chapter 126
When Gou Yue came home in the middle of the night, Wen Yuanzhi was already lying on the bed and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

She held the closet and quietly changed out of her night clothes.

"what……"

Even though she was careful, Gou Yue still pulled the wound, which made her groan and take a breath.

There was no light in the room, so Gou Yue looked back at Wen Yuanzhi through the moonlight, and secretly took a selfie on her chest.

Fortunately, fortunately, he didn't hear it.

She put on her pajamas, took off her shoes, stood on the bed and tiptoed over Wen Yuanzhi, who was sleeping outside.

Wen Yuanzhi seemed to hear something, turned over and rubbed the place inside where Gou Yue slept.

Without enough time to cover herself with the quilt, Gou Yue hurriedly lay down.

Wen Yuanzhi put his hand on Gou Yue's hand and fumbled around, holding her hand, and then his breathing stabilized again.

After Wen Yuanzhi calmed down, Gou Yue lightly covered himself with the quilt.

"came back?"

Wen Yuanzhi's voice was filled with a smile, and he suddenly spoke, startling Gou Yue.

"Ah," Gou Yue responded, "aren't you asleep?"

"How can I sleep if you don't come back?" Wen Yuanzhi has good eyes and a good nose.

As soon as Gou Yue gets close, you can smell the faint floral fragrance and water vapor on Gou Yue's body.

Gou Yue smiled sheepishly, "I went out to resolve the grievances between Jianghu and Jianghu. You are not a Jianghu person, so just leave it alone."

Wen Yuanzhi raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Have all the grudges been resolved?"

She pretended to close her eyes and fall asleep after a few words.

Gou Yue did not open her eyes, and was meditating on the bed with her eyes closed. During these times, Liangzhu had changed so much that she could faintly feel the threat hidden in the dark.

She knew that Wen Yuanzhi had gotten up early at this time.

A diligent person like him usually gets up when the rooster crows for the first time.

Jin Ge knew Gou Yue's habits and was not in a hurry to come and serve her in the morning.

I cleaned the yard early in the morning, cooked the porridge, and bought gold silk rolls outside, and then I came to Gou Yue in a leisurely manner.

In the tray Jin Ge was holding was a set of moon-white coats and skirts, which Gou Yue was going to wear today.

Seeing Jin Ge come in, Gou Yue got up in a daze.

Jin Ge always used to dress Gou Yue like a purdah lady.

It looks good, but Gou Yue still likes the kind of clothes she wears in the world.

Smart and neat, no need to mention the skirt.

Jin Ge did not comb Gou Yue's hair into a complicated bun today. She tied her hair high on the back of her head with two simple gold hairpins stuck on it.

"Girl, Mr. Ji has been waiting in the front hall for a while."

Ji Pu?

Gou Yue hasn't seen Ji Pu for some days.

I haven't seen him since he came back from Ruozhi. I don't know how he is recovering from his injury and whether his throat is getting better.

Ji Pu was sitting by the stove in the front hall. When Gou Yue came in, he didn't say anything, but turned around and smiled at Gou Yue.

Gou Yue sat opposite him by the fire.

"Are you okay?" Gou Yue asked.

Ji Pu's voice still didn't improve much and he wrote, "Gou Yue, I have to leave."

Gou Yue couldn't believe it, "Let's go, where are you going?"

Ji Pu's voice was very small and could only be heard when he was very close to her.

Gou Yue moved towards Ji Pu, and then she could barely hear him saying that he wanted to go to Luming Mountain.

"Go back to Luming Mountain, was it Shen Sang who asked you to go back?"

Ji Pu was serving in the imperial court and his official career was at its peak. Ordinarily, there was no reason to return to Luming Mountain.

But now that he has injured his throat, he may be hindered in his official career in the future. He cannot speak like a normal person, which will definitely bring him trouble.

Ji Pu shook his head, "I just want to go back and take a look."

Ji Pu didn't say much, and Gou Yue couldn't ask any more questions.

"Are you feeling better? Can you drink some wine? I buried a jar of good wine under the pomegranate tree, just waiting for the first snow to fall in Liangzhu."

"Since you are about to leave, dig it out today!"

The two of them were digging with small shovels, knowing full well that this would be a long separation and not being able to see each other again, so neither of them could say take care first.

Not long after, a wine jar sealed with beeswax was carried out by two people.

Ji Pu held the wine jar and gave Gou Yue a thumbs up, "Good wine!"

Sitting there under the pomegranate tree, two people, a plate of peanuts and a jar of wine.

People who are leaving always have endless things to say, but they don’t know how to express themselves when the words come to their lips.

After Ji Pu was seriously injured, his health was not as good as before. Qian Dayu was lucky enough to survive, but his skills were hard to recover for a while.

This trip back to Luming Mountain, away from Kettering's worries, maybe he can slowly rebuild from the place where he first learned his cultivation.

The sun sets in the west, the north wind blows again, and the wine jar is empty.

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

Everyone knows that there is always a banquet in the world.

Gou Yue didn't dare to ask when he would come back because she was worried that she would ask him to stay. If he had already made up his mind, why would she bother him.

"Your Majesty, the sun has set to the west." With victory or defeat decided, Wen Yuanzhi cleaned up the chess game.

Over the years since the fusion of Yan and Chu, Modu has now learned the formations of the Yan people, but he is still not very smart in front of Wen Yuanzhi.

"I have something on my mind. I really lost a little bit." Modu said.

As soon as the Han family's power weakens, its power to check and balance other aristocratic families will weaken.

Various aristocratic families have strengthened themselves and tried to replace the Han family. There has been a trend of disintegration within the aristocratic families. However, this chaos has made Liangzhu become more unstable recently.

Mo Du casually pulled out a few memorials from under the table, half of which were written by Mr. Xie asking for a thorough investigation into Concubine Xian's death and to give her justice.

He was particularly troubled by this. At the smallest scale, various things were related to the harem, but at the largest scale, they were related to the court.

"What kind of advice does Wen Xiang have?" Wen Yuanzhi glanced at the memorial, and he knew what was written in it without even looking at it.

"The good concubine has passed away, and Mrs. Xie thought she wanted to take advantage of her death to gain something. If your majesty wants to put things to rest, you can just listen to their nonsense and make some choices."

Mo Du and Wen Yuan coincided with each other.

Wen Yuanzhi also knew what Mo Du was thinking.

"Ms. Xie is just squeezing out the last bit of value from her. None of these people really feel sorry for her, but they all have their own agendas," Mo Du said.

"I am going to make Xie Xuan, the eldest son of Xie, a third-grade general of the Forbidden Army and command the guards of the capital."

The edict was just waiting to be printed. After reading it, Wen Yuanzhi respectfully put it on the table and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

The king and his ministers know each other, and the Yuan wishes.

Han Fu's surname was Han, and she was originally the daughter of the Han family. It was Old General Han who planned to send her to the palace.

If nothing else, the Xie family should have a share of the Han family's current glory.

After General Han left, the Han family in the court became worse and worse day by day.

Although Han Cheng, the empress, was there to support him, if the Han family could not be stabilized in the court, there would be no more powerful ministers in the future.

No one can say whether His Majesty will favor another woman tomorrow.

For wealthy people, real power is better than gimmicks.

In the past, the Han government was very powerful, led by General Han, and the children of the Han family were exceptionally united.

Those who were good at martial arts practiced in the military camp with General Han, and those who were good at literature studied their books every day to prepare for the imperial examination.

The other families who were not in Liangzhu did a lot of business traveling around, and there was inexhaustible gold and silver.

Now that the Han family's house is in trouble, the other houses have their own plans.

Especially those who were doing business outside saw that the treasures they had brought to Liangzhu by carloads were not replaced by official posts for their children, and the money they gave was not so attentive.

The disintegration of a large clan usually starts from within.

At this time, the Han family urgently needs an opportunity to prove themselves.

Liangzhu's third-grade ginseng general can reunite the Han family.

It's a pity that this piece of fat fell into the hands of the Xie family.

As the saying goes, when a tree falls, the hozens scatter. Those who relied on the Han family in the previous dynasty turned their heads and became sharp swords piercing the Han family.

Wen Yuanzhi came back an hour earlier than usual today, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

When they entered the small house, Gou Yue and Jin Ge were grooming the horses in the stable.

Gou Yue carefully combed the horse's hair on its temples, and Jin Ge braided its hair.When Gou Yue saw this, she also imitated her pattern and braided the horse.

Wen Yuanzhi stood quietly and watched her tie the last strand of mane with fine red silk.

Gou Yuebian was very serious and didn't even notice Wen Yuanzhi behind him.

When she straightened up, she saw the smiling Wen Yuanzhi behind her, "Why did you come back so early today?"

Wen Yuanshang stepped forward and hugged Gou Yue gently, "Everything has been taken care of. It's boring to be outside if I don't come back."

"A Yuan, let's go for a walk on the street."

Liangzhu is more lively at night than during the day, and the lights change the appearance of the street market.

"Here, take this."

Gou Yue, who was looking around on the street, suddenly had something stuffed in Wen Yuanzhi's hand.

Gou Yue took it without knowing why, raised her arm and said, "Is it a rabbit lantern?"

Wen Yuanzhi smiled and said, "Ji Pu bought one for Yao'er before. You said it was interesting to look at."

"How long ago was that?"

"I see that there are quite a lot of rabbit lanterns in Liangzhu, but they are all held by young men and women."

"You want to know why?"

"Yeah." She nodded.

"It is a custom in Liangzhu to give a rabbit lantern to the one you love, which is a sign of a good marriage and a perfect match."

"Is this accurate?" she asked.

"It's just a statement, it depends on whether you believe it or not."

"I believe it." Gou Yue stared at the rabbit lantern.

She thought that she should make one for A Yuan with her own hands. It would be better if there were two rabbit lanterns.

"Did you meet Ji Pu today?"

"Yes, he is going back to Luming Mountain."

"When will you be back?"

"I didn't ask."

"Why not ask."

Gou Yue said, "If you don't ask about the return date, you won't miss it."

Wen Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment, "How do you say that?"

"If he tells me when he will come back, I will always think about that day. If he doesn't tell me, I will gradually stop thinking about him so much."

Wen Yuan said, "Ji Pu was injured, are you still feeling guilty?"

"I will always remember the debt I owe him."

"only this?"

"And our friendship."

Wen Yuanzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Gou Yue, have you ever thought that Ji Pu might not just want to be friends with you?"

She knew Wen Yuanzhi had also noticed it, "So?"

"What would you do if I said he wanted to be nice to you as a man?"

"He has always been nice to me from a man's perspective. After all, he is not a woman." Gou Yue said, "I know what you want to say, why not be more direct. You want to ask what should I do if he likes me?"

Gou Yue held his hand, "He came to me today, and we were digging for wine under the tree, you know? I suddenly remembered that we met an unsolved case on the way to control the flood, so we went to dig a grave in the middle of the night. Digging the soil, We both remembered it, and later we laughed under the tree. When we were tired of laughing, we both drank happily. I looked at him without changing my eyes, and he understood, so neither of us It will embarrass the other person, and some things don’t need to be said at all. Real friends understand each other very well and are willing to consider each other.”
