Chapter 81: Shameless
It's nice to be able to bask in the sun on a dry and cold winter day.
However, it didn't take long for the wind to pick up in the garden, and the sky began to be a little overcast, and there was a desire for rain.
In such a season, the capital is either dry all the time, and once it rains, it is likely to turn into snow, Doudou and Yuan Xiang don't want to stay in the mansion anymore, and they both have some intention of going home.
There was no need for their sisters to speak, all the people in the pavilion were delicate people, where could they stand such a cold wind, surrounded by a group of maids and women, the group turned back to the main hall.
The conversation between Yuan Zheng and Gu Ge Lao had already ended, and they were sitting with Gu Yong and the two brothers drinking tea and chatting at this time.
Seeing that the two daughters were back, Yuan Zheng stood up and arched his hand to the Gu family brothers and said, "I should have asked Ah Chao to accompany my mother-in-law more, but today's weather is a bit of a rush home, so let's talk about it another day." ”
The Gu brothers knew that Yuan Zheng was about to officially take office, and the time was very tight, and it was not easy to stay for so long today, so it was not good to keep it more, so they stood up and accompanied the father and daughter of the Yuan family to the flower hall where their mother was playing cards.
Half an hour later, all the masters of the younger generation of the Gu Mansion personally sent the Yuan Mansion family into the carriage back to the mansion.
The two princes also gave enough face and accompanied them to the gate of the Gu Mansion.
I don't know if it was because the wind was a little strong or because it was a little unpleasant before, the carriage from the Yuan Mansion drove away from the Gu Mansion, until there was no trace of it anymore, and none of them opened their mouths to say half a word.
In the end, it was the fourth prince who broke the deadlock, and he hugged his fist at everyone in the Gu family: "Thank you for your hospitality today, the hour is not early, and this prince will leave." ”
Everyone in the Gu family said a few polite words, and watched the four princes and their entourage beat their horses and left.
From beginning to end, the four princes did not give the second prince a cold eye, and the second prince also did not intend to deal with him.
The tension between the two princes was inconvenient for the Gu family to interject, and the eldest young master Gu Changan smiled at the second prince with some embarrassment: "Is Your Highness also planning to return to the palace?"
Today's purpose has been fully achieved, the second prince naturally doesn't want to stay longer, and was just about to say goodbye to everyone, but Gu Changning grabbed his arm and said: "The incense that His Highness ordered me to mix last time is already good, why don't you go with me to see if it suits your heart." ”
The rest of the Gu family knew about the bad debt between the two, but for them, Su Lin was much closer to them than the second prince, and they were all a little dissatisfied with his performance today.
Although he felt that Gu Changning's behavior was a bit out of line today, he had no intention of stopping him.
The second prince didn't show the slightest impatience, and smiled at Gu Changning: "Then I'll go with Cousin Changning." ”
On weekdays, he hardly puts the prince on the shelf in front of the Gu family, and everyone thinks that he is very approachable and easy to get along with.
Today's "cousin", it's hard to say what others think, but Gu Changning felt upset for a while, feeling that the second prince was a despicable and hypocritical villain.
He endured the discomfort in his heart, let go of the second prince's arm, and walked back to the Gu Mansion first, and the others didn't say much and followed in.
Gu Changning and the second prince soon came to the courtyard where he lived.
As soon as the two walked into the house, Gu Changning, who had always been gentle like a girl, clenched his fists and hit directly towards the door of the second prince.
The second prince is the one who started practicing martial arts when he was a child, and Gu Changning's sneak attack was nothing in his opinion, he stretched out a hand and easily pinched the fist that the other party hit.
A trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and the second prince quickly put on a puzzled look and said, "What does Cousin Changning want to do?"
Gu Changning's lungs were about to be blown up, and he roared angrily: "Yu Wenheng, are you worthy of Arlene by doing this? If it weren't for you, she would have accompanied the Empress Dowager to live in a remote palace for more than a year? Don't forget that she is only a thirteen-year-old girl, and she also likes to be lively, and she also needs the love of her family! Do you know how long I put up with you today?"
The second prince's face did not fluctuate much, and he let go of Gu Changning's fist and said, "Enough is enough?"
Gu Changning felt like he had punched the cotton bale, and most of his breath was suddenly released.
The second prince sneered: "This prince doesn't need anyone to beak when he does things, especially you. Let me tell you clearly, I have endured you not for long, but for many years. ”
No matter what position he would put Su Lin in the end, whether it was the princess or the side concubine, in his heart, Su Lin was already his woman, and he could not allow other men to covet it.
If he hadn't clearly known that Gu Changning was just unrequited love for Su Lin, and for the sake of his face as Gu Ge's old grandson, he would have taught this kid a lesson a long time ago.
Gu Changning was stunned by this, and couldn't believe the speed of the second prince's face.
The second prince snorted lightly and continued: "What did this prince do today that is worthy of your shouting and killing? The only person who can call the shots about my marriage with Su Lin is my father, as long as the marriage decree is not granted for a day, there is nothing between me and her, since you protect her like this, you should think more about her reputation." ”
There are such brazen people in the world! Gu Changning wants to beat people again.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Reputation, who in the capital does not know that the sixth girl of the Su family is the future princess of your second prince, if she can't marry you in this life, what reputation will she have...... Her heart has long been in you, how can you bear to hurt her?"
The second prince sneered and said: "Cousin Changning said carefully, Miss Su Liu has been praised by the Empress Dowager, a model of morality in the high-ranking ladies of the capital, how can you do such a thing as a secret promise to people before marriage, these words are out of your mouth and into my ears, it is best not to let others hear them." ”
Gu Changning's hands trembled with anger, he had been friends with this brazen person for more than ten years.
The second prince pulled Gu Changning to a chair and sat down, and he also sat on another chair, and said in a gentle voice again: "I'm not one of those people who have no conscience, how can I not know Arlene's goodness, I will definitely marry her." ”
Gu Changning raised his eyes and looked at the second prince, and then what?
The second prince pulled his thin lips and mocked: "Do you think that I can only have one woman in my life?
Gu Changning was silent, he hadn't even thought about such a question.
Seeing that his words had an effect, the second prince patted Gu Changning's shoulder and said, "Cousin Changning, we are all people in the same boat, in order for this boat to go steadily and far, some things have to be started earlier." ”
Gu Changning snorted after a while: "You haven't seen it today, Cousin Yuan was able to get my grandfather's blue eyes, not only let her enter the outer study, but also willing to let her back to the main hall with her support." So...... You'd better beat her idea, she can't be a side concubine for you, once you mess with your grandfather and uncle, the consequences will be unimaginable. (To be continued.) )
