Chapter Ninety-Three: Harboring a Ghost in My Heart

Lu Yao looked back, and saw Lord Zhang, who had a ghost in her heart, running over tremblingly, she raised her eyebrows suspiciously, and asked, "Why is Lord Zhang so panicked, could it be that there is a ghost in his heart?" ”

"Where did the princess speak, how can the official have a clean sleeve?" The pot-bellied man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Speaking of which, the people of Zhang's Mansion seem to be a little strange today, as if they are afraid that Lu Yao will come in, as if they have some unsightly secrets, the housekeeper is in a cold sweat, and now the Lord Zhang in front of him is also sweating profusely.

Lu Yao's gaze moved down, and his gaze fell on the shoes that the man was wearing backwards on the left and right, and coughed dryly: "It's strange, why is Master Zhang's boots worn backwards?" ”

Everyone looked down one after another, and Master Zhang returned the shoes with a "ouch" repeatedly, and said with an embarrassed smile: "It really made the princess laugh, the official was just resting in the room, and I heard that the princess was coming, but it was too late to put on shoes, and in a hurry, I directly wore them backwards hahaha!" ”

"......" Lu Yao smiled politely, but he always felt that things were strange in his heart.

She slowly turned around and glanced at the embarrassed little girl, "Lord Zhang, is this really the newly bought subordinate from your house?" ”

Lord Zhang's face turned pale, his throat rolled, and he hurriedly said, "Yes!" In fact, these things are not the responsibility of the official on weekdays, the yamen is busy with official affairs, I usually leave it to the housekeeper to take care of it, who knows what disobedient waste is bought in, and it disturbs the princess, please forgive me......"

Lu Yao couldn't bear to say: "This child is only over ten years old, right?" It's enough to be a scholar, presumably Master Zhang won't give this kid some rough work to do, right? ”

Master Zhang looked at the little girl with a thief's eyes, and said thoughtfully: "No, no...... Her slippery ......"

Lu Yao listened to the feeling in his heart, and said, "What did Master Zhang say?" ”

"No, nothing!" Master Zhang hurriedly smiled and led Lu Yao to the study, turned around and gritted his teeth at the housekeeper, and reprimanded him compassionately: "Show me these little girls, dare to leak the news, I want your life!" ”

The housekeeper nodded weakly, and said continuously: "Yes, yes, yes!" ”

Lu Yao had already taken a few steps forward, and he couldn't hear the whispers of the two, so he turned around and said, "Master Zhang, why don't you leave?" ”

Master Zhang hurriedly responded, and ran over with a snort, "The next official is to let the housekeeper watch this child, don't let this country girl who doesn't understand the rules be embarrassed!" Princess, please. ”

Lu Yao took a deep look at the little girl with a desperate face, and turned to leave.

Gu Congyuan didn't have time to enter the palace today to report the progress of the mission to the emperor, and no one arrived, but the fold had been submitted quickly, and Gu Ji also vigorously supported Gu Congyuan's move to revitalize the Beitian Courtyard.

"Lord Wang, those children have been settled." Chang Shan was in a happy mood, he almost jumped up when he walked, and he didn't have a straight shape in front of Gu Congyuan.

Gu Congyuan hit the nail on the head and said, "Is there anything that has not been saved?" ”

Chang Shan's mood instantly fell, and he hummed: "Yes, the three children have ......."

"That's it, fortunately, you were able to find the place where Qingfeng Village is located in time, otherwise these children would not even have died." Gu Congyuan sighed and said, "Send more doctors over and try to ensure that they can live a normal life in this life." ”

Chang Shan hurriedly answered, turned around and went to work again.

Gu Cong had just stepped into the room from afar, and saw the children on the bed sitting up one after another, looking at him with fear and excitement.

He could clearly hear the children's whispers: "Look, that's His Royal Highness King Cong who rescued us......

"His Royal Highness King Cong is a hero who saves the world, I heard that he has won a hundred battles on the battlefield and is invincible......"

Tong Yan was unscrupulous, even though his body was damaged, but when he spoke, he still chattered, and Gu Congyuan was a little big when he heard it, he sat on the edge of the bed of a boy with a broken leg, and asked, "You're not afraid of me?" ”

The boy smiled and showed two small white fangs, waved his arms excitedly, and said, "Don't be afraid!" Your Royal Highness is a great benevolent person, and he will not hesitate to risk his life to save us, and we thank you that it is too late! ”

Gu Congyuan was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "...... But your leg is broken, don't you hate me, why didn't you go earlier? ”

The boy spoke with a neutral voice: "Nothing is taken for granted, it is already a great honor for us to treat us like this, so why should we expect you to pay so much for us for no reason?" ”

The children chattered and shouted one against ten, and shouted: "Thank you Second Highness for coming to the rescue, Second Highness is our savior hero!" ”

Gu Congyuan was a little dizzy by the impact of words like "good person" and "hero", and lowered his head and coughed gently, which was actually a little embarrassed.

"Savior hero, let me come and see your demeanor too?" A gentle and smiling female voice suddenly sounded behind her.

Gu Congyuan was stunned, looked back, and said with a smile: "Madame will also make fun of me now." ”

"That's what the kids say." Lu Yao appeared in front of him unconsciously, quietly looking at the man's expression, "Besides, if you do a good deed, do you have a different feeling in your heart?" ”

Seeing that Gu Congyuan, who had always been cold and silent, was blushing slightly at the moment, and was a little uncomfortable being complimented by the children, Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud, she was hoping that Gu Congyuan would eliminate those rebellious thoughts, it seemed that he had been slightly shaken......

"Madame has gone to look for Master Zhang?" Gu Congyuan raised his eyes to look at him, and suddenly asked.

Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, and then nodded and said, "I have found ......" Her expression was mysterious, and she quietly pulled the man's sleeve, "I have something to say, you come out with me." ”

Gu Congyuan was called out of the hospital in a fog, and said in a low voice: "What's so mysterious? ”

Lu Yao looked around and confirmed that there was no one left and right, so he approached and covered his lips with his hand and whispered: "I saw a good-looking girl in Lord Zhang's mansion today......"

Gu Congyuan's jaw raised slightly, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What strange things does Madam want to pick up again?" ”

Lu Yao slapped him in disgust and said, "This is different! The little girl was very young, and her clothes were about to be torn, and she was crying for me to save her. ”

The man said lightly: "The rules of each house are different, and Lord Zhang can't keep it clean if he likes it." ”

"But I always feel that things are delicate, and Lord Zhang and the housekeeper look like thieves." Lu Yao pulled Gu Congyuan, who was walking out, and said with a puzzled face, "Lord Zhang even wears his shoes backwards."

......"

"Lord, princess, the carriage is ready." Xiangxiang stepped forward and arched his hand, "Do you want to go back to Lu's house directly?" ”

Gu Congyuan gently bowed his head and carried the gushing Lu Yao up.

Lu Yao was forcibly stuffed into the carriage, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Are you listening to me?" The stinky man is really a virtue! ”

Gu Congyuan didn't plan to talk, but now he looked at it with a dangerous look, "Madam, besides me, which stinky man is there?" ”

Lu Yao denied it, pouted and said, "I still can't figure it out, why is Lord Zhang ......?"

"What doesn't make sense? Lord Zhang has always been this virtuous, and now he is okay, he knows how to dress like a dog and then come out to meet people, if he was placed in the past, he would not be able to come out naked when he met this king. Gu Congyuan said indifferently, "He has never been formal, or in other words, extremely sloppy." ”

Seeing that Lu Yao was silent, he leaned closer slightly, and asked with a smile, "What is Madame thinking in her head?" ”

Lu Yao hesitated for a while, and said, "Why didn't I see the female dependents in Zhang's mansion, is Lord Zhang married?" ”

"Married." Gu Congyuan thought for a while, and then said, "He and his wife are said to be two little guesses, childhood sweethearts, they tied the knot when they were not very old, and then Zhang Dacai was promoted step by step......"

Lu Yao was stunned, "This adult is still a lover?" ”

Gu Congyuan said with an indifferent expression: "God knows, his wife died unexpectedly at the age of seventeen. ”

"Was it really an accident?" Lu Yao had a bold and dangerous speculation in his heart, and after thinking about it, he swallowed it back into his stomach.

"It is said that he was killed by a drunken maniac, and Lord Zhang cried and grabbed the ground, and it took several months to recover his strength." He flicked the man's forehead slightly, "This is just escaped from Qingfeng Village, don't think nonsense, it's not good for your health." ”

Lu Yao rubbed his forehead and said, "Even though I don't know about Lord Zhang and his wife, I always feel ...... It is useless for the government to buy a young subordinate, Gu Congyuan, you promise me, don't give up easily, okay? ”

The carriage was still for a moment, the last time Lu Yao begged him not to stop, so everyone saw His Royal Highness Gu Er dressed as a man and a woman for the first time, and this time I don't know what Lu Yao is going to make waves again.

Even Gu Congyuan shut up, not daring to answer easily.

"Ahem......" Lu Yao covered his lips in embarrassment and coughed a few times, and said, "That, it was wrong for me to let you wear that dress last time, and I didn't expect it to cause so much trouble, Lord Wang, I wronged you." ”

As soon as Gu Congyuan thought back to those days, his face turned blue, and he gritted his teeth and said, "...... It's good that you know you've wronged me. ”

"But, but!" Lu Yao held the man's hand tightly, and said sternly, "This time is different, this time it is a matter of the imperial court's official office, it should be an example for the people, if you do something unsightly behind your back, how can the Tiansheng Dynasty obey the public?" ”

He lowered his eyes to look at people and said, "Madame is too naΓ―ve, there are so many officials who are not as good as beasts behind the scenes, how can you and I be able to compete?" ”

"Even so, you can't let them be arrogant, can you?" Lu Yao saw that this person had no intention of helping, so he still insisted.

The carriage slowly stopped, Gu Congyuan's voice was disturbed by the noise outside, and he said, "Okay, I'll promise you for my husband." ”
