Chapter Eighty-Three: The Covenant

Xiao Xun's eyes looking at Gu Xun were extremely complicated, Shangshu Province Shangshu ordered Pei Fengzhi to stand on his side, but now Pei Fengzhi's right servant shot was quite close to the Lu family's father and son, so it was very easy to make people suspect that Gu Xun was Xiao Ying's informant in Shangshu Province, not to mention that Xiao Xun was already suspicious.

Gu Xun and Xiao Xun looked at each other, and their hearts were also uneasy, Shangshu Province and Linchuan Wang's party have always been incompatible, as the right servant of Shangshu Province, he should avoid suspicion, and now he came to congratulate Lu Ji on his birthday, he should have been careful to avoid people's eyes, but he didn't want to, he actually met Xiao Zhen here, wouldn't he ask for trouble?

"Gu Xun, what a coincidence that you came," Xiao Ye saw the tense atmosphere at the moment, but said cool words.

When Gu Xun heard Xiao Ye's voice, he was pulled back into his thoughts, so he turned around and saluted Xiao Ye again, and said, "I've seen His Royal Highness King Wuling." ”

Xiao Ye pretended to be slightly drunk and waved his hand casually.

At this time, Xiao Ying was also helped out by the two maids, Yu Yuangui was still close behind, and as soon as Xiao Ying came out, he said in a weird manner: "Gu Xun, if this king remembers correctly, you are from Shangshu Province, right?" ”

As he spoke, he also glanced at Xiao Xun intentionally or unintentionally, these two brothers, you and I are saying a word, it seems that they are saying cool things, but in fact, they are sowing discord and hinting to Xiao Xun that Gu Xun has different intentions.

Gu Xun had an idea, and he shirked his intentions, and said respectfully: "Exactly, Xia Guan came to send a congratulatory gift to Lu Fujun today on the order of his mother," he said, and pointed to the two entourages following behind him.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Huilin hurriedly walked over to relieve Gu Xun, and said with a smile: "It's okay for people to arrive, what kind of congratulatory gifts do you give, when did your mother have such a separate relationship with our family." ”

As he spoke, he pushed Gu Xun to sit down in front of the empty dining table, and beckoned the maid to pour wine, he whispered to Gu Xun: "Today is a family banquet, they are all outsiders, don't pay attention to them." ”

"Thank you Uncle Lu Shi," Gu Xun bowed his head, and Lu Huilin went to greet Xiao Ying again.

"It's disgusting partisanship."

Lu Qiwei's crisp voice came from behind him, Gu Xun looked back at her, smiled at her, and called softly: "Sister Qiwei, I haven't seen you for a few days." ”

Lu Qiwei came over with a wine jug, sat next to Gu Xun familiarly, poured wine for him, and continued: "Grandfather's sixtieth birthday, happily hold a banquet, just invite some familiar relatives and friends to come over, but I also recruited a few of them, and forcibly mixed up the birthday banquet." ”

Gu Xun sighed lightly, "The real partisan struggle is far bloodier than what you see. ”

"Brother Zigeng said it, but that Sister Xie?"

Gu Xun was silent, and in Lu Qiwei's eyes, he was already acquiescing.

Lu Qiwei suddenly pointed in the direction of Huan Ling and Xie Zheng, and quipped: "Brother Zigeng, there is a sister over there, who has been staring at you all the time, I'm afraid I don't like you?" ”

"Sister?" Gu Xun looked around for a long time, except for the man over there, it was the maid in the house, where did the sister come from.

"It's the one who sits on the right hand of the prince."

"He? He didn't ......" Gu Xun took a closer look before he recognized Xie Zhenglai, and said happily: "It's her ......"

Gu Xun recognized Xie Zheng, and was about to pass now, he was about to get up, Lu Qi hurriedly pressed him, and whispered: "Since people are women pretending to be men, they must have her difficulties, Brother Zigeng passed like this, how do you know that it is not harmful to her?" ”

"That's right," Gu Xun nodded, and Lu Qiwei immediately asked tentatively: "Brother Zigeng, can you introduce me to her?" ”

"But I don't know who she is......" Gu Xun frowned involuntarily, but Lu Qiwei was surprised, "You don't even know who she is, and you're already tempted by others?" ”

Lu Qiwei and Gu Xun have always played since they were children, and they already know his heart well.

"You can't talk nonsense," Gu Xun's heart was pounding, Lu Qiwei's words really touched his heartstrings, it turned out that he was already tempted by that Xie Niangzi?

At that time, Xie Zheng also looked at Gu Xun from time to time, but when he looked back at him, he was all thinking about talking and laughing with Lu Qiwei, Xie Zheng was unhappy, so he immediately got up and said coldly to Huan Ling: "I'm not feeling well, I'm going home." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Huan Ling called her a "Deyin", but she couldn't stop her, so she had to say goodbye to Lu Ji and hurriedly follow her away.

Gu Xun hadn't spoken to her this time, but now that he saw her leaving in a hurry, he was also anxious, he immediately stood up, wanting to stop her, but he didn't know what she was called at this moment.

He sat down abruptly, and wanted to ask her what her name was today, but who knew that he missed it again.

"I know who she is," Lu Qi looked at Gu Xun slightly, with a smile in his eyes.

Gu Xun was pleasantly surprised: "Who is she?" ”

"I heard my father call her Xie Qishi."

"Xie Qishi?" Gu Xun frowned and exclaimed: "Then I will know what her name is!" Her name is Xie Zheng, and she will be Xie Zheng! ”

Xie Qishi, who is famous in the government and the opposition, who doesn't know? A few days ago, when he heard someone mention this, he specially inquired about the origin of this person, but, who would have thought that this Xie Qishi was actually his daughter!

He didn't expect that the lady Xie she longed for would be Xie Qishi!

Gu Xun was overjoyed, drank three glasses of wine in a row, Lu Qiwei couldn't help laughing, made fun of him, and got up to leave.

At that time, Xie Zheng had returned to the Hou Mansion, she hid in the room, holding Gu Xun's folding fan and watching it for a long time, her mind was full of the scene of Gu Xun and the little lady laughing and playing at Lu Ji's birthday banquet, she panicked in her heart, thinking that Gu Xun would not have made a private agreement with the little lady for life, right?

"No! Absolutely not! ”

She thought about it for a while, and then called Yuzhi to take the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and skillfully copied the snow scene of the covered Zhou Mountain on the folding fan on the silver paper, and then wanted to inscribe "Willing to enjoy it with Lang Jun", but Mao Ying thought about it, if she really wrote like this, I am afraid that Gu Qilang would think that she was not subtle enough......

Xie Zheng sighed lightly, finally put down Mao Ying, and when the ink was dry, he rolled up the painting, handed it to Yuzhi, and instructed: "Send this painting to the Gu family, and be sure to hand it over to Gu Qilang." ”

Yuzhi agreed, and she told her thousands of times: "Don't let the county marquis know." ”

I hope that stupid piece of wood can guess the meaning of her painting.

It was getting late, Gu Xun returned to the house, Yuzhi happened to be here, and when she saw that Gu Xun was about to enter the house, she called: "Gu Langjun!" ”

Gu Xun recognized her, and when he looked back and saw that it was her, he was secretly happy in his heart, so he walked towards her, and at that time, Yuzhi also walked up to him, and directly handed over the painting, and said expressionlessly: "This is given to you by my wife." ”

After Yuzhi finished speaking, he left, Gu Xun didn't care about her attitude, but opened the painting with joy, and saw that the painting was a copy of his snow scene on Zhoushan Mountain, and he didn't understand Xie Zheng's meaning, but he praised it vigorously: "I didn't expect Xie Niangzi's painting to be so exquisite, but it is not inferior to Brother Tanwei!" ”

"What is Brother Qi looking at?"

Gu Yu was like a wandering spirit, and appeared behind Gu Xun unconsciously, so startled that Gu Xun hurriedly put away the painting, and replied vaguely: "No... It's nothing. ”

"Nothing? Nothing really? Gu Xun saw Gu Xun put his hands behind his back, so he wanted to go around behind him to see what was going on, Gu Xun just circled with him at first, and then strode directly towards the mansion, hiding from him, and said with a sneer: "What can I have." ”
