A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"Here!" Yang Sheng pointed to the official uniform on one side, "They asked you why you didn't go to duty, you slept like a dead pig, you couldn't wake up, and you were still saying some inexplicable words."

"What did I say!" Gu Qing also sat down.

"What did you say to start a big game? Start a group?" Yang Sheng asked in confusion: "What is cheating?"

"It's a bad thing!" Gu Qing slapped his thigh, and then remembered that Li Er asked him to follow Fang Xuanling to the Ministry of Education last night.

"It's only been a few days since you arrived in Chang'an, and you've already become an official." Yang Sheng was amazed.

Putting on the official uniform in a daze, Gu Qing hurriedly left the Taoist temple on a donkey, came to Chang'an and ran all the way to the palace, and said to the guard in front of the palace gate: "I will be on duty."

The guard glanced at Gu Qing's official uniform, "The time for entering the palace has passed, and you cannot enter without notification."

"I'm really on duty, I'm just late." Gu Qing said again.

The guard said again: "There is no one who is on duty at this hour. We will not let you go without notifying us."

Changsun Wuji walked all the way out of the palace, seeing Gu Qing who was blocking the door with a funny face, "Why did you come here?"

"I overslept. They didn't believe me when I said I was on duty." Gu Qing said awkwardly.

"Fang Xuanling is still dealing with political affairs, so hurry up." Changsun Wuji smiled and said to the guard in front of the palace gate, "Let him in, he is really on duty."

Only then did the guard let go of the way.

"Turn right after entering the palace gate and go directly to Zhongshu Province, don't run around, there are some places in the palace that you are not allowed to enter." Changsun Wuji looked at Gu Qing, a junior, with admiration, "Next time, don't come late."

"I said that I'm here on duty, you don't believe me!" Gu Qing hurriedly walked into the palace gate.

The faces of the two guards are very ugly. There are not many officials who can enter the Zhongshu Province. Those who are there are people who can participate in political affairs. Those who handle current political affairs are carefully selected by His Majesty to enter the Zhongshu Province , A few guards felt hairy and wanted to offend others. The future was bleak, life was gloomy, and they didn't want to do it anymore.

Chapter 27 The Bad News of the Wu Family

Hurriedly chasing Gu Qing around the palace for a long time, after asking several maids and eunuchs, he finally found Zhongshu Sheng, from a distance he saw Fang Xuanling sitting in it looking at the memorials.

Gu Qing knocked on the door, but didn't go in.

Fang Xuanling nodded to signal Gu Qing to come in, and there were some other officials sitting among them, and they were sending part of Fang Xuanling's annotated memorial to His Majesty, and part to various government offices in Chang'an.

It was very quiet here, there were no other voices, Gu Qing stood behind Fang Xuanling and watched him review the memorial.

Seeing a memorial Fang Xuanling fell into hesitation, as if hesitating for something, Gu Qing raised his eyes and saw that it was a memorial from Jingzhou, and the governor of Jingzhou, the warrior Xun, passed away.

Seeing these words, Gu Qing hastily snatched them away and read them word by word.

"You are presumptuous!" Several officials who were packing up the memorial yelled angrily when they saw Gu Qing snatch Sun Simiao's memorial with one hand.

"Teacher, this disciple must resign beforehand!" Before Fang Xuanling could reply, Gu Qingfei ran out of Zhongshu Province and left the palace all the way. The warrior Xun passed away!Counting how many years it has been since Zhenguan, what Gu Qing cares about is still Wu Mei.

Regardless of whether Wu Mei is the future empress or not, she is still just a girl in Gu Qing's heart today.

Returning to the Taoist temple in a hurry, Gu Qing began to pack his things, loaded the pistol with a magazine, brought a dagger and some dry food.

"You are going on a long trip." Yang Sheng said.

"Samurai Xun is dead!" Gu Qing said, "I'm going to see Wu Mei, and I don't know what happened to this little girl."

"Wait!" Yang Sheng said hurriedly, "How did you know about the death of the warrior Xun?"

"The memorial was sent from Jingzhou." Gu Qing said, "Who dares to scribble in the memorial."

Yang Sheng stopped Gu Qing who was in a hurry and said again: "It will take more than ten days to go from Jingzhou to Chang'an even if you go fast, do you think you will definitely see the Wu Mei you mentioned when you go to Jingzhou?"

"What else can she do besides being filial at this time!" Gu Qing said loudly, pushing Yang Sheng away and leaving.

"Wu Yuanshuang and Wu Yuanqing are in Chang'an!" Yang Sheng said to Gu Qing, "Maybe Samurai Xun has been dead for a while, these two brothers are the eldest son and second son of Warrior Xun, they came to Chang'an to find Their younger sister seems to be named Wu Mei."

Gu Qing stopped and turned to look at Yang Sheng.

Yang Sheng was taken aback by Gu Qing's eyes, he had never seen such an expression on Gu Qing's face before, "I have some friends in Chang'an, they told me that these two brothers wanted to sell their sister, who knew that little The girl actually ran away."

Standing on the same spot, Gu Qing was speechless.

Yang Sheng continued: "Those two brothers are really cowards, they even sold their own sister!"

"How many friends do you have in Chang'an?" Gu Qing stepped forward and asked.

"It's quite a lot." Yang Sheng stepped back, Gu Qing's expression was horrifying, he held the pistol tightly in his hand, and then said: "Don't worry, I ask my friend in Chang'an to look for it, maybe I can find this Wu Mei."

Speaking of which, Yang Sheng also hurried out to find someone.

Gu Qing sat weakly on the threshold of the Taoist temple for a long time, with Wu Mei's innocent smile in his mind, a gust of spring breeze passed Gu Qing got up again and ran to Chang'an.

It's late at night in Chang'an, and it's curfew time. The weak figure is hiding in the city. There are no tears in her eyes, but more calmness.

"found it!"

Wu Mei trembled when she heard the voice behind her, she looked back and saw a cloth head coming towards her, she stuffed it into her mouth and before she could see the person clearly, she covered it with a cloth bag.

"Good skill."

"Master, I was a bandit when I was young, and I often kidnapped people." The monk held the cloth bag behind his back, "Is she the girl that Mr. Yang is looking for?"

"No mistake!" someone replied.

"The gates of the city are closed now, so it's not easy to go out." Another person said, "The guy on duty guarding the city is an old acquaintance of Mr. Yang, so it should be settled. Let's wait for news."

Wu Mei had been listening to those two people talking, and when she heard that she was going out of the city, she knew that the opportunity had come, and when she got to the city gate, she made some noise.

Gu Qing was still wearing an official uniform and standing with Yang Sheng at a corner of Chang'an City to avoid the soldiers patrolling the city, "Is she not in Chang'an City?"

"I don't know." Yang Sheng also said.

In the dark night, a short man with strong agility came rushing over, "Boss Yang has been found."

Hearing this, Gu Qing immediately stepped forward, "Where are you?"

"Keep your voice down!" Yang Sheng reminded, "Where is the person?"

The dwarf looked around vigilantly, "The fat monk has found someone, and he is waiting for news from Mr. Yang."

"Don't wait, let's go!"

Speaking of which, Gu Qing followed Yang Sheng and the short man carefully walking in the dark night of Chang'an City, and saw two figures as they walked through the paths.

"Monk, is the man in your hand?" Yang Sheng asked, holding the knife.

The fat monk laughed, "It's in the bag, don't worry, Mr. Yang, he's still alive!"
