Chapter 259 Submit a letter to the princess

Author: Zhong Lin

Everyone in the court and the palace was in danger because of this incident. When Lin Yuemei and Prince An went to the imperial study, some people in the palace saw that the cheeks of the usually powerful princess were red and she seemed to be slapped. They quietly

Looking at Prince An, whose face was so gloomy that he could drip ink, and seeing scratches on his neck, he didn't dare to think too deeply for a moment.

I don’t know whether the lawless Princess Xingyue hit Prince An, or whether Prince An hurt himself after teaching his daughter.

The atmosphere in the palace was not right, and Su Xiaomu was waiting in the inn with her heart hanging high.

"Didn't Zhou Lin say he wanted to wait with me? Why did he go out to inquire at such a critical time, leaving me alone to be worried, right?"

Su Xiaomu twirled her fingers uneasily. Although she felt confident at the moment, she was still afraid of the variables.

After all, they were officials protecting each other, and she was just a particle floating in the air.

But neither Lin Yu nor Shangguan Rui seem to be ridiculous people, so they shouldn't disappoint her, right?

At the feet of the Emperor, everything must be something that the people can look forward to, right?

Su Xiaomu comforted herself while standing at the door of the inn and looking forward to it.

She herself thought it was funny. If she hadn't been wearing the clothes of a waiter, she would have been mistaken for a waiter.

While Su Xiaomu was worried, she would occasionally get confused, but in fact she was always nervous.

"Ms. Su!"

I don't know if it was her imagination, but Su Xiaomu seemed to see Zhou Lin waving to her again, with an unconcealable smile on his face.

"Jingcheng is released!"

Zhou Lin strode up to Su Xiaomu. Although it was winter, his forehead was still hot and a thin layer of sweat broke out: "It's someone from the Shouxing Mansion who came to deliver a message, saying that we should go to the government office to pick him up now."

"Why did the Chief Assistant send you a message?"

Before Su Xiaomu had time to rejoice, she frowned in confusion: "Didn't you agree to tell me here?"

Are you waiting in vain for the past two days that she has been here?

"I met the grandma at the chief minister's residence on the way. She told me, oh, these are not important. What's important is to rush to save Jingcheng. I haven't seen him in almost half a month, and I don't know that he has lost weight.

without."

Zhou Lin wanted to see Gu Jingcheng quickly, so he drove Su Xiaomu forward.

Seeing his impatient look, Su Xiaomu sneered inwardly.

Oh, he was even more anxious than she was. He thought they were a couple and she didn't have much status.

Although speechless, Su Xiaomu folded a handful of grapefruit leaves on the roadside.

When he came out of prison, Yue Ziye was unlucky. She didn't want to waste so much effort to get him out, and he would be unlucky in the end.

Su Xiaomu believed in metaphysics more or less.

However, after not seeing Gu Jingcheng for a long time, Su Xiaomu thought about many times when she would see him again, but she never thought that they would look at each other in such a scene.

As for Gu Jingcheng, his pupils shrank sharply when he saw Su Xiaomu. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold of the official residence, he strode forward and grabbed Zhou Lin's clothes tightly, his face turning blue: "I'm not telling you this.

,Aren't you allowed to tell her this? Why don't you listen to me."

Gu Jingcheng actually has his own solution to this crisis.

He is a weak scholar with no physical strength, but he has a sound mind and does not need help from others whenever he encounters a problem.

What's more, he had his own considerations when he stepped into the tiger's mouth this time.

At this moment, whenever Gu Jingcheng thinks that Zhou Lin not only ruined his plan, but also dragged Su Xiaomu into it, he becomes so angry that he can't control his temper.

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

Su Xiaomu looked at Gu Jingcheng and Zhou Lin, each of whom was in a worse mood than the other. She held her forehead helplessly.

Zhou Lin was so happy when he came just now. He didn't expect that Gu Jingcheng would not appreciate his kindness, right?

But it makes sense. Gu Jingcheng has lost a little weight in the many days he has been here, and his clothes have become a little dirty. He is no different from the one in Su Xiaomu's memory.

She had some idea of ​​him, thinking that since Gu Jingcheng was a scholar, life wouldn't be too difficult in this officialdom. After all, Lin Yuemei liked him and asked him to be her husband. How could she really hurt him?

And Gu Jingcheng is not stupid. He used to play tricks on her often, and the people close to him were like this, let alone the arresting jailers in the government.

I'm afraid there are few people in this world who can match Gu Jingcheng's schemes.

It's really not that Su Xiaomu belittled him, it was mainly that he suffered a lot from him, and besides, he would go to the court to stir up trouble in the future.

"Then go back."

When Gu Jingcheng heard Su Xiaomu's words, although his expression was still not very good, he didn't say anything about Zhou Lin anymore.

The three of them returned to the inn together. Su Xiaomu had already bought a new change of clothes for Gu Jingcheng. After giving them to him, she ordered a table full of dishes and waited for them.

inside the room.

Zhou Lin waited across the screen for Gu Jingcheng to take a bath.

His face was gloomy, and his heart was full of frustration and grievance.

"I have been running around for your affairs these days. You know that you are afraid that Su Xiaomu will worry about you and show shame in front of her, so why haven't you considered it for me? Do you know how many looks I have received these days?"

The more Zhou Lin thought about it, the angrier he became. He clenched his fists and puffed up his cheeks: "How could I usually ask for help in such a humble manner? It was just for your safety, but now it seems that I did it with good intentions, and all my efforts were in vain!

"

Gu Jingcheng didn't have time to say a word behind the screen because he was blamed by Zhou Lin.

His face didn't look very good either, and he hesitated to speak as he stared at Zhou Lin's hazy look.

"I don't……"

"You obviously are!"

Zhou Lin couldn't listen to his explanation. In his eyes, all Gu Jingcheng could think of was Su Xiaomu. He asked her many questions along the way, but never asked him how he was doing recently.

Zhou Lin didn't necessarily want to compare with the young couple, he just felt that the two of them were the best brothers, but he rarely felt how well Gu Jingcheng treated him. Compared with Gu Jingcheng's daughter-in-law, who had only been married for a year, he,

Brothers seem to have become dispensable.

"I'm also very grateful to you for saving me, but my affairs have nothing to do with her in the first place. Have you forgotten that I came to the capital after we had a fight?"

Gu Jingcheng didn't want to involve Su Xiaomu in the disputes in the capital. He wanted to wait until he was ready before bringing her to the capital.

At that time, whether Su Xiaomu wants to do business or do something else, Gu Jingcheng can be the tree that protects her.

But now there are too many variables, and even he, the chess player, cannot control the direction of the chess pieces.

"But she is always your wife, what good is it to her to hide this matter from her?" Zhou Lin didn't understand Gu Jingcheng's thoughts, his face was full of doubts and resentment, "Fucheng is not far from the capital.

, do you want her to know your tragic story from others, or do you think you are so powerful that you can stir up trouble in the capital in just a few days?"
