Conspiracy

Chapter 121 A Fallen Leaf Knows the Years Will Come Twilight
At noon, the red sun was scorching, and gold and gravel flowed.

There are still people coming and going on Zhenghua Street, full of people.Most of the streets and alleys are government houses, and the most conspicuous one is in the center.

Facing south, the house occupies a very large area, and the overall color is gray and white, showing a calm and elegant style.The roof tiles are arranged as densely as fish scales, and a branch of viburnum protrudes from the begonia window on the stone courtyard wall, which is clean and charming.

There are two stone lions squatting in front of the main entrance, guarded by several soldiers, and the three characters of "Youxiangfu" are engraved on the plaque.The main entrance is open, and after five stone steps, a blue brick road extends inward.The horoscope screen wall is magnificent, and the characters depicted on the wall should be the ancestors of the Gu family.

The mansion is carved with jade railings and winding corridors.After entering the curved arch, it is the outer courtyard, which is the residence of the men in the mansion.Five steps, one courtyard, ten steps, one pavilion.After passing the Chaoshou corridor on the west side, you can see the Hanging Flower Gate, and behind it is the inner courtyard where women live.

The two of them didn't pay any respects, but when the guard heard about Yu Ziye's identity, he immediately got the guard's attention.

When someone went in to report, Yu Ziye asked sideways, "A Ning, don't you have a good personal relationship with the prince's elder brother? How come you don't know Mr. Gu's family?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I only met the prince a few times, and it was limited to rituals, and there was no overstepping. How can we talk about deep friendship? As for the Dongli Lord you are talking about, I have never met before."

"Really?"

"Why are you lying to me?" Su Zhen looked around and whispered, "I'll go in as your bodyguard or bookboy later."

"Why? What kind of moth are you trying to fix?"

"Ahem, I'm afraid that if I talk too much, I will lose my image and destroy my image."

"Huh? Did I hear you right? Do you think you still have face? Who knows that the eldest son of the Su family is extremely shameless. Aww!"

Yu Ziye resisted the cry of pain, raised his hand to push Su Zhen away from his shoe, and jumped on the spot to relieve the pain.

Su Zhen said with a half-smile, "Thank you for your praise."

At this time, the steward of Youxiang's Mansion came out, bowed and bowed, "This old servant has seen the son."

Yu Ziye took a deep breath, resisted the pain in his feet and said, "Excuse me."

Steward Song turned his gaze to Su Zhen, "My lord, who is this?"

"He is my son's book boy." Yu Ziye said through gritted teeth.

Steward Song looked at Su Zhen's clothes with blazing eyes, knowing that her identity must be difficult, but he didn't question her further.

"The two please come inside first, the old slave has already sent someone to inform the second young master."

"There is a housekeeper."

"Your Majesty is too polite."

There are many viburnum trees planted in Youxiang's mansion, and it is said that this is the flower of Youxiang's wife's hometown.It was planted by Gu Hongrong when he married her, and it has been more than twenty years now.

A few people were walking on the gravel path, and the fragrance wafted into the nostrils. Su Zhen stretched out her hand, and two petals of Qionghua, which were as white as jade, fell into the palm of her hand.

A guard stepped forward and whispered a few words in Butler Song's ear. The latter's face changed slightly, and he immediately put on a polite and courteous smile, and said back.

"Master, I'm really sorry. There is a visitor from the second son's courtyard today, so it's inconvenient to meet. I'm really sorry, please forgive me."

"Guest? Could he be deliberately avoiding us?"

Steward Song stroked his beard and said with a smile, "My son, what are you talking about? It is said that the second son has not seen his old friend for many years. Today is really helpless."

"Housekeeper, please pass it on again. My family's eldest son has something important to ask Mr. Gu."

Gu Yunshu is now not only a bachelor of government studies, but also holds an important position in the Imperial Academy. I heard that he is leading people to compile and revise history books.

"Song Butler."

At this time, another man dressed as a book boy came over, saluted and apologized, "Master, my son, please move to Zhiqiu Garden, it is inconvenient for him to come out to greet him."

"No problem."

"Second Young Master's distinguished guest has left?"

"Yes, the young master asked the younger one to take the elder son there."

"Well, you go, take care of it carefully, don't be negligent."

"Yes, I obey." An Yu leaned over and raised his hand, "Master, please."

When Yu Ziye doesn't make jokes with Su Zhen, his behavior is impeccable, showing the attitude of a noble son.

Su Zhen bowed her head, and walked half a step behind Yu Ziye, following each step, trying her best to play the role of 'book boy'.

Zhiqiu Garden.

Although Gu Yunshu is the concubine's son of the right minister, he is highly regarded by him, and his food and clothing are no different from that of his concubine's son, so he is often hated by others.

Zhiqiu Garden is different from other courtyards in luxury, simple and rustic.The sycamore tree with a tall and straight crown has not yet bloomed, and its branches and leaves are lush and lush, like a giant green velvet umbrella, which is difficult to penetrate even by sunlight.

One leaf knows autumn, and one leaf falls and one knows the end of the year.

The red phoenix nestled on Yu Ziye's shoulder all the time, seeing the sycamore tree in the distance, called out "Jiujiu" twice, stretched its wings and flew towards it quickly.

After being admitted to the hospital, they found that there was no one in the hospital.

An Yu explained, "Young master likes to be clean and doesn't want to be disturbed by others, so the servants will leave after cleaning up, and don't stay longer."

"I see."

Gu Yunshu heard the sound outside, immediately walked out of the room, and tore off the rolled up sleeves.

"Your official Gu Yunshu, I have met Yu Shizi." He put his fingers together and leaned over in a bow.

Gu Yunshu has a refined temperament, dressed in azure-colored robes, and has a bookish air all over his body.The facial features are handsome, the temperament is gentle, the eyes are as blue as transparent ice jade, and the light in the eyes is as gentle as the spring water in the south of the Yangtze River.There is a gentle smile on the corner of the lips, like a ray of love entering the heart, the meaning is lingering, and the night is hard to sleep.

Su Zhen looked at him, and suddenly realized, no wonder this person is appreciated by the prince and regarded as a confidant.

That man, who is mediocre on the surface, but who is secretly thinking about his future, he can not only endure, but also know how to recruit talented people for his own use.When the time is right in the future, it will become his powerful support.

That man seemed ambitious, but in fact, he was gentle down to the bone.

There are very few people in this world who understand him, and Gu Yunshu is probably one of them.

"Master Gu, no courtesy."

Gu Yunshu looked at Su Zhen, "Who is this?"

"The villain is Shizi's book boy, named Nanshan."

"Nanshan?" Gu Yunshu couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile, "Please come inside."

Yu Ziye raised his eyebrows at her, implying that her lying was too clumsy, but the latter shrugged and didn't take it seriously.

If she doesn't say anything, what can others do to her?Even if it's embarrassing, it's not hers.

Yu Ziye noticed the water stains on Gu Yunshu's sleeves, "Master Gu, what are you?"

"Xiaguan has been busy with official duties recently, so I took the time to scrub the bookshelf."

"I didn't expect Master Gu to be so diligent."

"The prince is honored, but the ancient books collected by the lower officials are all fragments and are easily damaged. If someone else takes care of them, I can't worry about it."

"I have long heard that Mr. Gu reads a lot of books and is full of economics. He knows astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom. Now I just know that the rumor is not as good as seeing it."

"The son of the world is absurdly praised, and I am ashamed to be an official."

Su Zhen listened to Yu Ziye praising him, and laughed in her heart.

This little Yezi met Tangyu not long ago, but he has learned his glib tongue to ten percent.
