Chapter 425: Secret Calculation
"No, I'd better go and change to Bai Wutong and come in and take a rest!" Bai Wutong only delivered internal strength to Ling'er last night, and it took a lot of energy, so he couldn't be allowed to hold on like this.
What's more, she is so sleepy, can Bai Wutong not be sleepy?
Gu Wanwan rubbed her nose and forced her spirits. But as soon as he got up, a wave of dizziness hit his head, and the carriage seemed to overturn!
However, it was not the carriage that overturned, but she fell back.
"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Ling'er hurriedly helped her and asked softly.
"It's okay, I just feel dizzy, my head is so dizzy......" Gu Wanwan closed her eyes and closed her cherry lips as she thought about it.
Seeing this, Ling'er pursed her lips and smiled: "If you are dizzy, go to sleep!" Wake up and you're all set! Bai Gongzi will no longer have you in his eyes, and Ling'er will not be so painful anymore! ”
Bai Wutong leaned back against the carriage, his eyes looked ahead, he looked weak and unfocused, and his face was pale and weak, which made his originally handsome face lose a trace of life.
This is due to the excessive consumption of internal energy for Ling'er last night.
Behind him, a whisper could be heard coming from inside the carriage, but he couldn't make out what was being said. In the past, as long as he listened calmly, no matter how small Gu Wanwan and Ling'er's whispers were, he could hear every word clearly.
But recently, he couldn't hear clearly, closed his eyes and held his breath, and tried hard to argue, but he was still unable to do so.
Ling'er lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw the pale face of the white sycamore. He was closing his eyes tightly, not even noticing her approach. Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but feel a pain in my heart. Bai Wutong was always energetic in the past, no matter how long he was on the road, there was no trace of tiredness on his face. It is not even possible to detect that someone is approaching.
Feeling a very light breathing sound, Bai Wutong opened his eyes, turned his head to look, and couldn't help but be surprised: "It's you?" Can I help you? ”
"I ...... Bai Gongzi, after such a long journey, you should be tired, please go in and rest for a while! Let Ling'er drive! Ling'er came back to her senses, finished with a smile on her face, and reached out to pick up the whip in Bai Wutong's hand.
Who wants Bai Wutong to raise his hand upward, dodging her outstretched hand, and said in a light tone: "No need, Bai is not tired, Miss Ling'er, please go back to the carriage!" ”
"That's what the princess meant!" She knew that if Bai Wutong was unwilling, she was afraid that she would not be able to persuade him even if she opened a few more mouths, so she had to move Gu Wanwan out.
Hearing this, Bai Wutong looked back and re-examined Ling'er's face, and a hint of a smile hooked up at the corner of her mouth was mocking: "The princess regards Miss Ling'er as a sister, how can she be willing to let Miss Ling'er come out to drive?" ”
"This is really what the princess meant, do you think I would lie in front of the princess?" Ling'er asked him unhurriedly.
Bai Wutong was speechless for a moment, indeed, although Ling'er poked her head out to talk to him, Gu Wanwan was in the carriage, so close, it was impossible for her not to hear what Ling'er was saying. If Ling'er really told a lie, he was lying in front of Gu Wanwan, with his understanding of Gu Wanwan, he had already stood up and spoken, and it was impossible to be silent.
"Since it is the princess's meaning, you will let the princess talk to me in person." He still didn't believe that the princess would suddenly give such an order, with the princess's temperament, she just wanted to replace him to rest, and she would go into battle in person, and she would not bother others, not to mention that this was still Ling'er, she regarded her as a sister.
"The princess has fallen asleep!" Ling'er whispered back.
"What? Sleeping? Bai Wutong opened the curtain in surprise and looked into the carriage, Gu Wanwan really lay down, and she was still wearing a white leather jacket on her body.
"See? Does Bai Gongzi believe Ling'er's words now? Ling'er looked at him calmly from the side.
"How could the princess suddenly fall asleep?" And he slept so soundly that he couldn't even wake her up from the conversation between the two of them.
"The princess is so tired, she is in a hurry all the way, and the princess has never rested well, and it is normal for her to feel sleepy." Ling'er explained, "Originally, the princess wanted to come to rest for Bai Gongzi in person, but after she got up, she felt dizzy, so Ling'er persuaded her to rest and told her that Ling'er would come to replace Bai Gongzi to rest, and the princess could rest at ease." ”
Bai Wutong glanced at Ling'er, and then turned his gaze to Gu Wanwan's body in the carriage, as if he believed it, but he still didn't seem to believe it.
"If Bai Gongzi doesn't believe Ling'er's words, you can wait for the princess to wake up and ask for herself, if Ling'er tells a lie, you can teach Gongzi how he wants, but now he still invites Gongzi to rest in the carriage." Ling'er persuaded again.
Bai Wutong was still embarrassed: "It's better for me to come by myself!" You haven't driven before, so you don't know what to take. ”
"Aren't we going to Tongzhou? The way to Tongzhou, Ling'er knows, Ling'er was fortunate to follow Xiangye to Tongzhou once in his early years, as for whether he can drive a carriage, Bai Gongzi handed over the whip to Ling'er, didn't he know? ”
As soon as the words fell, Ling'er snatched the whip from Bai Wutong's hand. Bai Wutong had doubts in his heart, so he did not fortify.
"Have you followed Gu Xiangye to Tongzhou?" He suspected he had misheard.
"Yes, Bai Gongzi, although Ling'er's memory is not the best, but he can also remember the general route. Also, when you asked the woodcutter for directions in the morning, Ling'er was also beside you, and Ling'er remembered how the woodcutter answered. She knew that Bai Wutong was unwilling to rest assured, so she continued to persuade. With these two points she said, it was enough to persuade Bai Wutong to let her hurry up, right?
"What happened when you and Gu Xiangye went to Tongzhou?" Bai Wutong continued to ask.
Bai Wutong's suddenly serious expression made Ling'er smile on his face, and replied seriously: "Actually, Ling'er was only a ten-year-old child at the time, I only remember that Xiangye was very worried when he was on the road, and Ling'er really didn't know what it was for. ”
"Then why did Gu Xiangye take you on the road? You should know that, right? "Gu Zhenhai would never take a ten-year-old maid on the road for no reason, right?
"Yes. However, the reason why Xiangye took Ling'er on the road was entirely because of the princess. When Ling'er said this, she looked back at Gu Wanwan, who was already asleep in the carriage, and continued in a low voice, "Xiangye originally wanted to take the princess to Tongzhou, but because the princess was reluctant to Ling'er, she had to be accompanied by Ling'er, so Ling'er had the honor to go." ”
"What? Is he going to take the princess there? Unexpectedly, the topic would come back to Gu Wanwan, and Bai Wutong became more confused, "Gu Xiangye behaved like this, what is the matter?" ”
Ling'er just said that it was something that happened when she was ten years old, which means that the princess is still a child, Gu Zhenhai took the princess to Tongzhou for thousands of miles, shouldn't it be to play? If he really went to play, Ling'er wouldn't say that he was preoccupied.
He suddenly became so concerned, Ling'er only felt as if something was stuck in his chest, and his breathing became uncomfortable. But she still quickly replied: "The specific situation, Ling'er doesn't know, but Ling'er clearly remembers that Xiangye was able to take the princess out alone once, and after the princess came back, she became stupid and not normal." ”
Bai Wutong was talking to himself, he didn't expect Ling'er to answer, because Ling'er had already answered before and didn't know about it, so he didn't expect Ling'er to tell him anything. But he didn't want to hear such words, which suddenly made his brain rumble.
"What did she say, princess?"
"No, the princess only said, 'Daddy won't let you speak,' and nothing else. In the years that followed, the princesses were all like that, and they were no longer as clever as before. In fact, this matter has always been a curiosity in Ling'er's heart, but because of Gu Zhenhai's authority, she has never dared to talk about it to outsiders.
"But Princess, she's ...... now When did the princess return to normal? "The princess's current appearance is not stupid at all, and she is not like the person described by Ling'er. But he didn't think that Ling'er was lying, he remembered that he had known the princess not long ago, and before he wanted to enter the prime minister's mansion, he had also inquired about the princess's temperament, but many people shook their heads when they talked about Gu Wanwan, and they had a bad evaluation of her.
is very similar to what Ling'er said, since this is the case, then what should be the reason for Gu Wanwan's transformation?
"After that cliff. It was before the second lady was going to marry the prince, the princess was framed by the second lady and fell into the cliff, I thought the princess was dead, and when she was sad and overwhelmed, the princess came back. But since then, the princess has lost her memory, and her temperament has changed greatly, not only has she become smarter, but she is also able to speak well, understand martial arts, and no longer let people bully her like before. ”
Now that I think about it carefully, Gu Wanwan has really changed a lot when she came back from falling off the cliff, and the whole person has become smart and resolute, just like before.
"Falling off a cliff?" Bai Wutong pondered these two words in his heart, he seemed to meet the princess at that time, but when he met the princess, the princess seemed to be normal.
"Bai Gongzi, what are you thinking?" Seeing that he had been distracted for a long time, Ling'er called softly beside him.
"It's nothing, I'm just wondering if Gu Xiangye loves to go to Tongzhou?" It's not the first time Gu Zhenhai has gone to Tongzhou, and he has taken Ling'er to it, does he often come and go to Tongzhou?
"This Ling'er is not very clear, although Xiangye loves to go out very much, but he doesn't explain to anyone when he goes out, and many times even his wife doesn't know where Xiangye went."
The reason, now that I think about it, Xiang Ye must want to do something with the identity of the head of Changle Palace, but it must be a secret thing, and it will not be known to outsiders at all.
"Alright, you go in first!" With Gu Zhenhai's identity, where he will really go and what he will do, I am afraid that only he knows.
Or do you want to drive her in?
Ling'er was slightly stunned, clenched the whip in his hand, refused to enter the carriage, just quietly stared at Bai Wutong, wanting to confront him.
"What are you doing?" For Ling'er's move, Bai Wutong felt very inexplicable.
"Even if Bai Gongzi doesn't care about his body, he should care about the princess."
