Inside the room, Gu Jinzhi sat at the table that had been prepared, shaking the folding fan in his hand, quietly listening to the cheap master at the table telling what happened in Qingzhou recently.

In his mind, he was recalling the scenes he had seen since he stepped into Qingzhou, but he was suddenly shocked by Zhou Qi's words:

"What are you, he is the master of this mansion?!" Gu Jinzhi, who had just learned the name of the other party, looked at Fang Qiong, who was smiling gently at him, with a bitter expression on his face.

That being the case, then if he just arranged outside the mansion, if the owner of this mansion is the master's little lover, wouldn't it be...

Zhou Qi rolled his eyes at him, with the usual disgust on his face, as if taking Gu Jinzhi as his apprentice would cut his lifespan: "How many times have I told you, brat, you should use honorific names for elders."

Gu Jinzhi accepted it as soon as he saw it, and saw that Fang Qiong on the side had no intention of pursuing it, so he bowed respectfully to Zhou Qi.Then he picked up the cup on the table and formally offered a cup of tea to the master who had no actual status:

"Master, you always drink tea to quench the fire."

Zhou Qi took the teacup, gulped it down, and then slammed it back on the table, snorting disdainfully.

But he didn't reject his master.

Gu Jinzhi looked at it funny, and thought that this person is really soft-hearted as always, and he is also a rare one who keeps his word.

It is not in vain to go to Qingzhou this time.

"The current situation in Qingzhou is not optimistic. Your imperial brother sent you here, presumably not just to let you find a master." Fang Qiong, who had been sitting in the first place and had not spoken a word, suddenly spoke, just like a few years ago. Tsing Yi, with a calm posture.

He took a sip of the tea in his hand unhurriedly, and then said leisurely: "He was better in the past. Now he rarely does useless work."

Gu Jinzhi has also regained his composure now, his imperial brother really never does useless work, and sending him to Qingzhou this time, I am afraid that he has heard about the situation in Qingzhou before.

Since I already knew it, this trip to Qingzhou is probably a test for myself.

Wen Rugui was sent to Xuzhou first, and then sent to Qingzhou. Is the emperor planning to clean up Yingdu?

Now the people of Qingzhou look at it more like they have been hit by a drought. I don't know what is going on with Wen Rugui in Xuzhou...

"Stinky boy!" Zhou Qi, who was as quiet as a chicken when Fang Qiong spoke, turned his head and saw the expression of the silly apprentice he had just recognized. Which girl do you think of, with such a rippling smile—"

Gu Jin was stunned, he just thought about the Xuzhou matter, where did Zhou Qi come to the conclusion that he was thinking about which girl?

That guy Wen Rugui couldn't compare to those beautiful girls who are as beautiful as flowers and jade, they are so hard to hug, they have a big temper, and they can't get a little dust... Except for his face, how much more can people tolerate him? point.

If this is a girl, no one but myself can stand him for so many years.

Except for himself... Gu Jinzhi suddenly woke up, as if he had been led into a pit by that stupid master.

If Wen Rugui knew what he was thinking just now, he would have to laugh at him again.

After Gu Jinzhi thought about it, he gave Master Silly a rather angry look, and stabbed him: "I'm just thinking about Xuzhou, do you think everyone is as virtuous as you?"

Hearing what he said, Zhou Qi immediately got angry, and opened his mouth to argue: "What did you say? Let Aqiong talk about it. The expression on your face just now is so obvious that you almost can't say it. How can you-" —”

"Hey!" Fang Qiong, who was sitting by the side laughing and not saying a word, stopped the two of them in time, and said softly: "If you two quarrel in my yard again, then tonight you two will be on your own. Let's go outside the house and find a place to live."

The silly apprentice and the silly master looked at each other, and they both stopped talking.

"Speaking of business, I'm also sending people to secretly investigate the current situation in Qingzhou." Fang Qiong knocked on the wooden table with his fingers, and a servant came in from outside the door.

He was dressed in the most common house servant clothes, a gray cloth, and even his face was dusty, but it wasn't that the dust had covered up his original appearance, but his face was just like that.

He was a little older, and even his steps were a little trembling when he walked, making people feel that he was about to fall down in a second.But he walked steadily step by step, and he paused step by step, extremely powerful.

"My lord." He saluted respectfully to several people, and then stood quietly aside, like a standing ancient clock, silent.

"Uncle Liu, tell me." Fang Qiong nodded, motioning for him to say.

Uncle Liu nodded, and said, "This old slave has been staying in Qingzhou City these days, and found a lot of strange things in this city."

"In today's Qingzhou City, there is almost no food left, and the people are relying on the food saved at home. The city is suffering from hunger at this time, but there is no one in Qingzhou Prefecture to appease the people. On the contrary, the state capital During the past half month, the daily banquets have caused the people to be very dissatisfied. If it continues to ferment, I am afraid that Qingzhou will become the source of the people's turmoil in the near future."

"The root cause?" Gu Jin was stunned. Before coming here, didn't the emperor say that a famine had broken out in Xuzhou, and most of the people had turned into bandits?Even if there is a riot in Qingzhou now, shouldn't Xuzhou be the first to bear the brunt?

Could it be that……

A few drops of cold sweat fell down Gu Jinzhi's forehead, his heart was shocked, and he lost his voice: "There is no riot in Xuzhou?!"

Therefore, it has always been Qingzhou that has had accidents, and Xuzhou is just a false report to deceive the court.

But since Brother Huang knew that Xuzhou was fine, why did he send Wen Rugui to Xuzhou and him to Qingzhou?It is clear that he is far inferior to Wen Rugui in terms of governing the country and keeping the people safe...

Fang Qiong laughed, but did not affirm his words, but gave him a rather meaningful look: "No, something happened to Xuzhou. But you don't have to worry about the other little guy. Say, it’s not unsolvable.”

Hearing the word "little guy" suddenly, Gu Jinzhi hadn't reacted, blinked his eyes, and finally came to his senses - Fang Qiong was talking about Wen Rugui.

Realizing the teasing in his tone, he grabbed his sleeve uncomfortably and retorted in a low voice: "I'm not worried about Wen Rugui, I'm just worried about the situation in Xuzhou."

"Compared to him, I might as well worry about myself right now. After all, I almost lost my life on the first day I entered Qingzhou."

Fang Qiong glanced at him, but didn't expose him. Young people's temperaments are always reserved, and they are no different from Zhou Qi back then.

On the contrary, Zhou Qi, who was acting as the background board, seemed to understand something when he saw Gu Jinzhi's appearance. He winked at Fang Qiong for a while, opened his mouth and gestured:

Didn’t, think, come, I, this, disciple, disciple, with, me, still, yes, have, some, similar, like, of, place, place.

Seeing his stupid look, Fang Qiong turned his gaze away without looking sideways, but a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

This person really has been like this for more than ten years, it seems that he has never changed.

But when several people in the hall were having their own thoughts, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door, which was a bit heavy.

Immediately, He Yong's voice sounded outside the door, always full of energy: "Master, just now my subordinates caught a carrier pigeon outside the yard. I saw it wandering outside the yard, as if it wanted to come in, so I snatched it up. "

Gu Jinzhi held his forehead, and weakly called him in.Could it be that He Yong caught some other news blindly.

With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open, and He Yong quickly slipped in with his chubby body, but when he passed Uncle Liu, his footsteps slipped and he staggered, but Uncle Liu stretched out his hands to hold him firmly.

"Young master, be careful, don't fall." Uncle Liu's hoarse voice was very rough, with a little imperceptible tremor.

He Yong smiled, and cheerfully said to the unknown old man, "Understood, grandpa."

"well……"

He Yong stood firm, and as if offering a treasure again, he handed the white dove that he had been holding in his hand to his master, with an expression of why don't you praise me for the good deeds I have done.

Gu Jinzhi stretched out his hand to pick up the carrier pigeon with some amusement, thinking that someone's carrier pigeon was unlucky and He Yong caught it.

Who would have thought that as soon as the carrier pigeon touched him, it seemed to have seen its owner, and rushed over, regardless of its feet being still grabbed by Gu Jinzhi.That eager look really seemed to come to him.

This carrier pigeon is by no means a carrier pigeon he raised, and he could recognize him, how could it be possible, he had never seen this carrier pigeon before.He only accepted Wen Rugui——

Gu Jin froze for a moment, and suddenly remembered the little jade beads that Wen Rugui stuffed for him before he left.I remembered what the man said when he left:

"This bead is stained with the familiar spice that my courier raised. When you receive my letter, don't think it's from some wild boy. I might be waiting for your help, Gu Ziyu."

Could it be that something happened to Wen Rugui, did he write to him for help?

Gu Jinzhi hurriedly looked at the feet of the carrier pigeon, and sure enough, he saw a neatly wrapped note, and hurriedly opened it, only to find that there were two neat lines written on the note——

I have arrived in Xuzhou, how are you doing in Yingdu? --temperature

Looking at the familiar handwriting on the note, Gu Jinzhi didn't know whether to cry or laugh.He and Wen Xingyuan have been inseparable since childhood, even if one of them leaves Yingdu, they will write letters every now and then to report their safety.

Now that Wen Xingyuan has arrived in Xuzhou, he still followed the old practice and sent him a letter, but he had already forgotten about this matter.

The nervousness just now dissipated without a trace, and the depression in my heart was finally exhaled.

Gu Jinzhi patted his forehead helplessly.After all, it is the friendship of many years, after all, I can't rest assured.

He Yong looked at his master's frightened and relieved appearance for a while, he was puzzled, and asked suspiciously: "Master?"

Gu Jinzhi didn't answer, but Zhou Qi and Fang Qiong looked at each other and drove He Yong out: "Your master is busy answering the letter. Let's go, we should go too, don't get in the way here." With people."

Zhou Qi pushed He Yong's round body and pushed him outside the door, while holding Fang Qiong's left hand, and led him out of the house, and Uncle Liu at the side also retreated consciously when he saw this.

Zhou Qi dragged Fang Qiong away, and He Yong didn't like the corner of his master, so he left in a blink of an eye, still humming an unknown tune.

The elderly Uncle Liu stood where he was, staring closely at the fat figure as he left, with an expression on his face that seemed to be crying but not crying.

Gradually, the back figure disappeared out of sight, and Uncle Liu also turned his head and left tremblingly, his footsteps seemed relieved.

On the other side, He Yong leaned against the door the moment he stepped into the door, with tears streaming down his face and choking with sobs.
