Ruan's wife is pregnant

Chapter 67

The small building of the shadow play is private property. I heard that the person who performed the shadow play was also a courtier, but later, for some reason, he resigned from office and thanked the court. Instead, he came here to perform shadow plays for children.

This small building was built when he was a courtier. The emperor never mentioned this person again, and this person never talked about state affairs. He only had porridge and light tea every day.

"Uncle Xun!" Gu Jinxi shouted as soon as he entered.

There were five or six children running around, chasing a boy in front of him who looked twelve or thirteen years old. The man called Uncle Xun was already a gray-haired old man, and he was looking at the group of children with a smile. When Gu Jinxi came, the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

The old man snorted, and the white beard on his face moved accordingly. The old man turned around and crossed his arms, "Why are you here, you bastard?"

bastard?
Ruan Cailing looked at the old man in surprise, and then came back to see Gu Jinxi.

But Gu Jinxi acted as if he didn't care about the old man's disrespect, and he still walked over with a smile on his face, "Uncle Xun, is he angry? Xiao Xi has been busy recently, so I don't have time to come to see you! Didn't he come here as soon as he has time?" !"

Gu Jinxi stood beside the old man, helped the old man to turn around, the old man looked cute when he was sullen, at least Ruan Cailing felt that the old man with the white beard had the air of an old urchin, the old man was turned around with Gu Jinxi's support. Seeing Ruan Cailing who came in next to Gu Jinxi, his eyes lit up.

"Is this the girl you brought?" the old man asked Gu Jinxi.

He pointed at Ruan Cailing, looked him up and down, Ruan Cailing was stunned for a moment, then bowed his knees and saluted, "Ling'er has seen..."

"You can call me Uncle Xun just like me." Gu Jinxi said.

Ruan Cailing let out an oh, and shouted with a smile, "Ling'er

I met Uncle Xun! "

"Hey! Good good! Come on, girl, look at Uncle Xun!" The old man was no longer angry, but instead showed his smile when he was looking at the group of children below and stretched out his hand to Ruan Cailing. The wrist continued to look.

It took a long time before he nodded, and solemnly said to Gu Jinxi, "Okay! I don't know martial arts! She looks like a gentle and gentle girl! What's your name, girl!"

"Uh, my name is Ruan Cailing."

The old man frowned all of a sudden, Ruan Cailing felt that the old man's face changed very quickly, and his expressions were also varied.The old man looked back at Gu Jinxi, who nodded towards the old man.

"Who are you, Ruan Qi?"

Ruan Cailing was even more inexplicable. It had been a long time since no one dared to call Daddy by his name in front of him, but judging by the appearance of the old man, he should be older than Daddy.

"It's my father! Dingguo Duke Ruan Qi is my father, Ruan Su's is my mother, and my brother is Dingguo Duke's son Ruan Xuchen."

"Sure enough!" The old man suddenly stared, "I knew you were the daughter of that kid Ruan Qi! Look at what you look like! These eyes are almost carved out of the same mold as Ruan Qi!"

Ruan Cailing was so helpless to be thrown away by Uncle Xun again!Why did Uncle Xun lose his temper all of a sudden!It's cloudy!
Gu Jinxi got down from the stage, went to Ruan Cailing, took Ruan Cailing's hand, and led her to the old man, then suddenly knelt down on one knee, Ruan Cailing also knelt belatedly when she saw Gu Jinxi kneeling.

Qing Rui, Mu Bai and the others behind them did not dare to stand still.

In this room, apart from the old man, a group of children are still standing.

"Uncle Xun, Xiaoxi brought Ruan Ruan to see you today, can you really not let go of the grievances from many years ago? If you held grudges, you wouldn't have opened a shadow puppet theater in Dongxiang Street all these years! Look, that Ruan Ruan and I didn't exist at that time, but at this moment, both of us can come to see you! Uncle Xun, my father and Duke Ding both need you!"

Although Ruan Cailing was puzzled, she didn't open her mouth and just looked up.If she read it right, she really saw the tears in the eyes of the old man. The old man bent his waist, put his hands behind his back, raised his head and sighed, "Oh, when is the time for retribution? All!"

He wiped his tears with his sleeve, and then looked at Ruan Cailing and Gu Jinxi with a much softer gaze, "Get up, a prince and a young lady, what does it look like to kneel in front of an old man like me!"

After speaking, he turned around and entered a small room on the stage. Gu Jinxi pulled Ruan Cailing up and found a seat to sit.

"Who is this?"

It was inconvenient for her to ask the old man was still here just now, but now Gu Jinxi is finally alone.

Gu Jinxi glanced at Ruan Cailing, took the teacup from Qing Rui's hand, "Have you heard about Zhu Yuanxun from Ruan Xuchen or Master Ruan?"

Zhu Yuanxun?
Ruan Cailing has no memory of past and present lives.

She shook her head.

Gu Jinxi took a sip of tea and said softly, "It's no wonder you don't know, Zhu Yuanxun is the founder of the dynasty. I was not born at that time, let alone you."

"...Here, just this old man?" Ruan Cailing glanced at the small room that Uncle Xun entered just now.

Gu Jinxi nodded.

Zhu Yuanxun and the current Duke Xuan Ding are the three elders of the first dynasty. These three are also good brothers, but now one is a prince and the other is Duke Ding. He is the only one who lives in a quiet place in the capital, far away from the court. .

Gu Jinxi knew the reason, but it was not convenient for Ruan Cailing to say too much, just let her know the relationship between Ruan Qi and Uncle Xun.

"But why did dad never mention this person?"

"Some things are said after leaving the court, and the disaster comes from the mouth! Master Ruan is also for your safety."

Then Ruan Cailing didn't understand even more. Since her father and elder brother didn't tell her for their own safety, why did Gu Jinxi bring herself to find this person directly?
What do you mean by what you just said?
King Xuan and Dad both need him?

"The courtiers recommended the Ninth Prince, and the emperor is also in a state of distress. Although the method you told me can be resolved, it will take time to prove it. At present, we need a reassurance. We must let the people in the court know that even if the emperor is old, the country will not be afraid. There will be no turmoil, and someone needs to support my father and Mr. Ruan's roots!"

This person, only Zhu Yuanxun is the most suitable.

If those things hadn't happened back then, he would bid farewell to the court angrily, and the current position of prime minister would be his!In the eyes of Zhu Yuanxun, Prime Minister Lin Yicheng is not even a straw!

That being the case, why does Uncle Xun live here?Why don't you leave the capital?

"Where do you think all the news about your family comes from? How did Ruan Xuchen know that someone was following him to kill him? If it wasn't for Uncle Xun, your elder brother would have died countless times!"

Ruan Cailing suddenly understood what Gu Jinxi meant.

"But Uncle Xun lives here alone, won't he be very ostentatious? He is still safe and sound. Could it be that Uncle Xun is a master?"

"Uncle Xun doesn't know martial arts." Gu Jinxi said, "But, look."

He pointed to every corner of this small building, "Look at those hidden slots, there are hundreds of traps in this small building, let alone a top killer, even if I broke into here suddenly, I couldn't get out of my body!"

Ruan Cailing took a closer look, and found some agencies, but Ruan Cailing counted only a dozen places, and Gu Jinxi said there were hundreds of them, where are they all?

Before Uncle Xun came out again, Ruan Cailing focused on finding the mechanism in the small building.

"Girl, Uncle Xun saw you for the first time, and I have nothing to give you, just this little thing, you can keep it." Uncle Xun sat opposite the two of them, the round table was full of shells of melon seeds and peanuts, He brushed away a clean place with his sleeve, and a small rectangular box was placed on the table.

Ruan Cailing pointed at herself in surprise, "For me?"

Uncle Xun nodded, "Yes! Open it and have a look!"

Ruan Cailing subconsciously glanced at Gu Jinxi, who nodded to indicate that she could take it, Ruan Cailing thanked him and reached out to find the switch of the box, while Uncle Xun could see Ruan Cailing's expression asking Gu Jinxi.

Ruan Qi's daughter and Gu Yu's son!

Talented man and beautiful woman are from the same family, which should be regarded as a good match, but the emperor and his princes are so suspicious, will they be able to get together as they wish?

Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, no wonder Ruan Qi and Gu Yu are willing to let their children come to them.

After Ruan Cailing opened the box, she saw that inside was a delicate silver wristband, a little as long as a finger.Ruan Cailing tried it on and it just fit on her wrist. The silver wristband has carved lotus flowers, which is very delicate.

But she doesn't go out to fight, so why give her wristbands?
"Thank you, Uncle Xun, it looks great, but... I don't know martial arts, and I have never worn a wristband." Ruan Cailing looked at the lotus flower on the wristband and said to Uncle Xun.

"I'm giving you this precisely because you don't know martial arts. This kind of thing won't work for Xiao Xi and Chen'er."

Dust?

Only people who are close to him would call him brother like that. Could it be that elder brother also often visits Uncle Xun?
"Uncle Xun, have you met my elder brother?" Ruan Cailing asked.

Uncle Xun raised his eyebrows, and reached out to help Ruan Cailing adjust the position of the wrist guard, "No! I haven't seen any of your children! I even went to you when you were born. Who do you think designed your Sihua Building? ?”

The Sihua Building was actually designed by Uncle Xun?
From the very beginning, Ruan Cailing only knew that the Sihua Building was designed and built by an expert who gave her father blueprints before she was born.Unexpectedly, the expert in the mouth of parents and elder brothers is Uncle Xun!

"Uncle Xun is proficient in the construction of weapons and organs, don't tell me that you have lived in Sihua Building for 14 years, and you don't know that there are organs in your pavilion?" Gu Jinxi asked.

Ruan Cailing had a bitter face, she really didn't know!

Where is the agency?
Besides, she is not like her big brother, there are dangers everywhere, she has always been smooth sailing before she was reborn!Even encountering the assassin hiding in the room was only after being reborn!

Think about it this way.

No wonder the assassin would catch her when she returned to the room, and the way she looked at her was more defensive.
