Chapter 383 Lively welcome
Because of the sudden heavy snowfall, Ruan Youqing and his party arrived at Gucheng five days later.
Gu City is located in the northernmost part of Ningguo, and it is the largest city in Ningguo. The word Gucheng on the majestic gate tower was written by the emperor himself when he was 20 years old, copied and engraved on the gate tower.
When they arrived in Fengning and the towns ahead, Ruan Youqing and his party did not reveal their identities because of Gu Changan's desire to hide again. But when they arrived at Gucheng, the border city, if they wanted to leave the customs and go to Canglong Kingdom smoothly, they had to reveal their identities in order to leave the city quickly and smoothly.
So, as soon as Ruan Youqing and his party entered the city, someone rushed over to meet them after receiving the news.
It’s just that there are three batches of people who came out to greet them in the freezing weather…
There are officials represented by the governor of Gucheng.
There are also a man and a woman with outstanding looks, outstanding temperament, and outstanding clothes.
Also shivering from the cold... There are also three well-known wealthy businessmen in Gucheng.
Seeing three completely different types of people standing together and looking towards him, Ruan Youqing subconsciously turned his head to look at Gu Changan.
Gu Changan also frowned in a daze.
Obviously, these people did not know that each other came for the same purpose.
Until Ruan Youqing and the others appeared.
Qiqi's steps stopped suddenly, and the atmosphere began to become a little strange.
The governor of Gucheng has his own ability to get to where he is today. He just got the news that the chief minister is here in person, so he will naturally bring several important officials from the city to greet him.
As a result, when he first came downstairs to the city gate, he ran into those rich businessmen in the city who were grumpy and he couldn't easily mess with them. There are even people waiting here in the mysterious Xifeng Building.
Before he could respond, the person he was waiting for came.
It’s just that the people he was waiting for seemed to be the same as the other two groups of people... this makes people can’t help but think about it...
Gu Changan, the head assistant who became more and more mysterious in Gucheng Governor's heart, had already adjusted his state, and glanced at the wealthy businessmen lukewarmly.
Seeing this, one of the good-looking middle-aged men hurriedly put their hands in front of their mouths and coughed heavily, then cupped their hands at Gu Chang'an in a serious manner and said, "The villain Wang Fuqiang heard that Mr. Shoufu is going to visit us Gu Chang'an in person." Cheng, because the villain has always admired you as an adult, so I came to welcome you today. I hope that Lord Shoufu will not blame us for making our own decisions."
Although the governor of Gucheng would not believe such a reason, he still had a smile on his face.
Although he doesn't know how Mr. Shoufu has any relationship with the rich merchants in Gucheng, it's better for him not to delve into this situation.
After thinking about this, he also took a step forward and saluted Gu Changan, and then introduced several officials around him to Gu Changan one by one.
Gu Changan just nodded lightly, and then looked at the two outstanding looks with interest in his eyes.
If he guessed correctly, these two...should be the unmasked subordinates of his little fox.
Because before coming here, Ruan Youqing had found the opportunity to tell Gu Changan about the flower houses he opened in several border towns. As for the fact that his wife has more than one flower house under his command, Gu Chang'an only accepted it after being stunned for a moment.
When she was walking in and out of the Zhaixing Building with ease, he should have thought of it...
It's just that now is not a good time to get acquainted... Gu Changan's acquaintance with a wealthy businessman is relatively easy to confuse, but Ruan Youqing's acquaintance with the famous Xifeng Building in Gucheng...
"We heard that Gucheng is going to come to noble people today, so we thought of coming here to see the excitement." The gentle man in a snow-white robe opened his mouth with a smile. Liao leaned forward and continued: "I don't know that the status of a nobleman is so precious, we are the ones who are abrupt. With such a status as a nobleman, he should not have the same knowledge as people like us, so Yue Liang left first."
After the words fell, he actually took someone away.
The governor of Gucheng looked at the wealthy businessmen in blank dismay, but he didn't dare to speculate. One side wants to keep his black hat, and the other side wants to keep his position in the West Building.
After entertaining Ruan Youqing and his party at the largest inn in Gucheng, those wealthy businessmen left with some "reluctance".
After Gucheng Inspector who treated them politely also left, Ruan Youqing and Gu Changan returned to the room and laughed helplessly.
"Master Gu, those wealthy merchants... are from the West Building?" Ruan Youqing poured a cup of hot tea for Gu Changan with a smile, and then poured another cup for herself.
Gu Changan tapped the cup lightly with his knuckles, and replied slowly: "I sent them a message saying that I would come here soon, and they were the first ones to join the West Building, because they have unique vision. I have been here to meet them before, and they know my identity. But I didn’t expect that today... I would bump into the governor of Gucheng... It’s my fault that I didn’t arrange it in advance. But you Qing... you side…"
Ruan Youqing, who had a cup of hot tea, narrowed her eyes comfortably, and said leisurely: "It must be that Yueling and the others told them in advance, thinking of giving me a surprise. Who knows... Mr. Gu, you didn't follow the previous routine. Gucheng then revealed his identity, and the provoking Lord Inspector came out to greet him in person. But...if you really say everything, it seems...it's no big deal."
At this time, Gu Changan got up and moved to the position beside Ruan Youqing, wrapped a strand of her hair between her fingers very naturally, and said unhurriedly: "Yeah, it's not like losing your head when these things are discovered. His Majesty trusts us so much, it is impossible to doubt our loyalty to him because of this. Also, the person you despise has been locked up, and there is no chance of turning over. When we return to Beijing this time, the Majesty, he should He will be convicted and sentenced. So... my little fox... you don't have to worry about anything. Your strength... will not become a double-edged sword, it will only make you stronger and stronger, and it will also make your heart The filthy people are becoming more and more afraid of you."
Following Gu Changan's increasingly gentle movements and tone, Ruan Youqing
When he looked at Gu Changan again, his nose suddenly became sore and he wanted to cry.
The truth is, she did cry without warning.
It seems that all the pretense has found a catharsis point, and someone told her that she doesn't have to pretend to be strong anymore.
She will no longer be targeted by shameless people with ulterior motives like Li Yi, and will no longer be drained of all her value by him.
Those who stay with her now are all people who can shine with her.
While watching the water mist in Ruan Youqing's eyes slip down one by one into pearl-sized teardrops, Gu Changan felt his heart be pulled in an instant.
While hugging the lovely and pitiful person in his arms, Gu Changan said in a daze, "Why...why did you cry all of a sudden...Did I say something wrong..."
After all, it's not the roundworm in Ruan Youqing's stomach, so Gu Chang'an is naturally a little confused about her sudden uncontrollable crying.
But even though he couldn't empathize with him, his love for Ruan Youqing became stronger and stronger.
From the first time he saw his little fox, he felt that she was very different. Obviously the most carefree age, but when she looked carefully at the past, her eyes seemed to have gone through vicissitudes.
Until he had such a dream, the Li Yi in the dream was despicable and shameless and did everything to hurt Ruan Youqing.
He has been wary of Li Yi ever since.
And now...
An absurd idea suddenly popped up in Gu Changan's heart.
Maybe... that dream he had long ago wasn't foretelling the future... but... showing him what happened in the past...
At the same time, Gu Changan also remembered the amazing stories his grandmother told him when he was very young.
There may always be some overlap between the future and the past.
