Chapter 100: Departure
The night was already deep, and there was silence around Gu's mansion.
Gu Xiaodie pushed away Luoyue's support and walked towards Gu Changge's courtyard with red eyes. Her steps were vain, but she still held on to no one's help. There was a little maid on the road who wanted to step forward, but she was glared at by Gu Xiaodie, and she stopped inexplicably, not daring to follow again.
Gu Changge's courtyard was quiet and quiet, without the slightest sound.
"Is the second sister still in the room?" Gu Xiaodie grabbed the pearl that greeted her and asked her tiredly.
Mingzhu had just come out of the medicine delivery, and she was still holding a medicine bowl in her hand. was grabbed by Gu Xiaodie suddenly, and almost didn't grasp the bowl in his hand. Cautiously looking back at the closed door, Mingzhu nodded: "The girl has been in the room all the time, but... If Miss Six can persuade the girl, it would be the best. ”
"I also want to have a good talk with my second sister." Gu Xiaodie said.
She let go of Mingzhu and walked towards Gu Changge's door. Luoyue was left outside, and she didn't dare to enter with her, so she could only watch Gu Xiaodie close the door again after entering.
The wooden windows were closed, and there was no light in the room, nor did it make a sound, and it was dead, as if no one was there. Gu Xiaodie's hand was still tightly grasping the doorknob, and she stood still against the door for a long time. She blinked, and it took her a long time to adjust to the darkness in front of her.
Moving in the direction of the bed in the direction of her memory, Gu Xiaodie called softly: "Second sister? Second sister, are you still awake? Her voice was soft, but it still made a dark shadow on the bed tremble.
A sense of powerlessness rose from her heart, Gu Xiaodie took two steps forward and ran to the bed, grabbed the other party's quilt, and choked up: "Second sister, when will you still look like this?!" How long are you going to look like this, second sister!! The quilt in his hand was torn by someone, and Gu Xiaodie's tears fell as soon as she brushed it.
"Second sister... The doctors all said your face is fine, what are you afraid of?! My mother said that everything has a chance to turn the tables, as long as you are good, you can win against Gu Mingxiu! But the second sister, but the second sister... Mother is dead! ”
The last three words smashed into Gu Changge's ears, and she froze in vain.
Gu Xiaodie slowly loosened the quilt in her hand, knelt on the bed in her direction, and cried in a low voice: "My mother and eldest brother are dead.... Daddy can't save them, none of them can be saved.... I see it! I saw it with my own eyes... I watched my eldest brother die with my mother, just recently..."
Tears fell on the quilt one by one, and Gu Xiaodie said repeatedly: "I saw it....."
The person wrapped in the quilt slowly loosened the quilt, raised his head in the darkness and looked at his sister in front of him in a daze. The blank eyes under her eyes were full of eyes, Gu Changge muttered to her, as if she couldn't believe it: "Mother and eldest brother.... He's dead? ”
"Dead." Gu Xiaodie replied to her in a dumb voice, clenching her sleeves, "Big brother, he has been tortured to the point that he is not human.... I was unconscious at the execution ground. Mother.. My mother saw me, I saw my mother crying.... She kept crying, trying to teach me to go back, to teach me not to look... But I saw it, and I saw it clearly. ”
"It was Gu Mingxiu who killed his mother and eldest brother, it was the people from the General's Mansion who tortured the eldest brother, and it was even the people from the General's Mansion who beheaded him!" Gu Xiaodie's voice was full of hatred, and he pulled the quilt and said, "Dad went to ask the general's mansion, but not only did he not get help, but he was also humiliated by those people and beaten by people.... They did so excessively, it was Gu Mingxiu, it must have been secretly instructed by Gu Mingxiu! ”
"Second sister... Don't you cheer up and let Gu Mingxiu kill us all?! Gu Xiaodie grabbed Gu Changge's sleeve and choked up, "Second sister, I beg you... Don't do that! Don't do it anymore!! ”
"We don't have a mother! There is no big brother anymore! ”
Something exploded in his mind, and the voices and smiles of Dong Qing and Gu Xuan all came to mind. Gu Changge closed his eyes and forced the tears back into his eyes. She took Gu Xiaodie into her arms, stroked her back, and said soothingly: "It's okay, it's okay Xiaodie... It's okay. And sister, you still have sister. She muttered, a little resentment oozing from her eyes, "Gu Mingxiu... Gu Mingxiu... Gu Mingxiu! ”
"Gu Mingxiu is going to follow the General's Mansion back to Jingzhou, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in a year or two." Gu Xiaodie lay in Gu Changge's arms, wiped her tears and whispered to her, "My mother used to say that she wanted to provoke the relationship between Gu Mingxiu and her maid...... The maid named Mulan beside her is now our man. ”
Gu Xiaodie lowered her voice coldly and said ruthlessly: "Let her drug Gu Mingxiu and teach Gu Mingxiu to pay for her mother and eldest brother!" ”
"No," Gu Changge really stopped her and sneered, "That would be too cheap for her." Since there is someone by her side, it is better to be a spy, and don't waste it in vain. It's just that... Are you sure that Mulan is really facing us? ”
"Well, that's how the people I buried over there came back." Gu Xiaodie said, "Mu Lan has been reused by Gu Mingxiu many times, and our people have made her suspicious after a few more words. Gu Mingxiu even thought that the piano given to her by King Xiao was damaged by Mu Lan and punished Mu Lan, Miao Lan hated Gu Mingxiu very much in her heart, and was naturally willing to use it for us. ”
Nodding, Gu Changge said: "Then keep it with us, Gu Mingxiu has always been cautious, and there are only those three people who serve closely." Now that you have bought Mulan, don't waste a good chess piece. ”
She lowered her gaze and said coldly, "It's right to make her more torturous than death!" ”
"Gu Mingxiu."
The scroll in his hand was cast a large shadow, and when the lazy voice sounded carelessly in his ears, Gu Mingxiu happened to be a little sleepy. She raised her eyes and glanced at the person who was sitting down slowly, casually closed the book in her hand and put it on the table, and smiled slightly: "I guess you will come." ”
This king should say that you are smart," He poured himself a cup of tea, and the lazy His Royal Highness King Xiao raised his head and glanced at Gu Mingxiu, with a little ridicule in his eyes, "Or do you know this king?" ”
"Tomorrow, the General's Mansion will leave for Jingzhou, and he won't come back for about a year." Gu Mingxiu didn't pay attention to his words, just knocked lightly on the table, and said lightly, "You probably know about this matter, so I won't say anything to you." Just wanted to ask you to help me with something. ”
Shen Huai stayed in Jinyiwei all day, and really didn't listen to the news reported by Luo Feng. Thinking of Luo Feng's face in front of the car door, His Royal Highness King Xiao quietly put down the teacup: "Oh? Let's hear it. ”
"Help me keep an eye on the Gu family and the prince." She said, "I know that your mission is to keep an eye on the prince, but I would like to ask you to pay extra attention to the prince's movements and... side things, such as whether there is any connection with the side of the plug. ”
If it was in the past, Shen Huai would definitely suspect Gu Mingxiu's motives, but after learning from Qiao Wu that Gu Mingxiu had memories of his previous life, his mood was quite complicated. The little girl asked him to see if the prince wanted to rebel, but behind the scenes, she reminded him that the prince had a connection with Biansai, and he was bound to make some trouble to transfer him out of Yangzhou.
Shen Huai didn't know if Gu Mingxiu wanted to take revenge on Shen Yang because of hatred... Or because of love.
"The king thought that... You are reluctant to tell this king, let this king go to see you off early tomorrow morning. Shen Huai pretended to be sorry, there was a little regret in his eyes, as if he was reprimanding Gu Mingxiu for his lack of affection, but he saw that the little girl didn't raise her eyelids, and she didn't look too lazy to pay attention to him.
He smiled, the smile on his face was lazy and lazy, and his tone was very unconcerned: "You are now using this king's people more and more easily, but even this king is using it easily?" The cost of this king is very expensive, and I don't know if the embroidered girl can afford it. The king has always disliked credit. ”
"What His Highness wants, I have and can give it." Gu Mingxiu interrupted him lightly and smiled slightly, "It's just... After the matter is completed, the price can be discussed. ”
Hearing this, Shen Huai's eyes instantly became strange.
He stared at Gu Mingxiu for a long time, as if he was looking at something, the little girl was frank and swaying, she didn't care about his gaze at all, but taught Shen Huai to cry and laugh. Knowing in his heart that the other party must have misunderstood his meaning, Shen Huai didn't explain, but raised his eyebrows: "If you want to talk about it after it is done, there is nothing wrong with this king." It's just that this king doesn't believe you, the little girl has too many flowers and intestines - come. ”
Shen Huai stretched out his hand lazily and looked at her for a long time: "High-five as an oath." ”
Gu Mingxiu was inexplicable in her heart, but she calmly bowed her head and smiled slightly: "High-five is an oath." ”
The two high-fived and swore an oath, and Shen Huai's gaze became more and more strange, but it was only for a moment. He retracted his gaze, and a rather pleasant smile hung on the corner of his mouth: "Are you far away from Jingzhou, do you want me to send a few people to you?" Convenient to get things done. ”
As soon as the words came out, Gu Mingxiu was slightly silent for a moment. Thinking of An Yan's words that day, Gu Mingxiu knew where the knot was, and couldn't help but shake her head: "No need, I don't need anyone for the time being." Jing Zhou's days are easier than here. ”
Staring at her thoughtfully, Shen Huai said, "If you are so concerned about Gu Fu..... Why don't I help you clean them up? He raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, "Pretending to be a thief to rob the road, even if the Gu Mansion is destroyed overnight, it is nothing." Things on the rivers and lakes are much more complicated, and no one may be willing to take care of them. ”
"No, you don't." Gu Mingxiu interrupted him categorically, "The people of the Gu Mansion will be cleaned up by myself, and there is no need for His Highness to bother." ”
Shen Huai paused and smiled slightly: "Okay." ”
He got up and said nonchalantly: "Whatever you want to do, just do it, just remember, if there is anything that can't be done or solved, just come to this king." The young man raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, his tone was full of firmness, "This king will do it for you." ”
Gu Mingxiu was slightly stunned, but the person in front of him had already disappeared.
The candle flame flickered, and only the girl was left in the room.
In the early morning of the next day, when the city gate of Yangzhou was opened, the general's office and his party left Yangzhou.
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
