Chapter 0247 - Draw Inferences
Three days later, it was noon.
After a false accusation in front of the restaurant three days ago, the business of Kowloon Court has not decreased, but has become more and more prosperous.
The carriages lining up in front of the door can be hundreds of meters away every day, and even the business of the Silk Village and Danchunfang opposite the restaurant has also risen.
In the past three days, Yan and Philip have been busy non-stop, moving from one dark point to another, following the clue that the young man secretly killed the household servant, not only did he find out the network of all the officials of Duanmu Country clearly, but he also firmly pinched the evidence of the crimes committed by these officials over the years, which was enough to punish the nine clans together.
At this time, Gu Youlan and Baili Xiangxue had moved to the headquarters of Jiulong Pavilion in Peijing, a Qijin mansion located in the most prosperous and lively area of Changming Street, after the arrangement of Yang An, the shopkeeper of Jiulong Pavilion.
Of course, the back of this mansion is the shop of the Jiulong Pavilion Restaurant, not only to facilitate the entry and exit of Gu Youlan, but also from the words secretly instructed by the lord, the three caves of the cunning rabbit.
Although Yan and Philip are busy, Gu Youlan and Baili Xiangxue are in the huge mansion, and they can't be leisurely anymore.
Under the peach tree, next to the apricot blossoms, the hexagonal pavilion is secretly fragrant, a song of the piano is raised, and the song is accompanied by dancing and magenta makeup......
Gu Youlan, who is still dressed as a rich son, is lazily reclining on the beauty couch under the peach tree, her beautiful phoenix eyes are half-open and half-closed, and her high-tied ink hair is wantonly scattered on her narrow shoulders.
In the hexagonal pavilion five meters away, Baili Xiangxue was wearing a pink dress, her long hair was loosely draped behind her head, and only a dazzling golden peony was inserted in a high bun.
The white hands were as white as jade flicking their fingers on the sandalwood lacquer-dyed guqin, and the golden peony swayed with her smile, shining with dazzling light.
"Master, this year's lychee is really meaty, juicy, and fragrant in your mouth!" A young woman of about fifteen years old who was kneeling beside Gu Youlan was gently peeling the shell of the lychee, while looking at this handsome and young young master like waves.
"Hmm", Gu Youlan just closed her eyes and answered vaguely, although she didn't say anything more to the woman in front of her, but the woman was still like a deer bumping, her cheeks red.
Just as the Baili Xiangxue in the pavilion was about to play a song, a black bird fluttered its wings and circled in the garden for a week, and finally landed on the small table next to Gu Youlan.
"Ah, where did this little crow fly, so petite, so cute, master, you see that there is a wisp of white on its forehead!" At the sight of the black bird, the young woman suddenly screamed.
When the black bird heard that this wild girl who didn't know where it came from, she actually called it a little crow, and immediately tilted her little head, and her black eyes rolled a big one.
"Oh, master, you see that this little crow seems to understand me, alas, it still rolls me unhappily!" The woman cried out in even greater amazement, as if she had discovered something magical.
"Hmm", Gu Youlan opened one eye, and responded casually, and the arrogant appearance of cherishing words like gold made the young woman feel a little more admiring.
Lazily snorted a hache, glanced at the black bird, and then looked at the Baili Xiangxue in the pavilion, and saw the brocade in his hand in his boring fan, Gu Youlan frowned, and said coldly to the young woman.
"Okay, there's nothing for you here, you can accompany the eldest lady back to the room to rest!" After that, he stretched his waist wantonly.
Although the young woman was very reluctant to leave, the young master's words had already been spoken, and she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to hold hands and give a salute, and left with a hundred miles of Xiangxue in small steps.
Seeing that there was no one else in the garden, Gu Youlan secretly made an enchantment, and then beckoned to the black bird.
With a slight fluctuation of spiritual power, the black bird instantly turned into a handsome young man dressed in black: "Black Feather See Master!" ”
"Is there a letter from the fourth brother?" Gu Youlan swept away the previous laziness and asked in a straight voice.
"His Majesty the Emperor didn't have a letter this time, just asked his subordinates to give you a message, saying that it was a matter of Duanmu Country, everything was up to the master's arrangement, if you needed anything or who, you just spoke!" Hei Yu lowered his head and respectfully brought the words of the hundred miles of death.
Gu Youlan nodded, then frowned again: "That's all?" ”
Hei Yu was a little stunned when he heard this, and then patted his forehead vigorously: "Master, my subordinates should be damned, there is one more thing." His Majesty said that Princess Ranxia of Gongxi Kingdom will arrive in Baili Country in half a month, and if you are in a hurry, he hopes that you can go back to attend his wedding! ”
Gu Youlan breathed a sigh of relief and stood up: "I just said, the fourth brother is about to get married, why don't you give me a letter!" ”
As soon as Hei Yu heard this, he immediately knew that he was derelict in his duties, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee with a guilty look on his face: "Master, it's all subordinates who are not good, and they forget such a big thing, and they all blame their subordinates for thinking that the wild girl just now called me a little crow!" ”
"Poof", Gu Youlan covered her mouth and smiled: "Hei Yu, you are clumsy this time, that girl is not a wild girl, she is the eyeliner inserted by the second prince of Duanmu Kingdom!" ”
"What?" Hei Yu immediately roared in amazement: "Master, since she is eyeliner, why do you still keep her?" ”
Gu Youlan turned around slightly, twisted a thumb-sized cyan peach from the peach tree, and said coldly while holding it in her hand and looking at it carefully.
"Black Feather, let me ask you, if you're an eyeliner, do you want to be in the light or in the dark?"
Black Feather touched his nose, and replied immediately without thinking about it: "If I want to be an eyeliner, of course I want to be in the dark!" ”
"Yes, then you think about it in a different position, if you are the master and I am eyeliner, do you want me to be in the light or in the dark?" Gu Youlan turned around and asked playfully while rubbing the peach in her hand.
"Oh, master, I understand, if you put that wild girl in the light, it's naturally better than her in the dark!" Hei Yu rubbed his nose vigorously, and suddenly realized with a face: "By the way, master, there is still something unknown to his subordinates, why would the second prince of Duanmu Country install eyeliner in our Dongfang Mansion?" ”
Gu Youlan threw the crushed peach on the ground casually, took out a brocade and wiped her hands, her dark eyes thoughtful.
"Hei Yu, since the second prince of Duanmu Country can insert his eyeliner into Peijing's Dongfang Mansion, it means that he has become suspicious of our Dongfang Mansion that came out of thin air. The second is that his wings and wrists are enough to balance each other with the crown prince of the current dynasty! ”
"As for the third, I guess he wants us to know his abilities and take the initiative to attach ourselves to him!" After the words fell, Gu Youlan picked up a fresh lychee on the small table and handed it to Hei Yu, and continued.
"There is another possibility, he already suspects that our Peijing's Dongfang Mansion and the Baili Kingdom's Dongfang Mansion belong to the same family, so he will definitely guess that this Dongfang Mansion is related to the Empress Dowager of the Baili Kingdom!"
Hei Yu listened to Gu Youlan's inference, while neatly peeling the lychee, and was just about to put the peeled lychee in his mouth, when he suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly asked.
"Master, listen to you, my subordinates have a different point of view, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"
"Oh?" Gu Youlan's eyes widened with joy, and her eyes seemed to be about to penetrate the black feather: "Good boy, do you also know that you want to use your brains to help your master share his worries?" Yes, let's hear it! ”
After receiving the master's appreciation, Hei Yu smiled embarrassedly: "Master, you just guessed that the second prince of Duanmu Kingdom hopes that we can know his ability, so that we can take the initiative to attach ourselves to him." Actually, we can also think about it from another angle, what if the second prince knows the true identity of our Dongfang Mansion, and he wants to take the initiative to seek our help in order to compete for the throne? ”
Gu Youlan heard Hei Yu talk eloquently, and instantly felt enlightened: "Yes, why didn't I think of this layer?" Good boy, you can draw inferences! ”
Receiving the master's praise again, Hei Yu scratched his ears even more embarrassedly: "The subordinates can share the worries of the master, which is the blessing that Hei Yu has cultivated for several generations!" ”
Looking at the flush on Hei Yu's face that extended to his ears, as if his little brother had just grown up, Gu Youlan nodded with satisfaction: "Well, my Black Feather has really grown up, I'm very happy!" ”
Suddenly, there was a new proposal in her heart, which instantly made her heart jump: "Black Feather, do you want to stop doing such a simple job as a messenger in the future?" ”
As soon as Hei Yu heard his master's words, with a throbbing in his heart, his chest jumped up involuntarily: "Lord, master, you mean ......"
Gu Youlan looked at Hei Yu with encouraging eyes: "Are you willing?" ”
"Yes, Hei Yu is willing, Hei Yu is willing to share the worries of the master!" Hei Yu knelt on one knee again in excitement, and his lips trembled slightly because he was too excited.
"Hmm!" Nodding happily, Gu Youlan secretly thought for a moment, and then spoke: "Black Feather, your Eagle Falcon clan, do you have any clansmen who can take over your letter?" ”
"Yes, master, don't say that our Eagle Falcon Clan, even many of the same kind of Feather Clan in the space at this moment can serve as messengers!"
Hearing Hei Yu's words, Gu Youlan blinked in surprise: "The same kind of Feather Clan in the space? How did I not know? Could it be that I haven't been in space for a long time? ”
Thinking of this moment, Gu Youlan suddenly felt that not only had he slackened his cultivation a lot for a while, but he had not entered the space for a while.
He patted his forehead hatefully, and made a few knots with his hands again, adding a small illusion to the outer layer of the original enchantment.
Immediately took Black Feather's hand, and a dodge entered the long-lost space.
