The former glory of the prime minister's office is no longer there. Now the new prime minister's office is only two blocks away. Just passing by, we can see some door guests who want to visit. They are like a city. They are unwilling to cover up even in this mess.
When I came to the old mansion, the plaque of the prime minister's mansion had been removed. The plaque on it had two big characters of the Zhou mansion. There were many weeds at the root of the wall.
Zhang Liangshan takes her to find the owner of the house. An old man who lives on selling wine for more than half a hundred years, after listening to Gu Mingyan's intention, glances at her: "little girl, this house doesn't even want to live in my husband's house. Why do you want to buy it at a high price?"
"This is the cheapest and most cost-effective house in Tianyan city." Gu Mingyan handed his wallet to the old man from under his black robe, and was shocked not to see his son and daughter's face behind the old man.
The old man is cautious: "little girl does not know the height of the earth."
"I know what this house is. Thank you for your dissuasion." Gu Mingyan slightly bowed his hand and inadvertently let the old man see a pair of gray eyes. Zhang Liangshan helped her to pull down the brim of her hat and pick up her eyebrows: "you can offer me a price."
"If anything happens, I have nothing to do with it." The old man opened the money bag and picked it up, looked at the geometry of the silver note carefully, and handed it back: "I don't want the silver note, I want the real gold and silver."
"Bring it in." Gu Mingyan was ready to let people come in with boxes of gold and silver.
The old man's children opened their mouths one after another, but the old man looked at her carefully, lowered his voice and said, "little girl, you go with me."
"I'm blind. If I don't follow others, I'm afraid I will..."
"There is a secret in this mansion. I have to see if I can tell you." The old man stood up trembling on crutches, Gu Mingyan hesitated for a moment, or he let go of Zhang Liangshan's arm, stepped forward, gently grabbed the old man's corner, and looked at him: "old man, we have seen before?"
"Although you haven't seen me, I'm the only old acquaintance of your grandfather in Yancheng this day." The old man's voice was soft, but his eyes looked at the face under the black robe: "you used to be, but no one in the Yancheng city didn't know that. Now you are in such a state that you still want to think about the past?"
Slightly open mouth, Gu Mingyan heart slightly sink.
It never occurred to her that her grandfather had an old acquaintance in Tianyan city. She had never heard of it. Half believe and half doubt,
as like as two peas in the old house, he came to the study. He felt that this decoration was the same as his grandfather's cloud, and the layout of Qingyang house was different. The ink and paper ink inkstone was different, but the location was almost exactly alike.
Gu Mingyan walked slowly through the room, or took off the black robe on his head: "when did my grandfather come to Tianyan city?"
"You should ask me when your grandfather and I came." The old man sat on the bench beside him tremblingly, which was different from yunqingyang's strong body. As long as he looked carefully at the old man in front of him, he could see that there were many scars left on his legs. He would not walk up and down, and he would be premature.
"It's a coincidence, not a danger." Gu Mingyan suddenly thought of the people he saw in the front hall.
The old man looked at her strangely, and immediately waved his hand: "what danger can I have? I just want to tell you something old. If I don't see your face just now, I'm afraid that he and your mother want to bury it in the earth."
"My mother and my grandfather, there is something to hide from me?" Gu Mingyan did not understand and pointed to himself.
"When I came to canglantianyan city with your grandfather, I was young and vigorous. Later, I fell in love with the first Kabuki of that year. It's a pity that I didn't get her heart, but I let your grandfather take the lead, and then I started some business in the city. When I was in my thirties, I sold the house I bought so hard to sell to Gu Cheng." The old man opened his mouth, but he couldn't help sighing when he talked about the old things. He said: "after that, when you became a family with a good girl, you shouldn't have been in charge of your grandfather and your mother's affairs. But when your mother got to know the younger ones, she sent them to me for a while."
"Young?" Gu Mingyan frowns. She doesn't remember anything about her mother. Naturally, she doesn't remember whether her mother mentioned a friend.
"It's just that I'm a little younger. I can't remember what it's called. Later, it seems that I was sent to the imperial palace. After that, there's no news. Your mother later married Gu Cheng, and it's all over." When the old man opened his mouth, he reached under the table with his other hand, pulled something gently and pulled out a bamboo tube.
He put the bamboo tube in his hand, and then he said, "your mother's little friend left the palace one day and put this thing in my hand for safekeeping. After your mother married, she saw it. At that time, she seemed to say something..."
That bamboo tube looks like a long time. Gu Mingyan clenches his fingertips and waits for an answer.
After a while, the old man whispered: "she said, this is a trap And the dead are not worth it. "
"Have you seen it, old man?" Gu Mingyan steps forward.
"I haven't seen it, but when your mother came over, people outside said that your mother was dead. I hired a carriage to drive her away later. That face..." Speaking of this, the old gentleman tut tut mouth, the crutch in his hand hit on the ground and hit it straight: "if you know that Gu Cheng is such a person, the old man of the house will not sell him."
Take the bamboo tube and open it after Gu Mingyan's eyes squint slightly.
After touching each word carefully, there were even some mildew spots on it that her fingers couldn't recognize completely, but the old man always sat there and didn't come up, just waiting for her to read the words and sentences on it little by little.
Put the bamboo tube down again, and Gu Mingyan's face darkened: "is this what the woman left behind?"
The old man nodded and was hearing Gu Mingyan hand over the paper.
There are two sentences on it.
, "as like as two peas, she wanted to kill me. She didn't know where she found a woman who was exactly the same as Ling. If I was not sure, she would also ask you to help me protect the real soul, and remember that you can't let Duan do stupid things."
"When you are pregnant, the soup and medicine have been made by others. Pay attention to the body of the smoker."
The two sentences were signed with the words "yunqi".
But when yunwan left, the news of Princess ling'er's death just came out. At that time, yunwan had left Gu Cheng's side by pretending to die, and it was hard to go back.
The old man suddenly opened his eyes wide and shook his head: "if I had given this bamboo tube to your mother earlier..."
"It's not your fault, but your original conservative commitment is right." Gu Mingyan sighed in his heart that he had made a fool of nature.
But if she had thought about it carefully, if her mother had seen the bamboo tube early, she would not be able to guard the real and the fake spirit even if she was alive, and she might have given up leaving for her own childhood.
If so, the only person trapped in the villa today who studies immortality is Yun Wan.
After all, judging from the time at that time, the Empress Dowager must go to die. There is no room for maneuver.
