The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 684: Teacher's Wife's Secret (Part 1)

At nightfall, Master Lu and Gu Xiaoshun returned to the house with a cart of firewood.

"Why have you been here for so long?" Nan Shiniang walked to the door and helped them carry firewood.

Master Lu hurriedly stopped her and said, "Just let it go, I'll do it!"

"It's just a few bundles of firewood." Master Nan didn't care.

"Then I can't let you move, right, Xiaoshun?" Master Lu knew that he couldn't hold back Mrs. Nan, so he asked Gu Xiaoshun to be a rescuer.

"That's right, Mrs. Nan." Gu Xiaoshun jumped off the carriage and took the firewood from Mrs. Nan.

Master Nan glared at Master Lu.

Gu Xiaoshun carried the firewood, caught a glimpse of the red-tasseled gun and the small pannier in the main room, and his eyes lit up: "Eh? Is my sister back?"

Nan Shiniang smiled and said: "I'm back, I'm playing chess with Mr. Meng in the backyard."

Everyone in the family knew Mr. Meng's surname, but no one connected him with the Chess Master of the Six Kingdoms. After all, a figure like the Chess Master of the Six Kingdoms was even regarded as a guest of honor in the National Teacher Hall, so how could he be reduced to the situation of relying on others? ?

Gu Xiaoshun was so excited that he wished he could immediately stick two chicken feathers in his head, he rushed to the backyard with a bunch of firewood in his arms: "Sister!"

Gu Jiao had already washed up and changed into dry clothes, her hair was half dry and half wet.

Hearing Gu Xiaoshun's voice, she raised her hand and brushed her disobedient hair behind her ears, then turned to look at Gu Xiaoshun: "Xiaoshun."

Gu Xiaoshun put down the firewood, came to her and looked her up and down: "Sister, why have you been out for so long? We are so worried about you!"

Gu Jiao bent the corners of her lips: "I've been delayed by something, the academy has asked for so many days off, nothing happened to you, right?"

Gu Xiaoshun shook his head: "Oh, it's okay, I said you were sick, they wanted to see you, but I stopped them."

"They?" Gu Jiao was confused.

"Master Wu, Mu Qingchen, Mu Chuan..." Gu Xiaoshun said more than twenty names in one breath, because he only knew these people, and there were many others he couldn't name.

Gu Jiao: "No."

Is she so popular?

"Okay, baby, wait a moment, your sister and I will finish this game of chess." Mr. Meng couldn't wait, he had the account book in his hand, and he had played with Gu Yan for more than 20 years The game is over, and the little baby has to accompany him all the way back.

Just as there was still firewood left, Gu Xiaoshun scratched his head and said, "Sister, I'll come find you later."

Gu Jiao: "Okay.

"

...

Gu Jiao came back safely, all the stones in the family's heart fell to the ground, and Mrs. Nan decided to cook something delicious tomorrow morning.

But the star anise and fennel were used up, Nan Shiniang decided to go to the shop to buy some back.

There is a shop selling spices in the alley, just a few steps away.

But today their house is closed, and Mrs. Nan has to go to the street to buy.

Master Lu was repairing the carriage at home. Halfway through the repair, he frowned: "Why hasn't Nan Xiang come back? Xiao Shun, come and fix it, I'll go and have a look."

"Okay!" Gu Xiaoshun took the tools from Master Lu, and Master Lu walked out quickly.

At this time, Nan Shiniang was indeed in a little trouble. She was blocked in another alley and injured, and her veil was covered with blood.

She covered her painful chest, raised her hand to wipe off the blood from the corner of her mouth, and shot three Tanghua needles in a whoosh.

The man smiled coldly, and caught her hidden weapon with his hand raised.

Master Nan's expression changed.

The man looked at the Tanghua Needle in his hand, sneered, and said: "It's actually poisoned, you are much more ruthless than before, but it's a pity, you are no match for me now!"

At the end, he grinned, and with a flick of his fingers, he shot the three Tanghua needles towards Mrs. Nan.

Master Nan's pupils shook!

The speed is too fast!

There is no way to avoid it!

All of a sudden, a small figure dashed over behind Nan Seniang, grabbing Nan Seniang and pulling her aside.

Three Tanghua needles were nailed to the ground clang clangingly!

And almost at the same moment, Gu Jiao pointed her spear at the ground, jumped up with her strength, and stabbed the opponent's heart with a spear!

The opponent grabbed the body of the Hongying Spear with his backhand, but unexpectedly it was a false move, the muzzle of the gun suddenly turned around and swept across his lower body!

The other party's eyes trembled, and with a point of toe, he soared into the air and flew to the roof.

After he stabilized his figure, he looked at the boy with dancing black hair in the alley.

Holding the red-tasseled gun, the young man stared up at himself coldly, his eyes were cold and unruly.

"The marksmanship just now..." He frowned, murmured in a low voice, and then he smiled lightly, "Nan Xiang, is this the master you invited? I have to say, this kid is a bit beyond my expectation , but even so, he is not my opponent! Look at the trick!"

"Brother!"

Mrs. Nan hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out her arms, and blocked Gu Jiao behind her, "Don't hurt her!"

brother?

Gu Jiao looked at the man on the roof again, the sky was too dark, his figure was shrouded in the night, Gu Jiao couldn't see his complexion clearly, but the contours of his facial features were still vaguely discernible.

This man has a pair of very dark eyes.

Originally, his looks were considered good, but with these eyes, he felt a bit sinister for no reason.

"Nan Shiniang, back off." Gu Jiao pushed down Nan Shiniang's arm, stepped forward fearlessly, and pointed the spear at him, "Come down and fight me."

The other party was slightly taken aback, obviously he didn't expect the boy to be so fearless as a newborn calf, but soon, he laughed hahahaha again.

"Junior Sister, I haven't seen such an interesting person for a long time. Since he calls you Mistress, he can barely count as my half-Senior Nephew. Come on, I just heard that you came to Shengdu, so I came here It was just to say hello to you, and I didn't want to do anything to you. It was you who were too nervous and made a move to me first."

Master Nan gritted her teeth: "Shameless!"

"Okay, the greetings are over, I should go too, goodbye little junior sister!"

After all, he smiled coldly, performed lightness kung fu and disappeared into the night.

Gu Jiao turned around and stretched out her hand to support her forearm: "Miss Nan, you are injured."

Master Nan waved her hand: "A little injury, it will be fine after a few days of treatment, why are you here?"

Gu Jiao said: "You never came back, so we came out to look for you, Master Lu also went to look for you, probably went in another direction."

Master Nan panted slightly: "Let's go, let's go back."

Gu Jiao held the red-tasseled gun in one hand, and supported Master Nan in the other to walk back.

The two walked out of the alley, Nan Shiniang smiled bitterly: "I didn't tell you about my affairs in detail before, can you blame me?"

Gu Jiao shook her head: "I didn't tell Mrs. Nan about me either."

Nan Shiniang smiled, and she has more secrets than anyone else: "The person just now is called Qi Xuan, the direct disciple of the head of the Tang Sect. The Tang Sect is a power in the world outside the Six Kingdoms, and I used to be too. People from the Tang Sect, later on, because I was dissatisfied with the marriage that the Tang Sect arranged for me, I abandoned my martial arts and left the Tang Sect. If my martial arts were still there, Qi Xuan would not be able to hurt me at all today."

Gu Jiao suddenly realized: "So that's the case, no wonder Master's poison and hidden weapons are very powerful."

Nan Shiniang shook her head slightly again: "Actually, I am the worst at these two, otherwise, I would not abolish my martial arts, but I would abolish my hands. To be honest, Qi Xuan is far ahead of me in hidden weapons and poisons."

Gu Jiao asked suspiciously: "Then Mrs...."

Nan Shiniang said: "I am relatively good at martial arts. Back then, the Tang Sect had a forbidden technique, which was originally not allowed to be practiced by our own disciples, but then the head of the sect decided to let our direct disciples try it. In the end, I was the only one. Learned. Perhaps because of this, I was forced to marry the head's son..."

Speaking of this, she paused, and said with a smile, "These are all things in the past, martial arts are gone, but it's not bad to be able to live a carefree life."

"Then why did he want to kill you just now?" Gu Jiao couldn't believe the bullshit that he just came here to say hello, she felt so murderous.

Nan Shiniang said: "He wanted to force me to learn the method of forbidden art, alas, where do I know what method? I will learn it after learning, who knows why they are so stupid?"

Gu Jiao: "..."

Thinking of something, Gu Jiao said: "He just said that he heard that Mrs. Nan came to Shengdu."

Nan Shiniang sighed: "Do you still remember the steward surnamed Liao of the National Teacher Hall? The one we asked him to take you into the National Teacher Hall through the back door?"

Gu Jiao had a little impression: "The one kicked out by the horse king?"

Nan Shiniang said: "That's him. He used to be an outer disciple of the Tang Sect, and he knew several of us. I think he should be the one who leaked my whereabouts to Qi Xuan. But I really didn't expect Qi Xuan to come Sheng Du, this is not in line with the rules of the Tang Sect, since the last head of the Tang Sect, they have not entered the world easily."

Suddenly, Master Nan thought of a possibility.
