late night song

Chapter 167
Lanye was resentful because of Zhang Mengyi's instigation. He returned to the dormitory angrily with a white face, almost tearing down the doors and windows along the way.

"Who messed with you again?" Gu Yuchu asked, leaning on the bedside and wiping his "WuChang" sword.

"It's not that Zhang Mengyi!" Lan Ye threw himself into the soft bed and said angrily.

"Why did she come to such a palace banquet?" Gu Yuchu put down the silk cloth and became alert unconsciously.

"She is now Da Sima's favorite little wife, and she is very proud."

"Ouyang Qunfang? How is this possible..."

"I don't know what means she used, but today she actually threatened me with Da Sima's reputation and status. I think she wants Kang Kang to be jealous of Lord Ouyang, so she'd better give him a death edict."

Gu Yuchu said nothing, and she began to suspect that this woman might have defected to Beiling.

"Xiao Chu?" Lan Ye saw that she was in a daze and kicked her arm with his foot.

"Huh? This woman can't move for the time being." Gu Yuchu came to his senses and reminded him.

"Of course I know this. But..."

"But what?"

"She told me today that the certificate of credentials He He sent to Beiling presented my horoscope, and it turned out to be a phoenix."

"and then?"

"She said that the court intends to push me to the position of Princess Beiling or Queen. But Ling Ziyu is so ridiculous, and Old Beiling is so old, I..." Lan Ye was speechless and covered him with a quilt. My head kept staring at my legs in grievance.

"Old King Beiling?!" Gu Yuchu jumped up in shock. She had never thought of this. Lan Ye was still so young. If she married the old emperor, wouldn't her next life be ruined!

She began to feel uneasy, but since the matter had not yet been decided, she could only force herself to calm down her emotions: "Don't think wildly. Since it is the court's plan, it is natural to think more long-term. The Crown Princess is the future." The Queen is also the mother of the world, and Ling Ziyu may not be as bad as the rumors outside."

"Listening to what you said, do you want me to marry to Beiling?" Lanye lifted the quilt and jumped up. She thought of Zhang Mengyi's instigation and clenched her hands tightly together. The unhappiness in her heart was about to explode. come out.

"Of course not! How could I let you stay so far away from me?" Gu Yuchu noticed her strangeness and hurriedly panicked.

"I'm not afraid of marrying anyone, but I can't bear to leave my brother." Lan Ye endured the unhappiness, sat slumped on the bed, and murmured.

"What's so good about Lejia Pengkang?" Hearing that she cared so much about Lejia Pengkang, Gu Yuchu felt angry unconsciously, but she still suppressed it and asked this question calmly.

In the end, it didn't matter if I didn't ask, but when I asked, it abruptly broke the tense string in Lan Ye's heart. The suppressed sadness and anger in her heart were out of control. She jumped up again and pointed at Gu Yuci's The nose asked: "What are you talking about! Gu Yuchu, please explain to me clearly, what are you suspecting when you are acting so weird all day?"

"What can I suspect?" Gu Yuchu curled his lips and didn't bother to look at her.

Lan Ye pulled her rudely and said loudly: "You must explain it clearly to me today!"

"Don't be unreasonable."

"Am I making trouble unreasonably? It's because you can't understand it! Didn't I just recognize my younger brother and become the head of the country in Hehe? Are you jealous, you think?!"

"Why am I jealous of you?" Gu Yuchu was angry and funny.

"Then why do you doubt this and that?"

"I do not have!"

"Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking! You just think that I am not worthy of being this princess. Lejia Pengkang cannot be my brother!"

"He was not your brother in the first place!" Gu Yuchu muttered quietly, but Lan Ye could still hear it clearly.

"I know you think so. I don't deserve to be a princess, so do you?" Lanye's eyes suddenly turned red, and his voice unconsciously rose an octave.

"You clearly know that I didn't mean this!" Gu Yuchu was helpless. This woman was so angry that it was difficult for him to break up with her.

"What else can happen? Do you think your brother is okay? Kangkang said he is not a good person." Lanye could no longer control his emotions and quarreled with his good sisters.

"Listen to what he's talking nonsense!" Gu Yuchu didn't want to argue with her at first, but when he heard her talking about his brother like this, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

"He's not talking nonsense. Your brother, like your mother, is a traitor to the country!"

Gu Yuchu's eyes widened, and the veins in his temples jumped with anger. He raised his feet and smashed the corner stool beside him.

"What are you doing? Do you still want to do something?!" Lan Ye took a half step back, a little scared in his heart, but his mouth was still strong.

"There is no need for the Lejia family to judge what kind of people my mother and my brother are!" Gu Yuchu's tone was extremely bad and he shouted.

"Don't forget that your mother's surname is also Lejia." Lanye persisted and vowed to fight over what was right and what was wrong.

Gu Yuchu stared at Lanye, his chest heaving, and shouted word by word: "In my heart, her surname is not Lejia, her surname is Gu!"

"That's the truth, you can't deny it!"

"Facts? Do you know what facts are? Then I will tell you today that Lejia Pengkang is not your brother from the same mother at all, and Xuan Lai may not be your biological mother!" Gu Yuchu was so excited that he put aside the suspicion in his heart. He said it all at once.

A few days ago, Ling Buhuo had just told her that Beiling's embroidered messengers had finally found out the life of Concubine Su who gave birth to Lejia Pengkang after many investigations. She was not Xuanlai and had never given birth to Lejia Pengkang at all. What daughter.

Lan Ye was stunned for a moment, then with red eyebrows and eyes, he pushed away the equally angry woman in front of him and yelled.

"Don't think that because you know martial arts, I won't dare to fight you! Why do you doubt my master? If my master says that I am her daughter, then I am her daughter! If my master says that Kangkang and I are siblings, then then That's right! Who are you to me! Why are you so sure!"

"Am I going to harm you?!" Gu Yuchu's face turned red with anger. She knew that Lan Ye was in a bad mood today, but even so, she shouldn't talk about her mother and brother. Based on this, she She couldn't bear it anymore. It could be seen that her good friend was so sad. Although she was still very angry, her tone softened unconsciously.

"My master will never harm me!" Lan Ye couldn't hold back anymore and cried loudly.

"Think it over yourself!" Gu Yuchu did not step forward to coax her, but dropped these words and turned around and left the palace, turning a deaf ear to the woman crying from inside the room.

This was the first time they had such a heated argument since they met. Gu Yuchu angrily ran towards the palace door. When she found that the palace door had been unlocked, she climbed up the wall without hesitation and left the palace.

In the small courtyard of Shudong Qinguan, the moon hung high, missing a corner but still bright. Ling Buhuo sat in the room and warmed several small pots of osmanthus wine.

At this moment, Gu Yuchu suddenly broke in. She took off her cloak and threw it aside. She walked closer to the stove, put down her sword, and sat down angrily.

"Where's my brother?" The woman's tone was as stinking as the stones in a latrine.

"I went out of town to do business." Ling Buhuo glanced at her and replied. "What's the matter with you? Don't you know today is the winter solstice? You treat your subordinates harshly, you're so cruel!" Gu Yuchu deliberately vented her anger on him. When she saw the wine warming on the stove, she unceremoniously picked up a pot and drank it all in one gulp.

"Did you take any gunpowder today?" Ling Buhuo was helpless.

Gu Yuchu ignored him, picked up another pot of wine and drank it.

"What's going on?" Seeing the woman like this, he knew that something big must have happened, and he was a little anxious.

"Is there any more wine?" Gu Yuchu shook the empty bottle and glared at him impatiently.

Ling Buhuo clapped his hands helplessly, and not long after, a servant presented five jars of Yuluo wine.

"That's pretty much it." She crossed her legs and eagerly took off the cover.

"This wine is cold, drink it slowly."

But Gu Yuchu refused to listen to him and ignored him. He picked up the jar and poured a large mouthful into his mouth, then looked at him extremely provocatively.

Ling Buhuo shook his head, opened a jar, poured some into small pots, and placed them on the fire to warm.

"Can you tell me now?" After doing this, he asked in detail.

"Did Zhang Mengyi defect to Beiling?"

"No, she is a helpless woman, but she is somewhat similar to my aunt, so what use can she have?"

"She is now Ouyang Qunfang's little wife!" Gu Yuchu directly told her the news that Lan Ye had told her.

"I know about this. She should have been placed next to Ouyang Qunfang by Qi Jinjue." Ling Buhuo thought for a while and replied.

"Qi Jinjue? Is he not dead yet?" Gu Yuchu paused and fell into deep thought.

"Living well, he even defected to Xirong."

"Xirong? Is the border going to be unstable again?"

"Indeed." Ling Buhuo sat up straight and frowned.

"Last time there was a fight in the post house, was it you or Ling Zhiyu?" Speaking of Qi Jinjue, Gu Yuchu suddenly remembered the mysterious man there.

"It's me." Ling Buhuo smiled and admitted generously, "You want to talk about that mysterious person?"

"Yes, his martial arts moves came from the academy. I fought with him twice. It was difficult to resist Jing Heng at the foot of Qiyun Mountain. Where did he come from?"

"It can't be found, but after the battle at Qiyun Mountain, there is no news about the mysterious man. He has an upper wound on his waist. The embroidered cloth messenger checked He and the military attachés in the court, but there are still no clues."

"Perhaps it's a civil servant who is well-disguised, or a general who goes out to work, or a eunuch in the palace."

"We will continue to investigate this. What did Zhang Mengyi do today?"

"She said Lan Ye would marry your father and become Beiling's queen!" Gu Yuchu finally realized what he was doing and frowned again.

"Haha, Ouyang Qunfang had a pretty good idea, and that's why he came up with the Phoenix destiny." Ling Buhuo breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"Then can this marriage still work?" She was very worried thinking about Lan Ye's seemingly irreversible loyalty to Le Jia Pengkang.

"Zuo Bubu just asked Ling Ziyu to arrange the marriage first, and then take Lanye back to Yunjing smoothly. Things will be easy to handle after that. I'm just afraid that Hehe will ask them to get married in Qiongzhou."

"I still don't agree to marry Ling Ziyu!" Gu Yuchu remembered their quarrel just now and took another sip of wine, "But there is really no good way to make Lejia Pengkang let her go."

"Did you have a quarrel?" Ling Buhuo seemed to see something and asked.

"Don't mention that stupid woman, she was just drunk by Xuan Lai and Lejia Pengkang!" Gu Yuchu gritted his teeth angrily.

"Lanye's life experience is indeed difficult to solve, but Xuan Lai's life experience has been revealed. The Qianmeng Village where Lejia Pengkang was wiped out has been living in seclusion all year round. The village is only allowed out but not allowed in, so it did not encounter the plague 30 years ago. Several villagers who survived the last disaster recalled carefully that several families moved out of the village over the past century, one of which was named Lan and had an only daughter who was about five or six years old when she left the village."

"Even if your surname is Lan, you can't be sure that Lan Ye is Xuan Lai's child." Gu Yuchu rolled his eyes and reached out to touch the wine jar. Ling Buhuo handed the warm wine flask to her and dragged the wine away. The jar of cold wine was brought up and he took a sip.

"Indeed. But we might as well think about it the other way around, maybe we can find some clues. If she is Xuan Lai's child, then based on Lan Ye's age, Xuan Lai gave birth to her about a year after she became a teacher, and in the next two years, She became the female palace medical officer in Beiling. After the Northern Qi Incident happened and my mother-in-law set a fire and escaped from Ziyan Palace, my father, in a rage, dismissed all the old people in my mother's palace, including Xuan Lai. After that She spent a year outside in Yunyun for medical treatment before taking Lan Ye back to Sanxing Academy."

"So it's possible that Xuan Lai told Le Jia Huanyu that your mother-in-law sent a letter to Dong Qi, right?" Gu Yuchu was distracted for a moment, thinking of the letter related to his mother's reputation.

"Yes." Ling Buhuo was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously took another sip of cold wine.

"But if Xuan Lai is your mother-in-law's medical officer, why can't you recognize him?"

"Xuan Lai is smart. It's not difficult to secretly learn Kanmen's disguise technique."

Gu Yuchu fiddled with the charcoal in the stove and thought for a while: "If Lan Ye is Xuan Lai's child, then who is his father? Is Le Jia still in love?"

"This cannot be found yet. Xuan Lai has a close relationship with a Xunmen senior brother in Sanxing Academy, but he left the school two years before Xuan Lai and joined Zongyu Villa. There has been no news since then. Shu Yuan left the city this time to check Find clues about him."

"I'm not talking about you, this efficiency is too poor." She threw away the small wine bottle and waved her hand impatiently.

"Drink less." Ling Buhuo didn't pay attention to the woman's accusation, but said with concern.

"I feel unhappy. If you don't accompany me, don't talk nonsense." Gu Yuchu didn't appreciate it and stared at him angrily.

"Okay, okay. Then you drink the hot one and I'll drink the cold one." Ling Buhuo really had nothing to do with her. He knew her drinking capacity, so he no longer held back.

So, just like that, the two of them drank until the moon almost set.

After going back and forth, Gu Yuchu thought that his drinking capacity was already amazing, but he didn't expect to meet Ling Buhuo.But come to think of it, his younger brother Ling Ziyu is a drunkard who is famous for drinking three thousand cups a night, so naturally they are the same mother and father.

Later, her stomach was so bloated that she couldn't bear it anymore, so she kicked the man out.

"This is my room?!" Ling Buhuo looked at this woman who was just being unreasonable to him in disbelief and reminded him.

"I have no place to sleep, and I can't go back to the military camp because I smell like alcohol. Why don't you stay cool?" After saying that, he unsteadily got into bed with his clothes on, and Ling Buhuo then left the room helplessly.
