Chapter 38: Gifts

Time is like water, and in the blink of an eye, it is Chinese New Year's Eve.

And Gu Hening has already returned home on vacation.

"Sister."

In the afternoon of this day, Gu Wushuang was about to leave after seeing Xiao Nian, but he met Gu Hening when he left the main courtyard.

"Sister is going back to China?"

Gu Hening deliberately waited outside the second gate, and when he saw Gu Wushuang finally coming out, he couldn't help but hurriedly greet him, and said, "Some time ago, I heard from the people in the academy that the second son of the Guogong Mansion had caused trouble? ”

"Huh?" Gu Wushuang unconsciously paused when he heard this, and then glanced at Gu Hening with a little puzzlement.

"I also overheard someone mention it, but because it is related to Sister A, I paid special attention to it."

Gu Hening understood, and explained in detail directly: "The second son of the Xu family is said to have offended people, and it is the little prince of the Pingjun Mansion who has offended. ”

"Impossible!"

Gu Wushuang subconsciously retorted when he heard this: "If it is really him, he definitely has ten thousand ways to make him worse than death, but he definitely doesn't choose this now!" ”

"Sister believes in him like this?"

Gu Hening was a little surprised, could it be that rumor true?

"I know what you're thinking, but I'm not because of that."

Gu Wushuang shook his head, unconsciously glanced in the direction of the south of the city, and said, "You should know that you can't just look at the surface of everything. ”

"Sister means ......"

"Nothing." Gu Wushuang shook his head again, followed by another pause, turned around and stared at Gu Hening's eyes seriously, and said seriously: "It is true that someone is targeting the Xu family, but this person will definitely not be Helian Yan." ”

"I know." Gu Hening nodded seriously, and then spoke again in Gu Wushuang's puzzled eyes, and said, "The one in the Xu family did offend the prince of Pingjun, but the one who really wanted to fix him was the second son of the Marquis of Wuling?" ”

"Marquis Wuling's Mansion?"

The more Gu Wushuang listened, the more confused he felt: "Wei family? They're not always alone, how can they ......?"

"The Marquis of Wuling wants to marry the Prince of Pingjun, so the second son of Wei of the Marquis of Wuling wants to take the opportunity to show favor to the prince of Pingjun." Gu Hening said.

"Impossible."

Gu Wushuang couldn't help but shake his head again when he heard this: "If it was really the second son of Wei who did it, then he could directly target Xu Kangan alone, so why did he have to drag the entire Guogong Mansion into the water together?" ”

Even though this Guogong Mansion has existed in name only, the Xu family is not only the Jingguo Mansion.

"Also, I've inquired, this matter has nothing to do with our clan......"

"It's not that simple."

Gu Hening was helpless, and before Gu Wushuang finished speaking, he couldn't help but intercept his words again, and said, "The clan will be involved, and it is also because of Sister A." ”

It turned out that the Marquis of Wuling Mansion had always been alone, and now he suddenly wanted to marry the Pingjun Palace, and the reason was simply that the eldest lady of the Wuling Marquis Mansion fell in love with Helian Yan of the Pingjun Palace.

And Helian Yan is the most amorous, and there are countless beauties in the house, but he changed his personality for the sake of a Gu Wushuang.

Although he was still romantic, he no longer saw the woman next to him, and even directly rejected the marriage of the Marquis of Wuling because of this.

It was precisely because of this that the Marquis of Wuling wanted to impress Helian Yan on the one hand, and on the other hand, the resentment of Helian Yan's rejection was calculated on Gu Wushuang's head.

"As for the steward that Sister said about it, it was bought by that Miss Wei early in the morning."

"So...... Is this actually coming at me? ”

"Not quite."

Gu Hening shook his head, and unconsciously looked at Gu Wushuang again, and then continued: "The Wei family wants to return to the court. ”

The Wei family has gradually faded out of the government and the opposition since the time of the first emperor, and now it has been dormant for more than ten years, which coincides with the accession of the new emperor......

"The elder of the pavilion has passed away, and if the Wei family wants him to leave a vacancy in the cabinet, he will inevitably confront the entire Xu family, so naturally he doesn't care if he will be an enemy of the Guogong Mansion."

It is said that it is not a particularly secret matter, but compared to the Wei family, the Gu family has already broken its foundation, and Gu Wushuang is unambitious, so he has never known the direction of the wind in these courts.

"The eldest daughter of the Duke of Wei seems to be the wife of the Marquis of Wuling?"

Gu Wushuang frowned, if this was the case, then all this seemed to make sense.

The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wuling was born by the Marquis of Wuling, so the Duke of Wei that Xu Chengyu found was also involved in it, so it is reasonable.

It's still a little unclear to take care of Wushuang, if it's really for the court, then why haven't I heard Xu Huaixin mention it before, and even Xu Chengyu has never mentioned it?

"I will deal with this matter, if you are fine, I will go and see Xiao Nian'er later."

After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Wushuang simply didn't think about it anymore, and just explained again and left the Gu Mansion directly.

According to the original plan, Gu Wushuang had lunch in the Gu Mansion, and then went back to Xu's house directly by carriage, and then accompanied the Ning family to have dinner, and this New Year's Festival was over.

What Gu Wushuang didn't expect was that when she came back from the main courtyard, she was about to enter the door, but suddenly found that there was suddenly another person in the room.

"What? How happy to see me? ”

Yilan Temple.

Helian Yan sat indoors in a dignified manner, raised his eyes and saw Gu Wushuang coming in, and couldn't help but immediately raise the corners of his lips.

"Why are you here?"

Gu Wushuang was stunned, and when he came back to his senses, he subconsciously looked out again.

"Don't look at it."

Seeing this, Helian Yan couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed straight: "Your maid has more eyesight than you. ”

It turned out to be a pearl, and when he entered the courtyard gate, he saw that there was someone inside, and then after seeing that it was Helian Yan, without waiting for Gu Wushuang to react, he had already directly pulled Coral and Xu Mengxian to bypass from the side.

"You don't have a face, I still want it!"

Gu Wushuang's face instantly darkened when he heard this.

What is this?

Cheating?

Adultery?

"What do you think?"

Seeing that Gu Wushuang's face was getting heavier and darker, and getting more and more strange, Helian Yan couldn't help but poke her forehead directly, and then without waiting for Gu Wushuang to react, he directly stuffed the brocade box that he had already prepared in his hand.

"I know you threw away everything I sent before, but you can't lose this!"

After that, regardless of whether Gu Wushuang agreed or not, Helian Yan once again bent his fingers and stroked Gu Wushuang's forehead, only about to touch it, but suddenly stopped.

Then, I saw him staring at Gu Wushuang fixedly for a long time, and finally chuckled, and then turned around and retreated.

And as soon as he stepped out of the threshold, fireworks lit outside.

The fireworks in the sky bloomed instantly, and between the obvious extinguishment, Gu Wushuang seemed to see Helian Yan pause for a moment, and then turned around and looked at her and said something......

"What did you say?"

It was only deafening outside, and Gu Wushuang didn't hear what he said clearly......
