Mu Qing walked out of the small courtyard. Gu Tong had been waiting at the entrance of the courtyard. When he saw him, he quickly asked: "City Lord, has the priest's condition improved?"
Mu Qing hummed. After all, Gu Tong was in the middle stage of mortal transformation and decided to stay in Suzaku City. In order to make the best use of people, Mu Qing had arranged for him to guard Yue Yongjiang's spiritual veins. Seeing that he still stayed Here, asked: "You don't know the place?"
"No." Gu Tong said quickly. Mu Qing gave him a very generous treatment. Although he had just arrived in Suzaku City and was about to leave, he could directly use the spiritual stones mined by Yueyongjiang to practice. Mu Qing showed off here and ran away long ago, "I was staying in Wangxue City and accidentally discovered something."
Gu Tong did not show off, and immediately said: "The emperor seems to intend to move the Gu family to the imperial dynasty."
Mu Qing glanced at Gu Tong and frowned slightly.
Gu Tong thought Mu Qing didn't believe it, so he quickly said: "City Lord, this is probably true. When I was looking at Xuecheng City, I caught a casual cultivator working for the Gu family. He thought I was still in the Gu family and was tricked by me. The news came out."
Mu Qing hummed, thinking that it might be a wrong decision to let Gu Ci go, and said, "It seems that the emperor is still unwilling to accept the current situation where both parties are in peace."
On the way here, Gu Tong already knew what happened in Zhuque City during this period. He looked at the young man in front of him and admired him from the bottom of his heart. He smiled and said, "Although the city lord doesn't care about the dirty things the emperor did, the emperor is obviously afraid of it." The city lord, especially since he has repeatedly harmed you without success, is even more afraid that one day you will suddenly come to settle a score with him. In fact, if the city lord wants to..."
Mu Qing stretched out his hand to stop Gu Tong from continuing. Managing a city is enough to make people exhausted. He had no intention of becoming a worldly human emperor. Seeing Gu Tong's expression of waiting for orders, he said, "Go to Qingchuan Pass." Later, help me pay attention to this matter, especially Gu Ci who is staying by the emperor's side."
Mu Qing condensed a blood-red talisman in front of Gu Tong, engraved it on a jade plaque, and handed it to Gu Tong, "When I let Gu Ci go, I left a mark on his heart. It seems that he doesn’t care about my warning. If he makes any changes, or if someone from the Gu family dares to enter Youyan Province, you should know what to do."
Gu Tong's eyes lit up. Ever since he was treated like a human being and a ghost in Beihuang, he had no good feelings for those who were still in the Gu family. Mu Qing arranged for him to deal with those who came to the dynasty from the Gu family. Man, it just hit his heart.
"Hey, don't worry, City Lord, I will make it impossible for those people to leave once they come."
Seeing Gu Tong's impatient look, Mu Qing suddenly thought of Gu Yinghe in the small courtyard behind him. He pondered for a moment and said, "You can discuss this matter with Miss Gu. Not all people in the Gu family are enemies."
Gu Tong was about to nod when he glanced behind Mu Qing. The smile on his face suddenly froze, and he subconsciously took a half step back, "Priest."
Mu Qing didn't expect Gu Yinghe to follow him out. He turned sideways and looked behind him, "Is there anything else?"
Gu Yinghe was standing a few steps away, holding a piece of paper in her hand. The ink on it was still fresh and seemed to have just been written on it. She glanced at Gu Tong expressionlessly before handing the paper to Mu Qing, "This is It’s a list, you can give it to Bai Qingyi.”
"Give it to Qingyi?" Mu Qing took a look at the list and found that the names written on it were all names. He was moved and looked up at Gu Yinghe, "Are these the people who ruined Qingyi's family?"
"Yeah." Gu Yinghe lowered her eyes slightly. In fact, she listened to the conversation between Mu Qing and Gu Tong in the room. She was deeply touched by some of Mu Qing's words, and her emotions were a bit complicated. "Many people have died. The rest of the people who are still alive are on top, including a few people from the Gu family."
Mu Qing glanced at Gu Yinghe with some surprise, then carefully read the list in his hand, and found that it was indeed as Gu Yinghe said, there were several people from the Gu family on the list, he shook his head and smiled: "Qingyi maybe I don’t want to see this list.”
Gu Yinghe glanced at Mu Qing, "Miss Bai is willing to leave Juye City, which means she intends to give up the past and start a new life. This is a good thing. But the person who hurt her is still there, so you should be willing to do something .”
Mu Qing solemnly put away the list and nodded to Gu Yinghe: "Thank you."
Gu Ying
He said, "Just think of it as my apology for accidentally running into that yard."
Mu Qing's movements froze slightly. After being reminded by Gu Yinghe, he felt bad and stopped staying. "Ah, I have something to do over there, so let's go first."
After Mu Qing left, he searched around the alchemy shop connected to the small courtyard, but could not find the figure of Zhang Shaoyao. The bad premonition in his heart became more and more real, and he hurriedly ran in a certain direction. .
Nijiuzi Lane is a lively area on the east side of Danfang.
A small courtyard with a unique style once again welcomed a group of people with special status.
The craftsmen who had just started busy again had to stop their work again, but compared to the last time they complained for no reason, this time the craftsmen had no complaints.
Some of them recognized the identity of the person coming and started talking: "That person seems to be Mrs. Wang. I met her before when I was building a house on Qingyun Street."
"That man seems to be the owner of Ten Thousand Flowers Valley."
"..."
Wang Yeqing listened to the discussion of these craftsmen and looked sideways at the people beside him, "I said there is a shortage of craftsmen in the inner city, why do you still ask me for them? They are all arranged here."
Chen Zhuo, who had just rushed back from Dariling, didn't care how embarrassed he looked at this time. He wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeves and looked around. When he found that Mu Qing was not around, he suddenly became nervous and asked. Said: "Mrs. Wang, where is the City Lord? And Lord Huaigu, what are you doing here? This is a construction site, not Alchemy Square or Jiuyou Tower."
"Huh? This place is so close to Danfang, why can't we see who is our neighbor?" Zhang Shaoyao said crisply.
She was standing next to Wang Yeqing, and a few steps away, even Huai Fenghua was there. This small courtyard seemed to have magic power, since it attracted the attention of batches of people throughout the day.
Chen Zhuo forced a smile, "The city lord gave me a kick not long ago. If you guys were still here, I might not survive today."
Huaifenghua looked at the small courtyard from the side, nodding with satisfaction from time to time. After hearing this, she looked back and asked, "Is this arranged by Mu Qing?"
Chen Zhuo spread his hands with helplessness on his face.
Huaifenghua smiled knowingly and said to Wang Yeqing: "Yesterday, I was still wondering why this guy left Qingyi aside, but it turns out there is a surprise prepared here."
Wang Yeqing was a little helpless, "He didn't leave Miss Bai alone. Xiuwei and Bai Zhi ran to Miss Bai all day long, talking to Miss Bai every day..."
Huaifenghua was startled, raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, so you already know what that kid is doing. It's a shame that I still scold this little bastard in front of you every day."
Wang Yeqing saw Zhang Shaoyao looking at him with resentment in her eyes, and said quickly: "I just have some guesses. After all, Chen Zhuo wants to take away many skilled craftsmen from me."
Huaifenghua was happy to see this kind of thing happen, so she thought for a moment and warned, "Let's go. Don't tell anyone about this first, so as not to ruin the kid's arrangements."
Zhang Shaoyao pouted. She had an intuition the first time she saw Bai Qingyi, so after knowing that Mu Qingzhen was related to Bai Qingyi, she didn't have too many emotions. She followed Huaifenghua out of the courtyard and said: " There is indeed nothing strange here. Master, you should come with me to see the woman from the Gu family. She is so advanced that she even came to Suzaku City. I think she must have some thoughts about me!!!"
Huaifenghua smiled helplessly, pinched her apprentice's bulging face, and said, "Probably not. I heard your sister-in-law and others mentioned this person..."
Earlier, when Huaifenghua and the others had just stepped into the courtyard, Mu Qing had already stepped into the door of the house.
It is afternoon, the sunlight is shining in the courtyard, and the flowers and plants are glowing with early vitality. At this time, the two brothers Wu Qing and Wu Ling will go to Jiuyou Tower Square to play with their friends, and Liu Yueshan will go to Jiuyou Tower to help Wang Yeqing. Something happened, and the whole house was extremely quiet. Only voices and laughter could be heard from a small courtyard connected to the corner of the corridor.
After confirming that Bai Qingyi was there, Mu Qing exhaled a breath and walked towards the small courtyard.
In the small courtyard room, Wang Xiuwei was moving a dressing mirror in front of Bai Qingyi and said with satisfaction: "How is it? It looks good, right?"
? "
Bai Qingyi looked at her face in the mirror, forced a smile, and hummed.
Wang Xiuwei was dissatisfied with Bai Qingyi's perfunctory approach and pulled Bai Zhi aside, "Sister, do you think my makeup looks good?"
Bai Zhi glanced at Wang Xiuwei helplessly. The two of them obviously still had an arduous task, but Wang Xiuwei got carried away by having fun first. In the past few days, he came here every day with the "creations" in the store. Fortunately, Bai Qingyi always Very cooperative.
Thinking of this, Bai Zhi looked at Bai Qingyi's face carefully, nodded and said, "Sister Qingyi is so beautiful."
Wang Xiuwei raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean? It means that my makeup doesn't look good."
Bai Zhi was not afraid of Wang Xiuwei, and immediately counterattacked with her hands on her hips: "Of course, your blush is too thick, and you also have lipstick, eyebrow makeup..."
Bai Zhi scolded Wang Xiuwei a lot, then turned her eyes and found that the seat in front of the dressing table was empty. She paused and looked towards the window, "Sister Qingyi."
Bai Qingyi stood by the window, looking at the flowers and plants in the small courtyard. She was silent for a moment and said, "Are you the ones he called to accompany me?"
Bai Zhi looked at Wang Xiuwei in a panic. .
Wang Xiuwei puffed up his chest and looked like he was sacrificing his life for righteousness. He walked to Bai Qingyi's side, frowned and sighed: "You still saw it."
Bai Qingyi turned sideways and smiled helplessly: "I already guessed it when you came to see me on the first day. Look at what you have asked me these days - what do you like to eat, what color clothes do you like to wear, where did you live when you were a child? What's the room like... As of today, you seem to have asked all the questions you can think of."
Bai Qingyi paused for a moment, and his eyes became sad, "But I still stay in this courtyard with you. Apart from you, only Yueshan and the others will come over occasionally."
Bai Zhi said quickly: "Sister Qingyi, brother Mu Qing is too busy."
Bai Qingyi nodded slightly, a little lost in thought. She stood in front of the window and recalled her experiences in Beihuang. She really felt a trace of regret and...complaint.
Yes, it’s just complaining.
She was very upset that she had such emotions, but whenever she thought of how bad her relationship with Mu Qing had become, her emotions would turn into a mess.
She realized that she had overestimated herself and her ability to handle the relationship with Mu Qing, so she would either not come here, or openly confess her relationship with Mu Qing in front of everyone.
But she made one mistake at a time.
The reflections of the flowers and plants in the courtyard shifted. After an unknown amount of time, Bai Qingyi's eyes moved slightly, she came back to her senses, and sighed softly: "Hey..."
Suddenly, Bai Qingyi realized that there was a lot of silence around her. She looked to her side and saw that Wang Xiuwei and Bai Zhi had left. Looking behind her, Bai Qingyi's eyes were slightly startled, and she quickly turned around and covered her face with her hands.
Mu Qing, who had been standing behind Bai Qingyi for who knows how long, quickly walked up to her and hugged her, worriedly asking: "What's wrong?"
"..."
"It's nothing..." Bai Qingyi buried her face deeply in her hands, "Can you leave?"
Mu Qing's movements froze slightly, and he felt a little blocked. He slowly let go of Bai Qingyi, "Okay. I'll wait for you outside until you are willing to see me."
Just when Mu Qing turned around, Bai Qingyi grabbed his arm and covered his face with his arm, "Don't get me wrong, it's because Xiu Wei's skills are not good and the makeup is too thick."
"ah……"
Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Then I'll ask her to come in."
"Wait a minute, I'll take you somewhere."
