"Miss, miss, it's not good, the princess has summoned you!" Chunni rushed in with sweat on her head.
Yueniang threw away the sewing in her hand and her eyes widened.
"Miss, the princess has trapped you here for five years, why are you now..."
She couldn't bear it anymore!
Gu Qingguan calmly put down the medical book in his hand, raised his quiet eyes slightly, and sighed: "It's time."
"What time is it?" Yueniang grabbed the young lady's sleeve and said in a trembling voice.
Qingguan did not answer her, but said softly: "Yue Niang, you stay and let Chunni accompany me."
"Miss, slave..." Yueniang said half of her words before swallowing them. She is Qian's personal maid. As soon as the princess sees her, she will think of Qian, which is not good for the young lady.
"Slave... please be careful, young lady!" Yueniang said with difficulty.
Gu Qingguan smiled softly, with a bright smile.
"Don't worry, I just want to test the depth of the water in this house first."
In the past five years, Gu Qingwan rarely walked out of his yard from the front door.
The two maids at the time had long been driven out of the courtyard by her means. Now those who can work in the courtyard are all her people.
This small courtyard is like a paradise, blocking the chaos inside the mansion. This allowed her to walk steadily step by step in this world.
Now that that person is here, and he will probably ask her to see a doctor, then... it's time to go out for a walk.
Gu Qingguan paused and looked back, his eyes passing over the ivy on the courtyard wall, and a light flashed in his eyes.
Aunt, Qingguan, you must open your eyes and see how I can help you fight back those who bullied you back then.
"Give...Give..."
"Miss, please say hello to mother!" Chunni whispered from the side.
"Here... give... mother... dear... please... say hello" Gu Qingwan clapped her hands and said with a smile.
Princess Huayang looked at Miss Six who was helped in and sneered in her heart. He does have a good appearance, but it's a pity that he is stupid and can't tell the difference between good and bad.
"As a girl, I have to set some rules to avoid being laughed at when I come to my husband's house in the future. From tomorrow on, I will not do anything in the morning or dusk for a day."
Chunni said hurriedly: "Princess, my lady's body..."
"How dare you, a lowly servant like you, has no right to speak in front of the princess." Granny Tan said sternly.
Princess Huayang picked up the tea cup and said calmly: "The more this happens, the more discipline is needed. Is it possible that Miss Six will be an old girl all her life and stay in the Gu Mansion. My son, come to mother. Today, we will serve as slaves." Let’s learn tea!”
Gu Qingguan smiled stupidly and stood still, with dull and empty eyes that showed no luster.
Princess Huayang gave Granny Tan a look.
Grandma Tan understood, stepped forward and took Miss Sixth's hand, secretly exerted her strength, and said with a smile: "The princess wants to teach Miss Sixth the rules. Come and pour Miss Sixth a cup of tea."
The maid held the tea tray, and Chunni just took one look at it and broke into a cold sweat. The tea must be scalding hot. On such a hot day, if it falls on the young lady...
"Miss Sixth, you have to pick up the cup first, hold it high, bend your knees..."
Gu Qingwan looked at Grandma Tan's big mouth opening and closing, and suddenly danced and said: "Yes... Qingwan... yes!"
The maid was startled and subconsciously stepped back. With a shake of her hand, the tea cup in the tray fell to the ground lightly, and the hot tea splashed onto the ground.
Princess Huayang's expression changed, and Granny Tan, with quick eyesight and quick hands, raised her hand and slapped the maidservant.
"The little hooves seeking death can't even hold a tea tray."
Gu Qingwan took advantage of the situation and burst into tears, the sound of which was loud and loud.
A slender figure opened the curtain and came in, pulled Gu Qingwan behind him, and said angrily: "What did you do to Qingwan?"
Princess Huayang dusted off her clothes, stood up and said with a smile: "Second Master is here, and I am teaching her the rules. The child is older, and it is not good to continue like this. In the past, I was negligent."
Gu Songtao took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "I won't bother the county leader to do such a trivial matter."
"What are you talking about, Second Master? After all, I am also her mother." Not to be outdone, Princess Huayang took a step forward and looked directly into the man's eyes.
Gu Songtao couldn't resist the princess's sharp eyes, tilted his head and said softly: "She is different from others, no matter how hard you teach her, you can't teach her. Why bother?"
Princess Huayang pulled a smile from the corner of her mouth and said: "Second Master runs to Chunhua Courtyard every day, so naturally he doesn't have the heart. I am her aunt, so I should pay some attention."
"you… "
Gu Songtao's breath was stuck in his throat and he couldn't spit it out or swallow it.
Chunhua Courtyard is the courtyard of the deceased Qian. After Qian's death, Gu Songtao wrote a plaque in her name as a memorial.
"Second Master, do you think this is true?" Princess Huayang asked forcefully.
Gu Songtao suddenly felt like a deflated rubber ball, and said with a slumped face: "It won't happen again. The child is still young, so don't bother."
Princess Huayang smiled proudly and said: "Come here, seal the Chunhua Courtyard. No one is allowed to open the door to the Second Master without my order."
Gu Songtao's face changed drastically, his body was shaking slightly, but he didn't dare to say a word.
Princess Huayang raised her chin high, walked past the man with her head held high, took Gu Qingwan into her arms, gently stroked her back, and said with soft eyes: "Good boy, go back and stay well in the courtyard. Just stay there and tell your mother what you want to eat or play.”
Gu Qingguan thought slightly about being rewarded with a candy by giving her a slap. She hugged Princess Huayang tightly with her backhand and jumped up and down: "Eat... eat... Qingguan... I want something delicious!"
Disgust flashed across Princess Huayang's face and she couldn't keep up the act. She pushed Gu Qingwan away and held the man's arm with her backhand.
While walking into the inner room, he said with an angry smile: "Second Master, I just got the news that King Shou has come to the south. Among so many princes, my father loves him the most. When he comes, I will ask him to go up there for you." Climb a bit…”
Seeing her father being led in like a puppet, Gu Qingguan giggled more and more, imitating the princess's words, and said hehe: "Climb up... Climb up... Mother... I want to climb up!"
Gu Songtao visibly trembled and scolded: "Hurry up and help the young lady back to the yard!"
Gu Qingguan's face paled, and she pursed her lips in grievance, tears filling her eyes as she stared blankly at her father.
Gu Songtao couldn't bear it in his eyes, but he turned around and left.
An imperceptible sneer rose from Qingwan's lips. Just saying "Mother" made Mr. Gu anxious. It seems that after five years of accumulation, the old memories become more and more fragrant like wine.
In the afternoon, raindrops as big as soybeans came down with thunderbolts, and the rain poured down in an instant.
Gu Qingwan stood under the window, her hair blown by the wind.
Yueniang stepped forward lightly and said: "Miss, there is news from the front that the princess wants to take Prince Shou to live in the mansion."
"What did the master say?"
"The master naturally agreed and invited the most famous troupe in the south to take care of King Shou."
A man at the helm of the Gu family who can drive his wife to death naturally knows how to go with the flow, not to mention that the other party is King Shou, who is someone you can't even invite.
Gu Qingguan smiled lightly and said: "It looks like it's going to be lively for two days. It's good, as long as this mansion is lively, no one will stare at us here."
Yueniang nodded and said: "Miss, there is news from the house over there."
"But that person is awake?"
"The lady knows things like a god."
Gu Qingguan's eyebrows curved and he said, "I have nothing to do, come with me to take a look."
"Miss, is it raining so heavily outside?"
“It’s safe when it rains heavily!”
Maoer Hutong is famous for its narrow alleys. Three years ago, a Jin Mansion was added here.
The Jin Mansion is very large, with a high wall separating the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard. Doctors are treated in the outer hospital, and people are admitted in the inner hospital.
As soon as Gu Qingwan walked into the inner courtyard, he saw a strong figure under the corridor, standing upright like a green pine. She frowned and walked forward holding an umbrella.
The man turned around and saw the person coming, with a hint of emotion on his cold face.
"Did you save me?" The voice was low and rich, extremely indifferent.
Gu Qingguan smiled: "I just woke up, it would be better to lie down on the bed. After all, it is not easy to snatch people away from the hands of the King of Hell."
The man's eyes were shining like light.
The woman in front of her is still young, but her skin is as good as snow and her features are picturesque. Her black hair was loosely tied into a bun, without any headgear, and her black eyes were full of snow, looking extraordinarily transparent, like ink-colored glass.
Unexpectedly, Dr. Jin, who was well-known in southern Zhili, was actually a girl who did not even have hair extensions. The man said coldly: "I heard that if you save someone, do you need that person to do something for you?"
"Yes, this is my rule." Gu Qingwan nodded.
"What do you need me to do for you?"
Gu Qing smiled: "You only need to tell me your name."
The man was stunned for a moment, his face a little gloomy, his eyes like arrows piercing straight into Gu Qingwan's heart.
Gu Qingwan's heart tightened, but his face was filled with a smile.
Five days ago, this man was carried in by two men in black. He was covered in blood and only had a weak breath left. There were thirty-two sword wounds all over his body, the most fatal one being on the left side of his chest, less than two inches away from his heart and lungs. She worked hard for two days and two nights before she rescued the man from hell.
After a long time, the man pursed his thin lips and said with deep black eyes: "My surname is Sheng and my name is Fang."
Gu Qingguan smiled slightly, her eyes seemed to be filled with light. She lowered her umbrella to block the inquiring sight ahead.
Five years!
I haven't heard the name Sheng in five years. It seems a bit strange, but yet so familiar. If her father hadn't married into Qian's family, her surname would have been Sheng.
The Sheng family is a martial arts family. Since the founding of this dynasty, the Sheng family has followed Taizu in expeditions east and west. The world was initially settled, and rewards were given based on merit. The Sheng family was awarded the title of second-grade hussar general.
There are many sons in the Sheng family. Up to his father's generation, there are fourteen legitimate sons in the family. His father is the ninth in the family and is known as Sheng Jiu.
Injury is inevitable when practicing martial arts, and the injured need medical treatment. Therefore, the Sheng family and the Qian family have been friends for generations.
Grandfather Qian Zongfang only had two daughters, and he was obsessed with finding a son-in-law for his eldest daughter Qian Chunrong to support the family business. In this way, the son of the Sheng family fell into the eyes of his grandfather.
