Water doesn't make waves for no reason

Chapter 76 Confession

It must be dizziness. After being imprisoned for so long and drinking so much soup, maybe his eyesight has deteriorated again, and maybe a girl's name is Xuan Ling.

Gu Beiwang picked it up again, and took another look at the inscription. The two characters were flamboyantly stuck there, and he could faintly smell the fragrance of ink. Only the emperor can use this kind of ink.

Gu Beiwang's mind went blank for a few seconds, then he picked up the other two pieces of letter paper, which were also written by Xuan Ling. The font was exactly the same, but the content was different.

Only when facing outsiders, Xuan Ling has that majestic and dignified demeanor. When facing Gu Yuexi, he almost uses up all his patience and tolerance. Deep nostalgia.

Gu Beiwang understood it all. No wonder his father was willing to stay in this deep palace compound. He had no official position, no need to go to court, and was favored by the emperor. He didn't think much about it before, but he felt that the emperor was very tolerant of his father. There was really not much else. think.

However, whoever it is, it is impossible to think of any relationship between my father and the emperor beyond the monarch and ministers. Moreover, in today's fashion, masculinity is almost forbidden.

The most important thing is that the massacre of the Gu family is inextricably linked to that person, and the two have such a relationship.

"...Is it okay to live with Dad in the future? I will also move out of the palace..."

"Did I agree! Without my will, don't even think about it." Xuan Ling's furious voice...

"No problem. I also heard Yuexi talk about you. I met you today. I will stay here tonight and talk to him. Yuexi always misses you." Yuexi said...

"Yuexi, you want to leave the palace, unless I don't become the emperor one day."

...

The situation on the day when I entered the palace and recognized Gu Yuexi had once again confirmed the facts in the letter.

Gu Beiwang didn't know how to describe his current feeling, but behind him came the sound of a bookshelf being opened, and Gu Yuexi came out.

When Gu Yuexi came out, she saw that her son hadn't left, and her heart was filled with joy for a moment, but when she saw the letter paper in Gu Beiwang's hand, that joy was blown away, and there was no trace left.

"Father, it turns out that what you told me before, that you can't marry another wife, is because of the present Majesty, isn't it?"

"It's not because of mother, is it?"

"Father, did the dog emperor force you?! How could you..." Gu Beiwang turned around and looked at Gu Yuexi.

"He didn't force me." Gu Yuexi interrupted her son, looked at the disbelief in his son's eyes, and said with a wry smile, "I voluntarily."

Gu Beiwang's eyes widened, his skinny face, which had no blood in it, became paler now, the two of them were in a daze for a long time in this frozen space, and Gu Beiwang suddenly laughed.

The eyes are narrow and long, narrowed slightly, and the smile is overwhelming, but what is revealed in the eyes is an emotion that makes Gu Yuexi inexplicably flustered.

"Wang'er...? I'm sorry..."

Gu Beiwang stopped laughing, regained his usual indifference, and interrupted Gu Yuexi, "What right does a son have to blame his father? Father is not wrong, so don't apologize. Thinking about it carefully, our father and son...are really father and son."

"Father, tell me about the destruction of the Gu family."

"You told me a long time ago that you will tell me when the time comes."

Gu Beiwang found a chair and sat down, feeling that his body was gradually filling up, and the internal strength that had been lost for many days was recovering. Gu Yuexi made tea for the two of them, apparently as if preparing for a long talk.

So far, there is nothing to hide.Gu Yuexi started talking about it before the fire, until she was imprisoned by Xuan Ling all these years, and then how she knew the real reason for the destruction of the Gu family. Of course, he didn't talk about some things between the bed, more or less for Xuan Ling Ling thought, Gu Beiwang heard about Xuan Ling from Gu Yuexi, so there was nothing heinous about.

On the contrary, I couldn't help but be moved, the majestic emperor is so infatuated, and, moreover, he saved himself and his father.

After Gu Beiwang finished listening, he drank three cups of tea before he was able to speak.In the process of listening, there are anger, puzzlement, shock, surprise, shame, and gratitude.

In the end it was just blank, I didn't know what to say, and I couldn't say anything.

The world is impermanent, and fate is manipulated. Even the emperor is helpless. He can only use the most extreme methods to protect the people he wants to protect.

"So, you and I, father and son, shouldn't have survived in this world. Fortunately, you were young when the accident happened, and not many people knew you. After the accident, he must have secretly sent someone to protect you." .Dad...did a lot of things to hurt him before, and on New Year's Eve, he almost...killed him."

Gu Beiwang shook his hand pouring the tea, and the tea splashed onto his hand, and the hand holding the teacup immediately turned red.

That is a crime of killing the king, treason, and even the nine clans are not enough.

Gu Beiwang just said, "Father, now, you shouldn't object to me and Shen Yu anymore. Before you knew these things, you strongly objected, but my son still understood your good intentions, but now I know, father and I It's a fluke, and I can still meet the love of my life. You shouldn't and can't let me marry a wife and have children. Even if I didn't meet Shen Yu, I shouldn't. He is still trying to revive the Gu family."

"My son finally understands today. He is no longer heavy, but he is grateful." Finally, Gu Beiwang asked again, "Father, the matter between you and him was when my mother was still alive..."

"No. At that time, they were just monarchs and ministers." Gu Yuexi rushed to answer, after all, his dead wife was a thorn in his heart.

Gu Beiwang silently let out a sigh of relief in his heart, so he just accepted everything like this.In the face of life and death, everything seems so unimportant, like a feather on Mount Tai.

Accepted the past and future of the Gu family, accepted the father and the emperor.

From now on, she really only lived for Shen Yu.

Thinking of Shen Yu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, blood finally came to Gu Beiwang's face, and his indifferent expression finally cracked, revealing an unspeakable tenderness.

Gu Yuexi had a panoramic view of her son's expression, and finally smiled helplessly, with an imperceptible pampering in her smile, "Shen Yu should be in Yancheng by now."

Gu Beiwang didn't react, he still looked at his father.

He had been locked in the darkroom for so long, so he naturally didn't know what was going on outside.

Yancheng?That's a frontier fortress, when did the Shen family open a business there?Does his father object?Take the initiative to talk about Shen Yu's whereabouts.

Gu Yuexi thought for a while, but still said, "Yancheng is at war..."

Gu Beiwang stood up abruptly and looked at his father.

"What happened? There is a war ahead, what is he going to do?!"

Seeing her calm and eager son, Gu Yuexi sighed, "This is the imperial order."

Gu Beiwang only thought for a moment, then asked coldly, "Father, what are you hiding from me?" His eyes exuded a stern coldness.

"The Shen family knows about the two of you, and it happens that the battle ahead is tense, and the Shen family probably has their own arrangements." Gu Yuexi didn't tell the whole truth, and it can't be said that in order to separate the two of you, Xuan Ling and I made a plan to separate the other two. A man was transferred to the front line.

Gu Beiwang's beautiful brows frowned more and more, but he guessed the cause and effect of Gu Yuexi's two words that didn't match up.

He hurriedly said, "Father, take care of your health, my son will leave." He was in a hurry to go out.

Gu Yuexi quickly pulled him back, "Eat something before leaving, and then change clothes, don't worry about it for a while. Xuanling is also in Yancheng, don't worry."

My son was still wearing a pure white undershirt, his long hair was spread out in a mess, and his complexion, which hadn't seen the sun for many days, was a bit distressed. If it were someone else, this appearance would be called embarrassing, but this person is my son, Gu Yuexi. She is tall and straight, her eyebrows and eyes are still straight, and she is still so good-looking.

Gu Yuexi looked at her son dotingly, but Gu Beiwang was taken aback by him. He lowered his head and glanced at himself. He really shouldn't see that person like this. No matter how anxious he is right now, he can't stop things from happening.

When Gu Yuexi ordered people to prepare meals, he went to take a bath to wash away all the fatigue he had suffered today. With a towel covering his face, his mind was full of Shen Yu's face, that person's pair of burning peach blossom eyes, that person The gentleness of the person, the petty temper of the person, and the lifeless appearance of the person lying under him that was finally fixed in his mind, Gu Beiwang was suddenly very annoyed, and he slapped his hand heavily, and the large wooden bathtub that was fine When it was scattered, the ground was full of water in an instant.

"..." Gu Beiwang sat in the empty wooden barrel and was stunned for a moment, forgetting that his internal strength had recovered, and his subordinates didn't care about it.

Putting on the clothes and tying them up, he was that handsome young man again.

The author has something to say:

Not far from the end finally.
