Gu Zhizhang gritted his teeth and felt that this daughter was really serious. She was ignorant and didn't speak up, and she always got into trouble.
If it weren't for the fact that she was the princess at this time, Gu Zhizhang could no longer control her and would definitely give this woman a lesson. Did he just like Gu Qiang? The relationship between the two of them has long since faded.
"What you said means nothing to me anymore. I don't want to marry Shen Zhongbai. In order to prevent being implicated, your Gu family's best choice is to fight Princess Luoping out. I think you should also know, so today , Gu Qiang paid homage to his father here."
After saying that, Gu Qiang knelt on the ground and worshiped Gu Zhizhang, then turned to give Shen Qianshan a look and walked away slowly.
After Gu Zhizhang heard the door being closed, his eyes suddenly darkened. He gritted his teeth, but felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.
He even felt that as a father, he had never really thought about Gu Qiang. He chased after her, opened the door, and saw that the shadows of Gu Qiang and Shen Qianshan had disappeared in front of the study.
She still left. If she really stayed in the Gu family, Shen Zhongbai would not be able to marry Gu Qiang, and he would definitely have to test the Gu family. Gu Qiang said that he wanted to sever ties with the Gu family, but he didn't expect that Gu Qiang was actually protecting the Gu family. .
It's just that this method is too extreme, and in many cases it is not necessary to deal with things by breaking up.
That night, everything in Gu Qiang's yard was moved out, causing a huge wave in the house.
At that time, Ye and Gu Zhihua were drinking tea in the courtyard. When they heard the news, they both sprayed tea in each other's face.
Then Gu Zhihua smiled and said: "Mother, after Gu Qiang leaves, will the position of the legitimate daughter of the Gu family belong to me?"
Mrs. Ye touched the teacup in her hand, thought for a while, and a smile appeared on her lips, as if she had thought of something. He said to Gu Zhihua: "You have spent enough time in the Gu family. It's time to go back to the third prince's house. Now that Gu Qiang is gone, you are the legitimate daughter of the Gu family. The Gu family will definitely give all their hopes to you." Pressing on you, Shen Zhongbai will definitely take you seriously, don't worry."
Gu Zhihua smiled lightly, as if he felt that his good days were finally coming.
In the early morning of the next day, Shen Zhongbai showed up at Gu's house on time. At that time, Prime Minister Gu, Ye Shi or Gu Zhihua were having dinner.
Shen Zhongbai was dressed in black clothes and had a white gauze tied on his head. This was to mourn the death of the late emperor.
He stood coldly not far from the table, followed by two guards.
Gu Zhizhang stood up and saluted Shen Zhongbai, then invited Shen Zhongbai to sit down. But Shen Zhongbai stood there without moving. After scanning the faces of Ye and Gu Zhihua, he asked, "I heard that Qian'er has moved away?"
Gu Zhizhang nodded, smiled awkwardly, and said to Shen Zhongbai: "My little girl is ignorant and threatened to sever ties with the Gu family. The veteran thought about it and felt that if His Highness the Third Prince insists on marrying my little girl, there is no point in severing ties with her." What. All this is just to see what His Highness wants."
"Are you threatening me? If she is really separated from the Gu family, it will be easier for me to get her. Have you thought clearly?" Shen Zhongbai said.
Gu Zhizhang thought for a while and said: "You may already be the emperor at that time. As the emperor, you can do whatever you want. However, if His Highness insists, I will regard our Zhihua as your legitimate daughter. Our Gu family will take all rights It’s all on Zhi Hua. If His Highness had just ascended the throne, no one would be trustworthy. How about the old minister?”
Shen Zhongbai gritted his teeth and weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
If he really becomes the emperor, he will definitely have his own confidants in the court. But now he doesn't have it at all.
He didn't know what the impression was on the minds of his ministers and how many people believed him.
Gu Zhizhang is the prime minister of the court. After so many years, his connections in the court are much wider than his own. If he ascends the throne in the future, he will definitely need Gu Zhizhang's help.
I thought that Gu Zhizhang was just a timid person who would do anything to protect his family, but didn't expect that one day he would finally enlighten
Gu Zhihua's heart moved, waiting for Shen Zhongbai to say that he wanted to go back. Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, Shen Zhongbai said slowly: "Zhihua, please go back with me today."
Gu Zhihua's heart blossomed at that moment, and he lowered his head and smiled.
Mrs. Ye also smiled. That afternoon, Gu Zhihua got on Shen Zhongbai's sedan chair and left the Gu family to go to the residence of the Three Emperors.
Gu Qiang ordered Tingfeng to move all his belongings to the house he found, and followed Shen Qianshan to Xiaoyao Mountain.
In the wing by the lake, Gu Qiang leaned quietly in the pavilion, drinking tea and looking at the surrounding scenery.
There is a huge maple leaf forest in Xiaoyao Mountain in Shen Qianshan. At this time, the maple leaves are as beautiful as ink paintings.
Shen Qianshan walked to Gu Qiang and sat down slowly. He turned around and handed her a box with a chuckle, and said to her: "The scenery here is very beautiful. If you like it, I will give it to you later, far away from the capital." Do you like the hustle and bustle, fertile fields, trees, maids and servants?"
He spoke calmly, and Gu Qiang turned to look at him, her eyes swaying, and the tea cup in her hand twirled, as if she heard something from these words.
"What do you mean? If you marry me later, this place will be mine. Why do you say after?"
After Gu Qiang came out of Gu's house, she relaxed a lot and was in a good mood. She didn't think there was anything wrong with this at that time, but the sudden relaxation made her too comfortable.
This is the most comfortable time since she lost her memory.
"That's because... I think this yard is good, so I gave it to you. When it comes to Qian'er, I really want to ask you, if I'm no longer here one day, will you find another man?" Shen Qianshan pretended. Tsukuru asked casually, and then swallowed, feeling very nervous.
Gu Qiang seemed to suddenly think of something at this time. It seemed that someone had reminded him before that Shen Qianshan was a short-lived ghost.
When did it happen? It's clearly on the edge of my head, but no matter how much I think about it, I can't figure it out clearly.
"If you die, then I can't live alone. I have to die with you. It's rare to have a close friend in life. If not, how could I be worthy of your deep love for me?" Gu Qiang said with a smile.
Shen Qianshan just felt that his eyes were wet, and his heart was also wet. He didn't want to accompany Gu Qiang through thousands of mountains and rivers, but if he didn't do that, Gu Qiang wouldn't be able to get what he wanted. things.
As long as there is something Gu Qiang wants to do, Shen Qianshan will definitely help her achieve it.
A strong wind seemed to blow up all around instantly, and the moisture came up. Gu Qiang shivered, and then slowly turned her head to look at Shen Qianshan.
When he met the latter's eyes, Gu Qiang's heart moved. His eyes seemed to be full of mountains and rivers, and he was so affectionate that he almost fell into despair, but Gu Qiang remained silent.
She saw abandonment in his eyes, which was a terrible thing. When she looked again, she found that Shen Qianshan had returned to his original appearance.
She thought she had seen it wrong, so she heard Shen Qianshan ask: "The medicine introduction is ready. This will be a long process. The poison doctor said it will take about half a month for you to recover your memory. This is the best for you." It won’t hurt.”
Gu Qiang nodded. She was even gearing up. It was very interesting to meet her past self.
She might get some things that she didn't want to think about, but since her previous self was alive and didn't look too bad, she gradually felt relieved.
"I understand. I'll just make do with you these days. There's nothing you can do if you're angry. That's all I can do anyway," Gu Qiang said.
Shen Qianshan smiled. He would not be angry. On the contrary, he would cherish the time with her and always remember all her moments.
That night, Gu Qiang was lying on the bed. Gu Huai'an came over and brought over the first medicine and introduction. He watched quietly as Gu Qiang drank all the medicine, his eyes twinkling.
She looked at the bottomed bowl, raised her eyes and said strangely: "It's a bit fishy, the medicine is quite strange, but I don't know how effective it is."
Gu Huaian grinned awkwardly, and after observing Gu Qiang carefully, he stopped talking, as if he was thinking about something.
Gu Qiang fell asleep after drinking the medicine.
She closed the door quietly and stepped out. The moonlight shone on the open space in front of the door, and shone coolly on Gu Huaian's body as he walked out.
In the pavilion, Shen Qianshan's face was pale, and he stood there with his hands behind his back. In front of him was a huge pool of water, as calm as a mirror. He stood on it, his heart as calm as water.
Gu Huaian picked up the soup and medicine bowl and looked at it carefully under the moonlight, frowning.
Behind Shen Qianshan, Gu Huaian stepped forward, raised his eyes to the sky, and then asked softly: "Are you really planning to do that? Do you know..."
Shen Qianshan turned around and met Gu Huaian's eyes with a smile. He was no longer as reluctant as he was in front of Gu Qiang before, but with a calmness that was close to understanding.
"Brother, you must quickly become stronger and protect Qian'er well. The only way I can go is this far. There is a long road ahead. I hope everything goes well for you."
Gu Huaian pursed his lips and his eyes were wet: "Ninth Prince, I am incompetent. If I had taken my sister out before, this situation would not have happened. You must get better. Please, my sister cannot live without you. If possible, I would like to take your place."
"What are you talking about? If Qian'er wakes up and finds that you are not there, she will go crazy. So it's best for me to do this. Fortunately, Qian'er hasn't fallen in love with me yet, so even if I No matter what, it doesn’t matter…”
