Days and nights haunted by villains

Looking at the raging sea of ​​flames in front of him, thinking that Gu Yuanzhi was still inside, Jiang Yu's heart seemed to be cut into pieces by thousands of knives. When he was struggling to jump into the sea of ​​flames, he felt as if something in his head was biting open. .

—Memories gushed out like a flood, and Jiang Yu froze in place under the impact, and it would be difficult to make other actions for a while.

The eunuch and Jin Yiwei who grabbed Jiang Yu behind did not dare to let go, and while holding him, advised him to calm down and take care of his dragon body.

But Jiang Yu maintained the posture of sitting on the spot, staring wide-eyed at the sea of ​​flames in front of him, and the scene in front of him gradually overlapped with the fire that year.

Back then when he was in the flames, it was Gu Yuanzhi who rushed in to save him.

Now he is in Huohai, but Gu Yuanzhi is unable to get out.

If you can't get out...you will die.

With these words in Jiang Yu's mind, she suddenly pushed away the person who was grabbing her behind, took off her obstructive robe and poured water on her body, tripped halfway in anxiety, and rushed into the sea of ​​flames recklessly.

The fire has spread throughout the palace, it is very dangerous, one mistake may be buried in the flames, but Jiang Yu only wants to find Gu Yuanzhi.

The fire engulfed the bedroom. It was unknown whether it was wood or something—it fell down with the fire, and the whole bedroom was crumbling, as if it was about to collapse in the raging fire.

Jiang Yu managed to dodge falling logs countless times, avoiding the flames kissing him, he didn't care about these dangers, he just focused his eyes on finding where Gu Yuanzhi was.

But when he found the only person in the house, that person had been burned for a long time, and he couldn't even see what that face looked like.

It can only be seen that the figure is very similar to Gu Yuanzhi, so similar that he is almost a person.

He hurriedly took the dead man out, called the maid who was serving Gu Yuanzhi today, and asked them in a trembling voice if Gu Yuanzhi was wearing the same clothes today.

"Back, if you go back to the emperor, the master is wearing this suit today." The palace maid was already frightened, she didn't expect that she was called out by Gu Yuanzhi, and her master died in the sea of ​​fire.

The maids and eunuchs who served Gu Yuanzhi on weekdays all knelt down, knelt down—the whole body was shaking, and no one dared to speak, for fear—the first one would be killed by Jiang Yu.

But Jiang Yu was not in the mood to ask for responsibility at this time, he just hugged the corpse, clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and shed tears.

At a wharf far away from the palace, Gu Yuanzhi and Yuan Huan's men met up after being disguised, took away the money and dry food handed over by the other party, did not let the other party follow, and only boarded the boat to the southeast.

"He didn't let you follow?" Yuan Huan met with his subordinates, and was not too surprised when he heard what his subordinates said, but just nodded to let people go down.

Yuan Huan understood that Gu Yuanzhi didn't want others to know his whereabouts, so he didn't ask, but stayed in the palace as his national teacher.

Waiting for Jiang Yu to come back to Xingshi to question the crime.

After returning to the palace, as Yuan Huan expected, Jiang Yu summoned him again.

However, Jiang Yu's summoning was a few days later than he expected. Maybe Jiang Yu had been depressed for a few days, or maybe he was thinking about how to deal with Yuan Huan.

However, Yuan Huan was not in a hurry to see Jiang Yu, he just followed Guo Yu into the palace after he had ordered many things.

——Guo Yu didn't have a good face on the way. Once the hole of restoring memory is opened, other people will gradually remember everything under the influence.

Guo Yu was one of them, and because he was next to Jiang Yu, he thought of cutting faster than others.

When they arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Guo Yu didn't follow him in, but let Yuan Huan go in alone, and said something to do for himself.

Yuan Huan didn't take it seriously, he shook his sleeves and entered the Xinuang Pavilion, and when he entered, Jiang Yu smashed an inkstone on his head.

There is no ink in the inkstone, but the inkstone itself is not small, so if it is dropped like this, blood will come out.

Yuan Huan didn't care about the falling blood, he just knelt down in front of Jiang Yu and made a big salute.

"You know all about it." Jiang Yu was angry in her heart, angry at how she treated Gu Yuanzhi like that, angry at forcing Gu Yuanzhi away, and also angry at Yuanhuan who knew everything, but watched him go wrong every step of the way the abyss.

He even helped Gu Yuanzhi leave him.

"The emperor is so angry, I don't know what I did wrong after thinking about it." Yuan Huan had a smile on his face, looking very fearless about death.

"Of course I know, I'm just angry with myself..." Jiang Yu gritted her teeth, frowning and looking away.

"Yuanzhi told you, right? But if you don't believe it, forget it if you don't believe it, and Yu Rui provoked him to lock him up." Yuan Huan sneered, he felt that he was going to die, anyway, no matter what he said It doesn't matter, so he has no scruples, "Did he tell you that he doesn't like being trapped in that square palace wall, and he is afraid of such a predicament in his heart, but you push him in with your own hands."

"I know, but at that time I really... I was in a daze." Jiang Yu looked very tired at this time, he pressed the center of his brows, and didn't have time to think that he was calling Yuan Huan to ask why the other party was dumb Yes, but he was taken over by the other party every sentence, and he didn't have time to think about anything else.

After that, Jiang Yu did not deal with Yuan Huan, and still let him be his national teacher.

As for Gu Yuanzhi, Jiang Yu did not hold a funeral for him, but chose to wait.

After recovering from the shock of grief and memories coming back, Jiang Yu found something was wrong.

That corpse was indeed somewhat similar to Gu Yuanzhi. If Jiang Yu, who had forgotten about Gu Yuanzhi, were to identify him, he would definitely take him for Gu Yuanzhi.But now Jiang Yu has already thought of it. After recovering from his senses, he can easily see that there is something wrong with the corpse. After inspection, he indeed found that there are fewer people on death row.

Jiang Yu was a suspicious person, so he had to think a little more about many things, let alone the matter about Gu Yuanzhi.If there is a hope that the other party is still alive, he can't let go.

But at this moment, Gu Yuanzhi had just stepped off the boat, turned the carriage, and returned to Huating.

He didn't look back at the mansion, but used the money in his hand to buy a house near the Gu mansion, under the pseudonym Gu Zhiyuan, and planned to live here for a long time.

As for his appearance, he changed his appearance a little bit, but he didn't pay much attention to other things.

Naturally, the clothes brought out from the palace could no longer be worn. He wore the robes Yuan Huan gave him, and went out to the tailor shop to buy some more simple clothes.

The yard I bought was not big, and it was just right for the purpose of living alone.However, Gu Yuanzhi is still prepared to have someone else come to live with him. He intends to ask Yuan Huan to take over Xiao Shan, and when the time comes, he will say that he is his younger brother and he can live with him.

At any rate, he was the one he saved, so it's nothing to bring with him.

Moreover, he was actually not sure that he could completely deceive Jiang Yu, so he still had to do - make other plans.

It's easier to get away with someone who looks like you.

For example, tell Jiang Yu that there are so many people who look alike in the world, why should I be called Gu Yuanzhi.

But with the matter of Xiao Shan, Gu Yuanzhi also had selfish intentions.

He knew that Xiao Shan resembled him, and Jiang Yu didn't know anything at this time, if he really had such vague feelings for him, and when the time came to find a substitute, and found Xiao Shan, wouldn't Gu Yuanzhi want it even more? He was so pissed off by Jiang Yu's stupidity.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuanzhi frowned, and while scolding Jiang Yu from the bottom of his heart, he wrote a letter to Yuan Huan, asking Yuan Huan to bring Xiao Shan here.

After sending the letter out, Gu Yuanzhi didn't care about it anymore, he just added a lot of things to the house he bought, and even hired a servant to take care of the house.Then I found a job that was not bad, and that's it - living a small life - while waiting for Yuan Huan's reply.

Yuan Huan happened to be refining alchemy when he received Gu Yuanzhi's letter. He heard from his subordinates that his friend had received a letter. When he opened it and saw the contents, his face became a little weird.

—Jin Yiwei, who was staring at Yuan Huan, stretched out his hand to snatch the letter, Yuan Huan quickly threw the letter into the alchemy furnace, raised his chin and glanced at Jin Yiwei: "Do you want the emperor to see my letter?"

"Let's see if the national teacher knows where the Dugong has gone, but he refuses to report to the emperor." Jin Yiwei is the official of the Jin Yiwei Hall, not a small family of thousands of people, and the family also has some background, so naturally he is not afraid of Yuan Huan. .

Not afraid of Yuan Huan, he has no sense of propriety when speaking, and he is even more anxious to find his own official.

Yuan Huan was not afraid of these Jin Yiwei, he sneered, and said to the Jin Yiwei who surrounded him: "He didn't intend to let me know where he was, and he didn't intend to let you know. If the emperor forced him away, he might as well be good himself if he wants him back." Admit your mistake and beg, you are not trying to tie him back and lock him up now, are you?"

Yuan Huan naturally knew that what he said was serious, Jiang Yu actually had regrets, if Gu Yuanzhi came back, he would definitely beg the other party to forgive him with a good voice.But Yuan Huan had selfish intentions, he just didn't want Jiang Yu and Gu Yuanzhi to meet again, and he didn't want to give Jiang Yu this opportunity easily.

He couldn't even ask for a liking, why would Jiang Yu be so cruel.

The more Yuan Huan thought about it, the more unhappy he felt, and he flung his sleeves and left the place.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Jin Yiwei reported Yuan Huan's matter to Jiang Yu, and even passed Yuan Huan's words to Jiang Yu.Everyone was trembling when they reported it, for fear that Yuan Huan's words would offend Jiang Yu and vent their anger on them.

But Jiang Yu didn't say anything, he was silent for a long time, and agreed with Yuan Huan's statement for the first time.

"That's the reason, I should admit my mistake." Jiang Yu lowered her eyes and said these words, but she was thinking about how to deal with Yu Rui, and then support-call someone up to check and balance Xu Ye, so that he can slip away temporarily Go look for Gu Yuanzhi and ask someone to come back in person.

Gu Yuanzhi, who was far away in the southeast, didn't know about this. He just did odd jobs to earn some money, and occasionally helped illiterate people write letters, so as to ensure that he would not starve to death outside.

In fact, the money Yuan Huan gave was not small, it was enough for Gu Yuanzhi to spend most of his life alone.

But Gu Yuanzhi kept his eyes open. He was afraid that Jiang Yu would come out to find him when he recovered. Not a lot.

Moreover, the most important thing is that Gu Yuanzhi's health is getting worse gradually, in case he collapses halfway, he still has to save some money in advance so as not to run out of money for medical treatment.

Gu Yuanzhi thought so much at such a young age, he sighed, wrote a family letter for the old man in front of him, put it in an envelope and handed it to the old man.

The old man thanked him again and again, handed the few copper coins in his hand to Gu Yuanzhi, turned around with his wife and left with a smile.

It has been several days, but Gu Yuanzhi has not received a letter from Yuan Huan, nor has he seen Xiao Shan, so he can't help being a little annoyed.

He didn't know the situation in the capital, and there were no rumors outside that Jiang Yu was looking for someone.

I don't know if I have been exposed, and I can't wait for any definite news, as if I was being roasted on the fire.

Very uncomfortable.

Gu Yuanzhi squinted his eyes, put away his pen and ink and returned home, just as he handed the things to the boy to tidy up, he felt something wrong with his body.

It was that kind of hot and dry feeling that rose rapidly again, the love medicine that Gu Yuanzhi loathed to the extreme.

It occurs once a month, and it is indeed the moment when I calculate the time.

Gu Yuanzhi had already made preparations, and asked the servant to put the food on the table every day, and he was not allowed to go around the screen. After three days, he had his permission to come in to serve and wash.

At first, the boy was a little strange when he gave the order, but he was just a servant, and he did what the master ordered without thinking too much.

After reminding the servant again of what he ordered last time, Gu Yuanzhi entered the house, took off the clothes that were in the way, and lay down on the bed, intending to endure these three days like this.

These three days were as difficult as they were in the Southwest Palace, especially after the love medicine tasted the sweetness, it was even more difficult to control.

Gu Yuanzhi bit the brocade quilt tightly, feeling that the brocade quilt was about to be torn to pieces by him, thinking that he could wake himself up a bit, so he bit his own arm instead.

The smell of blood filled the tip of the nose, and the rust-like smell stimulated the tip of the tongue, making Gu Yuanzhi sober for a moment.

But it was this moment of sobriety that made him think of Jiang Yu in the heat wave.

Very angry, but also miss each other.

Gu Yuanzhi is a sensitive person, easy to think too much, but after liking someone, he will try to adjust his emotions, just like Jiang Yu let go of his suspicion back then.

It's just that Jiang Yu even forgot about Gu Yuanzhi later on, relying on that little sense of familiarity, there was no way for Jiang Yu, who had already engraved suspicion into his bones, to believe in Gu Yuanzhi.

Gu Yuanzhi closed his eyes, recalled many things in the palace at that time, and felt a fire in his heart, - while missing the other party, - thinking about never seeing each other again.

Gu Yuanzhi survived these three days while thinking wildly.

He rarely even went out to eat, because he couldn't walk at all, and only when he was so hungry that he helped himself to move over to eat a couple of bites along the road, and then moved back step by step.

I have to figure out a way to get rid of this medicine.

Gu Yuanzhi didn't want to endure the feeling of thousands of bugs gnawing on his bones every month anymore, his whole body was so hot that it made people want to die immediately.

After these three days, Gu Yuanzhi tidied up a bit and ate a mouthful of hot rice, just in time to receive news from Yuan Huan.

Yuan Huan's people secretly escorted Xiao Shan over.

However, Yuan Huan was afraid that someone would follow them, so he didn't dare to ask Gu Yuanzhi to pick him up in person, so he put Xiao Shan somewhere, and used a person who looked like Xiao Shan to confuse Jin Yiwei's judgment before sending Xiao Shan to Gu Yuanzhi was there.

When seeing Gu Yuanzhi, Xiao Shan was a little excited, and was about to cry when he saw him.

This seemed strange to Gu Yuanzhi, and Yuan Huan didn't dare to reply because he was afraid of being exposed, so he didn't know that Jiang Yu had actually remembered it until today.

"Subordinate, this subordinate has already heard about it." Xiao Shan cried as soon as he came, grabbing Gu Yuanzhi's sleeve and weeping loudly, making the servant next to him stunned.

That's why Gu Yuanzhi asked the boy to tidy up a room and come out, and then told him not to come back after tidying up, but to go and rest first.

After finishing the work, he can go back to rest, so the servant is naturally very happy, and he doesn't care about the affairs between Xiao Shan and Gu Yuanzhi, he just regards it as a relationship between brothers or lovers.

Boy - let's go, Gu Yuanzhi pulled Xiao Shan to sit down, asked him carefully what he had heard, and saw that the other party said that he knew the hardships that Gu Yuanzhi suffered by Jiang Yu's side, and knew that Jiang Yu had forgotten about Gu Yuanzhi, - His expression was a little dignified.

Xiao Shan remembered, that Jiang Yu...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is the first to think of it. The national teacher said that it was because the Emperor remembered it. With this opening, everyone else will remember it." What Xiao Shan said made Gu Yuanzhi's face look pale. The smile froze.

Everyone will remember it, and it was Jiang Yu who remembered it first.

Gu Yuanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking, why didn't he come to him.

It seems to be more angry.

"He remembered it as soon as he remembered it, it's none of my business." Gu Yuanzhi sneered, and didn't let Xiao Shan continue to mention Jiang Yu, but made the necessary disguise for Xiao Shan, so that he would always do it according to this disguise , He only said that he was his younger brother when he went out.

"My pseudonym is Gu Zhiyuan, so you can call me Gu Zhishan." Gu Yuanzhi rubbed his chin, said while nodding his head, and directly made this decision.

Xiao Shan was still a little dazed, but he nodded obediently, looked in the mirror and saw his face that was more similar to the current Gu Yuanzhi, and rehearsed in his heart how to say his identity when he was away from home.

The elder brother is Gu Zhiyuan, and he is Gu Zhishan.

After explaining what identity he should use in the future, Gu Yuanzhi told Xiao Shan about his plan.

However, some impromptu thoughts were added to it.

Whether Jiang Yu thinks about him or not thinks about him directly affects whether Gu Yuanzhi will settle in one place or change places every so often.

"Did the national teacher tell me when Jiang Yu remembered?"

During dinner, Gu Yuanzhi just mentioned these things that he had thought of temporarily.

Although—from the beginning, there was an intention to use the hill to confuse the court's search, but if Jiang Yu didn't think about it, then this method should only be used when it is the last resort.But now that Jiang Yu thinks about it, then this method can be raised to the premise.

After thinking about it, Jiang Yu had feelings for him, and didn't dare to really do anything to his people.

Gu Yuanzhi also happened to be a bit presumptuous, but it was easy to expose like this.

God knows if the current Jiang Yu will take him back.

Gu Yuanzhi sighed, he used to sneak away to go to the North Country, it was a serious matter, but now he sneaked away to avoid Jiang Yu, it was totally different from that time.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuanzhi pressed the center of his eyebrows, and listened to Xiao Shan's description of the situation in the palace at that time.

Although Xiao Shan didn't go, but Yuan Huan told him about it, it's not difficult for him to know.

Gu Yuanzhi didn't expect that Jiang Yu would be reminded of a big fire.

"I should have known - I should have lit a fire from the start." Gu Yuanzhi pressed his eyebrows again, and said this half-jokingly.

"The emperor seems to be looking for you in secret." Xiao Shan said something he knew, and looked at Gu Yuanzhi worriedly, hesitant to speak.

"Just say what you want." Gu Yuanzhi glanced at him, put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and said something casually.

With Gu Yuanzhi's permission, Xiao Shan boldly talked about his views on the previous incidents, and said how bad Jiang Yu was, which made Gu Yuanzhi frown.

"You don't have to say a few words about Jiang Yu and me for the time being. Don't worry, I know it well." Gu Yuanzhi didn't say anything serious to Xiao Shan, but just raised his hand to signal Xiao Shan not to say any more.

There are many things that need to be done to unplug a powerful official, Jiang Yu did not dare to put someone like Yu Rui in the court, and ran to find Gu Yuanzhi by himself.

He had to pull him out before he could go to Gu Yuanzhi with confidence.

Fortunately, Yu Rui has a lot of bad deeds, so Jiang Yu doesn't have any psychological burden to pull him out.

The main reason is that Gu Yuanzhi is afraid of getting angry. Gu Yuanzhi is the most protective of those ministers who have not made mistakes.

After setting the goal, Jiang Yu became busy every day, too busy to care what Yuan Huan was doing.

Anyway, Zuo was just doing alchemy and contacting Gu Yuanzhi, so he didn't have any new tricks.

As for Xu Ye and Ji Ying, Jiang Yu almost forgot that they had some thoughts about Gu Yuanzhi in the past.

This day, Xu Ye and Li Shuo were called to discuss matters. After the discussion, Xu Ye didn't leave. He only asked Li Shuo to go back first, while he himself went back to question Jiang Yu.

Why kill people.

That's right, Xu Ye didn't know that Gu Yuanzhi was not dead yet.

Jiang Yu looked at Xu Ye, looked at the other person's painful appearance, and wondered if she was in such pain back then.

Fortunately, Gu Yuanzhi just ran away.

Jiang Yu turned her head to be thankful that the other party just wanted to escape from her side, not desperate enough to just want to die.

"I regret it so much, but Yuan Zhi should come to question me like this, not you." Jiang Yu didn't want to listen to Xu Ye's questioning, so he waved his hand to tell people to leave.

But Xu Ye closed his eyes in pain, and smiled wryly: "He jumped into my carriage before entering the palace. He thought he wanted to say something to me, but I didn't think of him."

Hearing this, Jiang Yu raised his eyelids, and suddenly remembered that Gu Yuanzhi had said that he was tied up to the Southwest Palace by Yu Chunxu earlier.

Originally, I wanted to take down the northern kingdom first, but now there is an extra southwest, which is really tricky.

Jiang Yu smiled, but the imperial pen in her hand didn't stop, reviewing the memorials one by one, asking Xu Ye to go back first.

Xu Ye also didn't want to stay with this person who "forced" Gu Yuanzhi to death, so he glared at him before leaving, turned around and left this place bitterly.

It didn't take long to bring down Yu Rui. With the help of Xu Ye, who turned his grief and anger into motivation, and Li Shuo himself was a deep-minded person, it didn't take long to bring down Yu Rui.

After being overthrown, Jiang Yu did not give up all the power to Xu Ye, but distributed some to him, and the rest to another cabinet minister named Meng Dongshu.

Xu Ye didn't say anything, after all, Jiang Yu didn't do anything wrong, which is a compulsory skill for emperors to check and balance.

After getting Yu Rui settled, Jiang Yu began to prepare for his search for Gu Yuanzhi. While letting Jin Yiwei look for him, he made arrangements for the court affairs.

After all this was done, it happened to be the Chinese New Year, and Jiang Yu couldn't leave, so he could only do all the things during the Chinese New Year before setting off.

Gu Yuanzhi was also busy preparing for the first Chinese New Year outside, he brought Xiao Shan and his servants around to do the shopping, and even wrapped a big red envelope for both of them.

Xiao Shan was used to Gu Yuanzhi being kind to his subordinates, but the servant was a little unaccustomed to his master treating him like this. Seeing that Xiao Shan looked normal, he had no choice but to accept it.It's just that after accepting it, I still thanked it repeatedly, and my work became more energetic.

Seeing the young man busy, Gu Yuanzhi smiled, and only asked the young man if he had any family members, and if so, he could go back to be with his family.

The young man happened to have parents and children at his age, so naturally he would not have no family members. After hearing this, he smiled and said that he could stay.

Gu Yuanzhi raised his head to look at the moon in the sky, and remembered that when he first came to this world, he spent the New Year with Gu Ting and his mother.

"Go back. If you have family members, it's better to accompany them." Gu Yuanzhi said, and gave the boy some money, and asked him to bring some presents back, instead of asking him to go back empty-handed.

"Master, this, this is really inappropriate." The boy was about to refuse immediately.

"There's nothing wrong with it, just say it was given by the master." Gu Yuanzhi patted his hand, forced the thing to him, turned around and went back to the house, saw that the person hadn't left yet, waved his hand to let him Hurry up and go home.

After sitting down, Xiao Shan wondered why Gu Yuanzhi let people go back so generously, but when he saw Gu Yuanzhi drinking, he realized that the other party was not in a good mood, so he didn't say anything.

Seeing that Xiao Shan became stiff, Gu Yuanzhi also understood that his expression was not good enough to scare the other party, but now that he thought of the past, it was somewhat difficult to adjust, and he had no choice but to drink in silence.

Xiao Shan didn't dare to speak, he just ate his food, seeing that Gu Yuanzhi was drinking more and more, so he tried to persuade him.

Gu Yuanzhi waved his hands to indicate that he was fine, stood up and signaled Xiao Shan to keep it until tomorrow to clean up.

And he himself went out on his own.

It was New Year's Eve at this time, and there were no people outside, most of them were at home with their families, having a lively reunion.

Gu Yuanzhi remembered the location of Gu's mansion, he walked towards the old house of Gu's family step by step, found the wall of his own room, listened to the movement inside, climbed over the wall and entered inside, avoided the young servant of Gu's family and entered the house.

The whole old house was still cleaned - spotless, presumably nothing would change until the Gu family ran out of money.

Gu Yuanzhi's room is also very clean, it seems that the quilt is changed and washed regularly, and the clothes that Gu Yuanzhi used to wear are also placed in the closet.

But Gu Yuanzhi was not yet 20 years old when he went to the capital, and he could still grow at that time, so the clothes he left here back then were a bit small.

Walking in the former room, the memories in Gu Yuanzhi's mind seemed to emerge in front of his eyes. Although it was very short, it still made Gu Yuanzhi feel a little sad.

The irresistible presence of memories is actually not quite normal.

Such an abnormality made Gu Yuanzhi see scenes that he didn't remember before.

It's not the so-called original owner, the memory that this identity should have.

It's the memory that Gu Yuanzhi himself has been blank, the panic when he first arrived.

And Zhu Huaining who bumped into after running out of Gu's house indiscriminately.

Gu Yuanzhi lowered his eyes, touched the quilt in front of him, and sat down on the bed, just like that.

It seems to go back to the time when I just opened my eyes, and when I opened my eyes, I saw the anxious face of my mother, and the white-haired grandmother who was standing beside me.

In fact, when the emotion called pain spread in his heart, he regretted a little, regretted his decision to come back to Huating.

But Huating is the place where everything started, and there is nothing wrong with Gu Yuanzhi choosing to return to this place.

He just overestimated himself, overestimated his feelings for that man who had only been together for a few years, but seemed like a real relative.

He lowered his eyes, smiled self-deprecatingly, stayed in his room and lay down for a while, and returned to the house he bought before the servants found out.

Drinking too much really made a mistake. If Gu Yuanzhi could think of looking back at the mansion, Jiang Yu should also be able to think of it.

When Jin Yiwei appeared in front of his eyes, Gu Yuanzhi knew that he couldn't stay where it all started.

On the way, he didn't forget to throw some money to the boy to let him go home, and he didn't forget to take the hill and turn around and run.

"Master, let me stay to delay the time, Jin Yiwei can't tell the difference between the two of us." Xiao Shan said to Gu Yuanzhi while getting on the carriage.

The two of them wore the same clothes, and Xiao Shan's proposal made sense.

But Gu Yuanzhi still felt that he couldn't take the hill to take risks unless it was absolutely necessary.

The person who came was Jin Yiwei, not Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu would be merciful to his people, but Jin Yiwei was ruthless to everyone.

"Stay here, don't go anywhere. I will tell you when I really need you. Before that, don't make up your own mind." Gu Yuanzhi pressed the head of Xiaoshan, picked up the small pen that he made, and started He went out of the window and shot the horses following him.

After listening to Gu Yuanzhi's words, Xiao Shan nodded and didn't make any more noise.

Of course, Xiao Shan has also practiced martial arts with him, so there is no problem with using a small gun at this time.

He picked up another small pistol, and was about to get out and deal with Jin Yiwei like Gu Yuanzhi did.

"Shoot horses, don't shoot people." Gu Yuanzhi reminded him aloud, and then concentrated on dealing with the pursuers behind him.

Xiao Shan paused, thinking that Jin Yiwei used to be under the leadership of Gu Yuanzhi, and understood that the other party did not want to attack his own people, his eyes turned red, and he shot an arrow at the chasing horse, "Master, you are very kind."

Gu Yuanzhi didn't answer the words, but after seeing that the pursuers could not pursue him, he drove the carriage and hurried away from here.

Running directly to the west is not a good strategy, Jin Yiwei must have guessed that they will go west, Gu Yuanzhi thought, he still had to make a detour.

So, he took the hill and walked almost all over the southeast, and even slipped into the barracks, and saw Zhuofei who was staring at the sand table in a daze.

"Grand Du...why are you here?" Zhuo Fei looked at Gu Yuanzhi in surprise, as if he was very surprised, he never thought that Gu Yuanzhi would be here.

Gu Yuanzhi originally thought that after entering, no matter who was knocked out, he was relieved to see that it was Zhuo Fei.

"It's a long story. Hurry up and cover us. I can't run any longer." Gu Yuanzhi was so tired that he picked up the water on the table and drank it. What's up.

"Isn't Du Gong with the emperor? Why did you run away?" Zhuo Fei felt strange, but he still managed to hide the two of them, and didn't see anything to the Jin Yiwei who came in behind, and said that he was on the military side. Confidential, please get them out quickly.

Zhuofei is a straightforward person, and his temper is not very good. There is no one in the army who is tough with him. The guards in Jinyi heard about it and didn't think much about it. They just asked a question and turned to leave.

When they were gone, Gu Yuanzhi invited the two of them out, looked Gu Yuanzhi up and down to see if the other party was injured, and then answered Gu Yuanzhi's question: "Their hometown has experienced frequent earthquakes, and some people say It's about to sink, and I don't care about this side these days, but it has calmed down a lot."

Hearing that the Japanese pirates had stopped a lot, Gu Yuanzhi also breathed a sigh of relief, and told Zhuo Fei to be careful—some big Chu robbers pretended to be Japanese pirates and robbed houses.

Zhuofei also heard about such a person, and he responded angrily, saying that he would drive all the Japanese pirates out of Dachu, and he would not let go of those Dachu people who were in collusion with the Japanese pirates.

Seeing that the other party is still the same as before, Gu Yuanzhi smiled and patted his head, then planned to leave.

Seeing that Gu Yuanzhi had come and was about to leave, Zhuo Fei was fine, he felt strange but also a little bit reluctant, so he wanted to keep the other party behind.

Gu Yuanzhi—while making a long story short—disguised himself and Xiao Shan, then turned and walked out.

I didn't think about it - when I went out, I saw Jiang Yu guarding outside with Jin Yiwei, and it seemed that he must have come for a while, sending Jin Yiwei in to inquire earlier was just a cover-up, in fact, people had already guessed that Gu Yuanzhi was here.

Looking at Jiang Yu in front of him, Gu Yuanzhi felt mixed feelings, as if he had a lot to say, but he didn't want to say too much with the other party.

He was still unhappy, anyone who was treated like that would feel unhappy, and Gu Yuanzhi was not a saint, so of course there was no way to forgive Jiang Yu immediately.

He found another direction and was about to leave. After walking two steps, he remembered that it was not easy for him to take the hill with him, so he pushed the hill to Zhuo Fei, turned to Jiang Yu and said, "You won't attack my people, will you?"

"No, I'm here to beg your forgiveness, not to hunt you down." Jiang Yu smiled wryly, and stepped forward a few steps to get closer to Gu Yuanzhi, but saw Gu Yuanzhi suddenly come over and pull out the embroidered spring on Jin Yiwei's body knife.

"Yuanzhi, what do you want to do?" Jiang Yu panicked and hurried to Gu Yuanzhi's side.

But Gu Yuanzhi didn't give Jiang Yu this chance, he directly put the Xiuchun knife on his neck.

The silver blade matches the cold white skin, but it's hard to say which one is whiter. It's just that holding the silver blade reveals a strong sense of danger, adding a bit of difference to the originally stupefied neck line.

Jiang Yu watched Gu Yuanzhi's movements, and the panic at that time came to his mind again, making his outstretched hands tremble a little, "Yuanzhi, don't do this, don't treat yourself like this."

After liking each other for so many years, Gu Yuanzhi knew that threatening him with a knife on Jiang Yu's neck would be better than putting a knife on his own neck.

Especially Jiang Yu, who experienced the fire not long ago, would be even more afraid that Gu Yuanzhi would be injured or die completely.

Gu Yuanzhi knew this, he didn't feel moved or anything, he just took advantage of this and wanted Jiang Yu to let him go.

"Tell them to get out of the way, and they are not allowed to follow me for three days." Gu Yuanzhi's face had no special expression, but there was a bit of pain in his eyes when he saw his lover again and let him go.

Jiang Yu looked into his eyes and understood that the other party still had feelings for him, but now that the other party had made up his mind and didn't want to go back with him, Jiang Yu had no choice but to persuade him politely.

"Yuanzhi, I was wrong, I knew I was wrong. I was blind, I was a bastard, I forgot you, and when you found me, I dared to bully you. I was wrong, you gave me Is there a chance to change it?" Jiang Yu stared at Gu Yuanzhi, her voice was a little choked up, and it sounded like she was really regretting it.

But Gu Yuanzhi didn't want to forgive Jiang Yu so easily, not to mention that he was still angry, but that he was imprisoned in the palace and treated with contempt, so he couldn't let Gu Yuanzhi return to Jiang Yu's side easily.

Why was he insulted and spurned by others, suspected by his lover and even imprisoned, escaped with great difficulty, but came back just because of Jiang Yu's begging.

fuck you.

Gu Yuanzhi's eyes couldn't tell whether it was more love or more anger, he could only see that he was staring at Jiang Yu, waiting for him to let him go.

But Jiang Yu had just lost Gu Yuanzhi, so how could he really let him go, so she kept at a stalemate with Gu Yuanzhi, waiting for Gu Yuanzhi to compromise first, and put down the Xiuchun knife in his hand.

"Do you think I dare not die?" Gu Yuanzhi said this with a sneer, and pressed the knife on his neck, leaving a bloodstain.

Jiang Yu panicked when she saw this, she wanted to go forward but didn't dare to go forward, for fear that she would just take a step forward, so Gu Yuanzhi wiped her neck directly.

"I know you dare, but can you..." Jiang Yu wanted to coax Gu Yuanzhi again.

But Gu Yuanzhi didn't intend to let Jiang Yu continue to consume him at all, he directly asked Jiang Yu to make a choice.

Ten count, either Jiang Yu let him go, or he died here.

"nineteen……"

Gu Yuanzhi's counting voice seemed to surround Jiang Yu's ears, making him feel even more painful. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth in pain, thinking about the possibility of himself taking the Xiuchun Knife from Gu Yuanzhi's hands. How big is it.

The possibility is very slim, because the Xiuchun knife is pressed on the neck, as long as he moves, Gu Yuanzhi can wipe his neck.

There is only one choice at all.

"Eight, seven, six..."

Gu Yuanzhi is still counting down, he looks like he is not worried about Jiang Yu making other choices, as if he is really not afraid of death—
