I was Idle and Cool Chapter 207: The past and the past
The emperor is gone.
The concubine is gone.
In the past, the majestic and solemn palace that dominated the world suddenly seemed to be a silent city of death.
There are many palaces, and there are clearly people, but no one dares to come out.
In Zhaoyang Hall, there is a strong **** smell.
Outside the Zhaoyang Palace, the sky was still bright, and the fog dispersed, letting the golden glazed tiles on the Imperial City Palace shine in the sunlight, shimmering with light.
Lu Jinxi was held by Gu Juefei and walked out.
She heard him ask: "You don't want to ask me, why did you have to design her to enter the palace?"
So Lu Jinxi stopped for a while, turned around and asked him, "Why?"
Gu Juefei still had unwiped blood on his cheeks, and a little on his neck.
She reached out and wiped it off, only to find it was half dry and could not be wiped clean.
Gu Juefei held her hand and raised her clear eyes, as if hiding a bit of silence, but in the end he slowly said: "I said I was good for her, would you believe me? The family's family has gradually declined. In the battle of Hanshan Pass, the Xue family lost the pillar of Xue Kuang again. There is no one family that can keep pace with the Wei family in the court. The family will plummet from now on, and will never be able to regain its former glory. And the Gu family will also be implicated. The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it, not to mention in this ever-changing court situation? Not only Gu Juefei and Wei Yi, but also the backbone of the two Gu Wei schools. No one is qualified to act willfully..."
It's just that Wei Yi didn't want to enter the palace back then.
In the end, he never refuted every word she said just now. Because he knew that those pungent and biting words were not at all untrue.
He is indeed vicious and cold-blooded, and he cares about the world, but he may not be considered a good kind.
Wei Yi is ambitious and never a simple person.
If she dares to send someone to the Grand Master's Mansion to bring Lu Jinxi over, she must have a plan to threaten her by holding her hostage. If Lu Jinxi hadn't been alert and grabbed the dagger in his hand, who would have thrown the dagger right now...
Not yet known.
If he was really moved by her promise of "holding the emperor and commanding the princes", I'm afraid that when the time is right in the future, the person who really "holds the emperor and commands the princes" may not be his Gu Juefei.
Weiyi——
It's not that he can't stay, but he doesn't dare to stay.
What's more, there's no harm in other than that.
There is another Xue Tingzhi outside.
Xue Kuang's letter has clearly called Xiao Che a "pseudo-emperor". Since he dares to do this one after another shocking event today, he naturally prepares a method of advancing and retreating with both hands. to the point that he would fall into a situation where he was attacked by the enemy on his back.
Gu Juefei let out a sigh of relief, looking a little tired.
Lu Jinxi didn't ask any more questions.
The two of them held hands together, and they were both slightly chilled by the wind on the palace road.
The heavy palace gates, the guards, and the swords and halberds all over the eyes made Lu Jinxi aware of a severe cold that never left.
Although winter is gone, spring is coming.
She pondered silently, thinking in a trance that Wei Yi's letter to Gu Juefei that day contained those three words, "I hate you".
So I don't know why, I suddenly smiled.
But she didn't ask him what he was doing today or what he planned to do in the future. She just walked with him silently.
Although there were countless guards guarding them along the way, no one came out to stop them half a step.
Just like this, I went from the inner court to the palace gate.
But when they went out of the Tai Chi gate, they all saw the old man standing outside the Tai Chi gate.
The heavy first-grade crane official robe was pressed against his skinny body, and the thick color contrasted with the white hair on his head and the snow-white beard on his chin.
It's the old lady Fu Weibing.
He seems to already know what kind of turmoil has happened in the nine-layered palace behind this gate, and he can also see what kind of mystery the guards who are strictly guarding at this moment have revealed.
In all counts, he is older than Gu Chengqian, but he pays attention to maintenance on weekdays, and since Gu Chengqian has been suffering from illness all the year round, he does not look very old.
Only at this moment, standing here, everyone can see the old state.
When he saw him, Gu Juefei's footsteps stopped quietly.
An old man and a young man look at each other.
After a long time, Wei Binggan laughed. The words seemed to be extremely admirable, and he only sighed: "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the future generations are terrifying! Seventeen years ago, the palace changed, and your father forced to kill the old man's sister; ten Six years later, his son forced to kill the old man's beloved daughter! Great, great!"
Like?
Clearly mockery.
It's just that this old man of the three dynasties hid his full of resentment and sadness in this laughter, so that others couldn't tell his true emotions.
His old and penetrating eyes fell from Gu Juefei's body to Lu Jinxi's body, and he seemed to sigh at God's teasing of people's fate.
Lu Jinxi is not familiar with this old lady and doesn't know what to say.
Gu Juefei was silent for a long time when he heard the words, and finally he bowed and thanked him in a low voice: "Master Taifu is wrong. You are old, and I wish you my condolences."
After he finished speaking, he didn't look at Wei Binggan again and walked past him.
Lu Jinxi naturally followed.
Only after she had gone far away, she couldn't hold back, turned her head back, and cast a distant gaze at the old figure standing silently in front of the forbidden palace.
Wei Bingqian stood firm.
As if he hadn't spoken to Gu Juefei before, and as if he had never said goodbye to his relatives twice, and the white-haired man sent the black-haired man.
The man stood there like a permanent statue.
So Lu Jinxi suddenly realized something: just like Gu Chengqian, who was calm even when he reached the end of his life, this is an old man who knew the fate of his life. No matter how big the accident is, even if the heart is grief-stricken, it's just so helpless and calmly faced...
On the bustling streets of the past, there was not a single pedestrian.
She and Gu Juefei walked back slowly, from Changshun Street, which was blocked by Fang Shaoxing and Liu Jin, to the entrance of Taishifu.
The hanging white silk has not been removed, and the door is still full of silence.
Gu Juefei watched from a distance and slowly stopped, only to feel that the white eyes were really dazzling. He blinked, his eyes showing a dash of loneliness.
Looking back at Lu Jinxi, she finally asked her, "Are you afraid?"
What are you afraid of?
Are you afraid of the upcoming, unknown, or simply afraid of him?
For a while, Lu Jinxi felt that the two people on the wedding night were upside down.
So she stretched out her hand, wrapped around his firm waist, put her head on his chest, listened to his steady and powerful heartbeat, and smiled: "Don't be afraid, you still have me."
