Chapter 205: A Lot of Things
Dingzhou, the residence of the uncle.
Tonight, a rush broke the silence here, Uncle Guo didn't know that Lu Guitang had arrived at the boundary of Dingzhou, but he was surprised but knew that Lu Guitang was injured, so he was naturally scared into a cold sweat, he first ordered to search the border of Dingzhou for any fish that had slipped through the net, and then personally went to take Lu Guitang to the house.
He and the others were stained, and because they were Gu Jiangyuan's family, they naturally won Li Changping's respect, and when Gu Haomian found the two of them back, they were also invited to the house to settle down.
Everyone in the main hall sat around, Lu Guitang's injuries had been dealt with, and he was now telling Uncle Guo about what happened tonight.
Gu Jin's family sat beside them, only listening to his words, not only stating the holy decree, but also not forgetting to state Helian Qi's escape together, only omitting the reason why he appeared in the inn where Gu Jin was staying.
Uncle Guo's surname is Li, his name is Changping, he is Lu Guitang's uncle, his age is similar to Gu Jiangyuan, but in the end, he is a royal clan, and he doesn't see Gu Jiangyuan's weathered state for a long time, but he is more tired, but I don't know if it is because he was woken up at night or because he has been fighting wits and courage with Huang Hao for many years.
He listened quietly to Lu Guitang's narration, and the angry look on his face intensified.
After hearing this, he raised his hand and slapped the back of the chair, and said angrily: "Huang Hao's gang has been in chaos for so many years, but this is really the first time that they have burned and looted like this!" ”
He and Gu Xiang were a little panicked when they heard this, why had they been peaceful for so many years, but they let them catch up with each other after a turmoil? There is a saying that you die before you get out of school, and I don't know if it's appropriate to use it here.
Gu Jin didn't say a word from beginning to end, but she took in all the expressions of everyone, she and Lu Guitang glanced at each other, and there was a thought in their hearts: this matter is about what they had guessed before that Huang Hao and Helian Qi colluded, this time Helian Qi absconded back to Gui's, if there is a move, Huang Hao may be able to know, not only knowing that the country has external troubles, but also knowing that the imperial court has no energy to clean up their internal worries at this time, and they are a little rampant, but it is easy to understand.
Lu Guitang did not tell Li Changping this directly, only skipped the matter, and repeated the purpose of this trip: "Uncle, I thought that this time I could have suppressed the arrogance of Huang Hao and others, but I didn't expect that tonight's incident would happen, Huang Lu is in the deep forest, but sooner or later he will know who they almost lost in the inn tonight, so his arrogance will not decrease but increase, but it is not very good." ”
Li Changping nodded yes, and said: "The left and right saints have ordered His Highness to come in person, why don't you stay here for a few more days, and study this plan with your uncle to suppress the bandits?" ”
The two nephews and uncles both had something to say, and He and Gu Xiang couldn't detect anything abnormal, but they didn't escape Gu Haomian and Gu Jin's ears.
It's just that they don't know Li Changping's personality, and he is an outsider in tonight's affairs, so it's not easy to say much.
A room of people greeted each other with concern, and Li Changping said that it was getting late, and asked He and the others to go back and rest.
Li Changping has been in Dingzhou for many years, and the mansion here is on par with the mansion in Bianliang, there are many guest rooms, and the people in the house are also diligent, and after a while, they cleaned up the guest rooms for He and others.
They are all used to living a rich life, and they have found an ordinary inn before, and they already feel very aggrieved, but now they have the guest room placement in the uncle's mansion, which is naturally very agreeable.
Gu Jin also followed the maid in the house back to the room, a elegant room is gorgeous, not like the image of Bianliang Zhonghua, but it will never lose the royal bearing.
It was already late night, and she was so tired that she should have immediately fallen down on the bed to rest, but she paced and sat down at the table again.
The moonlight was like water, reflecting the clear body of the girl in front of the table, and she was reaching out and knocking on the table.
"Buckle ...... Knock...... Knock ......"
But after knocking a dozen times, her slightly squinted eyes suddenly opened, and she turned her head sideways, staring thoughtfully at the black shadow outside the window.
Gu Jin got up, but instead of opening the window, she opened the door, and she said softly: "You have an injury on your arm, go through the door." ”
After a while, Lu Guitang paced in with a lazy smile, sat down on the other side of the table leisurely, and teased: "The way of the world has really changed, and the second miss of the Gu family has learned to care about people." ”
Gu Jin ignored her and sat down beside him, but took out a porcelain bottle from his arms.
"Untie the bandage, I think the military doctor just used for you is just an ordinary knife medicine, change this, Imperial Doctor Chen gave it."
Before Gu Jin left the court, Chen Xiangsheng had come to the door, and Soluo Luo sent Gu Jin a number of medicine bottles and ointments, and the bottle that Gu Jin held in his hand at this time was the wound medicine he carefully concocted, claiming that the sword on the battlefield has no eyes, and this medicine has a miraculous effect on blood coagulation.
Chen Xiangsheng's medical skills, Lu Guitang and Gu Jin are naturally trustworthy, and at that moment, Lu Guitang lifted his sleeves, and Gu Jin unbandaged him, revealing bright red flesh and blood.
Noticing Gu Jin's frowning expression, Lu Guitang only felt a softness in his heart, and hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt." ”
Gu Jin raised his eyes slightly, revealing the clear light in his eyes, as if he was ...... I don't see much distressed looks.
"I'm frowning because you've been injured this time, and I feel a little sorry, not because I feel sorry for you." She opened her mouth lightly, and she had already figured out all Lu Guitang's thoughts.
He smiled deeply, ignoring what Gu Jin said, only understood all the words as his own meaning, and then reduced them to one sentence: "You just feel sorry for me." ”
Although Gu Jin didn't affirm this, she didn't deny it, she gently opened the porcelain bottle and applied the ointment inside to Lu Guitang's wound.
His slightly frowning brows suddenly relaxed, only to feel that the cool feeling on the wound came over, covering up the stinging and burning pain in the past, and he couldn't help but praise Chen Xiangsheng again in his heart.
Gu Jin saw that his expression softened slightly, and then he opened his mouth to get to the point: "Before you came here, you came here to close the mountain, but now it seems that the connection between Huang Hao and Helian Qi is more important than the closure of the mountain." ”
This is also the reason why Gu Jin knew that Lu Guitang would come to look for her tonight, and after many experiences, the two have a tacit understanding, and they can understand each other's thoughts without words.
Lu Guitang sighed slightly, and seemed reluctant to enter this head-scratching topic so quickly, but there were many things here, but he couldn't help but delay it for too long, he said: "According to what my uncle said, it's the first time that Huang Hao and others have done it for the first time to openly go to the inn outside Dingzhou City to kill people and set fire to them like tonight. ”
"It's not a coincidence."
Lu Guitang nodded, and on this point, he had no objection.
"But who do you think tonight is coming for?"
