Chapter 240: Going around

15days ago Historical fiction 5
The residence of the Prime Minister's Mansion is located in the east of the capital city, covering a large area. It was originally the house of the prince of the previous dynasty. It was given to Han Jinqing by the current emperor. After several renovations, the magnificent and graceful house of the mansion is not inferior to the peak of the previous dynasty.

The sedan chair stopped, and Gu Qingyin and Feng Shiyuan were led in by two young servants in green clothes. Along the way, carved beams and painted buildings, red painted railings, and white jade steps without any need to be detailed. After walking about a stick of incense, the two were finally placed in an elegant flower hall.

Lord Gu, what did the prime minister ask us to come here?

Feng Shiyuan took a sip of tea, and felt clear and sweet, and the lips and teeth were fragrant. I missed me, Feng Shiyuan, lived for half a lifetime, and never thought that I could be invited by the prime minister. I was so flattered

Gu Qingyin said lightly: It's mostly for the dereliction of duty of the Ministry of Works.

Feng Shiyuan glanced at her, chuckled, nodded again, and turned his eyes and saw two beautiful maids with bright eyes and white teeth walking in.

Lord Feng, please invite me

Feng Shiyuan immediately put down the teacup and stood up. Seeing this, Gu Qingyin stood up and walked out, but heard the maid say softly: Please savor more tea.

Then the smart and charming little maid brought the fragrant ginger soup and walked in. Gu Qingyin's constitution was cold and she was damp in her secret thoughts. After drinking a bowl of soup, her whole body suddenly became warm, and her internal organs were nourished, which was very comfortable.

Although Gu Qingyin tried his best to make himself patient, he still did not see anyone coming to guide him until the lights were held.

She didn't want to meet Han Jinqing, and she spent a lot of time in this flower hall. A fire rose in her heart and she could no longer wait.

When he arrived at the door of the hall, a servant happened to bring in a plate of food and asked her to have dinner with a smile on his face.

Is the prime minister in the mansion? Gu Qingyin asked at the beginning

The servant smiled, "How can the young master know the way the prime minister is doing? Lord Gu has used the meal well, just wait a moment."

Where is Lord Feng? Still with the prime minister? She continued to ask

The young man doesn't know so much, please have a meal first

Gu Qingyin looked at the exquisite food in front of her and had no appetite. After the servant left, she stepped out of the hall door.

The night was getting darker, and she walked along the way. The maid and servant she met saw her wearing court clothes and treated her as the prime minister's distinguished guest. They bowed to her, but no one was in trouble with her.

She walked around the garden in a circle, then passed through a plum forest, and her eyes suddenly became clear. She saw a rippling lake water, reflecting the faint moonlight. A row of bamboos by the lake swaying in the wind, and built a corridor along the lake, winding and exquisite.

She walked slowly along the lake, not knowing whether the direction was right, but just guessed the location based on her understanding of the layout of the house

Since she has come and spent all this time, she doesn't want to go there in vain. Besides, she really wants to make things clear with Han Jinqing.

Two well-dressed women walked from afar, with their buns tied up with gauze skirts swaying on the ground. Gu Qingyin intuition flashed behind the rockery.

Lord Yunshang, why did you think the prime minister is sick? A woman said

Who can be free from any illness when eating grains? The woman named Yun Shang said, her voice was gentle and clear, like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley

The woman said earlier: I heard it was because she entered the secret passage? Her voice was a little lower

Where did you hear it? Yun Shang said

Sir, don't you know? The Prime Minister took risks to save a female official? It was spread in private in the mansion.

Who allows you to gossip about the Prime Minister? Yun Shang said

Sir, I am also worried about you. We see how much you have paid for the Prime Minister over the years. If someone comes from where you come, you will...

Oh, worry about yourself, you will be selected by the officials soon

Lord Xie reminds me, the official knows, you said that the prime minister is sick and you won’t let you serve in front of you…

The two of them gradually walked away, and their slight words were blown away by the night wind

Gu Qingyin walked out from behind the rockery, looking a little confused

Sick? It's sick

Since you are sick, why are you asking her and Feng Shiyuan to do it?

She turned around and walked back along the way she came, her heart was empty. She had forgotten all the sets of words she had prepared before. She remembered his slightly pale face in the secret passage, his always cold and mocking expression, and his sharp words that blurted out...

After pausing, he turned around and walked forward along the lakeside
