Chapter 040 Kicked into the River
Chapter 040 Kicked into the River
However, among the few people, Gu Zilu saw it most clearly.
This child is the youngest, but also the smartest. He is just introverted. His eyes are sparkling and he moves around but he never says a word.
"Mom, your son has peeled the peaches for you."
Gu Zilu handed the cut peaches to Su Jin, who ate them one by one, enjoying them very much.
She glanced back and found that Minister Chen's family and Lin Wanhui and her son were gone. Obviously, no one was in the mood to continue listening to the music. Only Lin Yousheng and Gu Suiyu were still there. Her eyelids twitched when she saw her daughter's frivolous look.
Forget it, I won’t watch it anymore. The more I watch it, the angrier I get.
Everyone was still discussing what had just happened, or discussing Xie Huaiguang's poems. Just when everyone had relaxed and were chatting casually, several dark shadows suddenly jumped out from the bottom of the river, holding shining knives, and headed straight for the flower boat in the middle of the river.
"ah!"
Screams were heard in the noisy poetry gathering, and the smell of blood wafted into the air after the flash of swords and sabers. Frightened, Jin Chuan quickly took Su Jin outside. At this time, the sound of someone falling into the river was heard. Some people were shouting for help, some were crying loudly, and then there was another splash. Su Jin turned around and saw the male protagonist jumping into the water to save people.
Tsk, this is where the hero saved the emperor!
Looking back at his son's frightened face, Su Jin shook off Jin Chuan's hand, and without saying a word, he kicked Gu Zixuan into the river.
Gu Zixuan:!!!
Mother?!!!
Jin Chuan & Gu Zilu & everyone around: ???
Big lady!!!
What are you doing? He's your own son. Even if you don't want him, you can't kick him into the river!
In the chaos, Su Jin shouted: "Gu Zixuan, go save them and let others see it. Even if you can't write poetry, it doesn't matter. The men in our Yong'an Marquis Mansion are full of vigor and vitality!"
Gu Zixuan, who had already fallen into the water: ...
Now, he didn't even have the chance to climb back onto the boat. If he did, wouldn't that mean he had lost his vitality? He was not good at writing and had no vitality, so wouldn't he really become a useless fool?
Gu Zixuan could only turn his head and swim deeper. He remembered that the person fell into the water nearby.
Turning his head, he saw his classmate Xie Huaiguang already pulling a man out of the water, but he looked very exhausted, and with assassins constantly rushing towards him, it was very difficult for him to hide. Gu Zixuan rushed over without saying a word, picked up the fallen wooden sticks on the way, and hit them one by one, and took Xie Huaiguang to the shore: "Hurry, you go first!"
Xie Huaiguang was a little surprised. After all, the two people had no intersection. One was a poor boy and the other was a playboy. But who would have thought that everyone left and only the playboy Gu Zixuan stayed to help him.
"Okay, Brother Gu, be careful!"
The two of them worked together to push the drowned man ashore. Many soldiers came from nowhere and immediately surrounded the place. The leading soldier knelt down in front of the person in Xie Huaiguang's arms and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I am late in coming to your rescue, and I deserve to die!"
Your Majesty?!
Xie Huaiguang and Gu Zixuan were both stunned. Gu Zixuan turned around to look at his own flower boat, only to see his mother, who was supposed to escape with Jin Chuan, secretly lying on the boat and peeping at them. Her eyes were flashing with the bright light of gossip.
Su Jin: Oh my god, this is the emperor. This is what the emperor looks like. Hahahaha. I actually got to see a living emperor in my lifetime. It was worth it! !
Gu Zixuan: ...
"Your Majesty, I am too late to save you!"
Officials kept gathering, and irrelevant people were driven away by officers and soldiers. Su Jin was also driven off the flower boat and could only follow Jin Chuan out while complaining.
Su Jin patted his chest and said, "Forget it, at least I got to see the emperor, it's not a loss."
I saw the male lead, but not the female lead, and I don’t know where she is now.
However, it doesn’t matter whether I meet her or not. After all, I am just a passerby, a bystander. I have nothing to do with the heroine’s grievances and love.
Well, that’s great. I’ll go back and drink a big bowl of hot milk, then have a good sleep.
"Madam, Brother Xuan is still inside."
Jin Chuan looked worried. Compared to Su Jin, Jin Chuan acted more like a mother. However, Su Jin waved her hands and said, "It's okay. Don't wait for him. Let's go back home first."
What a joke, Gu Zixuan saved the emperor, what could go wrong?
The group hurried back home, and the poetry gathering ended abruptly.
When walking towards the back house, Su Jin saw Gu Changqing again. At this moment, he was talking to Lin Wanhui under the moon gate. Suddenly, the three of them looked at each other. Su Jin acted as if he didn't see the two of them. He walked without looking around, and even secretly urged Jin Chuan to walk faster.
Gu Changqing who was ignored: ...
"Su Jin!"
He called Su Jin, and Su Jin could only stop and turned to look at him coldly: "What's the matter?"
"Is this your attitude?!"
Gu Changqing always thought that Su Jin was attentive to him, otherwise he would not have competed for his favor. But recently Su Jin has been terribly cold, as if he were a stranger.
"My husband has not come to Liuting Pavilion once in three years. My attitude is just to cater to my husband's indifference. I am not feeling well, and the imperial physician won't let me stay outside for long. I am leaving first."
After saying this, he left very neatly.
All of this was seen by Lin Wanhui. She saw Gu Changqing staring at Su Jin's back and bit her lips unwillingly.
"My dear husband, Brother Xuan has been framed and I am in a bad mood. Please don't blame me..."
Gu Changqing really remembered Su Jin's ridicule towards him today. The man rubbed his brow and said, "I'm tired too. Wanhui, go back and have a rest."
After saying that, he took the servant back to his own courtyard and did not go to Lin Wanhui's Luoxuexuan.
Lin Wanhui was so angry. What did Su Jin say to Gu Changqing at the poetry meeting?
Why doesn’t my husband come to my place anymore?
Damn it.
Gu Changqing didn't sleep well that night. He was waiting in the room for news of Gu Zixuan's return.
When he learned that Gu Zixuan had returned, he went out to meet his son in person without saying a word.
"Zixuan, wait a minute."
It was obvious that Gu Zixuan had changed his clothes. Although the color of the clothes was an ordinary color, the faint gold thread flowing inside showed how precious the clothes were.
When Gu Changqing thought about how the child saved the emperor, he didn't know what to say.
"Father, it's alright. I'm going back now. I'm tired and want to rest early."
Gu Zixuan's voice was faint, with a hint of indifference and alienation.
Gu Changqing was startled, then he said: "You saved the emperor, did the emperor say anything?"
"Father just wanted to ask this?" Gu Zixuan slowly took a step back, a sneer on his lips, his eyes cold, which made Gu Changqing subconsciously avoid his son's sight.
"No, I want to ask..." Gu Changqing felt that he was a father after all, and he shouldn't give in like this, so he simply straightened his chest and said in a cold voice: "Since you and Mu Yanluo have nothing, then the marriage with the Shangshu family's daughter should continue."
Gu Zixuan seemed to have heard some huge joke.
"continue?"
