Chapter 119 Childhood sweethearts meet without knowing each other
Mu Junyan sent the old lady back to her room, and the guests in the front hall also left one after another.
The Xuanyun Hall was still bustling at this moment. People from the Gu and Wang families rarely got together, and they were all happily discussing today's grand wedding banquet.
In their eyes, even if it is taking a concubine, it doesn't matter as long as it helps their family's future.
Mu Junyan walked towards Wenhanxuan, Chi Yan appeared quietly, quickening his pace to catch up.
"My Lord."
"What is it?"
"I found out something that's related to Aunt Huan."
Mu Junyan stopped and looked at him: "What's the matter?"
"It has been confirmed that Ji Xuanyu, who had known Aunt Huan since childhood, was killed by Aunt Pei."
Mu Junyan frowned: "Who can prove it?"
"Yinzhi said her mother said it herself, that in order to prevent Aunt Huan from escaping control, Aunt Pei bribed someone to trick Ji Xuanyu to the mountain and pushed him off the cliff to his death. My subordinates went there to investigate and found that a hunter had indeed seen Ji Xuanyu's body. They also said that someone from the Pei family had come to investigate. Later, they took back a piece of clothing that had been torn by wolves."
Mu Junyan's face was calm and his emotions could not be seen.
Gu Huan hated Aunt Pei and Gu Wanru to the core and wished she could trample them into the mud and tear them into pieces.
For this reason, she was willing to use desperate means to please him and take revenge on the Pei mother and daughter. Apart from the fact that Aunt Pei took her away, bullied her, and forced her to become Mu An's concubine to secure Gu Wanru's favor, what other reason was there?
Mu Junyan closed his eyelids and connected in his mind every little detail of his time with Gu Huan.
Is she trying to avenge Ji Xuanyu?
If I help her get back on track today and help her uncover the life stories of Pei and Gu Wanru, will she stay in the Duke's Mansion or leave?
Mu Junyan never thought that Gu Huanru was as obedient and timid as she appeared to be.
Otherwise, there would be no way she could escape from the robbers.
"Go and look after those people."
"Yes." Chi Yan turned and left.
"You go too."
Akabane guessed that his master didn't want anyone to disturb him and his bride from spending a beautiful night together, so he chuckled, turned around and ran away.
But he didn't dare to go far, so he just followed from a distance.
…
Gu Huan stood with her back to the man who sneaked into her room in the dark night for a quarter of an hour, cold sweat covering her clothes.
She had a hunch that the person coming was the one wearing the silver mask.
But it also feels ridiculous.
It was he who ordered his subordinates to insult her, and he was also responsible for saving her twice.
Remembering his eyes...
Could it be that he knew himself?
Suddenly, she heard footsteps approaching and the soft bed sank slightly.
He actually sat beside her bed!
Gu Huan's whole body was stiff, not daring to move.
This is a vicious and evil person!
After Ji Xuanyu blocked the flying arrow for her in front of the bridal sedan, he secretly warned himself to stay away from Huan'er.
But he couldn't help but follow quietly all the way.
After wandering outside the Duke Yong's Mansion for a long time, he finally couldn't help but want to see her.
He wanted to ask her.
If he were still alive, would the agreement we made still be valid?
He can't take her away now, but as long as she still has him in her heart, he will find a way to take her away and give her a stable and happy life, even if he has to go through fire and water.
Feeling the real lover lying on the bed and smelling her scent, Ji Xuanyu tried his best to control himself from touching her.
But he couldn't help but whispered, "Sister Huan."
When Gu Huan heard the voice, she felt like she was struck by lightning. She suddenly turned around and sat up, staring at the dark shadow beside the bed with wide eyes.
The two stared at each other across the dark space.
Gu Huan trembled and said, "Who are you?"
Why is the voice Brother Ji’s?
Ji Xuanyu suppressed the urge to hug the person in his arms: "I... am Ji Xuanyu."
"Brother Ji? Are you still alive?"
Gu Huan's blood seemed to freeze and her breathing stopped.
When Ji Xuanyu heard her changed tone of voice, he could imagine her excited and confused expression, and his heart felt warm.
She didn't forget herself.
"I'm lucky. I didn't die."
He tried to keep his tone calm.
"Brother Ji!" Gu Huan rushed over excitedly.
Ji Xuanyu's eyes were filled with tears and he opened his arms to catch the girl who was flying towards him, but the next moment she suddenly stopped and retreated back to the corner of the bed.
His arms were hanging in the air, his heart collapsed, he felt empty and extremely uncomfortable.
Gu Huan stared at the face in the darkness. She couldn't see his facial features, but she could feel that he was still burning with anger.
"Brother Ji, I, I..."
She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calm and smiling.
"Today, I am married as a concubine."
She is no longer worthy of the gentle and graceful Brother Ji.
Ji Xuanyu felt cold all over.
Is she willing?
He stood up slowly and bowed to Gu Huan, "I am sorry for being rude. Ji Xuanyu wishes you to be together forever, with endless springtime and abundant flowers, and a loving relationship between you and me!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
"Brother Ji!"
Gu Huan jumped up, rushed out of bed barefoot, and grabbed his arm.
Ji Xuanyu clenched his teeth tightly, without turning around, and said calmly: "Miss Gu Huan, you are now the concubine of the Duke of Yong, and you will be extremely rich in the future. I will never see you again."
Gu Huan felt so heartbroken that she could no longer control herself and started to cry quietly.
"Brother Ji, Huan'er risked her life to avenge you! Pei pushed you off the cliff because of me, and Huan'er owes you this. Huan'er had no choice but to end up like this."
Ji Xuanyu closed his eyes and bit his lips tightly. Soon, his mouth was filled with the smell of blood.
It's not the right time yet.
Huan'er, give your brother some time.
After I have dealt with the Pei family and Gu Wanru for you and cleared my own identity, I will come back to ask you about your feelings.
He knew that Mu Junyan would go to war tomorrow and Huan'er would not stay with him for too long.
He took a deep breath, turned around, and held the girl's violently shaking shoulders.
From his perspective, he could see her beautiful face in the moonlight, but his face was submerged in darkness and Gu Huan could not see his face.
He said softly, "Huan'er, I am no longer the old Brother Ji. I still have some things to deal with. You should stay in the Duke's Mansion and wait for me to come back. If you are still willing to go with me by then, I will definitely take you away."
Gu Huan's head was buzzing and she didn't listen carefully to what he said.
As if she was afraid that he would disappear again, she grabbed his sleeve tightly and said, "Brother Ji, where are you going? What are you doing now?"
Ji Xuanyu couldn't help himself, he reached out and touched her cheek, smiling and said: "I'm planning for our future."
"Master, Madam Huan has fallen asleep. I will go wake her up," Donghua's low voice came.
Then came the sound of the beaded curtain separating the inner room and outer hall.
Gu Huan was startled and subconsciously let go of her hand.
Ji Xuanyu's face darkened.
If someone found out that Huan'er was with him, and his identity was discovered, it would be very disadvantageous to Huan'er.
"I'll go first, we'll meet soon."
After Ji Xuanyu said this, he quickly jumped out from the back window.
Gu Huan stared blankly at the figure that disappeared in the blink of an eye...
How come Brother Ji knows martial arts?
Mu Junyan stood inside the beaded curtain, gently stroking it with his fingers, as if the wind was light and the clouds were light, but he did not go inside.
As a martial artist, he had sharp hearing. He noticed something strange as soon as he entered the yard. He flashed to the window of the inner room and heard the conversation in the bedroom clearly.
She risked her life just to avenge her childhood sweetheart, Brother Ji, right?
Ji Xuanyu is back, and she is going to live with him forever?
I see.
It turns out that she only has Ji Xuanyu in her heart, and she is just pretending to be nice to him!
good.
very good.
Mu Junyan's anger was on the verge of exploding, his clenched fists stiffened, his fingertips staring at the jade ring.
Click.
A slight, dark sound.
The jade ring shattered, and the jade piece pierced into the palm, and a bloody smell immediately filled the air.
Blood flowed out from the clenched palms and dripped onto the bluestone floor.
Illuminated by the dazzling palace lanterns, it gradually converged into a scarlet color.
shocking.
Mu Junyan felt no pain at all.
He used to think that Gu Huan was a cunning little woman who knew how to judge the situation, how to flatter, and how to show weakness to please others.
Starting with pity, she tested his bottom line step by step, and used her fragility and obedience to make him let down his guard step by step.
He was willing to protect her with his life and to plan for her.
But, she actually knows how to kill people and destroy their hearts.
