Chapter 138: Safe and sound
Earlier, he had sent someone to inquire about her situation, and learned that Zhou Xun was running around all day long, and he had no time to take care of her, coupled with Ouyang Qian's company, Qin Boyong even felt that Gu Muzhi was not by his side and was a lot cleaner, but as time passed, the things at hand were gradually finished, and he always felt lonely when he returned to the house, as if there was not one Gu Muzhi missing, but tens of thousands of people.
"Lord Wang, are you back? Nothing, right? "Since Qin Boyong was brought into the palace, the housekeeper has been pacing back and forth at the door, pacing restlessly, and has been silently praying for him in his heart, hoping that he will return safely. When he saw Qin Boyong's figure appear on the street, he immediately greeted him.
Fortunately, the prince's face was not the same, but he just looked a little tired.
"It's okay, let's go back."
Qin Boyong and the housekeeper walked towards the mansion one after the other, the housekeeper looked at Qin Boyong's back, and was wondering why the prince came back on foot, and he was careless and ran straight into Qin Boyong's back.
After all, he is old, and Qin Boyong is a person who practices martial arts, so his body is naturally stronger than ordinary people, so he directly hit the housekeeper and covered his forehead in pain.
"Lord Wang, how are you..." The butler raised his head dissatisfiedly and was about to complain, but saw that the prince was holding a pigeon in one hand and a note in the other, with a smile on his face.
"Is there anything to eat in the kitchen? Is this king hungry? ”
The housekeeper has been working in the Qin Mansion for many years, and he has never seen the prince smile so happily, he was stunned for a while, I don't know why the prince suddenly changed his face, and when he came back to his senses, Qin Boyong had already strode towards the kitchen, and his curiosity also drove the housekeeper to follow cautiously regardless of the pain in his forehead.
Qin Boyong received Ouyang Qian's flying pigeon message, and knew that Gu Muzhi's body was fine, so he was relieved a lot, and the worries about her for so many days could be put aside for the time being, and his mood improved unconsciously.
Unprecedentedly, after Qin Boyong had a full meal in the kitchen, he went to sit in the study alone, but he didn't do anything, none of the maids waiting on the side dared to come forward to ask, they just stood far away, seeing that it was getting late, Xiaoliu's figure finally appeared in Qin's mansion.
Xiao Liu was out for a whole day today, first went to the outside of the city to take Wang Da's family to the palace, and finally escorted them home safely, and then found a secret guard to guard nearby, but before he had time to take a breath, he received an order from the prince to immediately go to the mother clan to inquire about Gu Muzhi's situation.
"The king... Rajah. I am back. Xiao Liu stood at the door, holding the door frame with both hands, panting uncontrollably.
When he looked up and saw that the prince was looking at him, his eyes were still shining, Xiao Liu knew that Qin Boyong was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to rest for a while, so he told Qin Boyong about the situation he had found out about Gu Muzhidi.
After knowing that Gu Muzhi not only broke away from Zhou Xun's control, but also established his own sect in his mother's clan and openly fought against Zhou Xun, Qin Boyong was still a little worried. But thinking about Gu Muzhi's behavior before, compared to now, he suspected that Gu Muzhi had recovered his memory, and many things were very different from what he did before.
Sure enough, Qin Boyong's guess was indeed true.
News came from the palace that the prince already knew that the person who killed the emperor was Zhou Xun, and immediately sent people to strengthen the vigilance in the capital, not allowing any mother clan and people related to the mother clan to step into the capital for half a step.
and openly announced that the court and the mother family will be inseparable from now on, and they will also send someone to arrest Zhou Xun, and this matter will not end easily.
When he learned the news, Zhou Xunzheng listened to Xiao An say that Gu Muzhi had become a private sect with the help of Li Yan, and he felt that he was very angry, and now that he had infiltrated the palace to kill the emperor, he felt even more irritable.
Zhou Xun wanted to find a way to dispel the depression in his heart, thought about it, and immediately took a team of people to Li Yan's residence in person.
Since Gu Muzhi cooperated with Li Yan, he lived directly in Li Yan's mansion, and he was not afraid of other people's gossip, Gu Muzhi had always disliked the people of his mother clan, so he was even more reluctant to pay attention to their gossip.
"Childe, I have already found out, only Gu Muzhi is alone in the courtyard at the moment, and Li Yan went out early in the morning to win people's hearts."
Zhou Xun nodded, waved his hand at the person behind him, and after a while, two people came up, holding two slender tube-like things in their hands.
"Go ahead."
With Zhou Xun's order, the two of them immediately flexibly climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard under the gaze of everyone. In less than a quarter of an hour, a whistle was heard in the courtyard, indicating that the task was completed.
"Childe, wouldn't it be good for us to do this? If we let those people know, they will think we are despicable. Looking at Zhou Xun's subordinates who came in to find someone, Xiao An was on the side, with hesitation in his eyes.
"So what? She was the one who did me first. Zhou Xun's eyes tightened, if Gu Muzhi was obedient and obediently didn't do these things, would he let himself take her back so much?
sent someone to smuggle Gu Muzhi back to his mansion and locked him up in a secret place that only he knew. Thinking that he finally had a bargaining chip in his hand that could threaten Qin Boyong, Zhou Xuncai temporarily put aside the unhappiness in his heart these days, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Qin Boyong, you have ruined my good deeds, I naturally can't let you go so easily." Seeing that Gu Muzhi, who was fascinated by the smoke of ecstasy, was lying on the ground at the moment, without the slightest intention of waking up, Zhou Xun slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and after a long time, he finally left, sealing the exit tightly from the outside, leaving Gu Muzhi alone in the dark.
Because of Gu Muzhi's suggestion, Li Yan decided to find Qin Ming, this person is a powerful person in the maternal family, Gu Muzhi has seen a long time ago that he does not want to be in the same faction as Zhou Xun, but he is only good at hiding his scheming, and he is used by Zhou Xun with his conscience for the sake of rich remuneration.
Outsiders don't understand him and only think that he has a strange temper, so basically no one dares to approach him, but Gu Muzhi has already seen his thoughts. thinks that if Li Yan goes to fight for it, maybe he can really take the opportunity to envelop him.
Li Yan was reluctant, he was afraid that he would touch his nose, but he couldn't bear Gu Muzhi's insistence, and finally gave in, since Qin Ming liked gold and silver treasures, he directly asked people to carry several boxes of gold and silver treasures to visit Qin Ming early in the morning.
Unexpectedly, it was really as Gu Muzhi thought, although Qin Ming was arrogant, he was really a master who saw money, Rao is a lot of silver Zhou Xun gave on weekdays, but he had never seen so much at one time, just a few symbolic excuses, and he joined their team very happily.
