Chapter 35 Waiting for the next update
The emperor didn't need to say anything. The few secret guards who came over just surrounded him from a distance, and no one came forward.
Everyone formed a circle in tacit understanding and continued to follow the carriage forward.
After hearing the whistle and looking at the scene, I guessed whose carriage it was without anyone reporting it.
Helian Hao was soaked. The autumn rain had begun to cool down, but it couldn't extinguish the fire in his heart.
He was afraid that Gu Shixin would really leave like this, and that what the little palace maid said would come true and he would never see Gu Shixin again in this life. The anxiety that no one else could understand kept burning in his heart, and was about to drain him dry.
I don't know why, but I felt confused for a moment.
When he first ascended the throne, even when the Prince of Yan led his army to attack the capital, he had never been so helpless. Helian Hao actually shook the reins and reined in his mount.
The horse was reined in and turned half a circle before it stopped. His heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat.
The thumping of the sound made his ears hurt, and he couldn't tell why. He was just scared and panicked, and didn't dare to get any closer to the carriage.
He didn't even dare to think about the sleepless pursuit all the way. What would he do if he really could never see her again in this life?
After seven days, he finally caught up with him, but he didn't dare to go forward.
Helian Hao circled the horse but did not let it go forward. The horse was so anxious that it neighed continuously.
He stood there frozen, time stretching out infinitely. Helian Hao watched the carriage running farther and farther away, his throat dry from nervousness.
The carriage was surrounded by several secret guards, so its speed slowed down, but it was still moving away.
As he watched the carriage go away, his heart suddenly rose to his throat in panic.
Gu Shixin, his Gu Shixin, he couldn't let him leave, Helian Hao kicked the horse's belly.
Sunset finally received the command to move forward and ran forward with all its might.
Helian Hao's eyes were fixed on the carriage that was getting closer and closer. His gaze almost penetrated the carriage and saw the man sitting upright in it.
Luo Ri did not receive the order to stop and soon overtook the carriage. Helian Hao tightened the reins again, but this time he only tightened the reins on one side and ordered Luo Ri to turn around.
The setting sun turned in a different direction, crossed the horse, and blocked the carriage's path.
Helian Hao forced the carriage to stop.
He wanted to speak, but found his throat was very tight. He didn't know whether it was because he had hardly drunk any water during the journey in order to get off the horse less often, or because he was nervous when he saw the coachman in front of the carriage.
He swallowed hard several times and wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, no sound came out.
Zhou Meng watched the emperor open his mouth and saw his dry lips. He knew that the emperor had drunk less water than the secret guards during the journey. Without Eunuch Su accompanying him, he had to keep an eye on the emperor. He immediately rode closer and handed the water bag to the emperor, "Master, drink some water."
Helian Hao's eyes were still fixed on the curtain of the carriage, as if he could see through it.
The emperor refused to take the water bag, and Zhou Meng was helpless. Was he going to kill himself? What should he do? So he tried to put the water bag mouth to the emperor's mouth.
Helian Hao felt something enter his sight, and if it went up any further it would block his eyes. He grabbed it and threw it away directly.
Looking at the boss who was on the edge of death, Zhou You's heart was in his throat. He was quietly approaching the two of them, wanting to save the boss at the critical moment, but he didn't expect the water bag to hit him.
One of them leaned forward and grabbed the water bag steadily, not daring to spill the water for fear of alarming the emperor, who was not a good-tempered master.
He shook his head gently at their boss. Zhou Meng didn't understand what he meant. "Why didn't you send the water to the emperor after you received it?" He looked at Zhou You with questioning eyes.
Zhou You felt that sooner or later his boss would die of stupidity, so he didn't care about anything else and frantically sent the boss the signal to retreat.
Zhou Meng frowned. Although he didn't understand why, he knew it was always right to listen to the second brother when working together on a mission. So based on his years of habit, he subconsciously led his horse slowly away from the emperor.
Helian Hao just stopped in front of the carriage. He didn't look at Luo Yu who was driving outside the carriage. He stared at the curtain of the carriage without blinking.
Luo Yu looked at the emperor with a cold expression, jumped out of the carriage and knelt down, "Master, our master is in poor health..."
It would have been better if he hadn't said it. These words seemed to activate a switch. Helian Hao, who had been stiff and insensitive all the way, just heard Luo Yu talking about Gu Shixin's body, and suddenly he felt a real knife piercing his heart. The numbness and insensitivity disappeared completely, and the pain was intense.
Helian Hao didn't see Luo Yu until then, and lashed him with his whip, "What were you doing before? You want to talk about your master's health now?" His voice was hoarse and torn, but at least he said the words.
Helian Hao's eyes were bloodshot. Even though the secret guards tried various ways to get him to dismount and rest, he could seldom fall asleep. When he thought of what the palace maid said, he wanted to kill someone!
Why? That was General Wang of Dayu, how could he have suffered so many injuries, both internal and external? That was his Gu Shixin, how could he leave him forever?
What would he do if Gu Shixin really died?
Now seeing Luo Yu, he was even more furious. This was someone who deserved to be killed.
Gu Shixin was seriously injured and suffered from an old illness. What was he, Luo, doing?
He deserved to die if he hadn't been protected on the battlefield. He didn't even report it when he returned to Beijing. This man deserves to die.
When the emperor whipped him, Luo Yu didn't dodge or avoid it and was hit head-on.
The curtain of the carriage, which had been motionless all the time, suddenly moved, and a pale hand lifted the curtain with emotion.
Helian Hao was all too familiar with that outstretched hand. He knew the other side of that slender, bony hand was covered in calluses. He knew they were the result of years of wielding weapons, and he even memorized the location of every callus.
Helian Hao saw that the curtain was only half opened and could not see the face of the person in the car.
"I am tired of being a general. I am resigning and leaving the capital. If you really don't want to let me go, you can issue an imperial decree to recall me or torture me. What's the point of having a guard?"
Gu Shixin's voice was still as calm as when he said in the palace that he wanted to go back home to rest, but Helian Hao could hear that the speaker was angry.
Yes, from childhood to adulthood, he had listened to so many words from Gu Shixin. At first, he had to look at his facial expression to tell whether he was happy or angry, because he often could not hear the anger in his extremely angry voice.
But as time went by, he not only heard Gu Shixin's truly gentle voice, but also heard his voice when he was furious, heard his whispers when he was rubbing his ears, and he didn't know how many times he had swallowed the unfinished words from his lips.
How could one not hear Gu Shixin's current emotions? He was always like this, the calmer his tone, the more furious he became.
Helian Hao blurted out the word "you..." without thinking, and there was no further words.
His first reaction was that Gu Shixin was angry with him because of someone named Luo. But when he said the word "you", he suddenly thought: Gu Shixin was not in good health and had just vomited blood. He couldn't be angry. He couldn't make him angry...
