Gu Pan Lanling

When Gu Zimo woke up, it was already after noon.

I didn't see Gao Changgong around me, and I vaguely remembered that when I was watching the stars last night, Gao Changgong said that he would go back to the barracks for a few days from today, but he would come back as scheduled to take him to see the lantern festival.

Thinking of the Lantern Festival, Gu Zimo looked forward to it.

There was a smile all over his face.

……

As soon as Gao Changgong returned to the army, Su Zhe came up to him and said: "Your Highness, the envoy of Zhou Guo has arrived, and my subordinates have placed him in the partial camp."

"The envoy of Zhou Guo?" Gao Changgong didn't remember any contact with Zhou Guo.

"Boom away." Frowning, he said without any leeway.

"promise."

Su and Zhejiang went back and forth, but their expressions became more dignified.

"Your Highness, the envoy took out this golden hairpin..."

Su Zhe presented the golden hairpin with solemn hands, Gao Changgong glanced at the golden hairpin lightly, and his face suddenly sank.

That hairpin was exactly the one that Gao Changgong gave to Gu Zimo.

"What did the messenger say!"

"He said that His Highness only needs to see him..."

Gao Changgong played with the golden hairpin in his hand, and said sinisterly: "Tell him to come in."

"promise."

After a while, Su and Zhejiang came with the "envoy" of that Zhou state.

Gao Changgong was no stranger to the face of the envoy, to be exact, he had met him a few times.

"Nie Yun sees His Highness Prince Lanling."

Today's Nie Yun is dressed in fine clothes and looks quite aristocratic.

Gao Changgong's eyes fell lightly on the golden hairpin in his hand, and he spoke after a long time: "The envoy of Zhou Guo, I don't know what you can do to come to my king's camp!"

"Your Highness...you don't remember Caomin? Nie Yun, Caomin, was rescued by His Highness in Ye City more than a year ago..."

Gao Changgong was obviously not interested in these things, so he interrupted Nie Yun in a cold voice, "I am not interested in who you are, you just need to answer my question."

"Your Highness, I..."

"Where did this golden hairpin come from?"

"This is...a gift from Cao Min's friend..." Nie Yun raised his head, looked at Gao Changgong, his eyes sparkled with excitement, "Cao Min's friend is your staff..."

"Really?" Gao Changgong's face was so calm that one felt almost suffocating.

"Cao Min dare not speak in front of His Highness. This golden hairpin was given to His Majesty Zhou Guoguo by a friend of Cao Min. After His Majesty recognized this hairpin as yours, he sent Cao Min to return it to the original owner..."

When Nie Yun spoke, his eyes were fixed on Gao Changgong, as if he wanted to judge something from Gao Changgong's eyes.

However, Gao Changgong's expression remained unchanged.

It's just that he loosened his grip on the hairpin and handed the hairpin to Nie Yun, "Since it was a gift from him, I won't take it back."

"Your Highness, he, Gu Zimo, privately passed on what you gave him to others, so you just..."

Nie Yun couldn't hold back his question, which made Gao Changgong laugh coldly, "Since the king has given the hairpin to him, he is the owner of the hairpin. He can give it to whoever he wants, and the king will not ask. When it comes to you, you keep saying that you are good friends with him, but now you come to sue this king, what is your intention?"

"I... I didn't mean to provoke His Highness and him, but he has bad conduct, and I'm afraid he will harm His Highness..."

"Finished?"

"I……"

"If you finish talking, get out of my king's barracks. In addition, let me remember that even if my king's people have misbehavior, they will not allow others to make irresponsible remarks."

After finishing speaking coldly, Gao Changgong glanced at Su Zhe, "Send him away."

"Think twice, Your Highness. The grassroots are very kind, and everything they said is true. It is Mrs. Li Ezi. He saw it with his own eyes. Gu Zimo and Zhou Guoguo met in private and rode the same horse together. Gu Zimo took Zhou Guoguo with him. Going to cloth store to buy clothes...their relationship is absolutely unusual.

Moreover, he also gave the hairpin you gave him to Lord Zhou, maybe Gu Zimo has already betrayed you, leaving this misfortune by his side, I'm afraid it will be very detrimental to you, Your Highness..."

"Boom out!" Gao Changgong ordered coldly.

Su Zhe hurried forward, "Master Nie, please."

What Nie Yun wanted to say, Su Zhe already wanted to draw his sword, so he had to swallow the words that came to his lips, and left resentfully.

"Your Highness, what Nie Yun said may not be true, Mr. Gu..." He should not betray His Highness.

Before Su Zhe finished speaking, Gao Changgong stopped him with cold eyes.

"My subordinates still have some military affairs to deal with, so I will retire first..."

After Su Zhe left the military tent, Gao Changgong raised his hand and pulled out the white jade hairpin from his hair.

The texture of the hairpin is not very good, even a little chrome, but he has hardly left his body.

For some reason, Gu Zimo always felt a little restless.

He obviously didn't have a cold, but he kept sneezing.

"Ah..."

"My lord, maybe someone is missing you!" Gao Wen brought a cup of hot tea and said to Gu Zimo with a smile.

"Who will miss me!" Gu Zimo took a sip of tea, and Gao Changgong's face suddenly flashed in his mind.

Looking at the stars together on the eaves last night, Gao Changgong's focused profile, gentle eyebrows...

Strange, what did I suddenly think of him?

"It's getting late, my lord, let's go to rest earlier." Seeing Gu Zimo's absent-minded look, Gao Wen got up and retreated.

Gu Zimo drank some calming tea and soon fell asleep.

It's just that he was sleeping soundly, and his body seemed to be shaking.

He woke up suddenly, only to find that he was not sleeping on the couch, but in a cabin.

There was a lantern in the cabin, and the light was so dim that he almost thought he was dreaming after seeing the face of the man sitting next to him.

He raised his hand and touched the man's face, the touch was so real.

The wrist was suddenly held by Gao Changgong, and Gu Zimo's sleepiness dissipated instantly.

"Your Highness, why are you back? Where are we...?"

One question after another popped up.

Gao Changgong clearly said that he will be very busy these few days.

"Crossing this river is the boundary of Zhou Kingdom."

Gu Zimo was taken aback by Gao Changgong's answer.

"Your Highness, what are you going to do?"

He suddenly felt uneasy, did something happen?

Otherwise, why would Gao Changgong take him across the river at night...

"Why don't you wear the hairpin that this king gave you?"

"Huh? Hairpin?"

Gu Zimo suddenly remembered that after he planned to leave Gao Changgong last time, he put the hairpin away, and it should still be in a box at home now.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Has something happened?"

"What did Yu Wenyong talk to you in private in the private room of the restaurant that day."

Unexpectedly, after many days, Gao Changgong still asked about this matter.

Gu Zimo didn't want to hide it either, "What I can say is to thank him for saving me. In addition... I said something about Yupei..."

"Jade pendant?" Gao Changgong's voice visibly trembled.

"Well, however, he didn't say anything, but he must know something. Your Highness, can you return the jade pendant to me... If there is a chance, I would like to return the jade pendant to my benefactor..."

He thought, if Gao Changgong was willing to tell him about the jade pendant, he would have said it a long time ago, but now he is afraid that he will keep asking, Gao Changgong may not be able to tell.

"Your Highness... are you listening to me?"

Gao Changgong's face became darker and darker, and after a long time, he said, "Gu Zimo, please remember this king, whether it is the jade pendant or the benefactor you mentioned, this king does not allow you to have any relationship with them. , if you meet with them in private again, this king will lock you up, not to scare you."

"Why?" Gao Changgong hadn't said such serious words to him for a long time.

Gu Zimo felt aggrieved for a while, but more of annoyed, "You don't allow me this and that, you have to explain the reason clearly! You forbid me to interact with Yu Wenyong, I just take it as the two countries' positions are at odds. But, that benefactor, he made me feel very kind, he even saved me, he didn't have any malice towards me..."

"This king is of course doing it for your own good. As for the reason, you don't need to know."

"Why! I'm a person, I'm a living thing, why don't I need to know? Gao Changgong, what are you thinking, can you just not trust me?

If so, why do you still keep me by your side? You might as well remove my position as a staff member and drive me out of the palace, so that you can save yourself this suspicion! "

"Shut up!" Gao Changgong interrupted Gu Zimo coldly.

The night wind blew, and the boat began to shake. Gu Zimo reached out and grabbed the wall of the cabin to stabilize himself.

Gao Changgong was obviously offended, his face was so cold that he could freeze to death.

Gu Zimo was not to be outdone, this time, Gao Changgong went too far ahead.

"Apart from yelling at me, what else can you do! I didn't provoke you..."

Gu Zimo didn't remember how he got back to the palace, but it was just like what Gao Changgong said, he was confined in the palace, and he couldn't go out anywhere except Mo Garden.

As for Gao Changgong, since he quarreled with him that night, he hasn't appeared in front of him for a few days.

After Gu Zimo calmed down, he still couldn't figure out why Gao Changgong was fine sometimes, but sometimes he was so unreasonable!

Why did he have to be so aggressive about the jade pendant?

Could it be that there is really some ulterior secret?

What is the unknown relationship between Gao Changgong, Yu Wenyong and the benefactor who saved him?

Gao Changgong fell ill as soon as he returned to the army, and the persistent high fever made him fall into a coma.

In the eyes of everyone, Gao Changgong is like iron, and he seldom falls ill.

Huluxuda put the medicine into the tent, saw Gao Changgong holding the white jade hairpin in a daze again, and shook his head helplessly, "Your Highness, I don't think you have a physical illness at all, you have it in your heart." Illness, you obviously don’t want to do anything to him, but you still want to pretend to be cruel! It’s you who fell ill in the end, don’t you suffer?”

Gao Changgong didn't respond to Hu Lv's nonsensical words, paused for a moment, inserted the jade hairpin into his hair, and asked calmly, "What's the matter with what this king entrusted you to do?"

"Your Highness, are you serious?"

"What do you say!"

"Uh..." Hu Lvxuda swallowed his saliva, his whole body trembled from Gao Changgong's cold glance.

With such killing intent in his eyes, His Highness, His Highness, is he really going to send troops to attack Bei Zhou?

But he has always put the people first, and now he is taking the initiative to start a war. This is undoubtedly not something he would do when he calms down. Is he really not impulsive?
