Chapter 183: The Old Man

"Thank you Concubine for your love, Ah Qing is flattered, Ah Qing may have opened a small pavilion on a whim, but Nanfeng Pavilion is now on the right path, and it is difficult to give up now." Yuan Qing said very modestly.

Dare to love is afraid of ruining your reputation?

"Ah Qing, the concubine didn't say that she disliked you." Gu Yijing was a little anxious.

"The concubine is serious, things like marrying into the palace, no matter how you say it, Ah Qing is Gao Pan, Ah Qing knows that he doesn't have this kind of blessing, and he doesn't dare to think about it." Yuan Qing bowed his head and said with a light smile. It is right to dislike her, but whether she marries into the palace or not is another matter.

Gu Yijing listened to Yuan Qing's speech, why did she always feel that she was avoiding the important and light, and she didn't leak?

This girl's mind is really meticulous......

"Ah Qing, since this Nanfeng Pavilion, if you want to open it, just open it." Gu Yijing didn't know what to say, so she took a sip of tea and threw out the sentence.

"Thank you, concubine, for making it happen." Yuan Qing bowed again.

The two sat opposite each other and were silent for a long time, when there was a knock at the door.

Yuan Qing looked at the concubine, and then said, "Come in." ”

The door was pushed open, and a man walked in, he was wearing a dark robe with a slender figure, his eyebrows were quite handsome, but his face was full of wind and frost, revealing a mature temperament, he was the first batch of young men recruited by Nanfeng Pavilion, a mature male uncle - Qin Jiuluan.

Yuan Qing saw him walk in, greeted him with his eyes, and smiled at Gu Yijing with low eyes, "Concubine, you can sit here now, I'll go over there to deal with some things, and come over." ”

Qin Jiuluan came to call Yuan Qing. Naturally, there were some things, he didn't go into the house, just leaned against the door. Waiting for Yuan Qing.

Gu Yijing subconsciously looked back, and at this glance, she was a little stunned, this person is not ...... She knew him, for a long time.

"Wait......" Gu Yijing saw that the back of her acquaintance was about to leave, and she hurriedly spoke.

"Oh, what's the matter with the concubine?" Yuan Qing felt puzzled. Looking back at Gu Yijing, he said.

Qin Jiuluan also looked back at her, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes, but he calmed down after a while. He just stood quietly by the door, looking at the people sitting in front of him from afar, looking back at him.

"Don't you know me?" Gu Yijing looked at Qin Jiuluan and saw his vicissitudes of life and calm face. A faint pain in my heart for no reason.

Did they know each other before? Yuan Qing thought so in his mind. Looking back at Qin Jiuluan's face again, he saw that he still said flatly: "I don't know." ”

"I'm Yijing, Gu Yijing." The concubine reported her name and said, no matter how she said that, she was also a noble concubine, if she really didn't know the man in front of her, she wouldn't casually say her name, which seemed very rude.

"I'm sorry, I don't know you." Qin Jiuluan was still unmoved. Just as he was about to step out, a woman's voice shouted behind him: "Qin Zelin." Do you really not know me anymore? ”

"You've mistaken someone." Qin Jiuluan didn't look back, and the light voice came into the ears of Gu Yijing, who had been looking forward for a long time, through the gap in the door, so decisive.

"Concubine, the person you just called, his name is Qin Jiuluan, not Qin Zelin." Yuan Qing hadn't left yet, she looked back at Gu Yijing and said.

"Qin Jiuluan? Hehe, he really refuses to recognize me? Gu Yijing smiled bitterly, "Even the name has been changed." ”

Yuan Qing didn't know what happened between them, but judging from the attitude of the concubine who was so eager to get to know Qin Jiuluan just now, their previous relationship should not be shallow.

"Concubine, you sit down for a while, I'll come when I go." After speaking, Yuan Qing turned around and closed the door.

Qin Jiuluan was called here by ** Chen Zhongyu to call Yuan Qing to go to the account room, take a look at the account book, or discuss the affairs of Nanfeng Pavilion, it didn't take a while, the matter was done, Yuan Qing didn't make any stops, and hurried back to the private room, after all, the concubine was still in the private room, and she couldn't be lazy.

"Concubine," Yuan Qing bowed quietly to Gu Yijing, who was seated.

"Sit down." Gu Yijing drank tea alone, raised her hand, and motioned for her to sit.

Yuan Qing sat down, and after a long time, she spoke: "Did the concubine recognize Uncle Qin by mistake just now?" Yuan Qing still called Uncle Qin Jiuluan, after all, his temperament is really like an uncle.

"I'm not mistaken, even if he turns to ashes, I'll recognize him." Gu Yi replied calmly.

No way? What was the relationship between these two people before? Can you recognize it when it turns to ashes? Just now, why did Qin Jiuluan behave so indifferently, he has always been indifferent, indifferent to the vicissitudes of life, it's just that Gu Yijing said that she recognized him, didn't he feel it at all?

Or is he deliberately running away?

Could it be that Uncle Qin owes the concubine a lot of money and has not paid it back? Yuan Qing thought with a bad taste in his mind. If this is the case, it is reasonable for Uncle Qin to refuse to recognize the concubine.

"Ah Qing, just now you said that his name is Qin Jiuluan, did he tell you this name when he first met you?" Gu Yijing said.

"Yes, when he came to Nanfeng Pavilion to apply for a job, he told me this name." Yuan Qingdao.

"He's a little guy here?" Gu Yijing was stunned for a moment, she couldn't believe it at all, how could someone who had always been proud would be willing to come here to be a little girl?

"Yes, I can't figure it out, a person like Uncle Qin, calm, silent, no matter how you look at it, he is not the kind of person who will sell his dignity for money." Yuan Qing is in line with the Tao. Indeed, if a man becomes a thief, then his dignity can be regarded as the end.

"He must have encountered something he couldn't get over, Ah Qing, these days, has he mentioned to you what he can't get over?" Gu Yijing seemed to care about him.

"This ...... Concubine, uncle, he has always talked little, and I don't know him too well, so he didn't mention these things to me. Yuan Qing explained with a light smile.

"It's ...... too" Gu Yijing nodded slightly, as if she was contemplative, "Later, I will ask him in person." ”

"Concubine, Ah Qing dared to ask, are you old friends with his uncle?" Yuan Qingdao.

"Yes, before I married into the palace, I was with him...... I'm almost married. Speaking of this, Gu Yijing lowered her head, and two lines of tears slipped unconsciously, wetting Allure's eyes.

Oh, so that's the case, no wonder, the concubine cares so much about him. Yuan Qing nodded knowingly, and comforted her: "Concubine, don't be sad, the matter has passed, let it pass." ”

The past is unbearable, in the final analysis, it is still this hateful imperial society, tearing apart people and lovers.

At that time, the first emperor fell in love with Gu Yijing, and then forced her to marry, but she refused, so he continued to force her with the regulations of disobeying the holy decree to destroy the nine clans, she couldn't, she could only marry, if she didn't marry, then the Gu family might have all the heads on the ground.
