Chapter 19: Where Have You Gone?

Gu Nianlan was weak, and after getting into the carriage, she obediently snuggled in Gu Jiu's arms and fell asleep.

The carriage was moving along, Gu Jiu hugged his sleeping little niece, felt uneasy in his heart, and ordered softly: "Change the route and go to Anhetang." ”

The words of the strange old Taoist priest were still in her ears, and the smell in Sun Boyin's inner room always made her feel unsteady.

Anwado is not far from here, and after crossing Suzaku Street, you can walk through four or five more streets.

Approaching noon, the pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, and because it was inconvenient to park the carriage in front of Anhetang, Gu Jiu asked Mama Grandma to look at Gu Nianlan in the carriage, and got off the car with the medicine bag herself.

When she got out of the carriage, she heard a commotion, and immediately saw a group of people beating horses coming from a distance, and where they passed, the pedestrians avoided one after another.

The person at the head was dressed in a black robe, with cold eyebrows and eyes.

It's Qin Zheng.

Gu Jiu paused, unconsciously pursed his lips, his body had already reacted first, avoiding the side of the carriage.

Qin Zheng's gaze swept past her, and even though he withdrew his gaze, he passed by her as if he hadn't seen it.

Seeing that he had neglected himself, Gu Jiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the fingers holding the medicine bag were loosened, and he heard the neighing of horses.

It turned out to be Qin Zheng who turned back again.

Gu Jiu turned around instantly, but saw the man sitting upright on the horse, holding the reins in his hand, staring at him with eyes like lightning.

The next moment, he jumped off the horse, stood firmly in front of him, and grabbed her wrist and put it to his nose.

Such intimacy in front of the public caught Gu Jiu off guard, and when she was forcibly pulled closer by him, she could clearly smell the blood on his body.

The rust and blood mixed with the sandalwood on his body were strangely fused together, which also made Gu Jiu's heart beat wildly.

"You ......"

However, before she could finish speaking, she saw that the man had already let go of her hand, and asked in a deep voice, "Where have you been?" ”

The man's gaze was scrutinizing, making Gu Jiu's momentary confusion suddenly disappear, and when he met his cold expression, he felt a basin of ice water splash down.

She took a step back as if she had woken up from a dream, restrained her embarrassment, bit her lip and asked, "Where have I been, do I need to report to you?" ”

After five years of getting along, she knows his emotions well, and she knows more clearly that he is angry now.

And I'm still angry with myself.

But it was him who suddenly became intimate, and the subordinates who were watching the excitement behind him at this time were also his people, so he should feel angry and angry with his little girl, right, why was he suddenly angry?

Choked by Gu Jiu, Qin Zheng squinted at her, only to find that the little girl's eyes were full of tears, and the tails of her eyes were red, looking extremely aggrieved.

Qin Zheng realized that he was a little fierce, but the smell on her body couldn't help his carelessness, and said coldly: "I still have something important to do, you tell me, where did you go today?" ”

The ointment mixed with mandal flowers is the smell of the place where the three are indiscriminate.

This tone, no matter how it sounds, is like the tone of a prisoner.

and the eyes of his subordinates full of curiosity and gossip, which made Gu Jiu very uncomfortable, she took a step back, avoided his gaze and said, "I'm not a prisoner, so I have anger, you rush to others." ”

The little girl's voice was a little angry, Qin Zheng twisted his eyebrows, and just wanted to say something, but he heard the soft voice of the little girl behind him: "Little uncle." ”

The five or six-year-old little girl, with a soft voice, is not very standard when she salutes, and her round cat eyes are full of smiles.

Probably because Qin Zheng had fun with her yesterday, this little uncle's status in her heart skyrocketed, not only was she not afraid of him at this moment, but after saluting, she directly grabbed his hand.

Qin Zheng's face softened in an instant.

He stretched out his hand and touched Gu Nianlan's head, and responded very gently.

Gu Jiu was still a little angry before, but after seeing Gu Nianlan, he was worried about the presence of the child, took Gu Nianlan by his side, and said in a soft voice: "What happened to Lan'er?" ”

When she got out of the carriage before, Gu Nianlan was still asleep.

The grandmother who followed behind her was very afraid of Qin Zheng, her face turned white, she could listen to Gu Jiu's words, and she was still able to retain her last sanity, and replied in a trembling voice: "Miss Sun woke up and wanted to find you." ”

And Gu Nianlan has already begun to share her journey with Qin Zheng today: "My little aunt took Lan'er to see a doctor, that old man is so fierce." ”

Gu Jiu: ......

Her own little girl had already sold her first, so she still gambled with Qin Zheng.

Only then did Qin Zheng notice the medicinal herbs she was carrying in her hand, and stretched out her hand: "Bring it." ”

The man's expression was coercive, and Gu Jiu didn't want to give it, but his actions were already ahead of his mind, and he handed over the medicine bag in his hand.

seemed to feel that this action was very shameless, Gu Jiu bit his lip again and said, "It is rumored that the doctor is capable, I will take Lan'er over to have a look." ”

Qin Zheng didn't open it, but just twisted his eyebrows and said, "Don't eat it yet." ”

His appearance was too serious, Gu Jiu felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart, and asked tentatively, "But there is a problem with the medicine?" I was also going to go to the pharmacy and ask someone to check the ingredients. ”

Regarding her words, Qin Zheng was noncommittal, casually hung the medicine bag in the bag on horseback, nodded in response, thought about it, and then instructed: "I still have something to do, wait until I go home." ”

Gu Jiu wanted to say something more, but when he heard this, he had to nod his head and answer, "Okay." ”

Qin Zheng was indeed in a hurry, and after instructing her, he turned over and took the horse and left.

After he left, the grandmother behind him asked with some hesitation: "Miss, the medicine was taken away by my uncle, what should we do now?" ”

Gu Jiu thought about it for a while, thought for a while, and said, "You take Miss Sun back to the house first, I still have some things to deal with." ”

Qin Zheng's attitude was wrong, that Divine Doctor Sun...... Could it be that you are tired?

She needs to go back and confirm again, even if it is to see the authenticity of the other party.

However, they must not be able to take Gu Nianlan.

Who would have thought that Gu Jiu didn't see Sun Boyin.

The gate was locked, and the mottled wooden door was closed so that the inside could not be seen from the outside.

Gu Jiu was a little uneasy in her heart, but there was no one in the courtyard, so she had to give up, but when she turned back to Suzaku Street, she paused again.

The old Taoist priest clearly seemed to know something.

And the words he said at noon......

The prison cell of Jingzhao Yin's Mansion was built for a long time, and it is said that this brick and tile are all from the previous dynasty.

Probably because of the perennial detention of prisoners, even the fence at the door carries a chill.

The two cell heads guarding the door were dressed in official clothes, and the sword hung from their waists, but it was a pity that they were probably guilty of spring sleepiness, yawning one by one, and losing a lot of this official authority.

Naturally, the officials who don't even have a grade have no official authority to speak of.

Although Gu Jiu had never dealt with these people, he was not completely ignorant, and after explaining his intentions, he took the silver out and said with a smile: "The official is good, can you let me in to meet the old gentleman, a little heart, not respect." ”

The cell bosses naturally did not accept the silver sent to the door, but after hearing that she wanted to see the old Taoist priest who had only been arrested that morning, she waved her hand and said: "Little girl, we really don't let you see it, if ordinary people return it, we turn a blind eye, who will have trouble with the silver?" But it was a murderer, a felon, and now he was just waiting for the master to pronounce the sentence. If we put you in at this time, we won't be able to protect our errand. ”

When he said this, the cell boss pushed back even the money.

The words were said very earnestly, Gu Jiu originally saw that they were embarrassed, but he looked at the silver money greedily, and simply handed the silver back, and said, "If you really can't see it, it's okay, I wonder if the two officials can tell me who he killed?" ”

It's naturally good to have silver, the two people looked at each other, they couldn't stand the fragrance of the silver, took it in their pockets, and said at the end: "That's it, it's okay to tell you, it's just a little girl's, don't be afraid of dirty ears." ”

After Gu Jiu nodded, one of the older ones said: "This old Taoist priest is not a thing, he went to Goolan Courtyard at night to hook a flower girl, and after having fun, he actually strangled someone to death, and when the corpse was found this morning, the flower girl was stiff." Tsk, I pity a beautiful girl like a flower. ”
