Chapter 10: Reading the Letter (2nd Update)
Since An Yining sent her a letter and said that Gu Qingyan and Wang Anzhi were seriously injured, she replied, "Auntie knows." After that, An Yining didn't write again, probably because Gu Qingyan knew about it and stopped him.
For nearly two months, she did not communicate with Gu Qingyan, and he did not write again.
She didn't know what had happened to Gu Qingyan recently, and she didn't let people deliberately investigate, she lived like this day by day. But time did not make her forget, but thought of him several times a day.
Approximately, this person has been in her heart for a long time, or rather, it is too unforgettable.
But even then, she didn't know how to continue.
She didn't lie to her grandfather, she was really thinking about her, about Gu Qingyan, how to continue on the next road.
I can't clear it, I can't give it up, I can't put it down, but I don't have the strength to pick it up.
She never thought that there would be anything that would make her difficult to choose, she was just a neat and neat character, but she only overturned on Gu Qingyan and became indecisive, so she couldn't do it at all.
"Cousin, there's one thing I want to tell you." Chu Xiyun has been holding back for more than ten days, and she is about to go crazy, and now that she finally sees An Huajin, she naturally wants to tell her.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Chu Xiyun scratched her head and waved her hand to the two palace maids in the room, "You guys go and rest!" I don't need you to serve here, I'll whisper something to my cousin. ”
The palace maid should have gone down immediately.
After only Chu Xiyun and An Huajin were left in the room, Chu Xiyun silently took out a letter from her arms and handed it to An Huajin, her eyes were red, "Cousin, take a look!" ”
An Huajin took the letterhead strangely, opened it, his face suddenly sank, and he raised his eyes to look at Chu Xiyun, "Who gave you this letter?" ”
Chu Xiyun was about to cry, hugged An Huajin's arm, and remembered that day, her heart was still trembling, "Cousin, is what this letter says true?" Do you know about this? ”
An Huajin's voice was sharp, "Let me ask you, who gave you this letter?" ”
Chu Xiyun said with a white face, "It's the Jiangzhou royal family." ”
"Huh?"
"The person in charge of the Jiangzhou Wang family is not a good thing." Chu Xiyun became angry and scolded angrily, "When my grandfather and I were passing through Jiangzhou, we were stopped by the Jiangzhou Wang family, and my grandfather was left to live for a day, and before leaving, I gave my grandfather a very rare century-old ginseng, which was the hundred-year-old ginseng that held this letter, fortunately I saw it, but my grandfather didn't see it, so I hid it and hid it all ......the way."
An Huajin understood, his face was cold, "So, you have been sick since you left Jiangzhou, is it because of this letter?" ”
Chu Xiyun nodded, "I also got a little cold......
"What about the ginseng?"
"It's supposed to be put away by my grandfather."
An Huajin clenched his letterhead, and his voice was cold, "Jiangzhou Wang family, what a Jiangzhou Wang family!" ”
She worked hard to hide it from her grandfather, if it weren't for Chu Xiyun to come to Nanyang, wouldn't it make a Jiangzhou Wang family a bad thing? She couldn't accept it when she learned the inside story back then, let alone someone his grandfather's age?
Does the Jiangzhou Wang family want his grandfather's life?
In general, An Huajin's face was too scary, Chu Xiyun shook her arm, and her voice trembled, "Cousin? ”
An Huajin took a deep breath, eased his complexion, and patted Chu Xiyun's head, "Good job." ”
This cousin of hers, she used to be arrogant and unreasonable, she was too lazy to pay attention to her, but then after her temperament changed, she became cute, and now, she really did a smart and sensible thing.
If she had given this letter to her grandfather at that time, his grandfather would probably not have survived to come back to Nanyang and would have fallen ill. How can she tell her about her marriage now?
"Is this true?" Although Chu Xiyun didn't like her father either, she still didn't want his father to be the one who calculated his grandfather's family back then.
"Yes, it's true."
Chu Xiyun suddenly felt disappointed and very sad, covered her face and cried.
An Huajin was silent for a while, let her cry for a while, and said lightly, "What are you crying about?" Isn't it you who made the mistake? It's true that he is your father, but he is also the father of many people, born in the royal family, why do you have so many feelings? How did your aunt teach you since you were a child? Didn't learn to be ruthless and ruthless? ”
Chu Xiyun cried a little quieter, "I'm just ...... It's just uncomfortable. ”
When she was a child, when she was just a few years old, she saw her eldest cousin, such a teenager, she was a bright pearl everywhere she went, her brother liked her very much, she also liked it, and the eldest cousin also carried her on his shoulders and took her out of the palace to play.
Although the memory is too long, she can remember not many things about her eldest cousin, but in any case, in her memory, the shadow of that young man cannot be erased.
When she was young, she cried for a few days after hearing that her eldest cousin had died on the battlefield.
Unexpectedly, he was killed by his father and Zhang Zaifu.
The letter said that His Majesty and Zhang Zaifu joined forces to plot to settle down the family, bought off the An family's in-law Xu Jing, and leaked the deployment map and defense map to the enemy country, which led to the end of the battle of Yuxueling, and the father and son of the An family were all killed on the battlefield. The little county lord already knows about this, if the old prince doesn't believe it, go back to Nanyang to greet the little county lord.
Such a short letter, a thin piece of paper, who knows that this shocking secret is told.
An Huajin gently patted Chu Xiyun's face and softened his voice, "Don't cry, keep crying, you'll become a little flower cat, grandpa still thinks I'll bully you when I meet." Wash your face and eat for a while. ”
"Are you going to eat with your grandfather?" Chu Xiyun wiped her tears and asked.
"Don't go, it's too cold at night, don't toss, let people bring the food." An Huajin stood up, "Just eat in your house, I'll eat with you." ”
Chu Xiyun nodded and obediently went down to wash her face.
She held back for many days, but now she finally unloaded this matter, and after giving the letter to An Huajin, she cried a lot, and she was much better.
Meals were delivered from the kitchen, and the two cousins were talking while eating.
Chu Xiyun told An Huajin what happened in Beijing, for example, after the palace banquet, her mother was locked up in Fengqi Palace, her brother was locked up in the Seven Princes' Mansion, she obediently learned the rules in the palace with her tail between her legs, and she couldn't go out of her own residence, and later her brother Wufeng Mountain made a meritorious contribution to the rebellion, and the situation was reversed, the queen mother went out of Fengqi Palace, her brother also re-entered the court, and she was also free, etc.
Speaking of Chu Lan again, she scolded Chu Lan for deserving it, and said that Concubine Liang, saying that after that woman went to Mobei, there was no news, I don't know if she was detained by the Zhenbei Mansion or what?
Speaking of Gu Qingyan again, she asked An Huajin what kind of illness he had, and she was curious.
An Huajin explained her confusion, "I fought with Wang Anzhi and moved my sword, and both of them were seriously injured. ”
Chu Xiyun: "......"
She suddenly realized, "No wonder Wang Anzhi has been sick for so long, Jingzhong has speculated, saying that they are fighting in the ring, and the Wang family and the Gu family are going to compete for the number one family in the world, although they are sick, who knows what to do in secret." ”
"I originally believed the rumors, but when I left Beijing, I saw Master Gu, he was too much like a long-term illness and had just recovered from a long illness, so I believed that his illness was real, he was really sick."
An Huajin nodded, there was nothing to say, so he simply didn't speak.
Chu Xiyun keenly caught her silence, and cautiously whispered tentatively, "Cousin, you and Master Gu, are you okay?" ”
An Huajin smiled, "What do you think can happen?" ”
Chu Xiyun couldn't think of it, "On the way, my grandfather said that I had discussed it with Old Man Gu, and when I returned to Nanyang, I planned to urge you to arrange a big wedding with Master Gu, so that you could live in Nanyang for half a year and the capital for half a year, and make a compromise." ”
"They'd like to." An Huajin snorted lightly, "I don't have this plan. ”
Chu Xiyun held her chin, "Lord Gu is very good, cousin, aren't you afraid that you will be separated for too long, and he will be taken away by the little goblin in the capital?"
An Huajin smiled, "After so many years, has he been hooked away by the goblins in the capital?" ”
Chu Xiyun: "...... Not. ”
She used to be the goblin who was hooked.
She obediently shut her mouth.
After eating, An Huajin stood up and said to Chu Xiyun, "You rest early, when you come here, you are home, if there is anything, let the palace maid call Uncle Sun or Amber." I went to the study. ”
Chu Xiyun nodded, "Nanyang Palace's Mansion is much more comfortable than in the palace, I like the red plums in this courtyard in your courtyard, like a sea of clouds, it's so beautiful." In the future, if I marry Nanyang, I also want such a yard. ”
"Don't be shy, the little girl's family thinks about getting married every day." An Hua Jin is funny.
Chu Xiyun blushed and squirmed, "I just talk about it occasionally, and I don't think about it all day long." ”
She said, straightening up, "It's okay to plan for your future, cousin, aren't you still being urged to marry by your grandfather?" ”
An Huajin smiled, "Okay, okay, you're right, I'm leaving, you go to bed early." ”
Chu Xiyun waved his hand.
An Huajin went out of Chu Xiyun's room, went to his room to find a cloak and put it on, went out of the courtyard, and went to the study.
