Enemies are reborn

The two stone lions in front of Gujiamen's house are said to be lighted by the master to suppress demons and ghosts. It is said that they weigh a thousand catties, and they can deter thieves just by placing them there.

Gu Ning never came out after returning to the mansion, Su Ying waited in the inn for a few days but no news came back, when she was anxiously waiting, Yu Yin led people over.

Yu Yin is Xie Yu's person, who escaped death a few days ago, and still has an indelible scar on her chest. After entering the inn, she took Su Ying away to a temple outside the city.

Then the Gu family went to find Su Ying, and rushed back to tell Mr. Gu.

Old man Gu’s full name is Gu Zong, who is over sixty years old, with gray hair on his temples, circles of wrinkles on his face, and wearing a gray-blue robe. When he heard Su Ying leave, he slammed his cup: “You trash, no woman can find it.” Hurry up and find her, if she resists, she will be killed directly."

The steward didn't dare to disturb him, and led the people away in a gloomy manner.

Not long after, Gu Ning came from the inner courtyard. After seeing the hurried figure, she pretended not to see it, and went straight into the house to greet her father.

Gu Ning is the only daughter of Mr. Gu. He has a bad reputation, and all the sons he gave birth to have died. Only Gu Ning grew up safely. He is destined not to have any heirs.Seeing the debris on the ground, Gu Ning smiled and said, "Why is father so angry?"

"It's nothing, by the way, what happened to the account you checked?" Mr. Gu kept a secret about Su Ying.

In the past few days, Gu Ning officially took over the Gu family's business, and found many loopholes. Not to mention the shortfalls, she also found that the Gu family was not as good as when she left, and owed a lot of debts. Compared with the Zhao family, it happened to be heaven and earth.

But she didn't point it out: "I'm still watching, come and take a look when you hear the sound from the front yard."

Only then did Mr. Gu feel relieved, and said earnestly: "Take it easy, the business of the Gu family will be yours sooner or later."

Gu Ning lowered her eyes: "I know, since there is nothing wrong, I will go back first, and my father will not be angry anymore."

"Okay." Mr. Gu didn't persuade him to stay, let alone take the initiative to talk about Su Ying.

The steward turned the city upside down, but no one was seen. At this time, Xiao Kunning woke up and found himself in a different place.There are only simple beds, tables and chairs in the small room. Although it is clean, the damage on the corner of the table shows that the situation here is not good.

Not long after the dive that day, Xie Yuji jumped down. She could swim, so it was not difficult to escape, but Xie Yu fell into the water and sank just like that.

She never dreamed that Xie Yu was a landlubber, and it was possible to swim ashore by herself, but she felt powerless to take Xie Yu with her.

As soon as she pulled Xie Yu's body up, several figures came faintly from the bottom of the water.

There are many killers hidden under the water, and they cannot float to the surface, so they can only escape around the boat.

The surface of the lake is not cold in summer, but the water is so cold that people's limbs are numb, and the killer swims very fast. She wanted to lead people ashore to call for help, but found that Xie Yu had already closed his eyes.

What a nuisance.

The more she moved Xie Yu, the more she sank, and the underwater plants entangled her feet again. The moment she went to untie the plants, the man in black rushed over.

If caught by them, you may still have your life, but if you continue to escape underwater, you may be drowned.

He woke up and didn't see Xie Yu, did he drown or was killed by the killer?

Xiao Kunning got up and found that she had changed into a set of clean clothes, a blue sarong, she didn't look like a wealthy family, when she opened the door, she accidentally saw the goddamn Xie Yu drinking tea outside the door.

It was still cool in the summer morning, Xie Yu changed his clothes, her long hair was loose, and there were two tea bowls in front of her, she walked over quietly and sat down opposite Xie Yu: "Where is this?"

Xie Yu returned the tea bowl: "This is Zhuangzi of the Gu family."

The tea in the tea bowl was yellow, as if it had been drunk many times, Xiao Kunning didn't touch it, "Gu Ning?"

"Yes, the person who rescued me from the palace back then was also surnamed Gu." Xie Yu took a sip of the muddy tea, her brows and eyes were calm, and her eyelashes trembled under Xiao Kunning's scrutiny. She chose to lower her voice: "I am in the palace. Born, but my mother did not die, we were brought back to Chang'an City, and lived in an abandoned palace. You must be wondering why my mother can't resist?"

Xiao Kunning was not surprised, she faintly felt that Xie Yu's past was different, she also lowered her voice: "Because of you, without you, she can make a comeback, but with you, she will choose to give up."

The corners of Xie Yu's lips were bent, not much emotion, more numbness, she met Xiao Kunning's pitiful eyes: "You are right, later she went crazy and was tortured to the point of insanity, while I was She was rescued, and I haven't seen her since then. The person who rescued me was a guard who sent me to Gu's house in the south of the Yangtze River. Mr. Gu may know my identity, or he may not. In short, he gave everything he could Me, when I was ten years old, he sent me to Xie's house in Luoyang, and I became Xie Yu."

Send it back and forth, fate is beyond your control.

Xiao Kunning's mouth was parched, and she couldn't describe her emotions in words. She felt powerless for a while, as a woman.If Princess Leyang was a man, then such a tragedy would not have happened.The harem is sinister and full of dangers. It's not that Princess Leyang is incompetent, but that the world is unfair.

"When she was awake, she told me that she had wanted to kill me countless times, so that she could act as if nothing had happened, and finally compromised for me." Xie Yu said lightly, his eyes were silent, No ripples could be seen, and the voice that came out was smooth and seamless.

"This is the Gu family's house, and I still don't know who is behind the person who rescued me from the palace."

Xiao Kunning was shocked: "You don't know?"

Xie Yu shook his head: "I don't know, maybe I will know in a few days."

"Then the person who killed you was sent by the Gu family?" Xiao Kunning felt a few ideas, maybe it wasn't a divorce, but the Gu family wanted to kill Xie Yu, or Xie Yu was also playing chess.If this chess piece is disobedient, it must be removed.

"Well, you have become smarter. After drinking a few sips of lake water, your head will be enlightened." Xie Yu smiled, and she caught Xiao Kunning's shadow at the gate from the corner of her eye, and she reached out and grabbed Xiao Kunning: "Just pretend you don't know anything. , Zhao Ji is dead."

Zhao Ji is dead?Xiao Kunning found it unbelievable, and Xie Yu took the opportunity to say: "The queen mother is the emperor's adoptive mother, so naturally she has to make plans for her own son. The queen mother designed to kill the little prince. Zhao Mian designed to keep the throne except Zhao Ji. In this way, the queen mother completely gave up. .”

Once Zhao Ji died, the city of Chang'an was in chaos.This is also the reason why she came to Jiangnan, and the person who rescued her from the palace back then will also show up.

Xiao Kunning brushed her hand away and covered her temples: "Xie Yu, I don't understand."

Xie Yu was amused: "Just now I was praising you for being smart, but you have revealed your true colors so quickly."

"You..." Xiao Kunning felt her self-esteem hurt again, she slapped her hand away and got up to leave.

The people at the gate of the courtyard came in at this time, carrying a food box in their hands, and put the vegetables and two bowls of soup on the table.

Xiao Kunning's eyelids trembled, Xie Yu remained calm, the visitor stood on one side and did not leave, as if waiting for the two of them to drink the medicine before leaving, Xie Yu generously took the soup and drank it down.Seeing that she drank, Xiao Kunning was not stubborn, so she drank it with her head raised.

After they both drank, the person who came came left.

Xiao Kunning felt nauseated, "What kind of medicine is this?"

"The medicine that makes people feel weak." Xie Yu explained.

"How many days have I slept?" Xiao Kunning wanted to vomit but couldn't.

Xie Yu said: "Three days, you are too tired in the water, sleep a little longer." After speaking, she dragged Xiao Kunning into the house, and directly closed the door.

Qing Tian Bai Ri closed the door, feeling that something was wrong, Xiao Kunning's eyelids twitched a few times, and when he wanted to speak, Xie Yu took out the medicine and stuffed it into her mouth.

"We'll go to Gu's house tomorrow, and then what will I say and what will you do?" Xie Yu fed her the medicine, turned around and left.

Xiao Kunning was at a loss. The Gu family seemed to have many problems. Since they were the Zhuangzi of the Gu family, why did Mr. Gu let them take medicine.

Gu Ning was the president of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce in her previous life, but no one in the Gu family mentioned it. What does the Gu family want to do at this time?

On the second day, someone brought the sunset clothes, and after changing, they each left Zhuangzi in a carriage.

When the carriage stopped, I saw two mighty stone lions, majestic and majestic.

Xie Yu got out of the carriage first, then walked to Xiao Kunning's carriage, and stretched out his hand to help her down.Xiao Kunning didn't want to get close to her, but in the face of adversity, he didn't have so much to do, and saving his life was the most important thing.

The two entered the gate of Gu's house hand in hand. There were small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and pavilions in the Jiangnan courtyard, and Gu Ning hurried over from the other side of the bridge.

Xie Yu held Xiao Kunning's hand tightly, as if he was afraid that if he let go, he would just disappear.

Gu Ning was almost indescribably shocked when she saw the two of them. Xie Yu looked calm, as if facing an ordinary matter, but after seeing the cold blood in her eyes, she almost froze in place: "Are you voluntary?" Did you come, or were you forced?"

Xie Yu held Xiao Kunning's fingertips and felt her fear. Facing an unknown fate in a dangerous situation, it is normal to be afraid. She wanted to comfort him in her arms, but she had no chance.

She lazily raised her eyes, "The latter."

The Gu family in Jiangnan is not as ordinary and quiet as it appears on the surface.

Gu Ning supported her forehead, and when she remembered something dangerous, her face paled instantly: "Su Ying..."

Xie Yu said with disgust: "I don't have the skills to learn how to marry a wife."

Xiao Kunning said, "Mr. Xie is capable but doomed to die alone. He is also a poor person."

"Xiao Kunning..." Xie Yu gritted his teeth, the ice in his eyes was slowly melted by these words, pretending to be angry: "If I die alone, you must die first."

"You, you curse me." Xiao Kunning blushed, the two of them were on the same boat anyway, no one was high or low, even if he didn't want to step on her instep, he leaned into her ear and said: "You are lonely There is another possibility that I will marry Wen Yuke."

The two came and went, neither of them would give in. Gu Ning's tense heart gradually calmed down in the dispute, and she led the two of them to the main hall.

Xiao Kunning was not forgiving, and followed Xie Yu in step by step. After seeing the solemn old man in the main hall, he remembered that he seemed to have seen it in the Empress Dowager's Hall in his previous life, but he claimed to be a merchant at that time.Is there any relationship between Mr. Gu and the Queen Mother?

Gu Zong got up and went to greet Xie Yu in person, and invited the two of them to talk inside, with a kindness in his words, "I haven't come back for so many years, thanks to your care for Gu Ning in Chang'an City, I will stay for a few more days when I come today .”

The three of them knew each other well, but no one tried to expose it. Xie Yu smiled even more: "You are welcome, I came here today to see you, and by the way, I want to marry a wife."

"Marrying a wife? Marrying a wife is a good thing." Gu Zong was slightly surprised, and his eyes fell on the bright girl beside her. The girl looked good, and she was close to Xie Yu, which showed that the relationship between the two was indeed very good.

Gu Ning was also surprised for a while, and immediately understood the meaning of the words, and said directly: "Why don't you just arrange the marriage at Gu's house, and I will go to greet you."

Gu Zong stopped immediately: "It's too hasty, it's not appropriate."

Xiao Kunning remained silent, relying on Xie Yu, there was a lot of fame in Gu's mansion.

Xie Yu held Xiao Kunning's hand, smiled warmly, and spoke much softer than usual: "A Ning is right, I want to propose marriage to the Zhao family in Jiangnan, and invite Zhao Erdong's family here, what does uncle think?"

Gu Zong was puzzled: "Zhao Erdong's family should not agree."

Halfway through the opera, Xiao Kunning would be an idiot if he couldn't understand it, so he pretended to smile: "My mother will agree, let's see the sincerity of the Xie family."

Gu Ning's eyelids twitched. Is Xie Yu married for real or fake? It's not easy to get the Zhao family's daughter. "Miss Xiao agrees, and Zhao Erdong's family will definitely agree."

Xiao Kunning nodded: "Boss Gu is absolutely right."

Hearing this, Gu Zong felt hesitant when he heard this, but he was diluted by the phrase 'invite Zhao Erdong's family here', this sentence was too tempting, he stroked his beard and smiled: "It's okay, if that's the case, I'll do it once your Lord."

Xie Yu said modestly: "You are polite, Xie Yu's life was saved by you, so I can regard you as my father."

Gu Zong laughed heartily, and Gu Ning let out a soft breath, and after the negotiation was completed, she went to the backyard to meet the two of them.

The maidservant was still behind the three of them, Gu Ning couldn't speak, so she glared at those people uncomfortably: "Stand back, I have something to whisper to them."

The maid refused, so Xiao Kunning squatted down to pick up something, Gu Ning took Xie Yu aside and asked, "Is Su Ying with you?"

Xie Yu said coldly: "Xiao Kunning left Jiangnan alive, I will return Su Ying to you. If Xiao Kunning is dead, I will throw Su Ying into the river to feed the fish."

Gu Ning was so angry that she poked Xie Yu's forehead with her hand like this: "Forget friends when you see sex, forget friends when you see sex, just wait, when I see Su Ying, I will let Xiao Kunning marry Zhao Ji."

Xie Yu said calmly, "Zhao Ji is dead."

Gu Ning said angrily: "Marry Wen Yuke. Wen Yuke is much more caring than you, and she will hold the girl she likes in the palm of her hand and greet her with a smile. Look at your ice cube face again, who is it? I will only like you if I am blind. If I were Xiao Kunning, I wouldn’t like you even if I solved myself. I am a wooden person with a face of ice cubes, and I am cold-hearted and cold-blooded.”

Xie Yu was as calm as water: "If Xiao Kunning doesn't marry me, I will let Su Ying reconcile with you."

Gu Ning: "..." How can she be friends with such a shameless person? She is really blind.

****

The Gu family arranged Xie Yu and Xiao Kunning in a room, and the maid stood outside, preparing two sets of clothes for each of them.

Gu Ning quarreled with Xie Yu and then left. The unpleasant quarrel between the two soon spread to Mr. Gu's ears.

Xiao Kunning didn't have too many thoughts, lying on the bed tiredly, shuddered at the thought of Gu Zong's appearance, dragged Xie Yu and said, "Is the Queen Mother behind Mr. Gu?"

"No." Xie Yu denied that the Queen Mother will repay every grievance. She is not such a forbearing person. It is obviously impossible to see her as Zhao Mian's right-hand man in court and remain indifferent. She explained: "The Queen Mother and Princess Leyang The rift between them is very deep, and it is impossible to save me."

"It's too complicated." Xiao Kunning sighed.

Xie Yu smiled and didn't say any more. When he opened the window, he saw the maidservants walking back and forth in the courtyard, and they looked up into the room from time to time.

In the evening, the maid brought the medicine as usual, and the two drank it in front of them, Xie Yu still gave Xiao Kunning a medicine.

To take a bath in summer, the maid brought hot water over, Xiao Kunning hugged the clothes to wash and thought of something bad, staring at Xie Yu: "Go out."

Xie Yu sat still, pinching the cuffs with his fingertips: "I'll go out as soon as you take a shower, Gu Zong will doubt it."

Xiao Kunning held her breath in her heart, she really had no choice but to see such a big room at a glance, she was afraid that Xie Yu would rely on her.

She searched the house for a while, and finally found a ribbon, tied Xie Yu's hands unceremoniously, and blindfolded Xie Yu's eyes.

Xie Yu followed her and let her be tied up, without any thought of resistance, he said, "I'll take a bath later, can I tie you up like this?"

Xiao Kunning untied the belt on his body, and after hearing such a proud remark, he immediately took something and threw it at it: "It's a good idea."

Xie Yu heard the voice and turned his head: "Isn't that unfair to me?"

"It's your own fault for being unfair to you, Xie Yu. I've been assassinated every time since I met you. This time, it's nothing more than you being plotted against by the Gu family. I'm still implicated."

"The first time I met you, did you do the assassin yourself?"

Xie Yu blindfolded and said nothing.

After a while, the sound of water came to my ears, Xiao Kunning didn't speak anymore.

There was darkness in front of Xie Yu's eyes, but the sound of water was getting louder and louder. She thought of something, and the corners of her lips were tightly pursed.

Gradually, his face turned red.

After Xiao Kunning washed it, she let go of her wrist and called someone to clean it up.Xie Yu sat still, touching his face, it seemed a little hot, and it was normal to be a little hot in summer.

Xie Yu went to sleep at night without taking a bath.

Xiao Kunning was lying on the bed, Xie Yu was sleeping on the ground, and the two kept a clear distance.

After a few days of silence, Xie Yu wanted to go out, but Gu Zong didn't agree, and Xie Yu didn't force it anymore. Instead, he stayed there with more peace of mind, and took advantage of the gap to teach Xiao Kunning how to play chess.

Xiao Kunning snorted a few times and didn't agree, finally got out of the clutches, so don't think about playing chess.

She refused to answer, and Xie Yu talked about the scandals she had done like a few treasures: "You lost your teeth when you were six years old, you hid them, and then threw them into the pond. The fish are all dead."

Xiao Kunning was furious: "That's because the maid accidentally spilled the medicine, what does it have to do with my teeth?"

Xie Yu responded, and continued to count: "When you were eight years old, you asked your husband if you could not recite poems, and he beat your palm, so you burned his book."

Xiao Kunning explained with a guilty conscience: "The gentleman said that she knows everything, and it's useless to keep the book, it's better to burn it."

"When you were nine years old, you roasted chicken with your sisters in the backyard, and accidentally burned several pots of peonies in the garden, and even burned the trees in the next door."

Xiao Kunning went mad with anger: "Shut up."

Xie Yu seemed to have never heard of it: "When you were ten years old, you ran away from home to play, and you were kidnapped and sold on the way. It was Yu Yin who rescued you. Back then, you didn't give up and ran away to find some friends. You didn't go out of the city. The door was caught by Zhao Xiran, and I heard that I was hung on a tree all night and listened to the dog barking all night. Since then, you have restrained your temper. When you were 12 years old..."

"You are very annoying." Xiao Kunning couldn't bear her scandal being revealed, threw Xie Yu on her back, and covered her mouth: "Xie Yu, do you know? I hate your calm look the most, I I just want to see how scared you look."

Xiao Kunning's angry behavior seemed to be deliberately seducing people, but Xie Yu knew that she was angry.

very angry.

Angry teenage girl carries her emotions like a person in a heat wave.

Xie Yu stared at himself in her eyes, and suddenly fell in love with this moment, and only now, Xiao Kunning's eyes were full of her.

Thinking about it, it's the same in my heart.

She felt that it was not enough, so she should add more firewood: "When you were 12 years old, you suddenly changed your mind and followed a girl from the Zhao family all day long. The girl is married, and you cried for a while."

"Xie Yu, believe it or not, I will hit you?" Xiao Kunning's heart ached. This person knew all the stupid things he did from childhood to adulthood. Thinking of the first time they met, Xie Yu shamelessly asked her: "What's your name?"

Calling a ghost, god damn Xie Yu, she gritted her teeth: "Xie Yu, I want to kill you today, if I can't kill you, I will kill you. How did you talk when you saw me for the first time? What do you call a girl? You stared at me so hard. For many years, why pretend to be a stranger."

Xie Yu's hands were pressed, her fair complexion was rosy, flushed like a peach blossom, looking a little soft, Xiao Kunning directly covered her mouth: "Stop talking, I can't help but want to hit you if I say a word. "

The maidservant in the corridor didn't know what happened inside, Gu Ning came anxiously, and when she heard the last sentence, she suddenly felt happy, and finally someone cleaned up Xie Yu, she shouted towards the inside: "Do you want a knife or scissors? If I don’t mind giving you a whip, it’s not an exaggeration to kill her.”

As soon as the words fell, Xie Yu's resentful voice came from inside: "Get lost."

"Still so rampant, Miss Xiao, I think whips are more suitable for her. People like Xie Yu are so stubborn." Gu Ning leaned against the door, drove all the maids away, and knocked on the door, "Go find ten whips. Here comes the whip."

The maid looked at each other and refused to leave.

Gu Ning pushed the door open and shouted to the inside: "Is ten sticks enough?" Then she looked at the maid and said, "Hurry up, didn't you hear what the inside wants?"

The maid left in a hurry.

Gu Ning sneered a few times, "I'm coming in."

As soon as the words fell, it was as if a teacup was smashed towards the front door, almost hit the head, Gu Ning patted her chest to comfort herself, and said, "Xiao Kunning, when you were six years old, your teeth fell out and poisoned a pond Xie Yu laughed at you for being ugly and stupid. The girl you liked got married, and she said that you are a toad who wants to eat swan meat. And when you ran away from home and were arrested before going out of the city gate, Xie Yu Said that you are so stupid that there is no cure, that such a girl would not be her maidservant, and you didn’t recognize her when you went to Chang’an City, so she said that she liked you because she was blind.”
