The father-in-law and his wife accidentally drank too much.
After drinking too much, King Nan Chu did not leave. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and said to Zhou Gu: "Xian son-in-law, I heard that you were in the army and lived in the same king's tent with Xiao Qi. Now you have returned to the king's tent." It’s all over, why are you separated from her? Did you have a quarrel? "
Zhou Gu shook his head, "No, everything in the army is simple. You don't care about the rules between life and death every day. Now that you have returned to the royal capital, it is naturally different."
He was afraid that the King of Southern Chu would misunderstand, so he blushed and said, "Xiao Qi and I are innocent until now. Father-in-law, please don't misunderstand me."
The King of Nanchu clicked his tongue, "You've lived here for so long and you're still innocent? You two behave according to the rules."
Zhou Gu naturally wouldn't say that he could bear the harshness. He only asked: "Father-in-law, how did you ask the Ministry of Rites to prepare for our wedding?"
The King of Nanchu shook his head and nodded, "I gave the Minister of Rites a fatal order to handle your wedding affairs for ten months, and he complied."
“Ten months is too long, isn’t it?” Zhou Gu muttered.
The King of Southern Chu sighed, "The Minister of Rites is so old that he was almost forced to retire..."
Zhou Gu was speechless.
The King of Southern Chu drunkenly patted him on the shoulder, "You already have a marriage contract. The marriage contract written by Xiao Qi for you is recognized by Gu. So, you two don't need to be too polite. I thought it was the same with your mother-in-law back then. The marriage certificate is in hand..."
"Father-in-law." Zhou Gu immediately intercepted his words and said, "You are drunk."
He didn't want to hear how his father-in-law and mother-in-law broke the rules and had Su Rong.
The King of Southern Chu looked at Zhou Gu drunkenly, "Young and energetic, I can only understand. My virtuous son-in-law, why are you so pedantic?"
Zhou Gu felt ashamed and solemnly emphasized, "Father-in-law, don't be disrespectful, and don't deceive me. I won't be wronged. I want to spend the night in the wedding room."
The King of Nanchu snorted, "You are stupid. You have to know, didn't I want to stay in the wedding ceremony? Didn't I want to stay at the wedding ceremony? Do you think I have wronged your mother-in-law? At that time, I was afraid of long nights and many dreams. , I am afraid that the situation will change. Only what is in one's hands and what is eaten in one's mouth is one's own. If I hadn't been wise, how could your mother-in-law have given birth to a daughter for me? When we married Wei, if she hadn't discovered that she was pregnant with She had already died while pregnant with Xiao Qi, so how could she fake her death and escape, give birth to Xiao Qi as an orphan, and live for many more years?"
After he finished speaking, he patted Zhou Gu on the shoulder and said, "Young man, don't be stubborn. The Protector's Palace will teach you how to have a good character, and Daliang East Palace will teach you how to be a minister and govern the world, but no one of them told you. , Life is like a fleeting moment, you get it, enjoy it, enjoy it, if you can't bear it, why should you bear it to death? If Xiao Qi is really killed in the battle at Heiyaguan, will you not regret it later? "
Zhou Gu paused.
King Nan Chu let go of his hand and held his forehead, "Hey, I'm really confused. I almost forgot. I'm Xiao Qi's biological father. How can I teach you this... Okay, okay, just pretend that I didn't say anything."
“You are also my biological father.” Zhou Gu reached out and hugged the King of Nanchu and muttered, “But I just want flowers and candles in the wedding room...”
“Yeah, yeah, you want it, you want it. Okay, let’s go.” King Nan Chu pulled his hand away and stood up unsteadily.
A servant immediately came forward to help the king of Nan Chu.
After King Nan Chu left, Zhou Gu lay on the table, his whole body in a daze, his eyes blurred by drunkenness.
Xiao Fuzi stepped forward cautiously, "Fourth Young Master, my servant has ordered someone to bring you some sobering soup. After you drank the sobering soup, my servant helped you into the room to rest?"
Zhou Gu nodded slowly.
Zhou Gu lay down on the bed, opened his eyes, and looked at the roof of the shed.
Xiao Fuzi was about to lower the curtain for him, but when he saw that he was motionless with his eyes open and not sleeping, he asked in a low voice: "Fourth Young Master, aren't you sleepy? Do you feel uncomfortable? Do you need me to call the doctor for you?" "No need." Zhou Gu waved his hand, "Go ahead!"
"If you feel uncomfortable, call the servant, and the servant will guard you outside." Xiao Fuzi said.
Zhou Gu said "hmm".
Xiao Fuzi lowered the curtains, walked out, and quietly closed the door.
Zhou Gu kept his eyes open for a while, then closed his eyes and lay there for a while. He turned over, reached out and touched, and found the cold quilt. He turned over again and touched again, but it was still empty. He opened his eyes again and looked around. He was alone, lying on the big bed. He sighed and closed his eyes again. After a while, he unconsciously reached out and touched for a long time, but found nothing. Touching it, he woke up irritably.
After waking up, he sat up, opened the curtain, put on his shoes, reached for his coat, put it on properly, and walked out.
The door opened, and Xiao Fuzi was waiting outside. When he saw him coming out, he immediately asked: "Fourth Young Master, what are your orders?"
Zhou Gu shook his head, "I want to go to Feng Palace."
"Are you going to see the princess?" Xiao Fuzi said immediately, "I will accompany you."
Zhou Gu waved his hand, "No need, I'll go by myself." After saying that, he walked out.
Xiao Fuzi naturally couldn't disobey orders, so he stopped.
Zhou Gu went straight out of the Huang Palace. He remembered clearly that when he entered the palace, Aunt Zhao led the way and showed him that the two palaces were adjacent. He went out and turned left. He met several palace maids and eunuchs on the way. He saluted quickly, nodded, ignored it, and went directly to Fengdian.
Yue Wan was in the courtyard directing the little palace maids and the little eunuchs to work, very stylishly. Aunt Zhao said that since the princess is back, the rules of the Phoenix Palace cannot be as loose as before. She wants to arrest her, so Su Rong After falling asleep, she started to get busy.
Hearing someone whisper that Mr. Zhou was coming, she was stunned for a moment, quickly dropped what she was doing, and hurried out to greet him. When she saw Zhou Gu, she asked in a low voice: "Fourth Young Master, what are you..."
Zhou Gu glanced at Yuewan and said, "I'm looking for Su Rong."
Yue Wan blinked and said, "Miss is asleep."
"It's okay. I'll go find her myself. You don't have to worry about it." Zhou Gu walked inside.
Yuewan: “…”
She naturally wouldn't stop him, followed Zhou Gu, and whispered: "Miss is in the back room of the main hall."
Zhou Gu said softly "Hmm".
When he reached the door of the main hall, someone opened the door. Zhou Gu stepped into the house, passed through the painting hall, entered two small side halls, came to the innermost back room, quietly opened the door, opened the bead curtain, and saw The person sleeping in the curtains on the bed inside. Vaguely, his empty heart was suddenly filled.
He came to the bed, opened the curtains, and looked at the sleeping people inside.
Su Rong's sleeping position was not good. He had been used to it these days. He looked at her for a while, took off his coat and boots, and went to bed. He pushed Su Rong into the big bed unceremoniously, pulled off the quilt himself, and lay down.
Su Rong slowly opened her eyes and asked in a daze, "Zhou Gu? What are you doing?"
Didn’t they say that they would live separately after returning to the royal capital? (End of chapter)
