"Boom boom boom-"
Yan Shuo was interrupted by the knock on the door, his hand trembled slightly, and the cigarette butt left a bright red dot in the silent night. Intermittent soot fell down, blown away with the wind, and separated before landing, like the past.
"cousin?"
Seeing that there was no response, the people outside the room tried to open the mouth again.
Yan Shuo was a little surprised. He originally thought it must be Gu Qiu's unwillingness to give up, but he didn't expect it to be Gu Changyin.
Gu Qiu was so devoted to being someone else's lover back then, and it was considered a break with her family. Fortunately, her eldest brother still loves her and has always been in touch. Later, Gu Qiu became an upright Mrs. Yan, and naturally she took good care of her brother.
Gu Changyin is the only precious son of Gu Qiu's eldest brother. He usually walks a lot. He is very smart, but he doesn't care about the powerful. He is a painter who is not very professional.
Yan Shuo thought for a while and reached out to open the door. Gu Changyin and Gu Qiu were very different, and would not go to the Three Treasures Hall without incident.
Gu Changyin wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses all the year round. He is very fair and gentle. He looks a bit like Gu Qiu, so he and Yan Shuo have two similarities, but they are very different. Compared with Yan Shuo's eyebrows and Frost Sword, the corners of his eyebrows and eyes are soaked with poetic freehand brushwork, like the tenderness of love in the hazy morning glow.
Most people are artists, so they look very artistic.
Yan Shuo had a good impression of Gu Changyin, which was quite rare.
At first, Gu Changyin had the same attitude towards him from childhood to adulthood. Second, he is smart. Although Gu Changyin is only an unprofessional painter, he has different views and opinions on many things.
A well-read and shrewd young talent with a lot of connections, but he likes to be a painter. He is not professional, which is very interesting.
"What's wrong?"
Yan Shuo saw that his expression was a little sad today, he was a tactful and good-looking person, and when his eyebrows narrowed, he felt that he was greatly wronged.
"It's nothing, I see you haven't come out," Gu Changyin lowered his head slightly, hesitating to speak, "I want to talk to you."
Yan Shuo nodded.
"Why don't you turn on the lights?"
Just as Yan Shuo was about to turn on the light, Gu Changyin's finger rubbed his finger and pressed the switch.
He frowned slightly and withdrew his hand.
"did you drink?"
Gu Changyin shook his head, nodded again, and shook the goblet with the pale golden liquid, a little to Yan Shuo.
"It's okay, um... You know, this kind of alcohol is not too drunk."
Yan Shuo saw that something was wrong with him, but he couldn't say it, so he just took two steps back calmly.
"Tell me, you must have something else to do with me."
Gu Changyin pursed the corner of his mouth and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Why do I have to be looking for you for something else, it's been a long time since I missed you."
"Don't be disgusting with me, just tell me."
Yan Shuo frowned slightly, his eyes scrutinized.
"Okay," Gu Changyin shook his head, pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his face with his finger, and the poetry-soaked Sven eyes suddenly sharpened, "I heard something incredible, so I'm here to ask you for proof. "
Yan Shuo already understood two points in his heart, and asked nonchalantly, "What about Ferdinand?"
He released two points about Ferdinand's intention to rebel, but the words were ambiguous. Before Ferdinand came back, he planned to observe the positions of the various factions within the empire.
The Central Council is the center of power. Although the five old men in it can only blow their beards and stare, they have a wide network of people in their hands. He knows that two of them are from Ferdinand's birth mother, and they will definitely go to Ferdinand, and two of them must be standing by them. On the other hand, the other one said it badly.
In addition, the direction of the major families holding military power is also ambiguous, and we can find out more clearly after releasing this information.
In fact, for Ferdinand, rebellion is not the most important thing. The old emperor has a few good days to live. He was originally the heir to the throne, but the imperial power is now too restricted. Even if he ascends the throne, he is not free.
More importantly, Olivia testified that he was betraying the country with the enemy, or the federation with the old enemy Ayers.
What the hell is Ferdinand doing and what does he want
He didn't even know it.
"Yes," Gu Changyin admitted simply and neatly, he looked directly at Yan Shuo and lowered his voice, "His Royal Highness Ferdinandia has ulterior motives and is absurd, I do have a question about him and want to ask you. "
"What's the problem?" Yan Shuo was not annoyed, but his eyes lit up.
Gu Changyin is very clever, obviously a painter, but his political vision is far-reaching and unusual, and his connections are unexpectedly messy and wide-ranging.
Gu Changyin lowered his voice by three points. There was a family banquet outside, but he was still cautious and cautious.
"Cousin should know the biggest problem." Gu Changyin's face didn't look very good, "Shen Zhifan."
Yan Shuo was silent, as if he had been hit by a dead end.
"Shen Zhifan and Ferdinand have been in close contact with each other, this is not a secret," Gu Changyin took off the gold-rimmed glasses, took out the silk scarf in his breast pocket and wiped it carefully, "Cousin, you sent Shen Zhifan into the The mecha department, isn't it really a matter of raising tigers?"
"No," Yan Shuo responded bluntly, "I naturally have my own ideas."
Gu Changyin looked at him quietly for a long time, the eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses were surprisingly dark, which made Yan Shuo a little worried.
"Seven years ago," Gu Changyin suddenly sighed, "Seven years ago you asked me to help you find a boy, I remember, it was Shen Zhifan."
Yan Shuo: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Gu Changyin's face was not very good-looking: "Do you really have no personal feelings for him?"
Yan Shuo turned his head slightly, and then said bluntly, "Of course I have personal feelings for him."
He admitted so straightforwardly, but Gu Changyin didn't know what to say.
"What is his relationship with you?" Gu Changyin frowned, "You want to protect him like this?"
"He saved my life." Yan Shuo also frowned, feeling that today's Gu Changyin is extraordinarily busy.
Gu Changyin followed: "Just because he saved your life? Even if he had an affair with Ferdinand, you put him in the mecha department?"
"I said it," Yan Shuo's voice became two points heavier, "I have my thoughts on putting him in the mecha department."
Gu Changyin pressed step by step: "What are your thoughts?"
Yan Shuo turned around and patted Gu Changyin on the head, neither light nor heavy.
"Children, don't worry about adults."
Gu Changyin: "..."
Gu Changyin choked back a mouthful of blood, but was crushed by this reason, and was very dissatisfied.
He is only two years younger than Yan Shuo.
"No, think about it," Gu Changyin wanted to fry no matter how clean and gentle he was, "Do you think it's really time to put him in the mecha department? I've seen his videos, and his level is very high. He's very talented, and with the Mecha Division standing, he'll be a very scary assistant for Ferdinand..."
"You also said that he is very talented," Yan Shuo sighed and glanced at him with some disgust, "He shouldn't be buried."
Gu Changyin wanted to hit someone after hearing this: "Just because of talent?"
"No," Yan Shuo put out the cigarette butt in his ashtray, "put it next to me, I can look at him better."
"How can you make sure that you are optimistic about him?" Gu Changyin laughed angrily. "If you are not optimistic, and it causes losses and even human life, who will be responsible, and are you responsible?"
"Well, I'll come."
Yan Shuo nodded very seriously.
Gu Changyin was speechless. The artist didn't like his serious and rogue attitude. After holding it for a long time, he said, "You just have an affair with him."
Yan Shuo gave him a strange look: "Didn't I admit that I had an affair with him long ago?"
Gu Changyin: "..."
"Cousin, for so many years," Gu Changyin was silent for a while, and finally calmed down a little, "You are not such an impulsive person, you have done this wrong."
"Well," Yan Shuo frowned, "there are many reasons, although I believe I can be optimistic about him, but I have to admit that I like him very much."
Gu Changyin froze for a long time with his mouth open: "...you, you..."
He was "you" for a long time and couldn't say a word.
"I thought about what you said," Yan Shuo wanted to get out a cigarette again, but his self-control still allowed him to avoid the plan of up to three cigarettes a day, "I'll tell you directly, I have many ways to deal with these situations."
"Really," Gu Changyin's white face was full of doubts, "it doesn't matter if he turns back at any time?"
Yan Shuo paused: "Whether he will go against the water is still a question, although I don't know what happened back then, but I'm also letting go of the investigation, and now there are some eyebrows, his personal relationship with Ferdinand may be just being Because Ferdinand was deceived..."
"Then what if he kills someone," Gu Changyin said like a blade, "if he kills someone in the mecha department and turns against the water, will you treat them equally?"
"No, it's not a question of equal treatment," Gu Changyin continued before he could answer, "This is your responsibility."
…
late at night.
In the silent room, the young man slept peacefully on his side.
Probably because of a good mood, at first glance, he felt that the other party had a sweet dream, and even the corners of his mouth were smiling.
A white shadow crept into the house, and the soft pads made it silent.
Today's cat is also very beautiful. Its fur is like a brocade streamer in the moonlight, and its face is small and graceful, like a doll.
It was half seated by the young man's bed, watching him silently.
But that gaze was too substantial, causing the sleeping young man to frown slightly.
It wagged its tail, the tail is fluffy, very fluffy and cute, and it is a touch that makes people want to touch it at first sight.
The youth's face is close to it, it bows its head slightly, and its eyes are like beautiful glass stones.
Then it rubbed the youth's head with its face, like a light kiss.
