Chapter 91: A Trip to Lingzhou (Part II)
** Feng's eyes flashed with tears: "I didn't dare to go to Jiazhou, so I asked the Ninth Senior Aunt to invite Fu Bo to show us the way to Hongtai to explore the truth." γLatest chapter reading. Who knew that when I stood under the city wall, I saw that the defenders here turned out to be Brother Gong's fan, which is why I entered the city so easily. β
Gu Xiyan thought of Gong Tao's attitude just now, and she felt heavy in her heart, and said bitterly: "What did Gong Tao say? β
**Feng's face was cold: "Gong Tao asked me for my master's edict for a long time, and he didn't give me a letter." I wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, wait until I went out of the city in the middle of the night, asked my aunt to help, secretly monitored Gong Tao, and saw what tricks he played, but who knew that he left me to spend the night in his mansion. When I arrived at the place where he lived, it was heavily guarded, and it was all the tigers of the master, and I recognized one of them, and it was the third master's disciple, and I was thinking that it was not good, but there happened to be a scout who said that two men and two women appeared outside the city, and I heard the description that was talking about you. In desperation, I had no choice but to admit that you were my companions. When Gong Tao heard this, he personally led a team of Hu Benlang and me out of the city to pick up people......"
**Feng looked at Gu Xiyan solemnly: "We have to hurry up now, eat, sleep, recuperate, and recuperate, I don't know what will happen tomorrow?" β
Gu Xiyan carefully looked at the demeanor of ** Feng, wanting to find out a little hypocrisy or contrived from it.
**Feng's eyes were calm, calm, sincere, and generous, so that Gu Xiyan looked at her generously.
It would be terrible if he was telling a lie. What did he have to remember?
Could it be that private seal!
But this is not right, except for Qi Maosheng and himself, no one knows that the private seal is now in his hands?
Gu Xiyan couldn't get an answer after thinking about it, and his heart was confused for a while.
She decided not to pursue the issue for the time being.
"Do you have any cases?" Gu Xiyan asked.
**Feng Ping's eyes were churning like a rushing wave for a while, and a cold murderous aura oozed from his eyebrows: "Only tomorrow after seeing Gong Tao, I will see the opportunity to act!" β
Other words. Feng doesn't want to know his plans on his own!
The two of them didn't talk anymore and were silent until Duan Yingluo knocked on the door: "It's time to eat." β
Gu Xiyan reached out and touched the kang that was about to burn and said, "Sister Duan, let's eat with me." It's warmer in the room. β
Duan Yingluo hesitated.
**Feng said: "Aunt Zu, please follow Miss Gu every step of the way, it's too unsafe here." β
Duan Yingluo smiled bitterly. brought the food and came in to eat with Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan didn't believe anyone now, but she had to determine Duan Yingluo's position as soon as possible.
She thought for a moment and asked Duan Yingluo: "Why does Sister Duan suddenly want me to come to Lingzhou?" β
"Ahh Duan Yingluo's eyes widened.
Gu Xiyan said with a smile: "Sister Duan helped me leave Shengjing, and the land was used by Mrs. Li and Mr. Yuan, I looked at Mrs. Li, it seems that she is a more respectful elder sister, since this is the case, my sister naturally really wanted to help me leave the place at the beginning." I just don't understand that my sister made up her mind to bring me to Lingzhou when I started to have diarrhea. Or did you change your mind after encountering the ** peak? β
Duan Yingluo's face turned red and looked apologetically: "The diarrhea is really an accident!" β
She didn't deny Gu Xiyan's words, which finally made Gu Xiyan feel better.
"Girl, although you are young, you have insight into the world, and there are some things I don't say. You should be able to imagine that too. Duan Yingluo pondered for a long time, and said softly: "Southern Shura, who has been making a living in the court all these years. The disciples who came out of the Xiufeng Dojo have formed their own faction in the army. However, our Northern Shura can only do some things like a dart master and a guard, and the most embarrassing thing is that he is also from the Shura Sect. Some of the disciples of the Northern Shura served as guards for those disciples of the Southern Shura Land whose martial arts cultivation was far inferior to their own. I don't say anything under his instructions, and sometimes I listen to some gossip. Some disciples of Southern Shura. He also likes to find disciples of Northern Shura as guards...... Since my master, our people from Northern Shura have begun to contact and cooperate with the Four Great Mansions, but the best one is the Yan Mansion. β
Qi Maosheng may also know the strangeness of this, so he will send ** Feng to the main altar of Southern Shura.
But even if it was like this, why didn't Duan Yingluo follow Qi Maosheng's instructions? Gu Xiyan's heart froze, and he said cautiously: "As soon as I saw you, I asked you, what did Qi Hao say to you, you said at the time, he just asked you to take care of me, what is the matter, run errands......"
Duan Yingluo sneered: "Girl, why are you confused as soon as you encounter your own affairs?" β
Gu Xiyan looked at her puzzled.
"Who is Grandpa Guo, can you still say bluntly that I can't take you captive?" Duan Yingluo smiled: "Even if it is a captivity, the girl must be willing." β
Gu Xiyan's heart pounded: "What do you mean?" β
"Knowing that you won't obediently obey your family's arrangement, I sent a top master by your side and didn't hide my identity." Duan Yingluo smiled deliciously: "Grandpa Guo, this is a net, waiting for the girl to jump in!" β
"Ahh Gu Xiyan couldn't help but cover his heart.
Her heart was beating so fast that she felt like she couldn't breathe or breathe.
Duan Yingluo said: "As the girl said, the Shura Sect taught me kung fu, provided me with food, and provided me with drink, and now is the time for me to contribute, how can I not listen to the meaning of the strings and spoil the elegance of the grandfather of the country!" β
Gu Xiyan's face was flushed.
Because the first time I saw Qi Maosheng, it was Ye Zisu and Fang Shaoqing who eloped, and when they eloped, they thought that he was the weaker party, and then they had Dicui Pavilion to save each other, and then they had the reluctance to rely on it......
It's a shame!
Calculated again and again by this guy! Despite this, Gu Xiyan felt that Qi Maosheng, who had always made her miss, so real at this moment.
There is even a feeling of sympathy.
Qi Maosheng is like himself in many ways.
In the Xiangyu Pavilion, he smashed the furniture and showed his frank anger, Ye Zisu and Fang Shaoqing were in love, and he had no choice but to fulfill his neat attitude when he left...... It's like a movie shot flashing through her mind.
Qi Maosheng was calm. But not indifferent; Although calm, it is not wooden; Although persistent, it is not stubborn; Although tolerant, it is not generous...... He's the same as himself. In reality, local people will play a little trick in their own favor while abiding by the mainstream virtues of society.
Time. Gu Xiyan's heart was so soft that it could drip water.
Duan Yingluo saw Gu Xiyan's face flushed brightly, and her eyes were like a fire burning, and she thought that her laughter had annoyed her.
It's come to this point, so don't let that make you ruined.
Duan Yingluo played a sympathy card. She lowered her voice: "I just don't know what happened to Grandpa Guo now?" β
Gu Xiyan was stunned.
yes, I wonder what happened to this guy?
"After eating, I have to ask ** Feng, if someone asks, I have to make up a set of words." Duan Yingluo frowned slightly, "The situation is unclear now, if you really have anything to do with Grandpa Guo." Maybe what's going on? β
Back in reality, the softness in the center has become the softness of the body, and Gu Xiyan smiled bitterly a little powerlessly.
Neither of them has the appetite to eat, and they pick up the dishes without a match, each thinking about their own thoughts.
Everyone was about to go to bed after eating, and in the quiet night, the trampling sound of "Huohuo" suddenly sounded.
Duan Yingluo and Gu Xiyan got up and listened quietly.
** Peaks and there is a whispered hum. I can't hear the specific content.
After a while, ** Feng came and knocked on the door and said, "Aunt Zu." Lord Gong wants to meet our Shuramen people. β
"Now?" Duan Yingluo asked as she got dressed.
"Hmm!" Feng replied sullenly.
Duan Yingluo, Gu Xiyan hurriedly got dressed, and was about to go out, Duan Yingluo seemed to suddenly remember something, and wanted to help Gu Xiyan tie the sleeve arrow to his elbow.
Gu Xiyan refused: "The things in this world are the most afraid of half-hanging." Or like you. Wu Shiqun. Or, like me, I don't know martial arts at all. β
Duan Yingluo was stunned.
Gu Xiyan smiled: "If anyone asks." You can tell the truth, just don't mention that the person who entrusted you to be my bodyguard is Qi Hao. Only half a lie in ten sentences can deceive people! β
Duan Yingluo smiled indifferently, put the sleeve arrow in her baggage, pulled the door straight and walked out.
Gu Xiyan smiled self-deprecatingly, and walked out.
When they went out, everyone was already dressed, just waiting for the two of them.
The officer with the big sword at his waist looked at them carefully, and secretly counted the number of people, and said, "Let's go!" After speaking, he took the lead out of the door of the inn.
Gu Xiyan and his entourage of five people, surrounded by a group of soldiers, turned a corner and came to the street, walked eastward, less than an arrow away, and came to the yamen of Hongtai.
The gate of the yamen was closed, surrounded by soldiers, and two officers were standing on the steps of the yamen and patrolling back and forth.
The officer who led Gu Xiyan here took off the waist card from his waist and handed it to one of the officers, the man walked aside and looked at the waist card carefully by the torch for a while, and then handed the waist card to another officer, who also walked to the torch and looked at the waist card carefully, and then the two nodded to each other, and the officer who took the waist card went to knock on the door of the yamen, and after a while, the yamen opened a seam, and the officer handed the waist card in.
Gu Xiyan and his entourage were suddenly summoned late at night, and seeing these officers so cautious, everyone couldn't help but feel uneasy, and handed each other "careful" looks. Fortunately, not long after the waist card was handed in, the door "squeaked" and opened a seam collar, and when Gu Xiyan arrived, the officers saw this and made a "go in" gesture to them, leading the way in front and leading the way first, and advanced into the yamen.
Gu Xiyan and the others hesitantly followed. There were only three or two officers standing behind the gate in the yamen, and two angry lanterns hung on the high eaves of the roof, reflecting the snow-white of the branches and shining silver.
They followed the officer through the hall and into the backyard of the yamen.
The exquisite turnover of the curved corridor shadow wall turned out to be a courtyard pattern of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
There is such an elegant place in this cold place.
A sense of absurdity arose.
