Chang'an's anger subsided, "And his concubine, Gu Shijia! Since God has given me this opportunity, I will definitely destroy his career and avenge me!"
Suddenly, Gu Qingfeng felt that everything was explained.
All the changes are so reasonable, but how did Gu Shijia, who was originally the future Crown Princess, become Bei Mingye's concubine?
"Changan, no matter what you do, Dad supports you.
But don't let hatred ruin your life. There are probably only a few people as lucky as you in this world."
"Lucky? Maybe." The hatred in Chang'an's eyes slowly faded. "If I had a choice, I would rather never experience that kind of pain."
Gu Qingfeng was both asking and confirming, "So, when that incident happened in the boudoir that night, you were actually helping Gu Shijia."
Chang An admitted, "Yes? Will he? No! But the Emperor will definitely not agree. In his previous life, Bei Ming Ye was able to marry Gu Shijia because I asked the Queen Mother for help."
At this point, Gu Qingfeng stopped talking, and a hint of sadness passed through his heart.
After a long time, Changan spoke again, "Dad, Changan is tired. I will come to talk to you another day."
"Okay. Dad will have someone tell your grandfather that he won't be coming over for the time being."
"Thank you, Dad." Chang'an lowered his head and turned around, shedding a line of tears.
When Gu Changan left, Gu Qingfeng's face immediately became anxious, "Meng Tan, hurry up, push me to the study."
For some reason, Meng Tan could only see Gu Qingfeng looking anxious.
In Meng Tan's memory, the time he was so anxious was the night before the Battle of Junhai many years ago.
Now he seemed so anxious again, and Meng Tan was scared.
In the study, Gu Qingfeng looked at the bookshelf full of books with a frown on his face.
He remembered saying, "Meng Tan, take down all the books from the top shelf."
Meng Tan followed his instructions and took the book, but he didn't find the one Gu Qingfeng was looking for.
Going by one, Gu Qingfeng saw books that were yellowed and even a little worn.
Gu Qingfeng held the book, his fingers trembling slightly, "You stay outside and don't let anyone in."
Meng Tan leaves.
This book is very old, so old that even Gu Qingfeng's master doesn't know when it appeared.
Gu Qingfeng saw "Miscellaneous Talks" in his master's library when he was young. Many years later, he left the master's library, but for some reason, he found this book among his own books and brought it back with him.
As for the content inside, I accidentally came across it in my master's sect many years ago. More than twenty years have passed since then.
The contents were all vague things that existed if you believed them and did not exist if you did not, so Gu Qingfeng had never read them carefully or taken them to heart.
He carefully opened the book, searched carefully, and finally saw the handwriting he remembered, "The phoenix is born from the flames, filled with hatred, and the four kingdoms are united under the red-dressed emperor. The Gu family has a daughter, named Chang'an, with the courtesy name Lekang..."
A prologue, an explanation, but Gu Qingfeng only saw the beginning, and the words on it disappeared one by one out of thin air.
"Why?" Gu Qingfeng was surprised. He looked at the white paper in his hand without knowing what was wrong. He quickly turned to the next page, but before he could read it, the handwriting had disappeared.
If you look closely, you can see that the page next to it has been torn.
Gu Qingfeng wondered what the content was and who tore it off?
He carefully flipped through the entire book, fearing that he had missed something, but he found nothing. At the very back of the book were the words "Master of Floating".
Gu Qingfeng shook his head and muttered to himself, pondering the words just now, "The phoenix is born from the fire and hatred, and the four countries are united under the red-dressed emperor."
Chang'an's name and surname were given by his wife Qiuya. It was mentioned in the letter Qiuya wrote to him when he was imprisoned in the palace by the emperor and before the child was born.
However, when I saw the name at that time, I completely forgot the words I had seen before.
However, no one in the mansion knew Chang'an's courtesy name, and the family tree only listed his name but no courtesy name.
Meng Tan was guarding outside the door. There was no sound in the study. When he was wondering whether to go in and take a look, the door suddenly opened.
He saw that Gu Qingfeng's face was pale. "Master, how are you?"
Gu Qingfeng had a blank expression on his face as he ordered, "From today onwards, secretly inquire about the whereabouts of Master Fuyou."
"Master, isn't Master Fuyou in Fuyou Temple?"
"He has been traveling around three years ago, and his whereabouts are unknown. It is not easy to find Master Fuyou. Let's find him first." Gu Qingfeng glanced at the wordless book in his hand.
For the whole afternoon, Gu Qingfeng hid in his room with the book without any words on it and did not come out.
After Chang'an returned, she also slept in her own boudoir until the next day.
Early the next morning, Meng Tan reported to Gu Qingfeng, "Wan Xin just came over and said that the young lady had changed into men's clothes and left the house on her own."
"Where did you go?"
"I don't know. The young lady won't let me follow her." Meng Tan said, "Wan Xin also said that the young lady used the ice silkworm. It might be difficult to find it now."
"Let her be." Gu Qingfeng shook his head. "Chang'an knows his limits now. Tell Wanxin not to worry too much."
Chang'an, dressed in men's clothes, walked out of the back door of the general's mansion.
After leaving the house, he headed straight for the busiest gaming pavilion in Shu City. As the name suggests, it means playing chess. To put it more simply, it means gambling, all kinds of gambling, but this place is only for powerful nobles, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter.
"Sir." The servant at the door of the Gambling Pavilion was extremely respectful. "Is this your first time visiting our Gambling Pavilion?"
Changan smiled, didn't say anything, but gave the other person a look that said, "What do you think?"
"There are rules for entering the Gambling Pavilion." The servant said as he led Chang'an to where an old man was.
"Register your name and pay twenty gold leaves. Also, anyone entering this gambling pavilion may use the props within to play as they please. The stakes can be money, a promise, or simply a mutual interest. The dealer can be one of us who goes to the gambling pavilion, or you can choose your own."
Chang'an took the pen handed to him by the old man and wrote his name, Le Kang, on a bamboo board.
"Everyone here calls me Old Yu," the old man said, "Young Master, please call me that."
"Okay." Chang'an smiled and pulled out an amber jade token from his waist. "I don't have twenty gold leaves yet, but this thing should be worth it."
Old Yu took it and looked at it carefully. "Young Master, are you from the South?"
Chang'an narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled with satisfaction, "As expected, the people in this Gambling Pavilion are really knowledgeable. I will exchange the jade token later."
