Transmigrating into a short-lived cannon fodder, she beat the son of destiny to pieces
Chapter 72: The "Cannon Fodder" General Disguised as a Man (17)
Qin Zheng pulled Sui Ning back to the previous private room.
At this moment, Gu Ci was the only one left in the private room, but his face was bruised and swollen, and a brothel girl was applying medicine to him.
Gu Ci grimaced and cried out in pain, "Hiss! Gently, gently..."
When he saw Qin Zheng and Sui Ning, Gu Ci immediately asked the woman to leave.
Sui Ning was surprised to see his miserable state. "I was just out for a while, how did you get beaten like this? What happened?"
In this capital city, who is so bold as to beat up Gu Ci?
Liuliu was eating melons in the system space and said slyly, "Ningning, he was beaten by Qin Zheng."
Sure enough, the next second, Gu Ci gasped and said, "It's still Brother Zheng."
Sui Ning looked at Qin Zheng with a puzzled look.
Qin Zheng said to Sui Ning with a dark face, "It's ok for him to visit the brothel by himself, but he even dragged you along. He deserves a beating!"
The weather was nice today, and he had wanted to invite Sui Ning to go horseback riding in the suburbs.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Li from the Ye Mansion told her that Sui Ning and Gu Ci had left.
He asked around and found out that Sui Ning was brought to the brothel by Gu Ci!
Gu Ci felt that Qin Zheng was making a big deal out of nothing.
"Brother Zheng, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but Ningdi is at an age when he's quite knowledgeable about women, so it's normal for him to visit a brothel."
When he was Sui Ning's age, he already had several concubines.
Qin Zheng's expression was stern, and there was a hint of anger in his deep voice.
"A Ning is still young. This kind of place is not clean. If something happens, can you take responsibility?"
Is the person in this brothel worthy of such a good person like Sui Ning?
Under Qin Zheng's angry glare, Gu Ci hurriedly explained: "I only called innocent girls, not to mention that Brother Ning doesn't like them getting close to him, and he didn't even drink a sip of wine..."
In the past, when he was in the army, he only took care of Sui Ning's food, clothing, housing and transportation, but now he even has to control her visits to brothels.
Brother Zheng seems to be acting more and more like an old woman as he gets older.
Qin Zheng's expression eased slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Fortunately, it's like this. Otherwise, I would go to Ningguo Mansion and talk to the princess about your concubine..."
Hearing Qin Zheng bring up that incident, Gu Ci quickly admitted his mistake and said, "Hey! I won't do it again! There won't be a next time!"
Sui Ning watched the whole thing from the side.
I didn’t expect that Gu Ci, who usually looks well-dressed, actually has such a wild life in private!
Qin Zheng looked at Sui Ning and said earnestly, "A Ning, you are still young. You don't need to rush into matters between men and women. Take your time."
"Ningning, do you think Qin Zheng is weird?" Liuliu asked a soul-searching question.
Judging from Qin Zheng's attitude, if Sui Ning was not a man now, it would have suspected that he fell in love with Sui Ning!
But based on its many years of experience in reading novels.
When it comes to things like this, gender is never a problem...
"Yeah." Sui Ning nodded helplessly, "He's so long-winded, almost catching up with the Xu family."
Liuliu: ...
Is it overthinking?
Or did Sui Ning think too little?
"Aning, you'd better not get too close to King Qi. He is not as simple as you think." Qin Zheng said seriously.
Apparently, he had also heard some of what Song Yan said when he went to find Sui Ning just now.
Now that the emperor is in his prime, there are many secret rivalries among the princes under him, and the King of Qi is a ruthless character.
He was present when other princes got into trouble, but his methods were so powerful that he left no evidence.
As far as he knew, Song Yan and the Crown Prince were the most popular figures in the court, and many court officials had already surrendered to him privately!
Sui Ning nodded, "I understand."
Before she came, both the original owner and Qin Zheng died at the hands of King Qi, and he even became the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty in the end!
How can such a person be simple?
------
Gu Ci did not go home, but returned to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion with Qin Zheng.
At dinner time.
Madam Qin looked at the wound on Gu Ci's face and asked with concern: "Ah Ci, what happened to your face? Did you have a fight?"
Gu Ci said rather embarrassedly, "How could that be? I just accidentally fell down."
Mrs. Qin looked at Qin Zheng with some suspicion, but she saw through it but didn't say anything.
Then he asked excitedly, "I heard from the servants that you went to Xianleju today?"
Her son is excellent in every aspect.
But when it comes to matters between men and women, he is clueless.
If he didn't have the same special status as his father, she wouldn't have kept urging him to get married.
He didn't like any of the portraits of noble ladies from various families in the capital that she had collected from all over the place.
I will be coming of age next year, but I don’t even have a concubine!
"Zheng'er, have you found a girl that catches your eye?"
The Qin family is already a prominent family, so she doesn't require the girl to have a prominent background, as long as she is sensible.
Qin Zheng frowned and said, "Mom, don't think about it, it's not true."
The joy on Mrs. Qin's face faded a little, and then she looked at Gu Ci with an unwilling look.
As if trying to get an answer from him.
Gu Ci said with a stiff upper lip: "Madam, what Brother Zheng said is true. He went to Xianleju to look for me and Brother Ning."
"Brother Ning?" Madam Qin asked, "But that boy who's even more powerful than Zheng'er?"
These days, she heard Qin Ke mention this child every day, and his words were full of praise.
"Yes, ma'am, you may not know that ever since Brother Zheng accepted Brother Ning as his brother, even my seat has been pushed back..."
Listening to Gu Ci talking about the care Qin Zheng had given Sui Ning along the way, Mrs. Qin couldn't help but feel shocked.
Is this referring to the son in front of her?
She never knew that her Zheng'er had such a delicate side!
At first, she thought he didn't understand.
Now it seems that she was worrying too much.
In the future, when Zheng'er meets the girl he likes, everything will be fine.
After thinking about it, Mrs. Qin quickly comforted herself.
"You and Zheng'er are the closest. If anything happens to him in the future, remember to tell me. Zheng'er never says anything to me."
Gu Ci patted his chest and assured, "Of course, ma'am, please rest assured."
He narrowed his eyes slightly, hiding the worry in them.
I just hope Qin Zheng isn't in the situation I imagine...
night.
Qin Zheng and Gu Ci sat on the roof together drinking and watching the moon.
"Brother Zheng, don't you feel that you are abnormal today?" Gu Ci asked tentatively.
He still remembers very clearly how Qin Zheng looked when he rushed into the private room today.
His face was gloomy, and his eyes were deep and dark, like sharp blades, which made people shudder.
Not only did it scare away all the girls in the brothel, it also scared away the group of young men from wealthy families.
He had only seen that kind of look on the battlefield.
Although Qin Zheng is usually cold towards others, he has never lost control like this.
At that moment, even he felt that Qin Zheng had become a little strange.
"Abnormal?"
Qin Zheng shook his head, "A Ning is still young..."
"Here we go again." Gu Ci put down his drink and said helplessly, "I'm younger than you too, so why don't you take care of me like this?"
Especially when Qin Zheng later learned that Sui Ning had gone out, the worry and anxiety in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
"You and I……"
At this moment, Qin Zheng felt his heart was in a mess and he couldn't figure things out.
Originally, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter.
But when Gu Ci mentioned it to him, he couldn't explain why he had such a big emotional fluctuation at that time.
Just as Gu Ci said, the brothers were just visiting a brothel.
But he knew it was different.
Sui Ning and Gu Ci are different.
However, he couldn't clearly tell what was different.
Gu Ci's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he said uncertainly: "Brother Zheng, you don't have any thoughts about Brother Ning... do you?"
