Chapter 142: Marriage
For several days, someone always came to harass Zhou Xun and sent someone to investigate, but without exception, every time someone came to make trouble, Gu Muzhi sent him.
The actions of the imperial court have completely worn out Zhou Xun's patience, although the power of the mother clan has now been divided into two, but in some matters, they still need to work together and be unanimous with the outside world.
Zhou Xun naturally understands this reason, it is probably a little impossible to want Qin Boyong to cooperate with him, if even Gu Muzhi hurts himself for doing it, he will have no chance of winning.
"Childe, it's all cleaned up, let's go back."
After solving another wave of officers and soldiers who came to die, Xiao An's expression was happy, and when he saw Zhou Xun standing aside in a daze, he hurriedly went up and reminded softly.
"Hmm. By the way, you go down and prepare, hold a banquet in the garden tonight, and by the way, send someone to invite all the powerful people of the mother clan over, and my son has something to discuss with them. ”
Presumably the son had a plan, and Xiao An didn't ask the reason after he got down, he just needed to do what he told him to do.
"It's not just the people from our side, but also the people from Gu Muzhi's side."
"Why? Isn't Childe making trouble for himself by doing this? "Right now, Gu Muzhi is fighting with them openly and secretly, if he finds them, wouldn't he just give them a chance?
"My son has his own plans, this matter will be handed over to you, my son is tired, go back to sleep first." Zhou Xun didn't want to explain too much, waved his hand, and then turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
Xiao An was puzzled, but he didn't dare to delay for a moment, first ordered the kitchen to prepare dishes and snacks, and then personally went to Li Yan's mansion to invite them to a banquet.
Li Yan originally wanted to refuse, but Gu Muzhi said that he could go, and this matter would be beneficial to them and harmless. It has been some time since the sect has been on its own, and it is time to take this opportunity to confront it face to face.
Night falls. With Xiao An's personal supervision, the subordinates naturally did not dare to slack off, the banquet in the garden had already been prepared, and the guests on Zhou Xun's side were all ready, just waiting for Gu Muzhi's people.
Zhou Xun sat on the upper seat, and never saw Gu Muzhi's figure, he was a little anxious, for fear that he would make a mistake, but he still kept calm on his face, pretending to be calm and eating snacks.
"Sorry, it's late."
Finally, Gu Muzhi came, Zhou Xun immediately got up with a smile and stepped forward, and was about to reach out to pull Gu Muzhi's hand, but Gu Muzhi deftly dodged it.
"This son will take you to your seat." With so many people watching, Fang Cai's scene may have become the laughing stock of everyone, thinking like this, Zhou Xun's smile became far-fetched.
"Don't bother with it, just find a place to sit down." Gu Muzhi turned his head and gestured to Li Yan, and the two of them went straight to the upper seat that originally belonged to Zhou Xun and sat down casually, and the others also found a vacant seat and sat down.
"Childe, that's your seat, do you want to go down and say something?" Watching his son-in-law being occupied by a dove, Xiao An felt a little uncomfortable.
"No need, just a seat." Zhou Xun's eyes flashed with a hint of depth, and he couldn't help but glance at the guests below, and found that everyone was dissatisfied with Gu Muzhi.
Good, that's what he meant to be. An evil smile gradually appeared on his face, and Zhou Xun found a place to sit down at random.
Now that all the guests have arrived, the banquet will soon begin.
Xiao An was afraid that he would be bored just by drinking and eating, so he arranged for the dancing girl to dance, there was wine, meat and beauty, which was naturally a pleasure, and for a while, people on both sides were intoxicated with the song and swallow dance, and no matter what enemy and friend, they began to toast each other.
For a while, the sound of music and laughter was mixed together, and even more, while the wine was strong, he began to dance with the dancing girl.
Zhou Xun's attention was not here, he always sat alone, if someone came to toast him, he said that he was unwell, and refused with a smile.
Seeing this, everyone stopped being bored with themselves, and it didn't take long to take the initiative to disturb him again.
Gu Muzhi was accompanied by Li Yan, and the two sat on the top position, taking the opportunity to have a good relationship with those who had just been wooed, so Gu Muzhi inevitably drank, and after a while, her cheeks turned crimson, and she even began to sway when she walked, and it could be seen that she was a little drunk.
"In the future, I will have to worry about Miss Gu to take care of me!" The person in front of him had just exchanged pleasantries with Gu Muzhi, and both of them were shaking at the moment.
Gu Muzhi is happy today, and with Li Yan accompanying her, she naturally has no worries in her heart, and just wants to take the opportunity to gather a few more people for her own use.
"Ah Zhi, you're drunk, stop drinking, let's go, I'll send you back to rest."
Zhou Xun saw that Gu Muzhi began to stagger when he walked, and Li Yan had also been entangled by the person he had deliberately arranged, so he saw the opportunity and stepped forward to take Gu Muzhi into his arms.
Gu Muzhi did drink a little too much, but her consciousness was still quite sober, and she instinctively resisted Zhou Xun's actions, and she reached out to push Zhou Xun away, but her strength was too small to have any effect at all.
"Li Yan! Where are you? Gu Muzhi saw that he didn't have the strength to push Zhou Xun away, so he wanted to open his mouth again to call Li Yan over, but at this time, Li Yan was entangled by several people at the same time, and he couldn't get out of it at all.
"Ah Zhi, don't worry, no one will come over at this time." Zhou Xun smiled evilly, and whispered with his mouth close to Gu Muzhi's ear.
This action seemed too intimate to others, and many people who saw it began to bow their heads and talk about it.
"Hmph, Zhou Xun, don't you want to do anything to me!" Of course Gu Muzhi is not afraid of him, not to mention that there are so many people of his own here, besides, he is no longer the weak and incompetent Gu Muzhi who doesn't remember anything, how can he be easily bullied by him Zhou Xun?
"Ah Zhi, you are very wrong to think so, when did I really hurt you? Remember? On the night of the lantern banquet, under the pavilion, I told you that we were a match made in heaven. ”
Zhou Xun said, his other hand took the opportunity to help Gu Muzhi's waist, and before Gu Muzhi could speak, he continued to speak: "Give me a chance, let me protect you, okay?" Zhou Xun lowered his head and stared affectionately into Gu Muzhi's eyes.
Gu Muzhi was strong because of the wine, and at the moment when he met Zhou Xun's eyes, he actually had the illusion that the person in front of him was Qin Boyong.
Qin Boyong's affectionate gaze and gentle words were the first time for him. Gu Muzhi was a little moved, but after thinking about it, how could Qin Boyong say such a thing to himself?
couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his eyes, and when he looked at it again, the person in front of him was really not Qin Boyong. A nameless anger suddenly surged in Gu Muzhi's heart, and the user pushed Zhou Xun with all his strength.
