Chapter 263: Escape
♂? ,,
Here Jin Se and a few people started to get busy again, only Gu Ruoxi, she was lying on the bed again, but this time, her butt hurt a little.
Heaven damn Xuanyuan Yan, this is obviously trying to ruin her reputation, this person is really bad!
Gu Ruoxi thought indignantly in her heart.
Soon, Mrs. Jinye Hou in the front yard got the news and hurried over, and when she saw Gu Ruoxi lying on the bed with a pale face, she suddenly became nervous: "Xi'er, how is it?" ”
"Mother! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he bullied me! As soon as Gu Ruoxi saw Mrs. Jinye Hou, she immediately said with watery eyes: "He almost ruined his daughter's name, mother, but he has to make decisions for his daughter!" ”
When Mrs. Kazuba heard this, she was immediately startled, and hurriedly asked, "What happened?" ”
Gu Ruoxi just sobbed and didn't speak.
Mrs. Jinye Hou suddenly turned her head: "Jinse, come!" ”
"Yes, ma'am!" Jin Se responded, and immediately told the story that had just happened.
After listening to this, Mrs. Jinye Hou frowned, she turned her head to look at Gu Ruoxi, and said: "Xi'er, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reached out to hug him in disregard of men and women's defense, this is his fault, but it is also out of concern, and I honestly told my mother, why did he let go of his hand and let him fall to the ground?" ”
It turned out that Jin Se and the others didn't see Gu Ruoxi's hands and feet in secret.
Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi glanced up at Mrs. Jinye Hou, and replied a little timidly: "Mother, at that time, my daughter asked him to let me down, but the prince didn't listen at all, and my daughter had no choice, so she had to take off the hairpin on her head and prick him lightly on the arm......"
“!” When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this, she was immediately shocked, and with a light prick, Xuanyuan Yan threw Gu Ruoxi out with a painful shake of her hand? It can be seen that this statement is false! She raised her slap and wanted to throw it in Gu Ruoxi's face.
That's the prince of the dynasty! It's incredibly expensive! Gu Ruoxi actually dared to use a hairpin to pierce someone's house, if the queen or the queen mother knew about it, would the Gu family still have a good life? How can this girl do something that doesn't have a long brain! At this moment, Mrs. Kazuba Hou was extremely angry.
When the slap was about to fall on Gu Ruoxi's face, Mrs. Jinye Hou saw that her daughter did not dodge or dodge, and her small face was stubborn. She was stunned, and a feeling of distress immediately surged in her heart, her Xi'er is still sick! She slowly withdrew her hand, sighed, and said, "Okay, I don't want the prince to hug me, the idea is good, but I can use a hairpin to stab him, this is not right." ”
"Mother, I know that the situation was urgent, and my daughter was indeed ill-conceived." Gu Ruoxi clearly saw the change in Mrs. Jinye Hou's expression, but she was not afraid: "However, the prince runs to our house when he has nothing to do, and he always does some unbelievable things, to be honest, my daughter is not scared today, no."
I would like to experience this feeling again in the future. ”
"So how?" Mrs. Kashiba asked involuntarily.
"Mother, you let out a rumor to the outside world, and refuse everyone to visit your daughter!" Gu Ruoxi said slowly: "In this way, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no reason to always wander around Luomeiju, if he wants to find it, he should be looking for his sister!" As she spoke, there was a hint of confusion in her expression.
Mrs. Jinye Hou didn't expect Gu Ruoxi to say such a thing, she was stunned for a moment, and said, "However, the whereabouts of the crown prince, that is not something we can stop." ”
"It's okay, he can go wherever he likes, as long as he doesn't run to Luomei Curie." Gu Ruoxi raised her eyebrows and said solemnly: "From today onwards, I will lock the door of Luomei Residence, and never allow the prince to step here!" ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Jinye Hou looked at her daughter's extremely determined demeanor, and knew in her heart that Xuanyuan Yan had completely provoked Gu Ruoxi today, otherwise, she would never be able to say such categorical words.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Kazuba Hou couldn't help but feel emotional, thinking that at the beginning, her youngest daughter was still a person who was submissive and timid all day long, but she didn't expect that in just a short period of time, she would become a diametrically opposed person! The degree of audacity made Mrs. Kazuba Hou herself smack.
"Okay, if you don't deal with the prince, you will quarrel when you meet, and it's okay not to meet." Mrs. Jinye Hou sighed.
"It's good for everyone." Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly and said.
Mrs. Kashiba sat for a moment and left.
"Miss, it's time to drink the medicine." As soon as Gu Ruoxi lay down on the couch, Jin Se came in with a medicine bowl.
As soon as she smelled the bitter smell of medicine, Gu Ruoxi frowned, but there was no way, now she was sick, and she had to drink this medicine. So she waved her hand and said to Jinse: "Put it there first, and I'll drink it myself when it's cold." ”
"Yes, miss." Jin Se answered, and immediately put down the medicine bowl on the low table next to him, and then retreated.
After a while, Jin Se came in to get the bowl, only to find that Gu Ruoxi had already drunk the bowl of medicine, she nodded with satisfaction, and took the bowl by herself without mentioning it.
After a few days, Gu Ruoxi gradually improved, and she was able to go down to the field and walk in the yard for a while, but at this time, she never mentioned going to play in the back garden of the Hou Mansion, and Jin Se and the others never mentioned it. Xuanyuan Yan did not run to the Hou Mansion during this time, and Luomei Curie was quiet for a while.
Guruoxi also had a very comfortable and simple month because of this. During this month, Mrs. Kazuba Hou never mentioned going to Huguo Temple to burn incense. Gu Yuetong came to visit her occasionally, but her eyes were extremely resentful: "Sister, it would be nice if we could get better soon, the two of us went to Huguo Temple to burn incense together, how good!" ”
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he was bitter in his heart, and he went to Huguo Temple
, she secretly obstructed in every way, but she didn't expect Gu Yuetong to be looking forward to it!
"Sister, don't worry." Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but smile bitterly and said.
Gu Yuetong ignored her, but took her hand with great interest and told the scene when the two sisters went to Huguo Temple to offer incense. At the end, she said with great interest: "Sister, you have to get better soon, Daddy has got the exact news, and my brother will come back in three days, and when the time comes, the three of us brothers and sisters will accompany our mother to Huguo Temple to burn incense!" ”
"Huh? Brother also goes? When Gu Ruoxi heard this, a trace of bitterness suddenly appeared on his face.
Gu Xiaoye also went, does that mean that she has no way to stop this trip? ◎
"Sister, why do you look unhappy?" Gu Yuetong saw Gu Ruoxi's expression, and immediately said in confusion.
Gu Ruoxi hurriedly shook her head: "Sister, I'm not happy, it's just that I'm worried that I'm not in good health and can't go with you when the time comes." As she spoke, a longing expression appeared on her face.
When Gu Yuetong saw it, the doubt in her heart disappeared suddenly, she took Gu Ruoxi's hand and said, "Then you have to take care of your illness and strive to go with us when the time comes, otherwise, I will be very sad!" ”
It seems that no matter whether Gu Ruoxi's health is good or not, this trip to Huguo Temple is imperative.
Thinking of this, Gu Ruoxi was a little decadent, she did not hesitate to make herself sick to stop Mrs. Jinye Hou from waiting, but in the end, she could only postpone this trip, but she could not cancel it completely.
Gu Yuetong chattered a lot, but Gu Ruoxi didn't listen to it, and her heart was immersed in the ice cellar. Gu Yuetong saw that she was not interested in talking, and left after chatting a few words, when she left, she took away the sunshine in the courtyard.
Gu Ruoxi sat on the bed, the expression on her face was very solemn. If this is a road that must be taken, then, from today onwards, she can't escape!
Three days later, Gu Xiaoye, the son of the Gu family, accompanied Prince Lian and returned to Beijing.
Prince Lian Bian was stationed at the border for five years, fighting against the Tartar Hulu, and his achievements were impressive
Beijing is actually the first big event of Daliang this summer.
The second big happy event is that the queen mother of the middle palace finally chose the daughter of Prime Minister Zhang as the princess for the king of Jing, and the matter has been decided.
Who is King Jing? Daliang is known to everyone, no one knows, the number one prince in the capital, no one dares to provoke the master, he is the queen mother, the queen mother gave birth to him at the age of thirty-five, and he is extremely favored, and now the emperor dotes on him in every way, so he has developed his perverse and ruthless temperament, and he will be repaid the most.
Despite this, King Jing, with his noble status and unparalleled handsomeness, is still the lover that everyone in the boudoir in Beijing desires. When this family affair surfaced, many famous daughters in Beijing were for this
And I was heartbroken, and I was extremely jealous of Zhang Yan, the daughter of Prime Minister Zhang Cheng, who was lucky to become Princess Jing.
All of a sudden, the people of the capital were talking about it, and their attention to this matter was even greater than that of Prince Lian and his large army, who had returned with his troops.
Of course, for the Jinye Hou Mansion, it is more important to return Gu Xiaoye, early in the morning, Gu Yuetong took Gu Ruoxi to Mrs. Jinye Hou's Jinghong Courtyard, pestering Mrs. Jinye Hou to go to the street to welcome the return of the eldest brother.
Gu Ruoxi's body has obviously improved a lot during this time, but Mrs. Jinye Hou is not allowed to go to such a lively thing, not only that, even Gu Yuetong was ordered by Mrs. Jinye Hou to stay in the house and not go out, Gu Ruoxi is better, but Gu Yuetong is full of unhappiness.
"Mother, the eldest brother has been away from home for half a year, and it is so easy to come back, how can you not let your daughter go out to meet him?" Gu Yuetong sat on the pineapple wood carved chair, shaking Mrs. Jinye Hou's arm while pouting: "Big brother came back, seeing that we didn't greet him, he will be unhappy in his heart!" ”
Mrs. Jinye Hou turned her head and looked at her eldest daughter with a gentle face, and said softly, "Didn't my mother tell me?" How can the girl's family go outside and show her face? Just stay in this amazing courtyard with my sister, and wait for my eldest brother to come back. If you really go out to greet you, then the big brother will be frightened! ”
Hearing this, Gu Yuetong lowered her head and finally said nothing, but the expression on her face was obviously not very happy.
Gu Ruoxi sat on the side, drinking tea slowly, and listening to the conversation between the two with a smile, without saying a word.
Thanks to the nightmare of that day, she didn't have a good impression of the upcoming return of the Marquis of Jinye, and there was no joy in her heart, and the smiles on her face were all for the sake of dealing with Mrs. Marquis of Kazuba and Gu Yuetong, fortunately, these two people were immersed in joy and didn't notice this at all. While Gu Ruoxi was relieved, there was also a trace of loneliness in her heart.
How neglected is this second lady of the ancient family?
No matter what, it's not a good thing to be in the limelight, with her current situation and what she has to do, no one pays attention to it.
Gu Ruoxi thought.
Gu Yuetong finally didn't screw Mrs. Jinye Hou, she stayed honestly in the Jinghong Courtyard, waiting for Gu Xiaoye's return with great suffering, she inadvertently looked up, but saw Gu Ruoxi's relaxed face, she immediately frowned.
"Sister, aren't you looking forward to the return of your eldest brother at all?"
Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly, and said: "Sister, don't be impatient, eldest brother he led the troops back to Beijing with Prince Lian, according to common sense, they won the battle, and the emperor in the palace needs to set up a banquet to entertain him, by the way, he also has to be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and the eldest brother is also a general who lifts a heavy weight in front of the prince, so as soon as he enters Kyoto, he must have followed Prince Lian into the palace to go to the banquet, and he can't come back until the banquet is over!" ”
When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this on the side, she also smiled slightly: "Xi."
What Er said is good, that's it, Hou Ye is also going to attend the banquet today. ”
"Huh? So? When Gu Yuetong heard this, a deep disappointment suddenly appeared on her face: "Then can't I wait for him to come back and have lunch together?" ”
Gu Ruoxi nodded with pity. Not only for lunch, but also for dinner.
Gu Yuetong sighed and said, "Forget it, let's eat it ourselves, there will be time for the eldest brother to wash the dust in the future." ”
Mrs. Jinye Hou watched the two sisters from the side, asking and answering, with a smile on her face all the time.
Gu Xiaoye only came back from the palace at night, and at that time, the Gu Ruoxi sisters couldn't stay up and went back to their own courtyard to rest. Only Mrs. Jinye Hou was still waiting for her husband and son under the lamp, and when two heroic figures appeared in the brightly lit courtyard, one after the other, her eyes suddenly moistened.
It's been five years, and she finally saw her son again!
"Mother!" When the slender heroic young man saw the beautiful and kind figure standing at the door, he immediately ran over excitedly, bent his knees, knelt in front of his mother, and kowtowed twice: "The child is not filial, he has not returned all these years, so his mother is worried!" ”
"Good boy, get up!" Mrs. Jinye Hou took her son in her arms, stroked his head, and cried: "It's good to come back!" It's good to be back! Other than that, she couldn't say anything superfluous.
"Madam, let's go in and talk about it!" Jinye Hou then also walked over, he glanced at his wife and children hugging each other in front of him with relief, and said, "It's windy outside, Xiaoye, take care of your mother's body!" As he spoke, he looked left and right, but he didn't see Gu Ruoxi and Gu Yuetong, and after only a little thought, Jinye Hou understood that the two sisters couldn't stand it, so they went back to sleep. Thinking about it, he put it down.
Mrs. Jinye Hou immediately hugged Gu Xiaoye and stood up, and the mother and son were about to turn around, but a slightly immature voice sounded behind them: "Big brother, are you back?" ”
The smile on Gu Xiaoye's face suddenly converged a lot, he turned around slowly, and sure enough, he saw that at the end of the corridor, in the dim light, his father's side room, Xu, led a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, walked over to this side with a happy face.
"See Lord Hou, madam." Xu took the child in his hand, walked to the middle man unhurriedly, bent down and gave a concubine salute to everyone one by one. The child in her arms blinked with a pair of big black eyes, staring at Gu Xiaoye's silver helmet and iron armor that had not had time to take off after returning from the palace banquet, and even forgot to invite Ye.
"Chengye, quick, please Ye for everyone!" Seeing that his son was stunned, Xu Shi just stared at Gu Xiaoye's armor and couldn't take his eyes off, so he hurriedly reached out and pinched his waist, and reminded in a low voice: "Didn't you want to see your father for a long time?" What are you doing stunned? ”
"Ahh Gu Chengye was pinched, and immediately let out a low sigh of pain, but very
Soon, he knew that he had lost his temper, and he hurriedly bent down to ask Ye to get up: "Chengye sees his father, mother, and eldest brother." ”
This Ye Yue's glance is extremely respectful, and it is not in vain that Xu Shi teaches him many times on weekdays, and it is not bad for a child who is only twelve years old to have such a quick reaction ability.
Xu Shi hurriedly said in a low voice: "Master Hou, look at ......" This voice can be described as tactful and melodious, and it reveals endless style.
"Xu, it's so late, don't rest in Cuizhu Xuan, what are you doing here?" Mrs. Kazuha Hou said expressionlessly on the side, she has always had such an attitude towards her husband's concubine. Xu's pretentiousness is what she disdains the most.
Hearing this, a little embarrassment suddenly appeared on Xu's face, her lips squirmed, and she said for a long time: "The concubine also saw that the prince was back, so she was happy to ......" Halfway through speaking, she couldn't go on, turned her head and glanced at Jinye Hou pitifully.
Jinye Hou suddenly coughed lightly and said: "Jin Lan, let's take Chengye down first, it's late today, and I'm not in a hurry to concentrate on learning at this time, Xiaoye just came back, I'm very tired, and when I'm free, I'll take Chengye over to ask him for martial arts!" ”
"Yes, Master Hou." When Xu Shi heard this, there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes, but soon, she covered up this disappointment, responded softly, and blessed her body again, and then pulled Gu Chengye to retreat.
Along the way, the little child's eyes never left the glittering silver armor of his eldest brother.
