I don't want to play anymore

When Gu Jingyuan said that sentence suddenly, the captain looked at him puzzled: "Master Hou?"

He didn't understand why Hou Ye suddenly mentioned this.

I don't understand what that means to Gu Jingyuan...

Half an hour passed.

Gu Jingyuan just came back to his senses, his lips were still trembling, he wanted to ask something, but found that he didn't know where to start.

because……

He doesn't remember.

The captain said he was sick, but he didn't remember.

During that time, he was in a daze, and Gu Jingyuan actually couldn't clearly recognize whether his body was good or bad.

Memory is also intermittent.

Most of the time it just hurts.

Body hurts.

My heart hurts too.

So he could only vaguely infer from the captain's words that it probably happened after he told Yang Jin his true identity.

Telling Yang Jin that he was Cheng Qi was not out of trust.

That was probably a self-defeating thought. After learning that his father was still sending people to hunt him down, wave after wave, causing countless troubles to Yang Jin and the others, he admitted it openly, and it didn't matter what the other party would do. How to deal with him.

He was still very closed back then.

As for what the lieutenant said... Gu Jingyuan couldn't remember even more.

It's true, he doesn't remember anything.

……

Under the concerned and guilty gaze of the other party, Gu Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered what to ask.

He asked: "Just now...why did you say that the emperor would send a large army to help me, in that case? If there had never been such a rumor, why would you think it was a misunderstanding..."

"You are Yang Jin's subordinate, so Yang Jin must know about this." Before the other party could answer, Gu Jingyuan muttered to himself again.

"So Yang Jin...he knew...he always knew that Long Yanzhao treated me..."

By the end, his voice had become very soft.

Almost inaudible.

The general who was kneeling on the ground raised his head in more surprise, his eyes filled with horror.

... So Lord Hou is... calling the emperor by his first name? ! !

He didn't know much about the relationship between Lord Hou and the emperor.

...Including the general, he actually doesn't know much about the three of them.

He was still very young at the time and didn't understand many things.

Knowing that the emperor might send a large army to rescue a sick and disabled boy, I just heard the general's words by accident.

The general's original words were "Never let the emperor know

This matter, otherwise he will probably ignore it and send a large army to rescue..." Probably like this.

It's been so long that he can't remember clearly.

Besides, he really didn't understand anything at that time.

So it was so easy to talk behind the back.

At that time, he couldn't imagine what absurd behavior the king of a country would do for a young man, so he shared the eavesdropped information with his partners and expressed his own opinions as a conversation piece after dinner.

He really didn't know that the sick and disabled boy was also in that yard at that time... He hid behind the rockery and listened quietly.

But he always remembered that it was a winter day.

When he and his companions walked around the rockery, the young man sitting there was as pale as paper, and his pretty face was carved out of ice and snow.

The boy saw him too.

He remembered that the young man was as dazed as he is now, with tear stains on the corners of his reddened eyes, and the tears fell straight down.

The young man said with a bewildered look: "You are right, how could the king of a country do it for me...not for me."

"..."

He was directly terrified by the boy's collapsed appearance.

Without even thinking about it, he ran away with his companions. At that moment, the general's personal guards were looking for the young man, so he showed him the way, and he was not worried about what would happen to the young man.

It's just that the more I think about it later, the more I'm afraid that the teenager will inform me and the general will punish me.

I spent a day in fear like that, but I didn't expect that not only did I not get the general's reprimand, but I heard the news that the boy was seriously ill with a high fever and fell into a coma again...

Later, for some reason, he was transferred to the Guangping King's camp to continue serving as a soldier, and the young man's dazed expression became a nightmare in his dreams.

Such a pure and innocent boy...

But she has a lifeless, lifeless, sad and heartbreaking appearance...

The teardrop that fell seemed to have pierced his heart.

He remembered that scene for many years.

So after seeing Lord Hou again, when he was amazed that the young man in those years was still growing straight and tenacious in the past so many years, the wrong thing he did when he was young began to torment him day and night again.

The captain also hesitated a lot before deciding to come over to plead guilty.

After telling all the situation he knew back then, the captain kowtowed again and admitted his mistake: "Forgive me, Lord Hou, what happened back then was all nonsense... The general really didn't know..."

"Get up." Gu Jingyuan said.

As he spoke, he looked away from the general.

Rely on

His wisdom, even though there are still many details that are not perfect, is enough for him to figure everything out.

Gu Jingyuan has nothing more to ask.

"Master Hou..." The school lieutenant refused to get up, but still buried his head on the ground.

Gu Jingyuan was still standing there, and said in a calm voice, "I don't blame you."

As he said that, he raised his steps again, walked forward, and walked away lightly.

The general did not do it on purpose, after so many years, it is impossible for Gu Jingyuan to pursue it.

He had heard too much gossip behind his back.But Gu Jingyuan never imagined that his former self would be so fragile... just because of one sentence.

A joke from a soldier.

He took it seriously.

...How disappointed is it to cry for this.

Today's Gu Jingyuan can't even imagine it.

The only thing that is certain is that even though he won't remember this incident in the future, what happened that night still cast a shadow in his heart.So many years later, after so many things happened, he never thought that it was Long Yanzhao...

Long Yanzhao didn't do nothing after receiving his request letter.

...He sent Yang Jin over there.

And according to what the captain said, Long Yanzhao also... has been caring about and asking about his condition.

Even if, even if...

At that time, he was murdered by his biological mother and almost lost his life.

Even though he was not in charge at that time, he was isolated and helpless in the court, and had no right to speak at all.

...But he still sent Yang Jin.

His most trusted, Yang Jin.

……

It's Long Yanzhao.

It turned out that Long Yanzhao...

Never gave up on him.

……

After leaving the captain, Gu Jingyuan's footsteps suddenly became a little vain.

His complexion became pale as paper again, and he had to lean on the wall to keep standing.

Gu Jingyuan stood leaning against the wall for a long time.

After a long time, he raised his head again, opened his eyes to look at the clear sky, and spoke to the nothingness: "The emperor...why didn't he tell me these things?"

He asked in a low voice.

But after a few breaths of silence, a thick male voice came from the illusory place: "Your Majesty is worried that you will suffer further harm."

Gu Jingyuan pursed his lips quietly.

The male voice continued: "Your Majesty does not want the general's image in your heart to be broken."

"...He is afraid that you will be sad."

Gu Jingyuan: "..."

No more doubts.

He walked straight to the direction of the martial arts field.

When he arrived, the emperor was on his side

On the field ahead, people were led to inspect all kinds of weapons and equipment in public.

Before the war, weapons and horses are always the most important.

Long Yanzhao always had to see it himself and check each one before he could rest assured.

Today's emperor still doesn't pay attention to any decency, and only wears a very ordinary black robe.

Even if you are far away, when you look at it, it is extremely eye-catching because of its tall stature.

Very recognizable.

Gu Jingyuan looked there for a long time.

Until Long Yanzhao, who had checked all the weapons, turned around...

The emperor's originally majestic and serious face instantly put on a smile, he smiled and walked towards Gu Jingyuan, his long eyebrows furrowed violently.

"Why didn't Ah Yuan go back to rest? The sun is so full, what should I do if I get sunburnt? Come back with me."

As he said that, Gu Jingyuan's wrist was grasped involuntarily.

The emperor's hands are big, and after being busy for a long time, he is already sweating all over his body, so even the palms of his hands are a little hot...

Gu Jingyuan didn't hide.

He was dragged obediently, and followed the emperor to move towards the tent.

His eyes were full of Long Yanzhao's broad back, and Gu Jingyuan followed the other's shadow honestly.

In fact, he also found something unusual.

I used to think that people are subject to change, especially when one ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, it is only normal that they will change.

So he didn't want to get to know the emperor, so after entering Beijing, he automatically thought that the country, the country, and the status of the imperial power were the most important things to Long Yanzhao.

But ever since the other party went to Jiangnan to look for him... Gu Jingyuan felt something was wrong.

When the other party attacked Bei Rong, he could still deceive himself... The emperor was really considering the situation of the country, but he had nothing to do with him.

Can……

Ever since seeing Long Yanzhao again, Gu Jingyuan could no longer deceive himself.

And I have to admit that even earlier, when Long Yanzhao went to Rongqing's thatched cottage that night to find him, hit his acupuncture points, and told him about the past, he began to feel that something was wrong.

——The emperor who is so fond of feelings, the emperor who really never forgets Cheng Qi...

How could it be possible to really ignore him and not respond back then?

In the beginning, it didn't matter to know the truth.

... also afraid.

Afraid of learning the new truth, afraid of the collapse of the belief that has allowed me to barely survive.

At that time, all he wanted was to draw a clear line with the emperor, so as not to implicate Long Yanzhao.

But later...

What happened later gave Gu Jingyuan a new understanding of their relationship, and gradually began to understand the relationship between them.

Curious about the truth.

——In fact, when he promised the emperor to return to the north on the cruise ship, he agreed with the detection of this question.

It's just that he didn't expect that before he started the investigation, the truth would be automatically presented before his eyes.

……

All the way to pull Gu Jingyuan back into his tent, after returning, the emperor poured a glass of water first and handed it in front of him.

Gu Jingyuan shook his head, shook the wrist that was just held all the way a few times, but didn't answer: "I'm not thirsty, you drink."

Long Yanzhao was indeed thirsty.

Gu Jingyuan was afraid of the cold, but he was afraid of the heat.

During the daytime in northern summer, the sun is always hot.

After wandering on the martial arts field under the sun for more than an hour, the emperor was already thirsty.

After he finished drinking one glass, Gu Jingyuan had already poured the second glass and handed it to him.

The other party's fingers were as white as onion roots, with protruding knuckles, full and round nails, and the whole hand holding the teacup looked too cute.

Long Yanzhao couldn't help it, he grabbed that hand, and then drank the cup of tea in Mr. Gu's hand.

"Why is Ah Yuan so obedient today?" No longer thirsty, the emperor's old problem has recurred.

He couldn't help but get up, held that hand tightly and didn't let go, and asked with a smile, "Did you miss me?"

"Well, I thought about it."

Unexpectedly, Gu Jingyuan nodded and said bluntly.

"..."

The emperor was suddenly stunned.

I don't know how to pick it up.

He called out in a low voice, "Ah Yuan..."

But Gu Jingyuan had already raised his eyes, his pink eyes were slightly bent, looking straight into his eyes.

Gu Jingyuan said seriously: "I miss you, Long Yanzhao."
