Chapter 552: A Punishment That Makes People Run Away
When the room returned to calm, it was almost noon, Gu Congyuan helped Lu Yao rub her waist for a while, and let her rest alone, while she went to investigate last night's incident.
Gu Congyuan interrogated the maid who said that Gu Yuanbao was sick last night and wanted to ask Gu Congyuan to go over and take a look, and learned that the maid was also used by someone and got false news.
The maid was not from Gu Yuanbao's yard, but a little maid working in the kitchen, and when she was walking back to the lower room at night, she was stopped by another little maid.
The maid said that she was the person next to Gu Yuanbao, Gu Yuanbao suddenly fell ill, and she was going to inform Gu Congyuan, but she was walking and twisting her feet, and she couldn't walk, so she wanted the little cook to find Gu Congyuan on his behalf.
The little chef didn't think much about it, so she agreed, went to the Evergreen Courtyard to see Gu Congyuan, and told him the false news.
The little cook also said that after Gu Cong left, she had left for a while when she took care of Lu Yao, presumably Chu Huaiyu sneaked into the bedroom at that time, moved Lu Yao to the ear, and sneaked into the pretending to be Lu Yao.
Chu Huaiyu knew that even if it was successful, Gu Congyuan would be angry because of her deception, but no matter what, since he touched her, he had to be responsible for her, Gu Congyuan's dignified manly husband must be responsible, so the situation will be better than now.
It's a pity that Chu Huaiyu has made a lot of calculations, but Gu Congyuan has found out so quickly that she is not Lu Yao, all her efforts have been in vain, and she has once again aroused Gu Congyuan's disgust.
After Gu Congyuan investigated clearly, he let the innocent little cook go, and then didn't interrogate Chu Huaiyu, but only let her be locked up.
This time, it was no longer a simple confinement, not allowing her to go out of her yard, but restricting her range of activities, she could only stay in her bedroom, and could not go anywhere else, and even the hygiene problems were solved in the bedroom.
Gu Congyuan also asked people to close the doors and windows tightly, and no sunlight could shine in, Chu Huaiyu was locked in the house, unable to distinguish between day and night, and did not feel the passage of time very obviously.
Gu Congyuan ordered people not to drink Chu Huaiyu and speak, not even to see him, and when it was time to eat, he handed the food in from the window.
After a few days like this, Chu Huaiyu was about to collapse, and she felt that her spirit was about to go wrong, and the person who begged for food to deliver it told Gu Congyuan that she already knew that she was wrong and would never dare to do it again.
After Gu Congyuan heard this, he ignored it, and continued to be locked up for a few days before releasing Chu Huaiyu.
Gu Congyuan is a dignified king, a seven-foot man, who disdains to use violent means to deal with Chu Huaiyu and a female streamer, so he can only teach her a lesson in this way, fortunately, this method is quite useful, after Chu Huaiyu was released, he behaved for a long time, and he did not get in front of Lu Yao and Gu Congyuan again.
Lu Yao asked Gu Congyuan: "You say, will she give up seducing you?"
Gu Congyuan replied cautiously: "I don't know, it doesn't matter, anyway, I only have you in my heart." ”
Lu Yao grinned and said, "You don't have to be in a hurry to make a statement, I believe you are." ”
Gu Congyuan said: "Yao'er, if Chu Huaiyu still wants to be a demon, you don't have to show mercy to her subordinates. ”
"yes, I see." Lu Yao said, "However, I think after this time, she should be in peace for a while, and I don't know if she will do things again after entering, but she won't be so unscrupulous anyway." ”
As he spoke, Lu Yao frowned, thinking of Chu Huaiyu pretending to be her to seduce Gu Congyuan, and he was afraid for a while that if it wasn't for Gu Congyuan's quick reaction, I am afraid that she would really be able to get hold of her, Lu Yao felt a little disgusting as long as he thought of that possibility.
Gu Congyuan knew that something was wrong as soon as he saw her expression, and he talked about something else energetically, trying to divert her attention
Force.
The topic was successfully deviated, Lu Yao's face gradually returned to normal, and Gu Congyuan also breathed a sigh of relief, it was really dangerous.
The next few days returned to calm, and there was no need to think about how to deal with Chu Huaiyu, Lu Yao and Gu Congyuan had their own things to do, but neither of them was very busy now.
Lu Yao's Tongfu business was seriously suppressed by the emperor and feared by the imperial court, she not only did not dare to expand the business now, but also tried to restrain the people in the business, telling them to keep a low profile and survive this time.
Despite this, they were still deliberately provoked by the people on the prince's side several times, they wanted to grab Lu Yao's pigtails very much, so that they could go to His Majesty the Emperor to see her, and then climbed on Gu Congyuan, but every time Lu Yao carefully dealt with the past, let them return in vain, angry, but helpless.
Gu Congyuan's side has always been feared by the emperor, and he is also very low-key during this time, and he does not have much contact with the courtiers, for fear of being ginseng and forming a party for personal gain.
Lu Yao and Gu Congyuan hugged together to keep warm, keeping a low profile together, but secretly they were both accumulating strength, waiting for the opportunity to soar into the sky.
During this time, Chu Huaiyu was also extremely quiet, and it seemed that she was really frightened by Gu Congyuan, and she didn't dare to make another move, and she didn't even come out of her courtyard, giving Lu Yao the illusion that she was not in King Cong.
However, Lu Yao thought that he had a certain understanding of Chu Huaiyu's character, and thought that she would not be so well-behaved and quiet all the time.
Sure enough, after a period of time, Chu Huaiyu began to come out again, although he didn't dare to do anything excessive, but he was not as careful as before.
Probably curious about what kind of charm Lu Yao has, which can make Gu Congyuan love her so much, be single-minded and die-hard for her, Chu Huaiyu often went to find Lu Yao during this time, and she didn't do anything when she went, that is, she went wherever Lu Yao went, and she watched what Lu Yao did, as if she vowed to study Lu Yao thoroughly.
She didn't make trouble, Lu Yao went with her, didn't chase her, and only told her to shut up when she occasionally talked too much and made people impatient.
Then Chu Huaiyu really shut up obediently and didn't reply at all, which surprised Lu Yao very much, but as long as she stopped fighting Gu Congyuan's idea, Lu Yao was willing to live in peace with her.
So, the two got along like this, which made Gu Congyuan feel strange, but he respected Lu Yao's decision and didn't say anything, just sent a few maids who knew martial arts to Lu Yao's side to prevent Chu Huaiyu from suddenly hurting Lu Yao.
In this regard, Chu Huaiyu's reaction was: "What do you mean by him, do you want to guard against me, as for me, my Chu Huaiyu is also a famous lady, and I still want to have a face."
Lu Yao glanced at her and sneered: "I'm afraid you forgot how you pegged Gu Congyuan some time ago." ”
Chu Huaiyu was stunned and said sullenly: "That's different, I'm pestering him not only because I like him a lot, but more importantly, for the benefit of the Chu family." ”
Lu Yao looked at her, sighed, and said, "If you don't marry someone you really like, and the other party really likes you, will you feel sorry?"
Chu Huaiyu paused for a moment, as if he hadn't thought about this question, so he didn't answer.
Lu Yao asked again: "Then tell me, do you really like Gu Congyuan?"
Chu Huaiyu replied uncertainly: "I don't know, I like it a little anyway." ”
Thinking about it carefully, she just thinks that Gu Congyuan is good enough to be worthy of her, plus the family's order, she just got married, saying that she likes it, but if she wants to say that she likes it to the extent that she likes it, it doesn't seem to be.
When Lu Yao saw her expression, he guessed a few points, and he was a little speechless.
Chu Huaiyu sat down on the chair next to her and basked in the sun with her, using his arms
He pounded her elbow and asked, "Tell me quickly, why is the prince so devoted to you?"
"What's the secret, it's just that he loves me, so he naturally wants to be nice to me." Lu Yao said lightly.
"Ah" Chu Huaiyu didn't believe it, and said, "Men are all three wives and four concubines, the more offside and powerful men are like this, since ancient times, how can there be such a thing as a lifetime and a couple that only exists in the folk book."
Lu Yao rolled his eyes and said, "Then why do you say it's difficult for me to give him Gu worms?"
Chu Huaiyu shook his head without thinking about it, it was too outrageous to be a Gu or something.
"That's because you're good enough to be so liked by him." Chu Huaiyu looked at Lu Yao seriously for the first time and said, "Although I still think it's a little incredible. ”
Lu Yao smiled and said, "It's amazing that you can praise me." ”
Chu Huaiyu touched his nose embarrassedly and said, "If I hadn't married into the Cong Palace, maybe we could be friends." ”
"It's okay now, as long as you fight Gu Congyuan's idea, we are good friends." Lu Yao smiled slyly.
As soon as he said this, Chu Huaiyu suddenly frowned.
She was annoyed by this, she had given up seducing Gu Congyuan, but her father kept telling her not to give up, saying that men are that kind of virtue, and it is impossible to love only one woman forever, and when Gu Congyuan got tired of Lu Yao, her opportunity came.
Chu Huaiyu used to think that what her father said was right, but now that she had seen Gu Cong treat Lu Yao with her own eyes, she had doubts about that kind of speech.
"I'm not going to provoke him anymore anyway." In the end, Chu Huaiyu said so, planning to try to convince his father in the future, if he wants to tie the Chu family and the Cong Wangfu on the same warship, it is not necessary to use the feelings of men and women, but also to exchange interests.
Thinking so, Chu Huaiyu said goodbye to Lu Yao, planning to go back now and think about the specific matters, and try to convince Hou Ye Chu to the greatest extent.
Chu Huaiyu thought as he walked, and when he was about to reach his yard, he suddenly heard Tanchun say: "Master, look ahead, this persimmon tree grows so tall, and there are so many persimmons." ”
Chu Huaiyu stopped and looked up, and saw the persimmon hanging on the branch like a lantern, which made people salivate when they looked at it.
"Tanchun, do you want to eat persimmons" Chu Huaiyu licked his lips and asked.
"Yes." Tanchun swallowed.
"Then let's pick it" Chu Huaiyu finished speaking angrily, and ran under the tree, eager to climb up.
She had never climbed a tree, so she could be regarded as stimulating all her playfulness at once, but she was not very good at climbing, so she couldn't figure it out for a while.
"Tanchun, move a few rocks over there, I'm going to step on the trees." Chu Huaiyu turned around and greeted Tanchun.
Tanchun was taken aback and said, "Master, it's too dangerous, let's let the family pick it."
"Don't talk a lot, do as I say." Chu Huaiyu didn't listen and insisted on going his own way.
Tanchun couldn't, so she had to bring rocks to let her climb the tree, and she was terrified.
Chu Huaiyu finally climbed to the tree with great effort, and felt that his vision suddenly widened a lot, and he forgot about picking persimmons, and went straight to enjoy the scenery.
Looking at it, I forgot that I was on a tree, and I didn't pay attention to it, and my steps were unsteady, so I fell down.
"Master"
"The Princess"
Tanchun and the maids exclaimed.
Chu Huaiyu was even more frightened, and closed his eyes in embarrassment.
However, the expected pain did not come, and she fell into a warm and wide embrace.
