I ...... want to refute him, and I have a thousand reasons to prevaricate, but somehow, I just can't open my mouth at this moment.

Taking a deep breath, I didn't say anything, and walked out of the pavilion with my sleeves brushed up.

Although this deserted garden is in the palace, there seems to be no trace of other people, and it is not like a place like a cold palace. No one repairs it, and no one takes care of it.

What surprised me even more was Emperor Qi and Empress Qi, the relationship between them was inevitably too good, so good that they were willing to come to this kind of place to experience the occasional pleasure of the people, and so good that Gu Yuancheng and I could be treated like this by them. People are self-aware, and I don't think I have such a face that can make the emperor and queen of a country condescend.

Walking around the small dry pond, I sneaked a peek at the vegetable fields behind the hut, and then smoothed my robe back to the pavilion.

Gu Yuancheng has been staying in the small pavilion, not moving, not speaking, just lying on the bench at the railing with his head tilted back and closing his eyes to recuperate, the movement of my return is not small, but he has not opened his eyes once for this.

"Let's talk about the Blood Alliance, the man in black who wanted to assassinate us last time had the mask of Ibihua, and he must also be a member of the Blood Alliance." I lifted my shirt and sat back in my seat, raising my hand to place a green leaf that I had just picked in front of me.

"It's the person of the Blood Alliance branch who is huddled in Biancheng." Gu Yuancheng couldn't alienate me, and said, "I have already sent someone to investigate along the clues." ”

"Although the Blood Alliance is cautious, the information of the various sub-pavilions is not clear, and the abilities of the killers and pavilion masters are also high." I pinched the head of the leaf with one hand and the tail of the leaf with the other, and fiddled with it with amusement, "Since they are going to do it rashly on the Thousand Lanterns...... Of course, I know that you have the credit for this, and I also know that you have been investigating the Biancheng Branch for a long time, but this just shows that the Blood Alliance Branch of Biancheng is not a difficult bone to gnaw, have you ever thought about how to deal with them after figuring out their specific location? “

"The matter in Jiangnan has already shocked the snake, and the blood alliance here will be the key to our ability to defeat them in one fell swoop, and it is the best strategy to do not move." Gu Yuancheng answered me with his eyes closed.

That's what I mean in my heart, but ......

"Biancheng is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if you let them act recklessly, aren't you afraid that your lord will be in danger?" I stopped what I was doing and asked him.

Gu Yuancheng seemed to smile contemptuously, but when I raised my eyes to look at him, he was still the same lazy as before.

"It's just a few pests parasitic on the mother's body, even if they turn out a big flower, it's just to suck a few mouthfuls of Lao Chen's blood, didn't your Royal Highness the Crown Prince rely on them to take the opportunity to get rid of Pei Lu's people and secretly control the entire Jiangnan?"

As soon as my hand tightened, the emerald leaf was opened by me, and I settled down and threw it to the ground with my hand.

"You're wrong." I secretly looked at it, "The future lord of the Qin country does not need to use means to control his territory, those officials deserve it, they are greedy for money and colluded first, why wonder the law is strict!" ”

Gu Yuancheng didn't argue with me out loud, in fact, there was no need for this, whether it was Cen Xi or Qin Guo, it didn't mean anything to him.

"As soon as there is new news from the Blood Alliance, I will send someone to inform you." Gu Yuancheng sat up suddenly, opened his eyes and stared at me, "So don't use your brains and get into trouble." ”

I was stunned for a moment, then I opened my eyes and said disdainfully, "I'm too lazy to bother with this." ”

"It better be." Gu Yuancheng looked away, got up and stood up, "You have to be the only one in your heart, and I don't have to think about how to save you." ”

I don't like to listen to what he said, snorted coldly, I stood up, looked directly at him, and said, "The big words are so smooth, and I'm not afraid of flashing my tongue!" If it ends up in the end, but I condescend to save you, wouldn't it be a big joke in the world? ”

"You can guess that Emperor Qin will send a team of envoys to our country, and you can guess that they will be waiting for you in Yongshan County, which is adjacent to Biancheng, but you will never guess what Emperor Qin is thinking. He didn't want you to come to Qinguo, so he threatened you with the position of prime minister, but long before you left to return to the capital, he had already handed over to His Majesty the roster of envoys sent to our country, and the first name on that roster was you. Gu Yuancheng took a few steps closer to me, and his deep and dark gaze locked my gaze tightly, "Shen Qingzhi, if your competitiveness is only for such a monarch, it is the real joke of the world." ”

My heart beat violently, I clenched my fists in my sleeves, and my face suddenly turned cold.

In fact, as early as when I was blind and recuperating in the Gongqin Mansion, I thought about the reason why Chen Kun called me the envoy of the Qin State, but every time I reached the last pass, I couldn't help but force myself to move my mind, I was afraid that the emperor would really play with me in applause as I guessed, but the fact that I had been trying to escape was still turned over by Gu Yuancheng and laid out naked in front of me.

I have to admit that I can't always see through some of the emperor's thoughts, but this kind of admission can only make me feel embarrassed.

"General Chen Kun was sent by you at the request of Emperor Qi, right?" I tried my best to suppress the confusion and fear in my heart, and looked up at him. 600

"Yes." He admitted.

I looked at him, suddenly let go of my fist, and smiled faintly, "Gu Yuancheng, I have lived in this red world for sixteen years, I don't care how many more sixteen years I can live, I only care if what I want to do can be completed, my emperor is the one who lent me strength after all." ”

Gu Yuancheng lowered his eyes, and the surging and tumbling look in his eyes was completely covered in an instant. He didn't look at me again, just went back to the bench and lay down, closing his eyes.

"Gu Yuancheng." I stood where I was, but my heart was in turmoil, and I didn't know what the road ahead was, "Thank you for letting Chen Kun wait for me outside the dense forest, otherwise I will definitely not have my life to return to Qinguo." ”

Gu Yuancheng didn't move, as if he hadn't heard what I said.

I know that not only am I confused about the future, but he has not been able to take his destiny into his own hands.

I sat back on the stone bench again, this time simply staring at the white clouds beyond the sky.

"Yuancheng, Qingzhi, I've been waiting for a long time, lunch is coming!" After about an hour, Li Dai finally walked from the cabin with a food plate and a smile on his face.

Li Dai is the emperor of a country, he brought food plates for me and Gu Yuancheng, and we can't be cheeky to continue to watch him busy, so they all stood up to help him serve dishes, set up bowls, and fill each wine glass with wine, at this time He Muxin also walked into the small pavilion with a plate of dishes, and the sweet taste of the meal spread in the deserted garden that was rarely populated, which was very coveted.

In fact, these meals are not delicacies from the mountains and seas, just some ordinary home-cooked dishes, because Li Dai and He Muxin are both prominent people, and they rarely do it themselves on weekdays, so these home-cooked dishes may not taste good, but they are such meals, and they taste different.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, the two of you are so harmonious and enviable on weekdays?" I looked at Empress Qi's gentle and shy movements, Emperor Qi's loving and caring look, and I felt awkward in my heart, and the words I said were a little sharp.

Originally, as soon as the words came out, I regretted it a little, but I didn't expect Emperor Qi's temper to be so good, not only did he not scold me for not knowing dignity and humility, but he smiled and served me a dish.

"Mu Xin is the woman I love the most in my life, and I am fortunate to have three lives, and the person she loves the most is also me." Li Dai took back his chopsticks and smiled at me, "This is God's favor for me, I should cherish it, cherish it, cherish it again." ”

I looked at his tender eyes, and I was slightly stunned.

I don't really believe that there is any true love in the world, because even relatives who are related by blood can push you into the abyss, let alone a person with a foreign surname who has nothing to do with you? But his eyes were so affectionate, and so deep and unquestionably firm, that I could almost conclude that he really loved the woman beside him, but there seemed to be some extreme sadness in his eyes.

I know that I will eventually be separated, but I can't let go of my sorrow.

Yes, I have already received news that Emperor Qi is suffering from a stubborn illness that cannot be cured at all.

Even if the love is deep, it is difficult to be white-headed.

"Husband, being able to hold hands with you is also the hardship of the three lives of a concubine." He Muxin's eyes were slightly red for some reason, and she had always been shy, but she took the initiative to wrap herself around Li Dai's waist and buried her quietly in his arms.

She may be crying, or she can only cry in her heart, Li Dai's every move, she can finally see through what he thinks.

"Ahem." Probably because the atmosphere was suddenly a little wrong, Gu Yuancheng immediately raised his hand and coughed lightly twice, "Your Majesty, Shen Xiang has come to our country from thousands of miles away, we should be well entertained, tomorrow's itinerary Weichen has already prepared an excerpt, please take a look." After speaking, he took out a fold from his sleeve and handed it to Li Dai.

Li Dai sighed deeply, let go of the person he loved, and reached out to take Gu Yuancheng's fold, but he didn't open it to look at it, but put it in front of me.

"This fold, you keep it for the time being, and when you finish lunch in a while, you can take it and discuss it with Yuancheng, if there is anything you want to play and watch, just mention it to Yuancheng." He said to me very gently.

I was surprised, but I had to immediately give up my hand to thank you, "Your Majesty is kind, I dare not be ashamed, Gu Xiangnai is the dragon and phoenix among the people, the itinerary he arranged, I should be satisfied, and I dare not ask for anything else." ”

Li Dai didn't speak, only smiled faintly.
