Li Changfeng didn't say anything, but the disappointment in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

In the end, Li Changfeng didn't say anything and quietly retreated.

As a result, on the second day, when King Qin came back to his senses, re-established his ambition and vowed to fight hard, he found that Li Changfeng had also left.

At this moment, King Qin was really panicked. It has always been Li Changfeng who has given him advice, and he has come to this point. But I didn't expect that now Li Changfeng didn't care about him. King Qin was desperate, but he still didn't give up completely, and still gritted his teeth and found the deputy generals below to discuss countermeasures.

On the third day, the king of Qin left the army in disguise and went all the way north. But he left a large number of soldiers and horses on standby to fight against the pursuers sent by the prince.

However, I don't know if it was because of the fact that the king of Qin fled for five or six days, but he was caught and secretly escorted back to Beijing.

Gu Wanyin always remembered that on the day King Qin escorted him back to Beijing, the weather was not very good. The sky has always been overcast, but when King Qin entered the city, a thunderclap suddenly sounded, followed by a downpour—I don't know if it was to wash away the resentment and bloodshed in the capital, or to warn and punish King Qin.

It rained heavily for half a day.

The crown prince did not immediately dispose of King Qin, but only let people watch. Gu Wanyin estimated that it would be about after the crown prince ascended the throne.

Because of the rebellion of King Qin, the funeral of the saint was also delayed, and it was very simple. The day after King Qin was brought back to the capital, the second wife came to the door.

Gu Wanyin could probably guess what was going on, so she thought of finding a reason to send the second wife away. She didn't want to get involved, and she didn't want to get involved in it—most importantly, she didn't have to. Not just because of the inconvenience, but also because of the diaphragm in the heart.

The second wife knelt at the gate and refused to leave. Although Danzhi was angry and complained that the second wife was ignorant, he could only persuade Gu Wanyin: "The princess will see it, if you say something clear, it's just that." ”

Gu Wanyin was also helpless - the second wife knelt at the gate. It's really not good-looking, and it's easy to be talked about, so she had to nod: "Then let her in." But I knew very well in my heart, I was afraid that before the second wife came, she had thought about how to make her regress and let her accept this matter. That's why I put my face out and made such a move.

When the second wife came in, she saw Gu Wanyin, but she still knelt down without saying a word. Tears rolled down like beads of broken threads: "Princess Shizi, please save the second sister!" ”

Gu Wanyin frowned. Hurriedly glanced at Danzhi and Bimei. Danzhi and Bimei stepped forward to support the second wife together, and almost forcibly dragged the second wife up, pressed her on the chair and sat down. Danzhi was even more salty and stabbed: "What is the second wife doing?" You are an elder, and our princess is a junior; Isn't this to break the meat of our princess? Besides, you kneeling like this and not saying anything is wrong, which makes people think that you are blackmailing our princess. ”

The second wife's face turned pale, completely lost her former appearance, and she hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to beg-"

Gu Wanyin interrupted the second wife's words, and smiled on her face: "Second aunt, although we have split up, we are all descendants of the same ancestor in the end. Where is it said that you don't want to ask for it? I will naturally help if I can, but if I can't help, I can't do it, and I ask my second aunt to understand my difficulties. ”

Although Gu Wanyin's words were soft and smiling, the meaning was very strong to express her thoughts. Yes, he is also a descendant of the Zhou family, and he will not be stingy when it is time to help. But what shouldn't be helped or can't be helped, she has her own principles.

The second wife's face changed, and her eyes were full of despair, "Then you want to see death and can't be saved?" ”

Gu Wanyin shook her head, still amiable and angry, and was not angry because of the second wife's words: "It's not that I can't save myself when I die, and the second aunt should also understand my difficulties." Yuyan is just a woman, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is merciful. I don't know how to embarrass Yu Yan. But what does it mean that the second aunt came over like this and asked me and the prince to make a move? ”

The second wife frowned, with a look on her face that she wanted to be angry but didn't dare to be angry, and it took a long time before she said, "In order to save you, we Ruiming put half of our lives into it." Even if it's a reward, you shouldn't sit idly by—"

Gu Wanyin was stunned. Some didn't understand what the second wife meant. just didn't speak, just looked at the second wife and waited for her to continue.

When the second wife saw that she didn't speak, she thought that she was weak-hearted, and even thought that this was an opportunity, so she was busy and said: "In order to report the news to the prince, Ruiming was slashed by the prince's people, if it weren't for his life, I am afraid that he would have died on the spot!" That's it, he still insisted on going to report the news, if he went in time, how could the prince rush to save you at a critical time? Speaking of which, what if it wasn't Ruiming who saved you? You can't be so unconscionable......"

Gu Wanyin was a little stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect the second wife to lie about this, so it should be the truth. However, Zhou Ruijing didn't mention it when she went home, so she didn't know about it. Although he knew that Zhou Ruiming was injured, he didn't know why he was injured. I didn't expect it to be because of this. Looking at the second wife's accusatory and abusive look, she frowned, suppressed her emotions and said kindly: "Second aunt, one thing is one thing." How can I help Yuyan with this? Besides, now that the prince has not judged, it will not be too late to wait until the matter is settled. Rui Ming saved my life, and I am grateful to him, but when he saved me, I am afraid it was not to ask for a return, right? Rui Ming is a good one, thinking of the friendship between brothers, I and the prince are grateful to him. But there should always be a rule for everything, right? ”

Seeing that the second wife was about to say, her tone was a little heavier: "Of course, as relatives, we naturally won't really stand idly by when it's time to plead." It's just that no matter how much we have, we can't do it anymore. ”

The second wife wanted to open her mouth and scold again, but she was afraid that Gu Wanyin would really ask for nothing in the end, and she didn't even plead anymore, so she suppressed her anger and left with a calm face.

Gu Wanyin ordered someone to send some good medicinal materials to Zhou Ruiming, and she was naturally grateful to Zhou Ruiming in her heart. But it is not even necessary to be principled for this.

After Zhou Ruijing came back at night, she asked about it, and it was really similar to what the second wife said. Zhou Ruiming was indeed injured in order to ventilate the news. But the requirements for the second wife. Zhou Ruijing also disagreed: "If there is such a situation again, let the second aunt go back directly." Now that Ruiming is around him, it is the time for important people, and the second aunt is not idle. ”

Zhou Ruijing means that if the soft one doesn't work, the hard one will come;

Gu Wanyin nodded. Somewhat embarrassed: "In the past, I only felt that Ruiming was not responsible, but I didn't expect him to have this courage and determination." ”

Zhou Ruijing was silent for a moment and sighed: "The men of the Zhou family have no soft bones. "Zhou Ruiming is a little bit in front of the second wife, and Xingzi is also a little softer, but at the critical time, it can be seen that there is still blood xing.

"No, it's good for someone like the second master to have a son." Gu Wanyin thought of the second master's ugly face, and couldn't help but pout.

Speaking of the second master, Zhou Ruijing also sank his face, and only said after a long time: "This time, the second master should always die." By the way, Dow cut itself. Even Brother Qing and the firstborn daughter also accompanied him. It was Dow who did it himself. By the time I found it, I couldn't save it. ”

Gu Wanyin's eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly calmed down: "The second master has become like this, and the Tao family is only afraid that it will be indispensable." At this time, Tao probably knew that he couldn't escape, so he made the first move. I don't want to suffer. It's just that I pity the two children-"I don't know where Dow's ruthlessness comes from." As a mother, killing her own child with her own hands, Gu Wanyin only felt crazy. She couldn't understand Dow's thoughts anyway.

But since Dow is like this, what about the second master? Gu Wanyin looked at Zhou Ruijing, although she didn't speak, her eyes were urging.

Zhou Ruijing was concise: "It doesn't look good." "As for how bad it is, I don't say a word.

Gu Wanyin didn't want to say much when she saw him, so she stopped and didn't ask again. Thinking that Zhou Ruijing had gone out early and returned late in the past few days, he was a little distressed, touched his cheek and said, "Are you tired?" Or I'll pinch your shoulders for you? ”

Zhou Ruijing shook his head and refused, but just hugged her into his arms: "I'm afraid I'm going to be busy for a while and can't accompany you." You take care of yourself. ”

Gu Wanyin listened to this, her heart was warm, and she glanced at Zhou Ruijing: "Look at what you said." I'm not a child, so how can I take care of myself? Don't worry, for the sunset, for the sake of this in my stomach, I have to take good care of myself. Besides, I finally escaped my life, and I have to enjoy it in the future to live up to this great year. ”

Listening to her joking but serious words, Zhou Ruijing didn't mean to joke at all, but nodded solemnly: "It should be so." ”

The two hugged quietly for a while, and Zhou Ruijing talked about the prince's accession to the throne: "After the saint moves into the imperial tomb in five days, the prince will officially ascend the throne." At that time, it should be a general amnesty for the world, and your father's affairs will not be pursued. Your brother should also be promoted. It's just your uncle and third uncle...... I'm afraid it's going to be difficult in the future. Also, according to the holy will, there are several concubines to be buried together. Among them is your aunt Concubine Rong. ”

While speaking, Zhou Ruijing looked at Gu Wanyin's expression and saw that she was not unusual, so he exhaled slightly.

For these, Gu Wanyin just nodded and didn't say much. The only thing I talked about was Gu Congrui's promotion. This is the only way to make her happy. As for the rest, she can't say anything - she did everything she could at the beginning, whether it was a reminder or a side knock, but she couldn't do anything about the Gu family's big house and the third room.

In fact, as long as you don't lose Xing's life, it's already great.

After getting up the next day, Gu Wanyin was having breakfast, and Danzhi came over to say, "èrnǎi milk, I found it!" ”;
