Chapter 23: Suspicion

Gu Huanyi greeted him and asked, "What was stolen?" Caught up? ”

Li Congxin checked the money bag in his hand and said, "Catch up, it's okay, let's go." ”

Gu Huanyi couldn't help but nag: "I only knew that the prince was such a person who cherished money, you just chased him out alone, what if something happened?" ”

Li Congxin smiled and said, "A few little thieves, what can happen." ”

Gu Huanyi said with a serious face: "That's what you don't know!" This place is a place of commerce, so there are a lot of thieves. I heard that there is a thief named Xiaoxin here, who has a good body and has committed countless crimes, but the government has not caught him for several years, and many people who are chasing him have been taken into ambushes by him and suffered. ”

After saying that, she was stunned.

Those thieves were extremely fast, and in retrospect, they were not ordinary people.

"Just now...... Isn't it ......"

Gu Huanyi was not sure, and looked at Li Congxin repeatedly, and saw that his shoes were not dirty, so he stopped nagging.

Li Congxin saw that she guessed, so he said bluntly to her: "I heard of this thief when I was investigating the case in Liangzhou before, and he specializes in art, I want to find him to do something, but I haven't found it for a long time, but I didn't expect him to bump into my hand this time." ”

Gu Huanyi glanced at Li Congxin, and seriously suspected that Li Congxin wanted her to buy and buy casually today, just to expose her foreign wealth and attract thieves to steal!

Feeling that he was being used by him, Gu Huanyi said with a little unhappiness: "The prince still has something to do with the thief?" Are you colluding with officials and bandits? ”

Li Congxin knew that he was wrong, and said: "It seems that there is something bad ......"

Gu Huanyi took the lead in riding the horse and walked ahead, ignoring Li Congxin.

Li Congxin is looking for a thief to do something, and he must steal something.

Thinking that Li Congxin went to Donglin Army to find evidence but was injured before, Gu Huanyi speculated that he was looking for the thief Xiaoxin also to investigate the case.

But the feeling of being kept in the dark and being used is still very unpleasant.

She was happy all morning, thinking that he had taken herself out to buy something.

If you knew this, you shouldn't save him money, you should buy expensive ones!

Lee caught up with her from his heart, reached out and took the reins of her, and pulled her horse closer to him.

"Angry? I just thought that in case he took the bait, I arranged things together, not just to find him. ”

Gu Huanyi pursed his lips and did not speak.

Li Congxin was actually not very wrong, and explained to her with a low attitude that she shouldn't be angry with Qiao anymore.

However, because of her prophetic faith, she was particularly mindful of others "taking advantage" of her.

Li Congxin used himself in this little thing, so will it be the same in other big things?

It's not so much that she's angry with Li Congxin, it's more like she's fighting with her own suspicions, and she's worried that the seeds of doubt will be planted, and she won't trust Li Congxin anymore.

Li Congxin saw that her face was not good, and felt that she had made a mistake, but she didn't expect her to be so angry about this matter.

He knew that she was not a stingy person, and there must be a reason for her anger, so he asked softly, "Huanyi, what are you thinking, can you tell me?" ”

As soon as Gu Huanyi heard him call his name, his heart softened.

She said aggrievedly: "You told me not to be used before, but what about yourself, aren't you using me?" It's a small thing, but it's ......."

What to say later, Gu Huanyi deliberated on his words, and was momentarily stuck.

She couldn't directly question Li Congxin's use of her in the matter of Gu Jiajun, this hat was too big to be taken off at will.

But Li Congxin listened to half of it and immediately understood.

His expression became serious, and he said seriously: "This time I didn't think about it completely, and I will definitely discuss it with you next time." ”

"Next time?" Gu Huanyi asked.

Li Congxin was speechless for a while, he couldn't guarantee that there would be no next time, if he wanted to do something, he had to use some small means, and many things were related to Gu Huanyi, he didn't know if he could completely take her out.

When Gu Huanyi said that Li Congxin would discuss with her in the future, his anger had already subsided, and the matter was just a bickering.

Seeing that she had asked him, she answered again and said, "If there is a next time, if you need to spend some money to put some blood, I won't teach you to use it so easily." ”

Hearing the joking tone, Li Congxin finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I won't let you suffer this time." ”

After that, she took Gu Huanyi back to Diancui Pavilion and bought the butterfly crown among the flowers that she was reluctant to buy before.

After the little episode, the two talked and it was fine.

Song Zhengrui was alone in Liangzhou, and he was not idle, he felt that last night's meal was not of high grade, and he had a busy day today, and prepared a large table of mountain treasures, and after Li Congxin and Gu Huanyi returned to Liangzhou, the three of them had another big meal.

Li Congxin came out this time, and he couldn't stay for long.

He was originally worried that Gu Huanyi would be too lonely for the New Year alone, and that she would miss her family sadly, but now that she is in good mood and health, he can return to Beijing with peace of mind.

Knowing that Li Congxin was leaving, Gu Huan wanted to bring him some return gifts, but it was inconvenient for him to hurry, so he stayed up all night and made a wolfskin fur hat and came out.

Reluctant to send Li Congxin away, Gu Huanyi and his uncle together, a simple and warm New Year's celebration, in the joyful sound of firecrackers in other people's homes, they gave incense to the deceased family members to pray, although it was inevitable to be sad, but it was also considered to come out, not too sad.

Song Zhengrui saw the situation of the two in his eyes and couldn't help but talk to her about Li Congxin.

"I see that the prince treats you very carefully, and I don't have to worry about your life's affairs, but my uncle still has something to remind you. The road that the prince will take in the future seems to be full of flowers all the way, but in fact, thorns and thorns are secretly born, and the dangers and variables are really unpredictable, whether it is a blessing or a curse, my uncle does not know at the moment. If you really like him, you need to see what this path is. ”

At this time, Song Zhengrui didn't know that Li Congxin had given up the opportunity to be the emperor's heir, but he could say such a heartfelt thing to Gu Huanyi, he really cared about her.

Gu Huanyi didn't casually talk about Li Congxin's decision, and after comforting her uncle and telling him that she would think it through, she paid more attention to Wang Sheng's cultivation of manpower.

The funeral ceremony of the Righteous and Brave Temple is scheduled for March 16, the death day of Gu Jiajun.

After the Spring Festival, there are not many days left.

At the beginning of February, the Ministry of Rites arranged for two palace ladies from the imperial capital to come to Gu's mansion to teach her the etiquette at the funeral ceremony.

The people who come from the palace have big rules and big shelves.

Gu Huanyi learned etiquette according to the rules every day, and transferred two maids named Xingqing and Xingyun from Wang Sheng to serve these two grandmothers.

One of the two grandmothers is surnamed Wu and the other is surnamed Zhou.

Mama Wu is very strict, and has extremely high requirements for Gu Huanyi's standing, sitting, walking, and bowing, Gu Huanyi's legs are swollen every day, if she hadn't resumed martial arts training a few months earlier, I'm afraid that some of them won't be able to survive.
