The Words of the Number One

When I returned to Chengguangjun's mansion, Ding Sheng met me at the door. He said that Young Master Ji Yu was in Xueming Pavilion with Cheng Guangjun at this time, and told me to go directly to Xueming Pavilion to meet them.

I'm a little surprised that Ji Yu doesn't often go to Xueming Pavilion. Ding Sheng led me to Xueming Pavilion along the winding gravel road in the mansion, and took me into the reception hall of Xueming Pavilion. There Ji Yu was sitting in the hall talking to Shen Baiwu, and he said with a crooked smile, "The feng shui of Xueming Pavilion is good, otherwise I will help you set up a formation here, and you won't need guards. Ding Sheng, what do you say?" Woolen cloth?"

Ding Sheng had just entered the door and was called before he was notified. He still maintained a bowing posture, and he was a little embarrassed to be silent. Then he said: "Qimen Formation often needs to be sacrificed...after all...it is not the right way."

Shen Baiwu glanced at Ji Yu, and said coldly: "You just like these unworthy things."

Seeing me walking in with Ding Sheng, Ji Yu stopped the topic just now and asked me how the result was today. I replied: "As you expected. The king of Zhao agreed to meet with the envoy of Fan Guo. The meeting must be held in secret, and the promise will be made only after the meeting."

Ji Yu smiled slightly, rubbed her thumb and index finger, and said, "I knew you wouldn't lose."

Where is it that I won't lose, he has already arranged it carefully to this point, in fact, he won't lose.

Ji Yu looked at Shen Baiwu in a blink of an eye, and said, "Your younger brother will get a third of Wu's land, and he will become famous and gain a foothold. I have never seen a better brother than you."

"That's because it's in your interest. Now the emperor of Song is under pressure and has been secretly supporting the growth of Wu in order to break the situation. If Yu is annexed by Wu, it will form a situation where Wu and Song are fighting for hegemony. Zhou put Song Guo restrained him, but he didn't expect that you dragged Fan Guo into the water and then came to instigate Zhao Guo, and stabbed him in the back. One is prosperous, the other is damaged, and the Wu State is destroyed. Zhou Tianzi's vitality will be greatly injured."

Shen Baiwu's tone was a little mocking, he paused and said: "My father's nearly ten years of business have been destroyed, Ji Yu, you are ruthless."

I sneaked a peek and saw Ding Sheng, who was guarding the door, his eyes were full of anger, and he was holding the sword in his hand tightly.

"Since Ah Zhi succeeded, I naturally want to reward him." Ji Yu's voice pulled my eyes back, he stood up from his seat, walked in front of me, his eyes slowly darkened, his emotions were unpredictable. He looked at me like this for a long time and it seemed like it was only a moment, then he laughed again.

"Ah Zhi, from now on, you are Cheng Guangjun Shen Baiwu's person. He is a much better master than me." He said so, but there was no smile in his eyes.

What is he saying?

I am from Shen Baiwu, what does it mean?

I was stunned for a moment, then I shifted my gaze from his face to Shen Baiwu, who looked at me calmly, neither surprised nor denied.

I suddenly remembered that Ji Yu said that Cheng Guangjun was willing to help him because they made a deal.

It turns out that this deal is mine.

It turned out that he sent me to Shen Baiwu.

I was silent for a moment, then smiled and saluted Ji Yu: "Thank you, my lord."

In fact, I should have thought about it. When Ji Yu came to visit me that day, his attitude was a little subtle, but I didn't think about it. I won't be of much use after this matter is over, Shen Baiwu is the best place to go, he knows that Ji Yu has more secrets than me, Ji Yu won't worry about me revealing the secrets to him. Ji Yu didn't kill me, probably considered benevolence and righteousness.

It's just that when the truth came out, I didn't know what it felt like for a while.

I didn't expect it to be like this in the end, and it was given to others as an item.

I know this person I like, his tenderness towards people has always been half-truth and half-fake, he is good at this kind of untouchable ambiguity, when he withdraws, he is clean and clean. In the final analysis, love is not ranked in his heart. I kept telling myself to be calm and sober, not to have too high expectations for Ji Yu, and not to be flattered just because he was kind to me.

Even so, my expectations were too high.

I calmly sent Ji Yu to the gate of Xueming Pavilion. Zi Kou had already packed my luggage and brought me there. She looked at me with watery eyes, and left with Ji Yu before she had time to say anything. I saluted and watched them go, which I thought was decent.

I don't know what he will do in the future, but it will be fine for the envoy of Fan Guo to come forward for him.

But this has nothing to do with me.

Ding Sheng took me to my room, he said that Shen Baiwu asked Ji Yu for me, and I came here as Shen Baiwu's first-class envoy, the room is next to Shen Baiwu, although the environment is not big, it is very good.

He was originally a person who was not good at words, but he racked his brains to say more, as if he wanted to comfort me.

Holding my luggage, I laughed helplessly and said, "Gu Ling, you don't have to pity me."

Ding Sheng's footsteps stopped, and he slowly turned back to look at me stiffly, with the light of the lantern reflected in his eyes, he was uncertain.

Seeing him like this, I said, "So you are really Gu Ling."

He really couldn't hide the matter, and he got out of it as soon as he cheated.

The panic on Ding Sheng's face turned into surprise, and then slowly sank down. He looked anxiously at the burning candles in Shen Baiwu's room and then at me: "You... When did you know?"

"You have always held the sword in your right hand, but at the banquet of Princess Yongchang, you jumped out to protect Ji Yu, and subconsciously held the sword in your left hand to fight Xu Zihuan. I think you were originally left-handed but pretended to be right-handed, and compared to Shen Baiwu, I think you are more I'm worried about Ji Yu. Just now they were talking about the emperor, and you didn't look very good. Based on the above, I guess you are Gu Ling after disguise."

Gu Ling's face became darker when he heard this, he pulled me aside and said in a low voice: "Don't tell Shen Baiwu and Ji Yu. I didn't come to take Ji Yu back, and the emperor didn't know, I was just to get close to Shen Baiwu...I just I want to know what happened to Ji Yu in Yan Country. Shen Baiwu was with Ji Yu all those years, so he must know."

He poured out everything, so I asked him: "Since that's the case, how do you ask Shen Baiwu? Will he tell you?"

Gu Ling was silent for a while, then sighed, "I... I don't know either."

The moon was dark and the wind was high, the two of us who were also abandoned by Ji Yu were sitting in the pavilion, Gu Ling seemed to be holding back for a long time. After I poked him, he relaxed and said, "Seeing how powerful you are these days, Ji Yu relies on you again. Fortunately, I didn't kill you at that time."

This person can really chat, and Ji Yu is completely two extremes.

"Although I don't hold any grudges, it's better not to remind me that you tortured me. After that, I will continue to pretend that I don't know your identity, and you can continue to do what you want to do." After a pause, I still He said, "But Gu Ling, why are you doing this? Ji Yu has changed if he has changed. If he killed your brother, you will never go back. Even if you know what happened in Yan Country, what's the point?"

Gu Ling shook his head, he was stunned for a while under the dim moonlight, and then smiled wryly: "Miss Ah Zhi, you don't understand."

He is not a person who is good at burying stories in his heart. After a moment of silence, he began to tell his story.

He and his elder brother Gu Qi were originally the sons of criminal officials, and their clan was killed. At that time, the two of them were still young, and the emperor pardoned them both because he couldn't bear the death of innocent people. At that time, the ministers were worried that they would retaliate when they grew up, but the emperor tried his best to put them in the palace to raise them. Therefore, both Gu Ling and Gu Qi were very grateful to the emperor, and vowed to serve the emperor for the rest of their lives and live up to this trust.

Gu Ling and Gu Qi worked as companions in the palace, and grew up with Ji Yu, his elder brother Ji Li and sister Ji Le.

"Ji Yu is the youngest, even if he has been at odds with the emperor all year round, the prince and the princess are also protecting him, let him do whatever he likes. After a long time, he will become a bit willful and dare to make troubles. I always clean up the mess for him and get punished for him."

He said that Ji Yu always thinks he is stupid, not only him, Ji Yu also thinks Gu Qi and the two Highnesses are stupid. Ji Yu also often said bad things about the emperor, and they never believed that they had a bad relationship, so Ji Yu was always very angry, and said that they were too stupid to say it didn't make sense.

"Then he will let out a long sigh, saying that there is no other way but to wait for him to protect us in the future." Gu Ling slowly relaxed as he spoke, his eyes slowly showing tenderness.

But Ji Yu doesn't dislike his marriage partner, Xin Ran, the daughter of Grand Tutor Xin, who is stupid, and always takes good care of her.

He and Ji Yu are the closest in age and grew up together, so they are usually very close. Although Ji Yu often made trouble for him, she never let others bully him. Anyone who dares to point out Gu Ling's background will be punished by Ji Yu. After so many years, to him, Ji Yu, Ji Li, Ji Le, and the Son of Heaven are all his family members just like Gu Qi.

But now, only Tian Zi and Ji Yu are left.

But Ji Yu, who said he wanted to protect them, poisoned his brother Gu Qi to death.

Gu Ling said that he knew Ji Yu's personality, and Ji Yu had a very clear love and hate. When Gu Qi accidentally killed Ji Li, he thought that Ji Yu would definitely not let Gu Qi go. In fact, Gu Qi was also very sad at that time, originally thought of committing suicide but was stopped by the emperor.

Ji Li is to Gu Qi like Ji Yu is to Gu Ling, he is his best friend and relative.

It's just that he still had a little delusion at the time, that so many people had died, Ji Yu might not be able to bear to lose Gu Qi again. But in the end, Ji Yu was very decisive, and she was also very decisive in leaving, without even saying a word to Gu Ling.

This is the fundamental reason why he has been chasing Ji Yu for so many years.

"No matter how Ji Yu changes, he is still my friend and relative. I have lost so many important people. He can give up on me, but I can't give up on him." Gu Ling said softly.

He is obviously a tall and heroic man with unparalleled swordsmanship. But the whole family is dead, there are no friends, and I am alone. At this moment, the moonlight was shining all over his body, and he lowered his eyes and smiled wryly, as if he was the loneliest person in the world.

I lowered my eyes and said nothing, then smiled and said: "You said Ji Yu is a person who can distinguish between likes and dislikes, do you think Ji Yu hates you now?"

"...Really." Gu Ling sighed.

You haven't seen what Ji Yu looks like to someone he really hates.

If Ji Yu really tells you the truth, you know how he was tortured in Yan State, and how his sister Ji Le died, it will probably be more painful than it is now.

Haven't you ever thought that this is why Ji Yu refuses to tell you the truth? Just like you said, your wayward and clever "brother" Ji Yu always gives you trouble, but always wants to protect you.

Although he broke with you, he still wants to protect you.
