Chapter Forty-Six: Blushing
The smile on Pei Yungui's face froze.
That's really a narrow road.
The corners of her mouth twitched.
She said why does this street look so familiar, and she has been here two or three times, can she not be familiar?
Anything can be related to Gu Rin, if it weren't for the system explaining the situation at the beginning, she would even suspect that Gu Rin was the male protagonist.
Pei Yungui couldn't help but think about the possibility of Gu Rin as the male lead, and shrank for a moment.
There are intimidated by their own thoughts.
Pei Yungui took a deep breath, looked away, and stepped into his mansion.
Another carriage also arrived from behind, and the coachman was helping to move Pei Yungui's things in.
Although this house is not big, the sparrows are small and have all the organs.
The courtyard is square and square, with a flower bed in the middle, where the owner's family used to raise flowers.
Pei Yungui looked around, the doors and windows had traces of repair, and some dust fell on the walls, looking old, but compared with the place where Pei Yungui lived in the past, it was more than twice as good.
Push open the door on the left, there is a kitchen, kitchen utensils and other furniture are readily available, it should have just been purchased, and on the right are two wings for people to live.
The furniture in the room was covered with a thick layer of dust, and it probably took some effort to clean it.
Pei Yungui chose a larger room to put things in first, and then continued to visit.
In addition to the wing room and the kitchen, there is a study in the corner, the study is not big, there are layers of bookshelves around, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are dyed with a layer of gray traces, and no one has used it for a long time.
[The host can clean up this place first, and then warm the book every day in the future.] 】
The electronic sound of 4322 rang out in his head unexpectedly.
It has never forgotten the task of cultivating Pei Yungui into a cultured and knowledgeable youth.
Pei Yungui's face was expressionless, and he slammed the door shut.
What did she do when she opened the door of the study!!
Aside from the few rooms I've just seen, the largest parlor is the one facing the door.
Compared to Ji Mansion, this living room can be called simple, but Pei Yungui doesn't care anymore, anyway, no one comes to her house as a guest.
The coachman moved his things in and said goodbye to Pei Yungui.
It's still early, so Pei Yungui fetches water in the yard and cleans the house inside and out.
By the time the work was finished, it was already noon, Pei Yungui wiped his sweat, made himself a pot of tea, and sat on the chair to gasp.
She looked at the spotless room that she had cleaned up, and although she was tired, her eyes shone brightly.
Here, from now on, will be her home.
In the past, she repeatedly fantasized about escaping from the cage that the Ji family had compiled for her, and forever waved goodbye to the bad face of others who bullied and teased her.
But after all, she is a woman, she was born to be attached to others, and it is a foregone conclusion that she will be trapped in a deep house.
Although fantasy is beautiful, people live in reality after all.
It wasn't until Mrs. Ji drugged her and happened to bump into the day of the emperor's reward that Pei Yungui was able to tear open the crack along the small hole that was broken and seize the opportunity inside.
She was still sitting in the dilapidated backyard of the Ji family, planning for herself, but it was what happened a few days ago.
Now that his dream has finally come true, Pei Yungui is as unreal as a dream.
But the unreality gave her enough joy and confidence.
Escaping from the Ji family is only the first step, she has to become stronger.
She has to work hard to complete the task, find out the truth about the murder of her parents, and then make a complete end to the unbearable past.
Pei Yungui's eyes flashed with hope.
Little by little, time passed.
After packing up the things at home, Pei Yun went back to the market and bought some daily necessities. The house was deserted for a long time, and in the afternoon, when she was free, she asked someone to change the locks in each of her rooms.
The things she brought from the Ji family were all precious things, although she lived next to the General's Mansion, and her safety was somewhat guaranteed, she still had to keep an eye on it.
Pei Yungui has lived a long life of poverty, and he cherishes money and things very much.
It was busy until late at night, and the house was completely cleaned up.
She rubbed her sore waist and shoulders, ready to boil water for a bath.
There are no maids to serve here, and she has to do everything herself.
But it's still a habit, before she met the system, she also lived alone like this, on the contrary, without the chatter of miscellaneous things, Pei Yungui was at ease, and she tasted some quiet beauty in the busy day.
*
It's going to be dark.
There was a sound of horses' hooves outside the Gu Mansion, and the carriage galloped in from the side of the street, and in a moment, it approached the gate of the Gu Mansion.
Soon I saw the little guy looking at the door, and a head poked out of it.
The little guy shouted inside: "The general is back to the house, hurry up and hold the lamp!" ”
When the words fell, three or two small men held the lamp and immediately stepped out to meet both sides.
The carriage came to a firm stop, a bony hand lifted the curtain at will, and Gu Rin's handsome and uninhibited face appeared in the moonlight.
Gu Rin bent down and got out of the car, strode into the Gu Mansion, and carried a small box in his left hand.
Before the person entered the main courtyard, Cheng Ke's rough man with a wild beard stabbed over suddenly.
"Why did the general come back so early, isn't there a palace banquet?" Cheng Ke asked after him.
"Things are almost done, the palace banquet is boring, and the general can't get used to eating the things in the imperial dining room, so he simply escaped."
Gu Rin said casually.
It's as if he was running away from some kind of petty family dinner.
Cheng Ke's forehead jumped, speechless.
It's still his general's fierceness.
"By the way, Little Lady Pei has already moved next door." Cheng Ke did not forget the purpose of this trip, and reminded in shock.
Gu Rin jumped his eyebrows, and his brown pupils faintly moved in the direction of the courtyard, "So fast, when did you move in?" ”
"Just this morning, the Ji family's two carriages were pulled over, and they were busy all day, so I heard that there was no movement, so I guess I should rest."
"Oh, let's rest." Gu Rin didn't seem to be of a high nature, so he responded lightly.
Cheng Ke followed behind him unrelentingly, and said suspiciously: "What do you think the emperor thinks, he arranged Pei Xiaoniang next to our Gu Mansion for no reason, these eight poles can't be beaten, and they are lonely men and widows who are unmarried and unmarried, so it's not good after all." ”
Gu Rin glanced at Cheng Ke, "Thinking about writing something all day long, Uncle Cheng is very idle with the troops?" ”
"Don't," Cheng Ke's eyelids jumped, and he said vigilantly: "The last general is very busy, and he doesn't have the energy to train more soldiers." ”
Gu Rin chuckled lightly and handed the small box to Cheng Ke, "Since you are not idle, don't worry about these things, it's dried fish, take it to Yuanquan." ”
"Where did the general get the dried fish?" Cheng Ke took it and asked.
Gu Rin was busy investigating the remnants of the racecourse all day today, and the incident eleven years ago, so he shouldn't have time to buy anything with those two cats.
"When I went to the palace of King Wen on errands, I sent it by the prince, saying that I hadn't seen the masters for many days, and I gave a small gift of filial piety."
Gu Rin doesn't like the royal family, but he has a good relationship with Li Yinqu.
"Shizi?" Cheng Ke was surprised, and didn't pay attention to His Royal Highness the prince's nonsensical statement, and only said: "The general refers to the prince of King Wen's mansion?" He's not all ......."
Dumb?
Cheng Ke silently swallowed the last word into his stomach, and his astonishment floated on the surface.
Gu Rin handed the small box to Cheng Ke and began to untie his wrist armor as he walked.
"The poisonous and dumb prince is just an excuse for the emperor to clean up the Song family, and the real purpose of this execution, the saint is not the remnants of the racecourse, but the whole family of his Song Mansion. There is no excuse for the crime he wants to add, and the assassination case is just a cause he has found for himself. ”
If Pei Yun returned here, he would be stunned.
I didn't expect that my random speculation really knocked down the ideas of this group of politicians.
Cheng Ke was silent for a moment and said, "The water in the capital is really dark. ”
Gu Rin sneered, "The water in the capital is not black, how can you hide dirt and dirt?" ”
"General." Cheng Ke suddenly said with a nervous face: "The Song family has ended up like this, and you have seen it with your own eyes, if you don't restrain yourself from the royal family, no one can say whether you will become the second Song Qi in the future." ”
Who would have thought that one day, the swaggering Song family would be so sudden and uprooted by the emperor in just a few days.
It's good that this is falling to Gu Rin, after all, Gu Rin has soldiers.
But the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven after all, and it is only a matter of time before he wants to deal with a person.
The smile on Gu Rin's lips gradually faded, and his eyes gradually deepened.
Cheng Ke, who has no city government, knows the truth, how can he not know?
But in the royal attitude, he really can't control it, especially when he looks at Li Qingyuan's face, he will instinctively show his edge.
Apart from...... When Pei Yun returned to him, he could barely control the impulse in his heart and suppress the evil ghost in his heart.
And the intensity of this control will increase more and more as he meets Pei Yungui.
He was curious more than once.
What kind of person is Pei Yungui, who has such divine power.
He has always been a disbeliever in supernatural spirits, but Pei Yungui broke his cognition again and again, making him gradually doubt his past concepts.
It's like an addiction.
Gu Rin suddenly said: "You go feed the cat, I still have something to do, go out first." ”
After that, before Cheng Ke could react, he went out of the Gu Mansion again, and Cheng Ke shouted behind him a few times to no avail.
The mansion given by the emperor was only six feet away from the high wall of the Gu Mansion, and Gu Rin walked to the gate next door in two clicks.
There was no light on the door, and there was no movement inside.
Gu Rin knocked on the door three times, but there was no response from inside, and everything fell silent.
But it's still early, and it shouldn't be time to go to sleep.
He walked to the base of the wall and tumbled lightly into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, the lights in the living room have been turned off, and only some yellowish lights still leak from the side room, telling the existence of the owner.
Gu Rin walked directly to the door of the wing room and was about to knock on the door.
The eye unintentionally caught a glimpse of the silhouette of the candlelight in the house reflected on the oiled paper of the door.
The candle flame outlines a delicate curve of ink on the dim oiled paper, the back is slimmed, the waist is like a plain, and the shoulders and arms are smooth.
His eyes shrank suddenly.
A thin red quietly climbed up General Gu's fair earlobe.
Gu Rin turned his back and strode away, even the back of the wall was hasty and embarrassed.
He didn't see anything!
