Chang'an, Balingyi, Guo Jie's hut.

On the roof, a man and a woman stand side by side.

The man is older, short and concise, with a cold face, it is Guo Jie.

The woman is fifteen or sixteen years old, with ice muscles and jade bones, bright eyes and bright teeth, and very good skin, which seems to be broken by blowing, and it is the beautiful girl who is known as nameless and surnameless.

The two of them quietly looked at Liu Rong's men and horses who were moving away.

The centaurs were the size of a pancake, then an egg tart, then a sesame seed, and finally vanished.

The girl asked softly, "Father-in-law, the prince today seems to be full of sincerity, why did you choose to avoid it?" ”

Guo Xie shook his head, sighed, and said, "It's eventful, it's better not to see it." ”

Subsequently, he asked Liu Rong and the girl in detail about the conversation again, with a strange expression on his face, and asked, "What do you think of this prince?" ”

"He?" The girl thought for a while, and replied with a smile on her face: "He's very good, he doesn't have any arrogance, he's very kind, not like a prince, but a little ranger." ”

The girl grinned.

Hearing this, Guo Xie stopped speaking and fell into deep thought.

At this time, the girl's body jumped off the roof flexibly, ghostly like a cat.

Guo Xie looked at the girl's figure, his face was slightly moved, thoughtful.

After a while, the girl returned to the roof with the sword specially given by Liu Rong. (Why do you have to speak from the rooftop?) Pull the wind? ）

"Father-in-law, is this the sword that the prince gave you today?"

In the Han Dynasty, the style of swords prevailed, from the emperor to the wealthy people, everyone had a big sword.

Who doesn't love the sword?

Guo Xie drew his sword out of the sheath smoothly, skillfully danced a sword flower, and the cold light jumped and flashed.

He looked at the sword carefully and exclaimed, "A peerless sword." ”

。。。。。。

Immediately, he handed the sword to the girl beside him, and said casually, "I gave it to you." ”

Hearing this, the girl was overjoyed and asked in disbelief, "Gave it to me?" ”

Guo Xie nodded.

Seeing the girl's happy appearance, he showed a relieved expression and said:

"It's been nine years since you came to the Guo family. In the past nine years, my father-in-law has not given you any decent gifts, hey, my father-in-law is not qualified. ”

"Well, it's been nine years, I was seven when I first came, and I'm sixteen now."

The girl said sincerely: "My father-in-law has the grace of my daughter's life, and my mother-in-law and sisters in the family treat me like a relative, and I will never forget this kindness." ”

Guo Xie continued: "What do you think about the theft of Baling? Speaking of which, are you and the emperor sleeping inside still enemies? ”

Hearing this, the girl looked excited, a dark cloud appeared on her face, and said: "Yes, I have a grudge against him, and my greatest wish when I was a child was to kill him with my own hands!" ”

Immediately, the girl's expression relaxed, her face dissipated, and she continued:

"Three years ago, when he died and was just buried in the Baling Tomb, I sneaked into it and stabbed the ground with a sword, stabbing forty-nine swords in a row, to comfort the souls of forty-nine of my relatives in the sky."

"Although I didn't kill him with my own hands, but he is dead after all, do I still have to dig up the grave and whip the corpse like Wu Zixu? Seems too much. Hey, forget it, the so-called death and debt are eliminated, and the grudge between our two families is over. ”

"Now, I just want to honor my father-in-law and mother-in-law and repay you for your nurturing kindness, and I want nothing else."

。。。。。。

"If only everybody could think like you." Guo Xie said.

Hearing this, the girl was stunned.

Could it be that the tomb robbers are not for the financial reports of the tomb, but for the revenge of the enemy to dig up the grave and send the corpse?

Who the hell are they?

Guo Xie didn't talk much about this topic, and the girl didn't ask more.

A character like Guo Xie has done too many unspeakable things, and has hidden too many unspeakable secrets in his heart, and the girl is used to it.

should know by himself, his father-in-law Guo Xie will naturally tell himself; If you shouldn't know about it, it's useless to ask.

I only heard Guo Xie say: "Although you have been living with us all these years, you have been hiding in the dark and not seeing anyone, I have really wronged you." ”

The girl's skin is so fair, in addition to being genetically outstanding, it also has a lot to do with the fact that she has rarely spent time in the sun over the years.

"Until the old emperor dies and the new emperor ascends the throne, your father-in-law allows you to come out and walk around, but he rarely lets you see the living. It's really your special identity, and if you're not careful, you may incur a catastrophe. ”

When the girl heard this, she nodded, how could she not know this.

Now she is still a person who does not exist in the household registration of Dahan.

Everyone thought that she died in the big case that shocked the whole country nine years ago, who would have thought that Guo Xie would take a huge risk to rescue her and hide at home all the time.

Stealing the day, Tao Dai Li Zhuang, this is Guo Jie's means.

At the risk of annihilation, he left a trace of blood for his old friend.

One death and one life is friendship.

Guo Xie is a friend, I can make it!

。。。。。。

"Do you know why I asked you to open the door today?" Guo Xie asked.

The girl shook her head.

Guo Xie said movingly:

"Over the years, my father-in-law has been walking on the tip of a knife, and I didn't expect to be able to live to such an age."

"Now that my father-in-law is old, I'm afraid he won't be able to give you enough shelter. One day, my father-in-law will die and will no longer be able to shelter you from the elements. ”

"Fortunately, you have all grown up, and you will be able to support yourself in the future, and you will be able to break through on your own ability. A few of them are okay, they are all surnamed Guo, even if the luck is not good, relying on the past friendship of the Guo family, it is not a problem to eat together. ”

"Only you, I can't rest assured. You are involved in a big case behind your back, and you can't even show your real name, and your stepfather is really worried about your future. ”

The girl couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard Guo Jieqing's sincere words.

Although she is a person with a different surname, how can her father-in-law's family ever regard herself as an outsider?

The grace of nurturing is greater than the sky, and this kindness is unforgettable.

"Father-in-law, I have begged you many times over the years, so you can let me be surnamed Guo. I want to be your and mother's own daughter, you are my biological parents, I want to repay you well and provide for your old age. ”

When Guo Xie heard this, he shook his head firmly.

"This must not be done. You are his daughter, with his blood flowing in your veins, and raising you as an adult is also the fulfillment of my promise to him. One day, I will restore your family's honor so that you can say your last name with confidence. ”

Obviously, the "he" he is talking about here refers to the girl's biological father, and it can be heard from the words that the two are irreversible friends and lifelong friendships.

Guo Xie looked at the girl and said word by word: "Tell me, what is your surname!" ”

The girl's heart was full of blood, and she said loudly: "My surname is Aragaki!" ”

Guo Xie nodded with satisfaction, and he solemnly explained to the girl:

"I asked you to open the door today just to find a way out for you."

"You've let go of all the grievances of the older generation, and that's good. Let him pass the past. You are innocent, and so are others, and you should not live in the shadow of hatred. ”

"Father-in-law won't hide it from you, I have a plan. The prince you see today will most likely be the next emperor, and only he can overturn the case for your father in the future and let you live a bright life under the sun. ”

"For the sake of your father, and for your sake, my father-in-law wants to dedicate you to the prince Liu Rong, what do you think?"

Hearing this, an anxious and shy look appeared on the girl's face.

Those who are in a hurry will not be able to live with their stepfather's family in the future.

Shameful, the father-in-law actually chose to sacrifice himself to a young man.

She knew that her father-in-law didn't want to borrow her to cling to Liu Rong's idea, and Guo Xie did it all for her consideration.

"Father, I don't know what to do? My heart is so messy. ”

The girl's heart was mixed, and she couldn't help crying quietly, with crystal tears on her delicate face.

Seeing this, Guo Xie comforted: "Don't worry, you think about it slowly." No matter what you decide, your stepfather will respect your choice. ”
