Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid
Chapter 442 Should I Pay a Gift?
Chen Song looked at him deeply, bowed again, turned around and left, quickly blending into the team entering the city.
Gu Yue did not rush to line up, but sat down in a tea stall nearby.
Xiaobai bit the fabric of his arm, as if urging him on.
"Wait, I need to think about it again." Gu Yue was just scared.
He held his head and scratched it again and again until the loose hair on his forehead was messed up, then he stood up bravely.
"Go!" he said, "Let's...let's go take a look and see what Xiao Xu is doing."
He led Xiaobai out of the tea stall and walked to a post station, where he tied the horse to the pole with a flag.
Xiaobai cried out, turned his head and wagged his tail, very reluctant. Gu Yue hurriedly touched the horse's neck and whispered: "If I take you with me, you will be too conspicuous and will be discovered in no time! You stay here, I believe the people from Wumen will find you soon."
Although he was not a thief, he was almost there.
Finally, after combing Xiaobai's mane, Gu Yue picked up the hat he had bought and put it on his head, then walked towards Luoyang City.
He had a pass prepared for him by a Taoist priest, so he entered Luoyang City smoothly.
The entire Zhuque Street was decorated with lanterns and red silk everywhere, and firecrackers could be heard from time to time in various markets. Seeing this, Gu Yue carefully recalled today's day - it was not a New Year's Day, so what was this for?
He walked to a bun shop on the side of the street and ordered two meat buns wrapped in oil paper. He asked the owner, "Why is this street so busy?"
"You are from out of town, right? Today is the wedding of the prince of Northern Qin, and the procession is about to set off!" The bun shop owner pointed enthusiastically to the crowded area in the north, "Hurry up if you want to grab some copper coins!"
"Oh!" Gu Yue was surprised. Qin Zhaoyue was still alive?
That's not right. Gu Xu should not know that Qin Zhaoyue had instigated Gu Dashi to harm Gu Xu.
They are on the list, one day earlier or later doesn't make any difference.
"I wonder which girl the prince will marry?" He was very curious about the choice of the crown princess. What did the original text say? It seemed that this matter was not mentioned.
"It's the eldest daughter of the Jing family, the one who was betrothed to me since birth." The boss replied happily, "This is truly a match made in heaven!"
"Thank you." Gu Yue clasped his fists.
He was not interested in the prince's marriage, so he walked towards the Duke Dunxin's mansion.
Hangdou newspapers were everywhere. He learned from the information he had learned along the way that things had gone exactly in the direction he expected. Gu Dashi had taken on the bad reputation, but Gu Xu had not been affected much. The emperor was already in poor health before his death, and the Dunxinbo Mansion would never be taken back.
After just two steps, he stopped and turned back.
What are you thinking? The people around the Duke of Dunxin's mansion are mostly from Wumen. What will happen if they are arrested?
Even someone like Su Yingjian who had rarely seen him could mistake him for Gu Dashi, let alone that group of cunning secret guards.
Gu Yue slowly walked to the center of the hustle and bustle.
From a distance, a tall horse was seen, followed closely by an extremely gorgeous and huge sedan chair. Behind it was a very long procession of dowry and gifts, boxes of which continuously emerged from the alley leading to the Jing family's mansion. The guards outside formed two teams, staring at them eagerly. They were all elite Jing family soldiers and Donglin guards.
Jing and the palace servants scattered copper coins with red paper attached to them along the way. The sound of drums and music continued all the way, making it a very lively scene.
Gu Yue did not try to grab the prize, but just watched the wedding procession go away, hearing discussions in his ears.
"...The Jing family is full of supporters of the royal family. This marriage is a match made in heaven."
"I am worried that if the Jing family becomes a foreign relative in the future, will they still be trusted? Or will they have to hand over the military power like this?"
"I don't know. How can we explain clearly the power struggle?"
"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has waited for so many years. Why is he only marrying a Crown Princess now? The Crown Prince is twenty-six years old this year, right?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yue immediately remembered that Zhen Suhang seemed to have mentioned the reason why the prince had not yet married.
Jing's family arranged a marriage for the prince, and the children were twins. The prince was worried that neither of them would be good, so he delayed making a decision.
Is it settled now? Who did you marry?
Then I heard the person next to me say, "Of course I decided on the bigger one."
"What about the younger one? It should also refer to a marriage." said someone who knows the matter.
"Then the young master Gu Xu from the Duke of Dunxin's mansion has been chosen, right? The marriage is almost ready, and I estimate that the bride will be held in two days."
"Yes, that day I saw the Bo Mansion send a pair of geese to Jingshi, and also several carts of things."
Gu Yue felt the blood rushing to the top of his head.
what's the situation?
Your boyfriend is getting married?
Gu Yue felt dizzy and his ears were buzzing. It took him a while to come back to his senses. He raised his hand and pinched his face.
Still awake, not dreaming.
The noisy sounds around him that seemed to have disappeared for a moment because of his trance gradually began to sound again. Gu Yue looked at the people who were chatting just now and asked, "You just said that the younger of the Jing family twins is going to marry Gu Xu from the Duke of Dunxin's mansion?"
"Yes, it has been decided a long time ago." The man said, "This means standing on the side of the prince! If I had to choose, I would make the same choice."
"It was just a few days ago that the emperor took the magic medicine sent by Xidi and he recovered. Otherwise, I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would have ascended the throne soon." said the woman.
"Who wouldn't want to be a follower of a powerful family?" another person said, "Jing's daughter is a noble lady. Gu Xu is an orphan with no parents and no one to take care of him. He is marrying into such a good family and that's really a great move."
"That's what I mean." The people around echoed.
Gu Yue couldn't bear to listen anymore and turned away.
The crowd followed the prince's wedding procession and moved forward, going in the opposite direction of his direction. Soon, there were no people left around, and Gu Yue stood alone on the street, suddenly at a loss.
He intuitively felt that this was some kind of scheme by Gu Xu, and he also knew that he should go to the Duke of Dunxin's mansion immediately to find out what was going on.
How common! It's a common method of creating conflicts and misunderstandings. This kind of plot is overused in novels. It must be some kind of strategy.
Gu Yue just walked for a while, then walked to the wall and slowly squatted down.
What if not?
This kind of plot is only suitable for traditional romance dramas, right?
Male protagonist, female protagonist, Gu Xu is undoubtedly the male protagonist, then is Gu Yue the female protagonist?
The Taoist's words circled in his mind again and again. This world has been put on the right track. Has Gu Xu also returned to the logic of his male-oriented novels?
Gu Yue's mind was in a mess. He knew very well that this was a matter that could be clarified by rushing to the Duke of Dunxin's residence, meeting Gu Xu or someone else, stating his identity, and then asking them.
But he really didn't have the courage.
The sudden change of identity had already made him panic. He was not sure whether Gu Xu could accept the real him, not to mention that Gu Xu was going to get married now.
Is this what he meant?
