King Zhenbei has a favorite

Gu Ting asked Wu Feng to continue to investigate carefully, to go in detail, the more detailed the better, and the money was quite generous.Wu Feng didn't make any jokes or gags this time, and he obviously knew that this matter was very important.

Everyone knows that Xu Yinglan has thoughts about Huo Yan, but she has always behaved very well. She is generous, gentle and kind in front of others. She often goes to the palace to honor the princess. With such arrogance, he also looks down on Gu Ting as a man, so no one will help him.

Since you don't like it, just pass by and roll your eyes and leave, why do you have to hate it?It's a bit of a violation.

When Wu Feng came back with more details, Gu Ting found out that he was right, his worries seemed to have come true.

Wu Feng inquired about the news of the prince's return, Xu Yinglan was very excited, she declared that she would go to the palace to pay her respects, but was stopped by her cousin Xue Qing, who meant that the palace could go, but she had to be cautious Well, there was no one around the prince before, and he didn't want to care about his cousin's thoughts, but now the prince has a "sharp favorite", and he doesn't want his cousin to get too deep.

The siblings quarreled twice, and Xu Yinglan hesitated.

He was still hesitating in the morning, moved after lunch, and was still high-spirited. No one was afraid, and when he saw Gu Ting, he would be angry... If you say that nothing happened in the middle, who would believe it?

Wu Feng inquired about a name, Aunt Wang.This Aunt Wang’s family has many sons, and she doesn’t have a lot of money. She works as a helper in several houses in the alley at the same time.

Gu Ting wanted to investigate Aunt Wang deeply at the time, but if the matter was too serious, if he moved, he might startle the snake, what if others ran away?

"Bring a pen and ink here."

Wu Feng brought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and set them up: "Master, do you want to write?"

Gu Ting rolled up his sleeves: "Beihuaxiang, have you been there?"

Wu Feng nodded: "I've been there!"

"Do you remember the way?"

"almost."

Gu Ting dipped his brush in ink: "You tell me, I'll draw."

The master and servant cooperated and drew a simple map, marking the houses where Aunt Wang often went to help. Two of them were on the outer street, two were remote, one was in the center of the middle alley, and the other was just next door to Xue Qing's house. .

Gu Ting raised his eyebrows and asked Wu Feng: "How is the house over there? Is the yard big?"

Wu Feng: "It's just an ordinary home with a courtyard. It's not big, but if you have money, you won't live there."

"Is the courtyard wall high or thick?"

"It looked normal. The younger one asked casually at the time. The neighbors said that there would be thieves occasionally at night, and there were some unscrupulous ones who specially asked young couples to listen to the corners outside the courtyard."

"that would be great."

"That's okay? Young master, didn't you hear what the villain just said?" Listen to that kind of thing!

Gu Ting glanced at Wu Feng.

It's good because you can listen. The walls are low and thin, and you can hear the people inside when you stand outside. If your hearing is better, wouldn't it be possible to hide everything about other people's homes?

Is it dark under the lights?The person who hid didn't want to be known, was afraid of being discovered, and simply muddied the water. The most dangerous place was the safest place. Everyone hated Xu Yinglan. The whole alley was so lively, who would bother to investigate?Even if it is checked, the more people there are, the easier it is for her to hide and escape.

Gu Ting put down the brush: "Go, let's have a look."

Wu Feng immediately stopped him: "Farewell, young master, Zhi Zhi that woman deserved it that day, now chasing her to step on her door, young master will lose her posture."

"Who said I'm going to step on her?" Gu Ting slightly curled his lips, looking at his parents with a smile.

With a sense of crisis in his heart, Wu Feng put his arms around his chest subconsciously: "Young master, young master?"

Gu Ting smiled: "It seems that you have understood."

Wu Feng shook his head frantically: "No villain doesn't understand! The villain still has something to do—"

Gu Ting grabbed Wu Feng by the back of his neck: "This time you will act."

Wu Feng's eyebrows drooped.

He knew it.

The two of them tried first, going around from far and near, Aunt Wang's servants knocked on the door unexpectedly for various reasons, and asked all kinds of questions quietly, the result was as expected, everything was fine, only the last One family, Xue Qing's house, is next door to Xu Yinglan's residence.

Wu Feng asked in a low voice: "Master, do you want to knock on the door?"

Gu Ting shook his head.

If everything is as he guessed, even if you knock on this door, there will be no answer from the inside.

Wu Feng: "Then what should we do? It's almost here..."

Gu Ting caressed the stove in his palm, and smiled: "Didn't you tell me to spread the news that I'm coming?"

"But so what, this is not the street outside Wangfu, how can there be so many people who like to watch the excitement..."

"But there are people here who miss the prince."

Gu Ting looked at Silly Chang Sui with pity: "Just wait."

Sure enough, Xu Yinglan came out before they reached other people's door. Seeing Gu Ting's eyes flicker, she pointed at his nose and scolded: "Okay, I haven't complained yet, but you came here! The bully on the street I don't count, you still chase after me and bully me after I go home, are you a man, don't be ashamed!"

Her voice was shrill and piercing, mixed with crying, and her purpose should not be too obvious, she just yelled 'Everyone come and watch the fun'.

They are all small and small households, the neighbors opened the door very quickly, they lived together well, and their feelings for Xu Yinglan were biased, and many people didn't really see what happened on the street that day, so they naturally looked unhappy when they saw Gu Ting.

"Young man, listen to your aunt's advice and go back."

"The world is not easy, and it's not easy for women to live a life. You have already benefited, and it's not good to chase after you and be aggressive."

"To be a human being, it's better not to kill them all. It's better not to find fault."

……

Gu Ting looked at the worried ladies, and smiled slightly: "Who said I was here to find fault? It was this girl surnamed Xu who got anxious when she heard my name, came out and pointed at my nose and scolded me. I didn't say a single word until the end, don't be fooled by others."

Anger flashed across Xu Yinglan's eyes, and she said in her heart that she was shameless: "If you come here, if you don't look for me, who will you look for?"

Gu Ting's brows were faint: "Why did I seek you? What can I talk to you about?"

"of course--"

Threatening or wooing, forming an alliance or attacking each other, everyone is going to enter the palace, and each other can be enemies or friends, because there are more powerful opponents outside...

But such words cannot be said.

Xu Yinglan's face flushed red.

"Winter days and nights are long and hard, and it's not good to think too much. Miss, maybe it's time to ask a doctor to take a look." Gu Ting turned slightly and pointed at Wu Feng, "I just heard that Xue Qing is good at martial arts. Try it out with him."

Xu Yinglan's face turned pale and turned red. That day she lost her lip service, and today it's even worse—how could someone surnamed Gu look down on her and humiliate her so much!

"No matter how poor my family is, my cousin Xue Qing is also a good man. He belongs to the army. His skills were taught by the master of the palace. You just point out a servant and want to try?"

Gu Ting held the hand stove, relaxed his shoulders and stretched his waist, and smiled with a pleasant and proud look: "Yes."

Others don't know that he is playing tricks, they only see how beautiful this style is, and they have no confidence.Why?Where does the confidence come from?Of course it was allowed by the lord... So this young master Gu can decide the selection of talents now?No, the palace has strict rules, so it may not be that he can make the decision, it's just that the prince gives face, and the prince is willing to pamper him, who can say otherwise?Who dares to say?

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xu Yinglan was a little ridiculous.

Isn't this self-inflicted humiliation!

It was the past two days, and it’s still the same today. If you calm down a bit, don’t play around so much, and keep a low profile and humility, how can you lose face like this?

Xu Yinglan felt her face burning hot: "I...I..."

Just as he was about to say something, Xue Qing had already stepped out: "Sister, go back!"

Xu Yinglan didn't want to, so she slapped her cousin's hand away vigorously, stared at him, her eyes were red: "Are you murdering me? Are you going to murder me? Who am I doing this for?"

Xue Qing looked calm: "You know who you are for. As I said earlier, don't think about things you shouldn't think about. Otherwise, your surname is Xu, not Xue. You can't be the master of my family's affairs."

Xu Yinglan burst into tears, she didn't dare to say anything, she turned and went back to the yard.

Xue Qing cupped his hands towards Gu Ting: "Cousin was not like this before, it is indeed wrong to be rude in front of Young Master, I apologize to Young Master on her behalf, I am really sorry."

Gu Ting raised his eyebrows: "You don't need to apologize to me, it's not me that she's sorry."

Xue Qing bowed his head: "The palace has kindness to me and my mother, I can't repay the favor to the prince and cause trouble, my cousin... will not go to the palace again in the future."

Gu Ting was a little surprised, but he was a sensible child: "You are only fourteen, and you are still young. There are some things that you don't have to worry about. You should know that the prince's troubles are not something you can find if you want, nor can you get rid of them if you want. Yes, if you want to go to the battlefield in the future, practice martial arts and work hard."

He believes in Huo Yan's temper, he will not listen to one side, nor will he be unfair. He dares to play around under the guise, and he knows what he has done. No one will be unlucky or prosperous with Huo Yan. If Xue Qing is really a talent worth cultivating, Huo Yan will not bury it. If Xue Qing does not take it in the end, it must not be because Xu Yinglan has no rules.

Xue Qing's eyes were a little excited, and he looked at Wu Feng: "Do you want to test me?"

Wu Feng: "Yes..."

or not?

Changzui's throat trembled, and he looked at Gu Ting pitifully, "Master, help me, I'm afraid I can't do it, what if the kung fu of a three-legged cat can't compare to that of a serious soldier?"How embarrassing?

Gu Ting smiled and nodded, very gentle and full of encouragement: "Go."

Wu Feng: ...

Sooner or later, he will be cheated to death by his young master!

The two quickly exchanged hands, you dismantled me to block you, you backed away from me, your figure moved and leaped, and everyone was dazzled, neither of these is a fuel-efficient lamp!

At the beginning, some people clenched their fists and applauded, all kinds of applause.

But the good times didn't last long, Wu Feng seemed to be slipping on the soles of his feet, he lost his balance when stepping on the wall to borrow his strength, and received Xue Qing's slap hard, his figure flew obliquely, and with a "bang", he fell heavily on the door panel.

The door panel next to Xue Qing's house.

I don't know if it was because he was too heavy, or because Xue Qing punched too hard, the door latch failed to withstand it, and it was knocked open directly, the door crashed down, throwing out a cloud of dust.

If you get into trouble, you won't be able to continue the fight.

As the master, Gu Ting was very responsible. He immediately stepped forward and shouted softly, "Is anyone in the house? Sorry, my parents accidentally broke your door—"

Gu Ting thought that he would have to wait for the other party to respond, but before he finished speaking, the door of the room opened, and a man stood by the door.

man?

Gu Ting's pupils shrank.

This man was very thin, pale, and looked a little sick. He was wearing a long gown, and his temperament was a bit like that of some dead-educated scholar.

Gu Ting cupped his hands: "The door is rude, I'm bothering you."

The man's eyes were quiet: "It's just a small matter, don't worry about it."

Gu Ting took out his purse, and walked forward: "Your Excellency is generous, but I can't pretend to be fine, at least I hope to accept the money for repairing the door..."

As he got closer, Gu Ting noticed with his sharp eyes that although the man was standing straight, his right arm was motionless, and there was a faint smell of blood. He was still holding on to the wall with his left hand, with great strength, as if it took all his strength just to stand—

injured?That's why I can't leave, so I have to stay here?

People are not Gan Siniang, but they are absolutely extraordinary!

Gu Ting immediately thought about it, he didn't dare to go any closer, he put his purse on the stone table at the door and was about to leave: "Excuse me."

"Wait a minute, my lord," the man suddenly opened the door, "Do you want to come in and sit down?"

His eyes flickered, seemingly malicious.

But if you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get tiger cubs?Gu Ting smiled happily: "Okay."
