The first male queen [crossing]

When he returned to the inn, the Taoist priest hadn't come back yet.

After Gu Junci and Xiao Yuan went back to their room one after another, Gu Junci sneaked around from behind the window to outside the window of Xiao Yuan's room, and climbed into his room along the window.

"Why don't you go through the main entrance?" Xiao Yuan looked at Gu Junci who suddenly appeared, with a smile on his face.

Gu Junci patted the ashes on his clothes: "We didn't know each other when we lived in the inn. If I knock on your door, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of others."

Gu Junci said to himself, Xiao Yuan stared at him for a while and said:

"Have you seen this son-in-law of Luoyang?"

Gu Junci nodded: "I see, but he seems to have something to hide, and I don't know if it has something to do with Brother Xu and the others."

Xiao Yuan lowered his eyes and meditated. Hearing the sudden knock on the door outside the house, he carefully distinguished and determined that it was a signal between the Taoist priest and them. Then he got up and opened the door, and welcomed the Taoist priest into the room.

"The big thing is bad. General Yan and General Xu seem to be under house arrest."

The Taoist priest exclaimed as soon as he entered the room, but after seeing Xiao Yuan and Gu Jun resigning, he lowered his voice, bowed to Xiao Yuan, and said: "The poor Taoist went outside to inquire again before, carefully After inquiring, I found out that General Yan and the others did come to Luoyang years ago, but for some reason, after the Chinese New Year, they disappeared."

After Gu Junci took out Xu Yanqing's jade pendant from his arms and put it on the table: "Master Duan gave it to me. He said that Emperor Da'an didn't trust them enough and was more than suspicious. It was probably because he was worried that they would betray Luoyang. They're under house arrest."

"General Yan and the others are brave generals. Naturally, Wang Jianzhang wants to take them under his command. It's just that he is too suspicious, so he is afraid that General Yan and the others will switch to other places after leaving Luoyang, so he would rather put them under house arrest than let them go." Let them leave." Xiao Yuan frowned and couldn't help sighing.

The Taoist priest looked at Gu Junci in front of him, and asked, "What did the owner say?"

Gu Jun said: "He hopes that we can rescue Brother Xu and the others, but if we want to save Brother Xu and the others, it will definitely implicate Master Duan, because Brother Xu and the others must not be trusted by Emperor Daan. In addition, the princess is pregnant again, I really can't imagine how the Emperor Da'an will treat the owner Duan if the princess gives birth to a boy in the future."

The Taoist priest looked at Gu Junci's appearance, and the calm and calm smile that used to be immortal gradually dissipated, replaced by a look of worry and distress. He sat down at the table and said in a low voice:

"The owner of the villa is loyal and upright. He only does what he thinks is right. Back then in Poyun Villa, he was able to rob prison for the sake of his subordinates. Now, it is naturally impossible for him to look at Yan Yan. The general and the others suffered, not to mention, they are sworn brothers."

"At the beginning, in order to overthrow the faint king, we became brothers, and the poor Taoist was older and added to the position of eldest brother, but the matter between brothers was handled by the owner alone. At that time, he was unrestrained and fearless. , but now he is willing to serve under a villain like Wang Jianzhang as a general. There must be a real relationship between him and the princess. On the one hand is his wife and children, and on the other hand is his sworn brother. Nah."

Xiao Yuan stared sideways at Gu Junci for a while, and then said softly: "No matter how powerful a person has a weakness, he will hesitate, especially Duan Zhuangzhu is a loyal and upright person, I am afraid that Wang Jianzhang will also He often used his wife and children to blackmail him."

Gu Junci couldn't help but scratched his head: "It's too difficult. If we rescue Brother Xu, the Emperor Da'an must be suspicious of Zhuangzhu Duan."

"So we want to save people again, and we have to make it difficult for Zhuang Zhuan." Xiao Yuan said seriously.

The Taoist priest looked at Xu Yanqing's jade pendant carefully for a long while, still puzzled why Duan Yuntian gave the jade pendant to Gu Jun to resign, and what was the reason behind it.

Gu Junci thought for a moment, and then said: "I thought about following Master Duan to find the place where Brother Xu and the others were under house arrest, but now it seems that he can't visit Brother Xu and the others often, after all, Emperor Da'an will suspicious of him."

Holding the jade pendant, the Taoist priest took a closer sniff, frowned slightly, and then asked in surprise: "Why is there such a thick powdery smell on this jade pendant?"

Gu Junci didn't take it seriously: "I heard from Qingxuan that Brother Xu got married when he was in Fan Yang, and he was a girl from the Lu clan. I'm afraid it's her fragrance."

The Taoist priest looked solemn, shook his head and vetoed: "Farewell is not good, this smell is good, the powdery smell on Mrs. Xu's body is lighter, and the smell of this jade pendant is stronger. Besides, this jade pendant does not seem to belong to General Xu, but Zhuang Zhuang. Lord's."

Gu Junci was slightly stunned, but when he looked at the jade pendant carefully, he had seen the engraving on the jade pendant before, it was the family emblem of the Xu family in Yunzhong, how could it be Duan Yuntian's.

"Then why is this engraved pattern the family emblem of the Xu family in the cloud?" Xiao Yuan asked.

The Taoist quickly explained: "The Second Highness doesn't know that General Xu was rescued by Poyun Villa and taken care of by Mrs. Duan's sister, so he carved two identical jade pendants and gave them to Mrs. Duan and Mrs. Duan. At that time, he said that although the Xu family in Yunzhong was destroyed, he believed that one day the Xu family in Yunzhong would appear in the eyes of the world again, so he took the jade pendant as a token and would help the descendants of Zhuangzhu and Miss Duan throughout his life."

"So that's how it is." Gu Junci suddenly realized, "Then, what is the meaning of that jade pendant given by the owner of the villa."

The Taoist priest looked at the jade pendant carefully, his brows were furrowed, and he still couldn't understand why.

Xiao Yuan lowered his eyes and meditated for a while, then said: "Jun Ci, I wonder if you noticed that the last owner Duan looked back at Guose Tianxiang Garden before leaving."

Gu Junci recalled the previous situation. When Duan Yuntian came out of the back alley, he did look back at Guose Tianxiang Garden. Could it be related?

"The jade pendant he gave you in the back alley of the Guose Tianxiang Garden. Later, I looked back at the garden and thought about it carefully. The jade pendant is full of fat and powder. What kind of place is the backyard of this garden? I'm afraid Brother Xu They are under house arrest." Xiao Yuan said seriously.

Gu Junci suddenly realized, and carefully thought about all the things he encountered in the backyard today.

It stands to reason that a garden like Guose Tianxiang Garden, if there is such a place, should be extremely lively, and no one will be allowed to go there just because some son-in-law eats here.

Especially if you can't hear the slightest sizhu performance, Wang Jianzhang really knows how to come here, maybe Brother Xu and the others are hiding in the Guose Tianxiang Garden.

"Then I'm going to visit Guose Tianxiang Garden tonight." Gu Junci hurriedly got up and said.

Xiao Yuan grabbed him: "Don't worry, even if we are only [-]% sure, we should be fully prepared. If they are in the garden, we should rescue them and take them away from Luoyang."

The Taoist leader also said: "General Gu, don't startle the snake tonight. Let the poor Taoist arrange the follow-up matters first, and then investigate after midnight tomorrow night. After making sure everything is safe, we will strike again."

Seeing the two of them echoing their words, Gu Junci had no choice but to nod in response.

After sending off the Taoist priest, Xiao Yuan turned around and looked at Gu Junci: "You are just too impatient."

Gu Junci was puzzled: "Why do you say that?"

Xiao Yuan said: "It's good to have Wu Wu, and this Daoist also has his own way. It's much better for him to listen to him than you to take the risk to investigate."

Gu Junci: "That's right, A Yuan, you said metaphysics is really deep knowledge. Besides the Taoist master's deep research on this Qimen Dunjia, he can also help people read and predict characters. It’s very friendly, and it’s easy to find something.”

The corners of Xiao Yuan's lips raised slightly, he sipped his tea and said, "Don't go back to your room tonight."

Gu Junci was a little confused, and looked sideways at Xiao Yuan: "Why?"

"I have to guard you, lest you lose your composure and go to that garden tonight." Xiao Yuan looked back at him with a smile in his eyes.

Gu Junci's expression remained unchanged, he looked at it for a long time, and then he smiled and said: "All right, I will trust you this time."
