Zhao Gao, this dead tsundere (5)

A few days later, something happened in the hidden official.

Zhao Gao's father, Zhao Jie, died.

I heard that he died in bed when he was messing with a woman, and when he was carried out, he was naked and white, and he was only wrapped in a sheet.

He did some ridiculous things every day, and it is not surprising that he is dead like this, or that many people are waiting for this day in their hearts, and that his death is exactly what those people want.

When Gu Mian heard the news, the first thing that came to mind was Zhao Gao, although Zhao Jie's father was not qualified, but his blood was thicker than water.

After a day of restlessness at home, the next day, as soon as Gu Mian sent Gu Wang away, he ran to find Zhao Gao.

On the path outside the house, Zhao Gao was practicing boxing in a gray short fight, and he couldn't see the slightest sadness in one move.

Gu Mian only thought that he was buried in his heart, and stood aside and waited for him to finish a set of punches before he said softly, "Brother Zhao Gao, are you okay?" ”

Zhao Gao wiped the sweat from his head and replied to her, "What do you think?" ”

Zhao Gao said this skillfully, not only did not answer Gu Mian's question positively, but also skillfully misled Gu Mian.

When Gu Mian heard this, she automatically felt that Zhao Gao was sad about Zhao Jie's death, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she only frowned and looked at Zhao Gao with eyes that she thought she was 'loving'.

Zhao Gao looked into the distance with his back to Gu Mian, and only said leisurely after a long time, "Ah Mian, my father is dead." ”

He finally died.

Gu Mian stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Gao's hand and comforted him, "Brother Zhao Gao, you still have your mother, and Ah Mian." ”

Zhao Gao leaned over and hugged Gu Mian, "Yes, I still have Ah Mian." ”

Amian, don't think about leaving me, I've always only had you......

Gu Mian stayed with Zhao Gao all morning, and she didn't leave until noon dinner time, as soon as she left on the front foot, Steward Liu came on the back foot.

She rarely pinned an unknown pink flower on her head today, with earrings, the whole person looked much younger, and when she saw Zhao Gao, she was in a good mood and said, "The weather is good today." ”

Zhao Gao met her eyes, quickly looked away, and bypassed her back to the house.

***

Zhao Jie's death did not have any impact on the hidden officials, and people used him as a talking point after cooking for a while, and even the word Zhao Jie was completely forgotten.

Children's days always fly by, in the blink of an eye is the end of autumn, celebrate the harvest and worship the ancestors, this year there is no disaster and no drought in various places The harvest is good, the emperor is happy and even with the palace everywhere is relaxed, even the hidden officials who have rarely set foot have ushered in a few nobles.

The sun was good at noon, Gu Mian moved a chair to sit in the courtyard to bask in the sun, this chair was an old Taishi chair, which was originally an object in Zhao Gao's house, Gu Mian saw that the chair was wide and shrunk in it, and asked Zhao Gao with a shy face to move to his own house.

In fact, in addition to having a somewhat cold personality and a little little facial expression, Zhao Gao is also quite good.

When he shrunk into the chair and fell asleep, Gu Mian thought so.

"Gu Mian! Gu Mian! Liu Hu's voice sounded from a distance, gradually becoming clearer.

Gu Mian's whole body was soft and didn't want to move, so he snorted twice and buried his head in a comfortable position to continue sleeping.

Liu Hu didn't give her this opportunity, and after a while, the voice had reached her ears, with a little panting, thinking that he had come all the way "Gu Mian!" Don't sleep! It's noon! There are two people in our hidden official! I heard that it is a celebrity around the emperor! Don't you go to see it? ”

The loud voice kept ringing in his ears, and Gu Mian's sleepiness was gone, but he still couldn't get up in the chair, twisting his little face and asking him, "Are those two good-looking?" ”

Is it good-looking? Liu Hu touched his head and thought about it for a long time, and found that he was in a hurry to call Gu Mian, but he didn't see the faces of the two people clearly, so he had to say, "I didn't see it clearly...... But you can come with me to see it! After watching it, I realized that they were good-looking or not! ”

This bear child is determined to pull her to see it, right? Can't you let people take a nap?! Gu Mian grinded his teeth secretly, and his voice was soft and coquettish, "Brother Liu Hu, Ah Mian wants to sleep, you just let Ah Mian sleep......"

Liu Hu jumped up in a hurry, "Gu Mian!" Those two nobles were chosen from among us! I heard that I went to serve outside, and if I was picked by them, I wouldn't have to suffer in this hidden official! ”

Gu Mian leaned his neck and slept sweetly, without moving.

His eyebrows were twisted tightly, Liu Hu paced back and forth in place for a few steps, and suddenly bent down and carried Gu Mian, who was soft into a puddle, onto his shoulders, "You sleep!" I'll carry you! ”

Gu Mian woke up suddenly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Liu Hu's legs in black trousers moving back and forth in front of him, and exclaimed, "Liu Hu!" You put me down! I'm going to go, can't I go?! ”

Liu Hu was unmoved, he was already strong and his strength was very comparable, Gu Mian was light and weightless, and it didn't matter if he carried it, and he walked quickly under his feet.

The stomach was pushed all the way by Liu Hu's hard shoulder, and it was easy to hit the ground with his feet, Gu Mian was disgusted and weak, his little face was pale with blood, and Liu Hu apologized vigorously.

There was already a row of people standing in front of the housekeeper's house, from the big to the adult strong woman to the small with drooping hair, everyone held their own thoughts and hoped that they would be lucky enough to leave this hidden official one day, Gu Mian glanced over and saw Zhao Gao standing alone at the end, she held up her spirit and shouted to him, "Brother Zhao Gao!" ”

After shouting a few times, Zhao Gao turned around, as if he had just seen her, he raised his left arm slightly and motioned for Gu Mian to come over.

Gu Mian immediately left Liu Hu and ran over, grabbed Zhao Gao's hand, looked up and said in surprise, "Brother Zhao Gao is here too!" ”

Zhao looked at her with a low head, and his voice was cold and did not show a trace of emotion, "Isn't Ah Mian here too." ”

Speaking of this, Gu Mian puffed out his cheeks and said angrily, "Ah Mian was originally sleeping in the yard!" Brother Liu Hu has to ask me to come! His shoulders are hard and a little uncomfortable! ”

Zhao Gao's eyes fell on Liu Hu, who was looking at him in a daze not far away, and moved away without a trace, raising his hand and falling on Gu Mian's head as if comforting, "Doesn't Ah Mian like him very much?" ”

The small hand stuffed in Zhao Hao's heart moved dissatisfiedly, and Gu Mian said, "No!" Ah Mian's favorite is Brother Zhao Gao! ”

"Really?" Zhao Gao lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes covered the inexplicable love in his eyes.

Gu Miantian smiled: "Of course it is!" ”

Zhao Gao's hand on Gu Mian's head gently stroked the hair that was not so smooth, and the black whirlpool in his dark eyes became bigger and bigger, as if he was about to get something involved.

Over there, Liu Hu was dragged by his mother and squeezed forward, turning his head and staring at Gu Mian stubbornly.

The group waited for half an hour before the door opened, and two chamberlains wearing brown scarves and narrow-sleeved robes with collars walked out of the room, and the steward bent down and smiled and walked out.

Gu Mian was looking at the gap between the crowd, and when she heard Gu Wang's voice, she pulled out her head and turned her head to look.

Gu Wang stood under the tree a few meters away and beckoned to her, "Ah Mian, Ah Niang got off work early today, can you make your favorite vegetable box to eat?" ”

Dish box! Gu Mian's eyes lit up, and he pulled Zhao Gao's hand, "Brother Zhao Gao, A-Niang is coming to me, A-Mian is leaving!" Brother Zhao Gao, you will definitely be chosen! ”

Gu Mian jumped and ran towards the woman, the mother and daughter held hands and left, Zhao Gao's eyes always fell on Gu Wang's back.

Although she smiled when she called Gu Mian just now, she couldn't hide the panic on her face.

What is she afraid of?

The white porcelain bottle, the surprisingly good wound medicine, the woman who still behaved like a slave, and her inexplicable panic, these things buried doubts in Zhao Gao's heart little by little.

Many years later, when he connected this qiē into a line, it was too late.

That afternoon, Gu Mian knew the result of 'picking people', Zhao Gao was selected unexpectedly, and with him was Qi Rui, who had a white face.

When Liu Hu told her this, his tone was full of unwillingness and pity.

In his words, Gu Mian is so beautiful, he must be favored by those two nobles, but Gu Mian just left halfway and cheapened Qi Rui.

For his words, Gu Mian smiled and said nothing.

She is only six years old now, and if she goes out, she will only be enslaved, and she may make a mistake one day and lose her life, so it is better to stay in peace and stay in the hidden official until she is fourteen years old and then find a way to get out.

***

A few days later, news came.

Qi Rui was dragged to the court and beaten to death for stealing sacrificial food, and the bad news reached the hidden official, and Qi Rui's mother fainted on the spot.

Gu Mian knew that in addition to sadness, he was more suspicious, according to what he knew about Qi Rui these days, he was not like a reckless and impulsive person, on the contrary, he was cautious, tactful and would please others, Gu Mian even felt that he would become a celebrity in front of which lady in the palace in the future, but now he did such a thing as stealing sacrifices, which made Gu Mian unable to understand anything.

One day, Zhao Gao came back from the air, and Gu Mian asked him about Qi Rui, "Brother Zhao Gao, Brother Qi Rui, did he really steal the sacrifice?" ”

Zhao Gao was packing up the clothes in the cabinet at that time, and when he heard the words, he didn't pause at all, and only said lightly, "I was caught on the spot." ”

The tone is casual, as if discussing something unrelated.

In the eyes of others, Qi Rui really has nothing to do with Zhao Gao.

It's just that Gu Mian didn't see the weird smile on Zhao Gao's face buried in the shadows.

After more than half a month, Zhao Gao did not come back, and when the news came, Zhao Gao had been left in the palace of His Majesty as a small chamberlain because of his neat work.

When these words reached Gu Mian's ears, she was really amused, it was true that there would be this kind of 'pink eye' everywhere.

It's funny, it's funny, but Gu Mian also sighed, Qi Rui and Zhao Gao were taken out of the hidden official together, and now one of the bones of the soul returning to the underworld is disposed of at will, and the other is fortunate to have a great future in the future.

In the following days, Zhao Gao couldn't move around at will every day because he was an internal servant, and he could only have the opportunity to go back to the hidden official every ten days and a half months, and Gu Mian only had a little time to get along with him at that time, but fortunately, Zhao Gao's personality made him close, and the only person who could get close to him was Gu Mian so far.
