Chapter 185: Along the way
Seeing that he couldn't even go home, and it was impossible to go out to this Gu Mansion, Chi Yue couldn't help but feel distressed.
She tossed the peanuts in the gazebo into the water one by one, venting the emotions that poured out of her chest.
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you investigate this matter." Gu Han suddenly appeared beside her and swore an oath.
Chi Yue raised her eyes to look at him, stunned for a moment, and then said, "I want to investigate myself and find out the person who framed me personally, is it okay?" ”
Gu Han didn't expect Chi Yue to have this thought, and said meaningfully: "Do you want to go to the capital?" ”
Chi Yue nodded vigorously.
"But if you can enter the capital, how can you enter the well-defended palace?" Gu Han couldn't help but remind.
With her insignificant people's daughter, the suspects who are being searched around can get in?
Chi Yue smiled unexpectedly and looked at Gu Han thoughtfully, "Isn't there still you?" ”
Looking at Chi Yue's playful expression, Gu Han suddenly realized, and couldn't help but smile.
This little thing is decisive at the moment, brave and strategic, and even he is a little self-admired.
After some discussion, Chi Yue asked Gu Han to send someone to Wuxiang Village quietly to inform Zhou, saying that she was safe and sound, so that she could go on the road with peace of mind.
Then, Chi Yue proposed to disguise herself as a man and pretend to be a servant serving tea by Gu Han's side. Although Gu Han felt that he had wronged Chi Yue in this way, he had to follow her wish now that only this plan could be done.
And he couldn't help but have a small calculation in his heart.
Since she will be his little servant in the days to come, she will serve him day and night. Being able to get along with her in the morning and twilight, his heart couldn't help but be warm, and he just wanted to spend time with her every day.
In time, are you afraid that she won't be able to think about herself......
Chi Yue didn't know what the people around her were having, she just wanted to rush to the capital as soon as possible, verify the facts on the spot, and find evidence to clear her name.
Thinking that her current reputation has been ruined in the capital and Baihua County, and the Chi family workshop, which finally started the brand, is also going to fall short, she is so angry that her liver hurts, and she has the urge to beat people.
In order not to attract the attention of others to Gu Han's departure, they chose to set off on a dark and windy night, and their actions were absolutely secretive, and no one except the silhouette and a few cronies knew about it.
The next day, the people in the Gu Mansion came to the door to preach that King Rong was feeling a little unwell and didn't want to go out, but just wanted to recuperate at home, so these people had to go away.
Even Han Qi was kept in the dark, always thinking that Gu Han was still hiding and refusing to see her.
The more Gu Han avoided it so much, the more determined she became, her perseverance could finally be exchanged for his touch, sooner or later, he would open his heart to her and allow her to get closer.
Finally there will be that day.
The day before yesterday, when I heard that Chi Yue was taken to the county government for interrogation by Wen Xing and was about to be taken to prison, she was rescued halfway, and she was so angry that she smashed a whole set of valuable exquisite tea sets on the spot.
Although she decided that it would not be Gu Han who rescued Chi Yue, after all, she asked Li Qingqing to frame her, if she was told to run out and find evidence to come back to sue them, how would she deal with it?
If her scheming made Gu Han know, then could she wait until the day when she won his favor and asked him to accommodate herself?
She made up her mind to find Chi Yue as soon as possible and put her away from future troubles!
Therefore, inside and outside the city of Baihua County, not only were the officials sent by Wenxing searching for this "fugitive" in all directions, but there was also another group of people, who were out of nowhere, secretly visiting, and even the people in the yamen were not aware of it.
Along the way, after a bumpy half a day, Gu Han asked the carriage to stop and rest at the inn halfway.
He thoughtfully helped Chi Yue get off the horse, was pinned away by Chi Yue, and whispered: "Be careful that there are eyes and ears next to you." You don't want to think about it, how can there be a cousin who helps me such an insignificant little guy? The designation will be punctured. ”
Gu Han had no choice but to go first, letting Chi Yue follow behind him, and his hands behind his back only felt very itchy.
When he came to the inn, Gu Han sat at the same table with Chi Yue, and asked for a guest room to eat in it.
Chi Yue knew that his family was wealthy, and he was willing to spend so much for a moment of rest, and he didn't say anything, and he was not polite, and when the person who delivered the food left, he was invited to sit down to the lake to eat and drink, just to fill his stomach.
The silhouette looked at the corner of the mouth twitching from the side.
I don't know what his master likes about this girl. Looking at this gobbling up food, how can there be all the gentleness and elegance and caution of Miss Qianjin? Is it appropriate for a woman's family to eat so much in front of a man?
After one last look, he also went out, and went downstairs to ask for wine and food, and to dine with the coachman.
Seeing that nearly half of the food on the table was about to be cleaned up by himself, but the man opposite didn't put down his chopsticks, Chi Yue stopped what he was doing, puffed out his cheeks and asked, "Why don't you eat?" Is it because the food here is not to your liking? ”
Gu Han smiled awkwardly, shook his head and said, "No, I'm just fascinated by your eating appearance, I'll eat it now." ”
He couldn't help but laugh and picked up his chopsticks.
Chi Yue's face was full of black lines, was he praising her or making fun of her?
Stroking her somewhat bulging belly, Chi Yue put down her chopsticks embarrassedly and said, "I'm full, go rest for a while, you use it slowly." Then he went to the bed behind the screen, and lay on it, ready to rest for a while.
As a modern person, Chi Yue doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with doing this. But Gu Han, who was on the other side of the screen, was a little upset.
A girl's family dares to run to bed and sleep when she is alone with a man?
Isn't she afraid that he will take advantage of the situation......
shook his head slightly, shaking off the thoughts that he shouldn't have, but those phoenix eyes still looked at the screen from time to time, and even forgot the action of holding vegetables in his hands.
Waiting for 10,000 meals, the little maid waiting on the side stepped forward to clean up for him, and he waved his hand, and specially "booed", for fear of disturbing Chi Yue, who was probably asleep.
"Go out, and you will not come in without the king's command." Gu Han lowered his voice and said.
The servant went out in agreement, and closed the door quite carefully.
Gu Han moved his footsteps, quietly turned the screen, and when he saw Chi Yue's strange appearance, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This woman, who sleeps like a man, only needs to snore.
Thinking that she had been running around all night and had never slept well during the journey, I suddenly felt distressed.
Walking over and sitting beside her, Chi Yue unexpectedly rolled over and turned into curled up and fell asleep. A face happened to be on the back of his hand, blowing like an orchid, making his already itchy hand more and more ready to move.
He couldn't help but make a move, brushed the hair in front of her forehead, looked at her smooth forehead, and couldn't help but have the urge to kiss.
He looked at her in a daze for a long time, but he didn't want to wake her up, but just pulled the soft quilt on the bed and gently covered her for her.
This is the first time in his life that he has covered a quilt for anyone, and even his mother has never received such an honor.
After the cover, he also thoughtfully tucked the corners of the quilt for her, for fear that she would be woken up by freezing and disturb her good dreams.
Looking at her slightly fluttering eyelashes, the ruddy corners of her mouth that seemed to be whispering, and every inch of her delicate and moist skin...... Looking at it, Gu Han also leaned on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.
I slept until the evening.
Silhouette and the others were waiting downstairs, showing self-evident and knowing expressions.
What good can this lonely man and widow do in the same room for so long? Haha, their master finally has an enlightened day, which is worth celebrating!
Chi Yue stretched her waist widely, her hand was warm, she quickly withdrew her hand, and turned her head to see Gu Han, who had just woken up.
The eyes were intertwined, and the air was filled with embarrassment, and a side smell.
"Why did you sleep here?" Chi Yue asked puzzledly, pointing to a small soft couch outside the screen that people leaned on, "I occupy this side, isn't there a small bed over there?" ”
Do you need to come over and share a bed with her? Chi Yue muttered in her heart. Look at him like a fool.
Gu Han smiled embarrassedly, not knowing what to say, he got up in a hurry and turned around to hide the panic in his chest.
"It's not early, we've had dinner, let's take advantage of the sparse crowds at night." Gu Han said and went out first.
Chi Yue raised her eyebrows, but she didn't take the discomfort on Gu Han's face to heart, she just thought that he was just nervous, sitting at the table, holding chopsticks, and just waiting for the delicious dinner to come up.
After dinner, I went downstairs, and in the cold night, Chi Yue was deeply frightened by the silhouette, only to feel that the silhouette's too respectful attitude, and the overflowing smile was very strange, and I didn't know what was hidden in the eyes that were quite meaningful.
The same was true of several other attendants who followed Gu Han's side.
These people are probably nervous, right? Chi Yue wondered and got into the carriage.
Gu Han asked for two padded jackets, but he didn't wear them, one was handed to Chi Yue to wrap, and the other was asked for her to cover her legs, as if she was afraid that she would freeze to a hair.
Seeing that Gu Han refused to put it on, Chi Yue was no longer polite, so she simply put her legs across the soft seat that Gu Han asked to spread, wrapped herself tightly, wrapped it like a dumpling, chatted with Gu Han for a few words, and fell asleep again unconsciously.
Perhaps unwilling to face the cruel reality of losing business and staying away from his family, the day when the truth will be revealed in the future is far away, Chi Yue was discouraged, and only thought about sleeping, and slept until the next morning, when the morning sun was rising.
Gu Han asked her not to sleep during the day, and wait until the night to have a good rest in the inn, Chi Yue nodded and agreed.
