Chapter 8 Let's have a meal
It's a pity that there are many things in the world that do not fulfill people's wishes.
Take the matter of this killer as an example, Gu Nanqin received a letter from Xu Yuanzheng soon after half a month, saying that the kung fu of these killers was all outside the door, and there was no source at all, which made Gu Nanqin dumbfounded.
Is it possible to be plotted for such a vain? Gu Nanqin bit the pen and kicked his legs, half-gripped and half-leaned on the chair, and a pair of eyebrows and eyes as moving as autumn water had already wrinkled.
"What are you thinking, Your Highness Princess?" Ying Sleeve saw Gu Nanqin alone in the study, staring at a letter for a long time in a daze, and couldn't help but quietly ask Xiao Zi'an.
Xiao Zi was silent, looking at Gu Nanqin's eyes a little complicated, but he patiently explained to Yingsleeve: "...... It must be related to the last investigation. ”
Ying Sleeve suddenly realized.
Although this Xiao Zi'an is from a humble background, in terms of understanding Gu Nanqin's mind, he can be regarded as the first person in the entire princess palace, and even Yingsleeve, who grew up with the princess since he was a child, may not have him to understand the princess's thoughts.
In fact, it stands to reason that it is naturally not a good thing for people to talk about the master, but Xiao Zi'an can be regarded as a coincidence.
This sleeve was originally a first-class palace maid in front of the princess, and the princess liked it very much, so this question naturally had to be answered. So Xiao Zi'an just did this, and gave a mock answer, which can be regarded as giving Yingsleeve a direction, but in fact, he did not reveal any substantive information to her.
It's just that the sadness on Xiao Zi'an's face only increases with the princess's sadness. Looking at the princess like this, it should be that Lord Xu Yuanzheng did not find out the origin of several killers.
Xiao Zi'an secretly pinched the saber at his waist, his cold eyebrows and eyes drooped, as if he was gritting his teeth: no matter how the princess gives orders in the future, he must follow her to act, and he must not let her be left alone.
"Sleeves, help me change my clothes." Gu Nanqin thought about it, and decided to do the more important thing at the moment first-check the little emperor's homework, and try to extract some information from the little emperor's mouth by the way.
Yingsleeve, who was standing at the door, immediately responded and came in: "Your Highness, where are you going?" ”
"Tianlu Pavilion." Gu Nanqin glanced at the sun outside, "It should be about to go down, right?" Just go to the emperor's study for lunch. ”
Yingsleeve almost didn't throw the jewelry box he was holding on the ground: Dare you even think about the food of the saint?
Gu Nanqin still looked leisurely and lazy, as if she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this matter. As usual, he pointed to two simple vermilion hairpins, but there were more jade inlays and pendant beads than a few days ago.
Yingsleeve sighed softly, but still tied her hair in a bun, but her heart was even more worried: because she was not married, even if the princess's headdress was simpler, no one would say anything. It's just that if there is a horse master in the future, this daughter's headdress will not be used, and when the time comes, she will be dressed in gold and silver and inlaid with pearls and jade, and her Royal Highness will not be so angry that she will cry and grab the ground?
Gu Nanqin didn't know what Yingsleeve was thinking, but she just happily played with a jade pendant in her palm, on which the phoenix pattern was carved vividly, which was one of the relics left to her by the queen mother back then.
Other than that, there wasn't much left of the queen mother. Because the new emperor ascended the throne, most of the relics of the first emperor and the first queen were buried, and even the personal jade pendant of the queen mother was specially ordered by King Xiaoming to be deducted and left for Gu Nanqin as a souvenir.
Gu Nanqin's eyebrows and eyes were a little gentle, and the corner of his eyes glanced at the thin figure standing at the door, Xiao Zi'an was also the personal guard left by his father and queen mother, and he did not belong to the position of the inner guard, but just followed him. Speaking of which, he is the same year as himself, and he is eighteen this year, should he also find a girl from a good family to marry?
Ying sleeves were skillful, and soon changed a full set of decent makeup and hair for Gu Nanqin, Gu Nanqin walked with her head suffocated while pedaling embroidered shoes, while thinking about these things.
Coincidentally, today Gu Nanqin was heading towards Tianlu Pavilion, and he happened to run into the next dynasty.
Several officials were talking about something as they walked, their faces ugly, sometimes even slightly emotional, and even their voices were two points louder.
It seems that there is another quarrel today. King Xiaoming has always disliked Gu Nanqin's contact with courtiers, saying that it is easy to attract criticism from the people when harem women interfere in politics. Although Gu Nanqin is not a well-behaved material, he also has a little gratitude to this King Xiaoming, after all, when the ministers forced the palace, King Xiaoming came forward to give advice to the first emperor, which is why Gu Yongde is now the emperor.
After thinking about it slightly, Gu Nanqin still stopped his pace, dodged and hid behind a red wall, just waiting for the courtiers to come out.
It's just that with such a rare opportunity, how could Gu Nanqin be willing to just hide behind the wall? With a slight hint of cunning on his face, Gu Nanqin quietly followed the root of the wall to take a closer look at the faces of the courtiers.
Since the person who saved him that day recognized him, there was a good chance that he was one of these courtiers.
Although Gu Nanqin is face blind, the peerless appearance of that person has only seen it once, and Gu Nanqin can never forget it.
As long as this person goes to court today, Gu Nanqin will naturally have the confidence to recognize this person. As long as he could see the clothes and clothes and official hat that person was wearing, Gu Nanqin could roughly guess the person's official position and name.
It's just that this Gu Nanqin was almost blinded, and he didn't see anyone who looked alike.
Not even, there is no one with a similar body.
It's strange, could it be that the person is not an official of the DPRK and China? The age doesn't seem to be very big, and it's not impossible to be the heir of a courtier's family. Gu Nanqin sighed softly, and was about to walk towards Tianlu Pavilion, but suddenly saw a group of people arguing about something.
Gu Nanqin's eyes hurt just now, and now he rubbed it gently, and looked over there carefully with great curiosity, but saw that they were not arguing about anything, but more like they were talking about something around one person.
And the person standing in it, dressed in ink and with extraordinary appearance, if it weren't for the crowd so crowded that he couldn't see his face clearly, Gu Nanqin would almost feel that this person was the "pink skeleton" who saved him that day.
It's just that these people didn't notice Gu Nanqin in the corner, so naturally they didn't say anything, so they just cared about nagging around this person, making Gu Nanqin more and more unable to see the face of the person in the middle.
The look of frustration on his face flashed, Gu Nanqin was a little amused by his persistence, but he still shook his head and turned around and decided to choose another path.
At this moment, Jiang Li, who was in the center of the crowd, seemed to look back with some sense, but only saw Gu Nanqin, who was dressed in green clothes, swaying lightly in his hair, walking through the corner with his back on his back, and he couldn't see it again for a moment.
Jiang Li couldn't help laughing twice, and several officials who were arguing next to him were stunned when they heard this, and their faces were full of inexplicability.
