"Mother Liu, how is Luo Gongzi?" Gu Wanyue took advantage of the gap between Mother Liu's delivery of food and hurriedly asked.

Liu's mother is a cook in the kitchen, Gu Wanyue is very good to her, and understands her family's difficulties, and she also paid her own money to let her son study in a private school. It is precisely because of this that Mother Liu is grateful to Gu Wanyue and is also very supportive of Gu Wanyue and Luo Chen. Coupled with the convenience of access, he often came to deliver messages to Gu Wanyue.

At this time, Liu's mother sighed, and then said: "Miss, you and Luo Gongzi both like each other, but the master doesn't allow it, and I can't help as a subordinate." Luo Gongzi came to the mansion several times to see the young lady, but the old man gave an order, but he couldn't see each other, and he drank and worried every day. However, in the past two days, Luo Gongzi's spirit has improved a lot. By the way, I followed Miss's instructions and went to the matchmaker's shop, and the proprietress wrote a letter and asked me to bring it to Miss. ”

When Gu Wanyue heard this, her eyes lit up, and she was happy for no reason. Perhaps because there is nothing to be done at the moment, Gu Wanyue pinned all her hopes on Bai Sujin, hoping that she would come up with a way to get her father to agree to this marriage. At this time, when he heard Bai Sujin's letter, with a glimmer of hope, he quickly took it and opened the letter and read it carefully.

"Mother Liu, you go down first, by the way, you go to the matchmaker shop a lot these days, and tell me as soon as you have news."

When Liu's mother left, Zhilan, the personal maid, asked softly: "Miss, what is written in the letter, looking at Miss's appearance, it seems that she is worried about something?" ”

Gu Wanyue sighed, she trusted Zhilan who had been with her for many years. At this time, she did not hide it, and said truthfully: "Mrs. Bai said in the letter that she set a trap to test Luo Chen's sincerity to me, I believe that in a few days, Luo Chen's personality will be clear, if Luo Chen still maintains her sincerity to me in the face of fame and fortune, she will definitely promote the marriage between me and Luo Chen." ”

Zhilan persuaded: "That is the case, then the young lady is waiting with peace of mind, Luo Gongzi treats the young lady more affectionately than Jinjian, how can he be interfered with by fame and fortune, the young lady will definitely be able to marry Luo Gongzi in the end." ”

Gu Wanyue sighed lightly, and said: "Having said that, I always have some doubts, if Luo Chen really gave up his agreement with me for the sake of fame and fortune, what should I do?" ”

Zhilan said solemnly: "If Gongzi Luo is really such a villain who is greedy for fame and profit, then it can be regarded as the young lady who recognized the wrong person and paid her true heart by mistake." However, I believe that Luo Gongzi will not disappoint Miss. ”

Gu Wanyue sighed leisurely and said, "I hope so." ”

Tavern.

"How is it, Luo Chen, have you thought about it?" Guo Yifeng asked solemnly.

Luo Chen looked directly into Guo Yifeng's eyes, and said with a normal expression: "If you don't agree to associate with the prince's sister, what should the prince do?" ”

Li Quan glanced at Luo Chen and sneered: "I said that the surname is Luo, don't be ignorant, don't be embarrassed, you must know that sitting opposite you is our noble Ling Wangye." If you don't obey, you'll end no good. ”

Guo Yifeng glanced at Li Quan and said, "Luo Chen, this king tells you that it is rare for my sister to have someone she likes, since she has taken a fancy to you, I hope you can have more contact with her." If you insist on not complying, I will not force you, but in the future, your name will never appear on the gold list of the imperial examination, and I will personally assign Miss Gu to marry her as my disciple. ”

Luo Chen's expression was a little surprised, he glanced at Guo Yifeng in disbelief, his lips trembled slightly with anger, and finally said loudly: "My lord, the means are so despicable, it's really despicable." In this life and this life, I only love Gu Wanyue alone, for her, I can give up my pursuit, and I don't want fame and fortune. I believe that Wanyue treats me the same, even if the prince points to marriage, Wanyue will not marry, even if she is forced to marry, Wanyue will also die with her will, and when I hear the news of her death, it is also the day I go to Huangquan to find her. ”

Guo Yifeng was a little shocked when he heard it, he grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, and he had never experienced love, but he only listened to some stories from the market when he traveled to the people. The story that touched him the most was "Peacock Flying Southeast", one was "Lifting Himself to Qingchi", and the other was "Hanging on the Southeast Branch". But I didn't want to, in reality, I met the second Jiao Zhongqing.

At this time, Guo Yifeng really wanted to run to the prefect's yamen immediately, reveal his identity, and then order Gu Wanyue and Luo Chen to get married, so that the lovers could finally become dependents. However, reason told him that such an approach was not advisable, and that the matter needed to be considered in the long run.

"Luo Chen, I can't see that you are an infatuated man. In this way, this king takes a step back, I said yesterday, as long as you agree to associate with my sister-in-law, as long as you get married, I will let you live in the third grade. Then I will add one more sentence today, it is very normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, if you agree to have a relationship with my sister-in-law, after you get married in the future, I can allow you to take Miss Gu into the door, as a second room, what do you think? ”

Luo Chen's face was a little stiff, and he said coldly: "What does the prince think of me Luo Chen, and what kind of person does he think of Miss Gu." Regardless of whether I will be a pawn of a trafficker or an official in a high position in the future, I will only treat Wanyue as my wife, and I will never take a concubine. The method proposed by the prince seems to be able to have both fame and fortune and beauty, but in my Luo Chen's eyes, this is an insult. Please also ask the prince not to bother anymore, I, Luo Chen, would rather be a broken jade than a complete tile. ”

Guo Yifeng sighed and only said, "You will have a good reward." When he had finished speaking, he said no more and left the tavern.

It wasn't until Guo Yifeng left for a moment that Luo Chen suddenly remembered something. Just now, Guo Yifeng said that he would marry Wan Yuexia to one of his doormen. His fierce words just now, will he annoy Guo Yifeng, and will Wanyue be forced to marry soon? No, I must not let Wanyue be hurt, and I still need to think of a way to do it.

That night, Luo Chen found Liu's mother and learned that Wanyue missed him very much, and felt that he should take action as soon as possible.

"Mother Liu, I know that you have always supported me and Miss to be together, and Miss also trusts you very much. Now the prefect swears not to agree to my marriage with the young lady, for the sake of today, there is only one way to go, and that is to elope. ”

"What? Elope? Mother Liu was a little surprised when she heard Luo Chen's thoughts, but then she thought that there really seemed to be no better way to solve this matter. However, Liu's mother still persuaded tactfully: "Master Luo, this matter is too risky, and now the prefect is dissatisfied with you, and always wants to find a reason to deal with you." If you do this at this time, if you are discovered by the prefect, you will be imprisoned and punished. The young lady will also intercede for you and agree to marry someone else. Have you figured out the consequences? ”

Luo Chen was already worried because he listened to Guo Yifeng's words, and blurted out at this time: "Of course I know the consequences, fight hard, maybe Miss and I still have a chance to be together." One step later, I'm afraid that the young lady will marry someone else. ”

Seeing Luo Chen's resolute attitude, Liu Ma only said: "This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, Luo Gongzi must at least prepare an escape route, prepare a carriage and money, arrange a good time and place, and most importantly, find a reliable person to help." At this time, I'm afraid that I can't prepare. I will talk to Miss about this tomorrow, I see that Luo Gongzi is anxious, but I still have to say that if you want to do this big thing, you can't do it without ten days and a half months. ”

Luo Chen hurriedly said: "The matter is urgent, I will arrange this matter as soon as possible, and ask Mother Liu to inform Miss as soon as possible and prepare as soon as possible." ”
