Vol 3 Chapter 71: Portrait of the man

When Wan Li swaggered into Yongning Palace, he saw Minglan kneeling in the courtyard and being punished, his head drooping, and his appearance was embarrassing and funny. +++The latest Danmei novel ranking: www.sto123.cc网o
One side of the thick black sword eyebrow was playfully raised, Wan Li walked over with his hand held down, and the moiré on the foundation kicked him on his boots, bending over to approach Minglan, smiling slyly:
"Hey, why did you kneel and make my eldest sister angry?"
Nearly half an hour before the penalty was kneeling, Ming Lan supported her with one hand, and the tiles made her knee hurt, and the pain had already spread all over her body. At this moment, the facial features of his awkward face were shifted, grinning:
"... Lord Hou, don't mention it..."
"OK OK!"
Wan Li straightened his upper body and waved impatiently:
"Benhou understands that I will beg the eldest sister for you later."
After speaking, he stepped into the main hall easily.
Wan Yuyao was sulking in the top seat, her exquisite face was covered with frost, as if she could kill people in an instant. Under her feet, there was Tu Muxue, who was humbled and worshipped, her body trembling without saying a word.
Xiang Wan Yuyao handed over to see the gift, Wan Li laughed:
"How did Minglan offend the eldest sister? You are so reluctant to forgive him."
Wan Yuyao rolled her eyes coldly, throwing a sharp cold light towards the door, making a harsh voice:
"The dog slave has become more capable, and now he dares to deceive my palace when he does things!"
"He is fattened, Mo Ruo will be killed immediately!"
With cold eyes, Wan Li turned his head to look outside, and was about to ask the truth, Wan Yuyao's cold voice slowly sounded, like a cold blunt knife sharpening his skin, feeling strange:
"Xi'er, if you reveal useful information to this palace, this palace will judge your merits and reward you, and can't treat you badly. But if you are like the one outside, holding your side thoughts to this palace, this palace will never forgive you, do you understand? ?"
The girl's drooping, narrow eyes passed the sharp light, but her heart couldn't bear it, her complexion was light and submissive, and her lips opened slightly:
"Hui Niangniang, the servant girl has heard clearly."
"Okay, help Minglan up outside, tell him to go back and rest first, don't have to come in."
"Yes."
The girl got up and walked out of the main hall with her hands together.
When he came to the courtyard, Tu Muxue stopped under the steps, and his cold and unconscious eyes met Minglan's scarlet and unwilling eyes, and then approached without expression, and extended his arms to support Minglan:
"The mother is dead, please get up, Master Governor. Net o"
With a slight movement, the bones of Ming Lan's whole body hurt so much that they fell apart, and his limbs no longer listened to him.
After she reluctantly got up, Minglan glared at the girl, her voice as dark as a blade:
"Ms Mu Xue is really good at her skill and means, she rushed across the river and demolished the bridge when she didn't enter the palace very much? But your tactic of two birds with one stone may not work smoothly in Yongning Palace!"
The girl's face was calm, and she cast her eyes to Minglan:
"What is the master superintendent talking about? What bird, who is the bird? The servants are dull and don't understand."
Minglan pursed her lips, her peach blossom eyes narrowed:
"Not only do you want Gu Yunxi to die, but you also want to use her life experience to tell her to be buried with the governor, but you underestimate the empress. The governor tells you that as long as the empress wants to stay in Leng Qingtang, Gu Yunxi can't die. "
The girl looked directly at the coquettish face of the sullen man, and a sly smile appeared on his stern face:
"Then what about you? Leng Qingtang will live in Gu Yunxi, but your life and death are unpredictable. No matter what, the current situation for you...may not be dead."
In the main hall, Wan Li tilted his head and neck in the direction Tu Muxue walked all the way, lifting his nose and sniffing the remaining surging fragrant wind, his nose flapping greedily.
"Ouch!"
Wan Yuyao yelled irritably when she saw it, and slapped her hand at Wan Li, frowning in anger, and asked:
"Quickly, why did you come into the palace today?"
Wan Li narrowed his gaze, turned back to face the woman, smiled and squinted, arching his hands:
"This time it is God who helped me, and today the courtier's entry into the palace will bring you a secret."
"Another secret?"
Wan Yuyao pressed down the corner of her mouth in doubt, watched in a deep voice, Wan Li took out a page of rice paper from the sleeve of the brocade robe, and opened it to Wan Yuyao.
"Look, eldest sister, who is this picture?"
Wan Yuyao lowered her eyes slightly, the stream of light in her eyes flickered and she looked at the portrait for a moment, and she suddenly looked shocked:
"Could it be... this is Zheng Ran?"
Wan Li smiled wickedly, shook his head and said:
"After getting this portrait, the minister checked with his father and confirmed that it was Zheng Ran Doudou."
Wan Yuyao furrowed her brows, waved Wan Li to approach her, lowered her voice and asked:
"Where did you get this portrait?"
Manli's lips:
"The eldest sister may not believe it. This is when Lei Huan was sitting in the Swift Tower not long ago. He caught the picture from the mind of the person who broke the formation, and took the picture. o
Those who broke the formation that day wore masks, and their facial features could not be seen through, but among them there was a female attendant of Dongchang Fourth Grade. It is deduced from this that Dongchang or the admiral of Dongchang himself is inseparable from Zheng Ran. "
It's Leng Qingtang...
Wan Yuyao stared swiftly, her eyes mottled with brilliance, meaning unclear complexity:
"...Leng Qingtang, will it break the profound formation?"
Wan Li's face was slightly impatient, and he shook his head desperately:
"How confused is the eldest sister, even if Leng Qingtang will not break the formation, with the fake Tu Muxue as evidence, it is enough to show that the person who broke the formation is related to Dongchang, and Zheng Ran will appear in his mind. This is the good opportunity God has given us to bring down Leng Qingtang!"
Wan Yuyao's crystal face quietly dangled with a frightening look, she narrowed her eyes for a moment, and her words suddenly changed:
"Okay, I feel tired in this palace today, so let's go here. Taking advantage of the rain, you should leave the palace and return to Nanyuan soon!"
Wan Li's eyes widened suddenly, not knowing what the eldest sister suddenly changed. A fist was clenched in anger, and he continued to say something, when he saw Wan Yuyao close the rice paper in her hand and handed her head to Lihu without turning her head back:
"Go, find a safe place, and put it away carefully in this palace."
"Elder sister?"
"Okay, you can go back. In the land of the harem, you are a Houye and a foreign minister, so staying longer may cause inconvenience."
"...The minister retired."
After being inexplicably ordered by his own relatives, Wan Li looked ugly but couldn't keep it strong, so Shi Li retired with an anguish.
East Factory
The sky was getting dark, and Gu Yunxi rummaged in his own room in the South Yard.
Qinger opened the door and walked in, taking a pot of hot water to wait for her girl to wash.
Gu Yunxi pulled out a small wooden box from the carved cabinet with flowers blooming and rich, and said with joy to Qinger:
"Unexpectedly, the things I left here before are still there."
Qinger put down the kettle and said to her:
"Who said no? Don't talk about it in the East Factory. After you left the Admiral's Mansion that year, no one dared to move the list of furnishings in your house. The servants went in and only did daily cleaning."
Gu Yunxi smiled and sat down at the table with a wooden box in his hand:
"Don't be busy, Qing'er, come over, and while the governor is busy in the front hall, sit down and talk."
Qinger was pouring water into the basin, and when she was told to stop her work and wipe her hands, she leaned in front of Gu Yunxi with a look of confusion:
"Girl, what are you going to tell me?"
"sit."
Gu Yunxi's clear eyes turned to the round chair facing him, and his jaw was raised with a smile.
"This……"
Qing'er frowned slightly, hesitating:
"This is against the rules."
The girl in my memory has a lovely face and a sweet smile, which makes people very close.
Now, the voice of the person in front of him has not changed, but his facial features are completely lost, his expression is cold like a stream in the empty valley, and he has a sharp and cold expression.
"Qing'er, you know me best. I have never regarded you as a servant since the day I met you. I am the master. The two of us are close sisters."
Qing'er pressed her pink lips lightly, smiled and nodded, and slowly sat down on the opposite side.
The eyes are facing each other, and the memories in his head are like revolving revolving lanterns, and the scenes change endlessly.
That year, they were all in the cardamom years, with their own beauty in their hearts, and they were free to speak freely. However, time flies, the white horses pass the gap, and then meet again, each other is no longer young.
The eyebrows twitched suddenly, a rush of heat rushed to her eyes, Qing'er raised her hand and wiped her face, and sucked her nose:
"Girl, whenever I see you like this, the servant girl thinks that we were in the admiral's mansion. The servant girl really loves you. For the Dongchang, for our master, you have paid too much."
Gu Yunxi chuckled softly, his eyes were wet and red, and the water under his eyes shimmered, flashing:
"The superintendent saved my life. He has been silently working for many years in order to investigate the real culprit behind the murder of my house, and I am willing to do anything for him."
With wet eyes raised, Gu Yunxi looked directly at Qing'er:
"Don't mention the past, let's talk about you and Xiaoshen brother. Now that I see you like this, I know that he treats you very well. How, your intention is that he will never marry?"
Qing'er's face was ashamed, her small fleshy face flew into the clouds, her eyes were startled and bright, she fluttered for a moment before turning her head to the side, ten fingers clasped tightly, and said with confidence:
"Yeah! The slave and the maidservant think clearly, this life is his person."
Gu Yunxi's eyes were dyed with moving water, and his eyebrows were delighted:
"It can be seen that he loves you very much."
Qing'er lowered her eyes shallowly, a bitter aftertaste filled her heart, her eyelashes were slightly cool, her voice trembled in a daze:
"That year I went to Mingfu with Shidantou to save you, but fell into Minglan's trap. Those wild beasts treated me... I thought I was ruined all my life. If I didn't wait until your whereabouts, I might just find it. Short-sighted, let alone face Xiao Shen.
On the night when he returned to Beijing, he stayed in front of my room door for a whole day and night. He told me that he would never leave me in his life, and he wanted me to live well and wait for you to come back with him and Shidantou..."
Gu Yunxi's eyelashes raised suddenly, and while his heart was shaken by this indestructible feeling, his heart also filled with doubts.
With blinking eyes, Gu Yunxi spoke:
"Qing'er, do you have a misunderstanding? How do you know that you are not finished?"
Qing'er looked sad, looked at Gu Yunxi in surprise, and muttered:
"The opponents are all beasts of the West Factory... Ming Lan has already hated Dongchang. How can he let the invaders go?"
Gu Yunxi's complexion was burning, and he kept shaking his head:
"No, I was on the side that year. You lost your consciousness and almost suffered a bad hand. But Minglan did tell Tiqi to stop, but he didn't let his breath go, so he ordered his subordinates to persecute them."
Qing'er's clear eyes widened in shock, and she covered her mouth with her hands. The inside of her chest was like rising tide, ups and downs.
"Say so, say so..."
The girl was so excited that she cried and laughed in front of Gu Yunxi:
"Slaves, slaves are still finished?!"
After a moment of tears, Gu Yunxi nodded firmly, his voice trembled:
"I think it is very true. There is nothing wrong. Fortunately, you have not rejected Xiao Shen for this. Otherwise, after two years, will Xiao Shen be sad to die?"
Qinger burst into tears in an instant, and she was pleasantly surprised.
Gu Yunxi brushed the corner of his eyes and let out a deep breath:
"Now it’s okay, I’m misunderstood, you and Xiaoshen brother will cherish each other even more in the future. The superintendent has said that after dealing with the matter at hand, we will choose a good day and auspicious day to marry you two. This is my little heart, you Take it."
Gu Yunxi pushed the wooden box on the table to Qing'er.
Qinger was puzzled:
"Girl, what's in it?"
Gu Yunxi smiled:
"Your dowry, open it and take a look."
