late night song

Chapter 94
The next day, Liansheng Zhaolie got up in the morning to wash herself up, but the bed in Linyue Pavilion had been made new, and Gu Yuchu had long disappeared.

Last night, she didn't sleep all night. When she got up to pack her bags, she found that she had nothing but a short knife and a divorce note.

She thought about leaving before dawn, so as to avoid the tears in her eyes and the shaking of her soul. But the moment she flew up to the eaves, Gu Yuchu turned around, re-entered the Nuan Pavilion, and took out the jewelry from the makeup box. Plain hairpin.

Since it was given to me, if it were taken back, it would be destroyed and abandoned. This would be a pity.

Why don't you leave it in mind.

After receiving the notification from Liansheng, Qi Jian hesitated again and went to Linyue Pavilion.

The room was as before, with a plate of snacks placed on the soft square table, the Xunmen plain ring on top, and two scrolls of silk beside it.

He opened the silk, which was the Queen's self-confessed letter. It listed all the things that framed Concubine Yi and Yuchi Lin!

Good on you, Gu Yuchu!

In addition to deliberately arousing speculation about Yuchi's orphan at Mengyu Villa and tying his reputation to Yuchi's honor and disgrace in everyone's mouth, he also had proof of the queen's guilt long ago!
She can plan so meticulously, and it is not in vain that she has devoted ten years of cultivation.

It's just that she left the key evidence for Yu Chi's vindication to herself so easily, which was really too easy, but Qi Jie couldn't and couldn't bear to be harshly criticized, because in the end, she still believed in herself.

Putting down the silk, he picked up a piece of pastry and smelled it. He frowned, but quickly relaxed and smiled helplessly.

This is a plate of fresh chestnut cake.

She remembered that he once told her that eating chestnuts would cause rashes all over her body. She really remembered it, but in this way.

Qi Xian took a bite and found that apart from the natural taste of chestnuts, there was no trace of sweetness at all.

Opening the frame, opening the frame, this is the little punishment she gave you from Gu Yuchu, you must not forget it.He was laughing at himself.

Then, he walked to her dressing table. The dressing table was filled with exquisite and new jewelry. The only thing missing was the hairpin that he had given to her personally. At this point, his crumpled mood gradually subsided. It is stretched out, but the dense and tiny wrinkles are still not smoothed out.

He finally understood that no matter how proud and decisive he was, from the moment she left without saying a word, there was already a stone hanging in his heart, filled with indescribable fear and uneasiness.

"Your Majesty, it's time to go to court." Xiao Yuan was at the door at some unknown time and reminded.

"Yes." Qi Jian recovered his thoughts, stood up, put away the Queen's guilty note, and walked out the door with the plate of pastries.

"Tell Xu Zhang to return to the study. No one is allowed to touch it without my order!"

Xiao Yuan took the plate of pastries respectfully and sighed at the loneliness except for Wushan, which was not clouds.

"My lord." He said hesitantly.

"Say."

"Why haven't you made it clear to the princess yet?"

"The more I explain, the less clear it becomes." Qi Jian looked up at the white sky and replied sadly.

"Then why not chase her back?"

"She and I will eventually have to face what happened yesterday, just sooner or later."

"You have a way to keep her, right?"

"She will come back." Qi Jian turned to look at Xiao Yuan and said firmly, "I will definitely let her come back to me willingly."

Xiao Yuan didn't know how to answer, so he had to remain silent. He didn't understand the twists and turns of love between men and women, but he believed in his master and would do what he said, and he would not let the one he loved slip away easily.

After Gu Yuxin learned that the princess had left the palace, she held up her skirt and ran towards Linyue Pavilion without applying makeup.Accidentally, she bumped into Qi Jian on the road. She stopped and gasped for breath.

When their eyes met, Gu Yu's heart burst into tears.

Her sister is gone!Her frame brother is so cruel!

So, without saluting or saying hello, she turned around angrily and turned back the way she came, making a silent protest.

Qi Jian did not chase her, but looked at her back indifferently. He was too lazy to guess what his little daughter was thinking, let alone take care of it. There were still many things waiting for him to do in the court, as well as the unfulfilled promises. There is no need to wait any longer.

Gu Yuchu waited until the morning bell from the bell tower rang and the city gate opened wide. He led his horse and was the first to leave Qidu City.

She couldn't help but look back at the morning market, which was slowly starting to get lively. She wondered if there would ever be a chance to set foot in such a prosperous Qidu City in the future.Goodbye, Kai frame.

See you again, Xiaochu.

Qi Jian looked at Gu Yuchu's back from a distance on the tower and said silently in his heart.

As soon as she galloped forward, Gu Yuchu rode her horse and saw an old couple looking at her from a distance in a pavilion on a hill in the distance, as if they were waiting for her.

So, she rode her horse closer and found that it was Zhenxi Laowang and his wife.

"The old prince and the old princess are well."

Gu Yuchu still greeted him politely. Since even Emperor Ming let him go, let alone Zhenxi Prince's Mansion.
The old princess smiled kindly, but the old king of Zhenxi didn't know her.

"You two got up so early." Gu Yuchu didn't take it seriously and found a topic casually.

"I'm getting older, Qian Mian." The old prince finally spoke. Although Gu Yuchu smiled lightly, he didn't know how to answer. Fortunately, the old princess held her hand, so it wouldn't be so embarrassing.

"Child, where are you going?"

"I don't know. This world is so big, there is always a place for me." She lowered her head and smiled bitterly.

"My child, I always feel very close to you, so I'll give this to you." After that, the old princess stuffed an exquisite and clear ruby ​​red-scaled fish into her hand.

"It's so valuable, and I can't afford it even if I say so little to you." Gu Yuchu quickly returned it, refusing to accept it.

"Since it's given to you, you can certainly bear it." Although the old prince tried to persuade others, his tone was still calm.Seeing their persistence, Gu Yuchu no longer hesitated. How could he not want this free gift?

"Then I would like to thank the old prince and the old princess."

She bowed her head to express her gratitude, and then took a rough look at the red-scaled fish. It was transparent in color and exquisitely carved. It was the best of the best. She was very happy to get such a good treasure. Why don't you bring any silver? In a pinch, this treasure can be exchanged for at least several thousand taels of gold!

Not bad, not bad, she felt pleased with herself, and then she turned the red-scaled fish over and saw the word "Yuchi" clearly engraved on its belly.

Gu Yuchu suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhenxi Old Wang steadily, and saw that Zhenxi Old Wang was also carefully studying her reaction.

It seemed that the old prince had guessed her life experience, but he didn't reveal it, and he didn't know what his intention was. Forget it, since he was leaving the capital, he left the rest to Qi Jian.

She smiled at the old prince, and the old prince smiled back at her. There was no weirdness in that smile, but there was no kindness either. It was as pure and innocent as Baishui.

"Gu Yuchu!" There were horseshoes in the distance, and the shout was full of anger. Gu Yuchu knew it was Gu Fan's child as soon as he heard it.

"Is he your brother?" the old princess asked.

"No."

Before Gu Yuchu could answer, the old prince spoke first.

She glanced at Zhenxi Prince guiltily, thinking that the news of Mengyu Villa spread very quickly, but the old prince's speed was even more astonishing. Within a few days, he had already clearly investigated Gu Fan's life experience. .

"This is my farewell, junior. Take care, both of you." After saying goodbye respectfully, she hurriedly mounted her horse and fled.

The old princess looked at the two fast horses chasing each other, and the dust was flying. She turned to look at King Zhenxi, and gently persuaded him: "Let it go."

The old prince nodded and remained silent, but his heart was already relieved of the past.

The ruby ​​​​Red Scale Fish was left to him by his mother-in-law, Queen Yuchi, before she died. His mother knew that he was forbearing and unwilling, so she did not confess anything, let alone ask him to treat his grandfather's family well, but he knew that his mother In his heart, he still hoped that he could protect Yuchi's bloodline, but it was a pity that he failed to live up to his mother's expectations.

That year, when the Yuchi case occurred, he knew that Yuchiyun's three children had escaped by chance, so he turned a blind eye and did not take action to eradicate the problem, which was a small act of filial piety for his mother.

But he didn't expect that many years later, this child would be involved in Dong Qi's power struggle, and even tricked Qi Anran into confessing his guilt, ruining his long-term plan.

Forget it, it’s all destiny, it’s time to let it go.

From then on, he and the Yuchi clan had nothing to do with each other. This red-scaled fish should be given to her as a memory.

"Let's go back."

The old prince looked at his gray-haired wife in his arms and said softly.Throughout his military life, having her help him and never leave her was a blessing among misfortunes. He should be content.
