Gu Anran slept for a while, and faintly heard the sound of a flute.

Originally, she was just pretending to sleep, but after listening to the flute, she slowly opened her eyes, frowned at the book standing at the door, and quickly got up from the soft couch.

"Mother."

Shuxiang was surprised and walked over quickly.

"Someone is playing the flute, I'll go check it out!"

Shuxiang was stunned and hurriedly took the cloak over.

"Mother, the slave will accompany you."

Gu Anran nodded, and after tying her cloak with the fragrance of books, the master and servant walked out of the room quickly.

When I went outside, I listened carefully, and the sound of the flute was not in the Lanting Pavilion, but seemed to come from the right side of the Lanting Pavilion.

"What's that place over there?"

Gu Anran's sense of direction is not very good, and this is the evening, and it is the first time to come to Redwood Villa, so he doesn't know where it is at all.

After asking, without waiting for Shuxiang to answer, he had already walked out of the door of Lanting Pavilion.

Seeing this, Shuxiang hurriedly followed.

"Niangniang, there is the Maple Leaf Garden, named after many maple trees, but at this point, the maple leaves are probably all gone, bare, and there is nothing to look at."

"However, the rockery pond inside, the slave maid heard that the design is very good,"

Gu Anran listened, smiled and nodded.

"Alright, let's take a look!"

Shuxiang was stunned and hesitated.

"Niangniang, why don't we wait for the emperor to come back before we go?"

At the mention of Dong Linrui, Gu Anran couldn't help but snort.

"Waiting for him to come back, I don't know when, maybe, I'll go inside and hang around and come back, let's go, go over and have a look first!"

As he spoke, Gu Anran narrowed his eyes.

"Didn't Aunt Zhong pass the word in the past? Knowing that I am resting here at Lan Ting Pavilion, he will definitely come over later, we have time. ”

Shuxiang wanted to say something, but when she looked at the queen mother who turned right directly after going out of the door and strode forward, she had to beckon the palace maids behind her to hurriedly follow.

Gu Anran looked at the large number of followers behind him and frowned.

"You guys, let's all stay here at Lan Ting Pavilion, what if Aunt Zhong comes back and can't see anyone in a hurry? Scholarly, just follow along! ”

After speaking, without giving Shuxiang a chance to speak, Gu Anran had already strode away again.

Shuxiang pursed her lips, and had to let those palace maids wait in place, and she hurriedly followed.

Turning right and walking for about a cup of tea, Gu Anran found that the sound of the flute was getting closer and closer, and it was indeed coming from the courtyard over there.

After that, I went directly to the gate of the courtyard.

When I looked up, it was Maple Leaf Garden.

The door of the Maple Leaf Garden was wide open, and the light inside was dim, and there seemed to be no one inside.

Even, there are no guards or maids guarding the door.

Shuxiang looked at it, a little worried.

"Niangniang, if you want to listen to the flute, let's just listen to it outside, here, let's not go in."

Gu Anran raised his eyebrows and glanced at Shuxiang in astonishment.

"Shuxiang, what are you worried about?"

Shuxiang opened her mouth and whispered.

"Niangniang, as far as the slave maid knows, from the Winter Garden on the other side of the covered bridge as the boundary, the front of the Winter Garden is the residence of the ministers and their families."

Gu Anran was stunned, and then looked at the scholar.

"You mean, the flute player at this time may be the son of the current minister's family or something, I'll go in...... Doesn't make sense? ”
