Chapter 253 253 Fresh (Second update)
"sister!"
Chu Yunmu's joyful shouts came from outside the pavilion.
Chu Qianchen looked up and saw the little guy waving to her happily, smiling from ear to ear, "Sister, let's ride a horse together!"
Behind him, Chu Yunyi finally made the white horse he chose to be more obedient, and it ran slowly in a circle with him on its back.
Gu Jue put down his teacup and suggested, "Why don't we go out for a walk?"
Chu Yunmu's eyes brightened even more, and when he was about to agree, Chu Qianchen beat him to it.
"Okay!" Chu Qianchen was happy.
It's been a long time since she went out for a horse walk with the prince. The time she went to Gaolingzhuang wasn't called a horse walk at all. She was rushing to save someone.
Chu Qianchen was afraid that he would regret it, so he grabbed his wrist, pulled him to his feet, and urged, "Let's go now!"
The girl in red riding clothes walked out in a hurry, with an exceptionally bright and sweet smile on her face.
Gu Jue lowered his eyes and stared at her right hand holding his wrist, smiling softly.
Just looking at her cheerful face like this, his heart felt so soft that it felt like water could drip out.
The two walked out of the pavilion one after another, bathing in the bright sunshine, both with smiles on their faces.
Chu Yunmu felt that he and his sister had a perfect connection, so he shouted in agreement from the side: "I want to go! My eldest brother and I are going too!"
"Brother-in-law, you promised to take me for a horse walk yesterday."
The little guy was so excited that his pupils seemed to be shining, and he was deeply afraid that he and Chu Yunyi would be left behind by Chu Qianchen and Gu Jue.
Gu Jue originally planned to take them to walk the horses together, and nodded with a smile.
Chu Yunmu was so happy that he almost danced on the horse. Chu Yunyi suppressed the corners of his mouth that were about to curl up, feeling that the little kid was really too unreserved.
Thinking that Chu Yunmu was too young, Chu Yunyi wanted to suggest that he ride with him, but as soon as he spoke, Chu Qianchen's clear eyes fell on him.
Chu Yunyi's heart thumped inexplicably, and a vague premonition emerged.
His hunch was right.
After burning the incense, when a group of them came out of Prince Chen's Mansion, Chu Yunyi was about to beat his chest.
Chu Qianchen, Gu Jue and Chu Yunmu all went out on horseback. Only Chu Yunyi took the carriage, and his white horse was temporarily ridden out by Jiang Yuan. Chu Qianchen said that he had just recovered from a serious injury, but he was still unable to gallop, work hard, or ride for a long time.
Until the group of them arrived near the West City Gate, Chu Yunyi was still sitting in the carriage.
"Cough..." Chu Yunyi opened a corner of the curtain, coughed and cleared his throat, wanting to ask him if he could get out of the carriage now, but when he looked up, his eyes met Chu Yunmu's triumphant little face.
Chu Yunmu was only five years old. Of course he did not ride out on his own, but rode with Gu Jue.
Originally, Chu Qianchen wanted Chu Yunmu to ride with her, but Chu Yunmu said that he was a manly man, how could he ride with his sister, so Gu Jue took over for him.
Because of this, Chu Yunmu rode on Jueying's back for the first time. He was so happy that his whole body was floating, and he felt that his life was complete.
"Brother, are you infected with the cold?" Chu Yunmu said while making a face at Chu Yunyi ostentatiously, without concealing the showoff on his face.
Chu Yunyi: "..."
At this time, Chu Yunyi could no longer say what he wanted to say, and was so angry that he almost gave the little kid a shudder.
At this moment, Chu Yunyi regretted it for the thousand and first time.
He really realized his mistake, and he would never commit suicide casually again.
At this time, the speed of the carriage slowed down. There were too many people entering and exiting the city in front. Passers-by formed a long queue and left the city in an orderly manner.
"Master Jiu, what a coincidence!"
A familiar male voice suddenly came from behind the carriage. Chu Yunyi was startled and quickly lowered the curtains.
It's really embarrassing that the dignified eldest son of the Chu family actually rides in a carriage.
If this was seen by an acquaintance, all the dignity would be lost!
The visitor's "Nine Masters" call was naturally Gu Jue.
Chu Yunyi heard the news and walked over curiously. Seven or eight feet away, a man in his thirties, wearing an indigo straight jacket, also came towards this direction on a white horse.
The man in blue robe is holding the reins in one hand and holding a folding fan in the other hand. The folding fan painted with an ink landscape painting is fanning leisurely, suave, handsome and unrestrained.
Gu Jue called out "Master Kang" to the visitor with a cold expression, as a greeting. Kang Hongda pulled the reins and stopped the horse ten feet away. His smiling eyes fell on Chu Qianchen, who was riding with Gu Jue. His smile was gentle and approachable, but there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes.
"Mrs. Ninth." He put away the folding fan, held the handle of the fan and bowed his hands to Chu Qianchen, "Speaking of which, when Master Jiu and Madam Ninth got married, I happened to be away from the capital and couldn't go to the palace to have a glass of wedding wine. What a shame. What a pity.”
Kang Hongda's expression looked very warm. If someone didn't know better, they might think that he and Gu Jue were old friends. For example, Chu Yunmu looked at the two of them back and forth curiously.
Chu Qianchen lowered his eyes and touched the red horse's shiny mane, not even bothering to say hello to Kang Hongda.
So what about Kang Hongda, others may be afraid of him, Kang Hongda, but she is not afraid!
Chu Qianchen disdained Kang Hongda, and Kang Hongda didn't care either. What he cared about more was...
His eyes vaguely glanced at the carriage beside Chu Qianchen, and a flash of thoughtfulness flashed through his eyes.
Since Princess Chen is here, who is the person hiding in the carriage now?
That’s right!
Kang Hongda squinted his eyes and thought of some possibility.
Could it be that the person in this carriage is Uhagalou? !
The whereabouts of Wuhe Jialou are now unknown. Only Gu Jue, who escorted him back to Hao, may know his whereabouts. With Gu Jue's boldness, it is not impossible to bring him back to Beijing quietly.
Today Wuhaduluo sent envoys to meet the saint. Gu Jue must have heard about this, so he hurriedly sent Wuhejialou out of the capital.
Thinking about it, Kang Hongda sighed quietly in his heart.
The emperor was too reckless in this matter. The prince proposed that the emperor go out to the capital to welcome Gu Jue. Even if the emperor was unhappy, he could ask the prince or himself to welcome Gu Jue back. Then of course, Gu Jue would go into the palace to return to the emperor, and the emperor could also come back from Gu Jue asked about some things related to Nan Hao.
But when the emperor encountered Gu Jue's matter, he became confused.
With just a few clicks of his fingers, Kang Hongda's thoughts were already changing, but his face didn't reveal anything, and instead his smile deepened.
"I haven't seen you in the past few years. Master Jiu is even more elegant than before!" He smiled, "By the way, didn't Master Jiu just come back from Hao Kingdom? Why don't you have a good rest in the palace?"
Chu Qianchen was impatient and played with the reins in his hands.
It was rare for the prince to take her out for a horse walk. This person was so chatty, huh, it was really annoying.
She wished she could give Kang Hongda a needle, but her needle was wrapped in the carriage.
Gu Jue also caught a glimpse of her little movements from the corner of his eyes. His thin lips curled up slightly and he said lightly: "No need."
Kang Hongda deliberately glanced at the carriage a few more times, trying to test Gu Jue's reaction, but Gu Jue didn't pay attention to his gaze at all, leaving Kang Hongda a little unsure.
Did he guess wrong? !
Kang Hongda looked towards the carriage again.
Chu Yunyi in the carriage was even more impatient than Chu Qianchen.
They were about to leave the city. Chu Qianchen had agreed with him that he would be allowed to ride a horse as soon as they left the city gate. Why didn't this man outside have any fun?
Chu Yunyi endured it again and again, but couldn't bear it any longer. He opened the curtain again and met Kang Hongda's eyes.
Chu Yunyi's first reaction was embarrassment, and his second reaction was that this man looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
strangeness?
His memory has always been very good. Where did he meet this person?
Chu Yunyi frowned slightly, thinking hard.
Kang Hongda immediately recognized Chu Yunyi, whom he had met once on the fourteenth floor, and his thin lips curled up.
After meeting him on the fourteenth floor last time, Kang Hongda deliberately asked his servants to inquire and found out that this was Princess Chen's younger brother, the eldest son of the Yongding Hou Mansion. Not long ago, Chu Yunyi protected the emperor in the Yuan and Qing Dynasties, saved his life, and saved the title of the Chu family. It is said that he was injured at the time.
Kang Hongda's eyes lingered on Chu Yunyi's handsome young face, and he felt that the young man was a little thinner and paler than before.
Could it be that Gu Jue specially brought Chu Yunyi, who had just recovered from his injury, to play? It seems that Gu Jue is really interested in the princess he just married, and he is willing to make time to greet the princess's brother.
Chu Yunyi didn't like Kang Hongda's gaze very much. If Gu Jue and Chu Qianchen were not here, he would have already patted his **** and left.
Chu Yunyi said to himself silently in his heart that he could not make his sister angry, and he could not make his sister angry.
"Brother Mu, please stop 'troubling' your brother-in-law and get on the carriage." Chu Yunyi deliberately slowed down his speech and glared at Chu Yunmu.
He had a straight face and considered himself an eldest brother like a father, but in Kang Hongda's eyes, he had a different style.
Boys at this age are really alive!
The smile in Kang Hongda's eyes grew stronger.
