At the beginning, judging only by the appearance and portrait described in his mouth, he vaguely felt that this little shopkeeper on the bank of the Qinhuai River was Lord Xiangyang Hou Gu.But they didn't dare to be completely convinced.Because the other party is extremely low-key, he never has too much contact and conversation with people.The conversation is elegant and elegant, but ordinary speech can't see how talented this person is.Moreover, it is said that there is a brightly colored red scar on the eyebrow bone of Lord Gu.It was very bewitching and eye-catching, but there was nothing on the face of this Mei shopkeeper, so he didn't dare to conclude that he was the person he was looking for.But after carefully observing for nearly half a month, he found that there was still a difference between the eyebrows on both sides of the shopkeeper.One side looks more prominent, and you can't see it until you look at it from a tricky angle.It was precisely because of this discovery that he was more and more able to confirm the identity of the other party.After that, there was a lot of stalking, and the reason was that he just wanted to learn a thing or two from this legendary Wenqu star.For some reason, Master Gu doesn't like to show his talent to the outside world.But perhaps because their identities had been recognized, they had a hearty contest that night.Fight wine and write poems, talk about the past and the present.Jiang Yan seems to have never had such a hearty time for so many years.Although in the end, he still lost two games in a row, neither connecting with Lord Gu's quatrains, nor being able to quote scriptures to refute some of Lord Gu's remarks.But he still felt happy!
It's a pity that they had already said before the battle that day, and they would only compete this time.And there was a bet.If Xiang Yanghou wins, he is not allowed to pester Xiang Yanghou anymore.He is not allowed to call out his identity on any occasion, and the two should not know each other.And then he lost.Although the third prince is a literati, he does not have the contempt of literati, he is really deviant.Even the cheeks are thicker than those of ordinary literati.Losing is losing, but it is also dead or alive.Gu Jing was willing to discuss with him again, and he didn't care, he just looked for various reasons to find Shopkeeper Mei to talk to him alone.All plans to continue his journey were disrupted, and he had been stationed here for more than a month.At this time, when Gu Jingyuan asked him how he faked his identity to take the literary exam, the three princes of Changguo smiled and did not answer.Xiang Yanghou's temper is probably very direct, he never knows how to be polite to people, and he has always been straightforward.Jiang Yan didn't think there was anything offensive about him saying that he had forged his identity, and at this time, in the face of the delicate and handsome face of Shopkeeper Mei, he didn't answer and asked: So did Master Hou see me playing?
What do you think of me?
Are you qualified to compete again?
Gu Jingyuan said: There is no first martial arts and no second, why should the third prince be too obsessed with success or failure?
This hall is not that meaning, in front of the people he worships, Jiang Yan is not exempt from vulgarity.He was anxious to explain: I just want to know if I have improved compared to two months ago, and I ask my husband to give me advice.With that, he bowed again.Shopkeeper Mei said: There is no end to learning, His Royal Highness has made progress, but there is no end.Jiang Yan: Grinning dissatisfied, it seems that every time he asks like this, Mr.'
s answer is always these gentlemen, he straightened his waist again and took a step closer in the direction of Gu Jingyuan.The space in the pavilion was already small, and it could only accommodate two people sitting opposite each other, but now that he got closer, the distance between the two people was so close that it was almost pasted.Jiang Yan looked at this young man who was about the same age as himself, but seemed to have experienced a lot, and suddenly became extremely curious about him in a direction other than learning.Why didn't Mr.
Da Yi work in the court, but came here to be a little shopkeeper?
The Mei shopkeeper has a good personality.But if it comes to any of his private matters, he will definitely not answer.He was just as silent this time.Jiang Yan had no choice but to continue to have nothing to say: I heard that the Dayi army was looking down on Emperor Yuwen's imperial expedition, and it will soon go straight to the capital of Beirong Your emperor of Dayi is indeed brave, and what he saw along the way, the people also competed to praise him.But Gu Houye, who supported the emperor all the way, lived in seclusion here, and his talent has been annihilated since then, why is this?
It won't be Jiang Gongzi, and the more he guesses, the deeper Jiang Yan's face becomes: It won't be your Dayi's emperor, he will fail you Jiang Gongzi.Shopkeeper Mei interrupted what he was about to say in a cold voice.Don't forget our bet, you won't be able to call me out if you lose.He looked at him, his black and white eyes were full of seriousness, and he was not afraid of the majesty of the prince and said: And you lost.After saying that, he turned around, and the white skin set off by the dark robe also looked white at night.I only saw Jiang Yan's heart skip a beat.The third prince couldn't help but laugh again, and showed his cheeky kung fu again: Fortunately, our bet is not that I will leave if I lose.Mr.
Mei, there are still long days to go.The Three Princes.After turning around, Mr.
Mei called him again.This time, he didn't turn back, but said in a cold voice: According to the regulations of Mingyue Tower, only students who participated in the tribute examination this year can sign up for the nightly competition.You fabricated your identity, so the ranking was cancelled, and all the applicants who registered tonight will be re-tested tomorrow.Although the cultural examination is only held privately by the restaurant, the emphasis is on participation, and the winners are rewarded with little reward.But you broke the rules, you are no longer welcome in Mingyue Tower, please move out of here tomorrow.Jiang Yan: He didn't mean to fake his identity, but he was just a member of the imperial examination of the Dayi Dynasty, of course he couldn't take the exam as a Changguo person, so he could only deliberately make a fake identity and fool the guys in the building, so he was registered.Jiang Yan was extremely angry: Mr.
Mei, you are discriminating!
This regulation itself discriminates against me!
Mr.
Mei did not listen, and walked out.At this moment, two old mothers walked out of the side room with three or four maid-like people, one of whom also held an infant baby in her arms.Childe, the little master refuses to sleep again, crying for you to hug.The shopkeeper Mei really walked over, took the baby in his arms, and coaxed him carefully.Jiang Yan didn't like babies, but he was extremely curious about Gu's children, so he couldn't help but lean forward to take a look.That's right, the shopkeeper Mei has a son.It is said that he is only two or three months old and still in infancy.No one knew who the child's birth mother was.I only know that the shopkeeper Mei attaches great importance to this child, and the nurse and maid who take care of the child have invited more than ten people, and they often accompany and take care of them personally.When he's not in the front yard store, he's mostly with the kids.When Jiang Yan came, he knew that there was a child in the courtyard of Xiangyang Hou Gu.He didn't find it strange either.Although I faintly heard that the relationship between Xiangyang Hou and the emperor of the Dayi Dynasty was not ordinary, but later I didn't hear that Emperor Yuwen told the world, saying that they were just acting for hoeing rape?
Even if it's really different, it's nothing.They are more civilized, even if they are the emperor's male favorites, they can have their own family outside, which is not unusual.It was because Jiang Yan didn't have the slightest doubt about the identity of this child, and he was Xiang Yanghou by default.Seeing that Master Gu was extremely skillful in holding the child in his arms, coaxing him carefully, and his lowered eyebrows and eyes were full of tenderness, the picture was simply too beautiful and harmonious, and the hearts of the beautiful people were stirred.He couldn't help but step forward as well, and looked carefully at the child who was hugged by Mei Gongzi and smiled brightly, and couldn't help but sigh, don't say, this child really looks like you!
deliberately restrained his breath, and the eyes of the tall man who was hiding in the corner and eavesdropping were as red as blood.Hearing the child's cry, his expression tensed, and he suddenly clenched his fists.Chapter 47 My heart is towards Your Majesty, and I will go to Jiangnan in front.A group of dozens of horsemen, starry night and night rushed from the north to the Central Plains, along the way trekking through mountains and rivers day and night, without stopping.But when he heard his subordinates reply, the leader immediately retracted his arm and reined in the horse's reins.Looking at the brilliant lights below the hillside, dotted with the scenery of the Changliu River, the leader suddenly fell into a burst of tension for no reason.A Xiangyanghou is here?
His voice was extremely hoarse and rough.Like the wind and sand polishing the rocks, at first glance it sounds like there are some vicissitudes.The leader was dressed in black, and because of the dust along the way, the black clothes were already covered with dust, and he was quite embarrassed.It's just that his posture on the horse is tall and tall like a majestic mountain, which makes his embarrassment also have a bit of hardness and tenacity.In addition, the lines of his face are as clear as a knife and axe, and the eyebrows that fly obliquely into the temples are also full of heroism.Because of the long-term fighting on the battlefield, handsome with a little bit of anger, with a hint of ferocity in the madness, a cold air all over the body, looking both good and evil.Be.The subordinates in the back reported truthfully: Although Hou Ye erased the scar on the eyebrow bone and changed his appearance slightly, the features are still obvious and easy to identify.Well.When the leader heard this, the eight winds did not move, and only responded lightly.He closed his eyes slightly.The slender and slender figure was automatically reflected in his mind.Gu Jingyuan has been a year.It's been more than a year.How are you doing?
Reopening his eyes, the leader raised the whip in his hand and took the lead in riding forward.The group drove straight in, and they could no longer ride horses in the downtown area, so several people settled their horses at the post station, and Long Yanzhao took a few shadow guards to directly inquire to the spies to find out where the person was.The Qinhuai River sings and dances every night, but it seems to have nothing to do with Long Yanzhao.Even if he is the emperor, he is not interested in watching the scene of the four seas rising at this time.Even he didn't have any expression along the way.The emperor has been like this for more than a year, and there is almost no change in his expression, which is why it is difficult to figure out and even more terrifying.I don't know what kind of large-scale event there is tonight, the riverbank is full of people going out to shop, coming and going.In the bustling crowd, Long Yanzhao's height is still the tallest, standing out from the crowd.He was like a steel knife that directly cut through the crowd along the way, and marched firmly towards the destination fixed in his heart.The emperor's feet are very fast.He didn't allow himself to be blocked by the crowd at all, and a few shadow guards couldn't open his way.Your Majesty's son.Kageji couldn't help but walk side by side with him and stopped him.Long Yanzhao turned his head slightly.A pair of eyes are straightforward and sharp, and when looking at someone, it always makes the other person feel that there is nowhere to hide.Ying Er was a little nervous, but he still reminded him: Do we want to change our clothes, and he looked up and down at the simple black clothes on His Majesty's body.It's nothing to be shabby, the point is to be dusty.I've been wearing it all the time, and I'm covered in gray.If this is seen by Master Gu, it is indeed inappropriate.Long Yanzhao said after pondering.I haven't seen him for so long, and he deserves to make a good impression on Ah Yuan.It would be better if it was a new impression Long Yanzhao glanced at Ying Er with praise and felt that he was worthy of being the leader of his shadow guard, he was well-informed, and he also knew that Xiangyang Hou loved to be clean.When I go back, remember to ask for a reward.The emperor said.After saying that, he raised his eyes and looked around, and then led his subordinates into a ready-to-wear shop.Shadow 2: Huh.In fact, for Kageji, changing clothes is secondary.The key is that there are so many people, the emperor rushes forward with all his heart, what if he encounters an assassin!
There have been fewer assassinations of the emperor in the past year, although the area south of the Yangtze River is far away from the war and relatively safe, but it is better to be careful.When they came out of the ready-to-wear shop, several people turned into a boy wearing a cloth robe and holding a folding fan.happened to catch up with the township test, and most of the people around me were dressed like this, if you want not to attract attention, of course, you still have to wear the same clothes as them.It's just that the team of people who followed the emperor, including the emperor himself, all fought on the battlefield, born and died, washed the yellow sand of the grassland in blood, and all of them were fierce and vicious, and they didn't look like a literati.In addition, long-term exercise also makes them look taller and stronger, and even if they change their clothes, they are still extremely prominent in the crowd.Before entering the Mingyue Tower, Long Yanzhao also sensibly reminded his subordinates: pay attention to restraint and don't alarm anyone.However, although he looked calm on the surface, his heart was pounding with nervousness.He was standing in front of the restaurant opened by Ah Yuan at this moment.After passing through this door, he could see the bustle in the restaurant.Or rather, they were too late, and they couldn't squeeze through the door at all.Guests respond in drove.Long Yanzhao suddenly remembered the experience and remarks that Gu Jingyuan had told him about running a restaurant before, and looked at the grand scene in front of him now, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.But it's expected.The boss here is Gu Jingyuan.Where can I do what I want to do?
Long Yanzhao shook his head, came back to his senses, and began to squeeze in a little irritably.It's a pity that I don't know what activities are being held on the ring in the middle, let alone entering the door, even the river opposite the back door is full of painting boats, and there is not even a place to settle down on it, and the activities inside have ended.As soon as Long Yanzhao entered the door, he heard someone shouting loudly that Shopkeeper Mei had an advantage in height, and his vision was wider than ordinary people, so when he inadvertently looked up, he saw the person standing next to the railing who had not been seen for more than a year, and when he saw this figure again, Long Yanzhao was almost stunned on the spot.The other party changed into a dark-colored outfit.Black hair is not always tied in a bun as in the court.Instead, half of the hair was left scattered and scattered, neatly draped over the shoulders, with a long and jade body, and it stood out and was eye-catching.He looked around the downstairs with a faint gaze, his expression was calm and serene, but it seemed to be standing in the clouds, with its own divine light, high above.No matter how you jump and touch, you can't bear to touch the corners of its clothes.Gu Jingyuan just stood there indifferently.The appearance has not changed.It was too far away, and his appearance was a little unclear, but everything seemed to be the same as he had seen a year ago, and Long Yanzhao's heart fluttered more violently.He had to hold his heart tightly and try to stop the heart inside from jumping to prevent it from popping out of his chest.But despite this, he dodged uncontrollably to the side when the other party's gaze came, and dodged directly behind the thick red pillars in the room.
