The anger that was chased all the way seemed to be washed away at the moment when he approached the Pufa Temple. Dai Guozi didn't believe in these before, and the Pufa Temple was not a very large temple, and today I don't know what is going on, but when I smell the faint incense, my whole body relaxes. He looked at Gu Changming beside him and saw a smile in his exhaustion: "You said that this place has a lot of relationship with you?" ”
"When I was born, I was born with a congenital deficiency disease, and the famous doctors in Kaifeng Mansion at that time said that I would not live to be three years old. My grandmother was reluctant to let me die and sent me to the Pufa Monastery. After seeing me, Master Yiming gave me the name of Changming, stayed in the guest room of the temple for a few days, and then asked my grandmother to take me back. Gu Changming's gaze stayed on an ancient tree in the courtyard, the crown of which was covered with small white flowers, swaying in the wind, "After my grandmother returned home until she passed away, she insisted on being a vegetarian for me." ”
Dai Guozi originally wanted to ask, then are you all right? With a mouth open, he quickly slapped himself in the head again, such a big man standing in front of him, his body is stronger than himself, where can he see any congenital deficiency.
"Then the monks here all know you, what if they report you to the official?" The more Dai Guozi thought about it, the more likely this was possible, "The news spread quickly, if the government wants to lay a net, the same is true for the temple." ”
"Come in with me first." Gu Changming didn't answer Dai Guozi's question directly, and didn't seem to take it to heart at all, "Don't look at the temple, the scenery behind the mountain is very good." ”
Where is Dai Guozi in the mood to see the scenery, this is a time of life and death, and Gu Changming is too calm. At this time, a little monk happened to come over, and when he saw the two of them, Dai Guozi's heart jumped, and the little monk obviously recognized Gu Changming, and saluted him with his hands folded.
Gu Changming also returned the salute: "I will live in the temple for two or three days, and there is Master Lao." ”
The little monk didn't ask a word, but took them from the mountain road by the main hall to the back mountain, and to the door of the guest room and folded his hands. This time, I couldn't help but return the salute even when I wore the fruit, it was really a clean and good place not to ask about foreign affairs, and I didn't ask a word from beginning to end.
"If anyone is looking for me, please let me know." Gu Changming pushed open the door of the guest room, "One bed for one person, pick up the water for drinking." ”
Dai Guozi stood at the window, and could hear the rustle of the wind through the leaves: "Do you come often?" ”
"I come almost every year, sometimes the case is tangled in the depths, and sometimes the mood is too chaotic." Gu Changming fought side by side with him, "Guozi, I am grateful that you are willing to stand here." ”
Dai Guozi's face was awkward, and his ears were red: "What kind of stupid thing are you talking about, we have always been together, you don't know if you kill or not." I swore in front of adults that I would be by your side for a year. Even if you really ...... I'm waiting for you outside. Oh, righteousness is a dog slaughterer, you don't understand. ”
Gu Changming was half a head taller than him, stretched out his arm to put his arm around half of his shoulder, and replied seriously: "Of course I understand, most of the negative people are scholars." It's going to go around in circles and curse. ”
Dai Guozi's face began to burn, he was used to not dealing with Gu Changming, this kind of favorability of calling a brother and a brother, he couldn't bear it: "Then we will wait here for Miss Liu's news." ”
"I'm wondering, who did Liu Shaoyin marry Liu Zhuxue to?" Gu Changming thought of many possibilities, of course, the rich and noble families in Kaifeng Mansion didn't know any of them. But he has a scale in his heart, it must be an excellent marriage, and Liu Shaoyin is so nervous.
But looking at Liu Zhuxue's reaction, he was to get out of the family and not want to marry. He hadn't heard of any family in a hurry to ask for marriage beforehand, so where did this abrupt choice come from?
"It must be some kind of big official, maybe it's still a bad old man." Dai Guozi's face was angry, and he was embarrassed to say the details when he didn't see Miss Liu, and his father sold his daughter as a bargaining chip.
"Liu Zhiyuan is not that kind of person, just for the wealth in front of him, his vision will not be so short-sighted." Gu Changming shook his head and said, there must be something else hidden in it, which makes Liu Zhuxue unspeakable.
Dai Guozi felt that there was a fire burning in his chest, and he couldn't put it out, so he simply carried the bucket at the door and ran out to fetch water to relieve the fire. Gu Changming looked at him angrily, although Guozi didn't admit it, he was actually a very soft-hearted person.
On the other side, the three groups of officials led the carefully selected big dogs, chasing the breath left by Gu Changming in the streets and alleys according to Situ An's orders, obviously fleeing all the way from the backyard of Hu Wenxi's courtyard with blood, how could these beasts who usually have a keen sense of smell only turn around. All three groups almost collided together. Some people scolded on the spot because they had done useless work.
The other leader turned around and went to Situ An, saying that the three groups of people had not found any clues, and this Gu Changming seemed to have disappeared in Kaifeng Mansion.
Situ An was drinking a cup of hot tea, squinted his eyes and said, "What about the other two?" ”
One followed Gu Changming's side, but he was also nowhere to be seen. But the woman appeared. The person who took the lead didn't know Liu Zhuxue, and there seemed to be confusion in his tone, "The strange thing is that she went to Liu Shaoyin's mansion, is this to assassinate Lord Liu?" ”
"You're thinking too much." Situ An took another sip of tea, that was Liu Zhiyuan's daughter, where was there a reason to go home and kill her father for a man who was nothing. If so, wouldn't it be a sin on top of a sin," did she enter the house? ”
"I came to report just now that it was about to arrive, and now I count the time, I should have already gone in." The leader looked at Situ An's expression, and suddenly wanted to wipe a cold sweat.
"Find someone to continue to monitor Liu Shaoyin's mansion, if she comes out, see where she goes, just follow her." Situ An's fingers tapped a few times on the lid of the cup, revealing a grim smile, "I don't think she will come out." ”
The one who took the lead didn't dare to ask what this sentence meant, where was there such a stupid person, and he threw himself into the net. He cautiously asked again: "Then Liu Shaoyin will take that woman, will he force him to confess the whereabouts of the other two, if so, all the credit of the adult will be taken by Liu Shaoyin." ”
"I didn't ask for credit, but I wanted peace." Situ An put down the teacup and said, "Put away the three groups of people, Gu Changming must still be in Kaifeng Mansion." Under the noses of you and me, it's a pity that he is a chess player, so we can't find it. Instead of rummaging around, it's better to wait. ”
He got up and left the place where he had rested, and now that the news was confirmed, he needed to go back and bow back.
At this moment, Liu Zhuxue is looking at the courtyard gate of Liufu, such a familiar and unfamiliar place. She had finally made up her mind to escape, and now she was walking back on her legs.
The invisible hand in the dark is always manipulating behind the back. Liu Zhuxue was clearly hesitant, whether to go in or not, how did the courage that was full of courage suddenly slip away, and the rest was still in awe of her father.
The courtyard door opened from the inside, Liu Zhuxue subconsciously wanted to turn back, and the people inside the door shouted first: "Miss, it's really Miss back!" Go and tell the master that the young lady is back! ”
This is the ringed coral in the willow bamboo snow house, and somehow it happened to come out and open the door and just happened to see the willow bamboo snow standing on the steps. After shouting this time, Liu Zhuxue didn't have the heart to run anymore, so she could only ask: "Father is at home?" ”
"My lord has been in poor health recently, and he will come back to rest after handling important official business." Coral opened the courtyard door wide, and there were several familiar subordinates in the courtyard, all of whom stopped what they were doing and saluted Liu Zhuxue, "If you see the young lady come back, maybe you will be happy and sick." ”
Liu Zhuxue listened to Coral's words and always felt that something was wrong. Thinking about it more carefully, why did Coral think she left the house, it seems that instead of being furious, her father suppressed the real reason, for fear that others would find out.
"Does my father know when I'll be back?" Liu Zhuxue asked intentionally or unintentionally while following the coral in.
"The master said that Miss's master wants to take Miss to practice, and no one knows how long it will take. It's that the young lady walks on the front foot, and the old man on the back foot is sick, it must be because he is worried about the young lady. Coral walked briskly, but waited for Liu Zhuxue several times in front, "Miss is not too tired on the road, so she can't walk." Later, I'll take care of the stove and cook some of Miss's favorite dishes on weekdays, and then take a comfortable bath and everything. ”
"What's wrong with my father?" Knowing from the mouth of the coral that her father was really sick, Liu Zhuxue felt a sense of relief, so the news she heard was almost true, and it was not that her father deliberately found someone to fabricate it in order to frame her. "Have you asked a doctor to come and see you?"
"After reading everything, the old man coughed badly, coughing all night long, and couldn't sleep. The eldest prince came back to see it once, but because he was on official business, he hurriedly left again. Coral was nagging all the way, and almost recounted all the details of the house after Liu Zhuxue left, "Miss, Miss, aren't you going to see the master?" Why did you go over there again? ”
"If I go to see my father like this, he will not like it, so I should wait until I freshen up and change my clothes before I go to see him." Liu Zhuxue didn't finish half of her words when she felt someone looking at her behind her. Instinct prompted her to turn around quickly, and saw Liu Zhiyuan standing in front of the door of the study, his brows furrowed, as if he was considering how to speak.
Coral is also afraid of the master, who in the house is not afraid. She shrunk her neck, and most of them were still hiding behind Liu Zhuxue: "Miss, the master seems to be angry with you." ”
When Liu Zhuxue saw her father, those doubts about wanting to leave disappeared. Her fingers touched the Snow Melting Sword, and her whole body was full of strength, and she resolutely turned around and walked towards Liu Zhiyuan. Then he looked up at his father, who had always been high: "Father, I'm back." ”
Liu Zhiyuan's brows slowly relaxed, a little afraid of frightening her, and with a slight mockery: "I'm willing to come back, for the sake of the kid surnamed Gu." Father kind of understands why you want to force your objection to that marriage. ”
Liu Zhuxue wanted to refute, I hadn't met Gu Changming at all when I was against the marriage, and my father had misunderstood.
Liu Zhiyuan squeezed out a smile at this time: "Look, your eldest brother is in a hurry to come back." ”
Liu Zhuxue subconsciously turned her head to look, the back of her neck hurt, and her eyes were black.
