"I have my own judgment." Wen Qing stuffed the bamboo tube into his sleeve.

He seemed to not want to get entangled with this person any longer, so he turned and left the dark corridor. The man in black sneered.

Wen Qing stopped walking under the eaves of the main hall, which was filled with warm light. The eunuchs who were supposed to be on duty under the pillars were nowhere to be seen. The long tassels of the palace lanterns were swaying in the night wind, and the sound of clinking glasses could be heard from inside the gate.

Wen Qing stood quietly, waiting for the man to show up.

Qin Zhaoning walked out from behind the column.

"Where have you been?" The third prince's face was half hidden in the shadows, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

"Your Highness, I have to go to the bathroom." Wen Qing said calmly.

"I don't want to waste time talking to you. Who is that person?" Qin Zhaoning lowered his voice and slowly walked into the shadow where Wen Qing was. The two of them bathed in darkness together, with only the moonlight shining through.

"..."Wen Qing didn't say anything.

"What did he give you? I saw it all." Qin Zhaoning asked in a low voice. He grabbed Wen Qing's wrist and felt something hard and cold in the wide sleeves. "Hand it over!"

"Your Highness." Wen Qing lowered his eyes and looked at him.

Qin Zhaoning found that he could not shake his wrist at all.

"How many things have you hidden from me?" Qin Zhaoning glared at him, and he asked softly, "Who is that Sarhan? Did you kill him? Why? Do you know what is in that pepper garden? How could you!"

"Liu Fei has already found out about this?" Wen Qing seemed to smile.

"You want to kill him? Is it because anyone who has escaped your control is going to be killed? Will I be the next one?" Qin Zhaoning grabbed Wen Qing's collar, his eyes red with anger: "What on earth are you doing!"

Wen Qing held his wrist and slowly moved that hand to his chest.

Qin Zhaoning's eyes widened, and he fell down the next second. Wen Qing caught the Third Prince's limp body and held him in his arms.

"Are you stupid? Yelling in a place like this." Wen Qing lowered his head and said, "What's the matter? Can't you go back and talk about it?"

Two eunuchs appeared from nowhere, and Wen Qing handed Qin Zhaoning in his arms to them: "Send him back."

"Yes." The eunuch carried the man and left quickly.

Wen Qing raised his head and glanced at the moonlight.

……

Yu Weishuang followed Qin Zhaohong back to the princess's mansion in Luoyang.

"You have met the person you wanted to see tonight. What are your plans?" Qin Zhaohong took off her complicated hairpin and her tightly combed bun with the help of her maid. Her hair, which had been fixed for too long and was a little curly, fell down.

Yu Weishuang rolled up his sleeves, inserted his ten fingers into the princess's hair, and slowly massaged her hair.

The two of them sat on the small couch.

"I think we should get back my mother's dowry first. My brother is about to get married, and if the time comes to pay the betrothal gifts, I'm afraid I won't be able to get back a single cent of those properties." Yu Weishuang said in a low voice.

"That's good." Qin Zhaohong closed his eyes: "What do you want to do?"

The girl hesitated a little: "Let's go back home first, find out the current situation, and then take it step by step."

"You are no longer the helpless person, so you can be more ruthless." Qin Zhaohong said.

"Princess, are you willing to help me?" Yu Weishuang leaned on her shoulder and smiled, "If there is a shortcut, I will naturally not refuse."

"You want to go back to the mansion, but you can't go back by yourself. You have to ask them to invite you and be afraid of you. Otherwise, you will be tortured once you go in." Qin Zhaohong said with a smile, "Who said we are allies? Just wait."

"Then Yu Weishuang would like to thank the princess in advance," she said.

"Can you contact Gu Xu?"

Yu Weishuang said: "No."

She hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does he want to find out the cause of his mother's death? Is there anything I can help with?"

Qin Zhaohong began to think.

"It's okay to tell you. Gu Xu is the grandson of the Su family. What happened in Prince Shen's Mansion back then..."

Qin Zhaohong briefly recounted the case of Prince Shen's rebellion at that time.

"I see." Yu Weishuang said, "From the incident itself, it seems that there is nothing wrong. But Gu Xu is a man who would never make a fuss. I think the whole case is definitely not as simple as it seems."

"Indeed. The success of the event was unbelievable, and the family of Prince Shen was not a traitor."

"Princess, do you know them? I have heard a lot about Gu Shen in my boudoir." Yu Weishuang leaned against the pillow.

"I have some contact with Su Huaiyue, but not much. After all, I don't like to get involved in the affairs of the rear house." Qin Zhaohong picked up a small fan beside him and fanned himself.

"I will pay attention to this matter." Yu Weishuang said.

……

A small courtyard in the mountain.

Gu Yue carried a basket of freshly dug wild vegetables, washed them in a wooden basin, chopped them up, and mixed them with wild grain ears, which became simple chicken feed.

The big rooster, who had grown colorful feathers, came first and picked up broken leaves from the chicken feeder and threw them on the ground. The hens gathered in a circle and started pecking at the leaves.

The chicken feed formula was given to him by the chicken farm manager, and it is basically the same nowadays, combined with the free-range method, allowing the chickens to forage for food on their own. Therefore, the meat is firm and it is a real native chicken.

Another method is to raise insects in the fields, but the cost is slightly higher and it is troublesome, so Gu Yue passed it up.

There was no shortage of insects in the wild forest. Gu Yue used a wooden fence to expand the size of the yard and clipped the chickens' feathers so that he wouldn't be afraid that they would fly away and become pheasants.

After feeding the chickens, he fertilized the vegetable fields in the yard. He used the barrel composting method, putting kitchen waste and chicken manure into barrels and fermenting them into fertilizer.

Thanks to Li Ziqi! Thanks to Li Ziqi for the endless stream of ancient legal system xx short video bloggers! Gu Yue is cute to watch, although I don’t remember much.

Away from the disturbances of the outside world and the vortex of various political intrigues, Gu Yue felt that his soul had been sublimated.

Farming articles are still the best!

But forget about farming.

There are some fish fry in the pond. Since the fish fry were put into the water, there are fewer mosquitoes at night.

This small courtyard is like a portable space! But you can't take it away.

It turns out that there are benefits to clinging to the male protagonist.

There was the sound of horse hooves outside, and Gu Xu and Wu Feng stopped their horses in front of the courtyard gate. Gu Yue, who was squatting in front of the pond, turned around when he heard the sound and smiled when he saw Gu Xu.

"came back!"

"Ah."

Gu Xu nodded, walked up, took Gu Yue's wrist, and pulled him into the house.

Gu Yue was used to it, and this meant that he had something to tell him.

……

"You are going to Luoyang to see Yu Weishuang?!" Gu Yue asked loudly.

"Yes." Gu Xu said.

"Isn't she in Qingxu Temple?" Gu Yue thought about it. In the original text, the heroine only had an important role after Gu Xu came to Beijing and became the prince's close friend. She was having a hard time in the backyard at the time, and she got together with Gu Xu because of the prince's matchmaking.

She shouldn't have left Qingxu Temple so early, right?

"You helped her?" Gu Yue guessed.

"No... well, that counts." Gu Xu looked at Gu Yue's face.

He has now chosen to trust "Gu Dashi", should he tell him about Qin Zhaohong's affairs?
