Chapter 253 Is the Red Line Solid?
Gu Xiyan raised her hand and gave him a slap. "What's going on in your head all day long?"
Gu Yi covered his head, aggrieved, and said boldly: "You also pretended to have something you shouldn't have, otherwise how could your mouth be broken?"
Gu Xiyan raised his foot and kicked, and Gu Yi quickly ran out of the tent.
He ran and laughed, "What the master looks like, the subordinate looks like him. Sir, take a good look at your mouth in the foot washing water and see how swollen it is. Oh my, the master is really cruel!"
Gu Xiyan: …………
He looked down at his reflection in the basin.
Gu Yi walked out of the tent and went straight to the tents of several personal soldiers who were not on duty that day.
The few people who were preparing to rest inside became excited instantly when they saw him come in.
"Hey, Brother Yi is going to give us some money?"
Gu Yi sneered, "Stop dreaming! I'm telling you, the general and the Pavilion Master have reconciled. Don't even think about taking the silver out of my pocket anymore."
"Impossible, I just saw Pavilion Master Nangong riding back alone with a gloomy face..."
Everyone echoed and said that they had seen it too.
Gu Yi continued to sneer, "What does that mean? It can only mean that the two masters were arguing."
"But we haven't reconciled yet!"
Gu Yi rolled his eyes and said, "You know nothing. That was just a flirtation between lovers. Pavilion Master Nangong came back first because he was shy."
Gu Yi smiled obscenely, "You don't know, the general's mouth was kissed by the Pavilion Master... the skin is broken."
Everyone had a gossipy look on their faces.
Zhang Ding seemed to have thought of something and said "Huh".
"Hearing what you said, it just occurred to me that when I was delivering bath water to Pavilion Master Nangong, I accidentally glanced at him and found that his mouth was also red and bleeding..."
He stopped talking halfway, thinking that it was extremely disrespectful to stare at the general's wife.
Fortunately, everyone's attention was not here, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Someone was unwilling to see his money go to waste, so he asked Gu Yi, "Since you said the two masters have reconciled, why don't you go to the Pavilion Master's tent to rest tonight?"
Gu Yi blinked, feeling guilty for a moment, and then said confidently: "This... Isn't it because they are afraid that we might eavesdrop? Have you forgotten about the incident between Pavilion Master and Young Master Nan?"
Everyone realized later that it was no wonder that Pavilion Master Nangong had set up his tent so far away from the military camp; this turned out to be the reason.
Someone else said, "I'll trust you this time. If the general and the pavilion master are in love tomorrow, I won't need the three taels of silver."
"Then I don't want it either."
"Me too."
"Me too."
……
Zhang Ding pursed his lips, secretly regretting his decision. If he had known earlier, he would have placed the bet. Maybe he could have won dozens of taels of silver for free by following Gu Yi.
Gu Yi listened to everyone saying this and thought: Even if the two of them are not compatible, I have to bring them together for the sake of these hundred taels of silver.
The next morning, everyone packed up their tents and set off.
Gu Yi deliberately hid the charcoal prepared on Yao Jia's carriage, and told Gu Xiyan that he had placed too much charcoal in Yao Jia's tent yesterday and it was accidentally used up.
Urging Gu Xiyan to take Yao Jia's carriage.
"Sir, please go ahead. The Pavilion Master is afraid of cold weather, and you are hot, so go up and be a heater. If the Pavilion Master really can't stand the cold, you can just hold her in your arms and keep her warm. In this way, the relationship between you two will..."
Gu Xiyan looked at the green figure slowly walking towards the carriage and scolded Gu Yi in a low voice.
"you shut up!"
Gu Yi: …………
I turned around and saw Yao Jia.
Yao Jia just glanced at the two of them, picked up her skirt and got into the car, lifted the heavy curtain, and a warm current blew towards her face.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and sat in the car. The warm atmosphere in the car immediately surrounded her.
He untied his fox fur coat, lifted the carriage curtain and smiled at Gu Yi, "Gu Yi, why did you burn the charcoal fire even more vigorously today?"
Gu Yi: …………
He stretched his head and looked inside the carriage.
The charcoal fire in the incense burner was burning red and emitting hot streams.
what's the situation?
He should have hidden the charcoal fire.
how……
He retracted his neck in embarrassment and made up a story.
"Mr. Nanshan said it's very cold today, I'm afraid you'll be cold..."
"That's very thoughtful of you. Thank you very much."
Gu Yi glanced at Gu Xiyan who turned and walked away, and lowered his head awkwardly, "Master, you are too polite. This is all my job."
Who is so nosy? He wants to ruin the relationship between the young master and the Pavilion Master!
Yao Jia said nothing more, lowered the curtain, and leaned back on the couch.
In the carriage in front, Xiao Fengyi withdrew his gaze, sat upright, and a smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
Nanshan opened his eyes, said "boring", and continued to close his eyes to rest.
Xiao Fengyi drank the refreshing tea handed to him by the servant. He knew that Nanshan was referring to the fact that he secretly asked the servant to put the charcoal fire hidden by Gu Yi back into Yaojia's carriage.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "I am indeed bored. Why don't I go to the carriage in front and discuss Taoism with Pavilion Master Nangong?"
As he spoke, he stood up.
"That's enough!" Nanshan opened his eyes, and his willow-shaped eyes under the mask were cold. "What good will it do you to break up the two of them?"
Xiao Fengyi also had anger in his eyes, "I also want to ask you, those soldiers can see that she doesn't like Gu Xiyan, why do you insist on tying them together? Forget it, I have already obeyed your warning and kept my distance from her, why do you still monitor me like this?"
"I'm not spying on you." Nanshan's face under the mask looked a little uncomfortable.
Xiao Fengyi looked at him suspiciously for a while.
"So, you are creating an opportunity for those two to be alone together?"
Nanshan neither admitted nor denied it.
Xiao Fengyi snorted coldly, "I think you are the most boring one."
He put the teacup back on the table and said to the respectful attendant beside him in a deep voice, "What's going on? Why haven't you set off for so long?"
The attendant got out of the car in a hurry and came back panting a moment later.
"Your Highness, it was General Gu who was punishing his subordinates, which delayed the trip. We have already started preparing to set off."
"He still has some brains."
Xiao Fengyi retracted his gaze and looked at Nanshan, "Why are you trying so hard to bring them together?"
Nanshan picked up the tea of moderate temperature on the table and drank it in one gulp. "I like to match people up with each other."
"You..." Xiao Fengyi felt a tightness in his chest. Why could this person always make him angry so easily? Thinking that he couldn't turn against him at this moment, he took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
“I don’t know if this red line is strong.”
Nanshan put down the teacup, curled his lips and smiled, "Of course it's strong, Your Highness and the granddaughter of Master Qi..."
Seeing him talking about this again, Xiao Fengyi's scalp tightened and he interrupted him hurriedly.
"I know I was wrong, please don't talk about it anymore, sir."
Seeing him like this, Nanshan shut up and returned to his cold and aloof look.
Xiao Fengyi frowned and stared at the man who was resting his eyes beside him.
After these days of inseparable contact, I found that this person's temperament is very similar to the former Fei Yu.
He is taciturn and indifferent, and when he is angry he always gives off an aura of coldness that keeps people away.
However, now that Fei Yu has regained consciousness, that dull temperament is still there, but he is not that unapproachable when he is angry.
The carriage moved forward slowly. Yao Jia rubbed her sleepy eyes, got up, twisted her neck, lifted the curtain and looked outside.
There was heavy snow falling outside.
The snowflakes are falling all over the sky and the earth looks vast.
A cold wind blew, bringing in a few snowflakes. The alternation of cold and heat immediately caused a mist to rise in my eyes.
The charcoal in the incense burner had burned out by half, and Yao Jia called out, "Gu Yi, come in and add some charcoal."
Not long after, a man came in with a small basket of plum blossom charcoal.
Yao Jia saw that the soldier was Zhang Ding who always followed Gu Yi, so she asked, "Why is it you? Where is Gu Yi?"
Zhang Ding used the tongs to add peach blossom charcoal to the incense burner while replying, "My brother is injured and can't move around easily. If the Pavilion Master has something to do these few days, just call me."
