Chapter Twenty-Three: An Exclamation

Until I suddenly heard an exclamation: "Miss, be careful of dogs." ”

Out of nowhere, a black dog came and roared and rushed in the direction of Shen XVII.

Shen Qiqi was immediately frightened and pale, she subconsciously wanted to stretch out her legs and kick the dog out, but the moment her legs stepped out, she stopped.

She changed her posture and cried on the ground with her head covered.

Old General Gu's eyes were quick, and when he saw the opportunity, he directly raised his foot and kicked the black dog aside.

n The dog whined and fell directly into the pool on the side, Cui'e immediately walked up and helped Shen Qiqi, who was crying, up, "Miss, are you okay, Miss?" She was also frightened just now, she never expected the black dog in the yard to be so irritable, and she would pounce directly when she saw a living person.

Shen Seventeen's face was bloodless, crying wow, and he cried into tears in Cui'e's arms.

"Dog...... What a big dog...... It's scary.

Cui'e knew that this Miss Shen was not very good at braining, but she didn't expect that she was stupid to the point of being like a three-year-old child.

She had no choice but to pat Shen Seventeen's back vigorously, hoping to appease her.

Old General Gu looked at Shen Seventeen and Six Spirits, crying like a six- or seven-year-old child.

I couldn't help but sigh.

It seems to feel very regretful.

He left the garden with his hands behind his back.

It took Shen Qiqi a while to recover her strength, and let Cui'e help her stand up tremblingly.

Cui'e patted her on the back and said softly, "It's okay Miss, don't be afraid, let's go back to the room quickly." ”

Shen Qiqi snorted and nodded, and the snot let Cui'e help him go back with a handful of tears.

Gu Jinghuai came back from the palace, and after hearing such a turmoil, he took the lead in visiting Shen Seventeen.

Shen Qiqi had just eaten something and was lying on the bed, when she saw Gu Jinghuai coming, she showed her head from the quilt, her eyes were red, like a little rabbit.

Gu Jinghuai smiled and dragged her out of the bed.

"Why, wolves are not afraid of being scared like this by dogs?" Shen Seventeen's eyes were a little swollen and seemed to be a little frightened.

"Dog...... Dogs bite people......" "Wolves don't bite?" Shen Qiqi bit his lip and stopped talking.

Gu Jinghuai hugged her in his arms, "Okay, it's okay, don't cry, get up, did you eat enough just now, are you still hungry?" He had just come back from the banquet, and he still smelled of wine, and Shen Qiqi subconsciously turned his face away when he approached him.

She hated the smell of him at this time.

Gu Jinghuai also realized that he was disgusted, and hurriedly let go of Shen Seventeen.

He gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Qiqi, smiling: "You wait for me here, I'll take a shower and change clothes." ”

Shen Qiqi rolled over, lay on the bed, leaned his back against Gu Jinghuai, and didn't say a word.

Gu Jinghuai left his room, feeling unhappy in his heart, he went out and asked the guard, "Where is the mad dog?" ”

The guard lowered his head and said resignedly: "General Hui, it has been disposed of." ”

Gu Jinghuai felt that something was wrong: "How could that good dog go crazy?" The guard also felt inexplicable: "I don't know, maybe it's the old general's courtyard that hasn't seen anyone for a long time, so I suddenly saw a living person, and I started the heart of the realm." ”

There is some truth in this, the dog raised by the old general is really not an ordinary dog, and his personality is also extremely violent.

After Gu Jinghuai washed up, he felt that it was a little inappropriate to go to Shen Qiqi now, and he saw that it was getting late.

He asked his subordinates to send something to Shen Seventeen, and went to the old general's room alone.

The old general had just prepared the dinner for the evening, and Gu Jinghuai came here.

Their grandparents and grandchildren had little to do at the dinner table.

Although Gu Jinghuai was sent to the mountain since he was a child and lived under the wolf's mouth for a few years, after joining the army with his father, the old general didn't care much about Gu Jinghuai.

Seeing Gu Jinghuai coming, the old general was still pulling the rice in the bowl, and the housekeeper Fu Bo saw Gu Jinghuai coming, prepared a stool opposite the old general, and served him another bowl of rice.

Taking the chopsticks, Gu Jinghuai was about to feast, when the old general suddenly spoke, "This time I returned to Beijing, the movement is too big, you should be careful of causing trouble." ”

Gu Jinghuai naturally understood what he meant, but he was not afraid of shadows, so he naturally wouldn't take those gossips seriously.

"The emperor is aware of everything, and naturally understands that it is a dark operation of some people, and we don't have to take it to heart."

Veteran, the army now has limited energy, and he doesn't want to get involved in too many things in the court, Gu Jinghuai now holds the military power, which naturally attracts the jealousy of others, and if you want to settle down, you must know how to hide your edge...

"You are very smart to be free, you don't need me to mention these things, just grasp the balance yourself.

"Yes!!" Gu Jinghuai nodded respectfully, the grandfather and grandson didn't have too many words, but the veteran and the army still had something to say.

After all, a woman is just a woman, he doesn't want his grandson to be followed by a mentally imperfect woman, but Gu Jinghuai is not close to women, and the Gu family is thin, if he intervenes too much, Gu Jinghuai doesn't even want that stupid woman, then it will be more than worth the loss.

So those words could only be hidden in the hearts of the veterans and soldiers, and they were never said again.

Gu Jinghuai accompanied his grandfather to finish eating, and walked back alone.

On the second day, news came from the palace, saying that the emperor had not seen the veteran for a long time, and the army specially sent someone to find the veteran, and the army entered the palace to reminisce about the past.

, veteran, since he withdrew from the court, the army has almost cut off all contact with the palace, but since he heard the emperor's message, he can't resist the decree.

On the second day, the emperor prepared a palanquin and asked Fubo to follow a few guards to escort him into the palace.

As soon as he entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and whenever he walked through the majestic palace gate, he still felt a little emotional.

After a few years, the current Ninety-Five Zun doesn't know what happened.

Under the guidance of the eunuch, he walked to the side hall of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

The heavy wooden door is only guarded by a guard, and the sycamore in front of the hall is bleak, and soon the palace people will brush it off, and it will be clean and not cause a trace of dust.

The eunuch stood outside the door and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"Veteran, the army is still strong, the emperor has been waiting for a long time, please veteran, the army will follow me in." Su Zhengtian's tone seemed to be flattering, but looking at Gu Zhengxiong's eyes, it was still not very respectful.

Veteran, Jun has always thought that eunuchs are rootless things, and they are not men, even if they are the big eunuchs around the emperor, they cannot escape his contempt.

So he looked down on Su Zhengtian, Su Zhengtian saw that he was old, and he was no longer the general who was dominant, and he didn't take him very seriously.

After the two of them despised each other in front of the hall, Su Zhengtian opened the door for the veteran general Gu and the army.

The veteran, the army walked in with his head held high.

The moment the door was closed, a faint light flashed in Su Zhengtian's eyes, but it was fleeting and difficult to detect.

In the side hall, the light was dim, and the subtle light was cast in through the cracks in the windows, so that the veteran generals and soldiers could barely see the emperor's face.

At this time, the emperor was sitting at his desk, holding a stove in his arms, he had been very cold recently, so he had already used the stove.

Although it seems that the inside of this house is not seeing the light of day, it is very stuffy when the stove is burned.

The veteran general, Jun stood there slightly, beads of sweat on his forehead, but his expression was tenacious, and he still looked ahead.

I haven't seen him for a few years, but the emperor seems to be in his twenties, silver threads appear from the corners of his forehead, and his cheeks are bloated, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the pair of eyes, which are still very wide.

"The old minister has seen the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

The emperor just glanced at him lightly, waved his hand and said, "Senior General Gu, the army doesn't need to be polite, get up quickly." ”

"The minister wrote to the emperor."

"After a few years, veteran Gu, the army has been in good health recently?" Veteran General Gu and Jun nodded respectfully: "The minister thanks the emperor for his concern, and the minister is fine." ”

The emperor's swollen eyes closed slightly, "General Gu is young and promising, commanding the four armies, and his contribution is indispensable, he is really a pillar of the country, a veteran, and the army has a good teaching, and it is really the glory of my Chu country." ”

The veteran general, the army respectfully clenched his fists: "The emperor praises falsely, and the ministers dare not be ashamed." ”
