Drunk House Chapter 332

Chapter 332 Runs in the opposite direction (second update)

Coming out of Yan Echo's East Palace, Zhou Gu felt both relaxed and heavy.

Relaxedly, he didn't expect that Yan Huisheng could manipulate him into agreeing with his thoughts and plans. What's more serious is that, as Yan Huisheng said, as a descendant of the Duke's Mansion, since he has the surname Zhou, he cannot fall into the lintel of the Duke's Mansion.

He didn't take a car or ride a horse, and walked all the way to the Duke Protector's Mansion.

Walking halfway, it was a coincidence that he met Ye Guixue's carriage returning to Cheng Guogong's mansion. He took a look at the sky, and it was still early, so he stopped and avoided the carriage waiting for Ye Guixue to pass by.

Ye Guixue's carriage approached, the driver reined in the horse's reins, and stopped inside the carriage. Ye Guixue raised the curtain of the car, poked her head out, and said hello to Zhou Gu, "Young Master Thursday."

Zhou Gu cupped his hands, "Second Young Master Ye."

Ye Guixue asked: "Why is Mr. Zhou walking alone?"

"I just came out of the East Palace and want to take a walk."

Ye Guixue nodded, looked at his thin clothes, and asked warmly: "The weather is too cold, it's cold in winter, I'm afraid the wounds on Mr. Zhou's body are still not healed, so you need to be more careful. There is still a long way from here to Duke Huguo's Mansion, and you have come out of the East Palace and come here, and you have walked so far. Why don't you get in the car now, and I will take you home?"

Zhou Gu looked at Ye Guixue, "How can I waste the time of Young Master Ye? I'll just walk slowly by myself."

Ye Guixue shook her head, "No delay."

Zhou Gu smiled and thanked, "Then thank you, Mr. Ye Er."

Thus, Zhou Gu got into Ye Guixue's carriage.

The coachman turned his horse's head and walked towards the Duke Huguo's mansion.

The carriage was very comfortable and warm, Ye Guixue handed Zhou Gu a cup of hot tea, "Fourth Young Master, warm your hands."

Zhou Gu took it, and thanked again, "Thank you, Second Master Ye."

Zhou Gu didn't know what to say. He and Ye Guixue were destined to be unable to be friends. He admired people like Ye Guixue, but because of Su Rong, he could only stop admiring her. He even didn't know if one day he would fight him. After all, he couldn't let Su Rong go, and he, now Su Rong's fiancé, made him jealous.

Zhou Gu never thought that one day, he would be jealous of Su Rong's fiancé.

When he was crowned with this title, he didn't care very much at that time. Before he saw her, he wanted to take it off. Unexpectedly, one day, this title was crowned by someone else, and he cared so much that he wanted to go back and stab the self who didn't cherish it.

Ye Guixue treated Zhou Gu like a friend, very gentle, and asked him, "I heard that the scientific examination is about to release the rankings, and the fourth son must be on the rankings. Congratulations in advance."

Zhou Gu twitched the corner of his mouth, "Thank you."

It seems that apart from Xie, he won't say anything else.

Ye Guixue smiled, "Today I have a discussion with brother Xing Ze. Brother Xing Ze admires the talents of the Fourth Young Master very much. Now there is still some distance to go. If it is convenient for the Fourth Young Master, I would like to discuss with the Fourth Young Master."

Zhou Gu nodded, "Naturally, it's convenient. I've admired the name of Young Master Ye for a long time, but I haven't found an opportunity. I'm lucky today."

So, the two of you came and went, talking about learning.

Ye Guixue read through the history books, and Zhou Gu did the same. Unknowingly, the long journey had been completed, and the carriage stopped at the gate of the Duke Huguo's mansion. The coachman's voice sounded, and Zhou Gu regained consciousness.

He stopped talking, and said goodbye to Ye Guixue, "Thank you, Second Master Ye, today, it's getting late, so I won't invite Second Master Ye into the mansion, and I will invite Second Master Ye to drink some other day."

Ye Guixue nodded, "I had a discussion with Mr. Zhou today, and I benefited a lot."

"Second Master Ye is humble, and I have also benefited a lot." Zhou Gu got out of the carriage and didn't enter the mansion immediately. Instead, he watched Ye Guixue's carriage leave until Ye Guixue's carriage left the end of the long street and was nowhere to be seen. Then he looked back and walked into the mansion.

The butler greeted Zhou Gu, "Fourth Young Master, why did you send the carriage back in advance? How did you come back? Did you really walk back?"

Zhou Gu shook his head, "Master Ye Er sent me back."

The butler was taken aback, "Why, why did you meet Young Master Ye Er?"

"Coincidentally." Zhou Gu didn't want to say more.

The housekeeper nodded and said to him: "The prince is back."

Zhou Gu paused, surprised, "Brother is back? When did he come back? Where is he now?"

"The eldest son came back before noon. He has met the old Duke and the eldest princess. Now he is waiting for you in your yard."

Zhou Gu nodded, and strode towards his yard.

Although Zhou Wei, the eldest son of the Huguo Duke's Mansion, and Zhou Gu were born of the same mother, but because they stayed in the military camp all year round, they have a much tougher appearance than Zhou Gu, and their stature is almost stronger than Zhou Gu's, especially since Zhou Gu has lost a lot of weight since Su Rong's divorce.

So, when Zhou Wei saw Zhou Gu, he almost didn't recognize him, "Fourth brother?"

Zhou Gu hasn't seen Zhou Gu for a few months, and he is still very happy, "Brother."

Zhou Wei was sure, it was Zhou Gu who was right, he frowned, "Why did you lose so much weight? I heard that you haven't recovered from your injuries, so why did you run out of the house?"

Zhou Gu shook his head, "My injury is fine, and my elder brother seems to have lost weight too. Is it because of the hard training recently?"

Zhou Wei nodded, "Grandpa sent someone to inform me a long time ago, to train more diligently, fearing that the Great Wei will go to war. It has been really hard recently."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Gu, "I heard from your sister-in-law that you haven't been well recently?"

Zhou Gu smiled, "Very good."

Zhou Wei looked at his expression, but he didn't see the gloomy appearance described by his concubine. Apart from being a little thinner, he seemed to be in good condition. He felt relieved and said to him: "I heard from my grandfather that after the scientific examination results are released, you plan to leave Beijing to travel?"

"Yes." Zhou Gu nodded.

Zhou Wei agreed, "Going for a walk is a good thing. It stands to reason that you should have gone for a walk a few years ago. However, you have been trapped in the East Palace as the prince's companion. Although it is a bit late now, you are not for the present, but for the future. The time is still long, and it is not too late."

Zhou Gu was silent, he didn't mention that he didn't plan to be the prince's assistant minister.

Zhou Wei asked: "After leaving Beijing, where is the first place you plan to go?"

"Nanping." Zhou Gu said.

Zhou Wei nodded, "Do you know when the list will be released?"

Zhou Gu replied, "The Great Confucianism has checked the test papers and made the list. His Majesty will review the list tomorrow and then release the list. It will not take more than a day or two."

Zhou Wei was taken aback, "So, you will leave Beijing in a few days?"

Zhou Gu nodded.

Zhou Weidao: "It's dangerous outside, and the guards around you may not be enough to guard against it. From my guards, I'll send you some people to take it away?"

Zhou Gu shook his head, "Mother has borrowed some manpower from Qinghe Cui Clan, brother, don't worry, it's enough."

Zhou Wei laughed immediately when he heard the words, "Yes, I forgot, the outside is dangerous, and mother is not at ease with you. She has prepared manpower for you in advance and is considerate."

He sighed and smiled, "Fourth brother, you have to be well. If something happens to you, my mother may not survive. When you are away from home, you must always remember that there are grandparents, mother and I waiting for you to come back."

Zhou Gu pursed his lips, "Brother, I know."

He knows that there are close relatives at home who are looking forward to his safe return home, but he also knows that there is only one thing he can guarantee, try to make himself safe. As for returning home, he doesn't know.

Because he was going to Nanchu, he wanted to take root in Nanchu, which ran counter to their expectations.

Babies, the monthly pass is free, especially for those who support Zhou Gu, do you understand?
