Wu Qing didn't know that Gu Shixin had seen her before, and thought it was the first time they met.

She bowed politely before saying, "No one asked me to come here. I came here on my own. I beg the general to allow me to finish what I have to say."

She raised her eyes to look at Gu Shixin, and seeing that he did not show any dissatisfaction or intention to drive her out, she continued: "I am not here to persuade the general to eat... well, to have a meal. Even less am I here to persuade the general to see the imperial physician." Gu Shixin glanced at her indifferently.

Wu Qing continued, "I'm here to persuade General Wang to fight the Emperor to the end. He won't really kill you anyway."

Gu Shixin curled his lips, realizing that this was a plan to make her cause a big disturbance in the harem, making Helian Hao dislike her so that she could ascend to the throne. What a good scheme. But he knew it but didn't say anything. He wanted to see what other tricks this little palace maid had up her sleeve.

Gu Shixin looked like he was enjoying the show and asked, "Then what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to persuade the General to go crazy with him! If you're that crazy, why don't you just go crazy with him? You'll only make yourself mad. Why bother?" Wu Qing pointed at the things in the room. "Look at anything in this room that you don't like, and smash it! You don't even show your temper. Does the General fear the Emperor?"

Gu Shixin was not a good-tempered person, but he always tolerated Helian Hao because he really cared about him.

He endured everything and said nothing, and in the end he risked his life with Helian Hao, and he might not feel happy about it.

Wu Qing wanted to persuade him to vent his anger so that they could find a solution.

But when Gu Shixin heard these words, he thought: It is true. Even if it is a fight in the harem, this little palace maid is not an expert. She can't hide anything and everything is exposed in the open.

He felt like he was watching a clown.

Wu Qing thought Gu Shixin was considering the feasibility of her words, so she continued, "He has had feelings for you since childhood..." Seeing Gu Shixin's disdainful sneer, Wu Qing quickly interrupted the conversation and asked, "First, tell me whether you believe that he truly loves you?"

The answer is yes. If Gu Shixin didn't think Helian Hao's feelings for him were genuine, how could he have been so sure that Helian Hao would suffer a fate worse than death before he died? So Wu Qing already knew the answer before asking.

When Gu Shixin heard this, he nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that Gu Shixin agreed with her statement, Wu Qing continued, "Then why did you insist on torturing him with your death? Making both of them feel uncomfortable? What can you gain?

Why don't you just argue with him, fight with him, make him realize his love for you, and also face his misunderstanding of you.

Wouldn't it be nice to untie all the knots in your heart while you're still alive and live happily?"

Gu Shixin raised an eyebrow, not only said nothing, but also looked normal. But he was very surprised. He wanted to leave and never see the emperor again in his life. He had never told anyone about it. How did this little palace maid know?

And why did it sound like she wanted me to reconcile with Helian Hao? Did I misunderstand something?

Wu Qing knew that Gu Shixin didn't need anyone to teach him how to act. He was a troublemaker himself and had done a lot of things in the Northern Frontier.

The only difference is that it is not used in the right place.

In this relationship, because he cared about her, he put all his energy into forbearance and maintenance, but he never had any normal and effective communication with Helian Hao.

In the end, all he could think was: You make me feel bad, and I would rather die than let you feel good!

He focused his mind on planning for his afterlife and never thought: I want to torment you while I'm alive.

If he really couldn't make it, Wu Qing wouldn't be playing the lute to a cow. The key is that he knows how to make it, and he can make it work.

So Wu Qing just said something and advised him to put his energy where it should be used.

"In this relationship, you are a petty and vindictive person. You have to let him know that. Show him right in front of everyone!"

A petty person who will never let go of any grudge - this is how Gu Shixin evaluated himself in this relationship. However, he said it was okay, but when he heard others say it, he still felt uncomfortable and gave Wu Qing a dissatisfied look.

This big eye roll made Wu Qing laugh. She felt that this person was so cute, although this cutie was at least 185cm tall and not small at all.

Gu Shixin didn't say anything because he felt it made sense and he had indeed been too tolerant in front of Helian Hao.

He suddenly raised his eyes and smiled at Wu Qing.

Wu Qing also smiled. She knew she had made herself clear enough, and added, "Say your love, and always tell him that you love him."

Gu Shixin was confused again, "Love?"

Oh, and by the way, this is not the time to say "I love you."

Wu Qing thought for a moment and explained, "There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees. My heart loves you, but you don't know it. How can you say you don't know? You have to keep it in your mouth, let him know, whether you sing it or say it, you have to say it out loud."

"Say it out loud—" Gu Shixin thought for a moment and asked uncertainly, "'I love you'?"

Wu Qing nodded, her eyes suddenly lighting up, "You've said this before, right?"

Gu Shixin's mouth twitched and he shook his head. "We both risked our lives for each other, so what else is there to say?"

Wu Qing immediately asked, "What about when you don't have to risk your life?"

Gu Shixin stared, his eyes stiff.

Wu Qing covered her face at this expression.

She finally understood. They both thought that since they had risked their lives for each other, there was no need to say anything more. But how could love be achieved without management?

I picked up the plate of fruit, which I didn't know what it was, and put it aside. I took another one and took a bite. It was sour and sweet, and quite delicious.

While she was eating, she threw all the remaining tea and snacks on the small table onto the floor, making a loud ping-pong sound.

The noise in the room startled Su He outside the door, but seeing that Gu Shixin had no intention of letting anyone in, he first sent the eunuch to the cabinet to find the emperor.

After swallowing a mouthful of fruit, Wu Qing said, "Let's make a scene today. Don't hesitate. Just make it big. You don't have to be so hard on yourself. It would be great if he couldn't be happy. You know all his pain points, and you definitely know how to make him unhappy."

That’s right, Wu Qing is here to stir up trouble, and she plans to - eat melon tonight!

Gu Shixin was a little confused for a moment, "I know his pain, but how can we make it bigger?"

Oh, don't be so modest. Who should I ask if this matter has gotten out of hand?

If I hadn't come here, you would have been living in the streets, eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and even sneaking into the tent of a Hu woman, driving the dog emperor crazy and asking me how I got so angry. How did you ask me?

*Song of the Yue People

He Xixi tonight, rushing in the boat.

What day is today, I have to be in the same boat with the prince.

To be ashamed and disgusting, not to be ashamed.

I was so upset that I learned of the prince.

There are wood in the mountains and branches in the wood, and the heart is happy and the king does not know.
