Chapter 45: Autumn Leaves
It was late at night.
Gu Mingzhu didn't wait for Gu Xiurong to return home, Yang Jiu talked back and forth in the morning, and his brother rested in the military house in the middle of the night.
Gu Mingzhu's name resounded in Jiangling City overnight.
"What is the charm of this Gu Mingzhu? How can the two young men in Jiangling be so fond of him? ”
"I'm afraid it's not the reincarnation of the fox, right? Otherwise, how could Xu Shizi be confused. ”
"People are handsome, what are you jealous of?"
"Phew, what do you marry, what are you going to do, what are you dangling in front of me!"
Gu Mingzhu in the car said lightly: "What are you doing parked?" ”
Chun'er said angrily: "Miss, listen, what has Jiangling City been saying about you now!" These people don't know what to do, and they talk nonsense......"
Gu Mingzhu chuckled lightly and said, "People are praising me, what do I have to be angry about." ”
"Is this a boast?" Chun'er glared.
Gu Mingzhu said: "The fox charm refers to a person with excellent appearance, ordinary people can't be a fox charmer, people praise me for being good-looking, why am I angry?" ”
Chun'er was stunned: "Miss...... It's strange for you to understand, it's the first time I've heard of fox Meizi being a boaster. ”
The carriage shuttled through the downtown area and soon stopped in front of a shop.
Chun'er lifted the curtain and went down, turned around and admonished, "Miss, be careful on the road." ”
Yueyan lifted the curtain of the carriage, and Gu Mingzhu smiled at her in the carriage: "I know." ”
The curtain was lowered, the car was quiet, and the carriage set off again.
Gu Mingzhu's expression was faint, she couldn't see her emotions, and said, "What's going on?" ”
Yue Yan said: "The news has been released, and it is estimated that the palace will soon receive the news." ”
Gu Mingzhu sighed and said: "It's not been peaceful recently, the people's grievances in Qingzhou before Yun Zhao appeased and there was no chaos, I received news a few days ago that there was civil unrest in Qingxian and Dangzhou. Gangneung is now surging with undercurrents, if the place can't be suppressed anymore......"
Yueyan pondered for a moment and said, "Miss wants to make a fuss about the affairs of Qingxian and Dangzhou?" ”
Gu Mingzhu smiled slightly: "If there is no cat, how can we have a loophole to exploit?" ”
Yueyan said: "What about Miss?" ”
Before he could reply, the carriage stopped in a secluded street, and the coachman said, "Miss, the red leaf pawn shop has arrived." ”
Yueyan stopped the topic, lifted the curtain, and the two got out of the carriage.
Most of the shops on this street are antique calligraphy and paintings, and there are few customers in front of the door, and the red leaf pawn shop is no exception, and the two of them stepped into the pawnshop.
The pawnshop counter blocked the view, and the footsteps were detected, and the voice of a middle-aged man came from inside: "What do the guests want to pawn?" ”
Yue Yan handed over a brocade box.
The man took it, opened the brocade box, and saw that it was a cyan maple leaf.
His expression was shocked, and then the cabinet door was opened, and the man in his thirties said respectfully, "Distinguished guests, please enter." ”
Yueyan looked slightly surprised, but she still followed Gu Mingzhu inside, and the two were led to the backyard wing.
"Guest, please wait."
The man hurried away.
Gu Mingzhu sat down, looked at it and said, "This place is indeed hidden from people's eyes. ”
Yue Yan waited aside, looked at it carefully, and said: "Antique, the scenery in the courtyard is staggered, and the boss here has taste." ”
Gu Mingzhu said: "Only scholars in this place like it, it seems that you and her are like-minded." ”
Yueyan smiled, and then heard light footsteps outside the house.
She has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and her ear power is extraordinary, and she quickly concluded: "People who come can do martial arts, and their martial arts are extremely high." ”
A woman in a green shirt walked in outside the door, with a thin figure, twenty-five or sixteen, with a delicate appearance, and when she saw Gu Mingzhu, she arched her hand and said, "Miss." ”
Yue Yan was stunned.
Gu Mingzhu said: "Something happened, you also heard about my participation in the martial arts banquet yesterday." ”
In the early autumn, he said: "Gangneung City has been rumored. ”
"It's all about trivial things, and there's another thing."
Listen in early autumn.
"I accidentally killed Ion Yu yesterday, I used the dagger of Hongye Building, the Criminal Department is not a vegetarian, and I should be able to find some clues."
"Ion Yu ......" Chuqiu pondered for a moment: "Prince De's youngest son? ”
"Yes."
Chu Qiu said: "This is okay, our traces are secret, even if the criminal department finds us, it is useless." ”
Chu Qiu thought about it, and felt that she had come here specially to inform the news, and thought, "Does Miss have other deep meanings?" ”
"I have an idea." Gu Mingzhu's left hand was on the table, and his index finger tapped.
Early Qiu's eyes fell on the hand that was as white as jade, and he vaguely noticed Gu Mingzhu's little habits.
"Let out the rumors, just say that Lixu's people have been in contact with Hongye Building."
Early autumn will mean: "Miss is going to borrow a knife to kill someone?" ”
"The contradiction between Lisui and Lixu is deep, I will add some firewood to them, let this fire burn more vigorously, and burn Jiangling out of a hole." Her eyes flashed with excitement and anticipation, and a dangerous flame danced.
Gu Mingzhu stopped laughing and said: "There is one more thing, the people's grievances in Qingxian and Dangzhou are rising day by day, and now there are rebellions everywhere, but they have been suppressed by the government, only these two places are not low but rising, it just so happens that these two places are Lixu's jurisdiction, one is ion-yu, and the other is a riot, even if he is not the prince, he will be abolished." ”
Chu Qiu sighed slightly, and said: "The affairs of Qingxian and Dangzhou are easy to do, our foundation is in the east, and the affairs of the Spring Banquet in the building are handed over to him." ”
Gu Mingzhu sighed, and his eyes were slightly biased towards Yue Yan, who had not made a sound.
Chuqiu's mind moved, and he said like a stream: "Miss, who is this girl?" ”
"Yue Yan, the daughter of Huang Yao, the former governor of Fu County."
Yueyan bowed slightly, and Chuqiu nodded lightly with him, and said, "I see, I've heard a little." ”
Gu Mingzhu smiled.
Yue Yan said: "If you want to come to this sister, she is the one who transmits the message from the black pigeon. ”
"Oh? How so? ”
Yue Yan smiled faintly: "The words are like their people, although my sister's body is slender, she is imposing, and her pen is also full of color." ”
Chu Qiu also smiled: "Yueyan has good eyesight." ”
Gu Mingzhu got up and said: "There have been a lot of incidents recently, I have put it in the cage, if there is anything, call someone to find me in the Thirteen Gardens." ”
Chuqiu followed by her side: "Yes." ”
"If it's urgent, it's okay to send someone to find Yueyan, she is now in charge of the big and small affairs in my garden, and she often needs to move around."
"Yes."
When he arrived at the courtyard gate, Yueyan said, "I'll call the coachman." ”
After she walked away in early autumn, she said, "Miss, this is the Huang Yueyan you asked me to check?" ”
"Exactly."
"Huang Yao's daughter really deserves her reputation, hearing such a conversation between the two of us, she didn't show any timidity, her face was calm, and she was bold!"
Gu Mingzhu leaned on the door casually and said, "It is indeed a good blade, it depends on whether you are loyal or not." ”
"Miss is testing her today?"
Gu Mingzhu smiled, and a hint of banter flashed in his eyes: "The murderer of the second son of the prince of the dynasty, if this news penetrates to the ears of Prince De, plus a stronghold in Jiangling in Jiangling, which has recently become famous in the rivers and lakes...... Prince De made great contributions because of this, and avenged the murder of his son, and he will be the guest of honor in the palace in the future......"
She sighed slightly: "It's really exciting......
After Gu Mingzhu finished speaking, his eyes suddenly flashed ruthlessly: "Keep an eye on it!" If you rebel, you will be strangled on the spot! ”
"Yes!"
