The traitor has a white moonlight

"My lord, the Tofu Alley is here." The carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley, and the coachman lifted the curtain: "This alley is narrow, and the carriage can't get in. I have to trouble my lord to walk for a while."

"It's okay." Gu Huaisheng patted the folds of his knees and stood up, stepped on the pedals and got out of the carriage, raised his hand and gently pushed the driver's support, turned around and looked into the alley: "Is the Qingyun troupe in there?"

"Exactly." The coachman said: "Recently, a new opera troupe has arrived. The troupe leader is young and handsome. He sings Huadan and Tsingyi. The business is booming. There are quite a lot of people who come to listen to the opera because of their fame. This person comes and goes. , and even the business of the old teahouses in this area has followed suit.”

Gu Huaisheng nodded, threw a piece of silver over, and walked into the alley.

Tofu Hutong is an old alley in Dongcheng. The houses are dilapidated and the streets are uneven. Most of the people living in this area are ordinary people.And the teahouses and restaurants in this area were originally patronized by the unruly people in the market, and it was rare to see a well-dressed dignitary passing by all year round.

Gu Huaisheng still remembered that the last time he came here, he was watched by a group of shabby-clothed people like monkeys. It was only two or three months ago, and the scene had changed when he came again.Walking in the middle, no one would chase and watch around like that, even the children would just gather together and play with the mud wooden marbles without giving them a sideways look.

And the people I saw along the way, although still wearing simple puddings and puddings, are no longer sallow and emaciated, and their complexions have improved a lot. Get angry.

It can be seen that, as the coachman said, the new Qingyun troupe has brought about the livelihood of this area, and indeed changed the living conditions of the people a lot.

"My lord, are you here to make sugar figurines?" Gu Huaisheng just stared at the candy figurine stand in a daze for a long time, and the stall owner mistook him for buying, and greeted enthusiastically.

After being yelled at by the stall owner, Gu Huaisheng came back to his senses. He smiled, walked over to look at each one, and reached out to take a fat-headed Fuwa.

"Just this." Gu Huaisheng asked, "How do you sell this?"

The stall owner immediately showed his yellow teeth with a smile: "This fat-headed fuwa consumes a lot of sugar, so it is relatively more expensive. Seeing that the adults are lucky, it is cheaper for you, just five copper coins."

Gu Huaisheng didn't have the habit of carrying copper coins, so he directly touched a tael of silver and gave it: "Boss, Qingyun troupe..."

"My lord also came to the Qingyun Opera Troupe to listen to the opera, right? This is the first time?" Seeing Gu Huaisheng nodding, the stall owner reached out and pointed to the left turn: "The Qingyun Opera Troupe is not far away, you come to the end here, turn left and go for a while Just arrived, there is a signboard of Qingyun Opera Troupe at the entrance of Zhangji Teahouse, it’s easy to find.”

"Thank you." Gu Huaisheng looked in the direction of the stall owner's finger, turned around and thanked him, then left with the candy figurine, twirling the candy figurine, and couldn't help chuckling: "You loved this the most when you were young, but every time I didn’t have to buy it once, and I don’t know if I still like it now?”

Smiling and laughing, Gu Huaisheng suddenly felt a little melancholy, he still remembered the way that kid left home in full dress, it was only a few years ago, goodbye, but it has been a lifetime.

In the last life, of his two brothers, one was upright, but died due to calculations because of his willful will, and the other seemed to be a wild crane, but was in the dark. Like him, he had a bad mind, refused to take shortcuts, and wanted to go against the trend. In the end, he ended up like this .

These two incidents have always been a huge stone in Gu Huaisheng's heart, and he can't let go of it until he dies.So after his rebirth, besides not following the old path and connecting those networks, the first thing he did was to find the whereabouts of his third brother Gu Huaiyang.

But after searching for so long, he has been searching all over to no avail. If he hadn't come out of the yamen early that day in a bad mood and received a dart message from the messenger, he still doesn't know that the other party has returned to Beijing long ago and lived here.I didn't even know that the bastard had already contacted his people in secret, so that he was informed of his whereabouts, and he was angry and helpless. The boy happened to step in sideways.

Following the direction pointed by the stall owner, Gu Huaisheng just turned onto the side road when he heard a burst of babbling and beating gongs and drums singing in the distance, and the applause resounded ten meters away. Just listening to the sound can tell how hot his business is. .

Following the sound, I saw the cloth banner of Zhangji Teahouse at a glance, and standing at the door was a wooden sign with the words Qingyun Opera Troupe written in ink.

"Please, guest officer, do you want to..."

"Where is the master of the Qingyun Opera Troupe?" Gu Huaisheng interrupted the waiter's greeting, pinching the edge of the dart with his hands in his sleeves.

"This……"

Seeing the buddy hesitating, Gu Huaisheng raised his hand and threw two pieces of silver over: "Lead the way."

"Yes..." As the saying goes, money can make ghosts turn the millstones. After getting a reward, the clerk immediately got up, led Gu Huaisheng around the lobby, and walked towards the backyard through the side door: "Guest officer, please come with me." , there are many people in the lobby, it is inconvenient to go through the main entrance, only the side entrance, please forgive me."

Gu Huaisheng didn't pay too much attention, he just nodded and motioned for the buddy to lead the way.

"That's it." Through the side door and into the backyard, the assistant took Gu Huaisheng to a side room and stopped: "Mr. Gu should still be putting on makeup..."

"I'm his second brother." Gu Huaisheng explained his identity: "I don't need you here, you go down, I'll just find him myself."

As soon as these words came out, the buddy was stunned, with disbelief written all over his face.Gu Huaisheng is still wearing an official uniform at the moment. Although he is a novice, he can't see the grade, but his whole body can tell that he is either rich or noble. Such a high-ranking official is actually the second brother of a low-level actor?

Gu Huaisheng ignored the stunned buddy, raised his hand and pushed the door and walked in.As soon as he entered, he was dazzled by the colorful costumes and props in the room, and after a lot of effort, he found Gu Huaiyang who was sitting behind the screen putting on makeup and hair.

"Second brother came really fast." Before Gu Huaisheng could make a sound, Gu Huaiyang, who had his back turned to him, saw him in the bronze mirror, put down the hair piece in his hand and turned around: "I thought you had to live again It's been a while."

"Since you've returned to Beijing, why don't you go home or contact your family?" Gu Huaisheng walked over, stood still in front of Gu Huaiyang, lowered his head and looked down at his gaze: "Do you know how long my brother and I have been looking for you?"

"What are you going back to do?" The smile on Gu Huaisheng's face remained the same, but there was a flash of gloom in the eyes of the smile: "Follow you to learn the way of being an official and the art of warfare on the battlefield? It's not just a day or two that I'm not interested in these things. The second elder brother should know that, as for me, I have no ambitions, and I have no other skills except to engage in all kinds of romantic affairs, so it is better to go out and do whatever I want than to stay at home."

Gu Huaisheng frowned slightly, watching him silent.

However, Gu Huaiyang saw the sugar figurine in his hand in a blink of an eye, his eyes lit up immediately, and he reached out to take it unceremoniously, Ka Bun bit into it crisply.

"Is this for me?" Gu Huaisheng asked while chewing.

Gu Huaisheng was helpless: "It's not yours, why didn't you just bite it politely?"

"Hey..." Gu Huaiyang smiled happily: "That's because, I knew that the second brother must have brought it for me!"

Compared to Gu Huaizhun's strictness, Gu Huaisheng has always doted on this younger brother. Firstly, the other party is younger than himself, and secondly, he has a congenial temperament, so after saying a few words, seeing the other party's hippie smile and changing the topic, he shook his head and said nothing more. explain.

Fortunately, Gu Huaiyang still kept his business in mind, and after eating the candy figurine in a few bites, he dismissed the others and dragged Gu Huaisheng towards the side wall of the room.

"Man, is Second Brother going to see you now?" Gu Huaisheng asked while leading the way.

"Yeah." Gu Huaisheng nodded: "How is he doing now? Are you still peaceful these days?"

"It's very quiet, no noise, no fuss, eat when you want to eat, sleep when you need to sleep." Gu Huaiyang paused: "Miss Yingying, people have sneaked into Miaojiang, detained her mother and younger brother, and let her go to sleep." Don't dare to play tricks."

The wall covered by the frame is a secret door, but after entering it is not a secret room, but a corridor leading to the next house. Oil lamps are lit on the wall for lighting, and the secret door on the opposite side can be seen at a glance.

"I still have to go on stage, so I won't go through with the second brother. After a while, you wait behind this secret door, and I will ring the bell for you to come out." Gu Huaiyang confessed.

Gu Huaisheng nodded, and walked into the tunnel by himself.Walking all the way to the opposite secret door, groping the wall to find the rope and rang the bell, the secret door opened accordingly.

It was Yingying's maid, Xiang'er, who came to open the door.

"My lord." Xiang'er saluted.

"Where's Miss Yingying?" Gu Huaisheng waved her hand to signal her to get up.

"Miss went to see the witch." Xiang'er said.

Gu Huaisheng nodded: "Lead the way."

Outside the secret door is a utility room. The two of them went out from the utility room, walked through the corridor and across the courtyard, and then opened the door and entered a room. It was there that Gu Huaisheng saw Yingying, who was sitting on the bed with her legs wrapped around the statue Maduo, a maiden from Miaojiang.

As soon as Yingying saw Gu Huaisheng enter the door, she turned around and blessed Fuli: "My lord..."

Gu Huaisheng helped her up, turned her head to look, then walked to the bed, condescendingly looked down at the expressionless Ma Duo on the bed: "His Royal Highness, nice to meet you?"

"Hmph." Hearing this, Ma Duo, who had been silent for a long time, sneered: "Are you people from Great Wei so hypocritical?"

"That's not true, it depends on the person." Gu Huaisheng bent down deliberately to look at his face as if he was deliberately shabby: "Don't you like me calling you princess? Then what should I call you? Ma Duo?"

Ma Duo snorted again, but this time she didn't even bother to talk.

"As expected of a wizard's daughter, she really has backbone." Gu Huaisheng was not angry, and was still smiling, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Our Great Wei has another saying, the sages say, those who know the current affairs are the best."

"What do you want to say?" Ma Duo's ears moved, and he finally turned his head and gave him a straight look.

Gu Huaisheng flicked off his sleeves: "I have two options for you right now, one is to cooperate with me, and I will keep your mother and brother safe and sound after the matter is completed, and the other is to stick to your current position and go to hell with your mother and brother. Beautiful Ma Duo girl, you have to think about it, okay?"
