Although Old General Gu was wrinkling his old face, seeing him holding the charcoal basin and putting it in front of the child, Gu Fang knew that his father still liked the child very much.

"Go and offer incense sticks to Uncle Lu, and get out after you're done, don't waste your time here." Seeing him giggling beside him, Gu Huan couldn't help kicking him.

"Yes, Dad!" Gu Fang shouted, and Sa Yazi ran away.

There is a memorial tablet in a small ancestral hall in the backyard, which is Uncle Lu Zheng in his father's mouth.

All the ancestors of the Gu family were enshrined in the General's Mansion. After his father severed ties with him, no one took away the tablet except Uncle Lu's.

Lu Zheng is a painter. It is said that he is not only good at painting, but also has a good appearance.

Although they called him Uncle Lu, they had never met before.As long as he can remember, every year on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, he would offer incense sticks to Uncle Lu. After a long time, it became a habit.

He also once asked his mother, who is this Uncle Lu who made his father so reluctant to let go.

His mother only thought that this was someone who could make Dad feel guilty for a lifetime.

After incense, Gu Fang was driven away, but Gu Xiaobai was left for dinner, and his father said he would keep Xiaobai for a few more days.

The sky was getting dark, and the cold wind wrapped in fine snowflakes torment wantonly.

But at this moment, in the Cangchun Building, there are singing of Yingying and swallows, and red lights hanging high.

Gu Fang walked back against the wind and snow, and the crisp or soft laughter of the women in the building seemed to wrap his steps with warmth.

"I heard that there is a new group of foreign flower girls here, but they are very exciting!" A middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears said lewdly to his partner.

The other person's cloudy eyes lit up, and he wished his saliva would flow out: "Really? Then we will have a good experience today."

As they spoke, the two stepped into this gentle town one after the other.

Gu Fang frowned slightly, when he mentioned foreign girls, he couldn't help but think of Xiaobai's mother.

Although his appearance was vague, he could never forget those familiar eyes.

If she didn't have such eyes, she wouldn't have caused him to make a big mistake in a daze.

Seemingly unable to bear the ghostly weather, Gu Fang turned on his toes and walked towards the Cangchun Building.

He didn't plan to stay longer, he just went home after warming up for a while, promised his junior brother to watch over him, and he would never break his promise.

Jun Ruohan looked at the cold dishes on the table with a scary expression.

Lu Sheng didn't dare to make a sound, until Eunuch Xi hurried in.

"Your Majesty, something happened to General Gu!"

Lu Sheng's eyelids twitched, and as expected, Jun Ruohan stood up abruptly: "What happened?"

"I hurt my leg!" Xi Gong said fairly.

"How was it hurt? By whom?"

"This..." Eunuch Xi hesitated, "Yes, I was injured in the Cangchun Building."

"Where is that place?" Jun Ruohan asked.

"It's... Goulan Courtyard!" After Eunuch Xi finished speaking, his head dropped even lower, and even Lu Sheng shrank his neck.

Jun Ruohan pursed her thin lips even tighter, clenched her fists tightly, and said through gritted teeth: "Please go to the imperial physician and follow me to the general's mansion."

Sure enough, this person couldn't rest for a moment, and he always felt unhappy if he didn't have injuries on his body.

"Oh, it hurts, it hurts... Take it easy. Is my leg broken?"

Jun Ruohan braved the wind and snow to come to the General's Mansion, but before he even got to the bedroom, he heard a howl from inside.

"Brother-in-law, I haven't touched your leg yet!" Bai Yu spread her hands.

With a bang, the door was pushed open, and someone walked in with a serious face.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?" Seeing Jun Ruohan's unkind face, Gu Fang had a bad intuition.

"Come and see your joke!" Jun Ruohan said with a tense face.

Gu Fang curled his lips and said nothing.

Bai Yu stood up and bowed to Jun Ruohan: "Caomin has seen the emperor."

Jun Ruohan heard him call brother-in-law outside the house, so she probably knew his identity. At this moment, she just glanced at him and raised her hand: "Excuse me."

Bai Yu didn't seem to have any curiosity about the emperor of Yue Kingdom, so he just quietly retreated out.

"Go and see if General Gu's leg is broken." After Jun Ruohan finished speaking, the imperial physician came to the bedside behind him.

"What if it didn't break?" Gu Fang whispered.

"Then interrupt." Jun Ruohan said viciously.

Gu Fang clutched his trousers, not letting the imperial doctor see it: "It's broken, it's broken."

The leg was injured, and the man still refused to live in peace, propped up on the bed and writhed like a loach, trying not to let the imperial doctor touch him.

Jun Ruohan was so annoyed that he strode forward to sit on the side of the couch, and clamped his fragile back of the neck.Gu Fang was taken aback, feeling that his back was pressed against half of the man's chest.

Due to Jun Ruohan's identity, Gu Fang couldn't disobey his will, and finally calmed down.

After a while, the tips of the ears turned red.

Rolling up the trousers, I saw that the ankle of the right foot was already red and swollen.

Jun Ruohan frowned at just one glance, feeling a little uncomfortable and feeling that this person deserved it, so he couldn't help but want to humiliate him: "Did you fight with the flower girl in Cangchun Tower? You hurt like this..."

His younger brother would humiliate no one.

"Then how can I, I'm going to help when I see injustice." Gu Fang said.

He told Jun Ruohan what happened in Cangchun Tower.

At that time, he was really going to the foreign dancers, but by chance, a newcomer was listed today, so he couldn't help but join in the fun.

The newcomer's nickname is Liu Yan, and her immature appearance of sixteen or seventeen is dressed up in a coquettish and kitsch way, but even so, she still can't conceal her original face carved with pink and jade.

Liu Yan is the Qing servant in the Cangchun Tower, who only sells his art but not his body.But her face still attracted quite a few people to yell at her cu'y:e on the spot, and what's more unfortunate is that among these people there is a stubborn stubble that no one can afford.

Wang Shiming is Liu Taiwei's nephew, relying on his uncle's power to run rampant in Shangdu for many years, everyone regards him as a plague god who cannot be offended, and never dares to approach others when he has nothing to do.

However, Gu Fang was certainly not among these people.

Long before he left Shangdu to garrison Fengming Pass, he beat this Wang Shiming.

What a coincidence today, it hit his hand again.

That Wang Shiming didn't let her go, and what's more, he took advantage of the alcohol to belittle her in public.

Brothel women, no matter they are pure or red men, are just playthings for people to enjoy. No one will uphold justice for a brothel woman, and they are more likely to watch the excitement or even make a fuss beside them.

Gu Fang couldn't keep watching, and it wasn't the first time he had been beaten.

In the chaos, he didn't know who tripped over the table and injured his leg.

"Your Majesty, General Gu's ankle is dislocated, and I will fix it for him. It should be fine after a month's recuperation," said the imperial physician.

"One month?" The two said at the same time.

There are still seven days until the selection meeting of the Zhangjian Division.

Gu Fang suddenly remembered the look he gave Jiang Ling when he met Jiang Ling on the street today.

Seeing his frown slightly, Jun Ruohan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Does it hurt?"

As he spoke, he asked the imperial physician to take it easy.

Gu Fang shook his head: "It's probably not an accident that I will be injured in the Cangchun Building today. I met Jiang Ling on the street."

"Jiangling?"

"Well, I said it was such a coincidence that the two clients had to stop chatting in front of me, and they said there was a dancer from a foreign race..."

Speaking of foreign dancers, Jun Ruohan naturally thought of Gu Fang's romantic debt: "You came in because you heard there were foreign dancers?"

Gu Fang didn't know the deep meaning of Jun Ruohan's question, so he nodded hurriedly: "That's right!"

"If you didn't hurt your leg today, would you still be planning to have both children?" Jun Ruohan got up and shook his sleeves.

Hey?Why are you still angry?

Gu Fang was a little confused: "Xiaobai is really lonely by himself. I have only one child in my family. Fortunately, I had you and Brother Su when I was young. But, after all, I don't know how to take care of children, so I don't have this idea yet. .

Jun Ruohan didn't care about him for the time being because he was still injured.

It seems that the Zhang Jiansi will not let Gu Fang have a chance to go in no matter what.

After the imperial doctor left, Jun Ruohan stood by the bed and thought for a long time, and finally said, "You don't need to go to the selection meeting."

"Wh...why?" Gu Fang remembered wanting to stand up, but the foot hurt as soon as it hit the ground, and he fell back down again.

Jun Ruohan glanced at his leg: "Unless you want to be lame for the rest of your life, give me your name."

He knew that Jun Ruohan's real purpose of recalling him was not to let him be a personal bodyguard by his side to protect his safety, but to enter the Zhangjian Division, so that the Zhangjian Division's black and white power could be used by him.

Because of his leg, Jun Ruohan decided to give up this plan. To be honest, he was a little moved in his heart.

"Or, let's wait until that day to see, maybe my bones are so good that it only takes a few days to recover?" Gu Fang said.

It is his duty to be a courtier to share the worries of the king, and they also have a relationship of brothers and sisters. He should help him with all his strength.

"Don't say too much, bring it here." Jun Ruohan stretched out a clean and slender palm in front of him, not to be questioned.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Fang picked up a small box next to the bed and opened it, and put the name certificate inside in Jun Ruohan's hand.

When Su Yanqing gave him this broken sign back then, he avoided it like a snake and scorpion, even looking at it even made him feel uncomfortable, but now he seems to be inseparable.

Jun Ruohan tucked the certificate into his waist: "Rest early and recuperate well. I'm still waiting for senior brother to watch the night."

Gu Fang didn't sleep well, firstly because he was afraid that he would sleep badly and press the wound, and secondly because he was worrying about the selection of Zhang Jiansi.

What was even worse was that when he woke up with black eye circles the next day, the first person he saw was actually Jiang Ling.

Gu Fang was taken aback: "You, you, who let you in."

This is too frightening, the huge general's mansion unexpectedly put such a dangerous person into his dormitory ostentatiously.

What if this person has evil intentions and kills him directly?

"I heard that the general is injured, I'll visit." Jiang Ling had a kind smile on his sinister face, which made his scalp tingle.

Arrogant, simply too arrogant.

Thinking about it with his toes at this moment, he knew that his guess was right, what happened last night was planned by Jiang Ling alone.
