The Rebirth of the Bamboo Horse Emperor

Seeing that his uncle was really angry, Gu Jue quickly admitted his mistake, "I won't dare next time."

Yu Feng slapped him again.

Gu Jue could only smile embarrassingly.

"Is there a next time? From now on, no one is allowed to act alone!" Yu Feng said angrily.

That's not acceptable, the Third Highness may be in danger!

Gu Jue looked at him pitifully.

Yu Feng was even more troubled by him. This child has been very well-behaved since he was a child, and he can be regarded as watching him grow up. How can he become so worrying when he grows up?

"I don't know how many people the other party has, but since they have the ability to collude with foreign enemies, they should not be underestimated." Gu Jue insisted, "If the reinforcements really have an accident and the third prince is among them, how can I explain to the emperor? ?”

"The Jinling Army are all strong in martial arts. Isn't the royal family raising them just to protect the royal family?" Yu Feng persisted, "If you are really worried, I will go there for you."

"No, I have to go in person."

"no!"

Gu Huaixi wanted to say something, but in the end he just pursed his lips and said nothing.

He just looked at Yu Feng with aggrieved and longing.

After a while, Yu Feng couldn't take it anymore, so he had to give in and said, "Forget it, you are the chief general, and I can't stop you from doing anything you want to do. But you must be extremely careful when you go, and you must not reveal your identity on the way."

If it wasn't for the military camp where he needed to take charge of the overall situation, he would go with him no matter what.

Even though he is strong in martial arts and difficult to have an opponent, he still can't help worrying, just like worrying about his own children.

Hearing what he said, Gu Jue quickly explained, "Uncle, the third prince is my childhood friend, and I am really worried about his safety."

Mentioning this, Yu Feng suddenly became angry.

At that time, he followed Gu Nan to attack Dongyi, and the emperor suddenly ordered to take Gu Jue to the palace as a companion.

It is said to be accompanying reading, but it is just a proton.

Although she returned to the mansion completely, she was no longer as cute as before.

Holding a broken sword that no one is allowed to touch, he only knows how to practice martial arts every day, and shut himself in the practice room.

Finally, when I was 14 years old, the Kansai war broke out.He took the broken sword, knelt on the ground and asked Gu Nanxing to lead troops to the expedition.

Only later did he know that what he had been holding in his hand was the rumored short-lived sword.

What's wrong with the emperor's old man rewarding him, why do he have to reward this?

I heard Gu Jue say again, "When I was in the palace, the concubine Chen and His Highness were very kind to me, if something unexpected happens..."

Yu Feng had heard him talk about various affairs in the palace a long time ago. Of course, some of them were said and some were left unsaid.

Although it is still reluctant, it really shouldn't be left alone.

"I see, you can just go with peace of mind and leave the affairs of the barracks to me." Yu Feng said.

"Thank you uncle."

"It's getting late, go and rest, we have to leave tomorrow." Yu Feng patted him on the shoulder.

"Well, you can also rest, I'll go back now." Gu Jue turned around and left after speaking.

Yu Feng looked at his back for a long time, finally just sighed, and fell asleep in a hurry.

In the early morning of the second day, Gu Jue said that he was recuperating in the tent, and no one was allowed to call or disturb him.All the things in the general camp and the commander's seal were handed over to Yu Feng.He set off before dawn.

He only wore the plain clothes of an ordinary man, brought a bag of dry food and a water bottle, took the Dongxi sword, and rode away on his horse.

After driving for a day and barely sleeping last night, Gu Jue had no choice but to find an inn in a small town to stay.

He did not go to the suburbs, but chose the road in the city.

He is still at the boundary of Lingzhou, and he will not be able to arrive at Qingzhou until tomorrow.No matter how fast the reinforcements left, they would only leave Yizhou at most, so he didn't worry about missing it, as long as he went to the suburbs tomorrow.

What's more, for the convenience of traveling alone, he didn't bring anything, and he couldn't camp in the wild.

After asking the shopkeeper for a room, he gave the horse to Xiaoer and told him to tie it up.

"This young man is so handsome!"

"Looking at the age of sixteen or seventeen, she must not be married yet!"

A young lady who looked like a wealthy family said to the boy beside her.

The business of this store is quite good, and there are not a few young ladies from wealthy families.

The moment they saw Gu Huaixi, they agreed to discuss it together.

Ignoring the amazed eyes and whispers of the diners in the lobby, Gu Jue went straight to his room.

Called Xiao Er to bring up a bucket of hot water, wiped his body hastily, and planned to fall asleep.

Suddenly hearing a knock on the door, Gu Jue had no choice but to get up from the quilt he had just shaken off.

After the door opened, there stood a smiling and kind woman.

……

"Young master, didn't you disturb your rest, did you? My lady has something I want to give you." As he spoke, he stuffed a handkerchief embroidered with silk flowers into Gu Huaixi's hand.

It also exudes a faint fragrance of powder.

Gu Jue sighed inwardly, and returned the handkerchief to the woman.

"I already have a sweetheart, and I'm afraid your lady's kindness will not be appreciated."

I don't know when I may die suddenly, let alone get married.

"My lord, don't lie to me. My young lady is as good as a fairy, and she is knowledgeable and sensible. Why don't you talk about it after a meeting?"

"I'm leaving to pick up my sweetheart to marry me, auntie should go back." Gu Jue said.

After speaking, in order to convince her, he raised the sword by his side and handed the sword spike to her.

This is not the real sword spike, just a silver chain hanging awkwardly on the hilt, with a silver leaf hanging down.

Looking inside, you can still see a light blue.

"This is a token of love with my sweetheart. Madam can go back now."

The woman looked at the sword tassels for a long time, and felt that the workmanship was very fine. Her own lady only knows how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is afraid that she will be compared to the needleworkers!

"I'm bothering you, my lord. Then I'll come back tomorrow." The woman was finally willing to leave, and planned to explain to her young lady and listen to her thoughts.

Gu Jue nodded, but didn't mention that he was leaving early tomorrow morning.

Lying on the bed, Gu Jue held Dongxi Sword in his arms, thinking about it, and the drowsiness suddenly disappeared.

"Dongxi, do you think that if His Highness knows that I have such thoughts for him, will he be so angry that he can't even be friends with me?"

His rhetoric was not just because he wanted to persuade people to leave.

He knew that His Highness the Third Highness wanted to be the crown prince, so receiving the sword bestowed by the emperor was bound to become his help.

It doesn't matter if you lose your life.

At first, even he himself didn't know why he wanted to help him so much.

Later, when he was 12 years old, Zhou Ming told him anecdotes and strange things that happened everywhere as usual.

"I heard that the minister of the Ministry of War has married a new man, who is more beautiful than a woman!"

Gu Jue's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, "Can a man marry a man?"

"Why not, as long as the two people are of the same mind, there is no prohibition of intermarriage between men in Da Yu's law." Zhou Ming said carelessly.

After thinking about it, he added, "But I think that the servant's wife is definitely not as beautiful as you! Hahaha!"

No time to pay attention to his indecency, Gu Jue's eyes are full of Jiang Mu.

It turns out that two men can also get married.

Only after that did he realize that he had fallen in love with the Third Highness without knowing when.

So he does have a sweetheart.

It's just that his sweetheart didn't know, and never planned to marry him.

Thinking that he is a majestic prince, he will definitely be the emperor in the future, and there are many concubines in the harem, how could he be willing to marry him?

The more Gu Jue thought about it, the more distressed she became.He can't live for a long time, and after helping him ascend the throne, he will resign and return to his hometown, so he can wait for death with peace of mind.

Thinking about it, Gu Jue fell asleep without knowing when.

Before dawn the next day, he led the horse and set off again.

Looking back at the inn where he stayed, he apologized to the lady last night in his heart and left.

Even if there is no sweetheart, it is impossible for him to get married and let a girl from a good family be a widow first and then a widow.

What's more, His Highness is waiting for him.

There must be no accidents, otherwise everything I have done over the years will be meaningless.

And His Highness the Third Highness, whom the sweetheart has been thinking of, is holding the Luoxi sword and inspecting it carefully.

While walking on the road just now, he suddenly felt a tremor in the side of his waist, and later found out that it was because of the sword.

Yin Mubai also poked his head over to look.

Jiang Mu gave up the idea of ​​discussing with him, and led the horse around Liu Mo.

"General Liu, my sword trembled unceasingly just now, you are well-informed, do you know why?" He had never seen such a thing in his two lifetimes.

Liu Wei was also very surprised to hear him say this, "Can your highness lend the sword to the lower officials?

Jiang Mu handed him the sword according to his words.

Liu Wei looked at it for a long while, and suddenly said solemnly, "As far as I know, only swords with sword souls can have this phenomenon. I don't know where the sword comes from, Your Highness?"

Jiang Mu was taken aback, and what he immediately thought of was the Dongxi Sword in Gu Jue's hand.

"When I was 16 years old, my concubine sent someone to find it and gave it to me." Jiang Mu said.

Liu Jie said, "However, this is just a rumor. It is said that after the death of Tai|Zu, his soul was divided into two parts, and entered into two swords to protect the country, and he continued to guard the peace of Yu Yu after his death. "

"But both swords are in the hands of the emperor, and no one has ever seen them, and we don't know whether they are true or not."

Jiang Mu nodded, knowing that he must have regarded his sword as one of the swords for protecting the country just now.

"Maybe I was too careful just now, let's continue on my way." Jiang Mu smiled casually.

"Yes."

Jiang Mu returned to the head of the team. Yin Mubai didn't follow him just now. He has never been interested in martial arts and kendo.

Jiang Mu put away his sword and said to him, "Ask you something?"

"What?" Yin Mubai yawned lazily.

"If you are injured by sword energy, is there any way to save it?"

The abnormality of Luoxi sword reminded him just now that Dong Xi recognized Gu Jue as the master, and the fierce sword energy would definitely hurt him.

Moreover, there is a rumor that he will not live to be 30 years old.

"Sword Qi?" Yinmu Baimu was puzzled, as if he didn't understand.

"Have you ever heard the rumors about Dongxi Sword?" Jiang Mu asked patiently.

Yin Mubai nodded, but still didn't understand why he asked this.

Jiang Mu said bluntly, "The Dongxi Sword is now in Huaixi's hands."

Yin Mubai's yawning mouth couldn't close it in shock.

He always thought that Gu Jue was conferred the title of Saint King because of his outstanding military exploits, and he once wondered how the emperor could be so generous.

Except for the royal family, people in the world only know that there is Dongxi Nishang, but they don't know that there is a holy king, so his reaction is also expected.

Yin Mubai is no longer lazy, he knows what Gu Jue means to Jiang Mu.

"I only know poison and antidote, and I have never dabbled in it." Yin Mubai said, "But I have read in books that there is a fruit called Zeyu, which is said to be able to cure all diseases."
