late night song

Chapter 113
Just when Ling Ziyu and Gu Yuchu were drinking and bickering in the best box of Qiongzhou No. [-] Restaurant, Ling Ziyu's personal bodyguard Wu Qin came to pass the news.

"Young Master." When Wu Qin saw someone there, he stopped talking.

"Tell me, there are no outsiders here." Ling Ziyu disagreed, and Gu Yuchu didn't show any pretense and continued to eat and drink from her.

Seeing this, Wu Qin no longer had any scruples and reported the latest news at the Yuquan Palace banquet.

"At the banquet, Lord Lejia named Miss Sang'er a second-grade beauty, and then pointed her out to Dou Mengqi."

"Sangong division commander Bailiu Dou Mengqi has the same rank as the prime minister, but it is a nominal position. Le Jia Huanyu also took a lot of trouble. Where is the oiran?" Ling Ziyu continued to ask without any surprise.

"Mo Qian will stay directly in front of the attendant."

"Understood, let's go down."

Ling Ziyu waved his hand, and Wu Qinqin stepped back. Gu Yuchu followed Youyou and commented: "Both parties are not offended. Le Jia Huanyu also gave Beiling enough face."

"You can see it so clearly." Ling Ziyu raised his hand and took a drink. He wanted to ask her if she could see the frame clearly, but he still couldn't bear to offend her.

"I'm not stupid."

"Heh." Ling Ziyu was happy, "You know the subtleties of Suo Xing Palace, Fuyun Palace, and Poshan Residence."

"You really don't shy away from it. Aren't you worried that I am Dong Qi's trick?"

"Didn't Dong Qi still suspect that you were Beiling's spy?! Ever since you accidentally walked into the gate of my Locking Star Palace, you were destined to be mine."

"Accidental collision? Now I seriously doubt that it was you!" Although Gu Yuchu had this doubt, he still believed in the sincerity of Juan Niang and the others.

"I was praising you just now, but now I'm acting stupid again." Ling Ziyu shook his head helplessly.

"Thank you. It's getting late and I should leave. Say goodbye!" Gu Yuchu flicked the pastry crumbs on his body, patted his butt and prepared to leave.

"Midnight hasn't arrived yet." Ling Ziyu took her hand and said to stay.

Gu Yuchu shook it off, stared fiercely and threatened, "Didn't you eat enough with your fist last time?"

"You are very hostile to me." Ling Ziyu let go of his hand, but stood in front of her, refusing to let her go.

"Nonsense, you are using your hands, feet, and bad words. How can I still greet you with a smile?" Gu Yuchu rolled his eyes, wondering if there was something wrong with this person.

"Ling Ziyu, this bastard!"

"You're right!" Gu Yuchu slapped his hands in front of Ling Ziyu's eyes. His self-assessment really spoke to his heart.

"Farewell!"

Gu Yuchu fiercely pushed away the obstructive man in front of him, but when he walked to the door, he was pinned to the spot by Ling Ziyu's words, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Has your brother been found? Yuchi Yuchu."

"You know everything?!" Gu Yuchu's heart suddenly rose in his throat, and he was a little nervous for a moment.

Ling Ziyu ignored her and just sat back at the wine table. He happily poured a glass of wine, but before it reached his mouth, Gu Yuchu cut it off and placed it heavily on the table.

"Do you have any news about him? Tell me quickly!"

"You are so cruel. You have to have a begging attitude when asking for help."

"I didn't ask you."

"That's fine, you can do it yourself." Ling Ziyu pointed to the door, but Gu Yuchu sat down opposite and looked at him angrily.

"Ling Ziyu, tell me the truth. Do you have any news about Jing Heng?"

"Jingheng? That's a good name."

"Don't make excuses for me."

"Where's the jade sign? Let me take a look." Ling Ziyu hooked his hand at her.

Gu Yuchu quickly pulled the jade plaque from his waist and handed it to him.

"It's rare to see you so well-behaved."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Ling Ziyu raised his eyes and smiled, then lowered his head and took a closer look at the jade token. It was indeed a pair with that brat.It's a pity that the boy is stubborn, and I am entrusted by him, and I am not willing to recognize this sister for the time being. Therefore, no matter how much thought and effort Yuchiyu spent at first, he could not find any information about him.

"Have you seen it?" Gu Yuchu asked anxiously.

"Although this kind of jade medal is of good quality, it is also ordinary."

"Are you kidding me?!" Gu Yuchu stood up and tried to grab the jade medal, but failed. So she pinched his arm hard and succeeded in grabbing it.

"The most poisonous woman's heart is a wise saying!" Although Ling Ziyu rubbed his injured arm, his expression remained as usual, and he did not forget to show off, "However, in the realm of Beiling and Hehe, it is difficult to find someone to say it. Easier said than done, depending on who does it.”

"Why should I trust you to help me?" Gu Yuchu held the jade token and glared at him sideways.

"You know I never do business at a loss." Ling Ziyu raised his lips.

"What do you want me to do for you?" After hearing this, she felt much more relaxed. They were just using each other, and she was very able to accept this kind of deal.

"Help Juan Niang take care of Suo Xing Palace, and the turnover will triple within a year." Ling Ziyu held his chin and said easily.

"Is it that simple? Do you want me to help you with your business? Or do you want me to go against Dong Qi?" Gu Yuchu was surprised at first, then doubted his intentions and asked.

Ling Ziyu squinted his eyes and smiled, noncommittal.

"You have nowhere to go anyway, so why not stay? It will be easier for us to find you if there is any news."

"Are you sure of this?" Gu Yuchu thought that in the realm of Beiling, if Ling Ziyu couldn't do it, there might be no one else who could do it, but she still expressed doubts and sarcasm, not wanting him to think that I can only rely on him. Secondly, it captures his self-righteous heart and motivates him to do his best.

But Ling Ziyu's reaction was beyond her expectation. He was not angry because she underestimated him, but smiled meaningfully.

"Qi Lian is also sure of this, why don't you ask him?"

"First of all, I didn't ask you, and secondly, the matter between me and him has nothing to do with you!" Gu Yuchu's eyes widened, and he stood up suddenly, his tone becoming more and more aggressive.

"Okay, okay, I beg you, please, please help you, okay?" Ling Ziyu curled his lips slightly, and his face looked a little unhappy.

"That's natural." Gu Yuchu obviously liked this, calmed down and sat down.

Seeing how complacent she was even after the rain, Ling Ziyu was also in a good mood, and his face became much more relaxed.

"Then is our deal concluded?"

"It's a deal!" Gu Yuchu raised his glass and expressed his attitude.

It was rare for the two of them to be so harmonious. They raised their glasses and drank in one gulp.

"Then you have to give me your jade token." Ling Ziyu stretched out his slender hand and winked at her.

"Why?" Gu Yuchu was suspicious and did not agree.

"How about I find it for you by word of mouth? Also, are there any other clues besides this jade token?"

"Fifteen years ago, when my younger brother was four years old, my uncle took him from Dongqi to my ancestral home in Beiling. He passed by the boundary of He and Huai'en. On the way, he encountered bandits and made trouble, and then his whereabouts are unknown."

"Whose last name is your grandfather and uncle?"

"The surname is Gu, I don't know the specific name."

"Then what did your grandfather and uncle do?"

"Business. I went to Beiling once when I was very young. I think I was involved in the silk and satin business. I can't remember the details."

"It's all in vain." Ling Ziyu shook his head helplessly.

Gu Yuchu bit his lip gently and pouted slightly, looking innocent.She indeed rarely heard from her parents about the situation in her grandfather's house, and because she was young, she could remember very little useful information. This was also the biggest reason why she had been searching so hard for so many years to no avail.

"Then does your brother have any obvious characteristics, such as a birthmark?"

"No." Gu Yuchu still kept an eye on it, just like she did with Qi Jian. This was the last bargaining chip she left to herself to verify whether it was true or false.

"Okay. Give me the jade token." Ling Ziyu urged impatiently.

"What if you lose it?"

"This is not a rare object. I have never seen any treasures before. Besides, do you have any clues? If you don't give me an object, will I conjure a younger brother out of thin air for you?"

Gu Yuchu felt that what he said made sense. She rolled her eyes and thought of a good idea.

"You also give me a special object and we exchange it."

"What are you doing, a token of love?" Ling Ziyu smiled evilly.

"Get out! Do you want to give it to me?" For some reason, Gu Yuchu couldn't control his emotions when facing this prodigal.

"Okay, okay, because you are so good-looking, I will obey you." Ling Ziyu took out a short and exquisite bone flute from his arms and handed it to the fierce-looking woman opposite.

The bone flute was warm, and it must have been something close to the body. Gu Yuchu fiddled with the moon-purple tassel hanging on the lower end of the bone flute, and said mockingly: "You gave me the token of love that the girl's family gave you, don't you want to harm me?" Kill me?"

Ling Ziyu did not take it as casually as she imagined. Instead, he suppressed his smile and said seriously: "This is the Phoenix leg bone. It was given to me by my mother. With it, you can freely enter and leave Beiling and even the inner courtyard of the palace."

"Phoenix leg bone? Real or fake? So precious. You gave it to me so easily? Aren't you afraid that I am really Dong Qi's masterpiece?"

Gu Yuchu said to himself, taking a closer look at the ordinary bone flute in his hand. She also heard that Queen Beiling's whereabouts were unknown more than ten years ago. If it is true, this thing is indeed extremely precious to him. of.

"It makes sense, then give it back to me." Ling Ziyu suddenly turned his face and reached out to ask for it.

"That's it!" Gu Yuchu held the bone flute tightly to his heart, it was very precious.Indeed, this thing is a big treasure. It can enter and leave Beiling's territory and the palace freely. If there is any need, it can be put to good use.

"Keep your love tokens safe, you know, little earthworm." Ling Ziyu stood up and patted her head, very dotingly.

Gu Yuchu raised his eyes and glared at him fiercely, little earthworm?This man is so talented that he even has to be unique in his names.

However, I remember that when I was a child, I met several mentally ill children. They not only called Yuchi a fish pond or fish food, but also called myself a carp spirit or an earthworm.

"That's it for today. I'm looking forward to your good news." Gu Yuchu waved and said goodbye.

"You ran away as soon as you fell in love, little earthworm, are you shy?" Ling Ziyu shouted at her decisive back.

"Boss, I have to go back and make money, and don't call me such a disgusting name again." Gu Yuchu turned around and warned, then slammed the door and left, leaving Ling Ziyu alone in a daze.

In fact, for him, it only takes a matter of seconds to find Yuchi Jingheng. They have known each other for a long time, and their relationship is comparable to that of biological brothers.

It's just that he has the same bad temper as his sister, and he refuses to change things easily.

Compared with Yuchi Yuchu, Yuchi Jingheng knew the whole truth very early, so he refused to forgive Dong Qi, let alone accept that his only sister was willing to stay with his enemy, indulge in love, and ignore family feud.

Therefore, even if he knew Gu Yuchu's whereabouts early on and knew that she was always looking for him, he still didn't want to meet his sister.He just wanted her to taste the feeling of being homeless and find out who was more important, relatives or enemies. This was his punishment for her being the concubine of the King of Qin.

Ling Ziyu also knew Yuchi Jingheng's decision. Although he could take advantage of their brother-sister recognition, it was really inconvenient for him to interfere too much.

Just like he used the guise of helping Gu Yuchu find his younger brother, but in fact he was just delaying her stay in Hehe for a while, lest she be abducted back by Qi Zhi's few words. This would really break the relationship between their siblings. If the two countries went to war, the swords would be pointed at each other, and it would be even more cruel to them.
