Chapter 60
Gu Chen's hands paused when he heard the words, and Yun Ran's expression didn't seem to change, but she could clearly feel Yun Ran's uneasiness and fear.Holding him in his arms and gently hugging him, Gu Chen whispered against Yun Ran's cheek, "Don't be afraid, I'm here for everything, and I'll be by your side. It's okay."
In fact, Gu Chen still has some doubts about the true identity of the city lord's wife. Even if she came out of Tanyue Pavilion, she might not be the former pavilion lord, Yun Ran's mother. Infatuated, Gu Chen didn't believe that she would leave Yunran alone in the capital and let her go.
That's not like something a mother would do!
"Pavilion Master." It was Mr. Qi Yue Qi who came out to greet him.Qi Yue's face was pale, and with bloodshot eyes, it could be seen that this period of time was not good. When he saw Yun Ran, he looked ashamed, but Qingluan blocked him when he wanted to say something.
"Young Master Qi, lead the way." Qingluan swung a sword across his hand, looking fierce and not polite at all.
"Madam was ill a few days ago, and my father said that it is inconvenient to see guests." Qi Yue was a little afraid to look at him: "He is willing to entertain the pavilion master on behalf of Madam. This way please."
"My wife and I are old acquaintances. Could it be that she doesn't even see me?" Yun Ran frowned.
"Your madam of the city lord has been ill, which shows that she is not in good health." Gu Chen took Yunran's hand without any scruples: "The doctor I found is not very capable. For the sake of our acquaintance, I don't mind going. Take a look for the mayor's wife."
"This..." Qi Yue was hesitating for a while, just as he was welcoming people in, he saw the city lord: "Father, the pavilion master and the young master have arrived." Seeing the city lord ordering the servants to serve tea, Qi Yue said again: " Father, Medicine Valley's medical skills are famous all over the world, now that the young master is here, how about, please ask the young master to take a look for your wife?"
"You're the only one talking too much!" The city lord gave him a hard look.
Yunran looked at the always kind city lord as if he had encountered some setbacks, and now he had become old-fashioned, so he guessed that something happened to the city lord's family.
"Why does the city lord have to do this?" Gu Chen held the teacup and blew on the froth: "Mr. Qi is also a kind person. You must know that my medicine valley is not for everyone to see. This one is just for my wife and Tanyue Pavilion. In terms of relationship, I am willing to help you regardless of previous suspicions. Don’t forget, my lord, if it weren’t for your son’s pity and love for jade, how could I lose a general in Tanyue Pavilion, and the girl who is as beautiful as a flower and jade is not letting you delay Already!" Gu Chen put down the teacup as he spoke: "If it wasn't for Madam, would you consider us willing to come to your door?"
The city lord's face was not good when he heard the words: "I didn't make friends with the son, and we will give her an explanation for Miss Aying. However, my wife has long since had nothing to do with your Tanyue Pavilion. Madam is not in good health. Please come back!"
The words were not polite, and he stood up and chased away people: "I am busy with chores here, and I will not leave the pavilion master for tea, see off the guests!"
"Nothing to do with it?" Yun Ran said lightly: "Since she uses my thousand soldiers as my Tanyue Pavilion, she is a member of my Tanyue Pavilion. Since she admits that she is a member of Tanyue Pavilion, today I am in the Pavilion. The lord is here, why didn't she see her?" Yun Ran put the teacup heavily on the table, looked at the city lord and asked, "Qingluan, what should I do with those who disrespect the pavilion master?"
"Eighty sticks, breaking the tendons of the hands and hamstrings and expulsing the eyes." Qingluan replied in a cold voice: "If you receive the punishment, you will have nothing to do with it!"
"Hmph, I'd like to see who you dare to touch on my territory!" The city lord grabbed the teacup and threw it on the ground: "Why don't she bring someone to save you, your boat will not even have ashes What's left, there is no chance for you to be arrogant here today!"
The situation was tense for a moment, and the twin sisters Hua drew their swords and stood in front of Yunran. It seems that today, no matter whether the city lord agrees or not, the lady will not be able to see her!
"Wait a minute, everyone." A woman in a yellow shirt hurried over and blocked the city lord.Faced with such a situation, he was very calm. He saluted Yun Ran politely before saying, "My maidservant under the seat of the Holy Emissary of Kong Xing sees the Pavilion Master."
Emissary of the Sky Star?Who is it again?Gu Chen went to see Yunran, and saw that her eyes lit up for a moment after hearing the name, and she quickly returned to her original state, even with some disappointment mixed in.
"Where is the envoy?" Yun Ran asked.
"Pavilion Lord please." The woman in yellow led the way and said to the City Lord: "Madam, tell me, the City Lord doesn't have to come, she can handle it well, please don't worry about the City Lord."
The style of the backyard of the city owner's house is completely different from the gentleness of the south of the Yangtze River. There are no small bridges and flowing water, but more rocks and rocks, which is a bit more majestic and majestic. It doesn't look like the handwriting of Jiangnan craftsmen.
The woman in yellow who led the way noticed Gu Chen's gaze, and explained as she walked: "My wife doesn't like the small stones in the south of the Yangtze River, and thinks they are tasteless. They are specially picked from Mount Huang, and I invited a master in the capital to make them. It’s like this, others say it’s ugly, but madam likes it, there’s nothing I can do about it.” What she said was actually very clever, it looked like she was talking about stones, but in fact, the words revealed a lot of deep feelings between madam and the city lord Otherwise, the inner courtyard would not have spent so much effort. It was made of stones and craftsmen just to please her.
"Here we are, Pavilion Master please." The woman in yellow opened the curtain and did not go in: "Madam is waiting inside."
Yunran stopped and stood outside the door for a long time before walking in. The sound of the music came intermittently, occasionally accompanied by a few coughs.Gu Chen whispered to Yun Ran: "The breath is vain, and the cough is muffled and rapid. This lady has been ill for a long time, and there are old wounds that have not healed."
"The young master of Medicine Valley really lives up to his reputation." A slightly clear voice said, "There are indeed old wounds."
But it directly frightened Gu Chen, he hurriedly went to look at Yunran, and saw that Yunran's expression was as usual, it seemed that he had known it for a long time.That's not right, Yun Ran didn't know about it before, it should have been when the maid reported herself to her family, Gu Chen didn't realize what was going on with Yun Ran's reaction at that time, but now she's more or less aware of it.
No one told her that this empty star saint made him a man!
"Where is my mother? Why you?" Yun Ran was not polite, and asked directly: "Is my mother still alive?"
"Well, I don't know." The person who came was Kong Xing, and the lotus green robe was worn on him, and he had been ill for a long time: "I, the pavilion master, and your mother have been running around doing things for the court. In the end, I took a case. We had a dispute at the time, and I didn’t want to continue, so I went south halfway. Later, I heard that there was a problem with her, and the action plan was leaked. When I encountered an ambush, I hurried back. Rescue, but it still didn't help, the operation failed, most of my brothers died, and I was also seriously injured in that accident, I looked for her, but I couldn't find her, not even a body." Kong Xing was a little sad: "I'm very sad. I regret not being with her at the time, maybe if I could remind her to be more careful, maybe nothing will happen."
The accident that Kong Xing mentioned was the last action that Yun Ran's mother took. Yun Ran remembered that no one came back from that action, including her mother, and Kong Xing who followed her in the end.In the end, everyone said that the operation failed and her mother died, so Yun Ran believed it.
Now, empty stars suddenly appeared.
"I haven't left since I came to Jiangnan. Firstly, the situation in Jiangnan is complicated, and your mother is the most worried about here. Second, there is someone I care about." Kong Xing smiled: "Let's go when I was young." After traveling too far, I don’t want to move anymore when I’m old. If you hadn’t been to Zheshazhou last time, I thought you were ambushed by Jiyue, and I wouldn’t show up to let you notice. Yunran, I’m sorry, I let you down. "
Kong Xing said lightly: "I originally didn't want to have anything to do with Tanyue Pavilion. After all, if I hadn't had a conflict with your mother, she wouldn't be alone and helpless, and she wouldn't fail in the end. I was wrong, and I didn't. See you face to face."
"It's just like this?" Yun Ran stared into Kong Xing's eyes: "Since this is the case, why did you use Huanchen Beads to ask Master Chen Duo to lead me over? If you really don't want to, then you can do it so that I have nothing to do." So, why did you deliberately draw my attention when I first came to visit?"
Kong Xing didn't have much reaction to Yunran's doubts, but just took a small box and gave it to Yunran: "Because, this thing has to be given to you. I can't go to Kyoto, so I can only let you come here. Besides, Kyoto It's not for you there, it's good for you to leave there, at least I think so, you're fine now, and you'll be better in the future."
The feeling of holding the small wooden box is very different. Yunran looked at Kong Xing for a moment, and he just smiled slightly: "This thing just arrived in my hand, and I have been looking for opportunities for you. Now I can finally give it to you." gone."
"Okay, I won't keep you guys anymore." Kong Xing stepped forward, wanted to touch Yunran's hair but realized something was inappropriate, so he withdrew his hand: "I had a friendship with your mother, and now Tanyue Pavilion is handed over to you If your mother knows, she will be very happy."
"The envoy really doesn't know my mother." Yun Ran wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Kong Xing: "I'm sorry, we all hope that your mother can still live in this world. Seeing that you are so old, she must be very happy." I am gratified, but there are some things that cannot be forced."
Yun Ran pinched the small box and lowered her eyes: "I'll accept the things, I'm taking the liberty."
"No problem."
Gu Chen looked at it for a while and felt that he should say something: "Then what, I think you look bad and you are full of old injuries, why not..."
"Medicine Valley is a place where famous doctors from all over the world gather. I know my body, but it's just that it's useless when I'm old." Kong Xing laughed at himself: "Just take care of it, there's no big problem, so I won't bother the young master."
Gu Chen was rejected, and he didn't say anything. It felt like he ran away for nothing, but seeing Yun Ran's appearance, he didn't seem to be.On the way back, Gu Chen was very interested in the small box, but she couldn't open it while holding the box. The mechanism box was too powerful. Seeing that Yun Ran didn't seem interested in the box, she had no choice but to give up.
On the other side, in the backyard of the city lord's mansion, there is a piano in front of Kong Xing, and the person standing beside him is Chen Zhoufang, the chief rudder of the three provinces in the south of the Yangtze River!
"Hidden?"
Kong Xing plucked the strings casually: "I don't know. How can I hide it? Just relying on the Huanchen Bead to confirm that she is not dead? If she is not dead, where is she? If you don't know anything, how can you hide it? Give it to her, let's talk about it." .”
"Could it be a scam?"
"I don't know." Kong Xing still said the same thing: "There is no one else but her who can send things to me." If it wasn't for that letter, Yunran, a little girl who was raised in the palace, wanted to clean up Ji. Yue, an old fox, how could it be so easy?
