Chapter 9: It's so hard

Han Cheng's appearance was an accident for Xu Qingsi, he quietly raised his eyes from the pile of small seals in the official document, met Gu Hanyi's gaze, and then took it back casually.

Gu Hanyi was absentmindedly studying the ink, but his gaze continued not to leave Xu Qingsi's body, Xu Qingsi was unconscious, and the atmosphere was a little delicate for a while.

Gu Hanyi suddenly asked as if she was idle and bored: "Are Lord Xu's parents alive?" ”

Xu Qingsi's eyebrows twitched.

When Gu Hanyi saw his expression, he realized that there might be something wrong with what he said, and when he came up, he asked his parents, the brain of a scholar is a little bad, and I am afraid that she will not think she is scolding?

So she raised her eyebrows, took a step back and said insincerely: "Oh, I didn't mean that, I was just curious about Lord Xu's young age in an important position, and he traveled far away to take up his post, what if his parents were worried?" ”

Xu Qingsi was silent for a moment, and finally looked at her openly.

Gu Hanyi's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he said with a straight face: "Jingzhong Tai admonishes Yu Shi Zhongcheng, have you ever known Lord Xu?" ”

Xu Qingsi did not speak.

Gu Hanyi said again: "That Hubu Shangshu? ”

Xu Qingsi seemed to be smiling.

Gu Hanyi raised his eyebrows for a moment, what kind of expression is this?

Although she knew in her heart that the two people she said were not very similar to people who could be related to Xu Qingsi, there were only two families surnamed Xu in Beijing that she knew.

An old pedantic of the Imperial Observatory, a fat silverfish with six brains and fat intestines.

The old pedantic three generations are in the same house, rooted in Kyoto, and she has seen more or less the children of the clan, and there is no particularly outstanding person.

As for the household...... It's so ugly, Xu Qingsi can't give birth to him, even if it's a side branch, it's unimaginable!

If the two families have nothing to do with each other, in this way, Xu Qingsi's origin is quite worth studying.

Unlike Han Cheng, Han Cheng's weak crown is because the Han family has three dynasties to slaughter the auxiliary, and the first emperor himself said before Han Lao went: Zai Fu is related to the national system, except for Han Lao can not win, now Ziqi has a little merit, and the mantle can be inherited in the future.

Therefore, Han Ziqi was born as a prime minister.

The family is confident, and the heavenly family is also a cronie, even if everyone knows that the shady scenes are determined, others have no temper.

But Xu Qingsi is different, he is also in the age of the crown, but if he does not have the support of the family and has no outstanding achievements, how can he take on this important position? Unless Qi Chenghei is unusually promoted, how can the verbal criticism of the official be vegetarian?

However, looking at Han Cheng's expression now, it doesn't look like it - he doesn't know Xu Qingsi at all.

Take a step back and guess boldly, on the contrary, if this son is the person installed by King Yi, it is also difficult to explain.

Let's not say that Qi Chenghei's edict is difficult to issue, let's just say that Han Cheng knows that he has eyeliner here, how can he come alone without any scruples?

Although Gu Hanyi had doubts at the beginning, she was all focused on Pei Yan, and she didn't think too deeply at that time, but now she calmed down a little and turned around roughly, which was extremely scary.

Xu Qingsi's identity was a little forbidden to be carefully investigated, and he became a complete mystery.

Gu Hanyi looked at the face in front of him, and his hand had stopped at some point, he couldn't guess, once he guessed, his heart tightened slightly, like a long sword hanging above his head.

Xu Qingsi suddenly put down his pen and got up, as if he didn't want to talk to her about this topic, and walked straight out.

Gu Hanyi involuntarily followed out, looking at his back like a thin walker, and walked out of his mind for a while, until he paused: "...... Lord Gu, you first? ”

Gu Hanyi was stunned for a moment, and saw that he turned his head slightly, and his sparse voice brushed his eardrums, revealing half of the handsome and smooth knife lines, and signaled to her the grass house in front of her.

Gu Hanyi went to take a look, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, it was actually the West Pavilion!

Her face turned blue for a moment, is she crazy! Actually came here with Xu Qingsi?

She pondered for a long time and couldn't think of any better reason, so she immediately pushed her body and stared at his face: "Don't seduce me with beauty!"

Then he turned around and walked away in a panic.

Xu Qingsi's eyes were slightly dark, and he suddenly smiled, he understood, Gu Hanyi was ordered by Han Cheng to follow him, so he should have not said much about Han Cheng, otherwise what greeted him in front of him should be a knife edge, not these lame temptations.

Gu Hanyi was irritable but straightforward, and he didn't know how to talk very well, so he just followed him honestly and stared at him.

He was glad to see it happen.

Xu Qingsi walked back quietly, and returned to the study, Gu Hanyi sat cross-legged on the bamboo couch with a gloomy face, the tea cup in her hand was tilted, and the amber juice was a little irritable in her eyes.

Xu Qingsi walked to the front of the case, picked up the white jade porcelain cup unhurriedly, glanced at the messy ink research desk, and smiled faintly.

The clouds and mist of Lushan Mountain were already cold, he deliberately took a sip, and then turned around and walked out, as if he had come to tell Gu Hanyi - I'm leaving, do you want to follow?

He stepped down the small steps to the corridor, and when he turned around, he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye, and Gu Hanyi really followed.

He then walked a few steps slowly and took a closer distance to her: "Master Gu......" He didn't squint, as if he was casually mentioning: "If you are really so interested in me, when you are free, you can take a look at me when you are free." ”

Gu Hanyi's eyebrows twisted slightly: "Who is interested in you?"

She was a little impatient, and when she turned her eyes to him, she saw that Xu Qingsi was serious, and it seemed that she had thought it out after careful consideration, she couldn't help but hesitate, and the ghost made the god change her words again: "When?" ”

Xu Qingsi solemnly said: "When does Master Gu want to?"

Gu Hanyi actually thought about it seriously.

Xu Qingsi will not be able to return to Beijing in a few months, and the most recent one should be to return to Beijing at the end of the year to report on work, so she raised her eyebrows, not sure: "After the year?" ”

Xu Qingsi didn't seem to hold back, he was silent for a moment, and laughed twice with his eyebrows widened.

Gu Hanyi had a feeling of being teased, and he was about to attack angrily, but he heard Xu Qingsi muttering in a low voice and seemed worried: "Lord Gu is so easy to speak, how can it be good to be deceived by someone at that time......"

Gu Hanyi: "? "What nonsense is Xu Qingsi talking about?

She looked a little weird, and as she walked out of the mansion gate together, the vendors outside were three or two horizontal displays, and the Assassin Mansion was three streets away from the downtown area, so the voices of people here have never been boiling.

Xu Qingsi's gentle voice is very clear, low and beautiful like a spring breeze, and there is a hint of banter in it: "Lord Gu doesn't know, my family is more rigid, and I have never been allowed to take a woman home, but whenever I get too close to a woman......"

He intriguingly lengthened his tail note, his eyes glanced lightly to his side, and whispered in a low voice that could not distinguish the truth from the false: "They will give a dowry to others." ”

Gu Hanyi's mind came to mind: ridiculous! She said coldly: "Then didn't Lord Xu have a group of wives and concubines for a long time?" ”

"Nope."

"Huh?"

Xu Qingsi stopped, and sighed lightly: "I have been ...... for so many years Never got too close to a woman. He slowly tilted his head to approach her, Qing Jun's eyebrows and eyes drooped slightly, and he quietly looked into Gu Hanyi's eyes: "Except for Lord Gu." ”

Gu Hanyi looked at him fixedly for a long time, and raised his eyebrows: "I don't believe it." ”

Xu Qingsi didn't care too much, smiled, looked away at the long street, and continued to walk forward.

"Isn't Lord Xu curious?" Gu Hanyi said: "What did Han Ziqi do in Yizhou, as the assassin of Yizhou, he never talked to you, don't you have the slightest doubt in your heart?"

Xu Qingsi raised his eyes and looked at the clouds silently, he was really not curious and had no doubts in his heart, he replied seriously without leaking: "Han Xiang has his own considerations for Han Xiang, if he doesn't say it, how can others ask so much?" ”

Gu Hanyi sneered: "Lord Xu is really open-minded. ”

Xu Qingsi humbly and politely snorted at her, and his face was full of words: "Where, after the award, I am so good."

Gu Hanyi couldn't help but hum and rolled his eyes towards the sky.

Xu Qingsi didn't know where he was going, he traveled all the way, sometimes listening to books in the teahouse, sometimes looking at monkeys on the street, and when he passed by Chen's shop, he brought a box of white jade snow fusi cheese cake by the way, and didn't eat a bite, but he gave it to her.

Such laziness was like a leisurely stroll, which made Gu Hanyi quite impatient, suddenly paused, and asked with a cold expression: "What is Lord Xu doing?" ”

She still had a trace of luck in her heart, thinking that she would not be wandering around the streets with her?

Who knew that Xu Qingsi smiled and replied to her with four words: "Experience the people's feelings." ”

Gu Hanyi's forehead was bruised, wouldn't it just take her for a walk!

As the long street became more and more complicated, he suddenly stopped in front of a fortune-telling stall, and the middle-aged warlock with black hair and black beard had his eyes lit up, and he diligently spread the hexagram bamboo sticks forward: "What does the son want to ask?" ”

Xu Qingsi actually took off his robe and sat down directly, and said casually as if he had nothing to do: "Marriage." ”

The corners of Gu Hanyi's mouth twitched: "Do you believe this?" ”

Xu Qingsi smiled, thousands of words converged into waves under his eyes, and he couldn't break free from the confinement, he said: "Believe." ”

There was once such a person, who walked through the sea of people with a hanging flag, and caught him alone in the flow of thousands of people, and made him believe it upside down.

Gu Hanyi shook his eyebrows and suppressed the impatience in his heart: "I knew this was the case, why didn't I let me calculate it for you?" ”

"Master Gu will still make a living in this discipline?"

"Just talk nonsense, what's so hard about that?"

Think that when she belonged to the Third Division, in order to make meritorious achievements, she helped the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and how many cases did she go out to handle?

How many times has she pretended to be this swaggering charlatan?

Only now that there are frequent hidden dangers around Qi Chenghe, she invited herself into the inner house, and she didn't dare to be sloppy, for fear that something would go wrong, and she rarely came out of the inner court since then.

"Lord Gu really counted?" Xu Qingsi's eyes were scorching, as if he wanted to seek verification, but there seemed to be a trace of indescribable expectation hidden in his eyes staring at her.

"It's too much." Gu Hanyi trembled his eyebrows, and was a little rebellious: "When does Lord Xu want to ask?" ”

“…… A year ago. ”

Gu Hanyi couldn't help but think about it, a year ago, she should have been in Nanling, but there were seven or eight cases of all sizes at that time, and some details were blurred, she didn't care: "I can't remember clearly, there are probably some." ”

Xu Qingsi covered his eyes, looking a little disappointed.

The middle-aged warlock suddenly burst out, "Haha" laughed, He Ran said happily: "The son has a good marriage, and the building near the water gets the moon first, even if the water is turbulent, a small setback is harmless!" ”

He didn't measure the words and didn't know the hexagram, and his empty vernacular tone was quite big, Gu Hanyi couldn't bear to sneer lightly, and thought: I will say this too.

However, seeing Xu Qingsi slowly lift his eyes, the smile that disappeared slowly climbed up his eyebrows, and he actually bowed his head in approval: "-Accurate." ”

Gu Hanyi didn't expect it at all, and immediately laughed, the civil officials were really stunned, and they actually believed this kind of rhetoric? She pursed her lips and stepped forward to put down ten copper plates, out of sight, and walked more than ten meters away to wait.

Xu Qingsi's gaze followed, wondering how Gu Hanyi had always consciously paid for him all the way? Seeing that she raised her eyebrows, she seemed to be a little impatient, so she got up from the fortune-telling booth.

I didn't want the middle-aged warlock to suddenly reach out, grabbed him again, took out a red silk silk from under the case, and handed it to him mysteriously: "I know that the red line is the marriage line, and I see the son as a destined person...... This red line, sell cheaply? ”

Xu Qingsi raised his eyebrows obliquely, and was interested: "How cheap?" ”
