Huo Cen's words were too straightforward.
Suddenly, Gu Nanzhi and Xie Ni were startled at the same time.
Gu Nanzhi was shocked, how could Xie Ni's subordinates say such words? !
Xie Ni's eyes sank, and he gave Huo Cen a death stare, who would allow him to meddle in his own business, what should he do if he scares her?
But he was more concerned about Gu Nanzhi's reaction. He stopped breathing and looked at Gu Nanzhi cautiously. His eyes, which were always as cold as jade, contained both expectation and deep uneasiness.
She was the only one in the world who could make him uneasy. Under her wide sleeves, he clenched his fingers tightly.
After the shock dissipated, Gu Nanzhi lowered his eyes and smiled, "This lord is joking, I have been married before, how can I be worthy of Mr. Shoufu, Mr. Shoufu is worthy of the best woman in the world."
Not that she belittled herself.
It's that she was married before, which is an unchangeable fact. Even though Pei Luobai has never touched her, the world has always been particularly harsh on women. In the eyes of everyone, she is already a ruined woman.
She was lucky to be able to successfully jump out of the Pei family's fire pit.
How could she dare to ask for anything else?
In the past, her only impression of Xie Ni was that he was a treacherous minister, and she knew nothing else about him. Now that she got to know him, she felt that Xie Ni was a cold person on the outside and hot on the inside, which was not what Pei Luobai said at all.
It is a person who is worth entrusting for life.
Not to mention that she had never thought about remarrying, even if she had this idea, Xie Ni was definitely not something she could hope for or imagine.
Xie Ni's eyes suddenly darkened.
"Ha..." He chuckled and looked at Gu Nanzhi intently, "Why don't you ask me, girl, to tell me who is the best woman in the world? Where should I find her?"
In fact, what he wanted to say was, 'In my eyes, you are the best woman in the world, and I only want you. '
He was just afraid of scaring her and that she would not want to see him again in the future.
Gu Nanzhi: "..."
How does this tell her to answer?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and the best woman in her eyes may not be good to him.
She thought for a while and said, "Adults will always meet."
Xie Ni's eyes were long, and he curled his lips into a smile, implying: "Maybe, I have already met..."
Gu Nanzhi was slightly startled. She suddenly remembered that Xie Ni once asked her a question, and then reported to the emperor that he had changed the law. He indeed had the woman he liked.
She smiled brightly and offered her sincere blessings, "Congratulations to you, sir. I wish you a happy return soon."
Xie Ni's eyes were as deep as an abyss, he looked at her calmly, and slowly said two words, "Yes."
Huo Cen, who was huddled aside, was really scared to death by the two of them.
Of these two, one dared not speak, and the other dared not think.
It takes a long time to accomplish something good?
He finally acted as a mouthpiece for a while, but when he saw the look in his eyes, he wanted to kill him and then drag him out to whip his corpse.
He is so difficult...
Xie Ni had already asked someone to notify Gu Wenhe.
The carriage wandered around the street twice, and after making sure no one was following it, it went straight to Gu's house.
Gu Nazhi and Xie Ni both fell silent.
We were almost at Gu's house.
Huo Cen said with a sad face: "It's good to have Miss Gu today, but what will happen tomorrow? Who will change the dressing for you? There is not even a maid in the house. How can a clumsy gentleman like Qing Yishui do such a delicate job?" I’m not talking about the doctor in my house. I only injured my leg last time and asked him to change the medicine for a few days. Instead of healing my leg, the injury got worse and worse, and I almost had to have it amputated."
He glanced at Gu Nanzhi as he spoke, "My lord is already injured so badly, how can he be better if I leave it in his hands? My poor lord!"
Gu Nanzhi immediately frowned, is it so serious?She asked: "I am also a layman. If you don't mind it, can I go to your house every day to change your dressing?"
Xie Ni glanced at Huo Cen lightly. Although his acting skills were a bit exaggerated, he had finally done a good thing, but it was still far from being a crime.
"I don't dislike it, but I don't know if it will trouble Miss Gu too much?"
Gu Nanzhi shook his head, "It's not troublesome, my life was saved by adults."
Xie Ni looked up at her and corrected: "Tonight, I haven't seen Miss Gu, and Miss Gu has never been to the west of the city!"
Gu Nanzhi immediately understood what he meant.
He is protecting her reputation.
The carriage stopped at the gate of Gu's house.
"Tonight, thank you sir." After thanking, Gu Nanzhi got out of the carriage.
"Zhizhi..." After learning that Xie Ni had found her, Gu Wenhe stood guard at the gate. His eyes were full of worry, and he hurriedly greeted her.
It was not a place to talk outside, so he looked at Gu Nanzhi carefully from the beginning to the end, and saw that although she was a little embarrassed, she was not injured, so he was relieved.
Gu Nanzhi got off the carriage.
Xie Ni glanced away.
Hoten knelt down in front of him with a plop, and his voice was light: "Do you know your guilt?"
Huo Cen quietly raised his eyes, "This subordinate is convicted, and I will never dare to speak nonsense in front of Miss Gu again. Please forgive me."
Xie Ni's eyes darkened slightly, "Thirty floggings. When you get back, you can go and receive the punishment yourself."
"My subordinates take orders." After listening to his words, Hoten calmly breathed a sigh of relief. Because of his negligence tonight, Miss Gu almost died in the sea of fire. According to the Lord's past temper, he must be skinned and cramped. Only thirty lashes are too light.
It can be seen that the efforts he made later were still very useful.
"My lord, there is one thing I don't understand. Why did your lord keep all his affection in his heart, but didn't tell Miss Gu? If you don't tell me, how would she know about your friendship." He really couldn't figure it out.
Your lord's mouth is obviously powerful, but he never showed mercy when he yelled at other people. Even his uncle was speechless by his yelling, and his face was livid with anger.
Xie Ni lay on the carriage and fiddled with the beads on his wrist.
When Huo Cen thought he wouldn't answer, he said slowly: "Others don't understand, Huo Cen, don't you understand too? My mother and my grandfather have not avenged their hatred. Others only see that I am in a high position and have all the power." The government and the public do not know that I am walking on the edge of a knife every step of the way, and if I am not careful, I will be doomed."
He said for a moment, with a bit of melancholy, "If I express my feelings at this time, I will only drag her into this whirlpool. However, those who can't help me will treat her as a living target, and she will never have peace." It’s day.”
Huo Cen looked solemn and said, "I understand, I was indeed reckless just now."
Suddenly, Xie Ni's cold eyes were filled with a bit of bloodthirsty hostility, "Even what happened this time may be aimed at me. Where are those people in the prostitute house? Take me Go, I want to know who it is, there is a way to heaven, he will not go, and there is no way to hell, he will break in, and he dares to set his mind on her."
Suddenly, Gu Nanzhi and Xie Ni were startled at the same time.
