"Jiu Wei, what's wrong with you? You've been restless since you woke up this morning. Are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Qi Lexuan looked at the pale Ning Jiu Wei and asked worriedly.
Ning Jiuwei stood outside the door, looking up at the huge plaque with two big golden characters written on it. She felt as if it was a lifetime ago. She seemed to be unable to remember the first time she entered Mu Mansion in her previous life.
It seems that when she was twelve years old, in order to steal the military formation map for Qin Lin, she deliberately got close to Mu Chenfeng, Mu's eldest son, and even almost got married. Now she thinks about it and is frightened. If it really is If so, wouldn’t that be **
"Jiu Wei?" Qi Lexuan looked at Ning Jiu Wei and shouted tentatively again.
"Go and call the door." Ning Jiuwei withdrew her gaze and walked directly to the door of Mu Mansion.
The boy guarding the door looked at Ning Jiuwei and hurriedly greeted them, and asked: "What are the two young masters coming to Mu Mansion for?"
"I'm looking for Gu Qingchen. Please tell me that his friend from five years ago is here to see him." Ning Jiuwei was wearing a crescent-white brocade robe, her hair was tied high with a plain headband, and she was Dressed like a handsome young man.
"Okay, please wait a moment, young masters. The younger one will go and report to Young Master Gu." The young man nodded in response and hurriedly entered the mansion.
Qi Lexuan and Ning Jiuwei had not stood there for a while before the boy ran out dripping with sweat. He made an inviting gesture with his hand and said, "Two young masters, our young master invites you two to come in."
"Ha, this is the young master who has become the Mu Mansion. He is so arrogant that he doesn't even want to greet his benefactor, but wants us to see him in person." Qi Lexuan said very dissatisfied.
Ning Jiu smiled and said, "Don't complain, not everyone can come in Mu Mansion."
That's what he said, but Ning Jiuwei didn't mind at all. Chu Tianyi died in Dongcheng five years ago because of him, and now this man is so arrogant when he meets her.
When the boy walking in front heard what the two people said, he secretly murmured in his heart. Judging from this, it seemed that the two of them had a deep connection with Master Gu.
As Ning Jiuwei walked, she looked at the exquisite surroundings. There were all kinds of pavilions, waterside pavilions, rockery and pavilions. The nine-curved corridor was surrounded by bamboos and cypresses, and there were more than a dozen koi carp in the pool. It was very beautiful, although it was It's early spring, but the flowers and plants in the backyard are already starting to look green.
"You two gentlemen, Master Gu is waiting inside." The young man stood by the door and said.
"Gu Qingchen, long time no see." Qi Lexuan stepped forward and pushed the closed door open, saying with a hint of annoyance in her voice.
However, after walking in, Qi Lexuan closed her mouth in embarrassment because she found that there were many people in the room, including Gu Qingchen, two men and one woman.
Gu Qingchen raised his head when he heard the voice. The moment he saw Ning Jiuwei, he immediately laughed. He hurriedly walked over and took her hand and said in surprise: "Jiuwei, are you here to see me?"
However, Ning Jiuwei's eyes were not on Gu Qingchen at this moment, but on the young boy wearing a light blue brocade robe.
"Qingchen, this is your friend from five years ago? Why does he look so familiar to me? Have I seen you somewhere?" Mu Yunxiao walked around the table to Ning Jiuwei, looked at her and asked road.
Ning Jiuwei looked deeply at Mu Yunxiao, and then said, "Master, do you think everyone is kind?"
"Young Master, my little brother may have seen someone similar to you somewhere. Don't get me wrong." The only woman among the four, Mu Xiaoxiao, stood up with a smile and said.
Hearing Mu Xiaoxiao's words, Ning Jiuwei didn't say anything. She just looked at Gu Qingchen beside her and said, "I have something to ask you. Are you going to tell me here, or are you going to tell me somewhere else?"
"Brother Mu, I have to go out for something, you guys go ahead." Gu Qingchen looked at Mu Chenfeng, who was the only one sitting in the seat, and said.
Mu Chenfeng glanced at Ning Jiuwei, then nodded and said, "Go early and come back early, don't let your aunt worry."
Gu Qingchen nodded, then turned around and walked out the door. He looked at Ning Jiuwei beside him, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Jiuwei, I thought you wouldn't come to see me."
"I'm here to ask you about what happened five years ago. Do you know who killed Chu Tianyi?" Ning Jiuwei asked.
Hearing Ning Jiuwei's words, Gu Qingchen put away his smile and recalled: "That night was a thunderstorm night and the wind was very strong. I only heard Uncle Chu telling me to run quickly, and then I jumped out through the window. , so... I didn’t see anyone, and I don’t know who killed Uncle Chu.”
After Ning Jiuwei listened, she asked in a dry voice: "You mean you don't know who killed him?"
"I don't know, but I know those people are here to kill me. I went to Tianshan to study in the past few years and only came back half a year ago. However, I found that there are often mysterious people near Mu Mansion. I think they should be the same as those from back then. We all work together." Gu Qingchen said, his eyebrows twisted into the Chinese character "Chuan".
After listening to Gu Qingchen's words, Ning Jiu frowned slightly and asked, "You mean they are still chasing you now?"
"Yes, their martial arts are very strong. In fact, they can break into Mu Mansion, but they didn't. I don't think they want to kill me. How can I put it... Just like a cat teasing a mouse, I am now I'm a little confused about their purpose." Gu Qingchen said, but actually this was what he was puzzled about.
Ning Jiu nodded slightly, and then said: "I don't want to kill you? I don't want to kill you, why did you pursue me so closely? And haven't you checked the origins of these people in the past five years?"
"I checked, but my people are limited. Every time I send out people, there is no news, just like evaporating from the world, so... Jiuwei, listen to me, stop checking, the people behind this are very... Awesome, don't worry, I will definitely find them and avenge Uncle Chu." When Gu Qingchen said this, he was sincere and worried about her.
"No need, you avenge your revenge and I will avenge mine. This can be regarded as an explanation to my mother. Also, thank you for telling me these things. I will leave first." Ning Jiuwei finished speaking and walked out. .
Gu Qingchen looked at Ning Jiuwei's back and suddenly said: "Jiuwei, please stay in Mu Mansion. You should know that you will find out a lot when you are around me."
"What do you mean?" Ning Jiuwei looked at Gu Qingchen and asked with a frown.
"The target of these people is me. As long as I am here, they will be nearby." Gu Qingchen said.
After hearing this, Qi Lexuan couldn't help but smile and said, "Gu Qingchen, do you want Jiuwei to protect you?"
"If you can, it would be my honor." Gu Qingchen said without caring.
Before Ning Jiuwei had time to speak, she saw a graceful lady walking towards her not far away. Her hair was pulled up into a high bun. Although she was over thirty years old, she was well-maintained.
