By the time Jing Yan and Gu Qiancheng arrived, it was already afternoon. Yan Qing and Gu Chenghuan waited from morning till night, but no one showed up. From the initial nervousness and anticipation, they gradually became desperate.
Jing Yan arranged for Gu Qiancheng to live in a small mountain village near the Northwest Camp. It would take more than four hours to walk to the Northwest Camp.
Knowing that Jing Yan had made up his mind and had to raise an army, if Gu Qiancheng didn't persuade him, no matter what Jing Yan said, she would just remain silent.
And this was something Gu Qiancheng couldn't accept. If she had to bear the infamy of being the most powerful person in the country until the end, and mother and son would have to be controlled by Jing Yan, she would rather make plans early and hold the power in her own hands.
"You're right, I'm very selfish, and I never deny it." Gu Qiancheng deserved to be happy, without a trace of embarrassment or embarrassment, "But you and I are different. You are a man and I am a woman. . This is a world where men are supreme. All rights are in the hands of you men. You men are the masters of this world. You enjoy supreme rights and naturally bear corresponding responsibilities. And we women can only rely on you. Live, you didn’t give me the right to rule the world, so why do you ask me to sacrifice for the world?”
Unfortunately, her cooperation did not make Jing Yan lower his guard. Instead, he warned her repeatedly, "Qiancheng, you better cooperate better tomorrow, otherwise... I don't know what I will do."
She admitted that she was selfish and held herself and Jing Yan to different standards. But she has never been a person with great love. If she really had great love, she would not be alive today, and she would not be able to enjoy the wealth brought by her birth.
Instead of waiting for Jing Yan to use her name to subvert the Qin Dynasty, it would be better for her to seize Qin Jiyan's power, destroy Qin Jiyan's path to the throne, and help her own son ascend to the throne.
"No need, power means nothing to the Gu family." In the past few years, because of the Holy Master's favor, he and Chengyi had been promoted step by step, moving much faster than their peers, which also attracted the jealousy of many people.
Jing Yan has forced her to this point, she has no way out, and war will inevitably break out. If she refuses to face it, the final result will most likely be that Jing Yan destroys the country of Qin and Yinuo makes her son the emperor, but the power is in Jing Yan's hands, and she and her son are just puppets in Jing Yan's hands. .
Even if you can keep it, you can't keep your current position.
"Sure enough, it's a scam. It seems that many people are watching over the Gu family and things are not going well." Seeing the sunset and still no news, Gu Chenghuan didn't want to wait any longer.
"I said, there is no turning back when you draw a bow. I can't, and neither can you. The deaths of Qiancheng and 150,000 soldiers have destroyed the last warmth in my heart. If you dare to play tricks, I will destroy the flame fruit. Then I'll drag you to death together." He said everything that should be said and shouldn't be said, and Jing Yan didn't have any concerns.
Seeing that Gu Qiancheng was in good spirits, Jing Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Did you sleep well last night?"
It's not a scam, it's real, it's real...
Everyone has their own position, their own ideas, and the people and things they care about. Gu Qiancheng wanted to say that Jing Yan was wrong!
After tonight, she and Jing Yan are strangers, and they will never go back to the beginning.
The words came to my lips, but they couldn't come out.
"Don't worry, I will sleep well." Gu Qiancheng stood up to see off the guests, looking directly at Jing Yan with his cold eyes, as if looking at a stranger.
Jing Yan was right. There is no turning back when you shoot a bow. Since you can't turn back, don't look back.
It just so happened that she also wanted to ask Qin Jiyan why he made Ni Yue his queen
There are many things in the world that cannot be done both ways. She has been escaping before, agreeing to Jing Yan's request, but she has been rejecting it in her heart, hoping that what Jing Yan wants to do will not succeed. However, this kind of weak behavior that she dared not face was of no use except giving her short-term comfort.
"No, go back early..." Gu Chenghuan stood up, but midway through his words, he heard the ordering soldier shouting urgently outside: "General, General, Gu... Miss Gu is asking to see you. It's Miss Gu Qiancheng, the living Gu girl!"
"Of course." No longer in a dilemma, no longer vacillating, no longer thinking about having both sides, how could she not sleep well.
"Don't worry, I know what to do." Since you can't look back, just go to the end in total darkness.
Many of Yan Qing's soldiers had met Gu Qiancheng and recognized him.
After figuring it out, Gu Qiancheng had a good night's sleep and got up before dawn the next day without anyone calling him.
"Perhaps, this is the best way." No matter what, she could not let Jing Yan hold the power and dictate her life again.
"I can't understand what you are saying. Whoever has the power will bear the responsibility. I only know that you and I are the same people, the same selfish, the same only think about themselves." Jing Yan stood up and spoke condescendingly to Gu Qiancheng Said: "We will leave at dawn tomorrow. Go to bed early, if you can sleep."
"Heh..." Jing Yan sneered, "Qiancheng, you said I'm selfish, but you're not selfish. You said I made people miserable for my selfish desires, but what about yourself? Didn't you also agree to this for the sake of your and your son's life? My conditions?”
Everything has a cause and effect. In the final analysis, this incident was caused by Qin Jiyan's great-grandfather seizing the throne and killing people. His grandfather slaughtered the village and wiped out the family, but he did not do it thoroughly enough.
But Qin Jiyan chose the simplest but most hurtful method.
"After you go back, explain it carefully to the emperor. The emperor will definitely understand." Yan Qing was also filled with disappointment, but at the same time, he was also worried about Gu Chenghuan.
"What?" Yan Qing and Cheng Huan, who had given up hope, were stunned and motionless after hearing this sentence. Cheng Huan fell to the ground in excitement.
Putting aside the heavy burden and guilt in his heart, Gu Qiancheng regained his former energy and got into the carriage without even looking at Jing Yan.
Qin Ji said it didn't matter if he didn't make her his queen, she could just be the queen mother.
If Jing Yan hadn't flooded Jiangnan, killed millions of innocent people, and brought 150,000 soldiers from Jiangnan, how could Qin Jiyan have demoted their family members into slaves, but...
Fortunately for him, the other party made an appointment with him in the northwest, and he was in the northwest. He was just disappointed that the other party didn't come to his door. But Cheng Huan is different. Cheng Huan ignored the imperial edict and left the capital privately. If he was targeted and prosecuted, even the Holy Emperor would not be able to protect him.
Mutiny is a lonely road. Once you go forward, you can never look back.
"I can't stop your plan if I don't cooperate, can I?" Jing Yan has already raised an army in her name, and she has been with Jing Yan during this time. After the incident, no matter how she explains it, the world will think that she Lying.
After Jing Yan left, Gu Qiancheng did not sleep. Instead, he sat on a chair and carefully thought about the way forward and his next plans.
Yan Qing didn't try to persuade him anymore, but just patted him on the shoulder and said, "Have a rest for the night and leave tomorrow."
Based on Qin Jiyan's methods, he should have thousands of ways to make Ni Yue willing to be her son's medicine man without making her his queen.
It's better to keep your rights in your own hands.
