Chapter Seventy-Two: The Coward Who Suddenly Became Cowardly
Gu Zijiu didn't stay in Jiang Jiuyuan's Mansion for a long time.
Because Jiang Jiuyuan lied to her.
Saying that he was too hungry and wanted to go back to the house first, and that the cook in the house had already prepared snacks, were all excuses. Although Jiang Jiuyuan didn't say it explicitly, Gu Zijiu, who had a big brain, still linked everything with Su Chaowei.
Although she was very concerned about the fact that there was no dim sum in the house, she had always been a very open person, so she quickly forgave Jiang Jiuyuan unilaterally.
After all, Jiang Jiuyuan is also his benefactor, and being deceived once for the happiness of his benefactor or something, Gu Zijiu also feels reasonable.
So as soon as she got home, she said hello to Ah Fu, and then ran to the kitchen with a familiar car, seemingly ready to prepare a snack.
Seeing that Jiang Jiuyuan didn't react to Gu Zijiu's behavior, and even ordered Ah Fu to listen to her orders, Ah Fu stayed where he was, thinking for a long time, a little dazed.
"What the hell does our prince think, it's all at this time, do you still trust Miss Zijiu so much?"
Just when Ah Fu was in a daze, Fu Bei and Fu Nan, who sighed, came to his side, patted one shoulder with one hand, looked at the direction where Gu Zijiu was going, and invariably showed a worried expression.
Although Ah Fu didn't know much about it, he obviously saw the jealousy on Fu Bei and Fu Nan's faces.
"Miss Zidove...... What's wrong? ”
Fu Nan sighed again, patted Ah Fu's shoulder, and said, "We can really recruit an ancestor." ”
Fu Bei also sighed: "Yes, how can it be good in the future." ”
As he spoke, the two sighed at the same time, patted Ah Fu's shoulder again, and walked in the direction of Gu Zijiu.
It seems that he has received Jiang Jiuyuan's orders like Ah Fu, and he obeys Gu Zijiu's orders at any time.
Ah Fu, who didn't understand it since just now: "......"
Ah Fu, who didn't know Gu Zijiu's terrible identity and was still thinking about Fu Bei and Fu Nan's words alone, stared at the back of the two leaving, looking even more dazed than at the beginning.
The fact that Gu Zijiu is the head of the Gu family is only known to Fu Bei and Fu Nan in the palace, and even the Twelve Divisions only knew her true identity when they went to encircle and suppress the Demon Sect under Jiang Jiuyuan's order.
Compared with the shock of Fu Bei and Fu Nan, the people of the Twelve Divisions were much calmer.
After all, he has always spoken with strength, and being able to get along well with the head of the Gu family is also a good thing for the Twelve Divisions.
And Jiang Jiuyuan himself didn't care about Gu Zijiu's true identity at all, what attitude he had towards her before, and what attitude he still has now.
Looking at it this way, it seems that Fu Bei and Fu Bei are stingy.
"Isn't the prince okay?"
Gu Zijiu, who didn't know what Fu Bei and Fu Nan were thinking, was satisfied with the dim sum and planned to go to the study to find Jiang Jiuyuan, and then took it for granted and was rejected.
Gu Zijiu, who knew that the study could not be entered casually, was not annoyed, and sat at the door of the study with his hands on his cheeks, looking at the two people standing next to him on the left and right, and said, "What are you two nervous about from the beginning?" ”
When Fu Bei and Fu Nan heard this, they pinched their swords even more nervously and did not speak.
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
Seeing that the two of them still looked nervous, and even after hearing their own voices, the expression was as if they had heard something scared, Gu Zijiu stood up quite curiously, patted the dust on his body, raised his eyebrows, and was about to continue asking, but in the next second, he heard footsteps slowly approaching behind him.
"Of course, it's because I'm afraid of your identity."
This voice has a natural coldness, and it is also very easy to recognize, Fu Bei and Fu Nan, who were very nervous from the beginning, nodded respectfully after hearing this voice.
Gu Zijiu turned his head to look, and his puzzled eyes instantly changed when he touched the visitor, and he raised his hand happily and waved.
"Jiang Chen? Oops, you're here at the bottom of the lake? ”
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, lifted the medicine box on his shoulder, and did not show too much expression, but Jiang Li behind him, although he came to visit with Jiang Chen, but when he really saw Gu Zijiu, he suddenly became very nervous, and he even hid behind Jiang Chen, only revealing a pair of eyes, looking secretly.
Gu Zijiu raised his head slightly, and wanted to ask Jiang Li about the reason for his strange behavior, but as soon as Jiang Li saw that he was looking at him, he looked like he was about to be frightened crazy, pulled Jiang Chen's sleeve, and made a bird-like appearance.
Gu Zijiu tried several times, and when he saw that Jiang Li was about to cry, he stopped his movements and glanced at him speechlessly.
Jiang Chen was obviously speechless at the suddenly timid Jiang Li, he carried the medicine box in one hand, and took the opportunity to pull Jiang Li out of his back with the other.
Jiang Li, who had nowhere to hide, trembled twice, looked at Gu Zijiu, who was looking at him with a threatening gaze, couldn't help but rub his arms, pulled a smile, and said, "I heard that you are back, so ...... So wanted to come and see you. ”
Gu Zijiu was speechless and said, "Then you come to see me and look at me, why do you still look like I will do you?" ”
As she spoke, she trotted over quickly, put her arms around Jiang Li's shoulders, and pressed him down with a good look.
In fact, this was not a big problem before, Gu Zijiu often ran around when he was the maid of the Jinwang Mansion, even in the palace, he followed him several times, so he was familiar with Jiangli, and he often did some harmless pranks with Jiangli on weekdays.
It's just that now, Jiang Li seemed to be avoiding something, and hurriedly took a few steps back.
In this way, Rao is as dull as Gu Zijiu, and he also discovered that something was wrong in Jiangli. She looked at Jiang Chen, who had been staying aside and did not speak, and glanced at him with inquiring eyes.
"Didn't I say it, your identity is no longer a big secret, not only the people of the Twelve Divisions will doubt you, but even your father will be jealous of you because of this."
Jiang Chen fiddled with the medicine box, lowered his eyes, and said, "Now that you are acting in such a high-profile manner, even the fifth brother can no longer protect you as before." ”
Gu Zijiu let out an "oh" and expressed his understanding: "My Gu family has provoked a lot of enemies, although I naturally have the ability to protect myself, but people who have a good relationship with me may not also have the ability to save their lives. ”
Jiang Chen nodded and said, "That's the truth." ”
Gu Zijiu saw that Jiang Chen agreed to his words, so he looked at Jiang Li with a smile, and saw the embarrassed expression he put on after being told what was going on, and he even felt a little funny.
"At the bottom of the lake, I really didn't see it before, you actually spare your life so much?"
Jiang Li was even more embarrassed by Gu Zijiu's ridiculous tone, he even knew where to look, so he had to cough twice in disguise, and then he grabbed his hair and tried to explain: "It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's just your identity...... In the end, it will be given to me...... It will cause trouble for the fifth brother. ”
"You also know, now the situation is not very stable, the prince is in power, but it is unexpected, although the fifth brother has made it clear that he will never participate, but those important ministers in the court, and the common people, are quite favorable to the fifth brother, and now if the Gu family is involved, I am afraid that the princelings will take advantage of this to retaliate......"
Gu Zijiu stretched his muscles, obviously sneering at Jiang Li's worries: "Lord Wang, he is already in the center of power, even if there is no me, he will not have any leisurely life." ”
Pulling the twisted Jiangli back, Gu Zijiu yawned and explained: "Although our Gu family has always been at odds with the imperial court, we have always been at odds with the river water, even if the prince's party really wants to use us to suppress the prince, then do you think we are really willing to act as a pawn of the prince?" ”
"This ......
"At the bottom of the lake, do you think that the people in my Gu family are vegetarians? Faced with the anger of being used, willing to swallow it for yourself without revenge? ”
Jiang Li didn't know much about the rest of the Gu family, but one Gu Xiang had already encompassed most of the Gu family's personalities.
Thinking of Gu Xiang's reputation in the rivers and lakes, Jiang Li swallowed a mouthful of saliva in fear.
"These things are not big things for me that need to be deliberately recorded, what you have been worried about from before to now are some things that may happen, instead of being so tired every day, it is better to live a more practical life, worry about this and worry about that every day, how do you live this day?"
When Jiang Chen heard this, he also laughed, shook his head, and said, "Chirp is chic, but we can't do it at all." Many relationships are complicated, and if you are not careful, you will fall to the ground, and even implicate other people, and you may not care about your own life, but if you implicate other people......"
Gu Zijiu was not in the mood to listen to Jiang Chen's remarks, in fact, Jiang Jiuyuan had said these things, the people of the Twelve Divisions had said them, and almost everyone she knew who was in the center of imperial power had said them.
These helplessness, those helplessness, piled up together, become more and more careful.
The style of conduct is not good at all.
Gu Zijiu actually doesn't like to associate with such people. Scheming, the city government is deep, and every day she thinks about how to calculate people's hearts, she didn't like this atmosphere before, and she doesn't like it now.
She stretched her waist, looked at the sky and blue sky, and said lightly: "Anyway, I only live for what I want in my heart, whether it is making friends or fighting, I don't care what the consequences are, I can only live for one lifetime, but I don't regret it before I die." And I also believe that the people around me will not stop because they are worried about the future. ”
Jiang Chen looked at Gu Zijiu in a daze, and after a long time, he hooked the corners of his lips, lowered his head, and laughed for a long time.
"That's what the chirp said."
Jiang Li also looked at her blankly, although he felt that there was always something strange in Gu Zijiu's words, but excluding this, Jiang Li was still surging in his heart by what she said.
Yes, people live for a lifetime, isn't it just to be with friends, have no unnecessary troubles, and live a life in style?
Although they are now clothed and fed, it seems that they lack nothing, but they are just trying their best every day, and in the end, what they have and what they have lost, is it worth it.
What are they doing so tired?
Like Gu Zijiu, he does whatever he wants, he gets angry when he can't get used to it, and he becomes a friend when he talks well, no matter the past or future, no matter what happens, he is optimistic and upbeat, which is really like a piece of jade, very precious.
Jiang Li was also amused by Gu Zijiu's arrogant words, and after he laughed, he couldn't help but say: "I know why the Gu family is getting worse and worse year by year, and the head of their family is such a grumpy master." ”
Jiang Li was told by Gu Zijiu, and half of the boredom in his heart was gone, and the embarrassment he felt towards Gu Zijiu disappeared in an instant, and he returned to his previous attitude, and his expression was much more natural.
"But speaking of which, I've always been curious, did Gu Xiangzhi get your order when he smashed the Demon Sect?"
Gu Zijiu frowned and thought for a while, shook his head, and said indifferently: "I didn't have time to give this kind of order, eighty percent of that thing was not in a good mood that day." ”
"...... because you're in a bad mood, so you went to the Demon Sect for a spin?" Following Gu Zijiu's words, Jiang Li twitched the corners of her mouth and continued according to her thoughts.
Gu Zijiu nodded.
Seeing Jiang Li's surprised expression, Gu Zijiu still looked incomprehensible, and added: "What's the matter, Gu Feibai didn't call a large group of brothers to kill me because he was in a bad mood before." ”
“.…..” The corners of Jiang Li's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help adding, "And then you were in a bad mood, and you took a bunch of people with you to save those Jianghu people?" ”
Gu Zijiu waved his hand: "That's all by the way." ”
The corners of Jiang Li's mouth twitched habitually, and then he suddenly remembered that this action seemed to be done often since Gu Zijiu appeared.
And not only himself, but the eighth brother and the fifth brother also seem to often have this kind of speechless expression.
After reminiscing, he reached out and scratched his head, and sighed. always felt that no matter how serious and serious things he said with Gu Zijiu, he would end up with a speechless twitch in the end.
Jiang Li is really a little curious, in this world, is there really nothing that will cause Gu Zijiu's sudden change in emotions?
In fact, if Gu Zijiu could hear Jiang Li's heart at this time, I am afraid that he would really be interested in answering this question.
After all, although Gu Zijiu can't call for wind and rain yet, he can basically turn his hands into clouds and rain by himself.
No matter what world she is in, no matter how large the hostile forces she faces, she has the ability to create another force to contend with.
"Smack."
Jiang Chen had already sorted out all the things in the medicine box, and at this time, there were a large number of colorful medicine bottles on the stone table, and at a glance, he always felt that even Jiang Chen, who had always been very immortal, had a murderous aura.
"Chirp, the one who seriously injured you before was also someone from your Gu family?"
Gu Zijiu nodded.
Jiang Chen mixed several medicine bottles of different colors together, shook them slightly, and turned them into a bottle of pure green liquid, and Gu Zijiu frowned.
She stretched out her finger and pointed at the green liquid and asked, "Xiao Chenchen, what is this?" ”
Jiang Chen shook the medicine bottle calmly, his temperament was elegant and like an immortal, and when the wind blew at this time, it seemed even more like an immortal.
It's just that under such a temperament, what Jiang Chen said was ......
"If you take medicine that will make you mentally retarded."
Jiang Li and Gu Zijiu at the same time: "......"
Jiang Chen carefully packed the medicine that had been mixed, and then slowly packed the medicine box again, it seemed that Jiang Li had been tinkering with this when he was talking to Gu Zijiu.
"I came here this time to give this to you."
Gu Zijiu looked at Jiang Chen's temperament like an immortal, stretched out his hands respectfully, and asked in awe: "Hero, if this medicine accidentally touches it, will it become mentally retarded?" ”
"Yes."
When Gu Zijiu heard Jiang Chen's answer, his hands couldn't help but shake nervously.
"I thought you shouldn't need this medicine, but since the Gu family can send someone to kill you, it means that it may not be safe for you to live in that place."
It's no wonder that when she was talking just now, there was always some creepy smell floating next to her.
Afraid that Jiang Chen would be in a bad mood, he would directly make a lot of poison to poison her Gu Zijiu, who was an elite of the Gu family, and was ready to say a few words of plea for Gu Feibai.
"Xiao Chenchen...... In fact, Gu Feibai is not a bad person, at least he didn't really want my life at all, otherwise I was so seriously injured at that time, he could have killed me directly. ”
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Chen tangledly, a little puzzled why Jiang Chen, who had always been the first goal of saving people, suddenly changed his personality at some point.
"Also, your medicine looks too bright, what if I accidentally use it as mustard in Gu Fei's rice one day!"
“.…..”
"Then let's count him dying young."
Jiang Jiuyuan, who didn't know when he appeared behind Gu Zijiu, patted her on the shoulder and helped her make a decision very happily.
