Chapter 27 Snow and Long
Tsing Yi stopped playing the piano, nodded, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get it for you."
Tsing Yi went out quickly and went downstairs to get a plate of dim sum. When she was about to go upstairs, she was stunned because she heard the sound of the piano, which was very beautiful.
The sound of the piano is long and quiet, very lonely.
Qingyi stepped lightly, afraid of disturbing Gu Qingci, she walked into the room slowly, and saw Gu Qingci who was playing the piano, then, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and Gu Qingci took the snack in her hand.
"I didn't expect Mr. Gu to have such excellent piano skills, Tsing Yi admires it!" Tsing Yi said sincerely.
Gu Qingci ate his snacks without looking up, and said, "Actually, I don't want to kill people, and I don't want to be so vicious. Do you... believe it?"
Tsing Yi nodded and said, "I believe it!"
Gu Qingci then slowly raised his head, there was no emotion in his eyes, and his tone was very flat, he said: "If you believe it, that's good, so, I hope we can always cooperate happily, don't force me to kill people, okay?"
Qingyi was shocked all over, she felt the murderous intent, and immediately said: "Master Gu, don't worry, my reputation in Qixiufang is still very good, and I will definitely not let you down!"
Gu Qingci didn't speak, just focused on eating, Qingyi went to pour him another glass of water, until he finished eating, neither of them said a word.
I don't know how long it took, the fire in the north of the city gradually extinguished, Gu Qingci stood in front of the window, stared into the distance, and sighed softly: "It's finally over!"
At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and the personal maid in Tsing Yi broke in, and said angrily as soon as she entered the door: "Miss, that Pang Shilong is too bullying, I managed to catch the guy who molested me last time, he I was not allowed to kill, and even said it was Gu Qingci's order, so Gu Qingci is not a..."
But before he finished speaking, he suddenly froze, looked at Gu Qingci by the window in shock, and looked at Tsing Yi in a daze, with panic on his face.
Tsing Yi didn't expect Ran'er to chatter so much, but she didn't have time to stop her, so she stood up and said to Gu Qingci: "Master Gu, Ran'er is ignorant, talking nonsense, your lord has a lot, don't talk to her Forget about it, Tsing Yi will apologize to you on her behalf!"
Gu Qingci turned around slowly, looked at Ran'er coldly, looked at Qingyi, and said: "I won't argue with her, but, girl Qingyi, you still have to remember what the county said. As for that person, It was indeed I who asked Pang Shilong to stay, after all, this world is black and white, you should understand, right?"
Tsing Yi nodded, and said: "I understand, but don't worry, my lord, I am a businessman in Qixiufang, I only make money, and I don't touch anything else!"
…
It’s dawn, and it’s also cool.
Through the window, the snow has already fallen outside again, a bit big, but not dense, fluttering, just like the fallen leaves in late autumn, wandering non-stop.
When Gu Qingci woke up, it was already noon. He slowly put on his clothes and went out. A servant came to tell him that Ma Shilian and Pang Shilong had been waiting for him for a long time.
In the living room, Pang Shilong and Gu Qingci were warming up to the fire. As soon as they saw Gu Qingci come out, they immediately prepared to stand up and salute. Gu Qingci waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be too polite, just tell me, what was the result of last night's battle?"
Pang Shilong immediately cupped his hands and said: "My lord, I didn't sleep well last night. Although the masters of the two clans and gangs have lost their fighting power, the people below resisted fiercely. In addition, my lord, you ambushed Li Yu and the girl in Tsing Yi and took them to destroy the Li family. Nearly a thousand people were killed by Yamen's guards!"
Although he had been prepared for a long time, Gu Qingci was still slightly shocked when he heard this number. However, he also knew that such a death toll was already a major victory. All the soldiers died there, and those who were missing could wipe out the two clans and gangs.
Pang Shilong continued: "However, my lord, you have no plans to spare. The two clans and gangs have been completely wiped out. From then on, Changling County is all under your control, my lord."
Ma Shilian smiled slightly and said: "We have to congratulate you, now that Changling County has been cleared, and the people from Yushitai will come down to investigate in the new year. Alright, when the time comes to write to the imperial court, you will be able to return to Beijing, and you will definitely be able to enter the Imperial Academy!"
"Yes, yes, yes, my lord will surely rise to the top, and the sky will go straight up..."
Gu Qingci was a first-class Jinshi in the scientific examination last year, and he was very promising. In the same class of Jinshi, except for the No. 1 scholar, all 20 first-class Jinshi went to the local county to become officials.
According to the previous rules, every year the Imperial Court Yushitai will send people to check the achievements of these twenty Jinshi. Within three years, those with outstanding achievements will be transferred back to the capital and enter the Imperial Academy for gold plating. Can be a censor Dangdang.
In terms of Gu Qingci's achievements this time, there is no need to wait until three years later. After this year, he can directly return to Beijing to enter the Imperial Academy. The future is boundless, and Ma Shilian and Pang Shilong, who are Gu Qingci's powerful arms, will naturally He got a lot of benefits, and even followed Gu Qing to Beijing.
If it was the previous Gu Qingci, he would definitely be as excited as Ma Shilian and Pang Shilong, but he was no different than Gu Qingci.
Moreover, he is very self-aware. Let him stir up wind and rain in this small county. He is fine. If he really wants to go to the court, go to the center of power, with his methods, he will definitely be eaten up.
The most important thing is that he has a system. What he wants more now is martial arts, and he believes in strength. In this arena, he wants his fists to be strong, especially knowing that the martial arts in this world are prosperous and powerful. He can move mountains and fill seas by himself, so he is even less interested in being an official.
Ma Shilian stared at Gu Qingci for a while, and gradually realized that something was wrong, and asked in confusion: "My lord, my lord, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Qingci raised his head and glanced at Ma Shilian, but he didn't tell Ma Shilian and Pang Shilong what he thought, there was no need, everyone's opinion was different, and he was not ready yet, the most important thing is that this official, It's not that if you don't do it, you can not do it, you must get the approval of the court.
He shook his head and said: "I'll talk about these things later, you can just find a time to write to Yushitai. Last night, I asked you to catch them alive, did you catch them?"
"My lord!" Pang Shilong said: "I got it. It's the master of Feiying Fufeng Hall, named Ran Deng. Although this old boy is a second-rate warrior, he is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. He was fine when he was young, but In the following years, he became more and more afraid of death, and he was the first one to surrender yesterday!"
"Okay!" Gu Qingci slapped the table and said, "This county wants him to be greedy for life and fear death, otherwise, how can he be used by me?"
