The traitor has a white moonlight

Chapter 99 Double Letters

When Gu Huaisheng woke up the next day, Zhao Yue had already left. If the other party hadn't deliberately put the belt jade buckle on the bedside, Gu Huaisheng would have suspected it was a dream.

Rubbing his swollen temples, Gu Huaisheng didn't ask anyone to come in, went down to open the window, stared out of the window for a while, then turned around and walked back to the desk, picked up the letter and laughed.

"Master, are you up?" Just as Gu Huaisheng put away the letter, Guo Ke'er pushed the door and walked in with the washing things: "The prince said, the young master has slept for so long, it's not good to stay in the house, you have to go out and walk around, He also specially ordered the kitchen to stew ginkgo black chicken soup, and after washing in a while, the young master can go to the dining hall to use it, and no one will send it here."

"Why ginkgo and black chicken soup?" Gu Huaisheng's eyebrows twitched: "Isn't that used by pregnant women to nourish their bodies?"

"Who stipulates that only pregnant women must nourish their bodies?" Guo Ke'er was speechless: "Young master has both qi and blood deficiency, and it's good to mend it. Elderly people also eat this, and I have never seen anyone who hates it like you."

Gu Huaisheng clicked his tongue, and didn't bother to argue with him, he just said: "There's no need for the chicken soup, it's getting late, I have to pack it up and rush to the yamen, yesterday it was delayed all day, at this juncture, it's not good to look like this."

"Oh." Guo Ke'er waited for Gu Huaisheng to wash, and said, "Then take the carriage and eat it. The young masters on the left and right have always been like this, so don't get in the way." Stewed, ginkgo is a local product he brought back from Tongyang Pass."

Gu Huaisheng paused for a moment, and immediately changed his words: "Then let's take it with you." After a while, he remembered to ask: "Does anyone else in the mansion know about King Xing?"

"I don't know." Guo Ke'er shook his head: "He has a disguise, and only the servant and Uncle Yuan know about it."

Gu Huaisheng nodded reassuringly: "That's good."

When Gu Huaisheng arrived at the Ministry of Officials, there were not many people. The main reason was that the national funeral was imminent, and those who were of high grade had to enter the palace. However, those who were below the third grade, they could kneel down once that day, and then they could steal leisurely. It was only relative, and the things at hand Also aggravated a lot.

Everyone was so busy that no one noticed when Gu Huaisheng entered the door.He was also happy and at ease, walked to his seat and sat down, busy with his own work.

This pile of official documents is really endless. Gu Huaisheng, like everyone else, didn't bother to have a serious meal at noon, so he just swallowed a few mouthfuls of snacks to make do.

It wasn't until night fell that everyone finally calmed down.

Gu Huaisheng stretched and got up, and was about to leave when he was stopped by a colleague behind him.

"I heard that Mr. Gu was sick again yesterday. I thought it would take a few days to see it without talking, but I didn't expect to come today. Is your health better?"

Hearing this, Gu Huaisheng turned around to look, and found that he was a middle-aged man who had little contact with each other, and was even a bit unfamiliar.This person is slightly fat, with a gentle face and smiles in his eyes. He looks like a person with long sleeves, good at dancing, and very good at meeting.

Gu Huaisheng has always disliked dealing with such people. He prefers Xiao Chuanyong's vicious and ruthless face to the kind-hearted one. It is easy to deal with and does not require too much effort.

"Hey, my body is just like this. I get used to a serious illness for ten days and a small illness for three days. A little cold is nothing." Thinking about it in his heart, Gu Huaisheng didn't show it on his face, and bowed his hands: "This one My lord looks at Miansheng, but I don't know how to address him?"

"My surname is Gao, my style name is Yuanshan, and my single name is Chong." Gao Chong bowed his hand in return.

"So it's Mr. Gao, sorry for your disrespect." Gu Huaisheng agreed, but actually he didn't have any impression in his mind.

The two walked out of the official gate together, Gu Huaisheng glanced at the carriage parked opposite, and was about to say goodbye to Gao Chong, but was stopped by the other party first.

"Master Gao, who is this?" Gu Huaisheng was stopped for a moment, his eyes moved up along Gao Chong's arm, and landed on Gao Chong's face, his brows were raised slightly.

"Master Gu." Gao Chong looked around and made sure there was no one else, then he took out a letter and stuffed it into Gu Huaisheng's hand: "This is entrusted by a virtuous nephew, and must be handed over to Master Gu. You just accept it." alright."

"I don't know who is Mr. Gao's nephew?" Gu Huaisheng looked at the letter in his hand, and put it in his sleeve without any hesitation.

"Master Gu will understand after reading it." Gao Chong didn't say a word of nonsense, bid farewell to Gu Huaisheng, and immediately left without looking back.

Gu Huaisheng watched Gao Chong go far away, then he raised his doubts, brushed off his cuffs, and crossed the street into the carriage.Fang sat firmly, and immediately took out the letter, but after only one glance, his face changed suddenly, and he rubbed the letter into his palm suddenly.

"Go to the scholar's mansion!" Gu Huaisheng took a deep breath, turned around and shouted at the coachman.

The coachman didn't ask any more questions, he only answered, then obeyed the order, and drove the carriage straight to the scholar's residence.

……

"Master Sheng, the scholar's residence is here."

Hearing the sound, without waiting for the coachman to stop the carriage, Gu Huaisheng hurriedly got out of the carriage, rushed up the steps in a few steps, and began knocking on the door with the buckle.

The concierge opened the door and was stunned when he saw Gu Huaisheng, but he didn't stop him, and let the person enter the door sideways.

"What wind brought Mr. Gu here?" The concierge looked at Gu Huaisheng's face, and stopped joking in time: "Mr. Gu, what happened to you?"

Gu Huaisheng did not respond to the porter, but asked in a deep voice: "Brother Qiu, is the teacher there?"

"Here." The porter was stunned and said.

Gu Huaisheng nodded, and strode away towards the main courtyard of the Jiang family.

When Gu Huaisheng arrived, Jiang Zheng was in the yard, doing Tai Chi with a bunt all over his body. When he saw Gu Huaisheng enter the door, he didn't stop him, and he didn't even look at him.Gu Huaisheng is just Jiang Zheng's temper, so although he was anxious, he suppressed his thoughts and didn't bother him. He waited until Jiang Zheng finished punching and closed his hand gestures. Then he took the sweat towel from the servant girl and handed it over to him with both hands. .

"Coming?" Jiang Zheng glanced at Gu Huaisheng, and wiped his sweat.

"Yeah." Gu Huaisheng nodded, "You didn't disturb the teacher, did you?"

"Don't bother." Jiang Zheng shook the sweat-washed towel over his shoulders very down-to-earth, and walked into the house while putting down his sleeves: "Go in and talk."

"Yes." Gu Huaisheng replied, followed Jiang Zheng into the house.

After Jiang Zheng entered the room, he didn't ask his servants to wait for him to change his clothes. After the tea was made, he waved all the people out, and just stretched out his hand to signal Gu Huaisheng to sit down.

The two sat cross-legged in front of the tea table, and Jiang Zheng clenched his fist and knocked on his knee before asking, "Tell me, what happened suddenly?"

Gu Huaisheng raised his hand to salute Jiang Zheng, then took out the crumpled letter and handed it over with both hands: "Teacher, please have a look."

Jiang Zheng glanced at Gu Huaisheng before reaching out to take the letter.

Like Gu Huaisheng, Jiang Zheng frowned after reading the letter.

"Who gave you this letter?" Jiang Zheng read it all at once, then raised his head to look at Gu Huaisheng, his tone slightly lowered.

"Gao Chong from the official department. I haven't seen him before. He must have just entered the official department not long ago. The students haven't paid attention to him before, so I don't have a good impression of him." Gu Huaisheng looked at Jiang Zheng's face: "What do you think of the letter? ?”

"If what is said in the letter is true..." Jiang Zheng stroked his beard: "This matter must be handled with caution, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Gu Huaisheng nodded, fixed his eyes on Jiang Zheng, and waited for the next sentence.

"There's also that nobility." Jiang Zheng looked at Gu Huaisheng: "It doesn't matter whether this person is an enemy or a friend..."

While Jiang Zheng was talking, he was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door. The master and apprentice looked at each other and stopped talking consciously.

Pretending to be leisurely, Gu Huaisheng picked up the teacup in front of him to drink tea, and only turned his head slightly when someone came in.It was none other than Jiang Zheng's third son, Jiang Heng, who entered uninvited, and Jiang Heng was following behind...

Gu Huaisheng was so startled that he almost knocked over his teacup when he saw the person coming in right behind Jiang Heng, but when he came back to his senses, he was speechless.

That's right, the man in a black cloak who followed Jiang Heng into the door was Zhao Yue who left in the morning.

"My lord..." Gu Huaisheng looked at Jiang Zheng, then at Jiang Heng. Before Jiang Zheng could speak, Jiang Heng retreated consciously and closed the door. Gu Huaisheng waited for the door to close before asking: " Why is the prince back?" You know, although Lincheng is not far from the capital, it takes two hours to go back and forth.

Zhao Yue didn't respond to Gu Huaisheng, but he blinked at him, then walked up to Jiang Zheng, bowed his hands and saluted: "Teacher."

"You don't need to be polite, King Xing, please sit down." Jiang Zheng gestured, and when Zhao Yue sat down, he was ready to make tea, but Gu Huaisheng preempted him as soon as he stretched out his hand.

"I'll come." Gu Huaisheng smiled at the two of them, quickly made a cup of tea for Zhao Yue, put the cup in front of him, and then asked: "My lord suddenly came back at this time, but something happened in Lincheng." What happened?"

Zhao Yue shook his head, turned to look at Jiang Zhengdao: "I came back specially to see the teacher."

Gu Huaisheng blinked in wonder, then turned to look at Jiang Zheng.

Then he listened to Jiang Zhengdao: "Please speak, King Xing."

As a result, Zhao Yue also took out a letter and handed it over: "Teacher, please read."

"A letter?" Gu Huaisheng and Jiang looked at each other face to face, their expressions suddenly became serious, and they turned to ask Zhao Yue: "My lord, how did you get this letter?"

"A beggar was handed over to the subordinate, and then the subordinate handed it over to me." Zhao Yue keenly felt that the expressions of the two were not right, and after a pause, he asked: "Xin, what's wrong?"

Gu Huaisheng looked at the letter in Zhao Yue's hand. He was not sure whether the contents of the two letters were the same, and whether they were written by the same person, but judging from the vermilion lacquer handwriting on the envelope, it should be the same person. The six-petal lotus in the corner is exactly the same.

But before Gu Huaisheng could speak, Jiang Zheng picked up the letter that Gu Huaisheng had handed just now, compared it for a while, put it back on the table, pressed it with two fingers, and pushed it in front of Zhao Yue.

Zhao Yue followed Jiang Zheng's movements and lowered his head, his eyes froze when he saw the envelope.

Gu Huaisheng said: "This letter was given to me by someone outside the official department when I was in the office. Judging from the handwriting and the pattern on the lower left corner, it should be written by one person."
