The first male queen [crossing]

"You should be related to that Princess Xinrui."

As Gu Junci spoke seriously, Meng Chengye clenched his fists tightly and glared at Gu Junci. The next moment he punched Gu Junci. Gu Junci deftly dodged Meng Chengye's attack and retreated step by step.

Hiding and hiding, Gu Junci didn't hide anymore. Facing Meng Chengye's ruthless attack, he also knew that he had punctured the secret that the other party had been hiding all along, and the other party would naturally become angry from embarrassment. So he changed his moves and went all out to fight Meng Chengye.

The two left the table suddenly, and fought again in the backyard. Naturally, someone went to report it to the owner. Now, a group of people who had been drinking and boisterously in the front hall came to the backyard one after another, watching Gu Junci and Meng Chengye fight from the courtyard. Hit the roof, and hit the courtyard from the roof.

In the end, it was the owner Duan who took the shot and separated the two people who were inseparable from each other, preventing them from fighting again.

Yan Huai was supported by Xu Yanqing, looking at Gu Junci who had calmed down at this moment, he hurriedly said: "Thirteenth brother, what are you doing?"

Gu Junci flexed his wrist, and said with a smile: "It was my fault. I accidentally exposed the scar of the second master. He settled accounts with me, but he was beaten and hurt, so I had no choice but to fight back."

Meng Chengye looked at all the people here with cold eyes, and without any further explanation, he turned around and went to the pavilion, and went back to his room with his piano in his arms.

Gu Junci clasped his fists to Duan Yuntian apologetically and said: "Please tell the second master that I am talking too much, and please don't take it to heart. I have caused unnecessary trouble with you tonight, please Lord forgive me."

Duan Yuntian smiled: "Mr. Gu is also a man of temperament, everyone will not take it to heart, but just now I saw Mr. Gu's dexterity, and I think this skill is not bad."

Gu Junci smiled a little embarrassedly: "Just laugh, just laugh."

Duan Yuntian didn't pursue anything further, so he went back to the front hall to meet them again, and continued the banquet.

In the next few days, Yan Huai was taken care of by Xu Yanqing, so Gu Junci was naturally relieved, but the case of the granary being robbed in Jinzhou Prefecture was naturally to be investigated, after all, this was the purpose of their trip .

The Taoist master came up with a plan, and asked Gu Junci to change his identity, and went to the city to investigate the case quietly with the people from Poyun Villa, and gained a lot.

Especially in the warehouse of the commercial firm that robbed the grain, Gu Junci also found that the rice sold to the people was old and slightly moldy. The official is not correct.

In the tea shed on the street, Gu Junci, who was pretending to be a Taoist boy, held a teacup in a daze, but the Taoist priest beside him still had a smiling face:

"The Thirteen Taibao still can't believe it?"

Gu Junci: "I used to work in the palace, and I rarely had the opportunity to interact with the people. Later, I went to Langya to study. The people in Langya also lived a happy and prosperous life. Later, I went to Hanyang Pass and passed Zhuozhou. When I met Huo Situ, Yang Junfang and the others, it was the first time I knew that the people had lived such a hard life, not only had to bear heavy taxes, but also had to spend manpower to dig canals and build dragon boats. All this was just for His Majesty's desire to go to Yangzhou Look at the viburnum blooming."

The Taoist priest stroked his beard and said, "In the land of Langya in Lanling, there are gentry who dominate the formation. As long as they have benevolence and righteousness in their hearts, the people under their command will naturally be able to live a good life, but it is very different in other places."

Gu Jun resigned and put the tea bowl on the table: "I remember the second son Xiao said that the people in this world should be the first. Only when the people are happy can the country be stable. Because of this, the court with treacherous officials needs my adoptive father." As long as he is there, there will still be people who are afraid of treacherous people and dare not do anything wrong."

A trace of surprise flashed in Daoist Priest's eyes: "Second Young Master Xiao, could it be the Second Young Master from Lanling Xiao Clan?"

Gu Junci nodded vigorously: "It's him. When I get along with him, I realize that this person is not as simple as he appears on the surface. He is decisive, but he also has benevolence and righteousness in his heart. He is a good son of a family."

The Taoist leader thought for a while: "I was lucky enough to go to Lanling back then. At that time, the second son was still young, but he was able to advance and retreat with restraint and treat others well. He is really a model of a gentleman."

Gu Junci nodded and smiled, grabbed the tea bowl and drank the tea.

The Daoist said again: "But in the whole world, not all the families like Xiao and Wang can really benefit the common people. As far as Jinzhou is concerned, Mr. Gu has also seen it with his own eyes. Merchants are treacherous, old and moldy rice can be sold for twice the normal price, and even the government sells them the grain in the granary, and the government and business collude, but no one dares to move."

Gu Junci: "Since it is the case of Lai Granary, we can't just investigate the robbery of the Poyun Villa, but also investigate how and where it was robbed, and even bring this corrupt official and profiteer back to Luoyang."

The Taoist priest said bluntly: "Mr. Gu, do you think this can solve the worries of the people? The source is clear and the flow is clear, but the source is turbid and the flow is naturally more turbid. Mr. Gu should understand the meaning of being poor. The corruption of the court does not happen overnight. It only solves individuals. It’s just a drop in the bucket.”

Gu Junci stared sideways at the words of the Taoist priest, the meaning of the words could not be more clear, but it also coincided with Gu Junci's original thoughts, and it was just overwhelmed.

"If there is no chaos, there will be no cure. If there is no chaos, there will be great chaos. Only after the chaos is over, can there be long-term peace and stability." The Taoist priest stroked his beard lightly and said, then he got up and submerged himself into the crowd.

Gu Junci nodded and smiled, and was about to get up when he was surrounded by the tea stall owner, Gu Junci looked blank: "What are you doing?"

The boss said: "The Taoist priest is also funny, you haven't given tea money yet for drinking tea."

Gu Junci hurriedly reached into his waist to take out the money, but just after paying the money, he remembered why Dao ran so fast. It turned out that he was hiding tea money, which is really a thief.

After returning to Poyun Villa, Gu Junci naturally told Yan Huai all the information he found in the city, and discussed with Yan Huai that he should leave Poyun Villa and go back to Jinzhou City, but just said a few words , There was a knock on the door outside.

Gu Junci hurriedly got up and went to open the door, looking at Meng Chengye standing outside the door, he couldn't help being a little surprised: "Why is the second in charge here?"

Meng Chengye reached out and handed the stack of ledgers and several letters to Gu Junci: "For you."

Gu Junci reached out to take the account book and letterhead, but was still a little surprised by Meng Chengye's behavior: "The second leader gave me these..."

Meng Chengye turned around and was about to leave: "It's all about eliminating harm for the people. There are some things we can only do for a while. If we want to completely eradicate them, we still have to rely on the government."

Gu Junci hurriedly lowered his head to look at the account book, then turned his head to look at Yan Huai who was coming. After Meng Chengye bowed to him, he turned and left without waiting for Yan Huai to make a sound.

Yan Huai looked at the account book and letterhead in his hand, and there seemed to be fresh blood on the envelope, so he couldn't help asking: "Could the second in charge be injured?"

Gu Junci recalled how he looked when he met Meng Chengye just now. He was wearing black clothes, so it was hard to tell whether he was injured or not, but there was indeed fresh blood on the letter, so he also handed over the account book and letter to Yan Huai. Then Gu Junci chased after Meng Chengye.

The lights in Meng Chengye's room were dimly lit. He untied his wrist strap to reveal the wound from the hidden weapon. His eyes were already dimly darkened, and the hidden weapon in the box must have been smeared with poison.

Gu Junci stood at the door, watching Meng Chengye biting the handkerchief to force the poison on the wound, Gu Junci couldn't help being shocked by the painful appearance, and hurriedly knocked on the door, causing Meng Chengye to quickly put down his sleeves and look up as if nothing had happened. Looking at Gu Jun and saying:

"What are you doing."

Gu Junci saw that he didn't chase away the guests, so he walked in swaggeringly, took out the golden sore medicine in his arms and put it on the table: "I came to fight with you, I didn't enjoy the fight last time."

Meng Chengye raised his eyes to meet Gu Junci's, and seeing him sitting down in front of him, he was a little wary: "I'm not free right now."

Gu Junci nodded, wanted to lift his sleeves but was avoided by Meng Chengye, he looked at Meng Chengye and said, "Why do you want to steal the ledger? I can get these things myself."

Meng Chengye: "For the people of Jinzhou Prefecture, are you satisfied? Go out."

Gu Junci sat still: "Why don't you let me clean up the wound for you, I'm a little bit more careful than the boss in this villa."

Meng Chengye didn't refute him, and let Gu Junci open his sleeves, looked at the horrific wound, and carefully cleaned up the blood:

"Did the Taoist priest tell you about me?"

Gu Junci nodded: "When I inquired, what he said was very vague, and he deliberately erased your origin. I just guessed it based on the story told by Brother Twelve."

Meng Chengye said: "All of them never asked me where I came from."

Gu Junci raised his head and glanced at him: "I know, this is the so-called loyalty in the world. Employers are not suspicious, just like I have been trusted so much."

Meng Chengye was a little puzzled.

Gu Junci smiled and said: "As for me, I come from a place that no one knows, but there is such a person who trusts me wholeheartedly and supports each other with me, so I know why these people in Poyun Villa don't Ask you, because you deserve their trust."

Meng Chengye: "Really."

Gu Junci smiled: "Although I am a member of the government, I may meet you in the future, but I don't mind telling you this at all, I just want to say that what happened last time was my fault, I shouldn't Wild guesses."

"You guessed right." Meng Chengye said.

The smile on Gu Junci's face froze, a little surprised.

Meng Chengye said: "Princess Xinrui is my mother, and I inherited my piano skills from her. After I was taken away from Xishu by my wet nurse, I have been living incognito. I have no nostalgia for my homeland in my heart, and it is even the same as what you think. , as long as the people are happy, that’s why I took part in the imperial examination and won the first prize. However, just because at the Qionglin Banquet, some people said that I was a master at the piano, and after the emperor asked me to play a piece, he guessed that I was from Xishu. His descendants deprived me of being the No. [-] Scholar, expelled me from the palace, and will never be allowed to participate in the scientific examination.”

Gu Junci looked at Meng Chengye who was calmly telling what happened to him, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Meng Chengye continued: "I remember my mother's hatred, but I never thought about revenge, but what the emperor gave me was expulsion, suppression, and evaluations that would be different from my race."

Gu Junci met his eyes, still calm without any waves.

Meng Chengye: "There is no way to fool the king, and one day there will be his retribution."
