been following him respectfully seemed to be aware and looked up.

When they looked at each other, their expressions were slightly stagnant, and after touching them like a dragonfly, they lowered their heads again.

Su Qing's pupils widened suddenly, and he was almost choked by his own saliva, staring directly at this young man who had turned into a look but could still be recognized by him at a glance, and suddenly glared towards Xun Yuelou.

Xun Yuelou was a little puzzled by her sudden anger, and when she got closer, she said, "Why are you angry." ”

Su Qing was choked by his very innocent tone, and when he saw that Gu Yuan and the others had already left the inn, he lowered his voice. Although he had tried his best to suppress his feelings, it was still difficult to hide the anger in his tone, and he asked almost word by word: "Who asked you to bring Amo here!" ”

Although she has disguised her appearance, after all, she is too familiar with each other, and she can recognize her little Mo at a glance. And Ah Mo has always been obedient, if he hadn't been instigated by someone, how could he have stayed in Beijing without listening to her and waiting for news, and suddenly followed him to this place in disguise!

In the obvious unhappiness of her reply, Su Mo raised her eyes, and her expression showed a little apology.

With such a look in his eyes, Su Qing's heart couldn't help but soften, and he sighed helplessly, waiting for Xun Yuelou's explanation.

However, all I had to do was say, "Qin Xin asked me to take him." ”

Lu Qinxin. It's Lu Qinxin again! If Lu Qinxin asks you to become a monk, shouldn't you also obediently go directly to the temple!

Su Qinggang's calm feelings couldn't help but be irritable again, looked at Xun Yuelou with a blank expression, and then looked at Su Mo, who was very apologetic, only to feel a breath in his chest.

Suddenly he didn't want to say another word, turned around and walked out of the inn.
