Chapter 23
Chapter 23
This is the first time Gu Ting saw the real Huo Yan after his rebirth.
The snow is over and the weather is still cold, but the sun is starting to shine brightly. The birds in the forest are trying to ride the wind, and the plum branches on the trees are quietly blooming. In the cold north wind, he comes on horseback, with sharp eyebrows and sharp eyes. , with brows and eyes like ink dots, a golden crown on her head, a jade belt on her waist, and a golden dragon with four claws on her shoulders showing off her might, almost soaring into the sky!
No matter how cold the face is, it can't hide the handsome face of Fengshen, and no matter how cold the wind is, it can't suppress the man's vigorous blood.
Who wouldn't be tempted by such a man?
Gu Ting's eyes drooped slightly, and his eyes slid past Xu Yinglan - it is understandable to be insane for such a human relationship, to lose his mind.
The common people were also very excited, and they knelt down in an instant: "My lord, Jin'an!"
Everyone is also very curious, one side has a little love, who does the prince really like?To whom?
Xu Yinglan looked at Huo Yan with fiery eyes, full of expectation.
It is true that she picked the matter first, but the incident has developed to the present, and it is no longer a matter of competing for favor. Others deliberately magnified it, which not only hit her, but also hurt the prince?Did the prince agree with what Gu Ting said?If she is the prince, she will definitely be angry!
Her cousin is studying martial arts at the palace anyway, and it is normal, she will always visit the princess, the prince is filial, no matter what, she has to give her some face...
Gu Ting was noncommittal.
When they met in the red silk building, they already had a superficial impression of each other. He had lost too many people and had already risked it all. Huo Yan might not have a good impression of him.But today it wasn't his intention to cause trouble, if Huo Yan insisted on caressing...
He had no choice but to lose face.
Meng Zhen grabbed Wu Feng's arm nervously, with a terrified expression on his face, and his voice was thin and low: "Why did he come back? Will he tear down our stage? Will he bully brother Ting!"
Wu Feng endured the severe pain in his arm: "No, I don't know..." Please let me go first, please!
The corners of Gu Qingchang's lips raised slightly, showing a little confidence.
Who is King Zhenbei?Power over the world, Wu Guan ancient and modern!If you gain weight, you will be burdened. Even if you like it in your heart, how can you admit that you like a man in public?This is a big blemish!Also, how long has Gu Ting been in Jiuyuan City?King Zhenbei has been fighting on the border and has never been back. When did the two meet and when did they fall in love?From his point of view, everything is just Gu Ting's trick, if he deliberately plays this trick, he is not afraid that someone will not hook him, and he will overturn the car directly!
Last night in the Red Silk Building, Gu Ting was pestering a bearded man...
Everyone looked at Huo Yan without blinking, waiting for him to make a statement.
Huo Yan's actions were beyond everyone's expectations.
He didn't say anything, didn't ask anyone, didn't help anyone, his long legs didn't stop for a moment, his aura was domineering and indifferent, he walked directly between Xu Yinglan and Gu Ting, and walked into the palace.
"Squeak—bang!"
The gate of the palace opened and closed again.
Crowd: ...
What do these mean?
Gu Ting raised his eyebrows, he didn't understand, turned his head, Xu Yinglan was staring at him with red eyes.
Just when everyone was bored and felt that the play had no hot spots and was very tasteless, with a 'squeak', the gate of the palace opened again.An old man with clean clothes and a kind face came out.
Anyone who has lived in Jiuyuan City for a long time knows that this is the old housekeeper of the palace, a loyal servant of several generations, the old prince gave him the surname Huo when he was still alive, and his status is very unusual.
Old Butler Huo looked around the crowd, walked forward slowly, walked in front of Gu Ting, stopped, and offered something with both hands: "My lord said, please be careful, son, you must not lose your belongings in the future."
Just one sentence made everyone excited.
Case solved! Case solved!It's this handsome and handsome son!The prince's favorite is him, he is him!
The women covered their lips with handkerchiefs and their eyes were excited: "I'll just say I'm not mistaken! My man is just like the prince just now. He looks cool and serious on the surface. He said that he is not allowed to get close outside, but in fact he will pull me when he finds an opportunity. Quietly hooking your hand, you are shameless! Returning something, it is deliberately backing up!"
"It's the same at my house! Outsiders don't even look at me when they look at him, but they really look in their eyes... Did you see the expression on the prince's face when he passed Young Master Gu just now? He obviously wants to hug him!"
"That's right! The prince passed those two people just now, and when he walked towards the gate, he was obviously closer to the young master!"
The men smashed their palms and sighed: "The prince didn't even look at the girl surnamed Xu just now, did he? It's not the same as me! When my wife is around, I can't look at anything, let alone the pretty ones!"
"Who says it's not? You deliberately stay so far away when you walk. It seems that you are afraid that the young master will be angry."
"I didn't expect the prince to be afraid of his wife just like me..."
People who have no married experience have different eyesight, and the focus is on jade pendants.
Whose jade pendant?Isn't this nonsense, the old butler personally presented it to Young Master Gu, obviously it belonged to Young Master Gu!The jade pendant is a close-fitting thing, when will it be taken off, of course it is when you take off your clothes!When you redress, you will naturally put it back on again, forget to wear it, and get picked up by others... Don't talk about it, we understand!He must have undressed and done that kind of thing!The rain and the wind are exciting, and you are in a hurry to leave or afraid of being seen by others, so you accidentally left something behind!
So - everyone understands, who is real and who is fake, who is touching porcelain and who has the confidence, isn't it clear at a glance?
The 'whispering' of the crowd has reached the point where it cannot be ignored, who can not hear it?
The old butler was still holding the jade pendant and waiting for him to take it, with a loving look on his face and eager eyes.
Gu Ting: ...
"……thanks."
Of course he had to take it back, after all... the jade pendant was indeed his.
But he was really wronged, he really didn't fight Huo Yan for [-] rounds like this or that, but last night he met a thief, Huo Yan helped him get back his things, but his eyes were all on the book, and he forgot to take his jade pendant.
Huo Yan deliberately returned it to him in such a scene in such a way, did he rescue him, or retaliate against him for lying?
Or just show your attitude directly, don't bother thinking about some things, and don't pretend not to know each other, so you can be more honest when you meet in the future?
Meng Zhen's eyes widened in surprise, and he pinched Wu Feng's arm tightly again: "Brother Stop...are you really a couple with King Zhenbei?"
Wu Feng even forgot the pain, stared at his young master, and almost cried.
He would never be mistaken, that jade pendant belonged to the young master!Didn't you agree, it's just that it's easy to do things with the news?When did the master have an affair with the prince, why didn't he know?
Young master, look back at your loyal follower, you can despise me and don't tell me, but you can't lie to me! !
There was so much enthusiasm for Gu Ting at the scene, and so much disregard for Xu Yinglan. Such a shameful humiliation, how could Xu Yinglan stay?Immediately, tears fell like rain, and he covered his face and left.
Gu Qingchang had a gloomy face, secretly cursing in his heart that the mud could not support the wall, it was really useless!
It was meaningless to stay any longer, so he flung his sleeves and left.
The excitement was complete at this point, the common people were very satisfied, they greeted Gu Ting one by one, and went away with friends, exchanged for teacups, continued to brag and gossip to those who were not present just now.
Gu Ting: ...
Wu Feng came over: "Master?"
Gu Ting looked down at the jade pendant in his hand: "Forget it, let's go back."
With an easy-going bun face, he walked silently all the way back home, Gu Ting was still a little uneasy, knowing himself and the enemy can win every battle, no matter whether Xu Yinglan has a back move or not, he has to be prepared himself.
"Go and check her." He told Wu Feng.
Wu Feng nodded and spread out his hands.
Gu Ting: "Huh?"
"Silver," Wu Feng sighed, "It always takes money to do things, and there's nothing a villain can do about it."
Gu Ting paused, took out two bank notes from his pocket, thought for a while, took one back, and only handed one to Wu Feng: "Young master is poor, save yourself."
Wu Feng: ...
In Zhenbei Wangfu, Huo Yue saw his brother come back, his eyes were wide open, and he finally had a little curiosity and liveliness of a young girl: "Brother, you and that Mr. Gu are really—"
Huo Yan rubbed her sister's head: "What do children know, go back to the room and embroider."
Huo Yue's face bulged slightly: "I don't like embroidery."
Huo Yan thought for a while: "What about painting?"
Huo Yue's eyes brightened: "Brother, still remember?"
Huo Yan: "Go, show me the drawing."
"Yeah!" The little girl left with a sweet smile.
After coaxing his sister away, Wei Lie jumped out and asked cautiously, "Where is the old ancestor?"
Huo Yan raised his foot forward: "Let's go."
Wei Lie: "The things outside..."
Huo Yan's eyes darkened slightly: "If he wants to investigate, let him know the information."
The little thing is so smart, and he will definitely move in private later, and when he moves, he will find something.This is a major matter of border defense, he doesn't want to implicate others, the little thing insists on getting into the game... so let's help out by the way.
Thinking that Wei Lie seemed to have something to say before, Huo Yan asked again: "Is there any news that hasn't been finished?"
"There's a person..." Wei Lie looked around, came over with his ear, and said a name to Huo Yan, "...already outside the city."
Huo Yan's eyes changed slightly: "It's okay, let him come. My dear brother is here, he doesn't dare to make trouble."
Walking to the main hall, seeing his grandmother, Huo Yan was about to explain what happened just now, but was stopped by his grandmother.
"Don't ask, if you ask, you don't agree."
Huo Yan: ...
"Grandson isn't—"
Lin put down the teacup with a solemn expression: "No matter who you marry or who you like, have you asked him what he thinks? Do he want to be with you? Don't think that you are a prince. If you have money and power, you can do whatever you want. Anyone is willing to entrust you for life. .”
Huo Yan sullenly said, "Grandson really doesn't mean that."
"Really?" Lin's eyes glanced at his grandson sharply, "Whether there is, you have to think it over."
