Chapter 41: Rumors Spread

Both of them tacitly did not mention Su Yunlai, and they were still as close as before.

Suddenly, a vague smell wafted into the room, and Gu Junyan's expression suddenly changed: "It's on fire!" ”

Li Sheng was also shocked, and the two ran out together, and saw that the women's compartment was full of smoke, and the fire had spread and burned.

"It's on fire!" From time to time, screams were heard: "Hurry up and put out the fire!" ”

Gu Junyan ran towards the women's room without hesitation, Li Sheng followed closely, and when he arrived at the women's room, there were already monks who were already fighting the fire.

"Is there anyone else in there?!" Gu Junyan grabbed a monk and asked angrily.

The monk was frightened by his anger for a moment, and then stammered, "Wu, Princess Wuyang is still inside!" ”

Because of Princess Wuyang's noble status, every time she is in Fahua Temple, the women's room no longer entertains others, and now only she and Su Yunlai live.

"What about Miss Su? What about Miss Su who is with Princess Wuyang? Gu Junyan hurriedly asked again.

"Also, I didn't see it." The monk replied with a wincing.

When Gu Junyan heard this, his expression suddenly froze, and he picked up the bucket without hesitation, poured it on himself, and then broke into the fire with a handkerchief covering his mouth and nose.

Li Sheng also wanted to go in, but was stopped by the people around him: "Your Highness, no, no!" His Royal Highness has a noble status, and he can't be suspected of it! The young general has already entered, and with the ability of the young general, he will definitely be able to rescue the princess, so your Royal Highness can rest assured. ”

Li Sheng struggled for a while, intellectually told him that it was right to do this, not to mention that he didn't know martial arts, even if he went in, it would be useless, the five fingers he put on his side slowly closed, he closed his eyes, and finally said in a deep voice: "Quickly let people put out the fire!" Everybody go! ”

For the first time, there was a yin owl in his voice, and even he didn't realize it, it was because of his powerlessness.

Gu Junyan broke into the fire, there was a firelight inside, he followed the direction of his memory to find Princess Wuyang's room, Princess Wuyang was not in the room, he looked around again, and there was no one in the room.

He didn't stay any longer, and went to Su Yunlai's room again, because Princess Wuyang and Su Yunlai had a close relationship, so when Fahua Temple arranged the room, the two of them arranged their rooms together.

There were two fainted figures in Su Yunlai's room, the smoke was too thick, Gu Junyan couldn't see their appearance clearly, he used the tea on the table and splashed it on the faces of the two.

"On fire?" It was Wuyang's voice, and she was awake immediately.

Su Yunlai also woke up, but his head was dizzy, Gu Junyan helped them up, "Quick, let's get out of here first." ”

"Major General!" Su Yunlai exclaimed, and then got up.

Gu Junyan escorted the two of them towards the door, but the door at the door had been sealed by the fire, and Gu Junyan looked around.

Su Yunlai reminded: "The window, I remember that behind the window of the north house is a lotus pond, go from that side." ”

Gu Junyan walked towards the north house without hesitation, but the windows of the north house were also blocked by the fire, Gu Junyan said, "You guys let go." ”

Su Yunlai and Princess Wuyang sideways to dodge, Gu Junyan raised his legs, and with a kick, he kicked the window open, but the splashing window frame swept the back of Gu Junyan's hand, leaving a burning burn mark.

Gu Junyan jumped out first, and then went to pick up Su Yunlai and Princess Wuyang.

Princess Wuyang was about to climb over with her clothes, but the beam suddenly fell, and Su Yunlai quickly pushed Princess Wuyang.

"Princess, be careful!"

Princess Wuyang was pushed from behind by Su Yunlai and pushed out directly, but Su Yunlai himself couldn't dodge and was pressed by the beam of the house.

Gu Junyan was taken aback, and hurriedly went to see Su Yunlai: "Ah Wan! ”

Su Yunlai endured the leg pain, she squeezed out a smile, and said weakly: "I'm afraid I won't be able to get out, so the young general will take the princess and go first." ”

"I'm not going to leave you alone!" Gu Junyan said without hesitation.

Su Yunlai smiled and said: "The young general is kind, I understand in my heart, it's just that I can't leave anymore, so why leave three people, you guys go quickly." ”

Gu Junyan's eyes fell on her face, she was really not good-looking now, she was embarrassed and pale, but she still smiled faintly.

Gu Junyan pursed the corners of his lips, this time he didn't hesitate, he picked up Princess Wuyang and walked out.

Princess Wuyang glanced back at Su Yunlai and opened her mouth to speak, but Gu Junyan pulled her away too fast, so she didn't even have time to say thank you.

Gu Junyan walked out of the wing room with Princess Wuyang all the way, and as soon as she came out, she let go of her hand, casually drew the sword of Li Sheng's guard, and turned around and returned to the sea of fire without hesitation.

"Jun Yan!" Princess Wuyang cried out in a lost voice.

Li Sheng saw Princess Wuyang and hurriedly asked, "What about Miss Su?" Is she in there? ”

Princess Wuyang glanced at him with a complicated expression, and then nodded: "She is inside, she was left inside to save me." ”

Li Sheng was slightly stunned, then looked at her depressed little face, and couldn't help touching her head: "It's okay, it's okay, Jun Yan will rescue her." ”

I don't know if it's to persuade or to tell Wuyang, Li Sheng said repeatedly.

The burning fire, the baking Su Yunlai was dizzy, and gradually lost consciousness, when he was alive, people may have speculated about death because of curiosity, but when he really died, he became very calm.

She didn't think of anything, it seemed like she had never been so quiet, so she could take a break.

"Ah Wan."

Su Yunlai thought that she might be too hot, she actually hallucinated, she heard someone calling her name, she wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids were heavy, she was too hot.

Gu Junyan cut off the beam with his sword, but fortunately, because the beam had become fragile when burning, but a splash of fire fell on the back of Su Yunlai's hand, and the scorching temperature made her can't help but shrink a little.

Gu Junyan stopped his knees and hugged Su Yunlai, Su Yunlai's head rested on Gu Junyan's chest, there was a somewhat disordered heartbeat in his ears, Su Yunlai tried hard to open her eyes, but she was too tired, she wanted to know who he was, she wanted to see him, but she only touched a pair of bony hands.

……

When Su Yunlai woke up, he was already lying in the room.

"Ah Wan! Ah Wan, you're awake! Chen said in surprise.

Su Yunlai raised her head and saw Chen's red and swollen eyes, with tears on her face, she wanted to reach out and help her wipe away her tears, but when she moved, she felt a tingling pain in her hand.

"Ah Wan, don't move, you're injured, you're going to be scared to death!" As Chen spoke, she began to cry again, and she touched Su Yunlai's cheek tightly, with the joy of being lost and regained.

Su Yunlai held her hand with an uninjured hand, and took her little daughter to coquettishly: "Mother, isn't it okay for me?" ”

In fact, the Chen family had a lot of questions in his heart, why did Su Yunlai come to Fahua Temple again, and His Royal Highness the eldest grandson and the young general were there, but because it was her daughter, and her daughter was injured, so she ignored all the doubts, leaving only a mother's worries.

Su Yunlai actually knew that what she did couldn't hide from Chen, but she was willing to give her the greatest trust, maybe Chen was not smart enough or shrewd enough, but she was a good mother.

She can't protect them, and that's okay, she can protect her.

Su Yunlai said coquettishly: "It's okay mother, didn't I wake up?" ”

Su Yunlai has not been coquettish with Chen for a long, long time, she is always very sensible, very obedient, and doesn't worry about anything, although Chen is pleased with her daughter's sensibility, but it is inevitable that she will be a little disappointed in her heart, and now Su Yunlai is coquettish to her, Chen's heart is so soft.

Yes, yes, she is such an unprincipled mother.

Mama Lan walked in, her expression a little not very good: "Madam, Miss, Princess Wuyang is here." ”

Su Yunlai was injured because he came to save Princess Wuyang, so the people around the Chen family didn't have a good impression of Princess Wuyang, even if she was a princess.

Chen frowned slightly, but the princess was noble and could not be neglected, she stood up and went to entertain guests.

Princess Wuyang came to thank her, she looked at Chen and said seriously: "This time it was Miss Su who saved me, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid I would have died, these medicinal materials were prepared by me, please Miss Su take care of her illness, I Wuyang owes her a life." ”

Chen was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Princess Wuyang's attitude to be so low, you must know that she is a princess, the so-called monarch wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, even if Su Yunlai dies in order to save Princess Wuyang, I am afraid that it will be taken for granted, she can say such things with the dignity of a princess, it can be seen that she is not a bully.

Chen's heart was also a little loose: "The princess is polite, this is what should be done, otherwise wouldn't it be a death without help?" ”

Princess Wuyang glanced at Chen, then hesitated, "Can I go and meet her?" ”

Chen thought about it and nodded, if the princess and Su Yunlai could get close, it would also be a good thing for Su Yunlai.

Princess Wuyang walked in and saw Su Yunlai lying on the bed, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Su Yunlai wanted to get up and salute her, but Princess Wuyang turned her head: "Okay, rest, I still don't need you to salute." ”

Su Yunlai knew that Princess Wuyang seemed to have an inexplicable hostility towards her, and was no longer as casual and friendly as when they first met, although she didn't know why, but she could also see it, after all, everyone couldn't like her.

Su Yunlai thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "Is the princess injured?" The smoke that day was too big, and it was not good for the body to inhale it, so it should be seen by the imperial doctor after all. ”

Princess Wuyang frowned a little impatiently: "Why are you nagging like Li Sheng, no wonder you can get along!" ”

Her Royal Highness the princess silently made up her mind in her heart, she already has a nagging brother, but she doesn't want to have another sister-in-law who talks a lot, otherwise can she live this life?

Her Royal Highness the princess is full of drama in her heart, but on the surface, she still looks indifferent.

Su Yunlai smiled bitterly, but Princess Wuyang's gaze was on her hand, and then she pursed the corners of her lips with some annoyance: "The doctor said that your hand may have scars." ”

Su Yunlai was stunned, and then said with a smile: "At that time, I thought I was dead, but now I can still live well, leaving only a scar, think about it, I still earned it." As she spoke, she smiled a little happily, as if she didn't care at all.

Princess Wuyang looked at the indifferent smile on her face, and looked stunned, if it was another girl, I am afraid that she would have already cried and screamed at this time, the woman has a scar on her body, or is there such an obvious part on the back of her hand, even her marriage will be affected in the future, but she can still say that she earned it?

Princess Wuyang thought she was a big-hearted person, but she didn't expect to meet someone bigger than her today, and her mood was very complicated for a while.

"I also know now, why you can still talk to Gu Junyan." Princess Wuyang muttered.

Su Yunlai didn't hear her clearly, so he couldn't help asking, "What did the princess say?" ”

"It's nothing," Princess Wuyang said without changing her face: "Gu Junyan has an ointment that can remove scars, I'll go to him and ask him to send it to you, you don't have to worry about the scars of the injury." ”

Su Yunlai was slightly stunned: "Don't bother the young general, the doctor has already prescribed ointment." ”

"You were injured in order to save me, of course I have to ask you to be responsible for it, you don't have to worry about this matter, since you are fine, I will go back first, you can recuperate with peace of mind, and in the future, I will cover you in the future!" Princess Wuyang decided to take care of herself.

Princess Wuyang thinks that she is a person with clear rewards and punishments, and when Su Yun came to save her, she had to thank her, which was as it should be, so Her Royal Highness the Princess, who had never liked to form gangs very much, made this kind of promise for the first time.

Su Yunlai smiled bitterly: "Then thank you princess." ”

Su Yunlai was a patient after all, and after talking for a while, after drinking the medicine, he was a little sleepy, and Chen walked out and let her rest.

Su Yunlai closed her eyes and rested, but she woke up quickly, and she didn't know why, but she suddenly woke up in her sleep.

Then he saw a man standing in front of his bed.

"Young General, are you addicted to breaking into a woman's boudoir?" Su Yunlai couldn't help but say with some annoyance.

No one wants to open their eyes and see a person standing in front of the bed, no one!

Gu Junyan was silent for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "I only broke through you." ”

That tone, that expression, it seems that Su Yunlai is so ignorant, the young general condescended to come to her room, she was still not satisfied?

Su Yunlai sneered: "So, I also want to thank the young general for looking at him differently?" ”

This irony is obvious, Gu Junyan thought about it, and was a little aggrieved: "I saved you." ”

Isn't it a bit too much to treat a lifesaver like this?

"I saved you too," Su Yunlai said without hesitation: "Twice!" ”

Look, the number wins!

The two of them began to compare each other so naively.

Gu Junyan looked at her face with a gloomy expression, as if he was thinking about something that made him feel embarrassed, and finally he sighed: "Yes, that's you won." ”

There was a bit of indulgence in his tone, which made Su Yunlai a little strange, and before she could think deeply, Gu Junyan suddenly lowered her head and gently touched her injured hand.

"Does it still hurt?" Gu Junyan asked.

He had never asked anyone this question, did it still hurt, he knew it hurt, because he was also burned, but the same injury, on her body, he suddenly felt a little unbearable.

Su Yunlai opened his mouth, looked at his deep eyes, and finally said, "It doesn't hurt." ”

Gu Junyan withdrew his hand and suddenly said, "I'm sorry." ”

Sorry for putting you in a threat again; I'm sorry I didn't protect you well; I'm sorry, if only he could be a little stronger.

Su Yunlai glanced at Gu Junyan suspiciously, I don't know how he could apologize for no reason, obviously he saved her?

No matter how smart Su Yunlai is, she may not be able to understand the man's intentions no matter what.

Gu Junyan had already retracted his gaze and said lightly: "I'm still tracking down the arsonist, so I'll go back first, you can rest first." ”

Gu Junyan left the room quietly, Su Yunlai looked inexplicable, since he was very busy, what were he doing here?

However, after this incident, Su Yunlai asked Mama Lan to pay special attention to the safety of the room, and every window must be locked.

As for whether it is useful or not, then I don't know.

Su Yunlai was injured, so she decided not to go home first and stay in Fahua Temple to recuperate, in fact, the main reason was that Su Zhan was also treated by the ghost doctor in the back mountain, so she had to stay here in order to help Su Zhan cover up people's eyes and ears.

Su Yun doesn't leave, Princess Wuyang doesn't leave, she can't leave her savior and go back alone, right? How can you be so conscienceless!

Then Li Sheng didn't leave either, the reason was bright, he wanted to look at his disobedient sister.

So the officials of the Criminal Department who were in charge of investigating the arson case had to run to Fahua Temple every day, and the poor abbot of Fahua Temple wanted to send these troublesome people away immediately.

On this day, Princess Wuyang was talking in Su Yunlai's room.

"Gu Junyan is really stingy! I went to him to get the ointment, and he told me he was running out! It's just a small belly chicken intestine! It's okay, Ah Wan, I know where his things are locked, and I'll steal them back for you when I get back. Princess Wuyang swore an oath.

Su Yunlai was worried that Princess Wuyang would become the first princess in history to be famous for theft, so she hurriedly stopped: "No, no need, since the young general said that there is no more, there is no such thing as a princess, and the princess doesn't have to worry about this matter." ”

At this time, a girl wearing a blue dress and steady footsteps walked in, she was the big girl next to Princess Wuyang, Xingying also knew some kung fu, and was very valued by Princess Wuyang on weekdays.

"Princess, Grandpa Zhao is here."

Zhao Gonggong is the chief manager of the palace, serving by the emperor's side, since the Fahua Temple set fire, Princess Wuyang almost died in the fire, the emperor was furious, and ordered the criminal department to investigate the matter thoroughly, and the deadline was seven days to solve the case, the people in the criminal department were very busy, but Princess Wuyang did not cooperate at all.

Zhao Gonggong represents the emperor, and Princess Wuyang has to see it.

Duke Wuyang wanted to see Grandpa Zhao, and Su Yunlai was not very suitable to stay, so he returned to the room.

Zhao Gonggong soon walked in, as the most favored eunuch around the emperor, the emperor let Zhao Gonggong come to visit Princess Wuyang itself represents a kind of honor.

The two talked for a long time before Gonggong Zhao left, and Princess Wuyang walked into the room with a look of patient disgust on her face.

Su Yunlai thought of the relationship between Li Sheng and the emperor, and he understood a little.

However, the arsonist has not been found, and rumors have spread in the capital about the relationship between Gu Junyan and Princess Wuyang.

It is said that on the day of the fire, someone saw Gu Junyan personally walking out of the fire with Princess Wuyang in his arms, although it was for a reason, but the woman's name was bigger than the sky, and the two had close contact, which made Princess Wuyang how to marry in the future?

Some people also said that the princess was trapped in the fire at that time, and Gu Junyan broke in regardless of the danger to save people, and this rumor is a little intriguing.

Princess Wuyang grew up with Gu Yanshan, and Gu Junyan are childhood sweethearts, cousins and sisters, the same age, and know the roots, maybe they will really kiss each other?

After all, Li Sheng's life depends on the Gu family.

For a while, the news that Princess Wuyang and Gu Junyan were going to marry was full of wind and rain in the city.

Su Yunlai also knew about the rumors outside, and when she heard these rumors, her brows furrowed fiercely, this matter is someone who is calculating the Gu family! In other words, she is using Princess Wuyang to calculate the Gu family!

If Princess Wuyang marries Gu Junyan, the emperor is afraid that he will not be able to sit still, which is to remind the emperor that the relationship between the Gu family and His Royal Highness the eldest grandson is closer than the emperor imagined.

This is forcing the emperor to attack the Gu family!

Of course, Li Sheng and Gu Junyan also understood this, and the two got together again to figure out a way.

When the family affair between Princess Wuyang and Gu Junyan was rumored from the city, Li Sheng returned to the Eldest Sun Mansion.

Gu Junyan thought thoughtfully: "This time the technique is not like the emperor's style, if it really confirms my marriage with Wuyang, it will not be good for him." ”

Li Sheng's expression did not change, he nodded, and suddenly he looked at Gu Junyan: "But this matter is in a uproar, what is said has a nose and eyes, I have to believe it, and if it continues like this, it will not be very good for Wuyang's reputation." ”

Gu Junyan raised his head and glanced at him: "What do you want to say?" ”

Li Sheng thought for a while, and then said: "Uncle has been choosing a horse for Wuyang, Jun Yan, you grew up with Wuyang, you ......"

"I only treat her as a sister." Gu Junyan said without hesitation, paused, and said: "The emperor is already very jealous of us, and the emperor will definitely not be able to tolerate the marriage between me and Wuyang." ”

Li Sheng looked at him with a resistant expression and sighed slightly, in fact, in his private heart, he also hoped that Wuyang could be with Gu Junyan, in this way, many things would be easy to do, but he knew that Gu Junyan was not at the mercy of others, he was unwilling, so he couldn't force it.

"But it's better to calm down the rumors as soon as possible, if it continues like this, it will be very bad for Wuyang." Gu Junyan said.

Li Sheng nodded.

"I'm afraid that it is a trick by a group of self-proclaimed smart princes, one by one, they have grown up and their minds are bigger, this is forcing the emperor to express his position." Gu Junyan said with a sneer.

Whoever is most beneficial in this matter will do it, and the results are clear at a glance.

Li Sheng was noncommittal, he turned his head and looked out of the window, and suddenly thought of that day, he and Su Yunlai were also looking at each other through the window.
