Chapter 33 The Fall of Changzhou
This time Li Lang didn't feel that she was mocking him, he knew that she was really uncomfortable, he wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to speak, he hadn't said anything polite to her for a long time, and he didn't seem to be able to open his mouth in the face of her.
He stood in her room for a long time before he said, "There will be another child." ”
She looked at him with a very resentful look, and then continued to sit with her head down, and Li Lang felt bored, so he withdrew from the room.
Li Lang's words were cold over the cold wind of the whole winter, he didn't know that his words had crushed the last straw in her heart, her expectations for life and the future were cut off by this sentence, she married a cold-blooded and ruthless person, their children were gone, he actually said lightly, there will be, at that moment she was dead to him, to the entire Guogong Mansion, she can't live with such a person for a lifetime, she can't stay in this indifferent mansion, every moment here is a torment for her.
Gu Qi'er wants to get out of this place that makes her suffer a lot, just like it is always very easy for bad people to do a bad thing, and it is very difficult for good people to do something.
Gu Qi'er found Li Lang first, she knew that he didn't love her, and that Yun Niang, they were probably looking forward to her leaving, she hoped to be able to reconcile with him, or he could write a letter of resignation, Li Lang looked at her in surprise, as if he didn't expect her to have such a request, he tore up the pen and paper she brought, he asked her not to be delusional, he said that he would not leave her, nor would he divorce her, he asked her to stay in Xishui Yuan honestly.
Probably because she is still useful to them, Gu Qier had to ask for help from her mother's family, Gu Qier has rarely gone back since she married into the Guogong Mansion, this time she slipped the tire, Li Lang personally offered to send her back to relax.
The two were silent all the way, Li Lang tried several times to ease the embarrassing atmosphere, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything, Gu Qi'er twisted her head to the side, she didn't look back at him from beginning to end, she sat quietly in the carriage, and the noisy world around her couldn't hide the sadness in her heart, if she had any expectations for him, everything disappeared from the moment she slipped the tire.
She agreed to go back with him, but she just wanted to take this opportunity to ask her father for help, she thought that she had fallen into such a field, and her father would always have some pity for her, she still remembered when her father taught her to read and read when she was a child, and she knew that her father really loved her.
The two came to the Hou Mansion together, the news of her slippery tire had reached the Hou Mansion on the second day, her mother, the second lady saw her very distressed and hugged her and cried, Gu Hou Ye was not as majestic as before, he said to her that it was good to come back, at that moment all her grievances were like suddenly finding a flood outlet, she hugged her mother and cried loudly.
Since she left the Hou Mansion, she has never been happy, but she doesn't dare to cry, her grievances, her discomfort can only be held in her heart.
On the second day of Gu Qi'er's stay in the Hou Mansion, when Li Lang left the mansion, she knelt in front of her father again, begging her father to help her reconcile, or to get a letter of resignation.
"Our Gu family can't afford to lose this person!" Gu Hou Ye shook his sleeves and left.
Same place, same words.
Gu Qi'er could only beg her mother, but her mother would only hold her and cry, she cried and said that if she was divorced back, she would never marry again, she said that there would be another child, and what her mother said was the same as what Li Lang said, Gu Qi'er found out that the child who was beating in her belly for six months was so worthless to them.
She didn't go to ask her father and mother again, and the married woman was divorced and went home, which was humiliating, she knew it, and she couldn't accept such a thing in the whole Chen country.
On the day she left Gu's Mansion, she kowtowed to Gu's Mansion three times, "My daughter is not filial, and she can't always be filial by her father's mother's side, so I ask my father and mother to take care of it." ”
Gu Qi'er looked back at Gu Mansion before getting into the carriage, where she had lived for more than ten years, she was so happy in the past, although she was a concubine, but fortunately, she had her father's love, but since she stepped out of the Hou Mansion, these happiness have disappeared, she wants to go back to her childhood, back to when her father carried her, but everything can't go back, she always longed to grow up when she was a child, but when she grew up, she found that she had lost her happiness.
Gu Qi'er quietly wiped a handful of tears, turned around and got into the carriage, her mother stood at the door of the Hou Mansion with tears in her eyes, she didn't dare to look at her, she was afraid that a glance would make her reluctant to leave.
Through the curtain of the carriage, she looked at the lively Qingyang City, the fortune teller on the Qingyang Bridge was still standing there, the bridge head was still the old man who sold fish, she had eaten the fish there, the fish was fragrant and less thorny, a few beggars gathered in front of the gate of Qingyang City as before, they were holding a broken bowl, wearing tatters, Gu Qi'er asked the groom to stop the carriage, she walked down from it, took out all the silver taels on her body and gave them them, those beggars knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed.
"Living Bodhisattva, Living Bodhisattva. ”
She looked sad, the Bodhisattva is to save people, but she can't save herself.
This Hou Mansion and this familiar Qingyang City are dreams that she can't come back to.
Gu Qi'er returned to the Guogong Mansion again, she stood at the door of the Guogong Mansion and hesitated for a moment before stepping in, Yun Niang saw Li Lang coming back, and hurriedly led the two children to him and said, "The children miss their father." ”
Li Lang squatted on the ground and looked at the two children with a doting face, their little hands were red from the cold, he covered their hands with his own hands, Gu Qi'er stood aside and looked at Li Lang, he looked very much like a good father.
If his child was born, he would be so cute, but he didn't even have the opportunity to come into this world.
Gu Qi'er quietly returned to her Xishui Garden, Li Lang didn't even notice that she had left, the room in Xishui Garden had been placed by the maid in advance, the room was warm, but Gu Qi'er still felt very cold, the heart was cold, she knew that her heart was cold.
Li Lang is still staying at Yun Niang's place as before, too, there are two lovely children there, and she only has her cold face here, cold and piercing.
She kept looking through the little shoes she had sewn with her own hands, and there was a little tiger on them, which she had sewn for a long time, and she held it tightly in her arms, tears dripping down the vamp.
Gu Qi'er didn't hold on in the end, when the second heavy snow fell in Chen Guo, she sneaked out of the house, holding the hairpin picked up from the ashes of Song Ming in her hand, and jumped into the lake in Changzhou City, the icy lake water instantly submerged her small body, this Changzhou never brought her a trace of warmth, and even the last departure was just as cold.
But finally she didn't have to look at this cold world anymore.
The watchman who was on patrol at night saw someone falling into the water and hurriedly reported to the official, but the official officials searched for a night but did not find anyone.
On the second day, the Guogong Mansion found that Gu Qi'er was gone, Li Lang hurriedly went to the lake to look for it, the surface of the lake that had snowed heavily overnight was covered with a thick layer of ice, and the ground around the lake was covered with heavy snow, how could there be any human figure, he sent someone to break the ice on the surface of the lake, and tested the temperature of the lake with his hands, and the biting cold penetrated into the cracks of the bones.
Li Lang did not have the courage to go into the water himself, he stood by the lake and watched the servants in the palace, groping in the cold and biting water, they searched for a long time but found nothing.
Li Lang thought that maybe she didn't jump in, she just went out for a walk, and when she was in a better mood, she would naturally come back, and then he would apologize to her again, and the matter would be over.
But he didn't wait for Gu Qi'er, Gu Qi'er was like evaporating from the world, after Gu Houye heard the news of Gu Qi'er's disappearance, he sent people to search for him in Qingyang City and Changzhou, but Gu Qi'er was never found, and Gu Mansion and Li Fu also fought endlessly......
The third fragment picked up by Nanyan Xue Lingzhi is a very vague memory, Gu Qi'er stood by the lake for a long time, she looked at the direction of Qingyang City, sad and helpless, she couldn't go back to this life after all, she chose to come to the lake outside the mansion, just because she wanted to completely break away from the Guogong Mansion, even if she was a dead soul, she didn't want to wander in the Guogong Mansion.
Gu Qi'er stood for a while, jumped down with the hairpin in her hand, her body quickly lost temperature and became stiff, the cold lake water did not pass over her head, her consciousness gradually disappeared, as if there was a bright world waiting for her in the distance, she closed her eyes and let the lake take her to that bright world.
Gu Qi'er didn't know that the bright world in her eyes was Song Ming casting spells by the lake, Song Ming was a snake demon who had been cultivating for thousands of years, that day he was sealed by several Taoist priests and tied to the stump of a tree, a fire burned his body, Song Ming saw that he couldn't escape and gave up his body to flee for his life, and a body ruined his Taoism for hundreds of years.
He once stole a blood spirit bead, the blood spirit bead is a thing in the demon world, it is extremely vicious, and the blood spirit array opened with the blood spirit bead can help him recover the exercises, but there is only one point, the blood spirit bead must be opened with the blood of a living person.
Song Ming is not a demon who loves to kill, hundreds of years is not worth mentioning to him, in his long time, he doesn't know how many hundreds of years have passed, as long as he cultivates again, he can reshape his body, so he has not activated the blood spirit bead.
But now he had to use it, he had secretly cast a spell on Gu Qi'er, so that he could track her life and death, the life span of mortals was particularly short, he was afraid that he would not know the day she left, so he secretly cast a spell, but he thought that it would happen at least a few decades later, so he stayed in Dayao Mountain to cultivate with peace of mind.
That night, the night Gu Qi'er jumped into the lake, he felt Gu Qi'er's gradually disappearing life just after he finished cultivating.
It's only been more than two years, he doesn't know what happened, her life will fall in advance, he has seen ten miles of red makeup in front of the Gu Mansion, she is covered with a bright red hijab, holding a fan in her hand and walking in front of her husband, he secretly followed her marriage team, all the way to the Changzhou border, if he can live a stable life without her, he will be satisfied, he decided not to bother her anymore, he just wants her to be happy.
But now it seems that she is not happy.
Song Ming anxiously found the blood spirit bead that he had hidden......
