Chapter Forty-Eight: The Reappearance of the Murderous Machine

The night was dark and windy, and there was no light in the dark room, and the handsome man and the delicate woman sat on the bed together.

This was a very charming and ambiguous scene, but for Gu Shuiyue, who was in it, there was a cold air in the air, and the atmosphere was quite embarrassing.

Gu Shuiyue turned her head to look. Gongsun Yi sat there, his back straight, his hands clenched into fists on his laps, his eyes tightly closed, and a layer of cold air wrapped around his tough facial features.

Gu Shuiyue felt that the man in front of her was in a very unhappy state.

Why is Gongsun Yi unhappy?

Because the old princess's words were still the old princess's cold and blaming eyes?

Of course, Gongsun Yi at this time is more like a person. He will also be trapped in family affection.

Gu Shuiyue looked at him and couldn't help but think of herself. As generals, their orders are related to the lives of thousands of people, and they must walk at the forefront with their swords, and use the heads of the enemy to build their own path. Everyone thinks they are ruthless and think they kill without blinking, but in reality, they are also a human being, with human feelings.

However, no one cares.

Under the moonlight, Gongsun Yi's face loomed, and at that moment, Gu Shuiyue actually had a feeling of sympathy for the enemy she had once on the battlefield.

"The moonlight is good tonight, does the prince dare to race horses with his concubine?" Gu Shuiyue's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and her eyes flashed with smart brilliance.

Gongsun Yi opened his eyes to look at her, and he could see some girlish looks on her face. That kind of look is bright and moving, which is completely different from the appearance when she calculates people.

Gongsun Yi stood up suddenly, took Gu Shuiyue's hand and walked outside.

They ran out holding hands, and instead of going out through the main gate, they jumped out of the wall together, and stepped into the moonlight, and came to the horse farm.

The man watching the horse woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't help but shout, but his mouth was immediately covered.

The horseman saw the person clearly, and knelt down in fright: "Lord!" and then looked at the woman beside the prince, "Princess." ”

The horsemen rubbed their eyes, and there was a hint of tenderness on their Shura prince's face, and he was still holding the princess's hand! I had long heard that the prince loved the princess, but now when I saw it, what he said was true.

"This king is here to pick two horses. ”

Gongsun Yi is on the battlefield, and for a general, the horse is his best partner. In the horse farm belonging to the palace, there are the best horses in the whole Shuoyun.

Gongsun Yi stood aside with his arms crossed, letting Gu Shuiyue pick first.

Gu Shuiyue walked in front of those horses and finally stopped in front of a big black horse. The horse was a little different from the others, its hair was a little sparse, its back was bent, and its eyes were cloudy, it was an old horse.

"It's called Black Cloud, and it was the one who rode it when he first went to battle, and it accompanied this king for three whole years and saved his life. Gongsun Yi said.

This is an old horse, and it can no longer go to the battlefield, but Gongsun Yi still keeps it. This is very different from the rumored unscrupulous Yun Wangye.

Gu Shuiyue stretched out her hand and stroked Heiyun's rough hair, Heiyun raised his head and glanced at Gu Shuiyue, with a hint of longing in his cloudy eyes.

"That's it. ”

Gongsun Yi raised his eyebrows: "You use it to compete with this king?" Do you underestimate this king too much or do you think too highly of yourself?"

Gu Shuiyue showed a playful smile at him: "What the prince thinks is what it is." ”

Gongsun Yi chose a horse at random, but the one he picked at random was also better than this old horse.

The two rode on horses, facing the evening breeze and stepping on the moonlight, walked out of the horse farm together, and walked on the bank of the Huai River.

At night, when people slept, the whole capital also fell asleep together, especially on the riverside, except for the sound of horses' hooves, only some insect chirpings could occasionally be heard.

Gu Shuiyue had already felt the black clouds under her about to move.

Inferring from the marks on its body, Black Cloud was injured and hadn't run for at least five years. It had seen the wind and frost of the desert and the grasslands of the northern part of the country, but in the end it had to spend the rest of its days in a narrow horse farm.

"Lord, the concubine will go first. ”

As soon as Gu Shuiyue's voice fell, before she threw the whip, the black clouds under her had already rushed out.

Gu Shuiyue was dressed in black, the same color as a black cloud, and quickly disappeared into the depths of the night, the corners of Gongsun Yi's mouth couldn't help but hook a smile, and with a flick of the horsewhip, the horse under him quickly galloped out.

The wind was blowing in her ears, and the whole person seemed to be about to fly, Gu Shuiyue hadn't been so happy for a long time, and she also felt the joy of the black clouds.

Gradually, the black cloud's pace slowed down. Behind him, Gongsun Yi had already followed, the cold wind blew his hunting robe, his black hair fluttered in the wind, and Gongsun Yi's horse slowed down, so the two continued to move side by side.

Gu Shuiyue closed her eyes, enjoying the night breeze, suddenly, her body rose into the air, and in the next moment, she landed on another horse.

Her back was tightly attached to Gongsun Yi's chest and abdomen, and Gongsun Yi's hand was tightly clasped around her waist, and the two sat on the horse in such an intimate posture.

For some reason, Gu Shuiyue suddenly felt a little hot on her face.

"Heiyun is already tired enough, so don't bully it anymore. Gongsun Yi's voice sounded in her ears.

The heat on Gu Shuiyue's face suddenly turned to anger, and she glared at Gongsun Yi fiercely.

Gongsun Yi looked at her slightly cute movements, and couldn't help laughing: "This king is joking, the concubine is light, and she can dance in the palm of this king." In fact, Concubine Ai doesn't have to work so hard to fight wits and courage with those people in the backyard, just look at the king like this, you are the head of the palace, and the Meng family is nothing compared to Concubine Ai. ”

"The prince means that the concubine should serve in Israel?"

"This king is just a suggestion. ”

"Serve people with color, and love with decay. ”

The air was silent for a moment.

"When there is no one, the concubine can call me 'Mo Han'. ”

Gongsun Yi, the word Mohan, there is no one in the world who dares to call him 'Mohan'.

Gu Shuiyue turned her head and saw Gongsun Yi staring at her, as if she was waiting for something. Seeing that she had been silent, Gongsun Yi seemed to be waiting a little impatiently: "Does Concubine Ai have a nickname for the boudoir?"

"How's the water moon?"

"There are too many people in this world who call you 'Water Moon', and this king wants a unique name. ”

Gu Shuiyue was stunned for a moment. Many years later, this scene has hit her heart so clearly, maybe because the moonlight is too beautiful, or maybe because Gongsun Yi's expression is too domineering and amorous, Gu Shuiyue actually forgot about their enemy relationship.

"When I was a child, my mother called me 'Ah Lan'. Gu Shuiyue said.

"Ah Lan, Ah Lan. He repeated it twice in a low voice, and then suddenly waved his whip, and the horse, which had stopped, sped off again.

That night, they ran around the Huaijiang River for I don't know how many laps, Gu Shuiyue fell asleep from Gongsun Yi's arms, and when she woke up again, she lay on her bed.

Gu Shuiyue woke up a little hazy, not knowing if the experience in that night was real or a dream.

When there was a 'squeak', the door was pushed open, and Yinzhu walked in from the outside, Gu Shuiyue knew that her war in this palace had just begun.

She never wanted to be the little pet of King Yun in the palace, she wanted to be his ally, with the help of his power, to slash her enemies.

"The prince just left. Drinking beads couldn't hide the joy in his eyes, "The prince has never spent the night in anyone's room, only Niangniang is different." The prince loves his mother so much, and they dare to calculate his mother, which is really bold. ”

"It seems that my death is not far off. Gu Shuiyue said lightly.

Yinzhu was stunned for a moment, and her face changed suddenly: "Niangniang, what do you mean by this! You are proud and favored, how can you ......?"

"The old lady allows the prince to have an obedient little pet who knows the times, but she will not allow a person who can sway the prince's mood. Yesterday, I angered the old princess, the prince openly stood on my side, and last night I stayed here again, the old lady must have been unable to sit still. Gu Shuiyue said.

If she is more obedient, takes care of the affairs of the palace conscientiously, abdicates at the right time to make way for Xian, and gives up her position to Meng Xiyu, then the old lady may let her live.

And she chose to die.

Yinzhu's face couldn't help but be a little flustered: "Niangniang, what should I do? Now that this palace is full of old lady's people, it is easy for her to harm you! Niangniang, you go and ask the prince to let the prince send someone to protect you." ”

Gu Shuiyue shook her head: "Now we only have speculation, no evidence at all. If the prince really sends someone here, it will only be rumored outside that I will destroy the relationship between King Yun's mother and son. ”

"Mother's ......"

Gu Shuiyue glanced at Yinzhu soothingly: "Don't panic, we just need to wait and see what happens." ”

For the next period of time, the drinking beads can be said to be extremely nervous. Whether it was food, or sachets and other decorations, she had to check it carefully before sending it to Gu Shuiyue.

Those stronger maids, drinking beads, refused to let them approach Gu Shuiyue's courtyard. At night, Yinzhu insisted on keeping vigil outside.

In a short period of time, this maid went down at a very fast speed, and her originally round face was already a slap face.

"Drink beads, go to bed. Gu Shuiyue said.

After dinner, looking at the drinking beads that were still stuck outside, Gu Shuiyue had to say in a stern tone.

"Mother, I'm keeping vigil ......"

"You don't need to keep vigil tonight, don't you even listen to the concubine's orders?" Gu Shuiyue said coldly.

Yuzhu had no choice but to go back to the room to sleep. The next day, Yinzhu couldn't afford to get sick, Gu Shuiyue hurriedly invited the doctor to come and see, and the doctor said that there was no big problem, just overwork, just recuperate. This time, Gu Shuiyue said that she would not drink beads to serve her.

Because of the illness of drinking beads, the person who came to serve Gu Shuiyue has been replaced.

There were two maids who came. One of the ordinary-looking maids was also in Gu Shuiyue's courtyard before, but they were not allowed to serve closely. The other is a fresh face, and the appearance is more delicate.

Gu Shuiyue glanced at the ordinary-looking maid: "What is your name?"

"Slave and maid. Yancui lowered her eyebrows and said pleasantly.

"What about you?" Gu Shuiyue looked at the other way.

"Slave Qingping. "That good-looking maid said.

Qingping was originally serving by the old lady's side, and Gu Shuiyue paid special attention to this maid. Compared with Yancui's low eyebrows, Qingping is simply arrogant. She was originally serving the old lady, she was the old lady's person, and she was originally a little hostile to Gu Shuiyue, and she cut corners in everything.

But after many days of observation, Gu Shuiyue found that this girl didn't do anything to kill her except for liking to be lazy and serving her wholeheartedly.

It seems that the old lady sent to kill her was not her.

Yancui is much more honest and well-behaved.

"Mother, please drink tea. Yancui brought the tea to Gu Shuiyue and said respectfully.

Gu Shuiyue took the teacup, her eyes skimmed Yancui's hand, and suddenly asked, "What are you doing in front of Concubine Ben's courtyard?"

"The slave maid has been in the house for three years, and she has been working as a rough maid in the backyard, sweeping and laundry. ”

Gu Shuiyue closed her eyes and hid the vibration in her eyes.

She had thought it was a little weird before, but now she finally realized the reason for it. Yancui said that she had been a rough girl for three years, but her hands were very tender, except for some blackening, there were no calluses at all!

Yancui brewed a good hand of tea, Gu Shuiyue has been drinking tea for the past few days, she has made it. Thinking of these, Gu Shuiyue's hand holding the teacup couldn't help but tighten a little.

She opened her eyes, just in time to catch the way Smoke looked at her. Gu Shuiyue's face was as usual, she put the teacup to her lips and took a sip.

Yancui suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
