Chapter 297 The Strange Man
It was dawn when the sky in Taifu's mansion turned pale.

After Gu Qingcheng simply washed up, he simply packed a few sets of casual clothes for himself.

Then, she quietly bid farewell to Gu Qingyi and Mrs. Gu, and secretly went out through the side door.

No one in the entire Taifu's mansion noticed that the noble concubine of Daqing Kingdom was no longer in the Taifu's mansion.

Out of the palace, out of Taifu's mansion.

This was the first time that Gu Qingcheng went out of the palace alone to look at the bustling world outside since he traveled here.

Gu Qingcheng's mood was bright.

Of course, if the two little followers behind him were ignored, Gu Qingcheng might be in a better mood.

Here, Gu Qingcheng rushed to Nanshan with two accompanying people.

Over there, when Yan Chang'an learned that Gu Qingcheng was going out of the palace to live in the Taifu's mansion for a while, he knew Gu Qingcheng's golden cicada's plan to get rid of its shell.

So he secretly led his subordinates to follow Gu Qingcheng all the way to Nanshan.

The distance from the imperial palace to Nanshan is not far, but it is not close.

Gu Qingcheng drove the carriage for a whole day, and finally stopped at the foot of Nanshan Mountain until the evening.

Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Qingcheng decided to find a post station nearby to stay first.

Anyway, now that we have reached the foot of Nanshan Mountain, we are not in a hurry. Gu Qingcheng thought about going to the mountain tomorrow to search for herbs carefully, to see if there are any herbs that can cure all kinds of poisons.

The two attendants opened two rooms next to each other in the inn, one for the two attendants, and one for Gu Qingcheng.

When Gu Qingcheng walked into the room and opened the window, he saw that the street outside was very lively.

Thinking that it was still early in the day, he turned around and went downstairs to stroll around the street.

When Gu Qingcheng went downstairs, the two followers followed immediately.

Gu Qingcheng was a little displeased, "Go back to your room and rest. I just couldn't sleep and wandered around below, and I will come up in a while."

"My lord, this..." The two people looked at each other, somewhat puzzled: "Missy has ordered us to take good care of your lord's safety."

"I'm just going down for a walk, and I'll be up in a while. If you two follow, I will be more dangerous."

Seeing that Gu Qingcheng's face was about to drop, the two followers couldn't continue to follow.

Gu Qingcheng watched them enter the room, and then happily left the station.

The street is bustling and lively, Gu Qingcheng deliberately memorized the name of the station when he walked out of the station in order to prevent him from finding his way back to the post station.

I have to say that the foot of Nanshan Mountain is really lively.

It was already night, but the streets at this time were as lively and bright as daytime.

Everywhere is crowded with people.

"Young masters and ladies, take a look, take a look, the beautiful colorful lanterns, as long as you guess the riddle correctly, you can take it away!"

Gu Qingcheng was walking on the street when he was suddenly attracted by a shout.

Gu Qingcheng looked at the crowd of people in front of him, but couldn't see what was going on inside.

Fortunately, Gu Qingcheng was a woman with a slender frame, and she easily squeezed through the gap in the crowd after a while.

Gu Qingcheng finally squeezed to the front. After standing still, he looked at a middle-aged man in his forties in front of him. There were many beautiful lanterns hanging beside him.

At the top was a colorful lantern, which immediately attracted Gu Qingcheng.

"Excuse me, sir, how can I get the top colorful lantern?"

Looking at the colorful lantern at the top, Gu Qingcheng was a little moved, so he hurriedly asked the shouting gentleman.

"As long as you can answer three puzzles in a row, this colorful lantern will belong to you."

"I see!"

Gu Qingcheng suddenly understood, it turned out that guessing riddles was enough.

"Then sir, let's see if I can answer."

Gu Qingcheng thought, no matter what the topic is, let's try it first and then talk about it.

Could the ancient riddles be difficult for a modern person?
The gentleman who bought the lamp was also a cheerful person.

That's the first question right now.

"Looks handsome, loves to dance, dances in the flowers, happy and carefree. My son, please name an animal."

"Butterfly!"

After listening to the answer, Gu Qingcheng almost blurted out the answer.

This is too simple.

"Congratulations, young master, for answering the first question correctly, then please listen to the second question. A knife, floating in the water, has eyes, but no eyebrows. It's still a kind of animal."

Gu Qingcheng thought for a few seconds, then showed a confident smile and said, "Fish!"

"Not bad! Young Master has already answered two questions correctly. As long as you answer the third question correctly, Young Master can take this colorful lantern."

When the gentleman said this, Gu Qingcheng seemed to see the beautiful colorful lanterns waving to him.

"Listen to the third question, my lord! Sifang Chengguan, come and be a member. The picture is like a sun, and the sound is like an ape. My lord, please say a word!"

As soon as the gentleman's words fell, Gu Qingcheng's mind slowly began to think.

"My lord, have you figured it out?"

Seeing the worried look of the young master in front of him, the gentleman asked.

After a while, when Gu Qingcheng finally thought of what the word was, Gu Qingcheng spoke quickly.

"I see! It's..."

"This is the round character for reunion."

Before Gu Qingcheng could say the round words, a strange man interrupted him suddenly.

Meow!
Which stinky man loves pretending so much!
Didn't see that she had already guessed the answer, but she still came to intervene!
It's really annoying, hateful!
Gu Qingcheng raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a man who looked very bohemian and wanton was also watching her at this moment.

Gu Qingcheng looked at the strange man with a handsome face that was five points similar to Nangong Mo's, but his style was completely different, and he was a little stunned for a moment.

"Congratulations to this young man who guessed the third question correctly, this colorful lantern is yours now."

That gentleman's words immediately dragged the dazed Gu Qingcheng back to reality.

Seeing that the lantern was about to miss him, Gu Qingcheng's heart seemed to be bleeding.

How could Gu Qingcheng be reconciled, so he strongly resisted the gentleman who sold the lantern: "Sir, I obviously fell in love with this colorful lantern first, and I also thought of the third question, but he said it first! This lantern It should be given to me."

"Young Master, even though that's the case. But he guessed the answer before you. So this lantern belongs to that Young Master. If you really want it, you might as well intercede with that Young Master and ask him to give it to you. .”

After the gentleman finished speaking, he was busy with his own affairs.

The people around saw that the colorful lantern had been taken away by someone who guessed the puzzle correctly, so they dispersed one after another.

Gu Qingcheng looked at the colorful lanterns, the more they looked at them, the more they looked more beautiful, and the more they looked at them, the more they liked them.

Seeing that the man was about to leave with the lantern, Gu Qingcheng quickly chased after him and shouted, "Master, wait!"

The strange man turned around when he heard the voice, and saw that it was the young man who was grabbing the lantern with him just now.

So he stopped and asked, "I don't know what's the matter, young master?"
