Chapter 105 It's just the wrong time, not the wrong person...
Seeing the surprise flash in Ran Qingxuan's eyes, Gu Yanchen tapped his chin lightly, confirming her guess.
"Who is it?"
"He is my eldest brother. He led me, who was fifteen years old at the time, to win the first battle in my life. But he fell into a coma that night, and half a month after he woke up, he developed the same symptoms as Qi Mingjing.
At that time, I just thought that my elder brother had an acute illness and did not associate it with the Blue Rain Royal Family. After Emperor Mingde learned about it, he sent half of the imperial doctors in the imperial city to treat him, but at that time no one knew the cause of his illness. ”
Gu Yanchen's face showed pain, an indescribable discomfort surged from the bottom of his heart and rushed to his throat.
My throat felt as if there was a ball of cotton stuck in it. With overwhelming hatred in my eyes, I clenched my hands tightly.
Ran Qingxuan couldn't bear it, so he gently pried open his palm and took out iodine to wipe it carefully.
"Their deaths will not be in vain. One day, I will make the Blue Rain Royal Family kneel down and repent in front of the graves of the Gu family men!"
Although the words seemed casual and unrealistic, the tone was more firm than ever before.
The person who was speaking was thin, with a few strands of hair sticking to his forehead in a messy manner. His cold, beautiful, yet pale face fell into his eyes, and Gu Yanchen suddenly felt a sour feeling in his heart.
Originally, she shouldn't have had such a tragic ending, and now he didn't want to put Ran Qingxuan in danger even more.
"You don't need to do anything dangerous like this, I will do it myself!"
"Tsk, what's the difference between you doing it yourself and me doing it? You must have forgotten that we are husband and wife. No matter what you do, even if it means going through fire and water, I will have a part in it!"
Ran Qingxuan put on the last bandage and the moment he looked up, he met a pair of eyes as deep as a pool of water.
The tenderness and tenderness in his eyes seemed to overwhelm her, making people unable to look away.
The unexpected kiss made Ran Qingxuan's brain freeze. It passed by like a dragonfly skimming the water, but with endless reluctance.
When everything calmed down, Gu Yanchen's voice was cold and a little hoarse when he spoke.
"My lady has treated me so well, and as a husband, I will never let this sincerity go to waste!"
Ran Qingxuan admitted that she could not resist the feeling of being broken from a man. That fatal temptation was like poison that controlled her whole body...
Naturally, when a man who was originally as cold as water suddenly had eyes full of love, she could not resist that kind of affection...
Ran Qingxuan admitted that she was indeed a little moved, but not to the extent of being in love...
After all, it's just the wrong time, not the wrong person...
People were coming and going on the street, and from time to time someone would glance sideways at the donkey cart. After moving away for a certain distance, Ran Qingxuan sat back in the donkey cart with a red face.
The relationship between the two became much closer at this moment. After Ran Qingxuan calmed down, he went to a nearby cloth shop and not only bought slightly thicker cloth but also bought more than 30 quilts.
She didn't buy all thick ones, after all, the space in the donkey cart was limited, so she bought half thin and half thick. The thin ones were used to spread on the ground, and the thick ones were used to cover.
As for the cloth she bought, she planned to distribute it to everyone so that they could make their own clothes before the weather got completely cold. After all, they would be on the road for ten days or half a month, and there would be no conditions to buy ready-made clothes.
Moreover, clothes made by herself would not arouse suspicion. When it was extremely cold, she could just secretly take out warm clothes, and no one would notice when she wore them next to her skin.
He bought some more bits and pieces until the donkey cart was almost full, and then Ran Qingxuan prepared to go back to the inn.
Because of the sudden kiss just now, Ran Qingxuan did not mention the matter of Blood Evil to Gu Yanchen for the time being, until they returned to the place where they had originally agreed to meet with He Xun.
But as time passed, and He Xun had not returned after an hour as agreed, Ran Qingxuan knew something had happened.
"An Yi and the others haven't replied yet?"
Gu Yanchen had already ordered people to follow up, but after such a long time there is still no news, which is a bit worrying.
Gu Yanchen drove the donkey cart to the entrance of the alley, turned around and asked quietly on the intercom, but the response he got was speechless.
"That officer entered Yanliu Lane and never came out again..."
That's an hour...
Ran Qingxuan was shocked but then felt relieved, thinking that He Xun was a little slow in shopping alone, so he was delayed for a while.
The two men sat on the donkey cart in silence. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, they decided to go back first.
But the further he walked back, the more inexplicably anxious Ran Qingxuan felt.
She always felt like something was going to happen...
Judging from He Xun's personality, he is not the kind of person who is unpunctual. Besides, he was just going to buy some dry food, so he should be much faster than them.
Thinking of this, Ran Qingxuan immediately asked Gu Yanchen to drive the donkey cart faster, and at the same time took the intercom and ordered: "An Yi, take someone to check immediately to make sure that the person is still inside!"
"..." There was a sound of electricity coming from the intercom, but no one spoke.
Just when Ran Qingxuan thought that the intercom was broken, Gu Yanchen, who was sitting next to him, spoke in a cold voice.
"Do as Madam says. If you hesitate again next time, you will be punished..."
"yes!"
Ran Qingxuan didn’t have time to care about the matters between master and servant. The closer she got to the inn, the more anxious she became.
When they were about ten meters away from the inn, the intercom rang.
"Master, I don't know when the person ran away..."
The two looked at each other, and Ran Qingxuan's eyes were full of horror.
At this moment, a group of officials quickly rushed out from the door of the inn in front, led by Bu Wei and Dai Kun.
Bu Wei had a gloomy face, while Dai Kun kept saying something on the side.
Hearing the sound of the donkey cart moving, Dai Kun looked up and saw two people sitting on the donkey cart.
After getting closer, Dai Kun pulled out the whip and hit her in the face without waiting for Ran Qingxuan to ask.
Ran Qingxuan had no internal strength, but his reaction speed was not to be underestimated. The moment he jumped off the donkey cart, he rolled on the ground, and the whip hit the donkey cart frame solidly.
The flying wood chips indicated how powerful the whip was. Gu Yanchen, who was sitting next to him, dodged it and suppressed his urge to go forward to help.
After all, in the eyes of these officers, he was still an "extremely weak" injured person.
While worried, Gu Yanchen pretended to stagger out of the car and stood beside Ran Qingxuan.
But before he could help the man up, Dai Kun whipped him again and shouted, "You Ran, you dared to trick us into running away. I will teach you a lesson today."
Dai Kun's face was ferocious, and he waved the whip in his hand and kept whipping Ran Qingxuan. At first glance, it seemed as if what was happening was really true.
Ran Qingxuan was beaten before he could even say a word when he walked up to him. He felt very aggrieved. When he saw that Dai Kun was ruthless in his attack, he became even more angry.
Seeing that Gu Yanchen could not help but attack, Ran Qingxuan immediately stood up and stretched out his hand to pull him to the side. He grabbed his right wrist and with just a little effort, he threw Dai Kun, who was on the other end of the whip, away.
