Chapter 165: Robbery while the fire is on fire
Wei Yuchuan followed two panicked voices in his heart, worried and uneasy.
Today, the Gu Mansion is in mourning, and the people in the Mansion are guarding the mourning hall, if it is almost evening today, who will lie on the roof and make noise?
Now a few maids are not there, only her and Gu Jin are in the house, if there is really a thief who wants to take advantage of the fire to rob, wouldn't they be like fish on a sticky board?
If it's really a thief, it's okay to say, if it is......
Wei Yuchuan closed his eyes suddenly, didn't dare to continue thinking about it, and got up to open the window to call for help.
"Miss Wei, it's me."
A lazy voice suddenly came, Wei Yuchuan's footsteps paused, and the voice seemed somewhat familiar.
I was about to ask who it was, when suddenly a shadow peeked down from the roof and was reflected outside the window, looking like a ghost.
Wei Yuchuan was so frightened that he almost exclaimed, and hurriedly raised his hand to cover his mouth.
"Lord Wang?"
In the twilight of that day, a person hung upside down, a plain robe hung down to almost cover the twilight behind him, leaving only a plump and handsome face.
It turned out to be Lu Guitang.
Wei Yuchuan hadn't come back to his senses yet, but he saw Lu Guitang turn over, fall from the hanging roof, stand in front of the window, and be handsome again.
"I heard she's sick, can I go inside and have a look?"
Wei Yuchuan suddenly realized that she knew the relationship between Lu Guitang and Gu Jin, and when she heard this, she looked back at the sleeping girl on the couch again, and then nodded.
"Okay, I'll go outside and guard some for the prince."
Lu Guitang smiled happily when he heard this, and was about to pace into the house, but he seemed to suddenly remember something and stopped Wei Yuchuan, who was about to go out.
"Miss Wei, I'm afraid, there is someone who has to help me stop it."
Wei Yuchuan was stunned.
I only heard Lu Guitang say again: "My imperial brother is also here." ”
……
The night breeze was silent, Wei Yuchuan carried the lantern alone and went in the direction that Lu Guitang said, and just turned out of the small courtyard of the evening window pavilion, he saw Lu Chengxiu also coming with the lamp.
Wei Yuchuan suddenly stopped, and there was a short distance between the two.
Lu Chengxiu came today to pay tribute to the old lady of the Gu family, dressed very plainly, and the clothes were plain, so he couldn't hide his bearing, he was luxurious, steady, and even more Lu Guitang.
She spoke, like blue and snow: "Why is the prince here?" ”
Lu Chengxiu handed the lantern in his hand forward, and only then did he see clearly that the woman in front of him was Wei Yuchuan, and he had a marriage contract with her, but he was still not familiar with her.
Lu Chengxiu sighed, and asked instead of answering: "Why is Miss Wei here?" ”
Wei Yuchuan was silent for two moments, and then carried the lantern a little closer to him: "I am good friends with Miss Gu Er, and now that something has happened to the Gu Mansion, I should naturally come to help." ”
Lu Chengxiu nodded, but he seemed to have unfinished words, and hesitated for two moments before asking, "I heard that Miss Gu is not well, is it okay?" ”
Wei Yuchuan's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he suddenly understood Lu Guitang's intention to ask her to come and stop Lu Chengxiu, he didn't know when he was also obsessed with Gu Jinsheng, if he hadn't stopped him here at this time, he should have arrived at the Evening Window Pavilion.
She pursed her lips and replied with a smile, "It's fine." ”
Seeing that Lu Chengxiu's expression suddenly calmed down when he heard this, he was relieved in his heart, and personally sent Lu Chengxiu out.
In the evening window pavilion, Lu Guitang kept watch by Gu Jin's bed for half the night, and the night was already dark.
The moonlight is like water entering the house, hitting the clear face of the girl on the couch, adding two points of loneliness.
Lu Guitang got up and cut the burning wick, and went to the edge of the bed to sit down, only to see Gu Jin's pale face even more haggard.
A sudden pain welled up in his heart, and he felt that it was not easy to take care of him.
If she was not born in an official family, but just a woman from an ordinary family, she would have a stable and worry-free life. But she was born in Marshal Gu's Mansion, the first bell in Bianliang City, and she was not Gu Xiang's arrogant and willful young lady, she was a concubine.
Born in a wealthy family, but still struggling.
He stretched out his hand and held Gu Jin's hand, and a burning heat faintly came.
Lu Guitang lost his mind for a while, and only muttered: "As soon as your mourning period is over, I will come to the door to propose your relatives and protect you for the rest of your life." ”
But she didn't want the words to fall, so the girl frowned before meeting, and slowly opened her eyes with autumn water.
She looked quite tired, and she was no longer as cold as before, which made Lu Guitang stunned.
"Are you awake?"
Gu Jin set his eyes on Lu Guitang, but he was not deeply surprised by her sudden visit.
It would be even stranger if he didn't come.
Gu Jin nodded, but he didn't smile, and only said softly: "I woke up for a while, and I couldn't open my eyes." ”
Lu Guitang still used to hold her hand for a while, and there was a cold current in her heart, she said that she had woken up for a while, that is, she had heard what she had just said?
Sure enough, seeing Gu Jin's fingertips move, he didn't withdraw his hand from his palm, but only asked again: "What did you just say, protect me?" ”
Lu Guitang was sure in his heart, and then he brought out a lazy smile, he got up, leaned over again, put his lips to her ear and whispered: "I said, I want to marry you and protect you for the rest of your life." ”
After saying this, when he got up, he didn't forget to peck a dragonfly on Gu Jin's jade face.
Gu Jin only felt a burning sensation on his face, his breathing was short, and his eye knife was thrown out: "Lu Guitang, you took advantage of the fire to rob it, right?" ”
Lu Guitang got up and shrugged his shoulders, feeling that such a word to rob while the fire was appropriate.
Gu Jin saw his smug expression, and he didn't feel angry in his heart, and was about to speak again, but suddenly coughed a few times.
Lu Guitang panicked, raised his hand and slapped his head.
"In my brain, I forgot that you are still sick, Imperial Doctor Chen said that you will drink medicine when you wake up, I will go and see if the decoction is ready."
Gu Jin looked at Lu Guitang's figure leaving in a hurry, and a burst of warmth surged in her heart, she was familiar with his temperament, so naturally she would not really be angry with him, and a heart that had been filled with sadness for a few days finally gave birth to a little joy at this moment.
Lu Guitang had just gone out to the small kitchen, but saw that Wei Yuchuan had already come over with a medicine bowl.
When Wei Yuchuan saw him come out, she had a little guess in her heart, she smiled gently, and her voice faded into the cold winter: "She's awake?" ”
If it weren't for Gu Jin's awakening, Lu Guitang would definitely still be in the house at this time.
Lu Guitang nodded, and turned sideways to let Wei Yuchuan into the house.
"Erzhen."
"Hmm."
The girl on the couch whispered, although the voice was small, it was enough to calm Wei Yuchuan's worried mood a lot.
She brought the medicine bowl in her hand closer, raised her hand to hold the spoon and stirred it, and said with a smile: "It's considered awake, you don't know, I was frightened when Yunqian came to me today." ”
The corners of Gu Jin's mouth forced a smile, "I'm worried about you." ”
When he said this, Lu Guitang had already followed in again.
