271 Don't marry, this king promises you a different future
Qin Jiyan went to great lengths to avoid detection and came to see Gu Qiancheng at night. How could it be because of a case? If it was about a case, he could have come to see him in broad daylight without worrying about whether the emperor would know about it...
…
Qin Jiyan came to see Gu Qiancheng late at night because he heard from his subordinates that the old man of the Gu family planned to marry Gu Qiancheng into the Yan family.
Upon hearing the news, Qin Jiyan's first reaction was: No, we can't let Gu Qiancheng marry Yan Qing. Yan Qing is not worthy of Gu Qiancheng at all. Gu Qiancheng must not know Yan Qing's shortcomings.
Therefore, His Highness the King of Qin decided to condescend to pay a visit to the Gu family and tell Gu Qiancheng about Yan Qing's shortcomings, so as not to prevent Gu Qiancheng from marrying a wrong person.
Now that Gu Qiancheng was obviously distracted, Qin Jiyan simply stopped raising the matter and put the paper full of words on the table...
"The Goddess Tower case is not urgent. You don't have to be too stressed." This sentence relieved the embarrassment that Gu Qiancheng couldn't explain for a long time.
"Yeah, yeah." Gu Qiancheng nodded repeatedly, and at the same time secretly warned himself not to be distracted again.
He wanted to continue bringing up the Goddess Tower case, but Qin Jiyan took the lead and said, "By the way, I heard that you are going to get married?"
"Marry someone?" Gu Qiancheng was startled and swallowed what he said: "Who told you that?" Why didn't she know?
"There are rumors outside that Mr. Gu is planning to marry you off before the end of the year because of your love. It is even said that for this reason, you will not even care about your seriously ill parents." Qin Jiyan stepped back slightly and pulled away slightly.
The distance between him and Gu Qiancheng is just...
The shadows reflected on the window were still overlapping each other. A faint smile appeared in Qin Jiyan's eyes. It was a pity that Gu Qiancheng didn't notice...
Gu Qiancheng's face changed slightly, and he was slightly unhappy: "Can you find out who sent the message?"
"Gu family." If the news hadn't come from the Gu family, Qin Jiyan wouldn't have come to ask.
"Hmph..." Gu Qiancheng laughed angrily: "I guess you are my good second aunt." Gu Qianmeng was beaten by Princess Zhao and Princess Pingxi, and her reputation fell to the bottom. The second lady wanted to win over Gu Qianmeng.
The city backs up.
"So the rumors are not true?" Then he was relieved, but why should he be worried?
Qin Jiyan didn't want to go into details. He attributed everything to the fact that if Gu Qiancheng was married, it would be inconvenient to use it.
"It's not all false." Gu Qiancheng's words made Qin Jiyan's newly calm heart start to worry again: "What? Do you really want to get married?"
Qin Jiyan's breathing stagnated, his pupils contracted slightly, waiting for Gu Qiancheng's answer.
Gu Qiancheng didn't notice Qin Jiyan's strange behavior and sighed: "My grandfather wants to take advantage of my good fortune to marry me into a high family."
Although it is a bit unkind to say this about his grandfather, the fact is that it is like this. Before, when no one cared about her and her reputation was ruined, the old man never thought of helping her find a good family and provide her with stability for the rest of her life.
"Oh..." Qin Jiyan responded in a long way, putting down half of his mental arithmetic: "What do you think?" As long as Gu Qiancheng didn't want to, he had a way to make the old man give up his thoughts.
"Me? I have no plans to get married for the time being. The old lady and I made it clear. The old lady took a step back. It should be safe in a short time." As for how long it will be safe, Gu Qiancheng can't guarantee it.
Qin Jiyan finally felt at ease: "You're right to think so. It's not easy to find a suitable family in your current situation. Let's wait until two years later..."
Qin Jiyan paused for a moment before speaking, and looked out the window with a far-reaching gaze: "When that day comes, I will promise you a different future."
Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan both knew which day that day was. Although what Qin Jiyan said now was a bit like writing a blank check, Gu Qiancheng knew that Qin Jiyan was serious and said with a smile: "Thank you very much.
Your Highness King Qin, then I will wait."
Now that she has embarked on this path, she must stay focused on going to the end. Gu Qiancheng will not do such things as defecting or betraying the alliance midway.
"I will never...disappoint you." Qin Jiyan promised, but when he spoke, he changed "I will not let you down" into "I will not let you down."
Gu Qiancheng noticed Qin Jiyan's unnatural pause. He just thought he was worried about something important and didn't think much about it. At this time, it was still too early to talk about success and fame. Gu Qiancheng naturally changed the topic and continued to talk about the case of the Goddess Tower.
superior.
"Your Highness King Qin, can you find the small goddess statue? I want to see the difference between the small goddess statue and the goddess statue in the Goddess Temple?"
The most important thing is to see if the eyes of the goddess statue have the effect of confusing people's hearts.
Qin Jiyan understood Gu Qiancheng's thoughts and nodded slowly: "After you find it, I will have someone bring it to you." The six doors are now equipped with professional operators, but Qin Jiyan still likes to work with Gu Qiancheng.
.
"Okay." Gu Qiancheng didn't refuse. Although she was not a workaholic or a strong woman, she could only live a life of eating and sleeping for two or three days. After a while, she couldn't stand it anymore. It would be better to do something else.
After talking about business and personal matters, it was getting dark. Qin Jiyan stood up and wanted to go back, but before leaving, he did not forget to tell Gu Qiancheng: "The weather is going to change. If you have nothing to do, go for a walk."
The two sentences are extremely contradictory, but...
Gu Qiancheng understood it clearly.
"Has it started?" Gu Qiancheng's heartstrings trembled, she knew what was going on.
"Yeah." The emperor wanted to delay it for so long, but others didn't want to.
"I understand, I will leave the city tomorrow." Gu Qiancheng took a deep breath, knowing that she could not participate in what happened next, and decisively chose to jump out.
"Yeah." Qin Jiyan raised the corners of his lips, and there was a hint of smile in his eyes.
No wonder...
No wonder the Yan family fell in love with Gu Qiancheng. Gu Qiancheng was a rare woman who was smart and knew how to advance and retreat. She always knew what to do and what not to do, and would never do anything embarrassing.
Rejecting Gu Qiancheng's offer, Qin Jiyan left as quietly as he came, without disturbing anyone...
In the dark, deserted street, Qin Jiyan walked slowly on the street under the moonlight. Not long after, a man in black came out of the darkness: "Your Highness."
After bowing with his hands clasped in fists, he followed Qin Jiyan, keeping pace with Qin Jiyan, only half a step behind.
"Your Highness, someone has been watching outside Miss Gu's yard, and my subordinates have already captured the person. It's the way of the rivers and lakes." The voice of the person who came was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for Qin Jiyan to hear.
Qin Jiyan was not surprised at all. After Gu Qiancheng received the letter from the so-called "Wu family", Qin Jiyan guessed that someone was secretly watching Gu Qiancheng.
It's not necessarily bad for Gu Qiancheng, but...
His Highness the King of Qin was not happy.
"Take the person back and ask him carefully. I don't want it to happen again."
