That's right, I'm the girl who hides in the golden house

=======================

Huo Yunchao really underestimated the guts of the people of Gubeikou, they really didn't dare to hold a lantern festival.

It was still early in the day, and Qing Tianliang was still sleeping in his room. Huo Yunchao told Zuo Ye to prepare in a cold voice. He didn't care what to prepare, how to prepare, and what methods to use. Knowing that this lantern meeting was forced by him.

Zuo Ye took the order to retreat.

Huo Yunchao was actually not very calm, the closer he got to Zhengyang, the more anxious he became. He could see that Qing Tianliang didn't want him to fight for the throne.

He already hinted at some things clearly, Huo Yunchao knew that Qing Tianliang could guess, but Qing Tianliang didn't want to face it, which made him feel a little troublesome.

They did so many things behind the scenes, none of them had any sympathy with Qing Tianliang, and none of them asked Qing Tianliang's opinion on any matter. They used the name of "for his own good" and presumptuously wanted to promote him to a high position. But it never occurred to him whether he would like it or not.

Huo Yunchao stretched out his hand to press his leg, Qing Tianliang pushed open the door and stretched, stepped down and looked around, and asked, "Is there anything to eat, I'm so hungry."

Huo Yunchao pointed to the gazebo: "It's still hot early."

Qing Tianliang ran over, took a steamed bun, put it in his mouth and gnawed it.

Huo Yunchao sat and looked at him, without saying a word, with a solemn expression, Qing Tianliang turned his head while eating, his cheeks were bulging, like a hamster hoarding food.

Huo Yunchao wanted to talk to him about something serious, but his mood was interrupted by his stupid appearance, and he suddenly felt that he was amused. He actually wanted to ask Qing Tianliang for his opinion. Could it be that Qing Tianliang was unwilling to give up the plan he had planned for more than ten years? ?

Huo Yunchao shook his head, giving up the idea of ​​talking to Qing Tianliang, and said: "The lantern festival only starts at night, is there any place you want to go during the day? Don't stay in the house all day, what does it look like."

If Qing Tianliang knew that Huo Yunchao had wavered at this moment, he would never eat this breakfast.

Qing Tianliang looked at the weather and said, "Yes, I want to climb a mountain. When I entered Gubeikou, I saw a mountain to the west of the city. There are some temples built on it. Can I go and see it?"

Climbing, he couldn't go, Qing Tianliang didn't want him to follow, Huo Yunchao was a little bit disappointed, but still nodded with a smile: "Yes, I will let Kuang Rong follow you."

Qing Tianliang quickly waved his hands and said, "Forget about Kuang Rong, use your shadow guards, are they there?"

After arriving in Chishui, Huo Yunchao summoned the shadow guards to his side, and now they are naturally there.

Huo Yunchao raised his hand and hooked his fingers twice, and two shadow guards suddenly appeared.

Qing Tianliang looked them around with his eyes and was very satisfied: "That's right, it looks like a person with strong martial arts. Don't worry, I'll be back after playing."

Huo Yunchao looked straight at him, and said, "Come back early, and I'll take you to a restaurant for dinner tonight."

Qing Tianliang grinned, picked up the warm millet porridge, finished it as quickly as drinking water, took out the prepared handkerchief and wiped his mouth, clapped his hands, and said "goodbye" to Huo Yunchao in a good mood go out.

Huo Yunchao looked at the direction where Qing Tianliang was leaving, and waved again. A shadow guard appeared, and Huo Yunchao asked, "Who did you see when I was away?"

The shadow guard replied, the young master is wandering around the yard when he is free, and he has met all the servants and maidservants in the yard.

Huo Yunchao lowered his eyes slightly, he knew that Gong Qingming was good at disguise, that man separated from them in Banchengpo, and now he came back, maybe the Gong family did something else.

The Gong family only obeyed the monarch of the Great Jia Kingdom. Before he was able to mobilize Gong Qingming to handle affairs, it should be Huo Bing who agreed. It should be that if he needs it during the war, the Gong family must cooperate.

After the battle, Gong Qingming retired. Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the palace, Gong Qingming reappeared. It is estimated that Huo Bing had arranged a task for them before his death and asked them to act at this time.

Huo Bing didn't trust anyone, including him. Huo Yunchao could see these things clearly in his heart, but he also had a bottom line, and hoped that Huo Bing wouldn't push himself even further after his death.

Qing Tianliang didn't want to hide it from Huo Yunchao, so he took the shadow guard to the appointment openly and met Gong Qingming in a meditation room in Xishan Temple.

Gong Qingming didn't change his face. He had long and narrow eyes with double eyelids, a high nose bridge, broad brows, flirtatious lips, and a tall figure. Qing Tianliang expressed his envy for such a good-looking man full of masculinity.

Gong Qingming faced Qing Tianliang's scrutiny with a smile, and when he saw that he was done sizing up, he said politely: "Can you two wait outside?"

Refers to the shadow guard behind Qing Tianliang.

Qing Tianliang took a few glances into the meditation room and said, "There won't be any danger, right?"

Gong Qingming smiled and said: "I am in danger, don't be shy, the old man has been waiting for you for a long time."

Qing Tianliang signaled the shadow guard to wait outside the house, saying that he would pay attention, and would call for help if something happened to him, but the shadow guard didn't say much after getting the guarantee, and stood guard at the door.

After Qing Tianliang entered, Gong Qingming closed the door, turned around and introduced: "This is Mr. Gong, the head of the Gong clan. You have seen this one before. My uncle, Gong Fei."

Old Man Gong was sitting on the couch, his face looked very kind, but his aura was not angry and majestic, which made Qing Tianliang unable to feel a sense of intimacy.

Gong Fei was fine, similar to Gong Qingming, but much softer and pleasing to the eye than Gong Qingming. It's just that such a gentle person has been undercover in the enemy's military camp for many years, so it's not easy.

Qing Tianliang didn't know why they were looking for him, but yesterday Gong Qingming came to see him in disguise and told him to come here today, and don't let Huo Yunchao know.

Qing Tianliang couldn't resist his curiosity, but he brought Huo Yunchao's people. Fortunately, Gong Qingming didn't say anything.

Qing Tianliang greeted the two elders of Gong's family one by one, and called Mr. Gong: "Master Gong."

Old Man Gong smiled and said, "You're welcome, you can call me Grandpa just like Qingming."

Qing Tianliang said honestly: "But Gong Qingming always calls you old man."

Gong Qingming's eyes widened immediately and he wanted to argue, but old man Gong gave him a sideways glance, and he shrank his head back like a quail, and stood aside aggrieved and silent.

Qing Tianliang secretly rejoiced, raised his eyes and looked at Old Man Gong obediently: "Is there something wrong with Grandpa Gong asking me to come?"

Mr. Gong looked him up and down, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's not easy to look so good. How is your body feeling recently? I heard that you fell into the river and froze stupidly. Is your mind still clear now?"

Qing Tianliang kept smiling, and after a while, he answered: "The body is fine, and the mind is clear, there is nothing wrong with it."

Sure enough, it's not that the whole family doesn't come into the house. Qing Tianliang can be sure that Mr. Gong and Gong Qingming are relatives.

The corner of Gong Qingming's mouth curled up behind the station, Grandpa Xie had no intention of avenging him.

Gong Fei said: "You are already afraid of the cold, don't take it easy just because you are young."

Qing Tianliang wondered, why do these people care more about him than his parents?

Probably seeing Qing Tianliang's surprise, Old Master Gong asked him to sit, and Gong Fei immediately got up to make room for him, which flattered Qing Tianliang, and hurriedly said: "No need, you sit, I'll just stand."

Gong Fei smiled and sat on the inside side of the person, while he sat down on the outside, poured him a cup of hot tea himself, and said, "Everyone sit together, what do you think?"

Qing Tianliang glanced at Gong Qingming who was still standing, nodded and bowed to thank Gong Fei for the tea, fidgeting restlessly.

Mr. Gong said: "Your grandfather and I have been friends for many years. I called you here today because I want to meet you formally. I plan to put Qingming by your side to help you. You can tell him what you need. If he doesn't help you Do it, you just come to me."

How capable the Gong family is, Qing Tianliang and Gong Qingming have been together for so long, it is impossible not to understand, not to mention that it is obviously not normal for an heir of the Gong family like Gong Qingming to be his assistant.

Qing Tianliang put down his teacup, sat on the futon, looked at Mr. Gong seriously, and said, "My grandfather, is his surname Du?"

Grandpa Gong smiled and shook his head.

Qing Tianliang's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, his mother's name was Du Qingrong, the concubine's aunt was Du Qingfu, and his grandfather's surname was not Du, which showed that if he didn't have a clue, then he would have lived so much in vain.

Qing Tianliang regretted going to the appointment. Curiosity really killed the cat. He lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, and said, "Then you may have misidentified the person. My grandfather's surname is Du."

Mr. Gong said: "No..."

"That's right," Qing Tianliang interrupted Mr. Gong, raised his eyes to look at him, and said word by word, "My surname is Du. I only have one grandfather, and he died before we met. My mother is Du Qingrong, my noble concubine. My aunt's name is Du Qingfu, so their surname is Du."

Old Man Gong exchanged glances with Gong Fei and Gong Qingming, and Gong Qingming's expression turned serious, and he said, "Don't worry, Grandpa is an old man, so please be considerate of him."

Probably no one has ever dared to interrupt old man Gong. Qing Tianliang knew from Gong Qingming's attitude of respecting old man Gong that he might have lost his composure, so he got up and knelt down on the futon, and respectfully saluted him: "I'm sorry, junior. I also invite Haihan, the master of Gong, to apologize to you, junior."

Mr. Gong was at a loss for words for a while. He didn't care much about Qing Tianliang's rudeness, but he was surprised by Qing Tianliang's rejection. Judging by Qing Tianliang's reaction, he should have guessed something, but now he is almost in Zhengyang, why did he Still rejecting knowing his life experience?

Gong Fei received the sight of Mr. Gong, and didn't know how to deal with this situation, so he could only try to ask: "You... What are your plans for entering Zhengyang this time?"

Qing Tianliang said: "Going out to fight for two years has wasted your studies. This time, you should continue your studies in Zhengyang, try to stand out in the next scientific examination, find a part-time official position, and advise Dajia Kingdom and His Majesty."

This plan really exceeded their expectations, Mr. Gong was not prepared to deal with this situation, so he remained silent.

Qing Tianliang clenched his fists, apologized, got up from the couch and got off the ground, stood in front of the couch and saluted: "If there is nothing to do and let this junior retire, this junior has made an appointment with someone for dinner, and I don't want to break my promise to him, Gong Qingming Waiting for the talents to forgive the younger generation for having no blessings, and I ask Master Gong to consider it before making a decision."

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, but in the next second, Gong Qingming pressed his shoulders and controlled him on the spot. Gong Qingming looked at Old Man Gong, and Qing Tianliang also looked at Old Man Gong.

Mr. Gong pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Did that kid Huo Yunchao tell you something? Is it because of him that you are so repelled?"

Qing Tianliang frowned: "What does this have to do with him?"

Old Man Gong was noncommittal, took a deep look at Qing Tianliang, and waved his hand. Gong Qingming let go of the hand on Qing Tianliang's shoulder, and took a half step back.

Grandpa Gong said: "It's nothing, you take this thing first, it's your grandfather's relic."

Old Man Gong picked up a long box from the side and handed it to Qing Tianliang, Qing Tianliang hesitated for a moment before taking it.

"Excuse me, can I go?" Qing Tianliang asked.

Mr. Gong nodded: "Of course, but I'd better go with you during Qingming."

As for whether to assist or monitor, only the Gong family knows.

Qing Tianliang knew that if he did not let Gong Qingming follow him, he would not be able to leave the monastery, so he had no choice but to agree.

Seeing that Qing Tianliang didn't object, Mr. Gong picked up the teacup and drank it by himself. Gong Qingming said that the younger generation would leave. Qing Tianliang realized that he could leave, so he walked out behind Gong Qingming.

The shadow guard followed, and the four of them went down the mountain without looking back.

Mr. Gong asked Gong Fei, "What do you think about this matter?"

Gong Fei said: "We should send someone to investigate first, if someone is blocking his footsteps, then it will be no problem to remove the obstacle."

Mr. Gong nodded: "You can handle this matter. I'm afraid that child Qingming has made friends with the young master. I didn't tell you if I have something to hide from you."

Gong Fei nodded and said yes, the two got up and left after sitting for a long time.

Qing Tianliang walked down the mountain angrily all the way, and Gong Qingming followed behind him without blushing or panting. He was also very embarrassed. According to their expectations, it was a happy event for everyone to call Qing Tianliang today. How could he play? into this situation?

Qing Tianliang walked to the small stream at the foot of the mountain, his cheeks dripping with sweat, he casually put the long box on the ground, scooped up the water with both hands and washed his face.

Gong Qingming endured it, but he couldn't hold it back, and reminded: "The box contains a painting, don't get wet."

Qing Tianliang paused, and finally wiped the water off his face and hands with the hem of his clothes, picked up the box and opened it.

There was indeed a scroll of painting inside, Qing Tianliang took out the painting, handed the box to the shadow guard, untied the red string on the scroll with a bit of carelessness, pulled it up and down lightly, and the scroll unfolded in front of everyone.

There was a woman in the painting. She was so beautiful that it was not in the world. The moment Qing Tianliang saw the woman's face, his pupils dilated suddenly, and his shock flashed. This person... looks too much like him.
