Chapter 56

This is the first time Gu Nian has stepped into An Chuzhuo's mansion, it is not as magnificent as she imagined, but it is extremely elegant.

The pavilions, terraces and pavilions are well arranged, one step at a time, one scene at a time, with jagged rocks, and a cluster of moso bamboos, small and small, growing vigorously.

The housekeeper of the Prince Regent's Mansion, with Gu Nian, found An Chuzhuo who was fishing by the lake, but there was not a single lake fish caught in his fish pocket.

"My humble minister, Gu Yekuo, see the Regent."

Gu Nian stood one meter away from An Chuzhuo, kneeling on the bluestone slab.

Quietly, no one answered her.

"My humble minister Gu Yekuo, see the Regent!" Gu Nian's voice amplified.

"Shh, keep your voice down, look, you have scared the fish away." An Chuzhuo put down the fishing rod in his hand, and cleaned his hands under the service of his servants.

"Tell me, what's the matter, it's worth you coming to my house in person."

"I came here for one thing. I don't know if the Regent has read the brochure I handed over. If not, I have another copy here. I implore the Regent for permission." Gu Nian put the newly prepared brochure in his sleeve. presented before him.

"Look, no." An Chuzhuo said without any emotion.

With a snap, the handkerchief was thrown into the copper basin, splashing a splash of water, and after getting wet, it sank to the bottom of the water again.

"Why?" Gu Nian blurted out without thinking. After finishing speaking, she felt that she had said the wrong thing and knelt down on the ground again.

Imperial power, imperial power, where is it her turn to question.

An Chuzuo looked at her coldly, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, the former Gu Nian would not be so cautious in front of him.

From that day on, everything changed...

"Ye Kuo, do you think I am violent, cruel and ruthless? But if you stand in my situation, you will definitely make the same choice as me. Why can't you forgive me? You can't forgive yourself either. Abandon me For those who have gone, we should not stay in the day of yesterday, we should all look forward."

An Chuzhuo endured it for a long time, but still wanted to say these words.

Anyone can go to sea, but she can't!

"Regent, I let myself go, so I chose to go to sea. I have different ways, and I don't conspire with each other. No one is wrong. It is impossible to say whether to forgive or not. This is a memorial. I hope you can approve it. "

Gu Nian did not dare to look up at him, she was afraid that she would not be able to hold back the tears.

All the past has become yesterday...

"Okay! Then as you wish..."

……

In July of Zhou Guo[-], Gu Nian stood on a treasure ship heading for the Atlantic Ocean, with snow-white sails, amidst the roar of the sea, set sail.

In the blue sea, the giant ship is driving on the surface, surging white waves, free seagulls are flying in the sky, singing happily.

Gu Nian's mood became more relaxed when she was away from that land.

She admits that she is a coward now, unable to save the common people, and unable to change the status quo. She loves that land, but because of this, she is afraid of becoming the same person as An Chuzhuo.

He was right. If she was in the same position, she might do even more than him. She dared not face herself like this.

She let herself go because she chose to escape reality.

"Nian'er, Nian'er, what are you thinking about? Look, are we coming soon?" Gu Qingyue pointed at the small black dot in the distance, her words revealed joy,
On the sea level, the sun coated the sea with a layer of gold, the treasure ship accelerated, faster and faster, the tall buildings stood in the distance, and slowly came into everyone's sight, and the rays of the sun also covered it with a layer of golden mist, hazy hazy.

On the vast sea, I have been wandering for a long time, and I am used to seeing the same scenery, but I suddenly miss the feeling of being down-to-earth.

Not only Gu Qingyue, but the whole crew on board were a little excited. This emotion was complicated. Being in the depths of the sea, surrounded by sea water, they especially longed to see the land.

After all, people are social animals, and the buildings in the distance are the hope that can be clearly seen.

Gu Nian came back to her senses and nodded: "Well, it's here."

After going through several checkpoints, Gu Nian held Zhou Guo's customs clearance disk, and was regarded as the guest of honor by this ancient country, which is very different from Zhou Guo in terms of customs and customs.

Gu Qingyue quietly tugged at the hem of Gu Nian's clothes, looked at Queen Guli on the high seat, and said curiously: "Nian'er, look at them, what are they talking about? The Holy Majesty is still a woman, with blue and green eyes like It's a monster, nothing like us!"

While listening to her talk, Gu Nian held her hand under the table, Gu Qingyue's palms were sweaty, and there was some fear in this curiosity.

"Mom, it's okay."

Guli's language is very different from modern English. Gu Nian stayed here for five months and learned some basic spoken language. Although there were some bumps in the communication between the two countries, the final result was still good.

The porcelain and silk she brought from Zhou State were all replaced by local specialties. Among them, she also found corn seeds, which was the biggest harvest of her trip.

Came here with excitement, returned with exhaustion, Gu Nian continued on the journey.

The long wind on the sea scratched her cheeks, and her skin was tanned, and she couldn't see her previous appearance at all.

From Guli to Chenla, and then from Chenla to Pahang, Gu Nian exchanged local specialties for more resources and wealth, and established a good development for Zhou's diplomacy. momentum.

Along the way, Gu Nian also discovered corn, cucumbers, and even potatoes, which are drought-resistant and high-yielding crops.

After sailing around for nearly two and a half years, Gu Nian plans to set off to return to China, and has visited several nearby countries, so it is time to go back to China.

On the way back, the boatmen talked about their relatives and friends in Zhou Guo. Never before has a journey like this one made people look forward to it.

Desperate to see their loved ones, across thousands of mountains and rivers, seeing too many foreigners with red hair and green eyes, I miss everything about Zhou Guo.

When he was about to set foot on the territory of Zhou Kingdom, Gu Nian realized that his heart had never left this place, and his homeland was hard to leave.

Inexplicably, I still feel a little timid in my heart, wondering what the emperor has become?I don't know if the regent is doing well?
It should be good...

The anchor stopped the boat, and Gu Nian stood on the deck, looking at the coast getting closer and closer, imagining the scene of tears in his eyes, and finally felt a little joy in his heart.

"Gu Zongbing, don't you want to go? They all went down." The boatman asked her when he passed by her.

Gu Nian blinked, suppressed the churning emotions in her heart, and said with a light smile, "Let's go."

After getting off the boat, Gu Nian looked at the emperor wearing a dragon robe, feeling familiar, she choked up, and a line of hot tears flowed down her dark red cheeks.

A trembling voice said: "I, Gu Yekuo, kowtowed to the Holy Majesty, lived up to the entrustment of the Holy Majesty, sailed for three years, and finally...returned to the homeland!"

"Please hurry up, the chief soldier has worked hard."

Gu Nianchang took a breath, and a simple sentence made her want to burst into tears. All the hardships she had experienced in the past few years disappeared in an instant.

worth!
