Chapter 227: A Little Disharmony
Gu Feixue still ignored it.
The eunuch pressed on step by step and was ready to warn.
"Our family..."
But at this moment, Gu Tingchuan could no longer bear it. He stood up and slapped him. The tremendous force was like a bolt from the blue. The old eunuch was in pain and Biang felt a buzzing sensation, and scattered like a swarm of bees.
"Ah, you! You despicable villain, are you plotting against our family?" The eunuch coughed, looking pitiful and embarrassed.
He spat out two bloody things, his front teeth.
"You have a foul mouth. I'm doing this for your own good." Gu Tingchuan was not afraid of the old eunuch at all.
The old eunuch shuddered and raised his index finger.
"Good man, you...what's your name?"
"If you ask one more question, I will punish you." Gu Tingchuan never had a good impression of these eunuchs. He approached without saying a word. At this moment, the eunuch hurriedly dodged.
"What are you doing?"
A series of sounds like the sound of a flute being shaken by the breeze came from behind. Gu Feixue and others turned around and saw Yuchi Shuo.
Before, she thought that the two of them had a perfect understanding, but after experiencing the flood, she found that everything was self-righteous. Yuchi Shuo was often half-believing and half-doubting her, and the intimacy that had been hard-earned before has now gradually disappeared.
She also had a single purpose, which was to hope that when she arrived in the capital in the future, the old prince would be able to overturn the verdict for her father.
Your old matter requires an investigation by someone in a high position of authority.
The old eunuch turned around and saw that it was Yuchi Shuo who had arrived. He made a mournful face and quickly complained, "Your Highness, look at who they are! They actually taught me a lesson. I'm a big shot in front of the Emperor, how could they..."
As he spoke, Yuchi Shuo's eyes suddenly turned cold. The old eunuch shuddered and felt danger.
"There is a dragon spring on your tongue, which can kill people without shedding blood. If you hadn't been talking nonsense and humiliating others just now, would they have hit you? It was obviously you who bullied others first. Do you think I don't know?" He approached you step by step.
The old eunuch didn't dare to speak and collapsed to the ground.
"They are all sworn brothers, a bond of life and death. It's rather inappropriate for you to bully them by taking advantage of your position as a newcomer."
"Yes, yes, this slave deserves death a thousand times. He deserves death a thousand times."
The old eunuch was terrified and knelt down to beg for mercy.
Seeing the old eunuch like this, Gu Feixue felt that it was unnecessary.
Yuchi Shuo saw Gu Feixue going far away, and followed her in three or two steps.
The moonlight tonight was bright and clear, creating a poetic and picturesque atmosphere. Gu Feixue turned around and saw Yuchi Shuo following her, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
She deliberately quickened her pace.
But the faster she went, the faster she caught up.
When you reach the octagonal pavilion in front, you can no longer continue to move forward in anger.
It had rained a few days ago, and the water was muddy and murky. She turned around and asked, "Your Highness, why are you following me?"
"I shouldn't have..." Yuchi Shuo humbly admitted his mistake, "I shouldn't have doubted you."
"He could have turned the tide, but what about you, Your Highness? You don't trust him at all." At this point, Gu Feixue sneered, "No, it's not that you don't trust Senior Amogong, Your Highness, you're questioning me."
He felt extremely ashamed.
He was a proud and arrogant person. In the past, he had a large number of followers in the imperial capital at his command, and no one had ever criticized him like this. Even though he knew that the truth was unpleasant to the ears, Yuchi Shuo's self-esteem was still hurt.
He had clearly apologized sincerely and thought the other party would "let it go", but he didn't expect Gu Feixue to still not give up.
After making a fuss for a while, Gu Feixue prepared to go back.
But after walking for a while, it started raining again.
The rain today is annoying, but it is no longer threatening.
The two could not go on. This was a desolate wilderness, and if they continued walking, there might be natural disasters such as mudslides. Moreover, both Gu Feixue and Yuchi Shuo were exhausted.
"We can't go any further. It's dark and too dangerous." Gu Feixue reminded.
Yuchi Shuo also understood and could only nod.
"There is a house over here, let's go over there." Gu Feixue pointed not far away. Yuchi Shuo looked in the direction of her finger and immediately saw the thatched hut.
The air was chilly, and the two of them entered in two steps at a time. The owner of the hut had disappeared, but the house was clean and tidy. After lighting the brazier, Gu Feixue realized that she was wet all over.
Looking at Yuchi Shuo again, he was also soaked like a drowned rat.
"You should bake the clothes. Your Highness is precious. If there is any problem, it will be bad." A sarcastic smile hung on Gu Feixue's lips. Yuchi Shuo didn't care about her teasing. "You should bake them too. This won't be good."
"I'm used to it."
Yuchi Shuo didn't care about that. He went in to get some firewood and quickly erected a wooden rack, which he placed between the two of them. "Let's take off our clothes and dry them. This way, no one can see each other. What do you think?"
"No way."
Gu Feixue sneezed loudly with a "chu" sound.
The voice on the other side was already pleading softly, "Auntie, your health is the most important thing. I swear to God that I am a gentleman."
"That……"
The rain in early spring was indeed a bit overwhelming. Gu Feixue only felt the half of her body facing the fire was warm, while her back felt as if frozen.
She could only nod reluctantly, "Then I'll take it off."
She threw the clothes on the wooden rack. Yuchi Shuo behaved very well throughout the whole process. He didn't steal glances at her or do anything strange to make her nervous.
After baking for a while, Yuchi Shuo brought over a piece of baked sweet potato.
"Eat, this is delicious."
"Thank you." It seemed that the misunderstanding had been cleared up, and Gu Feixue accepted the "gift" with a smile. His hand quickly retracted, and Gu Feixue could see him holding a piece of wood and digging a hole in the hot ashes, and then throwing the sweet potato in.
He himself had nothing to eat.
Gu Feixue was not a selfish person. She cut the sweet potato into two and gave half to Yuchi Shuo.
After the two of them ate, Gu Feixue's clothes were almost dried.
She put on her clothes.
The heavy rain outside has formed a gurgling stream flowing down the eaves.
Because of the charcoal fire, the room suddenly became as warm as spring, and her previous anger had disappeared. "It's time to rest."
The charcoal fire was filled to the brim, enough to last through the long night.
Gu Feixue looked at Yuchi Shuo, but Yuchi Shuo's eyes were fixed on the bed next to him.
There is only one bed in this room.
"You go to sleep. I'm used to wandering around, so I'm fine with anything." Gu Feixue politely gave way.
But Yuchi Shuo said: "I am a man, ladies first, you can just sleep."
The two of them were in a stalemate, and the final result was that Yuchi Shuo went to the living room, leaving Gu Feixue alone in the bedroom. It was colder outside than here, that was for sure, so after seeing him leave, she took some warm supplies and sent them out.
