Value peace

Chapter 72

The two hurried back to Wu Garden, Liu Zuocheng came in with joy and made a bow to Gu Xiyan, which made Gu Xiyan's heart hanging in the air even more uneasy.

Mo Ju served Liu Zuocheng tea and stepped back. Liu Zuocheng couldn't hide his excitement, and whispered, "Second Miss, I didn't expect you to know Lord Yan."

When Gu Xiyan heard this, she couldn't help it anymore, the corners of her eyes were moist, like a person who walked through the desert Gobi and suddenly saw an oasis.

This guy, really lucky and fateful, still appeared in the prisoner offering ceremony after all.

Liu Zuocheng shrewdly observed Gu Xiyan's expression, and said cautiously: "Look, this matter about the Liu family..."

Gu Xiyan quickly suppressed the excitement in her heart, and said, "I don't know if there is anything I can do to help you?"

Liu Zuocheng hurriedly said: "Can you please ask the girl to come. I have already inquired, and Yan Guogong lives in the Siyi Pavilion not far from here..."

Gu Xiyan smiled reservedly: "Qiye, it's not that I don't want to help you, I really can't help you. I told you last time that I just promised a favor to my acquaintances. I and Yan Guo I don't know each other. What's more, everyone has different identities, which is really inconvenient..."

Liu Zuocheng was very disappointed, and asked Gu Xiyan for the names of his acquaintances. Gu Xiyan said that it was Mr. Huang from the Longevity Class.Liu Zuocheng couldn't sit still when he heard it, and left in a hurry.

After sending Liu Zuocheng away, Gu Xiyan couldn't help jumping up and shouting "Hi".

Whelan smiled and said, "Girl, what's wrong?"

Gu Xiyan froze there when she heard the words.

Yes, what happened to me.

That person is now Qi Hao, Duke of Yan, not Qi Maosheng who lives in Dicui Pavilion.Between two people, like clouds and mud, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers...

Gu Xiyan lay down on the bed in dismay, feeling that all the strength in her body had been sucked out.

How did Qi Hao escape?He must have killed the funeral attendees!He hadn't finished admitting to the Liu family at that time, now that he was out of danger, would he still admit it?Ding Cuiniang said that Liu Zuocheng's direct brother is still locked in the prison in Yandi, if that guy refuses to admit it, what should he do?

Gu Xiyan was happy and sad for a while, and spent the whole afternoon in a chaotic state.

While lighting the lamps, it suddenly rained in the sky. It started to rain heavily, and then it became bigger and bigger, with dark clouds covering the top, lightning and thunder, and the rain seemed to be pouring.

The boy watching the fun came back and told Gu Xiyan: "...the one sitting on the big horse is Duke Yan. He is an old man, tall, dark, thin, with white hair..."

Gu Xiyan shuddered.

In his own eyes, Qi Maosheng is handsome, majestic, dignified and cold, but in the eyes of others, he is a plain old man.

She couldn't avoid a message in her panic.

Could it be that my affection for this person has reached the point where I have no position and no principles!

Gu Xiyan wrapped herself in the quilt like a cocoon.

What's so good about him?
My wife ran away with her lover, and there is a daughter, the family is complicated; I fought against the court, but also destroyed a country, and my career was unstable; not only lied to me, but also lied to Liu Zuocheng, a cunning and treacherous man...

Gu Xiyan rolled around wrapped in the quilt, as if she was a caterpillar that didn't know how to think.

After rolling a few times, a force grabbed the corner of the quilt, and the quilt suddenly fell apart, and the damp air from the rain poured on her body.

Gu Xiyan couldn't help but suddenly raised her head, a huge black shadow was covering her, and a soft voice whispered: "It's me, Qi Maosheng."

Gu Xiyan jumped up from the bed suddenly, thinking of her thoughts just now, she couldn't help stammering: "You, why are you here?" As she spoke, she glanced behind him. heavy rain.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, it is suitable for killing people, and it is also suitable for...well, cheating!
Gu Xiyan's face suddenly became hot.

When Qi Maosheng came in, he heard Gu Xiyan moaning while wrapped in the quilt.

Is it sick!

He looked left and right, but there was no one waiting in the room.In a panic, he tugged at the corner of the quilt and shook it, Gu Xiyan rolled out like a child, her straight nose was red, her big eyes were full of fear, she looked innocently like a small animal caught in a trap. with him.Knowing that she was backlit and couldn't see clearly, he hurriedly called her name.Gu Xiyan jumped up suddenly, her plump breasts were trembling, her skirt was lifted up, and her slender waist exposed a large amount of fair and smooth skin.

In an instant, all the blood in his body rushed to one place, and an embarrassing situation appeared in his body.

His whole body was stiff, he rolled his eyes uncomfortably, and explained with a guilty conscience: "I just finished attending the imperial banquet, and tomorrow morning the Empress will meet me in the upper study, and I will go back to Yandi after asking questions..."

"Why are you going back so soon!" Gu Xiyan sighed, with a sad tone and infinite nostalgia.

Qi Maosheng's heart fluttered when he heard it, and he felt a thousand tenderness in his chest, and he whispered unsuspectingly: "I'm not safe here..."

Not safe!
When Gu Xiyan heard the words, she immediately contacted Qi Maosheng to hide from the Dicui Pavilion. A fire seemed to ignite in her heart, her black and white clear eyes widened, full of grievances: "You, why did you lie to me?"

Qi Maosheng suddenly said, "When did I lie to you?"

Gu Xiyan blushed even more.Just now he was shy, but this time he was angry: "You said you were the second son of Duke Yan, and that your name was Qi Maosheng..."

Qi Maosheng frowned slightly: "My father, Qi Yu, was the No. 18 Duke of Yan in the Xizhao Dynasty. I am his second son, Qi Hao, and my baby name is Maosheng."

"I, I, I...you, you, you..." Gu Xiyan's eyes were wet, she didn't know whether to blame herself for being stupid or Qi Maosheng for inducing her.

Seeing this, Qi Maosheng's expression darkened, and his voice was cold: "Put the quilt on!"

"Ah!" In this weather, cover yourself with a quilt?
This guy, who was fine just now, changed his face after questioning him, and found another shortcoming in him, moody, bad temper...

Gu Xiyan pouted unwillingly.

Light and soft pink lips, as delicate as flowers.

Qi Maosheng's heart was agitated again.

Gu Xiyan gave Qi Maosheng a blank look: "Okay, okay, okay, I'm stupid. Then let me ask you, why are you here?"

Poor Qi Maosheng only saw those pink lips opening and closing, and had no idea what Gu Xiyan said.

Gu Xiyan was a little annoyed, she stood on the bed and bowed her head and called "Hi" in Qi Maosheng's ear.

Qi Maosheng only felt that the dark fragrance was full of movement, sweet and soft, rushing towards his face, which made him confused and didn't know why.If it wasn't for someone yelling loudly in his ear, it would be impossible for him to come to Qingming soon.

It's ridiculous!
Qi Maosheng was very dissatisfied with the collapse of his concentration that he had always been proud of.

His face immediately became solemn and cold, and he picked out a thread from his already messy thoughts, and said coldly: "I have already asked people to take care of the Liu family's affairs, so they can rest assured. As for the matter they mentioned deal, we will talk about the details when I return to Yandi."

Did you come here for this?
Gu Xiyan ran to the Java field full of joy, her heart was sour, and she couldn't hide her loss.

Mastering people's hearts is one of the basic qualities that an excellent leader should possess.Qi Maosheng immediately felt the change in Gu Xiyan's mood, and he was a little dazed.

How did you do it? It was fine just now, but suddenly I became unhappy again.

He remembered that when he was in Dicui Pavilion, whenever he smiled, the confusion in Gu Xiyan's eyes flickered, very cute, embarrassed like a lost little animal.

Qi Maosheng couldn't help but smiled knowingly, revealing a warm smile that he didn't even notice.

"Boom..." There was a burst of lightning and thunder, illuminating the room like daytime.

With the help of lightning, Gu Xiyan could see clearly, she couldn't help but feel warm, and made excuses for Qi Maosheng.

No one can stand without trust, since he agreed to the Liu family, of course he should deal with this matter as soon as possible.You can only blame yourself... thinking too much!
With the help of lightning, Qi Maosheng could also see clearly, and Gu Xiyan's eyes flashed with that bewildered brilliance again.

With a thought in his heart, those plots in Dicui Pavilion that he had no time to think about came to his mind, forming a signal intermittently.

He took a step forward to the edge of the bed strings, separated Gu Xiyan's finger distance, and lowered his voice: "Why are you unhappy?" The mellow voice was like a cello crooning in this rainy night, with a bewildering taste , Destroy the mind of man.

Gu Xiyan let out a bewildered "ah" and looked at him in bewilderment.

Qi Maosheng felt that something in his heart collapsed with a bang, and his ears rang like drums.

There was another burst of lightning and thunder, and the room was instantly white as day.

Shocked by the sound, the two woke up from the trance, and looked at the rain scene outside the window at the same time in embarrassment.

The straight rain track falls from the sky like a waterfall, weaving into a dense water network. The whole Wuyuan Garden is under the dense water vapor, and the water splashed on the bluestone board shoots like arrows. , From time to time, it makes a noisy "cracking" sound, like a string that is out of tune.

Gu Xiyan noticed that the window lattice on the west was half-closed, and a splash of water splashed in.

She walked over, gently covered the window lattice, and also shut out the chaotic sound of the rain. The room immediately became quiet, and the sound of the rain was as far away as it was ringing in the sky.

Hearing the muffled sound of rain, Qi Maosheng suddenly felt that this small space had become a corner of the world, shutting out all the wind and rain and stormy waves... It made him feel comfortable and peaceful.

"It's raining so hard, how are you going to go back?" Gu Xiyan's voice was full of worry, "It would be bad if someone found out!"

Qi Maosheng's face was solemn, and he looked at Gu Xiyan fixedly.

He remembered how he felt when he hid under the seat of Gu's carriage after being injured that day.
