Chapter 120 The Life of a Hero

Gu Qing didn't expect that Li Guangbi and his parents knew each other so well.

No matter how you sound, they don't sound like old friends, but rather like enemies.

"Are you here for revenge?" Gu Qing asked anxiously.

Li Guangbi was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Am I a narrow-minded person? After being beaten by your father, I was really angry, so I gathered a few friends to seek revenge on your father, but in the end... your father still let me go.

He fell to the ground, and your mother stood nearby and didn't even make a move. Her skills were not as good as others, and she could only do nothing."

Li Guangbi sighed: "That was a beating. Your father almost broke my legs. I remember when I was a teenager and I failed to live up to expectations, my father beat me like this. No one has dared to beat me to death like that in many years..."

Seeing the look of reminiscence on Li Guangbi's face, Gu Qing became more and more surprised.

What is this expression? Did being beaten by my father help you regain the long-lost family affection?

Li Guangbi smiled and said: "Your father and I have never known each other before. Later, I felt that your father was a man and his skills were much better than mine, so I invited him to drink. Your father also drank happily and drank me till I was drunk.

Ba Su, from then on, your father and I have been good friends."

His expression dimmed, and Li Guangbi sighed: "When the Zhang family was hunted down by evil thieves, your parents went out to Chang'an overnight to protect the Zhang family. I was working in the Anbei Protectorate at the time. It was only half a month after the incident that I found out that your parents had died.

He died in a fierce battle that night. Later, I wanted to find the descendants of the Gu family. Unfortunately, your parents were very tight-lipped about you and rarely disclosed it during their lifetime. I had no choice but to ask the Zhang family to search for me. Fortunately, God has eyes and you did appear.

.”

Gu Qing asked curiously: "How did Uncle Li know that my nephew came to Chang'an?"

"Zhang Jiuzhang, the minister of Honglu Temple, told me that you joined Zuowei. Haha, last night I hurriedly went into Zuowei's Mansion to ask Zhou Cangcao. He said that you were summoned by His Majesty today. I couldn't disturb you, so I asked again.

After seeing your appearance, Zhou Cangcao said that you are quite handsome, but you look unhappy, and I don’t know who you are angry with..."

Gu Qing sighed.

The first colleague I met in the new unit actually commented on me in this way. I thought he had been impressed by her charm, but I didn't expect that I still looked unhappy in his eyes...

Li Guangbi looked at Gu Qing and said: "Your parents are heroes, there are many old friends in Chang'an City, and there were many people who admired your parents back then. From the dignitaries in the court to the traffickers and lackeys, your parents treated everyone equally. Because of this, they have won the respect of many people."

I admire them. They hunted with the rich and powerful, walked the streets with merchants and traders, drank with celebrities and poets, and helped countless poor families. Almost all of your parents’ income in their lifetime was used to help the poor. Every time I talk to

When he drinks, I pay for the drinks..."

Li Guangbi said with a look of admiration on his face: "As a human being, I am not as good as your parents. They are truly selfless people. In their eyes, all living beings are equal. They have done countless things in their lives to help the strong and the weak.

In the end, he died protecting the loyal people of the court. There are many people in the world who are called 'heroes', and only the two of them deserve to be called 'heroes'. It's a pity that they died too early..."

Gu Qing listened quietly to Li Guangbi's story about his parents. He was originally very unfamiliar with his parents, but now he found that they were vividly alive in his mind.

A picture seemed to appear in front of his eyes. In the picture, there was a man and a woman, one a bold knight and the other a slender woman. The two were drinking with the powerful in Chang'an City, discussing friendship with swordsmen, and the wild poet stood there.

They were reciting poems like crazy on the table, dancing swords in the corridor, and they had personally participated in the endless romance of Chang'an City.

Li Guangbi sighed: "Their lives are so wonderful, it's a pity..."

After a pause, Li Guangbi stared at Gu Qing and said in a deep voice: "Do you know who killed your parents?"

Gu Qing's expression condensed for a moment, then he nodded: "I know."

Li Guangbi said coldly: "The hatred between parents is irreconcilable. Remember his name carefully and don't tell anyone. This person is deeply trusted by the emperor, but you are young and humble and cannot be overthrown. Please bear with it for the time being. Your parents

I will keep my hatred in my heart day and night, and I will not dare or forget it. One day, you and I will be able to kill our enemies with our own hands."

Gu Qing nodded silently.

Li Guangbi glanced at the silverbait bag on his waist and said: "I heard that you were promoted to an official because of your meritorious service in the Chao Kingdom Rebellion. It seems that His Majesty is very fond of you. Today, he gave you the silverbait bag for the first time.

You are more ambitious than I thought."

"Officials of Zuowei, take good care of yourself. The Zhang family and I will find opportunities for promotion for you. If you have any problems, just come to me. In Zuowei, I still mean what I say. There is no such thing as a short-sighted person."

If a bitch dares to bully you, I'll help you kill him."

"Thank you, Uncle Li. My nephew is a man and does his duty and will not cause trouble."

There was a smile in Li Guangbi's eyes: "You have a bright eye and you don't look like an honest person. Do you really know how to do your duty?"

Gu Qing also smiled: "I just came to Chang'an and the situation is unclear. Listen more, read more and talk less. For now, I will do my duty for a while. When I get used to it, I may not be so responsible. I also ask Uncle Li to take more care of my nephew."

Li Guangbi laughed loudly: "I've said it a long time ago, how can a member of the Gu family be a responsible person? I'm afraid you will get into a lot of trouble in the future, but it doesn't matter, as long as you don't offend those powerful people, ordinary minor troubles

I've taken care of it for you."

Then Li Guangbi frowned: "You are a sneaky guy when it comes to drinking. I haven't seen you take a sip for a long time. Come on, drink to win!"

Gu Qing held the wine jar and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, please don't be busy. My nephew came from Shuzhou and brought several jars of good wine he brewed. Is Uncle Li interested in drinking it?"

"Why are you saying it now when there is good wine? Bring it quickly!"

Gu Qing glanced at the table behind him. Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing looked like people on the street and looked up in thought. In the past, the minister of Honglu Temple came to look for him, and now Zuo Wei Zuolang came to look for him. The two shopkeepers were not only excited, but also became more and more curious.

, so he followed to see how many connections Gu Qing had in Chang'an City.

"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Go get the wine quickly." Gu Qing said in a funny tone.

Hao Donglai stood up with a smile, went to the backyard, and quickly brought two jars of wine.

Gu Qing handed a jar to Li Guangbi and said, "Uncle Li, this wine is quite strong. It's best to drink it in small sips..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Guangbi grabbed the wine jar, raised his head and took a big gulp, then he choked and coughed, his face turned red, he pointed at the wine jar, and then at Gu Qing.

Gu Qing said innocently: "Uncle Li is very impatient. This wine is very strong and ordinary people would not dare to drink it like this."

After coughing for a long time, Li Guangbi finally recovered and said, "Did you brew this wine yourself?"

"yes."

Li Guangbi laughed and scolded: "Looking at you raising your hands while walking, you don't have any skills at all, but you are better at drinking. Your parents drink happily, but you are better than them. You can actually brew such strong wine. We are really a family."

After chatting a lot about Chang'an City with Li Guangbi, Li Guangbi finally left drunk. Before leaving, he rudely took away the high-alcohol wine brought by Gu Qing.

After sending Li Guangbi to the carriage, Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing came over and said excitedly: "Young Master Shao Lang is amazing! Two big shots came to Chang'an the day after he arrived. I wonder if anyone else will come next..."

Night had fallen, and the streets outside were still busy with people coming and going. Gu Qing looked at the sky and said, "It should be gone..."

As soon as he finished speaking, another carriage stopped outside the inn door. Behind the carriage were several young female attendants. There was no movement after the carriage stopped. A female attendant came in, looked around first, found the shopkeeper and asked: "

Did a young man named Gu stay in this store yesterday?"

Gu Qing was sitting in the dining hall and suddenly showed a bitter smile. The shopkeeper also smiled and pointed at Gu Qing who was sitting in the dining hall and said with a smile: "If you want to find a young man named Gu, this is the one. He has been here today."

Two groups of people came looking for him."

The female attendant stepped forward and looked him over, and when he was about to ask, the curtain of the carriage opened, and a voluptuous woman wearing a white veil walked into the store, walked directly in front of Gu Qing, and looked at Gu Qing's face carefully,

Youyou sighed softly: "Like him..."

Covered by white gauze, Gu Qing couldn't see her face, but he could only see a sad look in her eyes, and a strong feeling of unspoken affection lingering in her eyes.

Gu Qing had no choice but to stand up and salute: "Excuse me, your Majesty..."
