This time the hunt was long.The hunting ground is located outside the palace, and there is a palace specially built for the emperor on the periphery. If the emperor is tired of waiting, he can go to the palace to rest, so the competition will not end until night.

After all, compared to hunting during the day, night hunting can better reveal the hunter's ability.

This made Gu Rong a little uncomfortable.

He didn't have time to change his sweat-soaked underwear, and he really had a fever in the evening.

The other sons and young masters participated in the competition, all in reverse, the servants waited in the tent, and the master went hunting outside.

There was only Gu Rong, who was lying alone on the camp bed in the tent, already burnt to the point where he didn't know anything about himself.

Fortunately, the emperor sent eunuchs from the palace to wait on him.

"Emperor doctor," said the father-in-law Lu of the group shepherd's office standing beside Gu Rong's bed, "What's wrong with Gu Ergong? Can it be cured?"

The imperial physician was also sweating profusely. He was good at trauma, but he was not good at taking care of such stubborn diseases that were inherently weak.

However, he is a doctor anyway, and he is better than those doctors in private medical centers. He dug out a bottle of pills from the medicine box, poured out one for Gu Rong, and said to Lu Gong: "Eunuch, I have to trouble you." Find someone to go outside the hunting ground and invite the doctor who usually treats Second Young Master Gu, I am afraid that only he can handle this matter."

Eunuch Lu hesitated.

The emperor specially sent the eunuch Zhou Youquan to tell him before, asking him to keep an eye on Second Young Master Gu, firstly to see if he is really weak, and secondly to see if he can sit still in the hunting ground.

Eunuch Lu didn't quite understand the emperor's intentions.But he guessed that at this time, it's better not to send someone to the hunting ground to report, or else Eunuch Zhou might punish him for being incompetent when he turns around.

But he thought about it, Second Young Master Gu was already so sick, if he didn't go out to report, he didn't know what would happen.He couldn't sit idly by and ignore the matter of human life.

So Eunuch Lu turned his head and walked out of the tent, and said to the Jinwu Guard who was guarding outside: "Excuse me, please go to the palace outside to ask the emperor for instructions, Second Young Master Gu needs a doctor."

Jin Wuwei went quickly.

In a daze, Gu Rong heard the conversation between Eunuch Lu, the imperial physician, and the Jinwu Guard outside.

With his burning brain, Gu Rong suddenly understood why the emperor asked him to come to the hunting ground with Song Qianyuan.

The emperor must have heard the conversation that the princess of the Western Regions wanted to ask Song Qianyuan for his name.

Could it be that the emperor felt that the princess of the Western Regions had taken a fancy to Song Qianyuan and wanted to send Gu Rong to be the concubine of the Western Regions?

The more I think about it, the more likely it is.

With Song Qianyuan's status, he couldn't be the son-in-law of the Western Regions. Even if the emperor wanted to ennoble him, as long as the emperor checked carefully, he would find that Song Qianyuan was the adopted son of the eunuch in the palace. This status was too humiliating to the princess of the Western Regions.

The best way is to ask Gu Rong to be the son-in-law, with Song Qianyuan as his attendant.

In this way, even if the princess of the Western Regions likes Song Qianyuan, sending him to the Western Regions as a favor for Gu Rong is the best of both worlds.

It's just that Gu Rong's health is too poor, and the journey to the Western Regions is bumpy. The Western Regions are not like the capital, and the climate is different. The emperor wanted to test whether Gu Rong could bear it.

The emperor is afraid that he is used to being the supreme Ninety-Five Supreme Being. No matter whether he is a courtier or his family, they are just pawns in his eyes.

Gu Rong was a little chilled for a moment.

But he knew that the emperor's family was ruthless, and he wasn't surprised. It's just that the disease was so severe that he couldn't wake up.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Rong's doctor was brought by the Jinwu Guard, along with Yuan Sheng.

"Master!" Yuan Sheng cried when he saw Gu Rong like this.

He wasn't influenced by Gu Rong's love for crying. Yuan Sheng grew up with Gu Rong. He had never seen Gu Rong suffer like this, so he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Gu Rong's doctor touched the beard around his lips, and said, "Doctor Wei, let's reduce the fever first."

The trauma doctor sent by the palace was surnamed Wei. Hearing this, he hurriedly went to prepare Gu Rong's fever-reducing guy, Shier, while the doctor took out a pack of prepared medicine, and directly started a fire in the tent.

Until the end of the hunting that night, Gu Rong finally took the decocted medicine and gradually became sober.

As soon as Song Qianyuan stepped into the tent, his expression was not very good.

He had heard Yuan Sheng talk about Gu Rong outside, but as soon as he entered the tent, he saw Gu Rong with a haggard face, wrapped in a thick cloak, and the small quilt that Yuan Sheng specially brought him from Gu's mansion .

The night temperature in the forest is low, and the doctor needs to make Gu Rong sweat as soon as possible, so he can only wrap him thickly, and the medicine is also good for dispersing sweat, Gu Rong's forehead is wet now, it is all sweat .

But even so, his face was still pale.

On weekdays, the smart, cute and playful young master was gone.

Song Qianyuan's hand hanging by his side clenched slightly.

But with so many people present, it was inconvenient for him to say anything, so he could only quietly watch from the sidelines.

When the results of the night's hunting competition came out, the crown prince came out on top.

The performance of the others was also good. Generally speaking, it was Daning who won.

Gu Rong asked Song Qianyuan what number he got.

Song Qianyuan said that he ranked fourth in Daning.

This performance was not very good, but what surprised Gu Rong was that the person who won the second place this time was actually Gu Zhiyu.

Gu Rong didn't know much about riding and archery, but he knew Gu Zhiyu very well.

How could he be better than Song Qianyuan?

Moreover, Song Qianyuan actually let Gu Zhiyu, who has always had no kind words to him, be ranked ahead of him?

But after thinking about it, Gu Rong understood.

Since Song Qianyuan knew about Zangzhuo from the beginning, with his temperament, how could he win this hunt with great fanfare, as long as he can secretly guarantee that the final result is that Da Ning wins.

Sure enough, when everyone rode out of the hunting ground together, Gu Rong sat behind Song Qianyuan and heard Gu Zhiyu's voice from the side: "Today's hunting went really well, unexpectedly there are a few hares that all came under my young master's nose. One was wounded, and it must have been missed by someone, and it slipped away!"

"Young Master Gu San is really amazing! You won the second place this time, and the emperor will definitely reward you!"

"Where is it, it's just good luck!"

Gu Zhiyu was triumphant, glanced to the side, and saw Gu Rong sitting sickly behind Song Qianyuan.

He really couldn't ride a horse by himself, so Song Qianyuan could only take him.

Gu Zhiyu laughed, and hypocritically said: "Second brother, I heard that you fell ill again, are you alright?"

Song Qianyuan said in front: "Young master, sit still, Xiao Qianzi will take you back home first."

After speaking, he shook the rein, and the boasted horse galloped forward.

Gu Zhiyu snorted, and continued bragging with his colleagues.

Because Gu Rong was ill, the emperor exempted Song Qianyuan from going back to the palace with him to ask for a reward.

Gu Rong went back to the Chenxiang Courtyard to change her clothes, washed it briefly, and then sat by the window, waiting for the news from the palace.

During this period, Yuan Sheng came in with a candle, thinking that Gu Rong was asleep, but when he entered the door and saw him sitting by the window, he was startled: "Master, you are not well, go to bed and lie down, the doctor said , you must pay attention to rest after sweating, otherwise you will not be able to hold on tomorrow."

Gu Rongdao: "Yuan Sheng, you go outside and watch. If the third young master and master come back, remember to notify me."

After a while, Yuan Sheng came to report that Gu Zhiyu and Gu Taian had returned.

Gu Rong wrapped her cloak, got up and was about to go outside the house.

"Master!" Yuan Sheng hurriedly stopped him, "Where are you going? If you have something to do, you can send Yuan Sheng to do it!"

Gu Rong said: "No, I want to go and listen to what the emperor said to them!"

Song Qianyuan came in from the outside: "Master, I will go with you."

Gu Rong glanced at him, and the two of them walked out of Chenxiang Court without saying a word in tacit understanding.

Along the way, Song Qianyuan walked beside Gu Rong, using his body to block half of the night wind for Gu Rong.

The two came outside the courtyard of the main house, and heard Gu Zhiyu raise his voice and say to Gu Tai'an: "I'm not going to the Western Regions! Father! The Emperor wants me to go to the Western Regions as a son-in-law. What kind of place is that? Is that a place where people stay?! I dont go!"

Gu Tai'an said angrily: "Do you think this matter can be left to you?! Do you know that the emperor originally planned to let your second brother go!"

Gu Zhiyu's voice paused, as if he was stunned: "You...why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Say it earlier? Can't you see it yourself!" Gu Tai'an said angrily, "He can't hunt, and he can't ride a horse. Why did the emperor let him into the hunting ground?"

"This... this... Dad, I don't understand!" Gu Zhiyu still didn't want to understand.

"The journey to the Western Regions is long and exhausting. The emperor wants to see if Rong'er's body can bear it!"

"Then he... he..."

"Now you have seen it too. In this hunting competition, your results are second only to the crown prince. If you want to make peace with the Western Regions, it would be perfect to come to our Duke Gu's mansion. Worry, if the emperor's imperial decree comes down tomorrow, the matter will be settled." It cannot be changed, so prepare yourself."

"What are you going to do? Father! Do you really want me to go to the Western Regions?"

"How could I have given birth to a son like you! To be able to go to the Western Regions to be a son-in-law and share the worries of the emperor is a matter for Guangzong Yaozu! What's wrong with the Western Regions? Your elder brother is far away in Mobei. Why did he ever say bitterness in a letter at home? How did he get here? With you, going to the Western Regions is suffering?!"

Gu Zhiyu hated Gu Tai'an for comparing Gu Zhengchu with him the most in his life, and after hearing this, his reaction became more intense: "Father!"

The voices of the two gradually faded away.

After returning from the hunting ground, the gloom over Gu Rong's head was swept away.

Thinking of Gu Zhiyu's expression when he learned that he was going to marry into the Western Regions, no matter whether this matter will be finalized or not, Gu Rong felt very refreshed and relieved.

He turned back to Song Qianyuan and said, "Little Qianzi, let's go."

Song Qianyuan silently followed behind him.

"The young master is not angry?" Song Qianyuan said suddenly.

"Return the anger," Gu Rong pouted, "As long as Gu Zhiyu and my aunt stay in the Gu Mansion for a day, the anger will never disappear."

"Then what about the emperor? Where's Master Gu?" Song Qianyuan asked.

Gu Rong was startled.

If the emperor was really determined to send Gu Rong to the Western Regions as a son-in-law, Gu Tai'an would probably not refuse.

Just like what he himself said, being able to marry into the Western Regions is a matter of honor and honor to his ancestors. In Gu Tai'an's heart, perhaps the glory of the Gu family will always be the first priority.

Gu Rong once also rejoiced that he was the second young master of the Gu family, and felt that he was cared about by his father and loved by his mother.But after he gradually experienced some things, he realized that to Gu Tai'an, neither he nor his other two brothers may be as important as the honor of the Gu family.

"Master, if, I mean..."

[Warning to the host, the task progress bar has begun to decline, if the host does not take measures in time, he may be punished! 】

Progress bar down?

How can the progress bar go down?

Gu Rong panicked all of a sudden, is it because he didn't have time to humiliate Song Qianyuan these two days? !

Thinking of this, Gu Rong didn't have time to hear what Song Qianyuan wanted to say, and quickly said: "Don't sleep tonight, stay outside my room, Doctor Zhou will come to change the dressing on your wound tomorrow morning, and then you can go to rest! "

After speaking, he hurried back to Chenxiangyuan, entered his room, and closed the door with a "bang".

Song Qianyuan lightly raised his elbow and stroked the wound on his left arm.

He was tired and injured, but it was nothing to him to stay in Chenxiangyuan for another night.

But, is he being abrupt?

Is the young master angry because of being abrupt?

He originally wanted to propose that he take the young master out of Gu's mansion, and then they would go to the south of the Yangtze River together, find a place where no one would bother them and would be suitable for recuperation, and leave everything here and live a simple life.

At that time, if the young master wants to bring the Wei family, Song Qianyuan will not mind.

But why?

Why is the young master willing to follow him?

Song Qianyuan's dark eyes dimmed.

After a while, he cheered up, walked slowly to the Chenxiang courtyard, and began to guard the courtyard for Gu Rong with due diligence.

[The progress bar returns to normal, please continue to work hard. 】
