Chapter 645: Loyalty
Looking at Li Duwei's dusty appearance, Gu Wanyin absolutely believed that Li Duwei sent the king of Zhennan back to Beijing, and he didn't know how much he suffered.
Just one thing - that is, the person who poisoned King Zhennan could let go so easily? And if it is really the person she and Zhou Ruijing guessed, all the way back to the capital, I am afraid that there will be a lot of danger. It's hard to believe that Li Duwei can do it, it's really not easy. Especially, the king of Zhennan still looks like this.
Gu Wanyin sincerely admired Li Duwei. If it weren't for his loyalty to King Zhennan, I am afraid that he would not have the perseverance to do such a thing.
From the border pass to the capital, it is not an easy task to send the king of Zhennan here safely and unharmed. Not to mention how to pass those levels along the way, or what kind of hardship is it in the face of secret obstacles? I wonder how King Zhennan would feel if he knew this? I'm afraid you're moved, right? At least, Zhou Ruijing looked a little moved. The princess is even more obvious.
To do such a thing, I think it is more than just one person can do it. So at that moment, Gu Wanyin looked at Li Duwei and asked softly, "Have the others settled down?" I don't know if I entered the city overnight, or did I come after settling elsewhere first? "If you go into the city overnight, then you will naturally have to prepare some food and boil some hot water to relax and relax, and then sleep well.
However, Li Duwei lowered his head, and the look on his face couldn't tell whether he was sad or what: "A total of four of us escorted the prince to escape from the border city, each with ten close guards. All the way back, there were a lot of people lost on the way, and when we entered Beijing, there were only two of the four of us left, and there were only a dozen or so guards around us. Now another person. I don't know...... I had five other guards with me, still waiting outside. ”
At this time, if you want to enter the door of the Zhou family, it is naturally impossible to enter through the front door. Not to mention that there are a large number of soldiers guarding the gate now, even on weekdays, such a situation is not good to enter through the gate in a fair and bright way. Gu Wanyin thought to herself, she must have used some kind of trick to escape the eyes of the soldiers and the Zhou family's own guardians. Otherwise, there is some secret passage for the Zhou family.
Gu Wanyin looked at Zhou Ruijing. Zhou Ruijing nodded: "You go and call everyone in, I'll let someone arrange for you to eat something and wash up first." Then I asked people to help me find the lost ones outside. ”
That's true, but everyone knows it in their hearts. It's one thing to find it, but it's another thing to find it.
There were a total of forty-four people, and after escorting the king of Zhennan back to Beijing, there were only about a dozen people left, which shows how tragic the fighting along the way was. These people can be said to have sacrificed for the Zhou family and the king of Zhennan. This kind of loyalty is really moving.
"Captain Li will also go down and eat something first, right?" Gu Wanyin suggested softly. The first to walk to the door, instructed Bi Mei to go to the kitchen first to tell people to quietly make some food, naturally, they all chose the fastest to do, at this time they did not pay attention to the delicacies of the mountains and seas, just to fill their stomachs.
Li Duwei retreated, so only Gu Wanyin was left in the room. Princess Zhou Ruijing and the unconscious King Zhennan.
The princess sat beside King Zhennan, tears fell in a puff, and after only calling "Lord Wang......" in a low voice, she choked up and couldn't speak. Anyone who sees this scene will feel sad. Also, it's only been a year apart, and when we meet again, it's like this, how can I not make people sad?
The princess's tears even fell on the face of King Zhennam. But the king of Zhennan didn't react at all. I don't know if at this time, King Zhennan can hear the call of the princess?
Gu Wanyin quietly turned her back and wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, but she didn't dare to make a sound, lest she make the princess more and more sad.
Zhou Ruijing silently reached out and grabbed her shoulder and patted her silently. It's kind of appeasement. Gu Wanyin looked up at him - he was afraid that he was not comfortable at this time, right? So Suo Xing took his hand and nodded to him gently. Although she didn't say anything, she believed that Zhou Ruijing understood what she meant.
"Those guards who sacrificed for their father, the appeasement of each family naturally does not need to be said. In addition, I also want to try to find their bones, if there is someone in the family, we will send them back for burial, if there is no family, we will buy a piece of land and bury them there together, which is also our gratitude to them. Gu Wanyin said softly. The reason why I mentioned it at this time was because I wanted to share the princess's heart, and secondly, I was afraid that there would be no such opportunity in the future.
Looking at the king of Zhennan, who was lying on the Luohan bed and couldn't move, like a living dead, Gu Wanyin felt panic in her heart.
"Naturally, it should be." The princess raised her head when she heard this, with tears in her eyes, "They lost their lives for my Zhou family, and it is natural to do this." After a while, the princess suddenly said hatefully: "If I let me know who poisoned him, I will not spare him!" Such a princess has a cold face and awe-inspiring eyes, and has an aura of not being angry and arrogant. And the ruthlessness revealed in his eyes is particularly shocking.
Gu Wanyin nodded, such a person is the enemy of the Zhou family, so naturally he can't let it go easily.
Although Zhou Ruijing didn't speak, she knew in her heart that Zhou Ruijing's thoughts were the same as those of her and the princess. Once it is known who the real murderer is, then that person will face the wrath of the entire Zhou family. Zhou Ruijing is not a soft-hearted person, otherwise he would not have earned a reputation on the battlefield at a young age, and he would have won such a title.
"I don't know how much I know about my father's return?" Gu Wanyin pondered for a moment before raising her head and asked. The murderer or something, you can find it slowly, but the problem they have to face in front of them is not only this. The most important thing is that since King Zhennan has returned to the capital, it is natural to do everything possible to protect the safety of King Zhennan. And...... You have to think of something to make King Zhennan better. You can't just lie like this all the time, can you?
Zhou Ruijing said in a deep voice: "It's impossible that no one knows. Since there are people blocking it along the way, it is bound that this matter is under the noses of others. Perhaps, the other party deliberately let his father return to the capital; Don't forget, as a general defending the city, you can't come back without permission, especially when the two armies are fighting. "At this time, if I really want to be investigated, the Zhou family will also be held responsible.
"If that's the case, then I'm afraid I can't hide the news of my father's return to Beijing." Gu Wanyin said with some hesitation. glanced up at Zhou Ruijing, and then saw a flash of light in Zhou Ruijing's eyes.
Zhou Ruijing actually laughed slowly-"I didn't plan to hide it." Early tomorrow morning, I will enter the palace. ”
"You mean......" Gu Wanyin understood what he meant, and immediately felt that this was indeed a good idea. If this is the case, it is impossible to say that it is to die and be reborn. Now the biggest threat to the Zhou family is the trumped-up crime of treason. But what if the king of Zhennan is in the capital? Or is it like this? Naturally, then, this crime is not established. What about escaping from the battlefield? As long as the saint still cares about the old feelings and is not stupid, then the Zhou family will only reprimand at most, but it will not hurt the muscles and bones.
On the contrary, the person who chased and killed the king of Zhennan should be careful. Once seriously investigated, this matter is not a piece of paper.
Zhou Ruijing's method can't be said to be able to disrupt the other party's deployment. Count it all in one fell swoop.
The princess also very much agreed with this method, and immediately said: "Since this is the case, then I will enter the palace with you tomorrow." ”
Zhou Ruijing nodded. Gu Wanyin also nodded: "Since that's the case, then let's go together." ”
Unexpectedly, the princess shook her head: "There can't be no one at home, whether it's sunset or the prince, you have to be taken care of." ”
"Otherwise, I will enter the palace, and my mother will stay at home." Gu Wanyin said again. I don't know what I'll encounter when I enter the palace, the princess is in such a state now, I'm afraid she won't be able to cope with it.
The princess smiled, "I know that you also feel sorry for me, but I am the wife of the prince, who will I go if I don't go?" You can only take care of the prince for me at home with peace of mind. Speaking of which, the prince hasn't seen the sunset yet. Ay...... I don't know, can he still open his eyes and take a look at our little sunset......"
Gu Wanyin thought about it, and it was the same reason, but she didn't insist on going. just listened to the princess's words, but for no reason she was sad. It's no wonder that the princess is depressed, the current appearance of King Zhennan is indeed not half confident. It's just that no faith is no faith, she still comforted softly: "That's not what I said, mother, don't be discouraged." Father Ji Ren Tianxiang, naturally there will be no problem. ”
The princess nodded, then glanced at the hour, and hurriedly urged the two to go back: "The hour is not early, you can go back first." Since you are going to enter the palace tomorrow, you naturally have to prepare. ”
Gu Wanyin and Zhou Ruijing nodded, and then withdrew. All the way back to her house, she saw that Zhou Ruijing didn't mean to rest, but she knew a little, and she didn't persuade him to say anything at the moment, but just put on the clothes one by one for him, and tied a cloak, and then said softly: "Go ahead." ”
"Well, then you can sleep by yourself, you don't have to wait for me." Zhou Ruijing left such a sentence and hurried away.
Since you are going to enter the palace tomorrow, you have to write an excerpt, and as for how to write it, it is natural to think about it. And how to say and do it after entering the palace, these must be thought out in advance. No matter what, only if the Holy Lord believes in King Zhennan, that is the best.
It's just that how can Gu Wanyin sleep? Thinking of the appearance of King Zhennan and the words of Li Duwei, she felt like she had pressed a big stone in her heart, and she couldn't relax no matter what.
