Chapter 598: Door Covered with Gray Hair

The other side stopped for a while, and then sent another message: "I found Yu Yicheng's head?"

"Um. Qu Chang was the one who was hosted in that year. He found this person, and he understood many things, but Yu Yicheng killed him." Pei Li briefly described the matter about Yuyu Garden, "leading me to me Now you can only get some residual rolls, find some old people who do not know the inside, find clues from it ... I think this effect is not good, since Yu Yicheng is still there, it is better to do it directly from him. "

"Good idea, I am afraid that in the future, I am afraid that it can lead the crane characters."

"... Don't stir up, ask you seriously." Pei Li turned over the materials in his hand and tried to find a few names from it.

"It's not as straight, it's better to check the song, it's better to find it." Xu Chouping's voice seemed to be in your heart, "But you want to check Yu Yucheng in the palace, it is indeed a difficult and dangerous thing "" "

"What do you mean?"

"Yu Yicheng has lived in his fifty years, and it is in the palace for forty years. He can't get out of heaven, and the fierce name has made Chaotang jealous. Now you have run to his old nest. What do you say? ' "He Yi '" Xu Chuo sent a long period of time, "He proposed a private house in the province of the province of the south of Yuting, and there was no such place in the Manchu and Martial Arts. Run to the northern Xinjiang to check King Yan, it's about Mo. "

"Forty years ... tell me about this person?"

"Yu Yicheng does not have any family members of the clan. It is the orphans that people are quite afraid of. Because of this, people have rare people to understand him. I entered the palace. At that time, it was not the sage today in the reign. He stayed in the Palace Palace for more than ten years. After ten years, he took the imperial throne to change the wind. I am the first power, and then the power has continued to increase. I have led the forbidden army and the three houses of responsibility ... to this day, no one knows how long his hands have been stretched out. "

"So, if anyone wants to have any movements in the palace, it must not get around him?"

"At least in my memory, you can say that."

Pei Li nodded, turned over a few pages of drawings. After a while, he also ticked a few names, but it was not occasionally mentioned as a hard work. He turned around carefully, trying to find a name similar to supervisors and Guan Ling.

"Yu Yicheng's house is in the northern corner of the province, adjacent to the south pool, and others are in the palace. But if you really have to have any movements to him, it is better to take a slight roundabout and take a bridge from another person."

"who?"

"Fish Ziliang."

Pei Li is thoughtful.

"Yu Ziliang is often in the palace. Yu Yicheng loves this righteous son, but he is a rare precious idiot." No one dares to hit him, for fear of recruiting revenge, but since you are intending to move the fish, you don’t have to care. "

"It turns out." Pei Li was in his heart, "Is there a whereabouts of this person?"

"He is used to love to follow Li Yujin. The specific news I am convergent. I will send you to you today. You can do it yourself." Xu Chuo probably did not make goodbye, and did not say goodbye. Essence

"Okay." Pei Li took back his mind, looked down at the last page in his hand, and slowly hooked the last name.

This name is not special, but the location is a bit strange. The entire set of materials only appeared once in the end, under the "verification and acceptance: the internal servant and the young prison often", and a line of scribbled pen.

The ink with a pen is different, as if after a period of time, I wrote it: "Review: the captain Shi Guo, the captain of the Shenwu army."

Pei Li got into the case of the case and said the name twice.

"Don't say," Pei Li stood up from his up and smiled at the kitten with his head, "With this [Knowing], it is really convenient to talk about it."

The black cat had no expression, and glanced at him: "You are talking at any time, but now you avoid me."

"..."

... before seeing the kitten passed on.

Pei Li was cleverly answered, and put away the material and walked on the street. Although it was said to be a courtesy, it seemed to be a miserable female cold palace, but in fact, it was much more popular than the Daming Palace. Silence of strictness.

On the other hand, everything in the palace is done by the hands of the people here. There is no eyebrow in the Daming Palace. I am afraid there are often news and audio here.

After thinking about it seriously, Pei Li went to the west first. The map given by the fairy platform said that "the west of the court, the palace people's mixed living" is exactly what he likes.

Not much step, I really saw a large crowded alley -not every palace person was clear, nor was every company setting up everyone, not to mention that there were pharmacists who cured diseases, old palace maids. The concubine of the sin, many people who do not agree with each other live in these dozens of staggered alleys.

It's just that the appearance here is not as bright and neat as the outside. For a long time, the people are resident and the wind and rain are urged. Narrow and deep, the eaves are old and dark, and some of the bright red spring couplets are posted on it.

Han was called Yongxiang, I am afraid that it would be about it.

Pei Li walked slowly, and suddenly stopped, landing on a large courtyard opposite the alley, it was the embroidery workshop just mentioned.

What the female officer said was true. As expected, there were ten bullock carts lined up in front of the courtyard gate, each piled with a mountain of cloth.

The maids in the courtyard were unloading the items one by one with frowns. A slender embroidery girl rolled up her sleeves and picked up two pieces from the car. She turned around and panted slightly and shouted: "Qiu Yi, come and pick me up." !”

A voice came from the courtyard: "If you can't hold it, why don't you hold it first?"

"Oh, believe me, it's faster for two people to carry two horses than for one person to carry one!"

"..."

A dozen palace maids kept coming and going, and the total number of people in the car slowly decreased. Jian Niu looked at them quietly with his deep eyes.

Pei Ye thought for a while, walked to the bullock cart and said with a smile: "Excuse me, do you want to help?"

Several palace maids were startled at the same time. Their eyes first looked at his face, then swept across his clothes from top to bottom, and then paused for a moment on the long sword at his waist... and then their eyes were suddenly pulled back upwards. All focused on the cute jade-black kitten on his shoulder.

"...Which department are you from?" The slender embroiderer put the two pieces of cloth in her arms and looked back at him.

"I'm the guard from the Ming Palace. I happened to be here to handle some business." Pei Ye smiled and stepped forward, easily carrying more than a dozen horses. "I'll give you a helping hand."

The embroidered girl opened her mouth in shock: "...Many, thank you very much!"

The palace ladies were so surprised that they stared at him as he held up five or six more pieces of cloth with his other hand and strode into the courtyard with his chest held high.

With the addition of this heavenly guard, his speed more than doubled. He hugged him more and walked faster. Gradually, the palace maids consciously blocked his steps. Some were stacking preparations next to the bullock cart, and some were in the cloth warehouse. After sorting out the goods, it took less than two hours for all ten carts of cloth to be unloaded.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Pei! Thank you very much!"

"It's just a little effort." Pei Ye sat cross-legged under the court and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. Although the embroiderers had not moved much, their arms were still sore and tired. At this time, they were walking around in the courtyard, busy finishing the finishing touches.

"Master Pei is indeed a guard of the Ming Palace. He must be highly skilled in martial arts." The older embroidered girl smiled and said, "Without your help, these things would really be difficult for us."

"Yes, this is also my first time meeting the guards at Ming Palace. What is Mr. Pei doing here?"

"Master Pei, you are such a beast!"

"Ah, Mr. Pei is so happy to be praised like this by you."

Pei Ye smiled, holding tea and drinking: "Some chores. Do you often have so much cargo to unload?"

"It doesn't happen all the time, but whenever there is a big event, the embroidery shop always has to be busy."

"Clothes for the busy New Year?"

"No, I've just been busy. Now it's another big thing. I have to prepare the masters' wedding gifts."

"Marry?"

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, one read!

"Yes, there will be a big wedding in the palace after the new year. All kinds of gifts and red gauze curtains must be prepared a month in advance."

"Who wants to get married?"

"Huh? Mr. Pei is from Ming Palace. Do you still want to ask us?"

"I've certainly never heard of it."

"...Actually, I don't know. I just started working on it after receiving the job."

There were many emperors in the palace, as well as many relatives. It was normal for some of them to get married. Pei Ye finished her tea and said, "Hey, I want to ask you about some of them, Zhao Wuliang, Xu Si, and Wei Qi. , the first two used to work in Xiguan Bureau, and the latter one was a cook, do any of you know? "

The embroiderers all looked at each other in confusion.

"I have something to ask them."

Since Mr. Pei had a request, the embroidery girls all summoned each other to ask questions. However, after asking around, they all shook their heads, especially the older and leader who said: "I have been working here for more than 20 years, and I often work here. Walking around, you should know everything about this palace, but I have never heard of these names - when were they?"

"Twenty-four years ago."

"Ah... I'm afraid it will be difficult to find. Even if there is no illness or death, Her Royal Highness the Queen once granted amnesty to the palace residents when she ascended the throne. It is difficult to find old people."

"That's it." Pei Ye nodded. He didn't have much hope at all. "Then you have probably never heard of this other person. It used to be said that he was the long history of the Shenwu Army, named Guo You."

"..."

Most of the embroidery girls were still at a loss, but the older one was stunned and said: "If Mr. Pei wants to find this person... he is still in the workshop."

"Huh?"

…

He sat in front of the door and tasted the lunch from Xiuyi Workshop, and then sat idle for more than an hour. When he saw the sun was setting, Pei Ye stood up and raised his sword to say goodbye.

"I just have to go to the Jiaofang." When talking about Guo You, the female officer said.

She originally wanted to send a palace maid to lead the way, but Pei Ye saw that they were busy and refused. When he walked out of the courtyard, the black cat standing on the wall to hide from everyone jumped on his shoulder again.

The Jiaofang is actually adjacent to this complex, but it is far to the north. If we divide Yeting into three, six or nine levels, Jiaofang is considered to be on the upper level. Not only did the people here have a noble status and were born in famous families, but they were also familiar with poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music, and they performed dances at various ceremonies and sacrifices. Enjoy your duties and avoid hard work.

As Pei Ye walked this way, the ground gradually became cleaner, and magnificent pavilions began to appear on both sides. There was a canal in front of the door for the singers to wash their makeup, and shiny grease floated on the water. Some female workers from the Huanyifang were driving a donkey cart, pulling two large buckets of clothes to hand over in front of the door. She knelt on the edge of the cart and handed them down one by one. The two singers held a large bamboo basket to receive the clothes.

Then he saw a head of gray hair that was out of place.

With a thin and stooped figure and some rags that had not been washed for a long time, he was outside the wall, stepping on two stacked stones, climbing on the edge of the wall and struggling to poke his head in, like an old turtle with its neck stretched out. .

The women in front of the door seemed not to be seen. Pei Ye stood and stared for a while, but saw that he didn't try to climb in. He only stared for a while, and then fell down in despair.

Then he stood up unsteadily from the ground, stretched his head and neck to explore the women in front of the door, stared at the old mute and said: "You two wandering girls, is this... Jingshan?"

"No, just go that way." The pretty singer pointed her finger and continued to talk to the female worker in the car about which materials should be washed.

"Could it be that...could it be that...I haven't crossed Yique yet..." the old man murmured blankly.

He raised his head and glanced at the sky to the west, but suddenly he burst into tears, fell to the ground and began to cry: "But the sun has set to the west! I will never... never see Luo Shen again!"

The cry was really sad and gentle. Pei Ye watched quietly for a while and saw him crying and beating the ground. After a while, he staggered up and ran eastward along the canal: "No, no, the sun hasn't set yet... I It’s definitely not too late!”

Pei Ye followed him silently until he reached the end of the canal, where he sat down panting and with tears streaming down his face. He stared at the green garden to the north and murmured: "Are you Heng Gao or Zhi Tian?" …”

Pei Ye squatted down next to him: "Are you okay?"

The old man turned his head suddenly and stared at him. It was a face that was too haggard to describe, with disheveled dirty hair, cheeks that were so thin that the facial bones were exposed, and deep-set eye sockets... embedded in it was a pair of infatuated but infatuated eyes. Very clear eyes.

"You..." He said hoarsely, holding Pei Ye's forearm, and then started crying again, "Are you my charioteer? Charioteer, I can't see Luo Shen. Please point it out to me quickly. She Where exactly is it..."

Pei Ye didn't avoid him, just looked at him and said seriously: "Guo You, what are you looking for?"
