Chapter 12: The Storm in the City

That night, Gu Yiyi woke up. The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong is as if nothing has happened, and peace is not good.

However, just five days later, when everyone thought that the matter between Gu Yiyi and Zhou Qifei was completely resolved, there was a rumor in the capital that was not very beautiful.

It is said that Gu Yiyi, the third lady of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, was shameless and caught red-handed with His Royal Highness the Third Prince at the birthday banquet of the crown princess. also forced the three princesses to die, and they had to marry into the three princes' mansion by all means.

It is said that even the three princes helped her, forcing the three princesses to give up the position of the main concubine.

It is said that the third princess was so angry that she couldn't afford to fall ill, and she was afraid that she would die soon.

Reputedly... Countless are said to have been circulated in various teahouses in the capital, so that even those who had experienced it personally and knew the truth couldn't help but participate in the discussion with great interest, and there were so many people who were talking about it, and they were not afraid that the three princes would be blamed afterwards.

With the addition of these people, those rumors that were originally mixed with truth and falsehood seem more complete and credible.

When Luan Ge told Gu Ange these messy rumors as interesting stories, Gu Ange was half-lying under the grape trellis in the courtyard with his eyes half-closed, lazily basking in the sun. Hearing these words, he just smiled faintly and was noncommittal.

However, she didn't want to pay attention to these things, which were slammed into her by herself.

Just when Gu Ange was staying in the courtyard with peace of mind, the Song family made a fuss, and when the Song family rushed to An Ge Xiaozhu with an angry face, the grandmothers guarding the gate of the courtyard did not dare to stop her, and even let her rush straight in front of Gu Ange.

Gu Ange raised his body slightly lazily, looked up at the angry Song family, and looked at Luan Ge who was standing on the side with some confusion, what's wrong with her? didn't take care of Gu Yiyi, what did she come to make trouble about, could it be that she thought that those rumors were released by her? Luan Ge smiled sympathetically at her, and then lowered his head, looking at his nose and nose. Gu Ange withdrew his gaze at Luan Ge, and then looked at Song indifferently, "Auntie has something to do when she comes to my small place at this time. There was a bit of laziness in his voice.

"Did you put those words out there?" Song still has two points of sanity, although he is angry, but he does not directly scold like a shrew as soon as he comes up.

"What's the matter, my aunt has something to say." Gu Ange pretended not to know, but sighed silently in his heart, if this matter was really done by her, it would be fine, but now why do she have to carry a black pot even though she didn't do it herself, does she really look so boring, whether Gu Yiyi is good or bad, whether she marries into the Three Princes' Mansion is a side concubine or a concubine has nothing to do with her. She also disdained to use these tactics on a boudoir woman who didn't know anything.

"Didn't you send people to spread those rumors in the city? Aren't you the happiest if you don't have a good time? The Song family smiled coldly, what happened during this time had vividly torn the mask of the Song family for so many years of disguise, and now she couldn't even be hypocritical in front of Gu Ange. After all, in her opinion, Gu Ange had absolutely reason to be jealous of Gu Yiyi, so when she heard the rumors flying all over the capital city, her first reaction was what Gu Ange did. That's why she rushed to Ange Xiaozhu regardless of it.

"Auntie, what makes you think I have this ability?" Gu Ange looked at her with some amusement, and couldn't figure out why she would count this matter on her own head.

"You don't have the skills? Didn't you hook up with the side-by-side king? Song gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Ange. Although they didn't look down on Mo Wuxian's cripple, they definitely didn't want Gu Ange to really fall into his eyes. After all, the woman's daughter will be happy if she is not doing well.

"I'm only a few sides to the king side by side, why does my aunt think he will help me?" Gu Ange seemed to be very surprised by Song's words, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were surprised.

"I..." The Song family was short of words for a while, even if the Side by Side King had already received the news and knew that Gu Ange would marry the King of Side by Side, it did not mean that Mo Wuxian would look at Gu Ange differently. After all, even an ignorant woman and child like the Song family knew that the one in the palace was not kind to Mo Wuxian, in this case, even if Gu Ange was a thorn in Mo Wuxian's eye, then Mo Wuxian would definitely not help her.

"Why didn't my aunt continue? Auntie, you don't want to think about it, whose eyes are in the way of the third sister? Auntie hasn't seen her father yet? Otherwise, you should first ask your father what his plans are. Gu Ange kept smiling. She didn't believe it, even the news that the Song family had gotten, Gu Rong would not know, and Gu Rong had not made any moves until now, indicating that Gu Rong did not intend to meddle in this matter. The three princesses, what a big stroke.

Song was stunned when he heard this, as if he remembered something, and the expression on his face suddenly became even more ugly. glanced at the lazy Gu Ange with some suspicion, and saw that her face was pale and she looked weak, and the suspicion of her in her heart was reduced a little. Also, how could Gu Ange, a sick man, have such a big stroke.

Gu Ange knew that there was nothing wrong with her when she saw her expression, so she smiled and nodded, "Auntie, go slowly." After saying that, he continued to close his eyes and bask in the sun by himself. Song glared at Gu Ange a little unwillingly, but after all, he didn't say anything, snorted coldly and brushed his sleeves away.

After the Song family left, Luan Ge stared at her back and sneered with some disdain, how could her own master do such a boring thing, she thought that her baby daughter was a big person, and it was worth her master's action. "Master?" Just when Luan Ge was stunned, Gu Ange slowly stood up.

"It's not clean in this house, let's go out and take a walk." Gu Ange stretched.

"Yes." Luan Ge responded. also followed Gu Ange into the room to clean up.

When Gu Ange, who was dressed in men's clothes, appeared on the street with Luan Ge, who was dressed in black and wearing a golden mask with dark purple patterns, Gu Ange couldn't help but take a deep breath, "Sure enough, the air that comes out is comfortable." Luan Singer held a long sword, looked at the lively crowd around him and nodded in agreement.

"Let's go, your master is happy today, let's go shopping." Gu Ange raised his eyebrows in a good mood, then turned around and looked at the stalls on the side one by one, and stopped when he encountered something interesting. Gu Ange looked at it, turned his head to look at Luan Ge, who was cold behind him, and couldn't help but reach out and pat her shoulder, "Okay, don't be nervous when you come out to play." I don't know what's going on, Luan Ge obviously looks like a beautiful woman, but that temperament is really cold, it's okay, the two get along better in private, especially when there are many people out, there is a breath of life not to enter, Gu Ange, who is watching, can't help but shake his head. I don't know what's going on, obviously Ah Yue often follows him, but his temperament is more like a senior brother, he can't jump out, and he has a heart; Luan Ge often follows his senior brother, but he doesn't know what's going on like that, it's okay to be cold, but he has less heart. The two men didn't know what was going on.

Luan Ge looked at the people around him a little uncomfortably. In the face of Gu Fu and those who were full of calculations, Luan Ge could disguise himself without flaws. But in the face of these ordinary people, she felt uncomfortable. pulled out a smile and looked at Gu Ange with some embarrassment, but he still restrained a little.

Gu Ange nodded with satisfaction, she also knew that this was Luan Ge's limit, so she didn't say anything more, and continued to turn around and walk slowly. Gu Ange walked around for more than an hour and walked in front of a shop selling musical instruments.

"Master?" Luan Ge smiled, his master's old problem was made again, and when he saw the musical instrument store, he couldn't help but want to go in to see if there was anything good.

"Let's go, even if I don't have a good flute, I can see if there are any other good things." Gu Ange didn't care, waved his hand and walked in directly. "Little boy, please inside." As soon as Gu Ange walked in, the clerk inside greeted him.

Gu Ange is well-dressed, and he looks like a rich man. Gu Ange smiled gently at him and nodded, "Don't worry about me, I'll just see for myself." The clerk also understood that the real connoisseur did not need to be introduced by others, and stood aside with a smile on his face.

Gu Ange looked at the various musical instruments in the store, and couldn't stop frowning, these things were too inferior, and they really couldn't get into her eyes. The clerk looked at the expression on Gu Ange's face and understood what she was thinking, and the smile on her face was even more obvious, "Little boy doesn't like these things?" ”

Gu Ange didn't speak, just looked at him quietly, calmly waiting for his next words. The clerk was not angry when he saw this, and said to himself, "Don't worry, little boy, we still have a treasure in the store, to ensure that the little boy is satisfied." ”

Gu Ange is not surprised, how can this kind of store have some goods that can be handed, but they don't need to be put out in normal times, "Take it out and take a look." ”

"The little boy will sit here first, and the little one will go and take out the things immediately." The clerk led Gu Ange to the side of the private seat and sat down, and then served her a cup of tea. After settling in, I turned around and went into the storeroom inside to get my things. When the clerk came out, he was still holding a brocade box in his hand, "Little boy, please take a look." He put the brocade box in front of Gu Ange, and then opened the box with a smile on his face, revealing a paulownia wood qin that looked very old.

Gu Ange's eyes lit up when he saw the qin, he stretched out his hand and plucked the strings a few times at will, and immediately a pleasant sound came out, Gu Ange nodded with satisfaction, this qin is good, better than the bed in Ah Yue's hand now, take it back and give it to him as his birthday gift. "I want this piano." Gu Ange glanced at Luan Ge who was standing behind him and motioned for her to go to the checkout.

The smile on the clerk's face was as bright as a flower, this is a big business, "Thank you little boy, the little boy really knows the goods, this is the best goods we have here, and I will benefit one thousand taels." ”

Luan Ge followed the clerk to settle the bill, and then picked up the brocade box and followed Gu Ange out of the clerk's courtesy. After going out, Gu Ange looked up at the sun in the sky and couldn't help but smile, "Let's go, let's find a place to rest." ”

Of course, Luan Ge would not express any different opinions, she didn't like these places with a lot of people, so she naturally agreed quite happily. The two of them randomly found a teahouse that looked good and walked in, there were not many people in the teahouse, Gu Ange sat casually by the window. I ordered a pot of jasmine tea and a few refreshments.

"Master, Ah Yue's kid will be very happy to see this qin." Luan Ge sat down and breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a little more smile on his face. "He practiced the piano method, which is suitable for this piano. With this piano, presumably his skills can also be taken to the next level. Gu Ange took a sip of the teacup, and then seemed to remember something, "I don't know, Luan Ge, you... ”

Of course, Luan Ge knew that Gu Ange wanted to find a suitable weapon for her, but she didn't care much about it, where did she say that she could find this kind of suitable thing, so she shook her head indifferently, "The master doesn't have to take it to heart, just follow the fate." Gu Ange naturally knew that this matter was urgent, so he smiled and didn't say anything more.

Just when the two of them casually looked at the scenery outside the window, Gu Ange's eyes flashed. "Master, that's not ... Luan Ge was obviously also the one who saw the window. "It doesn't matter, she's measured." Gu Ange gently pressed his hand and calmed Luan Ge, who wanted to say something.

At this moment, the woman in plain clothes below had already walked up with a few little girls and sat next to Gu Ange.

This teahouse can be regarded as a relatively famous one in the capital, and the people who come here are naturally either rich or expensive, and they couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the woman come up, and then a few acquaintances hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "I've seen the three princesses." When the others heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, and then everyone's eyes involuntarily drifted to the body of the third princess. Seeing the pale and haggard face of the third princess, the fire of gossip ignited in her eyes. It seems that the rumors that the three princesses were angry with the three princes and Gu Yiyi is true.

Invisibly, everyone's disdain for Gu Yiyi and Zhou Qifei was a little more. is really a scumbag and a scumbag, the third princess is so weak, at first glance she is a virtuous lady, the three princes don't cherish it, and they make her angry like this, it's really a sin!

"Get up, this concubine just sits, you are free." The third princess smiled weakly at everyone, and then picked up the maid and poured her tea and drank it. "The Three Princesses! Three princesses! What happened to you? ”

Just when everyone was sneaking at the third princess, they heard an exclamation. couldn't help but look up, and saw the third princess lying on the table, and her maid was shaking her body anxiously, and couldn't help but be surprised, what's wrong?

Gu Ange also followed the commotion, looked at the plain-clothed woman lying on the table, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.

"The third princess fainted! Doctor! Seeing that she couldn't wake up the third princess, the maid screamed anxiously, and her voice pierced people's ears. So there was another commotion in the crowd, and many people hurriedly went to ask for a doctor for the three princesses, after all, being able to catch the three princesses was also an extremely beneficial thing for them.

Of course, there were also people at the scene who knew Gu Ange, and originally wanted to ask the prince of Fanyin to come to the rescue, but after thinking about the rule that the prince of Fanyin did not treat everyone in the court, he had to dispel this idea, after all, the three princes of Fanyin did not give face, and now how could they make an exception for a mere three princesses.

In just half an hour, a man led an old man with white hair trembling up. The old doctor walked up to the three princesses, and after saying that he was offended, he took out a silk scarf and put it on the wrists of the three princesses, and began to collect his eyebrows and carefully check the pulse. After a long time, the old doctor withdrew his hand, and the old man who frowned and brushed himself naturally knew that the identity of the person in front of him was extraordinary, so he didn't dare to say anything, "This lady is not a big deal, it's just that she is in a hurry and has been thinking too much recently, just take care of it, it's no big deal, the old man just prescribes a pair of medicine to drink, just remember not to be stimulated by anything else." ”

After the old man finished speaking, the eyes of the people present became even more strange. Isn't this a disguised way to say that the third princess was stimulated by something, thinking about the recent rumors in the capital, everyone felt that they had understood.

At this time, there was another rush of footsteps, and everyone followed the sound to look over, and saw Zhou Qifei, who was dressed in white embroidered silver, trotting over, obviously rushing over after hearing the news that the third princess had fainted, and as soon as he came, everyone's eyes were a little more disdainful. Now what kind of affection do you want to express, why didn't he and Gu Yiyi think about his deep affection with the third princess when he hooked up at the crown princess's birthday banquet, hypocrisy!

Zhou Qifei ran to the side of the third princess, and the anxious expression on his face couldn't show the slightest fakeness, "Ah Qin, what's wrong?" He gently lifted the body of the third princess with one hand, and asked the little maid waiting on the side. The little maid lowered her head, "Back to Your Highness, the third princess is fine, the doctor said that she was overthinking and fainted in a hurry, and it will be okay to recuperate without any stimulation." ”

When Zhou Qifei heard this, his face distorted for a moment. Thinking of the rumors flying all over the sky recently, and being stopped by the Prime Minister when he went to court today, he was questioning himself and Gu Yiyi's meaning, and his head hurt terribly. He could never have imagined that this incident would have such a big impact on him. If he knew who was coming from these rumors, he would have to undo him.

"Nonsense! As the princess and concubine, how could Ah Qin be in a hurry and worry too much, and he didn't go back to the palace with the palace to invite the imperial doctor to come and take a look at the princess! Zhou Qifei glared at the little maid and forcibly suppressed his anger. This girl really can't speak.

After saying this, he once again received a wave of contemptuous glances, how could he not know that the gentle Third Prince His Royal Highness would actually be a scumbag! Bah!

Zhou Qifei could naturally see the meaning in the eyes of those people in the teahouse. couldn't help but feel angry again, he endured it for a long time before he endured his irritable mood, leaned over and hugged the three princesses, didn't look at the people in the teahouse, and left directly.

After Zhou Qi flew out of the door of the teahouse, the teahouse immediately became lively. Everyone pointed at Zhou Qifei's back, and their words were full of contempt for Zhou Qifei.

"I really didn't expect the third prince to be such a person." Tea guest armor.

"I didn't expect that a person who usually looks so upright will now seem, tsk." Tea guest B.

"I told you last time that I saw the third prince and Miss Gu San shopping together, and you still don't believe it." Tea guest C.

"It's a pity that the three princesses, such a peerless person, alas!" Tea Guest Ding.

"Phew! Scum! "Tea guest A, B, C, D.

"It's really interesting to be a third princess." Gu Ange sat on the side as if he was a spectator. Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, his fingers gently rubbed the teacup in his hand and muttered in a low voice.
