Chapter 128: Sending Troops
When Gu Zimo woke up, it was already after noon.
I didn't see Gao Changgong's figure around me, and I vaguely remembered that when I looked at the stars last night, Gao Changgong said that he would go back to the barracks for a few days from today, but he would come back as scheduled to take him to see the Lantern Festival.
As soon as he thought of the Lantern Festival, Gu Zimo was looking forward to it.
There was a smile on his whole face.
……
As soon as Gao Changgong returned to the army, Su Zhe came forward to him and said, "Your Highness, the envoy of the Zhou State is here, and his subordinates have settled him in the side camp." ”
"Envoy of the State of Zhou?" Gao Changgong doesn't remember any dealings he had with Zhou Guo.
"Boom away." The brow furrowed, and there was no room for words.
"No."
Su and Zhejiang went and returned, but their faces were even more solemn.
"Your Highness, the envoy took out this golden hairpin......"
Su Zhe presented the golden hairpin with solemn hands, Gao Changgong glanced at the golden hairpin lightly, and his face sank.
That hairpin is the one that Gao Changgong gave to Gu Zimo.
"What did the messenger say?"
"He said, His Highness only needs to see him......"
Gao Changgong played with the golden hairpin in his hand, and said in a gloomy voice: "Pass him in." ”
"No."
Suddenly, Su and Zhejiang came with the 'envoys' of the Zhou State.
The face of the envoy, Gao Changgong is not unfamiliar, to be exact, there have been several faces.
"Nie Yun sees His Royal Highness the King of Lanling."
Today's Nie Yun is dressed in gorgeous clothes and looks quite aristocratic.
Gao Changgong's gaze fell lightly on the golden hairpin in his hand, and he spoke after a long time: "Envoy of Zhou State, I don't know what to do when you come to this king's tent!" ”
"Your Highness...... Don't you remember the grass people? Nie Yun, a grass citizen, was rescued by His Royal Highness in Yecheng more than a year ago......"
Gao Changgong was obviously not interested in these matters, and interrupted Nie Yun in a cold voice, "This king is not interested in who you are, you just need to answer this king's question." ”
"Your Highness, I ......"
"Where did this golden hairpin come from?"
"It's ...... ...... from the grass people's friend" Nie Yun raised his head and looked at Gao Changgong, his eyes flashed with excitement, "That friend of the grass people is your staff......"
"Really?" Gao Changgong's face was calm, making people feel a sense of oppression that was almost suffocating.
"The grass people don't dare to say in front of His Royal Highness, this golden hairpin was given to His Majesty the King of Zhou by a friend of the grass people, and after His Majesty recognized that this hairpin was yours, he sent the grass people to return it to its original owner......
When Nie Yun spoke, his eyes were firmly fixed on Gao Changgong, as if he wanted to judge something from Gao Changgong's eyes.
However, Gao Changgong's face remained unchanged.
It's just that the hand he held the hairpin loosened a little and handed the hairpin to Nie Yun, "Since it is a gift from him, this king will not take it back." ”
"Your Highness, he Gu Zimo privately transferred the things you gave him to others, are you ......?"
Nie Yun couldn't hold his breath and asked, which made Gao Changgong laugh coldly, "Since the hairpin has been given to him by the king, he is the owner of the hairpin, and he can give it to whoever he wants, and the king will not ask." It's you, who keep saying that you're friends with him, but now you're coming to the king to complain, what are your intentions? ”
"I ...... I didn't mean to provoke His Highness and him, but he was of bad character, and I was afraid that he would harm His Highness......"
"Finished?"
"I ......"
"If you are done, get out of the king's barracks. In addition, remember to the king that the king's people, even if they are of bad character, will not be allowed to be talked about by others. ”
After speaking coldly, Gao Changgong glanced at Su Zhe, "Send him away." ”
His Royal Highness thought twice, the grass people were kind-hearted, what he said was true, it was Mrs. Li Ezi, he saw it with his own eyes, Gu Zimo and Zhou Guojun met privately, and they also rode the same horse, Gu Zimo also took Zhou Guojun to Buzhuang to buy clothes...... Their relationship is absolutely unusual, and he also gave the hairpin you gave him to the monarch of Zhou State, maybe Gu Zimo has already betrayed you, leaving this disaster by his side, I am afraid that it will be very disadvantageous to you, Your Highness......"
"Boom out!"
Gao Changgong ordered coldly.
Su Zhe hurriedly stepped forward, "Nie Gongzi, please." ”
Nie Yun wanted to say something, Su Zhe already had the intention of drawing his sword, so he had to swallow back the words that came to his lips and left in a huff.
"Your Highness, what Nie Yun said is not necessarily true, Master Gu, he ...... "I shouldn't betray Your Highness."
Before Su Zhe finished speaking, he was stopped by Gao Changgong's cold eyes.
"There are still some military affairs under my subordinates that have not been handled, so I will retire first......"
After Su Zhe left the military tent, Gao Changgong raised his hand and pulled out the white jade hairpin from his hair.
The hairpin texture is not very good, and there are even some chrome hands, but he has hardly left his body.
Gu Zimo didn't know why, he always felt a little uneasy.
Obviously I didn't get the cold, but I kept sneezing.
"Sneeze ......"
"Childe, maybe someone is thinking about Childe!" Gao Wen served a cup of hot tea and said to Gu Zimo with a smile.
"Who's going to miss me!" Gu Zimo took a sip of tea, and Gao Changgong's face suddenly flashed in his mind.
Last night, we watched the stars together on the eaves, Gao Changgong's focused side face, gentle eyebrows......
Strange, what do you want him to do all of a sudden?
"It's not too early, Childe, let's rest early." Seeing Gu Zimo's absent-minded appearance, Gao Wen got up and retreated.
Gu Zimo drank some soothing tea, and soon fell asleep.
It's just that I slept sweetly, and I felt like my body was shaking.
He awoke suddenly, only to find that he was not sleeping on a couch, but in a cabin.
There was a lantern in the cabin, and the light was dim, and when he saw the face of the man sitting next to him, he almost thought he was dreaming.
Raised his hand and touched the man's face, the touch was so real.
His wrist was suddenly held by Gao Changgong, and Gu Zimo's sleepiness dissipated instantly.
"Your Highness, why did you come back? We...... Where is this? ”
One question after another popped up.
Gao Changgong clearly said that he would be very busy these days.
"After crossing this river, it is the boundary of the Zhou Kingdom."
Gao Changgong's answer made Gu Zimo stunned.
"Your Highness, what are you going to do?"
He suddenly felt a little uneasy, did something happen?
Otherwise, why would Gao Changgong take him across the river at night......
"Why don't you wear the hairpin that the king gave you?"
"Huh? Hairpin? ”
Gu Zimo suddenly remembered that after he planned to leave Gao Changgong last time, the hairpin was put up by him, and now it should still be in the box at home.
"Your Highness, you ...... What's wrong? Did something happen? ”
"What did Yu Wenyong say to you in the private room of the restaurant that day."
“……”
Unexpectedly, after many days, Gao Changgong still asked about it.
Gu Zimo didn't want to hide it, "What can I say is to thank him for saving him, and ...... Told me something about the jade pendant......"
"Jade pendant?" Gao Changgong's voice trembled visibly.
"Well, though, he didn't say anything, but he definitely knows something, Your Highness, can you give me back the jade pendant...... If I have the chance, I would like to return the jade pendant to my benefactor......"
He thought that if Gao Changgong was willing to tell him about the jade pendant, he would have said it a long time ago, but now he was afraid that he would chase after him, and Gao Changgong might not be able to say it.
"Your Highness...... Are you listening to me? ”
Gao Changgong's face became more and more dark, and after a long time, he spoke, "Gu Zimo, you remember to this king, whether it is that jade pendant or the benefactor in your mouth, this king does not allow you to have a relationship with them, in the future, if you meet with them in private, this king will lock you up, and it will not scare you." ”
"Why?" Gao Changgong hadn't said such heavy words to him for a long time.
Gu Zimo felt aggrieved for a while, but he was even more annoyed, "You don't allow me to do this and that, you have to explain the reason clearly!" You forbid me to have an intersection with Yu Wenyong, I only think that the two countries have opposite positions, but, that benefactor, he gave me a very kind feeling, he also saved me, he has no ill will towards me......"
"This king is naturally for your good, as for the reason, you don't need to know."
"Why! I'm a human being, I'm a living creature, why don't I need to know? Gao Changgong, what the hell do you think, you can't trust me like that? If so, why do you want to keep me by your side, you might as well remove me from my position as a staff member and drive me out of the palace, so that you can save this suspicion! ”
"Shut up!" Gao Changgong coldly interrupted Gu Zimo.
The night wind blew, and the boat began to shake, and Gu Zimo reached out and grabbed the wall of the ship in the cabin to stabilize his body.
Gao Changgong was obviously enraged, and his face was so cold that he could freeze to death.
Gu Zimo was not to be outdone, this time the incident was Gao Changgong's too first.
"What else would you do but yell at me! I didn't provoke you......"
Gu Zimo didn't remember how he returned to the palace, but it was really as Gao Changgong said, he was grounded in the palace, and he couldn't get out anywhere except Moyuan.
And Gao Changgong, after arguing with him that night, did not appear in front of him again for several days.
After Gu Zimo calmed down, he still couldn't figure out why Gao Changgong was sometimes so good, but sometimes he was so unreasonable!
The matter of jade pendant, why does he have to be so aggressive.
Is there really some secret to be hidden?
What is the unknown relationship between Gao Changgong and Yu Wenyong and the benefactor who saved him?
Gao Changgong fell ill as soon as he returned to the army, and the persistent high fever caused him to fall into a coma.
In the eyes of everyone, Gao Changgong is like an iron beaten, and he rarely falls ill.
Hu Lu Suda put the medicine into the tent, and saw that Gao Changgong was holding the white hosta in a daze again, and shook his head helplessly, "Your Highness, I see that you are not a physical disease at all, you are a mental disease, you are obviously reluctant to do anything to him, but you want to pretend to be ruthless!" In the end, you are the one who falls ill, and you are not suffering from it. ”
Gao Changgong didn't pay attention to Hu Lu's inconsequential words, paused, inserted the hosta into his hair, and asked lightly: "What happened to the things entrusted to you by this king?" ”
"Your Highness, are you serious?"
"What do you say?"
"......" Hu Lu Suda swallowed his saliva, and his whole body trembled at Gao Changgong's cold glance.
With such murderous eyes, His Highness ...... Is it really necessary to send troops to attack the Northern Zhou?
But he has always put the people first, and now he takes the initiative to start a war, which is undoubtedly not like what he will do if he calms down, is he really not impulsive?
