Chapter 161 Rumors
"How did he get here so quickly?"
Looking at Gu Wuhui's back gradually disappearing in the wind and snow, Gu Jue felt a little unbelievable.
Gu Wuhui arrived almost as soon as they entered the house.
Yu Chi's eyes fell on the teacup between his fingers and chuckled.
"Because Songxuelou is Gu Wuhui's business."
However, few people know this, which is why Gu Wuhui likes to go to Songxuelou, because Songxuelou is the teahouse with the best business in Shangjing, so even if Gu Wuhui often goes there, no one will suspect it. Gu Wuhui
was not outstanding at the beginning, so no one cared about his love for drinking tea and listening to stories.
Gu Wuji invited Yu Chi to Songxue Tower to talk, which was just like trying to pry open a corner under Gu Wuhui's nose.
"Then how did you know, did Gu Wuhui tell you?"
Gu Jue tilted his head, which was supported by his hands, and looked at Yu Chi, who raised his eyebrows.
"No, I found out from Jiyue Pavilion."
Gu Jue retracted his gaze.
Well, he forgot that Yu Chi was also an intelligence dealer.
That afternoon, after the snow stopped, a ray of warm sunlight shone through the layers of clouds.
Gu Wuji brought people and held gifts in his hands to visit the General's Mansion of Zhenguo in person.
Yu Jianghe came to greet him in person, the smile on his face was fake, and the movements of his hands were respectful.
There was no way, Yu Jianghe knew more or less about Yu Hexi's previous affairs, so he still disliked Gu Wuji more or less.
But there was no way, Gu Wuji was a prince, and he still had to be polite.
But when he learned that Gu Wuji was looking for Yu Hexi, the smile on his face almost fell off, and he stiffened a little.
"Your Highness the Second Prince, my daughter is engaged to the Seventh Prince, and the wedding is imminent. It's not appropriate for you to see her alone, right?"
Gu Wuji also had a smile on his face.
"Aren't you still here, General Yu?"
"..."
Yu Jianghe's mouth twitched.
"I am here, but my daughter is not here. She went shopping."
He showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. Who would have thought that when he turned his head, he saw Yu Hexi who had returned from afar, with servants behind him carrying large and small bags.
Fortunately, Gu Wuji had his back to Yu Hexi. Yu Jianghe kept smiling, and his hands were waving wildly.
It was unknown whether Yu Hexi saw it or not, or was still walking towards this side.
Yu Jianghe's hands were about to cramp. Gu Wuji glanced at his wildly waving hands and asked him.
"General Yu, what's wrong with your hand?"
Yu Jianghe laughed dryly.
"Cramps, cramps."
"Father, if you have cramps, let the court doctor take a look, don't force yourself."
Yu Hexi's voice came over, and Gu Wuji responded by turning around and seeing the woman who was still beautiful.
But she was more mature than a few years ago.
Yu Jianghe raised his hands to cover his face in frustration. If Gu Wuji hadn't been here, he would have asked Yu Hexi what she thought.
At the beginning, Gu Wuji's pursuit of Yu Hexi was so much that everyone in Shangjing knew about it. At that time, there were all kinds of rumors about Yu Hexi and Gu Wuji.
Yu Hexi even left Shangjing directly. Yu Jianghe disliked the Second Prince very much at that time, for no other reason.
Gu Wuji's pursuit of Yu Hexi was known to the whole city, and he didn't care about Yu Hexi's reputation at all. He had been a soldier all his life, and he only had Yu Hexi as his concubine.
He was afraid of dropping her if he held her in his hands, and afraid of melting her if he held her in his mouth.
Later, Yu Hexi and Gu Wuhui were arranged to be married by the emperor. Yu Hexi ran away from the marriage, and he knew about it, but he didn't stop her.
Who would have thought that Yu Hexi would come back on her own and tell him that she was willing to marry Gu Wuhui.
He thought it was novel at the time, but later, after listening to Yu Hexi talk about the fate between her and Gu Wuhui, Yu Jianghe felt that he could accept it.
It's just that compared with Gu Wuji, Gu Wuhui is much better.
Now that the two are about to get married, and everything is almost ready, Gu Wuji came to ask for an audience with Yu Hexi.
Yu Hexi walked to Yu Jianghe's side and glanced at Gu Wuji.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, I know about your situation."
Her words made Gu Wuji's eyes light up and ignited a glimmer of hope. Who knew that the next moment, Yu Hexi poured a basin of cold water on him.
"Sorry, I don't want to."
Gu Wuji's expression froze and he almost fainted. Yu Jianghe didn't quite understand what they were talking about.
"Why?"
"No reason."
She thought that she and Gu Wuji had no relationship and no intersection, so why should she use her own face to let Yu Chi save Gu Wuji.
Moreover, she knew that Yu Chi said that just to vent his anger. After all, Gu Wuji's behavior at that time was simply a nagging and a tarnishing of a lady from a noble family.
"Why do you have to be so cruel? After all, we are a family soon, right, seventh sister-
in-law?" The last word "seventh sister-in-law" was said by Gu Wuji with gritted teeth, with quite a bit of resentment in it.
He knew that since Yu Chi said that, as long as Yu Hexi nodded, Yu Chi would definitely help him.
After all, a gentleman's words are spoken and cannot be taken back.
Yu Hexi was about to enter the mansion, stroking Yu Jianghe's hand, but when she heard this, she stopped and turned back slightly.
"Since we are family, why don't you ask Wu Hui for help? Yu Chi is his best friend. His words are more effective than mine, aren't they?"
Then he didn't give Gu Wu Ji a chance to speak again. He turned around and asked someone to close the door.
Yu Chi sneezed on the other side. He sniffed and frowned slightly. Gu
Jue beside him held his cloak and refilled him with a cup of hot tea.
"Did you catch a cold?"
Yu Chi shook his head in denial.
"No." He
probably thought someone was scolding him behind his back, and he could guess who it was without thinking.
A gentleman's words are as good as gold.
This sentence may be used to describe other people, but to describe Yu Chi...
he never thought that he was a gentleman.
The wedding date of Gu Wuhui and Yu Hexi was getting closer and closer, and the wedding dresses had been made and they had taken them back.
Even Ran Yue Tower had sent their various hair accessories over, but they were sent to Mo Xue Ju.
Yu Chi stared at the table full of various hairpins and pearl hairpins, his eyes twitched, and he asked Gu Jue to send a message to Yu Hexi, and he went to call Gu Wuhui.
Yu Hexi was particularly satisfied when she looked at the hairpins, and took a few people to take the things back carefully.
As for why they were sent to Mo Xue Ju, the reason was that the people in Ran Yue Lou felt that since it was Yu Chi who put forward the order, they should send it to Yu Chi.
Secondly, they could also admire the elegance of the owner of the pavilion.
But for some reason, as the wedding date was approaching, there were suddenly many rumors in Shangjing.
Most of them were about Yu Chi and Yu Hexi.
Even some storytellers in teahouses used them as after-dinner jokes and told them about them.
Only Song Xue Lou didn't say anything, not because they were unwilling, but because they didn't dare. After all, Yu Hexi was their employer's bride-to-be.
In the private room on the second floor of Songxue Building, Gu Wuhui laughed angrily when he heard those rumors.
Yu Chi sat opposite him, drinking tea calmly, but his eyes kept drifting to Gu Jue beside him.
Yu Hexi sighed.
"I don't know who spread it."
Yu Chi said lightly, and Gu Wuhui spoke at the same time.
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Gu Wuji!"
Who else could it be except him?
Both of them were thinking about how to return the favor to Gu Wuji. When the sun set, they said goodbye and went home.
When they went to bed at night, Gu Jue turned his back to Yu Chi. Yu Chi turned over and hugged him in his arms, calling him by the back of Gu Jue's neck.
"Ajue, are you asleep?"
"No, what's wrong?"
"Are you unhappy?"
Gujue paused, groped in the dark and turned over, facing Yu Chi.
"Why do you think I'm unhappy?"
Yu Chi sighed.
"I'm afraid you'll think of some unpleasant past events."
He remembered that this little fool was very jealous. Now that rumors were spreading all over Shangjing, he was afraid that Gujue would think too much.
But he never thought that Gujue laughed, and his shoulders were shaking with laughter.
Yu Chi was puzzled.
"What are you laughing at?"
"No, Ah Heng, I won't be unhappy."
He is no longer the young self who was in love for the first time. At that time, he was wavering in his heart, with feelings in his heart, but it was difficult to speak.
But now, Yu Chi has given him enough courage, making him confident and more determined.
What others say has nothing to do with him.
He only cares about what Yu Chi says.
