Alluring City

Chapter 042

The place where she uncovered the tile happened to be directly above the person hiding on the beam.

With just one glance, she saw the man's back.

Gu Xiaowu only glanced at it, and quickly put the tile back to its original position. If it was later, the person might find himself leaning on the roof because of the cold wind blowing in from the hole.

It's just that when putting the tile back to its original position, Gu Xiaowu lightly sprinkled some fine powder down.

Gu Xiaowu waited patiently on the roof, counted in his heart silently, and then heard a slight sound coming from the study.

The corner of Gu Xiaowu's mouth raised slightly, and he lifted the tile again.

It seems that the medicine she sprinkled has paid off!

The person hiding on the beam was lying on the not-so-wide beam in an extremely dangerous posture at the moment, and it looked like he might fall down at any time.

Gu Xiaowu flew down from the roof lightly, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one there, she tiptoed into the study.

At this moment, she is really glad that today is Chinese New Year, otherwise she would never have slipped in so easily today.

It is said that the guards around Yan Beixiao's study were the strictest in the past, although there are very few guards patrolling today, Gu Xiaowu is not too worried.

After all, it was Chinese New Year, so it was normal for the guards to relax.

What's more, there is such a person with strong martial arts in the study, presumably it is because of this reason that Yan Beixiao has reduced the number of patrolling guards.

Gu Xiaowu didn't brighten the fire pocket, if the study room was shining at this moment, the guards patrolling nearby would definitely notice it.

With the help of the white snow outside, she could see everything inside the house very clearly, not to mention her night vision ability was already very strong.

She ventured into Yan Beixiao's mansion, but her purpose was actually very simple, she just wanted to see what Yan Beixiao's personal seal looked like.

If it looks good, then she will forcefully keep it for him.

I don't know if Yan Beixiao is very reassuring about the guards in his mansion, or because he is too careless, his personal seal is not very secretive, at least for Gu Xiaowu.

She just casually touched the back of the bookshelf a few times, and she actually touched his personal seal.

The seal as thick as a man's thumb is carved from a piece of white jade, which is exquisite in appearance and high in quality.

In short, Gu Xiaowu was very satisfied.

Leaving a note as a prank, Gu Xiaowu unceremoniously took the seal away.

On the way, I encountered two groups of patrolling guards, but Gu Xiaowu avoided them without any danger.

When he was lying on the roof before, his clothes were a little wet from the snow, and because he was thinking about Yan Beixiao's seal, Gu Xiaowu didn't feel the cold yet.

Now that he came out of the Second Prince's Mansion safely with his seal, Gu Xiaowu noticed that his clothes were already wet a lot.

It's okay if it's in midsummer, but it's cooler when it's wet.

But now it's the cold winter in the twelfth lunar month, with the biting cold wind coupled with the wet coat, Gu Xiaowu, who was already very afraid of the cold, felt even colder now.

Gu Xiaowu flew back to the General's Mansion with light work as if fleeing for his life, and the first thing he did when he returned to the room was to change all the clothes on his body.

After drinking two bowls of hot soup in a row, Gu Xiaowu finally felt less cold.

Su Yunqing hasn't come back yet.

Gu Xiaowu asked Ruo'er to prepare a lot of ingredients, and then ate hot pot with Su Xin, Ruo'er and Ling'er in Su Yunqing's room.

Although it is not so rich, it is really a happy thing to be able to eat hot pot in such a cold night.

Halfway through the meal, Su Yunqing finally came back, but her complexion was not very good-looking.

Neither Ruo'er nor Ling'er, her personal maids, noticed, but Gu Xiaowu did.

Gu Xiaowu put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and asked Su Xin to accompany Ruoer and the others to continue eating, while he dragged Su Yunqing to her boudoir.

"What happened at the dinner party?" Gu Xiaowu asked directly.

Su Yunqing's complexion was indeed not very good, although she still had a slight smile, but Gu Xiaowu could tell that there was bloodlust in her smile.

"Yan Beichen asked the old emperor for a marriage, and he wants to marry me as his concubine." Su Yunqing said in a low voice.

Although it was something to be happy about, there was no joy on her face.

Gu Xiaowu knew that she hadn't finished speaking, so he didn't ask anything, but quietly waited for her next words.

However, her name for Yan Beichen seems to have changed!Yesterday he was still called Beichen, but after the dinner, he changed his name to Yan Beichen.

"The old emperor agreed, but made a request." Su Yunqing smiled coldly, and continued: "He asked Yan Beichen to agree to let me and Su Zhaohua live together, and he also asked Su Zhaohua to be the main concubine and me to be the side concubine. "

"What did Yan Beichen say?" Gu Xiaowu asked.

Do sisters serve one husband?It was just a joke, how could Ah Zhi be wronged like this!

"I refused without waiting for him to agree." Su Yunqing suppressed the smile on his face, and his voice was a little cold.

She wasn't sure what Yan Beichen would do, but she absolutely wouldn't allow anyone to insult her like this.

She has her pride, if she has to pay a price in exchange for marrying into the Seventh Prince's Mansion, then she would rather not marry.

"Azhi, as long as you know that no matter what you do, I will stand by your side." Gu Xiaowu said softly, "Although I don't know what kind of person Yan Beichen is, but if he really wants to If I marry you, I will naturally find a way, so don't be angry anymore."

By now, the purpose of the Emperor of Yan Kingdom was obvious, he really planned to make Yan Beichen the crown prince.

The reason why Su Zhaohua was asked to marry him was probably to win over General Su.

Because Ah Zhi is a concubine, that's why he made such a bad move!

It's too much, Ah Zhi, how could she let someone insult herself like this!

"That's not what I'm really angry about." Su Yunqing forced a smile, "What really made me angry was that after Yan Beichen proposed to marry me, Yan Beixiao also knelt down and begged the old emperor for a marriage, and he was also me."

"If it's just like this, you shouldn't be so angry, right?" Gu Xiaowu said lightly. If it's just like this, Ah Zhi would just ignore Yan Beixiao at most.

"You don't know Yan Beichen yet. Every time he likes something, as long as his brother also likes it, he will choose to give in. There has never been an exception. I don't want to be his gift to Yan Beixiao, so That's why he refused before he opened his mouth." Su Yunqing smiled self-deprecatingly.

No matter how good-tempered a person is, he has his own pride.

She, Su Yunqing, is not a gift;

"Azhi, have you heard what Yan Beichen thinks?" Gu Xiaowu asked in a low voice.

Su Yunqing hesitated for a moment, and then said: "No, after I refused, I left early on the grounds of feeling unwell."

Gu Xiaowu went to the bed and sat down, rather helplessly said: "Azhi, you have a little confidence in yourself, okay! Before Yan Beichen backed down, it was because they were looking at something together, but you are a living This person is someone Yan Beichen likes, if you haven't tried it, how do you know that he will definitely choose to give up on you?"

Is it true that the IQ of all women in love is zero?Why bother with such a simple question?

Su Yunqing sat up abruptly, and said solemnly: "Xiao Wu, you should understand, I won't allow myself to be given up, even if I want to let go, I have to let go first!"

In fact, she and Xiao Wu are equally proud in their bones. Instead of waiting to be abandoned by others, it is better to choose to let go first.

"Ah Zhi!" Gu Xiaowu suddenly raised his voice, "Stop talking silly, how do you know that Yan Beichen will definitely choose to give up on you? Are you willing to just end your first relationship like this? ?”

"I……"

Before Su Yunqing could finish speaking, Ruo'er interrupted: "Miss, Your Highness Seventh please see me."

"not see!"

"Azhi!" Gu Xiaowu showed a big smile, "Let's have a good talk with him, even if he is sentenced to death, at least he should be given a chance to appeal, right?"

After finishing speaking, she turned to Ruo'er, "Go and invite His Royal Highness Seventh!"

"Azhi, I know you are hesitating right now. Today is the New Year's Eve. People are chasing after us at night. Can you give him a chance to explain?" Ahzhi in love really looks like a child!

"I see, I will have a good talk with him!" Su Yunqing lowered his head, with a faint smile on his face again.

Although the smile was still a little stiff, it was still a smile after all.

"That's good, I'll go out first, you guys have a good talk." Gu Xiaowu stood up and patted Su Yunqing on the shoulder.

As soon as he walked out of the room, he ran into Yan Beichen.

Gu Xiaowu was really surprised when she saw Yan Beichen, because she had seen Yan Beichen before, and she saw him in Jiangning City!

She really never dreamed that the man who helped her bring down that group of people in the alley of Jiangning City that day was Yan Beichen.

There are countless questions in my mind, but now is not the time to ask them.

Gu Xiaowu just looked at Yan Beichen a few more times, and then walked over in silence.

Like Gu Xiaowu, Yan Beichen was also very puzzled, saving her that day was just a matter of convenience.

I never thought that they would meet again, and it was still in Yuecheng, the General's Mansion.

He shook his head, leaving behind the question of why this woman was here, he had more important things to do now.

It had been an hour since Yan Beichen came out of the room again, and when he passed the front hall, he once gave Gu Xiaowu a meaningful look, which made Gu Xiaowu's heart tremble.

After returning to the Seventh Prince's Mansion, the first thing Yan Beichen did was to write a note, and then quickly passed it to someone in Jiangning City.

All of this is unknown to Gu Xiaowu.
