Chapter 298 Good friends are going to get together?
Gu Mingzhe was stunned for a moment.
It was not until the beauty had snuggled up and sat down beside him that he was suddenly startled!
Zhang Mingxuan saw that Gu Mingzhe was staring at the beauty, so he asked the beauty to serve Gu Mingzhe. Who would have thought that Gu Mingzhe was such a coward that he jumped up in fright as soon as the beauty sat next to him.
Zhang Mingxuan pointed at Gu Mingzhe's nose and said angrily, "Why are you so unreasonable? That woman isn't here. Who are you showing off to?"
The woman in red also pulled her gauze dress down halfway, revealing her fair and delicate shoulders. She looked at Gu Mingzhe with charming eyes and whispered, "Master... do you dislike me so much?"
Gu Mingzhe was so frightened that he took three steps back. His eyes unconsciously glanced elsewhere, but he saw that there seemed to be sounds of obscene pleasure coming from the gauze pavilion not far away.
His face looked extremely grim. He bowed and immediately turned to leave.
Zhang Mingxuan quickly took two steps forward and pulled the man back: "Brother Gu, you are not scared, are you? You haven't even entered the door yet..."
Gu Mingzhe turned around suddenly, his face filled with anger:
"Yes, I am afraid. If I indulge myself today, I won't even have the chance to get close to her in the future... You said you brought me here to relax, but who knew it would be such a place full of women..."
"Everyone knows that the best scenery in Kyoto can be found in Fangyuan. I brought you here to relax," Zhang Mingxuan explained with a smile, "and to see the beauty by the way."
Gu Mingzhe abruptly shook off his sleeve that Zhang Mingxuan had pulled up, bowed again, his face icy, "Zhang Mingxuan, today I know that you and I are not on the same path. Farewell!"
"Brother Gu, Brother Gu, this is serious!" Zhang Mingxuan quickly explained, "I didn't think too much about it. I just brought you here to see the world... Who would have thought that you would react so strongly..."
"You know very well how noble Princess Zhaohua is. If the news of my visit today gets to her ears, do you think she will look at me again?" Gu Mingzhe said sternly with red eyes.
"If you don't want to look, then don't look. She's just a woman. Is that so important to you?"
Zhang Mingxuan was also annoyed and yelled at Gu Mingzhe, "There are so many women in the world, why did you choose to fall in love with such a heartless and cold-blooded person?"
"She keeps a lover for herself, but she won't let you get close to any woman. What's the logic behind this?"
"Who are you?"
"You are the world-famous number one young master in the capital!"
"You are the pride of us, the young students of Dayong!"
"But look at yourself now. For a woman who has no heart for you at all, how far will you go?"
"Zhang Mingxuan!" Gu Mingzhe's eyes turned red with anger, and he shouted sternly, "This is my own business, it has nothing to do with you!"
"Okay, it has nothing to do with me. You've fallen into depravity by yourself and insisted on being that woman's slave. I don't care about you. I don't care about you, okay?"
Zhang Mingxuan was furious and continued, "I thought you were a good brother, but who would have thought you would look at me this way? Brother Gu, you're right. People with different ideals cannot work together... I shouldn't have brought you here today..."
Just as he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard not far away.
There seemed to be dust and smoke billowing from the direction of the gate. Countless guards guarding Fangyuan rushed over, shouting as they rushed: "Someone is messing up the place, come quickly..."
A plump, white man who seemed to be in charge was organizing people to go to the gate while going to the inner hall of Fangyuan alone.
Zhang Mingxuan realized that something was wrong and immediately wanted to take Gu Mingzhe away. The reason why Fangyuan was called Fangyuan was not only because of its good secrecy, but more importantly, it had four exits.
Each exit is heavily guarded, and no matter what happens at the front door, they have the opportunity to leave through other doors.
After all, those who come to Fangyuan are all officials appointed by the imperial court.
Once something happens, no one wants to be blocked here and lose face.
Therefore, no matter what the situation is at the front door, the guards will definitely make a big noise first to give the people inside enough time to escape.
But none of them expected that the people who came to cause trouble today had already surrounded the entire Fangyuan with soldiers.
According to Hua Rong's information, Zhong Ning first ordered people to block the other three exits, and then led the remaining people to break through the main gate.
Bang, bang, bang... three times in a row, the imperial guards brought huge trees that were big enough to knock down the city gate and directly knocked open the gate of Fangyuan.
Then hundreds of imperial guards swarmed in.
According to the plan set up by Zhong Ning, some people would go to capture the imperial officials who came here for pleasure, and some would go to search the dungeon and rescue the innocent children who were trapped and being trained there.
Another part is responsible for following Zhong Ning and coordinating the entire situation.
Zhang Mingxuan pulled Gu Mingzhe with him, and there was no escape for him. In the end, they were escorted by the swarming imperial guards in pairs to the empty space in the front hall of Fangyuan.
Zhang Mingxuan wanted to resist, but he was outnumbered and could only shout, "You are blind, you even dared to arrest me... Do you know who I am..."
Gu Mingzhe looked anxious, but his good etiquette training prevented him from saying anything bad. Like the other arrested people, he was escorted to the front lobby by the imperial guards.
Every aspect of Fangyuan's landscape is exquisite.
Even the most spacious places demonstrate the magnanimity and generosity of the royal family.
Unfortunately, Gu Mingzhe was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery at this moment. He was led all the way here and saw the beautiful woman who was commanding the imperial guards in the front lobby, and she was looking at him with a cold gaze.
In an instant, all the blood drained from his face.
Zhong Ning didn't expect that after their last unpleasant parting, they would meet again in such an occasion.
He was still the jade-like young man with bright moon and fresh breeze, but now he stood there as if he was isolated from the world. He just looked at her like that without any guilt.
Zhong Ning curled his lips speechlessly, then turned to look at the other gentlemen who were arrested by the imperial guards after they broke into the house.
Some of them were disheveled and their faces were still flushed. When Zhong Ning looked at them, they lowered their heads in shame and covered their faces with their sleeves.
Some of them were cursing and smelling of alcohol, as if they had just been surrounded by people and were about to take up arms and go into battle when the imperial guards broke in through the door.
Although some of them were dressed neatly, there was an evil light flashing between their eyebrows, as if they were planning something good just now, and only felt embarrassed and annoyed at being disturbed.
Others were trembling with fear. The moment they saw Zhong Ning, they were so scared that they knelt on the ground, burst into tears, and kowtowed for mercy.
Of course, there were also some who insisted on being stubborn, thinking that they had only come to Fangyuan to enjoy the scenery, and being arrested like this was really humiliating.
"Princess Zhaohua, what do you mean? We just come to Fangyuan to sit for a while and will leave in a moment. It is really inappropriate for you to bring troops in and disturb our enjoyment!" Du Wusheng, the magistrate of Jingzhou, said dissatisfiedly.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, I really came here to enjoy the scenery. You have arrested the wrong person. We are all officials in the same court. Please give me some face!" Cui Jin, the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Revenue, knelt on the ground crying and begged for mercy.
(Everything that happens will definitely benefit me...Hold on, and make sure it's complete, so as not to let myself down, and not to let down the readers who are still supporting me)
