Chapter 44: Diligence

The next day, the Queen Mother left Qingyun Mountain first, and the others would stay on the mountain for two days before leaving.

Gu Gu injured and needed to rest more, so she still slept peacefully in the other courtyard, Baili Muyan told the maid to wait for her to wake up and send her something to eat, don't say anything else.

Gu Yiyi was appreciated by the Queen Mother yesterday and was in a particularly good mood, and this also means that something will happen in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is justified.

Early in the morning, Gu Yiyi dressed up and came to Baili Muyan's courtyard, holding a brocade box in her hand, and the maid holding yesterday's red sandalwood strings.

"Excuse me, is the prince here?" Gu Yiyi asked the guard at the door.

Baili Muyan hadn't gone out at this time, and he had the habit of practicing swords when he got up early, but he didn't like to be disturbed, so the guards told him the truth: "The prince is practicing swords, who is the girl?" ”

"The little girl Gu Yiyi has heard that the prince likes the sound of the piano, so she came to visit the prince."

The guard took down her name and turned to enter the courtyard.

It takes about half an hour for Baili Muyan to practice his sword, and then he bathes and changes his clothes.

The housekeeper had already heard the guards say that Gu Yiyi asked to see her, so he slowly asked when Baili Muyan was changing clothes: "Lord Wang, Gu Yiyi, the daughter of Prime Minister Gu, has been waiting at the door for a long time, do you invite her in?" ”

Baili Muyan didn't have any expression, as if he hadn't heard it, and only after putting on his clothes did he speak: "What is the so-called matter?" ”

"Dedication." The butler bowed his head and replied.

"This king is happy."

"The old slave knows."

What Baili Muyan was most disgusted with was this kind of deliberate flattery, and the housekeeper also understood what he meant, and turned around and went out.

Gu Yiyi was very tired of waiting outside, but because of her perfect image, she could only continue to wait with a smile, but she began to be dissatisfied in her heart, wasn't the Queen Mother very optimistic about her yesterday? Why didn't the prince invite her in to sit and wait?

Seeing the housekeeper come out, Gu Yiyi hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and before she could speak, the housekeeper spoke first.

"Miss Gu, please go back, the prince is not a guest."

"I'm just here to play the piano for the prince, not to find the prince for something." After Gu Yiyi finished speaking, she asked the maid to carry the qin over.

"If everyone who wants to perform music for the prince can get their wish, then there will be no peace in the palace, Miss Gu, please go back." The housekeeper said very tactfully, this is already a face for Prime Minister Gu, and the identity of Prince Mu is what the dignitaries in the capital want to climb.

The prince has been back in Beijing for less than a month, and there are extremely many people who visit him every day, and the reasons are also strange, so as a housekeeper, he has long been accustomed to this kind of scene.

"My father is Prime Minister Gu, and I bothered the steward to help inform him." Gu Yiyi's voice was soft and moving.

"It is precisely because it is Miss Gu that the old slave talks back and forth, if it is someone else, disturbing the peace of the prince, I am afraid that the guards will have to do it a long time ago." The butler bowed and turned to close the door.

Gu Yiyi kept smiling until the door was completely closed, then she showed an angry expression, and when she was walking on the road, the maid opened her mouth and asked, "Miss, where are we going now?" ”

Gu Yiyi directly overturned the food box in her hand, and said with an uneven breath: "Useless thing, didn't you just say that the news of the inquiry is that the prince likes sweets and loves to listen to the stringed piano?" It's all a bunch of rubbish! ”

"Miss, angry." The two maids immediately knelt down and kowtowed.

I waited for almost two hours just now, and I got a sentence that I didn't see, no, this time I came to Qingyun Mountain, she couldn't go home empty-handed like this, even if she had the queen mother's appreciation, it was not enough for her to become a concubine, so she had to do something.

Han Chenyi left Gu Weiwei's courtyard before dawn and didn't entangle with women, this is his style.

Back at the place where he lived, as soon as Han Chenyi picked up the refreshments on the table, he felt the breath of a person, turned around suddenly, and knelt down on one knee after seeing the person clearly.

"What does the master command?"

A man with a bronze mask sat on the Taishi chair and looked at Han Chenyi leisurely: "Recently, several of his subordinates have disappeared in the capital, and the corpses have not yet been found. ”

"Yes, what should I do if I find it?" Han Chenyi lowered his head and asked.

"Silence."

"Yes."

The man got up satisfied, and his white hand rested on Han Chenyi's shoulder: "Han Gongzi's talent, how can a small Guozijian be able to accommodate it?" I hope that Master Han will not live up to my respect for you. ”

"Thank you, master. Chen Yi must not accept the trust. ”

The man nodded and left, Han Chenyi got up and waved his hand to call his subordinates: "Go find out who did it, don't do it yet, the master will go out in person, it must not be a simple matter, so as not to startle the snake." ”

"Yes."

Gu Yiyi held the qin and chose a gazebo to sit down, this is a place where you will pass by when you go up and down the mountain, but it is not the side of the road, it is quiet and not afraid of no one, not to mention that her red sandalwood has a special taste, and it is very simple to attract some princes.

Gu Yiyi had just put down the piano and played a song, when a voice appeared.

"The girl has good piano skills."

Gu Yiyi turned around and met a pair of eyes, but they were casual but sharp, making it impossible to see his heart.

"Childe smiled." Gu Yiyi was sure that he didn't know the person in front of him, but the aura emanating from his body was not an ordinary feeling.

"The girl's piano is also very chic." The man stepped aside, lowered his head and reached out to stroke the piano, "I passed by unintentionally, I didn't expect to hear such a beautiful sound of the piano." ”

"Childe's surname?" Gu Yiyi opened her mouth and asked, she couldn't figure out their identities like last time, and finally missed the opportunity, although it was very important for Prince Mu, but one more choice and one more guarantee.

"Down, Baili Shuo."

Gu Yiyi immediately knelt on the ground after hearing this, oh my God, this is the carefree prince, Baili Shuo? Isn't he in a fiefdom? How did you come to the capital?

"The little woman didn't know that it was Lord Yao, and she disturbed the prince's rest, and the little woman should die."

"This king is just an idle man, so he doesn't bother me." Bai Lishuo reached out and pulled Gu Yiyi up.

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Gu Yiyi got up.

The two chatted about some things again, and Gu Yiyi learned that Bai Li Shuo was invited to the capital to attend the emperor's birthday banquet, the so-called thirty and standing, so the emperor was about to turn thirty, so Bai Li Shuo also came to the capital.

Baili Shuo is the son of Concubine Ming, one year older than Baili Muyan, he was very favored by the emperor at the beginning, and he was also the first person to be crowned king.

Because he did not pose a danger to the throne, although Concubine Ming was favored at the beginning, after the death of the first emperor, Baili Shuo was still safe in front of his prince and was not implicated.

"If the girl is interested, she might as well play another song." Baili Shuo looked at it gently.

Gu Yiyi had a good impression of this Yao Wang Ye in her heart, compared to the saught-after Mu Wang Ye, if she could climb to Yao Wang Ye, she might have a good life, and Yao Wang Ye only married two concubines and did not become a concubine.

"Yiyi will be ugly." Gu Yiyi nodded in agreement, sat down in front of the red sandalwood, and continued to stroke the qin.
