Chapter 145: The Beginning of Suspicion and the Dawn of the Stars

"Who's the string song?"

I don't know how much time passed, he finally woke up and heard He Luoke suddenly ask him such a question.

He didn't know how much he had passed away for a while, but when the name came to his ears, the pain in his heart was still clear.

He Luoke propped his elbows on the edge of the couch, supported his chin, and looked at him expectantly, not happy for his awakening, but full of impatient curiosity, a pair of smiling eyes were smart, and asked: "Which girl is Xiange?

He was weak and weak, he felt that his body was still a little numb, his mouth was dry, he didn't want to think about it, he didn't want to look at it much, and putting that person in his heart made it unbearable for him at this time, turned around and lay on his side, curled up like a child, his eyes were scattered and lonely: "She ...... She is the young lady of the Jiang family in Jiang Yuelou...... It's my family......"

The sparkle in her eyes was changeable, and she looked at his expression suspiciously: "It's just family? I don't believe it! I bet you must like her very much...... Is it a childhood sweetheart? Or is it love at first sight?Oh, by the way, I've heard that this Miss Jiang is the number one beauty in Chang'an City, even if she is disfigured, how many men are obsessed with her, no wonder you are so obsessed with her......

She muttered to herself, looking a little inexplicably chattering, obviously not a gossip person, but now she caught this topic and kept talking, as if she was trying something with a clumsy method......

Gu Qinghuan looked around this strange room, smelled the medicinal fragrance at the bedside, and put a chic sachet on the pillow, exuding a special smell, which seemed to have a calming effect, this smell made him not feel annoyed when he listened to her noise, he lay upright, closed his eyes, and took her words: "She is very good, she is beautiful, but she will eventually become someone else's wife......"

He Luoke's fragmented thoughts came to an abrupt end at that moment, he closed his eyes so he couldn't see it, and at that moment, the stars in her eyes all fell, and there was a flash of disappointment, or because she tried to find the answer she knew.

In a blink of an eye, he looked arrogant again, and he actually slapped his shoulder heavily and put down his words: "Eh, aren't you married yet? You are a manly man, can't you try again? Lie here and lament like words? In this way, as long as you promise me not to pursue me no longer to pursue the matter of me giving you pear wine, how about I go to help you rob your relatives? On the day of Miss Jiang's wedding, I will let you Gu hold a beautiful woman!"

Gu Qinghuan was frightened by her, and his eyes suddenly widened, "Robbing relatives?"

And she was full of natural heroism and fearlessness, supporting her knees with one hand and patting the edge of the couch with the other, and she slapped herself too hard and hurt herself, and said forcefully: "Yes! Just grab your relatives! If you like someone, you will rob them, so that you don't let them be given to others! You are so temperamental! You also show some manly spirit!"

"What if I rob it, and she won't go with me?"

She replied, "Then forget about her, forget about it completely!"

Seeing her say this, Gu Qinghuan smiled.

If you like it, you won't let it go, if you like it, you will grab it, and if you are sad, you will forget it all.

If only things in the world could be so simple and pure.

He laughed self-deprecatingly, even laughing out loud, and then he couldn't stop laughing more and more, and laughed a little heartlessly......

It's been a long time since I've laughed like this.

He joked and entertained himself, laughing and reading: "Okay, good, rob, rob, just grab a kiss ......"

She saw him laughing inexplicably, and looked at him in silence, and became more and more speechless.

After Gu Qinghuan laughed, she tried her best to prop up half of her body and wanted to sit up, she carefully helped her, then withdrew her hand and continued to sit on the edge of the couch, bowing her head and twisting her fingers, frowning, not knowing what to remember.

He asked, "How long have I been unconscious?"

She replied: "Three hours, the sky is almost dawn......"

He asked, "Where is this?"

She replied: "My family...... General's Palace, guest rooms. ”

He asked, "Why don't you just send me back to my house?"

She replied: "I don't know where the Gu Mansion is." ”

He stopped, looked at her suddenly wooden appearance, thought it was funny, and deliberately said, "Oh, when your father, the hussar general, takes you and your brother to the door to make amends, you will know where the Gu Mansion is." ”

Sure enough, she raised her head, bit her lip and glared at him, and was about to lose her temper when she saw him looking at her and laughed.

He soothed, "I'm joking with you." Don't worry, I won't bother with you, and you didn't mean to give me poison...... No, pear wine, I won't embarrass you, and you don't have to mind. Miss He bowed her head in front of me, and it was really unbearable. ”

He Luoke looked at him so weak and sparse, and also laughed, pursed his lips, but didn't talk much.

Gu Qinghuan said: "I feel better now, and I still bother Miss He to send a carriage to take me back to my house, and I still have to go to the court." ”

When He Luoke heard this, he immediately shook his head and vetoed: "No, you can't leave now! You are too seriously injured......

He waved his hand and said with relief: "It's not heavy, it's nothing, it's just allergies, it's good to drink the medicine, it's not the first time......"

She interrupted: "No, don't try to lie to me! My sister-in-law has seen you and said that you have new injuries and old ones, have been poisoned, have suffered severe colds, and have recently suffered serious injuries...... I saw the injury on your wrist and lied to me......"

Seeing that she became particularly nervous, he pretended to be relaxed again, subconsciously retracted his left hand into his sleeve, and asked, "Your sister-in-law is a miracle doctor, is she so careful?"

"Yes, my sister-in-law is very skilled. She raised her eyes to look at him, trying her best to hide, but her eyes still showed a trace of distress and sadness: "Sister-in-law said, if your body is not carefully conditioned, it will be over...... Fear...... I won't survive a few years......"

He was silent, in fact, he had heard the imperial doctor say something similar to this before, but it was not so grim at that time, and when he heard her say it tonight, Fang felt that he was dying and could not be ignored.

He Luoke saw that his expression darkened, and suddenly became gentle, and comforted him: "But you don't have to be afraid, fortunately, you met my sister-in-law, a miracle doctor, she diagnosed your pulse, treated you for allergies, and wrote you a supplement for conditioning your body, as long as you are careful in the future, take medicine according to the prescription, you will get better, my sister-in-law is amazing, her medical skills are that wonderful, wonderful hands make flowers! Oh no, it is a wonderful hand rejuvenation, I don't know how many dying people have been saved, so you can rest assured, don't be afraid......

He looked at the black medicinal soup on the small table next to him, his heart was very messy, so he shook his head: "No, I don't want to drink medicine endlessly, the medicine is very bitter, and I haven't even drunk the tonic medicine prescribed to me by the imperial doctor......"

He Luoke didn't expect him to make such a petty temperament, so he wondered, and when he got up, he directly picked up the medicine bowl and threatened him irritably: "If you don't drink medicine, you will find death! Miss Ben can tell you, you are now in the General's Mansion, you have to drink whatever I want you to drink! Tolerate you if you don't want to! Anyway, there are a lot of pear wine in our house, you can choose by yourself, do you drink pear wine or tonic? Choose one!"

Gu Qinghuan was a little stunned by her sudden change, and nodded stupidly: "I drink, I drink medicine, isn't it okay?" Don't be so fierce......

The bowl was brought to his mouth, and as soon as he coaxed it, he lowered his head and drank it, and she did not show mercy, almost pouring the medicinal soup directly into his mouth.

After swallowing most of the bowl of extremely bitter medicinal soup, he drank the last sip too quickly, he choked, coughed out in embarrassment, and looked miserable as if he had been poured into poison.

She looked annoyed, put down the bowl, wiped the medicine spilled from the corner of her mouth with a silk scarf, and said disdainfully: "This is medicine, life-saving, drink it like you want to die." Is it so bitter? too weak, aren't you?"

He replied, "How bitter would you be?"

"Taste it, taste it! Who is afraid of whom!" she said that she nodded his moist lips, wiped some residual medicinal juice with her fingertips, and sent it directly to her mouth, the tip of her tongue dipped it, and tasted the bitterness he had just entered.

After drinking the tea and removing the bitter taste on the tip of her tongue, she realized that something was wrong.

Gu Qinghuan froze silently, only looking at her in a daze.

She glanced at his lips, her fingers still showing the soft touch, and her face turned red, and she panicked away from his gaze.

After a while, he spoke again, coughed, and said casually: "Now that I have drunk the medicine, I have received your sister-in-law's prescription, can you send me away......?" Besides, my family should be in a hurry......"

She kept her head down and replied, "Okay, I'll go and tell my father that you're okay, and then I'll send a car to take you away." ”

He Luoke said, stood up, but because he had been sitting for too long, his legs were numb, and he didn't pay attention when he got up, so he fell forward, threw himself on the couch, pressed on Gu Qinghuan, and knocked him down......

The two let out a miserable scream together, startling the people outside, and the maid thought that something was wrong inside, so they hurriedly ran over.

This doesn't matter, the bad thing is that it is a coincidence, when the day was just released, last night when the banquet returned to learn that He Luoke was in trouble, General He and his wife did not sleep well all night, and at this time they got up early, and their daughter-in-law, who was also not at ease, came to visit the guest room together with Mrs. He Shao, the wife of He Shi'an, and happened to hear this strange sound, so they nervously pushed the door into the house to check the situation, who wanted to bump into the scene of the two of them entangled in chaos on the couch......

General He is upright and noble, and Mrs. He is conservative and polite, and when they see their daughter like this, they are naturally shocked. General He roared at He Luoke: "Luoke! let you take care of people, not like this!

Born in a family of imperial doctors, Mrs. He Shao, who was virtuous and virtuous and had peerless medical skills, almost fainted with fright when she saw this scene when she entered the house. She looked particularly thin, I don't know if it was because she was too frightened, or because she was born naturally, Mrs. He's face was too pale, and her whole person had a pathological and feminine feeling that was pitiful.

He Luoke got out of bed and hurriedly explained the truth to them, which stopped their shock, plus Mrs. He Shao was thoughtful and helped her appease her in-laws, and General He and his wife didn't make trouble.

It's just that Mrs. He was still angry, so she didn't say much, she just shook her head and left, muttering "bad morals" in her mouth.

Gu Qinghuan's status is no longer what it used to be, and it was his own daughter who harmed others first, General He inevitably became more careful about Gu Qinghuan and came to make amends to him on behalf of his daughter, etc.

Gu Qinghuan did not hold his identity right or wrong, he only regarded himself as a junior in front of the general, and was courteous to the general, and he did not care about He Luoke's unintentional mistakes, and did not forget to express his gratitude to Mrs. He Shao thoughtfully.

He Shi'an was entertaining in Jiangyue Tower last night, and he didn't return from a hangover, so he didn't know what was going on in the house.

Although the He family tried their best to keep him, Gu Qinghuan still insisted on resigning and refused to miss the rush, so the He family helped him pack up, helped him get into the carriage at dawn, and sent him back to the house.

After getting into the carriage, Gu Qinghuan raised the curtain, looked at He Luoke who was standing next to his father and sister-in-law, and nodded slightly to signal her to come over.

He Luoke put on an indifferent face and didn't look at him directly, "What are you doing?"

Gu Qinghuan looked at her and smiled, and said, "Thank you for taking care of me all night, Miss He." ”

He Luoke glanced at him with his head turned his head, then turned around and left, "Long-winded!"

……

Gu Qinghuan hurried back to the house, but he never thought that his father and sister would come back a little later, and he had not found out that he was unusually missing before. It turned out that Gu Qingxuan was really drunk last night and stayed in Jiangyue Tower, Gu Qingning took care of the whole process last night, and finally fell tired in Jiangyue Tower.

They were all in a hurry, gossip was not mentioned for the time being, Gu Qinghuan pretended to be safe in front of his family, until the three of them packed up and got into the carriage, and his father and sister asked him where he was last night, he confessed, and insisted that he was in good health, let alone talk about a short life.

Gu Qingning was still a little uneasy, inevitably worried, and repeatedly confirmed to him, Gu Qinghuan was moved by the concern of his family, and deliberately changed the topic at the same time: "Sister, I'm really fine, I'm fine, but what about Qingfeng? He hasn't gone home yet? Is he still in Jiangyue Tower?"

Gu Qingxuan had a hangover and a headache, leaned on the corner of the carriage with his forehead and pretended to sleep, and when he asked, he also noticed it, and asked Gu Qingning: "Yes, Qingning, where is Qingfeng? I didn't see him in Jiangyue Tower earlier...... How was it last night?"

Gu Qingning didn't know why, his eyes were a little fluttering, and he glanced out of the half-propped car window, the carriage was fast, the late autumn wind was cool, the morning and dusk were deserted, and the road ahead was not clear, only listening to the sound of wheels running over on the stone road on the empty long street, and the horse's hooves kicking and tapping crisp and cold.

Inadvertently hesitated, came back to his senses, and said, "...... All is well. Last night, the prince escorted the county lord back to the palace with a clear breeze, and I haven't seen him since then, so I think I stayed in the palace......"

This was somewhat unexpected by the father and son of the Gu family, and they didn't know whether to be happy or worried, the three of them looked at each other for a while, Gu Qingxuan and Gu Qinghuan laughed first, and Gu Qingning only showed a smile after that, no matter what, it was a little reluctant.

……

The marriage banquet between the Jin Wangfu and the Gu family, which caused a sensation in the whole city, successfully refuted the rumors for Jiang Yuelou and saved the first lively place in Chang'an City. Jiang Yuelou is open for business, the Jiang family's father and daughter have finally relieved their worries, and the next thing is to be busy preparing for the wedding of Jiang Xiange and Yang Rongan, and the wedding period is approaching.

The day after the wedding banquet, after finishing his busy work in the official office, Gu Qingxuan left the Yushitai early, and asked people to bring a message to the eldest son and eldest daughter, asking them to go to a certain place to meet him as soon as possible.

Gu Qingxuan took the car to Jiangyue Tower first, and after getting out of the car, he stopped for a moment downstairs where the guests were bustling, looked up, and saw this high-rise building, elegant and elegantly painted buildings, silk and bamboo around the ears, and clouds and brocades, not only happy in his heart, but also seemed to be looking at each other with an old friend for many years, and smiled tacitly.

He walked into the building, the waiter in the building said hello when he saw him, and hurriedly informed the Jiang family's father and daughter, Jiang Hechuan settled the accounts in the backyard, Jiang Xiange in the front yard went downstairs to greet him first, and asked him why he was here, he only smiled: "Last night I fought with your father, and I didn't win or lose, but the gambling contract still worked, since I promised to invest in adding another property to your family, my uncle will not break his promise, no, I have already picked a good place, Xian Ge, call your father out, and go with your uncle to take a look." ”

Jiang Xiange was surprised, but seeing that his face was happy and genuinely happy, he asked Consul Zhang to urge Jiang Hechuan to come out.

When he sat down and waited, Jiang Xiange washed the leaves and cooked tea for him. A cup of fragrant tea, thin white porcelain, mellow and dense, sent to the front, he closed his eyes and sniffed the fragrance of the tea before the Ming Dynasty, took the taste, the taste of déjà vu, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of nostalgia, hot tea into the throat, but evoke the unknown coolness in the heart.

I haven't drunk this kind of tea for a long time......

"Uncle was very drunk last night, and he didn't have time to drink hangover soup this morning, but he has a headache?" Jiang Xiange asked thoughtfully.

Gu Qingxuan smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry about string songs, my uncle hasn't reached the time when he is too old to be old, and he can still stand that drunkenness, last night was very rare, and you had a good drunk with your father, just like when you were young." The next time you want to drink such a pleasant wine, you have to wait until the time of your wedding, heh, fortunately, it's also soon......"

He said to Jiang Xiange, Jiang Hechuan came out, so he didn't sit anymore, and went out of Jiangyue Tower together, got into the carriage, and went to one place.

On the carriage, in addition to mentioning what they were going to do, the two old friends were talking about their children's family affairs, Jiang Xiange kept looking out the window and said little.

The brocade carriage stopped at one place, the three of them got out of the car, looked forward, and saw that Gu Qingning and Gu Qinghuan were already waiting there.

In front of it is a lively place again, the bright lights are hanging high, the guests are like clouds, and the embroidered gold plaque has four dazzling big characters "Ruyi Restaurant".
