Zhao Shuxuan followed behind Gu Qingyuan, not far away. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Following Gu Qingyuan around one courtyard after another, Zhao Shuxuan found that the Gu Mansion was very different from when he first moved here, and everything was decorated in a very different way, with Accords, gardens, and ornamental pools all available. After Zhao Shuxuan took a closer look, he also found that all the beams and pillars in Gu's mansion were carved with lotus patterns, and these patterns were the same as the lotus flowers embroidered on his sleeves, only half of them.

Zhao Shuxuan looked at these stone pillars engraved with half lotus, and then thought of the half-lotus pattern on Gu Qingyuan's cuffs that day, and only felt that this half lotus must have some meaning.

She looked at Gu Qingyuan's back, and once again had an illusion, as if she saw endless loneliness from him.

Gu Qingyuan didn't stop until he walked to the farthest place from his yard, and Zhao Shuxuan saw the man in purple, that is, the guard who had always appeared beside Gu Qingyuan, pushed the door out of the house, and carried a two-layer food box in his hand.

When he saw Gu Qingyuan, he immediately walked over quickly, glanced at Zhao Shuxuan who was standing behind Gu Qingyuan, retracted his gaze and said to Gu Qingyuan: "Master, she ate the food she took over." ”

Gu Qingyuan nodded slightly, turned to Zhao Shuxuan and said, "Didn't you come here to find her?" ”

Zhao Shuxuan hooked her lips and smiled: "That's right, it's looking for her." ”

Gu Qingyuan squinted his eyes and motioned for Ji Ye to take her over, but he had no intention of going.

Zhao Shuxuan took two steps, stopped beside Gu Qingyuan, and asked with a smile, "Isn't Mrs. Gu going with me?" ”

"Ji Ye is here, you are not in any danger."

Zhao Shuxuan heard him say this, but shook his head with a smile and said, "Mrs. Gu is resourceful, maybe I need your help?" And......" she paused, "aren't we allies?" ”

Looking at her wicked smile, Gu Qingyuan really planned to go with her for a moment, but unfortunately he was never willing to contact women, so in this huge Gu Mansion, there were only three maidservants, and the others were all male servants, and the only person he really came into contact with was Ji Ye, and there was only one person who could enter the courtyard where he lived.

Gu Qingyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, looked at Zhao Shuxuan's eyes extremely seriously, and said slowly: "You should smile more." ”

Zhao Shuxuan was choked by his cold words, there was no smile on his face, and he was left with a cold breath, and sighed secretly in his heart, don't worry about this inexplicable person, let's do the right thing first.

Zhao Shuxuan walked quickly away from Gu Qingyuan's sight, Ji Ye pushed open the door in front, and Zhao Shuxuan then stepped in.

As soon as he entered the house, Zhao Shuxuan smelled a faint smell of herbs, and as Zhao Shuxuan walked into the room, the smell of herbs became heavier and heavier, and over the screen, the woman's figure came into Zhao Shuxuan's eyes.

After many days, this woman named Rou'er seems to have gotten a lot better, and the bruises on her face have gradually faded. She was dressed in the clothes of a servant, very clean, the wounds on her hands were bandaged, and at the moment there was still a half-eaten meal in front of the bed. It seems that her treatment in the Gu Mansion is quite good, and Gu Qingyuan does not treat her lightly.

When Rou'er saw Zhao Shuxuan walking towards her, she instinctively stepped back, like that day, curled up at the innermost edge of the bed, hugging her legs, maybe because she saw Ji Ye, she didn't look particularly scared, just stared at the woman walking towards her.

Zhao Shuxuan walked to her collapse and sat down, reached out to take her hand, Rou'er dodged vigilantly, and asked urgently, "What do you want to do?" ”

Zhao Shuxuan was not surprised by her reaction, just smiled gently, and said after a while: "Don't worry, I won't hurt you, I just want to ask you some questions, can you answer me?" ”

Rou'er still looked at Zhao Shuxuan vigilantly, and didn't answer, just looked at her like that.

"Why did Aunt Xiao lock you up in the backyard? She seems to want to kill you. Zhao Shuxuan didn't want to beat around the bush, so he said directly.

Rou'er's eyes trembled, and a trace of fear immediately appeared on her face, and she murmured, "I don't know anything, I don't know anything." Don't ask me, don't ask me. She shook her head as she spoke, as if she remembered some terrible image, and her face turned pale.

Zhao Shuxuan was very calm, a little calm and a little cold. "If you don't say anything, I can't help you, maybe Aunt Xiao's people will still kill you in the future."

Rou'er looked at Zhao Shuxuan and was shocked by her words.

"Not only will you not survive, but your brother will also die."

Hearing this, Rou'er exclaimed and trembled: "No! No, it won't! She looked at the little girl sitting on the edge of the collapse in disbelief, the fear in her eyes almost stopping her heartbeat.

"Don't you know Aunt Xiao's methods?" Zhao Shuxuan sneered, only feeling that this girl was still not deeply involved in the world, and she didn't know anything about the methods of those ruthless people.

Rou'er's body was pressed against the wall, her whole body was trembling, and her mouth repeatedly murmured, "Impossible...... Impossible......"

"You are the only witness, are those people likely to keep you alive? You avoided the disaster, what should your brother do? Zhao Shuxuan's words were heart-wrenching, which made Rou'er more and more excited after listening to it.

Rou'er's only spiritual sustenance in this world is her younger brother, if she didn't have to support her young brother, how could she step into this filthy Huamenlou, everyone only knows that she is an orphan, and has no relatives, how can the little girl in front of her know the existence of her younger brother.

Rou'er gradually calmed down and asked blankly, "How do you know?" ”

"Why is it so hard to know? If you want to save him, you can only trust me absolutely, I can guarantee your brother's safety. ”

"What guarantees do you have?" Rou'er bit her lip and smiled bitterly, the person sitting in front of her was just a little girl who had not dried up, how could she fight those people.

Zhao Shuxuan saw that she didn't believe her appearance, and she didn't care. "He's already in a safe place, if you do what I say, you can leave the capital with him in just a few ****."

Rou'er clenched her fists, only hating her bad fate, but she bumped into that scene, she looked at the girl in front of her with a determined expression, her eyes closed slightly, and she gritted her teeth and asked, "What should I do?" If it weren't for the people in this house who saved her, maybe she would have been walking on Huangquan Road, separated from her younger brother Yin and Yang.

Zhao Shuxuan reached out again to hold the woman's hand, but Rou'er didn't dodge anymore, letting her hold one of her hands and quietly waiting for her to speak.
