Chapter 43: Meet the Tatars Again
The two left the clothing store hand in hand, wandered all the way, and walked to Yundingtian. In order to be able to enjoy the scenery while eating with Zhang Yue, Gu Li did not go to the private room, but chose a position by the window in the hall on the second floor to sit down, and Gu Li asked her two entourages to sit at the table a little farther away, so that she could talk to Zhang Yue and the two.
Gu Li was not familiar with this place, so Zhang Yue helped him order a lot of signature dishes, and the two chatted while eating, Gu Li told Zhang Yue a lot of Anecdotes and beautiful scenery of Hami, and Zhang Yue heard that he wanted to go to Hami to see it with his own eyes.
At this moment, a group of people came out of the private room on the second floor of Yundingtian, Zhang Yue subconsciously looked at it, the man led by this group of people turned out to be the foreign man who robbed Zhang Yue of the ancient jade safety buckle that day, this person was wearing dark clothes, surrounded by other people, it seemed that his identity was quite noble, and he was talking to the Han people next to him.
Zhang Yue said, "Gu Li, it's the one who grabbed the ancient jade buckle with us." ”
Gu Li also turned her head to look, her brows furrowed slightly, and she seemed to be quite bored, "It's him!" ”
Zhang Yue asked, "What?" Do you know him? ”
Gu Li said, "I didn't know him that day, but my father has taken me to visit many people in the past few days, and one of them is him, this person is from Tatar...... A nobleman, with a high status in Tatar, my father even wanted to marry me to him. Hum! ”
Zhang Yue was slightly surprised, "Your father actually wants to marry you to him, so what about your sweetheart?" ”
Gu Li said with a firm look in his eyes, "I have already rejected my father, except for the person in my heart, I would rather die than marry." ”
Zhang Yue nodded. Just as he was about to withdraw his gaze from the man, the man turned his head and seemed to find the two of them, especially when he saw the women's dress, his eyes flashed a trace of surprise and surprise, he quickly got rid of the group of people around him, walked straight to the table of the two, and came to his side in a blink of an eye.
"You two are having a drink here, so happy!"
Zhang Yue was about to speak, but Gu Li said unceremoniously,
"Last time I was in front of my father, I made it clear to you, are you okay?"
The handsome face of the man in Xuanyi didn't mind Gu Li's unfriendliness. His eyes were fixed on Zhang Yue's face, and there seemed to be a cluster of jumping flames in his eyes.
"In the next eye, I didn't recognize the girl's identity in the antique shop that day. I should have thought about how such a beautiful look could be a man. ”
Zhang Yue has always had a bad impression of this man, and when he heard his tone at this time, he was provocative, and he was angry, "Has this son finished speaking?" When that's all that, please leave, we don't know each other, and you're not a good fit here. ”
A mysterious smile tugged at the man's lips, "Oh, Miss Guli, don't we really know each other?" Yes, you did refuse your father's marriage to me. But you should understand that the reason why your father did not persecute you for the time being is because I did not express my position, guess what your father would have done if I had agreed to marry you? ”
Gu Li's face turned pale instantly, her lips trembled, and she gritted her teeth, "What do you want?" ”
The man's eyes were sharp and pressing, and he swept Zhang Yue's face intentionally or unintentionally, "I'm in a good mood today, you can try to convince me that I don't agree to your father's marriage proposal." ”
Gu Li's face changed again and again, and she glanced at Zhang Yue and hesitated.
Zhang Yue listened to the whole story next to him, the man in front of him was quite powerful, Gu Li's father was very jealous of him, it seemed that he wanted to help Gu Li, and he had to persuade him today, Zhang Yue gave Gu Li a look, Gu Li understood, and said reluctantly,
"Sit down."
The man in Xuanyi sat next to Zhang Yue in a chic manner, his face was cold and lonely, and there was no joy or anger in his eyes.
Zhang Yue silently moved the chair a little farther away, saw Gu Li purse the corners of her mouth, and sighed secretly, it seems that for the sake of her friends, she has to get off the horse, Zhang Yue cleared her throat and adjusted the tone of her speech slightly.
"This son, you may not know that Miss Guli already has a sweetheart, why do you want to force it?"
Gu Li also said next to him, "Yes, I will not marry anyone except my sweetheart." ”
The man in Xuanyi said mockingly, "Sweetheart?!" According to your father, he was just a house slave, do you think your father would marry you off a house slave? ”
Gu Li's face changed, "You are not allowed to insult him!" ”
Zhang Yue was shocked, she couldn't imagine that Gu Li's sweetheart was actually a servant of her family, and the man in Xuanyi seemed to expect Gu Li's reaction, "Even if I promise you to refuse your father's marriage, do you think your sweetheart, that house slave, dares to marry you?" Hum! ”
"You..." Gu Li seemed to be choked by the speaker by seven inches, and she couldn't speak.
Zhang Yue opened his mouth next to him, "Eh, you person, we are kind to discuss with you, if you don't want to, it's just that, why did you make fun of my friend." Who does my friend like, what's in your way? ”
The man in Xuanyi looked at Zhang Yue with deep meaning, "You open your mouth and close your mouth Friend, you treat this Guli girl as a friend and help her so much, but you still don't know her true identity, right?" ”
Gu Li's face changed, and she was about to say something.
The man in the dark robe preemptively said, "Let me tell you, this Guli girl is the daughter of Tamur, the king of Hami Zhongshun, and the lord of Ayiguli. ”
Zhang Yue looked at Gu Li in surprise, she couldn't imagine that Gu Li's identity was so prominent, her life, the friends she made were all so noble, and they didn't tell themselves their true identities, it didn't feel good to be concealed, she lowered her head silently.
Gu Li looked at Zhang Yue apologetically, "Zhang Yue, don't think about it, I didn't mean to hide it from you, I was going to tell you my identity in the next few days." It's just..."
"Just what? It's just that you're worried that people are approaching you with ulterior motives, so you don't tell her in order to prevent her. The man in Xuanyi said coldly.
"No, you're talking nonsense, Zhang Yue, don't listen to his nonsense..."
"This son." Zhang Yue interrupted the man's words and slowly raised her head, her clear eyes did not have the slightest anger and unwillingness, but were dyed with a warm and peaceful smile, "Don't say it again, your words have hurt my friend Gu Li." ”
The man in Xuanyi's heart was shocked, and his pupils shrank,
"Your friend?!"
"Yes, Guli is my friend. And let me tell you, it was Guli who became friends with me, not the lord of Guli. When I first met Guli, she shared with me the most important things in her heart. She believed in me so much, why should I care who she was? Everyone has her principles and hardships in doing things, and since you are friends, you must choose to trust her. ”
"Zhang Yue..." Gu Li's expression was full of emotion, and her eyes were slightly red.
A feeling of déjà vu surged in the heart of the man in Xuanyi again, his eyes were firmly fixed on Zhang Yue, and a strange brilliance was released in his eyes, and after a while, the man's mouth rose slightly, and he muttered to himself
"You're still like this...."The rest of the sentence was not finished.
Zhang Yue was a little strange about the man's reaction, and the man said slowly, "That's it, this Zhang Yue girl, let me ask you a few questions, and if your answer satisfies me, I will agree to Lord Guli's request." ”
Zhang Yue was stunned, and he didn't know what tricky question the man was going to ask. Hesitantly looked at Gu Li, Gu Li nodded at Zhang Yue, and Zhang Yue said, "Okay, you ask." ”
The man spoke slowly, "Do you have an uncle?" ”
Zhang Yue was blinded, what is the problem, "Yes!" ”
"What does your uncle do?"
"He was a head catcher in the yamen. What does this do, you ask? ”
When the man heard Zhang Yue's answer, he seemed to be very satisfied with Zhang Yue's answer, and his eyes looked at her with a hint of joy that he had regained the treasure.
"Excellent! I'm satisfied with your answer. He stood up calmly, turned around and was about to leave, as if remembering something, he turned back to Gu Li and said, "Don't worry, I will refuse your father's marriage." With that, he drifted away.
Gu Li and Zhang Yue looked at the man's back, stunned for a while, Zhang Yue stammered, "He... There's something wrong with him, right? ”
