At the dawn of dawn, Gu Fan secretly returned to the Guangping Marquis Mansion.

Gu Liang is not in the mansion now. He is sitting in the south camp at the moment. He also caught Gu Fan in the military camp and gave him a lesson. If he were at home, Gu Fan would not dare to come back, but now that the Zhao family is respected in the mansion, he

Naturally, I am confident.

When entering the inner courtyard through the hanging flower gate, a charming girl appeared on the opposite side. She was slightly startled when she saw the tired-looking Gu Fan and asked: "Fourth brother, you were not at home last night?"

Gu Fan yawned and forced a smile: "Little sister, why do you get up so early?"

As she got closer, Gu Zhen smelled the faint scent of powder on her elder brother's body. She couldn't help but frown and said softly: "Fourth brother, you went out to have fun and have fun again. If dad finds out, I won't spare you."

"It doesn't matter."

Gu Fan waved his hand confidently and said, "I'm not going out to play this time, but my father told me to do things. I'm afraid he doesn't know."

Gu Zhen looked at him suspiciously. It was obvious that this brother had a lot of misdeeds in the past, which made her unable to trust her. However, she had a gentle and kind temperament and was very similar to her mother Zhao, so she just advised him gently: "Fourth brother,

You'd better change it so that your father and mother won't be angry or sad."

Gu Fan's beautiful peach blossom eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, and he came over and said, "Little sister, do you know who I met last night?"

"Sister, I don't know."

"Let me tell you, I went to see that boy Pei Yue, the bastard from Duke Dingguo's mansion."

"ah?"

Gu Zhen's beautiful eyes rolled around and she exhaled softly.

Several months have passed since she last heard Pei Yue's name.

Logically speaking, she shouldn't be so concerned about a strange boy.

Growing up, Gu Liang and Zhao naturally loved her very much, but they were not too tolerant and doting on her. Therefore, Gu Zhen was a standard lady, who was particular about smiling, not showing her teeth, and not looking at anyone who was disrespectful. In the past fifteen years, she has seen everyone

There were very few men with a foreign surname, and the most outrageous thing they did on weekdays was to chat with their personal maids about the future. That day at the Dingguo Palace, she heard with her own ears Pei Yue's calm defense in such a dangerous situation, which undoubtedly left a deep impression on her.

deep impression.

She was indeed a little curious about the young man who did not feel sorry for himself in this difficult situation, but after returning home, she had no channel to receive news.

The outside world is a completely unfamiliar territory to her.

Therefore, the girl had no choice but to bury her curiosity deep in her heart.

Gu Fan looked at Gu Zhen's slightly excited face suspiciously, frowned and asked: "Little sister, are you that brat Zhong Yi?"

Gu Zhen's pretty face first blushed, and then anger appeared in her eyes, with a hint of crying in her voice: "Fourth brother, what are you talking about? I'll tell my mother to go."

Gu Fandeng was a little panicked. It was true that the Zhao family loved his youngest son very much, but Gu Zhen's status in the family was very special. Let alone the Zhao family, if the three brothers knew that he bullied Gu Zhen in the future, even if

He would be beaten half to death, especially with his terrifying fists, which could break three of his ribs with one punch!

"Hey, little sister, fourth brother was drunk yesterday and hasn't sobered up yet. He's talking nonsense. You have a lot, so don't take it seriously."

He quickly stopped in front of Gu Zhen, apologizing and begging for mercy.

Seeing him being so groveling, Gu Zhen couldn't move on, so she could only say angrily: "Fourth brother, my sister and Mr. Pei are strangers to each other, how can you speak so frivolously?"

Gu Fan wiped the sweat from his head and said with a smile: "You are right, fourth brother has gone astray, and that Pei Yue is not a good person, he is as cunning as a fox, he is young but has many tricks, you must wipe it

Keep your eyes open, don’t be fooled by this guy’s sweet words.”

The more he spoke, the more unlikeable he became. Gu Zhen first spat, and then retorted: "Fourth brother, although my sister doesn't know Mr. Pei, she also knows that he is definitely not the kind of person you said. Fourth brother, since

If you call yourself a knight-errant, how can you talk about other people's rights and wrongs behind their backs? Is this an aboveboard and aboveboard behavior of a knight-errant?"

Gu Fan was slightly startled, is this still my gentle and kind-hearted sister who even the maid can't bear to scold?

Also, why did you go to the southern border for a while, and when you came back, there were signs of betrayal and separation?

Not to mention the parents, even the little girl who never steps out of the door is siding with that brat. Is there any justice?

Looking at him with strange eyes, Gu Zhen couldn't help but feel a little flustered. After thinking about it, she briefly recounted what she heard that day in the West Nuan Pavilion of Ding'an Hall.

After hearing this, Gu Fan felt relieved. Pei Yue was a guy with a miserable life experience. People in his family were all sympathetic to the poor and weak, so it was no wonder they would look down upon that guy.

When he thought of this, he remembered Gu Liang's instructions to him, and laughed softly: "Little sister, can fourth brother take you out for an outing?"

Gu Zhen coughed twice and said helplessly: "Fourth brother, what time of year is it now? Why go out for an outing? That's all, you go back and have a rest. I'm going to pay my respects to my mother."

Gu Fan scratched his head, pretending to be regretful and said: "You don't want to go there yourself, it has nothing to do with me. Originally, I thought that the village in Pei Yue was very beautiful, and wanted to take you to see it. Forget it, I'd better go by myself.

."

Gu Zhen, who had already taken a few steps forward, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at him, then lowered her head slightly and said, "Staying at home is indeed a bit boring. If the fourth brother is willing to take his sister to go outside the city to escape the summer heat, that would also be great.

Woolen cloth."

Gu Fan raised his eyebrows at her and smiled proudly.

My father had considered this matter extremely difficult before, fearing that he would not be able to successfully take his little sister out of the city, but now it seems that it is nothing more than a trivial matter, and I can solve it with some tricks.

He smiled with satisfaction, but seeing Gu Zhen showing a very rare hint of shame on the ground, he couldn't help but feel a bit bitter in his laughter.

Hey!

…

To the southwest of Kyoto, the Hengduan Mountains are like a sleeping dragon, winding and stretching for thousands of miles.

The dense forest is green, wild animals are rampant, and dangers are everywhere, and ordinary people dare not go deep into it.

For thousands of years, this place has been an inaccessible place. Even the members of the royal family who luckily escaped from the palace fire when the Wei Dynasty fell, faced with the rebellion everywhere in the world and had nowhere to hide.

Nor dared to escape into the Hengduan Mountains.

However, starting from April of the second year of Kaiping, a team of highly skilled and disciplined men appeared on an unnamed peak in the northern section of the mountain range. Then new partners continued to join, as well as a steady stream of grain and grass shipped from nowhere.

Materials.

There is a flat open space to the northeast of Wuming Peak, where the midday sun shines down with bits of gold.

Two women appeared at the edge of the open space, seemingly looking at Daliang Kyoto a hundred miles away.

There is a huge age gap between the two, one is less than 20 years old, and the other is about 40 years old. They are both very ordinary in appearance and would not attract any attention in the crowd.

The young woman's eyes were clear and she said calmly: "Aunt Leng, please go out in the next few days."

The older woman nodded and asked, "Have you decided? Do you really want to help that person?"

The young woman sneered and said: "It's just a village with hundreds of rubbish. Get rid of it so that the uncle can do his best to help us."

Aunt Leng smiled softly, full of contempt for the person in her mouth, and said slowly: "In that case, I will go there myself to find out the truth about that Zhuangzi."

The young woman turned to look at her, with a hint of concern in her eyes, and said, "Is there any clue about that matter?"

Aunt Leng shook her head when she heard this and sighed: "I'm afraid I can't find it."

The young woman did not comfort him, but said in a deep voice: "So we have to be more ruthless. Even if we can't stir up the storm this time, we still have to take a bite out of the old thief."

Aunt Leng suppressed the sadness in her heart, looked at the young woman with some worry, and said softly: "Girl, the matter here has been planned, it is enough as long as we are here, you should go back first."

The young woman shook her head and smiled lightly, but there was no smile in her voice: "Of course you have to do things like revenge with your own hands."
