"It's your son." The driver turned to one side, and then gave Gu Yuqi a fist, "This girl, just now, I offended you by speaking rudely." Although it was an apology. But Gu Yuqi couldn't tell his sincerity.
Gu Yuqi was already upset in her heart, so she gave him a sideways glance, just snorted and walked forward.
"My lord, that girl is ignoring people! Let's go." The driver turned his head into the carriage and said, and was about to drive forward, but was stopped by the people in the carriage.
"Wait a minute."
"What else is there, sir?" the coachman asked puzzled.
"It's very late at night. She must have encountered some difficulties walking in the night with a girl. You go and ask, if you can help, we will help." The young man in the car said slowly, his voice was like a clear spring flowing , with an indescribably warm breath.
"Young master! She will go her own way at night, and we will go our own way. It's better not to ask." The coachman said.
"Presumptuous." The voice of the people in the carriage seemed to be a little harsher, the coachman had no choice but to respond, jumped out of the carriage, and quickly ran two steps to catch up with Gu Yuqi. "Girl, my son asked if you need help."
"No need." Gu Yuqi was annoyed, and replied angrily.
"This girl is so rude." The coachman felt ashamed, and went back to report to his young master, "Young master, she said no. Let's go."
"You are so rude, maybe you disturbed her, let me tell you." After speaking, someone opened the curtain of the carriage from inside, and a handsome figure got out of the carriage.
"Girl stay." The man quickly walked a few steps, caught up with Gu Yuqi, and gave Gu Yuqi a deep bow, "My servant was very rude just now, I apologize to the girl for him."
Gu Yuqi glared at him impatiently. He lowered his head, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but his figure looked good. He was wearing a moon-white robe, with wide sleeves fluttering slowly in the night wind, and the hairband of the same color fluttered with the wind. Moving, with a sense of elegance and elegance.
"Get out of the way." Gu Yuqi said coldly.
"Yes, yes. Get out of the way immediately." The man seemed to have a good temper, and hurriedly moved aside to make way for Gu Yuqi.
Gu Yuqi bypassed him and continued forward. He heard footsteps behind him, and he quickly chased after him. Gu Yuqi raised her eyebrows, "You are so annoying!" she said angrily. "Don't follow me anymore!" "Girl, don't be angry." The man hurriedly apologized. "I just saw the girl walking alone in the night, so I got out of the car and asked, but if there is anything I need help with."
"No! No need! Thank you! Walk slowly!" Gu Yuqi said irritably, "Don't follow!" She didn't even look at that person lazily.
Why did I meet such a mother-in-law! It's really annoying.
She was already in a bad mood, and now she was stuck in her chest with an indescribable irritability, she had nowhere to express it, she just wished she could slap that person twice in the mouth to get rid of the bad breath stuck in her heart . But she was angry with herself, so why did she want to scold others? Gu Yuqi was too annoyed and couldn't stand it, that's why she thought so.
She just wanted to go home right away, then cover herself with a quilt and sleep, and forget about Du Xia.
But can you really forget it? Gu Yuqi herself didn't believe it. She has come to this point, there is nothing to turn back, Du Xia's life will be much better without her. And what her appearance brought to Du Xia was not a blessing, but a disaster. She wanted to understand all these, and she couldn't tell Du Xia earnestly that she didn't let him come to her for his own good. Du Xia wouldn't Listening to her, on the contrary, you will feel that she really cares about him, and thus cling to her even tighter.
It would be good for Du Xia to break it off one day earlier, before he gets stuck in the mud.
Letting go is the best ending for Du Xia.
But what the hell is this person who popped up now! Why can't you get rid of it like a dog's skin plaster!
After Gu Yuqi finished speaking, she turned around and left. She pricked up her ears and listened, but the man didn't follow, so Gu Yuqi felt a little better.
Night Breeze caused her thoughts to fluctuate, and every time she recalled Du Xia's pale face just now, she couldn't restrain a burst of heartache, and it was all her fault.
There was the sound of horseshoes behind him, presumably that person got into the carriage. Gu Yuqi flashed towards the side of the road, meaning to let the carriage pass quickly, but she didn't expect that the carriage followed behind her.
If Gu Yuqi walked fast, the car would drive fast, if Gu Yuqi walked slowly, the car would drive slowly, as if she had made up her mind to follow her.
Gu Yuqi finally couldn't help it anymore, stopped, and looked back at the driver, "What do you mean?" She said angrily. "Why do you always follow me!"
"This girl speaks so domineeringly, and the road is facing the sky on both sides, how can it be said that we followed the girl!" The driver laughed.
"Then you go first!" Gu Yuqi really felt that her patience had been challenged like never before, so she simply stood aside and waited for the carriage to pass first.
"Hey, if you tell us to go, we won't go!" the coachman said with a smile.
"You!" Gu Yuqi understood now that the master and the servant had spent time with her!
"Don't be rude." The gentle voice in the carriage continued, he raised the curtain and looked out at Gu Yuqi. There was a lantern hanging in front of the carriage, and the interior of the carriage was also lit, illuminating his appearance. .
He has a pair of gentle and bright eyes, eyebrows slanted into the temples, a high nose bridge and moist lips. When he smiles, there are two small dimples on his cheeks, which are very provocative. His eyes are gentle and moist , looked at Gu Yuqi with embarrassment, and the moon-white robe set him off very fresh and bookish.
"Don't blame the girl, and don't be afraid. I just saw the girl walking at night, so I want to give the girl a ride." He arched his hands towards Gu Yuqi, and bowed politely, "Since the girl doesn't like it, I won't force it. Be careful, girl, I'll take the first step."
As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling face with your hand. Seeing this man is polite, he looks like a modest gentleman, and he has a bookish air all over him. He shouldn't be a bad guy. He is polite and thoughtful, so he didn't lose his temper at him again. reason.
"Thank you very much." Gu Yuqi also nodded at that person, "Hurry up and go." The most important thing is not to bother her!
"En." The man nodded, then put down the curtain, and said to the coachman, "Go, continue on the road."
The coachman raised his whip and slapped it in the air. The carriage ran forward tick-tock, and disappeared at the end of the road after a while.
After Gu Yuqi returned to her room, she fell headlong on her bed, and pulled up the quilt to cover herself up.
She was in a bad mood and was very tired, but she couldn't fall asleep. She kept thinking about Du Xia in her previous life, and wanted to find every moment when he existed beside her from her memory. It's a pity that there are so few.
She can remember that she was carried into the palace wearing a wedding dress in her previous life. At that time, she was married in as a concubine, and she couldn't even wear a red wedding dress.
The Xitang was set up in the small courtyard where she later lived. In a small room, a happy character was hung in the middle of the main hall, and a pair of red candles were lit in front of it. After that, there was nothing else to indicate that this was Xitang. something.
She was helped in by Yanzhi, there were no guests, it seemed like she was standing with Yanzhi in such a small wedding hall.
She waited for a while before someone stuffed a stalk of red silk into her hand. She looked quietly through the gap under the hijab, and she saw that it was a red dress.
At that time, she was so stupid, she thought that the person who came was Yun Ke, and she worshiped the world with him full of joy, God knows how pious she is. She has never believed in ghosts and gods, but at that moment she sincerely prayed to God, hoping that Yun Ke would slowly pay attention to her and fall in love with her from that moment on, and she also silently vowed that she would treat Yun Ke well all her life and serve him Consider, bearing children for him.
But just after worshiping the heaven and the earth, a gust of wind blew off the red hipa on her head, and only then did she see clearly the appearance of the people around her.
Where is Yun Ke in the red dress? It's a handsome young man with strange eyebrows. Although he is handsome, he shouldn't be standing in that position.
At that moment, a sense of humiliation of being cheated hit her heart, she raised her hand and slapped the boy's cheek fiercely, the boy's head was immediately deflected by her, and his face was smeared. It swelled instantly.
"My subordinate, Du Xia, is the prince's bodyguard." She heard his calm voice.
"Where's Yun Ke!" She asked angrily.
"My lord is busy and not in the palace, so I ordered the younger one to marry the young lady to start the marriage on his behalf." Du Xia continued to say with his hands down.
Instead, at that moment, Gu Yuqi's heart turned cold, she laughed loudly, and approached Du Xia, the young man's quiet eyes became a little flustered as she approached, he deliberately straightened his face, letting his The back is very straight.
"What about the bridal chamber?" Gu Yuqi smiled lightly, "He won't even ask you to do the bridal chamber for him." Her eyes were full of sadness at that time.
"The subordinate is only responsible for worshiping the heaven and the earth on behalf of the prince." Du Xia said calmly, "As for the others, the subordinate does not know."
"Go find Yunke!" Gu Yuqi poured out all her resentment on him, and punched and kicked him, but Du Xia still stood upright like a pines and cypresses, motionless, not even the tip of her eyebrows. Move it.
It wasn't until Gu Yuqi was tired from beating that she yelled at him, "Get out!", then he slowly said to her, "My lord said, if Aunt Gu is tired, she should rest first, and my subordinates will leave."
Gu Yuqi sighed for a long time, this was the first time she met Du Xia in her previous life.
Unexpectedly, in the previous life, she told Du Xia to tell him to get out, and in this life she yelled at him again.
Tears had soaked through her pillow unconsciously, and she hurriedly raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes.
Forget it, it's all over, and it's useless to think about it.
The next day, Gu Yuqi said that she was sick and did not leave the room, which shocked Liang Huaiyu, and even called a doctor. The doctor came to see it, but found nothing wrong, but Gu Yuqi looked like she had a serious illness. Sick, the whole person has no spirit.
The doctor could only say that it was caused by overthinking, and prescribed some tranquilizing medicine. After taking it, Gu Yuqi fell into a deep sleep.
She fell asleep until the next morning.
A few days later, the gate of the Liang Mansion was opened early, and the scarlet carpet was spread all the way from the mansion to the road outside. There were a lot of horses and carriages in front of the door. Anyone who cared to stop and take a look, would find these carriages They all belong to respectable families in Kuizhou City.
The Lotus Appreciation Conference was held as scheduled, and the inside and outside of the Liang Mansion were full of joy. The foyer was newly decorated, and the inside was tidy and tidy.
Since Gu Yuqi scolded Du Xia away, she has been so energetic. She tried her best to keep herself busy, so that she would forget that Du Xia once existed.
The Lotus Appreciation Conference was held with great momentum with the full participation of Gu Yuqi. The lotus flowers were naturally in full bloom. Gu Yuqi also asked people to set up a large row of tables in the yard. The tables were covered with snow-white tablecloths. There are all kinds of snacks, melons and fruits, and the cakes made by Daimei are also beautifully arranged.
Gu Yuqi actually copied the modern cold meal meeting to ancient times.
The officials and wives of Kuizhou City had never seen such a novel decoration before, and all the acquaintances gathered together and talked in a low voice.
In the courtyard, Gu Yuqi ordered people to set up a lot of big parasols, which were placed on the lawn, like huge flowers blooming gorgeously, making the courtyard more colorful.
What made those wives even more novel was that the various fruit juices provided in the Liang Mansion were served in different cups, and some of them had small umbrellas on them. After drinking the juice, he quietly hid those small paper umbrellas, ready to take them back to play with.
The Madam of the Guarding Department is naturally a compliment. After Liang Huaiyu's reminder last time, she has ordered people to gather all the kittens in the mansion to the backyard to find someone to feed them.
She also asked the doctor to read the prescription left by Liang Huaiyu, and there was no problem. She followed Liang Huaiyu's words and took it for a few times, and now she feels very good. If the child in her womb can be born safely, then Liang Huaiyu will be the guardian's great benefactor.
That's why she was very kind to Liang Huaiyu, even Mrs. Zhenshou Si was like this, and others dared not put on the majesty of an official wife in front of Liang Huaiyu, not to mention her family background is not low, she is from the Liang family in the south of the Yangtze River.
Liang Huaiyu and Gu Yuqi are all dressed in a low-key manner today, and their own treats are not fake, but the guests who come are all the wives and young ladies of officials and eunuchs in Kuizhou City. of.
Liang Huaiyu accompanied the wives to talk, so Gu Yuqi naturally took a group of young ladies to play in the lake.
At the end of the day, the guests and the host had a good time, and before leaving, Liang Huaiyu was very considerate, and each family prepared a small gift, which was a golden wish.
This caused the wives and young ladies of all the prefectures to talk nonsense. They have seen generous ones, but they have never seen such generous ones. They are gold when they make a move, and every family has them. For a while, every family has made friends with this mother and daughter. It meant that I saw that the first offer was gold, and I don't know what to give when I get acquainted with each other later.
After this banquet, Liang Mansion became even more famous in Kuizhou City.
After seeing Gu Yuqi's appearance, the wives of various prefectures more or less became more or less thoughtful. This family is so rich, and the daughter is born with an alluring appearance. If she can be married back, wouldn't the wealth be inexhaustible and inexhaustible, not to mention that Gu Yuqi is still an only child, after a hundred years of the Liang family, wouldn't the Liang family of Nuoda and all the wealth in it be Gu Yuqi? Alone
Gu Yuqi obviously didn't expect that the side effect of the banquet would be that a matchmaker would come to ask her birthday the next day, which made her really dumbfounded.
Liang Huaiyu was quite happy.
What she had always been worried about was that her daughter could not find a good family. Now that the matchmaker came to the door, it proved that Gu Yuqi was still very popular. So she seriously sent Chun Xing to scout out the young talents in Kuizhou City.
It's not that Gu Yuqi doesn't know, she just sees Liang Huaiyu happy, so she can't bear to interrupt her, anyway, Liang Huaiyu won't engage her behind her back, so the final decision is still in her hands, so she doesn't worry about anything .
Yun Ke, who was far away in the capital, could not sit still after receiving Wang Yan's news.
He knows Gu Yuqi's appearance best. In Kuizhou, she is like a golden phoenix.
The thought of Liang Huaiyu starting to look for a man for Gu Yuqi everywhere, he felt like sitting on pins and needles.
Emperor Jing had the intention of getting Gu Huaizhong to recognize Gu Yuqi again, but the old fox in Gu Huaizhong didn't know what medicine he had taken wrongly, so he refused to take action for a long time, and pretended to be sick at home. Come to do your best.
If Gu Yuqi can't return to the Marquis Mansion, she will definitely not be able to be married back as a concubine, which is very embarrassing for Yun Ke.
He had originally planned that when Gu Huaizhong recognized Gu Yuqi back, he would immediately go to his father's side to ask Gu Yuqi to marry him and return to his residence. In fact, not only Yun Ke thinks this way, but even Yun Yi thinks so.
Ever since he sent Zhang Wanyi back to the Zhang Mansion in Jinghu that night, he has completely lost interest in Zhang Wanyi.
Zhang Wanyi can't say she's not beautiful, she always likes to wear white clothes, her demeanor is dignified and beautiful, like a lotus in water, that's because she doesn't know what she is actually like, now Yun Yi knows that Zhang Wanyi's appearance is just a fake Yes, I have an indescribable disgust for her in my heart. Not to mention that after she got married, relying on herself as the daughter of the prime minister, she had a lot of control over Yunyi, and even he had to set rules when he went to other concubines.
It really made Yunyi hate her more and more. But on the surface, he still made false claims with Zhang Wanyi, and anyway, he still wanted to borrow the power of Prime Minister Zhang.
The more I hate Zhang Wanyi, the more I miss Gu Yuqi. Yun Yi is a beauty who likes to be lively and fragrant. Most of his concubines are the ones with bright eyebrows and enchanting bodies. Zhang Wanyi's clean and elegant beauty is not Yun Yi's favorite, but Gu Yuqi's appearance is not. It is most in line with Yunyi's standard.
He also specially called Gu Siyang to the palace, and he got acquainted with those who came and went. Once he got Gu Siyang drunk and tricked him into drawing a portrait of his sister.
Gu Siyang has been taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, and his skills in pen and ink are also extraordinary. Although he is a little drunk, he can't tell the difference between the south, the south, and the north, but he also has a lot of love for Gu Yuqi in his heart, so he picks up the pen like a god, and it's just a few strokes. Draw all of Gu Yuqi's charm on paper.
After finishing the painting, he shook his head, saying that his brushwork was not strong enough, and the appearance and demeanor of the people he drew were not as good as real people.
The person in the painting is already stunning, if it is not as good as the real person, what will happen to the real person
Yun Yi got this painting like a precious treasure, and immediately ordered someone to frame it and hang it in his study, and enjoy it when he has free time, the more he looks at it, the more he likes it, the more he likes it, the more itchy his heart, I can't wait to embrace such a beauty in my arms so that I can be tender for a while.
Gu Yuqi's portrait was naturally seen by Zhang Wanyi, and her teeth itch from hatred. When she was still young, Gu Yuqi made her suffer from being dumb once, and she remembered it all. Although there was no intersection in the future, Zhang Wanyi, who was as proud as a peacock, had already told her about the scene she experienced in the eldest princess's mansion. Consider it a shame.
At that time, she was a few years older than Gu Yuqi. She asked herself that she had always acted cautiously, but she still suffered from that little girl.
It's even better now, that dead girl has been expelled from the Marquis Mansion, as usual, she should be the object of ridicule by all people, but it is a plague, which makes the current majesty look favorably on that dead girl, and doesn't know that dead girl The girl burned some high incense.
Now even Yunyi doesn't know where to get her portrait and put it in the study, where is Zhang Wanyi's face facing? Speaking of which, she is the main concubine of King Jing, but King Jing is too lazy to even look at her, but stares at a portrait in a daze every day.
She knew that Emperor Jing wanted Gu Yuqi to return to Dingyuanhou's Mansion, and if she really came back, she was afraid that her unworthy husband-in-law would ask her to marry her back immediately.
This woman had such wrists when she was a child, but now she doesn't know what she will look like, and she has a natural vixen face, and a portrait of her husband is fascinated. If a real person enters the mansion , even if she can only be a side concubine now, she is afraid that within two years, the position of her main concubine will be given up to that dead girl.
No, she will never let this happen.
The fact that the crown princess poisoned the crown prince's side concubine has been found out, and now the crown prince is getting more and more shameless in front of Emperor Jing. If the crown prince is deposed, the most likely person to be crowned crown prince is his husband. She would never allow Gu Yuqi, that wild girl who appeared out of nowhere to take her place.
She is the main concubine of Prince Jing, the future crown princess, and the future empress position is hers.
As soon as Zhang Wanyi got angry, she went into the palace to find her mother-in-law, and cried to her mother-in-law.
Concubine De has never liked Gu Yuqi, but her son likes it. On the one hand, her son keeps urging her, and on the other hand, her daughter-in-law keeps crying. Disgusted.
This person is not in the capital, and he still has the ability to turn their family into a pot of porridge, which really makes Concubine De hate it.
So she also made up her mind to pay attention, as soon as Gu Yuqi returned to the capital, she would immediately ask His Majesty to point her to a family, whoever she wanted to marry, as long as it wasn't his son!
She doesn't want her son's house to be in trouble.
