Chapter 233: The Return of Glory

Gu Chengcheng came back from Taiheng Mountain, Tuoba Ling saw her outside the door of the imperial study, and Chengcheng wanted to go back to rest in order to avoid the entanglement of Liu Ziye and Tuoba Yu. Ｘ

Tuoba Ling saw that Gu Qingcheng was safe and sound, so he pulled Gu Qing to catch a rabbit for her, and missed the parting banquet in Yuxiu Palace.

After coming back, he knew that Gu Tingcheng would leave the palace tomorrow, and Tuoba Ling took Gu Tingcheng to Bixia Palace to stay for one night in the evening, and the two talked at night......

There is a golden wire cage in Tuobaling's dormitory, and in the cage is a cute little white rabbit.

It was the rabbit that Gu Qing caught for her during the day.

At that time, Gu Qing was reluctant, but Tuoba Ling said that she would be a gift in a few days, and asked Gu Qing to catch a white rabbit and give it to her.

Of course, the white rabbit that Tuoba Ling wanted must not be damaged in any way, and must be alive and kicking.

Gu Qing had to take iron balls and fishing nets and go to the suburbs with Tuoba Ling.

He tied the iron ball to a few corners of the fishing net, threw the net when he saw the rabbit, and finally caught the cute white rabbit alive intact.

Tuoba Ling was naturally overjoyed to see the cute white rabbit.

When Gu Qing wanted to catch one more and go back to Gu Qingcheng, the rabbit was already frightened and fled into the forest.

He had no choice but to go back.

As soon as Tuoba Ling and Gu Tingcheng entered the dormitory, they pulled Gu Tingcheng to look at her rabbit.

Tuoba Ling smiled and said: "Allure, take a look, this is the rabbit that Gu Qing caught for me, isn't it cute?" ”

"Hmmm! It's so cute, as cute as Ling'er. Gu Qingcheng teased the white rabbit in the golden wire cage.

Tuoba Ling carefully fed the little white rabbit and handed the rabbit a carrot to eat.

That's the love house and the black.

Gu Qingcheng looked at Tuoba Ling, who took good care of the little white rabbit, and said with a smile: "Looking at Ling'er's spring breeze, it seems that my eldest brother has protected the princess very well in the past few days." ”

"Hee-hee-hee...... It's quite competent. Tuoba nodded happily.

"It's not just competent, right?" Gu Qingcheng touched the little white rabbit and said, "The princess's guards catch rabbits for you, that's not their duty." ”

Tuoba Ling's face was shy, but he still smiled happily.

After feeding the rabbits, I went to bed with Gu Tingcheng.

"Allure, I heard that you and An Lingtina and Li Shuang'er are sisters, and King Dunqiu also holds a worship ceremony for you?"

"Yes." Gu Qingcheng nodded lightly.

Tuoba Ling pursed his lips with regret and said:

"I really envy them, I can worship with you, but it's a pity that I'm a princess, I can't worship with people casually, otherwise I will definitely marry you in Jinlan."

"Princess, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, not vanity. Worship is just a ritual, and true friendship is a tacit heart. Gu Qingcheng said.

She has always felt that true friendship is not to be publicized, it is to trust each other, and when the crisis comes, it is possible to stick a knife in each other's ribs, and everything is tacit.

"However, I still want to bow down to Allure." Tuoba Ling leaned beside Gu Qingcheng and pouted softly.

Gu Tingcheng remembered the little phoenix in his dream, and said softly: "Whether I worship Ling'er or not, we are all good friends and sisters." ”

"Yes, Allure, even if we don't worship, we are sisters." Tuoba Ling happily put his arms around her neck and said.

"Princess, when the time comes, you must go to the wedding ceremony between Allure and Sister Tina and Sister Shuang'er." Gu Tingcheng Road.

"Allure rest assured, this son likes to have fun so much, and on such a lively occasion, how can he get this princess. Your wedding ceremony, this princess will definitely arrive. Tuoba Ling said briskly.

After a pause, Tuoba Ling said, "Your worship ceremony is still early, behind my ceremony." Allure has to rush back to help Ling'er host the banquet! ”

"Ling'er rest assured, Allure will not forget." Gu Tingcheng patted her face.

The next day, Gu Qingcheng was going to review the mansion with Gu Qing.

Mu Cheng was ordered to send Li Yi with twenty Royal Forest Army.

The old ancestor was worried that it would not be decent enough for Allure to return to the Gu Mansion, so he ordered the palace attendants to go back with the county lord of Anping with large bags and small bags of various gifts.

Tuoba Ling was also sent to the palace gate.

In addition to Gu Qingcheng, she was reluctant to Gu Qing.

Looking at Gu Qing, who was smiling, Tuoba Ling pouted and said, "Gu Qing, you have a straight face on weekdays, just like this princess owes you a love debt in her last life." Now that she is leaving this princess, she is like a boiled dog's head, are you so happy?! ”

"I can get out of your clutches, of course, the sky is high and the sea is wide." Gu Qing did not deny that he was happy to be separated from Tuoba Ling.

Tuoba was so angry that he grabbed his chest and whispered: "Gu Qing, don't you know how to lift!" ”

Gu Qing lowered her eyes and looked at Tuoba Ling coldly: "If the princess feels that her humble position is not satisfactory, she can resign from her humble position." ”

Tuoba Ling gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Qing for a long time.

Finally, let go of him with a smile on her face.

whispered in his ear: "If you don't come to provoke the law, you will never be able to escape from the palm of this princess." ”

"I've never seen anyone as cheeky as you." Gu Qing muttered lowly.

Looking at the hippie smiling Tuoba Ling, he really couldn't help it.

"Okay, you two flirt, let's look at the occasion too." Gu Qingcheng walked over and said in a low voice.

Tuoba Ling still has a hippie smile.

Gu Qing blushed and muttered in a low voice: "Who flirted with her!" ”

"Allure, some people really don't get together." Li Yi said beside Gu Tingcheng, "You can't worry about it." ”

Tuoba Ling's smile looked a little embarrassed and shy.

Gu Tingcheng also chuckled and said: "Brother Li's brother, Dr. Li Fu, is very knowledgeable, Brother Li is familiar with his ears and eyes, and he is also literary and martial, and your opinions are self-righteous words. ”

Gu Qing and Gu Qingcheng together, took the Feihong Feiyan that outsiders thought was a reward from the ancestors, as well as gifts from the palace, Li Yi and the Imperial Forest Army, and left the palace in a mighty way.

Tuoba Han and Yi Hun had already received when Gu Tingcheng would leave the palace, and gathered a large number of killers waiting for the way to go through Gu Tingcheng's review mansion......

Batu, who was covered with his face, was ambushed on the road with a killer, and he wanted to ambush him halfway, but he didn't expect that Gu Chengcheng would be escorted by Li Yi with twenty royal forest soldiers when he left the palace.

Weighing the pros and cons, he was worried that he would not be able to annihilate the Imperial Forest Army in one fell swoop, and he also exposed the king of Dongping.

had to temporarily cancel the operation and retreat temporarily, so as not to implicate the king of Dongping.

Although Gu Qingcheng is only a county lord, he enjoys the princess and is better than any princess in the eyes of the ancestors, especially those noble women who have returned to their hometowns.

With such a grand send-off of Gu Chengcheng returning home, Gu Zhongnian naturally took the mansion out to greet him.

Of course, except for Liu Rushuang, who was injured in bed.

The neighbors also rushed out to watch when they saw the Royal Forest Army and the carriages and horses in the palace sending each other off.

Gu Zhongnian's face was glorious, several aunts smiled, Gu Chuyao and Gu Xinyao had cold faces, and Gu Leyao smiled innocently.

As soon as he got out of the carriage, Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but sigh with emotion, just looking back at the mansion and now reviewing the mansion, but there is a difference between the abyss.

It can be seen that the position of power is important.

The palace attendants carried the gifts into the mansion one after another.

Gu Zhongnian, Li Yi and the other Imperial Forest Army greeted politely: "Thank you for your hard work, Deputy Commander Li and the generals." ”

Because of Gu Zhongnian and his wife's abuse of Gu Qingcheng, Li Yi didn't like Gu Zhongnian.

Li Yi looked at Gu Zhongnian, and although he gave it up, he said lukewarmly: "How can it be hard to send the county lord of Anping back to his house under the order." ”

"Deputy Commander Li, please come in quickly, and go to the cold house for a cup of tea." Gu Zhongnian said politely again.

"Master Gu doesn't have to be polite, he will send the county lord of Anping back in the end, and he will return to the palace to resume his life." Li Yi said again.

"Oh, that's right. The effort of a cup of tea does not delay Vice Commander Li's time. Gu Zhongnian was still a polite invitation.

Li Yi stretched out his hand to stop, and raised his hand into the air to show his respect for His Majesty, and said: "Your Majesty's dictation, the Anping County Lord reviews the mansion, if there is any damage, only the Gu Mansion is asked." ”

Li Yi, who was the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, passed His Majesty's dictation to Gu Zhongnian.

Gu Zhongnian nodded in fright, promising to take good care of his daughter Allure.

"Please return to Your Majesty, Deputy Commander Li, the county lord of Anping is the daughter of Weichen, Weichen has always regarded it as a pearl in the palm of his hand, and will never let the county lord of Anping suffer any damage, please rest assured that Your Majesty and the ancestors."

Li Yi's expression was detached, and he said in his heart: If you really regard it as a pearl in your hand, you won't leave Allure in the countryside all the time!

Tunnel said coldly: "I hope Lord Gu will do what he says!" ”

said goodbye to Gu Tingcheng again, and left with the Imperial Forest Army and the palace attendants.

Gu Zhongnian cautiously bid farewell to the Imperial Forest Army in the palace, and Gu Zhongnian led his family to welcome Gu Chengcheng back home.

Gu Qingcheng raised his eyes to look at the maids and servants in the mansion who greeted him, why didn't he see Zhiruo and Yunjin?

Could it be that if these few are gone, those two girls will not be close to themselves?

She stepped on the steps of the Gu Mansion, and Feihong Feiyan supported her.

"I can go." Gu Qingcheng said in a low voice.

"County master, this is a slave's business." Fei Hong laughed.

Gu Qingcheng knew that the more they respected themselves and the more they respected their status, the more the people in the Gu Mansion did not dare to underestimate them.

But she doesn't care if they look down on them or not.

Gu Chuyao, who was reluctant to greet Gu Tingcheng, and his two younger sisters, as soon as they entered the mansion, they didn't want to see Gu Tingcheng, so they hurriedly went back to Liu Rushuang's room to report.

Gu Leyao deliberately looked at Gu Qingcheng and was reluctant to leave, and was forcibly pulled away by the angry Gu Xinyao.

Entering the mansion, Gu Zhongnian hurriedly asked the servant to kowtow to the county lord of Anping.

Fang was at the gate of the mansion, and when he didn't see Zhiruo and Yunjin to greet him, Gu Qingcheng felt strange.

Gu Qingcheng raised his eyes to look for it, but there was still no Zhiruo and Yunjin among these girls.

Gu Qingcheng muttered secretly, all the servants have come out, where have they gone?

There was a sudden sense of foreboding.

Just as he was about to ask his father, Gu Zhongnian ordered his aunts to salute the lord of Anping County.

When Gu Zhongnian wanted to find his other daughters, he saw that Gu Chuyao and the others were gone, and he was secretly annoyed in his heart.

"Allure is a junior, since Allure has seen a few aunts, how can you let the aunts salute Allure......" Gu Chengcheng blessed his several aunts to salute.

"Oops...... Don't dare to be a ......"

Several aunts were so frightened that they hurriedly stopped Gu Qingcheng.

The second aunt said with trepidation: "The county lord is noble, we are just the concubines of the master, and this etiquette is inevitable." ”

Gu Zhongnian has the style of the head of the family: "The status of the concubine is already low, and now that the city is the lord of Anping, it is natural that they should salute the lord of Anping." ”

Gu Qingcheng looked at Gu Zhongnian and smiled: Father is really good at seeing the wind and rudder.

"Right...... It's we who want to give a salute to the Lord of Anping County......" The aunts hurriedly said and saluted Gu Tingcheng: "I have seen the Lord of Anping County......"

Gu Tingcheng was at the gate of the mansion, and he had already seen that there was an extra woman about twenty years old, with gorgeous clothes, enchanting appearance, and a plump figure.

Gu Qing had already seen the fifth aunt, but only Gu Qingcheng had never seen her.

Gu Zhongnian saw Gu Qingcheng looking at the woman and smiled.

Then he introduced: "Allure, this is your fifth aunt." The fifth aunt's maiden name is Xiao Hongyu, and she used to be a smash hit in the theater troupe. ”

The fifth aunt, Xiao Hongyu, saluted again: "Lord Anping, Hongyu is polite. ”

The five aunts looked forward to it, and when they spoke and acted, they all revealed the brilliance of Hua Dan's recitation and work.

Gu Qingcheng was a little stunned, and glanced at the expressionless eldest brother next to him.

replied: "The fifth aunt has already done the salute, so there is no need to be polite." ”

The fifth aunt was quick with her eyes, and immediately supported Gu Qingcheng: "This is what the concubine should be." ”

At this time, Gu Zhongnian looked at Gu Tingcheng and said with Yourong: "Allure, you not only ask Your Majesty to release the slaves, but also give medicine and medicine, and provide relief to refugees, and give porridge and medicine." Now the whole Great Wei is praising your deeds, and there is light on the face of the father! ”

The second aunt also lowered her eyes and said happily: "That's right, the people are praising our Anping county lord everywhere, and we, the aunts, are also following the light." ”

"Yes, yes, when we go out in Gufu, others are very respectful." The third aunt also said complacently.

"It's been a long time since we've had such a celebration in our house." The fourth aunt also talked about it happily.

Fifth Aunt Xiao Hongyu also carefully observed Gu Tingcheng, and her face was solemn:

"I didn't expect that the county lord of Anping is young, not only beautiful and intelligent, but also kind-hearted, which is really a blessing for our Gu Mansion."

"Okay, don't boast about the aunts, it's all within your power, it's nothing." Gu Qingcheng said with a smile.

After a few words of greeting, Gu Zhongnian left Gu Qingcheng, left the main hall, and hurriedly walked to Liu Rushuang's room.

The hall is stacked with gifts such as clothing, silk, gold, silver, and jewelry brought back from the palace.

Gu Qingcheng groaned slightly, and personally picked out some jewelry and put them in several jewelry boxes.

Then let Feihong Feiyan take those silk, gold and silver, and make several gifts for his father and several aunts.

Several aunts received generous gifts from Gu Tingcheng, so they were naturally very grateful.

even felt that Gu Qingcheng was all-encompassing, and he did not look down on them because he was promoted to the county lord of Anping.

Several aunts like Gu Qingcheng in their hearts.

The second aunt and the new fifth aunt Xiao Hongyu like Gu Qingcheng even more.

And every man in the house has a reward.

Gu Tingcheng didn't want to give gifts to Liu Rushuang's mother and daughter, knowing that giving them would not please them, and would only cause anger and resentment.

But think about it, since everyone in the house has gifts, let the servants in the house give them to Liu Rushuang and her daughters.

The second aunt talked to Gu Tingcheng, and kept lowering her eyes, but her eyes didn't dare to look at Gu Tingcheng.

She felt ashamed in her heart, and promised to take good care of Zhiruo and Yunjin.

Helplessly, within a few days, Liu Rushuang helped the master marry the fifth aunt and took back the power of the house.

She had to watch as Madame beat the two girls and put them in the dungeon.

It was because she knew that after Yihun kidnapped the two girls, she was afraid and guilty, but she was soft-spoken, and sighed in vain.

After Gu Qingcheng distributed the gifts, he still didn't see Zhiruo and Yunjin.

All the servants and girls in the house have seen the ceremony, why haven't they seen those two girls, she feels even more inappropriate, and she is suspicious.

Take Feihong Feiyan back to the West Chamber first.

Steward Li had already ordered someone to help her take her luggage back to the West Chamber, and ordered someone to quickly clean up the room again.

When Gu Qingcheng returned to the room, the servant girl had not finished cleaning up, and there were many places still covered with dust.

The huge Shangshu Langzhong Mansion has countless servants and girls, and no one has cleaned up her room.

She walked to Zhiruo and Yunjin's room and gently wiped the table, the dust on the table was thicker.

Could it be that Zhiruo and Yunjin really had an accident?

She found Steward Li, and after asking, she found out that she left the Gu Mansion and entered the palace, and soon she was the head of the Liu family.

It can be imagined how much Liu Rushuang hates herself, so she didn't let the girl help clean up her room.

She stared at Steward Li tightly, and asked again, "Steward Li, what about Zhiruo and Yunjin?" ”

Steward Li just replied, and kept bending over, his eyes drooping, and he didn't dare to look directly at the county lord of Anping.

Zhi Ruoyun and Jin are in the hands of the general of the Che Cavalry, and I am afraid that they are already fierce and unlucky at this moment.

If the county lord of Anping knew that he was in cahoots with his wife, he would not be able to eat and walk around.

Steward Li's panicked eyes had already been smoothed out.

When I raised my eyes again, I was already very calm.

smiled and said to Gu Qingcheng: "Those two girls were sent by their wife to Qinzhou to pick up the old lady, and they estimated that they would be able to come back in these two days." ”

“…… Is it? Gu Qingcheng stared at Steward Li suspiciously.

Steward Li nodded.

Then he smiled and said: "Lord Anping, if you don't have other instructions, the little one will go and get busy first." The lord instructed that he should prepare a good dinner party in the evening to catch the wind and wash the dust for the county lord. ”

Gu Qingcheng nodded silently, and Steward Li went out.

Steward Li is more cautious and subtle than before, is it because he is already the lord of Anping?
