Two small extras Chapter 29: Flower candles in the cave room
"Are you afraid?" Su Yunlai asked softly.
Gu Qing thought of Xu Tianxing, her eyes softened, she raised her head, looked at Su Yunlai and said, "Mother, are you afraid of marrying your father?" ”
Su Yunlai smiled and touched her head, "At that time, my mother was naturally not afraid, because she recognized this person in her heart." ”
"Then I'm not afraid!" Gu Qing said categorically: "I am Gu Junyan's daughter!" How can you be afraid? ”
Su Yunlai sighed, paused, she took out a box, Gu Qinghao blinked, suddenly thought of something, and her face turned red all of a sudden.
She had heard that on the eve of the wedding, mothers would tell their daughters certain things, which would only happen in the cave room, and she had been curious, but now, was it finally her mother's turn to tell her?
Su Yun looked at her daughter's face and raised her eyebrows: "Qing'er, what are you thinking?" ”
Gu Qing heard this, and immediately looked serious: "No!" Mother, what is this? ”
"This is sent by His Royal Highness Second Highness today." Su Yun said, "He also made people say, he is the son of the abolished queen, and he has attracted much attention recently, if he comes to the wedding banquet, I am afraid it will cause a commotion, so when you get married, he will not come, this is a little bit of his heart, I hope you can accept it." ”
Gu Qing was stunned and pursed the corners of her lips, but did not stretch out her hand.
Li Zheng has done a lot of things and used a lot of scheming, including his injury, in fact, it was all in the calculation, she didn't like his way, but she didn't veto his contribution.
After all, at present, he has not hurt anyone except himself.
"What your father means is that he thinks that you are about to get married now, and he shouldn't show it to you, but my mother thinks that it should not be hidden from you, no matter what, this is the intention of His Royal Highness, you can't accept it, but you should know." After Su Yun finished speaking, there was a slight gloom in his eyes: "Many things, just because you don't know, will cause a lot of misunderstandings, and my mother doesn't want you to be like this." ”
Su Yunlai never knew Xu Guanyi's intentions for her, she didn't even recognize him, she only regarded him as an ordinary colleague of Su Zhan and Gu Junyan, she thought that if she knew his intentions at the beginning, many things would have turned out differently, and she might guide him so that his feelings for her would not be so extreme, and in the end he hurt Gu Junyan and himself.
Therefore, Li Zheng's congratulatory gift, Su Yunlai handed it to Gu Qinghao and asked her to deal with it herself, this is a heart, whether she can accept it or not, she needs to deal with it herself.
Gu Qing sighed faintly, "The second prince is actually a very good person, but he and I are not all the way after all. ”
can't talk about heartbeat, because from the very beginning, she had already denied the possibility of the two in her heart, because his identity was too noble, and because the royal background was too complicated, she didn't dare to approach him, so when she knew his mind, she refused without hesitation.
She has too many concerns, her background, his parents, and his status, she doesn't like or approve of it, but the only thing that can't be denied is his feelings.
Gu Qinghao still took the box, and inside was a pair of jade pendants with dragon and phoenix auspiciousness, from jade quality to carving, it was not ordinary at first glance.
This is also the reason why Su Yunlai is worried, that is, she was born rich and noble since she was a child, and she has seen a lot of wealth, and she was also shocked when she saw this jade pendant, and His Royal Highness used a lot of means for Gu Qing, but his blessing was sincere, and he did not mix it with any calculations.
She didn't know what His Royal Highness's mood was when he gave this gift, such an auspicious gift might be a token of love that he wanted to leave to Gu Qinghao, right? It's just that now this token has become a gift to congratulate her on her new marriage.
The marriage of Xu Tianxing and Gu Qinghao has attracted much attention, after all, it is a marriage between two generations of generals, especially Li Sheng has a preference for Gu Qinghao, and he also sent a lot of makeup to Gu Qinghao to show his favor.
The emperor set an example, and the ministers responded to the call, and began to add makeup to Gu Qinghao one after another, knowing that the General's Mansion was too busy, and asked the people from the Ministry of Rites to help, so although Gu Qinghao's wedding was held in a bit of a hurry, it was not casual, but extraordinarily grand.
Early in the morning, Xu Tianxing came to the General's Mansion with a welcoming team.
Su Yunlai was busy with the wedding, changing Gu Qinghao's clothes, and Su Cheng was still making a mess on the side, pinching Gu Qinghao's sleeves with tears in his eyes.
"Sister, I don't want my sister to go!" Su Cheng said with tears in his eyes.
Gu Qinghao's original nervous mood was teased by him and dissipated a lot, and he pinched the little fat man's face, it felt so good.
Su Cheng pounced directly and hugged Gu Qinghao's waist, Su Cheng was very emotional about this sister who was the only one who stood up to rescue him when he was ordered to lose weight.
Su Yunlai saw Su Cheng with a scoundrel face, and couldn't help but rub the corners of his forehead, her third brother and sister-in-law are not such unreliable people, how could they give birth to such a little demon king in the world?
"Don't mess around, Cheng'er, my sister will get on the sedan chair in a while, you get out of the way."
Su Cheng hugged Gu Qing tightly and didn't let go, but his eyes rolled: "I don't!" Aren't many people putting makeup on their sisters? I also add makeup to my sister! I'm the dowry! It's good if my sister takes me to marry her! ”
Who said the little fat man was stupid? This is not very shrewd, there are often many people who add makeup to Gu Qing these days, but I didn't expect the little fat man to remember it.
Su Yunlai's face darkened, "Ah Xuan, quickly take your brother out." ”
Gu Jingxuan's face was not much better than Su Cheng's, he and Su Yunlai had always had a deep sister-brother relationship, and his feelings were even more uncomfortable than Gu Junyan's, but even Gu Junyan couldn't do anything, and he didn't have anything to object, so the bear child's temper was very short-tempered these days.
"Where's Ah Xuan?" Su Yunlai called again.
Gu Qinghao pursed her lips and smiled: "Mother, you forgot, today he is going to greet guests with his father outside." ”
Gu Jingxuan is also older, Gu Junyan intends to cultivate him, and on a day like today, he naturally wants to follow Gu Junyan.
Su Yunlai patted his head, he was busy and fainted, and soon, the bridal grandmother hurriedly ran over: "Madam, Miss, the sedan chair has arrived!" It's time to get on the sedan car. ”
Su Yunlai finally found Gu Jingxuan, he wanted to carry Su Yunlai on the sedan chair, because he wanted his brother to send the girl out, to show that the woman still had to rely on her mother's house.
Although Gu Jingxuan was only twelve years old, he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he was already stronger and burlier than ordinary teenagers, Gu Qing was good and petite, so he carried her very easily.
Leaning on his younger brother's rather thin shoulder, Gu Qinghao's eyes turned red all of a sudden.
She hugged Gu Jingxuan's shoulders tightly, and suddenly realized in her heart that she was leaving this family and becoming another wife from now on, and even her surname would be given someone else's surname.
"Sister, I will carry you well and I won't fall on you." Gu Jingxuan thought that Gu Qing was worried about falling down, and whispered.
Gu Qing responded and whispered in his ear: "I'm not worried." ”
It's like when I was a child, my sister and brother got together and whispered, worried that the maid would complain when they heard it, so they leaned into each other's ears.
Gu Jingxuan suddenly thought of the intimacy between his sister and brother when he was a child, and he became more and more reluctant in his heart, but he couldn't stop it, he knew that his sister was willing to marry Xu Tianxing, so no matter how reluctant he was, the only thing he could do was to carry her well and send her to the sedan chair.
The red Xipa covered Gu Qinghao's vision, she only saw a pair of feet, stood beside her, and then held her hand.
She knew that it was Xu Tianxing, she left her relatives, left the home where she grew up, just to come to him, the future life is very long, but because of him, she is not so afraid.
Gu Junyan said a few words of advice to Xu Tianxing, this time Gu Junyan had a very good attitude towards Xu Tianxing, and did not frown coldly, probably knowing that his daughter would be left to him to take care of in the future.
Xu Tianxing did not slack off in the slightest, and listened seriously, more serious than when he followed Gu Junyan to practice martial arts in the past.
In the end, he clasped his hands into fists and said solemnly: "Follow your father-in-law's teachings, my son-in-law will definitely treat Qing'er well and never let it down." ”
Gu Junyan's expression softened slightly, and patted him on the shoulder, this man who has been tough all his life finally revealed a trace of softness when facing his beloved daughter getting married.
Gu Qinghao heard the sound from outside, the suona and firecrackers rang out, and she sat in the sedan chair, the sedan chair walked very steadily, but her heart seemed to float in the clouds, she took the sedan chair and walked into his world step by step.
From then on, they will become husband and wife, hand in hand, until the end of the day.
In order to accommodate Xu Guanyi and not being able to leave the house, the two of them were in the Xu Mansion to worship the church, just to let Xu Guanyi come to watch the ceremony, and the guests packed the Xu Mansion to the brim.
Not to mention anything else, how many colleagues Xu Tianxing has in the army, and how many of them have dealings with the Gu family, plus those ministers and officials who want to please Xu Tianxing, Xu Tianxing has always had a cold temperament, but this time he did not refuse to come, regardless of the size of the official position, as long as those who came to watch the ceremony were treated politely, so the whole wedding was very lively.
The generals in the army have always been informal, and they have not restrained themselves at all because the bride is the daughter of General Gu, and they have begun to make all kinds of jokes since the newcomers entered the auditorium.
Gu Qinghao covered Xipa and couldn't help but smile slightly when she heard the sound outside.
The newlyweds began to salute, and with the cry of the bride, she slowly bowed.
Xu Guanyi sat in the position of the high hall, and was saluted by the newcomer, how could he have thought that the little boy who was adopted by a thought back then not only protected him, but now also protects the safety of the entire dynasty.
Now that he can accept the worship of her daughter, he has become Gu Qinghao's relative, and he finally has a trace of bond with that person.
Xu Guanyi smiled at the corner of his mouth, and there was tenderness in his eyes, and the unwillingness and resentment of those years finally gradually dissipated.
When Gu Qinghao stood up, her legs were weak and she almost fell, but a pair of strong arms supported her waist, "Be careful." ”
His deep voice sounded in his ears, Gu Qinghao's heartbeat was slightly chaotic, and he wanted to raise his head to look at him, but there was nothing in front of him except a festive red.
The actions of the two did not hide the eyes of the guests present, and the voices of jokes became more and more.
Gu Qinghao couldn't help but clench the red silk in her hand, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
The little girl's emotions did not hide Xu Tianxing, General Xu was angry, turned his head and said angrily: "Give me a stop meeting!" Otherwise, I'll go back and settle accounts with you! ”
The general doesn't understand the principle of overcoming rigidity with softness, and saying this adds fuel to the fire.
Gu Qinghao seemed to have foreseen the scene of General Xu being beaten in the future, and she gently tugged on Xu Tianxing's sleeve to remind him.
"Ouch, the bride feels sorry for the general!" Someone had sharp eyes and immediately shouted.
Gu Qinghao sighed slightly, if it weren't for the bride's unruly and unlucky unveiling of her hijab in public, she really wanted to help the general go back, and dared to bully her general!
Gu Qinghao was sent to the cave room and couldn't stay to fight side by side with General Xu, the direct consequence was that General Xu was surrounded by a group of people and poured wine, which shows General Xu's excellent popularity on weekdays.
Later, Gu Junyan couldn't stand it, and came out to suppress a group of people who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and finally rescued his son-in-law.
Even so, when Xu Tianxing returned to the cave room, he was dizzy.
He was a little unsteady when he walked, and when he pushed open the door of the cave room, he saw Gu Qinghao sitting quietly on the happy bed waiting for him.
For a moment, he suddenly felt that his otherwise sober mind was immediately drunk.
Xu Tian walked in.
Gu Qinghao heard his footsteps, and walked over slowly, her heart was pounding, and it seemed that there were only two of them left in the whole world, which made her panic.
He lifted the red hijab, under the red candle, her face was like water, and she was out of the ordinary, Gu Qing's good appearance looked like Su Yunlai, naturally she had a good look, his eyes fell on her face, stunned, and she could hardly move away.
Fortunately, under his fiery gaze, Gu Qing couldn't help but blush her cheeks and tilted her head slightly.
"Are you hungry?" Xu Tianxing spoke, his voice hoarse and low.
Gu Qinghao shook her head, "Mama brought me a snack just now, what about you?" After Gu Qing finished asking, he smelled the strong smell of wine on his body, turned his head and raised his voice to call someone in, "Send me the decanting soup I prepared for the general just now." ”
Soon the maid brought the decanting soup up, Xu Tianxing drank it all without saying a word, Gu Qinghao told the maid to go to Zhang Luo to eat, Xu Tianxing sat on the side, watching her busy for herself, with a touch of warmth in her eyes.
Just looking at her, watching her busy in his room, he felt at ease and happy.
When Xu Tianxing finished eating, he just put down his chopsticks, and suddenly there was a commotion outside, which was from the haunted cave room.
Xu Tianxing's face sank suddenly, isn't this adding to the chaos? What are you doing at this time? Net delays!
Several generals in the army who thought they had a good relationship with Xu Tianxing walked in, and when they saw the situation in the house, they smiled.
"Ouch, are we bothering the general?" The one who took the lead was Jia Yuankai, looking at Xu Tianxing with a thief smile on his face.
In the past few days, Xu Tianxing has been in a good mood because he wants to get married, and his temper has become like a ball of dough, Jia Yuankai can't help but get a little carried away.
Gu Qing glanced at Jia Yuankai with a smile, and said with a smile: "Old Jia, if I'm not mistaken, you don't seem to be married yet, right?" ”
Gu Qinghao was in the army back then, and he was very familiar with the generals around Xu Tianxing, and Xu Tianxing and Gu Qinghao's popularity was very good at that time, so everyone didn't have so many scruples when they spoke.
Why do you want to stick a knife in someone's heart? Everyone came out of the trenches, why is he a lot older, even Gu Qinghao, a woman dressed as a man, and a girl who has a deep affection for her at the border pass, but he, a real man, has always been ignored, and he is still a bachelor when he is old.
What's wrong with him not getting married! That's all those girls who don't have vision! Jia Yuankai thought sadly.
"Yes, I'm not married, but a big man, why don't you have a wife? I'm not in a hurry at all. Jia Yuankai pretended to be heroic.
No, he's in a hurry, he also wants to marry a lady, and he wants to love a lady! He just talked casually, pretending to save face!
Gu Qinghao smiled and said, "Since you haven't even married, you dare to be so arrogant, aren't you afraid that when you get married in the future, General Xu won't let you enter the cave room?" ”
Jia Yuankai was immediately dumbfounded, and several colleagues looked at each other, Jia Yuankai already wanted to rest a little, after all, he is the one who wants to marry in the future, General Xu is not easy to mess with, look at the one who did against him before, which one has a good end? He is the one who will give birth to a son in the future, and he must not die too soon.
However, there are also those who have already married, such as Jiang Xiong, he is a general under Xu Tianxing, brave and good at fighting, but he has already married a wife, and he admires Xu Tianxing very much on weekdays.
Xu Tianxing has always been taciturn and has a strained face, but now that he has finally married a wife, the big guys are holding back their strength and want to make a good fuss, of course they will not let go of such a good opportunity, so Jiang Xiong is not discouraged.
"General! This can't be done, today is your wedding, we can't pass it so quietly. Jiang Xiong said with a wicked smile, paused, he looked at Xu Tianxing, and took a glass of wine: "General, you have married a wife, you can't let people say that they are forgetful, we are still brothers, this brother's wine, whether you drink it or not, it all depends on whether you give face!" ”
Xu Tianxing frowned slightly, everyone looked at him, he drank a lot today, and just drank the sobering soup, he could already foresee, if he took this glass of wine, the next would be endless, after drinking this, he couldn't help but drink other people's, so it would be endless, but he still wanted to enter the cave room.
Xu Tianxing was hesitating, how to send people away, and a pair of plain white hands came to the front and took the wine in Xu Tianxing's hand.
Everyone was stunned, and then Jiang Xiong laughed and said, "General, it won't work, right?" Do you want your wife to drink it on your behalf? ”
The lieutenant general laughed loudly, looking at Xu Tianxing's narrow gaze and joking.
Gu Qinghao smiled slightly: "Today is the big day for me and the general, and we will be husband and wife in the future, the so-called husband and wife are one, and I will drink his wine, there is nothing wrong with it, all the soldiers don't have to make such a fuss!" After she finished speaking, she raised her head and poured out the wine in the cup, and then showed the wine glass to everyone, smiling: "Soldiers, please." ”
Everyone looked at each other, Jia Yuankai couldn't help laughing, but shouted loudly: "Okay!" ”
The others glanced at each other and saw that the generous girl in front of them was not only Xu Tianxing's wife, but also Gu Junyan's daughter, these two people, they didn't seem to be able to provoke either of them, just kidding, it would be a bit uncost-effective to put your life on the line.
"Madame, well done! It is worthy of being born and dying with the general! Jiang Xiong hurriedly followed, with a look of admiration.
Gu Qinghao smiled slightly, and said to everyone: "All the soldiers are living and dying together with the general, they are all heroes, I also admire it very much, and I also ask you to fight bravely to kill the enemy in the future, protect the family and defend the country, this cup is my respect for everyone!" ”
Everyone's expressions were a little sneering, Gu Qinghao was reflecting that as soldiers, they were not good at protecting their families and defending the country, but they came to the cave room.
For a while, everyone didn't have the heart to make any trouble anymore, so they left in a hurry, but after this incident, everyone knew that Xu Tianxing was not easy to mess with, and his wife was even more difficult to mess with.
Gu Qing sent people away, turned her head, and met Xu Tianxing's smiling and bright gaze, she inexplicably felt a heat on her face.
is really no matter how tough she is to the outside, when facing him, she will always become the little girl she was back then.
Xu Tianxing walked over slowly, Gu Qing looked at him inexplicably, until, she was hugged by him, she instinctively wanted to resist, but he had already wrapped his arms around her waist and trapped her tightly in front of his chest.
"Qing'er," his warm breath sprinkled in her ears, and the skin around her neck became warm, "Today is the night of candles in our cave room." ”
Gu Qinghao thought about it all of a sudden, his face was flushed, and before she could react, he had already lowered his head and took her lips.
It was something she had never felt before, her mind went blank, she blinked, she seemed to hear the door slammed, and then there was a whirlwind, she instinctively clinged to him, hugged his neck tightly, and ...... It wasn't until her back touched the bed that she came to her senses.
Gu Qinghao opened her eyes and saw Xu Tianxing above her, with a pair of dark eyes full of her appearance at this time.
She grabbed his sleeve a little nervously and muttered, "Tianxing......"
He covered her lips, and the kiss was even hotter than before, burning not only her reason, but also her breath.
Gu Qinghao has never felt like this, it is a feeling that no one else can describe no matter how full of talent and learning, it is as if she has lost something for a long time and suddenly found it back, so that she has never known so surely that her life has been completed, and this is all because of the person in front of her.
Love is a very ethereal thing, before that, she didn't know much, just according to her instinct to approach him, she doesn't understand it now, but she has a more real experience.
She loved him so much.
