Refusing to marry the king of broken sleeves

Opening his heavy eyes, Gu Shaoyuan took a look around, and what he saw was a house with simple furnishings.In the not-so-spacious house, there was only a wooden table, a simple wardrobe, and the bed he lay on, and there was no other furniture.

Where is he?Frowning, he recalled secretly, but felt that his head was very heavy.

Stretching out his hand and rubbing his forehead, he struggled to get up, but just after moving a little, he found that his whole body was in severe pain, and he fell back on the bed weakly.

And just when he repeated several times, but still couldn't sit up, the door of the room, which was closed tightly, was suddenly opened from the outside, making a creaking sound.

Immediately afterwards, a pretty figure walked in.

Ling Ruoyao walked into the room with a bowl of hot soup.But I didn't want to, as soon as I walked into the room, I saw Gu Shaoyuan looking at me with a surprised look.

Putting the medicine bowl on the wooden table, she walked up to him, smiled at him, helped him sit up, and let him lean against the bed rail: "Are you awake? I I've boiled the medicine for you, drink it while it's hot."

After speaking, she turned around and walked to the table, and brought the medicine bowl in front of Gu Shaoyuan.

Looking at the decoction in her hand, and then at the familiar and beautiful face in front of her, Gu Shaoyuan was still in a daze and puzzled, and he didn't come back to his senses. There was an expression of disbelief in his deep eyes.

He didn't expect that he would meet Ling Ruoyao in this small village.

From Ling Qinglian's mouth, he heard about Ling Ruoyao's fall from the cliff, and he also knew that they had been looking for her for three months, but there was still no news.

But he didn't expect that he would meet her by accident and be saved by her.

"What are you still doing?" Ling Ruoyao became impatient when she saw that he hadn't moved for a long time, "Hurry up and drink the medicine."

Only then did he hurriedly come to his senses, Gu Shaoyuan took the medicine bowl she handed over, raised his head and gulped down the whole bowl of medicine.

Seeing him drinking in such a hurry, Ling Ruoyao couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth, and quickly reminded: "Slow down, be careful of burning.

After he finished drinking the medicine, Ling Ruoyao began to ask him: "Young Master Gu, how did you get such a serious injury? You still appear in this small village?"

His eyes looked a little sharp, Gu Shaoyuan was silent for a while, and then he spoke, his tone was a little dignified and serious: "I often walk in the rivers and lakes, and it is inevitable that I will form a grudge."

"So, did the Chou family seek revenge from you?" Ling Ruoyao raised her delicate brows and asked aloud.

Nodding his head, Gu Shaoyuan still had a serious expression on his face, but there was a trace of cruelty in those deep eyes.

Without further questioning, Ling Ruoyao stood up and told him, "You are injured, you should take a good rest. I'm right outside, just call me if you need anything."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked out of the room.

"Second miss."

Seeing him calling out to her suddenly, Ling Ruoyao had no choice but to stop, turned around to look at him, and asked, "Is there anything else, Mr. Gu?"

"Thank you." Looking at her softly, Gu Shaoyuan raised the corners of his mouth and said calmly and softly.

She raised a bright smile at him, Ling Ruoyao waved her hand and said, "You don't have to be so polite. Anyway, you are also my brother's friend!"

However, after hearing her words, Gu Shaoyuan's eyes dimmed instantly, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

It turned out that she took care of herself like this only because he was Ling Qinglian's friend.

Without talking to him any more, Ling Ruoyao turned around and walked out of the room, her mood seemed a bit complicated.

Although she doesn't want to see Gu Shaoyuan, but because of his relationship with Ling Qinglian and the two know each other, she can't just leave him alone.

Moreover, she met Gu Shaoyuan here by such a coincidence, then, after Gu Shaoyuan recovers from his injury, she can let him take her back to the capital!In this way, she doesn't have to wait for Huangfu Yi to come to her anymore, it could be that she is going to find Huangfu Yi!

Thinking of this, her mood became more comfortable, and even the corners of her mouth raised up unconsciously.

After staying in this place for three months, she finally saw hope.

***

The heavy snow is still coming, fluttering down, like goose feathers, without any sign of stopping.

The majestic imperial palace was still covered in silver, with thick snow accumulated on the roof and the ground, and the entire world was shrouded in a vast expanse of whiteness.

A tall and straight figure stood on the winding corridor, holding the stove in both hands, looking deeply at the heavy snowflakes fluttering outside the corridor.

"Your Majesty." Suddenly, a slightly slender figure stepped forward, cupped his hands at the man, and said, "This subordinate has inquired about Miss Ling Er."

There was a moment of daze, and a look of surprise appeared on the handsome face with sharp edges and corners.Huangfu Yi hurriedly turned his head to look at Ye Yuan, and asked anxiously: "Really? Did you really find out about her?"

There is strong, undisguised joy and excitement in the tone, but also strong worry.

It's been three months, he's been looking for her for three full months, and finally he has heard good news.

Ye Yuan lowered his head slightly, with a respectful look: "Go back to the emperor, and my subordinates went down the river until they came to the border with the sky kingdom, and saw a village. I heard from the people in the village that three months ago, A man and a woman were washed to the head of the village by the river."

"And then? Did you see Ruoyao?" Huangfu Yi was still very excited, and before Ye Yuan finished speaking, he hurriedly asked, "Why didn't you bring her back directly?"

"Your Majesty, please listen to your subordinates."

Only then did he realize that he was emotionally agitated, Huangfu Yi cleared his throat, and waved his hand to let him continue.

"The subordinate went down to the village and saw Miss Ling Er, but Miss Ling Er did not see the subordinate." Ye Yuan said, and slightly raised his head to look at him, "The reason why the subordinate did not bring Miss Ling back is because It's because...the subordinates found out that Second Miss Ling is living with a man."

What he said made Huangfu Yi stunned for a moment, staggered, and then took a step back. There was a hint of disbelief in his long and narrow phoenix eyes, and his face changed instantly.

But it was only for a moment before he calmed down and retorted: "It's also possible that Ruoyao lived with him because that person saved Ruoyao. Do you know the identity of that person?"

"My subordinates have inquired. The person who rescued Second Miss Ling was a hunter surnamed Li. The family of hunters surnamed Li lives next to Miss Second." Ye Yuan hesitated again, "And The man that Second Miss lives with is none other than Ji Shaoyuan, the crown prince of Cang Qiong Kingdom."

"Ji Shaoyuan?!" Huangfu Yi was startled again, and Ying Ting's brows frowned instantly, "How could it be him? How could Ruoyao be with him? Did you see clearly that that person is really Ji Shaoyuan?"

"Although this subordinate has never had direct contact with Ji Shaoyuan, he still knows about Ji Shaoyuan. This subordinate will never admit his mistake. That person is definitely Ji Shaoyuan."

Ye Yuan's tone and expression were extraordinarily firm and serious, and he had no reason to wrong Ling Ruoyao, and he still wronged her to be with Ji Shaoyuan.

As a result, Huangfu Yi's brows were tightened even more, his expression was gloomy and serious, and even his whole body was covered with a layer of gloomy and cold aura.

Pursing his thin lips, he meditated secretly, thinking about what was going on.

"Let's put this aside for now." After being silent for a while, Huangfu Yi said again, "Go and bring Ruoyao back, as soon as possible!"

"Yes. This subordinate will go now!" Ye Yuan took the order and retreated respectfully.

However, he turned around and walked not far away, when he saw a sturdy figure walking towards him with big strides.

"See Your Majesty."

"Get up." Waving his hand, Huangfu Yu asked suspiciously, "What are you going to do in such a hurry? Has brother Huang entrusted you with any tasks?"

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Yuan said: "This subordinate has found out the whereabouts of Second Miss Ling, and the emperor ordered his subordinates to go down and bring Second Miss back."

"Really?" Huangfu Yu was also pleasantly surprised, "If that's the case, then hurry up and don't delay any longer!"

Before Ye Yuan could reply, he bypassed him and walked straight towards Huangfu Yi not far away.

Walking in front of him, Huangfu Yu said excitedly: "Brother Huang, is there really Miss Ling's whereabouts?"

Huangfu Yi was still thinking about what Ye Yuan said just now, his face looked very serious, and he didn't show the slightest joy, which made Huangfu Yu very strange.

"Brother Huang?" Wei Wei leaned closer to him, Huangfu Yu sized him up and asked puzzledly, "Brother Huang, isn't it happy?"

Only then did he suddenly come back to his senses, Huangfu Yi put away the messy thoughts in his heart, sighed lightly and said: "How could I be unhappy? It's just that there has been no news for three months, but now he suddenly told me that I was overjoyed to find Ruoyao."

Couldn't help laughing out loud, Huangfu Yu jokingly said: "Brother Huang, you wish to see Second Miss Ling right away? Don't worry, I believe Ye Yuan will bring Miss Ling back soon! When the time comes, you You don’t have to suffer from lovesickness anymore!”

"Really?" With complicated eyes, Huangfu Yi chuckled lightly, but didn't speak again.

If he hadn't heard that Ling Ruoyao lived with the crown prince of Cang Qiong Kingdom, he would definitely be overjoyed, but at this moment, he didn't know what kind of mood he was in.

He really couldn't imagine, what would he do if Ling Ruoyao really had some ulterior relationship with Ji Shaoyuan?

"Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?" Huangfu Yu hurriedly asked when he saw that his face had become ugly.

Shaking his head, Huangfu Yi sneered twice: "I'm fine. By the way, why did you come to the palace to find me?"

After he asked, Huangfu Yu remembered the business, put away the smile on his face, with a serious expression, and said in a low tone: "Brother Huang, there is news from the border town."

"Oh?" Seeing his solemn expression, Huangfu Yi also became serious, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What news?"

"Ling Qinglian is defeated."

The hands holding the stove tightened for a moment, and the slender fingers had distinct knuckles. Huangfu Yi was stunned for a moment, and asked, "You said, Ling Qinglian was defeated?"

Nodding his head, Huangfu Yu said firmly again: "After a few victories, the situation suddenly turned one-sided. Our side was defeated one after another, and the front was in a hurry."

"Why didn't I know about such an important matter? Why didn't anyone tell me?!" Huangfu Yi immediately became angry and scolded, a layer of cruelty appeared on Jun's face.

"Brother Huang, calm down." Huangfu Yu hurriedly persuaded, "When I first entered the palace, I met a messenger who came back from the border town. No, I hurried to find Brother Huang." , took out a memorial, and handed it to Huangfu Yi.

Taking the one in his hand and walking, Huangfu Yi frowned, and browsed it roughly, but after reading it, he closed the memorial with a snap.Then Gu Si Shao.

"What a waste!" With an angry reprimand, he threw the memorial back into Huangfu Yu's arms, "I sent Ling Qinglian to fight in the hope that he could win the battle again, but what about him? He was defeated one after another! Don't let others Tell me! What? He is afraid that I will find out and punish him? Since you are afraid, then come back to see me after winning the battle!"

"Brother, calm down."

He was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, Huangfu Yi didn't speak any more, but there was an unconcealable anger on Jun's face.

After being silent for a while, he said in a low voice: "Lao Liu, I leave this matter to you, and you go to the border town to take over from Ling Qinglian."

After being stunned for a moment, Huangfu Yu cupped his hands and said, "I obey the order."

***

Under Ling Ruoyao's care, Gu Shaoyuan's injury gradually improved and he was able to move around freely.

His injury has recovered, which means that the day when she leaves here is not far away.

Thinking that she was about to leave here and go back to the capital, Ling Ruoyao felt a burst of unstoppable joy in her heart.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Shaoyuan looked at Ling Ruoyao, who was smiling to himself, suspiciously, and asked, "Is there anything funny that makes me laugh too?"

Only then did she quickly come to her senses, Ling Ruoyao hurriedly put away her worries, shook her head at him and said, "It's nothing. Drink the medicine first."

"I've finished drinking the medicine." Gu Shaoyuan said, shaking the empty medicine bowl in front of her, "Or, today's medicine has increased the dose, and I have to drink another bowl?"

Being ridiculed by him like this, Ling Ruoyao blushed suddenly, feeling extremely embarrassed.Looking up and glaring at him viciously, she said angrily: "It costs money to buy medicine! It's not that you can drink an extra bowl if you want to."

"Since when did Second Miss become such a philistine?" Gu Shaoyuan said with a look of surprise.

Throwing a knife at him, Ling Ruoyao gritted her teeth with hatred, stared at him sharply, and said with a cold snort: "If you give me the money to buy the medicine, I won't be such a philistine!"

"Tsk tsk, isn't this a philistine?" Shaking his head pretentiously, Gu Shaoyuan said regretfully, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it."

Too lazy to pay attention to him, Ling Ruoyao glared at him one last time, said "You stay well", turned around and walked out of the room.

Seeing that pretty figure walk out of the room, Gu Shaoyuan put away the smile on his face and his eyes became sharp.

He turned his head slightly, glanced towards the window, and said in a deep voice, "Come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw an agile figure jumping in from the open window, quickly came to the bedside, and cupped his hands at him: "Your subordinate sees the lord."

"How's the matter going?" Gu Shaoyuan asked casually just looking at the person passing by.

"My lord, everything is going according to plan."

"That's good." Gu Shaoyuan nodded, his expression still serious.

The man quietly raised his head and glanced at Gu Shaoyuan, and boldly said: "My lord's injury is almost healed, I don't know my lord, when will I leave here?"

His eyes dimmed, Gu Shaoyuan pursed his lips and pondered for a while, then waved his hand and said: "I have my own plan for this matter, and you should take care of your own affairs."

"Yes. If the master has no other orders, this subordinate will leave first."

With a wave of his hand, Gu Shaoyuan sent the man away.

Let's say that Ling Ruoyao, who walked out of the room, came to the kitchen with the medicine bowl and was cleaning the tableware.While cleaning, she angrily cursed Gu Shaoyuan who made fun of her.

And just after she wiped the medicine bowl seven times, a loud and high-pitched voice suddenly came from outside the house: "Sister Ling! Sister Ling, are you at home? Sister Ling?"

Putting down the bowl in her hand, Ling Ruoyao turned around and quickly walked out of the kitchen. At a glance, she saw Aunt Li trotting into her yard.

Walking towards Aunt Li, she asked suspiciously, "Aunt Li, what's the matter in such a hurry?"

When she came to Ling Ruoyao, Aunt Li pulled her and was about to walk out of the yard: "Your family has come to look for you, and they are waiting for you at our house."

"Family?" Ling Ruoyao was immediately surprised. Could it be that Ling Yan sent someone to look for her?

What she didn't know was that when she was pulled out of the yard by Aunt Li, Gu Shaoyuan, who was resting in the room, walked to the gate, looked at her with deep and complicated eyes, and the big hands behind his back suddenly tightened fist.

If she is taken back to Beijing, does that mean that he can no longer be alone with her?

Following Aunt Li came to her house, Ling Ruoyao had just entered the courtyard when she saw Uncle Li and Li Erniu also came out to welcome her.

"Sister Ling, your family is here, go in quickly."

Nodding towards Li Erniu, Ling Ruoyao quickly walked towards the house, feeling very excited and even a little nervous.

Walking into the room, she immediately saw a slightly thin figure standing in the room with her back turned to her.

Staring at this figure suspiciously, she frowned, and after a moment of silence, she called out: "Ye Yuan?"

Turning around, Ye Yuan arched his hands towards her, lowered his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Second Miss, please go back to Beijing with your subordinates."

She was stunned for a moment, Ling Ruoyao couldn't recover, but she was extremely excited in her heart.

Did Huangfu Yi ask Ye Yuan to pick her up?He finally sent someone to pick her up!
