"Why don't you go put out the fire!" Su Jinli shouted coldly, and after that, he hurried towards the study with his skirt in his hand.
Even though she understood that this fire was deliberately done by Qiao Hao, she still couldn't bear to lose such a talent.
The servant was so shocked by her roar that his heart trembled, and then he hurriedly followed, Gu Mingyan sighed lightly, and then also walked towards Su Jinli.
Soon, they rushed to the door of the study, and the original magnificent courtyard had been destroyed by the fire, and only a few mottled ruins remained.
Su Jinli's eyes lit up, he took a deep breath and looked at the servant carrying the bucket on the side and asked, "Where is Master Qiao?"
She looked at the servant steadily, waiting for him to answer.
She was so hopeful that he would say that Master Qiao had escaped safely......
But when the servant heard her words, his nose turned red, and he choked up, "Qiao...... Master Qiao...... Gone! โ
It was only a few words, but he said it with great difficulty, and his face was already soaked in tears of sadness.
Su Jinli's heart trembled, and she unconsciously took a few steps back, her eyes overflowing with sadness when she looked at the ruins.
Qiao Hao is gone, and the once prominent Jiangdong Qiao clan has really been wiped out!
Thinking about it, her heart was tingling, a fine and dense pain that spread from her heart to her limbs.
She took one last look at the ruins with sporadic flames in her red eyes, and staggered towards the gate.
She didn't want to stay in this place anymore, just looking at it made her heart palpitate.
It's not all because of Qiao Hao's passing, as long as she looks at the desolate scene after the fire, she will unconsciously think of the fire in the Qianyun Palace in her previous life.
The fire that buried her and Gu Mingyou, as well as her lifelong love, hatred, and hatred......
She thought, she was probably the one present who could best understand Qiao Hao's arson!
After all, she had experienced the same powerlessness and despair.
That kind of despair, when there is no trace of nostalgia in the world, and there is no despair of thinking about living is the most exhausting.
In her previous life, she failed to overcome that kind of despair, and now Qiao Hao, who has no way to take revenge, has not yet been defeated!
Gu Mingyan keenly sensed that Su Jinli's mood was wrong, and his whole body was shrouded in a heavy sadness, but he only thought that Su Jinli was pity for Qiao Hao, and didn't think much about it.
So he stayed by the ruined study, watching quietly as his servants worked together to extinguish the last fire.
After the servant door brought out the corpse that had been burned beyond recognition in one fell swoop, there were bursts of sobbing in Gu Mingyan's ears.
Qiao Hao has a noble character, although he did a lot of wrong things for Gu Mingyun in the end, he is very good to the servants up and down the Zhizhou Mansion.
Yes, he suddenly ended his life in such a tragic way, and each of them felt very uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Gu Mingyan sighed again, and then ordered: "Gather Master Qiao's body well, and choose a feng shui treasure to bury it!"
With that, he turned away without hesitation.
Hearing this, a group of weeping servants hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Highness!" Your Highness is benevolent! โ
Although they did not leave the house, they also knew the tragic fate of those who colluded with horse thieves to murder the people.
After hearing the palpitating punishment, they were all uneasy, for fear that the elite soldiers at the gate of the mansion would suddenly rush in and drag them out with Master Qiao and behead them.
But after waiting for a long time, except for entering the mansion to get food, those elite soldiers did not appear in front of them, so their hanging hearts slowly eased.
Who knows, they breathed a sigh of relief, and the study was on fire......
When Gu Mingyan walked away, the servant who had just gone out to report rubbed his sour eyes, stood up and said, "Master...... committed a felony with Lord Xu, and this time he should have committed suicide in fear of crime...... Fortunately, His Royal Highness is benevolent and virtuous, so that the master can be buried in a beautiful manner! We...... Let's do it quickly! โ
After saying that, everyone's crying voices suddenly weakened, and they nodded tearfully together, and then hurriedly prepared for Qiao Hao.
โฆโฆ
In the evening, the twilight sinks in the west, and the sky is covered with gorgeous sunsets, which is very beautiful to watch.
However, the Zhizhou Mansion under the sunset is a plain place, without the grandeur of the past, only endless desolation and sorrow.
Su Jinli and Gu Mingyan both stood on the steps with calm faces, waiting for the busy people to return with a group of elite soldiers and cooking servants.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the silent street, Su Jinli raised his head, and saw the heroic Gu Mingjue coming in the sunset, and behind him was a neat army and people who had worked all day.
She forcibly suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, squeezed out a smile and greeted it.
When Gu Mingjue walked hand in hand with her to the steps, Gu Mingjue gave an order and asked the people to eat first like noon.
Half an hour later, after everyone had dinner, Su Jinli returned to the post station with Gu Mingjue and Gu Mingyan.
As soon as they arrived at the room where the two of them were temporarily staying, Gu Mingjue took Su Jinli, who looked a little dazed, into his arms and comforted her silently.
Feeling the warmth through the light fabric, Su Jinli's eyes were hot, and the tears that she had endured for a long time fell.
"Husband...... Qiao Hao: ...... He set himself on fire in his study! She said with a deep cry.
Gu Mingjue's eyes lit up slightly, and then he hugged her even tighter, caressing her delicate back.
"It's better to be broken than to be complete. Qiao Hao's temperament is too arrogant, it is normal to choose this path under such circumstances, and you are not too sad! He said softly.
After a pause, he added: "Death is endless fear for some people, but for Qiao Hao, it is relief!" He finally doesn't have to bear the blood feud of the Jiangdong Qiao clan anymore, isn't this a good thing? โ
Hearing this, Su Jinli nodded suddenly, but her tears still fell big and big.
She only felt an indescribable depression and grief in her heart, but she didn't know why this feeling came from.
Yes, she just wanted to cry in Gu Mingjue's arms and vent this nameless sadness.
Seeing this, Gu Mingjue first coaxed softly, but after coaxing for a while, but no effect was seen, so he directly held the face of the person in his arms and leaned down to kiss it.
Little by little, he kissed the crystal on her fair face, the tears, salty in the mouth, with a hint of bitterness.
He only felt that his heart was burned by these tears that were not hot, and it was burning and suffocating.
Kissing, kissing, his movements became impatient, and the kiss fell on the white face like a storm, and finally kissed the tightly pursed cherry lips......
Su Jinli's heart was teased by his warm kiss, and she was so stunned that she even forgot to cry.
After a long but warm kiss, the originally somewhat pale Fleur blushed a little on her face, and she only hurriedly breathed heavily.
Someone who had succeeded in stopping her tears smiled triumphantly, and that smile was as bright as a rainbow after the rain.
After relieving her breath, Su Jinli deliberately stared at Gu Mingjue, who was smiling happily with a cold face.
"Laugh again! Laugh again and tear your mouth apart! She said coldly.
She thought she was very fierce, but she didn't know that her "glare" was not lethal at all because of the blush on her face and the shame in her eyes, but she looked very coquettish.
Straight let someone with excellent self-control look at her eyes and heart, if it weren't for the fear of annoying her, I'm afraid that she would be directly hugged to the couch to warm up!
Gu Mingjue sighed in his heart, then quickly smiled, and hurriedly flattered and said, "Don't laugh!" Don't laugh anymore! โ
Having said that, his phoenix eyes were full of smiles, and he could only see Su Jinli's teeth itching.
"Humph!" She turned her head and walked away arrogantly.
Gu Mingjue looked at her proud back and smiled indulgently, and then quickly followed.
Whether she was annoyed or not, she stopped crying, which is enough to prove that this method works!
Well...... If she cries again, he will continue to use this method to stop her tears!
Someone thought leisurely.
Su Jinli, who was already walking away quickly, suddenly sneezed, she looked back blankly, and then continued to walk forward.
โฆโฆ
When she washed up and lay on the couch, Su Jinli had already calmed down, so she was not angry, she nestled quietly in Gu Mingjue's arms.
"Husband......" she called softly.
"Huh?" Gu Mingjue looked at her gently.
Touching his gentle eyes, Su Jinli's face became hot, and she unconsciously lowered her head.
He was so good to her, and she was still angry with him...... It's so undeserved!
Su Jinli took a rare introspection.
The two of them had already been heart-to-heart, and with just one glance, Gu Mingjue understood her tangled thoughts.
smiled faintly and said: "Fool, I am your husband, I want to tolerate everything you have and hold up a piece of heaven for you!"
Listening to such warm words, Su Jinli unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth and whispered, "Hmm!"
Looking at the quiet smile on her lips, the tenderness in Gu Mingjue's eyes deepened a little.
This was the woman he loved the most, and the wife who was with him, and he was delighted that she was revealing to him her unknown suppleness and serenity.
After quietly hugging her for a long time, Gu Mingjue said, "You just cried so sadly, I'm afraid it's not just because of Qiao Hao, right?"
Qiao Hao is smart and wise, and he has a rough life, so he is gone, which is really regrettable and pity.
But just one Qiao Hao, never to the point of making his little lady cry!
He thought that there must be another reason for her sad tears.
"Hmm!" Su Jinli bowed his head, and then said in a low voice: "Through today's fire, I remembered the fire that burned me and Gu Mingyou."
As soon as the words fell, Gu Mingjue used a force and hugged her tightly into his arms.
"Well, I don't want to! In this life, I will take good care of you! No more despair and pain that you will experience! He said solemnly.
"Hmmm! Remember your promises! Su Jinli hugged him back with the same force.
Then, she raised her head and kissed the lips that had just opened to continue talking.
Gu Mingjue had never been able to refuse all her moves, so he closed his eyes and let her kiss.
Soon, the profane clothes on the two of them quietly peeled off, and they became tighter and tighter, entangled on the red couch like cross-necked mandarin ducks.
