As soon as Yingying left, Gu Huaiyang rushed to Gu Huaisheng in a few steps, and he was not polite, took the tea cup that Gu Huaisheng had drunk, and took two sips to moisten his throat.

"Second brother..."

"It's useless for you to be anxious." Gu Huaisheng interrupted Gu Huaiyang, picked up an orange on the plate and handed it to him: "By this time, he should have gone to sea."

"Going to sea?" Gu Huaiyang frowned, feeling a bad premonition.

"Yeah." Gu Huaisheng nodded: "A few days ago he came to ask me to resign, saying that he was going to go to the sea to visit Xiyang."

Gu Huaiyang's heart skipped a beat, and his expression became stiff: "Then, did he say when he'll be back?"

"At least a year or a half, at least a few years, I can't tell." Gu Huaisheng raised his eyelids and looked at Gu Huaiyang, seeing his reaction in his eyes, and couldn't help frowning: "You don't mean that to him, Isn't it good that he left by himself?"

Gu Huaiyang shook his head in a trance, turned around and left without saying a word, stopped suddenly when he reached the door, and turned his head slightly: "Second brother, I... I'm going to break my promise..."

"What?" Gu Huaisheng was at a loss, not understanding what Gu Huaiyang's nonsensical sentence meant.

"Maybe, I can't do anything for our family." Gu Huaiyang choked up and ran out without waiting for Gu Huaisheng's reaction.

Gu Huaisheng subconsciously got up and wanted to chase after him, took two steps and then stopped, sighed and sat back, just as he was about to serve a cup of tea, someone came in again.

"My lord, Eunuch An is back."

Gu Huaisheng was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he remembered that Mr. An hadn't come back since he left on a mission last year. It's been so long since Mr. An didn't see him, he even forgot that there was such a person.

However, come back as soon as you come back, why do you still report?

Gu Huaisheng was puzzled, before he asked, he heard his servants follow him: "He is in the Gu residence, so he specially sent someone to invite you to come over."

"Oh?" Eunuch An went back to the capital instead of returning to Prince Xun's mansion, but actually looked back at the mansion. This is rare. Gu Huaisheng got up from his side and asked, "Did you say something?"

"No." The servant said.

Gu Huaisheng didn't ask any more questions, and walked out of the door: "When the prince comes back later, he said that I went back to the mansion, and I will have dinner there tonight, so that he doesn't have to wait for me."

"That's definitely not possible." The servant said with a smile: "The prince will definitely go to find you."

This is indeed what Zhao Yue will do.

Gu Huaisheng laughed when he heard the words: "Well, let him tell him when he comes back."

Gu Huaisheng walked quickly, thinking that Gu Huaiyang had just left and caught up with him, but he didn't even catch up with the tail of the carriage, so he had to ask someone to prepare the carriage.Because he was thinking about Gu Huaiyang in his heart, his first reaction when he arrived at the Gu Mansion was to look for him, but he was told that Gu Huaiyang hadn't returned at all.

Gu Huaisheng frowned, but he still had to see Gu Huaizhun and Eunuch An at the moment, so he put this aside for the time being, and went straight after asking the two of them in the study.Eunuch An did not go back to Prince Xing's mansion when he returned to Beijing, but came to Gu's mansion to look for Gu Huaizhun, maybe something happened.

Gu Huaisheng's guess was correct. Eunuch An was originally scheduled to come back in two months. The reason why he came back early was that something happened, and this matter should not be publicized, and it is no small matter.

The door of the study room was ajar and did not close. As soon as Gu Huaisheng got outside the door, he heard the conversation between the two people inside. It was about the Tongyang Pass.

Gu Huaisheng stood outside the door and listened for a while. The voices of the two of them were low, and the murmurs were not very real, but they also vaguely heard the key points of Chengwang, Tongyang Pass, and bluffing.

Gu Huaisheng frowned, reached out and pushed the door open.

In his haste to enter, he forgot to knock on the door, startled the two of them, turned around and saw that it was him, and their expressions relaxed.

Eunuch An bowed his waist and saluted: "Slave pays respects to Mr. Gu."

In fact, it stands to reason that it should be called Princess Gu Huaisheng, but since Gu Huaisheng is a man and has an official position, and the two of them marry each other, it seems inappropriate to call it that. An old name.

Gu Huaisheng waved his hand to signal Eunuch An to be excused, and walked over to sit down next to Gu Huaizhun, and asked, "Why did Eunuch An take so long to come back, but what's going on at Tongyang Pass, so you can't walk away?"

"Isn't it?" Mr. An said fairly: "During the war, the county magistrate abandoned the city and fled. Fortunately, the prince and General Gu arrived in time, but the redress was won, and the chaos was real. The order could not be implemented for a while, so the old slave stayed to take care of it for a while. Not long ago, he received the transfer order from the new county magistrate to take office. Yes, who knew that the new county magistrate was intercepted and killed halfway, and he was impersonated by the people on King Cheng's side. It’s about going back to the hometown to visit relatives, and it will take another two months before returning to Beijing, so it’s not good to go back to the palace directly, so I came to Gu’s mansion to bother me.”

Hearing this, Gu Huaisheng exchanged a glance with Gu Huaizhun: "You can't judge people by their appearances, this King Cheng looks at his duty, and he is actually an ambitious master!"

"What do you think?" Gu Huaizhun asked Gu Huaisheng.

Gu Huaisheng pursed his lips, and said in a disdainful tone: "A mere king can't make waves. Since he's restless, don't let this peaceful life pass."

Mr. An said: "What does your lord mean?"

"After all, the current life is too comfortable." Gu Huaisheng didn't say much, but one sentence sealed the outcome of becoming king.

"Huaisheng is right." Gu Huaizhun said: "Tongyang Pass is full of our people, so it is not enough for a counterfeit to turn the world upside down and pretend to be an official of the court, which is a serious crime of beheading. King Guan Cheng, let him stay for a few days, to be dealt with by the emperor."

Eunuch An nodded: "In that case, this old slave won't worry about it."

Gu Huaisheng asked: "Is there any relevant evidence?"

"Yes, the old slaves have brought them with them!" Mr. An said fairly: "But this is not important. The important thing is that the old slave learned from the fake county magistrate that there is some confusion between King Cheng and Manhu, but that Not many people know about it, that's why the old servant didn't startle the snake, and came back first, because he was afraid that King Cheng would get wind and destroy the evidence."

The three of them were talking when Zhao Yue arrived.

The four of them gathered in the study and discussed for a while, before even waiting for dinner, Zhao Yue took Gu Huaisheng away, and as for Eunuch An, he temporarily stayed in Gu's residence.

Before going back, Gu Huaisheng was still thinking about Gu Huaiyang, but Gu Huaiyang didn't see him, so he took an aggrieved fruit shell back along the way.

"The young master promised that he would bring his servants to serve him when he married King Xing." Guo Ke'er was really suffocated during this time, and he waited and waited for no news, otherwise he wouldn't be so shameless, of course, he could The main reason why he is so shameless is that the Gu family has a new housekeeper, otherwise he will not be able to leave no matter how wronged he is.

"It's done, it's done, didn't you find someone to take over before?" Gu Huaisheng didn't take that kind of trick, and stretched out his hand to give Guo Keer a heads-up.

Zhao Yue turned his head to look at Gu Huaisheng: "What's wrong?"

"Huh?" Gu Huaisheng was taken aback by the question.

"I see you are absent-minded." Others couldn't tell, but Zhao Yue could tell at a glance: "Thinking about Huaiyang?"

Gu Huaisheng nodded, but said nothing.

Zhao Yue didn't ask any more questions, and patted Gu Huaisheng's shoulder reassuringly.

But Gu Huaiyang, who had been missed by Gu Huaisheng all the way, was at the pier at this time.
