Chapter 406 Discussion
"Miss, the city lord... the magistrate wants to see you."

Gu Qingcheng is tidying up and saluting in the room. It has been two days since the river was officially opened to water. In the past two days, Gu Qingcheng and her sister have checked everywhere together. The canals in each village still need to be designed slowly according to the actual situation, which is a matter for each village. , she believes that the city lord will handle it well.

When I opened the door, I saw the black dragon outside who was about to knock on the door. Gu Qingcheng glanced at him inquiringly. The black dragon was not used to speaking, and he changed his words a little awkwardly. Seeing him like this, Gu Qingcheng patted him on the shoulder in a funny way. Followed people into the carriage.

City Lord, oh, it should be the government order now, and he is sitting side by side with Nan Gongyin at this time, the changes in the identities of the two, speaking of the current government order cannot be equal to the prince, but they don’t pay attention to this, and The city lord is not a government order who was promoted through the normal imperial examinations, so he doesn't have many official customs.

Grand Master Qin was not in the government office at this time, because of his own arrangements, he had already set foot on the road back to Beijing ahead of schedule. When Gu Qingcheng came in, he saw two men who were astonishingly handsome but with very different temperaments looking up at him at the same time. Breathing could not help but pause for a moment.

"It's rare for the two of you to sit and talk together. Is there something wrong with calling me here?"

Originally, Gu Qingcheng thought that because she was about to leave Jiangzhou, the city lord was willing to confide in her, explain his identity or have other open and honest discussions, but the moment she saw Nangong Yin, she knew what she was thinking. Broken.

This man is really, he has already promised her to go out of the mining area and change her previous lifestyle, but he is still hiding and unwilling to tell the truth.

But it's not incomprehensible, if he is really a descendant of a criminal minister, or some other traitorous identity, Gu Qingcheng will be powerless at that time, but it doesn't look like it, forget it, let's talk, anyway, it's about Jiangzhou , Nangong Mo knew it in his heart, including the matter of letting the city lord be the government order was also approved by him.

"I'm looking for Miss because I want to talk about something, I don't know what the prince is doing."

The voice of the city lord was still as cold and ruthless as ever. He took a sip of the tea in the cup and said without turning his neck. Nangong Yin looked sullen and clenched his palms into fists as if they were on the verge of eruption. But there is a difference in status, and a little carelessness will end in an unhappy end.

However, Gu Qingcheng's relationship between these two people did not look as tense as it seemed on the surface. There were some inexplicable differences. She decided to stay put and observe.

"Let's talk, I'll come back to you later."

These words were said to Gu Qingcheng, who also didn't even look at the city lord, and left with a gloomy face, looking at Nangong Yin's back, Gu Qingcheng turned back in a daze, and opened his mouth in doubt.

"What's the matter, did you make him angry?"

It shouldn't be, Nangong Yin has always been a person with a cold face and a warm heart. All the way from Jinling to Jiangzhou, no matter whether he was dealing with the people, the victims of the disaster, or even the Grand Master Qin, he never lost his composure. Now facing a Even if someone I just met can lose his temper like this, it's no wonder that Gu Qingcheng immediately put his hat on the city lord.

"I don't have that ability. Who knows what's wrong with him. Come and sit down. I have something to tell you."

Seeing that he suddenly became serious, Gu Qingcheng didn't bother with Nangong Yin's attitude anymore, walked over and sat in the seat where Nangong Yin had just sat, and looked at the city lord seriously.

"...It's actually not a big deal, you don't have to be so nervous."

Seeing her sitting upright, the city lord said with a smile, Gu Qingcheng was speechless for a moment, and clicked his tongue to tell him to speak quickly.

"Knowing that you are leaving soon, I have prepared some gifts for you. It is not that I do not cooperate with some things, but it is not as simple as you imagined. Although I don't know your real identity, but I am so close to the prince. It's not a simple background."

"Don't worry about me. My own family affairs naturally need to be resolved by myself. After returning home, don't mention Jiangzhou's affairs unless necessary. I will deliver a letter to the prince if necessary."

Gu Qingcheng realized the real reason behind Nangongyin's angrily leaving just now. She had discussed with Nangongyin about the city lord before, and he probably talked about it just now, but she didn't Understand the thoughts of the city lord.

After thinking about it for a while, he agreed, but he still couldn't overcome his curiosity, so he exchanged his guess with the city lord.

"This is something that I asked someone to investigate before. It may not be accurate, but since the city lord has his own considerations, I won't force it."

She took out the things she collected one by one and put them on the side table in front of her. The city lord's expression remained unchanged, and he casually flipped through the things she collected. Except for the darker and darker eyes, she couldn't see anything else at all. What happened, Gu Qingcheng lamented in his heart that this is an old fox after all, and he didn't change his expression.

"Little girl is very capable. I really didn't expect to find this in a short period of time, but it's good to stop here. If you go deeper, it will be dangerous. Don't be obedient this time. It's all From my heart."

When he spoke again, the voice of the city lord was much colder than when they met for the first time. Gu Qingcheng couldn't help frowning. She brought a lot of things, and it wasn't just about the family. Knowing what caused him to react like this, she was a little annoyed for a while, but she wasn't that inquisitive.

"Since the city lord has said so, I will naturally not do something irritating wishful thinking, so you can rest assured, is there anything else, I still have things to do, let's go ahead."

Thinking of Gu Qingcheng, he was still a little angry, and facing the city lord, he didn't have the good mood at the beginning. He felt like he had fed the dog in vain, and his tone subconsciously calmed down. There was some inexplicable embarrassment between the two of them. He had vaguely guessed the reason for Nangong Yin leaving in a hurry, and now he really felt it.

The city lord didn't speak, and Gu Qingcheng didn't stay any longer. He got up and left, remembering what Nan Gongyin said just now, and went out to the side hall. The people who were angry didn't notice a slight sigh behind them.

"What's wrong with you, you don't look very well."

Nangong Yin didn't need to tidy up and salute by himself. He was drinking tea leisurely at this time, which was a rare leisure time. He was a little surprised to see Gu Qingcheng rushing in with an angry face, but he hadn't seen her angry much yet.

"Nothing, didn't you just say something happened?"
