Wu Qi didn't seem to notice Gu Lang's ugly face, so he still lay on top of him, and said very regretfully: "Oh, I finally dreamed of a beautiful woman, and I didn't give a hug, why did I wake up..."

Both of them were only wearing their underwear, and they had just woken up. They were all warm, and they could touch the warmth of each other's chests through the clothes. Gu Lang felt a little uncomfortable, he pushed him and said, "Let go."

"I'm sorry, sorry," Wu Qi moved, but didn't get up, and said helplessly: "I can't get up, my legs are numb."

Gu Lang was about to get up immediately, Wu Qi was afraid of falling, so he hugged his waist even tighter, "Hey, be careful!" The hand under his waist did not forget to touch, and sighed: " Brother Gu, your waist is so thin..."

Gu Lang shoved him down.

Wu Qi fell on the bed, rubbed his back and mourned, "It hurts... it hurts..."

Gu Lang put on his coat and walked out the door without looking back.

Wu Qi stopped howling when he saw that someone was going out, but instead smiled. He lay back on the bed, and seemed a little worried, and said to himself, "I really lost weight."

After Gu Lang left the East Palace, he went to a tea house.

After he had a few cups of tea by the window on the second floor, a middle-aged man in his forties went upstairs and sat across from him.

"Master." Zhao Zhuo said softly.

Gu Lang nodded and poured him tea, "Uncle Zhao."

Zhao Zhuo took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Lang, "This is the news I've heard these days, most of it is about the Zheng residence."

Gu Lang took the letter, opened it, looked at it, and said to Zhao Zhuo, "Uncle Zhao, there is martial law in Beijing these few days, be careful with everything."

Zhao Zhuo nodded and hesitated, "Young master, Young Master Murong... was he really killed?"

Gu Lang folded the letter's hand for a while, lowered his eyes, and said nothing.

Zhao Zhuo knew that he had said something wrong, and was about to speak when he suddenly heard someone shouting at the entrance of the stairs, "Brother Gu."

Wu Qi walked over with a smile, "Brother Gu, don't call me when you come for tea." He turned to look at Zhao Zhuo again, and asked, "This is..."

Gu Lang didn't answer and asked him, "How did you know I was here?"

"I don't know," Wu Qi said innocently, "I was just passing by, and I happened to see you drinking tea in this building, so I came up."

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the street. They looked down from the window and saw a line of people swaggering across the street.

It is the iron cavalry army left in Beijing by Beiqi.

Eleven years ago, when Dayan General Nie Zhan was killed, Beiqi took advantage of the situation and captured the northern border. After Dayan was forced to ask for peace, Beiqi's iron cavalry army never left the capital.

It is said that the general Nie Zhan was killed by his deputy Gu Zhang. The commander of the forbidden army, Zheng Yufei, found Gu Zhang stabbing Nie Zhan with a knife in the alley, and then found the correspondence between Gu Zhang and Bei Qi from Gu Mansion. Emperor Dayan was furious, and beheaded the entire Gu family for the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason.

However, Nie Zhan was seriously injured and died, and the people in the north were distracted, and finally could not stop the Beiqi army that suddenly rushed down.

For eleven years, Dayan kept a low profile and paid a large amount of gold and silver to Beiqi in exchange for peace. As a result, the taxation became increasingly heavy and the people were suffering.

"Get out of the way!" The leader of the iron cavalry army, with a fierce look on his back, shouted at the passers-by.

Gu Lang looked at the man, the hand hanging by his side suddenly clenched tightly. He watched him ride slowly down the street, passing under the window, and then suddenly a pot of tea was poured on the man's head.

"Who?!" Gao Cheng wiped his face and said angrily, "Get out!"

Gu Lang and Zhao Zhuo looked at Wu Qi in shock.

Wu Qi held the empty teapot and smiled at Gao Cheng: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my hand slipped for a while."

Gao Cheng glared angrily, "Bastard! Who are you?!"

Wu Qi: "The villain is just a servant of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Your Excellency forgive me."

Gu Lang: ""

When did you become a servant of the Prime Minister's Mansion again?
