Lu Yuan is very satisfied with this store, he can buy herbs and news, kill two birds with one stone, and he is also a frequent customer of these two, on this day, Lu Yuan came again, found his favorite herb, smiled with satisfaction, and then thought of something, and asked the boss tentatively: "Do you know the whereabouts of the thousand-year-old Xuezhi?" ”

There was silence, and after a while, Lu Yuan heard the sound of flipping through the pages, and one of the women spoke.

"Huh? Do you want it? It's a high price......"

Lu Yuan rarely heard the boss of this mysterious intelligence pavilion say that the price was relatively high, he was a little curious, but he didn't say anything, and turned to leave.

The mother family, Gu Muzhi has been staying in her room, and then she was notified that she needed to come forward to attend the mother family meeting, Gu Muzhi could only agree, she was dressed up by Xiaolan early this morning, and after tidying up, she rushed to the ancestral hall to participate in the discussion of the mother family.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Muzhi entered, he saw Zhou Xun sitting at the top, with a smile in his eyes, and pretended to wave to Gu Muzhi, and asked gently: "Ah Zhi, you don't know how anxious I am when you disappear during this time, you don't know how happy I am to see you so good now!" ”

Gu Muzhi was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes and saw that there were several elders nearby, their eyes were a little evasive, but in the end they still smiled at Gu Muzhi, and also greeted Gu Muzhi, asking her how her body was.

Gu Muzhi knew at a glance that she had been recuperating in her mother's clan for a month, except for the patriarch who had come and asked her to come forward to deal with the affairs of her mother's clan, but she shirked it, none of these people in front of her went to see her, and now they came to ask her how her body was, Gu Muzhi couldn't help but feel vigilant in her heart.

Gu Muzhi smiled and saluted the elders, looked up at Zhou Xun and said, "I haven't seen you for many days, I miss you very much, your people came to save me that day, I am really grateful, but it is too much of a coincidence, hey, the injuries on my body are not healed yet." ”

After speaking, Gu Muzhi also raised his eyes and looked at the elders next to him.

The elders couldn't help but tremble in their hearts when they saw it, and at this moment the patriarch came out, relieving everyone's embarrassing atmosphere: "Ah Zhi! What are you doing here? is still holding grudges, Zhou Xun didn't mean it, he was also very anxious to find you during this time. ”

Gu Muzhi saw that the elders had come forward, and he didn't want to continue talking, so he raised his hand and waved his hand and said, "Patriarch, what is the matter with calling me here today?" If it's okay I'll go back, my wounds haven't healed yet. ”

Zhou Xun smiled, it was still the same as before, but his expression was a little rare gentle, and he said to Gu Muzhi: "Ah Zhi, the two of us are quite fateful, if you marry me, I will definitely be good to you!" ”

After saying this, Zhou Xun wanted to pull Gu Muzhi's hand, but was directly rejected by Gu Muzhi, looked at Gu Muzhi's deep face, coughed twice, waved his hand and pretended to be nothing and sat in his place.

"Zhou Xun, aren't you joking with me, I'm marrying you?"

Gu Muzhi was a little incredible, she raised her eyes and looked at the people around her, her heart suddenly cooled, it seemed that they should have planned it at this time, and when she saw that the elders around her suddenly challenged Gu Muzhi, they all proposed that Gu Muzhi and Zhou Xun get married.

One of the elders even stepped forward and whispered to Gu Muzhi, "Ah Zhi, if you don't marry Zhou Xun, then you have to be wronged to continue to stay in the room." ”

Gu Muzhi saw that there was really no way, and at this time there were no other forces around her, so she had to show a somewhat aggrieved expression to deal with the people in front of her, and walked to Zhou Xun's side pitifully, and said.

"I didn't expect Zhou Xun to marry me at all, this matter is a little too fast, you might as well give me a day and let me think about it......"

Zhou Xun saw Gu Muzhi loosen his mouth, and immediately agreed, and patted Gu Muzhi's shoulder with a smile and said, "Since Ah Zhi wants to think about it carefully, then don't disturb her, let Ah Zhi rest in the house today, we are waiting for her answer." Don't worry, I'm sure Ah Zhi will make the best choice, right? Ah Zhi. ”

"Well, you're right, I'll definitely make the right choice."

Gu Muzhi smiled, her heart was half cold, she didn't expect that these people would collude and want her to marry Zhou Xun, she immediately went back to think about what to do next.

Gu Muzhi returned to her room, her mind was blank, she only felt that this incident was funny but helpless.

Early the next morning, someone knocked on the door, it was Zhou Xun, he smiled patiently, patted Xiaolan, and his tone was gentle, as if his previous hypocrite appearance was someone else's hallucination, only to hear him say: "Xiaolan, let Ah Zhi get up early and taste this fresh red blood bird's nest." ”

At this time, Gu Muzhi was already completely awake, full of anger, she was already disturbed by Zhou Xun's knock on the door, and she was already sober up a lot, and his words made her completely sober. So Gu Muzhi said to Zhou Xun outside with a haze in his voice: "Zhou Xun, let Xiaolan continue, I'll wake up and eat later!" ”

Zhou Xun listened and replied with a smile: "Then Ah Zhi, do you remember to eat, I don't know if you have a good answer?" Don't worry, I'll wait for you. With that, he left.

The day passed in a hurry, and at night, Gu Muzhi still couldn't find Qin Boyong's secret guard, and didn't spread the matter, the secret guard sent by Qin Boyong seemed to have been cleaned up recently, Gu Muzhi was very anxious, but there was no way, so he had to agree.

In the palace, for some reason, the little emperor's body died suddenly, and at first it got better, then he couldn't move his legs, then his whole lower body couldn't move, and finally he couldn't even speak, and he died in a few days.

After receiving the news of the emperor's death, Zhou Xun sat in his room and thought, he suspected at the moment that those courtiers in the court couldn't sit still, and now that he had cultivated his own power, he mobilized his connections to investigate the matter.

A few days later, a small businessman dressed in gray hurriedly entered the secret door of the mother's family, skillfully twisted left and right, and finally turned to the back door of Zhou Xun's study, and asked Zhou Xun for peace when he entered the door: "I've seen Young Master Zhou Xun!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me what is going on in the capital now."

The peddler dusted himself off, then pulled a boxy letter from his sleeve and handed it over.

After watching Zhou Xun open it, he began to explain to him the current situation and variables in the court.

"Now that the DPRK and China have begun to change greatly, according to the youngest son of a prime minister, it was his father who poisoned him, and planned the death of the emperor with several other ministers of the DPRK and China!"

"Sure enough, these courtiers are finally coming to the fore."
