split

The princess is used to going her own way, coming and going inside and outside the prime minister's mansion casually, and Gu Ji would not restrain her normally, even if she doesn't return all day, Gu Ji probably knows it later.Under the name of husband and wife for many years, there has never been the reality of husband and wife.

Only this time, the old housekeeper couldn't stand it any longer, and hesitantly came to sue Gu Ji.

"How many days haven't you returned?" Gu Ji's ink pen hung in the air, and his eyebrows frowned into a Sichuan character.

"The servant girl came back to report that the princess has been staying in General Qi's mansion for the past few days."

"Why do you stay here?" It's really outrageous for a woman to hang around the general's mansion for many days.

"When General Qi returned to the capital, he brought back a dancer from Southern Xinjiang. After the new year, he will be taken as a concubine. Madam and the dancer are very close, and they have been living there for a few days."

"Oh? Where does this dancer come from?" Gu Ji asked casually.

After all, the old housekeeper was thoughtful and meticulous. He had already inquired about these things, and replied: "The dancer heard that it was a congratulatory gift from Nanman to General Qi, and she really voted for General Qi, so she kept it by her side for more than half a year. gone."

The princess was looking for some handkerchiefs, but Gu Ji didn't want to embarrass her, so he told the old housekeeper, "Then send a young man to pick her up. It's enough to stay for a few days. If it's too long, it's easy to be talked about."

"Yes." The old butler bowed and stepped back.

The boy went to pick up the princess, but only got back an invitation.There are only three sentences in the letter: Three days later, Qi Fu will set up a dust-cleaning banquet in the Quelou, and I sincerely invite Prime Minister Gu to do the same.

Gu Ji stuffed the letter back into the envelope intact, put it in the memorial, and handed it to Jinlong's desk the next morning.

Of course, I won't go to the dust-cleaning banquet.

Que Tower is not far from Xiangfu, Qi Fu exchanged cups and entertained all night, by the time the banquet was over, it was already the shadow of the moon and it was nearly three o'clock.

Gu Ji ordered another change of hot tea, and sat quietly in the Linjing room, his eyes were light and unfocused, and he didn't know what to think about.

"Waiting for me?" The study door was only ajar, but Qi Fu pushed it open.

Seeing someone walking in swaying, Gu Ji frowned and said, "Drink a lot?"

Qi Fu put half a jug of wine in his hand on the table, then limply hid in the grand master's chair, while rubbing his temples, he complained: "They are all brainless warriors, they just know how to pour alcohol, vulgar!"

Gu Ji picked up the pot with his slender fingers, poured a cup of warm tea, and handed it to Qi Fu: "Use some, to hangover."

The wrist was suddenly restrained, and the half cup of hangover tea was unsteadily spilled a few taels of water, which splashed on the silky shiny fingers, making it more and more attractive.

Gu Ji frowned and wanted to retreat, but the restraining claws were like iron bracelets, which became tighter and tighter.Qi Fu's eyes were stained with drunkenness, and he licked three points of teasing.

Unable to break free, Gu Ji scoffed, "Let go!"

"Why don't you come?"

"Let go!"

"It's fine if you don't come. What's the point of pouring tea at midnight?"

"..." Gu Ji just wanted to break free from the restraint, no matter what he asked, he struggled harder, and the lid of the teacup in his hand jingled.But Qi Fu let go of his hand suddenly, and Gu Ji immediately pulled his hand away, but he didn't want to be hooked by a clever force under his feet, his whole body was unstable, and he fell down immediately.

Qi Fu stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around the man's waist, and hugged his arms full, then said with a light smile: "Prime Minister throwing himself into his arms and giving him a hug is the hardest way to get rid of a beauty's kindness."

The teacup in Gu Ji's hand was unsteady, and finally rolled off the grand master's chair with a "clang clang", and the tea twisted into an arc, as if mocking Gu for being overconfident.

Qi Fu obviously drank too much, so he leaned close to the smell of alcohol, Gu Ji struggled and opened his mouth to scold, but Qi Fu suddenly said coldly: "There are three barren hills in the southern suburbs of the capital, with dense old trees and few people. Ji, do you think how many troops can be hidden in that place?"

Tibetan soldiers!Qi Fu really turned his back!Gu Ji's struggling figure froze, and he asked, "What did you say?"

Although Gu Ji was leaning against General Qi, he tried his best to prop up his whole body on his toes, and his stiff muscles and bones trembled for a moment. Seeing this reluctance, General Qi had to loosen his grip, and Gu Ji immediately escaped. Taking two steps back and standing still, he asked with displeasure on his face, "Do you know what you're talking about!"

General Qi saw Gu Ji's attitude of provoking his teacher and questioning his crimes, but he suddenly laughed, and after a while he laughed backwards and forwards, and he couldn't even speak coherently: "...you are really... a bookworm who has grown up... Linglong heart. Haha Ha ha……"

Gu Ji stood with frowning brows, his red lips pursed into an unhappy arc, watching his drunken state of laughing and cursing with cold eyes, and finally asked worriedly: "Why are there Tibetan soldiers in the suburbs of Beijing?"

Qi Fu didn't answer. He picked up the jug at hand and took a big gulp. His posture was unrestrained and unrestrained. Then his eyes turned sharp and he stared straight at Gu Ji: "Naturally, I'm planning a big event. Will the prime minister help me achieve it? "

"Confused!"

"Gu Xiang, he's a sober person." Qi Fu's smile was still there, but there was a strange look in Abyss's eyes, which made Gu Ji feel edgy for no reason.

Among the twelve powerful ministers of the "Three Dukes and Nine Ministers" in the Huanjing Dynasty, Qi Fu's old father, Qi Taiwei, has half retired, and the post of Yushi doctor has been vacant for many years. The real power is only held by the prime minister.Surrounding the court, with hundreds of officials in the court, military and military, all affairs in the country must be handled by Gu Ji, and his status is prominent.And this is one article and one weapon.Qi Fu's military power is overwhelming, and when he returns to Beijing this time, no minister of the Ministry of War will let him get three points.If Qi Fu has no two minds, there is a prime minister who can govern, and the generals stationed abroad are famous, why not treat these two great sages?Emperor Huanjing can sit back and relax without worrying about the world.

It's a pity that the world is unpredictable, General Qi has already shown his fangs, and what is in front of Gu Ji is an either-or dilemma.

Gu Ji turned around and went back to the case. He didn't answer Qi Fu's ridicule, but talked about the past: "Brother Qi, I still remember that you stole the blade feather of the teacher and lost it. Later we The two were punished to kneel for two days and nights in the Baptism Hall."

"Blade Feather" is a dark iron knife with a sharp edge. The bird feather flew up and broke in two instantly, hence the name "Blade Feather". The mischievous Qi Fu hid him, and later when the incident was revealed, Qi Fu and Gu Ji, who was guarding the weapons that day, were severely punished, so the matter was over.

It's a pity that the blade feather was thrown away by Qi Fu in a blink of an eye, and the two of them searched earth-shatteringly, but they never saw each other again.

Thinking about being young and frivolous, Qi Fu thought it was funny, and said with a smile: "Remember, I looked down on a little boy like you at that time."

If it was eight years ago, when Gu Ji heard him say "little boy", he would have hit him on the head with his hand, but time has passed, and now the two of them sit as guests and hosts, with a clear distinction, and the friendship they used to have has long since disappeared.

"I found that blade feather."

"Oh?" Qi Fu was quite surprised, and looked up at Gu Ji.

"It's a coincidence that the county... my wife organized a birthday banquet a year ago and invited the troupe from the Hongxuan Tower. There was a juggler playing silk and broken brocade, and the prop was the 'Blade Feather'."

Qi Fu became interested, and asked: "That's a coincidence, but I can check the history, is it true or not?"

Gu Ji was also affected by his enthusiasm, his smile deepened, and he said: "The knife is indeed that one, but the owner killed it. It is a good thing passed down from the ancestors. I am a majestic prime minister's mansion. How can I snatch an actor's food guy? Things just go away.”

Qi Fu asked: "Can't you buy it back?"

Gu Ji shook his head, and said helplessly, "I don't want to change a thousand pieces of gold. Why don't General Qi go by himself? Maybe it's better than my clumsy mouth."

Qi Fu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Maybe you can try it."

Sharing childhood memories narrowed the distance between each other, and the extravagance of the sword just now disappeared in a blink of an eye.It's a pity that Qi Fu's arrival was not kind, so he brought up another issue: "Yun Ji, the Prime Minister has bound you for eight years, right? Nine years?"

"Nine years." The word 'bundle' is really appropriate, Gu Ji smiled wryly.

"Tired?"

"A general doesn't say he's tired from the blood on the battlefield, so why should I be tired from writing?"

"You, just rest..."

Qi Fu's tone was softly sighed, not like discussing, but more like begging.Gu Ji didn't say a word, he knew that if he agreed, Huanjing Dynasty would be full of wind and rain, as if the pillars of the top beam were broken, and Emperor Huanjing would have to struggle a lot if he wanted to sustain this situation by himself.

After a long time of silence, the sound of barking dogs came from outside, which was so far away that it was unreal.Qi Fu seemed a little disappointed, raised his eyes and asked, "Yunji, do you still have that jade pendant?"

Gu Ji covered his sleeves with a guilty conscience, Gu left and right said to him: "Why did you say that."

Qi Fu smiled wryly, and said: "Guess. The Prime Minister's love is unwavering, and I will admire it in the end."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Qi Fu raised his palm, made a gesture of "three", and said, "Three months."

"?" Gu Ji didn't know why.

"Three months, I'll let you see Zhu Muyao's sincerity!" Qi Fu's tone was gnashing his teeth a little angrily.

Zhu Muyao is the name of Emperor Huanjing, and Qi Fu dared to call the Holy Majesty by his full name, which is simply outrageous. Gu Ji frowned and reprimanded: "Presumptuous!"

But Qi Fu stood up from the grand teacher's chair, his eyes burned fiercely at Gu Ji, for a moment, Gu Ji even saw the evil spirit in his bloodshot pupils, which was abnormally bewitching.

"Are you afraid?" Qi Fu approached step by step.If eyes could kill, Qi Fu's eyes might have already killed Gu Ji.

Gu Ji was afraid, but he would not show the slightest bit. His long eyelashes were drawn back in a hurry, and when he looked up again, he smiled as if he had put on a signboard, and said, "General Qi, don't waste your time doing useless work."

Qi Fu was taken aback, Gu Ji's smile was still confident and gentle, but completely unfamiliar, which gave Qi Fu an illusion that Gu Ji was not the soft Gu Ji eight years ago, maybe this smiling eye seemed familiar, but he had already hidden it Sharp edge.

As if meeting an opponent at chess, Qi Fu lost his momentum, snorted coldly at Gu Ji, and said, "Prime Minister Gu, please wait and see."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left, not forgetting to take the white jade jug on the case table with him when he left, and when he reached the door, he turned around and said "Farewell."

The night talk broke up unhappy.

Gu Ji sat alone in the Linjing Zhai, without moving for a long while, and took out the moist blood silk pendant from his sleeve, wondering what happened in the past?
