Shen Bai hid the piece of paper and didn't dare to show it to Gu Hengzhou.

Originally, Gu Hengzhou was already doubting whether she knew Su Xiaoqiu, but now he saw the ironclad evidence that she matched Su Xiaoqiu and him together, and specified that she should explain it clearly.

But how can this be explained?

She just confessed that she was reborn, and Brother Gu shouldn't believe it.

Shen Bai's palms were sweaty, Gu Hengzhou stared at her for a while, and then turned his gaze to Su Xiaoqiu and asked, "It's not early, what is the girl doing here?" “

Su Xiaoqiu was still a little afraid of Gu Hengzhou, so she hurriedly lowered her head and said softly: "Back to Your Highness, I came to apologize to Lord Shen, and I didn't say goodbye to her during the day, causing her a lot of trouble." “

Gu Hengzhou asked: "Have you finished what you should have said?" “

Su Xiaoqiu nodded, Gu Hengzhou made a gesture of invitation slightly sideways and said, "It's not early, there is no maid to serve here, and the girl's reputation is damaged by being here alone, please go back." “

Gu Hengzhou's words were very polite, but his tone was undeniable.

Su Xiaoqiu quickly glanced up at him, unable to refute his words, and walked out of the room with a bow.

Gu Hengzhou said to the Praetorian Guards at the door: "Send Miss Xiaoqiu back to the North Courtyard." “

The Praetorian Guards immediately followed Su Xiaoqiu to the north courtyard, and Gu Hengzhou closed the door. Dial the deadbolt, turn his head and walk in front of Shen Bai, and ask, "Take it out yourself or wait for me to do it?" “

If it weren't for the injury to his tongue, Shen Bai would have chewed and swallowed this ball of paper at this time.

She sweated on her forehead, took a pen and wrote a sentence on the paper: Brother Gu, it's all the private words of her daughter's family, can I not show it to you?

Gu Hengzhou didn't bargain with Shen Bai, and grabbed her arm to find her to hide the paper.

In terms of skill, Shen Bai is absolutely no match for Gu Hengzhou, she struggled to the death for a while, but the paper was still found and snatched by Gu Hengzhou.

The paper was crumpled into a crumpled piece by her, Gu Hengzhou put it on the table and spread it out a little bit, and saw Shen Bai's words written on it.

There was nothing wrong with those words at first glance, they were all praising him, but after a closer look, there was something wrong, Gu Hengzhou frowned, thought for a moment and finally remembered where something was wrong, and the last two paragraphs were exactly the same as what his second aunt Ye Wanyu said to those matchmakers who came to say goodbye.

Gu Hengzhou kept staring at the piece of paper. didn't speak and didn't have any expression, Shen Bai's heart was tormented, and he couldn't help but write and ask: Brother Gu, I see that Miss Xiaoqiu is very afraid of you, and I'm afraid that she will misunderstand you, so I will reveal a little bit of your preferences to her, so that she can understand you more, and you will know that you are actually a very good person.

Shen Bai wrote quickly, looking at Gu Hengzhou's expression a little cautiously. Gu Hengzhou lowered his eyes and looked cold: "She has nothing to do with me, so what does it matter if she misunderstands me?" “

Brother Gu, you can't say that, you have nothing to do with it now, but maybe you won't be able to say it in the future.

Shen Bai was a little insistent in this regard, and was about to continue to persuade, Gu Hengzhou continued: "Besides, I don't know what kind of person I am. Are you so sure you know me better than I do? “

Of course I do!

Shen Bai nodded unswervingly.

In the last life, I liked Brother Gu for ten years, and I also guarded you for ten years, and I watched you die, if I don't know you, then how can I understand you?

Shen Bai didn't hesitate, the expression on his face was quite serious, Gu Hengzhou turned his head to look at her, and asked, "Then tell me, what kind of person am I?" “

It's too simple.

Shen Bai took a pen and wrote down all the words of praise he could think of on the paper. She has always liked to use gorgeous rhetoric to write articles, but at this moment, Gu Hengzhou was by her side, but she felt that no matter how gorgeous the rhetoric was, she couldn't completely write Gu Hengzhou's goodness.

Shen Bai wrote more and more energetically, eager to finish the pile of paper on the table, Gu Hengzhou looked at it for a while, saw that she was all praised, nothing new, took the pen in her hand away, and asked: "So in your eyes, I have no shortcomings?" “

Brother Gu, except that you are a little cold, you don't like to talk to others, so you really don't have any shortcomings.

Shen Bai thought for a moment and nodded seriously, Gu Hengzhou put the pen on the inkstone, lowered his eyes and said lightly: "There can't be a person in this world who is so perfect that there are no shortcomings, what you wrote is just words to flatter." “

Brother Gu, I'm not slapping you on the back, it's that you're so good.

Shen Bai wanted to snatch back the pen to defend himself, but he heard Gu Hengzhou say, "If this is not what you deliberately flatter." That only shows that your understanding of me is still superficial, and you don't know what the real me is like at all. “

If you knew the real me, maybe you wouldn't like me as much as you do now.

Gu Hengzhou didn't say the latter sentence, but Shen Bai guessed at once, she didn't expect Gu Hengzhou to have such an idea, hesitated for a while, Shen Bai tried to grab Gu Hengzhou's hand, and wrote in his palm: Brother Gu, I know that no one is perfect, but in the past so many years, what I have seen and heard is the real you, if there is anything I don't know about you, it must be that you don't want me to understand, since you don't want to, I naturally won't be curious to explore.

Shen Bai lowered his head, his expression was focused and serious, Gu Hengzhou looked at her, felt the slight itch in his palm, and his throat was a little tight, but he didn't show it, and said in a low voice: "Since you know that there are still things you don't know about me, don't arbitrarily associate me with anyone next to me in the future, I don't like it." “

Shen Bai only thought that he didn't like to be arranged by others, and nodded seriously.

Since Brother Gu doesn't like it, then I will be more cautious in the future and not let Brother Gu know about these things.

Shen Bai secretly said in his heart, Gu Hengzhou put away the crumpled piece of paper. He picked up the prescription next to him and asked, "What is this?" “

Shen Bai's face did not change, and he wrote in Gu Hengzhou's palm: This is the prescription that Imperial Doctor Zhang helped me prescribe before, and after drinking the medicine I caught, I copied a copy from memory, and prepared to let people grab a few more pairs to boil.

It was not obvious that Su Xiaoqiu had altered those three places, but Gu Hengzhou could still see at a glance that these were the handwriting of two people, he didn't break it, glanced at Shen Bai, and questioned: "There are so many flavor medicines, do you remember them?" “

Shen Bai patted his chest, very confident, Gu Hengzhou ignored her, summoned a Praetorian Guard who was on duty outside, handed the prescription to the man and ordered: "First find the doctor with the best medical skills in the city, make sure that there is no problem with this prescription and then grab the medicine back." “

The Praetorian Guard left with the prescription, Shen Bai knew that Gu Hengzhou had always been so cautious in doing things, so he didn't say anything more, took out the paper he had pressed at the bottom before, and began to talk to Gu Hengzhou about business.

The flood in Mozhou this time was not as serious as written on the fold, and Wei Xun probably just wanted to take the opportunity to embezzle some disaster relief funds, but they all came, and the flood should still be treated.

While Gu Hengzhou was looking at things, Shen Bai drew a map of the swamp and the Beitong River from memory.

Shen Bai wrote a lot of things, Gu Hengzhou looked at them very seriously, and after he finished reading these things, Shen Bai just finished drawing the map.

Gu Hengzhou took the pile of paper and asked Shen Bai: "You didn't finish writing later, did you already guess who tied Murong Xuan from Hanjing to Mozhou?" “

Shen Bairuo said that he didn't guess it, with Gu Hengzhou's temperament. I'm afraid that I will never think about Jiang De'an and Li Deren.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Bai wrote on a blank piece of paper: Brother Gu, before the excerpt of the flood in Mozhou was presented to the front of the palace, there was just an assassination in the palace, the fourth prince was assassinated, and the concubine of the Jiang family was also humiliated by an unknown person, and the situation was so serious that His Majesty issued a death order to close the palace and no one was allowed to enter or leave, but as soon as the excerpt of the flood was handed over. The tension was broken in an instant.

The timing of the flood in Mozhou is really ingenious, especially after Shen Bai went to the scene to inspect and found that the flood was not as serious as said in the excerpt, if she hadn't taken the initiative to ask for orders to come to the disaster relief and control the flood, who should be to treat the flood? Who can find out about the deliberate exaggeration of the Mozhou Prefecture in Hanjing?

Gu Hengzhou's eyebrows twisted slightly, and Shen Bai wrote on the paper again: Brother Gu, I suspect that this fold is a trick deliberately used by the mastermind behind the real assassination to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

Under normal circumstances, there is a flood in Mozhou, and the prime minister must be released. The second is to ask the Jiang family to pay for it, and both are indispensable, but Shen Bai took the initiative to jump out, and it became Shen Bai's outcome, and the military salary was urgent.

Shen Bai stopped at the point, didn't dare to say too clearly, and was about to use the map to explain in detail the idea of building the canal, Gu Hengzhou asked softly: "Do you suspect that the masterminds behind the assassination of the Fourth Highness are the Jiang family and the Li family?" “

According to Shen Bai's thinking, there is only one possibility for this matter.

Since Gu Hengzhou took the initiative to find out this matter. Shen Bai was not ambiguous, and simply analyzed the current situation clearly: Brother Gu, the first queen has been dead for ten years, although His Majesty has not established the queen again, but Concubine De has firmly sat on the throne of the lord of the six palaces, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is an orthodox prince, but the Wei family, the mother family of the first queen, is already in the twilight of the West Mountain, and cannot make strong support for His Royal Highness the Prince, and it is normal for some people in the court to have suspicions at this time.

This kind of talk. If people hear it, let alone Shen Bai, it's not enough to pick the heads of dozens of people in Taifu Mansion.

Although the Praetorian Guards outside obeyed Gu Hengzhou's orders, after all, they were still royal people, Gu Hengzhou did not speak again, and took a pen to continue Shen Bai's words and wrote: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the eldest son of the former queen, wise and brave, young and promising, and the auxiliary government has not been lacking in achievements over the years. If anyone dares to have a different heart, it is a great disapproval of the world!

The four words of loyalty and patriotism were engraved in the bones and blood of the Gu family, and Gu Hengzhou couldn't understand why someone dared to do such a heinous thing in the following crimes.

Shen Bai was not in a hurry, and continued to write: Brother Gu, what Your Majesty and Li Min need is a Ming monarch who can govern the rivers and mountains of Zhaoling, but all the family needs is interests, otherwise Brother Gu thinks how can I come out as the son of Taifu?

Shen Bai used himself as an example, the secret that she was a daughter completely broke Gu Hengzhou's cognition of the former queen, and also shook some things that Gu Hengzhou had always insisted on.

Shen Bai continued to write: The assassination of the fourth prince, Your Majesty and Lord Guogong will deal with it properly in Beijing, I just have a chat with Brother Gu, the most important thing at the moment is to deal with the flood in Mozhou and find out the situation in Yuanfeng County, Brother Gu plans to go to Yuanfeng County in person?

Shen Bai actually didn't recommend Gu Hengzhou to go to Yuanfeng County alone, if there was really a fine work in the city, or if Ye Mingshan, the county guard of Yuanfeng County, was bewitched by someone and wanted to do something evil, no one could predict what Gu Hengzhou would encounter when he went.

Gu Hengzhou did plan to go to Yuanfeng County, but he didn't plan to let Shen Bai know, he knew better than Shen Bai how much risk he had to take on this trip, he shook his head, picked up the map that Shen Bai had just drawn and changed the topic: "The Beitong River you painted?" “

Shen Bai's map is very clear, the terrain of the marshland is slightly lower than the Beitong River, and there is only a small hill in between, and Shen Bai drew arrows on the small hillside, indicating that explosives should be placed here to build a canal. Water is diverted to marshland, irrigated in the dry season, and waterlogged in the rainy season.

Gu Hengzhou had only seen the drawings for building wartime fortifications in the war book, and he didn't know much about other matters, so he said lightly: "This plan does look good, but you can't take it for granted, have you inspected it near the swamp?" How deep should the canal be built? If the hillside is blown up and the river rushes into the swamp, will it affect the people living in the surrounding area? “

Shen Bai had already prepared for these questions, and immediately wrote: I have already taken people to the vicinity of the swamp to see, that place is inaccessible, almost no one lives around, and when the river water is poured in, it will form a huge lake, and the surrounding people can also use this lake to raise some aquatic products and sell them for money, which is a good and harmless thing, and I have also found the most famous builder in the city in the past few days, and wait for the canal to be completed. The bridge over the canal will be built soon, and at most two months, the people's lives will be back to normal.

Shen Bai almost thought about everything, Gu Hengzhou put the drawings aside and said, "For the time being, you will go with me to the swamp to inspect it tomorrow." “

Shen Bai nodded, there was no problem at all.

After finishing business, Gu Hengzhou said to Shen Bai: "There is still an extra quilt in the cabinet, go and take it out." “

Gotcha!

Shen Baihuan happily hugged the quilt. Gu Hengzhou burned all the papers she had just written, and her expression was hidden behind the dancing firelight, which was clearly extinguished, and it was bitterly cold.

Shen Bai was bent on sleeping with Gu Hengzhou, picked up the quilt and rushed to the bedside, but was stopped by Gu Hengzhou: "Stop!" “

Shen Bai turned his head curiously holding the quilt, and saw Gu Hengzhou move all the things on the desk to the shelf, and then raised his chin at her.

Shen Bai: "??"

Brother Gu, you don't want me to sleep at the desk, do you?

Shen Bai's whole face froze, and Gu Hengzhou asked coldly, "Forget what I said before?" “

Shen Bai's shoulders slumped. She didn't forget, she remembered clearly, Brother Gu said that she was not allowed to get too close to any man in the future.

But Brother Gu is not another man.

Thinking of this, Shen Bai looked at Gu Hengzhou with some expectation, Gu Hengzhou was unmoved, and asked, "Don't want to?" “

How can you not want to.

I can be in the same room with Brother Gu, even if I hang it on the beam, I am willing!

Shen Bai's chick nodded as if pecking rice, and ran to the desk to spread the quilt.

The desk is not long, Gu Hengzhou can't sleep at all, but it is just right to sleep with one Shen Bai.

Shen Bai was afraid of the cold, so he came out of the wardrobe with two quilts, and he didn't need Gu Hengzhou to urge, when he was ready, he kicked his shoes and got into the quilt to lie down, only revealing a fluffy head and looking at Gu Hengzhou obediently outside.

Gu Hengzhou looked at her for a while, then walked to the bed, and was about to undress, when he turned his head and saw Shen Bai stretching his neck to look at this side, and raised his hand to wave. Use the palm wind to extinguish the oil lamp.

The room fell into darkness, Shen Bai couldn't see anything, and Gu Hengzhou's movements were very soft, and he didn't make a sound at all.

After a while, Shen Bai's neck was sore, and he lay down in disappointment.

Brother Gu went to Mozhou this time, kissed her and touched her?? touched her, but didn't even let her look at it, it's too unfair.

Shen Bai only dared to talk in his heart, because Gu Hengzhou was here, it was rare to feel at ease, and the drowsiness soon invaded, and after arriving in Mozhou, he had the first good sleep.

After a dreamless night, Shen Bai slept soundly and deeply, and was woken up by Gu Hengzhou the next day, and when he turned his head, it was already bright outside.

Gu Hengzhou had already cleaned up and practiced in the yard for half an hour, and waited for Shen Bai to be dressed neatly before he asked people to send hot water to wash.

Breakfast was eaten in the courtyard, and after eating, the Praetorian Guard sent a bowl of hot medicine, which should have been written by Su Xiaoqiu last night, and asked the doctor to check it and pick up the medicine to boil.

Although Shen Bai was not afraid of hypocrisy, he couldn't help frowning when he saw this medicine.

No one in this world will rush to get hurt because they can endure the pain.

The medicine was cooled to just the right temperature, Shen Bai pinched his nose and drank the medicine in one go, and poured two sips of tea before going to the front hall with Gu Hengzhou.

I said yes last night. The two of them were going to investigate the vicinity of the swamp again.

When the two of them were about to arrive in the front hall, someone came over, and when they saw them, they immediately said: "Your Royal Highness, Lord Shen, the gunpowder purchased before has arrived, and the lord invites the two adults to go and check it together." “

Shen Bai raised his eyebrows, the gunpowder should indeed arrive in the past two days.

Gu Hengzhou sent his subordinates to leave and took Shen Bai into the front hall, Wei Xun immediately greeted him, and arched his hand: "His Royal Highness, Lord Shen, all the gunpowder has been transported to Mozhou today, because the quantity is huge, I am worried that something will happen, the lower official asked people to put the gunpowder in the City God Temple outside the city first, and let the messengers of the state capital guard it first, and do not let anyone approach, can the two adults go to check with the lower officials?" “

Gu Hengzhou said succinctly and clearly: "We should go together." Please lead the way, Lord Wei. “

After receiving the order, Wei Xun took Gu Hengzhou and Shen Bai out of the city to check the gunpowder in the City God Temple.

The gunpowder should have been transported to Mozhou yesterday, and it had been neatly stacked in the temple, two hundred stones of gunpowder, which was enough to fill half of the Chenghuang Temple, and before entering the door, you could smell a strong smell of gunpowder.

Wei Xun led Shen Bai and Gu Hengzhou into the temple, and said softly: "Lord Shen has asked for a total of two hundred stones, all of them are here, Lord Shen wants to check the number again?" “

Two hundred stones of gunpowder to blow up that hillside is definitely more than enough, and Wei Xun will not deduct silver money from it.

But he understood in his heart that it was one thing, Shen Bai still pretended to go around the temple, and was about to leave, when he suddenly struck a bunch of gunpowder and was not quite the same as others.

Shen Bai stopped and was about to walk over there, when Wei Xun said in a loud voice, "Lord Shen, but what did you find?" “
