Chapter Twenty-Five: Encounter Again
Chapter 25: Meet Again
It was a good night to fall asleep on a rainy night, and Gu Chengcheng slept sweetly all night.
Wake up early the next day, refreshed and in a good mood.
The courtyard outside the window is full of begonia flowers, and the petals are full of crystal raindrops, crumbling.
A pair of milk swallows landed on the begonia flowers, and the crumbling raindrops were instantly fluttering.
The swiftlets flutter their tender wings and decorate the quiet morning.
Looking at the warm picture outside the window, Gu Qingcheng was in a good mood.
After getting up and freshening up, he dressed up as a man.
"Miss, you've already returned to Pingcheng," Zhiruo said, "Why are you still dressed as a man?" ”
"I'm going out to the market today to see the prices of various ingredients, or men's clothing, it's more convenient."
Gu Tingcheng looked in the mirror again and curled the corners of his mouth with satisfaction.
"The second young lady is dressed as a man, and she is also so handsome that she is fascinated by women." Yun Jin grinned.
Looking at the handsome young man in a moon-white shirt and a soft smoke and light veil, no one could help but take a few more looks.
"Do you know where the biggest trading bazaar in Heijo is?" Gu Qingcheng said, "You two go out with me to see the price of ingredients." ”
"Lao Liu, the coachman in our house, he knows where the road is, and he will pull us there." Yunjin Road.
"Okay, then we'll go out as soon as we have breakfast."
After breakfast, Gu Chengcheng took Zhiruo and Yunjin out, there were several coachmen in Gu's house, and Lao Liu was the coachman who went to Taiyuan to pick up Gu Tingcheng.
He didn't dare to slack off, and pulled Gu Qingcheng straight to the most lively trading bazaar.
Gu Qingcheng asked Lao Liu to wait for them in place.
She and Yun Jinzhiruo went separately, asking from store to store about the prices of rice, flour, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, meat, seafood and other bulk goods, and explained that the two girls had to record everything in pen and ink.
and made an appointment to return to the carriage for about two hours to meet.
Gu Tingcheng asked the shops on most of the street, recorded the prices of all the items, and continued to walk forward.
Gu Tingcheng was on the market street, continuing to look at the prices and compare the goods from house to house.
At this time, there was a riot of cars and horses on the street, and people ran to avoid it.
Gu Tingcheng was wondering what had happened?
Suddenly, a long whip flew in the air, Huo Ran wrapped around her waist, and with a strong swing, she flew into the air.
Everything was too fast and unexpected, but in a flash of light, Gu Qingcheng was caught off guard.
Gu Qingcheng's body was flying in the air, her hair scattered and fluttering in the wind.
In the blue sky and white clouds, she is like a fairy descending to earth.
The whip around her waist was suddenly withdrawn again.
A man dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, embroidered with blue moire and sparkling diamonds on the collar, rose from his mount.
One hand caught the hairpin that fell in mid-air, and the other hand caught Gu Tingcheng who landed in the air, and then steadily fell back to the saddle of his snow horse.
The man's facial features are sharpened, the contours are clear, the instruments are lofty, and the handsomeness is upside down.
Holding Gu Tingcheng with one hand, and rubbing Gu Tingcheng's jaw with the other rough hand.
"Little thief, it's not easy to find you. Think that a woman dressed as a man can escape the eyes of the lord? ”
It was him, the outlaw who had kidnapped her that night at the inn!
Gu Qingcheng's heart jumped suddenly:
He knew she stole the Guards Waist Card, so he called her a thief?
"Who are you?" Gu Tingcheng quickly calmed down and pretended not to admit it, "I don't know you!" ”
The man laughed and put her in the saddle, and the two sat close to the snow pony.
"Let's go, take you to meet you!"
Needless to say, his long legs clamped the horse's belly, and the snow horse galloped away.
The shops on both sides of the street kept pulling back, and the man hugged Gu Tingcheng tightly, his mouth was close to Gu Tingcheng's ear, rubbing and exhaling hot air.
"Little thief, the Royal Forest Waist Card is a double-edged sword that will kill you! You dare to grow hair, you dare to steal that thing? ”
"I don't understand what you're talking about? What a Royal Forest Army waist card, I haven't seen it! ”
Gu Qingcheng gritted his teeth and struggled, trying to find an opportunity to jump off the horse and escape, but he was tied tighter.
He bit her ear gently, crispy and numb, exhaling like an orchid, "Don't admit it? ”
Gu Qingcheng tilted his head and dodged hard.
The man took advantage of the situation to lean back against Gu Tingcheng, and Gu Tingcheng involuntarily leaned back and looked at him.
Her eyes are as clear as water, and the rippling waves are full of brilliance, which makes people sink if they are not careful.
The man chuckled in a low voice, and his mouth was close to hers, "It's okay, you just returned to Pingcheng, it's time for dinner, I'll take you to taste Pingcheng's authentic food first." ”
"Put me down, I'm going home!" Gu Qingcheng was angry.
"Ma has lunched, and after eating, I will send you home." The man was resolute and pecked her lightly on the lips.
Gu Tingcheng also practiced self-defense martial arts, and was held by him, but he couldn't show it at all.
She knew that using martial arts in front of him was hitting a stone with an egg.
So he had to let him take him captive.
Yunjin and the others couldn't see her, and they were probably going to die in a hurry.
The man took Gu Chengcheng to a place that was resplendent and comparable to Yuyu Qiong's Tower, and the building was continuous, occupying almost half of Vermilion Bird Street.
Inside, there are singing and dancing, light singing and dancing, beautiful wine, overflowing with wine, and full of guests.
Merchants from the south to the north, dignitaries and nobles from Pingcheng, dancing beauties, wearing exotic costumes, bare-chested and bare-backed, enchanting and charming.
If the guests want to eat, drink, watch the play, and hear about the jokes, they go to the hall on the left and run the hall to greet them warmly.
If you want to find a girl to prostitute and continue to the left, you will be received by Yingying Yanyan and Jiao Jiao.
If you want to see exotic dance music with bare chests and backs, or take pictures of rare treasures to the right of the temple.
There are dignitaries and nobles holding peerless treasures in the auction, and the auction bids are one after another, wave after wave, and it is the most lively here.
If you want to gamble for money, you can continue to walk to the right There is a casino, which is shouting to buy and leave, there is food and drink, and the gamblers are all noble, rich and status-based, and they are by no means comparable to the gambling houses on the street.
This place to eat, drink, and have everything you need has a very nice name.
Gu Qingcheng hurriedly glanced at the four big gold lacquer characters on the plaque:
Heaven and earth.
The man did not enter through the main entrance, but entered directly into a secluded private room through one side door.
Then, he ordered a few authentic dishes from Pingcheng and asked for an altar of aged flower carvings.
In the gap between his orders, Gu Tingcheng put his loose hair back into a bun, pinned the hosta, put on the white gauze hat, and resumed men's clothing.
Meals were served quickly.
The laughter and laughter of the hall outside, the light singing and dancing penetrated into their ears through the cracks in the door.
The man frowned slightly, and went to close the door.
The room was quiet all at once.
The man is tall and majestic, born with an excellent skin, broad shoulders and long legs, and a graceful bearing, which is a natural nobleman.
And his face is extremely handsome, and his facial features seem to be carefully carved, and every inch is just right.
"Eat." The man is like the head of the family, "It's a shame to waste food, and many people outside can't eat it if they want to!" ”
Gu Tingcheng's nurse is not a native of Pingcheng, but she also cooks Pingcheng cuisine.
And the Pingcheng dishes made by the nurse seem to be more authentic and delicious than this splendid restaurant.
After eating a few bites half-pushed and half-pushed, Gu Tingcheng was so excited that he lost his appetite.
"Drinking?" When the man saw her stop chopsticks, he picked up the wine cup and asked.
The man didn't eat much by himself, but he drank the wine one by one, watching Gu Qingcheng eat the food while watching.
Gu Tingcheng shook his head: "I don't know how to drink, I'm going back." ”
The man chuckled, as if listening to a joke.
He dragged her hard past her and sat her in his lap.
She is tall and soft, with snowy skin and bright eyes, moon white light veil, although she is a man's wear, she is elegant and dusty, so handsome that even women admire.
A crisp and fragrant fragrance that lingers around them.
Only then did Gu Tingcheng remember that she had smelled this fragrance on the night of the inn.
On the way, he rescued the noble boy who was wounded by a poison dart and a sword, and he also had the same smell.
Even the masked man who rescued her in the hunting field had this fragrant fragrance.
It's an aroma that no spice can match.
"Long Yanxiang?"
Gu Qingcheng said in his heart that he could distinguish all the spices, and he was the only dragon to extend the fragrance.
Because it is too precious and a rare thing in the court, she can't smell it.
If this person is an ordinary Imperial Forest Army, how can he have such a valuable Long Yanxiang?
Could it be that it was stolen, and it was only because of stealing that it was pursued by officers and soldiers?
Gu Tingcheng's mind was already turning a thousand times in an instant.
The man sniffed at her and said with satisfaction:
“…… Well, the refreshing peach blossom fragrance, as well as a faint medicinal fragrance. It's this smell! ”
Gu Qingcheng pursed his lips, turned his eyes, and ignored him.
The fragrance of peach blossoms on her body is innate, no matter how she takes a bath, she still has the refreshing fragrance of peach blossoms after taking a bath.
And the faint fragrance of medicine comes from her fingers, the aftertaste of the medicine collected all year round.
His voice was rare and gentle, his voice fell into pieces, and the aroma of wine overflowed: "Do you know that I have been looking for you in Pingcheng and Taiyuan for five days?" ”
For that Royal Guards waist card?
What happens if you admit that you stole it? He's being hunted down, and the waist card can be thrown anywhere.
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
"What's your name?" He asked again.
"Zhang Xiulian." Gu Qingcheng lied and even couldn't help but want to laugh, his eyes lowered slightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.
The slightly drooping eyelashes are like a small fan, covering the smile in her eyes.
"It's really called Zhang Xiulian?" The man's eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth turned into a wicked smile.
"Really." Gu Qingcheng's eyes were still lowered, and he didn't dare to look directly.
"Well, Lian'er, that's good!" The man seemed to reluctantly accept her name.
His eyes roll slightly, his lips are very sexy, and when he is slightly upturned, he has a little evil smile, but he is extremely evil and good-looking.
Wickedly, her rough fingers hooked her chin, forcing Gu Qingcheng to meet his eyes.
His fingers ran against her lips.
His hand held the sword and shot arrows for a long time, grinding out a coarse thin callus, rubbing her soft lips, and the crisp and numb touch made Gu Qingcheng's heart tremble.
She turned her head to hide.
He gently turned her back with his big hand.
"Why do you want to be thin on me?" Gu Qingcheng met his eyes.
The black and white eyes are deep and difficult to understand, and the wisdom is condensed under his eyes.
A man like him, even a casual look, can charm a large number of women.
Not to mention that he also has such beautiful thin lips, a high nose bridge and a charming face contour.
"What, don't like it?" The man raised his eyebrows and asked, with a bit of a bad ruffian.
"I'm not a Qinglou woman." Gu Qingcheng frowned, and said aggrievedly: "I am a woman from a good family, I am hugged and hugged by you like this, what kind of system will I become, and how will I marry in the future." ”
"Do you still want to marry someone else?"
The man seemed to have heard a joke again, with an evil smile on his face, showing his white teeth, and gently biting her earlobe:
"You are already my woman, and you dare to marry someone else?"
"Hah, your woman?!" Gu Tingcheng was angry, but laughed.
"We have shared the same bed, see each other in flesh and silk, you are not my woman, who dare to be your woman.
Do you want to hook up with other men? ”
The man took it for granted.
What a domineering bad billet!
"You're not kind to me at all! I saved your life, and that's how you repay your benefactor? ”
Gu Tingcheng's dark eyes flowed, and at this moment, he could only move out of his former kindness, hoping to impress him and let himself go.
"Promising by example is the greatest reward." The man said it with deep affection.
"Mess around!"
Gu Qingcheng had never seen such a cheeky person in his life.
Regret to the extreme.
Regretting that she was kidnapped by him that night, she did not take the opportunity to remind the officers and soldiers when they were rounding the room, which made the officers and soldiers suspicious, but pounced on him to cover his face.
and regretted that he should not have stolen his waist card with the sheep.
She slammed her elbow hard into his chest.
The man was caught off guard, and in pain, she took the opportunity to jump down.
She took out the waist card from her body and threw it on the table, she lied with her eyes open:
"I didn't steal this waist card, you fell on the bed by yourself, and I picked it up for you. I don't owe you any more. ”
Lying is unreasonable after all, she frowned slightly.
Now that she has the gold medals of her ancestor and aunt, she has successfully entered the palace and given the dragon head hairpin to Feng Zuo Zhaoyi.
This Imperial Guards waist card is no longer of much use to her.
returned his waist card, and he was relieved at the moment.
The man touched his head and smiled crookedly.
"The little thing with a sharp mouth! I thought you were going to keep pretending. ”
Gu Qingcheng saw him smiling happily, and she quickly smiled.
"Your Excellency is at your own convenience, and the little woman is out of company." She said hurriedly.
took the opportunity to turn around and quickly slipped out.
Suddenly felt a flower in front of him, but returned to his arms.
Gu Qingcheng pursed his lips in disappointment, wanting to cry without tears.
"I don't want this waist card."
The man said lazily, a bit of a scoundrel.
Slightly lifted her collar and put the waist tag back into the close-fitting body of Allure.
touched Gu Qingcheng's soft chest, and the corners of his mouth curled.
The voice was cold, with a hint of playfulness:
"I took your jade jue, and you took my waist card. You and I have exchanged love tokens, and we should make a private agreement for life. ”
His lips were printed on her mouth again.
"Cheeky guy!"
Gu Qingcheng was extremely embarrassed, and his face turned crimson.
When he reached out to push him away, the door of the private room was pushed open.
The man's close guard walked in and said excitedly, "The ...... of the palace"
Before he could say anything, the man glanced at him, "What?" You idiot, you really don't have any brains? ”
"Palace-" The man glanced at Gu Qingcheng in his master's arms, with a sneer, as if he had swallowed something, bowed down and said respectfully: "General, the person has been caught!" ”
His guards seemed to be not only powerful, but also highly martial.
With such a guard, how could he be hunted down so embarrassed in the first place.
No, it should be a hunt!
"General Dian?"
Gu Qingcheng said in his heart, he is indeed the general of the Royal Forest Army.
Surname Temple? Which lay? Is there a surname in this world? Maybe she's really a loner.
Remember to ask Li Yi then.
"Good! That's great! Today's double happiness is coming. The man was very excited, threw away the wine cup, and dragged Gu Qingcheng up, "Let's go, take you to see the interrogator." ”
Gu Qingcheng didn't know what he meant by Double Happiness, but she knew that Zhiruo and they must have been waiting anxiously to death.
"I'm going back, I don't have time to go with you to see any interrogators." Gu Qingcheng turned around and wanted to slip away by himself.
The man held her tightly, and his tone was cold: "Don't you listen to your own man's words? ”
"What kind of man of your own, I have never seen a scoundrel like you in the world!" Gu Qingcheng glared at him fiercely and scolded in a low voice.
The man looked at her slightly disgusted face and was even more happy.
"Fried little wildcat!" The man had a dead charm mixed with a scoundrel's laugh, and kissed her fiercely.
Perhaps because of the years of fighting, the wind and sand made him too thick-skinned, and there was no half of embarrassment in his smile.
His firm eyes did not allow Gu Qingcheng to resist for a moment.
