It was Yan Huai's words that Gu Junci recalled in his mind. From this point of view, Gu Junci has no reason to prevent their brothers from recognizing each other, let alone worry that Xu Yanqing will fall into crisis again.

Gu Jun said: "Brother Xu, maybe I know where your cousin is."

Xu Yanqing expressed her inconceivability, but after confirming Gu Junci's firm gaze, she followed his footsteps and walked towards the wing where Yan Huai lived.

Sure enough, Xu Yanqing and Yan Huai burst into tears when they met, and told about all the recent experiences. Gu Junci felt very bad when he heard it, so he left the room silently, and sat alone on the stone bench in the pavilion. His eyes stared at the water.

Gu Junci was a little homesick. The farthest place he left home was the southern border, but he knew that one day he would return home.

But right now, he is in such a time and space, saying that he doesn't want to go home is a lie, but he doesn't know how to go back, or even when he will go back.

As a result, Gu Junci's face no longer had the smile of the past, but there was only a sad silence.

"Infinite Life Buddha, why is Mr. Gu sitting here? Didn't you go to find Mr. Xu just now?"

It was Chang Shan who spoke. He stroked his beard lightly and sat down beside Gu Junci with a smile.

Gu Jun said: "Brother Xu is meeting his cousin right now. The two must have a lot to talk about. I'm an outsider. It's best to hide."

A little surprise flashed across the Taoist priest's expression, and then he suddenly realized: "Fate is really wonderful, sometimes there are such coincidences."

Gu Junci smiled and said nothing.

The Taoist stared at Gu Junci and said: "I look at Mr. Gu's face, he should be a man of wealth and heaven, but why do you look at Mr. Gu with a frown?"

Gu Junci suppressed his smile and looked into the eyes of the Taoist priest: "What does the Taoist priest mean?"

The Taoist priest stroked his beard lightly: "The meaning of the poor is that Mr. Gu is a man with an extraordinary destiny, and he may be above tens of thousands of people in the future, but before that, you still have a doom, and once you pass through this doom safely, you will die." Ascend by day."

Gu Junci looked at him suspiciously, not knowing how to answer him for a while.

If he can go back to the Xuanji Kingdom, he probably wants to fight for the throne that his elder brother cares about. Then he is the one who is above tens of thousands. This doom is probably because he needs to use some dangerous method to go back.

Thinking of this, Gu Junci's heart suddenly became clear and clear: "Then use the auspicious words of Taoism to strive for this disaster to come as soon as possible, so that I can become a person above tens of millions as soon as possible."

The Taoist stroked his beard and smiled thoughtfully.

But after a while, Gu Jun said: "Master Dao, what is the origin of the second master? Why doesn't he look like a bandit, but like a rich man, very dignified."

The Taoist priest said: "The second head of the family is a miserable person. When he was young, the country was ruined and his family was displaced. Over the shoulder, even expelled from the examination room, it was the owner of the villa Duan who took him in and took care of all the affairs of the villa for him, his personality is really weird, Mr. Gu, please don't take offense."

Gu Junci smiled: "No wonder, no wonder he has such great hostility towards the court, but this is also the court's loss, I have to admire his piano skills, and archery skills, and it is rare in the world to shoot five arrows in a row. "

The Taoist priest said with a smile: "It's natural, but besides his piano and archery skills, his calligraphy is also amazing."

After being praised by the Taoist priest, Gu Junci recalled Meng Chengye's appearance, and he was not as alienated as before, but he just thought this person was very interesting.

Then, because Xu Yanqing and Yan Huai met at Poyun Villa, the owner of this period naturally wanted to show his friendship as a landlord, and held a banquet to celebrate the reunion of their brothers. Even Gu Junci felt that they did not come to Poyun Villa The investigators, on the contrary, seem to be visiting relatives.

Poyun Villa is full of rough old men, so of course there are no other preparations for this banquet including drinking and eating meat.

Considering that Yan Huai was wounded by arrows and poisoned, he could only eat some light vegetables and rice porridge, nothing else.

After drinking for three rounds, someone asked during the banquet: "Since the Twelve Taibao are descendants of the Yan family of Zhuozhou, did the Yan family of Zhuozhou really collude with the people of Western Shu and cause the late emperor to fall into an ambush?"

As soon as these words came out, all of them turned their attention to Yan Huai, and Gu Junci was no exception. He drank from a wine bowl, and then looked at Yan Huai with drunken eyes, but he caught sight of the banquet from the corner of his eye. Meng Chengye, who was still reserved and self-sufficient, held the wine bowl and drank it as if no one else was there, unwilling to know the truth about the fall of the Yan family in Zhuozhou.

Gu Junci was a little puzzled, why did this Meng Chengye hold back so much and didn't want to pry into this secret?

Gu Junci moved to Meng Chengye's side, and reached out to pour wine for him, but Meng Chengye looked sideways.Gu Junci's eyebrows and eyes are curved, the brightness in his eyes is like stars, and even his smile is very friendly and cute:

"Everyone here wants to know about my twelfth brother, why aren't you interested?"

Meng Chengye looked directly at the man with stars in his eyes, drinking his wine with his eyes closed: "I'm just not interested."

Gu Junci smiled, but he had no intention of evacuating at all. He really wanted to find clues from the face of this cold-faced man, why he faced everyone and things so coldly.

At this moment, Yan Huai also revealed the real reason why the Yan family was exterminated.

The current emperor was still King Xiang back then, and he led the army to the west with the late emperor. The land of Western Shu was extremely prosperous, especially the local embroidered brocades, which were also top-grade. Surrounded by big countries, Xishu is more like a delicacy for everyone to share.

Compared with wealth, there is also a famous Princess Xinrui in Xishu, not to mention her appearance, especially her ability to play the piano is superb, even if she is married, she is still famous far and wide.

Later, this princess Xinrui appeared in the Jin army for some reason, and even died in an extremely tragic manner, and there were different opinions for a while.And Yan Huai's father led a heavy army to go out with the first emperor at that time, and witnessed the scene where Princess Xinrui was taken into the barracks by the people under King Xiang, so he naturally thought that Xinrui's death might have something to do with King Xiang.

It would be fine if King Xiang thought he was addicted to wine and sex, but he wants to establish a reputation as a virtuous king. Only in this way can he win the favor of the late emperor, and he will have a chance to win the final victory in the battle for succession.

So he naturally wouldn't let the matter of Xinrui affect him, so he went to Yan Huai's father and told him that Xinrui was just intended to be dedicated to the late emperor, but he didn't know why she would get it wrong. will die tragically.

Yan Huai's father naturally wouldn't believe it, and even used military regulations and discipline to reprimand King Xiang, and even sued the late emperor.

After all, it was not someone else who died, but Princess Xinrui of Xishu. Originally, the monarch of Xishu was willing to surrender. If Princess Xinrui died in their barracks, this Xishu would definitely not surrender again, even if she died in battle. Only the last person left will also remember the hatred of Princess Xinrui.

Therefore, in order to cover up his mistakes, King Xiang and his subordinates designed a disaster for the first emperor. Yan Huai's father colluded with the emperor of Western Shu and killed Princess Xinrui under the illusion that he succeeded in making the first emperor point all the spearheads at the Yan family in Zhuozhou. , thus destroying it in one fell swoop.

And Yan Huai was also because his father had a loyal lieutenant general who tried his best to keep him and even taught him martial arts.After listening to Yan Huai's explanation of the truth about Yan's family being exterminated, all the people in the room sighed.

"It is said that this is not poisonous and not a husband, but the emperor's heart is too poisonous."

"Isn't that right, Jingbian Hou's family is loyal, and he will kill him if he says so."

"If his heart was not poisonous, there would not be so many corrupt officials in this world, and the people would not suffer."

…………

The voices in the hall came and went, almost all of them were condemning the emperor. From the event of the extermination of the Yan family, to building dragon boats, building canals, and even to the tragic death of the Jingbianhou and his wife at Hanyang Pass, they were filled with righteous indignation and wished they could go to the palace right now. Carrying a knife and rushing into the palace of Luoyang, it was a joy to kill the emperor.

But even in such a fierce scene, Meng Chengye remained unmoved, drinking wine by himself.

Gu Junci looked sideways at him, seeing that he finally got a little drunk, then put down the wine glass in his hand, got up and exited the lively hall, and walked silently to the backyard, Gu Junci was a little puzzled, and hurriedly followed out .

Not long after that, the sound of the piano came from the backyard. The sound of the piano was melodious, and then turned sharply, like crying, and also like questioning with anger, as if it brought a strong wind and blown the fallen leaves.

Gu Junci stood at the corner, looking at the people visiting relatives in the gazebo, his back was lonely and full of sadness.He took off a leaf and put it on his lips, playing Meng Chengye's piano with a gentle tone.

After a long time, both of them stopped, and Meng Chengye said, "Come out."

Gu Junci walked up the corridor and walked towards Meng Chengye: "I just said why you don't want to hear the story of my twelfth brother. It turns out that you are also the person in his story."

Meng Chengye looked sideways at Gu Junci beside him: "What did you say?"

Gu Junci looked at the camellia on his forehead, which was so lifelike, if he didn't really love it, how could he embroider it so carefully.Perhaps the stunning Princess Xinrui that Yan Huai mentioned, with her amazing appearance and superb piano skills, should be Meng Chengye's relatives.

Meng Chengye stared straight at Gu Junci, his eyes were cold, and seemed to be hiding a bit of murderous intent.

Gu Junci didn't take it seriously, and sat down next to him, looking at the qin in Meng Chengye's hand, which was also carved with a camellia, with a graceful and graceful posture, which further confirmed Gu Junci's guess.

Gu Jun said: "I said that you don't want to hear the story of Brother Twelve because you are also the one who told the story."

Meng Chengye stared straight at him: "What nonsense are you talking about with just a few words?"

Gu Junci stretched out his hand to caress the camellia on the piano, but Meng Chengye moved it away. Gu Junci smiled:

"That Princess Xinrui must also love camellias very much, that's why you use camellias on the piano and on your forehead."

Meng Chengye's cold face all day long finally gradually cracked and shattered under Gu Junci's few words, revealing his hidden great anger: "What do you want to say!"
