Chapter 42 See Wen Xuanhou
"You go to the inn and call Xiao Er out. Hua Xiyan pointed to a small inn and instructed the shopkeeper.
"Miss, are you going to ......" asked Xia a little hesitantly.
"I have a useful place for this person, you can call it." Asking Xia knew that his young lady's words could not be refuted, so he had to do so, and after a while, he called a young shopkeeper to come out.
"Please find a room for this person, and then go and get a doctor." Hua Xiyan said to Na Xiao'er with a light smile, and by the way, he took out an ingot of broken silver and handed it over.
The little second was a little reluctant, but when he saw Hua Xiyan's shot so generous, he suddenly smiled, and as a result, the silver moved neatly to set Gu Ziwen up.
"Please find someone to take care of him, we'll come back tomorrow." When he walked to the door of the inn, Hua Xiyan paused.
The little second turned around and said, "Miss, don't worry." ”
That ingot of broken silver is afraid that the wages of this little two or two years can't be worth it, and he can't complain about being so diligent, Huaxi said thank you and went back to Washington.
Hua Xi Yan went to a Liu family to pass a word, and then returned to his courtyard, now that it was past the hour, Hua Xi Yan faintly sleepy, and fell asleep after a while.
On the second day, Hua Xiyan opened his eyes and saw the sunlight shining through the carved bed, casting mottled silhouettes on the ground.
Looking up at the sun, Hua Xiyan estimated that it was not early, so he got up and called Xia in.
"What time is it?"
"Miss Hui, it's already three o'clock." Wen Xia picked up the clothes in the tray and replied respectfully.
It's so late, Hua Xiyan rubbed his forehead, thinking about how long it had been since he slept until this hour?
"Bring breakfast in, and go out when you're done."
"Yes."
Hua Xiyan's breakfast was very simple, so after a while, the two appeared on the street.
"Two of you, please!" Yesterday, the shopkeeper of the inn recognized Hua Xiyan and guided the two of them towards the store.
"How's that guy's injury?"
"Ask the doctor to see it, it's all skin injuries, it's not in the way, just recuperate for a few days." Xiao Er said very politely, pushing open a door, "Inside, Miss, please!" ”
Hua Xiyan nodded and walked in, seeing that the wounds on Gu Ziwen's body had been properly treated, and he was still asleep.
Walking to the side of the round table and sitting down, Hua Xiyan said: "You sit too, we will wait for him to wake up." ”
Wen Xia nodded, sat down with him, and looked at the person on the bed very confused.
She felt that Miss had changed a lot since that incident. Before, Miss was definitely not the kind of person who liked to show her face, but now she has to wander the street almost every day, and even go to the casino, she can't figure out why the gap between a person and a person is so big?
Huaxi Yanshui's bright and clear eyes stared at Gu Ziwen, but the light in his eyes revealed a touch of etherealism, and his thoughts didn't know where he had flown away.
Gu Ziwen woke up after half an hour, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a simple wooden bed, not the dark alley where his thoughts stayed yesterday. There was a lot of pain in his body, and his whole body seemed to be falling apart, and this pain stimulated his chaotic nerves, and yesterday's scenes came one after another.
Looking around, and finally his gaze fell on a shadowy figure over there, Gu Ziwen opened his mouth and asked, "Who are you?" ”
He recognized the man when he walked in front of him: "It's you!" ”
The soft smile on Hua Xiyan's lips was touching, and the sparkling in his eyes was moving: "Gu Gongzi has a good memory." ”
"Why are you here?"
"Gu Gongzi is going to talk to your savior like this?"
Gu Ziwen frowned, then thought of something, and said coldly: "I didn't let you save me." ”
Hua Xiyan was not annoyed by this person's ignorance, but said: "I naturally didn't save you because of anything else, just because I had the same illness as you." ”
Gu Ziwen frowned: "What do you mean?" ”
"Then Sun Muyang had a marriage contract with me before, and abandoned me for Zhao Qingru, and then you were also abandoned by Zhao Qingru, do you think our situation is similar?"
"You talk nonsense! Pei Jue didn't abandon me! Gu Ziwen's expression suddenly became a little excited, and the wounds on his body were driven by the struggle, and he gasped in pain.
Hua Xiyan glanced at him and said very seriously: "The person you miss in your heart has made you like this, but you still remember her, it is really deep-rooted." ”
"Pei Jue won't harm me!" It seemed that no one could say that Zhao Qingru was not good at all, Gu Ziwen gritted his teeth and retorted.
"It's really affectionate to call a 'Pei Jue', presumably this is the name of the girl, right?" Hua Xiyan smacked, "But your Pei Ying is now another woman, so it's really in vain to care for your sincerity." ”
Gu Ziwen suddenly pulled his lips and smiled, as if mocking: "So what? She's doing well. ”
"What if she's not doing well?"
"That's to devote my life's strength to take her away from the world!" Gu Ziwen said, his hands clenched into fists at his side, firming up his statement.
Hua Xiyan blinked, and the smile on his lips became more and more profound: "Young Lady Sun is really lucky!" Met such an infatuated man. ”
Gu Ziwen didn't say anything, a pair of eyes stared at the top of the bed, not knowing what he was thinking.
"You can take care of your injuries." Hua Xiyan threw down such a sentence and was about to turn around and leave.
"Why did you save me?" Gu Ziwen looked at Hua Xiyan vigilantly, "Last time, I helped admire and wronged you, you are so kind?" ”
"I said it was because of sameness." Hua Xiyan stopped, but didn't look back, "I have a conflict with Zhao Qingru, but this has nothing to do with you." ”
"If you want to harm Pei Jue, I will not be grateful for your kindness." Gu Ziwen pursed his lips and said again.
Hua Xiyan didn't answer again, and walked out directly.
"Miss, are we going back?" After asking Xia Jiang to repay the kindness fiercely in his heart, he asked Hua Xiyan.
Hua Xiyan shook his head: "You go and inquire, how is the Sun family now." ”
Ask Xia Yanguang turned around and took the order.
Hua Xiyan was walking on the street by herself, but suddenly two people came out in front of her and blocked her way.
"Are you Huaxiyan?" One of them asked aloud.
"Yes." Hua Xiyan nodded.
"Please come with us, our master wants to see you." The other spoke, in a respectful tone, but the words he spoke were unquestionable.
Hua Xiyan lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the two of them, and when his eyes fell on the golden knife on the waists of the two people, his eyes lit up.
"Good!" Hua Xiyan nodded and spit out a word.
"Please!" The two pointed to a simple carriage on the side, and Hua Xiyan jumped on it without hesitation.
The carriage drove up, and Hua Xiyan leaned against the wall of the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate.
The laws of the Holy Heaven were very strict, especially for the official ranks. Pingsi said that the guards of many large families wore weapons, and most of them were mainly swords, and there were very few swords.
It cannot be said that there are few people who use knives, but the regulations of this knife are extremely strict, and only people of a certain grade can brazenly carry knives. Not to mention the golden knife.
Thinking of this, Hua Xiyan slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and finally made her wait!
I don't know how long it took to drive before the carriage stopped, and when the door opened, a courtyard suddenly opened up in front of me.
"Miss Hua, please!"
The three-zhang high Zhu Gate just opened a corner door, and Hua Xiyan walked in slowly. Although this courtyard is not extremely grand, even the Sun family's mansion is incomparable, but it is very quiet. The dense forests and rocks, the jungles are stacked, the spring water exchanges, and the flower beds are shaded, just like a landscape peach orchard.
Hua Xiyan just looked around, did not look around, put his hands in front of his lower abdomen, his side was straight, and followed the two without squinting.
After passing through the four corner gates, and walking through a verandah, we arrived in front of a main courtyard.
"Miss Hua, please, the master is inside." The two stood by the door and made a gesture of one or two at Hua Xiyan.
Hua Xiyan nodded, pushed the door and walked in.
This is a very quaint room, what catches the eye is an enamel white bird rusty gold screen, the depiction is extremely vivid, as if the birds and beasts are alive, there is an incense table on the right hand, and the small copper tripod furnace on the top emits a swirling green smoke. The place against the wall is a sitting kang, and a person is facing away from the outside on the kang, bowing his head and thinking about something.
Hua Xiyan walked over slowly, and bowed down three feet away from the man: "Hua Xiyan, the daughter of the county commander of Yi County, has seen Master Hou!" ”
Wen Xuanhou slowly raised his head, looked at the woman on the ground with a scheming gaze, and slowly spoke: "I didn't let those two tell you my identity, how do you know?" ”
Hua Xiyan didn't look up, but said respectfully: "Only the guards above the marquis can wear swords, and when I entered the house, I saw that the screen was a picture of flowers and birds, and the incense on the table was also a bird's fragrance, and even the blanket under the feet of the marquis was painted with a white bird." is so fond of flowers and birds, except for the respected Wen Xuanhou, the folk girl has no other thoughts. ”
"You're very observant, and you're a quick-witted girl." Wen Xuanhou's voice was light and waveless, like a pool of stagnant water, without any waves.
"Do you know why I called you here today?" Wen Xuanhou didn't let Hua Xiyan get up, but asked.
"The people's daughter is not talented, it is difficult to guess the mind of the Hou Ye." Hua Xiyan lowered his head and said respectfully.
"Hmph...... You wouldn't have guessed? Wen Xuanhou snorted coldly, which actually made Hua Xiyan's body tremble.
The saints all know that this Wen Xuanhou has a strange temperament and is extremely difficult to get along with, except for usually fiddling with some flowers and plants, he rarely interacts with people. She came here now, she was already on an adventure, but now that she looks at it, she is really deep and extremely unpredictable.
"Look up."
"Yes!" Hua Xiyan slowly straightened up.
"It's a sign girl." Wen Xuanhou saw Hua Xiyan's face and praised it without hesitation.
Hua Xiyan looked up at Wen Xuanhou, with a touch of awe in his eyes, only to see that this person's hair was gray and his face was wrinkled, but it didn't add much kindness, but it added a little more depth that he couldn't see.
Wen Xuanhou saw that Hua Xiyan actually looked at him without hesitation, thinking that she was really a bold woman.
"I heard you know Pai Gow?"
"I know a little bit about it." Hua Xiyan said humbly.
"Let's have a game with Ben Hou." Wen Xuanhou said, pouring the dominoes on the table.
"Thank you Lord Hou for your love!" Hua Xiyan said and walked over slowly.
