"Is it someone from the Tang Sect?" Gu Jiao came up with this guess based on what happened today.
A cold light flashed in Nan Shi Niang's eyes: "That's right, it's someone from the Tang Sect! I forced a lot of information from that person's mouth, and only then did I know that the Tang Sect had always been brooding about my departure. Like Xuan, they all think that I secretly comprehended some incredible martial arts before I can learn the highest martial arts in my sect, and they have always wanted to capture me back."
Gu Jiao didn't ask Nan Shi Niang why she didn't say it earlier, she understood Nan Shi Niang's temperament and didn't want to cause them trouble.
She looked at Nan Shi Niang and said sternly: "Nan Shi Niang, leave the matter of Tang Sect to me."
Nan Shi Niang looked at her in astonishment: "What do you want to do?"
Gu Jiao said lightly, "Tap on the Tang Sect!"
Between the Jianghu sect and the imperial court, the well water never violated the river, and it was Qi Xuan and his like, who also left the Tang sect before joining the Han family.
Gu Jiao had no intention of making things difficult for Jianghu sects, but whoever let the Tangmen flood into the Dragon King Temple and bullied Nan Shiniang, then don't blame the iron horse of Heifengying for stepping on the top of Tangmen.
"Jiaojiao..." Nan Shi Niang didn't want to trouble Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao looked into her eyes: "Nan Shi Niang, the Gu family asked me for twenty taels back then, and bought out their connection with Gu Xiaoshun. Gu Xiaoshun's parents took the two silver ingots in person, and they were very happy. Zhongyong's son can sell it for twenty taels, which they think is a good deal."
Nan Shi Niang never expected that there was such an unbearable truth behind the breakup between Gu Xiaoshun and the Gu family.
"You and Master Lu treat Xiaoshun as your own son. I don't want Xiaoshun to lose his parents who love him so much."
Nan Shi Niang was silent.
Gu Jiao continued: "What's more, when Ayan was injured, did you come to Yan Kingdom recklessly?"
The kindness of Nan Shi Niang and Master Lu to their two younger brothers cannot be summed up in a few words.
Gu Jiao will not allow anyone to hurt Nan Shi Niang.
The two sat for a while, and Master Lu came over in a hurry.
Nan Shi Niang waved at him on the second floor. He looked up and saw his wife first, no doubt, but who is the girl opposite her
He came to the wing.
"Aren't you hurt?" Nan Shi Niang asked.
"I didn't, what about you?" Master Lu said.
"I'm fine too, let's see who is coming?" Nan Shi Niang smiled and glanced at Gu Jiao, "You must not recognize it."
Master Lu's eyes fell on Gu Jiao's flawless face, and after a while, he stammered, "Sh-it's Jiaojiao, right?"
"Master Lu." Gu Jiao greeted with a smile.
Master Lu staggered and hit the wall beside him.
Really cute
Is this a face change
No, the facial features are no different from before, but without the birthmark, the whole person is like reborn.
"Jiaojiao's face is healed." Nan Shi Niang didn't mention Shou Gongsha.
Master Lu only thought that Gu Jiao had a good medical skill and was cured by himself. He was very relieved.
He doesn't judge people by their appearance, neither does Gu Jiao, but as an elder, he still doesn't want those bad eyes to fall on Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao asked, "Master Lu, Master Nan, where do you live now? Is it the same courtyard?"
Nan Shi Niang said warmly: "We have moved to the inner city, in Liucui Lane."
Gu Jiao said happily: "In the same direction as the Duke's Mansion, if you don't mind, let's go to the Duke's Mansion for a light meal in the evening, I will be very happy to see you all in Qingkong."
They went to a nearby car dealership to rent a carriage and went to the Guogong Mansion with Gu Jiao.
The three of them went to An Guogong's yard first, but they didn't see Xiao Qingkong, but they encountered another familiar figure first.
He was dressed in white, tall and tall, with a handsome face and unparalleled dignity.
It's not the long-lost Mu Qingchen, who else is it
When Mu Qingchen heard that Duke An Guo had returned to Shengdu, he immediately put down his official duties and came to visit him immediately.
He just came out of An Guogong's yard, and he never expected to meet Gu Jiao at the door.
Even Nan Shi Niang heard that the little commander of the Black Wind Rider was actually a woman's business. As a member of the top ten aristocratic families, how could he not know it
Gu Jiao was wearing a long cyan dress with narrow sleeves and a waist, with a light body and a slender waist. The fabric was made of high-quality silk yarn and soft smoke. When the sun shines, it can reflect a thin layer of hazy light.
This kind of soft smoke is a special product of Jin State, and it was paid tribute to Her Majesty the Empress by Jin State.
Her Majesty the Empress did not keep any of them for herself, but sent them all to the Duke Anguo Mansion.
Why did he know this, because it was he who counted the tributes of Jin that he escorted.
His eyes finally fell on Gu Jiao's face.
Then, he froze fiercely.
Nan Shi Niang noticed that the atmosphere at the scene was not right, she looked at Gu Jiao: "Jiao Jiao, you and I, Master Lu first..."
"Miss Nan!"
Suddenly, there was a small sound of surprise from Xiao Qingkong in the yard.
Nan Shi Niang smiled and glanced at Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen, and said, "Let's go to Jing Kong first, and you can talk."
After all, she took Master Lu, who wanted to gossip, to see Jingkong.
Gu Jiao's reaction was calmer than Mu Qingchen, she tilted her head slightly, and greeted Mu Qingchen as usual: "Mu Qingchen."
I used my original voice.
Mu Qingchen was stunned again.
Gu Jiao put her hands behind her back and thought for a while: "Well... I haven't seen you for a long time, stay safe."
It's been a long time to meet again, is it such a greeting
It took Mu Qingchen a minute to adjust to her female identity, to her appearance, to her voice.
There were countless emotions that Gu Jiao could not read flashed in his eyes, like it was unbelievable, or something else, but it was complicated.
"Mu Qingchen, what's wrong with you?" Gu Jiao asked.
Mu Qingchen clenched his hands under his wide sleeves a little bit. He walked slowly towards Gu Jiao, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm here today, besides visiting Duke Ang, I'm also looking for you for something."
Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows: "Looking for me? What's the matter?"
Mu Qingchen looked around: "There are many people here, so let's talk in one step."
The stubborn stubble of the Guogong's mansion has long been eliminated, and all that remains can be trusted.
Gu Jiao gave him a strange look: "Okay, wait for me."
She entered the yard and arranged for Nan Shi Niang and Lu Shifu to meet with An Guogong, and then went to a secluded pavilion in the Guogong mansion with Mu Qingchen.
Gu Jiao stood in the gazebo and said to him, "You can talk now."
Mu Qingchen hesitated for a moment, then took out a puppet from his wide sleeve.
It was a terrifying puppet, with a bloody mouth, fangs, blind eyes, and bald hair.
The memory that Gu Jiao once put aside came to her mind—she had made such a doll in her previous life.
"Yinyin gave it to me." Mu Qingchen looked into Gu Jiao's eyes and said.
Gu Jiao was stunned for a moment, then took the doll clearly: "You already know."
"The national teacher told me." Mu Qingchen clenched his fists, and a layer of bitterness filled his heart, "So you didn't lie to me, you said you would come back... You really came back..."
Gu Jiao's memory of Jing Yinyin was not comprehensive. She didn't even remember what Mu Qingchen said. The only thing that was certain was that Jing Yinyin could say these words, indicating that she had mastered the secret of time-travel.
She knew she could come back here again.
"Yinyin's health has not been very good." Mu Qingchen said, "The purple grass poison and her have never been completely integrated. Back then, the monarch sent someone to assassinate Yinyin, but in fact, the real cause of Yinyin's death was the purple grass poison."
The national teacher actually said this to Mu Qingchen.
Gu Jiao said, "What else do you know about Jing Yinyin? For example, her other identity?"
"You?" Mu Qingchen looked at her with a complicated expression.
It doesn't seem to know anything about the Lord of Shadows.
Gu Jiao returned the little puppet to him.
"Aren't you going to take it back?" Mu Qingchen asked.
"It's for you." Gu Jiao said.
Mu Qingchen held the puppet that had been with him for more than ten years, and a surging and uneasy feeling rolled through his chest: "If... I mean if..."
Before she finished speaking, Gu Jiao took a step forward, raised her hand and hugged him gently.
Mu Qingchen froze all over, her eyes widened in disbelief.
Gu Jiao said, "This is given to you by Yinyin."
Mu Qingchen's body was stiff, but his arms trembled slightly, his eyes turned red involuntarily, he raised his head, and forced the tears back to the corners of his eyes.
He raised his arm, wanting to hug his voice.
But his hand stopped in mid-air, and stopped just an inch away from her.
After all, he was late.
Gu Jiao retracted her hand, raised her eyes to look at him, and said seriously, "Mu Qingchen, thank you."
Thank you for your protection of Yinyin, and thank you for taking care of An Guogong.
Mu Qingchen packed up her emotions in time, and said calmly, "I've finished speaking, you should go to see Anguo Gong, don't make him wait for a long time, it's time for me to go back."
Gu Jiao said, "I'll send it to you."
Mu Qingchen said: "No, you go first."
"OK then."
Gu Jiao said goodbye to him, turned and walked down the pavilion.
Looking at the shadow that was gradually disappearing in the twilight, Mu Qingchen finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned around, closed his eyes, and a hot teardrop fell down.
It's even earlier today~
