Approaching Tianxiang Pavilion, the excitement has dispersed. When Gu Changming entered, those officials had already recognized him and would not stop anyone at all. He didn't need to ask to know where to find Sun Youxiang.

Passing through the lobby and the corridor, by the dry well in the backyard, Sun Youxiang moved two bamboo chairs and sat down to drink tea. Gu Changming curled his lips and smiled, this look was like the master of Sun he saw when he first saw him, and he didn't worry about the trivial things around him. He walked over in three or two steps and called out to Lord Sun.

Sun Youxiang pointed to the bamboo chair beside him: "Gu Gongzi, sit." ”

Gu Changming lifted his robe and sat down, really in a dignified posture. There was brewed tea on the small table, and Sun Youxiang poured a full cup and handed it to him: "Who would have thought that in such a well, I can sit on five thousand taels of gold with a sip of tea." His face was gentle, and he was even more transparent to see through the world.

"Tomorrow at the time of the unitary, someone will come to bring gold. After I leave, will I still be able to live a stable life in Quyang County? Sun Youxiang didn't know whether to ask Gu Changming or himself, and slowly drank a cup of tea, "This stability doesn't look stable." ”

"Master Sun, it is impossible to be an official without a moment's difference, so you don't have to take it too seriously." Gu Changming drank a cup of tea with him, "I have already handed over Xiaofeng to Miss Liu to take care of, if Lord Sun wants to find out who is playing gold, after three or five days, he can detain people for interrogation." ”

"You said that she came to me at great risk to deliver a letter, and I still have to torture her? Since she has such a character, she will definitely not tell the person behind her, otherwise who would want to leave her behind, she will definitely leave with her life. Sun Youxiang thought clearly, "Although she is a young girl, I have interrogated her strictly for her official position, and I can't do it." ”

Gu Changming continued to drink tea in silence, only to hear Sun Youxiang say alone: "Shangguan knows that there is not much hindrance. The gold is delivered from these hands of mine, and I am only a transit. If the gold is there, I'm not wrong. So why should I embarrass this girl? ”

Gu Changming knew that Sun Youxiang was a jealous and hateful person, even if there had been no homicide in Quyang County for more than ten years. Who has such courage and courage to keep a peaceful side? He thought of the three or two sentences his father had mentioned about Sun Youxiang. At that time, he was not afraid of the powerful, and he obviously had a good official career, but he would rather lie dormant in such a small county town, and before he knew it, most of his life had passed.

When Dai Guozi came over, he saw the two sitting opposite each other, and there was an atmosphere between the two in the breeze that no one else could interfere. He stood far away, his feet couldn't step forward, and he always felt that once there were more people, it would destroy the harmonious tacit understanding.

Sun Youxiang left six people behind and continued to guard the door of Tianxiang Pavilion, and the rumors outside came and went quickly, and soon disappeared.

Gu Changming got good medicine from Lao Qiu and sent it to Liu Zhuxue. Liu Zhuxue was originally lying sickly, but now she has to take care of the seriously injured Xiaofeng, and most of her spirit has recovered, and she looks bright and delicate. When she came out to open the door for Gu Changming, she glanced behind him twice: "You two have never been able to weigh the scales, why are you the only ones coming?" ”

"I met Dai Guozi only a few hours before you. He's a serious official and has serious things to do, not as casual as me. Gu Changming handed over the medicine given by Lao Qiu, "It said that it can remove the scar, you can try it for her when you go back." ”

"Little Phoenix, Gu Gongzi has come to see you." Liu Zhuxue turned around and called, "You have to know how powerful he is, there is nothing to be ashamed of planting in his hands, and I can't beat him." ”

"You two get along tacitly, isn't her name Xiaofeng?" Gu Changming always cared about the difference between men and women, standing at the door and talking but not going in.

"Her name is actually Phoenix, and she was going to be a singer, so she temporarily changed her name to Xiaofeng." Liu Zhuxue let go of half of the door, "She really wants to run, I won't let her run." ”

"Listen to Lord Sun's meaning, there is no need to interrogate her, let her recuperate with peace of mind." After Gu Changming finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Gu Gongzi." Liu Zhuxue called out to him, "Little Phoenix asked why you wanted to save her?" ”

"It's the same reason as when she went back and sent a letter to Master Sun." Gu Changming thought that it was indeed Sun Youxiang's words as he walked, and he always felt that he had the intention of retiring.

Sure enough, the next day, Sun Youxiang handed over five thousand taels of gold from Tianxiang Pavilion, a lot of money. When he returned to the yamen, he wrote the document of resignation and submitted it in time, only waiting for the approval of the official to send a new official over.

Sun Youxiang summoned Gu Dai and Lao Qiu, Lao Qiu, and a few cronies of Lao Quan to talk about the matter. How can Dai Guozi be willing: "My lord, this is absolutely unacceptable, how can there be no adults in Quyang County." Where are the documents for resignation and where they were sent from, I will go and recover them. He thought that his feet might not be fast enough, so he pushed Gu Changming, "You help chase the paperwork back, it's too late!" ”

"Xiaoguo is still like a child, when will he grow up and be sensible." Lao Qiu fully understands Sun Youxiang's intentions, and this document is sent out like a flood that will not change his mind.

Sun Youxiang pressed Dai Guozi's hand, but his eyes were at Gu Changming: "Gu Gongzi, you helped me get out of danger this time, Guozi said at that time that he wanted to repay your favor, so it is better for you to return the favor at this moment." ”

Gu Changming and Sun Youxiang exchanged glances, and the two saw the answer they wanted in each other's eyes: "Since Lord Sun is here, it's just a good time to be a witness." I want to wear fruit as an attendant for a year, and go with me everywhere and everywhere, and I will not regret it. ”

"What!" Dai Guozi was hit one after another, here is the godfather who wants to resign and leave, and there is Gu Changming who wants him to be a coolie. "I promised to repay your favor, but I didn't say that I would repay such a big favor. What the hell is a one-year retinue! ”

"Guozi, if it weren't for Gu Gongzi's help this time, a huge amount of official silver would have been lost. Don't talk about you and me, who can survive the entire county government. There are eggs under the nest, and this favor is not only for you to repay, but also for us old fellows, as well as those who are conscientious but unaware of the servants outside. After Sun Youxiang's finger tapped at the number of people present, he pointed straight out of the door, "Gu Gongzi, as long as you have a year, you still have to bargain." I can't raise my godfather, although I am not your biological father, I also have no way to teach, no way to teach. ”

Dai Guozi couldn't turn around in one breath, where could he withstand Sun Youxiang's agitation, and slapped his palm on the corner of the table: "One year is one year, the master is young, and he is not afraid of delaying this year's work." I can say it, this year's food and shelter are all paid for by you. ”

"Deal." As soon as Gu Changming's two words came out, Lao Qiu and Lao Quan both came over to congratulate Dai Guozi, and what they said was almost the same, saying that being able to follow Changming Gongzi was a good blessing that was difficult to find with a lantern.

Dai Guozi listened to the nostrils of the air with anger, he was going to do coolies, listening to the two old guys boasting, as if he was marrying him out of Quyang County, or marrying a good family business. His face was not good, and he wanted to attack in front of Sun Youxiang, so he went out awkwardly to breathe.

Sun Youxiang stood up and gave Gu Changming a long bow: "Thank you Gu Gongzi for fulfilling my heart." ”

Gu Changming refused to accept his big gift, and hurriedly helped him with both hands: "This is Lord Sun who sees that I want to use my ability to wear fruit to do some difficult things." I also want to thank Lord Sun for his promotion, why do I want Lord Sun's thank you gift instead. ”

Sun Youxiang smiled bitterly: "I resigned, and Guozi must be very uncomfortable in my heart." He grew up under my knees when he was three years old, and he knew his own child's nature best. He must have said that he wanted to go back to his hometown with me, I have passed the age of no doubt, he still has a good life, how can I bear him to wear his will. I can follow Gu Gongzi's north and south of the river, but I am relieved. ”

He took out the letter he had written in advance and handed it to him with both hands: "This is the address of my hometown, and when the fruit is over, let him have time to write to me." ”

When Lao Qiu and Lao Quan heard this, they couldn't help but be moved, and said in unison: "My lord, we will go back to our hometown with you, and we will have a companion on the left and right." ”

The corners of Sun Youxiang's mouth twitched, and there was a faint layer of water under his eyes, but he didn't say anything else.

Dai Guozi lowered his head sullenly and walked forward, Liu Zhuxue's face was frightened, and the two almost collided head-on.

"Miss Liu, what are you?" Dai Guozi saw that Liu Zhuxue had already taken the snow-melting sword, and he was still carrying a burden on his shoulders. looked like he was about to leave temporarily, and his hair was not neatly combed, "Where are you going?" ”

"I have an urgent matter at home, and I have to go back." Liu Zhuxue was originally borrowed and could leave at any time. However, she accepted the kindness of the county government, thinking that it was really unseemly to say goodbye without saying goodbye, so she probably packed up her things and prepared to come over and leave after a notice.

"In your home, in your home in Kaifeng Mansion?" Dai Guozi didn't know why she ran away from home from beginning to end, and Shaoyin of Kaifeng Mansion never came to find this biological daughter. I wanted to ask several times, but I was deeply involved in the case, and I forgot about it as soon as I got there. Today, when I heard her say that she was going back, I remembered her background again.

"Yes, my father is in poor health, I'm afraid it is, I'm afraid it's ......" Liu Zhuxue was so confused that tears almost burst out of her eyes. She stubbornly covered the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, "I can't delay any longer, since I met you, I bother you to talk to Master Sun, I'm going to leave in a hurry, thank you for taking him in these days." ”

Dai Guozi grabbed her forearm: "Miss Liu, you leave in a panic like this, there will be an accident on the way." And the thief in your house? ”

"Here." The little phoenix was actually able to get up and always followed behind Liu Zhuxue. However, there was no one else in Dai Guozi's eyes, such a big girl's house, and I didn't see it at all, "Don't shout female thieves and female thieves, I have a name, my name is Little Phoenix." ”

"Tut-tut, adults are kind-hearted, but you are not a good person, otherwise why don't you confess your organization, so as not to harm others again. I look at you, it's just that the thief's heart is hard to change, and a dog can't change it for a lifetime to eat......" Dai Guozi was afraid that Liu Zhuxue would break free of his hand, so he was anxious to say nothing.

The little phoenix on the other side actually didn't know why Liu Zhuxue said that she went out to buy her snacks and was in a hurry to leave when she came back, so she only grabbed a few changes of clothes and silver taels. She was worried, so she followed up to take a look, but she didn't expect to be scolded by Dai Guozi in front of her.
