Chapter 114: Revenge
When the invited Mrs. Zhengbin family inserted a flawless white hosta into Lu Xianniang's bun, the ceremony was completed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Lu Xianniang got up shyly and timidly, turned to look at the people at the table with a smile.
When her gaze swept over Cui Ting, she paused, and the smile on her delicate face bloomed even more, looking at him with pride.
Cui Ting's face did not move, he raised his glass slightly, drank it all, and stopped looking at her.
Gu Yuan had never looked at her, and he lowered his head and enjoyed the fruit cake, leisurely.
The ladies and gentlemen next to her looked at her, and then looked at the high-spirited Lu Xianniang at the banquet, and discussed in a low voice: "It turned out that the sister-in-law of the Lu family was the number one beauty in Kyoto, but now look, this Yuzhen female crown is also beautiful and outstanding, and she is not much better than the sister-in-law of the Lu family." ”
"It's not, looking at this female crown, she has the wind of the forest, like a sister-in-law from a family."
The sound of discussion reached Lu Xianniang's ears, her heart was like pouring boiling oil, and she looked at Gu Yuan fiercely, and she couldn't understand in her heart how that sister-in-law with a low status and ordinary appearance in Wu County could be compared to her one day!
Gu Yuan seemed to feel the sharp gaze that stayed on him, slowly raised his head, and looked at Lu Xianniang, facing the domineering Lu Xianniang, Gu Yuan did not show weakness, just looked at her calmly, his eyes were like water, calm and steady, not shaken by Lu Xianniang's provocation at all.
After a long time, Lu Xianniang turned her face slightly, no longer looking at Gu Yuan, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
To Gu Yuan's surprise, the banquet was exceptionally calm, Lu Xianniang had been sitting next to Mrs. Lu San, laughing with the ladies, and she didn't even look at Gu Yuan anymore, and even Cui Ting didn't take another look, as if she was no longer willing to pay attention to it.
And everyone at the banquet was also chatting, laughing and drinking peacefully, everything looked very normal, as if this ceremony was really just to celebrate Lu Xianniang and Lu, and invited Gu Yuan to watch the ceremony.
Although Gu Yuan didn't show it on her face, she was always on guard in her heart, paying attention to every move of everyone at the table, she didn't believe that Lu Xianniang was really without malice.
But until Xi San, there was no abnormality, Lu Xianniang smiled slightly and personally sent the guests out, and when Gu Yuan passed by her, she suddenly smiled and said, "Immortal Chang wants to go back to Changchun?" ”
Gu Yuan frowned, and still replied politely: "Yes, sister-in-law is in trouble?" ”
Lu Xianniang smiled: "Another day, Ah Xian will also go to Changchun to view an everlasting lamp, copy the scriptures to ask for the blessing of Tianzun, and ask the immortal chief to pray for me." ”
Gu Yuan bowed slightly: "I should wait for my sister-in-law." ”
Looking at Gu Yuan's back walking away, Lu Xianniang laughed, and laughed heartily from the bottom of her heart, after today, there will probably be no such person as Yuzhen Nuguan in the world, and naturally there will be no Gu Yuan.
When Gu Yuan left the Lu Mansion, her carriage stopped in the Wuyi Alley in front of the mansion. She got into the carriage and told the rider to go back to the house, and the carriage passed through the people and the chariots.
Out of Wuyi Lane, the carriage and the four attendants who followed closely followed walked out of the West City Gate along Zhuque Street and headed towards Changchunguan.
Outside the west city gate is the beautiful royal garden Le Youyuan, all around are the granges of various noble houses, there are not too many people, naturally there are sparse people, and the carriage is walking along the official road.
Gu Yuan, who was sitting in the carriage, thought about the ceremony, and was full of doubts, could it be that Lu Xianniang really just invited her to watch the ceremony? Otherwise, why could she leave the Lu Mansion unharmed?
But she thought about Lu Xianniang's eyes at the end, but she couldn't believe it.
"Hmm!" There was a muffled grunt from outside the carriage, as if something had been hit and fell.
The carriage suddenly listened, Gu Yuan was thrown forward, and barely stabilized herself by holding on to the wall of the carriage, her face suddenly changed, and she quietly opened a line of curtains to look out, but she saw the four attendants who fell next to the carriage.
They were all wounded by a fatal stab, and bright red blood was gurgling from under them, looking shocking.
Someone was outside the carriage! And with bad intentions! Gu Yuan's hand clutched the curtain and turned slightly white, and she became anxious for a while.
This is the official road in the western suburbs of Jiankang, and there are few people coming and going in all directions, but I am afraid that people who come will know that this place is secluded, so they will choose to start here, and it is not so easy to be discovered. And it seems that the means of people, I am afraid that I have not thought of keeping a living mouth at all.
Who could it be that must take her life? Gu Yuan's eyes appeared in front of Lu Xianniang's provocative and smug smile again, she really had other plans!
She gritted her teeth, and she couldn't think too much, she couldn't sit still.
The people outside the carriage were all wearing coarse linen tunics with hemp sleeves and belts around their waists, and they looked like ordinary dealers, but their faces were covered with burlap, and they held bright knives in their hands, staring at the motionless carriage and approaching step by step.
They were instructed to take the man in the carriage anyway, to take it alive, and to bring the body back if she resisted desperately.
It's just that since the attendant was killed, the carriage has not moved, and the people inside seem to be stunned, and they don't even react at all.
The leader walked over suspiciously, opened the curtain of the carriage with a knife, and wanted to see what the situation was, but was surprised to find that the carriage was empty, and there was no one inside!
"What about people?!" Sackcloth's face was full of consternation, and he shouted angrily, "Didn't you say in the carriage? ”
The few people who followed were also panicked, they had to be ordered to dispose of the female crown in the carriage, but now the people are gone!
They looked around, but they saw the vast mountains and forests and barren grass, but there was no human figure.
"Could it be that you went down in Jiankang City just now?" Someone speculated.
"Yes, the carriage stopped in front of the city gate, could it be that it went down there?" Someone chimed in.
The leader was very suspicious, the carriage and the attendants were here, how could people go down, but now there is no one to see, and it is only possible that they really got off.
He said in a deep voice: "Follow me to the city gate to look for her, and be sure to take her." ”
"But how do you send it to the Thirteen Fangs if you take it? The bustards there don't have much to do with us! ”
"My sister-in-law has already arranged it, if she is captured alive, she will be thrown into the painting boat on the Qinhuai River, and someone will take her to training, and then there will be another Oiran lady in the thirteenth fang!"
Their voices grew farther and farther away, and it seemed that they had really gone to the city gate to search for their traces.
Gu Yuan slowly let go of her hand and climbed down from under the carriage, just now she quietly climbed down from under the flap in the carriage, grabbed the crossbeam under the carriage and half-hung under the carriage to hide.
Looking at the group of people who had gone without a shadow, Gu Yuan felt a chill in his heart, Lu Xianniang actually wanted to sell her to the Thirteenth Square to be a prostitute! (To be continued.) )
