Su Zhen followed behind, watching his lonely back getting further and further away, feeling filled with emotions in her heart.

Who would have thought that Gu Yunshu, who has always been as stable as a mountain, would be so upset that he would lose his mind due to fear.

Not far away, Su Shen'er, dressed in blue, led her maid out of the hanging flower gate of the inner courtyard. She couldn't help but be surprised when she saw Gu Yunshu's face turned frosty, and then returned to his elegant smile.

I wanted to step forward, but the two men were already gone.

"Cai'er, who is the young master who just walked with Zhen'er?"

Cai'er looked at the direction Su Zhen was leaving and replied, "Back to the eldest lady, that's Mr. Gu Yunshu. He went back to the house with the master after he left the court, but it seems that he came here for the eldest son."

Su Shen'er was surprised and said, "For Zhen'er? When did they meet?"

Cai'er came forward and whispered in her ear, "Miss, I heard that the eldest master can catch monsters."

Su Shen'er was stunned, then she turned to cover her lips with her handkerchief and said with a smile, "Catching monsters? Zhen'er can climb up a tree and dig out bird eggs, or go into the water to fish for Ke Dou. I'm afraid he can't even catch a chicken. How can he catch monsters?"

"

"Oh, Miss, it's true, don't believe it! Now it's spread all over the house."

"Although dad was a little strict with Zhen'er, it was for his own good. What's more, with mom here, how could she let him die."

Su Shen'er shook her head helplessly and walked towards the dining hall. After taking a few steps, she subconsciously turned back, but the figure of the man had disappeared without a trace.

Su Zhen and Gu Yunshu were walking together in the busy city. They were handsome and eye-catching. Normally, they would have attracted many people to stop and watch, but today the streets were much deserted.

When the common people learned that there was a demon in Kyoto, most of them did not dare to go out. Even the number of imperial troops patrolling the city more than doubled.

"Be careful, someone seems to be following you."

Su Zhen held a pack of sweet silver candy in her hand. The color was milky white, like thousands of strands intertwined, and it melted in her mouth.

"Just follow, no big deal. Dongli-kun, try this. Ziye always likes it. It tastes really good, but it's a bit sweet."

Gu Yunshu nodded, picked up a piece, brought it to his lips and took a bite.

He suddenly remembered the time when that cute and pretty girl pulled his sleeves to act like a baby and pestered him to buy candies.

Su Zhen stood in front of a hawker stall, watching the other person making sugar paintings, but her eyes drifted to the people in casual clothes at the back.

These people have been guarding outside the Taifu Mansion, and they must have been sent by Yu Changqing.

As expected, he was thoughtful and didn't completely believe her.

The two of them wandered around the city of Kyoto with no intention of looking for Si Li.

The people following him gradually became impatient.

"Master Jin Lian, why do you want us to look at this kid Su Zhen? What does he know? He is wandering around doing nothing, and he is not afraid of monsters catching him."

"To be valued by adults, he must have something special, right?"

"Why are you talking so much? I'm just following my orders."

"Yes yes yes!"

The largest restaurant in Kyoto was overcrowded, and the waiter was sweating from his busy schedule. The shopkeeper arranged a comfortable private room for Su Zhen and Gu Yunshu, and also ordered a table of wine and food.

Looking at the dazzling array of dishes on the table, Su Zhen added a glass of wine for Gu Yunshu, picked up her chopsticks and added some vegetarian dishes to his bowl.

"Master Su, what do you mean?"

"Aren't you going to pay for it with your life? Just think of it as a farewell meal. By the way, Mr. Dongli, just call me You Ning."

"good."

Seeing that he didn't move his chopsticks, Su Zhen asked with a smile, "Are you afraid that I will poison you? Or are you eating tasteless and don't want to eat it?"

Listening to her teasing, Gu Yunshu's eyes flickered, "I've already had lunch. After you finish eating, we'll go look for A Li."

"Then wait a moment, there are two friends coming later."

"good."

Su Zhen had rarely eaten since yesterday and was already ravenous with hunger. She was too lazy to pretend to be in front of Gu Yunshu and started eating by herself.

"Alas, Jiyuefang's peach blossom wine is still delicious."

"You Ning, you seem to be a frequent visitor to Jiyuefang?"

"Yes, I will go there almost every three days."

"Even if Taifu's mansion has a mountain of gold and silver, it cannot be used for your squandering. If someone reports this matter to the emperor, Taifu Su may be investigated for it."

"My father is an upright and honest official. Even if there is a gold mountain, it will be rewarded by the emperor."

"You don't seem like a prodigal, but I heard that you have a very good personal relationship with Yueniang?"

Gu Yunshu became suspicious of her so quickly?

Su Zhen's hand holding the vegetables paused, "Donli-kun, don't worry, I stole that peach blossom stuffed rice."

"steal?!"

"uh-huh."

"Jiyuefang is heavily guarded. The defense is comparable to that of a palace. You can advance, attack, retreat or defend. How do you steal it?"

"I, Su Zhen, am the only one who doesn't want anything in this world, so how can I say I can't ask for it?"

"You are so arrogant, no wonder you caught his eye."

"He? The prince?"

Gu Yunshu shook his head and smiled lightly.

I said goodbye to Ah Hong yesterday, but who knew we would never see each other again.

At this time, his eyes fell on the wooden string on Su Zhen's wrist, and he felt strange in his heart.

Just now, he noticed spiritual energy on the wooden rope. Although it was fleeting, he was still able to capture it.

"Who are you waiting for?"

Su Zhen looked out the door and said with a smile, "Here we come."

A series of footsteps sounded from the corridor of the restaurant, and then the door of the private room was pushed open.

Mo Sheng saw Su Zhen enjoying herself while eating alone, and left Gu Yunshu aside, speechless and amused.

If word of this gets out, she will have to add another lack of etiquette to her list of smears.

Behind Mo Sheng were Zhu Gusheng and Song Kun, both of whom had stern looks. Especially Zhu Gusheng, who was in ragged clothes and disheveled, was obviously extremely taboo about Su Zhen's previous talk of five disadvantages and three deficiencies.

Gu Yunshu had no ill will or dislike towards them and smiled in a friendly manner.

Just his eyes lingered on Mo Sheng for a moment, huh? Demonic aura?

"Mr. Dongli, this is Mo Sheng, whom you met yesterday at the Punishment Department. As for the other two elders, this one is Zhu Gusheng, and the one next to him is his nephew Songkun."

"Zhu Gusheng? Zhu Gusheng, the gambling king who controlled Luo Qi's money back then?!"

Gu Yunshu didn't take a closer look just now. It was only after he was surprised that he noticed his true face.

"It's Lao Chan." Zhu Gusheng's eyes flashed, "It turns out to be Master Gu. We should have met each other before. Just call Lao Chan Lao Zhutou."

Gu Yunshu raised the corners of his lips, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I wish you were polite, Yunshu is being polite."

"Your Excellency once said that there is no time in your life to force anything. If I could practice this words back then, it would definitely be easier now."

Su Zhen picked up a piece of fish and put it into her mouth. After chewing it and swallowing it, she said, "Okay, don't be polite. Let's sit down and eat together."

"Master Su, this"

"Everyone who comes is a guest, so don't be polite. If you have anything to do, we can talk about it after dinner."

"Then thank you Mr. Su."

Mo Sheng went out and asked the waiter to bring a few more sets of bowls and chopsticks. They sat together and ate. Except for Su Zhen who ate carelessly, everyone else had their own thoughts.

"You Ning, it turns out that you still know Lao Zhutou."

Su Zhen smiled and said, "Mr. Dongli, Ziye and I helped Master Songkun yesterday on the street. By the way, your hosta was also given by this master."

Zhu Gusheng and Songkun finally knew why Su Zhen asked Mo Sheng to bring them here in person. It turned out that the drunkard was not interested in drinking.

But even Mo Sheng couldn't figure out what kind of medicine Su Zhen was selling in the gourd.

She went around among everyone, seemingly lying everywhere, and seemed to say nothing wrong. However, her words were ambiguous, she never spoke clearly, concealed part of the truth, and whetted the appetite of those people, as if she wanted to lure them into taking the bait.
