Gu Changfeng went out with his front foot, and Yan Su changed into a neater dress with his back foot.

She asked Youbai to open all the two doors of the bedroom, and asked Youbai to prepare melon seeds and refreshments, and sat down in the room.

"Madam, when the prime minister just came back, the slave and maid stood in the courtyard and talked to the housekeeper, and I heard that those people were about to invade the city."

"Can't get in." Yan Su asked and took a sip of tea: "When Xiangye came back, could you see that there was a slight panic on his face?"

"No, but our family has never had it on his face." Youbai said sullenly: "Anyway, the slave maid has been in the mansion for so long, and I have never seen Xiangye panic, unless it is something related to Miss You." ”

"It's about me now, too." Yan Suwen pointed outside: "Although the sound is very small, if you listen carefully, this night wind is mixed with the sound of swords colliding." The husband didn't panic, because this matter was planned by him and the emperor from beginning to end, and he wanted to dig out all these unstable factors hidden behind his back now. ”

"That Xiangye went to prison, and he also planned it with the emperor? But what is the purpose? ”

"I don't know, what we see is always the surface of things, and what we guess is only what we can guess. What exactly are these two men thinking about? How much they have done in the open and in the dark, I'm afraid only the two of them know. As outsiders who were forced to come in, we just need to play our role, sit here quietly, eat melon seeds, drink tea, watch the play, and wait until the sun rises tomorrow, this day is completely different. ”

As soon as he finished drinking half a cup of tea, the butler ran straight from outside, his face a little flustered. Seeing Yan Su asked, after hurriedly saluting, he said: "Madam, it's not good, there are a lot of people in black outside, and they have surrounded our Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Yan Su asked to put down the teacup and asked Youbai: "Where is Jiang Li?" ”

"I didn't see Miss Jiang." Youbai shook his head slightly.

"Go, shout in the yard and ask where Miss Jiang went?"

Youbai was about to go out, and Jiang Li, who was dressed in silver-white armor, walked in.

"Madame looking for me?"

"The housekeeper said that there are some people in black outside the door, I estimate that they are also desperate, you can take these people in the house and send them away. If the tiger is not powerful, they will treat us as sick cats, but they don't know that this cat will show its claws when it is annoyed. ”

"Yes!" Jiang Li nodded, and Qinggong went out.

Youbai was anxious: "Why did Miss let Jiang Li go, she and our family are not of the same mind, what if she doesn't stop those black-clothed people and let them in?" ”

"If she wanted to let it go, she would have let it go a long time ago, how could she wait until this time. Don't worry, she won't watch our family suffer. ”

"Mademoiselle believes her."

"You say you don't believe it, but you actually believe her in your heart. In the past few days, I haven't seen you talk to her. ”

"The slave and maid reluctantly took care of her for the sake of the young lady. When the young lady gave birth to a little son, she did her best. Youbai looked out on tiptoe, looking for a suitable reason for herself.

Under the ground, there seemed to be a sound. Yan Su asked and listened intently, and after a while, the noise disappeared.

About half an hour later, a secret guard covered in blood fell in the courtyard: "Madam, Miss Jiang asked her subordinates to inform Madame, please Madame go to bed in peace, all the thieves outside the door have been exterminated." Miss Jiang is arranging for people to clean up, and after dawn, there will never be any traces of fighting at the gate of my Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

"Go ahead." Yan Suwen nodded, and the dark guard got up, took two steps back, and disappeared into the night.

In the air, there was nothing left except for the faint stain of blood.

"Butler, how's that in the backyard?"

"According to Madame's instructions, the archers were arranged over there. When Xiangye left, there was still one person left, and the servant had already asked him to go there to take care of him. ”

"After dawn, let someone clean up the secret passage, and then someone will seal all the entrances and exits. We don't need a secret passage, and we don't need to leave such a secret passage for ourselves. ”

"Ma'am?" The butler stopped talking.

"Seal it up, the people of my Gu family, if you want to live, you will die, and you will never escape from that secret passage. If the day comes when we need to escape, I don't think we can escape from this city unscathed. There are hundreds of people up and down the Gu family, it is so easy to escape. ”

"The slave knows."

The housekeeper heard the meaning of Yan Su's question, and his mood instantly became different. This rich and noble family, how can he still care about the life and death of the people below when he escapes for his life. In this world, I am afraid that only their prime ministers are different, not only the old lady is different, the husband is different, and even the lady married by this minister is not the same. This is really in response to what others said, it's not a family, and you don't enter a family.

The butler went down with a strange mood. When he came to this courtyard to report his childhood, the housekeeper was still a little panicked. In the chaos two years ago, how many rich and noble families fled with their masters, and threw a yard of minions to thieves to hack and kill indiscriminately. Although everyone didn't mention it, they also knew how many innocent girls were destroyed in that civil strife, and how many minions who couldn't even leave their names died in that civil strife. The Gu family, protected by Xiangye, is still peaceful, but a few people have died.

The fight that took place at the door of Gu's house hardly alarmed anyone. When you pass by outside the subordinate's room, you can even hear the snoring coming from inside.

Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Yan Suwen clapped his hands and prepared to go back to his room to rest. Youbai couldn't help but ask: "Does Miss really want to go to sleep?" Why don't we go out and see what's going on outside? ”

Yan Su stretched his somewhat stiff arms, "What's so beautiful, these people in black can't make any waves outside our Gu Mansion, and it's the same elsewhere." ”

"Miss is so sure?"

Yan Suwen stretched out his hand and pinched his white nose: "It's not that I'm sure, but I listened with ears." ”

"Listen?"

"Listen carefully, is it quiet at night outside?"

Youbai nodded suspiciously.

"That's it. If there were so many thieves in the city, and there was a lot of uproar, and it was out of control, could this night be so peaceful? Yecheng is the imperial city of the Great Wei Dynasty, in addition to the Jingshi Yamen you know, there are patrol battalions, as well as the emperor's imperial forest army and other soldiers we don't know, but most of the night has passed, have you heard a particularly fierce fight? Didn't you? If you don't have it, it's right, if you don't have it, everything is under the control of the emperor and her husband, and everywhere is peaceful. ”

"Hearing what Miss said, it seems to be the case. In the chaos two years ago, the young lady was not in front of her, but the slave and the maid were there. It was really restless that night, either this voice or that voice, and even if I barely closed my eyes, I would wake up. Many times, the slave maid and Errong thought that they would never see the young lady again. ”

"Bah, I can't see anything. If it's so unlucky, don't say it again. Yan Su asked, and pinched the tip of the young white nose again: "Go back to the room and sleep, while the sky is not yet bright, how many hours can you sleep." After dawn, I don't know what will happen. ”

"What can it be?" Youbai asked, and also covered his mouth and yawned.

"I don't know, maybe it's a good thing, maybe it's not a good thing. In short, something is bound to happen. Go ahead, go back to your room and go to sleep, and don't keep watch outside my yard. You're standing here, and you're making the guards unhappy, as if they're incompetent. ”

"They are not good, if they were careful and cautious, they would not have let people sneak into the lady's room a few days ago. Thanks to the young lady's martial arts, if the young lady is like the average lady, she only knows how to recite poetry, and she doesn't know what to do now. The young white heart was straight and fast, and the words crackled and came out like pouring beans.

"It's not that the secret guards of our Prime Minister's Mansion are not good, but that the secret guards of our Prime Minister's Mansion deliberately put people in. Your young lady and I are also a link in the plan between the emperor and her husband. In this Yecheng, who doesn't know, what Gu Yanqing cares about most is that I Yan Su asked, if you put me aside, wouldn't it make people suspicious? ”

"Miss?" When Youbai heard this, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: "How did Miss know?" Could it be that Xiangye told Miss? No, no, if Xiangye had told Miss earlier, Miss wouldn't have been in the same state as a few days ago. He said he wasn't worried, but he always tossed and turned at night. It's the same during the day, it looks like it's okay, but in fact, many times the slaves and maids talk to Miss, and Miss doesn't seem to hear it. Miss is worried about Xiangye, worried that the emperor will really deal with Xiangye for the crime of rebellion. ”

"Acting, you have to act like that. If you only play eight points, but you want the enemy to believe you for nine points, do you think it's possible? Xiangye didn't tell me, just for my good. If I had told me, I would have worried more. I don't know when I will show my feet. This actor is always not as careful as watching the play. The enemy is dark and I am clear, and it is even more difficult to grasp this degree. ”

"That's so, but as long as I think of Xiangye uniting others to deceive Miss, making Miss worry plainly, the slave maid feels angry."

"It's good to be angry, when he comes back, you can help me beat him." Yan Suwen smiled and shook his head: "Okay, okay, if you have anything to say, wait until dawn." Hurry up and go to sleep, if you don't sleep, you really won't have to sleep. ”

"Rest in peace, young lady, slave and maid will see if this yard is safe." Youbai said, and really went to inspect the yard.

Yan Suwen stood at the door for a while, then turned around and went back to the bedroom. It is not worth taking off the clothes, so I put them on and lie down, and after a while I fall asleep.
