Chapter 155: A Portrait of a Faceless Woman
When I got up early in the morning, I was gone, and the palace maid said that the national teacher went to the morning court.
Gu Liuxi walked around the place where he lived boredly, and found that there was a large plum forest in the backyard, maybe it was not yet the flowering season, and the plum blossoms had not bloomed.
Walking in, it's like you're in a fantasy world.
In the middle of that large plum forest, there is a small bamboo house.
Gu Liuxi walked over with curiosity.
"Is there anyone?"
The surroundings were unusually quiet, and there seemed to be no one, but Gu Liuxi knocked on the door based on politeness.
I waited for a long time, but no one answered.
There should be no one inside.
Although he knew that it was wrong to enter the door without the owner's consent, Gu Liuxi was forced by curiosity to gently push the door open.
The door was unlocked and opened with a slight push.
The bamboo furniture in the room is the most eye-catching, and the picture scroll hanging on the wall is the most eye-catching.
The background of the picture scroll is the endless grassland with green mountains and green waters, and a young man in a snow-white costume stands on it.
The white satin is embroidered with a variety of delicate white bird pictures, the long black silk-like hair is half coiled into a cloud bun, half hangs down on the shoulders, and a delicate phoenix hairpin is inserted in the cloud bun, making the painted girl look elegant and noble.
As for drawing people's faces...... It's unreal.
The whole painting is painted with verve, but the face is not depicted.
It's a faceless portrait that gives a sense of horror.
Seeing this portrait for the first time, Gu Liuxi's heart seemed to be pinched by a wireless needle, which was particularly uncomfortable.
I don't know why, when she saw this portrait, she had a distressed illusion.
Two lines of tears fell down her delicate face, splashed on the ground and shattered into pieces.
Gu Liuxi blinked, a little confused about his inexplicable reaction.
Stretched out his hand and touched his face, it was wet.
She actually cried.
I just thought it was a faceless portrait.
What's going on?
"How did you get here?"
A voice suddenly sounded behind Gu Liuxi, Gu Liuxi hurriedly wiped away her tears with her arms, turned around, it turned out to be the little palace maid waiting beside the national teacher, she lowered her head, panicked like a child who had done something wrong, "I'm sorry, I just walked in and walked in." ”
"You'd better get out of here! In this place, the national teacher does not allow anyone to come in, so you should pretend that you didn't see anything today! The palace maid was very anxious and pulled Gu Liuxi out of the small bamboo house and took her out of Merlin all the way.
"I would like to ask why no one is allowed in here?"
Gu Liuxi was really curious, why the national teacher didn't allow others to come here.
If she was not mistaken, there was a small line written in the lower corner of the painting, for the beloved wife, Xi.
Why is it for the beloved wife, Brook.
Is it a portrait painted by the national teacher for his beloved wife?
Why didn't he draw his face, hang a faceless portrait in such a secret place, and not allow anyone to come in.
What's the secret?
The palace maid shook her head, "For the past three years, the national teacher has not allowed anyone to come in except for asking me to take care of the sanitation here every day, and I don't know why, but the national teacher used to stay in that place often, and he stayed for a long time before coming out, and no one knew what he was doing inside, and he didn't allow others to go in and disturb him." ”
"That's it! Then I'll look elsewhere! ”
Maybe this palace maid really didn't know anything, Gu Liuxi didn't embarrass her, just glanced deeply at the merlin and turned to leave.
The woman who is his beloved wife, the portrait of the brook will not be the woman who is deeply loved by the national teacher.
If it's someone you love deeply, why don't you draw her face.
For some reason, when she thought that the national teacher already had a woman she loved in her heart, her heart felt particularly uncomfortable and faintly sour.
knew that she was not in the same world as him, but when she knew that he liked another woman, her heart still felt hurt.
She couldn't help but think, what would a woman like like a perfect man like a national teacher?
A woman who can be so cared about by the national teacher must not be an ordinary woman!
Gu Liuxi couldn't help but feel a little jealous in her heart, which caused her to go insane all day, and she didn't even know when the national teacher would come in.
"What are you thinking?"
When Wuwei's voice appeared in her ears coldly, she was startled.
"You...... When did you come in? ”
Wuwei glanced at her lightly, "When you were in a daze." ”
"Ah......" Gu Liuxi opened her mouth wide, then hasn't he been here for a long time, damn it, she didn't even notice it, so she was in a stupid daze in front of him for so long.
"You...... Did you come to me for something? ”
"There is indeed something." Wu Wei is truthful.
Gu Liuxi just asked casually, but he didn't expect that he really had something to find him, and his expression subconsciously fluttered for a second before he came back to his senses, "Huh...... What are you looking for from me? ”
"Let's go back! The Royal Palace is not a place for you to stay. ”
"Go back?"
It took Gu Liuxi ten seconds to understand that the national teacher's words meant to let her go back to the General's Mansion, and subconsciously refused, "I won't go back now." ”
"Then when are you going to go back, do you really plan to stay in the palace all the time, do you really think that your identity can be very secretive? If the emperor really wants to check your identity, he can find out in minutes, and it won't do you any good if you stay here..."
Too many things have happened recently, and he has no time to take care of her now, only by letting her go back to her original place, the General's Mansion may be able to keep her safe.
He didn't want her to be too dazzling, maybe she could be ordinary, which would be a good thing for him.
Perhaps, it is better for her to change back to the second lady of the Gu family's vase than now, at least she was not outstanding and unknown before, and it was also a way to save her life.
What did he say?
Gu Liuxi was stunned for what Wu Wei said, and couldn't believe that she was so useless in his mind.
He's underestimating her, he's insulting her...
Crystal tears gradually filled her eyes, but she forced her to go back.
Gu Liuxi is also a strong person, she raised her little face at him, and told him clearly, "I won't go back, I don't care what my identity is, since someone needs me, I want to stay here." ”
Although this is an excuse, it is the only reason she insists on.
Wuwei had a mocking expression on his face, "Is the person you said about needing you referring to the Seventeenth Princess?" How much do you know about her, she only thinks you are curious for a while, so she will keep you by her side, and she will protect you like this because she finds something interesting in you, and when she doesn't need you that day, when she is no longer curious about you, she will throw you away like garbage..."
Gu Liuxi smiled, but there was a hint of poignancy in her smile, "What about garbage, at least I'm still useful garbage, at least I'm still attractive to the seventeenth princess now, she will defend me, she will protect me so desperately, this proves that my garbage is very important, isn't it?" ”
Regarding Gu Liuxi's stubbornness, Wuwei's face was gloomy and frightening.
This woman, she really doesn't know whether she is alive or dead.
Did she really think that the palace was such a good place to mingle?
This is not a barracks, it is full of intrigues. Did she really think she could live in this palace full of black miasma?
The emperor's spearhead was the first to target her, thinking that her appearance at the princess's side had a conspiracy and purpose.
She is now the number one person in the palace, and the more she is in the limelight in the palace, the faster she will die.
She has been in the limelight in the palace in the past few days, because she was favored by the princess, she suddenly became a dazzling figure in the palace, and at the same time, she also became the object of envy of others, and something will happen sooner or later.
Why can't she be obedient!
Why does she always do everything as she wants, completely recklessly.
"Forget it, whatever you want." He has done his duty, and if she doesn't listen to persuasion, he can't do anything.
After Gu Liuxi gave in, he felt particularly aggrieved.
The atmosphere between the two was very serious, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
The palace maid came in and looked at the two of them with some uneasiness, swallowed her saliva, and said cautiously: "National teacher, the seventeenth princess and the seventh prince ask to see you." ”
Is it coming so soon?
Wuwei glanced at Gu Liuxi lightly, and said expressionlessly: "Since the seventeenth princess has arrived, you can also stay!" ”
The Seventeenth Princess and Blue Mountain Yucha came hand in hand.
The seventeenth princess saw that Gu Liuxi still had a bandage around her neck, and she was distressed, "West Guard, are you okay?" ”
Gu Liuxi bowed her head to the seventeenth princess and saluted, "Back to the princess, the slave is fine." ”
The seventeenth princess obviously felt that Gu Liuxi didn't seem to be very happy, so she turned to the national teacher, "May I ask the national teacher, when can I take my guards away?" ”
"The princess has only been in less than a day, so wouldn't this be too hasty? Everything has to be done step by step. Wuwei's face was smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes.
"It's not that the national teacher is clever, why can't you figure out who my guards are?" There was obvious irony in the words of the seventeenth princess.
In the palace, there are only two people who dare to be disrespectful to the national teacher, one is the princess in front of her, who has never looked at the princess, and the second is the Blue Mountain Yucha who is standing behind the princess at the moment.
The good relationship between the seventeenth princess and the seventh prince is known to everyone in the entire palace, and it is also the only reason why the seventeenth princess does not like the national teacher because of the relationship between the national teacher and the seventh prince.
The words of the seventeenth princess completely woke up Wuwei.
He knows the geography of the sky, can budget the future and the past, and can do anything, and the only thing he can't calculate is Gu Liuxi's life, maybe her life has a lot to do with him, so he can't calculate her future.
