Gradually, the rain became heavier, from drizzle to drizzle, and then drizzle.
The spring rain continued for a whole night, and it was still falling until the next morning.
It was raining all the time in the next few days, and the weather was gloomy.
Chu You realized for the first time what it means to ask for help is without a way.
The empress dowager was under house arrest, and those aristocratic families did not help him, and even his cousin Yuan Zhe was unwilling to come forward. Chu You was almost unable to move forward.
In the past, Chu You knew that the aristocratic family was a double-edged sword that could be his help. If he could not suppress it, he would let the aristocratic family be above the king and be tyrannical and tyrannical.
It is precisely because of this that Emperor Taizu weakened and suppressed the aristocratic families.
Chu You has always been confident that he can control the aristocratic family and let the aristocratic family be used by him.
But now, he deeply realized the terror of this double-edged sword.
For the aristocratic families, he was just a clay-sculpted Bodhisattva with the blood of the aristocratic families. They would only offer him high above the ground, rather than treat him as a true monarch.
Now Chu You is like an eagle with wings broken, and can only try to find out about Gu Yun's news.
However, in the imperial prison of the Northern Fushi Department, Chu You tried all kinds of methods, but still found nothing and did not get any news about Gu Yunshi.
At the end of his life, Chu You remembered Fang Mingfeng's words for some time: "If you don't do it properly, send someone to tell me, I have a way."
This time, he hesitated.
"Dong!"
Chu You suddenly punched the window sill heavily. His eyes, which were usually dark, were a little cloudy at the moment. His once firm belief seemed to be torn to pieces in just a few days.
The raindrops outside floated in from the window, and the water droplets dripped on the table, vaguely reflecting the girl's bright face.
Lao!
Chu You reached out to grab it, but he caught a ball of air.
“Hu—Hu—”
The humid air sucked into his lungs seemed to be blocked there, making him feel uneasy.
The next moment, the personal eunuch walked in carefully, swallowed his saliva, and asked inquiring instructions: "Prince, do you still go to Tianheyuan tomorrow?"
Tomorrow is National Day, and the whole country celebrates together. Tomorrow morning, all civil and military officials will go to Tianheyuan, the royal palace in the suburbs of Beijing to celebrate the festival with the emperor.
Chu You, who had been sitting for a long time, opened his eyes suddenly, shot at the eunuch with a gloomy look, and blurted out: "Come on, drag the person out for me and beat me!"
The eunuch was frightened and kneeled down with a "thump".
As soon as the words were finished, the two guards of the royal palace came to hear the sound, clasped their fists and took their lives, and dragged the eunuch out rudely.
The personal eunuch was trembling and hurriedly begging for mercy: "Prince, please spare me!"
"Prince, let me spare my servant."
The eunuch's screams quickly left, and the entire Kang Prince's Mansion was immersed in a depressing and heavy atmosphere, without the festive festive celebration.
But other places in the capital are not the case.
As National Day approaches, the capital is full of joy, with lights and decorations everywhere, as lively as the New Year.
Since the founding of the Dajing Dynasty, Emperor Taizu issued an intention to make the National Day, from the powerful to the common people in the whole country to take a day off. If they don’t take a day off, they will have to pay double their salary. Everyone is eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the festival.
Two big red lanterns were hung at the gate of Gu's mansion like Beppu. Early in the morning, the clan leader and several clan elders were welcomed.
Because Gu Jian's family was imprisoned, the clan's tribe was trembling in the past few days.
The clan leader and several clan elders have been to Gu's mansion several times, but Gu Yuan is not here every time. Finally, Gu Yuan finally returned to the mansion last night. His door came here early in the morning to block Gu Yuan, hoping that Gu Yuan would help find out what the case of Gu Jian's suspected rebellion was going on.
What they were worried about was that if Gu Jian’s house was really suspected of rebellion, it would harm the nine clans, and even the Gu clan would be affected by it.
Gu Yuan responded without saying a word and sent all the tribesmen away with a kind voice.
As for asking or not, no one else knows.
After Gu Yuan sent his tribes away, he quickly took office. Now he has been transferred to Jinwu Guard and his responsibilities are not easy. He can only go back to his house for almost two or three days.
The day before National Day, the mansion was very lively, and the clothes and jewelry ordered by Gu Yunzhen were sent to the mansion continuously.
Gu Yunzhen and Gu Yanfei made the decision, and they also paid an additional half a month's salary to the servants in the mansion and added another spring dress.
This is a reward that has not been received in previous years. For this reason, the servants and servants in the mansion were all grateful. There was no shadow in the mansion because of the arrest of the second house and the imperial prison. They all happily looked forward to the arrival of the National Day earlier.
Gu Yanfei was also looking forward to it.
On National Day, Gu Yanfei had a rare early morning. He got up in high spirits after half of the Mao hour. Under Juan Bi's service, he put on a new green lotus-colored lapel suit and combed a double-haired bun.
She didn't like wearing the burden of gold ornaments and beads, so she only wore the calla lily jade hairpin given by Chu Yi, and two lilac silk flowers were decorated with their temples, which were so vivid that they looked like flowers.
Gu Yanfei thought he had gotten up very early, but he was still one step slower than Gu Yun.
When she came to the outer art gate, Gu Yunzhen had already gotten on the carriage and was waving to her through the window of the carriage with a smile.
"Big sister." Gu Yanfei stepped on the horse stool and planned to get on the carriage. At this moment, a short and fat woman ran towards this side panting and replied in a radiant manner: "Second girl, the eldest prince is coming down from the palace."
The old lady smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits, and she felt a bit proud of joy.
Gu Yanfei didn't know Chu Yi would come, so he was stunned. He looked up and saw a handsome young man wearing a moon-white lapel suit outside the gate, riding a white horse, appearing there, bathing in the bright light of the rising sun, his robe moved slightly by the morning breeze, as handsome as a god.
The young man turned over and got off the horse, crossed the high threshold, and walked towards her slowly.
Gu Yunzhen pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Second sister, go."
Gu Yanfei did not feel embarrassed at all, and trotted towards Chu Yi in light small steps.
"Why are you here?"
A very ordinary question, but it was a coquettish voice that she didn't even noticed.
As she walked towards him with brisk steps, the bangs on her forehead trembled, and the silk-like black hair shone with a golden light in the sun.
Chu Yi looked at her with a smile on his eyebrows, his eyes as bright as obsidian, and more dazzling than the rising sun.
He raised his hand calmly and rubbed her hair top and said naturally: "Of course I'm here to pick you up."
Gu Yanfei smiled sweetly, and his eyes were bent happily into the shape of a crescent moon.
"Then..." She originally planned to ride a carriage with Gu Yunzhen to Tianheyuan, but she changed her mind temporarily, "I'll ride a horse with me?"
"Okay." Chu Yi smiled slightly, "I'll take you to play later."
He said he would ride a horse. After a while, Gu Yanfei rode her sweat-blooded horse from Gu's mansion and walked side by side with Chu Yi, while Gu Yunzhen sat in the carriage behind him.
Their convoy was not eye-catching, and there were no more than twenty Luanyi Guards who were guarding Chu Yi, so they did not attract much attention along the way.
A group of carriages and horses were galloping on the streets of the capital. When they reached the west gate, the carriages and horses on the streets became increasingly dense.
The West City Gate is the only way to go from the capital to Tianheyuan, so the carriages and horses of each mansion pass here. The carriages are gorgeous and elegant, and the horses are tall and agile, attracting the attention of many passers-by.
These carriages and horses gathered outside the West City like rivers entering the sea, meeting with the emperor's ceremonial guards, surrounded the dragon chariot and heading westward, and set out in a mighty way towards Tianheyuan.
This huge convoy ran out of a galloping horse with a storm of momentum.
Among the young masters and girls who are accompanying you today, there are also many noble and military families, and many heroic girls also choose to ride horses, just like Gu Yanfei.
The girls such as Wei Jiaoniang, Lu Qin, Fan Mushuang also chose to ride horses like Gu Yanfei. Everyone was racing horses there without any worries. Who would arrive at Tianheyuan first? But while running, Wei Jiaoniang found that Gu Yanfei was missing.
Not only did Gu Yanfei disappear, but the other one disappeared.
"...are abducted." Wei Jiaoniang muttered softly.
Lu Qin next to him didn't hear it clearly and asked curiously: "What was abducted?"
Wei Jiaoni smiled mysteriously, and when he squeezed the horse's belly, he rode his horse over Lu Qin. Lu Qin became anxious and shouted "You are too cunning", and hurriedly chased after him.
Gu Yanfei, who was abducted, followed Chu Yi and left the large army on the official road and turned into another unmanned path.
This trail is just enough for two horses to go hand in hand, and the two of them ride horses leisurely.
The weather is just right at the end of February. The spring breeze blows on the suburbs and the grass is fragrant. From time to time, you can see birds singing on the branches on the roadside, which is very comfortable.
This is a good weather to go out for a trip.
"We won't go to Tianheyuan?" Gu Yanfei rode a horse while breaking a wild flower from the branches on the side of the road and playing with it casually.
She thought Chu Yi had said he wanted to take her out to play before, but he went to Tianheyuan to play, but he didn't expect that before a cup of tea, he suddenly asked her to follow him to walk the path.
"Go." Chu Yi and her walked in hand and smiled slightly. The beautiful Ruifeng's eyes seemed to have the warmth of spring, which was warm and intoxicating. "I'll take you to a place first."
Compared to Gu Yanfei's leisurely and unrestrained attitude, his horse was so elegant, and the graceful and noble style seemed to be engraved in his bones.
Gu Yanfei likes to look at Chu Yi. No matter what he does... no, even if he does nothing, it looks good.
She also likes to see him laugh, hoping that when he is with her, he can always smile like this, as happy as he is now.
He should also like to see her laugh when he judges others by himself.
"Yeah!" Gu Yanfei smiled brilliantly, and his bright smile couldn't help but rippled from the corners of his lips and eyes.
The two rode their horses all the way west, galloping rapidly on the winding and deserted path.
Gu Yanfei's sweat-blooded BMW was like a bird that was released from a cage, joking with all his heart, running faster and faster...
Chu Yi's white horse is also a good horse that travels thousands of miles a day, and will not fall behind.
To be continued...
