The steward of the palace of rebirth

Chapter 9 The Eyes Behind

As soon as I approached the accounting room, I heard the crackling sound of the abacus, obviously busy inside.

Gu Zhengqing quickly realized that the day after tomorrow is Mu Changfeng's birthday celebration, and there are a lot of things to buy in the house, and there are also many accounts to sort out.

Following Gu Huaisi into the door, Gu Zhengqing looked around, the sound of the abacus came from the hands of two accountants, both of them were very busy, and there was no time to look up, but there was another one with white eyebrows and hair in Confucian clothes The old man in a shirtless shirt was leaning on the rocking chair, squinting his eyes and pretending to sleep, holding a small teapot in one hand, with one foot raised, very contented.

Gu Zhengqing almost laughed out loud, and quickly lowered his head and coughed lightly.

He knew this old man, he was the accountant's steward of money, and he had dealt with him a lot in his previous life, speaking of which, he could be considered a strange person in the Mausoleum Palace.Although his beard and hair are all white, his complexion is very good, his eyes are piercing, his body is stronger than anyone else, and his movements are like the wind. Sometimes he disappears quietly or suddenly appears behind you, so Gu Zhengqing thinks that the accountant must be someone A man with strong martial arts and hidden secrets.Also, Gu Zhengqing worked in the palace for three years in his previous life, but he didn't know anything about Guanshi Qian's identity. When he asked other people in the palace, they all looked confused, even Gu Huaisi didn't seem to know the details.

However, this mysterious manager Qian is also one of Mu Changfeng's most trusted people.

"Old Gu," Guanshi Qian heard Gu Zhengqing's light cough, opened his eyes and saw that it was Gu Huaisi who greeted him, then looked at Gu Zhengqing, happy, "Yo, young old Gu."

"My servant, Gu Zhengqing, has met Guanshi Qian." Gu Zhengqing saluted.

"Your son?" Guanshi Qian got up from the recliner, looked at Gu Zhengqing and asked Gu Huaisi.

The two people who were busy at the side couldn't help but stop what they were doing after hearing this, and looked at it curiously.

"It's the little boy, the prince just agreed to work in the mansion, so bring him here to get acquainted." Gu Huaisi nodded.

"You look like an honest boy, and you look like a talented person. Why don't you think about running away from your father's work? Your father is rigid and serious. If you suffer, you might as well come to me to settle the score. Come, eat lychee." Qian Guanshi said While stuffing all the lychees on the table to Gu Zhengqing.

"Thank you, Manager Qian." Gu Zhengqing was hugged by a bunch of lychees stuffed into his head, while secretly looking at his father's dark complexion, he smiled secretly.

"What a good boy." Qian Guanshi said.

Gu Zhengqing's small eyes were caught by Guanshi Qian. When he was happy, he would raise his hand to pat Gu Zhengqing's head. He raised his hand to the top of Gu Zhengqing's head, but suddenly froze, paused and then retracted it, with a strange expression on his face. He gave a low cough.

Gu Zhengqing was wondering, but Gu Huaisi had already said goodbye.

"Let's go, let's go, go with your father, you can come to my place anytime you decide." Manager Qian waved his hand to Gu Zhengqing, and then lay back on his chair, squinted his eyes and fell asleep.

Gu Zhengqing bid farewell politely, and quickly followed Gu Huaisi with a pile of lychees.

When the father and son walked away, Guanshi Qian squinted his eyes and looked at a certain point outside, and suddenly he laughed a few times, "This little Gu is not simple."

The two people who were busy next to him couldn't help but glanced at him curiously. They were pricking up their ears to hear the follow-up, but they saw the old man closed his eyes and fell asleep again. The two looked at each other and said nothing more. He bowed his head and continued to work.

And Gu Zhengqing was holding a pile of lychees and didn't know what to do, when he saw two beautiful figures in front of him, one in front and one behind, one blue and one pink, both beautiful.

"Housekeeper." Seeing Gu Huaisi, the two beauties bowed in half-bow, and the elegant woman in a blue dress called.

Gu Huaisi nodded, "Miss Qingwu."

"Who is this?" The blue-clothed Qingwu girl looked curiously at the young man who had a three-point imagination with Gu Huaisi, remembered the rumors of the past two days, and smiled, "Little Master Gu."

"I'm next, Gu Zhengqing." Gu Zhengqing hugged a pile of lychees, and he was a little embarrassed when he greeted him, his face flushed slightly.

Seeing this, Qingwu couldn't help laughing, "Why don't you pretend to be something?"

"It was given by Manager Qian, and I didn't have time to find something to put it on." Gu Zhengqing smiled helplessly.

"Give it to me if you don't mind. I happened to go to the sundry room. I took a basket and put it in a basket for a while so that someone could send it to your yard." Qingwu said.

Gu Zhengqing's eyes lit up, "Thank you, Miss Qingwu, you don't have to bother to give me the yard. Girl, let's take it for everyone to eat. I am going to meet everyone with my father."

"That's good too." Qing Wu smiled, reaching out to take the pile of lychees from Gu Zhengqing's arms.

Gu Zhengqing was worried that it would fall out, so he let it go carefully, at this time the two of them would inevitably come into contact with each other.

It was fine at first, but Qingwu suddenly felt cold, as if being stared at by someone, froze for a moment, looked around vigilantly, but found nothing, and frowned suspiciously.

"What's the matter?" Gu Zhengqing gave her the lychee, seeing her frowning, he hurriedly asked.

Qingwu loosened her brows and smiled gently, "It's okay, then you and the housekeeper go there first, and Huayue and I will be here in a while."

Gu Zhengqing hurriedly thanked him again, and sent Qingwu and Huayue away.

"Miss Qingwu is the big maid in the mansion. There are quite a few maids in the mansion. Miss Qingwu handles many matters that I am inconvenient to face. In the future, you will have to deal with Miss Qingwu when you are with the prince." Gu Huaisi said in the Road on the side.

Gu Zhengqing nodded, "Yes, my son understands, and will get along well with Miss Qingwu."

Gu Huaisi nodded, raised his foot and continued to move forward.

Gu Zhengqing followed.Of course, he also knows Qingwu. In the last two years of his previous life in the palace, he had many colleagues.

At this moment, Gu Zhengqing suddenly felt that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at him from behind, and subconsciously turned around to look at him, but he didn't see anything, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Is it an illusion?Gu Zhengqing shook his head and continued walking.

When Gu Zhengqing walked away, a tall and silent figure stepped out from a corner of the cover, his eyes followed Gu Zhengqing closely, and there was only the shadow of a person in front of his eyes, which were as calm as a deep pool.

Seeing that Gu Zhengqing's figure was almost out of sight, the person moved and disappeared in place. In the distance, only a few phantoms swayed past, and they had already followed the direction Gu Zhengqing left.
