Gu Qing couldn't tell how important Huangfu Sisi was to him, in the eyes of outsiders, what he valued was only Huangfu Sisi's cooking skills, nothing more.

Even Gu Qing himself felt that she didn't seem to be important, his definition of her was a cook, and he was just a diner.

Diners can appreciate and praise the cook's craftsmanship, this dish is well done, and that dish is delicious.

But diners don't care what kind of person the chef makes this dish is, and what kind of sad past he has.

People who like to eat eggs probably won't pity the mental journey that the egg-laying hen has gone through.

Since when did Huangfu Sisi become more than just a cook in Gu Qing's heart?

Perhaps, it was when he gritted his teeth and lent himself a hundred taels of silver cakes when he was poor, or maybe he accidentally saw her being beaten to the ground by a guest, and when she was embarrassed, she still did not forget to comb her hair, covering her ears and stealing bells to maintain the most basic dignity of a woman, and forcing herself to show a strong smile no matter how much she wanted to cry......

Gu Qing had to admit that from that time on, Huangfu Sisi was no longer just a cook who cooked delicious food, she should be her friend, and she could rest assured that she would hand over her back and not worry about her stabbing herself from behind.

Such friends are hard to find, and some people have never met them in their lives.

Since it is not easy to find such a friend, then she should be cherished, and she cannot disappear from his life without warning.

It's not that she's not allowed to disappear, it's just that he needs a reason to disappear.

"All the bad handsome, bad people, and errand soldiers in the festival mansion have been mobilized, and the poor and the poor will find her in the Yellow Spring! Fifty guards were also scattered all over the city to find out about her, and no trace of her should be missed! ”

Gu Qing gave a strong order, staring at the bad handsome's cramped and restless eyes, Gu Qing slowly raised three fingers, and said: "Three days, give you three days, find someone in three days, live to see people, dead to see corpses, if you can't find it, you will also become a missing person." ”

Bad Shuai trembled, his lips twitched a few times, and he wanted to ask Gu Qing for a few more days, but seeing the non-negotiable expression on Gu Qing's face, Bad Shuai had no choice but to shut up with a bitter expression.

In this Qiuzi city, there are too many rumors about this festival envoy, the people and businessmen are all praised, some are true rumors, some are false, the more outrageous they are, and finally the Gu Hou Ye in people's mouths has almost become the stars in the sky, and all kinds of deeds have been beautified into myths.

Among the many rumors, the most real is Gu Houye's character.

The killing is decisive, the sex is as fierce as fire, and the words must be done.

Gu Houye said that he was limited to three days to find someone, so he had to try his best to find someone within three days, otherwise he had no doubt that he would really become a missing person, and he would disappear forever without knowing it.

Wang Gui was soon called to the inn from the camp by the guards, and stood in front of Gu Qing with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

This guy always looks improper, even his standing posture is loose and sloppy, and he has a bit of cynicism, which is still a lot more restrained in front of Gu Qing, it is said that he is simply a bastard image in front of the robes, proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.

At the beginning, Gu Qing gave him half of the reward money, he sent half of it home, and the remaining half was kept for his own spending, and in less than half a month, more than 20 yuan of money was spent, all of which was used for eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, so angry that Han Jie chased him in the camp and beat him, scolding him for being an unfilial son.

Gu Qing looked at him with a smile, looked at him a few times, and said, "Is the injury healed?" ”

Wang Gui said with a smile: "It's already good, if the Hou Ye sends the villain into battle and then fights the Tubo thief, the villain can still kill seven back and forth." ”

Gu Qing smiled: "It's not so dangerous, I'll send you an easy job this time...... I heard that you spent all the bounty money you were given last time? ”

Wang Guixin said timidly: "Master Hou, money is really unspent, the villain just drank a few flower wine in the Qinglou in the city, and played with the robes a few times, and it was inexplicably gone......."

Gu Qing sighed: "Han Jie said that you are not a filial son, then it is not enough, at least you sent half of it home to support your parents, but you must be a loser, how much money you give you is not enough to spend, Wang Gui, you are really the wrong child, you should be born in a rich and noble family, and be a child who has nothing to do." ”

Wang Gui said with a smile: "Borrowing Hou Ye's auspicious words, the villain must work hard in the next life and strive to have a good baby." ”

"Okay, you do a good job on this errand, I will give you another twenty times to reward you for a good job, the errand is to help me find someone, the female shopkeeper of the inn is missing, you find her for me as soon as possible."

Wang Gui was taken aback: "The female shopkeeper is missing?" Oh, it's a pity, that woman was born with a beautiful face, and she didn't warm the bed for Hou Ye to sleep and disappeared, it's a pity that it's a pity ......"

Seeing Gu Qing's face suddenly cold, Wang Gui hurriedly apologized: "The villain lost his words, Hou Ye is not to blame." Speaking of which, the female shopkeeper also has some friendship with a few of our relatives, and she helped to set up the information of the Tubo Army, and the villain will definitely do his best to find her. ”

Gu Qing waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, you do things safely, I can be trusted, that's why I transferred you to handle this matter, fifty personal guards will be handed over to you to arrange, and you will search the whole city to find out her whereabouts......"

After a pause, Gu Qing said slowly in an aggravated tone: "She...... It's important to me. ”

Wang Gui bowed and saluted: "The villain understands, he will find her out and warm the bed for the Hou Ye." ”

Gu Qing was so angry that he wanted to smoke him, this guy couldn't forget about warming the bed, it seemed that what Han Jie said was true, he was actually a bastard.

…………

A day later, things still haven't changed.

The bad marshal mobilized all the bad people and messengers in the festival to find out the news of Huangfu Sisi, first asking the guys in the inn one by one, ruling out the possibility of acquaintances committing crimes or seeking revenge, and then scattered the whole city to look for witnesses and those who could provide clues, and after checking for a whole day, there was no gain, as if she had disappeared out of thin air, and no one knew her trace.

Wang Gui also led his guards to the whole city, found the houses from the bazaar, and asked people when they saw them, but still did not find any valuable clues.

When the news was reported to Gu Qing, Gu Qing's expression became more and more solemn and worried.

Did this goblin-like woman run away with someone else? …… Got another dog out there?

It doesn't matter if the person runs away, the secret recipe for cooking is not left, which is excessive.

"All the guards are scattered, and the whole city is searching!" Gu Qing was a little out of order.

The atmosphere in Qiuzi City has become tense again in the past few days.

Gu Hou Ye didn't know what was crazy, not only did the bad marshals of the government lead the servants to inquire about a woman's whereabouts viciously, but even the guards around Hou Ye also put on armor and entered the city, looking for traces of that woman in various places such as markets and houses.

Countless curious people and merchants were talking, speculating about what kind of woman could make the lord of Anxi so nervous, even at the cost of disturbing the whole city to find her whereabouts.

The young unmarried woman in the city was full of longing, imagining that she was the woman who made Hou Ye nervous, if she could be searched for by Hou Ye with such fanfare in this life, even if it was only once, she would have no regrets in this life.

The merchants are secretly worried, the last time there was an accident in Qiuzi City, a marksman shot a merchant to death in the market, they were afraid that this time another enemy had mixed into the city, the woman Hou Ye was looking for may have nothing to do with the relationship between men and women, they were searching for the enemy, after all, I have never heard of a high-ranking person would make such a big fight for a woman, there must be an unknown inside story behind this matter.

No one knew that Gu Houye's search for this woman was not such a complicated reason at all.

Simply because, this woman is his friend.

The wind in Qiuzi City is loud, and there are even more people in the palace who are panicking.

Bian Lingcheng sat in the room with cold hands and feet, and any movement outside would make him nervous.

He drank from the cup with a pale face, and his trembling hands couldn't hold the cup, and the hot water splashed a lot and spilled on the placket of his clothes.

Bian Lingcheng didn't expect Huangfu Sisi to be so important in Gu Qing's heart, so important that he didn't hesitate to make the city restless, and his wolf-like guards were like a wild bull out of control, recklessly ramming and trampling in the city.

Today's Qiuzi City is like a boiling oil pot, and any drop of water can make the oil pot fry.

What a miscalculation!

Huangfu Sisi is just a businesswoman who runs an inn, and she hasn't heard that Gu Qing values this woman very much, why is it that as soon as she disappears, the Hou Ye is like an evil all over the city to search for her?

Could it be that Gu Qing really has a love for her? But...... It's just a businesswoman, with such a humble identity, is it possible that you still want to marry her home? The dignified marquis, the princes in charge of the military power, marrying a merchant woman and going home, even if it is just a concubine, is it shameful enough, don't you feel cold?

If you want to marry at least the daughter of the prince of the county with such an identity, it is not too much to even ask the Son of Heaven to marry a princess, how can you fall in love with a businesswoman? It shouldn't be!

Because he misjudged the importance of Huangfu Sisi to Gu Qing, Bian Lingcheng found that the situation was out of control, and a strong sense of crisis enveloped his heart, and he found that he was in trouble.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and Bian Lingcheng trembled, looked at the closed door in horror, and said in a trembling voice: "Who?" ”

The voice of the attendant came from outside: "...... the prison army"

"Come in." Bian Lingcheng tried to make his expression look natural.

The attendant entered the door, and the horror in his eyes was the same as that of Bian Lingcheng.

"Prison army, Gu Qing's personal guards are running rampant in the city, always searching for the whereabouts of that woman, and they look like they will not give up, we are afraid that we will get into trouble." The attendant said in trepidation.

Bian Lingcheng's face turned a little pale, and he lowered his voice and said, "Is Huangfu Sisi still locked up in the Jiefu?" ”

"The villain saw that the city was strictly investigated yesterday, and he was afraid that things would change, so he took the initiative to change her place and detain her, and there was an abandoned firewood house in the north corner of the backyard of the festival house, and no one passed by on weekdays, and the villain locked her there."

Bian Lingcheng nodded and said, "Good life waiting for water, Mo ...... Don't treat her slowly, let alone beat her, leave us a way back, Gu Qing values her so much, if we hurt her, I'm afraid Gu Qing won't let me go. ”
