Married Thrice to Salted Fish

Lin Qingyu has been refusing to open his eyes, and in the darkness that cannot be seen, the sense of touch becomes vivid.He felt something dripping on his face, he opened his eyes a little, and met Gu Fuzhou's gaze.

Gu Fuzhou...has been looking at him all the time, the youthful innocence has faded from his eyes, leaving only the undercurrent that belongs to an adult man.Gu Fuzhou just looked at him like this, seeing that his face was flushed, his lips were slightly parted, revealing an expression that would never appear on his face at ordinary times.What dripped on his face was Gu Fuzhou's sweat, it was so cold outside, but Gu Fuzhou was sweating all over.

Lin Qingyu couldn't help asking: "Are you tired?"

Gu Fuzhou laughed: "No. Why do you think so?"

"If you're not tired, why are you sweating so much?"

Gu Fuzhou paused, and said in an uncertain tone: "Well...maybe, it's because you're suffering?"

Lin Qingyu was taken aback for a moment, but hesitated to speak.

Gu Fuzhou smiled and asked, "Are you going to help me?"

Lin Qingyu raised and lowered his hands that had nowhere to rest: "Forget it, I... am not very good at it."

He couldn't even do this well by himself, let alone help others.

"Huh? Doctor Lin still has things he doesn't know." Gu Fuzhou smiled, "But it's not a big problem, I can teach you. It's very simple..."

As he said that, Gu Fuzhou really grabbed his hand and taught him hand in hand.

Lin Qingyu closed his eyes again, Gu Fuzhou's breath kept lingering in his ears.Gu Fuzhou had to talk to him from time to time—calling him "Qingyu", calling him "baby", and then calling him "wife".The word "wife" almost made him shrivel, he couldn't help but suspect that the word "wife" in Gu Fuzhou's hometown definitely didn't mean an old woman, otherwise he really couldn't accept Gu Fuzhou's habit.

Fortunately, at this time, Gu Fuzhou kissed him.Between lips and teeth, he temporarily left the "old woman" behind.Then Gu Fuzhou started to praise him again, praised him for his long eyelashes, praised his beautiful body, praised his good voice, and coaxed him to call him "husband", which made him almost wilt again.

Lin Qingyu knew that Gu Fuzhou was talkative, but he really didn't expect that Gu Fuzhou could speak so freely on the bed.Gu Fuzhou's voice was low-pitched, and every sentence seemed to give him a drug of fascination, causing him to have strange and strange reactions—of course, except for "husband and wife", the two should be poison.

Gu Fuzhou got his wish and successfully defiled his beautiful wife.Afterwards, without any complaints, he got out of bed and asked his servants to fetch a basin of hot water.

Hualu and a nun surnamed Yun are on duty in the master room that night.After sending the hot water and the handkerchief in, Mother Yun said with a smile, "It's the day I've waited for. I thought the general and madam would spend their entire lives being so pure and ascetic."

Hua Lu asked curiously, "How long has Mammy been waiting?"

Sister Yun smiled brightly: "The young couple ask for hot water and handkerchiefs in the middle of the night, besides that, what else could it be for?"

Hualu reacted and blushed immediately.She has been with Lin Qingyu for so long, and she has never thought about such a thing.In her opinion, even if the young master is married to the general, he is respectful and courteous.Unexpectedly, the young master's fairy-like figure was finally dragged into the hustle and bustle of the world by General Gu.

Sister Yun said cheerfully: "In the future, those who will be on duty at night will have to make a few more trips."

Gu Fuzhou tidied up the scene, changed himself and Lin Qingyu into clean pajamas, and they embraced each other and fell asleep.With physical contact without barriers, the relationship between them has also lost the unique youthfulness and innocence of childhood.Afterwards, the bed in the bedroom of the General's Mansion was replaced with a big bed, and the "historic" bunk bed was moved back to the study.When the general gets angry with his wife and is kicked out of the bedroom, he can still make do in the study, lying on the upper and lower bunks and recalling the glorious years of the two of them.

The winter in the first year of Chuxi was earlier than in previous years.But at the end of October, the first snow fell in Beijing.Lin Qingyu was wearing Dayu's winter official uniform, and was walking on the road after clearing the snow in the palace. An eunuch followed him step by step, holding an umbrella for him steadily.

When he arrived at the gate of Qinzheng Hall, Lin Qingyu saw his husband unexpectedly, and asked in surprise, "When did you enter the palace?"

"Half an hour ago, the palace sent someone to the mansion to invite me." Gu Fuzhou looked at the plaque hanging at the entrance of the hall, "It seems that something serious has happened."

After Xiao Jie came to the throne, Gu Fuzhou started the semi-care mode, unless it was such a big event as the enthronement ceremony, he rarely entered the palace.Lin Qingyu was worried that he would lose his prestige in the court because of this.As it turned out, his worries were unfounded.Gu Fuzhou has that ability. While squatting at home, he can gain insight into the situation in the court, buy people's hearts, and hold the military power firmly in his palm without tiring himself.

That day when they supported Xiao Jie to ascend the throne, one of the conditions they offered was not to tire General Gu.Xi Rong would not alarm Gu Fuzhou for ordinary minor troubles, so it must be a big deal for him to invite Gu Fuzhou to the palace.

The two entered the hall together.In addition to Xiao Jie and Xi Rong, Empress Dowager Wen is also in the hall.With the Empress Dowager present, Xi Rong restrained himself and behaved like an ordinary father-in-law.

Lin Qingyu and Gu Fuzhou greeted Xiao Jie and the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager frowned, and Xiao Jie's face was pale as paper. "You are here," said the queen mother, "sit down."

Lin Qingyu asked, "What happened?"

The queen mother closed her eyes and said: "Xi Rong, bring the things and show the general and Imperial Physician Lin."

Xi Rong handed Lin Qingyu a palm-sized brocade box.Xiao Jie watched Lin Qingyu open the brocade box, shrinking back in the dragon chair: "Doctor Lin, you have to be prepared, don't be frightened by the things inside."

Xi Rong's eyes dimmed invisibly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Imperial Physician Lin is well-informed, and she won't be afraid of anything she sees."

Even though he guessed that there would be no good things inside, Lin Qingyu still froze when he saw a dried "meat stick" in the brocade box.Standing behind him, Gu Fuzhou smelled a bloody smell wrapped in cold air, frowned and asked, "What is this?"

Lin Qingyu quickly closed the brocade box, and said coldly, "Tongue—human tongue."

Gu Fuzhou was also taken aback, and asked: "Whose?"

Xiao Jie tremblingly said: "Zhao Mingwei, General Zhao."

Lin Qingyu felt that Gu Fuzhou's breathing suddenly sank, and his own chest was also suffocated.

Zhao Mingwei, a famous general of Dayu, was once a lieutenant under Gu Fuzhou's command. Although he is not as victorious as Gu Fuzhou, he is also a talent who is very good at using troops.After Gu Fuzhou returned to Beijing, it was Zhao Mingwei who continued to lead the Northwest Army to defend Yongliang.For a year, under his leadership, Dayu's Northwest Army was evenly matched against Xixia, and both sides had victories and losses.

Earlier, Zhao Mingwei suddenly sent news that the Xixia army was expected to be wiped out in one fell swoop, but Gu Fuzhou felt that it was inappropriate.Although he has not confronted the Xixia army division head-on, it can be seen from the Northwest Army newspaper that this person is unpredictable and full of tricks.He said in the playbook that he suggested that Zhao Mingwei make a decision before making a move.The military order has been delivered to the northwest, and he does not know whether Zhao Mingwei complied with the order.

"What's going on." Lin Qingyu said, "General Zhao... Has he died for his country?"

Xi Rong looked at Gu Fuzhou and said: "Western Xia defeated Zhao Mingwei's 20 troops. General Gu had defended Yongliang for more than ten years, but he fell. After being captured, General Zhao committed suicide and died for the country. Xixia cut off his tongue. The news of the great defeat was sent to Beijing together."

Yongliang is an important city in the northwest, and it is the strongest line of defense on Dayu's border.Once the city is broken, the northwest of Dayu can be said to be opened wide.

"They are too much, they are not human!" Xiao Jie said in a hoarse voice, "The people of Yongliang have no time to escape, and their lives are held in Xixia's hands. General Gu, if Xixia wants to massacre the city, cut off everyone's tongue Come down, what shall we do..."

"This year's winter is colder than two years ago. There has been heavy snowfall in the northwest for days, and several roads for transporting food and grass have been blocked. Even if we hurry up, it will take half a month to get from Yongliang to the capital." "In other words, Zhao Mingwei died half a month ago. Now, Yongliang doesn't know what the situation is."

Lin Qingyu was silent for a long time, and said: "Xixia has invaded Dayu's border for many years, and all they want is money, food, cattle and sheep. Since they have captured Yongliang and captured General Zhao alive, why don't they use this to negotiate terms with Dayu and cut off General Zhao's tongue instead?" As a provocation?"

Gu Fuzhou laughed, but there was no trace of a smile on his face: "Probably because that Xixia military advisor doesn't want money, food, cattle and sheep."

Xiao Jie asked: "Then what does he want?"

"There is such a kind of people who like to fight and enjoy the feeling of strategizing. Only on the battlefield can they feel that their lives are meaningful." Gu Fuzhou said coldly, "So, he will hope that there will never be endless conflicts between Dayu and Xixia. Ge."

Xiao Jie was taken aback: "Yes, will there be such a person?"

After a while of silence, the Empress Dowager said: "When the late emperor was still there, he asked the national teacher to calculate a hexagram for Dayu's country. Brothers killed each other, the emperor's heir withered, and many civil and military officials lost their black hats and even lost their heads due to crony disputes; and the marriage in the northern border was the source of the deposed former prince. The first two things that the national teacher said, All have been fulfilled, and they are all related to Dayu's national destiny. Could it be that the last sentence 'Xishia Ghost Commander' is Xixia, the elusive military adviser?"

Xi Rong said: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, it doesn't matter whether this Xixia military commander is the person mentioned by Tianxiang. Now that Yongliang has fallen, the dragons in the northwest have no leader, and with the road blocked by heavy snow, the food and payment cannot be delivered on time. This is a good opportunity given by Xixia. Going on, I'm afraid they will be like a broken bamboo, and it is unknown if they will invade the capital in the future. The most urgent thing is to send a general to the northwest as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation."

The queen mother was quite disgusted with the eunuch's participation in politics, but the situation was urgent, so she had to agree with Xi Rong's statement. "General Gu," the Empress Dowager's tone slowed down a bit, "Look at the center, now only you can save the Northwest."

Before Gu Fuzhou could answer, Lin Qingyu said: "Not necessarily. General's old injury has recurred recently, so he is not suitable for going out."

Xi Rong said with deep meaning: "The general himself should know best whether the old injury has recurred."

Gu Fuzhou said calmly: "It's relapsed."

Xi Rong narrowed his eyes.The Empress Dowager sighed, and said, "Let the cabinet ministers discuss the matter in the Qinzheng Hall."

On the way back to the General's Mansion, Lin Qingyu and Gu Fuzhou were silent all the way.After returning to the room, Lin Qingyu said: "I am also very sad about General Zhao. But you are not allowed to go."

Gu Fuzhou said slowly: "There has been no general in the army for a long time, so Yongliang..."

"What does Yongliang have to do with me." Lin Qingyu said coldly, "I just want you to be well."

Gu Fuzhou shook his head: "It's small, the layout is small."

"what for."

"The Xixia Army Adviser and the Xixia General are the same person. He is both a teacher and a handsome man. This person is not described much in the original book "Huai Bu Knows the King", but he is a ghost who uses soldiers with the author's seal. You let him burn Yong today. Liang, he may invade the capital tomorrow. By then, I will definitely not be able to survive. And you, probably because of your beauty, will be—damn, I'm about to die of anger just thinking about it."

Lin Qingyu frowned: "So, do you really want to go?"

Gu Fuzhou paused, and said: "No, I just feel like there is really no one else."

Lin Qingyu's eyes were cold.

Gu Fuzhou said helplessly: "Don't be angry, baby, come here and give me a hug."

Gu Fuzhou spread his arms to hug Lin Qingyu.Lin Qingyu had a sullen face, and stepped back to avoid it: "I won't give you a hug."

Gu Fuzhou was not angry when he was rejected, he exaggeratedly sighed, and said, "Are you serious about taking half a step back? Such a small movement can hurt so much."

Lin Qingyu gritted his teeth: "What time is it, and you are still in the mood to joke. You yourself said that your fighting is all based on luck, do you think you can beat the ghost appointed by the author?"

"I don't think so." Gu Fuzhou said honestly, "Before I could, I was still studying. Every time I finished the exam, I felt that I didn't do well in the exam, but every time I got the first place."

Lin Qingyu: "..."
