Li Chaoge looked at Gu Mingke's movements, and thought that it was not a mistake. He poured wine, poured wine, and spoke in one go. According to her, his aim was very good.
Just as Li Chaoge opened his mouth to say something, Gu Mingke held her wrist and said seriously: "You don't want it? Don't take it seriously? It's cold outside, and it's easy to catch cold when your clothes are wet."
After finishing speaking, he nodded slightly to Zhang Yanzhi, his eyes were reasonable and straightforward: "We are going to change clothes, excuse me."
All right, Li Chaoge gave up talking and stood up with Gu Mingke. She only wet the small part of her sleeves, no matter how slow she moved, she would have done it. Li Chaoge really didn't know what to do to catch a cold.
I don't know? I don't know if it's her illusion, the current Gu Mingke is like a peacock with its hair blown up, full of a kind of courteous demeanor who cares about the body of the lord, unlike other coquettish sluts who only seduce.
Zhang Yanzhi watched helplessly as Gu Mingke pulled Li Chaoge away. The princess was stained with wine, and the son-in-law was worried that the princess would catch a cold, so he hurriedly took it to change clothes, can Zhang Yanzhi stop it? Zhang Yanzhi pinched the wine glass so hard that his knuckles turned white.
After leaving the bonfire, the two walked to a place where there were few people. Seeing that there was no one around, Gu Mingke reached out and brushed Li Chaoge's cuff. The slight wine stains on it quickly evaporated, and finally the clothes became clean, even the smell of wine? No. Seeing this, Li Chaoge asked, "Do I still need a change of clothes?"
She has already changed two clothes today, it's already this hour, and she will be going to bed soon, Li Chaoge really doesn't want to bother.
Gu Mingke snorted very softly, like a cat at home throwing a tantrum. Li Chaoge was helpless and asked, "What's wrong with you today?"
"It's nothing." Gu Mingke said slowly, "Are you bothering the princess?"
As soon as he changed the name of her to princess, he began to feel strange. Li Chaoge sighed secretly: "No, I'm worried that you will be unhappy."
Gu Mingke felt a little more at ease, and said, "He has bad intentions, stay away from him in the future."
Gu Mingke originally thought that Li Chaoge wouldn't believe it. He was ready to explain to Li Chaoge where Zhang Yanzhi's ulterior motives were. In the end, Li Chaoge nodded slightly: "Okay."
Gu Mingke was slightly startled, and turned around in surprise: "You don't even ask why?"
"It's not about handling cases. How can I need it in life? There are so many reasons." Li Chaoge said, "Although I really don't understand why you say he has bad intentions, but since you don't like it, then I'll just stay away. It's nothing Important person, he is the queen's favorite man after all, keeping distance is good for everyone."
Gu Mingke looked at Li Chaoge, the night was hazy, and the stars in the sky were faintly visible, but her eyes were very clear, and she said these words as it should be, as if for Gu Mingke, others can give in. Gu Mingke seemed to be scratched by something, and his heart became soft and floating.
The two of them didn't talk about changing clothes anymore. Li Chaoge walked with Gu Mingke? On the grass with the breeze, he asked in a low voice, "Are you in a bad mood recently?"
Gu Mingke wanted to say no, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly changed his mind and said vaguely: "It's okay."
Is that the mood? Very bad. Li Chaoge sighed slightly, and said, "This place is clean and empty, shall we sit here for a while?"
Gu Mingke nodded in agreement. Li Chaoge sat down on the grass. She looked up at the stars all over the sky, and said, "It's been a long time since I saw the stars like this. In my impression, only the Ten Mile Mountains have such a dark sky and so many stars."
Gu Mingke sat down beside her and asked, "You always mention? Pingshan and Jiannan, is this place important to you?"
Gu Mingke didn't know? What was in his mind? He singled out Pingshan and said it. Li Chaoge said: "Yeah, after all, this is where I grew up. At that time, I was young and only cared about martial arts. The biggest worries I had every day were that I didn't learn sword moves, I didn't win fights, love and hate? So pure. Later, when I left Dashan, I realized that the outside world was much more prosperous than in the mountains. At first, I really wanted to capture these brilliance, but after a long time, I found that the so-called prosperity is not as pleasant as I imagined. like."
Gu Mingke can understand that what she has always pursued is strength and strength. She actually doesn't like dealing with people. There are too many intrigues in Dongdu. Even relatives are full of temptations and exploits when they speak.
Li Chaoge looked at Gu Mingke and asked, "Do you have any regrets since you grew up?"
Pity? Gu Mingke thought about it seriously for a while. He was born in the royal family, and by chance, he was promoted to immortality. After coming to the heavenly court, he took the post of star king smoothly, and then was promoted to heavenly lord. When he became Beichen Tianzun, everything went smoothly. He made several great achievements and gradually became the head of the four. Such a resume, let alone regret seems too hypocritical
But Gu Mingke looked back on these years, his life was peaceful and peaceful for more than a thousand years, but there was nothing worth remembering. Even up? Volts? No, why regret it
Gu Mingke shook his head, Li Chaoge thought he had no regrets, couldn't believe it, and asked: "Really? You have grown up so big, but you have no regrets?"
Gu Mingke still shook his head: "No."
Li Chaoge found it strange that he had no regrets about what kind of life he was living. Li Chaoge asked: "Didn't you have anything you really wanted when you were young?"
Gu Mingke paused slightly, Li Chaoge noticed it, and immediately moved closer to stare at him. Gu Mingke smiled, stepped back and said, "Why do you keep asking me today?"
"Because I care about you." Li Chaoge disliked sitting restrained. She put her hands behind her head and fell on the grass. Half of her head was supported by a slender palm on the back of her head: "It rained today, and the ground is cold."
"Is it all right?" Li Chaoge didn't care, "This cold air won't hurt me."
Li Chaoge was resistant to falls and beatings since he was a child, and now he still has body protection, not to mention lying on the grass, even if he sleeps on ice, he will still be alive and kicking the next day. But Gu Mingke supported the back of her head, put her on his lap, and said, "I'll catch a cold."
Li Chaoge came into contact with the silky and watery fabric, so he didn't bother to argue with him, so he simply changed to a comfortable position and lay down. Gu Mingke has tempered his body with aura for many years, and there is no trace of fat on his body. His legs are slender and well-proportioned, firm and powerful, and he feels very comfortable when he sleeps on his pillow.
Li Chaoge was lying flat. From her point of view, the sky was like ink and the stars were shining brightly. The corners of Gu Mingke's white clothes were gently fluttering in the wind. Upward along the clothes was his slender neck and beautiful jawline.
Even at this angle, he still looks good? It's incredible. The night wind passed through the grass, making a soft rustling sound, and the fireflies shuttled up and down in the grass. Everything was quiet and peaceful, as if someone had strayed into someone's dream.
The tip of Li Chaoge's nose enveloped his breath. I don't know whether it's because his legs are too comfortable or the environment is too relaxed. Li Chaoge lay down for a while, feeling a little sleepy. Li Chaoge closed her eyes, she just wanted to rest for a while, but fell asleep without paying attention.
It was this dream again. Long time no see, this boy has grown a lot taller. Now he should be called a boy, his shoulders are stretched apart, his legs are significantly longer, but his chest and back are still slender, which is an obvious skeleton of a teenager.
He stood with his back to Li Chaoge, with both hands full of bow and arrow, he let go quickly, and the arrow flew out with a buzzing sound, hitting the bull's-eye.
The master next to him clapped his hands and praised: "The second son is a fast learner, and the son is very talented in martial arts."
The young man known as the second son put down his bow and arrow and asked, "Brother Wang is still learning divination?"
The attendants around promised: "Yes, divination is difficult. The Grand Duke has been thinking about it for half a month, and it seems to have made progress today."
So, the Grand Duke didn't come to learn bow and arrow again. Since Wang Jun knew of the existence of the two brothers, many classes were taken together by the two of them. However, as the two children grew up, the differences between the two brothers became more and more serious.
Even twin brothers have different preferences. Dagong? Zi is very smart. He can read and write at the age of three and can recite politics at the age of five. He is good at literature and history courses, but he doesn't like horseback riding and archery. On the contrary, the second son was taciturn in the literature and history class, but he would be more lively when he came to the martial arts arena.
Li Chaoge was standing behind the second son. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he had an inexplicable feeling that he was not bad at literature and history, but knew that he couldn't show off in this kind of place. On the contrary, in the martial arts class that his brother didn't like, he was able to perform freely.
He practiced for a while, put down his bow and arrow, and went back to the palace.
Li Chaoge followed him into the palace. In this era, black is the most respected, and there are simple and solemn decorations everywhere in the palace. The second prince entered the palace, and he saw that the queen and the eldest prince were both there. He saluted his mother and elder brother: "Mother, brother."
The two people in the seat nodded lightly. The second prince sat down and listened to the queen and the eldest prince complaining: "That lowly servant girl Xuanji slandered the king again, asking the king to appoint her son as his son, and she is also worthy."
Neither the Grand Duke nor the Second Duke said a word. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Xuan Ji is impossible to succeed, and the name of the Grand Duke of the Kui Kingdom has spread far and wide to all countries. Even the emperor knows that the Qin family has produced a son who is extremely intelligent and astute. As long as King Kui is not stupid, he will know who should be appointed as the heir. However, Xuan Ji is indeed favored. King Kui has been haunted by his concubine for a long time, so it is inevitable that he will make a promise or two casually.
But no one in the outer dynasty took Xuan Ji seriously? King Kui never allowed Xuan Ji to reach out to the two princes. However, the women in the deep palace only look at the three-acre land in the harem, and the queen still has a grudge against Xuan Ji. Whenever she finds an opportunity, she will complain to her son about Xuan Ji.
The two listened to the queen's scolding for a while, and the second son found an opportunity and asked, "Brother Wang, you didn't go for archery today. If you really can't find the way to divination, you might as well forget it."
Divination has always been the monopoly of priests, and it is even more difficult for the Grand Duke, an outsider, to understand the mystery. The Grand Duke shook his head: "No. If I don't learn, who knows what they will divination. Instead of passively defending, it is better to take the initiative to attack."
The entanglement of interests is always very complicated. The priests nominally do not interfere in worldly affairs? But in fact they have a lot of connections with the inner palace. Any major event in the kingdom must go through the high priest, and the results of the priest's divination are not always in their favor.
After being tricked several times by others, the prince kept silent and began to learn divination by himself.
The second son also has to admit that his elder brother is a very smart person, his wisdom is very close to that of a monster, and he is not mature like a young man. His feelings for his elder brother are very complicated. He has lived in the shadow of Brother Wang since he was a child, and often wants to play the role of Brother Wang. However, many of his abilities, habits, and ideas have been learned from Brother Wang. After he was five years old, he was free, and began to read the books that Brother Wang had read, read the notes written by Brother Wang, and after his progress caught up with his brother, he went to class with Brother Wang.
For a while they were inseparable, however? As the brothers grew up, they spent less and less time together. Especially after the Grand Duke came into contact with the government, his energy was more and more focused on dealing with interpersonal relationships, and the courses were reduced instead. Up to now, the prince still listens to courses such as literature and history, but he doesn't go to other courses such as horseback riding and archery.
The second son can only attend classes by himself, read books by himself, and practice martial arts by himself. Their wives are specially selected, and no news about them will be leaked. Outside, there is still only one Grand Duke in Kui Kingdom.
The Grand Duke's cheeks are immature, but at this moment, he is like a backbone giving orders, arranging things calmly: "I have my own arrangements for divination. Xuan Ji is indeed too far out of bounds, even dare to think about her son. Mother, you just look at it?" Take care of the harem and take care of the remaining princes, Wang Ji and Xuan Ji, I will take care of it."
It is obvious that the prince is the son, but the queen happily responded to the prince's words, without any anxiety on her face. The Grand Duke looked at Li Chaoge again, and Li Chaoge knew that the Grand Duke was not looking at her, but at the second prince in front of her: "In a few days, my father will take people to Yeshan for hunting. I'm too lazy to go out, second brother, you go."
The second son nodded and replied, "Okay."
·
Gu Mingke suddenly woke up from his dream. He opened his eyes and realized that he had fallen asleep on his lap at some point. Li Chaoge closed his eyes and pillowed on his other leg, sleeping very peacefully.
Gu Mingke's eyes turned cold. He had doubts yesterday, but now he is sure that there is something wrong with these dreams.
Gu Mingke leaned over and called Li Chaoge softly: "Li Chaoge, wake up."
Li Chaoge didn't move at all. With her vigilance, she definitely shouldn't be so sleepy.
Gu Mingke's face became more and more serious. He saw a purple flower on her cheek. Gu Mingke gently picked up the flower and looked around. Sure enough, he saw an unknown purple flower in the grass.
Late at night, the dew is heavy, and the purple flowers are hidden in the green grass, as if a burst of purple mist is transpiring. Gu Mingke originally thought that this kind of flower grew on trees, so he didn't take precautions against the grassland. Unexpectedly, it was the purple flowers that mattered, not the vegetation.
Gu Mingke glanced, not in the mood? He pursued it here, but bowed his head to call Li Chaoge. Li Chaoge fell into a deep sleep, no matter how much he woke up? He couldn't wake up. Gu Mingke's mood sank, he leaned over to pick up Li Chaoge, and walked towards the palace.
When he got up, he saw Zhang Yanzhi standing not far away, and he didn't know how long he had been looking at it. Gu Mingke ignored it and left with Li Chaoge.
The maids were shocked when they saw the son-in-law coming back with the princess in his arms, but seeing that the princess was sleeping soundly, no one dared to ask. Gu Mingke carefully placed Li Chaoge on the bed, while the maids stood by and carefully considered their words: "My son-in-law, princess? What's wrong with the lord?"
The queen is hosting a bonfire banquet outside today? They also know that it is common to have fun at the banquet, plus the consort and the princess are husband and wife... The maids are afraid that if they are not careful, they will ask something. Should not have known.
Gu Mingke didn't go into details, but said: "She's asleep. You take care of her so well, I'll come back as soon as I go."
The maids bowed their heads together: "Yes."
Gu Mingke took two steps, then stopped suddenly, turned around and asked, "Where was this place before?"
The maids were stunned for a moment: "No one lived in this palace before, and it has been vacant all the time. Don't worry, the son-in-law, the slaves have been cleaned well and will never accumulate dust."
Didn't the maid understand what he meant? Gu Mingke could only speak more clearly: "Before the construction of the Xinggong Palace, what was this place?"
The maids were all dumbfounded by the question, since the previous dynasty, this place has been a temporary palace, how do they know what the training palace was like before. The maids whispered to each other, and finally, a woman said uncertainly: "The servant heard from the old man that it seemed that this was some kind of temple before. Later, the former emperor liked the scenery here, so he demolished the temple and rebuilt the summer palace."
The last emperor of the previous dynasty loved to have fun. During his reign, he built a lot of buildings and played songs every night. After Li Tang founded the country, many palaces took over from the previous dynasty.
Consistent with Gu Mingke's conjecture, Gu Mingke asked again: "Has anyone died before the palace?"
Gu Mingke's question became more and more frightening. The maids rubbed their arms in fear and said, "In such a big palace, it's normal for one or two people to die every year due to wind, cold or injury."
After the maid finished speaking, she asked cautiously: "My son-in-law, why are you asking this? Is there any problem with the feng shui of the palace?"
Gu Mingke understood in his heart that there was no fear on their expressions, which meant that those women died of natural causes. At least from their point of view, it is not murder, not hanging, not a serious disease, and there is no need to pay special attention to it. Gu Mingke didn't answer the maid's question, he asked them to take care of him? Li Chaoge turned around and left.
Li Chaoge felt nothing in the dream, and she followed the second son through his life. The boy is growing up day by day, and he will be fifteen in the blink of an eye. Fifteen-year-old Lang Jun is tall, tall, and heroic. Standing in front of the palace, he is taller than willows.
Today a certain princess hosted a banquet and invited many noble ladies in the imperial garden. There are often strange and beautiful women coming and going in and out of the palace, but the second son doesn't care about it. Wearing a black dark coat, he strode across the willows towards the palace.
As he passed through the rhododendron bushes, he suddenly heard someone behind him. He stopped, turned around, and saw a young girl eagerly catching up to him with a quilted train. The girl didn't expect that he really stopped. She pinched the corner of her skirt in her hand and suddenly felt a little nervous.
He could only speak first and ask, "What's the matter?"
Standing among the red flowers, the girl stammered, "I'm here to thank Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr., do you remember me?"
He didn't answer, but the look? had given away his answer. The girl was a little embarrassed and said, "Master, do you still remember that a tiger escaped suddenly when the king was hunting three years ago? I was there that day and was almost thrown down by the tiger. It was Mr. Master who saved me."
He gradually got the impression that that time his elder brother was too lazy to go out and asked him to accompany his father to Yeshan to play. The king kept a fierce tiger in the palace. Unexpectedly, the tiger broke free from the cage and almost killed him. Later, he shot the tiger to death, and finally calmed down.
Seeing that he remembered him, the girl said joyfully, "I was standing by the cage at that time, and I was almost bitten by a tiger. It was the gentleman who stopped the tiger and saved my life at the critical moment. I always wanted to ask Mr. Thank you, but I am too timid to say anything.”
The girl seemed to muster up her courage, raised her eyes to look into his eyes, and said, "I have been following you for three years, and I have admired you for a long time. Today is my concubine, if you don't say anything else, it will be too late. Thank you, Mr. Your grace for saving your life back then."
This was the first time he had been confessed by a girl in person, and it was impossible for him not to be without turmoil, but following the girl's last sentence, his mood suddenly fell to the bottom.
She said that she admired him and followed him quietly for three years, but she still called him the eldest son. Does she like him, or the omnipotent, radiant brother Wang
The rhododendrons are as red as fire, and the slender boy is wearing a dark black dress. The girl opposite is charming and beautiful, shy and timid, but still bravely revealing her feelings. This is such a beautiful picture, but Li Chaoge looked at it from the side, but he was quite embarrassed.
Although I am sorry to say this? This boy, but Li Chaoge really thinks he is too miserable. For many years he has been playing a person who is more noble, smarter, and more likable than him. Finally, a girl came to confess his love to him, and she even called her brother's name. What kind of human tragedy is this.
At this moment, Li Chaoge strangely understood the boy's mood? Over the years, every time he appeared in front of people, he was worried. He was afraid of being recognized by others, but at the same time, he vaguely hoped that others would find out that there were two people.
He is not Brother Wang, he is another person.
Naturally, this confession ended without a problem. The girl was probably dizzy from crying. She couldn't understand why she was rejected. King Kui listened to the words of the sorcerer, and poured all the power of the country to forge the Qianyuan Sword, hoping to use this to borrow power from the sky and strengthen the national fortune of Kui. I don’t know if the country’s fortunes are prosperous or not, but because King Kui was wasting money on the people and money, the frontier soldiers couldn’t get their food and wages.
The nations are fighting endlessly, and it is not uncommon for you to deceive me and I to betray you, but Kui Kingdom did not expect this kind of thing to happen to them. The general took refuge with the neighboring country with the city, and the situation was immediately unfavorable to Kui. The general is familiar with the deployment of Kui's troops, and he still has 100,000 elite soldiers in his hands. If he leads troops to attack, Kui's country will face the disaster of subjugation in an instant.
In an emergency, the second son stepped forward and volunteered to fight at the border. Naturally, he used the name of Grand Duke
The Grand Duke of the Qin family has a great reputation in various countries, and the name of the child prodigy is powerful overseas. If the prince can come to the front line in person, the morale of the soldiers and the people will definitely increase, and the general who surrendered to the enemy will lose his momentum by three points when he sees the former young master.
This is the best solution so far. Moreover, the person who went out was the second prince. Even if an accident happened accidentally, the rightful master, the eldest prince, would still stay in the palace well, so that King Kui would not lose his heir. This matter was unanimously passed by the monarch and his ministers, and the second son rushed to the front line soon.
In the beginning, the courtiers just hoped that the "Grand Duke" would go to the front line to boost morale, but they did not expect that the Grand Duke, who had devoted himself to politics for many years, was still a military prodigy, and he showed amazing talent as soon as he went to the battlefield. With three wins and three victories at the frontier gate, the decline quickly reversed. Kui Kingdom changed its passive situation and even began to expand its territory.
Li Chaoge followed behind the second son, watching the young man kill with a sword. The sword in his hand is very familiar, it is the Qianyuan sword among the singers of Li Chao today. It's just that the Qianyuan Sword at this time is not so murderous. Its blade is silver-white, and the point of the sword is like snow under the moon.
Li Chaoge thought to himself, how many people would have to be killed before the sword could turn into a rich dark blue color? She watched him fight on the battlefield again and again, and the young man's slender and thin skeleton grew rapidly, becoming sharp, eye-catching, and aggressive.
Seeing him descending from the sky, the people were invincible, and they called him the god of war with gratitude but fear. In order to protect the tranquility of their homes, some people simply painted the statue of the God of War and pasted it on the door, hoping to scare off the rioters and bandits. Gradually, this habit spread more and more widely, and the Valkyrie on the portrait gradually became strange.
Li Chaoge clicked his tongue, rubbed his chin and said, "Could it be that I blamed others wrongly? Martial God is actually not that ugly, is it the common people spreading rumors?"
Li Chaoge thought that he once disliked the Martial God for being ugly, old, lustful, and immoral, and it was rare for him to feel a little guilty.
