Chapter 3: The Deceased

Li Sangrou woke up and opened the curtain.

The sun is shining outside the window, and the green trees are shaking, which is quite a bit of a quiet feeling.

Li Sangrou stretched her waist happily, dressed and freshened up slowly, opened the door, and a handsome little man with a smile greeted her.

"Little Ruyi, please say hello to Miss Li."

"Ruyi? This name is so auspicious, whose little guy are you? ”

Li Sangrou did a big thing, slept enough, was in a good mood, and looked Ruyi up and down:

The best azure silk caftan is tied with silk silk and silk shoes at the waist...... There is no Adam's apple.

"The little one is on an errand beside the prince, and the prince told the little one to wait here for Miss Li to wake up, wait for the girl to have breakfast first, and then invite the girl to come over and talk."

Ruyi's eyes are dark and bright, and her voice is clear and pleasant.

can be an errand boy next to a noble person like Gu Xi, naturally they are all smart and lovely.

"I'll go see Dachang first."

"Yes! Chang Ye is in the outer courtyard, Miss Li is here, please. ”

Ruyi didn't say a word, turned around and led Li Sangrou to the outer courtyard.

The corners of Li Sangrou's mouth curved into a slight smile.

The faces of the people are often the true expression of the owner's attitude.

Dachang had already woken up, and the golden retriever and the black horse were holding a red ginseng with red faces and red ears.

"That's how I told you!"

"! I've never heard of this red ginseng being eaten raw! ”

"Lao Tzu is from ...... background"

"Come on, you!"

"Boss! The boss is here! Boss, you give a ...... to the judges."

The dark horse faced the door of the house, and saw Li Sangrou come in at a glance, as if he had seen a savior.

"Boss, you have to take care of him, just say that this red ginseng can be gnawed directly, you can bluff me, and you are not afraid of hurting Brother Da Chang?"

The golden retriever also jumped over and waved the red ginseng in his hand at the black horse.

"How's Datsune?" Li Sangrou ignored them and walked straight to the kang.

Dachang's face was pale, but his spirit was good, "I'm fine." ”

Li Sangrou lifted the thin quilt and carefully examined the wound, and then turned around and asked the black horse and the golden retriever.

"Where did the red ginseng come from? Sent by the Son? ”

"No, it's Fourth Master Wen, the one with the white helmet and white armor yesterday, and the majestic one!" The golden retriever looked adoring.

He watches the play, and he likes white armor the most, all of them are majestic and good-looking, so that's really the case!

"Look at your worthless look!"

The black horse pouted and leaned at the golden retriever.

"It must have been sent by the prince of the world, he is an errand runner!

If it weren't for the prince, he would know who you are? Look at you, you've never seen the world before! ”

"Have you seen the world?" The golden retriever didn't say a word.

"Cut this red ginseng into thin slices for Da Chang to eat, just eat three or five slices a day, don't eat too much."

Li Sangrou ignored the bickering between the black horse and the golden retriever, and only ordered the right thing.

"I heard you!"

The black horse waved the red ginseng in his hand, his face flushed.

"I said, just eat it! You've got to fight with me, I'll tell you......"

"When the black horse goes to the kitchen, he asks for a big rooster that is only about a year old, puts a dozen slices of red ginseng, and stews chicken soup for Dachang to drink."

Li Sangrou took the red ginseng from the black horse and handed it to the golden retriever.

"Cut both of them, and you and the black horse will eat them for a few days."

Li Sangrou came out, followed Ruyi to breakfast, and went to the main courtyard next door to see Gu Xi.

There are many guards in the post station, and more than a dozen pairs of brocade guards are nailed like goose wings at the entrance of the main courtyard.

Entering the courtyard gate, along the verandahs on both sides, the brocade guards took five steps and a pair.

In the courtyard, under the sun, there were more than a dozen civil and military officials of different colors standing with their hands down.

Li Sangrou did not hide her curiosity, turning her head back and forth as she walked.

It was the first time she had seen the majesty and luxury of the highest echelons of this era.

Not far from the door of the main house, the curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged official with a gray face staggered out, his eyes were straight and stunned, brushed Li Sangrou, and staggered out all the way.

Li Sangrou stopped, followed the middle-aged official, looked at it for a moment, and then raised her feet and entered the room.

Maybe it was because there was too much ice in the room, and a strong aura of killing came to the face.

Gu Xi wore a golden crown on his head, wore an indigo silk tuanhua gown, half lying down and half sitting on the couch, his face was pale and gloomy.

In front of the couch, there was yesterday's silver-armored young man standing on one side, wearing an apricot yellow robe, with a smile on his slightly round face, without yesterday's murderous aura, he looked like a group of harmony.

On the other side stood a man in a green shirt, long and fair-skinned, too thin and too white, showing a little sickly, but adding a soft melancholy and elegant.

Li Sangrou stared straight at the man in the green shirt, like five thunderbolts.

It's him!

He's here too?

Facing Li Sangrou's straight gaze, the man in the green shirt raised his eyebrows slightly, and subconsciously looked at Gu Xi.

Gu Xi's eyebrows were raised, and he looked at Li Sangrou's straight eyes and face full of shock in surprise, and for a moment, he looked at the man in the green shirt.

The man in the green shirt met Gu Xi's gaze, spread his hand, and shook his head.

Li Sangrou was in a trance, and subconsciously took a step back.

"The girl has seen Shouzhen?" Gu Xi stared at Li Sangrou and asked.

"Huh?" Li Sangrou was in a trance, and she was stunned when asked by Gu Xi, but she didn't react.

"He is Wencheng, the words are true, my record office joined the army, and along the way, I borrowed his identity.

The girl has seen Shouzhen? ”

Gu Xi pointed to the man in the green shirt and explained, and asked again.

"If he hadn't seen me, I probably hadn't seen him. He's a lot like an old friend of mine. ”

Li Sangrou glanced at Wen Cheng, who was looking at her, lowered her eyes, and replied to Gu Xi.

Gu Xi glanced at Wen Cheng again, sighed, and pointed to yesterday's silver-armored young man and introduced:

"He also has the surname Wen, and his name is harmonious, and he is the commander of my guard."

"Fourth Master Wen."

Li Sangrou greeted Wen Shunzhi with a bow.

"Don't dare to be, the girl just calls me peaceful."

Wen Shunzhi hurriedly returned the salute, smiled, and showed a tiger tooth, adding a bit of childishness to the harmony.

"That's a hundred thousand silver."

Gu Xi gestured to Wen Cheng.

Wen Cheng took out a big red envelope, but handed it to Wen Shunzhi, who took it and handed it to Li Sangrou.

Gu Xi squinted at Wen Cheng handing the big red envelope to Wen Shunzhi, and then watched Li Sangrou take the big red envelope, open it, take out the silver ticket, twist it and count it, and then put it in.

"Thank you." Li Sangrou arched her hand at Gu Xi.

"What are the girl's plans?" Gu Xi asked.

"When are you leaving?"

Li Sangrou didn't answer Gu Xi's words, but asked rhetorically.

"Let's rest here for a few days. Here to Jianle City, the fast horse is only an hour. ”

"If we don't bother, we want to rest for a few days before leaving." Li Sangrou replied quickly.

"Okay, you just have to rest in peace." Gu Xi readily agreed.

Li Sangrou thanked her and said goodbye.

Seeing Li Sangrou walking away, Gu Xi instructed Wen Cheng: "Pick a proper person to take a look." ”

"Yes." Wen Cheng agreed.

"Have you seen her?" Gu Xi suddenly asked.

Wen Cheng shook his head.

"Maybe you met her and you didn't notice, or you forgot?" Gu Xi asked again.

"No, it won't."

Wen Cheng replied in the affirmative.

"This girl is not an ordinary person, as long as she has encountered it, it is impossible not to notice it, let alone forget it."

Gu Xi snorted, was silent for a moment, looked at Wen Cheng and said:

"She might want to find a chance to talk to you, and see if you can get something out of it.

I was able to come back safely this time thanks to her help.

This girl is the boss of the night incense shop in Jiangdu City, before taking over the night incense shop, she was known as the leader of the beggar gang, and the beggars of Jiangdu City obeyed her.

Shopkeeper Zhao respects her very much, saying that as long as this girl is willing to take over, I will definitely be able to return to Jianle City safely. ”

Speaking of Shopkeeper Zhao, Gu Xi's expression was slightly gloomy.

In order to save him, the shopkeeper Zhao, who was over half a hundred years old, died tragically in the inn.

"She's very good at kung fu, alert, meticulous and cautious, well-read, very knowledgeable, she never mentions her background, and when I ask a few times, she avoids answering."

Gu Xi paused.

"I can't see through her."

Wen Cheng listened intently and hummed in a low voice.
