Carried Off (Part One)
With a whooshing sound, Yu Fu, who had just been praised for her composure by madam Su, flew like an arrow.
Everyone subconsciously followed along behind her.
If it came to Kun WuShang starting a fight, they were not the slightest bit surprised. That was a guy who did not care about anything. How could he possibly have the bearing of a prince?
But Gu ShuBai was different. He very rarely even got angry at others. He was the perfect heir of a noble family. He was polite and never caused problems.
What had Kun WuShang done that could make Gu ShuBai start fighting with him?
“Eldest brother!”
Yu Fu shouted while running. Outside the main gates of Marquis Gu’s Manor, the stunning sound of swords clashing could be heard.
Those with training could tell that neither side was holding back.
Hearing Yu Fu’s voice, Gu ShuBai suddenly stopped, and Kun WuShang took this chance to attack his waist.
All that could be heard was Su YunYan inhaling sharply. In a flash, Gu ShuBai bounced up from the ground and avoided his sword.
With a turn of his sword, he brought it to Kun WuShang’s throat.
“ShuBai!”
The eldest prince spoke out to stop him. Seeing Gu ShuBai filled with murderous intent, it seemed very likely that he wanted to kill Kun WuShang.
Killing him was a trivial matter. The relationship between Eastern Ling and Western Kun was not.
Kun WuShang provocatively looked at him, “What, are people not allowed to speak the truth? This prince entered Immortals Valley at the age of 15. At that time, Yu Fu was only six. The relationship that we share is not something that you can compare with!”
So they were fighting over Yu Fu.
Sheathing his sword, Gu ShuBai mockingly looked at him, “The relationship is good. It’s so good that Yu Fu doesn’t even want to let you in.”
“You!”
How treacherous. He clearly knew that Yu Fu did not let him enter Marquis Gu’s Manor only because she was worried that Emperor Ning would become suspicious, did he not?
In front of the eldest prince and the others, Gu ShuBai was certain that he would never dare to reveal such a thing. He could only suffer this loss in silence.
“I won’t be seeing you off!”
“Hmph!”
Kun WuShang flicked his sleeves and left, leaving everyone in a daze.
“Eldest brother…”
Even Gu JiuGe was afraid of seeing Gu ShuBai like this. Yu Fu, however, dared to step forward and miserably tug at his sleeve.
With her calling out, his expression immediately returned to normal.
“You must have been scared, right?”
She shook her small head.
No matter how her eldest brother became, she would not be afraid.
“I’ve been disrespectful, eldest prince, second prince. Yu Fu and I have something to talk about and will not be keeping you company.”
Saying this, he picked Yu Fu up and quickly disappeared.
“I seem to remember eldest brother saying something about boys and girls should keep their distance?”
Gu Yi was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, “Why is it that I can’t even have a piece of her clothes, yet he can carry Yu Fu?”
“You’re a young child. You don’t understand.”
The eldest prince smiled warmly then looked over at Gu JiuGe and the others, sharing a tacit understanding.
The second prince furrowed his brow.
So Gu ShuBai not wanting to marry Princess DanYang, it was because of Yu Fu.
If DanYang knew about this, she might completely destroy the imperial palace.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival’s imperial banquet, she had lost to Yu Fu. She had lost so thoroughly that she already hated her to death.
Aside from Gu Yi, everyone else present had discerning eyes. Even Su YunYan could see it. Gu ShuBai liked Yu Fu.
His suddenly fighting with Kun WuShang was most likely a result of this.
“Eldest cousin naturally has his reasons for acting like this. Don’t speak nonsense, the two princes are still here!”
Su YunYan suddenly realized the general situation and dragged Gu Yi away, “Enjoy your chat, enjoy your chat. I will give him a proper explanation.”
It seemed that she was in a very good mood, even changing the way that she addressed Gu ShuBai.
Gu JiuGe was slightly worried, looking in the direction that Gu ShuBai had gone. Gu HanMo suddenly nudged him.
He turned his head. The eldest prince was currently looking at him, recalling what she had just said, “I recall that the related young miss previously called him eldest brother?”
Eldest brother, eldest cousin.
Some distance had instantly been created.
Sure enough, she had become Yu Fu’s best friend, thus she must not get involved with her best friend’s man. This was her oath.
On the eldest prince’s face, the words avoid danger could clearly be seen.
“Second brother, my memory isn’t too good. Do you remember?”
Seeing Gu JiuGe’s dazed appearance, the eldest prince keenly noted something was off and turned the conversation over to the second prince.
Strike one and mock another.
The eldest prince was the biggest winner of the day.
“Hmph!”
The second prince felt that he did not have any face to stay and started to walk out on his own.
“Second brother is too ignorant. I hope that everyone will forgive him. I will also be leaving.”
The eldest prince bid farewell with a smile. In a rare occurrence, when everyone had finally left, Gu HanMo spoke up, “Eldest brother was too impatient this time, starting a fight in front of the eldest prince and the second prince.”
He helplessly shook his head.
Nobody in this family allowed him to have peace of mind.
Gu Xiang said in a daze: “What does third brother mean? Did you all know that eldest brother liked Yu Fu? I’m saying… that sort of like!”
“Hah.”
Gu WenQing let out a sigh, “This is also fine. This will keep His Majesty from trying to play matchmaker, leaving both of them feeling uneasy.”
“The two of them?”
Gu JiuGe’s eyes were blazing like fires, staring closely at Gu WenQing.
Oh no!
He had carelessly revealed Yu Fu’s little secret!
“Second brother, I… I’ll go and take a look to keep anything from happening!”
Gu WenQing ran off in haste and nearly fell to the ground when he tripped.
What happened today. It was a complete mess!
Gu HanMo irritatedly pulled out his sword, “I’m going to train. There will naturally be a conversation when father returns!”
From beginning to end, he was the only one without wishes or desires.
This left only Gu JiuGe and Gu Xiang, and the latter let out a dissatisfied snort, “Eldest brother is too much, only allowing the officials to set fires but not letting the civilians light candles! Next time, I also want to carry Yu Fu!”
