Broken Iron Clothes

=====================

Jiang Shiqing glanced at him sideways and said, "This is not just for me."

Gu Nanxing couldn't deny it and shrugged.

"Have you been to Meng Xia's place today?" Jiang Shiqing asked.

"You're invited," Gu Nanxing said "tsk" a few times, "it's not easy."

Jiang Shiqing imitated his appearance just now, and also shrugged at him.Gu Nanxing was delighted to see it, and asked, "Tell me, what do you want to ask?"

"Yi Qinchen," Jiang Shiqing said, "Have you known him before?"

Gu Nanxing suddenly stopped laughing, lay down and crossed his legs, and said: "It's true that the eyes can't see, and I can't say about the rest."

Jiang Shiqing looked at his dangling boots and asked, "How did you think of bringing him back?"

"Thinking that I can really change my nature to become a Bodhisattva, and I think others are pretty good, just..." Gu Nanxing faltered a few times, and wrinkled his nose at him, "That's good, you understand?"

Jiang Shiqing turned his head away: "I don't understand."

Gu Nanxing didn't care about his pretending to be stupid, and said, "It's good to be the same as your general sees you."

Jiang Shiqing said: "Don't talk about others, what are you looking for?"

Gu Nanxing looked at the night sky where he couldn't find the edge, and fell down again: "He has good skills, I saw it with my own eyes."

As he said that, he laughed at himself again: "Thinking about it, I was also dizzy. I didn't find out the details of the family, so I brought it home. I thought I found a good brother for Ji Dong, but I don't know if I fell for him. What about the trap?"

"Until you find out, do you intend to let him stay here?" Jiang Shiqing asked.

"Stay here," Gu Nanxing waved his palms in front of his eyes, "He saved my life, and I will heal these eyes with him."

Jiang Shiqing stopped talking, Gu Nanxing couldn't hear the sound, he poked his head to look at him, but saw the man staring into the distance again in a daze.

After a while, Jiang Shiqing suddenly said, "Did you get injured in Qinzhou?"

"It's just a fever, there's nothing to mention," Gu Nanxing frowned, then sat up again, and said, "But if he plots against you and Yemenzhuang, I will kill him with my own hands. If he apologizes with death, then Ji Dong will..."

He suddenly felt that entrusting Jidong to Jiang Shiqing was unrealistic, and Suguo was still young, so Zhong Dingshan was suitable, but he would have to ask Jidong to take care of him in the future... Gu Nanxing thought about the future seriously, as if It's as if I'm really going to die.

"By the way," he touched Jiang Shiqing's elbow and asked, "How about that kid named He Xiao?"

Without even thinking about it, Jiang Shiqing replied directly, "Go and ask yourself."

"You can't..."

"Southbound." Jiang Shiqing turned his head and looked at him seriously, so that Gu Nanxing's words were choked in his throat and he could not speak.

Jiang Shiqing said: "Have you ever thought that Zhongqiu was the secret guard back then. Since he already knew that Gu Qinghe sent Cigu to Qinzhou 11 years ago, why did he stay in Qinzhou for nearly two years before he suddenly sent you a letter saying About Cigu? Why did Yi Qinchen appear beside Cigu just then?"

In fact, Gu Nanxing had thought about this coincidence, but he just didn't want to think about it because it was related to Yi Qinchen.

Except for Jiang Shiqing's intercession back then, Yi Qinchen was the only one who had never abandoned him, so he soon became dependent on that person, and was even willing to use self-deception to erase all doubts about him.

He just wanted to keep Yi Qinchen by his side with peace of mind.But Yi Qinchen really lied to him.

"Thought about it," Gu Nanxing said, "How could Cigu, a person who escaped for her life, bring strangers home at will? No matter how kind and kind Yi Qinchen looks, she shouldn't be defenseless at all, unless she knows Only the details of this person will allow him to stay by my side for several months."

Jiang Shiqing asked: "Then what do you think, since he appeared outside Zhongqiu's tavern by such a coincidence, and he is someone Cigu trusts, then who is he and what can he plan?"

The only connection between Zhongqiu and Cigu is the secret guard. If all these are man-made coincidences, then it is better to say that he wants to be close to Gu Nanxing than Yi Qinchen wants to get close to Yemenzhuang.

Jiang Shiqing made a bold guess, because when Jiang Yu changed his name and surname for him back then, he took the homonym of his own surname and changed his surname to "Jiang", so it is very likely that Gu Nanxing did the same. The homonym of Qinghe's surname was changed to "Gu".

"You," Jiang Shiqing looked at him very calmly, and asked, "Did you go to Yingzhou because the secret guard wanted to reveal his identity 11 years ago?"

Gu Nanxing was stunned, then twitched the corners of his mouth, and looked away: "What are you guessing here? Aren't you talking about other people's business? Why did it involve me?"

"You know my real name and surname, and you know my past, but my understanding of you is only limited to the past nine years, so it took me a day to figure something out, and now I want to exchange this jug of wine for you. To be honest," Jiang Shiqing asked, "is your real name Gu Nanxing?"

In the Governor's Mansion, Lu Tianrui fiddled with the bloody clothes and ropes found in Hu Suang's room, and said, "What do you say about these things found in Hu Suang's room?"

Yuan Mucheng sneered: "Recently, the methods used to frame people in these cases have become more and more stupid. It's really hasty to use a bloody coat and a rope to prove that he is the perpetrator who dumped the body."

Today, after the disturbance in the Guozijian, all the students were released, and Yuan Mucheng also found an opportunity to tell Lu Tianrui about Xu Yixu, and Lu Tianrui felt a chill all over his body.

"You still think Xu Yixu has a problem?" Lu Tianrui asked.

Yuan Mucheng said: "I don't think so, I am sure."

Lu Tianrui said helplessly: "But Hu Sang was really aggressive, and there were hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at him. Xu Yixu is indeed the one who killed to quell the turmoil. It is understandable to say that he is protecting himself."

Yuan Mucheng asked: "I heard that he is Xu Taiwei's student?"

"That's right," Lu Tianrui said, "If there is Taiwei Xu as a guarantor, no one can raise objections if he is called a hero."

Now Yuan Mucheng was able to confirm that Xu Yixu was the one who followed Jiang Shiqing that night and took Cui Cheng's body away.But Xu Yixu is a mere schoolmaster, with no money and power, and it is impossible for Feng to reveal the Sand Snake to him, unless he has a backer behind him, so Xu Bin and Feng The matter of the alliance can basically be settled, but it is not known whether Xu Bing and Xu Yixu are in the same group.

Yuan Mucheng pondered: "Isn't this his purpose, but if Taiwei Xu hadn't participated in this matter, he shouldn't be so stupid that he couldn't detect the clues, but he would be willing to be a stepping stone for him to get to the top."

Lu Tianrui said: "Everything depends on what the court will say tomorrow."

-

At night, after Xu Yixu was questioned for a day in the Dudu's mansion, he took a shower and changed clothes before going to the Taiwei's mansion in full clothes.

Xu Bing was sorting out the pen and ink on the case in the study. After hearing a few taps, he glanced at the figure reflected on the door, and said, "Come in."

Xu Yixu took a bowl of fish soup just out of the pot, carefully placed it on the table, and respectfully said: "Sir, the humidity has been heavy these days and nights, and this crucian carp soup is cooked just right. You can take a few sips while it's hot to dispel dampness." gas."

Xu Bin got up and walked to the table, sat down and looked at the bowl of milky fish soup, and said, "Zhengyan, you have suffered in the Imperial Prison these days."

Xu Yixu lowered his head and smiled lightly: "Sir, you speak seriously."

Xu Bing scooped up the soup with a spoon, and said in a calm tone, "Is the injury on your neck all right?"

Xu Yixu said: "It's just a few scratches, it's nothing serious, Mr. Lao is concerned."

Xu Bing blew on the hot air on the fish soup, and looked up at him with a drunkenness, and said: "This Hu Chen died at your hand, it can be regarded as a warning to others, and the Guozijian, which has been in trouble for two days, has finally settled down." Now, you have to take this merit."

There is no deep meaning in these words, because Xu Yixu has never been a person who can handle a knife in Xu Bin's eyes.

Xu Yixu didn't see the slightest bit of panic: "It was a blessing in disguise. The student almost lost his life. In the panic, he raised a knife and struck. When he woke up, he still had lingering fears. He almost forgot the one thing he wanted to tell the teacher."

Xu Bin sipped the soup and asked, "What's the matter?"

Xu Yixu secretly looked at Xu Bin's expression, and said, "Lu Xiu discovered a person's whereabouts a few days ago. You must be interested, sir."

Xu Bing looked up at him, but didn't speak.

Xu Yixu leaned down and said softly, "Jiang Yu, Jiang Yuchuan."

Xu Bing frowned suddenly, Xu Yixu saw it, and then said: "If you give the master's permission, the student will immediately ask Lu Xiu to bring him back."

Like his expression, Xu Bing's hand froze.

Indistinctly, two silhouettes chattering and applauding under the lamp flashed in front of my eyes, and when the candle flame flickered, those silhouettes were burnt up and dispersed like smoke.

The spoon in his hand suddenly dropped from the bowl, and there was a crisp knock, which also brought Xu Bing back to his senses.

He lowered his head and blinked, endured a moment of sourness, and replied, "So Liu Zhaoye might not be dead yet."

"It should be." Xu Yixu responded, and when Xu Bin didn't notice, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

After the lunch break, Gu Nanxing came to deliver the last medicine to Yi Qinchen.

"Did your eyes feel better in the past few days?" Gu Nanxing asked.

Yi Qinchen replied: "I can see the light more than before, but when there is no light at night, it is still the same as before."

"Mr. Lin Meng said that if he could see clearly a year ago, he will be able to see clearly. There are still several months to recuperate, so there is no rush." ​​Gu Nanxing packed the medicine bowl and sat down opposite him.

Listening to Gu Nanxing's movements, Yi Qinchen turned to his side.Gu Nanxing saw that some strands of hair on his forehead hadn't been tied well today, and they were sticking out. He wanted to stretch out his hand to straighten him up, but he held back his hand and said, "After you see it clearly, what are your plans?"

"Go home first, and then..." Yi Qinchen paused and asked, "Will you still be in Yancheng?"

Gu Nanxing said: "It's hard to say, where is your home? I've never heard you mention it."

Yi Qinchen lowered his eyes and replied, "Let's go to the south."

Gu Nanxing's attitude became much colder, and he asked, "What does 'ba' mean?"

Yi Qinchen sensed his emotions, forced a smile, and said, "There is nothing to worry about at home, let's not mention it."

Gu Nanxing gently picked out a teacup, placed it horizontally and pushed it forward, the cup rolled to the edge of the table and hit the ground.Yi Qinchen curled his fingers slightly, he understood Gu Nanxing's temptation by heart, so he could only respond in silence.

In order to prevent Yi Qinchen from falling, Gu Nanxing specially spread a thick layer of felt in the room, and there was only a muffled sound when the cup fell to the ground.

Yi Qinchen heard the sound and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I accidentally touched it."

Gu Nanxing looked into his eyes, full of hopelessness, because Yi Qinchen still didn't intend to confess to him.

He bent down and picked up the teacup, put it on the table and walked out the door with an empty bowl: "You should rest first."

"Can I follow you in the future?" Yi Qinchen tightened his shirt.

Gu Nanxing stopped in his tracks, took a deep breath, and then pretended to be relaxed, "I have Ji Dong next to me to take care of, Lin Song doesn't know what's going on, you don't have any kung fu, I can't guarantee whether I can keep you unscathed next time."

"If I..."

Gu Nanxing interrupted: "I'm such a desperate person, don't follow me."
