(Book friends who read early yesterday can turn to the previous chapter and read it again, I added 1300 words to the following)

Immediately, he made an even more unexpected move—he actually took off his sable robe and draped it over her shoulders.

"I can only send you here, the night is cold and windy, you take care of yourself."

That gentle and mellow voice sounded in his ears, Xiao Gu blinked, and felt very uncomfortable for the first time.

As if sensing her intently surprised, Yuan Jian couldn't help laughing—the amber eyes flashed with gentle brilliance, giving people a fresh feeling like a spring breeze, but it seemed that the scar at the corner of his eye was not so abrupt and hideous.

The smile slowly converged, turning into a wisp of complex emotions at the corner of his lips - it was a line mixed with nostalgia, emotion and disappointment -

"What is there to be polite between you and me? You're going to wear it. ”

He took the reins of his bridle and turned his horse's head to leave, but stopped where he was, and stared at her half-sideways.

The faint light could only shine a few feet in front of his toes, and his face was soaked in boundless darkness, his expression was blurred and ambiguous, and only a pair of glowing eyes remained, like the only two remaining fires in the Chaos World.

So scorching, yet unspeakably restless...... It seems to be sweeping the entire world, but it seems to be just nostalgic, broken, lonely, and burning itself to the ground.

"Rujun ......"

He whispered, calling out her true name, and breaking the silence of the endless night.

Well?

How could he know the truth?

Xiao Gu's heart beat fast, frowned and was about to ask for an understanding, but saw Yuan Jian suddenly raise her eyebrows and smile, so wanton and lovely, and then she urged the horse to gallop away, leaving only a sentence in the billowing dust and smoke-

"Keep my jade pendant, don't lose it."

What's that...... Jade pendant?

Xiao Gu was stunned and stood still. After a while, he turned around, but he saw Lan Ning's beautiful eyes with a smirking smile-

"I really can't see it, you have such a deep fate with this person, you even accepted the jade pendant."

"What do you take, I don't know him at all!"

"Don't be ashamed, when will the token be exchanged, God doesn't know how fast your hands and feet are!"

"I said that I have nothing to do with him, and I have never seen him before!"

Xiao Gu snorted and walked quickly towards the other courtyard.

****

The night is in the deepest part, and the fourth watch is coming to an end. In the study, there was still a bright light and shadow, and Guangsheng sat quietly in front of the desk, playing with the special ivory letter opener made by Europa, falling into deep thought, and the whole person was motionless.

The light flowed slowly on him like silent water, and his beautiful face was reflected on the edge of the blade, which became more and more cold and intimidating.

The thick eyes slowly closed to recuperate, and the corners of the lips were deep curves. But it shows that he is caught in a difficult problem.

There was a knock on the door of the study twice, who would dare to disturb his official business at this time?

Guangsheng didn't open his eyes, but said lightly: "Come in." ”

A girl who slipped in with a cat. The tray has been in the hand, exuding heat and a strong fragrance in the cold night.

"What's so delicious?"

Guangsheng's voice was still so indifferent, as if he was indifferent, but Xiao Gu could clearly hear the smile hidden in his voice.

"It's mutton soup with flax pancakes."

Two bowls of lamb broth lay flat on a tray, and the cooked lamb shank is thinly sliced and soaked in the soup. Green onions and garlic were placed on top, and a stack of baked cakes was piled up on a large round plate, and the brown particles of flax were evenly sprinkled on the white flour cakes. It has an alluring aroma.

"It's almost dawn, and you should be hungry after a busy night."

Xiao Gu blinked, and she was also salivating - in fact, she had been running back and forth for most of the night, and she was already hungry.

"Let's eat ...... together"

Guangsheng's words came to an abrupt end after seeing the two bowls of mutton soup, and he couldn't help laughing, "It turns out that you have already prepared your own portion!" ”

Xiao Gu gave him a roll of his eyes, but it was so charming and playful that it made his heart sweet, "The young master is willing to let me cook for you hungry?" ”

"Of course I'm reluctant, but I'm even more reluctant to let you come to rub my supper every night and eat a lot to become a chubby girl."

But all women, from ancient times to the present, except for the Tang Dynasty, no one is not afraid of the curse of the word "fat", Xiao Gu suddenly raised his eyebrows and glared at him angrily.

"It's me who is wrong...... You have worked hard, you should make up for it! ”

Guangsheng Dalu smiled and hurriedly raised his hand to forgive, first handed her the soup bowl, sprinkled pepper for her, mixed the old vinegar, and then simply rolled up his sleeves and tore the baked cake into small pieces for her.

Guangsheng first drank a large mouthful of mutton soup, full of sour and spicy and the cooked taste of mutton, which suddenly made the whole body sweat profusely, and his whole body was a lot more comfortable, so he unceremoniously feasted.

The two leaned on a coffee table and ate face to face, and for a while there was only the crisp sound of a spoon in the study.

"Young master, just now I saw something strange in the courtyard, a group of people mysteriously coming and going—is it any special guest?"

Xiao Gu's eyes flashed, as if he didn't care, and asked.

An hour ago, when she returned to the other courtyard, it happened that a large group of people from Jinyiwei carried a sedan chair and entered the front yard silently and quickly.

Ji Gang didn't pass by suddenly, he actually went straight here!

Xiao Gu watched them enter the front yard, and then pulled Lan Ning, who was scared into a cold sweat, back to the bedroom.

She lay on the bed but did not feel sleepy, and simply went to the kitchen to make this hot supper.

At this time, her clear eyes flashed, and she asked frankly, but it did not arouse suspicion.

Sure enough, Guangsheng was slightly stunned, although his smile faded and the awe-inspiring aura around him was stronger, he did not avoid the question.

"That's the Jinyi Guard."

He whispered.

"What, what are they coming for?"

Xiao Gu looked worried and anxious, but Guangsheng chuckled, "Don't worry, they are not here to pick peaches and rob me of my credit." ”

"That's not going to be a good thing!"

Xiao Gu was very unhappy and pursed his lips and complained: "As soon as they came, young master, your face drooped, and even your smile became gloomy and ugly. ”

This girl, how dare you say it!

Completely unaware that she was talking nonsense, Guangsheng scratched her nose with a smile, and said, "You don't understand the things in officialdom." ”

"If the young master doesn't say it, I don't understand how to know it! I see, they just look like they are collecting debts, and they are very annoying! ”

Xiao Gu's seemingly innocent words caused ripples in Guangsheng's heart, he sighed, and couldn't help but think of the scene when Ji Gang suddenly came an hour ago-

Under the demonic scarlet waning moon, the man slowly came out of the ordinary green cloth sedan chair, dressed in a lake blue fine cotton directly covered with a silver mouse robe, still holding a bun at will, with narrow phoenix eyes on his fair face and smiling lazily, but between opening and closing, it was a divine light!

The only thing that has changed is that his face is whiter, and his forehead has three more deep lines than when he first met.

Seeing Guangsheng's stunned and hurried appearance, his smile deepened, and the slight drunkenness between his eyebrows became thicker.

"Why are you staring at me after not seeing me for many days, as if you have seen a ghost?"

Guangsheng reacted at that time, and hurriedly saluted: "My lord is safe and sound, and he is ecstatic and out of shape for a while." ”

Ji Gang sneered and laughed, looking Guangsheng up and down, "Do you really think that kind of premeditated explosion can take my life?" ”

"The subordinates don't dare to underestimate the adults, but the corpse at the scene made the Jinyi guards who came to help disheartened, so the subordinates were not willing to be too aggressive, and would rather stay in the suburbs of Beijing to wait for their lives."

"Really? It's not your style to play so steadily? When did the noisy worries of those brocade guards and little flags be taken to heart by you again? ”

Ji Gang's smile turned cold, and his gaze staring at Guangsheng was like substance, as if he wanted to see through the deepest part of his internal organs, "I haven't seen you for a few months, and you are good at opening your eyes and telling nonsense - the reason why you acted conservatively and did not rush forward is because all the key evidence has been lost, and I am afraid that this case will not be settled!" ”

At that time, Guangsheng's heart thumped, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, but he still stood upright, his demeanor was calm and calm, and he met Ji Gang without dodging, "My lord is like a god, and my subordinates have nothing to say - as long as there is a trace of clues, we must recover those gold and weapons and armor!" ”

"Oh? What do you have to rely on? Is it my value, is it your Shen family's tattered title? Or is it your great future for both civil and military affairs?! ”

Ji Gang's question was straightforward, almost cold and vicious, "If you can't find something to trade on both sides, everything will be wiped out, and none of them can be relied on - your little life will be lost in an instant." ”

He suddenly strode forward and came to Guangsheng's side, his shining eyes were like a spirit snake spitting out a letter, approaching, "Luo Zhan colluded with foreign enemies to sell weapons privately, I have long known about this - you came here to find out real evidence, but now you want to tell me that you are empty-handed and are continuing to investigate?!" ”

Such sharp and merciless words, like a raging storm, Ji Gang's invisible and ruthless aura enveloped the entire study, and even the other horsemen who were waiting under the porch of the door turned pale with fright, and they did not dare to breathe loudly.

The light in Guangsheng's eyes became brighter, but he still did not show the slightest fear or embarrassment, "I am willing to make a military order, and the deadline-"

His words were interrupted by Ji Gang's cold laughter, "You, you're still too tender!" ”

Facing Guangsheng's slightly surprised gaze, he said casually: "Remember what I said to you when we first met?" ”

"Our Jinyi Guard's people are out of the horse, don't you fake without evidence? What kind of crime is the black pot just put on someone else's head, who can refute it, and who dares to refute it - you forgot about my words in a blink of an eye, and wasted days in vain, just to find what evidence?! It's stupid! ”

As if echoing his arrogance and demonism, the night wind whistled in, and several bright lights in the study were blown out one after another, and in the darkness, only Ji Gang's eyes were shining like stars in the sky-

That is the most subtle compassion, and the most evil killing!

"Now, do you understand where the evidence is?" (To be continued......)
