Volume 1 Dongchang Yan (Sweet Pet) Chapter 37 Please Enter the Urn (1)
Xijingmen, Langtian Laneββ
A horse-drawn carriage was parked on the street corner opposite the Admiral's Mansion in the West Detective Factory. The curtain of the carriage was raised, and Sun Bing, a factory servant of the East Factory, jumped out of the car, put the stool on the ground, and then helped Gu Yunxi in the carriage down.
Looking at the Admiral's Mansion opposite, Gu Yunxi's expression couldn't help but be a little surprised.
The Sifang Mansion of Zhumen High Ridge is really luxurious and magnificent. She had never been to her lord's mansion so far, and she didn't know what the momentum was there, but at least the mansion in front of her was no less magnificent than the tribute courtyard where she had lived before.
After setting up Gu Yunxi, Sun Bing walked through the wide street on his own and walked to the front of the Admiral's Mansion on the opposite side to report.
The man's personality is always honest. On the way here, even if he was in the same carriage with Gu Yunxi, he didn't say a word to her, and the particularly cold and embarrassing atmosphere in the carriage made her feel awkward for a while.
Gu Yunxi stood in the dark shadow of the carriage refracted by the sunlight, watching the crowd of people coming and going on the street.
There are men and women, carrying baskets, bald people wearing hats, all kinds of colors, if you can distinguish them with her eyes, it is really difficult to recognize which ones are the Qiao makeup of Dongchang Fanwei for a while.
Looking around, she couldn't find the shadow of her overseer. Thinking that after coming out of the East Factory, he took the first step to separate from her, and now he doesn't know where he is staring at this side.
Suddenly, Gu Yunxi felt that he was staying in an unfamiliar environment, his body suddenly stiffened, and his whole body felt slightly cold.
Calm, calm! Laugh, laugh! ββ
Remembering the repeated instructions to her before the overseer left, Gu Yunxi secretly warned herself to be calm.
The overseer of his own house will never deceive himself, he will come, he will come! Perhaps, right now, he's watching from an inconspicuous corner.
Gu Yunxi thinks that he has been taken care of by the Overseer for a long time, and now it is the best opportunity to perform well and repay him-
Not long after Sun Bing reported his return, he saw the wide vermilion gate on the opposite side open, and Minglan, who was dressed in civilian clothes, strode out surrounded by two or three little eunuchs.
When he walked to the middle of the street and saw Gu Yunxi in women's clothes, Minglan was stunned. Seeing that she was tilting her head and smiling sweetly, he hurriedly lifted the hem of his clothes and rushed over in three steps and two steps.
Standing in front of Gu Yunxi, Minglan didn't speak, raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes lingered up and down Gu Yunxi's body repeatedly, suspicious and blazing, and gradually gathered into a cluster of intense light bursting out of his eyes.
Suspicion is the motive for not being able to see through her dress for a while. Blazing, just because she was too beautiful at this moment, he couldn't help but start to feel strong jealousy, he hated how could the Admiral of Dongchang be so glamorous!
The eyes of the little eunuchs behind him widened unexpectedly. Qin Zhong had seen Gu Yunxi more than once, but now she suddenly changed her outfit, and she was like a delicate flower, which made people feel itchy.
ββ¦β¦ You're a girl......"
After looking at each other for a short time, Minglan stared at Gu Yunxi and took the lead in speaking, and the feminine voice made Gu Yunxi's body tighten, which was extremely unhappy.
The petal face was always staring with an intoxicating smile, and after floating into a thousand blessings, she said softly:
"Lord Ming, Yun Guan'er is on the order of the family teacher today, and specially sent an altar of aged wine 'Luhuabai' to thank the Lord of Ming for sending gifts during the Double Ninth Festival."
As soon as the words fell, Sun Bing, who was beside her, immediately offered a jar of wine.
exchanging wine for wine, there is nothing more beside it, how much does this Dongchang Admiral not want to see Minglan!
With Leng Qingtang's understanding of people like Minglan, once something is seen through by him, he must no longer be able to hide it, any cover-up will only make him more rampant and more difficult. It's better to take a step back first, and then hit him with a stick, telling him not to dare to make small movements behind his back.
Minglan glanced to the side, and Qin Zhong hugged the wine jar over.
Gu Yunxi smiled, charming and charming: "In addition, there is also a box of Xuanhua Crisp I made myself to present to Lord Mingdu." β
Gu Yunxi picked up a food box from the wheel of the car and handed it to Minglan: "This is a little bit of my personal heart, and I hope that Lord Ming will accept it with a smile." β
"You did it? Would you do these? β
Minglan held the wooden handle of the food box in one hand and opened the lid of the box with the other. There are indeed two rows of square white icing pastries.
Gu Yunxi smiled lightly:
"When I first met Lord Mingdu, you asked Yun Guan'er what he would do when he went to Dongchang, Yun Guan'er was ashamed of himself and couldn't answer, in fact, I would...... It's nothing more than these kitchen jobs. The tutor's three meals a day are all taken care of by me. β
"Huh...... Blessed is Lord Leng Duke......"
Minglan sneered unnaturally, squeezing out from between his teeth word by word, and his expression was not relaxed.
Indeed, there are Yanfu, and there are oral, grandma's-
Handing over the food box to his subordinates, Minglan's palm clenched into a fist in the sleeve of his robe, and his eyes turned and fell all over Gu Yunxi's body.
The aqua blue floor-length skirt is lined with a slender and slender figure, the forehead is smooth, the willow eyebrows are exquisite, a pair of brown eyes shine with a smart and bright brilliance, and the lightly pursed cherry lips are like the pink petals of peach blossoms.
When Fanwei was dressed up, she was handsome, which made him think too much. Now Sheng Ran women's clothes also wear the earrings he gave. Between her conversation with him, the chrysanthemum beads on the earrings swayed in front of Minglan's eyes, swaying, and his whole person was fluttering.
This little thing is really beautiful, so groomed, it's really different from the fan guard at that time......
Seeing that Minglan and the people he brought were all staring at her with straight eyebrows, and with coveted evil thoughts in their eyes, Gu Yunxi was secretly annoyed.
Why are the eunuchs of the West Factory more lustful than normal men? But he promised the overseer, and he would definitely smile at Minglan and laugh from beginning to end.
So she smiled warmly and blessed Minglan again, and her voice was tactful:
"Now that the thank you gift has been sent to the Lord of the Ming Governor, Yun Guan'er has retired, may the Lord be blessed for a long time."
"Wait!" Minglan stretched out his hand to stop Gu Yunxi: "This governor hasn't let you go yet, what are you anxious about?" β
Gu Yunxi was not flustered in her heart, knowing that Minglan would not let her go so easily.
Not long ago, she deliberately dragged him off the carriage and soiled his new and beautiful Admiral's hat, and he must still be holding a grudge until now!
"Lord Mingdu, what do you want to do?"
Gu Yunxi raised his head to look at him, his eyes were brave and firm, his crystal lips were easily hooked, and his smile was not reduced by half.
"Do you owe Ben an answer to this day, and still refuse to tell the truth?"
Minglan's eyes were dead on Gu Yunxi's face, his gaze was sharp and cold, and his bewitching facial features became a little hideous because of the expression that seemed to be smiling.
He approached her step by step.
Sun Bing was about to rush over the moment he saw Gu Yunxi being forced to stick to the carriage with his back, and surrounded the little eunuchs with the coachman.
"Lord Mingdu, what the hell do you want to do!" The scene was a little uncontrollable, and Gu Yunxi couldn't help but scream.
Minglan grabbed one of her wrists hard and laughed:
"Ben Governor wants to ask you again! Xiaoyun Guan'er, what do you want to do? Don't play with Bento, tell the truth sooner! Otherwise, believe it or not, the Governor will pull you into the Admiral's Mansion right now and torture you......"
The other hand hooked the orchid finger and scratched Gu Yunxi's chin playfully.
She felt sick. I wonder if my own overseer is watching this scene with his own eyes?
No, he must not be disgraced, and the task must be completed.
"The last time Lord Ming went to Dongchang to visit the tutor, it was Yun Guan'er who said nothing, and then he was reprimanded by the tutor. When Chongyang Mengming gave a heavy gift, Yun Guan'er came to express his gratitude to the overseer in person, is it wrong? β
After finishing speaking, she looked pitiful and innocent, and the water in her eyes was flying, as if she was about to cry out of grievance.
"Lord Mingdu, you hurt me......"
Minglan's whole body was shocked, and his expression was in a trance.
Look left and right, where are the few little eunuchs still caring about Sun Bing and the coachman, they are all looking directly at Gu Yunxi who is begging and struggling under the authority of the overseer, and some of them are full of sympathy.
Minglan coughed twice, and the little eunuchs hurriedly came back to their senses and stood up straight.
As soon as his hand was loosened, Gu Yunxi escaped from Minglan's confinement and stroked his wrist painfully.
Minglan stared at her and continued to ask, "Does Grandpa Leng know that you came to me?" β
"Of course I know, otherwise where did Yun Guan'er get the reed white? This wine has only been produced in 30 years, which is older than my master's age, so it is naturally a thank you gift from him to Lord Mingdu! If you don't let me go, Master, he's going to be in a hurry! β
Gu Yunxi lowered his head and rubbed his wrists, replied without raising his head, and his little expression was very aggrieved.
Minglan laughed a few times unconsciously:
"Well, you answered Bento's question, and Benduke will let you go back immediately."
"What is the Lord of the Ming Governor asking again?"
"Who the hell are you? What is it called? β
What a question!
Gu Yunxi smiled lightly, the pear nest was shallow, so untouchable.
"Lord Ming has never drunk, why did people faint first? My name is Yun Guan'er, and I am naturally the apprentice of the commander of Dongchang, didn't the master already tell you when you went to Dongchang? Why are you asking me again? β
Minglan raised his eyebrows, and his bewitching lips hooked up a strange smile.
"Don't pretend to be garlic with Bento! Why did your master hide your female disguise as a man in the East Factory? When Ben Du asked at the beginning, why did he lie to Ben Du that you were a little eunuch?!
At the same time of questioning, two fine lights burst out from Minglan's eyes, a few inches forward, and his body was completely attached to Gu Yunxi's body, rubbing lightly.
The panicked expression was fleeting on Gu Yunxi's delicate face.
Father-in-law Ming, you jumped into the pit by yourself!
"I want to know, tonight in the northern suburbs of Qingfeng Temple, I will tell you the answer in person, how about it?"
Holding back the strong hatred in his heart, Gu Yunxi finished speaking with a very relaxed expression, looking up at Minglan with a smile, his cherry lips curled slightly, overflowing with a bit of provocation.
Fortunately, Minglan did not change her bold nature, so she found an opportunity in time-
"Overseer......"
"Don't listen to her!"
The little eunuchs behind Minglan heard the clue and reminded the overseer not to be easily fooled.
The aggressive and boastful look gradually solidified on the bewitching face.
"Little thing, you want to play with Bento's eyes again? Just say it here, don't make it clear that you don't want to go back! β
"What is Lord Ming afraid of?" She asked rhetorically and smiled, her eyes slightly mocking.
"Presumptuousβ" Minglan was completely enraged by her, and his voice was shrill and glaring.
Seeing that her expression was somewhat restrained, and her anger was reduced by half, he smiled and asked, "Tell me, what is Bendu afraid of?" β
"There have always been rumors of haunting in this Qingfeng Temple, and Yun Guan'er has been very curious for a long time and wants to go over to find out. If the Lord of the Ming Governor is unwilling to go with me, is he afraid of encountering ghosts? β
His eyes turned, and Gu Yunxi came up with a great way to provoke him.
"Joke! This governor worships the second grade, is a dignified governor of the West Factory, and has never believed in any ghosts and gods! Even if there is a ghost, it is afraid of Bento! β
"That's good! Then come with me tonight! Gu Yunxi raised his head again, smiling treacherously.
Minglan didn't answer immediately, his eyes fell on Gu Yunxi's flower-like face, and he didn't move. After staring for a moment, he suddenly lowered his head, his lips pressed to her ear, and his watery and soft voice was low to the limit:
"Ben Governor went on time tonight, and you told me everything about you, and then quietly followed Ben Doge. Yun Guan'er, this governor likes you......"
The hot breath that kept exhaling sprayed on Gu Yunxi's ears, making half of her face itch.
Shocked to hear this, she leaned over and flashed to the side, not forgetting to smile at Minglan.
"Lord Mingdu, you go to the appointment first and then talk later! See you and me at Seifuji Temple tonight! β
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Minglan raised his eyebrows wickedly, and then waved to the little eunuchs:
"Let them go! Let's go home! β
