The much-loved county lord of the Chang Dynasty seemed to have long been accustomed to such gifts, but he still hid them properly and recognized Gu Yanchao as a "friend".

Gu Yanchao's fate will be more miserable.

The piece of treasure jade given to Wu Zixi was his mother's only net worth, and his friendship with the county lord of the Chang Dynasty was known to King Hu, and after he was beaten, he kept silent about the fact that he had been to Huaguo, and even refused to interact with anyone again. Except for Lin Haiyan, who is somewhat similar to Wu Zixi, Gu Yanchao can occasionally deceive himself and imagine that he has never left Huaguo.

But the temperaments of the two are completely different, Wu Zixi is willing to have a good chat with the palace servants, but Lin Haiyan will smash the entire set of tea sets because the palace people who make tea for him are "inferior palace maids", trying to be "clean".

It wasn't until a few years later that Gu Yanchao invited himself to go to Huaguo to do eyeliner, and since then he has changed his identity, gained fame, and entered the dynasty to become the most trusted minister of the old emperor.

And then it was the day of great sorrow and joy for Gu Yanchao.

I am happy that he finally became a husband and wife with Wu Zixi, and he was able to lift the curtain hanging on Wu Zixi's phoenix crown, and he was sad that the concubine was out of his control, so that he had Wu Zixi contrary to what he wanted, but he really lost Wu Zixi because of the anxiety in his heart that he was afraid of losing.

Gu Yanchao doesn't mind Wu Zixi hating him, the monarchs of the two countries don't want to bite each other's bones, such a deep hatred, Gu Yanchao didn't expect Wu Zixi to ignore it at all, all he thought about was how to keep Wu Zixi by his side justifiably and not allow her to escape.

But what Wu Zixi said is not bad, she is just a "thing" in Gu Yanchao's eyes, no matter where he goes, he will take his things with him.

Maybe he will get tired of Wushi one day, but he can't accept Wushi leaving on his own, let alone into the hands of others.

Gu Yanchao originally wanted to wait for an opportunity to kill Lin Haiyan and replace him with Wu Zixi, there are many similarities in the appearance of the two, and if they do some tricks, Gu Yanchao is very confident that he can make everyone believe all this. At that time, Wu Zixi will have the identity of being able to stay by his side "justifiably".

I don't want to, this plan was messed up because of Wu Zixi's solitary behavior.

Lin Haiyan's begging for mercy pulled back Gu Yanchao's thoughts, due to excessive blood loss, Lin Haiyan's whole person had already knelt on the ground, prostrate at Gu Yanchao's feet, hugging Gu Yanchao's thigh and whispering: "Brother Yanchao, I will definitely be very obedient in the future, don't leave me, please ......"

This direction was something that Xiang Yeqi never expected.

Gu Yanchao snorted coldly, and actually raised his foot to kick Lin Haiyan into the sea of fire, and said, "If she has something to do today, you will accompany her to the funeral." You have no role in this temple."

Lin Haiyan's piercing scream reached everyone's ears as scheduled, and Xiang Yeyan couldn't bear to listen to it anymore, so he had to sigh: "Bo Zhaoxu, let's go first." ”

Before the pouring rain arrived, Gu Yanchao opened the paper umbrella pushed by the Gu guards, jumped off the broken tiles that had been burned by the fire, and searched for Wu Zixi's traces or Wu Zixi's body in despair.

But he didn't understand why Wu Zixi was so cruel, he didn't even leave a corpse, and he didn't even leave anything that could be remembered for him.

The Gu family's guards were worried when they saw that their master had lost his mind, but they were pushed away one by one by Gu Yanchao with disgust, and commanded loudly: "Search!" Search for the main hall! The main hall doesn't believe that she can be burned down by a fire, and there is nothing left! ”

After returning to his residence in the Western Xia Palace, Xiang Yeqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he was seriously injured, Wu Zixi's breath was still there, and he could still be called "safe".

This time, it was still the female imperial doctor who had a good impression of Xiang Yeqi, and her voice was soft and flat, and Xiang Yeqi would feel more at ease when she heard it.

The female imperial physician applied a layer of medicinal powder to Wu Zixi's burns, and felt a little regretful: "The burns can be suppressed, but it shouldn't be able to return to its original appearance." The minister has just checked, and His Royal Highness's friend has not woken up for a long time, probably because there is too much smoke inhaled, and it will take some time, probably more than a day or two. ”

Wu Zixi's appearance was once among the best in the capital of China.

This taste of intensive care really made Xiang Yeyan hate Gu Yanchao very much.

"I see."

Xiang Yeqi tiredly pressed the corner of his forehead to ease the tiredness of not resting for a few days, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, no matter what...... It's good that people are okay. ”

The female imperial physician nodded in agreement, as if she didn't want to disturb Wu Zixi's moment of recuperation, so she took Xiang Yeqi to the corner: "The minister heard that His Royal Highness will leave for China in the near future, and I don't know when I will see you again, and there are really some things in my heart that I can't let go." ”

"That's the case, what's the matter that adults can't let go? Is it related to me? ”

The itinerary arranged by Xiang Yeqi and Bo Zhaoxu was to return to Huaguo in three days, and it was just right to bring Wu Zixi back to settle down together.

The reason is nothing more than that Bo Zhaoxu and Qiu Ming are playing a big game of chess, so Shi Gu Yanchao is also in the capital of Western Xia, and there are many inconveniences in acting, not to mention that although Bo Zhaoxu is now holding a talisman, after all, he has not succeeded to the throne, and there are always many things that are not so convenient to do.

The female imperial physician said gently: "Today is the day when the prime minister of the previous dynasty went to the execution ground. ”

"Is it today?"

Xiang Yeqi smiled helplessly, the prime minister of Western Xia was convicted by Qiu Ming because he was useless, and even the day of asking for beheading was finalized early, but Xiang Yeqian was so busy with Wu Zixi's affairs that he couldn't remember when he would ask the prime minister of Western Xia. Now that I hear it, I just feel that he is innocent of death.

There are countless women who have died tragically at his hands, and he has found a happy one, which is really ironic.

"Hmm."

The female imperial physician replied lightly and said, "Mother-in-law's time should be running out, and the minister sees that she is very close to Her Highness for some reason." ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiang Yeqi understood most of them.

Out of respect, Mojo could have been called the queen, but the title was too ironic for her, like a taunt that hurt people without blinking. Therefore, the only Xiang Yeqi and the female imperial physician who have some connection with Mo Qiao in the second half of their lives only call her mother-in-law.

The female imperial physician probably wanted Xiang Yeqi to stay by Mo Qiao's side, so that she could walk more comfortably.

Xiang Yeqi responded indifferently and went to the side hall where Moqiao was housed with the female imperial doctor.

Most of the people can be seen from their faces, Rao is between the two countries, Mo Qiao can be regarded as one of the best longevity, but she can live a long life with a body full of illness, most of which is because of the best supplements collected by the monarch of Western Xia to nourish Mo Qiao's body.

Now that the supplements of the Western Xia monarch have been cut off, Mo Qiao's expression is not as good as day by day.

There are still a lot of supplements left by the Western Xia monarch in the Western Xia treasury, Qiu Ming is unwilling to be greedy for these millimeters, and second, he thinks that the things left by the old things are too dirty, and he wants to leave them all to Mo Qiao to continue to make up for his body. But the female physician repeatedly reminded that forcibly pulling back Moqiao's life would only increase her pain.

The matter had to be left at that.

It was difficult for Mo Qiao to even get up at this time, and when Xiang Yeqi sat on the edge of the bed, Mo Qiao's painful face finally revealed a trace of peace, and said weakly: "Sister." ”

For the first time, Xiang Yeqi answered Moqiao's words: "I'm here." ”

Mo Qiao smiled calmly, and the light in his eyes faded: "I've been waiting for you for many years, waiting for you to pick me up and take me home, waiting for you to take me to the Lantern Festival, I've been waiting for a long time." ”

The female imperial physician understood the "clear instructions" from the eyes of Xiang Yeqi, and intensively led people to arrange the dim side hall, closed the curtains, and hung strings of round lanterns one after another, as a lantern festival in the prosperous world.

Most of the palace people outside the palace didn't know why they were busy, but they still listened to the request of the female imperial doctor, and learned to sell the street vendors wandering around the lamp market, and there was a different kind of liveliness.

Mojo's eyes couldn't see much more clearly, as if a white veil had been covered in front of him.

She reluctantly took Xiang Ye's hand and whispered with a hidden smile: "Sister, I know you are here to pick me up, and I am going to die, right?" ”

Xiang Yeqi didn't speak, and she and the female imperial doctor had indescribable feelings.

Seeing the time when the Western Xia Prime Minister asked for beheading, Xiang Ye's heart felt even stronger.

Moqiao muttered something so good, and when Xiang Yeqi wanted to comfort her, Moqiao had already closed his eyes with tears in the corners of his eyes, so relieved.

The female imperial physician sighed very regretfully: "If my mother-in-law is twenty years younger, she should be able to live a normal life for ten or twenty years, but it's a pity that it's ......."

She was a little helpless.

Mo Qiao's whole life was a debt owed by the monarch of Western Xia, and her future affairs should also be handled by the Western Xia royal family, so Xiang Yeqi did not interfere.

However, the female imperial physician carefully summoned Xiang Yeqi to the corner, and was very concerned: "The minister has the courage to ask, after returning to the country this time, His Royal Highness will ascend the throne and succeed to the throne." ”

Xiang Yeqi didn't think that this female imperial doctor would be so concerned about her own affairs, and responded: "Not bad." ”

The female imperial physician stopped talking for a while, and finally opened her mouth hesitantly: "I have seen the matter of Granny Mo, Your Highness, can you still assist the Fourth Highness to the throne without any worries?" People always have to change, and the right to conquer the country can turn people beyond recognition, at that time, if Your Highness wants to regret it, where is the way out? ”

Xiang Yeqi has never been good at dealing with such sudden concerns, let alone such a way of persuading himself that "it's too late to run away now".

It's a little dumbfounded.

"The minister has no intention of offending His Highness."

The female imperial physician leaned over and saluted Ye Yan together, and persuaded Xiang Ye Yan not to turn back: "The four highnesses are human beings, and the ministers don't understand them, so they are indeed a good match for their highnesses now, but what will they look like after that?" Although the minister is young, he has been in the palace for ten years, and he has really seen too many unsatisfactory mothers, and when he enters the palace gate, he is afraid that there is really no room for retreat, and everything is not as free as a free body. ”

Xiang Yeyan suddenly understood what the female imperial doctor wanted to remind himself of after going around the bend, because he was afraid that Bo Zhaoxu would be dazzled by power, and finally fall into the well for himself, so that he would also die miserably and be free for the rest of his life.
