[19]
Gu Hongjian disappeared for a whole year.
Lin Size has been looking for Gu Hongjian for nearly a year.
At first, Lin Size didn't expect Gu Hongjian to disappear for so long and disappear so completely, so he was not too impatient when he sent people to look for it.
And after half a month, let alone find her, there is no news of her at all.
Lin Size was more attentive at this point. He dispatched more staff and began to search carefully in the capital. All the inns were searched one by one, and all the houses with new owners were also searched one by one, but there was still no news of Gu Hongjian.
In this way, another two or three months passed, and Lin Size was completely bad.
She has to go out anyway, right? Want to buy something? !
Then stare non-stop in a lively or deserted market!
Since you can't find it in the capital, go to the small villages around the capital to search for it!
Lin Size had to dig out Gu Hongjian three feet in the ground, but Gu Hongjian really didn't need to show up. Probably she could avoid staying in the capital, and even if she stayed in the capital, she probably wouldn't go out at all.
All in all, Lin Size couldn't find her.
From the initial disbelief, to the anger afterward, to the worry afterward—in the end, Lin Size even wondered if Gu Hongjian had encountered something unexpected.
However, in April of the first year of Pingchang, when Gu Hongjian was about to disappear for half a year, Lin Size was already preparing to issue a wanted notice, and at this time, Jiang Haifu actually received something.
This matter is more complicated. The maids in the palace will occasionally make some handicrafts by themselves and sell them outside the palace, and then take money from the eunuchs who brought them out of the palace for them, and those that are not sold will be thrown back to the maids.
One of them, a little palace maid who was acquainted with Jiang Haifu, received a handkerchief that no one wanted, but found that a line of characters was embroidered on the handkerchief.
Jiang Haifu, tell him I'm fine, see you soon, don't read.
The little palace maid was taken aback, and after hesitating for a long time, she decided to tell Jiang Haifu about it.
Lin Size glanced at the handkerchief, threw the handkerchief with a dark face, and withdrew all those who were searching for Gu Hongjian.
Jiang Haifu silently put away the handkerchief for him.
After that, Lin Size was not so keen on looking for Gu Hongjian. After all, he had only been on the throne for a year, and he was very busy. Knowing that Gu Hongjian just didn't want to appear, he didn't force her anymore.
Pyeongchang quickly entered the first imperial examination after Lin Size's ascension to the throne. Regardless of the papers and martial arts, it was extremely important to Lin Size. After all, the court and the middle are all old ministers left behind. Although they are used well, it is difficult to cultivate confidants. , Lin Size was suspicious by nature. Gu Hong was the only one of his confidants, but now he ran away. Of course, he was very interested in this civil and military examination.
When it was time for the exam, Lin Size took the time to read the first grade exam papers, and was very impressed with one of them, Zhao Yunyuan, and the other person also impressed him - as soon as he saw that person's words, he paused. , feels very familiar.
This is a completely enhanced version of Gu Hongjian's words.
The same style of writing, but it seems to be much calmer and smoother than before, with a hint of a master style.
Lin Size pondered for a moment, glanced at the person's name, but saw the word "Gu Hong" upright.
Lin Size: "..."
Ridiculous...!
Simply ridiculous.
Lin Size immediately sent someone to look for that "Gu Hong", whose name was so obvious, Gu Hong saw that she didn't even think about hiding anything!
Gu Hongjian came honestly, wearing a cyan man's robe, all his hair combed, and tied with a green silk ribbon, he actually had the feeling of being a young boy and suave.
Lin Size had not seen Gu Hongjian again for nearly a year. Although he was quite worried about it, he would not show it, and only looked at her with a sullen face.
Gu Hong raised her eyebrows and smiled, and slowly saluted: "Long live the emperor."
Lin Size said helplessly, "Sit by yourself."
Gu Hongjian immediately sat down and cocked his legs, "Thank you, Your Majesty~"
Lin Size said, "You are really making a fool of yourself."
"What's wrong?" Gu Hong saw an innocent face, "The emperor asked me to sit."
"Gu Hongjian!" Lin Size said angrily.
Gu Hongjian laughed, and then said more innocently: "Your Majesty, Caomin doesn't know where to offend you, why do you call me 'cheap'
Lin Size was stunned for a moment, then remembered that the person in front of him was now under the pseudonym "Gu Hong", and he called her Gu Hongjian then...
"Why did you suddenly leave that day?" Lin Size asked straight to the point, too lazy to dwell on such a boring question with her.
Gu Hongjian smiled slightly, and then said: "If I don't run away at that time, I'm afraid I'll still have to live under the emperor's control and surveillance this year."
Lin Size said with a cold face, "I... I didn't want to control and monitor you."
Seeing this, Gu Hong said innocently: "Even if it's not. But it's not a solution to go on like that. In your opinion, won't I return to the harem to be my head Gu? Eh, don't say no. If not, what is that? Enter the palace, be your concubine? Then watch you expand the harem, compete with others for favor, and when you are unhappy, kill all your concubines one by one, and then be hated by you and run away ...?"
"… "
Lin Size looked at Gu Hongjian, dumbfounded, "What the hell are you thinking about?"
Gu Hongjian shrugged: "Anyway, it's roughly the same routine."
She knows Lin Size, and Lin Size also understands her. Although what she said is a bit exaggerated, she will indeed follow this route.
Thinking of being entangled with Lin Size in this way, Gu Hongjian felt that life was very hopeless, so she simply walked away.
Lin Size looked at Gu Hongjian and said, "So you don't think you need to stay by my side? If that's the case, why are you taking the imperial examinations again? Gu Hong... hehe."
Gu Hongjian glanced at him, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he looked like a ruffian: "I never said I would leave you, I just wanted to get closer to you in another way."
Lin Size's eyes sank, and then he said, "Then, as you wish."
***
On the day of the palace test, Gu Hong saw men's clothes appear. She had practiced martial arts since she was a child.
On that day, in the palace exam, there was the first "double champion" since the founding of the dynasty. Someone raised objections and was dismissed by Lin Size's words "No first place in writing".
This is naturally due to Lin Size's selfishness. After all, he wants to give the best to Gu Hongjian, and Gu Hongjian has indeed grown a lot these days. His answers are eloquent and his words are sharp, but Zhao Yunyuan is definitely worthy of the top spot. Lin Size This decision was made with little hesitation.
However, in the eyes of everyone, Gu Hongjian was not as good as Zhao Yunyuan, but at that time, no one thought that Gu Hongjian had anything to do with Lin Size earlier, so they only thought that Gu Hongjian's concept was exactly the same as that of Lin Size. Lin Size loved it very much.
Gu Hongjian didn't expect Lin Size to do this, she was slightly surprised, then turned her head to look at Zhao Yunyuan next to her.
However, he saw that he was still bowing his head, his face was calm, and there was no trace of unwillingness.
Gu Hongjian's heart moved slightly. After the two were led away, Gu Hongjian deliberately handed over to Zhao Yunyuan and said, "It's an extremely surprising result, I know that my talent is not as good as yours, this position of champion is really... let me Shame."
Although her tone was Chen Chen, it didn't seem like she was completely sincere to express her apology. If Zhao Yunyuan was a little unhappy, he would be easily provoked.
But Zhao Yunyuan just shook his head and said: "In the future, we will join the court together as an official and serve the emperor. The champion is just a false name. Besides, Brother Gu doesn't need to belittle himself."
Gu Hong smiled and thought that Zhao Yunyuan was really an honest scholar, so he said again: "Speaking of which, I don't know how Brother Zhao thinks about women being an official?"
Zhao Yunyuan was taken aback and said, "Women are officials? Do you mean, women officials?"
"It's not a female official in the harem, but an upright female official who stands in the front court and can play and discuss politics."
Zhao Yunyuan frowned: "Women are not allowed to be officials."
"It's not written like this in the law." Gu Hongjian laughed.
"But there has never been a precedent." Zhao Yunyuan said.
Gu Hong smiled and said nothing more.
But Zhao Yunyuan suddenly reacted at this moment, looked at Gu Hongjian with a shocked expression, and said, "Brother Gu..."
Gu Hongjian hooked the corner of his mouth: "What?"
"Brother Gu is a woman?!" Zhao Yunyuan gasped.
Gu Hong laughed even more happily.
She became an official in the court, and one day everyone will find out that she is a woman. It is better to be open and honest than to hide.
On the contrary, Zhao Yunyuan's reaction was exactly the same as that of the old-fashioned people who knew she was a woman as she imagined.
Zhao Yunyuan stretched out his hand to pull her, and said solemnly, "Brother Gu... No, Gu... Gu Hong, this is the crime of deceiving the king. If you go back and tell the emperor now, you may be able to save your life. If it is discovered in the future, it will be necessary to Punish the sins of the Nine Clan."
Gu Hong said: "But it's not fair. Didn't you just say that, my strength is not bad, even if I'm not good enough to compare with you, I can always enter the top one, if it's a man, I can enter the Hanlin Yes. Just because I'm a woman, I can't be an official in the court?"
Probably Gu Hongjian's words challenged his traditional thinking, Zhao Yunyuan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "In any case, you should tell the emperor first. As for your stay, it should be left to the emperor to decide."
Gu Hong said: "Oh? What does Brother Zhao mean, if the emperor says I can stay, then Brother Zhao will support me to enter the dynasty and continue to be an official?"
Zhao Yunyuan: "This..."
"If I am attacked by other officials because of my status as a woman in the future, I think Brother Zhao will also be on my side, right?" Gu Hong said.
Zhao Yunyuan: "Ah...?"
Gu Hongjian completely ignored his shock, pulled out his hand, and patted his shoulder: "Brother Zhao, I will feel at ease. Thank you. Don't worry, the emperor already knew that I was a woman."
After that, he turned and left with a smile, leaving only Zhao Yunyuan, who had not recovered.
And at the Qionglin Banquet, as expected, Gu Hongjian announced that she was a woman without discussing it with Lin Size, and the whole audience was shocked.
Lin Size's face was as black as carbon, but she calmly explained to Gu Hongjian, saying that she knew that Gu Hongjian was a woman, but she felt that she was talented and should not obliterate her existence just because she was a woman, so she decided to make an exception. The first former female official.
Everyone was shocked, only Zhao Yunyuan was silent.
The surname of the servant at that time, Fan, was also left over from the previous dynasty. Because the late emperor believed in gods, he needed someone to write the green words of Datian Ting, and this servant of Fan had such ability, so although his actual ability was not strong , but was quite favored by the emperor and became a servant.
And he was able to sit firmly in the position of the waiter because he had a good relationship with Yao Taishi back then.
But he was lucky. When Yao Taishi and the prince rebelled, they didn't notify him, probably because he disliked him because he was just writing a poem, and it would be easy to tell him bad things.
He didn't participate, so he didn't get hurt. He just kept silent for a while, but as Taishi Yao's power was uprooted, Lin Size also didn't believe in gods and Buddhas. Although he still kept his position as a servant, he was completely unable to do so. Lin Size has very little trust and power, and is extremely dissatisfied with Lin Size.
But although this Fan Shilang is stupid, he is not stupid enough to dare to say that Lin Size is not. Moreover, since Lin Size became the throne, he has been diligent and diligent, and there is nothing to blame.
But Gu Hong saw this, but let Shi Lang find an opportunity. He immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, no!"
Lin Size was originally unhappy because Gu Hongjian announced that he was a woman without authorization, but when the servant-law Fan bumped into him, he immediately said with a dark face, "Why not?"
"Your Majesty, you also said that you made an exception for her, and the previous double champion also made an exception for her. How can you make an exception for her again and again?!" Fan Shilang said.
Gu Hongjian was happy, and she liked hearing those words.
So she knelt down beside Fan Shilang and said, "Your Majesty, Fan Shilang is right. How can I be, let the emperor make exceptions for me again and again. However, I am not reconciled to let me leave now. , Fan Shilang, you give me a month, I will behave well, if I can make a difference and satisfy the people in the court, I will continue to be my female official. If not, I will naturally pack up and leave. , it's better not to embarrass the emperor, what do you think?"
Gu Hongjian said so, Fan Shilang could only hesitate for a moment before agreeing.
He thought, after all, when Gu Hong saw that he had just entered the official position, he could only enter the Hanlin Academy. As a civil official with no real power, all he could do was to transcribe books. What great things could he do
Even if the emperor is partial, she is afraid that she will not be able to do anything convincing.
However, Fan Shilang never imagined that it had only been 20 days since Gu Hongjian officially entered office. One day early in the morning, Gu Hongjian handed over the first book in his life. He Fan Shilang's sin.
And it is a memorial to the court.
The late emperor was not in charge of affairs, especially when the crown prince took power after he was seriously ill. As a ***, Fan Shilang accepted a lot of bribes on weekdays, but it was a very common thing for him. Are people in the current dynasty not greedy? What's more, he is a dignified servant
However, on Gu Hongjian's booklet, he clearly stated the origin of all the unclean property in his home, and in some relatively large projects, the person who paid the bribe was also marked.
There are several relatives in Fan Shilang's hometown. Relying on him as a waiter, he is doing a good job in the countryside. Fan Shilang knows it, but he doesn't want to care about it. Occasionally, he will notify the county magistrate of his hometown and let him help his family. He is a relative of Tuba. He once heard that his nephew killed someone. He didn't think much about it. He took some money and asked him to take it back to his hometown for compensation. He also mentioned it to the county magistrate. Well, he didn't take it to heart.
However, in Gu Hongjian's account, this matter was brought up with emphasis. It turned out that the matter was not so simple at that time. His nephew forcibly molested a girl in the village, and the girl hanged herself that day. The elder brother came to him to explain, but was killed by the nephew of Fan Shilang who was drunk by the wrong hand.
The old parents of the brother and sister cried and fainted, but they were powerless and in poor health.
And the money that Fan Shilang sent to his hometown to send the second old man naturally went into the nephew's purse instead.
Such a tragic incident happened quietly and was silently suppressed. Although it happened during the reign of the previous emperor, it was also extremely shocking. Lin Size's face was darker than carbon, and Fan Shilang became more and more frightened as he listened to it. When he heard that the second old man had died tragically in prison, he immediately knelt on top of the court.
In addition, there are countless other deeds to list. Gu Hong sees that she is full of energy. Although her voice is not loud, her voice is cadenced and resonating throughout the entire court.
None of the civil and military officials interjected. Fan Shilang knelt on the ground, his lips were white and almost fainted. After Gu Hongjian finished reading, he immediately kowtowed like a garlic clover, and said, "Your Majesty, listen to Wei Chen's explanation, this..."
"Fan Shilang, don't be in a hurry to explain, I know that the emperor is very busy with daily affairs, and Fan Shilang is an important minister. If there is no evidence, the emperor will send someone to verify it, which is very embarrassing. Therefore, in order to share the emperor's worries and solve the problem, I have already You brought that nephew from your hometown and several other relatives who did evil to the capital. And... I asked some things and got some letters from the family. Here, there is the most important thing, which is also the last one of Fan Shilang's charges. "
Lin Size said lightly, "Bring it up."
Fan Shilang's eyes widened, and he was a little overwhelmed when he saw Jiang Haifu next to Lin Size go down and take a few letters from Gu Hongjian's hand.
"The courtroom has been unpredictable recently, and I've been extremely busy. I hope you all stay calm and don't cause trouble. When that person takes office, I will immediately bring you to the capital or nearby to serve as your petty officials."
Gu Hongjian stood with his hands behind his back, reciting the contents of the book.
The corners of Fan Shilang's mouth twitched, he looked up at Lin Size and said, "This, this... Wei Chen wants to use power for personal gain, it's really not right..."
"No, you're wrong, Shi-Lang Fan." Gu Hong smiled when he saw it, "I don't mean to say that you use power for personal gain. This last sin of yours is—attempting rebellion."
Fan Shilang's eyes widened: "What?!"
[20]
Lin Size raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Gu Hongjian, as if she already knew what she was going to say, but she didn't answer, just let her continue.
"The time of sending this letter happened to be a month before the rebellion of Yao Bing, the rebel, and when you said 'that', you obviously did not mean the emperor, because since the emperor ascended the throne, you have not brought any of your family members. The meaning of the capital. So it's obvious who 'that' refers to. At that time, the emperor was still in power, and the crown prince was still undecided, but you were so sure that you already knew what was going to happen. Therefore, you and Yao Bing were basically one and the same. Dude!" Gu Hongjian came to a conclusion in Shen Sheng, "The intention of treason is obvious!"
Fan Shilang stammered to refute, but found that he couldn't refute!
He could only continue to kowtow until his forehead bleeds, but what he got in return was just a faint sentence from Lin Size, "Come on, get him down."
Later, Fan Shilang was executed by the nine clans for the crime of treason.
Gu Hongjian even gained a firm foothold in the DPRK because of this wonderful impeachment.
Fan Shilang was the first to propose that she was not allowed to be an official, and he ended up being punished by the Nine Clan.
The impeachment showed Gu Hongjian's skill, and the emperor secretly helped. No one was completely innocent, and no one wanted to take this risk.
But it is completely innocent, in fact there is still Zhao Yunyuan.
But Zhao Yunyuan only asked Gu Hongjian suspiciously when he had a chance in private, how did he know that Fan Shilang had committed so many crimes.
Gu Hong didn't hide it, he smiled and said: "He is the one who wrote the green poem, and he relies on Yao Bing, so naturally he won't be a good person. If you check a little, you can find out something. As for that letter The key family letter... Oh, actually, that family book was written quite a long time ago, he must have nothing to do with the forced palace, but it was easy to use, so I used it."
Zhao Yunyuan was shocked by the word "easy to use" and said, "How... how can this be so?!"
Gu Hong said: "What's wrong? If the roots are not cut off, the spring breeze will blow again."
"You..." Zhao Yunyuan couldn't believe it, "I impeached Fan Shilang because of his viciousness. No matter what, you can't commit any wrongdoing. The reason is... not eradicating the grass?!"
Gu Hongjian blinked and said, "Anyway, he's not a good thing, and his family members are not a good thing either... That's it."
"There are indeed many evil people in his family, but how innocent are the girls and children who were implicated together!" Zhao Yunyuan frowned and said angrily.
At this time, Zhao Yunyuan had entered the Hanlin Academy, Gu Hong smiled and said: "Zhao Hanlin really only read the books of the sages with all his heart, and he was upright and kind. However, has Zhao Hanlin ever thought about the family being killed by Fan Shilang's nephew? Who is not innocent? There are countless ordinary people who have been bullied by the powerful, who is not innocent? Zhao Hanlin has always heard this sentence, right? Fan Shilang is so used to his family, His nephew's biological parents and other people in his hometown also knew about these things, but they didn't stop them at all, which shows that he is not a good person. And children who grow up in such an environment, I don't think they will be noble. Fan In fact, there are many evils in the family of Shi Lang and Yue Zhang, but I didn't say them all. I always think that it is a good punishment to sit down and punish the nine clans together, because those who disregard the pain of others should also experience the feeling of losing all their relatives. , and suffer all the pain."
Zhao Yunyuan was shocked and speechless, just stared at her blankly.
Gu Hongjian restrained himself, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I just said it casually, you don't have to take it to heart. We have different ideas, so don't discuss these things in the future. Fan Shilang's matter has been decided. , It's useless to talk too much. Zhao Hanlin thinks what I'm doing is wrong, but I won't change anything."
Zhao Yunyuan frowned and nodded: "Well..."
Gu Hongjian became famous because of the Fan Shilang incident, but many people, like Zhao Yunyuan, felt that Gu Hongjian's methods were too vicious. Seeing that, he silently collected the person's information, and finally came to impeachment.
And Gu Hongjian's impeachment is not all as ruthless as Fan Shilang's. If it is just a real opinion, Gu Hongjian generally ignores it, but if he is disrespectful to Lin Size, he will come here just because he is an official. If you see it, the degree of disrespect to Lin Size will increase the degree of impeachment.
Some officials are actually quite upright, but Gu Hongjian was stunned to find out a lot of mistakes. Lin Size himself did not want to punish them, but Gu Hongjian's memorial made him have to give some punishment. Over time, Gu Hong's The word is almost the same as a lackey. No one knows where she, a woman, comes from so many means and methods to collect all kinds of information from others. No one knows why she is so ruthless, sometimes impeaching others, every word seems to kill people, and even the smallest things can be exaggerated infinitely.
And if someone looked at Gu Hongjian and didn't like her, and talked about her being a woman, the fate would be even worse.
And Zhao Yunyuan's teacher Wang Xueshi thought that after Gu Hongjian was beaten 30 times and nearly died, Zhao Yunyuan finally couldn't sit still, and took the lead in impeaching Gu Hongjian, what is the hornet's heart, the jackal's nature, it came from here .
However, Gu Hongjian let Zhao Yunyuan go.
She could see that Lin Size admired Zhao Yunyuan very much, and she herself admired him a lot. Even if the two had completely different ways of dealing with the world, Zhao Yunyuan's impeachment memorials were still based on the facts, without any selfishness mixed in.
Gu Hongjian is willing to ignore such impeachment, and if she ignores it, Lin Size naturally ignores it.
Besides Gu Hongjian gradually gaining a firm foothold in the court, more importantly, her relationship with Lin Size was improving step by step.
Lin Size knew what she had done for Lin Size, and she also saw Lin Size's unconditional retreat towards her.
Although Gu Hongjian didn't talk much after entering the office, in order to avoid suspicion, it was precisely because they didn't talk that they didn't see each other very often, but they were supported by a wonderful thing that could be called "tacit understanding".
Lin Size never said that he disliked any minister, but Gu Hongjian always handed over the impeachment memorandum immediately.
Gu Hongjian never said what obstacles he encountered, but those obstacles were immediately clear.
Compared with the hard years when they supported each other back-to-back, the road is much smoother now, but the two of them cannot be as close as they used to be. However, even if the subtle estrangement exists, it seems that they can be at any time. puncture.
This strange atmosphere continued until the fall of the second year of Pingchang. On Lin Size's birthday, the emperor's birthday was naturally a day off. Gu Hongjian thought about it all morning, and went into the palace with wine.
Anyone who is a little smarter knows that Gu Hongjian is a popular person in front of the emperor, so Gu Hongjian entered the study without any hindrance. Even though it was her birthday, Lin Size still reviewed the memorials in the study as usual. Seeing her coming, she raised her eyebrows. , but she was not too surprised, so she sat on the side and continued to read the memorial.
Gu Hongjian put the jug on the ground, sat opposite Lin Size, and yawned lazily.
Lin Size actually noticed it and said, "You didn't sleep well last night?"
"Well, I stayed at Jiang Shangshu's house for a while last night." Gu Hongjian yawned again.
Lin Size frowned and said, "I didn't say it before, don't do this anymore."
Gu Hong saw the ruffian and said, "Anyway, if you are idle, you are idle."
Lin Size said, "Go inside and rest first."
Gu Hongjian nodded and sat on the soft couch inside the screen of Wen Dao Hall, basking in the sunshine outside, yawning, and squinting and falling asleep after a while.
When she was woken up, it was already evening. It was Lin Size's birthday, but only she and Lin Size had dinner. Gu Hongjian felt strangely satisfied.
Lin Size looked at Gu Hongjian pouring wine for himself and him, and said in a hurry, "Do you want to get me drunk again and run away this time?"
Gu Hongjian didn't see any guilty conscience at all, and said, "How is it possible. I won't use the same trick twice, and I believe you won't be fooled twice."
Lin Size glanced at her and said nothing.
Gu Hongjian said again: "If I want to run away this time, I will use other methods!"
Lin Size sneered.
"Why do you laugh so scarily?" Gu Hongjian pouted and poured him some wine, "Come on, keep drinking."
In fact, Gu Hongjian kept everything she wanted to say in her heart, but she didn't want to say it, so she simply brought it over for a drink.
When she drank, Lin Size naturally had to follow along.
In this way, the snow outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, but the inside of the house was getting warmer and warmer. Gu Hongjian's face became bloody, and Lin Size's face slowly turned red.
Lin Size rubbed his temples, and said in a bit of distress: "Okay, really stop drinking."
Gu Hongjian glanced at him, took another sip of wine, and said lazily, "I'm not drunk yet..."
Lin Size reached for her cup and said, "Stop drinking."
Gu Hongjian suddenly became angry, and patted his hand very unhappily, and said, "Why are you so annoying?! I can drink as much as I want, you don't care!"
Lin Size took her cup away again with a blank expression, and said, "Don't drink it."
Gu Hongjian: "..."
She was really angry. Her face, which was red from drunkenness, was about to explode because of anger. However, seeing Lin Size's calm expression, Gu Hongjian stood up angrily and walked to Lin Size's side to grab her glass of wine. .
Lin Size casually grabbed her outstretched hand and said, "Why?"
Gu Hongjian said, "Get out of here! I'm drinking by myself, I'm not happy to see you anymore!"
"No." Lin Size unexpectedly smiled at her, "Besides, this is the imperial study. How could you drive me away?"
Gu Hong saw the blue veins jumping, but after a long silence, she did not go to grab it, but stood there blankly, silently shedding a line of tears, her nose was still twitching, her eyes were red, and her whole body was like a Only the little rabbit who was robbed of carrots.
Lin Size: "..."
It wasn't the first time he saw Gu Hongjian cry, but the last time he looked back at Hongjian's cry was so resolute and forbearance, which was completely different from this time.
This kind of weakness and sadness, with a hint of pity in the sadness, and a cute cry in the pity, how could it belong to Gu Hongjian? !
Lin Si Ze suddenly felt that he was really drunk.
He stared blankly at Gu Hongjian who was standing on the spot crying, but he didn't say anything to comfort him for a while, while Gu Hongjian cried for a while, then muttered softly, "That's how you are... always taking away what I want... "
Lin Size looked at her and said, "I stole something from you? Except... this wine glass."
Gu Hongjian said blankly, "You took Lin Size away."
Lin Size sighed in disbelief, thinking, she is really drunk...
But she heard Gu Hongjian say again: "Lin Size was taken away by you, so he is completely different from before..."
Lin Si Ze put down Gu Hongjian's wine glass with an unpredictable expression, raised his own wine glass, took a sip, and said, "Why is it different?"
In the huge room, Gu Hongjian was still muttering nonsense to himself: "If you hadn't robbed Lin Size, how could he have become so annoying... Although he was also quite annoying at first, he Don't look at me like that..."
Lin Size frowned, drinking, and said, "What kind of eyes?"
"I hate my eyes."
Gu Hongjian said softly, blinked, and then burst into tears.
Lin Size could only continue to sip his wine.
He could no longer look back on how he saw Gu Hongjian that day, after all, it had been too long, too long.
Lin Size couldn't even recall Zuo Ningyan's voice and smile clearly.
However, it was true that that day, his mood was disordered, and he was also very annoyed that Gu Hongjian did not save Zuo Ningyan, but there was nothing to say about hatred.
Now that he has calmed down, he will no longer blame Gu Hongjian for this matter, but hearing Gu Hongjian say this about himself made him feel a little guilty.
Lin Size sipped his wine one by one and said, "How can I hate you. You think too much."
Gu Hong said: "Bah! Don't lie to me! I know it very well! Lin Size hates me and wants me to die."
Lin Si Ze had a headache and said, "What's going on here?"
When did he want her to die? !
Thanks to what she said...
Gu Hongjian didn't answer honestly this time, but said to himself: "I said I wanted to leave, but he didn't even stay... He sent me away after giving me a little money, and I told him to leave. I've been with him for thirteen years! He just used the money to send me off, thinking I was a beggar!?"
Lin Size slapped the table: "It's unreasonable!"
Gu Hongjian responded and said: "Right! He is simply unreasonable!"
Lin Size said angrily: "I mean you are unreasonable! You want to leave, you steal the things in my palace to sell money, and you cheat other people's money. You look like you are going to leave, why should I keep you?! Can I keep it?! I might as well let you go, lest you be unhappy in the palace every day!"
Gu Hongjian was stunned by his yelling, looked at him blankly, and then followed his example and slapped the table angrily: "Why are you yelling at me?! You and Lin Size are in the same group! You both look so similar!"
Lin Size held his forehead in pain: "..."
Gu Hong said: "If Lin Si Ze really wanted to keep me, how could he not be able to keep it... Since childhood, when did I never hear what he said?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Hongjian suddenly said such words, Lin Size was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent.
Gu Hong said: "If he asked me to stay, how could I not stay in the palace? But he already drove me away that day... He drove me away. Just because Zuo Ningyan... I've been gone for so long. , he didn't even pay attention... You say, is he a person?!"
Lin Size sighed and said, "Jiang Haifu clearly communicates with you every time. If it wasn't for him, where would Jiang Haifu get so many letters to write to you?"
"It sounds nice." Gu Hongjian said with disdain, "Jiang Haifu wrote those letters because Lin Size didn't want to use me. Lin Size deliberately told me that he was in a crisis, so that I could help him solve the problem... I How useful, isn't it, Lin Size doesn't have to tell me, I'll rush to solve the problem myself! I made up my mind to leave, and finally came back... Doesn't he know it too!"
Lin Size said: "Lin Size is already the emperor, he will be short of people?!"
Gu Hong was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Yes, you're right, Lin Size has no shortage of people... It's not that he can't do without me. He told me, just casually said that it was me who made a fool of myself and ran away. Help him solve those things... what kind of female official, like a joke."
Lin Size stood up, grabbed her shoulders, and said, "It's not like that."
"What's that like?" Gu Hongjian looked up at him, and there was still water light in his eyes that had not completely dissipated.
Lin Size looked at her and said, "Yes... I'm telling you on purpose to see if you are still willing to do everything for me as before."
Gu Hongjian twitched the corners of his mouth: "Lin Size, you are really not a thing... You are really not a thing... What do you mean... You don't want me, but I'm not allowed to want you, right?"
Lin Size looked at her and thought, Gu Hongjian was not the only one who was drunk.
Because the next second, he squeezed Gu Hongjian's chin and kissed it.
Both of them had an unresolved smell of alcohol, and when they touched it a little, it was like a prairie fire burning out of control. Gu Hongjian was stunned for a moment, and then he wrapped his hands around Lin Size's neck, jerky and confused. , and responded enthusiastically to him.
Unconsciously, Lin Size's hand moved from Gu Hongjian's chin to Gu Hongjian's waist. He wrapped his arms around her waist and found that she was slender than expected, and her waist was so soft that it seemed that it could be broken at any time.
It's really strange, she is such a tough person, yet her body is so soft.
Lin Size tilted his head slightly, ended the kiss temporarily, and said in a low voice, "I... I didn't want you."
Gu Hong looked at him with red eyes and didn't answer. The arm that was still around his neck pulled him down slightly, and then their lips collided again.
The brazier in the house was still burning unhurriedly, maintaining the heat in the house. Gu Hongjian gently fell on the soft couch, and then Lin Size and his breath covered the sky and covered the ground.
Gu Hongjian gained a hint of clarity at a certain moment, and she suddenly realized what she was doing.
The only reason that could convince her to let her escape from Lin Size and return to Lin Size uncontrollably was that she told herself, go back to him and become a courtier.
Just like a man, like a brother, help him, and no longer have any other thoughts.
But she didn't.
She knew that this must be the worst thing in her life.
However, she was powerless to resist, and could only watch herself falling into the abyss, falling.
In the end, there will be a day of shattering.
