Chapter 175 Entering Yuezhou

Gu's mansion is a big mansion, although Gu Chengli has only become Yushi Zhongcheng from Zhizhou, he is still a fifth-rank official.

But because he is a descendant of the Gu family in Ningzhou, he came from the same family as Gu Jixiu, and he is a cousin with Gu Chengyi, the head of the Gu family in the capital, and he is indeed capable, so the banquet to welcome Gu Chengli was full of fanfare and lively.

And this banquet was hosted by Gu Qiming and assisted by Gu Qiyuan.

It's just that at this banquet, Gu Qiyuan didn't pay much attention to the banquet. He sat next to Gu Qiming, but his eyes glanced at Gu Chen who was sitting in the guest seat from time to time.

After a while, probably because he couldn't bear it anymore, he couldn't help asking Gu Qiming in a low voice:

"Second brother, didn't you say...Gu...Gu Ningshun is a man? This..."

"Um……"

Gu Qiming was stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously looked in Gu Chen's direction. After sizing up his appearance and figure, he said in a low voice:
"It should be a man. I think grandfather and uncle should not make such a mistake."

"But……"

"Hey, you don't care whether he is a man or a woman, no matter whether he is a man or a woman, since grandfather values ​​it, we must treat it with caution and deal with the banquet with peace of mind, and we will discuss anything after the banquet is over."

Perhaps because of his impatience at being asked, Gu Qiming stopped talking to Gu Qiyuan.

Gu Qiyuan closed his mouth and stopped talking, but his eyes still kept looking at Gu Chen.

It's no wonder that the two brothers have such thoughts, it's really easy to misunderstand Gu Chen's current appearance.

The breath of flowers enhances Gu Chen's temperament, the increase of likes and dislikes enhances Gu Chen's good impression in the eyes of others, power further enhances Gu Chen's charm, even the manipulation of five senses adds a bit of indescribable charm to Gu Chen.

Combined with several abilities, even if Gu Chen is very masculine and has a neutral appearance, he is still easily misunderstood as a girl.

It's just because everyone around Gu Chen would follow Gu Chen's voice, so no one ever pointed out these problems to Gu Chen.

Now, Gu Chen didn't use his own likes and dislikes to increase, and he didn't deliberately increase someone's favor, so other people's impressions of Gu Chen became diversified.

Gu Qiyuan was one of the people who was captured by Gu Chen's appearance.

Even if the second elder brother Gu Qiming explained that Gu Chen was not a woman, Gu Qiyuan still had doubts in his heart. Looking at Gu Chen, he unconsciously thought of the stories and rumors told by other people when he was in the land of love and moon.

Some woman disguised herself as a man in order not to be looked down upon by others, and she lived as a man since she was a child in order not to be used by a big family as a tool for marriage...

Such stories flashed through Gu Qiyuan's head one by one.

Then he replaced the protagonist of these stories with Gu Chen.

Then he seemed to understand something.

"I see……"

Gu Qiyuan nodded his head as if he understood something, and then looked at Gu Chen with a little more heat in his eyes.

……

Together with Gu Chengli, Gu Chen dealt with the family members of the Gu family.

Through the introduction, Gu Chen knew the general situation of the Gu family in Jingzhou.

Generally speaking, most officials like Gu Chengli who work in the capital have residences distributed by the imperial court. However, since Gu Chengli is a direct descendant of the Gu family, he can make an exception and live in the prime minister's mansion.

Correspondingly, other direct descendants can also live in the prime minister's mansion, and only a small number live outside because they want to avoid suspicion.

But having said that, there are not many people with the surname Gu in the Gu mansion. Even with the addition of Gu Chengli and Gu Chen who just arrived, there are no more than ten fingers in the whole mansion with the surname 'Gu'.

Therefore, Gu Chen, who also has the same surname as Gu, can walk sideways in the entire prime minister's mansion. Even if he leaves the prime minister's mansion to play in the capital, as long as he declares his surname, he will most likely be treated respectfully by others.

This is a good thing for Gu Chen, with this identity, at least Gu Chen doesn't have to worry about encountering the kind of plot where someone takes advantage of power to oppress and then stands up to resist.

It's fine if Gu Chen doesn't bully others.

only……

"Why does Gu Qiyuan always look at me?"

While drinking tea instead of wine, Gu Chen also noticed Gu Qiyuan's eyes.

Anyway, Gu Chen is now a master of the master realm, with extremely keen perception, Gu Qiyuan's scrutiny that he thinks is concealed, is actually no different from being upright, so it can be easily noticed by Gu Chen.

Gu Qiyuan's eyes are quite familiar to Gu Chen. When he uses his likes and dislikes to increase the favor of others, countless people will look at him with this kind of eyes.

but……

Because of Gu Chengli's reminder, Gu Chen himself did not dare to use his ability in the capital to cause trouble, so since he entered the capital, he has been suppressing the display of his ability.

Apart from the vague influence of spreading his stance, Gu Chen was really peaceful and did not improve anyone's favor towards him.

So what happened to Gu Qiyuan?

Could it be...

Gu Chen had some bad guesses in his mind. He had heard some rumors about extravagant behavior in big families, and he also knew that many people only liked beautiful people and didn't care about men and women, so at this moment, he instinctively had a guess.

This Gu Qiyuan... Could it be that he likes men...?
Thinking of this, Gu Chen felt chills all over his body.

Using likes and dislikes to increase the goodwill gained is different from the goodwill that other people automatically have. The former is promoted by Gu Chen and is under Gu Chen's control, while the latter is not under Gu Chen's control, which makes Gu Chen very upset. Hate.

Therefore, seeing that Gu Qiyuan looked at him with something wrong, Gu Chen had the urge to destroy him immediately.

If it wasn't for Gu Qiyuan's surname Gu, if it wasn't for keeping a low profile as much as possible in the capital, Gu Chen might have already made a move.

"...Third Uncle, it may be due to the exhaustion of traveling and traveling. I am not feeling well, so I will go back and rest first."

Feeling that there was no point in staying here, and because he didn't want to see Gu Qiyuan's uncomfortable eyes, Gu Chen got up and said to Gu Chengli.

Gu Chengli frowned slightly, it was somewhat impolite to leave in the middle of the banquet, but since Gu Chen said he was not feeling well, Gu Chengli couldn't force Gu Chen to stay.

Looking Gu Chen up and down, Gu Chengli said:

"Alright, you are weak and weak, it's time to go back and take a rest."

After Gu Chengli finished speaking, Gu Chen nodded, got up and saluted everyone apologetically, then turned and left.

But after he left, Gu Qiyuan also stood up and said to Gu Qiming:

"Second brother, I'm going to see Ning Shun."

"...It's fine, but remember, don't make trouble for others, and you can't even mention 'illegitimate children'! Did you hear that!"

Gu Qiming also knew his younger brother's temperament, and also understood that keeping him at the banquet was embarrassing him, so when Gu Qiyuan got up and left, Gu Qiming didn't stop him, but just reminded him not to make trouble, then turned his head and continued Talk to Gu Chengli.

Gu Qiyuan repeatedly nodded in response, then hastily saluted Gu Chengli, then got up and left, chasing after Gu Chen.

Gu Chen took Jie Biao Danxi to the room he had arranged for him. Before he had gone far, he heard footsteps behind him, and turned his head to see that Gu Qiyuan was following.

Slightly frowning, Gu Chen and Jie Biao got closer, with a smile on his face, and asked Gu Qiyuan with some doubts:

"Brother Xiude, this is..."

Gu Qiyuan's character is Xiude. According to his age and seniority, it is right for Gu Chen to call him elder brother.

Hearing Gu Chen calling his brother, Gu Qiyuan smiled, and he and Gu Chen got closer, and said to him:

"The Gu mansion is too big, I'm worried... I'm worried that Ning Shun will get lost in the mansion, so I thought of coming over and taking you to your room first."

"If you have someone to lead the way, don't bother Brother Xiude to worry."

"It's all a family, so what do you do when you see someone else? Go for a walk, and it's just for my brother to take you around the Gu family."

Gu Qiyuan took the lead and walked in front, Gu Chen squinted his eyes, exchanged a glance with Jie Biao Danxi who was beside him, sighed slowly, followed Gu Qiyuan, and walked to the room arranged for him.

……

Yuezhou.

Zhang Shouchen, a disciple of Juexin Medical Palace, stopped at the border of Yuezhou with Gu Yu.

Zhang Shouchen was the disciple who led the witches to the Juexin Medical Palace. After Shanteng and others lived at the foot of the Juexin Medical Palace, Shanteng and Gu Yu began to divide into two groups according to the order of the nurse. Go to Juexin Medical Palace and Yuezhou.

Because the matter of Juexin Medical Palace is more important, it is something that Gu Chen specially entrusted, Shanteng can't go away, so Shanto is in charge of Juexin Medical Palace, and Gu Yu followed Zhang Shouchen to Yuezhou to find out the situation in Yuezhou.

"Miss Yu, I actually don't recommend you to go, because Yuezhou is a place where you can go and never return."

Before entering Yuezhou, Zhang Shouchen said to Gu Yu in the carriage.

There is no cure for the disease in Yuezhou, and now it has been completely surrounded by the local defenders. No one can leave Yuezhou, including these defenders.

Those who are sick are lying in bed waiting to die, and those who are not sick are also living in panic. At this moment, Yuezhou has undoubtedly become a place where rituals and music are broken. Not only are there the dangers of epidemics, but also those who Knowing that there is no cure for themselves, there is a danger of burning, killing and looting people everywhere.

Because the disciples of Juexin Medical Palace possess martial arts and as doctors, they will not be harmed by people from Yuezhou, but outsiders like Gu Yu, who are still good-looking outsiders, are easy targets for attackers.

Today's Yuezhou people don't care about your identity or which family you come from. They are all a group of people who are about to die. For this kind of people, the last enjoyment before death is the most important thing. Nothing to do with them.

Gu Yu sat in the carriage, looked at the sunlight falling outside through the gap in the carriage, smiled lightly and said to Zhang Shouchen outside the carriage:
"Don't worry, I can also do martial arts. I have some ability to protect myself. Brother Zhang just needs to protect himself."

"That being said..."

"Brother Zhang... My uncle is in Yuezhou now. Before I came, my elder brother specifically asked me to find my uncle. Does Brother Zhang want me to be that unfaithful and unfilial person?"

Without waiting for Zhang Shouchen to speak, Gu Yu gave Zhang Shouchen the reason he had prepared long ago.

Going to Yuezhou to find his lost uncle was Gu Yu's excuse to enter Yuezhou. Without such an excuse, it would probably be impossible to enter Yuezhou openly.
