Thousands of thoughts

In the evening, after Yan Zi delivered the medicine to Bai You, she came over to look for the lonely ghost.

Before entering the yard, I heard the voice of the lonely ghost [Why is Miss Yanzi here? 】

The voice came from the apricot blossom tree, and under the hazy moonlight, the figure was leaning against the tree trunk, with the red clothes fluttering.

Yanzi tapped her toes to perform lightness kung fu, and flew onto a branch beside her [Why are you running up the tree so late? 】

[Hehe~~~Ghosts are different from people.At night when you sleep, I will start to move. 】

【Oh, that's true. 】Yan Zi sat down cross-legged, 【However, the young master often stays up at night, he usually reads very late, and has to get up early the next day, sleeps very little, probably about the same as you. 】

[He...has always been like this? 】

[En,] Yan Zi nodded, and took off a leaf to play with [Young master not only has to worry about state affairs, but also manages the big and small affairs of the mansion, I have never seen him take a good rest in memory. 】

[No wonder... the beauty always frowns. 】The lonely ghost held his chin with one hand.

[Yeah, the young master is cold-tempered, and he rarely shows his emotions. I have never seen him smile. 】

【Is it? 】

[Yes, but, hehe~~~~] Yan Zi smiled and said [Since you came to the mansion, the young master has learned to be angry. I have never seen anyone capable of making the young master angry before. 】

【Are you complimenting me? 】

[Of course it's a compliment, it's better than being expressionless all day long.Doesn't he often have a black face when you are angry? ! 】Speaking, Yan Zi imitated Bai You's angry appearance.

[Hehe~~~~ You imitate it quite alike. 】Gu Gui was amused by Yan Zi's appearance 【However, I don't know why your young master always dislikes me. 】

[This seems to be, I also find it strange.Maybe...could be...]

[What is it? 】

[Is it...you always...molesting him? 】Yan Zi hesitated.

[... Is there any? 】The lonely ghost asked inexplicably.

【kindness. 】Yan Zi nodded vigorously 【You have to call him "Beauty Beauty" all the time, he must be unhappy. 】

[But he looks really good-looking. 】

[…] Yanzi broke into cold sweat.

【If you don't call him a beauty, what should I call him? 】The lonely ghost was troubled, and thought about it for a long time, then suddenly the corners of his eyebrows twitched, and he smiled knowingly.

[What did you think of? 】Yan Zi asked curiously seeing Gu Gui smiling wickedly.

[You will know tomorrow. ] The lonely ghost just smiled and said nothing.

[By the way,] Yan Zi slapped her head, and said [I was so busy talking to you that I almost forgot the business.The young master asked me to come and take a message, so that you can go to his study tomorrow if you have time. 】

【You mean, he was looking for me? ] It is simply impossible.

【Well, but he didn't say anything specific. 】The night was getting late, so Yan Zi got up and said 【Then I'll go back first.Remember to go to the study tomorrow. ] After speaking, he swept off the branch and went back.

Looking up at Mochizuki, the lonely ghost smiled and turned back to his room.

Seeing that Bai You had come back early, just as he got off the sedan chair, Bai Zhan, the head guard who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward and said, "My lord, there are some clues about the matter of Fengsheng Pavilion." 】

[What's new? 】 Bai You asked as he walked towards the mansion.

[Last time I told you that a man dressed as a quack was found behaving abnormally. I saw him accompany another person into Fengsheng Pavilion yesterday, but that person wore a hat and covered his face with a veil, so he couldn't see clearly. ] Bai Zhan followed closely and reported the situation [The two seem to be in a master-servant relationship.But I saw them go in, but not come out. 】

[Don't see them coming out? 】

【yes.After watching for a day, there was no sign of coming out.Although both of them are dressed as men, judging from the way they walk, they are a bit feminine, and the skin of the hands of martial arts practitioners is generally rough, but their exposed hands are white and slender, so the subordinate judged The two of them should be women disguised as men. 】

[So they act cautiously. 】

[Yes, full of vigilance. 】

【The people who went in can't just disappear for no reason, you should watch carefully.When necessary...] Bai You looked at Bai Zhan with a gleam in his eyes.

【clear. 】Bai Zhan understood, clasped his fists and said 【Young master, do you have any other orders? 】

Bai You shook his head.

【The subordinate...】

Before Bai Zhan could finish speaking, the door of the study opened from the inside, and a magnetic voice came from inside the room [You'er, you're finally back? 】

Worry...? ! ! !

Bai Zhan, who has always been prudent, petrified on the spot. This title...is simply...

Bai Zhan turned his head to look at his young master cautiously, but Bai You's face was...very calm? ! ! !

calm……? ! ! !

Terrible, the calmer the more terrifying.

The lonely ghost came out of the house with a happy face [I have been waiting for you for a long time. 】

Bai You looked at the lonely ghost with unfathomable eyes.

Bai Zhan saw Baiyou's fists clenched slowly, with blue veins faintly visible on them, but the lonely ghost smiled without knowing it.The situation seems to be a little bad, Bai Zhan said truthfully [Young master, this subordinate will retire first. ] After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry.

[I heard... you have something to do with me? 】The lonely ghost stepped forward and asked.

【What did you call me just now? ] Bai You didn't answer directly, but looked up at the lonely ghost calmly and asked.

[Worries. 】Gu Gui smiled and said 【Why, you seem to like me calling you that? 】

【like? 】Bai You snorted coldly and said 【Of course. 】As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it.

The lonely ghost dodged sideways and caught Bai Youyu's hand, and said with a smile [Yanzi said that I shouldn't call you that to make you angry, but now I change my name and you are angry again, maybe you still want me to call you "beauty" all day long? "No way? 】

【you……! 】 White worry and anger.

on purpose!

This ghost is definitely on purpose!

Originally, I felt that I really made a big fuss about what happened yesterday and shouldn't do it first, so I asked Yan Zi to call this ghost to teach him how to paint to express her apology.But now it seems that it is completely unnecessary, and it is simply superfluous.

[Is it called "Sorrow" or "Beauty"?You choose one yourself. 】It's so hard to die, the lonely ghost added another sentence.

[…] Baiyou rolled her eyes.

[If you don't choose, then I'll help you choose. 】Seeing the rich expression on that Baiyou's face, the lonely ghost was secretly happy【I'll call you "Your". 】

[...! ! ! 】Bai You stares at 【Don't call me! ] With a flick of his sleeve, Baiyou forcefully pushes away Gu Gui's hand.

[Not calling you?How can I talk to you when we meet after that? 】

【…】Baiyou didn't bother to pay attention to him, and went into the house and closed the door.

[Sorrow...you...] The lonely ghost knocked on the door.

[Don't call me that! 】 Inside Baiyou shouted sharply.

[But you still haven't told me why you came to me? 】The lonely ghost said strangely.

【without!thing! 】 Baiyou replied angrily.

fine?

It was obvious that Yanzi had something to say, but now that he came to the study, he closed the door and entered the room by himself.

However, the title "Sorrow"...is indeed much nicer than "beauty".

Recalling Baiyou's awkward appearance just now, it's really funny. Looking at the closed door in front of him, the lonely ghost smiled evilly.

While eating, the lonely ghost came out and sat down with everyone.

【Master, are you hungry too? 】Bai Chuan said in surprise.After all, it is rare to see a lonely ghost come out to eat. He always says that he is a ghost and doesn't need to eat.

[Why, can't I eat? 】The lonely ghost asked back.

[Of course not, eat more, you eat more. 】Bai Chuan laughed.

During the meal, Baiyou remained silent, and put down the bowl after a few mouthfuls.

Seeing Bai You put down the bowl so quickly, the lonely ghost said, "Your, you eat so little, what if you get hungry at night?" 】

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked!

"Sorrow"? ! ! !

Everyone couldn't help opening their mouths, looked up at Gu Gui, and then at his young master.I saw Bai You put the chopsticks on the table heavily with a sullen face, the chill was overwhelming.

Everyone tried their best not to laugh, pretending that they were transparent and didn't exist and didn't hear anything, so they almost didn't hold back their internal injuries.

In the end, it was Bai Chuan who couldn't bear it first, patted the table and laughed out loud [haha~~~haha~~~~~]

Then two cold lights came from the side, and Baiyou said coldly 【Don't you want to eat anymore? 】

[I want to eat, I want to eat. 】Bai Chuan hurriedly picked up the bowl, and blocked his mouth with a big mouthful of rice, oh my god, I really want to laugh, what should I do.

[What are you doing to scare children?You don't always have a cold face. ] The lonely ghost said solemnly, as if he couldn't feel Bai You's murderous gaze, and then turned to ask other people on the table [should smile more, what do you think? 】

Everyone picked up their bowls and covered their faces, nodding vigorously while grilling the rice.

Bai You quietly glanced at all the people present, as well as the ghost, and then said calmly, 【I'll finish eating in a while, you all go clean the stable before going to sleep. 】

【ah? ! ! ! 】Everyone was crying, but they could only look at Bai You's back as he left gracefully 【Isn't it? ! ! ! 】

His son... As expected, he can't be messed with! ! !

This morning, as usual, all the important matters were brought up for discussion, and then the general situation of Hufeng leading the troops to the south was reported. The army traveled day and night, and it was almost to the southern border.

After announcing his resignation, Duke Zhou stopped Baiyou, saying that the emperor had set up a seat in the imperial garden, and he had something to discuss with him.Bai You then followed Eunuch Zhou to the Royal Garden.I saw Huo Mingxian, who was wearing a yellow robe, was standing beside the jade pond, feeding the fish, with a proud figure.After bringing the man, Eunuch Zhou and the others retreated, while Baiyou stood behind him and waited quietly.

After feeding the fish, Huo Mingxian turned to Bai You and said [Why doesn't Bai Aiqing enjoy the fish together? 】

[Forgive me for being ignorant and not understanding the fun of fish. 】 Baiyou said respectfully.

[Hehe~~~~ National teacher, please don't be modest, how can a person who knows astronomy and geography know how to appreciate fish? 】

【The emperor congratulates me. A mastery of astronomy and geography is originally the responsibility of the national teacher. 】

[Hehe~~~~] Huo Mingxian strolled towards the pavilion and walked slowly [How is the situation of the white tree today? 】

[Except for being naughty and self-willed and not fond of reading, everything is fine. 】

[Hehe~~ His stubborn temper should have cost you a lot of thought, and only you can tolerate his temper. 】Huo Mingxiandao【It is said that you are modest and magnanimous, you really deserve your name. 】

[Don't dare to be generous, but does the emperor have something to say? ] Baiyou followed.

[After the prince was assassinated last time, you tried your best to protect him. Although you have not caught the real culprit, it shows your sincerity.Soon after, the prince took the initiative to admit his mistake, saying that he was too reckless at the time, and expressed his guilt. 】

[The emperor is serious. 】

[Seeing that you and the prince can work together, I feel very relieved. Now there is something that can promote the close relationship between you and the prince. I wonder what Aiqing thinks? 】

[Please also ask the emperor to explain clearly. 】

[A few days ago, you sent someone to escort Bai Qiang into the palace to accompany the second prince?At that time, there was still a servant girl accompanying Bai Chuan? 】

[There is indeed such a thing. 】

【That day when they entered the palace, they happened to meet the prince, and the prince fell in love with the maid at first sight.Since that day, he has been out of his mind, and after much deliberation, he decided to take her as his concubine. ] After walking to the pavilion, Huo Mingxian sat down and continued [You also know that the crown prince has never married a single wife and concubine, and has devoted himself to political affairs. Now it is rare to have someone he likes.And the maid in your mansion transforming from a servant to a prince's concubine is no different from flying on a branch to become a phoenix.Wouldn't this marriage be a good thing for you and the prince in the future? 】

Huo Mingxian's words made Baiyou's heart sink, but his face was still calm, and he replied [The emperor's words are very true, but she still needs to decide on the matter of men and women. 】

【As the master of the White House, you are naturally in charge. ] Huo Mingxian poured a glass of wine, handed it to Bai You, and said, "A mere maid, how can she be so capricious?" 】

【yes. ] After taking the wine, Baiyou drank it all in one gulp.Fortunately, on the way to the imperial garden, Bai You took some anti-alcohol medicine prepared by Shiro first, so there was no serious problem.

【Then the matter is settled like this. Tomorrow, someone will be sent to bring the maid into the palace. 】

【Your Majesty,】 Baiyou continued and said 【Tomorrow is not an auspicious day, so it may not be appropriate to be so hasty. 】

【According to what you said, when is the auspicious day? 】Huo Mingxian raised his eyebrows.

[Half a month later. ] Baiyou bowed and said [It's the day of amnesty, the so-called auspicious day of the zodiac. 】

[Hehe~~ good. ] Huo Mingxian smiled and said [So, according to what the national teacher said, this matter will be set in half a month. 】
