Chapter 132: Undercurrents are surging
Although the emperor was suspicious, Gu Er Ye was not a person who would easily slander others, so these news were not groundless.
But Li Yu's behavior in the palace is beyond reproach.
The emperor's suspicion can only be put aside for the time being.
On the other hand, Gu Wanchao didn't know that these big people were looking for the princess's details for her, she was always immersed in the quarrel of Fang Cai, she went out this time to relieve her worries, but she didn't expect to have a quarrel with Xiao Yu'an, and her original good mood was all destroyed.
Back in the house, Gu Wanchao plunged into the room, and no matter who came, he didn't open the door.
In such an environment where he could be alone, Gu Wanchao couldn't help but think of Xiao Yu'an's sacrifice to protect him.
A few days ago, she met him hastily, and she hadn't asked him how he was recovering from his injuries, so she was emotional, and she forgot about it, and when she remembered it a little, a sense of regret rose from her heart.
Thinking about it carefully, Xiao Yu'an installed someone next to her just for the sake of her safety, and she was praying for blessings in the temple with the eldest lady before, if it weren't for Xiao Yu'an's people to protect her, she might really fall in love with Jiang Yun's way.
"Why should I think about him? He hid everything from me, thinking that he was extremely smart and could predict everything, and he didn't consider my thoughts at all...... "Gu Wanchao also wanted to convince himself that Fang Cai's move was right, but when he thought that Xiao Yu'an's terrible wound on his abdomen was for her, this persuasion also became pale and weak.
"I'm annoyed." Gu Wanchao buried his face in the pillow, Xiao Yu'an's external image has always been indifferent, and he is polite and detached from others, on the other hand, he is sincere to her, Gu Wanchao has seen Xiao Yu'an smile, but he has never seen him so angry just now.
"Am I going a little too far?" Gu Wanchao thought of his nosy words, and he couldn't wait to go back to the past and cover his mouth.
How can you even say such hurtful words?
Gu Wanchao was just angry that Xiao Yu'an didn't discuss anything with her, not to deny Xiao Yu'an's kindness to him.
Gu Wanchao inexplicably felt a sullen feeling in his heart, and the anger that had originally ignited had now turned into a grievance, this grievance was indescribable, Gu Wanchao only felt that the emotional ups and downs of the past few days always revolved around Xiao Yu'an.
Wei Yuan's matter would not make her so angry, but seeing that Xiao Yu Anxin obviously already had a sweetheart, he was still so concerned about her......
"Ahh Gu Wanchao bounced up from the bed and sat down, and after a few deep breaths, she secretly made a decision in her heart.
After all, I have to apologize to Xiao Yu'an.
It's just that when and how, I can't figure it out.
"Chaochao?" Outside the door, Aunt Liu's voice sounded.
Gu Wanchao hurriedly stood up and sorted out her clothes, just now she was angry, she was petty, and asked her subordinates not to come in and disturb her, but she didn't expect it to alarm her aunt.
"Auntie." Gu Wanchao opened the door.
Aunt Liu knew that Gu Wanchao was going out today, so she took special care of her subordinates and took good care of them, so as not to make any mistakes.
"What's going on?" Aunt Liu lifted the lantern in her hand, and by the candlelight, the redness and swelling of Gu Wanchao's eyes were clearly visible, "Why are your eyes swollen like this?" ”
Gu Wanchao rubbed his eyes, covered his face with a pillow, didn't notice that he was crying, and now his eyes were dry for a while, "It's nothing, I just met a scoundrel on the street." ”
Aunt Liu frowned, "Scoundrel? Did he hurt you? As he spoke, he looked Gu Wanchao up and down to see if everything was fine, and then he was relieved, "Next time, don't let the next person go back to the house first, there must always be someone to take care of you, after all, it is the young lady of the Gu family......"
Gu Wanchao could hear that her aunt was going to start teaching at length, and hurriedly grabbed her arm and coquettishly, "Auntie, I know it's wrong, I didn't think it would be more comfortable to go shopping alone." With that, Gu Wanchao pulled the person into the room and pointed to the pile of objects on the table, "I also brought a gift for my aunt." ”
She and Xiao Yu'an hadn't forgotten to bring these things back during the dispute just now, Gu Wanchao rummaged through them, "Found it." ”
It was a dark green brocade box, and when it was opened, there was a jade carving inside.
It is not a rare jade, but because of its exquisite carving craftsmanship, it is a lifelike lion cub, and the fluffy details around the body are excellent, and Gu Wanchao is also in love with it at a glance, "This is perfect for my aunt to make a fan pendant." Saying that, Gu Wanchao stuffed the brocade box into her aunt's hand, "After receiving my gift, you can't be angry anymore." ”
"You kid ......" Aunt Liu pinched the box, and pressed it for the time being.
When Second Master Gu got the news, she was also on the side, and she wanted to see Gu Wanchao and talk about what she did in the palace.
But now seeing her innocent demeanor, Aunt Liu didn't ask again.
After all, it's just a child, involved in disputes between adults......
It is rare for the two to be close, Gu Wanchao saw that the timing was right today, and Aunt Liu slept with her.
"Auntie sleeps with me, I haven't slept well these days......"
Aunt Liu knew that she was worried about the assassination, and since Gu Wanchao hid it from her, she would not take the initiative to mention it. "How old are you? Do you want me to sleep with you? ”
"Auntie......" Gu Wanchao softened her voice.
"Good, good." Although Aunt Liu couldn't stand her coquettishness, she immediately disarmed and surrendered.
In the end, Gu Wanchao pillowed Aunt Liu's thigh, felt her gentle patting, and gradually became unconscious.
Aunt Liu saw that she was not going to sleep, so she gently put her on the bed, covered the corners, and when she turned around and wanted to leave, she was pulled back.
Gu Wanchao held her hand and dreamed, "Auntie...... I also brought you osmanthus cake......"
In the darkness, Aunt Liu looked at Gu Wanchao's sleeping face, and her heart was soft.
She approached with a purpose, but this kid always gave back sincerely, which made her a little confused.
rummaged on the table, and sure enough, she chose a piece of osmanthus cake wrapped in oiled paper, Aunt Liu opened it, the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, and the sweetness of the entrance made her even more fond of Gu Wanchao.
And this put her in a contradiction.
Late yesterday night, Aunt Liu met the mysterious person.
She originally wanted to know through the mysterious person what happened to the eldest princess and Gu Wanchao, and she would be so ruthless.
Under the moonlight, the person on the opposite side was wearing a black cloak, and his calm voice came, adding to the mystery, "You don't have to worry about these things, Gu Wanchao supported and meddled in Jiangling, provoked people who shouldn't be messed with, and now they are also sabotaging our plans, don't be merciful to her, it's ...... to get rid of her as soon as possible."
The mysterious man's words were not hovering in her ears, and Aunt Liu had that sweetness in her mouth, and she approached Gu Wanchao again.
