Chapter 54: Gu Xinian



[Chapter 4, Volume 4]

Section 393

Duanmuqin persuaded her niece Duanmu Xinmiao to return to the imperial capital together, and with Wei Changying's previous reminder, Gu Xinian naturally would not miss this opportunity to entrust Gu Rouzhang.

It is said that the generation of the imperial capital Gu family is all talented: Gu Naizheng, the eldest son of Gu, has a mouth that is enough to make the living angry to death and the dead popular, but he himself is not aware of it at all, and even thinks that he is knowledgeable and fair and brave - he is simply a close friend who is envied by everyone in the world; The eldest lady Gu Rouzhang is a martial arts addict, and she has a good life of brocade clothes and jade food that many people can't envy, but the stalker Lai refuses to leave on the frontier, and she is completely happy in it.

Gu Xinian, the second son of this concubine, happened to be sandwiched between the two, and it can be said that he was poisoned by these two since he was a child, but over time, he had his own means to perfunctory these two.

For example, this time, Gu Xinian led people to the county according to the address given by Wei Changying, and did not go to Gu Rouzhang first, but it took a few days first, as if dealing with the enemy, when he figured out that Gu Rouzhang was in the house, he sent people to surround the house on all sides, and then suddenly stepped forward and kicked open the door - sure enough, all the way in, I saw the servants trying their best to stop him, but he didn't see Gu Rouzhang's figure, until he entered the room, made a pot of tea with the tea he carried, and drank a small half cup leisurely. I saw my subordinates escorting my sister-in-law, who was full of reluctance.

As soon as Gu Rouzhang saw his brother, he jumped up and scolded him for being shameless and despicable: Originally, Gu Rouzhang had set up a messenger in front, but as soon as Gu Xinian came, he sounded the drum to remind Gu Rouzhang in the back hall - so that she could escape.

Miss Gu is very skilled, she carried a small package, and she went up to the wall as light as a swallow, and she was able to slip into the alley behind the house like a spider's web, which made Gu Xinian pounce!

But slowly—

She went up to the wall, and before she could see what was going on outside the wall, an arrow that had been drawn and wrapped in a thick cotton cloth shot her back into the courtyard......

Although Gu Rouzhang has a good foundation in martial arts, he can't stand Xiliang Lianzhou City has fallen to the hands of Di Ren several times, and even if the county town below has not been lost, it has to be prevented from falling, so the courtyard wall is exceptionally high.

Not only is it high, but Gu Rouzhang is also self-inflicted, since she heard that the war is over, she is prepared for Gu Xinian to send herself back to the imperial capital, so she has always been prepared to avoid Gu Xinian when she comes to the door - the snow in the backyard is always swept away, so as to prolong the direction in which Gu Xinian found her fleeing.

…… So, poor Miss Gu fell firmly down on the clean and slippery green brick floor that had been cleaned!

At that moment, Gu Rouzhang was shocked but smiled: such a high wall, such a fall, whether it was injured or not, he would not get up after falling to the ground!

100 days, 100 days - the most important thing is that you must not be bumpy! So she needed both a long time to recuperate and recuperate, so she didn't believe that Gu Xinian could watch her do nothing here for three months!

When he's gone, let's see who can control Miss Ben!

It's a pity that Gu Rouzhang's thought turned around in his mind, and he felt that his falling body was suddenly supported! Then she flicked it up - after a few times, she was shocked to find that in the backyard, which was still empty before she fell, she was alone, and at some point four guards appeared in strong suits, pulling a piece of brilliantly colored Shu brocade together.

Shu brocade is precious, the weaving is complicated, and it is also firm. These four guards had great strength, and each held a corner of Shu Jin, and let Gu Rouzhang bounce off the bullet for a while, but his arm didn't move at all!

Seeing this scene, Gu Rouzhang's nose was almost crooked!

What made her even more angry was that when her falling momentum completely disappeared, two of the four guards immediately let go, let her slip to the ground, followed by the remaining two guards shook Shu brocade, and said to her respectfully: "Miss, the second son is waiting for you in the main hall." The second son said, if you don't go, ask your subordinates to take this Shu brocade and wrap the eldest lady with her head and feet and pull her over. Miss, what do you think this is? ”

"......" What else can Gu Rouzhang say?

She knew all four of these guards, and they were the elite of the Gu family's private guards. Gu Xinian wanted to go to Xiliang to join the army, and the head of the Gu family specially sent it to him for the safety of his son. In Xiliang, these four people only listened to Gu Xinian's words. Even if Gu Rouzhang is the eldest lady or a daughter-in-law, she can't disobey them...... But they really dare to do what Gu Xinian instructs!

Horizontal and vertical, since the order was given by Gu Xinian, any consequences are also borne by Gu Xinian.

Therefore, after Gu Rouzhang saw Gu Xinian, he immediately became furious - Gu Xinian was so self-contained, he drank tea with a calm expression, and listened to her indignantly scolded for half an hour, before handing over a cup of tea, and said earnestly: "Isn't this for my brother, but not to fulfill my sister?" ”

Gu Rouzhang looked at him suspiciously, and said, "You treat me like a prisoner, and you dare to say that you will fulfill me!" ”

Gu Xinian smiled lazily and said, "Brother knows that my sister wants to stay in Xiliang, yes or no?" ”

"I know you're still arresting me!" Gu Rouzhang was even more angry!

"It's just that Xiliang is bitterly cold and far away from the imperial capital, and the most important thing is that this place is not safe." Gu Xinian raised his index finger, shook it slightly, and said with a light smile, "How can you say that our father can allow you to stay here for a long time?" This time I asked you to stay for months, which is already the limit! If you want to stay, how can you not explain? ”

Gu Rouzhang said vigilantly: "Then what do you mean?" ”

"Today was originally an opportunity created for your brother." Gu Xinian waved his hand to stop her anger and explained, "The people brought here for my brother today are our family's private guards. The four Liang brothers are the best in private guards! If you can get away surrounded by them, then your brother can also speak to your father for you, yes or no? ”

Gu Rouzhang was so stunned that he was just a few words like this, and snorted: "It's strange that I believe you!" You've surrounded this house like an iron bucket! It's already hard to get out of the encirclement, and you are still despicable enough to let people sneak attack me, how do you tell me to get out of such a formation? ”

Gu Xinian smiled: "You said that it was difficult to get out just now, did you deliberately embarrass you for your brother?" If your brother can get away in the same situation, what do you have to say? ”

"Then I'll listen to you!" When Gu Rouzhang heard this, he hurriedly thought about the process of being caught just now, and was frustrated to find that unless he already knew that someone was going to surround the house and get out before the siege was completed, it was useless to find that there were archers outside before going up the wall - a group of people rushed in and searched one by one, there were really no secret rooms in this house, and they could never be found.

After all, this place is just one of the properties of Ming Pei Tang all over Xiliang, and the servants in it are all ordinary people. The Shen family is not idle, and they arrange every property as painstakingly as the ancestral hall.

Gu Rouzhang thought about it and felt that it was impossible, and thought that it would be good to see his brother make a fool of himself, and he seized this opportunity again, "But if you can't do it, second brother, you are not allowed to care about me anymore!" Not only can't you arrest me back to Xiliang and send me back to the imperial capital this time. When my father sends someone to arrest me, you have to help me too! ”

"It's a deal!" When Gu Xinian heard this, he threw away the teacup without saying a word, and said with a smile, "Then this will start?" ”

"Can't use your people! Your people listen to you! Gu Rouzhang hurriedly put forward all kinds of requirements, "The four brothers of the Liang family have excellent martial arts, which are not comparable to ordinary guards!" And when I jumped on the wall just now, there were arrows from almost all directions, and you can't miss it! ”

Gu Xinian listened to her talk about a lot of restrictions, his brows did not wrinkle, and he agreed one by one: "It's all according to what my sister said." ”

He smiled again and asked, "Then my sister thinks that whose people should be used to replace these subordinates who are brothers?" ”

This question made Gu Rouzhang's face change suddenly-there are many people who can compare to Gu Xinian's guards alone, for example, Wei Changying's side can lend a group of people out at any time.

But the tragedy is that Wei Changying is also looking forward to returning to the imperial capital as soon as possible, not to make her busy all day long in Xiliang, but also to bear a heart...... It is conceivable that the person sent by Wei Changying, if he knew the bet made by the brother and sister, it would be strange if he didn't release the water!

In the same way, the people of the Shen family, including the retinue of the Qin Chaduan xylophone...... These people must be willing to do the head of the Gu family a small favor......

Gu Rouzhang thought hard for a long time before he thought of the most suitable person in comparison: "The soldiers praised by the imperial court this time, use them!" "I heard that the border soldiers are fierce, and the slightly weaker generals can't suppress them, and this brother of his own family is polite, those people shouldn't sell their brother's face, right?

With such expectations...... As you can imagine, she lost a mess.

After Wei Changying learned the news, he couldn't help but be happy: "Doesn't Rouzhang know that Gu Er Gongzi is one of A's subordinates, and there is a reason why the boss does not help his subordinates, but helps the sister of the subordinates he has never met?" No matter how fierce the border soldiers are, the commander's orders are not obeyed, what are such soldiers left for? Besides, she refused to return home like this, which made her father and brother worried, who would not help when she saw it? She just searched Xiliang all over Xiliang, and who could she find who wouldn't let Gu Xi Nian go out? It is impossible for her to watch all the houses by herself. ”

Zhu Xian, who was the first to hear the news, pursed her lips and smiled: "Miss Gu lost this time, she is still not convinced, and she is clamoring to change people again!" ”

Wei Changying smiled and asked, "Who did she change?" ”

First of all, she replaced the group of servants who had served her in the house and were bribed by her with money. Then she replaced the commoners she sent to recruit on the streets. Zhu Xian said with a smile, "Three defeats in three games, Miss Gu almost cried at that time!" ”

"She......" Wei Changying shook his head with a smile and said, "Then now she agrees to go back to the imperial capital?" ”

Zhu Xian nodded: "It is said that the second prince Gu said to Miss Gu like this: saying that Miss Gu's martial arts are so sparse and her wisdom is so unbearable, staying in Xiliang is a burden, and she has no heart to make people feel inexhaustible, so let Miss Gu do a good job and stop being a burden...... Miss Gu was so angry that her face was flushed, but she couldn't say anything to refute it, and the people on the side couldn't help the second son Gu, and now she planned to go back to the imperial capital to sue the head of the Gu family. ”

Wei Changying sighed: "It's really not easy for the head of the Gu family! ”

All the maids nodded together, two sons and one daughter under their knees, except for Gu Xinian who can save some snacks for the elders, the sons and daughters are all masters who want people to die if they are not careful-but although Gu Xinian himself does not have to worry about the elders, he is not a person who will take the initiative to share the worries of the elders: this guy is such a hand, and he is angry with his sister back to the imperial capital, he is shirking the responsibility, and he does not have to worry about the sister-in-law who is playing alone in Xiliang in addition to handling official affairs, but it is the head of the Gu family who is worried about it again......
