He's just a stand-in

Gu Lichuan bought a script for Liu Huaiqiu, when Gu Lichuan went to court, Liu Huaiqiu was enjoying reading it.

Hearing the movement, Liu Huaiqiu looked up and said, "You're back?"

"En." Gu Lichuan walked up to Liu Huaiqiu, put his arms around Liu Huaiqiu's neck, and pressed a kiss on Liu Huaiqiu's lips.

For Gu Lichuan's actions, Liu Huaiqiu has long been used to it.

After Gu Lichuan finished kissing, he lowered his head and continued to look.

Gu Lichuan walked behind Liu Huaiqiu, hugged Liu Huaiqiu in his arms, and said softly: "There was a flood in Changbei County, and I will go to rescue the disaster tomorrow."

Liu Huaiqiu's movement of turning the pages of the book suddenly stopped.

He turned his face sideways, stared into Gu Lichuan's eyes, pretended to be very worried and asked: "When will the prince come back? Is the disaster relief dangerous? Can the prince come back safely?"

"The prince is not here, and the concubine will not be able to sleep."

Hearing what Liu Huaiqiu said, most of Gu Lichuan's boredom disappeared in an instant.

Even knowing that Liu Huaiqiu is pretending, it still makes people happy.

He also didn't want to take Liu Huaiqiu with him, but he was afraid that when he came back from Changbei, the person named Ye Yuqiu would disappear into this world.

Disaster relief is indeed dangerous, but he will definitely protect Liu Huaiqiu.

If something happened to Liu Huaiqiu, there would be no need for him to live in this world.

Gu Lichuan put his arms around Liu Huaiqiu's waist and comforted softly, "Don't worry, madam, I have already consulted with the emperor, and I will take madam with me."

"I'm going too?" Liu Huaiqiu pointed at himself in surprise, his face full of disbelief.

Gu Lichuan nodded very seriously, "I told the emperor that I have a new wife, and I have a deep relationship with her. I am not willing to leave my wife at home alone. There is no way for my wife to separate from me. I can only bring her with me. Let's go together, madam."

"If I can't go with my wife, then I can't go either, so the emperor agreed."

Liu Huaiqiu: "..."

Liu Huaiqiu: "???"

Why did he have a deep relationship with Gu Lichuan?Isn't he a substitute for Gu Lichuan's sweetheart?

Why is Gu Lichuan reluctant to leave him at home?What's the matter, are you afraid that he will sneak away?

When did he say he couldn't be separated from Gu Lichuan?

How could Gu Lichuan be so good at making up?

Since you can make up so much, why don't you write a storybook?

"Well, I'm a woman who doesn't understand anything, and I'm still doing disaster relief, isn't it inappropriate for me to follow?" Liu Huaiqiu refused with an embarrassed smile.

Gu Lichuan denied it directly: "You don't need to understand, you just need to be with me, just treat him as being by my side."

"With him here, I will feel more at ease."

"This time, you can't go there as a woman, disguise yourself as a man, and be my attendant, no one will recognize you."

Hearing that he could wear men's clothes back, Liu Huaiqiu's heart was moved for a moment. After all, he had been wearing women's clothes for so many days, and he couldn't take it anymore.

But he thought again, if he didn't go with Gu Lichuan, then he could go back home directly, and still don't need to wear women's clothes.

Then why did he go with Gu Lichuan.

"But don't forget, my lord, I'm not him, and I won't be able to help my lord if I follow him."

"Of course I know you're not." Gu Lichuan's face sank, "What do you mean now? I'm afraid you have forgotten your own identity. This king is not discussing with you, but telling you to pack up your things tonight. Alright, tomorrow morning, be with me.”

Seeing that there was no possibility of refusal, Liu Huaiqiu could only agree, "Don't be angry, my lord, this concubine doesn't mean that, of course this concubine has not forgotten her identity, this concubine is just afraid that if she doesn't understand anything, it will spoil the good things of the lord."

After so many days, Liu Huaiqiu has figured out Gu Lichuan's temper.

Sometimes Gu Lichuan doesn't really lose his temper, but just pretends, as long as he softens a little, Gu Lichuan will be fine.

He didn't know whether Gu Lichuan still regarded him as that person's substitute, or had a little affection for him.

What he wants is to replace Gu Lichuan's sweetheart and make Gu Lichuan fall in love with him.

So if you don't make Gu Lichuan angry, you won't make Gu Lichuan angry.

Although Gu Lichuan has someone in his heart, after all, he is the one who is by Gu Lichuan's side now. He believes that with his charm, Gu Lichuan will fall in love with him sooner or later.

At that time, he will be able to hold Gu Lichuan in his hands.

Hearing what Liu Huaiqiu said, Gu Lichuan's temper instantly softened.

He was not willing to be aggressive with Liu Huaiqiu at first, and he was just putting on a show just now.

He kissed Liu Huaiqiu's cheek again, and said: "You don't need to understand anything, just stay by my side, you know?"

Liu Huaiqiu nodded obediently.

-

In the evening, Liu Huaiqiu sneaked to the back door while Gu Lichuan was going to the study, and blew a whistle.

Two people flashed out of the back door immediately.

After Liu Huaiqiu learned that he was going to Changbei County with Gu Lichuan, he asked Kang Wang to pass on the eyeliner he had left in the mansion.

He had to see King Kang.

Kang Wang ordered Liu Huaiqiu to be informed.

Finally, the two discussed when Gu Lichuan was not around.

Seeing King Kang and Queen Xian, Liu Huaiqiu smiled excitedly and said: "Yong'an, you are finally here."

"Huai Qiu, how are you? Did Gu Lichuan tell you? He wants you to go to Changbei with him."

Liu Huaiqiu nodded, "I've already said it."

"The road to Changbei is extremely dangerous. When he proposed it, I persuaded the emperor to refuse, but the emperor agreed." Kang Wang looked annoyed, "I really don't know what Gu Lichuan is thinking about."

"Could he have known that it was Huai Qiu who disguised himself as a woman? After all, we haven't been able to find out who his sweetheart is for so long." Xian Wang also looked worried.

Liu Huaiqiu did not agree with King Xian's statement, "Probably not, if a person like Gu Lichuan knew that I was a man disguised as a woman, how could he treat me so well."

"And I'm still a man, how could he go down and kiss a man."

What Liu Huaiqiu said was true.

He felt that after so many days, Gu Lichuan's gentleness did not appear to be pretending, but he really had a sweetheart.

Because he has someone he likes, he naturally knows how to behave when facing the person he likes.

Gu Lichuan's performance was not fake at all.

"D-kiss you? Huai Qiu, did he kiss you? Besides kissing you, did he, did he..." Hearing Liu Huaiqiu's words, King Xian's expression was indescribable.

Even Kang Wang's expression became very ugly.

Liu Huaiqiu only realized what he said after a while.

It's been such a long time.He's used to it, he doesn't find it strange at all, if Gu Lichuan forgets to kiss him one day, he will think about it.

But in front of the person you like, say that other people kiss you.

Liu Huaiqiu felt regretful.

He secretly glanced at Kang Wang, blushing and said: "Yeah, it's not a kiss, it's just an accidental touch."

"Not to mention doing other things, we two slept in separate rooms, I'm a man, how could I do other things with Gu Lichuan."

Kang Wang and Xian Wang stared at Liu Huaiqiu for a while.

After a long time, Kang Wang said slowly: "That's good, as long as Gu Lichuan didn't take advantage."

"Huai Qiu, you must be careful about Gu Lichuan, I don't know what Gu Lichuan looks like in front of you, but he must not be a good person."

"You must not be deceived by him before."

"Going to Changbei County this time is also very dangerous. You must protect yourself, otherwise I don't know how to explain to the prime minister."

Liu Huaiqiu nodded, "Don't worry, Yong'an, I will be fine."

"Yong'an came to see me, it must not be as simple as telling me these things, is there anything else Yong'an wants to tell me?"

"Indeed there is." Kang Wang didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "I checked the classics, and after the flood, there will usually be a plague, and I heard that there seems to be a plague there, but I was afraid that the people who helped the disaster would not go, so I secretly Keep it a secret, while protecting yourself, see if you can think of a way to keep Gu Lichuan in Changbei."

"Yong'an is, does it mean that Gu Lichuan will never come back?" Liu Huaiqiu stared at Kang Wang in fear.

King Kang nodded, "The emperor sent Gu Lichuan to help the disaster this time, which already shows that the emperor has given Gu Lichuan the crown prince."

"When he comes back from disaster relief, I'm afraid he will issue an imperial edict to make Gu Lichuan the crown prince."

"At that time, I'm afraid it will be too late, so I can only let Gu Lichuan stay in Changbei forever."

"Since Gu Lichuan asked you to go with him, it will save a lot of trouble. As long as he is infected with the plague, he will definitely not be able to come back."

"Generally, as long as a plague occurs, the entire county may be destroyed, and the city can only be closed and wait to die."

Liu Huaiqiu looked at King Kang for a long time without speaking.

He knew that in order to earn that seat, there must be no brotherhood, and it seemed normal for brothers to fight each other.

In the past, he thought that Gu Lichuan was cruel and ruthless, disregarding human life, and he also felt that Gu Lichuan was dead, and letting Yongan sit in that position saved the people of the world.

But after getting along for so many days, he feels that Gu Lichuan is not like the kind of person who treats human life like a straw.

If Gu Lichuan was really violent, why would he specifically ask people to take in those homeless children? Not only did he give these children a place to live, he even hired a teacher to teach those children.

Gu Lichuan explained that it was for his own use in the future, but he still didn't believe that Gu Lichuan was as hateful as outsiders said.

If Gu Lichuan died, what would happen to those children?

And just now Yong'an said that as long as there is a plague, the city can only be closed and wait to die.

Gu Lichuan will never come back, so what about him?

Did Yong'an ever think that he would also be sealed in Changbei, and stay in Changbei forever with Gu Lichuan?

"What's wrong with Huai Qiu? Why don't you speak? I know you dare not kill people. I didn't let you do it yourself. It's just that Gu Lichuan accidentally contracted the plague. Huai Qiu doesn't have to worry."

"After Gu Lichuan is infected with the plague, I will send someone to pick you up and seal the city."

After Kang Wang finished speaking, Liu Huaiqiu still didn't speak, and Kang Wang became a little anxious, "Could it be that Huai Qiu has feelings for Gu Lichuan and is reluctant to let Gu Lichuan die?"

"Huai Qiu, you must not believe what Gu Lichuan told you, they are all lies."

"If Gu Lichuan is allowed to sit in that position, then the people of Li Ming in this world will be in dire straits."

Seeing Kang Wang anxious, Liu Huaiqiu came back to his senses.

Yong'an is indeed a good person, like a wise king, perhaps, he should listen to Yong'an.

His original intention of approaching Gu Lichuan was also to help Yong'an take that position.

Immediately, Liu Huaiqiu nodded, "Don't worry, Yong'an, I will find a way to make Gu Lichuan suffer from the plague."
