Chapter 50: Isolation from the World
Gu Zheng didn't know how Cen Wuniang betrayed her, and how she was retributed in the end. She only came to the courtyard less and less often from Zhao Hong, and every time she came, she became more and more irritable, and vaguely deduced that the Yuwang family should have been counterattacked, and she couldn't help but secretly feel happy in her heartβββ Yuwang family was frustrated, which means that Liang Jingxian moved to the rescue and beat Yuwang's men and horses to the ground!
Gu Zheng was convinced that Liang Jingxian would definitely come to save her as soon as he rushed back to Thorn Prefecture, so when the news of King Yu's defeat came outside, Gu Zheng couldn't stop being excited in her heart, and she even began to secretly pray that Zhao Hongyue was too busy retreating and escaping to take care of her......
Unexpectedly, when Gu Zheng was waiting for Liang Jingxian to come to the rescue with infinite expectations, Zhao Hongyue, who was in a mess, rushed to the other courtyard with the rest of the department, and as soon as they met, he directly asked the people around Gu Zheng to pack up their things: "Immediately pack some necessary supplies for me, we have to leave here!" β
Gu Zheng could only pretend to be puzzled and asked, "Leave here?" Where are you going to take me? β
Gu Zheng's inquiry made Zhao Hongyue's face "color" "brush" sink, and he was a little scary in a moment, he didn't want to preface the defeat of King Yu and his family in front of Gu Zheng, and didn't want Gu Zheng to know his failure, so he actually said to Gu Zheng in a bad tone: "What do you do when you ask so much?" I'll let you go, and the rest is not for you to ask. β
Gu Zheng had already guessed in his heart that the current situation should be very unfavorable to Zhao Hongyue, and he also knew that Zhao Hongyue was going to retreat...... She didn't want to be taken away by Zhao Hongyue like this!
Therefore, even though Zhao Hongyue's face was 'gloomy' and his tone was 'gloomy', Gu Zheng still calmly said what he wanted to say: "You promised me that you wouldn't 'force' me, and you promised that I would respect me, but now I just ask where we are going, so you lose your temper?" That's how you respect people? β
Zhao Hongyue was a proud and conceited person since he began, he never thought that the defeat would come so quickly after raising the army! Seeing Gu Zheng's stubborn pursuit of the truth, he subconsciously grabbed Gu Zheng's shoulder and complained: "It's because they are too stupid to make good use of the weapons I invented, and I will be defeated!" β
"That's right, it's they who dragged me back, and they hindered my hegemony," Zhao Hongyue said that in the end, his emotions were already a little 'agitated', and he shook Gu Zheng's shoulder uncontrollably: "You understand me, right?" You know that I have the real ability to achieve hegemony, right? People don't know where I came from, you knowβββ I have the knowledge they don't have, I can invent advanced, powerful weapons, how can all these things make me fail?! β
Gu Zheng's shoulders were shaken vigorously by Zhao Hongyue, so that she had to hold her stomach with both hands, but even so, her stomach still felt uncomfortable because of Zhao Hongyue's shaking, her face turned pale in an instant, and beads of sweat the size of beans continued to ooze out on her forehead, but she could only grit her teeth to endure the discomfort from her stomach, and shouted at Zhao Hongyue in a dumb voice: "You sober me up!" Failure is failure, don't put the blame on others! β
Zhao Hongyue still refused to accept the fact of defeat, and roared angrily with red eyes: "No! I'm not going to fail! After yelling, he pushed Gu Zheng away, but fortunately, Gu Zheng was behind the soft couch, and Zhao Hongyue didn't push her out.
Zhao Hongyue gradually came to his senses after pushing Gu Zheng, and saw Gu Zheng holding his stomach in pain, so he panicked and stepped forward to hold Gu Zheng: "How are you?" Does it matter? I'm going to get the doctor! β
"No need, I'm fine, just slow down." Gu Zheng was half-lying on the soft couch and gently 'rubbed' his stomach.
Zhao Hongyue looked at Gu Zheng with a nervous face, at this moment he realized that he was so nervous and cared about Gu Zheng in his heart, and found that he really liked Gu Zhengβββ this kind of liking has nothing to do with conquest and origin, it is a liking from the heart, the kind of liking that can even make him abandon everything for her!
After Zhao Hongyue found out that he really liked Gu Zheng, his obsession with Gu Zheng became stronger and stronger, so strong that he let go of his pride and no longer stick to his promise to Gu Zheng: "I regret it, I don't want to wait for you to slowly like me, I want to take you away now, whether you love me or not, I want you to belong to me forever!" β
Zhao Hongyue seemed to have made up his mind, and after saying this, he called people in without waiting for Gu Zheng to speak, let them help Gu Zheng into the carriage, and forced Gu Zheng to retreat to the south with him and the rest of the army, Gu Zheng couldn't resist, so he could only be forced to follow Zhao Hongyue and his party to retreat south.
Zhao Hongyue took this opportunity to find Gu Zheng and bluntly expressed his heart to her: "I think I have really fallen in love with you, my love for you makes me want to get your heart by any means, this obsession almost makes me go crazy!" β
Gu Zheng looked at Zhao Hongyue quietly, and cruelly pointed out a fact: "You are now a lost dog, how can you give me happiness?" If you love me, let me go. β
"I'm not going to fail forever, I'm going to make a comeback soon!" Zhao Hongyue swore to the sky, and to Gu Zheng's surprise, he said to her: "I really love you to the point of going crazy, really, I said to myself that as long as you are willing to be by my side for the rest of your life, I don't mind that you are pregnant with Liang Jingxian's child in your belly, and I can even treat him as my own flesh and blood!" β
Zhao Hongyue's words made Gu Zheng look at him in shock and disbelief, and then immediately had a plan, and decided to use Zhao Hongyue's heart to keep the child in his belly: "If you don't hurt the child in my womb and let me give birth to the child safely and smoothly, I will promise to be with you......"
In order not to make Zhao Hong more suspicious, Gu Zheng deliberately added in a sincere tone: "Of course, I can't fall in love with you immediately, immediately, even if I am willing to say that I am already in love with you against my will, I don't think you will believe it, right?" I still say that the relationship between men and women must be cultivated slowly and step by step, and you should understand the truth of love over time. β
Zhao Hongyue saw that Gu Zheng was willing to stay by his side and try to be with him, so he agreed to Gu Zheng's request without hesitation: "Okay, then we will make up our minds, I will protect you to give birth to the child safely and smoothly, and you will never leave my side from now on!" β
So Gu Zheng reached an agreement with Zhao Hongyue, and followed him all the way to the south, Zhao Hongyue also kept his promise, took good care of Gu Zheng, a pregnant woman, all the way, and thought about the child in her womb everywhere.
However, Gu Zheng had already dealt with it in her heart, so after a few days of bumpy riding in the carriage, she made a look that she couldn't hold on anymore and said to Zhao Hongyue: "I am now a month old, and I may start production anytime and anywhere, I really can't stand the rush of days, I hope you can really think about me and the child in my womb, and think of a way to solve this problem." β
Zhao Hongyue is now fleeing with ugly words, how can he easily solve Gu Zheng's problem?
As soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, he frowned, and he couldn't think of a proper way......
Seeing this, Gu Zheng took the opportunity to take the initiative to propose: "Why don't you take me to a certain place for the time being, and then come back to pick me up when you achieve great things?" I've been bumped by the carriage every day for the past few days, and I really can't follow you all the way anymore, and you don't want me to die before I follow you to enjoy happiness, right? β
Gu Zheng thought to herself that as long as Zhao Hongyue agreed to her proposal and placed her elsewhere for the time being, then she would have a chance to find a way to escape...... Therefore, as soon as he put forward his intentions, Gu Zheng looked at Zhao Hongyue with a nervous face, for fear that he would not agree to her request.
Zhao Hongyue seemed reluctant to part with Gu Zheng, but he was silent for a long time before asking, "Is there no other feasible way?" β
Gu Zheng shook his head and asked Zhao Hongyue: "What other methods do you think is feasible?" β
Zhao Hongyue couldn't answer, and finally could only agree to Gu Zheng's request: "Okay, for the sake of you and the child, I will find a place to place you first." β
Gu Zheng couldn't help but secretly rejoice when she heard this, and she was thinking about Zhao Hongyue as soon as she left after settling her, she would find a way to escape...... never thought that Zhao Hongyue would take her to the top of a mountain, and only left her a maid, a midwife, and two trusted henchmen, in addition, he also left enough dry food for Gu Zheng and others to eat for a whole year.
Zhao Hongyue seemed to have seen through Gu Zheng's mind a long time ago, only to see that he had settled Gu Zheng and left a back move before leavingβββ where Gu Zheng was located had to walk across a suspension bridge before he could get out, Zhao Hongyue actually 'draws' a knife to cut off the suspension bridge before leaving!
Gu Zheng, who was trapped on the other side of the bridge, couldn't help but be anxious: "This bridge is the only way out for me to get out of here, you cut it off, how can I get out in the future?" β
"Don't worry, you don't need to worry, I have my own way to get over when I come to pick you up," Zhao Hongyue stared at Gu Zheng from a distance, and threatened her half-truthfully: "There are often fierce beasts on the other side of the mountain, you must not move around at will, you will be fine if you stay in the hut obediently." β
Gu Zheng could only completely die when she heard this, and obediently stayed in the thatched hut that Zhao Hongyue ordered someone to build for her, and moved within the designated safe range under the guard of the two strong men, while living a life without fighting with the world, while silently praying that Liang Jingxian could find her as soon as possible and save her from trouble......
The sun rises and the sun sets, Gu Zheng's life on the mountain is simple and regular, and more than a month has passed in a blink of an eye, Gu Zheng gave birth to a pair of full-term twins as scheduled under the service of the maid and Wen Po. The two children are very strong, which makes Gu Zheng happy and loving, but at the same time, she can't help but miss the pair of sons and daughters who are separated from herβββ when will she see a pair of sons and daughters again, and see Liang Jingxian again?
Will she always live in the mountains in the unknown and never have the chance to meet the people closest to her again?
Such worries accompanied Gu Zheng for half a year, and after half a year, there was still no news outside the mountain, Zhao Hongyue not only came to pick her up and leave as promised, but also did not even send anyone to send her any news, so that Gu Zheng realized that Zhao Hongyue had either been completely defeated or had died in battle, otherwise he would not have left her here for more than half a year.
Zhao Hongyue was defeated, it stands to reason that Gu Zheng should be happy, but the situation she is in at this moment makes her unable to be happyβββ Zhao Hongyue left alone after sending her here, that is to say, only Zhao Hongyue knows that she is trapped on the top of the mountain!
So if Zhao Hongyue is really killed in battle, then no one knows that she is trapped on the top of the mountain, and Liang Jingxian is difficult to find no matter how powerful she is! As soon as he thought of this, Gu Zheng didn't want Zhao Hongyue to die, for the sake of her child, Zhao Hongyue had to live!
The sun rises and the moon sets, the days pass day by day, and every day passes, the despair in Gu Zheng's heart deepens, and as Zhao Hongyue leaves less and less dry food, Gu Zheng begins to worry that the three of them will not be able to survive Liang Jingxian to come to the rescue......
Another half a year passed in Gu Zheng's anxiety, when the dry food left by Zhao Hongyue was about to be eaten and Gu Zheng and others could only rely on game to make up for it, whether it was Liang Jingxian or Zhao Hongyue, the two strong men who had sworn allegiance to Zhao Hongyue finally couldn't hold it back, left Gu Zheng and set off to the forbidden place that Zhao Hongyue said earlier, trying to find another way out from there and leave the top of the mountain.
But they never returned, so that Gu Zheng didn't know in the end whether they found a way out of the predicament smoothly, or died in the mouth of a fierce beast, and their departure only made Gu Zheng and the others feel even more desperate......
Is she really going to die here?
She's not reconciled!
