Chapter 309: Letters
Liu Wu lowered his head and couldn't help crying, Qingyun also felt that her nose was sour, and Jia Jinlu, who was keeping accounts with Zhang Yuzhu under the corridor not far away, also looked at this side, Zhang Yuzhu was even more stunned and even stopped his movements.
Caiping and Ninja Cao leaned together silently, looking at each other and smiling, the entire Lihua Palace inside and outside seemed to be shrouded in a warm sun, and everyone's hearts became extremely warm because of Gu Banqin's words.
Gu Banqin always felt that he had not slept very well in the past two days, Helian Hongyi had been away from the palace for three or four days, Gu Banqin still felt that he was not very adaptable, the most obvious feeling was that when he was sleeping, he was used to sleeping in Helian Hongyi's arms, and he was quite resistant at first, and felt uncomfortable hugging each other.
But Helian Hongyi is relatively strong in this regard, hugging him, but Gu Banqin is gradually inseparable from him.
At that time, when she left the Chu State, although she was accompanied by the Duan family, Gu Banqin didn't adapt much in the end, until he found her.
After getting up and freshening up, while having breakfast, Jia Jinlu ran in with a letter in his hand, Gu Banqin saw it, and showed a surprised expression on his face: "Is the emperor coming to the letter?" ”
Jia Jinlu originally wanted to present it to Gu Banqin, but after listening to Gu Banqin's question, he paused again and replied:
"Niangniang, it's not the emperor, it's you who asked me to send the letter from Chu Guolai, which I had been staring at in the Inner Court Division a few days ago, to Jiankang in the letter of state, so I was asked to bring it to me."
Gu Banqin then remembered that there was this stubble, before Helian Hongyi left the palace, what she was most worried about was the safety of the Duan family, and she kept Jia Jinlu staring at the Inner Court Division, Helian Hongyi explained to Wang Shun before leaving, if there is a letter from Chu State to Gu Banqin, just send it directly.
Gu Banqin put down the chopsticks, took the letter, opened it and read it, thinking it was Duan's, but after opening the letter, he found that it was not handwriting, and when he turned to the end, he saw that the payment was actually Chu Xiaocheng.
I wondered for a while, and when I looked at it from the beginning, Chu Xiaocheng wrote relatively simply, Gu Banqin's previous letter to the Duan family asked about some ways to detoxify, but Chu Xiaocheng did not reply to those, but said about the recent situation between him and the Duan family.
Gu Banqin learned from the letter that the Duan clan was attacked by assassins in the Chu State, and when he wrote the letter, he was out of danger, so that Gu Banqin should not worry, and the letter directly named the identity of the assassin, and the three words of the Miao Jiang clan jumped into Gu Banqin's eyes.
Closing the letter, Gu Banqin couldn't suppress her thoughts, the Duan clan was assassinated by the Miao Jiang clan, so what does this mean?
It means that Chu Yanzhang made a choice between her and the Miao Jiang clan's entry faction and decided to sacrifice the Duan clan, and as Helian Hongyi said, Chu Xiaocheng did not stand idly by, he saved the Duan clan in the dark, since he said that the Duan clan was out of danger, it should really be no big problem, otherwise Chu Xiaocheng would not be in the mood to exchange letters with Gu Banqin.
Thinking of this, Gu Banqin opened the letter again, looked back, Chu Xiaocheng also told Gu Banqin the details of the assassination of the Miao Jiang clan, and also reminded Gu Banqin and Helian Hongyi to be more careful, the assassination of the Miao Jiang clan will not be only aimed at the Duan family, Chu Yanzhang compromised with the Miao Jiang clan, if Helian Hongyi did not compromise, then the Miao Jiang clan would probably assassinate Helian Hongyi as well.
Gu Banqin's heart was pinched again, Helian Hongyi might be assassinated?
Gu Banqin remembered that he did say before leaving the palace that he was going to help the conservative faction of the Miao Jiang clan, and he should want to use his strength to fight, but the behavior of the WTO faction is very arrogant now, and it is quite desperate.
Jia Jinlu was stunned when he saw Gu Banqin's expression, and glanced at Liu Banqin, and then Liu Wu bent down and shouted softly in Gu Banqin's ear:
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Banqin came back to her senses, glanced at the catkins, she didn't have the heart to eat breakfast, she stood up and walked out, and the catkins hurriedly shouted: "Where are you going, it's useless for breakfast." ”
Breakfast couldn't pull Gu Banqin's heart back, she went directly to the study, ground the ink a little twice, took out a few blank pieces of paper, and began to write a reply to Chu Xiaocheng.
For Chu Xiaocheng, Gu Banqin didn't dare to believe it completely, she actually wanted to ask him if he could know the plans behind the Miao Jiang clan, and if he wanted to assassinate Helian Hongyi, when would he do it, but if these questions were asked, if Chu Xiaocheng didn't have bad intentions, he might still help Gu Banqin.
But as long as Chu Xiaocheng has the slightest ill heart towards Helian Hongyi, and Gu Banqin asks him these questions so unscrupulously, Chu Xiaocheng will know that Helian Hongyi is in danger outside the palace at this time, and when the time comes, if he does not help, but falls into the well, Helian Hongyi's situation will be even worse, so Gu Banqin waited for a while with a pen and did not write a word on the paper.
The heavens and men fought for a while before they began to put pen to paper, but the words written on the pen were all about Duan's injury.
Regarding the question of Helian Hongyi, there was no mention of it, Gu Banqin believed that the Miao Jiang clan assassinated the Duan clan and could be stopped and saved by Chu Xiaocheng, then Helian Hongyi would definitely be able to tide over the difficulties, Gu Banqin was willing to believe Helian Hongyi, and did not want to make trouble for Helian Hongyi by making his own cleverness.
After writing the reply, Gu Banqin sealed it and called Jia Jinlu to ask him to return it to Wang Shun, and asked Wang Shun to send it to her through official channels as soon as possible.
After Jia Jinlu went down, Gu Banqin returned to the dining room, but he felt a little unable to swallow because he was worried about Helian Hongyi.
I was a little dissatisfied with Helian Hongyi's fact that after he went out, he didn't know that he asked someone to send a letter back to keep him safe, thinking that after Helian Hongyi came back this time, he must talk to him about this problem.
He didn't know the mood of waiting for someone at home, if Gu Banqin didn't have a ball in his stomach, he really wanted to go out of the palace with Helian Hongyi, even if it was in danger, it would be two people involved in danger together, life and death together, it was better than being frightened and restless at home.
In a house in the capital of Chu State, Chu Xiaocheng received a reply from Gu Banqin, he was sitting in front of Duan's bed, took the letter, Duan's face has improved a lot after many days of cultivation, but he has a lot of bandages on his body, and he still has to rest in bed.
There was a soft pillow around her waist, which was specially cushioned for her after Chu Xiaocheng came, because she knew that Duan's was worried about Gu Banqin, so as soon as she received the letter, Chu Xiaocheng sent it to Duan.
Duan's hands were injured and he couldn't open the letter, so Chu Xiaocheng took care of it, opened Gu Banqin's letter, and read it from beginning to end.
Duan's eyes were a little red when he listened, because what Gu Banqin asked most in this letter was how Duan's was injured and how his injuries were, Duan's was a little reluctant to let her follow Helian Hongyi back to Daqi alone, but now listening to her daughter's letter and thinking of her delicate and innocent appearance, Duan's couldn't help but want to cry.
Chu Xiaocheng saw it and hurriedly said:
"Mother, don't cry, it's not good to turn around and hurt yourself."
Duan glanced at Chu Xiaocheng, the mother and son are now considered to be ice releases, when Duan left Chu Xiaocheng, he was already seven or eight years old, and he had a memory, and for so many years, he had not given up looking for Duan.
And Duan's has been hiding because of emotional problems, but blood is thicker than water, after the mother and son met, how could she be willing to leave again, a son and a daughter are her heart, and she is naturally more inclined to the weaker side.
The daughter is protected by Helian Hongyi, and the Duan family is very relieved, but there are a lot of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods around her son, and the only backer father is also a person who has nothing to talk about, she always has to stay and protect him, but she didn't expect that if something really happened, she still wanted her son to protect her.
"I'm fine. You don't know her, she's very squeamish on weekdays, and if no one takes care of her, it's not even a problem with life, even if it's a little smart, but ......"
Before Duan's words were finished, Chu Xiaocheng hurriedly comforted: "Mother, don't worry too much about her, I have been in contact with her, she is a playful person, she looks weak, but in fact, she is a little wolf dog behind her back, which is very powerful." She and Helian Hongyi, I think Helian Hongyi has suffered more, don't worry about her. ”
Chu Xiaocheng's words made Duan's cry and laugh, and after hesitating for a while, he wanted to tell Chu Xiaocheng the truth:
"She's actually your ......"
Without waiting for Duan to finish speaking, Chu Xiaocheng intercepted the words again: "I know, she is my own sister." ”
Duan was surprised, and Chu Xiaocheng explained: "I can't tell you how I feel, when I saw her for the first time, I thought she was my sister-in-law, but I just didn't tell you, you really don't know it." ”
Duan didn't know what to say, looking at Chu Xiaocheng, his expression was a little desolate, Chu Xiaocheng stretched out his hand and patted the back of Duan's hand:
"Don't think about it so much, father, not only did he not take you to heart, he is a naturally ruthless person, I am his son, I shouldn't have said this about him, but, there are some things you don't know, he may not be as good as a favored minister to me, I am the pioneer in the war or something, don't think that he cultivates me, he doesn't care about my life and death at all."
Regarding Chu Yanzhang's personality, the Duan family knows much more than Chu Xiaocheng, and it is precisely because he knows that he will be more sure of his intentions, and he will not come back for so many years.
Of course she knew that Chu Xiaocheng was not very happy with Chu Yanzhang, after all, if Chu Yanzhang was really good to him, how could he be so persistent in looking for her heartless mother?
Closing his eyes, Duan felt really tired.
Chu Xiaocheng didn't know what to say to comfort Duan, he lowered his head and read Gu Banqin's reply again, and suddenly let out a voice of surprise:
"Huh, weird."
Duan opened his eyes and looked at him, Chu Xiaocheng sent his heart to Duan and said to her:
"The content of Gu Banqin's letter is a bit strange."
