Gu Xun, who left the mirage, looked at the full moon occupying half of the sky and sighed softly, with a rare hint of melancholy between his brows.
The change in Yan Fei's thoughts caught Gu Xun off guard.
The most important thing is that he has nothing to do with Yan Fei.
In the eyes of others, the imperial master, who is invincible and domineering, also has weaknesses.
"Hmph..." Gu Xun sighed helplessly, and shouted, "Mo Crow!"
The dark figure immediately fell behind Gu Xun, blending perfectly with the night.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
"Put aside what you are doing for a moment and help me check on Concubine Yan's recent movements."
"Mrs. Yanfei!?" Mo Ya's eyes widened, and his voice became hoarse in surprise.
He hasn't been so out of his mind for many years.
Because this is the first time Gu Xun asked him to check his own personal papers.
Or to be more precise, No. 1 asked him to investigate his personal papers. Although Gu Xun did not explain his attitude, Mo Ya still made a judgment based on the tone of his words.
In the past, the purpose of investigating one's own people was to prevent the enemy's plans. In essence, it was to protect one's own people.
But this time, it is clear that it is for Yan Fei herself, and has nothing to do with any other forces or individuals.
"Well..." Gu Xun raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, then snorted, "Don't think too much, just do as I say."
"While ensuring concealment, use your greatest strength to find out all of Yan Fei's movements in the past three months. Remember, I said 'all'!"
"Who has she met, what words she has said, what meals she has eaten, what things she has done, where she has been... one by one, everything you can find, every detail, every detail.
, summarize them all and give them to me!"
There was an unprecedented seriousness in Gu Xun's voice, a seriousness that Mo Ya had never faced before.
Even in the past, when Gu Xun and other senior officials of Liusha talked about Liusha's ultimate goal, the world, or the strategic layout of places outside the territory, he was never so serious.
"Yes...yes!"
Gu Xun's serious attitude seemed to have changed the environment. Mo Ming's depressing atmosphere made Mo Ya a little breathless, and even his voice trembled, and he accepted the task with a confused expression.
"Well... you go ahead, remember, you must get this done as soon as possible!"
After Mo Ya left, Gu Xun stood in the corner of the port, folding his arms and looking lonely at the dark ocean under the bright moon. The water reflecting the sparkling moonlight was as chaotic as his thoughts. p>
Heaven's behavior is always constant, and it will not exist for Yao, nor will it perish for Jie!
This is a sentence in Xunzi's "On Heaven", and it is also Gu Xun's favorite sentence.
So he actually doesn't care much about the so-called big things he does in the eyes of ordinary people.
Who by the river sees the moon for the first time, and when does the moon on the river shine on people for the first time?
When the coordinate axis representing time is lengthened, and when the calculation unit is measured in millennia, everything he does is just an inevitable experience of the development of the human world, and it will not change anything, it is just sooner or later.
All he cares about is people.
And Concubine Yan is now making him very upset and worried.
………………
"Coming!"
Shi Lan, who had been standing on the ridge of the roof, as motionless as a statue, suddenly opened his eyes that had been closed for a long time. After issuing a reminder, he quickly turned over and stood on the edge of the eaves, looking towards the east road.
】
That road leads to Songhai Port, and at the end is the long ramp needed to land the mirage.
Shao Yu, who had stayed up all night, had long been fascinated by the lake, but he didn't really fall asleep. The slightest sound woke him up.
"Is there someone!?"
Shao Yu, who was in a dying illness, suddenly stood up and stood up, straightened his back, looked around, and pushed Tian Ming's head aside in his arms.
"Hey young!"
Tianming's head was suddenly thrown from the warm and soft belly flesh to the hard and cold tiles. Naturally, he woke up immediately, covering his head, with sleepy eyes and a look of confusion.
"What's wrong?"
After the two brothers, who were a little confused, looked at each other, Tianming took the lead decisively and pushed Shaoyu, "What are you doing! Why did you throw my (head) on the ground!?"
"No, there was a sudden noise just now and I was startled..." Shaoyu felt that he was in the wrong and did not argue with Tianming. He just turned to look at the other side and changed the subject, "Shi Lan, what happened?"
Shi Lan turned her head and glanced at the brothers, "You...are here to investigate the mirage, right?"
In front of the goddess, Shaoyu changed his usual cautiousness and nodded simply, and asked by the way, "That's right, you too?"
Shi Lan didn't respond, or maybe she did, but her nod was too small and Shao Yu didn't notice it.
All in all, it doesn't matter, Shaoyu doesn't care either.
He continued, "We have been investigating the mirage before, but there has been no progress. Now that the mirage has finally appeared, there may be no breakthrough."
"Better be careful, it's... very dangerous up there."
Perhaps it was Shao Yu's words that reminded Shi Lan of her brother who risked boarding the ship and then disappeared without a trace, so she couldn't help but remind him.
After hearing this, Shaoyu immediately smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, don't worry, we won't rush in."
There are three major misconceptions in life. Does our little overlord have such symptoms... Let’s leave it to Mongolia. Anyway, Tianming on the side couldn’t help but squint his eyes.
He suddenly understood what Shao Yu had seen him like when he was following Qian Long!
Wrong!
Tianming quickly shook this thought out of his mind.
I am much better than Shao Yu, a loser like me. Qianlong always smiles when he sees him, but when Shi Lan sees him...hehe, they don't even look at him!
Shaoyu caught a glimpse of the disdainful gaze of the boy next to him, and immediately gave him an elbow in displeasure, "What are you looking at, kid!"
"Hey! What do you care what I look at!" Tianming became even more unhappy after being beaten.
Shaoyu pointed at his clothes calmly, "Of course I have to take care of it! You see how drooling you are, my clothes are almost soaked!"
Seeing the large water stain on the hem of Shao Yu's clothes, Tian Ming shrank his head in embarrassment and forced himself to respect himself, "It's not my fault, hehe, it's all because Fatty Ding's food is so delicious!"<
/p>
Shi Lan interrupted the brothers' banter and reminded again, "It's here."
"What happened?"
While the two were asking, they also moved to the edge of the eaves and looked in the direction Shi Lan was looking.
It was already early in the morning, and it was bright and clear in the middle of the night. The moon that occupied half of the sky had long since disappeared, leaving only a thin ring in the sky. There was a gray feeling between heaven and earth, but it was not dark.
My vision is also quite clear.
At the end of the broad street in the distance, white cloth lanterns with faint flames were dragged into a long dragon, moving forward slowly and uniformly. The lanterns were held by young men wearing loose white clothes.
On both sides of this group of young men, there were also a large number of imperial cavalry escorting them.
