Chapter 16
Chapter 16
On the first day of November, the almanac shows: the marriage is progressing and the birth of precious children, the gold and silver boxes are full, the official fortune is auspicious, and the men and women have a long life and a healthy life. In short, it is a good day for everything.
Gu Zizhan reported to Dali Temple early in the morning.
The gate of Dali Temple is open, and the portrait of Xiezhi on the screen wall facing the outside is lifelike, and the look of a mouthful of fangs staring directly makes people feel cold all over.
Gu Zizhan stood still at the door, and saw two carriages approaching in the distance. In order to fight for the first place, the two carriages crowded each other, almost colliding with each other.
Seeing this, Gu Zizhan knew that Fu You and Wang Shuli must have arrived.
In an instant, my head hurt again.But thinking that he and he were both classmates, and they were assigned to Dali Temple in the same batch, originally they wanted to meet the Minister of Dali Temple together.In addition, Fu You and her have special identities nowadays, so Gu Zizhan had no choice but to stop and wait for the two at the door with a serious face.
Gu Zizhan thought in his heart, hoping that with such a dignified and upright attitude, he could calm down the two idiots who didn't like each other.
As a result, Fu You's first words when he saw her were: "Old Gu, I've been watching from afar, why do you look more and more like that Xiezhi?"
Gu Zizhan: "..."
Wang Shuli, why haven't you killed this retarded bastard?
So what about his special status, he still deserves a beating so much that one can't help but want to beat his dog's head off with his hands.
And why does Fu You have a special status now?This started from the day I met Chu Lan.
**********
That day, after talking with Gu Zizhan, Emperor Tianshun issued an order to transfer her to Dali Temple.Because of this, King Yu was very dissatisfied with her, thinking that what she refused was not in place, and he didn't treat her very well in the mansion.
In this regard, Gu Zizhan's idea of leaving Prince Yu's Mansion became more urgent.
She vaguely thought of a way to make money.So when I asked Chulan to meet each other the next day, in addition to telling her that I was going to work in Dali Temple, I also wanted to tell her about the way to make money and let her check it out.
And Fu Youben had an appointment with a few cronies at Taotielou for a drink, and when he saw Gu Zizhan, he wanted to drag her away too.
Now, Fu You will not leave.
Gu Zizhan had a headache, so he gave Duan Yong a wink in desperation.
She wanted Duan Yong to entangle Fu You with words, but she saw Duan Yong give her a clear look, then quietly walked behind Fu You, and then hugged Fu You by the waist.
Fu You was about to cry out in shock, but Duan Yong covered his mouth, hugged him in a circle, turned his back to Gu Zizhan, and said loudly, "Master! I'm holding you back, run!"
Gu Zizhan was shocked.
Never expected that she and Duan Yong did not have a tacit understanding as always.
Gu Zizhan cast a sympathetic look at Fu You who was being hugged by Princess Duan Yong, held back a smile and said sorry, then told Duan Yong not to hurt Fu You, and ran away in a hurry.
Rushing into the box door, Gu Zizhan turned around and closed the door tightly, panting heavily.
Chu Lan has arrived first.
Seeing Wei just now, Gu Zizhan entered the door, and had already given an overview of what happened outside to Chu Lan. Seeing Gu Zizhan in such a distressed state, Jian Wei first laughed out loud.
Gu Zizhan looked embarrassed and forced a polite smile.
Chu Lan whispered a few words together, then saw Wei Qi chirping away, and when passing by Gu Zizhan, she even rolled her eyes at her.
Gu Zizhan sat down opposite Chu Lan, took the tea cup she handed over, and drank it clean in one gulp.Putting down the teacup, blinking, "Alan, I have something to say to you."
Chu Lan bent her lips and smiled slightly, "No rush, take your time." Passing the handkerchief over, she complained softly, "Why is such a big man so reckless?"
Gu Zizhan only felt his face turn red.She was already completely bent, but now she has a heart for Chu Lan, and she is most afraid of this kind of unintentional teasing.After he told about his transfer to Dali Temple, Gu Zizhan also told about the business he planned to do.After speaking, he stared at Chu Lan nervously.
She was very afraid that Chu Lan, like many scholars in this era, felt that doing business was not the right way, and looked down on those yellow and white things.
But Chu Lan frowned and thought for a while, then her eyes lit up, and she said seriously: "This is a good idea, Zizhan's vision is really good." Then he patted her on the head and added, "This brain is really good. Easy to use!"
Gu Zizhan blushed even more. This idea of making money was actually moved by her from the modern society, but her heart still floated with joy because of Chu Lan's words.
Before she traveled here, things like blind boxes were popular in modern society.Gu Zizhan is not immune either, just like several of her bad friends, she is addicted to it and cannot extricate herself.If it wasn't for her sudden crossing, she would have planned to stock up another batch on Double 11.
She thought that the way to make money was similar to smoking blind boxes, but considering that the preferences of the ancients might be different from those of modern people, she made improvements.This era is far from that of modern society. There are various technologies that allow people to see various collections of famous calligraphy and paintings and exquisite antiques without leaving home. For the manipulation and appreciation of these things, even the upper class People in the middle may not all have the opportunity to see it.
But as long as they are scholars, they are full of curiosity about these famous treasures of past dynasties, and their pursuit is similar to that of later generations.Therefore, Gu Zizhan decided to scale these things down, and then divide them into different series and put them into bags. Those who are lucky enough to get the whole set can see the whole picture.
For famous calligraphy and paintings, Gu Zizhan plans to split the imitations into eight parts, put them in different brocade bags, and place them randomly; and those handed down treasures are also divided into series according to categories after being reduced and imitated, all of which are randomly selected by people. .Make a change, "blind box" becomes "blind bag".
Everyone has different preferences and naturally wants to pick different things.Besides, as long as something is done well, and you get the first one, you will think about the second one.
Chu Lan also felt that Gu Zizhan's idea was excellent, novel and unconventional.
Still a little puzzled, Chu Lan said: "But you are so anxious to make money, but what is the use? If there is any difficulty, I can help you."
Gu Zizhan blushed again, and after a long time, said in a low voice: "It's not a problem that I always rely on Prince Yu's Mansion, besides, no, I want to earn more dowry for you..."
Chu Lan, a decent person, also blushed for some reason.
Forcibly get back to the point.The previous charming atmosphere between the two dissipated, and gradually returned to nature.
Right now there is one key left, that is, where to find people who are good at copying and imitating.
Gu Zizhan was also a little worried about this, and couldn't help but sigh in front of Chu Lan.
Gu Che has been the eldest son for many years, and has some savings in money. He is also very good at the six arts of a gentleman, but it is still very difficult to copy them exactly the same.
When this idea first popped up, the first thing she thought of was Fu You and Wang Shuli.Fu You has a wide range of knowledge and sharp eyesight, and can monitor the similarity of these imitations, and there is a person who is good at copying in Wang Shuli's mansion, so he can borrow it.
It's just that her relationship with Wang Shuli is mediocre, and that kid is at odds with Fu You and is very petty.
At this point, Chu Lan interrupted her with a smile.
"Why go far away? There is an expert in front of you. As long as you can please her, she will naturally help you achieve success." After finishing speaking, the corners of her mouth raised and she smiled lightly.
Gu Zizhan didn't expect Chu Lan to have such a hidden skill, and the unseen intimacy in her words made her heart burn.I was a little surprised at the moment, my eyebrows just raised, and then quickly stretched out.Can't help but think proudly, the person she likes, no matter how good he is, can't be too much.
I couldn't help but stepped forward to hold Chu Lan's hand, with a bit of a childlike delicacy.
"Is it possible to make a promise with your body?"
After all, he realized that he was a bit meng lang, and looked at Chu Lan nervously.
Chu Lan didn't feel offended, but felt hot inside.With a calm face, he couldn't bear to break away from her hand.
After thinking about it, he replied solemnly: "No, in this case, I am at a loss."
Gu Zizhan was stunned, his brows and eyes instantly turned bitter.
Chu Lan was amused by her, so she suppressed a smile and explained: "Gu Shizi is really calculating. He said earlier that he would earn me dowry money, but now he thinks of nothing." A bit seductive but not aware of it.
Gu Zizhan was thick-skinned, and hit the snake with a stick, "I don't take any money I earn, can I give it all to Alan?"
Chu Lan rolled her eyes at her, pretended to be angry and said, "You really regarded me as a white wolf."
Gu Zizhan was very nervous, he tried to calm down, and there was affection in his eyes that he didn't realize, "Then, would Ah Lan fall into my trap?"
eye contact.In an instant, Chu Lan was almost pulled into her eyes.
In Gu Zizhan's eyes, she seemed to see the sky full of stars, the surging mountains and rivers, and among all the brilliance, she was the only one.
People who don't know Chunfeng any more should understand at this time that the person in front of him has a different feeling for him.
For a moment, Chu Lan was full of thoughts.
A rare fear arose in her heart, and she was a little flustered, afraid of hurting this person.
Gu Zizhan was completely different to Chu Lan.Even though they didn't get along much, every bit of it flowed into her heart, bringing her a sense of relief and comfort that she had never had before.
Gu Zizhan once said that Chu Lan is the person she trusts the most. In fact, Chu Lan has trust in her unconsciously.It's just that Chu Lan only thought that it was a meeting of confidants, but she never thought that someone would be disturbed by it.
But really never thought of it?
Maybe it's like the red ear tips hidden behind the temples at this time, it has already existed, but I don't know it yet.
Just as she hadn't noticed yet—she never resisted or puzzled this shocking emotion, she just admitted it so naturally.
Lowering her head slightly, Chu Lan didn't dare to look into Gu Zizhan's eyes.
But Gu Zizhan was still waiting for her answer.
For a long time, until the light in Gu Zizhan's eyes gradually dissipated, Chu Lan didn't say a word.
Gu Zizhan only felt that his heart and eyes were sore.
Blinking his eyes, Gu Zizhan lowered his head, coughed lightly, and said with a deliberate smile: "I thought you wanted me not to forget the agreement with you outside the Imperial Prison that day, and you said that you were willing to marry me, or pretend to be married. I didn't expect that I would be wrong, alas, I'm so sorry—"
"I agree." Before Gu Zizhan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chu Lan.
Surprised, Gu Zizhan thought he was hallucinating.
Seeing her standing there in a daze, Chu Lan had no choice but to take a step forward, her red lips parted slightly, and she repeated, "I said, I agree to marry you, and I will definitely marry you." Her voice was firm, as if the cloudy sky suddenly cleared up .
With a bang, the door was suddenly pushed open.
The two were still immersed in their own thoughts, this sudden change broke the stagnant atmosphere in the room.
Both turned their heads, and saw Fu You who appeared outside the door stunned, and Duan Yong who was also stunned behind him.
Obviously, the two of them also heard what Chu Lan said.
Fu You stood there in a daze, pointing at them tremblingly.
It was too late and then soon, Duan Yong behind him woke up violently, covered Fu You's mouth, and then wanted to hug him away again.
The moment Fu You flew into the air, his entire face became aggrieved.
**********
After the two let Fu You in, the door was closed again, and the three looked at each other in blank dismay.
Fu You angrily squeezed between Gu Zizhan and Chu Lan, and sat down heavily on the stool.With a snort, he rolled his eyes hard at Gu Zizhan.
Gu Zizhan hadn't finished digesting her own emotions yet. After being disturbed by Fu You, her heart felt like a ball of cotton wool, and she couldn't get up or down.He looked at the angry Fu You, and then at Chu Lan.
Chu Lan remained expressionless, leaning against the window, staying out of the matter.
However, Fu You didn't pay attention to those things, and only thought that Gu Zizhan was a bad guy who wanted to trick his little cousin away.With a dark face, Fu You slapped the table with his big hands and asked Gu Zizhan, "Why don't you explain?"
Gu Zizhan sighed, "Oh, this is between us..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Fu You jumped up angrily, "Fuck your shit! Marriage is a matter of two surnames! What is the matter between you two? Tell me clearly." , do you intend to deceive our family Youer?"
Gu Zizhan was wronged, "I didn't, where did you think!"
Fu You was furious, and shouted: "Don't argue with me! If you want to treat You'er sincerely, you should go back seriously and ask your father to go to the Chu Mansion to propose marriage, instead of meeting alone here!" Here, he looked at Chu Lan with hatred for being weak, but her eyes turned cold, and he couldn't say anything if he wanted to teach him a lesson, so he could only snort and sulk himself.
Gu Zizhan was helpless, she knew that the whole Fu family valued Chu Lan very much, Fu You and Chu Lan were similar in age, and they were very close.I had no choice but to put my own thoughts aside first, and explained to him in a soft voice: "Brother Fu, I, Gu Zizhan, is a character. You should know after spending so many days together. I treat Ah Lan sincerely, and she is my treasure." Don’t worry about her. She agrees to marry me, it’s a blessing I have cultivated in three lifetimes, and I will marry her as my only wife in this life.” After finishing speaking, I couldn’t help but look at Chu Lan.
Chu Lan happened to be looking at her too.
The four eyes meet each other, each with their own thoughts.
Fu You was relieved a little after getting her assurance, but still couldn't help being a little angry, frowned and stared at Gu Zizhan for a long time, then suddenly muttered, "Gu Che, I treat you as a brother, I never expected , you actually want to be my brother-in-law." He said sadly and angrily, "I still have to call you brother-in-law!"
Gu Zizhan almost spit out his saliva.
Chu Lan couldn't bear it anymore, picked up Fu You's back collar, and was about to throw him out.
Fu You begged for mercy in a hurry, and seized the time to threaten Gu Zizhan, "I warn you, Gu Che! If you dare to let my cousin You'er down, the whole Fu family will not let you go!"
Chu Lan was amused and annoyed by him, she put the man down at the door, patted his lapel, and finally said, "Okay, don't worry, I know it well."
Fu You felt aggrieved, "Really?"
Chu Lan nodded: "Really."
Fu You rolled his eyes and pulled Gu Zizhan up, "Then you are not allowed to be alone in the same room! Brother Gu, I will take him away first. If you don't mention marriage for a day, you won't let her come to see you alone!"
Chu Lan got a headache from being annoyed by him, and Gu Zizhan couldn't pull Fu You anymore. Today's matter was almost said, and the two simply separated.
Therefore, in Fu You's place, Gu Zizhan became a key surveillance object during the investigation period.
