He was thinking about where to start to investigate the cause of Shi Guangyao's death, when a knife blade was inserted through the crack of the door, and he gently pulled the latch.
The door latch was pushed open familiarly, but the person who came in was not wearing night clothes, but a clean white dress, which was very conspicuous in the night.
The man closed the door gently, latched it, and turned around, but was stunned.
"Are you awake?"
Gu She looked at the face that was very similar to Tao Mo. The two big round eyes were black and bright, and there were two dimples on the fair face. She looked like a young and innocent girl. Who would have thought of her Will do things like breaking into the bedroom of a strange man at night.
"Did grandpa call you here?"
The girl was a little shy, but still a little excited: "Well! The general asked me to serve you."
"Think I'm asleep and bring a knife to pry open the door to serve?"
The girl blushed: "If you are awake, the general is afraid that you will not want me. He told me to take off your clothes and get into your arms while you were asleep."
"What do you think I'll do to you if you do that?"
The girl was confident: "You don't have to do anything, the general gave me medicine, and I will sit on it myself. The general sent me to the brothel to learn. The general said that as long as I have children, I will not worry about it for the rest of my life! The general also said It would be even better if it was a boy!"
She was so excited that she called the conspiracy a public conspiracy, but she didn't notice that Gu She's indifferent face suddenly became terrified.
"roll!"
A jade pillow flew towards her, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly hid aside, the pillow hit the screen, and the screen collapsed.
She seemed to realize that she had talked too much. Seeing that the screen had blocked the door, she hurriedly opened the window and jumped out to run.
Gu She also jumped up hastily, rushed to the screen, saw that Tao Mo's portrait was still in good condition, thankfully took it off carefully, and looked at it carefully.
Tears filled my eyes in an instant.
That's right, he should have thought about it a long time ago: Although grandpa is open-minded, he values his children very much. He can accept Tao Mo, but he can't accept that he only has Tao Mo.
The door was knocked, and General Lian's deep voice came: "She'er."
Gu She didn't open the door: "If Grandpa comes to see off the beauties, he can go back."
General Lian was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Whether you want a beauty or not, it's always okay to have a few words with Grandpa?"
Gu She carefully rolled up Tao Mo's portrait, lifted the quilt, put it on the bed and covered it, then came to hold up the screen, and opened the door.
General Lian strode in and sat down at the table.
Gu She took a coat and draped it over her body, and sat on the edge of the bed.
General Lian knocked on the table: "Come and sit here."
Gu She shook his head.
After a long time, General Lian let out a long sigh: "Who am I for?"
"It's definitely not for me anyway."
General Lian roared, "It's not for you, but for whom?"
Gu She cast her cold gaze on his face: "For me, I won't do such a thing that disgusts me and makes Wuwen sad."
General Lian's arrogance disappeared in an instant: "Don't you just like that kind of girl? I picked that girl according to your preferences."
"Grandpa, who am I?"
General Lian was puzzled: "You are my good grandson Gu She."
"Yes, I'm not a stud stallion."
Even the general choked.
After a long time, Gu She asked softly, "You didn't do anything in the Wuwen room, did you?"
"No.—It's just, what do you do when you get old?"
"Wu Wen likes children, and I will adopt one or two in a few years."
"Adopted ones are not kissed after all."
"My mother was born to you, and I was born to Gu Huankun."
General Lian was stunned.
At dawn, Hao Guozi urged Tao Mo to get up.
Tao Mo hugged the quilt and just slept.
Hao Guozi complained: "Master! Even the general has been punching for a long time! Mr. Gu is also up, waiting for you."
"Ah?" Tao Mo woke up instantly.
He threw off the quilt and jumped out of bed. Hao Guozi was busy dressing him.
He opened his arms and was asking Hao Guozi to tie his belt when the door was pushed open and Gu She came in from outside the screen.
"Don't! Don't! I'm not dressed yet!"
Gu She said indifferently: "During the days when I was injured, you and I were in the same room, and every morning when I got up early, I saw you looking unkempt in your middle clothes, why did you become twitchy at this time?"
"That's—that's right, I forgot."
Tao Mo was immediately relieved, seeing that Hao Guozi had tied it up for him, he rushed to the washbasin stand and began to wash.
Seeing that his hair had fallen into the washbasin, Gu She hurried up to hold it for him.
Holding it in his hand, he felt that Tao Mo's hair was slippery and soft, so he couldn't help sniffing it at the end of his nose.
Seeing this, Hao Guozi ran out and said, "I'm going to prepare with Brother Jia."
Tao Mo washed up and sat down to comb his hair, but he couldn't do it well. The full head of hair looks smooth, but he just can't get it together.
Seeing this, Gu She said, "Let me comb it for you."
He never asked Gu Xiaojia to serve him personally, and he always dressed, combed and showered by himself, so he combed it quickly and well, and soon put Tao Mo's hair crown on.
Tao Mo looked at the mirror: "Huh? Why did you comb all your hair up?"
It was only then that Gu She remembered that she combed all her hair up after reaching the crown. In the past two years, I have been used to combing like this for myself, and I forgot for a moment, and I did the same for Tao Mo.
Before he could speak, Tao Mo said again: "It's okay, anyway, I'm going to hold the crowning ceremony soon. In some places, no matter what the birthday is, they all hold the crowning ceremony on the third day of the third month of that year. It’s time for the crown ceremony to pass.”
Gu She smiled from the bottom of his heart, his dance writing always makes people so comfortable.
He lowered his head and gently kissed Tao Mo's ear.
After breakfast, General Lian ordered someone to accompany Gu Shetao Mo to the streets.
Gu She asked Gu Xiaojia to drive the car to the sub-rudder of the Devil's Cult, went in and chatted with the master Lu rudder, and delivered Mu Chun's letter.
Chief Lu Duo asked Gu She how to find out the cause of Shi Guangyao's death
Gu She said: "Take Shi Qianshan with you first, and walk the road you walked back then."
Back to Zuixiang Building, the signboard has been changed.
Tao Mo looked at the building until the carriage turned around and could no longer be seen.
He lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.
Gu She reached out his hand and held his hand tightly.
The carriage went south along Suzaku Street, and when it arrived in front of Suzaku Gate, it was about to turn right into Tianshuijing Alley, when Suzaku Gate suddenly made a heavy sound, the suspension bridge was closed, and the gate was closed!
The guards sent by the General's Mansion to accompany them rode on horses, and said to themselves in surprise: "It's broad daylight, what are you doing closing the door?"
Gu She said coldly: "Turn around! Go!"
Although Gu Xiaojia didn't understand what it meant, but it became a habit to obey Gu She, so he immediately turned his horse's head and ran wildly!
As soon as the horse took a few steps, the sound of dense footsteps came from behind. The guard looked back, his face changed drastically: "The defenders of the Suzaku Gate have mutinied!"
"Who is the leader of the defenders of Suzaku Gate?"
Before the guard could answer, Shi Qianshan had already said, "Ye Qing, the confidant of the Nine Kings."
Gu She narrowed his eyes: "He finally couldn't help it."
Shi Qianshan shouted: "Gu Xianzhi! What do you mean?!"
Gu She said lightly: "Give a person too much power without supervision, and this person will always dream of maximum power."
Shi Qianshan said in disbelief, "You mean—the Nine Kings rebelled?"
Gu She glanced at him: "That's what you said."
Shi Qianshan's face was ashen: "No, what you said is very possible."
Tao Mo lifted the curtain of the car to look outside, only to see that the defenders of the Vermilion Bird Gate behind him did not catch up. But when he looked forward, his expression changed immediately: "Brother Jia, do you think the imperial city is on fire?"
The guard replied: "The imperial city is on fire, but the imperial city is in the north and the General's Mansion is in the east. We are not afraid."
Tao Mo was stunned: "I don't know what will happen if the imperial city catches fire?"
Gu She said coldly: "Either the emperor dies and the nine kings ascend the throne; or the emperor keeps the throne and the nine kings die. It has nothing to do with us."
The guard also said: "Our company's army is a naval force. Today, Shi Taiwei and King Lingyang are good at cavalry and formation. No matter who sits on the throne, we have to use our company army!"
"But—" Tao Mo hesitated, "If someone doesn't want to change the emperor, wouldn't there be a war? How many people will die?"
Gu She let out a long sigh: "The lives of the people have always been ants. Wu Wen, you can't control it."
After Tao Mo heard these words, tears flowed down his face: "It's not just the lives of the people who are ants?! Even the elder brother is the son of the general's mansion, how noble is he in ordinary times?! In the face of the safety of the throne, he will be unjustly killed by his own father In the eyes of the emperor, even the eldest brother is nothing more than an ant, but to you and me, he is the closest relative! He has been dead for almost four years, have you let go? Have I let go?"
Gu She's throat was choked, and the pain made him almost unable to speak. Looking at Tao Mo who was crying so hard, he suddenly hugged Tao Mo into his arms, and said hoarsely, "I know."
When Gu She got on the horse, Tao Mo rushed over and grabbed his hand: "Xianzhi! I want to go too!"
Gu She said softly, "You have never practiced martial arts, so you won't be able to help if you go, and you need me to take care of you."
"I want to be with you!"
Gu She smiled: "Are you afraid that I won't come back? No way. There are so many people protecting me! Besides, I'm not going to lead troops to fight, I want to outwit."
Following behind him were the guards of the General's Mansion, as well as the congregants of the Demon Sect's capital branch.
Tao Mo didn't care: "I just want to be with you. You haven't practiced martial arts, so I just need to stay by your side."
General Lian became impatient: "I said She'er, when did you become so wordy? Go away!"
Gu She glanced at Lao Tao, who came over and pulled Tao Mo away.
"String of..."
Tears filled Tao Mo's eyes instantly.
Gu She took a deep look at Tao Mo, then turned his head and galloped away.
Tao Mo was left, looking at his back with tears in his eyes, until he could no longer see him, then squatted down, buried his head on his knees, and began to cry.
Lao Tao said helplessly, "Young master, you are the one who takes care of this nosy business, and now you are the one who is worried about Mr. Gu's safety, what are you going to do?"
Tao Mo raised his head: "I hate why I'm so incompetent? If you can't do it, you can't do it. You can't do anything! It's obviously what I want to do, but I let Xianzhi take risks!"
"That doesn't make much difference." Old Tao shook his head, "If you have troubles, Mr. Gu will not be happy for the rest of his life."
Hao Guozi interjected, "Master, you have to think of the best, don't curse Mr. Gu in the open sky, it's not auspicious."
"Oh." After listening to Hao Guozi's words, Tao Mo hastily wiped away his tears and forced a smile.
It's just that laughing is uglier than crying.
