Chapter 144 Gu Family Secret
Ye Tantai was not surprised at all that Gu Huoyan had such a reaction. After all, Huo Mei was his only flesh and blood relative in the world.
Su Qingcheng in the corner was thinking, Huo Yan and Huo Mei, are they two brothers and sisters?
But hasn’t the Gu family always only given birth to boys?
Su Qingcheng recalled that in her previous life, when she was collecting the secrets of the major families in the capital for Fu Xingzhou, she heard about the secrets of the Gu family from an old beggar.
The Gu family values boys over girls.
They believe that only men can pass on the Gu family's medical skills.
But they have never found a way to give birth to only boys. Therefore, before Gu Huoyan's generation, as long as they gave birth to girls, they would not live for more than a hundred days.
But in Gu Huoyan's father's generation, he accidentally created the medicine for giving birth to twins.
That's all the beggar told her.
Su Qingcheng thought at that time that the beggar must have lied to the whole thing, so she did not tell Fu Xingzhou about it.
Now listening to the conversation between several people, it seems that this matter is true...
Gu Huoyan was immediately discouraged, and he beat the ground with all his strength unwillingly: "Am I just going to watch her being taken away like this?"
"Have I said that I don't care about her?" Ye Tantai said with some dissatisfaction, "Huo Mei is not only your sister, but also a member of the Shadow Guard. Besides, I asked her to go to Qingshan to keep an eye on her."
Gu Huoyan raised his head and looked at Ye Tantai, with tears in the corners of his eyes.
"I will go to Qingshan myself tomorrow and bring her back."
"I'll go too," Gu Huoyan said hurriedly, and then added as if he was afraid of Ye Tantai's rejection, "I promise not to be impulsive and I will listen to you in everything."
Ye Tantai raised his eyebrows.
"That...I want to go too." Su Qingcheng raised her right hand slightly and said slowly.
Only then did several people realize that there was another person in the corner, and all their eyes were focused on Su Qingcheng.
Ye Tantai raised the corners of his lips, deliberately thinking: "It would be better for the princess to stay in the palace."
Su Qingcheng was not happy. Now that Fu Xingzhou had the title of Prince Duan, he was also a famous person in front of the emperor. It would be extremely difficult to attack him in the capital.
The gold mines and private soldiers in Qingshan are the breakthrough point to defeat him.
"Didn't the prince just say that Miss Huo Mei was sent by you, so you have the obligation to bring her back," Su Qingcheng took a small step and left with the others, without any panic after being embarrassed, "The defense plan of Qingshan is still I gave it to the prince, and I also have the responsibility to find Miss Huo Mei."
Ye Tantai didn't expect that she would say this, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"The princess is right. In that case, let's go together."
"No problem," Su Qingcheng was delighted and immediately turned around and left, "I'll go back to the house to clean up first."
After she left, Gu Huoyan rolled his eyes and complained, "I don't think you thought about refusing at all."
Ye Tantai was noncommittal and couldn't hide the smile at the corner of his mouth.
"I'll go back to the base to prepare first. Everything has been explained in the palace." After saying that, Gu Huoyan walked from the secret passage.
The next day.
Su Qingcheng and others got on the carriage and rushed towards Qingshui City near Qingshan.
Regarding the claim that Yunan Wangfu and his family went to Qingshui City to escape the summer heat.
Su Qingcheng and Ye Tantai were in a carriage.
Last night, she wrote several letters overnight and asked Dan Mo to send them to the tea house and Su Mansion respectively. She didn't know when she would be back from this trip, so she wrote down all her plans for the next month.
After working most of the night, she urgently needed sleep.
Ye Tantai's carriage has been specially processed. Even if the road is entirely gravel, there will be no bumps or even a sound.
Smelling the fragrance of Ye Tantai, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Qingshui City was not far from the capital, and they arrived just as the sun set.
Su Qingcheng was woken up by Ye Tantai: "Is the princess planning to put her head on my shoulders?"
There was a smile that couldn't be hidden in his tone.
Su Qingcheng opened her eyes in a daze, reached out and patted Ye Tantai's shoulder, but turned a deaf ear to his words. Instead, she praised: "Not bad, more comfortable than my pillow."
Then she stepped out of the carriage and stretched.
"My lord and princess, I asked around and found that this is the only inn that has vacancies."
Fu Yi came to the two carriages to report.
Su Qingcheng followed his gaze and saw an antique attic, which looked quite stylish.
"Then go in, why are you standing here?" Su Qingcheng asked.
Fu Yi hesitated for a moment, looked at Ye Tantai and said, "This inn only has two rooms, Your Majesty..."
Su Qingcheng understood what he meant instantly. She and Ye Tantai lived in separate hospitals when they were in the palace.
Gu Huoyan on the side said helplessly: "You two should sleep. I can't sleep well anyway, so I can just sleep on a tree with Fuyi and the others."
Su Qingcheng couldn't bear it. Gu Huoyan's bruises were so severe that she was worried that others would think he had been beaten. Ye Tantai caught her as she hesitated to speak.
Ye Tantai immediately winked at Gu Huoyan, who squinted his eyes and sighed slightly: "It's my responsibility to lose my sister, and I don't deserve a good sleep."
"What are you talking about? I sent her here, so I should go sleep in a tree." Ye Tantai answered.
Gu Huoyan continued to argue: "Why should you sleep on a tree if your legs are not good? What if you fall?"
The two of them said one sentence each, which made Su Qingcheng stunned for a while.
"Stop, stop arguing," she looked at Ye Tantai, "Your Highness, please sleep with me today."
"it is good."
Ye Tantai agreed very readily.
After making arrangements for accommodation, everyone returned to their rooms.
The night is getting late.
Su Qingcheng lost her mind while looking at the round moon. She knew very well what it felt like to lose a loved one.
When her brother disappeared on the battlefield a few years ago, she also wanted to go find him in person.
"Princess, do you want to see the moon?" Ye Tantai asked softly.
He saw Su Qingcheng staring at the moon and thought she was fascinated by the moonlight.
Su Qingcheng smiled slightly: "Yeah."
Ye Tantai took her hand and walked to a window. He opened the window, and a roof made of piled tiles appeared in front of them.
With a slight push of his right leg, he stepped across the window sill and stood in the night: "When I went upstairs, I accidentally discovered the special layout of this inn. Are you here to enjoy the moon?"
At this moment, he stood in the dark night, with the moonlight pouring on him, and Su Qingcheng was speechless.
"it is good."
She followed Ye Tantai's example and stepped onto the roof. The two of them sat side by side, looking up at the moon.
"Your Majesty, why does Gu Huoyan have a sister? Doesn't everyone say that he is the only one in this generation of the Gu family?"
Su Qingcheng asked directly. Although she didn't know if Ye Tantai would tell her Gu Huoyan's secret, perhaps the moonlight was so intoxicating that she didn't want to care about anything else.
Ye Tantai chuckled, his tone indescribably doting: "He not only has a sister, but also a pair of cousins."
"That's right? Aren't the Gu family's descendants few?"
