General, he's cheating again

The rain fell along the cracks of the tiles and fell in front of the corridor, forming a rain curtain. The killer who was lurking in the capital stood in a dark corner, looked up at the gloomy sky through the rain curtain, and the corners of his lips curled up. A smile of excitement.

They like such dark and cloudy weather. They hide in the corners of the dirty market and smell the rusty and bloody smell of copper coins, and their blood will swell and get excited. They are like devils at night and will let you go when you are not paying attention. Cries of pain, weeping entreaties.

At this moment, on the eve of the storm, they secretly restrained all their crazy thoughts and suppressed their excitement.

However, what they didn't realize was that a group of people who looked like shadows were already hiding around them, waiting to crush them under their feet when they rose up to riot.

In the wind and rain, a masked man in black wearing a bamboo hat walked into Gu's mansion softly.

Leng Ji heard the movement in the front yard and moved away instantly, only to see a masked man appearing in the yard.

"Deputy envoy."

When the masked man walked down the corridor, Leng Ji immediately cupped his hands and saluted.

"The people in the building have been settled in the city. What about the landlord, take me to see him."

Taking off the hat on his head, the masked man's voice was cold.

Leng Ji answered "Yes" in a deep voice, and then led the man to the front of the inner hall.

At that time, brother and sister Gu Zhenzheng and Qin Qingrong and Qin Xiaoxiao were writing a painting, and the three of them laughed in unison behind the rain curtain, forming a scene of peace and happiness.

From the corner of his eyes, he noticed the figure standing in front of the courtyard. Gu Zhen and Qin Qingrong greeted each other quietly, then went out with their hands behind their backs and walked towards the backyard by themselves.

The masked man and Leng Ji also dodged to the corridor and followed closely behind.

The three met in a gazebo. Gu Zhen sat on the bench in the gazebo with his sleeves slanted. He raised his eyes and looked at the masked man with a faint smile on his face. .”

"The landlord's order, the subordinates must obey."

The masked man put his hands on his back. He looked at the rain scene outside the pavilion, and his voice was cold when he spoke, "May I ask where the two people who painted with the host just now came from?"

"Qin Qingrong, the son of Qin Yi, who was a political adviser in the former dynasty."

Gu Zhen vaguely sensed the murderous look on the masked man and reminded him: "You know he is my sweetheart, the deputy envoy probably wants to beat the mandarin duck."

Unexpectedly, Gu Zhen's senses were so keen, the masked man subconsciously withdrew his murderous aura and said bluntly: "If the landlord wants to stay with him forever, I'm afraid you will encounter many obstacles.

The subordinates think that the landlord should focus on the matter of revenge now, so as to avoid complications. "

"Don't worry, I have my own measure."

He won't throw himself into love like Song Xun, but he can't give up on Qin Qingrong, so no matter what situation he encounters, he must come up with a solution that balances both worlds.

"Okay, this subordinate trusts the landlord."

Knowing that Gu Zhen had his own plans, the masked man didn't ask any further questions.However, he came here this time to tell Gu Zhen, "My subordinates have heard that the current Holy Majesty's temperament has changed drastically, and now he is becoming more and more absurd.

If things continue like this, the world will be in chaos.

The subordinates believe that the landlord should take advantage of this chaos to replace him, as if the people of Li were suffering in his hands. "

"I have no intention of being the lord of the world, and I even want to stay away from the capital for a while after the world is stable and stop thinking about intrigue."

Gu Zhen's expression was calm when he spoke, thinking that the emperor was only temporarily deceived by slander, and when he helped the emperor clean up the mess, he should be able to live a stable life for a few years.

"Lord, since the blood of the royal family flows through your body, it means that you will never be able to be stable." The masked man's eyes darkened, "Because you will always be feared by the lord of the world unless you replace him. "

"Hmph, I'm afraid the old man heard a lot of things like that back then.

But didn't he endure it again and again for my mother and me in the end? "

Gu Zhen didn't want to say any more, and his expression was tinged with sentimentality, "This is what I am most grateful to the old man for, it's his choice that gave me at least a happy childhood memory.

To be honest, life is exhausting for me.If I can really spend the rest of my life in peace, I hope that the days to come will be happy and peaceful. "

"The landlord's idea is still too extravagant."

The masked man and Gu Zhen looked at each other seriously and said: "You must know that if the emperor continues to be stupid, then the landlord must take the road of seeking power and usurping the throne."

After returning to the inner hall, Gu Zhen walked to Qin Qingrong's side and silently watched Qin Qingrong's earnest painting, with a smile on his lips unconsciously.

Qin Qingrong was hairy from being stared at by Gu Zhen, and finally couldn't stand the pressure. He raised his head and looked at Gu Zhen, frowning slightly funny and said, "What are you doing staring at me? You've stayed in one place for the past few days, and you haven't gotten tired of watching it?"

"What's the point of a few days, this general will never get tired of seeing you for the rest of his life."

Gu Zhen's love words came as soon as he opened his mouth, making Qin Qingrong choke.

After realizing it, Qin Qingrong turned his head to look at Qin Xiaoxiao, only to see that Qin Xiaoxiao was secretly looking at him secretly.

Sensing his brother's gaze, Qin Xiaoxiao put down his pen innocently and then curled his lips and said, "Brother is so stingy, and I didn't mean to listen to it. Well, I'll just go play somewhere else."

Stepping out wisely, Qin Xiaoxiao turned around and smiled meaningfully at Qin Qingrong when he reached the door, and then helped Qin Qingrong close the door very sensiblely.

Qin Qingrong couldn't help frowning slightly, he really didn't know what kind of messy things his sister was always thinking about.

"Xiaoxiao's temperament is pleasing, and she is also cute."

Gu Zhen nodded approvingly at Qin Xiaoxiao's understanding, and suddenly felt that the little girl had grown up. He asked, "Did Xiaoxiao tell you that he wants to get married?"

When mentioning this matter, Qin Qingrong couldn't help but smile, "Not yet, but I heard she said that she would stay at home for the rest of her life."

"Didn't Xiaoxiao think about it at all?" Gu Zhen couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard the words, then he changed the subject and teased Qin Qingrong again: "What about you? Have you ever thought about when you will marry this general?"

"Forget it, you and I have no father or mother, so there is no point in going to church."

As he spoke, he walked to the door and opened the wooden door of the inner hall. Qin Qingrong turned his back to Gu Zhen and admired the rain scene in the courtyard, listening to the sound of Linlin's rain. in a lifetime."

"That's because you haven't seen what romance is."

Gu Zhen recalled the past, and he said with emotion: "I still remember when I was a child, because my mother's birthday was at the end of summer, so every day my father would take my mother to enjoy the scenery in the forest that he carefully arranged and filled with fireflies.

You might have imagined that such a thick-headed person like him could have such a delicate mind. "

"A firefly?"

Qin Qingrong could already imagine that beautiful scene from Gu Zhen's words, he turned around to look at Gu Zhen and said with certainty: "It will indeed be beautiful."

"Do you like fireflies?"

Sensing the fascination in Qin Qingrong's eyes, Gu Zhen smiled and promised, "I remember that your birthday seems to be at the end of summer. Since you like it too, the general will arrange it for you then."

In fact, Qin Qingrong hasn't celebrated his birthday since his mother died of illness, now that Gu Zhen suddenly mentioned him, he couldn't help but look forward to it.

But still hid this expectation in his heart, Qin Qingrong didn't show it too obviously, he just joked: "It's easy to say, I'm afraid I won't even see your figure by then."

"Don't worry, General Ben will do what he says."

Gu Zhen followed Qin Qingrong's words, raised his eyebrows and smiled frivolously, "Even if the general has lost his mind at that time, he will definitely let you see such a beautiful scenery."

For some reason, Qin Qingrong felt flustered when Gu Zhen said the words Hunfeiposan. He was afraid that this would actually happen.

In fact, whether there is any beautiful scenery on his birthday is second to none. His greatest expectation is to have Gu Zhen's company.

Xu Shi had a lot of changes in the situation in the court and in his life in the past few days. At night, he had a long dream when he was held in Gu Zhen's arms.

This dream started from Guozijian. At that time, he was inseparable from Song Xun and Ye Ruan all day long.

The first emperor had very strict requirements on Song Xun, and filled Song Xun's daytime schedule every day.Sometimes when Song Xun encountered a subject that he was not very good at, he would take him to accompany him and let him guide him a little bit.

He always remembered that Song Xun would inadvertently show admiration for him and praise him without hesitation: "Qing Rong, you are good-looking and smart.

If my highness becomes the emperor in the future, I will definitely make you the prime minister of the political affairs hall. "

But Ye Ru'an always proudly pulled him by his side and showed off to a group of classmates: "Look, Qin Qingrong is my best friend, and I am also his best friend. Not only that, my father and his Dad is also a close friend!"

Every time Ye Ruan made such a statement, a group of people watched and admired him, and Qin Qingrong and Ye Ruan stood in the middle of the crowd and smiled shyly.

When Gu Zhen entered the Imperial Academy to study, Ye Ru'an and Song Xun often reminded him not to get close to Gu Zhen.

Song Xun told him that Gu Zhen was a small cancer in the imperial court, and in the future he would be like his father Gu Qinan's big cancer, ruining Da Song's reputation abroad.

Ye Ru'an also told him that Gu Zhen is a coquettish, unlearned and incompetent person, and if he stays with such a person who doesn't think about making progress, he will only get worse and worse.

Qin Qingrong frowned slightly in the dream, he defended Gu Zhen: "Your Highness, Ru'an, Gu Zhen is not as miserable as you imagined, he is just hiding his clumsiness."

"Zangzhuo? Then you mean that he is deceiving the king!"

The scene in front of him suddenly darkened, Qin Qingrong was slightly dazed, and saw that the appearance of the two people in front of him gradually faded from their youthful childishness and became more mature, and the aura around them was also quite different from before.

In front of him, Song Xun was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe. He waved his sleeves and said angrily, "Come here! I'm going to put Gu Zhen in the prison!"

And Ye Ruan beside him looked at him with puzzled resentment in his eyes and sneered, "Qing Rong, are you really worthy of Uncle Qin by hanging out with that prodigal son Gu Zhen?

Since you have already chosen Gu Zhen, then I will sever my friendship with you! "

Song Xun's rage and Ye Ru'an's resentment were engraved in his heart, Qin Qingrong frowned, he didn't understand why people would lose more as they grow up.

At this point, his life is no longer what it used to be.
