Drunk Bamboo

Although Gu Suifeng often frequented brothels, he never flirted with any woman.

He laughs at the world and has a broad mind.

"She said that you live a clear life. I think the princess is the one who lives the most clearly."

Hongmei said too many sincere words tonight. She smiled charmingly with her red lips and regained her enchanting look.

"Mr. Gu brought Hongmei to such an important wedding banquet. Which girl is he trying to get rid of?"

Gu Suifeng raised his eyebrows and said with an uninhibited smile, "I am afraid that they will go astray. I am a useless playboy, and it would be a waste of time for any girl to marry me."

She flirted with him and flattered him, "You are the legitimate son of the Marquisate. You will inherit the title and live a life of wealth and glory. Whoever marries you will be blessed."

Gu Suiyi, the eldest son of the Yongxing Marquisate, has a noble status. He does not have to do anything and does not need to work hard. He has endless money and can enjoy a life of power and wealth.

He chuckled, and a hint of sadness appeared in the depths of his eyes.

"You don't know that those who fought for the noble title for our Gu family didn't live long, leaving behind unfilial descendants like me who shamelessly enjoy wealth and honor."

At this moment, a teasing laugh suddenly came from behind: "Isn't this Miss Hongmei from Taohua Tower? I thought I was seeing things."

You don't need to look back to know who it is.

Han Xin said sarcastically, "Gu Suiyi, everyone in the country knows that you linger in the red-light districts. At the wedding banquet of King Wen, His Majesty and all the officials are here, and you dare to bring the courtesan here blatantly. Do you want to disgrace the Marquisate? Where do you put the dignity of the royal family?"

Gu Suiyi smiled and said to Hongmei, "Tell me, is God fair? A man like him can be the Minister of Works and be so arrogant all his life. God should open his eyes and take a look."

Hongmei smiled but said nothing.

Han Xin lost face in front of the beauty and became angry: "Gu Suiyi, why are you so arrogant? While I was under house arrest by His Majesty, you used sweet words to trick everyone around me away. What is your intention?"

"They followed me voluntarily and drank with me. Do you know why they don't want to be with you?" Gu Suiyi waved the fan in his hand to make the air fresher, and said disdainfully, "Because you are too self-righteous. Since you don't consider them friends, why do you blame them for leaving you? You shouldn't vent your anger on an innocent person like me."

Those young masters who originally followed Han Xin all had status and position, but some of them fell into poverty, and some gradually declined. Han Xin was just relying on his father Han Jian who held a high position as the Minister of Works, so he was arrogant and looked down on them.

Not only do they order them around, but they also don't treat them as human beings.

Now that the Han family father and son have failed to frame King Feng and have been punished by His Majesty, they naturally have to restrain themselves.

They took this opportunity to leave Han Xin and find another way out.

"You are innocent? You..." Han Xin's fingers were shaking with anger. Suddenly, he saw a few people approaching from a distance. Then he changed his face and showed a treacherous smile. "Marquis Gu has been visiting Lord Xun's house frequently recently. I heard that he likes Lord Xun's granddaughter to be your wife. Gu Suiyi, you are asking for trouble. Don't blame me for ruining the marriage that the Marquis had arranged for you with great difficulty."

As he spoke, his voice suddenly rose, as if he wanted someone to hear:

"Mr. Gu has good taste! He is so enviable that he can invite Hongmei, the most famous courtesan in Zhongdu City, to accompany him! Hongmei is as beautiful as a fairy and has an outstanding temperament. She looks nothing different from a lady from a noble family!"

People around looked over at the same time.

Hongmei said in a soft voice, "Young Master Han often comes to Taohua Tower. Miss has seen a lot, so she has such a discerning eye."

Han Xin was embarrassed and explained, "I was just accompanying the bureaucrats to have a few drinks..."

The people around heard a sigh and looked at Han Xin differently.

Han Xin was in a dilemma and regretted not staying away from Gu Suiyi first.

Then, there was even more excitement:

"You evil creature! You usually behave improperly and do nothing. Today, King Wen is getting married, and you actually brought a prostitute with you. You have brought disgrace to the Marquisate. You, you... I will beat you to death, you evil creature! I will beat you to death..."

Lord Gu swung his fist and hit Gu Suifeng hard on the back.

The next punch was aimed at the head. Gu Suiyi seemed to know where the next punch would be. He ran away with his head in his hands, regardless of his identity or the venue, and shouted for help: "Dad! Spare me, spare me, Dad..."

Those present were all prominent figures, and had never seen such a rough way of parenting. They were so scared that they took a few steps back and just watched the fun from afar.

Of course, Hua Qinfeng and Xie Yuzhu were also there to watch the fun.

Han Xin took the opportunity to hide in the crowd.

“Sister, please save your brother. It doesn’t matter if our father wants to beat me to death, but please don’t dirty King Wen’s land!” Gu Suiyi could only reach out and grab the nearest person to block him. “Sister, please tell father to stop and save the Gu family!”

The girl who was used as a shield was the second daughter of Yongxing Marquis Mansion, Gu Suiyi's biological sister, Gu Ziyi.

"Brother, don't pull my dress, everyone is watching us..." Gu Ziyi was very concerned about her reputation, so she pulled at her newly made dress, trying to get rid of the people behind her.

"With you here, how can the Gu family still have the face to live? It's all ruined by a wicked son like you!" Lord Gu, a fat and kind-hearted man, pointed at Gu Suifeng and cursed.

"Dad, stop talking. Lord Xun and Miss Xun are watching us." Gu Ziyi was really embarrassed. Her father and brother were so rude.

He kept winking at his father, reminding him that Lord Zhongshu Ling Xun and his granddaughter Miss Xun were there, and that he should watch his temper.

But when he got angry, he couldn't control himself: "I, your father, have no choice. Forget about the Xun family's marriage. I don't have the face to ask the Xun family for marriage anymore."

Gu Suiyi said shamelessly: "No, Dad, I am your biological son, please don't let your son live out his life alone!"

Lord Gu and Gu Ziyi were both stunned. What was going on?

He actually took the initiative to get married?

There was a pop.

Gu Suiyi turned around and knelt in front of Lord Xun and Miss Xun, sincerely confessing:

"Greetings, Lord Xun, and Miss Xun. I'm really sorry that you saw my true side the first time we met. I've always heard that Miss Xun is quiet and gentle, has outstanding literary talent, and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Sui Yi has long admired her, and today, seeing Miss Xun's beautiful face, I admire her even more."

Admiration?!

The father and daughter looked at each other in astonishment.

Xun Bai was speechless.

Miss Xun was so frightened that she pursed her lips and said nothing.

Gu Suifeng continued, "What happened today is purely coincidental. I promise here that if the two families get engaged, I will definitely change my ways, turn over a new leaf, and become a new person! I will no longer go to brothels, stay out all night, listen to music and watch dances, linger in flower bushes, or see the singing and dancing of orioles and swallows. I will no longer go to any of them, no longer look for them, no longer look at them, no longer listen to them, and will only guard Miss Xun, this flower, wholeheartedly!"

Miss Xun's eyes widened.

Time seemed to have stopped.

You can even smell the embarrassment in the air.

How can this be called a confession? How can this be called a repentance?

It is clear that he is exposing his own shortcomings and thinking that he is a romantic person without even realizing it. He speaks in a high-sounding and righteous manner.

Thick-skinned and invulnerable to swords and guns.

Xun Bai coughed lightly a few times to calm himself down and suppress the urge to beat Gu Suifeng up.

No wonder Lord Gu was so angry when he saw Gu Suiyi.

"Ahem, Lord Gu, is it time for the wedding banquet to begin?"

Lord Gu came back to his senses: "Yes, yes, we should go in, we should go in."

Gu Ziyi stamped her feet in shame: "Brother, you, you are too outrageous! It's so embarrassing!"
