Chapter 226: Sympathy

Gu Qing looked at Song Xinyi's back, and didn't know if it was an illusion, in a trance, Song Xinyi was like a fairy in the sky, stepping on the afterglow of the sunset and slowly moving away.

Gu Qing shook his head vigorously before he recovered from this feeling.

"This woman can really be regarded as a country and a city."

At night, the study of the General's Mansion was brightly lit.

The lamps were scurrying in the lampshade, and on the pear blossom wood desk, there was an old chess game, and Gu Qing, who was sitting at the table, was watching a chess game in a daze.

Just when the general was in a daze, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in." Gu Qing didn't even raise his head, still lowering his brows.

The door was pushed open, and a small servant entered.

"Young master, your chess addiction has been committed again, it's almost time, young master, go to sleep."

"I can't solve this chess game, I can't sleep, Bai Fan, give me tea."

Bai Fan shook his head and sent the tea over.

Gu Qing took the teacup, took a sip slowly, and beckoned: "Bai Fan, come and see how this bureau is broken." ”

Bai Fan answered and walked over, although he had never learned chess, but he stayed by Gu Qing's side all the year round, and he was also familiar with it, and his level was much more powerful than ordinary Jianghu chess players.

Bai Fan looked at it for a while, and then said: "The sunspot is three steps behind, top the white, the white son will inevitably be angry, and the sunspot will be close to the eldest son......"

Bai Fan said for a long time, until he finished the whole chess game, Gu Qing nodded slightly, obviously very satisfied.

It was only then that Bai Fan reacted, and glanced at Gu Qing strangely: "Young Master, how could you not solve such a simple chess game?" ”

Gu Qing laughed.

"Come on, come on, then look at this." As he spoke, Gu Qing brought the chessboard and set up a daytime chess game.

Bai Fan looked at the chess game, and his eyes lit up: "Young master, this game of chess is wonderful, young master, where did this chess game come from?" ”

In front of Gu Qing's eyes, the fairy-like cold figure flashed, and he said slowly: "Today I played against someone, but I was beaten without the power to parry, and I wrote down this game, and then I thought hard but couldn't break it, do you have any ideas?" ”

He remembered the game with Song Xinyi in the Imperial Garden today, and smiled unconsciously.

This afternoon, in addition to talking, they also played chess for a while.

Bai Fan pondered for a while, and commented: "This chess method is light and smart, weird and changeable, I ...... Can't figure it out. ”

"Alas," Gu Qing sighed lightly, "This person is really a celestial." ”

"That's right, White Sail." Gu Qing seemed to suddenly react to something, and said quickly to Bai Fan, "You will help me find out who she is at dawn tomorrow." ”

Bai Fan glanced at Gu Qing strangely.

"Young Master...... You're ......."

"Don't ask so much, just look it up."

Bai Fan said with a wry smile: "Young Master, you didn't tell me anything, how can I check." ”

Gu Qing was slightly stunned, and then he reacted, he didn't know anything, how could he check this?

Thinking that there was no clue at all, Gu Qing didn't know why he was a little irritable, and he was so anxious that he wandered around the house.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Bai Fan's head, and he said to Gu Qing, who was in a hurry: "Young master, I know how to check, I think young master, you still remember that place, you don't have to worry, I promise, you can find out within three days." ”

When Gu Qing heard this, his face was happy, and then he seemed to think of something, and said to Bai Fan in a deep voice: "The owner of that place has a very strange temper, ask him to make a move, then you have to be more careful." "Book it

After that, Gu Qing thought for a while, spread the paper and studied the ink, and between the waves of his hand, a lifelike portrait was presented on the rice paper, and the person in the painting was Song Xinyi, who was playing chess with Gu Qing this evening.

Early the next morning.

Bai Fan took the chess set and came to the bamboo pavilion. A slight cool breeze blew across Bai Fan's cheeks, very comfortable, Bai Fan was playing a chess game, but no one came.

A whole day passed like this, and Bai Fan didn't even see a single figure, but he seemed to have thought of this result a long time ago, and he didn't show frustration, but seemed to know something, and became more confident.

Bai Fan thought for a while, took out the portrait given to it by Gu Qing from his arms, glanced at it, and walked towards the largest street in the capital.

Soon, Bai Fan turned a few corners and dodged into a shop.

The shop was dilapidated, with a thick layer of dust on the floor and cobwebs around the room. On several rows of old shelves, there are a bunch of miscellaneous gadgets.

The environment here made Bai Fan frown, although he was only a small servant in the General's Mansion, the environment here was too bad.

He really didn't know why such a shrewd person in this store would be so negligent.

As soon as the "shopkeeper" entered the store, Bai Fan said in a deep voice.

"Hey...... Come on, what do you want to buy? The shopkeeper stood up from behind the counter and kicked up a cloud of dust.

Bai Fan unconsciously took a few steps back and fanned the flying dust with his hand

Bai Fan said unhurriedly: "An oil lamp." ”

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he said in a deep voice: "Come with me." ”

In a room in the shop, Bai Fan and the shopkeeper sat opposite each other

"Are you sure you want to check?" The shopkeeper said in a deep voice.

Bai Fan hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly.

Two days later, Bai Fan came back, but his face was a little ugly, and he reached out and handed a piece of paper to Gu Qing.

Gu Qing took the piece of paper and looked at it, and his face suddenly sank.

"You mean, she's Concubine Ning?" Gu Qing's voice couldn't help but raise a few points, "How is this possible!" ”

Bai Fan suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Qing.

"Young master, you won't be ......"

"Nothing will happen!" Gu Qing's voice suddenly became cold, and Bai Fan was so frightened that he immediately closed his mouth.

Just as Bai Fan reacted and was about to say something, Gu Qing had already returned to the room with a cold face.

That night, the study of the General's Mansion was still brightly lit, but the only difference was that this time it was Gu Qing who was alone in a daze with a game of chess.

The lights in the study were flickering, and Gu Qing was holding a chess piece and tapping lightly on the chessboard as he did that day, which had the meaning of "making an appointment not to come for the night and a half".

One light, one person, one game of chess. Gu Qing sat stunned all night.

The next day, Gu Qing walked out of the study with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

"Young Master, what are you...... What's wrong?"

Gu Qing shook his head slightly, signaling that Bai Fan was fine, and muttered, "The chess game, I've solved it." ”

However, what can be done if he is unlocked, it is known that he is Concubine Ning. is not destined, the two can not see each other again.

Gu Qing looked at the leisurely fluttering clouds in the sky. seems to have comprehended a truth: everything in the world is cloudy. In a person's life, the people they meet may not be fateful, even if the two sympathize with each other, I may not give them the opportunity to have a long talk.

He sighed, the sorrow in his eyes palpable.
