Chapter 622: Persuasion
Dongfang He's family didn't know anything, and when they were suddenly approached by someone, they were very panicked, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
They tried to ask the Imperial Guards what Dongfang He had committed, but received no response. In the end, the Imperial Forest Army saw that there was indeed no trace of Dongfang He, and the people of the Dongfang family did not seem to have the courage to conceal it, so they had to give up.
From the departure of the Imperial Forest Army to the present, the people of the Dongfang family are very frightened. One is worried about Dongfang He's personal safety, and he is panicked because he doesn't know what mistakes Dongfang He has made.
Now that they finally see people, most of the stones in their hearts have fallen to the ground. In any case, at least the people are now safe and sound in front of them.
"Dad, mother, I'm sorry for worrying you. But I did this for a reason, the emperor of Lanling Kingdom careless about people's lives, and it was the princess who helped the people escape...... That's what happened, I don't think there's anything wrong with what I did, and I ask my parents to understand. ”
Because of his own unauthorized decision-making, he caused trouble to his family and made his family worry about themselves. Dongfang He felt very unhappy, but he still did not regret his actions, and always thought that he was right to do so.
"I see, of course my father and mother can understand you. What's more, even if there are no such things, as people from Nanyue, how can we not save the princess when we see that the princess is in trouble? Just now, the grass people were stupid and didn't recognize the princess, and I ask the princess to forgive me! ”
After Dongfang He's family heard this, they sighed in their hearts. Thinking of their other son, their hatred for Shen Mengxian increased even more. However, they did not bring up this matter, after all, it was their family matter, and it was not enough for outsiders. If Dongfang He hadn't brought it up, they really hadn't noticed the girl standing next to him.
From the beginning of entering the door, their eyes were on Dongfang He. Now he suddenly turned his head to identify the woman in front of him, and found that what Dongfang He said was true, this woman was the former princess of Nanyue Kingdom, and even the later emperor......
"You guys are so polite, this time thanks to Dongfang He for saving me. What's more, we are now in Lanling Country, everyone is equal, you don't need to look up to me! ”
Gu Xiqian smiled, she had never cared much about these red tapes. What's more, even if you pay attention to your identity, you have to look at the environment you are in. Like now, it's hard to protect yourself, and you don't care about what status you don't have.
"Thank you, princess, for coming to us, don't be burdened, just make this your home. The Guards are still looking for you now, so it's better to be careful. We'll find a time to help the princess get out of here, too! ”
Dongfang He's family is very pleased with Gu Xiqian's attitude, since ancient times, who is not arrogant in this imperial family? Now that they feel Gu Xiqian's gentleness, they feel much better.
"Thank you very much, I can't show my face outside just yet. So there is no way to find out the news, so I need you to go outside to help me understand the situation, and then I will judge what to do next according to the actual situation? ”
Gu Xiqian was very grateful in her heart, and the person in front of her had no obligation to help her. They spontaneously helped themselves, even at the cost of putting themselves in danger, and she remembered this friendship.
After listening to Gu Xiqian's arrangement, Dongfang He's family did not dare to slack off at all. Soon went out to understand the situation outside, and wanted to bring the news back to Gu Xiqian as soon as possible.
"Princess, we've walked outside. If you find that there are no people from the government looking for someone outside, will they have given up? ”
Dongfang He's family quickly brought the news back, and because Dongfang He didn't show up, they didn't even dare to go out of their house. Now they have a heavy responsibility on their shoulders, and they can only pretend to go out to buy things.
I thought that there would be a lot of officers and soldiers looking for people in the streets and alleys, after all, the person they were looking for was now in his own home. However, they found themselves very wrong.
Not to mention a large number of officers and soldiers, not even a single person wearing soldiers' clothes did not appear. The bazaar was no different from before, and people chatting about gossip had no important value, and Dongfang He's family found it boring and soon returned.
"There are no more officers and soldiers on the streets? This is not like Shen Mengxian's style, I thought that if he didn't catch me, it would be impossible to give up. Will definitely increase the number of people until they find me. Why did there be no movement so quickly this time, could there be some conspiracy? ”
Gu Xiqian also felt very surprised after hearing this, the previous experiences made her know Shen Mengxian's style very well. Like now, it is really strange to give up before she has found her, and people can't help but wonder if Shen Mengxian wants to play some tricks again?
"If you gave up looking for you so easily, why did you let us look for so long under the cliff before? Shen Mengxian is doing things more and more incomprehensibly now, since this Taoist priest appeared, he doesn't seem to be normal! ”
Dongfang He also felt very incomprehensible, Shen Mengxian attached great importance to Gu Xiqian, but he had learned it. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to go to such a great deal of trouble before, and now that it is like this, who knows what tricks he is thinking in his heart?
"Whatever, anyway, there are no officers and soldiers on the street now. The most important thing for us now is to keep the princess safe and get her out of here! ”
Dongfang He's family didn't want to think about what conspiracy Shen Mengxian was up to, they just wanted to send Gu Xiqian away as soon as possible. As long as people are safe and leave from here, it doesn't matter how many means Shen Mengxian has!
"It's not hard to leave, I can change my appearance, even if I pass by them, they probably won't recognize me. But before I leave, I have one more plan. Since you've lost your job because of me, I think I should compensate you. I just don't know if you have any plans to work in another place? ”
Gu Xiqian is still very confident that she can leave here safely. She had learned two tricks from the woman in the flower house before, and now she could use them. It's just that Dongfang He is indeed a talent, and this time he lost his original errand because he saved himself. was even in danger, and Gu Xiqian felt that she should make up for it.
"Princess, what do you mean by that? Doesn't working in another place mean leaving here? Then I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, the reason why I stayed in Lanling Country is because I have no choice but to leave, I have no intention of leaving until the matter is settled! ”
Dongfang He understood what Gu Xiqian meant, but he couldn't leave Lanling Kingdom. He has a sea of blood on his shoulders, and it is impossible for him to leave without revenge!
Gu Xiqian's eyes stared at Dongfang He, wanting to see through his heart. But failed, a person like Dongfang He is very thoughtful, and it is difficult to guess. Gu Xiqian looked at Dongfang He's family again, and found that they looked embarrassed and even a little painful.
This made Gu Xiqian very puzzled, could it be that they still had any secrets? So much so that he was desperate in Lanling Kingdom, and he was still unwilling to change places!
"I would venture to ask, what is there that you haven't solved yet? If I could, maybe I could help. ”
Gu Xiqian was still unwilling to give up his ideas, a person like Dongfang He, just being a royal forest army in Lanling Country, was really a bit condescending. He should have a better future, and there was no need to delay here for the rest of his life.
"This ...... No one else can help with this except ourselves. My elder brother Dongfang Yi used to be a strategist for Shen Mengxian, but he was killed later, and the reason why I stayed here was to avenge him. As long as I don't succeed in avenging him for a day, I won't have peace for a day! ”
Dongfang He was a little hesitant, he turned his head to look at his family. In the end, they decided to tell Gu Xiqian the truth, which was originally a secret of their family. Now that Gu Xiqian asked, and it was under the premise that the other party intended to help him, if he didn't tell the truth, he seemed to be a little sorry for Gu Xiqian.
"I see, I'm sorry for making you sad. But since that's the case, I recommend that you go to Yunnan to do things. You should know very well that if you continue to stay in Lanling Country, let alone avenge your brother, I'm afraid that even your own livelihood will be a problem. But wouldn't it be better if you listened to me and went to Yunnan, not only could you display your ambitions, but when you became famous, you would turn your head and avenge your brother? ”
Only then did Gu Xiqian understand, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for Dongfang Yi in her heart. Last time, as his master, Dongfang Yi was not only highly knowledgeable and strategic, but also worthy of praise in terms of personality. Unexpectedly, in this life, he actually became Shen Mengxian's strategist, and was even killed.
Dongfang He always remembers that it is good to avenge Dongfang Yi, but he is also a living person, not a weapon of revenge. If you have a choice, why not prioritize your own life?
"The princess is right, He'er, I have really suffered you for so many years. Why don't you follow what the princess said and go to Yunnan first. Daddy believes in your abilities, and one day, you will definitely avenge your brother! ”
After Gu Xiqian finished speaking, Dongfang He lowered his head and was silent, as if he was thinking about what he should do next. Dongfang He's family stood aside, their faces were embarrassed, and people would always be embarrassed when making choices
However, in the end, his family still stood up and made a decision for Dongfang He. They must not feel good in their hearts, and they don't want to watch Dongfang He continue to live like this. Now that there is such a good opportunity in front of them, of course, to make the right choice. A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late!
