Chapter 395
Then he pointed to the empty carriage and said to Autumn Shadow, "I'll escort the carriage to the back." You take a few people to drive this carriage back first. Go to Gazi's shop and ask him to empty the basket of vegetables in the back kitchen. Then let him buy some old sacks and bamboo baskets, anyway, he calculated that he could fit two boxes of things. Then a car came to pick me up. ”
Qiu Ying understood what Su Jinyao meant, and planned to steal the beam and change the pillar. Nodding, he asked two people to catch a car and follow her back first.
After walking for a while, Su Jinyao saw a small forest on the side of the road, and ordered someone to open the box containing silk, take out the big red wedding dress and dozens of four seasons dresses inside, throw them in the woods, and burn them.
Anyway, this dress belongs to the princess of Tianze Kingdom, and it is impossible for Su Jinyao to pick up other people's clothes to wear.
As for the wedding dress, Su Jinyao didn't plan to let her get married, is it useful to keep the wedding dress? Burn it cleanly.
The remaining half is good silk satin. Su Jinyao picked it up and picked out a few pieces of fabric that were quite elegant in color and style. The rest was simply given to Autumn Shadow's men and the Dark Generals.
Su Jinyao said: "If you don't wear it, your family can wear it too." I don't give it to the good ones again. If you don't even have a good look, such a good satin as pants will definitely be comfortable to wear. Either when (chuáng) single, sleep on the face slippery, how good. ”
Hearing Su Jinyao say this, those dark generals who were not smiling also laughed.
Some of them had seen Su Jinyao, and some had even learned from her the tricks of close (shēn) fighting and killing. There are also two who have learned poison from Su Jinyao in Zhuangzi, and now they follow Su Jinyao again, but they have discovered the funny side of this woman.
Su Jinyao said again: "Qiu Ying called you dark generals, but I always felt that the real darkness was the master who couldn't be found in the pile." Secretly stabbing and killing people invisibly is the master. Don't keep a strain, smile in the mirror when you're fine, after all, we're not a real killer here, we still need everyone to take care of each other, easy-going and close. ”
After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she could feel that the surface (qíng) of these people was obviously relaxed, and they should have let go of their tense nerves.
Su Jinyao waved her hand and said, "Okay, today's task is completed." Everyone walked back slowly, there was nothing urgent. When Autumn Shadow came to pick us up, we dispersed and went home to rest. ”
"Haha" Everyone also laughed this time, and followed Su Jinyao to walk back slowly.
After walking for more than an hour, Autumn Shadow returned with the carriage.
However, Su Jinyao saw that the horse was still the original one, and the carriage had been replaced.
Originally, it was a painted carriage with painted wheels and painted patterns. It should be because this is a dowry car, so it is to show the difference of the car.
Today's car is an ordinary board car, and it still squeaks when it runs on the road.
When Qiu Ying came closer, Su Jinyao smiled and said, "Okay, do it carefully, and change the car." ”
Qiu Ying said with a smile: "I didn't change them all, I just found two broken cars and changed them with the original car." ”
After speaking, Autumn Shadow pointed to the back of the carriage and said, "The wheels have changed, and the shelves are still the same." It turned out that the bezel of the car was also changed, and it was replaced by another more broken car. However, Dongzi borrowed a planer and gouged the paint of the car, and he couldn't see the original color. ”
Not to mention, after such a change, the original red paint float was installed in the other two cars, and it is really impossible to find out what the original car was like without careful consideration.
Autumn Shadow also saw that one of the boxes in the carriage that originally contained the two boxes was empty, and said with a smile: "The master has already disposed of the box of clothes?" I knew I would have come here with a few fewer baskets. ”
Su Jinyao smiled and said, "You still know me (tǐng) and know that I will dispose of those wedding dresses." However, the guy who loaded the things was not afraid to take too much, he was afraid to take less. Broken baskets and old sacks can be thrown away at any time. ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao and Qiu Ying asked people to hurry up and pour things.
He climbed through the window again
Under the command of Su Jinyao and Qiu Ying, the broken sack was filled with gold and silver ingots, which was as many as three sacks.
Because the gold and silver are too heavy, and the sack is too old and a little rotten, I am afraid that I will pick up the sack and drop the contents out. So I had to stuff the sack into the broken bamboo basket again.
The makeup boxes were not opened, after all, the hairpin ring jewelry contained in them were all fine things, and they were easy to scratch when pressed together or rubbed against each other.
The soil of the site (xìng) was crushed into mud and smeared left and right under the makeup box of the mahogany luodian.
At first glance, the boxes containing the jewels are old and dirty, and they are no longer wooden.
Finally, the rouge, incense powder, and spices were poured out.
Originally, Su Jinyao deliberately threw it directly. Later, I saw that they were all unopened, and they were all used, and they were all suo (xìng) in a small basket.
Su Jinyao handed the small basket to Qiu Ying and said, "Go back and find someone to send these things to Miss Ming." She's in that place where she needs it most. ”
Qiu Ying took the small basket and smiled, "Master, I have really convinced you." Others are scolding without swearing, but you don't open your mouth when you scold. ”
"What words. How am I swearing again? You said I didn't open my mouth, who did I scold? Su Jinyao glanced at Qiu Ying, but smiled.
Qiu Ying raised the small basket with rouge powder in her hand and said, "This is the dowry of the princess of Tianze Kingdom, but you took it directly and sent it to the Qinglou and let the girls there use it, and said that it wasn't a curse?" You have made the princess of Zeguo and the girl of our Red Sleeves Workshop all the way. ”
Su Jinyao pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "You are really clever, what I am thinking in my head has been guessed by you." ”
That's right, Su Jinyao thought so. It's a pity to throw things away, so it's better to give them to the girls in the Red Sleeves Workshop.
In Su Jinyao's heart, the princess of your Tianze Kingdom rushed to the door, but she still played tricks to find fault in Wangjing Town, which was really not as good as the girl from the Red Sleeve Workshop.
Su Jinyao suddenly remembered the jade pendant that Princess Miyina took out yesterday, it seemed to be a lotus flower engraved on the face, right?
That's right, this princess is really a pretending white lotus. And in her bones is the same color as the jade pendant, green, first-class green tea.
When everything was loaded, Su Jinyao ordered: "The car is untied from the horse." The horses were taken away, and the cart and the box were burned. Leave two people behind and watch the carriage burn out before leaving. ”
After saying that, he and Autumn Shadow returned with the others.
Three carriages, two burned. Only three horses remained. The only remaining carriage has now been converted into a broken cart with tattered bamboo baskets and sacks.
When they returned to Wangjing Town, there was no city gate or garrison, and no one paid attention to their car when they entered and exited. This "big deal" can be regarded as done.
Su Jinyao estimated that in some time, that Princess Miina would be able to hear the news.
Back in the courtyard of the ancient family, Su Jinyao asked Qiu Ying to arrange for someone to find a place to stack the cart of things, and lead the carriage and horses to the backyard.
Presumably, the princess of Tianze Kingdom knew that the dowry was gone, and she would not have thought of coming here to check.
Then, the spies sent out by Qiu Ying frequently reported that a total of twenty-five cottages, including Heming Mountain, had begun to set up checkpoints on all the main roads into Beijing.
There is even a small card on one road every dozen miles, and it is estimated that those who enter Beijing to pay tribute will have to break the bank.
Su Jinyao listened to the replies one by one, and felt that the current (qíng) situation was quite satisfactory. All that's left is to see when this blooming situation will reach the surface.
Based on Gu Shangqing's inference, the Gu family would be the first to know about it. Because when Gu Shangqing took Su Jinyao to live in the post house, the Gu family would definitely know the news.
Now, just look at when the Gu family will act. So at present, Su Jinyao just needs to wait patiently.
However, Su Jinyao never expected that the first thing she was waiting for was not the news of the Gu family, nor Gu Shangqing, but ...... Gu Xuebin.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, (qíng) when people climb the wall!
Su Jinyao didn't know how Gu Xuebin avoided the spies scattered around the Gu family and jumped directly into his window.
It was already winter, so Su Jinyao remembered that she had plugged in the window before going to bed.
But when she heard the lattice of the window ring, she looked over and saw that it had been pushed open.
The moonlight reflected the color of the snow, and a (shēn) shape could be seen jumping in with a "whoosh", then closing the window with his hand back, raising his feet and landing in front of the (chuáng) in a few steps.
There is no need to look, just with that faint breath, Su Jinyao knows that it is Gu Xuebin.
"How are you? Aren't you being soft (jìn) and watched? Su Jinyao sat up at once and looked at Gu Xuebin with a puzzled expression.
"If I don't come to pick you up, aren't you going to be abducted by that guy Gu Shangqing?" Gu Xuebin's face was cold, and he looked angry.
Su Jinyao smiled and said, "Don't you know? I call Gu Shangqing 'brother'. ”
"Is he really your brother?" Gu Xuebin said, rubbing his hands, and then stepped on his leg (chuáng).
Su Jinyao moved inside, only to find that he (shēn) was wearing a single shirt and did not wear a cotton robe outside. And his neckline was already covered with a thin layer of hoarfrost.
Su Jinyao hurriedly grabbed Gu Xuebin's hand and found that his ten fingers were cold, and his joints were a little stiff. He immediately asked, "You ran here from the capital and didn't wear a cotton robe?" ”
"Or else? I got dressed up and told the guard at the door that I was here with you. Gu Xuebin glared at Su Jinyao, but withdrew the hand she was holding.
Su Jinyao hurriedly held it again, pulled the quilt over, draped it over Gu Xuebin, and said, "Are you ...... Pretend to wake up at night and run out? ”
"Hmph." Gu Xuebin glanced at Su Jinyao childishly, withdrew his hand from Su Jinyao's hand again, and said, "It's cold, you don't need to cover it." I'll warm up with the quilt for a while. ”
"And when are you going back? You just said you were here to pick me up? "Su Jinyao is really distressed, I didn't expect this guy to be so reckless.
However, he even dared to jump in the cold pool for himself, let alone walk here at night in a single dress.
"I'm not going back today. Tomorrow morning, I'll take you back with me. I have to walk out of your house in a big way so that I can be a husband and wife. After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he rubbed his hands vigorously, and then raised his good-looking phoenix eyes to stare at Su Jinyao.
When Su Jinyao heard this, she was a little panicked by him, and she always felt awkward, and said, "Look at what I'm doing." You say husband and wife? Who admits it. ”
The root of becoming the crown princess
Gu Xuebin rubbed his hands to warm up the temperature of his hands, squinted at Su Jinyao and smiled, suddenly leaned over, and said in a low and gentle voice: "No one needs to admit it, I said it, it's good to be honest." (#…… )”
Su Jinyao's face turned red, even if she raised her knife to kill people without blinking, but she didn't know why, once she heard Gu Xuebin's teasing, the little rabbit jumped in her heart.
Gu Xuebin "exhaled", blew in Su Jinyao's ear, and said, "Jinyao, let me ask you, isn't it an inconvenient time now?" ”
"You, who did you hear this from?" Su Jinyao raised her hand and pushed Gu Xuebin, pulled back the quilt he was wearing and wrapped it around herself, and said, "I've been running around for a day, and I'm tired." ”
"I've been running for most of the night, and I'm even more tired." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he shoved his hand into his own neck, then turned (shēn) and fell down, leaned on Su Jinyao's shoulder, and said, "Sleep for a while, and do it for a while." ”
Su Jinyao shrugged her shoulders and asked, "Don't be serious." Tell me, did you ask me to come over because during the National Day ceremony, you were going to announce your marriage? ”
"My Jinyao is so smart, of course she's right." Gu Xuebin's hand was still stuffed into his neck, but he leaned towards Su Jinyao again, and said next to her: "I also heard that the princesses of Tianze Kingdom have come here with dowries. ”
Su Jinyao snorted and said, "So, do you want to come and cook raw rice into mature rice?" You haven't thought about it, your question now is not whether you can marry me, but how many. ”
With Gu Xuebin's prince (shēn), if he insisted on marrying Su Jinyao, then the emperor and the empress dowager would not be too reluctant to his (xìng) son, and it would be a big deal to have one more harem.
But Su Jinyao knew very well in her heart that what she wanted was a unique husband, a deep (qíng) person for a lifetime. If Gu Xuebin is just trying to keep himself on the side (shēn), then there is no need.
In other words, if the princess of Tianze Kingdom could not be completely ruled out, Su Jinyao would rather not cook this meal than stay on Gu Xuebin's side (shēn) by relying on such a relationship.
It's just that after Su Jinyao finished speaking, Gu Xuebin didn't move for a long time.
Su Jinyao was surprised, turned her head and saw that Gu Xuebin's hand was still in his own neck, a pair of phoenix eyes stared at Su Jinyao, and her thin lips were also pursed.
Su Jinyao tilted her head, turned (shēn) and said, "Why are you putting your hands in your neck?" ”
"Warm up, I'll strangle you." Gu Xuebin deliberately gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
"You're going to strangle me, and you still need to be warm?" Su Jinyao stretched out her hand and pulled out Gu Xuebin's big hand, held it in her hand, and said, "Che, I'm not joking with you. I'll tell you now, the matter of the princess of Tianze Kingdom (qíng) is up to me to solve. ”
"You solve?" Gu Xuebin looked puzzled, then suddenly raised his voice and said, "Jin Yao, can you trust me once?" As long as I want you, I will never touch another woman in this life and this life. So you should rest assured that I will solve this matter. ”
After speaking, Gu Xuebin pulled his hand back from Su Jinyao's hand, and turned (shēn) to go down (chuáng).
Su Jinyao was stunned and asked him, "Why are you going?" ”
"Don't do your business." Gu Xuebin walked quickly to the window, supported the window lattice with one hand, and then turned around and said: "I think about it, unless you are married to Mingmei and welcome you into the door and let you really become my crown princess, you will believe me." Otherwise, even if I came here, you would think that I just want to take advantage of you. ”
"That's not what I meant." Su Jinyao knew that Gu Xuebin had misunderstood, so she also jumped up from (chuáng), chased after him and grabbed him, and said, "I want to tell you that I have already robbed the dowry of the princess of Tianzeguo today." ”
"What?" Gu Xuebin was stunned for a moment, then leaned down (shēn) and hugged Su Jinyao, and said, "Go back and say, 下 (chuáng) doesn't wear shoes." ”
As he spoke, he carried Su Jinyao back to (chuáng) and put it away, while he himself squatted beside (chuáng) and covered Su Jinyao's feet with both hands.
This floor is really cold, Su Jinyao has only run a few steps, and the soles of her feet are cold. was covered by Gu Xuebin's big hand that had just warmed up, and it was still (tǐng) comfortable.
Su Jinyao didn't struggle, and said, "I just wanted to say that I can solve the matter of the princess of Tianze Kingdom (qíng) by myself." I can't hide behind your (shēn) in everything, waiting for you to fight for me a piece of paper. I'm going to take the initiative into my own hands. ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao moved her toes, deliberately teased Gu Xuebin's palm with her toes, and said, "I have already planned with Gu Shangqing, before the National Day ceremony, it will be adopted by the imperial court." From now on, I will be a member of the Gu family. ”
Gu Xuebin was surprised: "Gu family? Do you really want to take refuge in the Gu family like Xiaocheng'er? ”
"It's not a refuge." Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "Are you stupid in the Prince's Mansion?" Didn't even know such secret news? My father is the three generals of the Gu family who died in battle. ”
Su Jinyao's (shēn) world has not been officially made public, so except for her and Gu Shangqing, only a few people in the Gu family should know.
When Gu Xuebin heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and only said after a while: "So, the Gu family has been asking about the news of our family's orphans because ...... Are you the daughter of the Gu family? ”
Su Jinyao asked rhetorically, "Did the Gu family ask you about my news?" ”
Gu Xuebin said: "No, I didn't tell them that you are the orphan of the Fang family. However, it is said that you are very similar to your mother-in-law Fang Yingniang, I think those old people will understand after seeing you. ”
Su Jinyao does look very similar to Fang Yingniang, but the two people's (xìng) personalities are completely different, so they feel like two completely different people. If you are not very familiar with Fang Yingniang, you can't get in touch.
Su Jinyao said: "So, I now have the foundation to become your crown princess, so you don't need to make this decision." It's not good for you. ”
Gu Xuebin stuffed Su Jinyao's feet back into the quilt, sat down again (chuáng), hugged Su Jinyao into his arms with both hands, and said softly:
