During this meal, Gu Chao was restless.
When he finally finished eating, he hurriedly said goodbye and fled in despair.
Yan Zhenli saw him walking in such a hurry, with a smile in his eyes, he shouted: "Aqiu, go see your brother off."
Yan Qiu chased after him.
When Gu Chao saw Yan Qiu, he felt even more uncomfortable, and he didn't speak all the way.
Yan Qiu was cheerful, and took the initiative to say: "A Ye and I are childhood sweethearts, and she will not hide her affairs from me. Senior brother, don't worry, my father and I are on the senior side."
Gu Chao was very embarrassed: "Why did this kind of thing come up in front of Master..."
Yan Qiu said with a smile: "Senior brother is father's favorite student. Now that father knows, how can he not be the master of senior brother? Besides, I wish that stinky girl Aye would get married quickly. She has never been married, so I can't find her." daughter in law."
Gu Chao was puzzled: "Why?"
Yan Qiu laughed: "I have such a good relationship with her, there are always people who want to match us up, but in fact, she doesn't think of me as a man, and I don't think of her as a woman. I don't know how many times my father and brother urged me, It would be hard for me to marry Ah Ye into the family, if we can do it, why wait until now?"
For some reason, Gu Chao felt sour all of a sudden.
He said nothing and continued walking.
Yan Qiu asked again: "When is senior brother going to propose marriage?"
Gu Chao said: "Not now."
Yan Qiu subconsciously glanced at Gu Chao's legs: "But I'm worried that the third prince won't agree? Don't be afraid, my father will speak up for senior brother."
"It's not this." Gu Chao has been limping once, is he afraid of the second time, he said: "A Ye just entered Zhengemen, and it was a time when she was full of ambition and high spirits. At this time, she should put down her sword and marry As a married woman, I will wrong her, and if she is unhappy, I will not be happy either, so we have to wait another two years for the marriage proposal, which is also what the princess means."
Yan Qiu raised his eyebrows: "But senior brother and Ah Ye are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. If two years can be said to be long or short, senior brother is not afraid that something will happen in these two years?"
Gu Chao was silent for a while, and said: "There will never be any accidents on my side. If there are any accidents on her..." Gu Chao's tone was a bit difficult: "It's as long as she is happy."
That is to say, he will always wait for Rong Ye, but if Rong Ye falls in love with someone else halfway, he will not stalk her, and will let her go.
The smile in Yan Qiu's eyes deepened, and he sighed: "Brother is really a good man."
Gu Chao was stunned for a moment.
Yan Qiu whispered: "This is also what A Ye said."
Gu Chao's face turned red.
After Gu Chao left the Hou Mansion, he went back to the inn. After packing up his luggage, he planned to rest early and go to Zhengemen to have a look tomorrow morning.
As a result, I slept until midnight when I heard the sound of doors and windows being pried.
He immediately sat up, drew the long sword out of its sheath, and pointed the point of the sword directly at the window lattice.
At the critical moment, the window sash was opened, and under the moonlight, a white and beautiful face was revealed.
Gu Chao hurriedly retracted the long sword, shocked: "A Ye?"
Rong Ye turned in from the window, glanced at the weapon in Gu Chao's hand, and asked with a smile, "Marshal wants to kill me?"
Gu Chao hurriedly threw the long sword away: "Why do you..."
"I'm going to the office." Rong Ye said, sitting on the stool by himself, lighting a candle: "Come and see you."
Gu Chao glanced at the time outside, it was already dawn, and he just went to the office
Qiao Ding is right, Zhengemen is really not a place for people to stay.
Gu Chao quickly sat down and looked at her face carefully.
Under the light of the candle, the girl in a dark golden dress is so beautiful that it makes one's heart itch.
Gu Chao wanted to grab Rong Ye's hand, but his fingertips shrank, and he didn't dare to stretch it out.
Between a man and a woman, there must always be defenses. It's not good for her to run into the man's room in the middle of the night. He can't do anything else to damage her reputation.
Gu Chao said: "Since you have just left the office, you are tired, go back and rest."
Rong Ye frowned: "Aren't you happy that I came to see you?"
Gu Chao said: "Naturally happy."
"Then why did you drive me away?"
Gu Chao didn't know what to say, this girl has always been like this, even when she disguised herself as a man and ran to the military camp, she seemed to have no regard for the distinction between men and women, and she was horribly deviant.
"It's too late now." Gu Chao said mildly.
Rong Ye understood, and leaned forward, with the corners of his mouth raised high: "Yes, in the middle of the night, lonely men and widows, is the marshal going to do something to me?"
Gu Chao hurriedly said: "No!"
Rong Ye laughed out loud, thinking it was fun to tease him: "I'm not afraid, the marshal can't beat me."
Gu Chao: "..."
Well, I almost forgot this, with high martial arts skills, you can indeed do whatever you want.
Rong Ye moved forward again, put his hands on the table, held his face in his palms, and looked at Gu Chao: "I haven't seen the marshal for a long time, and the marshal seems to be handsome. Let me see if the eyebrows have thickened." .”
Gu Chao scratched his eyebrows uncomfortably: "I'm the same as before"
Rong Ye took his hand away from his face and stared at his face: "I'll take a look again, I haven't seen it for a long time."
Gu Chao felt that his ears were about to burn off.
Rong Ye looked at it for a while, and finally came to a conclusion: "It's Changjun, no wonder the young lady likes it. I heard that the marshal is in Kunzhou, and he is almost full of wives and concubines?"
Gu Chao's eyes widened immediately, with a look of panic on his face: "You... what are you talking about... how can I... Ah Ye, listen to me! It's not like this! It's all a misunderstanding! I don't know why they..."
"Okay, okay, I know." Rong Ye patted Gu Chao's hand and quickly comforted him: "I know the Marshal is not that kind of person."
Gu Chao breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help emphasizing again: "I really didn't..."
"Yeah." Rong Ye nodded, looked at the sky outside the window again, and asked, "Has the Marshal seen the sunrise in Kyoto?"
Gu Chao subconsciously shook his head.
Rong Ye got up, held Gu Chao's hand, and said, "Let's go to see the sunrise. I know a place where you can see the most beautiful sunrise in all of Kyoto."
Gu Chao looked at the girl's bright eyes and thought, is the sunrise as beautiful as your eyes
His heart was pounding, and the feeling of clasping his hands and fingers was really good. For a moment, Gu Chao couldn't say whether a man and a woman would accept or not, but followed Rong Ye in a daze, fell out of the window, and ran into the street before dawn.
Half an hour later, the two of them appeared on the Qingdeng Stage in the inner courtyard of the palace. At that time, the sun in front of them also slowly appeared.
"Marshal, look!" Rong Ye shouted excitedly.
Gu Chao had a complex expression on his face, he turned his head in confusion, and looked at the more than 20 Imperial Army soldiers who were lined up behind them with weapons in hand.
He never dreamed that the so-called place to watch the sunrise turned out to be in the imperial city!
What Gu Chao didn't expect was that halfway through the sunrise, he saw another unexpected person.
"Kowtow to the emperor!"
As the salute sounded, when Gu Chao turned his head, he saw the entrance of Qingdeng Stage, a young emperor in a golden dragon robe, standing there, his expression was cold and unpredictable, his eyes seemed to be sizing him up.
