Contract Prince

Gu Yunjing originally wanted to say, "Why are you bothering? There is still a long way to go in the future."

But when she saw the tough expression on Suqiu's face, these words were swallowed in her throat, and she couldn't utter them again.Wei Wei nodded in thought and said: "Okay, since you insist on this, how can I have the heart to disobey your wishes. If you want to stay in the Hou's mansion, then you can stay in the Hou's mansion."

After Suqiu thanked her, she stood aside without making a sound, staring fixedly at Gu Zhong's memorial tablet.Gu Yunjing didn't speak any more, he lit three sticks of incense to pay homage to Gu Zhong, put the incense on after the worship, poured two more glasses of wine, took one in each hand, and said sadly: "This is Zuihuadiao, the last time you were alive. My favorite wine. I respect you for this first glass of wine!"

After finishing speaking, she spilled the wine in her left hand in front of Gu Zhong's tablet, raised the wine glass in her right hand and drank it down in one gulp.

"For so many years, you have worked tirelessly in the Hou's mansion, without complaint or regret, and never cared about it. You only want to focus on doing good things. This second glass of wine, I still respect you!"

Gu Yunjing repeated the previous action.

"You died in the line of duty for investigating the case! I still respect you for the third glass of wine!"

Gu Yunjing's body is strong and weak, and he is not very strong at drinking. Now that he has not recovered from his serious injury, he can't touch alcohol.Thinking of this, Xiao Muxue stopped in a low voice: "Yun Jing, drink less."

Her Royal Highness stretched out her hand, trying to take the wine glass from Gu Yunjing's hand, but she avoided it.

Gu Yunjing insisted: "Although I am not strong enough to drink, I will drink these three glasses of wine no matter what. He once said before his death that he most hopes to have a drink with me one day, so that he will not be drunk or return. Now it seems , this wish may not come true, so I have to drink the last three glasses of wine with him."

The voice revealed endless grief and desolation.

Xiao Muxue knew that the master and servant had a very deep relationship, Gu Yunjing's words had come to this point, how could she try to dissuade them?She just quietly accompanied her, watching her son-in-law drink.

Gu Yunjing's throat was gurgling, and the third glass of wine had already been drunk.Zui Hua Diao's alcohol was very strong, choking on her sore throat, and faint tears leaked from her eye sockets.In fact, she couldn't tell whether the tears were choked by the wine, shed for Gu Zhong, or both.

Gu Yunjing caressed her forehead and staggered two steps back. Seeing this, Xiao Muxue hurriedly helped her son-in-law.The princess said softly: "Yun Jing, since the worship is over, do you want to take a rest?"

Gu Yunjing waved his hand and said: "There is no need to rest, I can survive, and I want to stay here with Gu Zhong for a while. I was only concerned with investigating the case before, and never had a chance to listen to him. I have always known Gu Zhong There are many things you want to tell me."

She blamed herself very much, because she could no longer hear Gu Zhong's voice.If time can go back to the past, Gu Yunjing feels that no matter how busy she is, she will definitely take a night when the moon is in the sky, and have a good drink with Gu Zhong.

It's a pity that time is like water, and so many people have passed away. Once it has passed, how can it be possible to go back to the past.

Xiao Muxue gave up the idea of ​​persuading Gu Yunjing, she sighed, took out her handkerchief, and wiped the tears from Gu Yunjing's eyes and the wine stains from the corners of her mouth.

"Okay, then let's talk to him together."

Facing Gu Zhong's memorial tablet, Gu Yunjing said a lot, from trivial matters in life to major events in his life.She smiled awkwardly: "Why don't you have any good fortune, kid? You see how good Miss Suqiu is, how can you bear to leave her? If you leave, she will probably live in endless sorrow and pain in the future."

Maybe Gu Yunjing thought Suqiu was a little weaker, she liked Gu Zhong very much, and the death of the other party did bring her a big blow, but she would not live in the shadow of sadness all the time.Although Suqiu is a female class, she can also afford to let go, and even her mind is much more open-minded than men.

She knew that the deceased was dead, no matter how sad she was, it was useless.The most urgent and most useful approach at the moment is to inherit the unfulfilled ambition of the hero, catch the murderer, and avenge Gu Zhong and other innocent people who died tragically.

Suqiu also poured a few glasses of wine, sprinkled it on Gu Zhong's spirit, and said firmly: "Gu Zhong, you saved my life from the gangster that day, and from then on, I have you in my heart. The government has been in contact with you, and its affection for you has grown deeper. Although you and I have not been officially married, His Royal Highness Wang An and the concubine mentioned our marriage that day. In my heart, you are also my husband.

"You have passed away, I am extremely sad. But I will never be immersed in grief forever. From now on, I will replace you and take good care of the son-in-law."

From the time when Suqiu was willing to approach Lu Zhongzhi, Gu Yunjing saw that she was a very courageous woman, but she did not expect that now, at the critical moment of losing the one she loved, she could still maintain such an open-minded state of mind and peace of mind. Mind, this is really admirable.

Gu Yunjing turned around and took another deep look at Suqiu, her gaze was full of admiration.

The Hou Mansion held a grand funeral ceremony for Gu Zhong. Yu Qingyou and Shangguan Xiruo were originally guests, so there was no need to attend the first seven of the servants.But when they learned from Caiyue that Gu Zhong had been doing his best to protect Gu Yunjing, they didn't care about whether he was a servant, but directly treated him as a relative.

Because in the eyes of the mother and daughter, anyone who accompanied and took care of Gu Yunjing deserved their respect and gratitude.

So, led by Caiyue, Yu Qingyou's mother and daughter went to the hall to worship Gu Zhong.

Yu Qingyou didn't have any contact with Su Qiu at all, but during these days in the Hou Mansion, she had contact with her.Caiyue often boils medicine in the back kitchen, and Suqiu helps her.

The medicine that Yu Qingyou brought from Wangyou Valley would emit a very strong and pungent smell after boiling, but Suqiu never complained, and followed Caiyue silently, brewing the medicine for Gu Yunjing.

All these things made Yu Qingyou suddenly have a good impression of this extremely beautiful woman.Yu Qingyou walked up to Suqiu slowly, and said some words to her, these words were nothing more than persuading her to take care of herself, mourning and so on.

Out of sympathy, Shangguan Xiruo comforted Suqiu in a low voice.The mother and daughter also lit incense to pay homage to Gu Zhong.

Several people stayed in the hall for a long time, until the sun was setting, and it was time for dinner before leaving the hall.Element Qiu would continue to guard Gu Zhong's spirit, so she continued to stay inside.

After Yu Qingyou walked out of the hall, she sighed: "Hey, Gu Zhong, what a good child just disappeared. The world is impermanent."

The death of Gu Zhong made Gu Yunjing understand a lot about life immediately, and she felt emotional: "It is true. In fact, if you think about it carefully, life and death are just a moment. We are still alive in this second, who knows what will happen in the next second. What happened? Gu Zhong is so young, he still has many unfulfilled wishes, but in the end, each of these wishes turned into regrets. The most feared thing in life is not death, but leaving with regrets."

"So while we are alive, we must seize opportunities, enjoy ourselves in time, and reduce regrets." Gu Yunjing glanced at Xiao Muxue and continued, "I have always regarded it as my duty to assist His Highness King An to achieve great achievements through the ages. Over the past year, I have been working hard for this matter, and I have experienced life and death. I thought my dedication was great, but it was not until a few days ago, after the bombing incident, that I realized how selfish I was."

"At that time, I was seriously injured and was on the verge of death. My whole body was so painful that I was almost unconscious. The only thing that had a little bit of consciousness was my brain. When I was dying, what I thought of was not His Royal Highness An's eternal dominance, but Xue'er."

"At that time, I was thinking, I can't die, I must not die, because there are still many things I haven't done with her. We haven't seen snow together, ridden a horse, or admired plum blossoms. There are many beautiful and meaningful things. No time to do it."

"I thought these things would become regrets in my heart, but luckily, you guys saved my life in the end. Now I'm finally living again, and I have to be responsible for my life, responsible for Xueer, absolutely not I will waste my health at will."

After listening to Gu Yunjing's words, Yu Qingyou felt a lot of comfort in her heart, and she said: "People who have experienced life and death really have deep emotions. From what you mean, you want to go back to Wangyougu and take good care of your body, right? Your pulse condition is chaotic and your mood is restless, you must have many things entangled in your heart, under such circumstances, you really need to go back and recuperate."

"You will only make your health worse if you stay in the imperial city. Xiruo and I have heard about these major events in the court, and we know that it is your nature not to go back to Wangyou Valley if you don't find out why. Restoring your illness. In order to let you go back without distractions, I came to the imperial city with Xiruo specially, hoping to help you and let you try not to be tired."

"Now that Gu Zhong's first seven days have passed, you can choose a day to go back to Wangyou Valley, and leave the affairs here to me and Xi Ruo."

After listening to Caiyue, she quickly nodded and said that she couldn't agree more with Yu Qingyou's opinion. In fact, since Gu Yunjing vomited blood, Caiyue has been persuading her to go back to Wangyou to recuperate, but Gu Yunjing is stubborn by nature, no matter how Caiyue persuades her , also to no avail.

She knew that she was humble, so she couldn't say anything more.Therefore, I specifically asked Yu Qingyou in the letter to persuade Gu Yunjing to return to Wangyou Valley.In fact, there was no need for Caiyue to ask, after Yu Qingyou saw Gu Yunjing's body, she would no longer want her to stay in the imperial city and continue to work hard.

It's just that Yu Qingyou hasn't been able to find a suitable reason to persuade Gu Yunjing in the past few days. Gu Yunjing's emotion just now inadvertently gave her a step forward in what she was about to say, so she naturally had to follow the step And down.

Gu Yunjing lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then shook her head: "Master, I'm afraid you misunderstood me. I mean, I will pay attention to my physical condition while investigating the case in the future, and I won't be the same as before. I am busy every day and forget to take my medicine, so I have to squeeze out free time to do something meaningful with Xueer. It’s not like I’m going back to Wangyou Valley now.”
