Xijing Chronicle

No. 11, who lived in Quanfu, his old boss Ping Wang Shizi got a new sheet music, so he sent someone to pick up Gu and Xue to go over the house for a narration.

As soon as he left the whole mansion, Xue Zinu was as excited as a bird that escaped from the cage, and chattered all the way. Fortunately, Shizi's mansion is not far from the whole mansion, so Gu Huaisheng was spared before his ears got cocooned .

As soon as he arrived at Shizi Mansion, Gu Huaisheng parted ways with Xue Zinu, Xue Zinu went back to his residence to pack his things, while he went straight to the study without changing his clothes.

"His Royal Highness."

Seeing Gu Huaisheng walking in, Jin Wang Shizi Wen Jingzhou put down the pen in his hand, stood up to greet him, his eyes and brows were a little happy: "Huaiyu, you are here, there is no outsider here, call me Zichu."

There were no outsiders here, and Gu Huaisheng's tense face relaxed a little bit, and there was a little tiredness in the corners of his eyes and brows, which was an expression he had never shown in front of outsiders.

He rubbed between his brows, sat down on the chair, "Zi Chu."

"How are you doing in Quanfu these days? I've always been worried about you," Wen Jingzhou kindly poured him a cup of tea, and asked worriedly, "That old thief didn't suspect you, did he?"

"No, what I look like now, even you didn't recognize me back then, so where can he be suspicious?" Gu Huaisheng took a sip of the tea, the tea was still warm, and the mouth was clear, making people feel refreshed With a shake, the tiredness accumulated for so many days was diluted a lot.

"It's fine if you don't have one," Wen Jingzhou heaved a sigh of relief when Gu Huaisheng said it himself, even though he knew it would not be revealed, "I don't think about eating and drinking these days because of you, and Fang'er is worried about whether I'm sick. When she came to check her pulse, she asked me to have a check too."

Hearing him mention the concubine, Gu Huaisheng couldn't help but ask, "Is the concubine alright?"

"It's still the same." Wen Jingzhou's eyebrows were a little sad, "The imperial doctor said that if it is well maintained, it can last for four or five years."

The atmosphere suddenly became so gloomy that Gu Huaisheng didn't know what to say for a moment. The concubine was pointed out by Emperor Liang after Wen Jingzhou arrived in Daliang as a proton. Wen Jingzhou was of course very resistant, but he has always been a true gentleman. He would never take his anger out on this poor woman who also sacrificed herself in a political marriage. After spending a period of time treating her with respect as a guest, she gradually developed true feelings for her.

Perhaps people who are alone in a foreign land have an unspeakable loneliness in their bones. The imperial concubine is to Wen Jingzhou, just like dry crops are to a spark that is about to go out. It is a good medicine to solve this loneliness and comfort him.During those days, Wen Jingzhou was really happy. He was no longer bound by the hatred of the country and family all day long, but lived as himself.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. After the concubine's dystocia, she fell into the root of the disease, and the situation after that was getting worse every day... Fate is like this, and it has always been stingy with giving people real hope.

"Okay, let's not talk about this." Before Gu Huaisheng thought about how to comfort him, Wen Jingzhou had already recovered, and even changed the subject with a smile, "I haven't seen you for more than ten days, Brother Ping has missed you a long time ago. Yes, remember to go and see him later."

"Understood." Gu Huaisheng paused, took out a stack of papers from his arms, and after flattening, there was nothing on it, "This is the map of the whole government."

Wen Jingzhou understood, got up and took the candle at the corner of the table, and took out a fire pocket from the Duobao Pavilion to light the candle, "Is it reliable?"

"I drew it myself."

Gu Huaisheng carefully placed the white paper above the flames to bake. The two of them held their breaths and waited for a while, and the white paper gradually revealed vertical and horizontal ink marks. Man obviously has profound skills, and the lines are smooth and clear, which is pleasing to the eye.

Blowing out the candles, Wen Jingzhou took the map and sighed, "As expected, it is the largest mansion in all of Xijing. This is almost equivalent to half the imperial palace. Quan Chengen's life is probably more chic than the emperor's."

Gu Huaisheng sneered and said, "It's more than that."

"Have you been drawing maps these days?" Wen Jingzhou looked up at him, "Have you found out where the imperial decree left by the late emperor is?"

"Not yet," Gu Huaisheng stood up, looked down at the entire map, raised his hand and clicked on three places, "But if I had to guess, it should be one of these three places."

Wen Jingzhou looked at the three places he pointed out one by one, namely the study room, the bedroom in the main courtyard, and Quan Chengen's private treasury.

Gu Huaisheng withdrew his hand and put it behind his back. He stared at the map with a cold gaze, as if he saw someone who had a deep hatred through the map, "These places are heavily guarded, and I haven't had a chance to explore them yet. Give me some time. I will steal the imperial decree."

"Okay, be careful," Wen Jingzhou carefully folded the map, opened a hidden compartment on the Duobao Pavilion in front of Gu Huaisheng, and put the map in, "I know the map of the whole government has been printed. It’s in your mind, this must be drawn for me, so I’m not going to be polite, just ask if you need it, and I’ll definitely help you.”

"Well," Gu Huaisheng nodded, but did not sit down, but took two steps towards the center of the room, clasped his hands behind his back, and seemed a little nervous, "The person I asked you to inquire about...how is it?"

"Back then, General Jin was framed, and none of the more than 100 people in the whole government was spared. These things happened 14 years ago. It sounds not easy. Fortunately, General Jin won the hearts of the people. Up to now, it has not been completely forgotten by people," Wen Jingzhou sighed, "I inquired in every possible way, and even used the staff of my mother and concubine who stayed in Daliang, and finally got some information."

After a pause, Wen Jingzhou said: "When General Jin's accident happened, the eldest son Jin Xuanying was far away in the frontier army, so he was spared from any trouble. Since then, he has lived in seclusion for 11 years, but he was discovered three years ago. The little emperor Captured him, beheaded him for public display, and hung his head outside the city to warn the world..."

Thinking of those scenes, Gu Huaisheng felt a little uncomfortable, and could not help interrupting him: "I know all of this."

Wen Jingzhou sighed: "I know, when you sneaked from Pingguo to Xijing without telling my mother and concubine, I was the one who helped you steal the body of General Jin. Don't worry, what I want to say is that Jin The little general once married a wife when he was hiding among the people, and although he died of illness later, she left him a child, the little emperor didn't know about it, and now he is more than five years old."

"What?!" Gu Huaisheng turned around abruptly, took two steps excitedly, and pressed his hands on the table, "Is this true?!"

"Of course it is true," Wen Jingzhou looked at him like this, couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and said with nostalgia, "It's been a long time since I saw you showing such vivid emotions, and you haven't smiled since that incident , with a stern face all day long, the concubine mother said that you have knots in your heart, that's why you became like this, and you always persuade me to give in to you..."

Gu Huaisheng had also noticed that he had lost his composure, so he calmed down, and then suddenly heard him mention Princess Pinghuai, he couldn't help but feel guilty and grateful: "I still have to thank my aunt for taking care of me these years. If there is no aunt, Huaisheng would have already It’s a dead body on a mass grave.”

"I didn't want to hear you talk about this with your concubine mother." Wen Jingzhou shook his head and laughed, and changed the subject again, "It's just that although I found out that General Jin left behind a child, I couldn't find the child's identity. whereabouts……"

Seeing that Gu Huaisheng's face darkened again, Wen Jingzhou hurriedly said: "But don't worry, the reason why you can't find this child is because there was an old servant named Chen in the Jin family who escaped unharmed by going back to his hometown to visit relatives. I have been taking care of the little general Jin, and after the little general was arrested, the old servant hid with the child."

Hearing that the child was fine, Gu Huaisheng let out a sigh of relief, and Wen Jingzhou continued: "I will continue to help you find out the whereabouts of this child. In addition, when the Jin Mansion was confiscated, all children under the age of ten were demoted to low He did not belong to the rank of official slaves, and General Jin has a son and a daughter, so he is still alive."

"Where are they?"

Gu Huaisheng didn't even ask for his name, but it was because General Jin only had one son, Jin Xuanying, and he was the only one who had good friends with him, and the other children didn't have deep friendships.

But after all, they are the descendants of the Jin family. The Jin family is full of loyal and powerful families, and none of them are alive.

"The girl's name is Jin Shuangshuang. In the 'Jin Lin'er' teaching workshop, she seems to have been taken care of by someone these years, and she is doing well. As for the other person..." Wen Jingzhou paused at this point, With a look of embarrassment on his face, he stared at Gu Huaisheng, his eyes flickering, "The other person was first bought by the second son of the Minister of the Household Department to play for a while after being demoted to low status, and then he was given away not long after, and he went to several houses. Afterwards, he was thrown into a south hall. I sent someone to ask, but he said there was no such person. After further questioning, I found out that Quan Chengen bought it..."

Bought by Quan Chengen...

Gu Huaisheng's heart skipped a beat suddenly, and he felt ominous.

"what is his name?"

"My name is Jin Xuenian. When I was in the south hall, my nickname was Young Master Xue. Now I'm in my twenties."

——That man is just a cheap slave bought by our master.

——After the master found out that he still had a younger sister in the teaching workshop, he told him that if he died, he would take his younger sister to replace him, and he calmed down.

——Brother Xue is not in good health, so he can't come...

——"What's your name?" "Help me!"

Gu Huaisheng slumped heavily on the chair and closed his eyes abruptly, only to feel that the emotions that burst out of his chest in an instant were so strange and turbulent, remorse, pity, heartache, resentment, hatred, all these, almost overwhelmed him.

The descendants of the Jin family, the loyal descendants of the Jin family who were full of generals of the third generation, would be raped like this, living without life or death!Gu Huaisheng's eyes almost turned red with anger.

No wonder there are eyes like that.

It turned out that he was also from the Jin family.

Jin Xuenian, Jin Xuenian... At first, I thought that among the Jin family members of my own generation, I only remembered Jin Xuanying, but when I heard this name, a young boy's image clearly appeared in my mind. figure.

The Jin family has embraced martial arts for generations, regardless of their sons and daughters, they have learned martial arts since childhood, but when it was passed down to Jin Xuanying's generation, there was an exception, that is Jin Xuenian.

Since childhood, Jin Xuenian's talent in martial arts was inferior to that of her brothers and sisters, but she learned to read and write very quickly, so she was not loved by other Jin family peers. Even Jin Xuanying once complained to Gu Huaisheng this brother.

The memory of Jin Xuenian doesn't stop there.

In my memory, every time I went to the Jin Manor to play with Xuanying, there would be a young son of the Jin family standing next to him. A ball of fire, a beam of light, brilliant and warm, full of the vitality and passion of young people, and the spirit of a general who is unique to the Jin family, then Jin Xuenian is like a quiet pool, silent and restrained, as if in this young and immature An incompatible soul was stuffed into his body, making people wonder whether to say that he was young and mature, or that he was deep in thought.

Because of this, Jin Xuanying doesn't like this younger brother, and even Gu Huaisheng can't warm up to him, and it seems that he hasn't spoken a few words to him in his only memory, but unexpectedly, he thought he was just passing by. The fuzzy face, but when I think about it now, it is very clear.

Wen Jingzhou's voice brought Gu Huaisheng back from his memory.

"Jin Shuangshuang, I will find a way to rescue her, but that Jin Xuenian... You also know how powerful Quan Chengen is now, almost to the point of covering the sky with one hand. I'm afraid that this person is in his house..." Wen Jing The state is in a dilemma.

"I know, you don't have to blame yourself, you've helped me enough," Gu Huaisheng patted Wen Jingzhou on the shoulder, and didn't say that he had met Jin Xuenian. I'm afraid no one would want to publicize such an experience. "If you want to save Jin Xuenian, you must first solve Quan Chengen. As a descendant of the Jin family, Jin Xuenian still has the toughness in his bones. He will definitely be able to survive. With me in the whole house, I will never let him go." die."

Tuk Tuk-

Xue Zinu's brisk voice sounded outside the door: "Brother Gu, are you already looking at Shizi's new score?"

Gu Huaisheng and Wen Jingzhou looked at each other tacitly, and did not mention the previous topic again.

When the sun was about to set, Gu Huaisheng and Xue Zinu returned to the whole house with the new sheet music presented by Wen Jingzhou.Unsurprisingly, as soon as they returned to Xiyuan, people from the Quan Chengen sect came to invite them to play music.

The older Quan Chengen is, the more vigilant he becomes. Gu Huaisheng sneered, and after tidying up his clothes calmly, he took his jade flute to meet Xue Zinu, and followed the servant to go out.

This time, no outsiders were there, and the dining place was only in the flower hall of the main courtyard—it is said to be a courtyard, but it is actually more like a luxurious palace, with carved railings and jade, fragrant and beautiful women, which is better than the palaces in the imperial city And nothing less.

Gu Huaisheng suppressed the nausea in his heart, lowered his eyes and walked into the hall side by side with Xue Zinu meekly, and knelt down in the center: "I have seen Zhongguan."

As soon as you enter the room, you can smell a pungent bloody smell, which is even more disgusting when mixed with various fragrance powders.Gu Huaisheng looked sideways slightly by lowering his head, and at a glance he saw a bloody person curled up motionless in the open space beside him.

It was Jin Xuenian, who else could it be besides Jin Xuenian.

The tingling pain caused by the fingernails piercing into the palm made him suppress the anger and hatred that was about to burst out. Those bones and blood that were smashed and swallowed will one day be repaid a hundredfold by the person sitting on it!

"Get up," Eunuch Quan said lazily, "I heard that you got a good song when you returned to Shizi's mansion today? I don't know what kind of song it is, which can make His Royal Highness summon you back."

"Returning to Zhongguanren, it is the only copy of "Fengchaoge" written by Bailuo people in the previous dynasty."

""Feng Chao Song"?" Eunuch Quan raised his voice slightly, as if he was interested, "Isn't this song already lost? The son is so lucky to find the only copy, and it will make the Sa family happy--you guys Will it play?"

Gu Huaisheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty knew that the middle officials wanted to hear it, so he detained us all afternoon to practice the song."

"Wonderful!" Eunuch Quan was overjoyed, pointing to the open space beside the house, "You play it for the Sa family to hear."

Gu Huaisheng and Xue Zinu agreed, then walked to the place he pointed and sat down to start playing. The melodious music sounded, and Eunuch Quan squinted his eyes. He tapped his fingers on the table according to the rhythm, as if he was completely immersed into the tune.

After the piece was played calmly and the reward was received as usual, Gu Huaisheng led Xue Zinu and walked out steadily, but no one looked at the person who was lying dead in the middle of the room from the beginning to the end.

Until he was out of sight of the whole house, Gu Huaisheng suddenly staggered. Xue Zinu was taken aback, and quickly supported him, but he felt sticky wet in his palm, and a faint smell of rust wafted into the night sky, making him Xue Zinu froze in place, and couldn't tell whether the smell of blood came from Gu Huaisheng or just his own hallucination.

"Brother Gu, are you okay..."

"I'm fine," Gu Huaisheng withdrew his hand and hid it in the wide cuff, but his voice was a little hoarse, "I fell down in the afternoon, and there was a crack in the palm of my hand. It was originally a scab, but it cracked again for some reason. up"

"Why don't you say anything when you're injured, I'll bandage it up for you, Brother Gu." Xue Zinu said anxiously.

"Thank you, but there's no need, it's not a big deal." Gu Huaisheng politely declined.

Gu Huaisheng made an excuse that he was not feeling well, and locked himself in the house as soon as he returned to Xiyuan, and waited until the silence was gone before he carried the priceless Yulu Muscle-Growing Cream in his arms, and quietly opened the door, under the cover of the night Headed towards the northwest corner without a sound.
