Chapter 129: Intending to get out of the city
"Although Gu Shangshu is involved in the harem, for the sake of his ignorance, I beg Your Majesty to deal with it according to the law, and not to take your resentment against Gu Yun on Gu Shangshu."
When Gu Yun did this kind of thing, she didn't know if she thought of today's result. Now she has no one to rely on behind her, and when she begs Su Yutian, she can only rely on her knees and beg desperately.
But her pitiful appearance is suitable for not falling on Su Yutian's heart. Gu Yun's deep affection for him, Su Yutian could see it, but when he thought of why she was so affectionate to him, it diluted the last trace of sympathy for her in Su Yutian's heart.
"According to the law of our dynasty, civil officials and harems give and receive privately, even if the crime is not death, they will be demoted to two levels. No matter how much you try to distinguish him and say that he doesn't know, the best thing you can get is that you don't have to be degraded elsewhere. ”
Looking at the woman in front of her, who used to be brightly dressed, now kneeling on the ground and constantly kowtowing and begging, her forehead has been worn out by the rough ground, and the half-dried blood stains are stuck to her forehead, looking so pitiful. And Su Yutian saw it in his eyes, and he didn't stir up half a ripple in his heart.
"What you're doing now is in vain. If you want to win anyone's sympathy, you don't have to. If I want to deal with the Gu family, you are the best place to start. ”
"Why does Your Majesty think so? My brother is loyal to His Majesty. Gu Yun raised her head, and when she saw it, the bloodstains were terrifying flowing from her forehead all the way to the tip of her nose, she didn't have time to guess, she only stared at Su Yutian tightly with a pair of unbelievable eyes.
"Loyalty?" As if he had heard something funny, Su Yutian completely ignored Gu Yun's pear blossom with rain, and his face was slightly distorted. "I'm afraid that your foolish brother, now I don't know whether to be loyal to me or to Li Wensong, the old thief."
"Li Shangshu? How dare he be such a timid and fearful person to go against His Majesty. Since she didn't know much about the things outside, and she wasn't very smart in the first place, Gu Yun couldn't understand what he meant by what he said.
"Why should I talk this nonsense to you, it's a waste of time." Su Yutian was simply laughed at by Gu Yun's stupidity, and directly made a final decision for her.
"In order to deal with the Gu family, I will spare your life for the time being, and in the future, you will be confined in this Chenglu Palace, and you are not allowed to step out of the palace gate." There was no time for her to mourn for others in silence, and hearing Su Yutian's arrangement, Gu Yun only felt that he was full of desolation.
"But it's thanks to you that I found the handle of the Gu family. After removing the Gu family's major trouble, Li Wensong was like removing his wings, and it was difficult to fly again. ”
Su Yutian said a few words, and Gu Yun listened to them all. Except for the words that dealt with him, Gu Yun didn't hear half a word about himself from his mouth.
Seeing Su Yutian raise his legs to leave, Gu Yun was a little unwilling, kneeling on the ground and looking up at him, his eyes full of hope to get his words with emotion.
"Your Majesty, if your concubine makes such a big mistake, doesn't Your Majesty have anything to say to your concubine?"
"It's just that the women in the harem do everything they can to compete for favor, what do you want me to say. The only thing I should have said is that since you have done it, you should be prepared not to want to step out of here again for the rest of your life. Su Yutian stopped, just looking at her inexplicably.
"The concubine didn't mean to ask His Majesty to reduce the punishment, she just wanted to listen to Your Majesty's heartfelt words." Even though Su Yutian's words had already caused Gu Yun's heart to be devastated, she was still unwilling.
"In the days when the concubines entered the palace, His Majesty has always taken special care of the concubines. If the concubine has done something stupid, will Your Majesty feel sorry? ”
"Unexpected, reasonable, why pity." Su Yutian understood what Gu Yun meant, so he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Her Gu family tried to ride on her head, but Gu Yun actually tried to think that she could be sincere to her, it was simply wishful thinking.
Just these few words completely wiped out the illusion in Gu Yun's heart. Gu Yun lowered his head, the ridicule on his face, I don't know if it was to himself or to Su Yutian.
It turned out that the love and sweetness were just to let my guard down. The original pet crown of the sixth palace just wanted to coax himself to do things for him obediently and envelop the Gu family.
Now, there is no need to care about the Gu family or himself, Su Yutian can naturally find an opportunity to kick them away, without any nostalgia, and there is no old love at all.
Gu Yun, who was desperate, lay on the ground weakly, watching the door of the Chenglu Hall slowly close and close the last bit of delusion in her heart about glory and wealth.
I never thought that after hovering for more than a day, it would be such an oolong thing. Su Yutian had no choice but to ask Xiao Quanzi to send someone to tell Su Jingye what had happened, and then immediately issued an order to write down all the arrangements for the Gu family and Yun Zhaoyi.
This is the case in the palace for the time being, Jiang Liuyu outside the palace gate has been waiting for him in the palace for two days, although the palace sent someone to say that everything is safe in Su Jingye, so that Jiang Liuyu does not have to worry about his safety, but it is urgent to go out of the city to purchase Yuzhi and treat poisoned people.
However, Yuzhi's shop was sealed, and he was also ordered not to leave the city, and Jiang Liuyu couldn't wait for Su Jingye to come back, so he thought about changing his disguise and going to the city gate to try his luck, maybe no one knew him yet.
After Xiaoyun heard about her arrangement, she agreed very much, and the master and servant found a cart on the street that had just finished selling vegetables. Jiang Liuyu saw that the vegetable seller was also honest, so he stopped him, and the two forcibly took him to the teahouse to drink tea.
"Two girls, what are you going to do? I'm going to have to wait to get home. "Well, the owner of the car is a half-hundred-year-old man with dark skin and a kind face.
At these times, because of the strict investigation of the Wushisan incident in the capital, the vegetable sellers could not enter and exit at will, and the fresh vegetables could not be sold, but they were afraid that their family would be hungry.
Jiang Liuyu couldn't bear it, so she took out two ingots of silver barley first, and persuaded with a smile, "Uncle, don't be afraid, I just want you to do me a favor and take me out of the city together." ”
"If you want to go out of the city to get checked, can't you? You ......" The old man suddenly stopped abruptly in the middle of his words, and for a while he was worried that she was the person to be arrested in the capital. But if he was wanted, he wouldn't sit in a teahouse and drink tea so blatantly.
After the old man denied himself, he saw that Jiang Liuyu in front of him was also a little beautiful, could it be that he was afraid that the guards at the city gate would use their power for personal gain, and he would not be rude to her?
Jiang Liuyu didn't know what direction he was thinking, but he only saw the uncle's eyes, and slowly became sympathetic.
"That's it, the little girl can go out and go, but I can't get this amount of money, so you can get some back." In the end, he has a simple life of farming all his life, and he stretched out his hand and pushed a silver ingot back. "It's just that you're dressed like this, and you don't look like a girl from our croppers."
Hearing the old man loosen his mouth, Jiang Liuyu was happy, and responded again and again, "Don't worry, uncle, I will change a set of clothes in a while, if someone finds out, the old man just says that he doesn't know me, I won't bother the old man tonight." ”
After a while, Jiang Liuyu specially asked the eldest lady in the city to buy a set of old clothes, remove all the hairpin rings on her head, and then bring a hat to cover her face.
If it weren't for the fear that a large number of people would attract attention, Xiaoyun would also want to follow along. But now Jiang Liuyu is alone, Xiaoyun is really not at ease, and secretly sent some more money to the big uncle of the board car, so that he can take care of Jiang Liuyu wholeheartedly after he goes out.
In addition, Xiao Yun was also worried about whether Jiang Liuyu would be bullied on the way to wait for the inspection, so he quietly hid behind the small vendors around the city gate, and arranged a carriage at the corner of the alley, and if an accident happened, he would immediately pull her and run.
There was already a long queue at the gate, and it wasn't just this gate, it was everywhere else. And Jiang Liuyu deliberately picked this place out, mainly because there were more people in Nancheng, and the inspection intensity was only afraid that it would be smaller.
After waiting for a long time, I finally arrived at my own place. Jiang Liuyu took a deep breath, pressed the hat down, and then shrunk his shoulders, waiting for the person to come to him.
Thinking that everything was going to go so smoothly, Jiang Liuyu suddenly heard a shout from the front.
"Alright, you all step down, now it's time for a shift." Listening to the voice, I felt very annoyed, this person was Qiu Shuren who came to trouble Jiang Liuyu two days ago.
At the same time, the guards who had just finished checking the person in front of Jiang Liuyu immediately let go and left. Jiang Liuyu raised his head helplessly, and it happened that he happened to meet Qiu Shuren face to face from afar.
Sensing that Qiu Shuren had indeed discovered his existence, Jiang Liuyu said goodbye to the old man of the cart, and deliberately moved two more steps to the side to distance himself from him. Then, Qiu Shuren noticed the strangeness here, strode up to Jiang Liuyu, and fanned off her hat.
"Sure enough, it's the princess, and the lower officials still think that they have recognized the wrong person?"
Hearing the surprised inhalation of a group of people around him, and looking at Qiu Shuren's ill-intentioned smile, Jiang Liuyu sorted out his mood and faced him head-on without changing his face.
"Hello Captain Qiu."
"If the lower officials are not mistaken, the princess should still be grounded in the capital, why do you want to resist the decree and sneak out now?" After Qiu Shuren fanned off her hat just now, he also drew out his short sword and split it in two, intending to intimidate Jiang Liuyu.
Jiang Liuyu was not frightened, but was indeed provoked. "I just changed my clothes and walked here, and by the way, I condoled the guards at the city gate, how dare I resist the order?"
"That's a good thing to say." Qiu Shuren sneered and looked down at her, holding the short sword tightly in his hand, ready to call someone to take Jiang Liuyu down at any time. "The princess said that she came to condole, why didn't she bring anything with her, and she didn't even have an attendant by her side."
