Chapter 3 Rumors
She remembered that she fell into the water three days ago and was rescued by a man named Gu Qingzhao, the master of Dali Academy.

He was elected at the age of 14, and became an official at the age of 15. Three years later, he almost became a king and worshiped the minister. When his official career was bright, he resolutely chose to resign, and entered the most famous academy in Daye as a teacher, and cultivated for Daye Many talents.

Everyone said that this person had a great future but abandoned it like a waste, some lamented it, some regretted it, but not all of them expressed their pity.

She felt that Gu Qingzhao had become a master and had trained many talents for Daye. Such a prosperous city like Daye could not do without the help of this master.

"Oh", sighed lightly.

An Ning rubbed her brows. This afternoon in her previous life, there were many rumors about her and Gu Qingzhao. There were all kinds of ugly words. They had already been given and accepted in private. She fell in love with the prince, and Gu Qingzhao fell in love with her at first sight. Going into the water to rescue her in danger, there are all kinds of messes.

In her previous life, she didn't know Gu Qingzhao at all. Because of these rumors, she didn't even go to thank him for saving his life. Not only that, she also avoided Gu Qingzhao everywhere. Frankly, in contrast, her previous life was indeed terribly stupid, and the more she hid, the more these rumors were confirmed.

"Moonlight, next post, prepare a gift, this afternoon, I will visit Mr. Gu, thank him for saving his life."

"Yes."

After the general's mansion posted the post, it spread throughout the capital in just a few hours. They just heard about the affair between An Ning, the eldest lady of the general's mansion, and Mr. Gu, and they immediately posted a post to visit Mr. Gu, saying thank you for saving Mr. Gu's life Thank you, anyone who reads it will feel that the rumors are spread by someone with a heart. After all, if there is something really wrong, and there is no time to hide it, who will attack it head-on.

In the afternoon, the carriage was ready, and the servants carried stacks of books to the carriage.

This is a thank-you gift prepared by An Ning, all of which are single copies. Scholars must like books, and besides, Mr. Gu, a person like Mr. Gu, certainly doesn't like vulgar things.

Starting from the General's Mansion, the carriage stopped in about half an hour.

"Miss, here we are."

An Ning lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the scene outside and paused for a moment.

This is?

Cottages?
The men in the capital who are talked about by women are usually the crown prince and the seventh prince. Before Gu Qingzhao resigned, there was still a lot of discussion, but after a few years of his resignation, few people talked about him anymore.

She had never heard of him living in such a place.

An Ning walked down from the carriage slowly, stepping on the slightly damp ground, it had been raining for several days, and one could smell the fragrance of green grass.Looking around again, the scenery is extremely beautiful, and looking to the right, there are more than a dozen maple trees outside the thatched house. The hazy scenery that can only be seen in dreams, the maple leaves slowly and quietly fall to the ground, a large area looks like a burning cloud, an indescribably beautiful scene, the wind blows slightly, rustling, pleasing to the eyes and ears.

An Ning looked to the other side of the house, and there was a stream more than ten meters away from the hut, which was so clear that it reflected the entire mountain trees, the sound of the stream passing through, and the sound of "ding dong ding dong" , She closed her eyes and listened carefully to the pleasant sounds of nature.

"Kang Dang", the door opened behind him.

An Ning slowly turned her head with her clothes, and at that moment she couldn't help sighing: In a place like a fairy, there lived a person like a fairy.

He stood outside the threshold of the thatched cottage, with a tall and handsome figure, and a face as clear as jade.Dressed in white clothes, with a hairpin to tie her hair, and nothing else on her body, she looks like a fairy who is not stained by all the dust in the world.Why did she always stare at the prince in the past? It is obvious that such a character, with this temperament, is the most eye-catching in the world.

"Miss Ann."

He spoke, his voice was cold and distant but not rude.

An Ning looked away, and gave a little apologetic salute, she was the one who offended just now.

"Sorry, Mr. Gu."

"Miss An, it was just a matter of raising your hands that day. Miss An doesn't need to say thanks, and there is no place to entertain girls in the humble house. Please go back."

His cold voice sounded again, but it was gentle and sincere, not the kind of deliberate driving.

An Ning pursed her lips, she thought he probably didn't want to be contaminated by this worldliness.

An Ning took a few steps towards Gu Qingzhao, stopped in front of him, and said sincerely: "An Ning didn't mean to bother Mr., one is for the life-saving grace of the past few days, and the other is for the rumors circulating in the market today, I'm sorry, yes Mr. An Ning is deeply affected by it."

An Ning raised her hand, just as she was about to apologize again, when Gu Qingzhao put one hand under her arm, stopped her from squatting down, and asked with some doubts: "Miss, what are you sorry for?"

An Ning raised her head and looked into his eyes. They are really deep eyes, as if there is an endless and wide world in those eyes, the sea of ​​stars and clouds, the ebb and flow of the tide, everything can be imagined.

An Ning slowly put down her hands, that's right, they were all right, she didn't need to feel sorry, it was those who spread rumors for no reason, those who treated rumors as a joke, not them.

"Thank you."

No need to be sorry, but thanks.

Gu Qingzhao smiled lightly, this smile was like the cloud of fire on the ground, moving people's hearts and minds.

The words were a little more gentle than before, "Miss An, although I don't know what happened to you, but you are fine now."

They didn't have any personal relationship in the past, and every time they met, it was because of the prince. He may have seen her being foolish for love, seeing her courteous in front of the prince, and seeing her in all kinds of embarrassment, but at this moment, he seemed to know her It's different, it's different from the peaceful, thorough, reborn one in the past.

An Ning's smile deepened, "Today, I brought some small gifts for my husband. They are some unique copies. I hope you will accept them."

Gu Qingzhao thought for a moment, then nodded, and asked again: "I will bring them into the library of Dali Academy, is that okay?"

An Ning nodded with sparkling eyes, "Of course, it's all up to Mister."

After she got into the carriage again, she opened the curtain and looked back, seeing that the door that was just opened was closed tightly again. Wouldn't it be great if a stone table and chairs were built in front of the house for such a beautiful scenery.

Then look at the fiery red maple leaf in her hand. This maple leaf fell from the tree when she was standing in front of the house chatting with her husband just now, and it just landed on her shoulder, so she took it A leaf was brought back.

An Ning murmured: "Meeting is fate, let's take you back. After that, there may be no chance to come to this place again."

An Ning was frank when he came, and he was frank when he returned.

The rumors I saw in the past only talked about it for an afternoon, and then gradually disappeared. Anecdotes should be interesting to talk about. Who would talk about things that are not interesting? An Ning's move has confirmed the innocence between her and Gu Qingzhao , and some literati who admired Gu Qingzhao tried their best to clarify, the matter disappeared in a short time.
