Chapter 145: The Heart Knot
"Seniors are just, just 'curious'?"
The autumn wind is slightly higher, and the long clothes are flying. Master Wuwei touched his robe quietly, his tone was a little interested, it seemed to be just casual and indifferent, but there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes. Under his gaze, the girl opposite calmly raised her hand and twisted a chess piece, and moved it to one place at will.
The girl's voice was soft, faint, fluttering in the wind.
Her long eyelashes drooped slightly, and her broad cloak blew up behind her and fell quickly.
The girl in purple only wore a soft bun, and her long black hair fluttered in the wind, and there were a few different smells for a while.
Master Wuwei touched his knees, his fingers moved slightly, and his eyes shook slightly: "You look like this.... It's a bit like Ah Yue. Without waiting for Gu Mingxiu to raise his head, Master Wuwei lowered his head to look at the changed chess game on the table, and muttered softly as if he had fallen into the past, "Ah Yue, she.... I also like to dress up neatly.,It's not like the daughters of you officials.,It's always a lot of hairpins.,But.... You and that little girl are both very plain, not much different from others. β
Gu Mingxiu's fingertips were still pressed on the sunspot, and after a pause, he slowly withdrew his fingers and looked up at Master Wuwei.
Flying leaves are dyed blue, and long hair dances lightly. The girl in purple sat like a picture scroll in the quiet wind, her eyes were as clear as snow, without a single impurity, but like ancient jade that had been precipitated for thousands of years, clear but difficult to fathom. She was looked at, still indifferent, not at all uncomfortable.
Looking at her appearance, Master Wuwei said softly: "Ah Yue, she.... At that time, he always wore a cloak, quietly guarded this small cabin, and played chess with me here. Sometimes it's a day's work, no matter whether she wins or loses, she always looks quiet, not happy at all, not annoyed at all. β
During his illness, Gu Liyi also relayed the story that Qiao Wu had told to Gu Mingxiu. Regarding the past of Master Wuwei, Gu Liyi secretly asked Xiao Wan'er a few questions in private, but she was vaguely right.
Gu Mingxiu also understood at this moment, what Master Wuwei said was probably the time after the two of them lived in seclusion.
Ah Yue is always very enthusiastic, whether it is fighting grievances or talking with people. I've been thinking..... In the end, she probably wanted to open it, and felt that there was not much to do, so she didn't fight with me, nor did she mess with me, she just wanted to spend it with me, and I followed her and didn't quarrel with her. β
"Xiao Wan'er is the same as Ah Yue's temperament in the past, she will make trouble when she talks about it, she will cry when she says it, and she can't coax it...... Ha, if you teach Ah Yue to see it, I'm afraid I'll laugh too. Sometimes I see Xiao Wan'er making a lot of noise all over the place, and I wonder what Ah Yue looks like.... When she sees her daughter like this, will she also show a different side? β
The eyes of the old man who were trapped in the memories of the past fell on Gu Mingxiu, and he was in a trance. However, it was only for a moment, and Master Wuwei withdrew his nostalgic gaze, and just stared at Gu Mingxiu fixedly: "-It's just that you are different." You are still young, and although the poison on your body is dangerous, the old man thinks you don't care. β
"Little girl, you are not afraid of death, but you don't seem to care much about life and death, which really makes the old man curious." He knocked on the chess pieces on the table again and again, and his eyes showed a little scrutiny, "People who are young next year seem to have gone through this world - compared to those maids of yours, you look extremely abnormal." β
It's not normal.
It was probably the first time he had heard someone else give him such an evaluation, Gu Mingxiu raised his head and looked at the eyes of Master Wuwei.
"During the drug test, you were a little confused and not very sober, what did that stinky boy say to you, 'You can't die without revenge', and vaguely mentioned 'Shen Yang'," Master Wuwei looked at Gu Mingxiu with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes, "The old man is not so ignorant of the world, this name should be the name of Prince Shen." β
"Of course, the old man is not very interested in the affairs between you and the prince, and it is not as interesting to listen to this as the storyteller talks about the play." Master Wuwei didn't wait for Gu Mingxiu to speak, he waved his hand, and snorted lightly, "Old Man is just curious about you, a little girl, and that stinky boy." β
Gu Mingxiu looked at Master Wuwei's expression quietly, and let him babble paragraph after paragraph. The fingertips gently tugged at the cloak, and the girl in purple laughed softly: "I heard a story in the past, and I thought it was interesting at the time, so I also wrote it down." Raising his eyebrows lightly, Gu Mingxiu smiled gently, "It's probably about a prince who is in love with a Jianghu person." He pretended to be an official eunuch to approach the chivalrous woman, and in the end even lost the throne and fled with the chivalrous woman. β
It's just that the rumors in the market are that an official surnamed Shen eloped with a heroine, and it is still talked about today. Not.... However, in the same year, a prince went to the palace, and I heard that he had an incurable disease, and the funeral was not very beautiful, but it was not as widely spread as the previous event. β
Her voice was cold and crisp, word by word, and the expression of the old man opposite sank slightly. Gu Mingxiu didn't seem to be scared at all, just stared at Master Wuwei calmly, finished telling the story, and chuckled lightly at the end: "I don't know.... Have you ever heard this story? β
The old man on the opposite side was silent for a moment, staring at Gu Mingxiu, with a slight coldness in his eyes.
The girl in purple did not lose, her expression was cold and calm.
After a while, Master Wuwei slowly spoke: "When I left, he also looked at me like that. He stared at Gu Mingxiu's expression, and seemed to have aged a lot for a while, with a little deep guilt in his eyes, "Ahuai..... At that time, he was only ten years old, but he was like an older man than me. β
He is young and vigorous, and he is not willing to be an emperor who sits on the world, but only wants to wander the rivers and lakes with his beloved.
At that time, he threw the token of the shopkeeper Jinyiwei to a low voice, he looked up at the cheek that was slapped red by the old emperor, and smiled indifferently: "Anyway, there are so many sons of the father, and I am not the only one, is it." If you dislike that your son can't be cultivated when he's older, but the emperor and grandson can also cultivate, why do you have to ask me. β
Those bastard words made his father angry, and his grandmother fainted on the spot.
It was obviously a scene of chaos, and he stood indifferently in place, looking indifferent. During this period, the little boy in Xuanyi stood quietly in front of him in a panic, raised his lips and smiled at him indifferently: "Second uncle, if you want to go, you can leave, the Shen family will not be able to do without you." β
"I've learned something from you, and although it's not very useful, it's not too difficult to lead a soldier."
is obviously a young child, but his words are cold and ruthless.
"He said he wanted to lead the brocade guard, but I thought it was just a kid's nonsense that hadn't seen anything in the world." Master Wuwei sighed lightly, "I didn't know until Ahuai found me three years later.... He wasn't joking at all. The people of the emperor's family, where do ordinary people get the fun? Even if he couldn't, he shouldn't be a thirteen-year-old child who wasn't afraid of killing people at all. β
"As soon as I left, I knew in my heart that I was ashamed of them, the most guilty.... It's time for Ahuai. β
Master Wuwei sighed softly, then turned his head to look at Gu Mingxiu, and said slowly: "Ah Huai, he looks stubborn, no one cares about it, even the current son of heaven, Ah Huai's brother, has told me that this brother is not only indifferent, but in fact he is extremely cold, and he doesn't care about anything. β
"Ah Huai doesn't care about the throne, otherwise the Son of Heaven should have done it a long time ago; Ah Huai doesn't care about power, he leads Jinyiwei, it doesn't matter if he is protecting this big Shen Jiangshan. Master Five Flavors smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I've never seen him think or care about anythingβwhen he appeared in front of me with you. β
His fingertips trembled slightly, and Gu Mingxiu was silent.
"He was a big change from what he used to be, but it made me see a different person." Master Wuwei looked at her and said slowly, faintly relieved, "He has someone he cares about, someone he wants to protectβbut I don't know, what do you think?" As Ahuai's second uncle, I don't want him to be let down in vain. β
Gu Mingxiu was silent for a moment and did not answer.
"I said, you little girl is too thoughtful, and she may not be suitable for Ahuai. But if you are happy, I have nothing to say, but if it is not. β
- Ming.
- Gu Mingxiu, do you know your own thoughts?
ββFor the words of that night, are you just looking for a momentary liking to rely on because of temporary vulnerability, or are you moved by Shen Huai? Why did you tell Shen Huai that you would marry him?
A few traces of regret and sadness flashed in his eyes, Gu Mingxiu suddenly closed his eyes, and his fingertips tightened slightly.
Taking the person's reaction into his eyes, Master Wuwei slowed down his tone: "You have a calamity in your heart, and it has never been eliminated." Ahuai's anger is slightly heavier, caused by long-term killing, but the anger in your heart is far deeper than his. That's something I don't understand. β
β........ What the predecessors said is extremely true. Gu Mingxiu slowly opened his eyes, with a little faint tiredness in his eyes, "I have hatred in my heart, and I may not be able to think about Shen Huai at this time." I...."She sighed softly and raised her eyes to meet Master Wuwei's gaze, "I don't know Shen Huai's thoughts, and I always guessed by scheming in the past. Now the answer is so simple, I can't understand it. β
"Shen Huai is kind to me, I only know that I will definitely not use him."
The girl's eyes are clean and clear, like a clear stream on a spring. Her tone was gentle, half-assured, without the slightest hesitation.
Master Wuwei only looked at her for a long time, and then suddenly laughed: "That stinky boy always doesn't care about anything, he always thinks that there is nothing in the world that he can't do, but now that he has a big problem, he only knows that he has a headache." That's it, I don't know anything about you little girls, I'm old, I'm old, and I'm not blindly involved. β
"It's just that if you don't like my nephew, make it clear to him earlier, don't call him ......" Master Wuwei paused as he spoke, and then laughed again in Gu Mingxiu's unexplained gaze, "That's it, that stinky boy, very stubborn." β
The sound of brisk footsteps came from behind him, and Gu Liyi slowly approached with the medicine bowl: "Senior, Sister Xiu, I'm here to deliver the medicine!" β
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
