Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

Gu Xingyan mustered up his courage and finally pushed the girl away from him. He said calmly, "Miss Li, you're overthinking. I just added a bucket of water to these snacks. You can't say I made them."

Gu Xingyan's tone became very cold: "What I said just now was all lies. Haha, I didn't expect Miss Li to be so gullible and actually took it seriously. If I caused Miss Li to have any misunderstanding, then I apologize."

With tears still hanging on her face, Li Shuangwan looked at the man in front of her: "Gu Xingyan, look into my eyes."

Gu Xingyan turned around and said, "Miss Li, if you have eaten well, I will have someone prepare a tent for you. After you have rested, go back to Northern Jin tomorrow. This is Daliang, not a place for a Northern Jin person like you to stay."

Li Shuangwan walked up to Gu Xingyan and looked up at him: "Gu Xingyan, look into my eyes and say it again."

Gu Xingyan turned his head away and said, "I'll say this a hundred times. Miss Li is the eldest daughter of the Northern Jin Dynasty's general's mansion. I'm the prince of Daliang, and the commander of the Canglang Army. You, a foreigner, shouldn't be here."

"You are now the adopted daughter of Duke Shu of Daliang. No one will dare to do anything to you when you return to Northern Jin. Miss Li is a smart person. She should know what to do."

Gu Xingyan's tone was cold, but his words still implied that he was considering Li Shuangwan.

After saying this, he strode out without giving Li Shuangwan any chance to speak.

However, just as he reached the door, he bumped into Morin who was rushing in.

Gu Xingyan was tall and slender, and Mo Lin's nose hit his chin.

Gu Xingyan glanced at Mo Lin coldly in annoyance.

Mo Lin covered his bleeding nose and took two steps back: "Master, where are you going?"

Gu Xingyan lowered his icy brows and said, "Go prepare a tent for Miss Shu to rest. Then order someone to prepare two good horses and feed them well. Let Hongshuang take Miss Li away tomorrow."

"Ah?" Mo Lin let go of his hand in surprise, and blood from his nose flowed into his mouth. He quickly covered his mouth with his hands, "No, Master, didn't she just come? She came all the way to see you, how can you have the nerve to chase her away immediately?"

"If you can't handle this, you don't need to stay by my side anymore." Gu Xingyan said coldly.

Morin was very depressed. Why was he always the one who got hurt?

"Yes, I'll do it right away." Seeing that his master seemed very angry, Mo Lin felt that he must handle this matter properly, otherwise, he would really lose his job.

Li Shuangwan just stood behind him. After Gu Xingyan gave his instructions, he did not go out.

On the contrary, the momentum he had just had suddenly disappeared. He neither went out nor turned around. He just stood at the door curtain of the tent with his back to Li Shuangwan.

After a long time, the air seemed to have solidified, leaving only the sound of the wind whistling outside the tent.

After a long time, so long that Li Shuangwan's feet were cold, she walked towards him step by step, with an uncontrollable tremor in her voice: "Two lives and half a life."

"The body of a true dragon."

"Blood from the heart."

"A thousand arrows pierce my heart."

Gu Xingyan's body suddenly jolted, and he clenched his hands into fists, pressing himself tightly to force himself not to turn around and look at the girl.

"What are you talking about, Miss Li? I don't understand. I advise you not to waste time. Get some rest early so that you can set off early. The war is imminent, and I don't have time to waste time with you here."

"Don't you understand? Gu Xingyan, look into my eyes and tell me you don't understand these words!" Li Shuangwan rushed to Gu Xingyan and looked straight at him.

Tears kept rolling down her cheeks, but she just raised her head stubbornly, looking at the man who denied her again and again, letting the tears slide down her dusty face into her neck, causing her body to shiver.

It turns out that the north of Daliang is so cold, much colder than the northwest of Northern Jin.

Gu Xingyan clenched his fists, not daring to look into Li Shuangwan's eyes. He turned around and faced away from Li Shuangwan again.

"'I owe Wanwan a lot, and what I have done now cannot redeem even one of my sins'"

Li Shuangwan said word by word what Gu Xingyan said before he died, "Gu Xingyan, in your previous life, when thousands of arrows pierced your heart, the servant who was beside you was called Jia Cheng, right? He was the one who brought me to you two hours ago, so do you still want to deny it?"

Gu Xingyan didn't say anything, everything could no longer be hidden.

Li Shuangwan strode to him and suddenly ripped his clothes off with force.

Gu Xingyan couldn't help but take two steps back. He didn't expect Li Shuangwan to pull his clothes. He was completely unprepared.

The clothes were torn open, revealing his strong and broad chest.

A shocking scar on the right chest, winding across the heart, was exposed to the two of them.

She pointed at the scar and asked him, "What is this? Gu Xingyan, tell me, what is this?"

Gu Xingyan took two steps back, pulled the clothes from Li Shuangwan's hands, turned around and put them in place, with no emotion in his tone.

"I have been a secret guard in Northern Jin for ten years. I have fought with people and beasts. It's all about life. How can I not get hurt?"

Li Shuangwan turned to him again and said, "Okay! If that's the case, then, Gu Xingyan, do you dare to go with me to see Shu Wenbo and Liang Tianyou and let them see the scar on your heart?"

She suppressed her tears and said, "As long as they say that this scar was caused by you in Linshan, I will leave right now. You don't need to rush me."

Li Shuangwan grabbed his wrist and was about to pull him out the door.

Gu Xingyan lowered his head and stopped talking, and was unable to get Li Shuangwan to move even a little bit.

Li Shuangwan sneered: "It turns out that His Highness Gu Jiu also has times when he doesn't dare."

There was an indescribable emotion in Gu Xingyan's eyes as he stared at the woman in front of him.

The two of them just held hands and looked at each other, no one spoke.

Only when his eyes were sore and tears were flowing did Li Shuangwan lower his voice: "Isn't it just that there are only twelve years left? Isn't it that every time the poison takes effect, the pain is unbearable and I lose control?"

"Why, you are the Ninth Prince of Daliang, the commander of the 300,000-man Canglang Army, and you dare not even face this little difficulty?"

Gu Xingyan raised his head suddenly: "Miss Li..."

After a long while, he closed his eyes deeply and murmured, "How did you know? Did Master Sanqing tell you?"

Li Shuangwan shook his head: "Master, there is no need to tell me. Gu Xingyan, in fact, many times, concealing things may not necessarily solve the problem. If there is anything, it is better to speak it out."

"then you……"

"On the first day after my rebirth, I had a dream. In the dream, you set the Northern Jin Palace on fire. You stood in front of my tomb, turned yourself into a stone statue, and finally died from thousands of arrows piercing your heart."

"But your face in that dream was blurry and I couldn't see it clearly. It wasn't until New Year's Eve that I finally saw you clearly, but you were no longer by my side. You had returned to Daliang."
