CHAPTER XXXVIII
It was the first time Gu Nanye had heard someone say that he wanted to protect him, and this feeling was very strange.
Qu Muge realized what he had said, he was a little panicked, and hurriedly turned his face away and explained: "Master Hou is my benefactor, you rescued me from hell, in order to repay the kindness, I will also help you...... If it doesn't help you, then let's stay in hell together......"
Gu Nanye took a few steps back, pulling the two away a bit.
He looked at Ye Taixuan and suddenly realized that he had made a big mistake.
was just a half-grown girl in front of him, and his immature appearance made him ignore that the real Ye Taixuan was a mature woman, not a child.
Although he was not sure, he was somewhat aware of Ye Taixuan's heart for him.
If that's the case, it's not good.
He turned his back and said, "This matter is over, don't mention any calculations in the future, I have arranged my affairs, you go down." ”
Qu Muge was aggrieved in his heart, but it could only be like this.
After she left, Xu Baoru cautiously entered the study, looking at the broken porcelain bowl on the ground and Gu Nanye's dark face, he asked in a low voice, "Master Hou, is something wrong?" ”
After thinking about it, Gu Nanye said, "You go to Beijing and inform Bai Yuanhui to pick up Ye Taixuan as soon as possible." ”
Xu Baoru was a little puzzled and wanted to ask the reason, but after looking at the mess in one place, he wisely chose to shut up.
The Mid-Autumn Festival of the Gu family was uneventful, Master Gu drank medicine for a long time, and when he returned to the house, he had a lot of sleep.
And neither Gu Nanye nor Mrs. Gu proposed to see the lanterns again.
Qu Muge was beaten up, and he also leaked his thoughts, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he avoided Gu Nanye a little.
Gu Nanye never spoke to Qu Muge alone.
Qu Muge had never felt that life was so boring, so when she received Lin Youdian's invitation, she agreed without hesitation.
Since Lin Youdian got the painting of "The Palace of Eternal Life", he became interested in "The Legend of the Second Concubine", not only went to Tianyin Pavilion to watch the performance of "The Legend of the Second Concubine" several times, but also launched a collection of paintings in Jinling College.
Qu Muge had never participated in the Yaji, so he went to ask Mrs. Gu if there were any rules.
Mrs. Gu was very happy that Qu Muge could go out and make more friends, and gave her an idea: "To participate in the painting appreciation collection, you need to bring a painting for everyone to enjoy, and Ono has a "Golden Rooster Morning Song", which is intended to urge the painting viewers to smell the rooster and dance, and be diligent in learning, which is very suitable to bring to Jinling University to participate in the collection." ”
Qu Muge hadn't spoken to Gu Nanye for several days, but now that he had a legitimate excuse, he went to Siqi Courtyard anxiously.
The person guarding outside the Siqi Courtyard became Fan Washui, and after Qu Muge explained his intention to him, Fan Washui went in to report.
After a while, Fan Washui came out with a painting box and handed the "Golden Rooster Morning Song" to Qu Muge.
Qu Muge took the painting box sullenly and walked back in three steps.
Gu Nanye didn't even see her......
Qu Muge suddenly remembered that in his previous life, the emperor once wanted to give Ye Taohua to Gu Nanye for marriage, but Gu Nanye clearly refused.
It's over...... How could she forget? He must be hating himself now......
Sad and suppressed emotions have always plagued Qu Muge, and on the day she went to Jinling Academy to participate in the Yaji, she also looked mentally deficient.
Lin Youdian borrowed the Sage Academy of Jinling Academy to hold an elegant gathering, and in addition to his classmates, he also invited Ye Taixuan and Xie Zhiyin.
Qu Muge met Lin Youyi who was talking to Xie Zhiyin at the door.
The three of them said hello, and then walked into the academy together and went to the Sage Academy.
There is a sage wall in the Sage Courtyard, which is engraved with the 12 sages who preached and received karma for more than 300 years since the founding of the Yong Dynasty.
Qu Muge only knew Confucius and Mencius, and did not know the twelve sages of Yongguo, so he watched with great curiosity.
Among them, there was an old gentleman named Song Bei, who was Gu Nanye's maternal grandfather, Mrs. Song, and she couldn't help but take a few more looks.
There are a lot of people who participate in the Yaji, after all, no one has ever seen Gu Nanye's paintings, and they all want to see how much skill this famous military general-born Hou Ye has.
Lin Youdian came forward to greet Ye Taixuan, and when he saw her holding a painting box in her hand, he asked in surprise, "Is it the Hou Ye's ink treasure?" ”
Qu Muge shook his head, Lin Youdian was slightly disappointed, but he didn't care, so he invited them to sit down and waited for the start of the elegant gathering.
Fang sat down, and a young man stood up and said angrily: "Brother Lin Xian, the elegant collection of our academy has always not invited outsiders, you can't break the rules." ”
Lin Youdian explained: "Brother Hu, the "Palace of Eternal Life" that I want to appreciate today was lent to me by Miss Ye, why is it wrong for me to invite her to the meeting? ”
The young man of the Hu family said: "The Palace of Eternal Life is not her painting, why is she a country girl who has never read a book?" Still appreciating paintings? Laughing to death. ”
Lin Youdian was so angry that he said, "Hu Haisheng, pay attention to your words, don't make trouble on my Yaji!" ”
Lin Youyi was a little indignant, and whispered to Qu Muge: "It must be Wei Changfeng who instigated Hu Haisheng to make trouble." ”
Lin Youdian deliberately did not invite Wei Changfeng this time, Wei Changfeng was excluded, and he was angry, and Hu Haisheng was a person who often mixed up with Wei Changfeng.
Xie Zhiyin, who has always spoken little, spoke at this time: "I am not a student of Jinling Academy, and according to what Hu Gongzi said, I shouldn't sit here." But since it's a collection of paintings, it's natural to be qualified by paintings, right? ”
Yaji has the rules of Yaji, Xie Zhiyin is right, and Hu Haisheng is inconvenient to argue forcibly.
"In that case, please appreciate the paintings that Miss Ye and I brought first, and then decide whether we are qualified to appreciate your paintings."
After that, Xie Zhiyin first showed the calligraphy and paintings he brought.
It is a landscape map of a famous calligrapher and painter in the former dynasty.
"Mr. Zhengde is a famous landscape artist, and his paintings are naturally qualified." Lin Youdian said that no one raised objections.
Everyone looked at Qu Muge, waiting for her to show her paintings.
Qu Muge got up and shook his head, intending to go back.
She was already in a bad mood today, and after participating in the Yaji, she only felt that it was a group of rich children who got together to compete and show off, which was boring.
What an elegant collection, a vulgar collection is right.
Seeing that she refused to take out the painting, Hu Haisheng immediately became interested and stopped: "Since you brought it, show it for everyone to see, lest everyone say that I wronged you and are not qualified." ”
Xie Zhiyin was also a little puzzled, she saw that the paintings brought by Ye Taixuan were packed with the most precious golden silk nanmu, and the bottom of the painting box was also branded with the seal of the palace treasury, which should be a collection in the palace.
"Whether I'm qualified or not, it's not your turn to judge." Qu Muge was so annoyed that he just wanted to go back.
