Chapter 72 The Third Contract
Yunshang thought for a moment and didn't guess who she was talking about, so she asked, "Who are you talking about?" Why am I worth it? I haven't heard you mention it at all?"
"In fact, you also know this person I'm talking about." Gu Zitao seemed to be reluctant to mention this person's name. After a slight pause, she said, "It's Feng Zixiang."
"Feng Zixiang...Feng Zixiang... Ah, are you talking about Sister Zixiang?" After the name of this person flashed in Yunshang's mind several times, he finally figured out who the owner of the name was.
People who can be surnamed Feng, in this dynasty, must be just...
"She... What's the relationship between her and Feng Ziqi and Feng Ziqi?" Yunshang was already a little stunned.
Gu Zitao quickly covered her mouth and looked panicked. Yunshang opened her hand and spat on the ground, "Bah, what are you doing?"
"What am I doing? You are so bold, Yunshang. The people you just mentioned are all relatives of the emperor and your majesty's children. Gu Zitao snorted and leaned his back against the big stone next to the tree. "These people are all noble people born with golden spoons. They don't eat the sufferings of the world, let alone understand the joys and sorrows of our group."
It is said that decades ago, some people were killed by a whole family because of an anti-poem. More than a hundred people lost their heads overnight. Gu Zitao seems to be still holding an imper for those who died in vain.
Yunshang was surprised and said, "What is that? How can it be so widely involved?"
Gu Zitao shook his head and sighed, "I'm not very clear about what happened in the middle. It's just that this matter shocked the whole country in those years. In the end, I don't know who blocked the news. From then on, no one dares to bring up this matter again."
It turned out to be a headless public case. After listening to Gu Zitao's narration, Yunshang couldn't help but fall into meditation. In such a tragic murderous butcher case, I'm afraid that the only person who wants to seal and rigorously block the news will be the only one who can compare with the sky.
An anti-poetry.
Throughout the ages, how many literati and poets have been cut off their wise heads because of one word and one word, and how many people have come to the end of being cut off because of a sentence of unauthorized thinness?
When these things are mixed together, they are intertwined into a terrible and chilling idea.
What on earth completely angered the ruler at that time? What is the reason for the superior to make such a bloody decision?
Gu Zitao saw that Yunshang bowed his head and said no. He thought that his words scared her, but unexpectedly, Yunshang himself had raised his head and said to her, "Sister Gu, I'm sorry. I lied to you about what I said before."
"What?" The attitude of the opposite person turned 180 degrees, which caught Gu Zitao off guard.
"What lied to me?"
Maybe it's because of the other party's brilliance, or maybe it's because she's willing to say such a taboo topic for herself. Yunshang feels that it's really too much to hide something from her.
"Actually, the second prince and I have met for a long time." She thought about the wording and said, "The night of rescuing Lou Yun Ni, I met him in the cellar passage of the dark cage."
In the blink of an eye, everything that had happened that night was vivid in her mind.
She took a brave step, boldly estimated the second prince's intention, blatantly challenged his bottom line, and told him with silent actions that if you are willing to join hands with me, it must be a win-win situation.
The second prince, an extremely smart person, her intentions have long been revealed in front of his eyes.
As a result, Lou Yun Ni was able to survive.
However, she has reached a contract with the gloomy second prince that no third person knows.
Gu Zitao probably doesn't remember how he walked back. Until her maid Pearl came to serve her to bed, she was still in a daze.
"I rescued Lou Yunni with the help of the power of the second prince. First, my behavior will definitely attract the attention of the second prince and let him take the initiative to get close to me, so that I will have a half chance of winning when I enter the palace later. Second, it just makes Lou Yunni feel that she owes me a great favor. As for I've been hiding outside but didn't go in to stop the jailers beating her up because..."
"Because only in that case can I hear the truth I want to hear most. The truth about Lou Duo, about this court, about the core of power in the whole court. With this opportunity, I reached two agreements with the second prince. First, I let him hear the truth. He wants to save Lou Yunni. Second, he will help me go to the palace to study, and I want to help him more in the future and do my best. To put it bluntly, that is, to help him enter the position of crown prince.
When the man said these words in a low voice, Gu Zitao knew that his heart was silent with her low voice.
She used to be so naive that the poor little girl who had been far away from the capital since she was a child and was squeezed out of the house by the side room, she not only came back. Moreover, with such a gesture, she became completely different from when she was a child, became bold, scheming, and became...
It's elusive!
By the way, Gu Zitao smiled lightly. She never told Lou Yunshang that they actually knew each other when they were young.
It's just that now, she doesn't remember her anymore.
Her temperament and the way she speaks to people have changed a lot. She seems to be a stranger, but Gu Zitao is puzzled. If she forgets that she and her past can still speak for her, then how can she forget that in the age of horn's help, the second prince is true to her. Heart.
The night is gradually getting dark, and the starlight seems to be condensed in a place. The high and ethereal night sky seems to be able to carry all the thoughts, can accommodate all the unrest, and also melt all the purgatory, and the torment in the day is cooled and still at night.
In the yard, there are people leaning on the sloping railing alone, tasting a pot of light wine, and tasting cyan plums.
The plums were picked from the branches as soon as they were ripe, with a reluctant dry and sour taste. However, she didn't realize it. She put it in her mouth one by one. Occasionally, she didn't even use the glass. She directly picked up the wine pot and poured it into her mouth.
In this era, the environment is good, there is less pollution, there are many beautiful men, and there are no mistresses. In fact, it is a very good place, but this wine... can't be drunk no matter what.
"Traveling the moon in the sky, the little beauty of Yunshang is here drinking alone with the moon. Isn't it so comfortable!" A soft and boneless hand appeared on her shoulder. If she didn't look carefully, no one could see that the owner of this hand was actually a man.
However, Yunshang was used to it. She threw down her shoulder and threw away the annoying claws. "If you want to drink, go and get it yourself. Don't rob me."
The man smiled and really rudely picked up a pot of wine and sat beside her, but one hand was not honest on her waist intentionally or unintentionally.
Yunshang knew that this person was so thin, and he didn't bother to care about him. He ate plums and light wine by himself, which was so comfortable.
"You said so many sweet words to Gu Zitao during the day, and you are not afraid that she will betray you?" He didn't come to drink with her. He came to remind the little confused girl. Although he didn't know what she was going to do, judging from her posture, it was probably related to the court.
Gu Zitao's status is special. Her father is a Gu University scholar who is extremely influential to the government, and her friendship with Gu Zitao makes Lian Zhuan involuntarily think in other directions.
But if it's really like what he thinks, Lou Yunshang should not say that heartfelt words to Gu Zitao.
This little woman looks confused and doesn't care about everything. What is she doing?
After a sip of wine, Lian Zhun narrowed up a pair of peach blossom eyes to see her. Yun Shang had been drinking here for a long time. There was a little drunkenness on his face, but his mind was very clear. Seeing that Lian Zhun looked at himself like this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Didn't we have made an appointment for a long time? I take my Yangguan Road, you cross your single-plank bridge, and I If you don't ask about your intention to sneak into the building, you don't want to interfere in my affairs.
The essence in the peach blossom's eyes flashed. Lian Zhun shrugged his shoulders and said in a sullen voice, "But they really want to share your worries."
Yunshang's eyebrows involuntarily jumped a few times.
Lian Zhun smiled gloomyly, came forward, and almost said close to her body, "I said, how can the little beauty Yunshang be so straightforward to tell everything in her mind?"
Yunshang didn't agree and said, "Sister Gu is very kind to me. I can tell her some truth."
"Did you really tell her everything?" Lian Zhun pretended to be shocked. He held his chest with one hand, and his face was frightened with innocence. A pair of dangerous peach blossom eyes provoked a trace of evil charm and charm. Yunshang looked at him and said, "What's wrong with Lian Zhun's eyes today? Do you have a cramp?"
Lian Zhun's face suddenly turned cyan.
His so-called smile of a female or female creature who can be fascinated up to 80 years old and down to eight months old actually fell into... eyelid cramps in front of her?
Seeing that he had just had amorous feelings, and now he immediately turned into a plaster-like solidified appearance, which is really a great pleasure in life. Lou Yunshang couldn't help putting down the wine pot in his hand, holding his belly in one hand, pointing at him tremblingly with the other hand, laughing, "Cluck, Lian Zhun, what you look like now is simply... Haha, a statue! Ah, no, no, are you a terracotta warrior or a newly discovered sex servant!"
" Terracotta Warriors and Horses? What is it?" Lian Zhun curled her eyebrows and felt a little embarrassed. As a result, when she saw Lou Yunshang smiling like this, she was also infected by her smile and couldn't help bending the corners of her mouth. All right, all right, you can laugh as you want."
Yunshang laughed enough. He raised his sleeve and wiped the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, calmed his nerves and breath, and then regained his usual calmness and indifference. However, he continued what Lian Zhun had just said, nodded slightly, and solemnly said to Lian Zhun's eyes, "You really know me, Lian Zhun, I did make an agreement with the second prince not only on these two things. In addition to these two things, there is also a third agreement between me and him. When she said this, her eyes were not blurred with the girst of alcohol, but like a starlight.
Lian Zhun's heart moved. Naturally, he understood that the agreement with a character like the second prince Feng Zifeng was no longer as simple as an agreement. It was signed with a bright prince with darkness and would be bound for a lifetime.
