Chapter 38: The Villa
When Gu Mingzhu woke up, he was lying on a bed.
It's not a farmhouse, it's a very clean wing. She remembered what had happened, sat up slowly, looked around, and realized that even she had a change of clothes.
She got dressed, opened the door, and saw the green mountains and green waters, and the sun was dazzling.
The rain stopped.
There are people fishing across the lake.
Gu Mingzhu reacted.
Lake Jade Villa.
Gu Mingzhu saw the faces of one of them clearly, and strode forward: "Why didn't you rest?" ”
Both of them turned their heads.
Xu Jue put down the fishing rod, stood up, and said, "It's just a small injury." ”
"Minor injuries?" Gu Mingzhu quickly glanced at the person opposite, and couldn't say any emotion: "It's okay, Xu Shizi's own body knows by himself." ”
She saluted the people by the lake, turned around and left.
Xu Jue followed behind and caught up.
As soon as he walked a few steps, he could hear him gasp, and Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but stop.
"You deserve to die, you don't lie down and recuperate, what kind of fish do you follow him to catch!" Gu Mingzhu suddenly rose a nameless fire: "Don't follow me!" ”
She was fierce, Xu Jue followed, looked at her with her hands on her chest, and said, "Why are you still angry?" ”
Gu Mingzhu turned his head away, not wanting to pay attention to him.
Xu Jue approached, saw her apricot eyes slightly widened, a little cute, and said with a smile: "I can still deceive you......" He observed her expression, and finally said: "Then I'll go back and lie down?" ”
Gu Mingzhu smiled: "What does it matter to me whether the prince is dead or alive." ”
"I'm really angry, so you hit me twice to get angry?"
He really came closer as he spoke.
Gu Mingzhu pushed him away a little: "How dare I." ”
"I've scolded everything, what's not to dare."
The atmosphere eased inexplicably.
Gu Mingzhu's gaze couldn't help but fall on his lips, the scar was really obvious, it was difficult to ignore it, in the end, she was a little bit of a thief, she looked left and right and said, "How did we get here?" ”
"The farmhouse is not far from the villa, and there is a doctor here, so I came." Xu Jue leaned against the paint-red column on the side and looked into the distance.
Gu Mingzhu stood side by side with him.
Xu Jue said: "What a ruthless person......
Gu Mingzhu was silent.
Xu Jue should have guessed her intentions, this person's mind is always so thorough.
Gu Mingzhu stood quietly, and in this tranquility, he suddenly inevitably thought about the obstacles caused by Xu Jue's presence in Jiangling.
When everything comes to the surface, which side will he be on?
He is the famous Xu Jue, the prince who has been undefeated since he led the army, and the general who is supported and loved by the people.
They will eventually be on the opposite side.
Gu Mingzhu's heart was calm.
Yes, what is this kind of thing?
Xu Jue said: "Yesterday, the group of people had strong martial arts, and they made it clear that they were going to die, but they didn't know why they let go of September." ”
"Maybe it's your enemy."
Xu Jue said: "What enemy dares to do it at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is obvious that he came with a purpose, and he dared to move on my head, and his courage is commendable." ”
Gu Mingzhu smiled and said, "Don't talk about this, I'm hungry." ”
"Let's eat."
After breakfast, Gu Mingzhu also saw Prince De leaving.
Li Sui is the second son of the emperor, and he is the most logical person who will be made the crown prince except for the East Palace.
But behind him, there is also the fourth son Rui Wang, who is both civil and military.
Lichang or Lixian?
The court was divided into two factions, and there was constant intrigue for this.
Li Sui took advantage of his age, pretending to be the biggest, but he was simple-minded, because of the assassination, he soon took it for granted that King Rui had done it.
He knew that the matter of Lotus Tower had nothing to do with him, but King Rui indiscriminately put this matter on his head.
Brotherhood is nothing more than that!
Gu Mingzhu saluted, and was a little curious about her: "This is the sister of Deputy General Gu of the Yulin Army?" ”
Xu Jue said: "Exactly." ”
Lisui said: "The prince is injured, and it is not too late for us to rest for a few days and then return to Beijing." ”
The three of them sat in the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Xu Jue said: "The minor injury is fine, I have sent someone here, the situation is dangerous, we should leave immediately." ”
After a moment of silence, he said, "What does the prince think about my encounter with an assassin?" ”
Xu Jue drank tea: "Forgive me for being stupid and having no opinion." ”
He didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the two sons.
The smile faded a little, and soon deepened, and said, "The son of the world is smart, you might as well give some advice." ”
"Lord Wang." Xu Jue held the teacup and looked at Lisui quietly: "Are you forcing me?" ”
Gu Mingzhu coughed lightly.
This man spoke a little too directly.
"Don't dare." Lisui was also taken aback: "This king just admires you as a person and wants to be friends with you." ”
Xu Jue smiled, and the atmosphere suddenly eased: "The prince is polite, I am naturally friends with the prince, if there is something to ask a friend for help, the prince can speak." ”
This is the end of the temptation to leave.
Gu Mingzhu added tea to the two.
Lisui: "I haven't bothered to ask, where did this injury on the son's mouth come from?" ”
The movements of the two of them drinking tea are the same.
Gu Mingzhu slowly brought the teacup to his mouth, and heard Xu Jue chuckle, with a bit of pleasure in his tone: "I accidentally let the cat bite." ”
"Cats?" Li Suihu was suspicious: "A cat can actually bite you?" ”
"This cat has a big temper, and I can't do anything about her."
Lisuruo laughed thoughtfully: "I see, ......"
Gu Mingzhu poured a cup of hot tea to the end.
The two of them tacitly understood and kept silent.
After sitting for a while, September brought the people of Jingzhao Mansion.
The group entered Beijing.
It was already twilight when he returned to the mansion, Gu Mingzhu said a few words, explained the ins and outs to Gu Xiurong, and fell asleep early.
The next day, word spread.
Yan's house was copied.
King Rui and Prince De quarreled in the imperial study, and the emperor was furious and ordered the two to go back to the house and think about it behind closed doors.
Xu Jue was implicated for no reason, and a large amount of tonic medicine was sent to the palace.
"I heard that the prince personally sent it to the Xu Mansion." Ah Sandao.
Gu Mingzhu smiled when he heard this: "Xu Jue has a noble status after all, and if he is seriously injured by this, if the palace has no attitude, he will not be able to explain to the Xu family." ”
Ah San pondered for a moment and said, "I didn't expect that the Son of Heaven's attitude towards the Xu family had reached this point. ”
Gu Mingzhu didn't speak, her eyes fell on the book, and she was a little distracted.
I wonder what happened to his injuries?
She thought for a while, put down the book, and said, "Is my brother back?" ”
"The eldest young master has just entered the mansion and is eating."
When Gu Mingzhu went, Gu Xiurong was ordering someone to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
"Brother." Gu Mingzhu saw a few boxes on the table: "What is this going to do?" ”
"Just in time." Gu Xiurong changed into his regular clothes and was hanging his head to tie his belt: "I want to go out of Beijing." ”
"Out of Beijing? Where to? Gu Mingzhu casually opened one of the boxes, and it was a ginseng.
"The will of the palace, let me follow the people from the Criminal Department to Ganzhou."
"Something to do with the Lotus Tower?"
Gu Xiurong said: "Exactly, the people from the Criminal Department are already waiting. Ah Jue is injured, I can't go, you go to Xu Mansion to visit on my behalf. ”
Gu Mingzhu choked.
Gu Xiurong saw that her expression was wrong, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Gu Mingzhu shook his head: "It's okay." ”
Gu Mingzhu sent him to the door, Gu Xiurong said: "These days, Beijing is not peaceful, try to go out as little as possible, when I am not there, I have something to find Ah Jue." ”
Gu Mingzhu nodded, and after sending him on the horse, he summoned Ah San to prepare the car.
