Chapter Seventy-Three: The Uninvited Guest
If it weren't for the early death of the crown prince today, Gu Ziqing felt that the position of the emperor would be passed on to Ying Heng as a matter of course.
But now, he doesn't have the support of the prince behind him, and Ying Heng doesn't seem to be liked by today's saints, so that position can be said to have a very shallow fate with him.
Ying Heng is now desperately pacifying the border passes, and I don't know who is fighting the world for?
Come to think of it. Gu Ziqing looked at Ying Heng's eyes, and couldn't help but be covered with a layer of mist, and even his mood became heavy.
Just as she was thinking to herself, Ying Heng suddenly withdrew her gaze, looked at Gu Ziqing and said, "Let's go! There are officials here, let's go back first! Let Song Su take over tomorrow." ”
Gu Ziqing nodded slightly, followed Ying Heng and took two steps, only then did he react, just now he said that he would hand over this place to the newly appointed governor of Jiangnan to deal with, and now let Song Su take over, does that mean that the position of governor of Jiangnan is Song Su's?
After realizing this, the corners of Gu Ziqing's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and he seemed to be happier than himself.
Sure enough, the hard work paid off, her thigh was really not wrong, and no one would dare to touch the Gu family in the future.
In this way, Gu Ziqing got into the carriage with this joy and returned to the Gu family all the way.
When they arrived at the gate of Gu's mansion, it was already evening, and everyone got out of the car and went back to their respective rooms.
Gu Ziqing and Lu Cao arranged a place for Bao'er and them to live, and invited Shen Langzhong to check on them until they were sure that Bao'er and they were not injured, and Gu Ziqing mentioned the heart of the throat, and then put it back in his stomach.
After finishing everything, Gu Ziqing dragged his tired body, returned to the room and fell asleep, dreamless all night.
At the same time, the night was like water, and the entire Gu Mansion fell into a quiet silence, and Ye Canglan's room ushered in an uninvited guest.
He opened the door, looked at the person in front of him and said, "Your Highness, is there anything wrong with coming to me so late?"
"I can't sleep at night, wandering around, seeing that your room is still lit, I want to talk to Ye Gongzi. Ying Heng said sincerely.
The room was still lit, because I knew he was coming, so I waited until now.
Ye Canglan thought in his heart, but looked at him with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but quip, "Your Highness walks around other people's houses in the middle of the night like this, but it's not very good!"
"That's why His Highness came to find Ye Gongzi!"
After Ying Heng finished speaking, both of them laughed.
After a while, when they had laughed enough, Ye Canglan flashed to the side and invited Ying Heng into the room.
"Your Highness, sit casually, don't be restrained. ”
Ye Canglan said as he walked to the table and went to pour tea for Ying Heng.
Ying Heng accepted his words in his mouth, but the person did not sit down, but walked around his room.
Ye Canglan poured the tea, turned around, and saw this scene, he didn't say anything, just put the tea that was to be given to Ying Heng back on the table, and then folded his arms, leaned on the table, and looked meaningfully at the people who were wandering around the room.
After a while, Ying Heng turned around, but didn't find what he wanted to see, so he walked back to the table.
Seeing him coming, Ye Canglan picked up the teacup on the table again, held it with both hands and handed it over, and then said casually: "This is not my original residence, it was after Qingqing rescued me that I was settled here." ”
Ye Canglan's words were to tell Ying Heng that it was impossible for him to observe something according to the environment.
What he was looking for, he couldn't find it so quickly.
Hearing his words, Ying Heng raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with some feigned surprise: "Miss Gu saved you?"
Of course, it was not the first time he and Ye Canglan had met, it was just a previous meeting, and he and Gu Ziqing didn't know that it was him.
After the last Liu family's wedding banquet, when they were chatting in the teahouse, he heard Gu Ziqing talk about the matter between her and Ye Canglan.
But today, it was the first time he and Ye Canglan had met in the real sense, so when he brought up this topic, Ying Heng could only treat it as if he didn't know, and continued to ask, so as to prevent revealing flaws and being discovered by Ye Canglan.
"Yes, when I was injured, it was thanks to Qingqing who passed by and saved me, otherwise I would have died that time. Ye Canglan shook his head helplessly and said.
"In this way, Miss Gu is still your benefactor!" Ying Heng couldn't help but sigh, "But Miss Gu is really kind-hearted! No matter what happens, she is willing to lend a helping hand." ”
After that, Ying Heng took the teacup, and then sat down in his robe.
Seeing him like this, Ye Canglan also sat down, and echoed in his mouth, "Yes! Otherwise, I wouldn't have decided to stay by her side and protect her for the rest of my life after my injury healed!"
These words were never said by Ye Canglan to Gu Ziqing, and when he decided to stay, he still used such a lame reason!
However, in his heart, it doesn't matter whether he says these words or not, as long as others really stay by Gu Ziqing's side, it is enough.
Hearing him say this, Ying Heng couldn't help but look sideways, and the emotion in his eyes was unclear.
After a while, Ying Heng retracted his gaze, and then said casually: "Then where did Ye Gongzi rise before he met Miss Gu?"
"Wander around, go wherever you can eat. Ye Canglan's tone was desolate, and it was difficult to hide the loneliness on his face.
Ying Heng couldn't help but look at him with some surprise, "What about Ye Gongzi's family?"
"It's long gone. Ye Canglan pretended to be relaxed and said, "When I was very young, my parents died, and I was left to wander around alone, until now. ”
"It's His Royal Highness who is abrupt, and I hope that Ye Gongzi will not be surprised. Ying Heng said apologetically.
Ye Canglan smiled and said indifferently: "Your Highness doesn't have to say that, you don't know it, so you will ask, and over the years, there are not a few people who ask about it, and I have long been used to it." ”
After listening to his words, Ying Hengwu was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "Since this is the case, I will be abrupt again, I don't know how Ye Gongzi's parents passed away?"
He was extremely interested in Ye Canglan's life experience, because he went to the north to steal the dagger back then, Ying Heng still can't figure it out, so he will come to Ye Canglan tonight to chat with Ye Canglan after everyone in the mansion has slept.
The purpose is to get to know him well, and Ying Heng always feels that a person will not run so far to steal a dagger for no reason.
This man must have something else to do, so he has to go to the north, as for what?
