Chapter XVIII
"This is imperial power, and it is not easy for Your Majesty."
Gu Qingyan picked up the teapot on the table and poured a hot cup of tea for An Huajin to end the topic.
An Huajin vented all her anger and strength in an instant, she is not a three-year-old child, she doesn't know the power of the country, the imperial aunt was not as short as her grandfather and the eldest prince, and even His Majesty is said to have been sick for a month.
She picked up the teacup, held it in her hand, and took a sip slowly, disgusted, "This tea is so hot." ”
Gu Qingyan looked at her, the little girl was smart and thorough, she was thorough at all, and in front of the big right and wrong, there was anger but no resentment. understands that An Jia is a loyal minister and a good general, so he should do what a loyal minister and a good general should do, even if the loyal soul is buried, she is the only one left in the door.
His eyes were gentle, "This water is put in the kettle before going out, and it will be cool before drinking." ”
"I'm a drinker."
Gu Qingyan smiled, "I have to drink, I don't listen to persuasion, but I still dislike it, it's so difficult to wait." ”
An Huajin snorted, drank a bowl of hot tea, pushed the cup, and asked, "What's going on with "Beauty Picture"?" Don't tell me you really like me? ”
She and Gu Qingyan fell in love with her at first sight three years ago, yesterday was the second time they met, and she didn't believe that Gu Qingyan could look down on her. If you look at her, you won't almost kill her, it's irrational to look at a person, where is she willing to let her suffer half a point?
Treating others with herself, just like she did to Gu Qingyan, shouting and killing in her mouth, but she couldn't do anything when she saw him.
Gu Qingyan lowered her head, as if she was careful about her words, and after a while, she raised her head and looked at her with a light smile, "With the hearts of His Majesty An and the eldest princess, the two of us, one of us must have a crush on the other, so that this marriage contract can make them feel promising." ”
An Huajin nodded, "Seventh cousin is in the An family's old mansion, since you are going to visit the An family's old mansion, just continue to go!" It just so happened that you told him that I don't like to learn any boudoir etiquette, even if I marry into your Gu family, I don't learn it, so he will die, leave me alone. ”
Since he said that accepting his jade pendant could instruct him to do things, it was just right that Chu Yan handed it over to him.
With that, she lifted the curtain and turned to get out of the carriage.
Gu Qingyan stretched out her hand to pull, but didn't pull it, picked up the curtain and saw that she had ridden on her horse in a blink of an eye, and asked her, "Where are you going?" ”
"Imperial Palace, I haven't been to see Your Majesty and Imperial Aunt since I came to Beijing." An Huajin dropped a sentence, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and walked towards the palace.
Gu Qingyan watched her ride away like the wind, fresh clothes and angry horses, different from all the boudoir women in Beijing, bright and vivid, bright and flying, he slowly lowered the curtain, rubbed his forehead, and smiled dumbly.
This instructed him to do things so quickly!
Zhuying followed An Huajin to the Gu family, not daring to follow too close, the little county lord has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is very keen, afraid that she will find out. He saw Gu Qingyan coming out of Gu's house from a distance, and after saying a few words to An Huajin, An Huajin abandoned his horse and got into Gu Qingyan's carriage, and then the carriage walked out of a street, and An Huajin got out of the carriage again and rode to the palace.
Zhuying hesitated for a moment, but still didn't follow An Huajin again, but went back to the An family's old mansion to tell Chu Yan what he saw.
Chu Yan heard Zhu Ying's announcement and pondered slightly, "So, she really gets along well with Gu Qingyan?" ”
Zhu Ying nodded, "The little county lord and Gu Qigongzi didn't fight. ”
For An Huajin's temper, if he didn't fight with people, he got along very well.
After a while, the old housekeeper came to say, "Your Royal Highness, Gu Qigongzi is here, saying that he is here to send some rouge gouache to the little county lord, I heard that you are here, I want to see you, and I will say a few words for the little county lord." ”
Chu Yan nodded and stood up, "I'll go to the front hall to see him." ”
The old butler hurriedly led the way.
Gu Qingyan stepped into the An family's old mansion for the first time, comparing the hundreds of years of the Gu family's old house, brick by brick, they are extremely particular, and the one hundred and fifty years of the An family's old house is an empty shell. Although the house was very clean, it was empty, except for a few slaves.
The meeting room of the military general's house is also different from the meeting room of the civil official's house, with various weapons and military maps hanging on the wall.
There is only one painting that is not military, and the brushwork is immature, as if it was made by a child, painting a lonely goose on a cliff. No payment has been made.
Gu Qingyan stood in front of the "Cliff Lonely Goose Picture", stood with his hands folded, and looked at it for a long time.
When Chu Yan came in, he saw Gu Qingyan looking at the painting, and he also glanced at it, "It is said that this painting is from the hand of my little cousin, she was eight and a half years old when she painted this painting, half a year after the Battle of Yuxueling. ”
Gu Qingyan turned around and looked at Chu Yan, "She didn't enter Beijing before she was thirteen years old, and the paintings she made should be hung in the Nanyang Palace, why did she hang the old mansion of the An family?" ”
"It was my grandfather who brought it back to the old house of the An family when he entered Beijing, and my grandfather said that this was the treasure of the town's house." Chu Yan sat down, "It is difficult for a young child to be clumsy, but my grandfather cherishes this painting very much. The painting will exist for as many years as it lasts. ”
"Although this brushwork is immature and a little clumsy, the artistic conception is indeed a first-class masterpiece." Gu Qingyan also sat down.
Chu Yan was noncommittal, picked up the teacup and took a sip, looking at Gu Qingyan, "What do you want to say for her?" ”
Gu Qingyan said softly, "She doesn't like to be taught the etiquette of the boudoir, so it's not good to have a fight with His Highness, let me talk to His Highness the Seventh for her, and let this matter be stopped!" ”
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, "You agree?" ”
"Why not?" Gu Qingyan smiled, "Women in the world, how similar they are, the only one An Huajin is different." Why did the Seventh Highness destroy her difference? What's more, with her temperament, she may not be able to break it. ”
Chu Yan was silent for a moment, "Can your Gu family tolerate her temper?" ”
Gu Qingyan smiled lightly, "If the person she marries is me, she will naturally be able to tolerate it." ”
Chu Yan raised his eyes and stared at him, "I don't understand what you say." ”
Gu Qingyan also picked up the teacup, took a sip, and explained it plainly, "Although the Gu family is the grandfather who has the final say, if she marries me, I have the final say on what she does." ”
Chu Yan's indifferent face finally had two emotions, "She doesn't seem to agree with this marriage, as long as she doesn't nod, even if her grandfather drags your marriage, he won't force her." ”
Gu Qingyan bowed his head, no one knew better than him how difficult it was to get An Huajin to nod.
Chu Yan looked at Gu Qingyan, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his usually dull face, "I'm quite surprised, women in the world, and some people who don't want to marry you, just rush to this, the little girl is really impressive, I thought that her virtue, facing you, is not exempt from vulgarity." ”
Gu Qingyan coughed lowly, "I offended her." ”
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, looked at Gu Qingyan carefully, and didn't ask him much why he offended An Huajin quietly, only took out the prescription from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Qingyan, "This is the prescription prescribed by Imperial Physician Chen, since you speak for her and don't let me take care of her, then you will take over this matter!" ”
Gu Qingyan took the prescription and looked at it twice, "This is?" ”
Chu Yan asked Imperial Physician Chen to ask An Huajin for a safe pulse, but he didn't expect to ask Gu Qingyan to tell Gu Qingyan that she had often had nightmares in the past two or three years, "You can ask Imperial Doctor Chen carefully, I think you have a way to make her drink medicine obediently and tell the truth, so as to cure the symptoms and cure them at all." ”
Gu Qingyan pondered for a moment after hearing this, and nodded, "Okay, I'll deal with this matter." ”
------Off topic------
How she is, I have the final say.
No, you don't count.
