A Female Official's Romantic Affair - Chapter 446 Reciting Unofficial Histories

After leaving Lu Xun's residence, Gu Qingyin headed straight for the Jingzhao Prefecture.
She had only been in office as the Vice Magistrate of Jingzhao for a few days, but she had not returned to the Gu residence since. She was busy running around all day, which was quite fulfilling.
Because she was preoccupied with official duties, she only sent a minor official to the mansion to report that she was safe and sound every day. Naturally, she was unaware that Ning Feiran was waiting for her at the Gu mansion until late at night every day.
This was Gu Qingyin's first night shift since taking up her post at the Jingzhao Prefecture.
She was no stranger to night duty, as the Censorate had this rule, but the Jingzhao Prefecture was a little different.
It's not just about staying up late to write documents and review files; it's also about dealing with all sorts of unexpected situations that happen at night.
Gu Qingyin jokingly asked Wang Fang what the worst situation he would encounter if he were on night duty.
Wang Fang raised his thick eyebrows slightly and casually remarked that it was nothing more than an official being assassinated, a foreigner arriving in the capital, or the Ministry of Justice making a fuss and trying to smear the Jingzhao Prefecture.
Gu Qingyin listened with a calm expression, but her heart was already churning with turmoil.
The situation facing the Jingzhao Prefecture was far more dangerous and unpredictable than she had imagined.
The candlelight flickered, casting a warm yellow glow in the room.
The large desk, made of Phoebe zhennan wood, is piled high with official documents. The desk is fully equipped with writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, and the faint fragrance of Xuan paper permeates every corner of the room.
Gu Qingyin sat with her head on the table, flipping through files of unsolved cases from previous years.
She wore a dark red court dress, her black hair was tied up in a high bun, her eyebrows and eyes were lowered, and her slightly curled eyelashes left light shadows on her pale blue eye sockets.
Over the course of more than a hundred years in this dynasty, the Jingzhao Prefecture has accumulated hundreds of unsolved cases, many of which are bizarre, unpredictable, and complex. Without careful attention, it is impossible to make sense of them.
Gu Qingyin was used to writing memorials and reviewing official documents at the Censorate, but after reviewing four or five cases, she looked tired, and her clear, watery eyes closed halfway.
Just as she was about to put her hands down, have a sip of tea, and rest for a moment, her entire gaze was drawn to a piece of writing on silk that was underneath.
The silk had turned yellow, and the wrinkles on its surface could not be smoothed out, but the characters on it, soaked in ink, were still eye-catching and clear. The three characters "Li Jinghua" instantly jumped into her eyes.
This unofficial history, whose author is unknown and who slipped it into the archives, tells the story of the romantic affair between the former Empress Dowager Li Jinghua and Prince Xiao Yizhi.
In order to force Xiao Yizhi to divorce his wife, Li Jinghua resorted to seduction and then arranged for his wife to witness the whole thing, completely cutting off Xiao Yizhi's escape route.
Gu Qingyin was so engrossed in watching that she didn't notice that the prayer beads she kept in her inner pocket had already developed cracks, and now, for some unknown reason, they suddenly broke open.
Her eyebrows and eyes remained clear and bright, with only a slight upward curve at the ends of her eyebrows, adding a touch of charm to her eyes. Under the candlelight, she was vivid and beautiful.
She stood up, swaying gracefully, took out a dusty bronze mirror from the corner, and slowly let her black hair fall loose in front of the mirror. Her elegant neck was straight, her chin was raised proudly, and the smile on her lips gradually deepened.
The door to the case room was pushed open, and Lu Xun, dressed in a dark green court robe, still carrying the chill of the night, strode in.
"You've come." Gu Qingyin turned around, her expression both coquettish and shy, her eyes filled with tender affection.
Lu Xun was taken aback and stopped in his tracks.
He had come to check on things because he was worried that things might not be peaceful in the capital these days, and since it was Gu Qingyin's first time on night duty, she might not be able to handle any situation that might arise.
But he wasn't doing this for Gu Qingyin's sake. As the Prefect of Jingzhao, if anything went wrong, he would be implicated. It would be better to intervene in advance and save himself some trouble.
Therefore, he came in a hurry because he was inspecting official business. He did not think about the proper etiquette for meeting other women late at night, after all, Gu Qingyin was the first female official in the Jingzhao Prefecture in many years.
At this moment, Gu Qingyin was completely different from the person he had known about her in just a few days. Her expression and tone of voice were like those of a completely different person.
Lu Xun was puzzled, but he composed himself and solemnly asked, "Is Lord Gu still reviewing the files?"
Gu Qingyin's eyes flickered slightly as she slowly turned around, saying softly, "So, you don't recognize me anymore?"
Lu Xun stared at her with surprise and doubt in his eyes.
Gu Qingyin met his gaze, slowly stepped forward, her dark red court robe completely unfurled, revealing her snow-white, semi-transparent inner garment.
