The best way to solve the rumors is to inquire clearly in person. Gu Xuanyi still trusts An Wenqing in his heart, but in the end, he has to deny it personally to be at ease.

Father An was not at home, so Gu Xuanyi visited An Wenqing, and entered through the main entrance—one of the few times he walked through the main entrance.

An Wenqing is practicing painting in the courtyard at this time. His handwriting is beautiful, but he is not good at painting, because he has never been interested in painting in his heart, but he still needs to learn a little, not completely.

The tall and straight cang tree in the courtyard fell under his pen, half short and a bit fat. When Gu Xuanyi saw the painting from behind him, he couldn't hold back his laughter for a moment.

An Wenqing put down the pen, and looked at him with raised eyebrows: "You can do it, you come!"

Gu Xuanyi never put his mind on dancing, prose, and ink, so naturally he couldn't: "Actually, if you look closely, there is still a bit of charm. Look at this tree trunk and this tree fork, with distinct layers."

The more I looked at my own painting, the more I felt ashamed. An Wenqing crumpled up the drawing paper and threw it aside as if giving up: "Why do you have time to see me today?"

Spreading out a piece of drawing paper again, Gu Xuanyi picked up the paintbrush, and imitated An Wenqing's appearance of drawing on the paper. He also used the green tree as a reference, and was not in a hurry to "invoke the teacher": "I don't Should I come?"

An Wenqing complained a little: "Father just left home, and you come here, it will inevitably make others care."

"According to what you said, those sons and brothers don't need to make friends. Friends can spread gossip when they come to visit. How about we just avoid each other and keep away from each other?" Concentrate on painting.

An Wenqing tilted his head to look at his serious look, helplessly: "I blame you for being perverse in the past, who in this city doesn't know your hobbies? Others are fine, but you, last time you came, I don't know which talkative bastard is it?" I gossiped with my father and made him ask me about you, and I assured him again and again that we were innocent, so he would let me go and stop asking questions."

Gu Xuanyi turned his head to meet An Wenqing's gaze: "But you were caught by me like this?"

"Who told me to be blind." An Wenqing came to Gu Xuanyi's side under Gu Xuanyi's gaze, and looked at Gu Xuanyi's paintings, which were a little better than his own, feeling unwilling, "There is no aura! "

"Yes yes yes, ordinary people's paintings are all ordinary things, where can I find the aura for you to appreciate. Ziyan, do you have anything... you want to tell me?" Gu Xuanyi cautiously probed.

An Wenqing frowned, puzzled: "What are you talking about?"

Gu Xuanyi meant something: "It's just something that you hesitate to say clearly to me, isn't it?"

An Wenqing thought about it seriously, and when he really thought of something, his face began to show displeasure: "I heard that there is a new beauty in Tinghua Xiaoge, who is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. The key is her posture. Graceful, masculine and feminine."

Gu Xuanyi lowered his head and touched his nose. Seeing his guilty look, An Wenqing sneered, "I also heard that you went there very diligently. How about it? The rumors are not true. That young master can catch your eyes? Presumably Yes, otherwise, I wouldn't have made a special trip to see him over and over again."

"Cough." Gu Xuanyi looked up at the sky, "The weather is not bad today."

An Wenqing quietly rolled his eyes, and muttered: "I'll go and see some other day."

In the courtyard of An Wenqing's house, Gu Xuanyi didn't dare to be intimate in broad daylight, so he could only get close to An Wenqing, his cheeks were close to his eyes but he couldn't touch them: "Tsk, where did such a strong smell of jealousy come from? Ziyan, when did your family start selling vinegar?"

"Tell me, why did you find me today?" An Wenqing put away Gu Xuanyi's painting, rolled it up, and put it away in the room.

Gu Xuanyi followed closely, and when An Wenqing returned to the house, he helped An Wenqing close the door.

An Wenqing: "Didn't we agree that we won't be at my house..."

Gu Xuanyi hugged An Wenqing's waist roguely: "But I miss you, I haven't touched you for a month after this year, if I can bear it any longer in front of people, I might as well Just go out and become a monk."

"You haven't said..."

"No rush, we'll talk about it later."

An Wenqing hesitated, but finally gave in. He caught sight of the open window sill out of the corner of his eye, and got up to close it.

The servants led Ma Yi to the yard, where the painting table, inkstone and brushes were all there, but no one was there: "It's strange, the young master and his friends were still here just now."

Ma Yi didn't care: "They should be in the house, you go down, I'll find him myself." He came to An Wenqing's door with ease, and was about to knock on the door, but his hand stopped in mid-air for a long time.

In broad daylight, why the doors and windows are locked, and thinking about who the guest who came earlier than him, I already have the answer in my heart.

The pestle hadn't moved in front of the door for a long time, and although there was no sound coming from the room, the image in his mind could no longer control his imagination. The hand that was about to knock on the door clenched into a fist and slammed hard on the wall beside him.

There was very little movement, so it shouldn't disturb the people in the house who were in the ups and downs.

"Heh..." Ma Yi stepped back slowly, stared straight at the door, and muttered softly, only he could hear, "I can't get it, and you can't get it either. Gu Xuanyi, cherish this last moment." time."

An Wenqing leaned against the head of the bed, slowly put on his clothes, Gu Xuanyi rubbed his face against his back, and muttered coquettishly: "I'm not full."

"Don't... I still want to get out of bed and walk."

Gu Xuanyi sighed: "Ziyan, you have such a strong body, practice it once in a while."

An Wenqing really wanted to turn around and kick the person on the bed, and held back: "If you like soft bodies, go find the young masters in the building. Isn't it just a coincidence that a fresh beauty came here? Go hug him Soft waist!"

Gu Xuanyi looked at An Wenqing with innocent eyes: "Why did you mention him again? Although I was curious to meet him a few times, I never touched a single finger." An Wenqing raised his eyebrows , Gu Xuanyi compromised and told the truth, "Well, he may have accidentally touched his finger when he toasted me, but there is nothing else other than that."

An Wenqing is naturally trustworthy, trustworthy is trustworthy, and when Gu Xuanyi goes to those places every day, it is inevitable that there will be a trace of displeasure in his heart.

Gu Xuanyi came down seriously, and explained: "Besides, you are not afraid that others will know about the two of us. I go there a few times occasionally, so that outsiders will think that I am still the old prodigal, not the current one..." .

Although this "wife" has not been married yet.

An Wenqing saw that he was not dressed yet, so she helped him, and Gu Xuanyi reluctantly cooperated: "You are in such a hurry to drive me away?"

An Wenqing paused with his busy hands, and slowed down: "I'm not driving you away. The doors and windows have been closed for so long, which will inevitably make people suspicious. You get dressed, and I open the doors and windows. You can stay as long as you want." .”

Finally hearing some comforting words, Gu Xuanyi stretched out his hand to caress An Wenqing's cheek: "Tell me, when will we stop being so sneaky? Don't worry about my elders. They knew that I would not marry a wife and have children. When the time comes, I will marry you." Give me a adopted son from another family."

If I tell them that from now on, I can make a companion and stop going out, I'm afraid I will be very happy.

The main difficulty is on Father An's side and the eyes of the world.

An Wenqing doesn't care too much about what other people say, but...he doesn't care, his father does.

A slightly pedantic scholar who is also devoted to the officialdom, how could he easily accept his son as another man's subordinate? For people like them, this is a matter of ruining the family tradition.

An Wenqing was silent for a while, opened the window sill, and the cool breeze from outside was sent into the room along with the sunlight, slightly dispelling the heavy weight on his shoulders.

Gu Xuanyi stepped forward and stood behind him, a little helpless: "I won't force you, I know this matter can't be rushed, but...you should also prepare, otherwise, I'm afraid that you will be forced by your father anytime. Then marry someone else's girl and leave me behind."

Thinking of the marriage that his father asked him to consider a few days ago, An Wenqing felt a little uneasy, and murmured: "Why do you think this way, since I am in love with you, why would I marry someone else, and waste the life of another girl in vain."

Gu Xuanyi finally asked the question he brought today: "I heard something about your family, so I went here to verify it, and I dared to ask you after I found out."

An Wenqing: "Huh?"

"Some time ago, your father bought a lot of gold and silver jewelry, jade treasures, which are very valuable."

An Wenqing looked back at Gu Xuanyi in surprise, his eyes were full of disbelief, his father clearly said that those boxes were full of cheap local specialties, if it was true what Gu Xuanyi said, his father's trip was not to visit friends, but to bribery!

Seeing that he was so excited, Gu Xuanyi asked, "You don't know about this?"

An Wenqing nodded, showing disappointment: "I didn't know that he had degenerated into such a field. Bribery is a felony. He used to hate this kind of behavior of buying officials the most."

Wait... a bribe?Now it was Gu Xuanyi's turn to look blank, how could this have anything to do with bribery.

After hesitating for a while, Gu Xuanyi decided to make it clear: "The old butler of your house took away the most eloquent matchmaker in the city. With the previous valuables, your father seems to be planning your marriage."

An Wenqing subconsciously blurted out: "Impossible, I have already declined... Uh."

Hearing the clue, Gu Xuanyi took advantage of the victory to pursue: "What did you say no to?"

An Wenqing looked at Gu Xuanyi's face, and chose to confess: "Have you ever heard of Mu Shangshu from the Ministry of Industry and Mu Xiaoshilang from the Ministry of Households?"

Gu Xuanyi: "I've heard a little bit about it."

An Wenqing sighed: "Years ago, my father wanted to marry Miss Mu's family and me, but I rejected it."

Gu Xuanyi was a little surprised: "You...with the Mu family?"
