Gu Qiang had a splitting headache. He was breathing heavily, but the pain in his head was still not relieved.
Shen Qianshan picked her up and walked to the pavilion nearby. She was as light as a feather, and like a Buddha flower in the autumn wind, breaking into pieces when rubbed.
After sitting down, Gu Qiang's head finally felt better.
The sweat on her back had already wet her shirt. She knew that what made her more uncomfortable than the headache was the way she looked in the dream.
There are many kinds of dreams I have had before, and together they can be considered a touching story.
Sometimes it was in Prime Minister Gu's house, sometimes it was in the sky above the capital, and sometimes it was in nothingness.
Every dream is a story, but there is no one that she can always remember like just now.
"I'm fine, don't worry." She covered her head, her face pale, and she didn't look like she was fine.
Shen Qianshan bit his lips tightly.
The faint fragrance of his body surrounded Gu Qiang, and there was originally a hint of cold breath, but it all melted away when he was next to her.
"Why don't you stay in your room in the middle of the night and wander around in the yard?" Gu Qiang asked.
She finally calmed down and wanted to break away from the endless nightmare. The most important thing was to intentionally ignore all the things that were deeply ingrained in her mind.
She wanted to talk to Shen Qianshan, and she could say anything, as long as it could get those things out of her mind.
Because she discovered with some horror that what Gu Qiang said in her dream was gradually becoming reality.
Sure enough, she... or became a monster
But at what point does one become a monster? Can he be called a monster if he indirectly killed Sun Linhua? What is a woman like Sun Linhua, a woman who can't even let go of children
Shen Qianshan raised his eyes slightly, and in front of him was a clear spring. Because the water source was very developed on Xiaoyao Mountain, half of the building was built on the water.
The sound of the rushing water is very pleasant, making people's hearts calm down in an instant.
"I was thinking, it turns out that I personally ruined my mother's family." Shen Qianshan said.
Gu Qiang didn't know whose family Shen Qianshan's so-called mother-in-law belonged to, but she knew that Shen Qianshan was not the biological child of the current Queen Mother.
In places like the palace and harem, no matter which dynasty the emperor's women were from, they would not give birth to many children. The intrigues and mutual jealousies in the palace were like fire, burning those women black and blue.
Every woman thought that she was the one standing at the top of the Emperor's heart, but little did they know that the heart was beating uneasily and no one could tame it.
Living in such an environment, it is normal for Shen Qianshan's character to be cold and biting.
"Your mother-in-law's family? But the Su family?" Gu Qiang asked. In addition to the bad diseases in Beijing recently, the biggest thing happened when Shen Qianshan reported the Su family, and the Su family was wiped out overnight.
The one that Shen Qianshan can remember deeply is probably the Su family.
Shen Qianshan smiled helplessly, and in the corridor not far away, Gu Suliang walked slowly over, holding a pot of hot tea in his hand. The morning breath hit her face, and she yawned, obviously just waking up.
Shen Qianshan poured out the tea, handed it to Gu Qiang, and continued: "Yes, the Su family has deep roots in the capital. Although the family has a great business, it is low-key. A family that can provide the royal family with concubines and queens has never It didn’t attract the attention of the royal family and the court.”
"Maybe... the royal family has paid attention to it, but they didn't dare to take any action?" Gu Qiang asked.
Shen Qianshan held up the teacup and paused his hand in the air, thinking thoughtfully, could it really be what Gu Qiang said? The royal family had long discovered that the Su family was developing rapidly without them noticing, and had penetrated into all parts of the country. However, they had been suffering from no solution, so they just let it go
He said he didn't care, but was sent to hell by Shen Qianshan in the end
Shen Qianshan was covered in cold sweat, and he vaguely realized that he seemed to have entered a huge trap.
In the entire royal family, except for the emperor who has been suffering from chronic health problems, the short-sighted empress Su, and the old and frail empress dowager, who else has such an IQ and can lay out such a powerful chess game
Shen Zhongbai
Although that man was not as cynical and arrogant as he appeared, he was not as smart as Shen Qianshan imagined. This trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife was so beautiful, it must not have been planned by one or two people.
Shen Qianshan leaned on the chair, raised his eyes to the sky, and sighed heavily: "The Su family deserves this disaster. The tree is big and attracts the wind. No matter how low-key you are, some things cannot be overcome."
He looked like an old man over fifty years old. He spoke with a deep voice. Gu Qiang also laughed. She didn't know the relationship between the Su family and Shen Qianshan, nor did she know how far the Su family had developed. Naturally... also I don’t know why Shen Qianshan regrets so much.
He calmed down and softly told Gu Qiang about the past.
Just like Sun Linhua said before, he doesn't trust women. This comes from his mother.
Her mother is a woman from the Su family.
The women of the Su family can't be said to be very beautiful, but because the family makes medicinal materials, they always have a smell that is different from ordinary women. There is no woman with such a temperament in the entire capital.
It's probably because the royal family always needs fresh blood to attract men's attention. The harem is a place where all kinds of women gather. If there are special women, they will get special favors.
Shen Qianshan's mother was the eldest son and daughter of the Su family. Her appearance was quite iconic and her personality was good. After entering the palace, she was favored by the emperor. However, the woman's natural personality seemed not suitable for living in the palace. Where there was intrigue, it was a bit strange that it was forced in the end.
In this case, she didn't do anything to anyone else, but she actually did something to her son who had just been born.
Poor little Shen Qianshan spent his whole life in a dark room until he was three years old, with a maid bringing food in through the window.
He was still young at that time and did not know what he had done wrong. Likewise, he also did not know that some people would be punished even if they did nothing wrong.
Gu Qiang listened quietly, and Shen Qianshan stopped when he said this.
What did he know before he was three years old? But some things are already engraved in the bones.
A woman who can be so cruel to her own children, is there any woman in the world worthy of his trust
Gu Qiang did not answer, and Shen Qianshan seemed to have given up telling the story that made him uncomfortable.
The tea on the table had gone cold. He raised his eyes and said, "So, Su Shuangning is my cousin. She is the legitimate daughter of my uncle's family. But the Su family has a big business, so there will definitely be no good results."
The sky is getting brighter, and the white fish belly in the east looks soothing.
She stood up and said to Shen Qianshan, "I didn't sleep well last night. I'm going to catch up on my sleep."
Shen Qianshan suddenly took Gu Qiang's hand. It was cold. She was still wearing a white shirt. In the cold air in the morning, it was easy to get sick.
But he didn't want to let Gu Qiang go yet. If he just let her go, then he didn't know when he would see her again.
"Qian'er, do you still remember what I discussed with your brother before? If you want to find your previous memories, I have to leave the capital to prepare the medicinal materials." Shen Qianshan said.
Only then did Gu Qiang remember that he had lost his memory for a long time.
In fact, Gu Qiang knew that Shen Qianshan desperately hoped that she could remember something. After all, if she really had her previous memories, she would be able to remember how good Shen Qianshan was to her.
People are not selfless, they have been giving silently, and they still hope to get something in return.
She was silent for a long time. The wind blew from the east and raised her hair. She didn't use any spices on her body, but she already smelled very good.
"Okay, I'll go with you." Since it's her business, she should help.
Shen Qianshan was stunned for a moment and said nothing more.
The autumn wind came, Gu Qiang shivered, and the surrounding temperature dropped suddenly. She tightened her clothes, stood up, and wanted to walk away again, but Shen Qianshan took advantage of the early morning light and asked softly: "You've never been curious, have I ever liked Su Shuangning?"
Gu Qiang was stunned. This problem had indeed troubled her in a short time.
Of course, the relationship between men and women cannot be explained clearly. She knew that her feelings for Shen Qianshan were not yet unforgettable, but it was not the kind of situation where people could share it easily.
When Gu Qiang needed to find someone she believed in most, Shen Qianshan did the most unbelievable thing for her.
She turned her head. Since Shen Qianshan wanted to talk, it was still early, so there was no harm in listening.
Gusu Liang had already come up to change the tea. Different from the sleepy look last time, this time Gusu Liang looked at the two of them with something strange in their eyes, as if the two of them had done something to feel sorry for her.
You don't need to think about it to know that it must be Gusu Liang who knew about Shen Qianshan's death of Sun Linhua. She had always had different feelings for Sun Linhua and always treated the girl with a little leniency.
She is a guard and a killer, but unlike ordinary killers, she has a touch of humanity in her.
This is sometimes a good thing, but it is also a hindrance.
The Su family's original family is not in the capital, and Jiangnan is their roots.
I thought that no one would do anything to them in their own territory, but in a fire, the entire Su family was burned down. It was really a big fire, because the Su family was making medicinal materials, and the medicinal materials were burned. Just burned everything.
Fortunately, their family is very well off, and at least they can barely survive on the surface.
Mr. Su also saw from this incident that the Su family was not as indestructible as he thought, so he naturally wanted to marry off his most proud and precious girl and find a man worthy of his trust.
