The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 51 Gu Che
The 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

The carriage stopped in front of Gu's mansion, Yin Qiao and Lian Zhi got out of the car and put the floor mats on first, then helped Yun Ruochen down from left to right.

"Princess, slide up carefully."

Yun Ruochen nodded, and supported Yinqiao's hand to step up the steps of Gu's mansion.After they finished walking the last stone steps, an old man came out of the gatehouse and asked who the visitor was.

Yun Ruochen saw that the old man was wearing a padded robe that was not old, and his expression was peaceful. He didn't look like a slave of a high-ranking official's family at all, and he had a new understanding of the Gu family's family style.

It seems that Gu Ge is always so pure and noble, that's why he is so informal.Some officials of the fourth and fifth ranks, the battles in the family are extremely serious, and there are seven or eight house servants sitting in the gatehouse, and they will not notify you if the door is not sealed when the guests come.Mr. Gu Yuan is in a high position, but he doesn't like to show off, which is really rare.

However, how long can a person who is too lofty and noble can go in this officialdom that places more emphasis on being in harmony with others?Yun Ruochen really didn't have much confidence.

The long entourage who followed Yun Ruochen handed over the greeting card, and the old Cangtou showed a bit of surprise, and hurried over to say hello to Yun Ruochen.

Princess Huarong came to Gu's residence, and the Gu family did not dare to neglect.

The old Cangtou hurriedly invited Yun Ruochen and his party in, and ran in small steps to ask someone to come in to inform Gu Ge that he was old.

It is said that the palace of the gods in the sky is the home of the prime minister on earth.Although the elders of the cabinet do not have the name of prime minister, they have the reality of prime minister.

However, the Gu family's courtyard does not have the rich and luxurious atmosphere of the "immortal cave" at all. It is just an ordinary four-entry house.Some yards, although they are not big, have ingenious owners, and can arrange the gardens exquisitely, with lush flowers and trees, and the Gu family is not in this category.

"Mr. Gu is really a pragmatic and good official."

Yun Ruochen admired without sincerity in her heart, in her opinion, it means that Gu Ge is always an old man who has no interest in life... But such a person is easier to deal with, she likes it.

Under the guidance of the old man, Yun Ruochen walked around the screen wall of the outer courtyard, and suddenly heard a commotion.

"Oh, hurry up and call Steward Fu, another one was injured..."

"Are there any mistakes? What's the number..."

"I can't help it, young master..."

"Ahhhh..."

Several brown-clothed servants were running in the yard, looking flustered, as if something important had happened at home.

Uh, what's going on?

Yun Ruochen looked curiously at the old man who was leading the way, and saw that the old servant had an embarrassed expression on his face, and he couldn't say anything but just smiled foolishly.

Then, she saw a male servant with drooping arms being helped by someone walking past, and he couldn't stop grunting.

Could it be that the master of the Gu family is punishing the servants?Then there's no need to make such a mess.Although she thinks that the Gu family's family style is casual, but it's a bit weird to be so casual...

Yun Ruochen, who was well educated, planned to turn a blind eye to everything in front of him and continue walking towards the hall of the outer courtyard according to the established route.Seeing that Yun Ruochen didn't talk or ask, the old Cangtou breathed a sigh of relief, and quickened his pace to lead her forward.

Yinqiao frowned, this old man is really ignorant.Seeing that the snow is falling so heavily and the ground is slippery, how can I walk faster and faster.The body of the daughter of the princess, if it falls, it will be good.

Yun Ruochen lowered his head slightly, walked at his own pace, and still heard the servants running and talking in his ears.

"Okay, okay, I knew you guys were so impatient, so I won't ask you to practice with me next time! A bunch of useless things!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind her, and the whole yard resounded.

The voice seems to be quite young, it seems to belong to a young man who has not yet reached the stage of voice change, sharp and sharp, just by hearing the voice, you can tell that this boy has a bad temper.

"Hey, little girl, who are you?"

Just as Yun Ruochen heard the sound, he turned his head and glanced at the back, when the other party noticed that there was a guest coming, and greeted him from afar.

This time it's not just Yin Qiao, even Zhi can't help but look bad, this Gu family...why are they so unreliable?
Yun Ruochen didn't respond, but just stared at the young man who was walking towards her.

The young man's footsteps were fast, making a hasty rustling sound as he stepped on the snow.

That's a real teenager.

Seeing him for the first time, Yun Ruochen had only this thought in his mind.

She has actually seen quite a few young people in this world.Not to mention Ye Shenyan and Zhao Xuan who are more familiar, just the servants in his own family are better.

But among these boys, none of them can be like the young man in front of him, with the kind of vigor and vigor that can be clearly felt even in the snow.

He is about twelve or thirteen years old, but his stature is almost as tall as an adult.His appearance was not outstanding, neither Ye Shenyan's handsomeness nor Zhao Xuan's handsomeness, but it made people feel comfortable and pleasing to the eye.

Yes, a real teenager should be like this.Full of energy, laughing loudly, curious about everything and everyone.

In the world she used to live in, teenage boys should be like this, but here... this kind of natural temperament seems to be precious, but it makes people feel wild and uninhibited.

Yin Qiao and Lian Zhi were very nervous, they moved half a step forward to block Yun Ruochen, for fear that the young man would bump into the little princess.Yun Ruochen was a little funny, he just spoke directly without any malice.

The old Cangtou at the side hurriedly said in a low voice: "This is my young master."

Before he finished speaking, the young master of the Gu family had already walked in front of Yun Ruochen.

"Are you a relative of our family too? Which family's younger sister?"

The young man looked at her curiously with his arms folded, and said with a smile, "My name is Gu Che, what about you?"

Yun Ruochen smiled slightly, and looked around, Yinqiao hurriedly answered for her: "Young master of the Gu family, this is the Princess Huarong of Prince Jing's residence."

"Wangfu? Princess?"

Gu Che seemed a little disappointed. He was about to say something when he was suddenly stopped.

"Ache, don't be rude!"

Gu Gelao hurriedly arrived, holding the hem of his cotton robe.

"Grandfather, I'm not being rude."

Gu Che innocently shrugged his shoulders, turned around and wanted to leave, but was grabbed by the frantic old Gu Ge and greeted Yun Ruochen.

When Yun Ruochen found out that this boy was actually the only grandson of Mr. Gu Ge... Although it was not a surprise, he really felt that it was against his will!

How did the old-fashioned and serious Gu Ge raise such a... er, wild boy?
Are you sure you didn't hug the wrong grandson?Well, everyone delivers babies at their own homes these days, so the possibility of making a mistake is very small...
-
Gu Che, 12 years old, the eldest grandson of the Gu family.It is also the only remaining blood of the Gu family.

Mr. Gu Ge abided by Confucianism and never took concubines in his life. He only had two sons born to his wife.His eldest son inherited his talent for reading, but unfortunately died of illness after becoming a scholar.As for the youngest son, he doesn't like reading books at all. As a child of a scholarly family, he is a general.

There are frequent wars in the northern border of Daqing. General Gu has been guarding the border all year round, but he was injured by an arrow in a small battle last year.After dragging for more than ten days, General Gu passed away from his injuries.

Probably because of the good traditions of the Gu family, General Gu didn't take concubines, and he didn't even marry to fill in the house after his wife died.Gu Che was thrown in the barracks and grew up, eating, drinking and sleeping with the soldiers, and was not sent back to the capital until his father died.

"No wonder..."

Yun Ruochen recalled that when he first entered Gu's mansion, the servants were shouting, "Young master has injured another one", and Gu Che was also scolding them for "not being able to bear the beating". It is probably because this young man who is used to practicing martial arts in the military camp wanted the servants to accompany him to beat him. Bar?
Very energetic child ah, huh, huh.

When Gu Yuan and Yun Ruochen were gossiping, Gu Che didn't know where to go.It can be seen that Gu Yuan loves and hates this grandson, no different from ordinary grandfathers.

Being active proves that the child is healthy. Since Gu Che is the only heir of the Gu family, being healthy is certainly [-] times better than being sick.But Gu Che's "nonsense" must have caused Gu Ge's brain to be completely troubled!

In fact, Mr. Gu Ge was also inwardly muttering about the sudden visit of the little princess.

In the past, even if Prince Jing wanted to give him New Year's gifts, he would just send a servant to deliver them in a low-key manner. I'm afraid the emperor would not like him having close contacts with important officials in the court.How did you let the little princess come over this year?
Besides, if Yun Ruochen was the eldest son, it would be reasonable.Boys who are almost ten years old can replace their fathers in socializing on certain occasions.But Yun Ruochen is a daughter's family... This is not in line with etiquette.

Yun Ruochen also understood what Gu Ge was wondering about.

After chatting a lot of gossip, Yun Ruochen signaled Lian Zhi to hand her the box that he had been holding.

"Elder Ge, my father asked me to bring you some New Year's goods. There are not many things, please don't be disgusted... This is a list of New Year's gifts."

She gently placed the box on the table.Before Elder Gu Ge could say anything else, she said to the two servant girls, "You wait for me outside."

Yin Qiao and Lian Zhi hurriedly saluted the two of them, and went out lightly.Elder Gu Ge saw that there was something strange, and he also asked the servants who were waiting in the hall to retreat.

The hall was extremely quiet for a moment, and the sound of snow falling outside the window could even be heard.

"Elder Ge," Yun Ruochen got up and walked to him, raised his head and said in a low voice, "Father said, let me give you the list. He said, you will understand after reading the list."

"Father also said that the matter is urgent, so I can only be sent to handle it. I don't know what's going on, but I believe that Father will not talk nonsense."

"By the way, my father asked me to tell you about this matter...you can do it according to your will, but he doesn't know anything. What my father said is so strange, but that's exactly what he said..."

After Yun Ruochen finished speaking hastily, the expression on Gu Yuan's face became more serious.He took the box into his arms and wanted to open it, but Yun Ruochen hurriedly said: "Master Ge, you can take a closer look after I leave."

"I shouldn't delay you for too long, so I'll take my leave first."

"This..." Gu Yuan hesitated for a moment, finally nodded and said: "Okay, the old minister will send the princess off respectfully."

Gu Yuan kept his hands on the box and personally sent Yun Ruochen outside the hall.

Yun Ruochen had just stepped out of the hall, before he walked down the steps of the corridor, a dazzling golden light suddenly flashed before his eyes!
