Chapter 3: People from the Gu Mansion

Just a few days after the two lived in Nalan Villa for a few days, Gu Ange suddenly received news from the Gu family's old mansion, saying that it was from the capital and asked the eldest lady to return quickly.

Because Gu Ange has been staying in Nalan Villa to take care of Mo Wuxian these days, he has hardly returned to the old mansion, and fortunately, no one on the old mansion will usually look for her, otherwise this is really impossible to hide.

Because he had known that someone would come over there sooner or later, Gu Ange had already prepared early, and now he was going back, but when he was leaving, Mo Wuxian took the remaining guards around him and returned to the old mansion with Gu Ange.

"You're going to stay in this kind of place, huh?" Mo Wuxian was sitting in Gu Ange's room at this time, and put down the teacup in his hand with some disgust. This teacup is made roughly, it is ordinary white porcelain, to be honest, this kind of thing is rarely used by people in the palace, not to mention that the tea in it is even inferior quality.

Gu Ange's room is in the most remote courtyard of the old mansion, the yard is very small, the decoration is even more simple, almost nothing of value can be seen, Gu Ange also changed out of the gorgeous brocade clothes he wore in Nalan Villa, put on a light blue cardigan dress embroidered with inferior silk embroidered flowers, wore a crystal tassel hairpin on his head, and put on makeup on his face, white and sickly, but it was exactly the same as the legendary sick seedling Gu Ange.

"No way, this place is full of other people's eyeliner, isn't it in vain that I don't pretend to be someone else's hard work." Gu Ange didn't care at all, and drank the tea in the cup by himself, "Besides, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is the way to survive for a long time." ”

"Yes." Mo Wuxian smiled.

Gu Ange had just returned to the old mansion and someone came to invite her, and when she arrived in the hall, she saw a young man dressed as a guard standing in the center of the hall, the man was dressed in cloth, his momentum was restrained, and his expression was indifferent.

"I've seen Second Miss." When the man saw Gu Ange come in, he bowed respectfully, but he couldn't see that he looked down on Gu Ange, an unfavored young lady.

Gu Ange held the hand of a little girl, entered the hall and stood by the door, nodded at him timidly, and looked cowardly.

"The subordinate is Ah Yi, the guard next to the Hou Ye, who came here to pick up the second miss back to Beijing on the order of the Hou Ye, and asked the second miss to clean up, and we will go on the road on time tomorrow." Although the man seemed to be respectful and polite, he said something that could not be refuted.

Gu Ange didn't bother to ask anything, nodded directly, and then planned to go back to the room on the grounds of physical discomfort. But at this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in a fancy dress and a little wealthy walked in through the door, with a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old by his side. The girl is dressed in a lilac-colored delicate plain dress, the fabric is excellent, the head is casually decorated with some simple hair accessories, the eyebrows are not painted and dained, the lips are not dotted and vermilion, and there is a tear mole in the corner of the right eye. At least under Gu Ange's deliberate dress, she can show her style. is even more like Miss Zhongyong's Mansion than Gu Ange.

"Sister Ge'er is good." As soon as the middle-aged man entered the door, he walked up to the top and sat down very consciously, and he didn't look at Gu Ange, but the girl greeted Gu Ange softly.

Gu Ange swept away the impatience in his eyes, and leaned over the girl gently, "Sister Yanan is good." "To be honest, this girl was raised in the second room of this old mansion and was not raised, and she was still a little scheming, but it was not easy, so for the sake of her difficulty, Gu Ange was generally willing to deal with her.

"Yo~ Ge'er also went out today, I didn't know how I came to see the second uncle." As soon as the man in the fancy dress opened his mouth, he was a little snarky, and his words were yin and yang.

Gu Ange timidly stirred the silk handkerchief in his hand and said in a low voice, "Yes, Gu Ange has seen the second uncle." ”

The man in the fancy clothes is the second room left by the Gu family in the old mansion, Gu Hua. This Gu Hua has always stayed in the south of the Yangtze River, and with the Gu family's power in the capital, life is also very comfortable. But even if the days are comfortable, he still feels that he has not stayed in Beijing to live a comfortable life, so he has been planning how to return to Beijing, so how to look at the young lady who threw back this big house is not pleasing to the eye, if it weren't for Gu Ange's own ability, I don't know if he can survive until now.

Gu Hua snorted coldly, and no longer cared about this unpleasant niece, he had more important things to do today. Raising his eyes to look at Ah Yi who was standing in the hall, his tone softened, "Are you here to pick up Gu Ange back to Beijing?" ”

Ah Yi lowered his eyes, unable to see any emotion, "Yes." ”

"Since you are here to pick up Gu Ange back, then take Yanan back to Beijing by the way, Yanan is also old, you go back and tell the eldest brother to let him help find a good family for Yanan." Although Gu Hua's tone was softened, he was still a little arrogant, and it was extremely uncomfortable to hear.

Gu Ange stood aside to make murals, but he sneered in his heart, this Gu Hua is a good calculation, this is to find a good family for Gu Yanan, but in fact, it is still for his own planning, when Gu Yanan marries a good family, he can also use the power of her husband's family to go to the next level, and then he will no longer have to look at Gu Rong's face. These people, to put it bluntly, just regard their daughters as pawns to gain glory and wealth, which is really disgusting!

Ah Yi smiled, "Second master, don't worry, the subordinates told the Hou Ye before they came, saying that they would let their subordinates take Miss Yanan back to Beijing together, and ask the second master to help clean up together." ”

Hearing Ah Yi say this, Gu Hua and Gu Yanan's faces looked a lot better, and they were obviously still very satisfied with this arrangement.

"That's very good, then it's hard for you, go down and rest." After saying this, Gu Hua got up, apparently planning to leave. When he passed by Gu Ange, he just glanced at her lightly, his face was disdainful, and then he left quickly. However, Gu Yanan smiled and leaned over gently at Gu Ange, and said goodbye. Gu Ange also leaned over lightly and returned the salute.

Ah Yi didn't say anything when he saw the two of them, but just leaned over slightly in the direction where Gu Hua took Gu Yanan away, and then looked at Gu Ange.

Gu Ange had a pale face, smiled weakly at him, and then left with the hand of the maid beside him, but he didn't want to, and when he looked back, he found that Ah Yi had also followed, and he was a little puzzled, "Ah Yi, what are you doing with me?" ”

Ah Yi was silent, just blindly followed Gu Ange.

Gu Ange looked at the young man's wooden face, and suddenly felt a little funny, "Ah Yi, there is a difference between men and women, what do you do with me." ”

Ah Yi's face changed strangely, and after a long time, he spit out two words a little stiffly, "Lord Wang." ”

Gu Ange's face changed, and when he saw that there was no one around, his eyes were cowardly and timid, and he became extremely aggressive, showing his grace, "What do you mean by this?!" "It is extremely dangerous for Mo Wuxian to be known about his own affairs, so it's no wonder that Gu Ange is so cautious.

"The subordinates are the prince's people, and they came by order to beg Miss Gu to bring their subordinates down to meet the prince." Seeing that Gu Ange's face changed, a touch of danger crossed his heart, and he knew that if he didn't explain it well, he was afraid that this person would make a move, so he hurriedly explained.

Gu Ange frowned, and with a wave of his hand, Ah Yi fell, and now there are too many dangers around Mo Wuxian, and she has to guard against it. glanced at the little girl beside her, the little girl immediately understood, changed her weakness just now, grabbed the young man who fell to the ground, and followed Gu Ange to move up and down a few ups and downs and disappeared in place.

When Gu Ange returned to the room, he saw Mo Wuxian sleeping soundly on his bed, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, this guy really didn't regard himself as an outsider anymore.

"Master, wake up." Gu Ange stepped forward and gently pushed Mo Wuxian.

Mo Wuxian grabbed Gu Ange's little hand, "Be good, don't make trouble." There was a bit of hoarseness in his voice that hadn't woken up yet, and with his red lips, it was also a little more seductive.

Gu Ange couldn't help shaking his heart, and sighed in his heart that he was so good-looking, and then without hesitation, he withdrew his hand and slapped his paw on it, and the crisp sound made the body of the young man who was thrown on the ground tremble.

"The little girl is young, but she is really ruthless." Mo Wuxian was beaten once, and immediately sobered up, sat up and muttered, a little dissatisfied.

Gu Ange glanced at him, "The person on the ground who said it was you, you can identify it yourself." Saying that, he unraveled the poison on Ah Yi. Anyway, he is alone now, and he is not afraid of what will happen to him.

"My subordinates have seen the prince." Ah Yi moved his somewhat stiff body, and immediately knelt respectfully.

"Get up." Mo Wuxian waved his hand and motioned for Ah to come together.

Hearing this, Ah Yi got up respectfully and stood beside the little girl who had just followed Gu Ange.

"This Ah Yi is the person who inserted into Gu Rong's side after I learned the news, this time Gu Rong wants to find someone to take you back to Beijing, so I will let the rumors of Lihuo be sent to him, and he will be sent out, I will follow you around, and it will be much more convenient to find someone of your own." Mo Wuxian stretched out his hand and explained.

Gu Ange looked at him like an uncle, and handed him the tea he had just poured and just taken a sip of it to his hand angrily. I don't know when it started, but this guy Mo Wuxian suddenly began to like to grab the tea in his hand.

Gu Ange handed it naturally, Mo Wuxian drank it naturally, and even the little girl on the side looked at it naturally, and the only unnatural thing was Ah Yi.

"Okay, I know, but I don't know what Gu Rong is thinking, I have to bring Gu Yanan back to Beijing together." Gu Ange didn't bother to take care of this Mo Wuxian, who occasionally looked like a child, and asked softly.

"Whew! Zuo is just a chess piece for a few more marriages, when will the powerful family dislike their daughters? Mo Wuxian sneered, and there was a lot of disdain in his tone. I'm afraid that this Gu Rong's wishful thinking won't work, don't look at Gu Yanan's gentleness and touching like a Jiangnan child, but the scheming is not bad, maybe when this chess piece will be able to cross the most important thing in his hand. Gu Ange listened to Mo Wuxian's words, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he took Gu Yanan back, so presumably the days of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion would be more fun. With Gu Yanan going back to stir up the situation, his own affairs will be done more smoothly.

"By the way, Ah Yi, this time Gu Rong asked you to pick me up, did you let me tell me that it was for marriage?" Gu Ange turned his head and leaned lightly on the table, playing with the teacup in front of him a little bored.

"Miss Hui, no, he just asked his subordinates to come to pick up Miss, saying that Miss was also in time, and it was time to take her back to Beijing to arrange a good family affair for Miss." Ah Yi heard Gu Ange's question, and hurriedly replied respectfully.

"Then presumably in the future, Beijing will definitely be a good show." Hearing this, Mo Wuxian took over the words, and stretched a little lazily.

"yes, it's going to be a good show." Gu Ange also echoed with some meaning.

The room suddenly fell silent, the two masters did not speak, and the two subordinates did not dare to speak, so the four of them were so quiet with their own hearts, and after a while, they heard Mo Wuxian's voice, "Okay, I'm tired, you go down first." ”

Hearing this, Ah Yi, who was standing on the side, retreated without saying a word, but the little girl standing next to Gu Ange stared at Mo Wuxian with a dissatisfied expression. This person is so rude, is his daughter's boudoir also a man who can stay? This girl's name is Luan Ge, she was saved by Gu Ange when she was a child, Gu Ange found someone to teach her martial arts, she has been by her side all these years, and she is also loyal to Gu Ange, now seeing that this man actually wants to damage the reputation of his master, how can he not be angry.

Mo Wuxian noticed the little girl's expression, but he was happy, "It's a loyal one, remember, in the future, except for Childe and me, any man who wants to enter your master's boudoir will be killed, and if something happens, I will bear it for you." ”

Luan Ge was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Mo Wuxian to say this, and looked at Gu Ange, who was a little crying and laughing on the side, for some unknown reasons.

Gu Ange waved his hand and asked Luan Ge to retreat. Although Luan Ge was a little worried about his master's reputation, he still didn't dare to disobey Gu Ange's words after all, so he retreated.

When there were only two of them left in the room, Gu Ange spoke, "Master, your hand is so deep, even the people around me are blatantly calling it." ”

"An Ge will be the one who wants to be the princess of this king in the future, and it is not too much for this king to properly declare his sovereignty." Mo Wuxian turned around and returned to Gu Ange's bedside, lay down by himself, and didn't forget to beckon Gu Ange to come along, "Ange, aren't you sleepy, let's sleep together for a while, I'm afraid I'll have to get up early tomorrow, I have to say, you only have the most comfortable things on this bed here." ”

Gu Ange twitched the corners of his mouth, looking at Mo Wuxian's reasonable appearance, he laughed angrily, pinched his somewhat itchy hand, sat on the spot and looked at Mo Wuxian on the bed for a long time, but still snorted coldly and turned around and walked out of the room, planning to sleep in another room, she felt that if she stayed here any longer, she might not be able to help but poison him directly.

Early the next morning, Gu Ange and Mo Wuxian walked out of the gate of the old mansion together and got into the carriage prepared in front of the door. Gu Yanan followed closely behind, and saw Mo Wuxian wearing a mask next to Gu Ange, although she was a little curious, but she still didn't say anything after all, she was not her father's kind of scheming person, so she could naturally see clearly that her cousin was not as simple as it seemed, otherwise she wouldn't have lived in this big mansion for so long, so she generally didn't want to provoke her.

Of course, Gu Ange also knew that Gu Yanan was a smart person, so he also believed that she knew what to say and what to rot in her stomach.

Gu Ange and Mo Wuxian got into the carriage in front, and Ah Yi and Luan Ge sat outside the carriage to catch the car. Gu Yanan and the little girl beside her got into the carriage behind.

Gu Ange's carriage is the one in Nalan Villa, although he can't see anything on the outside, but there is something special on the inside. The space in the carriage is quite large, it can accommodate four or five people, the car is covered with excellent snow fox skin, and there is a pot of tea in the small case in the carriage, and the fragrance of tea is moving. Gu Ange passed the time with a medical book by herself, while Mo Wuxian sat next to her and leaned on the side of the carriage to close her eyes and recuperate, and the atmosphere between the two was just right.

"When you return to Beijing, you should pay attention to yourself, don't play yourself in when you arrive. After returning to Beijing, there are a lot of people who are staring at me, and I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you so easily. Mo Wuxian suddenly spoke. Now he is blind, but he has a huge number of troops in his hands, and many of them are thinking about the military power in their hands, and it is a little inconvenient for him to do anything.

"Don't worry, I know, I'm not so stupid to play myself in." Gu Ange put down the book in his hand, poured a cup of tea for Mo Wuxian, and put it in her hand. Of course, she also knows Mo Wuxian's difficulties, but Gu Ange has not been a fool for all these years, she has no shortage of connections and money now, I believe that it is still not too necessary to use Mo Wuxian's power to deal with these people, and the original transaction with Mo Wuxian was just for the occasional need.

"Hmm." Mo Wuxian snorted lightly, then picked up the tea and drank it, "Sure enough, it still came out, the tea in your yard is really unpalatable." ”

Gu Ange didn't speak, just looked at Mo Wuxian quietly.

Mo Wuxian noticed the gaze on his body, and was a little helpless, "What are you looking at me for?" ”

"I'm wondering what I'm going to do if this happens." Gu Ange had a headache, "You said that if I stay by your side at that time, are you willing to take me in?" ”

Mo Wuxian was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Gu Ange to say this, "If I don't die in the future, I will definitely protect you, you are my princess." To be honest, Mo Wuxian himself didn't know what he was thinking about Gu Ange, but he knew that if Gu Ange was willing to stay by his side in the future, he must be extremely happy.

"Also, the Wangfu family has a big business side by side, and it shouldn't be difficult to raise me, and I find that I still prefer to be a carefree rice worm." Gu Ange suddenly laughed, and his laughter was crisp and pleasant.

Hearing Gu Ange's laughter, the corners of Mo Wuxian's mouth unconsciously hooked.

So after a journey of more than half a month, the group finally arrived in the capital.

Mo Wuxian got out of the carriage when he just entered the capital, followed the people of the palace back, and left a piece of white fox jade pendant for Gu Ange when he left, and told her to take the jade pendant directly to the palace to find him if she had something.

"Your skill in this broken thought is really exactly the same as Ah Yue. Don't worry, if there is something that can't be solved, I will definitely go to you, don't worry. Seeing that Mo Wuxian still had the intention of continuing to chatter, Gu Ange hurriedly interrupted him, and then drove him out of the carriage. Before Mo Wuxian left, Gu Ange looked at his eyes that were as beautiful as glass, but did not have the slightest brilliance, and silently calculated in his heart that he had to let the people below hurry up to find medicinal materials, and curing Mo Wuxian's eyes as soon as possible could be regarded as a matter of her heart.

Just when Gu Ange was calculating to give Mo Wuxian a look, the carriage also slowly drove to the gate of the Marquis Zhongyong's mansion.

After the carriage stopped, Gu Ange stepped out of the carriage with Luan Ge's hand, but saw that there were already many people waiting there in front of the door of the Marquis Zhongyong's mansion, it seemed that Gu Rong had given her a lot of face in order to make her obedient. Gu Ange casually glanced at a group of people in front of the door, and saw Gu Rong, who was dressed in Hou Ye clothes, with a woman dressed in red clothes, luxuriously dressed, although a little old, but he could see the grace of his youth, and there were several women with different appearances, or charming, pure or gentle, thinking that it was Gu Rong's concubine.

Gu Ange stared at Gu Rong's familiar face, which was a little old, but had hardly changed, and snorted coldly in his heart, although he looked good, but unfortunately he was a well-dressed beast, and he didn't know what his mother had taken a fancy to him back then. Moving her gaze to the woman in red next to her, the sneer in her heart was even worse, if it weren't for the information sent to her by Mo Wuxian, she would almost feel that the woman in front of her was the wife of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion. I didn't expect that after so many years, this Song family is still an aunt, and it was really in vain that Gu Rong spoiled her so much.

"The daughter visits her father." Gu Ange had a pale little face, and bowed to Gu Rongyingying, looking like he was about to fall as soon as the wind blew.

Gu Yanan, who was following closely behind her, also hurriedly saluted Gu Rong.

Gu Rong suddenly helped Gu Ange up with a smile on his face, "Ge'er is weak, so it's a big courtesy, let's go into the house with my father." "That's like that, as if Gu Ange is his most precious daughter.

"Thank you, father." Gu Ange smiled weakly, looking even more lovable, Gu Rong was willing to act, and she didn't mind accompanying him to act.

"Yanan also come in, it's been hard along the way." Gu Rong only noticed Gu Yanan next to him at this time, and the smile on his face faded a little.

Gu Yanan also pretended not to see it, smiled sweetly at Gu Rong, and whispered yes.

So the group walked into the Hou Mansion in such a majestic manner.
