Chapter 51
When the news reached the capital, Chu You was taken aback.
He clearly reached an agreement with the Nanyue people, and the Nanyue emperor also stated in the letter that he would send someone to Danyang City to discuss with him in detail. At this critical moment, the Nanyue people suddenly turned their backs, not only setting fire, but even assassinating He Zhifu, which is equivalent to life and death. Cut off Danyang City from him.
When the incident happened, Chu Yi was also in Danyang City.
To say it was too coincidental, but to say what Chu Yi did, there seemed to be no clues enough to verify it.
Since Chu Yi returned to Beijing, he hasn't done anything out of the ordinary. He has always looked sick and crooked, and rarely sees outsiders, that is, he went to Prince Jing's mansion a few days ago.
Yuan Zhe was also thoughtful, and said in a deep voice: "In short, the eldest prince's life is a threat."
Chu You silently nodded slightly.
"Your Highness, do you want to see who the eldest prince's confidante is?" Yuan Zhe looked at the shadowy figure beside Chu Yi again, and said in his heart: The eldest prince is eighteen years old. If he hadn't been in South Vietnam for many years, Already married.
Just as the queen mother has been worrying about King Kang's marriage, the emperor is also thinking about the eldest prince's marriage...
Chu You originally wanted to say no need, he didn't pay attention to a mere woman at all, but when the words came to his lips, his heart moved, and he felt that the silhouette he saw through the gap in the bamboo curtain just now seemed familiar.
He also raised his head again, and cast his sharp eyes on the hazy soft side face at the window.
The girl behind the Concubine Xiang's bamboo curtain suddenly leaned forward, raised her hand and lowered the half-raised bamboo curtain again.
This action made her side face exposed from behind the bamboo curtain, clearly reflected in Chu You's eyes below.
is her! Chu You's eyes widened suddenly, unable to hide his shock.
"Your Highness, do you recognize this girl?" Yuan Zhe saw something strange from Chu You's expression.
Chu You: "..."
This is……
Why is she with Chu Yi? !
Chu You still remembers what happened in Prince Jing's mansion.
Originally, he could ask his mother to give him and his wife a marriage, but Gu Yanfei ruined it.
Chu You clenched his fists subconsciously, his joints creaked, and he couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Gu Yanfei is a country woman who just arrived here, how did these two people who are so different from each other get mixed up? !
This feeling of uncertainty made Chu You very disgusted, as if something was beyond his control.
Chu You's eyes were cloudy, and the falling bamboo curtain closed like a door in front of him and Yuan Zhe.
The bamboo curtain blocked the direct sunlight from the window, and Gu Yanfei in the private seat felt much more comfortable, and adjusted to a comfortable sitting posture.
The shopkeeper carefully put seven or eight wine jugs and a bunch of small plates on the table, bowed repeatedly with a smile on his face and said, "This is the wine ordered by the girl, you two take it slowly."
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he quickly exited the private seat.
In the elegant seat, all kinds of wine aromas are overflowing, blending into an intoxicating smell.
Gu Yanfei looked at the table full of drinks he had just ordered, rolled up his sleeves with slightly curved eyebrows, then skillfully mixed rice wine, honey water, rose syrup, etc., shook the jug lightly, and finally poured the wine Sprinkle some fine rose petals in the liquid, this series of movements are like flowing clouds and flowing water, elegant and smooth.
She poured two glasses of wine from the jug, one for herself and the other for Chu Yi, and said with a smile, "Try it, it's an apology for my Qingguang. I cut its nails when I went back that day."
She pointed to Chu Yi's cuff, meaning that Qingguang scratched his cuff last time.
"..." Chu Yi could almost imagine the three-colored cat's expression of being horrified and suspicious of the cat's life when its nails were clipped, and chuckled.
His laughter was very sweet, like a stream passing by in summer, gently rubbing against one's eardrums, making the tips of the ears itchy.
Chu Yi raised his hand to take the wine glass, took a sip with his thin lips, and savored it carefully. His pleasant smile warmed his originally cold eyes.
He drank it very slowly, as if he was sipping tea. On the contrary, Gu Yanfei drank it in one gulp in a very careless manner.
Gu Yanfei left Qiongfangzhai after a stick of incense, with a faint hint of drunkenness on his face, refreshed.
It was rare for her to come out, she didn't go back to the Hou Mansion immediately, and wandered along Zhenhua Street.
In her previous life, although she lived in the capital for several years, she almost never left the Hou's mansion.
She had the money she just won from the polo match, and she went shopping all the way. Besides buying some snacks, sachets, and silk flowers, she also bought some cinnabar, talisman paper, silver needles, and medicinal materials before slowly setting foot on the road. way home.
When she returned to Dingyuan Hou's Mansion, it was almost dusk.
The setting sun is sinking to the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun burns the flowing clouds in the sky, dyeing a colorful sunset glow.
The evening wind howled, and the leaves of the sycamore trees on both sides of the street had fallen in the continuous drizzle of the past few days, leaving only barren branches stretching out their teeth and claws to the sky.
After entering the Hou's mansion through the corner gate, Gu Yanfei saw a two-horse Cuigai Zhuying eight-treasure chariot parked at the Waiyi gate.
Gu Yanfei couldn't help but stamped his feet, and his gaze paused for a moment on the gorgeous carriage in front of him.
This is the carriage of the British princess, she has seen it in her previous life.
Gu Yanfei didn't speak, but the concierge next to her noticed her gaze and said with a smile on her face, "Second girl, the British lady came here half an hour ago."
The woman's eyes were shining, and there was a strange excitement in her expression.
Gu Yanfei walked forward against the cold evening wind, finely broken leaves and flowers rushed towards her face.
Gu Yanfei was no stranger to the British duchess.
In her previous life, after she returned to the capital, she once visited the British government with Madam Hou Wang. She still remembered that the British princess was critical of her in every possible way, and the contemptuous eyes of the other party were like needles on her body.
At that time, the Duke and Duchess of England hardly ever said anything seriously to Gu Yanfei, they were all said to Mrs. Wang, and they sneered a lot:
After a while, they said that Gu Yanfei was a country girl, and her speech and behavior were not up to the table;
For a while, he said that he didn't know what Gu Yanfei had experienced in the past fourteen years;
After a while, he said that Gu Yanfei couldn't understand everything in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and couldn't read big characters, how to manage the house in the future, and how to control him;
...
The other party's words made Gu Yanfei feel ashamed, and really wanted to dig a hole in the ground.
The past resurfaced clearly in her mind again, flashing like a revolving lantern.
"Second Miss!" From the other side of the Waiyi Gate, a slightly excited female voice called Gu Yanfei back from his thoughts.
The mother-in-law at the back slapped her thigh and said, "Miss Qingshuang has been waiting for you for a while."
While speaking, a beautiful maidservant in Tsing Yi walked towards Gu Yanfei from the Outer Instrument Gate, knelt down and blessed and said, "Second Miss, Madam Tai, please come over."
Gu Yanfei stopped in his tracks, and looked at the extremely luxurious carriage a few meters away again. The sunset glow cast a layer of magnificence on the carriage.
The British government is very popular in the court, and its current status is far higher than that of the Dingyuan Marquis. It is obvious that the temporary replacement is the fault of the Marquis, and it is obvious that they simply look down on her. In the last life, why did they still hold their noses? marriage!
It wasn't until half a year later that the Fang family found an excuse and divorced on the grounds that she had been in the car with a man in Danyang City.
Gu Yanfei has never thought about these things until now.
