Xie Ningxia thought for a while and then said: "Master Gu is busy with work, so he probably doesn't have time."
"I have time."
Xie Ningxia was shocked when she heard what Gu Li said. Gu Li also realized that she had lost her composure and quickly said, "I haven't had much business recently. Thank you for your concern."
After Gu Li left, Xie Ningxia kept staring at Gu Li's back. Lu Yu saw something was wrong, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just don't want to go with him."
"Do you hate Gu Li so much? There is nothing wrong with Gu Li, but he is not a flatterer, and his personality is the same. When you really get to know him, you will think that he is indeed a rare talent." Lu Yu said there, and Xie Ningxia kept staring. Lu Yu said, "Why are you staring at me? What I said are all facts."
"How do you know him so well?"
"That's natural. Gu Li is the same age as me. I had heard of him when I went to the Imperial College to ask for advice."
"You are actually the same age. I can't believe it. I thought he was much older than you. He is so serious all day long."
Lu Yu heard Xie Ningxia joking, "Speaking of age, Gu Li has indeed reached the age to get married. You should help me choose a suitable girl in Beijing today, and I will marry you."
Xie Ningxia held her face with her hands, "I don't think there's anything to worry about. He has a childhood sweetheart in his family and he will definitely not marry anyone else."
"Childhood sweethearts? Why didn't I know?"
"How do you know? Of course you won't be well-informed if you stay in the palace all day. As an emperor, you should go out more often and observe the people's sentiments."
Lu Yu felt that what Xie Ningxia said was indeed reasonable. You should not just listen to what others say about anything. You should also go out for a walk.
Since returning from the garden that day, Xie Ningxia has not left the palace. Firstly, Lu Yu asked him to prepare things for hunting and he did not have time to leave the palace. Secondly, because he got cold last time he went out of the palace, Lu Yu ordered Xie Ningxia to reduce the number of times she went out. Take good care of your health in the palace.
After several days of hard preparation, the day of hunting came. It took nearly half a day to reach the destination. When Xie Ningxia arrived at the destination, she took a deep breath of fresh air, "The air outside is indeed fresher than the one in the palace." .”
Lu Yu smiled when he saw Xie Ningxia's happiness, "As long as you are happy, this hunting is just to relax you."
"Okay, okay, I like it here very much. It would be great if I could stay here forever."
"impossible."
Hearing Lu Yu pour cold water, Xie Ningxia ignored Lu Yu. At this time, a hare ran out of the woods, "Lu Yu, Lu Yu, look, there is a rabbit there."
When Lu Yu saw the rabbit, he wanted to shoot an arrow, but Xie Ningxia stopped him directly. "What are you doing? I want to catch it and play with it. I don't want to eat it."
When Lu Yu heard that Xie Ningxia wanted to catch him for fun, he just wanted to send his high officials to catch him. Unexpectedly, Xie Ningxia wanted to go there by himself. Lu Yu knew that there were strict officers and soldiers guarding the area, so he let Xie Ningxia go.
Xie Ningxia and Huan'er ran to the woods to catch a rabbit, but they bumped into someone while walking. Xie Ningxia looked up and saw that it was Gu Li, and the rabbit was also caught by Gu Li.
"Master Gu, why are you here?"
Before Gu Li could say anything, Xie Ningxia looked at the rabbit in Gu Li's hand, "Does Mr. Gu also like this rabbit?"
Gu Li didn't say anything, just handed the rabbit in his hand to Xie Ningxia. Seeing that Gu Li gave the rabbit to her, Xie Ningxia took the rabbit and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, Gu Li grabbed her wrist.
Xie Ningxia looked at Gu Li with confusion on her face, "Mr. Gu, this is His Majesty's territory. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to grab my wrist like this?"
Gu Li heard Xie Ningxia say this and silently let go of her hand. Xie Ningxia stopped teasing Gu Li when she saw her like this, "Huan'er, take the rabbit back first and find a cage for it. I'll go back later. "
Seeing that Huan'er had left, Gu Li spoke, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, what's wrong?"
"I mean the bruises on my body. I had bruises on my body when I woke up. I guess I fell down that night."
Xie Ningxia looked at Gu Li like this, "It's okay, that little injury has already healed. Master Gu went to the garden to see Lu Yu that day just to see if I had any injuries."
Seeing that Gu Li didn't speak, Xie Ningxia knew that she had guessed correctly, "So how does Mr. Gu want to repay me? It took all my strength to save you."
Seeing that Gu Li didn't speak, Xie Ningxia simply stopped talking about repaying her, "It was actually Shen Wan who gave you the medicine that night."
Hearing what Xie Ningxia said, Gu Li looked at Xie Ningxia in surprise, "How do you know?"
"I saw Shen Wan coming out of the brothel one day. I guess it was to buy that kind of medicine. Otherwise, why would a weak woman go to a brothel? But I don't understand. They are all women who come to my door. Why doesn't Mr. Gu take advantage of his plan? When the time comes, If you happen to marry a lady, wouldn’t you get the best of both worlds?”
