His Majesty And Ministers

Xu Yuying came out of her boudoir with a flute case, raised her head and heard the guqin, she frowned: "Is that madman again?"

"Yes." The little girl followed her, "Often at this time, he would sit in that courtyard and play the piano."

"Madman." Xu Yuying stroked the flute case in her hand, "It's a pity that he has a good face."

Gu Yun was following the sound of the music to find it slowly, the sound of the piano fluttered up and down, and the playing was messy, but it moved his heart.

As we walked, the surrounding scenery gradually became desolate and dilapidated, and the three characters "Hongqinzhai" suddenly appeared in front of our eyes. Under the plaque was a crumbling red lacquered courtyard door, vermilion mottled and extremely dirty.

And the sound of the piano is only separated by a wall.

Gu Yun didn't push it away in a hurry, but stood quietly for a while.When the sound of the piano gradually died down, he stepped forward and tapped twice.

"Gu Yun, who is in the Gu Mansion in the Southwest, came here after hearing the sound of the piano. I would like to see you."

There was silence at the door.

Gu Yun waited for a while, then raised his voice and said, "Then just push the door open and come in?"

It was still silent.

Gu Yun pressed his palm on the door knocker, paused, and pushed it away.

The first thing that catches the eye is a sycamore tree in full bloom, even in the dark night, it is still as brilliant as a crown.

A person sat quietly under the flower branch, his hair was not tied up, his clothes were torn, and his long bangs blocked his side face.If you look closely from Gu Yun's position, you will be amazed at his thin figure and dead branch-like wrist.

Gu Yun's Adam's apple twitched: "You..."

The man stood up slowly holding the piano, turned his back to Gu Yun, and walked into the room step by step.He was skinny, and the clothes supported by the skeleton were empty, as if he was about to drift away.

"Wait!" Gu Yun took two steps forward, "Qi Qiao?"

The man paused.

Gu Yun said firmly: "You are Qi Qiao, I recognize you."

The man turned his head and looked at him with a panicked expression, but Gu Yun was taken aback.

His cheeks were sunken, his pupils were dim, and his lips were white. He was totally different from the young master of the Qi family who had handsome eyes, eyebrows, and literary beauty.But the appearance brought by nature is still there, the long eyelashes are drooping, and the eyebrows and eyes are gentle.

Even if he wears rough clothes and messy hair, he does not hide his national color.No wonder Xu Huang insisted on rushing into the mansion regardless of his reputation.

"You..." Gu Yun was about to take a step forward, but the man had already walked into the room with the piano in his arms, and the door was closed with a "squeak".

"Master Gu."

Gu Yun turned around, but it was Xu Yuying who stood there with a forced smile and said, "Why are you here, my lord?"

Gu Yun turned his face slightly: "I was attracted by the sound of the piano for a while."

Xu Yuying came over with a flute box and said: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, son, go back to the original place quickly, if this person goes crazy, he will beat anyone he sees."

When she said this, she also expressed concern, but Gu Yun couldn't get used to it, so she folded her sleeves and said, "It's not too late now, and I don't want to bother you anymore, so I'll go back to the post , Miss, go back to your room and rest."

Xu Yuying's expression changed: "But..."

"I'll take my leave." Gu Yun nodded slightly, turned around and left.If he is in a good mood on weekdays, it's okay to be polite, but if he is unhappy, he doesn't have to save face for his family.

Just walking outside the wall, I still couldn't help looking up to have a look, but I only saw a sycamore flower that was as bright as snow.

Let's talk about Jing Ye.

In the middle of the night, all three fell asleep in a clearing in the woods, only the bright bonfire kept beating.

Jing Ye fell asleep, and suddenly felt someone touching his wrist.Waking up in a haze, what is in front of him is Yuan Mo who followed him during the Qianqiu Festival night.

Jing Ye: "!"

Yuan Mo raised his hand to signal silence, and asked him to lower his head to see clearly the wrist guards tied around his wrists. He tapped the place near the back of his hands, and looked at him again.

Jing Ye: "..." What the hell?

These movements only took a few seconds, and then he heard a very fast sound of breaking through the air, it was Jin Jue who was holding the whip in his hand and swung it over.

Yuan Mo took Jing Ye to the side to hide, and drew his sword to meet the whip with strong wind.Jing Ye felt his vision dim, and it was Yu Heng who forced him over.

Thinking of Yuan Mo's light tap on the wrist guard just now, Jing Ye raised his wrist subconsciously to block the five fingers he had captured, and then his wrist was grasped, tightened, and then loosened suddenly.

The man staggered back a few steps, expressionless.

Jin Jue was taken aback by this situation, and his movements slowed down a bit, losing the momentum, then he knelt down on one knee and blocked Yuan Mo's sword with the body of his whip.

This riding whip was actually made of finely crushed fine iron, when the two soldiers touched each other, sparks were produced when the two soldiers rubbed against each other.

Yuan Mo leaned over and pressed his sword, watching him speak slowly.

"This gentleman gifted it a few days ago, and now I will return the original thing."

Jin Jue raised his eyebrows, a smile formed on the corner of his mouth, and he blocked Yuan Mo's blade with his hands.The latter took a few steps back, but still raised his sword and stabbed towards him.

The two were fighting in the open space, sword lights flickered and whip shadows flew.

Jing Ye saw that Jin Jue couldn't pull back, and Yu couldn't stop him anymore, so he ran under the tree and untied Hei Yao's reins, and got on his horse.

Yuan Mo took a step back and shouted, "Xiang Nan!"

southward.Jing Ye looked at the surrounding woods, it was pitch black, which side is the south...

The wise and decisive emperor hesitated only for a second, then resolutely pulled the reins, raised Obsidian's hooves, and galloped towards the north.

Yuan Mo: "..."

"Are you distracted?" While breathing, Jin Jue was already approaching, "I used the poisonous needle last time, this time... let me learn from it, the so-called Yuan Jiajian."

Yuan Mo pursed his thin lips, and greeted him with his sword.

Jing Ye reined in the horse and ran for a while, and then let go of the rein, letting Hei Yao run wildly in the woods.

The night was dark, and I don't know how long I ran, but my vision gradually became brighter, but I had already run outside the forest.

Jing Ye tugged at the reins, and Hei Yao obediently slowed down.

He couldn't help rubbing his face.

Now... where is this.

Jing Ye looked around, but he couldn't see the road, it was probably a deserted wilderness.

He glanced back, and suddenly saw a cluster of firewood burning in an open space far away.

A passing traveler?

Jing Ye hesitated for a while, and slowly rode forward.Anyway, I don't know where I ran to, or how far away from Yuan Mo, I'd better find someone to ask.If the other party has any unforeseen actions, the worst is to sit on the horse and run away at any time.

The horse's hoof kicked and walked to the cluster of firewood. There was a person lying on his back beside the fire, as if he had fallen asleep.

Jing Ye said, "This brother?"

The man slowly opened his eyes.

"I originally stayed in the forest." Jing Ye pointed to the not far away, "I got up at night and lost my way accidentally, I hope my brother can point me in the direction..."

It was a man in his 40s, with a slender figure, and he sat up slowly after hearing the words.

"..." Jing Ye suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart, and pulled his horse back two steps.

The man looked at him and smiled: "Jing Ye?"
