Yuehu stood on the side with an embarrassed face, and Chaoyu helped her spread her hands.
"I've been persuading Master Gu not to get out of bed, but he insisted on not listening, and insisted on seeing what you guys are doing behind his back..."
The three of them stood in a row, facing Gu Huaijiang like a child who did something wrong, none of them dared to speak.
They knew what they were doing now, if Gu Huaijiang knew about it, he would definitely not agree to it, and would even stop them.
Gu Huaijiang raised his cane forward, and Yuehu strode forward to support him, with a flattering expression on his face, "Walk slowly, walk slowly."
She was trying to speak for Yu Fu and the others.
Gu Huaijiang knew that she looked like a charming woman, but she was actually a man, so he didn't shy away from the matter of incompatibility between men and women.
He glanced at the faces of the three of them, and finally his eyes fell on Gu Hanmo's face, "In the middle of the night, what are you doing as an elder brother and taking your younger siblings?"
"I… "
Gu Huaijiang is good at picking people, and he picked Gu Hanmo, who is not good at words and can't lie, but the latter dared not tell the truth, so he had to keep silent.
"What about me, do you dare not answer my father's question?"
Gu Hanmo bit the bullet and said: "Father, no matter what the child does, it is to protect you, to protect Guhou Mansion and Gu Jiajun, child..."
"Snapped!"
Gu Huaijiang threw away his cane, and quickly raised his hand to slap Gu Hanmo. The slap was still strong and turned his face away.
"Third brother!"
Yu Fu and Gu Wenqing quickly supported him, they couldn't believe that his always kind father would beat someone, even the most filial Gu Hanmo.
Gu Wenqing immediately knelt down, "Father, don't beat the third brother! This matter is not only the third brother's idea, I also have a part!"
Yu Fu then knelt down, "General, it was I who proposed to find the loyal generals in the court to help, and the third and fourth brothers listened to my advice before going. You know, they will never object to my opinion! "
She took all the responsibility on herself, Yuehu frowned—would Gu Huaijiang beat Yufu together
Gu Huaijiang just stood there and didn't speak again.
After a while, he looked up at the moon in the sky, half a bright moon hung in the night sky, making his face look older and older.
He closed his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "Even if I die, I, Gu Huaijiang, will never do something like killing the king and forcing the palace. You are the children of Guhou's mansion, don't you even have the word loyalty in your heart?"
Everyone was silent.
What Gu Huaijiang said was not wrong. They chose to rise up and resist in order to preserve the Guhou Mansion, which in itself was a kind of treason. Later generations of history books commented that the crime of treason by the Guhou Mansion was certain.
With a thud, Gu Hanmo fell to his knees, "Father, it was my son's fault. My son promises you that even if the knife is on my neck, my son will never do anything that will insult the reputation of the Guhou Mansion."
Gu Huaijiang bent down slowly, helped the three of them up, and left in the night without saying anything.
Before leaving, he glanced at Yuehu as if he had nothing to do, and the latter nodded slightly.
Seeing that the faces of the three of them were not good-looking, Yuehu said haha, "It's so late, you two, go back quickly, and I will accompany Yu Fu back to the west chamber, let's go!"
After Gu Hanmo and the two left, Yuehu sighed, "Yu Fu, what are you going to do next?"
Yu Fu lowered his head dejectedly, "I haven't thought it through yet. The general told me two days ago that he was dissatisfied with His Majesty, and he directly called His Majesty a fool. I thought he would no longer be loyal to such a fool, but I underestimated-"
"You underestimated Gu Hou's loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, didn't you? You are not from Dongling, and you have developed an unruly temperament in Immortal Valley. Naturally, you will not have Gu Hou's thoughts. Think about it, he He has been loyal to Dongling Chaotang all his life, no matter how stupid Emperor Xiao Ning is, he will not be willing to do it for the sake of the late emperor."
Yufu was even more frustrated after hearing this, Yuehu comforted: "Okay, don't be sad, I know you are eager to save people. Gu Hou also knows that you have good intentions, so he didn't reprimand you too much, poor Gu Hanmo was slapped."
The two returned to the West Wing, Yufu sat under the lamp with his chin resting on his shoulders, as if he was still thinking about what method to use to restore the current situation in the Hou Mansion.
Turning his head, he saw Yuehu leaning against the door and staring at her with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Master, it's late at night, why don't you go back to rest?"
"I have something to ask you."
Yu Fu nodded, still looking listless, as if no matter what he did, he was thinking of a way.
Yuehu sat down next to her, and turned her shoulders, "This matter is very serious, let me ask you, do you want to leave Dong Ling with me?"
She took out the token in her bosom, "I asked Emperor Xiaoning for this token in order to prevent Guhou's mansion from reaching the end of the mountain. I didn't expect this day to come so soon. Now that your personal freedom has not been restricted , do you want to leave with me?"
Yu Fu suddenly came to his senses, "Elder Sister, I knew it was you who told the Great General!"
"Wrong, wrong!"
Yuehu stepped away from her three steps away, "I'm more wronged than Dou E! It's clear that your general has been begging me to take you away, so why did I encourage him? Don't you know that Gu Hou has so many children? In fact, what he values most is actually you."
Yu Fu turned his face away, "Elder Sister, you go! Before you get involved in the matter of Gu Hou Mansion, you go away! I can't go, I want to advance and retreat with Gu Hou Mansion!"
Yuehu said helplessly: "What stupid things are you talking about? How can I, the majestic acting head of Immortal Valley, be implicated at will? What's more, with my skills, no one can catch me at all. You are different... "
Yuehu pointed at the tip of her nose, wobbled and said: "You will be captured by Emperor Xiao Ning to be the queen if you are not careful. Emperor Xiao Ning doesn't even care about his old officials in the middle of the court. I don't care about Immortal Valley either. So I'm going to take you away, maybe Guhou Mansion will be safer if you leave!"
If you leave, maybe the Guhou Mansion will be safer.
Yu Fu was thinking about this sentence in a daze, of course she understood that part of the disaster of Guhou Mansion today was because of Ning Chengzhi and Yin Shuo's fear of Guhou Mansion, and half was because of herself.
Ning Chengzhi told her clearly that as long as she is willing to be the empress, Gu Huaijiang will be the head of the country, a status that no one can shake.
If she left, would the situation in Gu Hou Mansion be better
She shook her head fiercely, "Elder Sister, don't lie to me again. I am here, and His Majesty still has a reason to let go of Guhou's mansion. Once I leave, Yin Shuo will definitely fight back by any means. At that time, who will take care of Guhou?" Mansion to intercede? Your Majesty's ten-day period only has seven days left, if I leave now, Guhou Mansion will definitely die!"
Moon Fox let out a long sigh.
"Yu Fu, think about it, why did I mention this to you tonight?"
Yu Fu looked at her, "Why?"
Yuehu recalled what Gu Huaijiang had told her, and thought that there was no need to hide it from Yufu at this time, so she told her truthfully, "Because Gu Hou told me clearly that there is no room for discussion about rebellion. Even if he Even if he dies, he will never allow the Gu family's army to raise troops. You and I both know in our hearts that the only way out for the Guhou Mansion is to rebel, but this way of life was cut off by Master Gu without hesitation tonight."
She walked behind Yufu, "So you have to leave, because Guhou's mansion is facing a mortal situation, and it's only a matter of time before you are there or not."
The words "mortal situation" slammed hard on Yu Fu's heart, making her almost out of breath.
She has experienced too much these days. Gu Shubai's life and death are uncertain, Gu Jiuge is in prison, and Gu Huaijiang will soon fall into a trap.
She didn't even have time to be sad and worried about Gu Shubai, the mess in front of her had already exhausted her.
This inner torment is more painful than her rushing to Changzhou in the cold winter with the cold wind like a knife, and it is more powerless than her rushing to the border to rescue poisoned soldiers in heavy rain.
She thought for a moment, then raised her head feebly, "I see, elder sister, let me think about it."
Yuehu heard her tone loosen, and hurriedly said: "Okay, but we can't think too long. The situation in the imperial capital is changing, and we can't say what will happen tomorrow. We must make up our minds early."
Yu Fu nodded, and walked towards the bed in a daze, "Give me a night."
Yuehu sighed, turned and left the west chamber.
That night, no lights were turned on in Yufu's room, Aunt Li looked at it from a distance when she got up at night, she felt relieved when she saw it.
What she didn't know was that Yu Fu was lying flat on the Qiangong bed, looking at the crimson ceiling embroidered with flowers and leaves, and never closed his eyes all night.
Many people's faces flashed through her mind uncontrollably, Gu Shubai, Yin Shuo, Ning Chengzhi... The more she thought about it, the more awake she became, without any sleepiness.
Until the dawn of the sky and the silence between heaven and earth, she suddenly got up from the bed.
"It's not a fatal situation, I have a solution, I have thought of a solution!"
She muttered to herself, when she got out of bed to put on her shoes, Yao Lan came in rubbing her eyes, she looked like she had finished dressing and washing.
Yu Fu couldn't help being surprised, Yao Lan yawned and said, "When Eldest Sister left last night, she told me to be vigilant this night, but I didn't dare to take off my clothes. Miss woke up so early, it's not yet dawn! If you want me Are you going to find the elder sister?"
Yu Fu nodded, and put on the clothes on her own, "Go quietly, don't disturb others. Since you are guarding outside, Senior Sister, she must have not slept well all night, and she should be awake at this moment."
"More than just awake? I didn't sleep at all all night."
There was a knock on the window, and a white shadow flashed in front of my eyes. Yuehu yawned exactly like Yaolan, "I've been guarding on your roof all night. I'm afraid you won't be able to think about it. I wanted to leave when you fell asleep." , but you didn't sleep all night, so I had to stay with you all night."
Yu Fu was moved in his heart, knowing that she forced him to leave with no mercy, but what she really cared about was her own safety.
She said: "Master, let's leave Dongling immediately and go to Beili!"
"To Beili?"
Yuehu thought for a while before she understood what she meant, "Gu Hou refused to raise troops, so you went to Beili to bring reinforcements? Don't be kidding, Zong Beili's army is willing to listen to your command. How can there be time for such a long journey?"
"I have my own way. I will discuss it with Elder Sister on the way. The most urgent thing now is to leave the imperial capital, and I can't delay it for a moment. If my prediction is correct, I'm afraid that Ning Chengzhi and Yin Shuo have already secretly arranged staff, and they won't be easily let go." Anyone in Guhou's mansion leaves, especially me."
Yu Fu looked around in the room, and suddenly saw a familiar object, with a long-lost smile on his face, "Yes, this is it!"
…
After daybreak, Lianbi and the others had finished washing and washing, and did not dare to enter the inner room to disturb them.
"Miss came back so late last night, and talked to Immortal Moon Fox Doctor for a long time after she came back, I'm afraid I'm tired. Let's go in later to serve her!"
"What Lian Zhu said makes sense, let's wait a bit, and then go in after the lady calls someone. Hey, where is Yao Lan?"
Several people were talking in the corridor, when they suddenly saw Gu Xiang and Gu Yi striding over, "Has Yu Fu not got up yet? What are you all doing here?"
Lianbi bowed and saluted, "Five young masters and six young masters, the young lady was probably exhausted last night, so we dare not go in and disturb her. Do you have anything to do with the young lady?"
Gu Xiang nodded thoughtfully, "It's because we came too early. There's nothing wrong with it. Bai Wen asked what happened last night. I heard that my third brother was slapped by my father."
The two of them didn't have time to participate in what happened last night, and they couldn't directly ask Gu Hanmo who was beaten, so they simply came to the west wing to ask Yufu for clarification.
Lianbi said: "Yao Lan accompanied Miss to go out, she must know the situation. But it's strange, we didn't see Yao Lan when we woke up this morning."
Gu Yi was surprised and said: "Didn't you see Yao Lan? This girl loves to sleep in late, where can she go?"
The more Gu Xiang heard it, the more he felt that something was wrong, he ignored the others, and walked straight to Yufu's inner room, opened the door and saw that the outer bed was empty.
Yao Lan was supposed to sleep in this place, but the quilt was cold, so it can be seen that she left long ago.
Lianzhu hurriedly went into the inner room, and yelled in fright, "It's bad, there's no one on Miss's bed! Where did Miss go?"
Only then did everyone realize that it was not good, Gu Xiang said: "Don't be too busy, you can look around the mansion, like the yard or garden of the eldest brother. Send someone to inform the third and fourth brothers, let them come together Send someone to find Yu Fu and Yao Lan, don't disturb the upper house!"
Gu Huaijiang is recuperating from illness and cannot bear any disturbance at this moment.
Lianzhu, Lianbi and others hurriedly bowed and retreated, and went to various places to look for the traces of Yufu's master and servant. Gu Hanmo and Gu Wenqing were alarmed, and everyone gathered in the west chamber to wait for an answer.
The servants of the mansion searched everywhere, it would be better if they didn't find it, but when they searched, they found that even the moon fox was gone.
Qi Zhou said: "Third Young Master, there is no one in the yard of Immortal Moon Fox Doctor, did she leave with Miss?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Gu Yi was the first to object to his words, "Xiao Yufu is not such a disrespectful person, even if her father and third brother told her to leave, she refused to leave, how could she sneak away?!"
Qi Zhou said awkwardly: "Sixth son, don't worry, I didn't mean that, maybe the lady has other reasons." He suddenly thought of something, and said to Lianzhu and Lianbi: "Have you checked the lady's room, is there any What's missing?"
After all, he was the steward of the mansion for many years, and his words awakened the dreamer.
Gu Xiang hurriedly said: "Yes! Go and see if the luggage and items in the house are still there, don't you know if Yu Fu has left?"
Lianzhu, Lianbi and others immediately went back to the inner room to check, and came out quickly, "The money and jewelry in the room are not touched, only a few pieces of Miss's personal clothes, and the treasure box is gone!"
Everyone's hearts suddenly sank to the bottom.
Yufu took away her clothes and treasure box, which proved that she was prepared to leave, not being hijacked or just going out for a walk.
She really left, together with Yuehu and Yaolan, they disappeared completely.
Qi Zhou regretted so much that he wished he could slap himself, he was such a crow's mouth, and his words became a prophecy!
Gu Wenqing hurriedly said: "Yufu must have some difficulties, she will never leave everyone alone! She must just be inconvenient to tell us, just like that time when she secretly went to the border to treat the poisoned soldiers!"
"Yes, it must be so!"
Yufu has been in Guhou's Mansion for many years, and they have watched her grow up. Everyone knows her character well, and she is by no means a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
Gu Hanmo looked at the distant sky, the sky was bright, and the sun was dazzling through the clouds, "It's fine if she's gone. On the contrary, I hope that Yufu really leaves and doesn't come back."
Everyone understood the meaning of his love for Yufu in his words, and when they were about to say something, they suddenly saw Yinling running out of the inner room. thing.
"It turns out that the miss not only took away the clothes and the treasure box, she also took away one thing!"
