Aloof?
Gu Tingge lowered his eyes, not letting the complicated thoughts in his eyes be peeped into by the Xu family.
How can you stay away?
As the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Zhongyong and the only daughter of General Dingxi, even if she doesn't want to be involved with the royal family, how can the royal people let her go?
What's more, in this life, she has to bury everything that Qin Jingwen is proud of!
Xu Shi saw Gu Qingge bowing her head and was silent, thinking that she was tired, so she said: "You just woke up and said such a thing, you must be tired, rest quickly, and my mother will come to see you later." ”
Gu Tingge nodded, Xu got up, lovingly stroked Gu Tingge's long hair, and left with Su Yun after some advice.
After Xu left, Gu Qingge did not lie down to rest, but looked at Mama Xin on the side and said, "Mama, how many days have I been asleep?" ”
"It's been three days." Mama Xin sighed, "Fortunately, Miss woke up today, otherwise the lord and the lady really don't know what to look like in a hurry." ”
Three days?
Thinking of what Ouyang Kai said about the underwater breathlessness and coldness, Gu Qingge had a faint conjecture in his heart.
"It's my fault to worry my father and mother." Gu Tingge's words changed sharply, and he asked tentatively, "How is Tianli now?" ”
"She's so good! Lively every day! Mama Xin's tone was not good, and it was difficult to hide her anger, "Poor young lady, you tried your best to save her, but her conscience was eaten by wolves, and she never even came!" ”
Isn't it just that the conscience has been eaten by wolves?
Gu Tianli must have thought that she must be hopeless when she fell into the water this time, otherwise how could she, who has always been good at acting, let go of such an image of showing her affinity and sisters?
Gu Tingge hooked his lips sarcastically, heh, Gu Tingli really couldn't wait!
This Gu Tingli is a second-room concubine, only a few months younger than Gu Tingge, with a gentle and virtuous temperament, and quite a noble lady of the Hou Mansion.
In her previous life, Gu Tianli relied on her identity as a concubine to become the wife of Zhang Xianyi, a scholar in the fourth rank of the dynasty, which can be described as infinite scenery for a while.
According to Gu Xihua's words, after the Gu family was wiped out, Gu Tingli still sat on the throne of the wife of the fourth rank master, which is enough to show that Gu Tingli is not as gentle and virtuous as she seems on the surface.
From the news that she had just tried, Gu Tingge knew that she was reborn back to five years ago, when she was thirteen years old.
The reason why she was sick in bed was because she fell into the water when she went to Guan Lake to enjoy the cherry blossoms at the invitation of Gu Tianli.
Guan Lake was dug by Gu Yongkun specially to commemorate his wife Liu, and was named Guan Lake because there is a word "Guan" in Liu's boudoir name.
Wanhu Lake is located on the right side of the gate of the Zhongyong Marquis's Mansion, covering an area as big as two women's boudoirs, and it is a must for the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.
The reason why Wanhu Lake is called a must is because of the cherry blossoms.
Cherry blossom is a kind of flower unique to Chengguo, which blooms in early winter and blooms in the first cold wind, so it is also called winter wisp flower.
Sakura camellia grows in demanding conditions, surviving in crystal clear water, and requires a species of fish called Sakura.
As the name suggests, the cherry fish and the cherry blossom are dependent on each other to survive, and feed on the cherry insects that like the winter most on the cherry blossom path, and both the cherry blossom and the cherry fish live on extremely high mountain tops, and are rarely seen on land.
Back then, Gu Yongkun exhausted all the methods and searched for capable people, and only ten cherry blossoms survived.
Cherry blossom shape such as peony, fragrant like lily, blooming in the first cold wind of winter, flowering period for a whole winter, withering in the first warm wind of spring, is a very magical flower that is not afraid of frost but afraid of warm sun.
It is precisely because of the special and precious cherry blossoms that the greatest pleasure of the Marquis of Zhongyong Mansion in winter is to go to Wanhu Lake to enjoy the cherry blossoms.
Gu Tingge was no exception, that day coincided with the last day of winter, Gu Tingli invited her to go to Wanhu Lake to enjoy the flowers, and she took Nuan Su to the invitation.
It was late winter, and the weather was still condensed and the temperature was close to zero.
Gu Tingge and Gu Tingli stood by the lake to enjoy the flowers, Gu Tingli said that such a beautiful scenery should be accompanied by the sound of the piano, so he sent his personal maid Yichun back to ask for it.
After that, it was said that there was a scene, a piano, and tea, and he borrowed Nuan Su from Gu Tingge to prepare refreshments.
At that time, Gu Tingge didn't pay attention to all this, and was concentrating on admiring the cherry blossoms, and at this time, something happened suddenly.
Gu Tingli didn't know what was tripped under her feet, and she stumbled and slammed into Gu Tingge.
Because Gu Tingge has been practicing martial arts with Gu Jianwen since he was a child, although he is a woman, he has also obtained a part of Gu Jianwen's true biography, so the wind brought by Gu Tingli's collision made Gu Tingge alert, and his body subconsciously turned to the side and avoided it.
Gu Tianli was not so lucky, accompanied by her screams and the sound of falling into the water, her whole body fell into the lake because of her unstable center of gravity, and kept struggling on the surface of the water.
Gu Tingge didn't have time to think about it, and his body had already jumped down.
The lake water in winter was extremely cold, even a little biting, and the cold Gu Tingge suddenly shivered, but when she saw Gu Tingli who was still calling for help not far away, she gritted her teeth and swam towards Gu Tingli.
When she grabbed Gu Tingli, Gu Tingli's eyes were slightly closed, her lips were already purple, but her hands were subconsciously grasping Gu Tingge's shoulders, and she was constantly struggling under her feet.
Gu Tingge tried hard to grab Gu Tingli and swim towards the shore, but then she didn't know why, she only felt that her body was getting heavier and heavier, and her consciousness was becoming more and more confused, and the overwhelming cold water swept in, and then she lost consciousness.
Gu Tingge only felt suspicious when he thought about it now.
In her previous life, she never doubted Gu Tingli and was deceived by her gentle and virtuous appearance, but now, seeing the faces of the Gu family's rooms, the more Gu Tingge thought about it, the more she felt that Gu Tingli was deliberate.
First of all, Gu Tingli should have deliberately taken away the maid beside the two of them, and secondly, she deliberately wanted to bump herself into the water, but she didn't expect to be avoided by herself, so she deliberately pestered her underwater, so that she held her breath underwater and her life hung by a thread.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingge suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
She reached for the thin collar of her bedgown and looked over her right shoulder.
Mama Xin on the side was a little surprised by her movements, and asked out loud, "Miss is this?"
Before she finished speaking, her eyes widened suddenly, she stepped forward, grabbed Gu Tiange's arm tightly, and examined it carefully.
The shoulders exposed by the collar were creamy, but several finger prints were faintly visible, and next to one of them, there was a red dot that was so small that it could hardly be seen without looking closely.
This red dot is so subtle that people who don't know the inside story will think it's a small red mole even if they see it.
