After the nine-day exam, even Gu Qingjue felt a little tired.
After returning to the inn, I slept hard for six hours before I felt recovered.
Gu Qingjue got up and Sanqi brought breakfast. After he had eaten, Gu Er appeared from the darkness in black clothes, kneeling on one knee in front of Gu Qingjue: "Master, someone was following you when you returned to the inn yesterday evening. "
I just finished the exam yesterday, and I was a little tired, thinking it was my illusion.
Unexpectedly, someone was actually spying secretly.
If Gu Er hadn't been his personal guard, he wouldn't have noticed it.
"Have you found out who it is?"
"Gu Yi has gone to check in person and has not come back yet."
They will attach great importance to anyone who threatens their master's safety and let their leader investigate. I believe they will be able to dig out the eighteenth generation of the other party's ancestors.
There is still more than a month before the results are released. After repairing the inn, Gu Qingjue plans to return to Wangjiacun first.
Received a letter from Zhao Jin.
At that time, Lu Yijian, the prime minister of the dynasty, had not recovered from his illness for a long time, so the officials allowed him to serve as a Taiwei.
In other words, the position of prime minister was vacant.
At this time, the imperial court was very anxious because of the war in Xixia. In order to alleviate the various conflicts in the imperial court, Fan Chongyan and Fu Bi were ordered to carry out reforms.
This is the famous "New Deal" in history.
After Gu Qingjue quickly browsed Zhao Jin's letter, he burned it and asked Sanqi to prepare horses and return to Wangjiacun.
At this moment, Su Yixin was still trapped in the psychedelic array of eyes in Geyun Canyon, breaking through in cultivation.
Gu Qingjue was waiting in Wangjiacun for Qiu Wei to release the results.
It was already the second day of September, and there were still 12 days left, which would be Yixin's fifteenth birthday, which was also the gift for girls to have hair extensions.
I just don’t know if she can make it back that day.
Gu Qingjue went to the peach grove every day, picked peaches, ate one or two, and then danced with his sword in the peach grove. Even when Yixin was not around, he did not dare to slack off.
To this day, the image of her being injured and dying is deeply etched in her mind.
He said that he would protect her from now on.
After the sword dance, he sat in the pavilion built by Taolin, took out the dagger given to him by Master Yuanhui, and looked at it carefully again.
I always feel that the seven strange words on the dagger are familiar, but I still can't remember them.
He claims to have a photographic memory, how could he not remember it!
The dagger was given to Yixin by Master Zhou. Now that he had returned to Wangjiacun, he happened to go to the private school to ask about the origin of the dagger.
I went back to the house to freshen up, changed my clothes, and rode to the private school.
Unexpectedly, Master Zhou had left a few days ago to visit friends, and he didn't know when he would return.
"Zi Yuan, are you sure of your fate this time?"
Gu Qingjue took the tea handed over by his wife and said, "I should be able to win."
Chen Ruoju said with a smile: "See, Master, these questions are really unnecessary. With your talent, even Jieyuan is no problem."
"Zi Yuan thanks Master for your kind words. Since Master is not here, I will go back first and come back to visit you in two days."
After returning from private school, Gu Yi, whom he hadn't seen for several days, came back.
"Master, my subordinates found out that after you came out of the examination room that day, the person following you was sent by the Liu family."
Gu Qingjue didn't say anything, and Sanqi was so angry that she started to curse: "It's the Liu family again. Last time in Dengfeng, it was the Liu family's cooperation with the Xingyue Sect that almost killed the master. Now what kind of evil plan is he planning? "
Gu Qingjue's reaction was mediocre: "The Liu family originally recruited all the disciples from Xuanyin Valley. Now that Xuanyin Valley belongs to the nine sects and the sect leader is in charge of the sect, it is impossible for there to be disciples to take over this private job. Where did the Liu family recruit the practitioners from? man of?"
Gu Yi: "It's still the Xingyue Sect."
Gu Qingjue sneered twice: "I know, it's been a hard day these days, go down and rest!"
In the Xingyue Sect, Yi Mo was the only one who had a grudge against them.
Because of a scandal, Yi Mo had to marry Zou Yongchuan, the second youngest son of the Kuixing Sect. However, Zou Yongchuan hated being used by Yi Mo and instead of offering her the position of first wife, he promised her the position of second wife.
Equivalent to a concubine's room.
However, as the concubine of the second son of the young sect leader of Kuixing Sect of the Nine Sects, she also has a certain status. At least the person assigned to her must have some skills and will not disgrace the reputation of Kuixing Sect.
As for Yi Mo, it is unknown whether he will use these people to continue colluding with the Liu family.
This matter needs to continue to be investigated.
Now, his cultivation has reached the sixth level of Xuanjing. Only those who are at the peak of Nascent Soul can kill him.
And he believed that after the last sect competition, no one from the sect dared to do anything to him.
Unless he seeks death himself.
Gu Qingjue was still thinking about Dagger Pegasus. For a few days at home, in addition to practicing his sword, reading books and dealing with letters, he also prepared what Su Yixin and Ji needed.
Three days passed quickly.
What Gu Qingjue didn't expect was that the news of his wife's death came three days later.
When the nurse from the private school came to report the death, Gu Qingjue reacted unusually: "Master was not out visiting friends, how could he die suddenly?"
The nurse looked sad: "He died after being drunk and falling from his horse."
Gu Qingjue didn't believe it.
The Master used to like to drink, but since what happened to Hu Chuyu, the Master has stopped drinking and will not drink if anyone persuades him to do so.
Why did he break his vow after going out to visit friends? He was so drunk that he fell off his horse and died.
This matter revealed something strange.
Gu Qingjue rushed to the private school quickly. His wife Chen Ruoju's eyes were red and swollen from crying. The nurse who heard the news said that the master fell from his horse half a mile away from the private school and smelled of alcohol. The students who came to the private school happened to see it and were frightened. Qi Po almost left his body, and Sayazi came to the academy to report the news.
Then he and the nurse took Master Zhou back to his private school.
The title of Mr. Gu Qingjue Huanlin has been promoted by Master Zhou in the private school. The students of the private school, the nurse, the cook, and the maids who sweep the house all know about it. Now that the master's wife looks like this, it is natural that they all have Gu Qingjue as their backbone. .
"Did you report it to the official?"
"ah?"
The nurse who reported the news looked at Gu Qingjue blankly: "Master, he fell off his horse while drunk, do you still need to report it to the official?"
"Master, have you drank alcohol in the past three years?"
"Well, there is no such thing." There was a man in his twenties, wearing a light blue round-neck embroidered robe, with his hair tied up with a jade hairpin: "My father invited me to my home several times, and my master said that he had stopped drinking. ”
"So this time, Master went out to visit friends and suddenly drank alcohol. Something fishy happened and must be reported to the official."
When Gu Qingjue said this, how could the nurse guard say no?
Immediately take out the horses from the private school and go to the Yamen to report the incident.
Gu Qingjue, with the permission of his wife, turned around and went to Master Zhou's study to see if there were any clues.
Master Zhou's study room is very neatly tidied. There are three rows of bookshelves, on which are placed the original copies of famous books that he has collected. In the vacant space, there are some precious calligraphy, paintings and porcelain.
There is another chapter that should be arranged before noon.
