Qingchuan History

Chapter 161
This is ridiculous.You have food there, isn't there any in Turning the Lantern Hall?He is Qi Jun, it is not easy to want to eat?
But Gu Xinglang was overwhelmed by these words.With an unnatural expression, he coughed dryly and said:

"what?"

Earlier he mentioned the matter of medicinal diet, Ruan Xueyin thought he had an opinion on it, and explained: "It's not medicinal diet. It's something else."

Gu Xinglang was still unnatural, his expression became more unpredictable, and he didn't answer for a while.Ruan Xueyin was a little embarrassed, and realized that it was really inappropriate for her to invite her like this, so she spoke again:
"Or—"

"Let's go then."

The rain hasn't abated.

A group of people walked slowly with umbrellas, and it was already dark when they reached the gate of Zhexue Temple.

Gu Xinglang was eating at a round table in the side hall of the main hall, and Ruan Xueyin was sitting opposite him.

He ate quite quickly, and he looked really hungry, but even so, the gesture of serving the bowl was still impeccable——

Calm and composed, like smearing ink like falling chess, eating is such a smoky thing, but he made it so elegant and dusty.

That face is also pretty.When they met on weekdays, they were either discussing matters or discussing matters. Except for the first time they met at Yuehua Terrace, she hardly looked at his face seriously.At this moment, there was no emotion on that face, he just buried his head in chewing and swallowing seriously, very youthful and beautiful.

very nice.

Ruan Xueyin's iconic chin resting when she was concentrating on what she was looking at or thinking about appeared again.Yunxi often sees it, but Gu Xinglang has never seen it once.He ate the whole bowl of rice in one go, and finally felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, he saw her sitting opposite her with her elbows supported, her right cheek resting on her right hand, staring at him without any concealment.

He was taken aback and stared at her, but the other party didn't intend to look back.

The first to lose was Gu Xinglang.

"You stare like this, I can't eat."

Ruan Xueyin just woke up, withdrew her elbow, and said puzzledly: "You eat yours." She glanced at the empty bowl in his hand again, "Why can't I eat, isn't it all finished?"

I want to eat another bowl.

It's embarrassing.He didn't say.

"I saw you in Qingyan Pavilion before, and thought you couldn't eat." She glanced down at the pile of half-empty plates on the table, admiring: "Has your appetite always been this good?"

A sentence popped up in Gu Xinglang's mind, and he quickly crossed it out.

"Didn't you have dinner with me?"

It was true, but at that time she was also enjoying herself, so she didn't pay attention.

"Are you feeling better now?"

"what?"

"You didn't look good before."

Gu Xinglang put down the bowls and chopsticks, and raised his voice to call for someone to come in and clean up.

"Do you have to know tonight?"

Ruan Xueyin was stunned, and understood what he meant: "Not necessarily. I'm just asking if you feel better right now."

"Okay, you can ask, and if it's not good, don't ask?"

"I don't have to ask if it's good or not. If you don't want to say it, I won't ask."

"Then what do you care about me?"

"I--"

She couldn't answer, but Gu Xinglang came to his senses.

He was in a complicated mood, looked at her for a while and said, "Do you still want to go back to Pengxi Mountain?"

"what?"

"Didn't you say at that time that after completing the teacher's order, you would return to Pengxi Mountain?"

Ruan Xueyin didn't know how the topic was changed, so she thought about it and answered, "Of course I have to go back. If I continue to stay here, everyone is worried and meaningless."

"Then whether I'm good or bad has nothing to do with you. You can ask whatever you want. If you don't have anything to say, I'm leaving."

After finishing speaking, he got up and walked out. He had already walked several steps, and when he turned around, he saw that she was still staying where she was, and was finally a little annoyed:
"Really don't ask?"

Ruan Xueyin was puzzled: "Do you want me to ask or not? Why is it so troublesome?"

Gu Xinglang felt that he had never been so ashamed in 20 years, so he strode outside without any hesitation.

It's not that Ruan Xueyin has never seen him angry.Only this time, she felt quite guilty.The mood she felt when she saw him sitting alone in the Qingyan Pavilion from afar before was overwhelmed again. She couldn't explain why, but subconsciously felt that he couldn't let him go away in such a rage.

So at a speed that she didn't even realize, she hurried to the main hall, and saw that white figure had already arrived at the entrance of the hall.

"Have."

Gu Xinglang was walking with wind, when he suddenly heard the voice behind him, he frowned slightly, he hesitated for a moment and turned around again, only to see her standing two feet away, somewhat at a loss.

"I have a question. Gotta ask. You, can you stay a little longer?"

The starlight in Gu Xinglang's eyes fluctuated, as if he was thinking, but also seemed to be playing: "Where are you going?"

Ruan Xueyin was stunned: "Can't it work here?"

"No."

"Where is that going?"

"Go to the bedroom."

Ruan Xueyin didn't understand those jokes until now, and she was almost sure that he was playing tricks on herself, so she quickly replied:

"it is good."

It was Gu Xinglang's turn to stay.He watched helplessly as the other party turned around and walked towards the bedroom, but he didn't move for a while.

"Not going again?"

"Who said no?"

"Then let's go. Whoever doesn't go is a puppy."

Gu Xinglang is sure that she is not very good at saying witty words or common sayings, otherwise conventional metaphors such as heart and soul would not impress her so deeply.So at this moment, this sentence about the puppy came out of the blue, and I was caught off guard——

He couldn't think of a cuter scene than this one.

The smile was about to spread across his face in a completely uncontrollable manner, and barely stabilized, he followed, and said in a deep voice:

"childish."

The two entered the dormitory one after the other, and Ruan Xueyin preemptively sat down at the table, setting the scene for the next conversation.Gu Xinglang was amused in his heart, but he didn't show the slightest bit on his face. He looked around, not very satisfied:

"It seems that the things in the fourth warehouse of Guangchu can't catch your eyes. How is this different from two months ago?"

"Sending those things in has caused uneasiness in the palace, how can I still put them out."

"This is your bedroom, how many people can see it?"

"I can see."

Gu Xinglang was taken aback for a moment, and then fell silent.

Ruan Xueyin was too lazy to entangle these questions, and went straight to the point: "How did you find out those six people? They have been hiding in Xiling and haven't come out?"

Gu Xinglang also sat down, took an empty cup and started to spin it.

"How do you think the people from the Wei and Ying kingdoms in Qi Palace have been arrested one by one in these years. Xiling is like Qi Gong, an iron bucket that never comes out. , It’s even more difficult to reach the sky. Didn’t I say, unless those six people can fly into the sky and escape from the ground.” He poured the tea himself, drank it slowly, and continued:

"They can't get out, they can only sneak into the crowd, and wait for the opportunity to escape on the day when the large army returns to Jidu. This is also the reason why the two of the Shangguan family chose Xiling instead of Qigong. To retreat, I can only take advantage of this opportunity. Auntie has been dormant in Qi Gong for several years, so she naturally understands this truth. That's why I said, she didn't do anything wrong."

"She knows what method you use to protect places like Qigong and Xiling from leaking?"

"I shouldn't know. But she knows the result. I have arrested people one after another over the years, and she can always get news from her father."

Ruan Xueyin was very curious: "What's the solution for the iron bucket that can only go in and out?"
