When Gu Yun returned home, he was not very happy when he heard Bai Ko say this, but his expression was a little strange.

"There's only one serving of that ointment, right?"

"Yes."

"That's good."

"If there's any excess, I won't let you know."

"Hey!"

Bai Ko chuckled and stuffed an invitation into Gu Yun's hand.

"Sent by King Yan's Mansion, Princess Cheng celebrates her birthday, King Cheng invites you to eat and drink, the gift has been opened, and people will come back in a few days."

Gu Yun glanced at the date on the invitation and nodded.

"Okay, I'll reply tomorrow, I'll go."

"Yes."

Ning Peilan, the princess of Chengjun, on her first birthday after her marriage, was naturally very lively, Ning Peilan invited her little sisters, and the palace chief also invited her buddies and brothers, and they were lively and lively in the Yanwang Mansion, and after this birthday, the couple would officially move to Tianshuifang to be neighbors with Gu Yun, and then invite relatives and friends to participate in the warm house banquet of moving to a new home.

Gu Yun came to the Yanwang Mansion at the appointed time with the congratulatory gifts prepared by Bai Ko, first visited the old prince and the old princess all the way, and finally was led by the family to a small garden with a pleasant scenery in the palace, where the birthday banquet was set up, surrounded by rockeries and buildings, and a small pond with koi fish.

At this time, there were already many guests, and the palace chief greeted the male guests in the garden, and the female guests were led up to the building to chat with the princess.

Gu Yun first went up to the second floor to pay homage to the birthday star, there were seven or eight women sitting in the room, both married and unmarried, and a room of servant women and girls standing in the corner, Gu Yun glanced at the audience, there were people and familiar faces, and he also saw Tong Mingli who was sitting in front of the window and watching the scenery.

Tong Mingli and Ning Peilan are good sisters, everyone knows that it is normal for her to come to her sisters' birthday party, not to mention that she is willing to go out No matter what, it is always a good thing, Gu Yun didn't think much about it, and greeted the ladies and ladies present with a smile, with thoughtful etiquette, which made people comfortable and comfortable.

Seeing Gu Yun coming, Tong Mingli was excited in her heart, but she sat still dignifiedly, when Gu Yun saluted her, she also maintained everyone's beautiful demeanor to return the courtesy, carefully hiding her little secrets to avoid being exposed in front of others.

Gu Yun went downstairs after meeting with the female dependents, laughing with his buddies and brothers, and the female dependents could see them from upstairs at a glance, and five or six out of ten sentences were on those men.

Tong Mingli looked at Gu Yun's every move with good eyes, wherever he went, her eyes followed, occasionally lazily coping with the chats of the sisters, as there were more and more guests, the female dependents were becoming more and more lively, everyone gathered in front of the window to look at the scenery of the garden below, Gu Yun, who has been in the spotlight these days, naturally became the focus of everyone's conversation, and a group of people chattered about who Gu Yun would marry in the future.

As a military meritor, the Yeguo Mansion that is now taking the imperial examination belongs to an undoubted first-class family in the circle of magnates, and the second-class family generally refers to the bureaucratic family and the scholarly family, plus the clan and the royal relatives, forming a large circle of intermarriage, Gu Yun's family background and his personal conditions, marrying the daughter of the clan is qualified, Tong Mingli listened to the comments of the nobles and ladies in her ears, and became more and more sad, but she maintained an indifferent expression on her face very well, and never let people see her thoughts.

Ning Peilan, as a birthday star, warmly entertained every guest, when she walked to Tong Mingli with a plate of exquisite dim sum and wanted to greet her to eat, she saw Tong Mingli's expression, her eyes kept looking out the window as if she was in a daze, and couldn't help but look in the direction of her gaze, and saw Gu Yun who was standing on the side of the rockery and talking to the palace chief.

Tong Mingli can't be peeking at her husband, then it can only be Gu Yun.

Ning Peilan sighed in her heart, and did not interrupt Tong Mingli's thoughts, today is her birthday, and she doesn't want to cause any accidents, so she turned around and beckoned others to eat, and divided all the plates of snacks before temporarily leaving the window.

Tong Mingli's careful thinking, as a good friend, Ning Peilan has long known that many girls of the same age have more or less fantasized about marrying Gu Yun, but later it came out that Gu Yun temporarily did not discuss marriage, the girls married each other, Ning Peilan herself was also engaged, and she was too busy with her own marriage and business, so she didn't care who Tong Mingli liked.

Unexpectedly, today, this Miss Tong's heart has not changed.

Ning Peilan shook her head, reassuring her discovery for the time being, and waited for the birthday banquet to send off the guests, and then discussed it with her husband.

At the same time, Gu Yun and Gong Changji, who were talking on the edge of the rockery, carefully avoided the people who came and went in the garden, and talked while walking on the topic of small talk, and finally disappeared in a dead corner of the rockery, and even Tong Mingli, who was upstairs, couldn't see them.

In fact, the two of them got into the belly of the rockery, which can only accommodate children to play in it, and the two young people who are about to be twenty years old are quite crowded standing here, and they can't stretch their hands and feet, so they can only hunch their backs against the cold mountain.

"It's a small place." Gu Yun carefully found a position on the back of his head that wouldn't knock on, "Did you find something?" You're fast enough, and you're still married. ”

"It doesn't take much effort to inquire about the Bai family's place of exile."

"No suspicion, right?"

"No, let's talk about Bai Ko first, then talk about the Bai family, and then bring out their prison place, I found that I can also make a confession."

"Yes, yes, how capable you are, King Chengjun. Tell me quickly, where are they serving their sentences? ”

"Spring Water Castle."

"What? Spring Water Fort? That's right? ”

"I'm not wrong, and you heard it right, Spring Water Fort, which is rich in minerals, is also the most famous place for exile prisoners to serve their sentences."

"Hey, it's clearly the place with the highest mortality rate."

"Do you want to stick to your ideas?"

"Yes, send someone to go, the miners in Chunshui Fort have died a lot, but it doesn't mean that the Bai family is dead, whether they are dead or alive, what is the current situation, we must find out clearly."

"Okay, when I finish moving in the next few days, I will send someone to set off, so that they can bring back the results of the investigation before and after the Chinese New Year."

"Thank you."

"Be polite to me, let's go, get out quickly, I can't straighten my waist."

The two sneakily slipped out of the rockery and returned to the group as if nothing had happened, and the palace chief walked around beckoning the male guests to take their seats, and the luncheon began at any time.

Tong Mingli in front of the window on the second floor saw Gu Yun reappear in sight, and her anxious mood eased, she was a little curious about what Gu Yun and the palace chief were doing when they disappeared, but after seeing Gu Yun sit down at the wine table, Tong Mingli didn't think about this problem, and only cared about watching Gu Yun talk and laugh with others, even if she couldn't hear his voice, just looking at his face was enough to be satisfied.
