Chapter 87: Chapter 87
"Are you afraid that King Halberd and Su Muxue will die on the northern front?" Gu Lanxuan asked, and Su Yue glanced over, thoughtfully.
"What did the young master find out again?" Su Yue knew it wouldn't be possible because the plot hadn't reached that point yet, but since he said it, something might have happened.
"There is a problem with the food and fodder at the rear. If we are unable to reach the front line, not only the two of us, but also the soldiers of Zifeng Kingdom will suffer heavy losses."
"Why are you telling me?" Su Yue didn't know his intention. Gu Lanxuan had no intention of telling her originally. After all, the matter had nothing to do with her.
"I have no control over the affairs of the imperial court. I have sent people to secretly escort the grain and grass." Gu Lanxuan became serious and wiped out the previous dissipation. "Su Xun is the Zifeng God of War. He can die on the front line, but he cannot die in the hands of his own people."
Gu Lanxuan glanced at Su Yue with eyes full of disappointment, and said softly: "It is indeed against the rules to break into a women's boudoir without permission. You don't need to guard against me. I will just not come next time."
Su Yue didn't know how to face him. She knew only a little about him. It was impossible for her to fall in love with him just because he said "I like you". But he couldn't say it anymore and seemed to be a little disappointed.
"Also." Gu Lanxuan stopped and turned his head slightly, "One day you will know that I am serious about you."
After leaving these words, he disappeared into the night, as if he was born to belong to the night.
Compared to Su Yue under this light, the two of them seemed out of place.
Su Yue couldn't say she was sad, but her heart was filled with panic. She took a deep breath and put this strange emotion behind her.
"Food?" Su Yue turned her head slightly and noticed another familiar aura chasing Gu Lanxuan away, with a faint murderous aura.
"That's... Wutong?" Su Yue couldn't help but yelled secretly, and quickly stood up and called Xing Tong.
Xingtong understood instantly and chased the Xingyu guards near Lingxiyuan with a sword and started to fight.
Xinghun and others shouted repeatedly and fled in all directions.
"Xingtong! Why are you so angry at night?"
"You little losers, if you can defeat me, get out of Lingxi Yard!" Xing Tong laughed wildly, and Xing Soul fled in embarrassment.
Su Yue took advantage of the chaos to climb over the wall and leave Prince Ji's Mansion, and she quickly chased in the direction of the two of them.
Sure enough, Wutong and Gu Lanxuan had already faced each other.
"I didn't expect that the dignified young master of the Xuanji Pavilion would do such shameless things as exploring a woman's boudoir at night." Wutong had murderous intent in his eyes. Seeing how he was coming and going freely, this must not be the first time.
Su Yue was not his opponent, and he didn't know if he had suffered a loss. When he thought of this, Wutong became furious.
"The deputy landlord of Tangtang Tingyue Tower, why don't you squat outside the women's boudoir?" Gu Lanxuan pushed back, Wutong's eyes flashed with uncontrollable anger, and his teeth clenched loudly, like an enraged lion.
"Gu Lanxuan!" Wutong held the dagger in his backhand, Gu Lanxuan not willing to be outdone.
It's not like he hasn't heard of the twin evil spirits of Tingyue Tower. The storyteller even described Wutong and Yue Linlang as a heroic couple. He wanted to knock the storyteller's teeth. For a moment, the two of them were at war with each other.
The sycamore tree moved, and the cold light reflected by the dagger flashed, and Gu Lanxuan felt an extremely strong wind coming towards him. Gu Lanxuan quickly raised his hand, and with a clang, blocked it with the short blade he carried.
His offensive attack also made his arms numb.
Gu Lanxuan retreated continuously, Wutong chased after him, the palm mixed with internal force was accompanied by the sharp blade, not giving him a chance to breathe.
Both of them were ready to fight. It looked like they were going to attack each other, but in fact, the moves contained internal power, and they would kill each other.
Gu Lanxuan was surprised that Wutong actually wanted to kill him because of Su Yue. Could it be that the storyteller's talk about the evil couple was not groundless?
When Su Yue arrived, she saw that the two were fighting inextricably. She strode forward and shouted: "Stop!"
Su Yue, who suddenly rushed into the battlefield, instantly became the target of the two men's attacks. Gu Lanxuan withdrew his hand, but Wutong's inner strength had already been unleashed.
Not caring about so much, Gu Lanxuan took Su Yue into his arms and turned around to protect her. He caught Wutong's palm and spurted out a mouthful of blood. Su Yue in his arms was not injured at all.
"Gu Lanxuan!" Su Yue's heart froze. She just wanted to stop the two of them, but she didn't expect that he would risk his life to protect each other.
Seeing that Su Yue was not hurt, Wutong's heart dropped.
Su Yue struggled to leave his arms, grabbed his hand and felt his pulse. Gu Lanxuan looked at her worried face in a daze, and felt satisfied in her heart.
After confirming that he was fine, Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and then started to accuse: "Why are you two so angry? Why are you so ruthless? What's the hatred?"
"No, Wutong was jealous when he saw us having a private meeting at night." Gu Lanxuan said aggrievedly. When Wutong saw Su Yue caring about him so much, an unknown fire ignited in his heart.
"How could Wutong be jealous?" Su Yue rolled her eyes speechlessly, then looked at Wutong to explain, "Don't get me wrong, we are talking about business."
"What serious business requires a man and a woman to live together in the same room?" Wutong's tone made Gu Lanxuan jealous.
Su Yue didn't know how to explain it for a moment. Gu Lanxuan took a step forward and stood side by side with Su Yue: "What we are discussing are state secrets. Naturally, we must avoid having ears between walls, and we can only talk in the middle of the night~"
This is true, but Su Yue always felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was very wrong: "Stop talking, or I won't care if Wutong beats you next time."
"Am I afraid of him? If you hadn't come, he would have been knocked down by me a long time ago." Gu Lanxuan rubbed Su Yue's head with a hint of intimacy, which made Wutong furious.
"Yue'er, come here." Wutong's tone was commanding. Su Yue didn't know why he was so angry, but she walked to his side obediently.
Wutong looked at Gu Lanxuan coldly, his face full of displeasure: "Stay away from this kind of person."
Gu Lanxuan was already unhappy that Su Yue listened to him so much, but Wutong actually said that he was 'this kind of person' in a disgusting tone.
"What kind of person? Tell me clearly!" Gu Lanxuan got angry again. Su Yue saw that the two of them were in such a posture that they obviously had a disagreement and wanted to fight, so she quickly stopped them.
"Who doesn't know that Xuanji Pavilion is a famous den for prodigal sons? This must not be the first time he visited your boudoir at night. He bullied you, how could I turn a blind eye?"
Gu Lanxuan was speechless. Besides Hua Haitang, who else in Xuanji Pavilion was defined as a prodigal? Just as he was about to refute, Su Yue's words about brother made him confused.
"Brother, if we really talk about big things, you believe me." Su Yue also swore, "If he bullies me, I will kill him on the spot."
"Brother?" Gu Lanxuan was confused. He thought Wutong was a love rival.
Wutong said angrily: "Do you have any opinions?"
"Brother?"
