Chapter 266 Commitment

As soon as Rujin heard that he was going to Longxi, he asked nervously: "What's wrong? What did I do wrong?"

Ruji's disgusted voice sounded again, "Why do you act like a fool? How do you work as an errand beside me when you have no sharp eyesight at all?"

 Ru Ji was a little annoyed. He raised his hand and patted Ru Ji and said, "Let go and talk properly.

It’s not like you don’t know that I am upright, just like you, I have a delicate heart.

We grew up together and served the same master. I couldn't think of anything, but you have thought of it. What would happen if you remind me? "

Ruji said: "Well, you didn't expect it, but you are still reasonable! Listen carefully, I and the master haven't seen each other for several days, right?"

 Ru Yan nodded and said, "Isn't this obvious?"

Ruji continued: "Then haven't you seen that I have been restless these past few days, staring at my eyes, and looking listless day by day?

Look again at how energetic and radiant I was when I saw the master in Yifuyuan. Didn’t you notice anything about the changes before and after my father? "

 Ru Yan asked dully: "What can you see?"

 Ruji looked at the sky speechlessly, "You piece of wood, I don't know what to say to you.

Let me tell you this, right now, I just want to talk to the master, so let’s not disturb them. "

“But, it’s time to eat, aren’t you hungry just talking?”

“Why doesn’t this make sense to you? I mean, I don’t care what I eat right now, we just need to prepare food according to my usual taste.

  No, just prepare it according to the master's taste. "

 “Why are they prepared according to the princess’s taste?” Ru Yan was confused again.

"Because the master is someone I care about. Alas, I can't explain it to you." Ruji said with a tired heart.

 Ru Jin said: "Why can't I make sense? I mean, why don't you prepare it according to the taste of the master and the princess?"

 “You are right, just prepare it according to the taste of me and the master.”

 “What does the princess like to eat?”

Ru Ji thought for a while and said, "Master's taste is too strong, almost as good as mine. You go to the kitchen and ask the cook to cook some spicy and fragrant Sichuan dishes. I'll be waiting here. If master has any orders, I'll be here to answer them." "

 “Okay, I’ll go then.”

Lu Ziqin bent down and picked up Gu Huayu, and walked to the soft couch. As he walked, he said, "Ruji has a delicate mind and has a bright future! Ruji is stupid and dull. Do you want to punish him to live in Longxi for a while?"

Gu Huayu shook her head, "Forget it, you'd better let him stay with you."

Lu Ziqin sat down with Gu Huayu in his arms and asked, "Why?"

Gu Huayu leaned in Lu Ziqin's arms, "Let a stupid person teach people, and why don't you teach a bunch of stupid people?"

Lu Ziqin laughed out loud, "That makes sense, so let's keep him by your side and don't let him harm others."

Gu Huayu nodded seriously, "Yes, that's the truth."

Lu Ziqin raised his hand and rubbed Gu Huayu's head, "Little guy, have you missed me these days?"

Gu Huayu glanced at Lu Ziqin coquettishly, "Guess!"

Lv Ziqin lowered his head and pressed it against Gu Huayu's forehead, "I don't want to guess. I want you to tell me. I want to hear it from your own mouth."

Lu Ziqin's magnetic voice fell on Gu Huayu's heart, making her extremely fascinated. She couldn't help but said: "Qingyan, I like to be with you, I like to listen to you speak, and I like to look at you like this."

Gu Huayu followed her heart and said whatever she thought in her heart.

But her unexpected confession made Lu Ziqin stunned, and then he hugged her tightly, "Little guy, I am too. I have been thinking about you so much these days that I have almost gone crazy. If you hadn't let me lie in bed for ten days, I would have gone to find you. is you."

Gu Huayu nestled in Lu Ziqin's arms and said quietly: "I wanted to come back earlier. The day I went to Zhuangzi, there was a group of people following me. In order to get rid of that group of people, Qingyu and I abandoned the official road and took the small road. Go to Zhuangzi."

Gu Huayu's intuition has always been very accurate. When she heard the rapid sound of horse hooves, she felt that the group was heading for her.

A few days later, when she thought about what happened that day, she still firmly believed in her original judgment.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ziqin sat up straight and said seriously: "A whole group of people are following you to Zhuangzi? Approximately how many people are there?"

Gu Huayu nodded, "Yes, there are about ten or twenty people."

Lu Ziqin asked: "Who can know your whereabouts and mobilize so many people at once? Who is this person? From the Hua family? From the British Duke? Or from the Prime Minister's Palace?"

Gu Huayu shook her head, "It hasn't been found out. It's not clear yet. I was worried that something might happen to Zhuangzi, so I stayed in Zhuangzi for a few more days. It's possible for these families."

Lu Ziqin nodded, "When you come back, where is Zhuangzi? Have you made arrangements?"

The people living on Zhuangzi are the people Gu Huayu cares about, and they are Gu Huayu's weakness.

Gu Huayu nodded and said: "Additional manpower has been sent to Zhuangzi. Uncle Mi is stationed there. I will send Uncle Ruan Wu over later. Zhuangzi should be fine."

 If it is an enemy, their target is me. I am not in Zhuangzi, and their attention should follow me to the city. Maybe, the people following me today are the same group of people that day. "

Lu Ziqin frowned slightly and said, "It's possible, let's wait for Ruxuan to come back and see how his investigation goes? Xiaoyu, you must take more people with you when you go out."

Lu Ziqin looked at Gu Huayu with worry and concern in his eyes.

 Gu Huayu raised her hand and touched his brow, "Don't worry, I'm very alert, they can't hurt me, I will protect myself."

Lu Ziqin smoothly held Gu Huayu's hand, "But we are in the light, the enemy is in the dark, and the swords and arrows are ruthless. What if I hurt you? What do you want me to do if something happens to you?"

Gu Huayu raised her head, kissed Lu Ziqin, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, the soldiers will cover up the water and the earth. I promise you, I will protect myself and never let anything happen to me. By the way, do you know Hua Ruijun?" "

Gu Huayu didn't want Lu Ziqin to worry, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Hua Ruijun? Hua Xu's eldest son? Why are you asking about him?" Lu Ziqin asked with a frown.

Gu Huayu nodded and told Lu Ziqin about Hua Ruiming taking her to the gambling house.

After hearing this, Lu Ziqin's face darkened, "Hua Ruiming actually took you to the gambling house? The gambling house is a mixed bag of people, and there are all kinds of people. It's so chaotic. How can you go to the gambling house with him?"

Gu Huayu tilted her head and looked at Lu Ziqin, and whispered: "Are you angry? I dressed up as a man.

If I had not gone to the gambling house, I would not have known that Hua Ruijun was the owner of the gambling house and the current situation of Long Shadow Guard. Right? Qingyan, do you know Hua Ruijun? "

Lu Ziqin shook his head, "I don't know, I just know that he is the eldest son of Hua Xu's concubine, and his biological mother seems to be a prostitute.

Hua Xu was a womanizer when she was young and liked to go to places like Fireworks Alley and Liuliu. In this regard, Hua Ruiming is very similar to Hua Xu.

Hua Ruiming’s mother Liu is Mrs. Li’s cousin, and Mrs. Li is my second aunt. It was Mrs. Li who single-handedly facilitated the marriage between Liu and Hua Xu.

 Wait a minute. I'll let Ruji come in. I'll ask him about the affairs of the Hua family. He should know. "

Gu Huayu immediately sat up straight and said, "Qingyan, wait a minute, I'll clean up first."

Gu Huayu took out the cosmetic bag she carried with her and applied light makeup on herself to cover up her slightly red and swollen mouth. She looked in the mirror and felt satisfied before saying, "Okay, let Ruji come in." Bar."

Gu Huayu's movements made Lu Ziqin's eyes light up. He liked the way she was casual in front of him and didn't treat him as an outsider.

Lu Ziqin pinched the tip of Gu Huayu's nose, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay."

 After saying that, Lu Ziqin raised his voice and shouted: "Here comes someone"

Ruji pushed open the door and came in. He lowered his hand and asked, "Sir, master."

Lu Ziqin said: "How much do you know about Hua Xu's eldest son Hua Ruijun? Tell me what you know."

Ruji leaned over and said, "Okay, Hua Ruijun was born to Hua Xu and a brothel girl named Yue Niang.

After Mrs. Liu married into the Hua Mansion, she found some excuse to send Yue Niang out.

Hua Xu arranged for Yue Niang to live in the Baokangmen area behind Liu's back.

 Hua Ruijun is diligent and studious, and the people around Hua Xu treat him well. His martial arts was taught by Chen Liang, making him good at swordsmanship.

After Hua Xu died, the Liu family expelled Hua Ruijun and Hua Ruiqi from the Hua Mansion.

Hua Ruijun took Hua Ruiqi to live at the residence of his biological mother Yue Niang in Baokangmen.

these years. Hua Ruijun opened gambling houses, carriage houses, teahouses, and cloth shops in the capital one after another. That's all the young man knew. "

Lu Ziqin nodded, "I understand, go down."

 Ruji took the opportunity to ask: "Sir, master, the food is ready, do you want to pass on the dishes?"

Lu Ziqin and Gu Huayu looked at each other. Lu Ziqin pursed his lips and said, "Pass it on."

Ruji didn’t know why Lu Ziqin was laughing, but after hearing Lu Ziqin’s suggestion of passing on the dishes, he happily agreed, “Okay, please wait a minute, I’ll arrange for the dishes to be passed on.”

 Ru Ji retreats.

 After a while, Ruji and Ruji came in carrying a food box. After setting the food, the two of them left out knowingly.

Gu Huayu came out of the bathroom, Lu Ziqin waved and said: "Xiaoyu, come here quickly, you like it."

Gu Huayu walked over and saw that there were palace-baked kidney flowers, five-leaf fish, boiled meat slices, and a plate of fried vegetables on the table.

Gu Huayu swallowed her saliva and said, "The chef's skills are good, and the dishes are well presented and very appetizing."

Lu Ziqin put the fish with the bones removed into Gu Huayu's bowl, "Try the fish, it tastes good."

Gu Huayu picked up the chopsticks, lowered her head and started eating.

“The fish meat is very tender, very flavorful and delicious!” Gu Huayu nodded while eating.

Lu Ziqin lowered his head and continued to pick the fish bones, and then put the fish meat into Gu Huayu's bowl, "If it tastes good, eat more."

Gu Huayu picked up a handful of fish meat and handed it to Lu Ziqin's mouth, "Ah, open your mouth!"

Lu Ziqin took one look at the fish and said, "You eat it."

 “Ah, open your mouth!”

Lu Ziqin looked at Gu Huayu and saw that she insisted, so he opened his mouth to catch the fish.

Seeing Lu Ziqin eating it, Gu Huayu smiled and arched her eyebrows: "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Lu Ziqin nodded fondly, "It's delicious. What Xiaoyu feeds is the best."

Gu Huayu took a piece of kidney flower and sent it over, "Here, take another bite."

Lu Ziqin obediently opened his mouth to catch it, nodded and said, "It's delicious."

Gu Huayu fed Lu Ziqin a few pieces of kidney flower one after another, "Then eat more. Eat whatever you eat to make up for it. It will be good for you."

Lu Ziqin put down his chopsticks, stretched out his hand to pinch Gu Huayu's chin, and asked Gu Huayu to face him, "Little guy, do you dare to say that my waist is not good?"

Gu Huayu looked at Lu Ziqin, shook her head and said, "No, I mean my waist is not good."

Lu Ziqin said with a straight face: "You know a lot at a young age. Huh?"

Gu Huayu replied: "Of course, I am a doctor. Don't you understand this?"

Lu Ziqin stared at Gu Huayu and asked, "What else do you know?"

 Gu Huayu blurted out: "It depends on what you want to know?" After saying that, Gu Huayu suddenly felt that the conversation was wrong and quickly changed the subject: "Eat quickly, the food will not taste good when it is cold."

Lu Ziqin's hand didn't let go and he said, "Should I marry you as soon as possible and then let's discuss whether the waist is good or not?"

Gu Huayu said hurriedly: "Don't be serious, I just made a slip of the tongue and changed the story. This time is over, let's eat."

Lu Ziqin let go of his hand and picked up the fish bones with his chopsticks again.

Gu Huayu said: "Qingyan, you eat too, don't just pick the fish bones for me."

Lv Ziqin put the fish meat into Gu Huayu's bowl, "I like the fish meat prepared for you, so that as long as you eat fish, you will miss me."

Gu Huayu was so moved by his earthy words of love that she said, "Qingyan, you will spoil me."

Lu Ziqin said seriously: "That's right. This is what I want to do in this life. I will do my best to pamper you until you can't live without me."

Just as Gu Huayu was about to pounce, a sound like a shrine sounded at the door.

“Master, stewed pigeon soup can nourish the liver and kidneys, replenish qi and blood, clear away heat and detoxify. It’s the best day to drink it.”

Rumo walked over quickly carrying a bowl of soup, put the soup bowl on the table, swung his hands, grabbed his ears and jumped, "Oh, it's too hot."

Gu Huayu stood up and asked, "Let me see if you're burned?"

Ruji came in and pulled Ruji out, "It's okay, it's okay. Master, use it slowly, master, use it slowly. Just show him the little one."

After Ruji and Ruji stepped back, the previous ambiguous atmosphere also dissipated. Lu Ziqin gave Gu Huayu a bowl of soup to cool down.

The two of them finished their meal quietly and sat aside to drink tea while Ruji brought someone in to clean up.

Gu Huayu thought about going to Pan Yuan to listen to the opera tomorrow. She raised her head and said to Lu Ziqin: "Qingyan, I will go to Pan Yuan to listen to the opera tomorrow."

Lu Ziqin paused, looked up at Gu Huayu, and asked: "Going to Pan Yuan to listen to the opera? Do you like to listen to the opera? When did you book the tickets for Pan Yuan? With whom? Miss Shi San?"

Gu Huayu nodded and told the story of King Qi's invitation from beginning to end.

After hearing this, Lu Ziqin's expression suddenly changed and he asked, "Xiaoyu, if I don't want you to go, will you care about my feelings and not go?"

"However, I sent someone to the Prince Qi's Mansion to reply, saying that he would arrive on time tomorrow and that he had already promised to others."

There was no expression on Lu Ziqin's face, and he said calmly: "So, you have to go, right?"

 Gu Huayu nodded mechanically and explained: "I should keep my promise when I promise something to others, right?"

Lu Ziqin nodded, lowered his head and drank all the tea in the cup. Then he said to Gu Huayu, "It's getting late. I'll have someone take you back."
