The first male queen [crossing]

In late autumn, the leaves of the trees in the Duke's mansion had already turned yellow, and when the wind blows, they whirl and fall down.

Gu Junci stood in the courtyard and looked at the tree trunk with few leaves left, sighed and stepped down the courtyard. He was carrying a bundle on his body, and on his back was a wooden box, which contained the gift from King Linyang. With a broken gun at the edge of the moon, a strong suit with black sleeves and narrow sleeves, his hair is loose, tied and wiped on his forehead, and his expression is stern.

"My son, my son."

As soon as Gu Junci walked to the door, he heard Ah Chun's voice behind him. He stopped and looked back, watching Ah Chun running quickly:

"Slow down."

Ah Chun panted and ran in front of Gu Junci, grabbed Gu Junci's arm and said, "Master, where are you going? Let the little one go with you."

Gu Junci patted his arm, and said softly: "I'm going to Yunzhong, Zhuozhou, Xingyang, and go out to relax. I don't have to keep up. This house still needs you to take care of it, and those children still need your care. Woolen cloth."

Ah Chun was a little puzzled: "My lord, why are you so good, you are leaving Chang'an suddenly, how long will you be there?"

Gu Junci drooped his eyelids and pondered for a while, his breathing was also a little slow, recalling the scene at Prince Qing's Mansion and the words he heard, he could think clearly during the period of recuperation, some things both It has become a fact and has to be accepted, including that he is just a character written by Xiao Yuan.

He is not him.

But it was also him.

Gu Junci could understand and figure it out, but it was difficult to accept it for a while, so he chose to leave Chang'an City and stay away from Xiao Yuan to sort out the predicament he was facing.

He patted Ah Chun on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "A year or so at most, or three to five months at least. Don't worry, I will come back. Show me the house. When I'm not around, you're the one who decides." .”

Ah Chun pouted, looking embarrassed, but seeing that Gu Jun had made up his mind to resign, he didn't stop him.

Gu Junci stepped down the steps and walked towards the horse with his Bai Ze sword hanging on it. There were still water bags and soft bags hanging on the saddle, but he had just taken two steps before turning back to look at Ah Chun and continuing to make arrangements. :

"Ah Chun, if someone is looking for me, you don't have to hide it, just tell the truth. If there is something important, just tell him that I won't be back for the time being. If you can wait, let them wait."

Ah Chun saluted and responded: "I know son, you can go to play at ease, I have everything in the mansion, and I will take care of you when you leave, and how you will be when you come back."

Gu Junci lowered his eyebrows and smiled slightly, turned on the horse and tightened the reins of the horse, and rode the horse away.

On the tower of Chang'an City, Xiao Yuan and Pei Sheng stood side by side, looking at the people going away on which road outside Chang'an City, with different expressions.

Pei Sheng looked at Xiao Yuan's side face, and couldn't help worrying: "Ah Yuan, you are so relieved that he will leave. It has been two months, and every time you look for him, he will always avoid you."

Xiao Yuan held his hands behind his back, and his breathing was a little heavy: "Now that the matter is out of the way, I expected him to be unacceptable. He has lived in Chang'an for many years, and if he wants to leave for a while, I will also It doesn't matter, he will always come back."

Pei Sheng frowned slightly: "Are you so confident?"

Xiao Yuan lowered his eyebrows and smiled: "Well, because he is Gu Junci, I trust him, it's as simple as that."

Pei Sheng shrugged helplessly, and really couldn't figure out what was going on between these two people. They talked about it, but why did they become different, and the other one even left without saying goodbye. If Xiao Yuan didn't understand Gu Junci, he would have Before he left the mansion, he came to this city tower to wait, and he was afraid that he would have to wait for a long time to see him again.

From Chang'an to Yunzhong, the distance is not far, and it is not close, but within six or seven days, Gu Junci arrived in Yunzhong.

After the emperor of the previous dynasty executed Xu Yi, the first marquis, at Hanyang Pass, the Xu family in the cloud fell. Now the new dynasty has a new atmosphere, and Xu Yanqing made great achievements in the unification of the new dynasty, so Xiao Boxu was awarded the title Xu Yanqing was appointed Marquis of Jingbian.

Although Xu Yanqing and Xiao Boxu agreed when they resigned and returned to their hometown, the title was still retained, so the mansion of the Marquis of Jingbian was still in the cloud, and the Xu family in the cloud reappeared in the cloud, just in time for this frontier guard Xu Yanqing's generals are familiar with each other, so Xu Yanqing will also give some advice on the matter of guarding the border.

In Jingbian Hou's mansion, Gu Junci and Xu Yanqing set up a banquet in the courtyard. Under the cool light, the two exchanged glasses and drank a lot of wine, but they were not afraid of the cool wind in the late autumn night.

"It's almost winter." Gu Junci poured the wine again.

Xu Yanqing nodded: "That's right, the winter in the northern region comes early, but it's also late, not as good as in the Central Plains."

Gu Junci drank the wine, and saw a child running up the corridor, only three or four years old, holding a small lantern in his hand, running fast, ran up to Xu Yanqing, hugging his thigh road:

"Father, mother asked me to ask what time it is, and it's time to go to bed. She said that Uncle Gu has had a hard journey, and he should rest earlier."

Gu Junci listened to the child's words, pulled him in front of him, looked at him and said, "Zhen'er, tell Uncle, have you missed Uncle these few months?"

Zhen'er tilted her head and pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "I think about it, I think the delicious food cooked at Uncle's house, Zhen'er likes to eat the eight-treasure duck from Uncle's house the most."

After listening to Gu Junci, he laughed with Xu Yanqing, and even scratched the tip of Zhen'er's little nose, and then said:

"Brother Xu, let's rest, or Madam will teach you a lesson."

Xu Yanqing put down her wine glass and smiled, quickly hugged Zhen'er and stood up, "Okay, it's cold here at night, even if you are a martial arts practitioner, you have to pay attention to keeping warm."

"I know." Gu Jun replied, and then walked to the guest room together with the attendants who came.

After leaving Chang'an City and meeting old friends, Gu Junci felt much happier.

In particular, Xu Yanqing didn't ask him why he left Chang'an to come to Yunzhong, which made Gu Junci feel more at ease.

Hearing that the Lord Protector had come to Yunzhong, the general guarding the border also came to the Marquis Mansion to meet Gu Junci the next day, and then took Gu Junci to patrol around the border and asked Gu Junci to guide the gatekeepers at the various checkpoints here. Distribution, as well as the deployment of border personnel and a series of military issues.

After all the checkpoints were completed, almost two months later, it had already snowed at the border, and there was a vast expanse of whiteness, with a threatening chill.

There is a small town outside the Hanyang Pass, which has been used as a place for trading goods between Rongdi and the Central Plains. There are mixed fish and dragons here, and there are people from Rongdi and the Central Plains. However, because of the snowing season in winter, there are no people in the small town, and it is deserted and quiet. of.

Gu Junci also heard about the existence of such a place from the generals guarding the border, and thought it was strange, so he came to have a look.

There was a stove burning in the center of the inn lobby, and the whole inn was warmed by the heating. Gu Junci entered the inn, dusted off the snow on his body, and saw that there were still many people gathering together to drink in the inn. , hurriedly walked to the counter, and put on two silver lines:

"Do you have a guest room? Take one."

The shopkeeper flipped through the ledger and said with a smile: "There is one last room left, but it's just a low-class room. I don't know how long the young master will live in."

Gu Junci looked around: "How long do they live?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "Naturally, I will live in the spring of the next year, and the young master will live for that long?"

Gu Junci nodded, and after paying the deposit to the shopkeeper, he took the room number from him, and walked upstairs with his sword in hand.

But as soon as he reached the stairs, he saw a man coming down from the upstairs, with beards and eyes full of murderous intent. When he saw Gu Junci, his eyes were also looking up and down, with hostility.

Gu Junci frowned slightly, and always felt that this person's features were familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere, but it was a pity that his beard blocked most of his face, so he couldn't remember it all the time.

He had doubts in his heart, but he went upstairs with his burden and walked to his room.

The inn here is cramped. There is only one bed in the room, and a long table is placed against the wall. You can see it as soon as you open the door. There is a shelf for the wooden basin in the corner, and the washing machine is placed behind the bed. The wooden barrel used is separated by a screen.

Although cramped, it has everything.

Gu Junci put down the burden and the wooden box containing the Po Yue Yajiao gun, and then lay on the bed, listening to the sound of drinking and fisting coming from downstairs, feeling extremely calm.

From his birth to now, from Xuanji Kingdom to here, all the people and things he experienced caused waves in his heart, and after the waves passed, he returned to calm, so he had to sit up from the bed, lowered his eyes and smiled slightly.

"It's been nine years, time flies so fast." Gu Junci got up and left the room, went downstairs to order some food, and then went back to the room.

It's just that just after the door opened, Gu Junci always felt that there was something strange in the room. After all, the inn outside the pass was mixed with fish and dragons, and it was probably common for petty theft to come in.

Gu Junci didn't say anything, just sat down on the bed, looked at the Bai Zejian placed next to the pillow, quickly held it in his hand, glanced sideways at the tub behind the screen, and murmured:

"Did I call you to come out, or did you come out by yourself? The stealing came from me, don't you know that I'm the King of Hades who kills people without blinking an eye? Come out!"

Hearing Gu Junci's stern threat, the person hiding in the bathtub hurriedly leaned out half of his body, and said cautiously:

"Young master, don't do anything, I didn't steal anything, I just came out to hide for a while."

"Come out." Gu Jun said.

The person who spoke quickly stood up from the tub, crossed his legs out of the tub, and came to Gu Junci timidly.

Gu Junci carefully looked at the person standing in front of him. He was dressed in Rong Di's attire. Although he was tall, his face was still childish, and he looked about sixteen or seventeen years old.

"What are you doing in my room?" Gu Junci asked.

The young man looked up at Gu Junci straightly, and after saluting him with his right fist on his chest, he said respectfully:

"I was hiding from someone. There was an accident in my family some time ago. My uncle killed my mother in order to seize my property. My mother rescued me with all her might. In the end, my uncle still sent someone to hunt and kill me. I I saw that person just now, he came here to kill me, so I hid in your room, son, please forgive me."

Gu Junci stared straight at him, seeing how respectful Vino was when he spoke, and it didn't seem like he was telling a lie, so he couldn't help but smiled:

"Why should I trust you?"

The young man scratched his head anxiously, and finally had an idea, and took out the wolf tooth pendant from his neck, which was engraved with a pattern similar to the family emblem. He put the wolf tooth in front of Gu Junci, and said seriously:

"My...my name is Urenger, and this is the crest of my family."

Gu Junci took the wolf tooth, carefully looked at the pattern on the wolf tooth, seemed to remember seeing it many years ago, and couldn't help being a little surprised:

"You... are you from the Rongdi royal family?"
