Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

Gu Yan looked at Cheng Wan, tried hard to put a smile on his face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Why didn't you leave?"

Cheng Wan approached Gu Yan, took Gu Yan's right hand, patiently and gently opened Gu Yan's clenched fist fingers, intertwined her fingers with Gu Yan's, and then led Gu Yan inside.

"If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. It's ugly."

Gu Yan instinctively lowered his head quickly and was led away by Cheng Wan like a frustrated little daughter-in-law.

Cheng Wan led Gu Yan to the back of Gu Yan's desk and pushed Gu Yan into a chair. Then Cheng Wan took off the official hat on her head and placed it on the table.

Finally, Cheng Wan stood in front of Gu Yan, picked up Gu Yan's arms and asked Gu Yan to wrap them around her waist.

Cheng Wan lowered her eyes and looked at Gu Yan, who was a little dumbfounded. She reached out and touched his head with gentle eyes, "I'll give you a hug. You can cry if you want."

Gu Yan's arm around Cheng Wan tightened unconsciously. He raised his head and stared at Cheng Wan intently, his eyes turning red and aqua bit by bit.

The next moment, he suddenly tightened his arms, circled Cheng Wan in front of him, then leaned his head on Cheng Wan's abdomen and closed his eyes.

Gu Yan hugged Cheng Wan's waist tightly and greedily sucked in the breath from Cheng Wan's body, as if he was inhaling some life-saving medicine.

Cheng Wan put one hand on the back of Gu Yan's neck and the other on the back of Gu Yan's head, stroking it from time to time.

Cheng Wan lowered his eyes and looked at Gu Yan's slightly trembling shoulders. Hearing the sobs that occasionally escaped Gu Yan's lips, Cheng Wan sighed silently and thought to herself, "Why is this so distressing?"

I don't know how long it took, until the sky had darkened and the study was dark, before Gu Yan finally let go of Cheng Wan's waist slightly.

"Are you feeling better?"

Cheng Wan moved. To be honest, she was a little tired after standing for so long.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Wan's move caused Gu Yan to immediately hug Cheng Wan tightly again, with urgency and uneasiness in his voice, "Don't leave."

Cheng Wan patted Gu Yan's shoulder and said warmly: "I won't leave, it's too dark. I'm going to light the candle. You let me go first."

Gu Yan let go of Cheng Wan's waist, but as if he couldn't leave Cheng Wan for a moment, he held Cheng Wan's hand and followed Cheng Wan closely.

Wherever Cheng Wan went, he followed.

Cheng Wan indulged him and didn't mind that Gu Yan was in the way. He allowed Gu Yan to hold one of her hands and use the other hand to light the candles on some of the candlesticks in the study.

"call!"

Cheng Wan blew out the fire folder and put it back in its place, then walked to the candlelight, turned around and looked up at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan's eyes and nose were red, and he looked at Cheng Wan helplessly, looking a little pitiful.

Cheng Wan "liberated" her hand from Gu Yan's hand, then stood on tiptoes to support Gu Yan's head, and gently kissed Gu Yan's eyelids.

"Okay, tell me what's going on."

Gu Yan lowered his head and pursed his lips.

Cheng Wan found a nearby chair to sit down and poured herself a cup of ice-cold tea.

"Don't drink that. I'll get someone to serve a pot of hot water."

Cheng Wan waved her hand and drank the tea in the cup, "It's okay, I happen to be a little warm."

Gu Yan walked up to Cheng Wan's feet and sat down on the floor regardless of appearance. Before Cheng Wan asked him to get up, he hugged Cheng Wan's calf and put his face lovingly on Cheng Wan's knee.

Cheng Wan looked at the top of Gu Yan's head, blinked twice, and then calmly sat upright again.

"Awan, I went to see the people sent by my grandfather today."

Cheng Wan said "hmm" to show that she was listening.

"I had sent people to sneak into the capital to secretly inquire about my grandfather and the others, and I was very afraid that something would happen to them.

Fortunately, I received news that my grandfather and others were just under supervision and everyone was safe.

Ah Wan, this... is already very good. "

"Yeah, that's pretty good."

"I dare not contact them for fear of causing trouble for them. I also know in my heart that my grandfather and the others are in the capital and I am in Liangzhou. In the future, we are likely to become each other's weaknesses.

Now King An's army is only three cities away from the capital, and the man on the dragon chair is preparing to abandon the capital and flee with the dignitaries of the capital.

Ah Wan, this is a good opportunity. I begged His Highness Prince Rui to send a team of elite soldiers to rescue my grandfather and the others during the chaos.

His Highness Prince Rui has already promised me, Ah Wan, His Highness Prince Rui has already promised me. "

Gu Yan hugged Cheng Wan's calf tightly and gently wiped her tears on Cheng Wan's knee.

"I was very happy on the way to see that person today, really very happy. I can't wait to know about my grandfather's current situation, and more specific current situation.

The man said that everything was fine with my grandfather and the others, but they were not free to act. Ah Wan, I was so happy after hearing this. I thought that if I wait a little longer, I can be reunited with them.

Then……"

Gu Yan closed his eyes, "Then the man gave me a letter, an autographed letter from my grandfather."

Cheng Wan stroked Gu Yan's head and asked softly: "What was written in the letter?"

Gu Yan stared blankly at the dancing candlelight in the distance, and said in a harsh voice: "My grandfather asked me to keep an eye on Prince Rui's next actions, and when the time comes, I will find an opportunity to kill Prince Rui and the Crown Prince."

"What?!" Cheng Wan's eyes widened.

Gu Yan's eyebrows were full of sinister birds of prey, and his voice was cold, "The letter said that the emperor is now the master of the world. For the sake of the people, we should help the emperor calm down the troubled times and restore peace to the world. Now that the emperor is weak, Prince An The army has been consumed a lot, King Rui will definitely not be content, and King Qin's rescue is the best excuse to send troops.

What my grandfather meant was for me to keep an eye on where King Rui will attack next. If he attacks King An, then wait a little longer until King Rui helps the emperor consume King An's army. If he attacks the emperor, then he will do it. Kill Prince Rui and the Crown Prince as soon as possible. "

A sarcastic smile appeared on Gu Yan's lips, and his eyes were dark, "My grandfather thought highly of me. Not only did he let me kill Prince Rui and the Crown Prince at the right time, he also asked me to try to control part of Liangzhou's army. , and then take the army to serve the current emperor."

Cheng Wan lowered his eyes, looked at the veined backs of Gu Yan's hands and slightly trembling shoulders, and pursed his lips tightly, "Are you sure this letter was written by your grandfather? Maybe someone else copied your grandfather's handwriting. "

Gu Yan let go of Cheng Wan's calf, changed his position, raised his head and looked at Cheng Wan.

Cheng Wan's heart tightened as she clearly saw the despair in Gu Yan's eyes.

"I also think that the letter was not written by my grandfather, but Ah Wan, that letter was really written by my grandfather, and it is indeed a letter that my grandfather could write."

Prince Rui and Mu Yao were by no means just simple superiors to Gu Yan.

At least at this stage, Gu Yan regards Prince Rui as his elder and Mu Yao as his best friend.

Prince Rui and Mu Yao indeed took good care of Gu Yan and were kind to Gu Yan.

But Gu Yan's grandfather wrote such a letter, which was to make Gu Yan a disloyal, unkind and ungrateful person.

Moreover, what kind of person is King Rui? Gu Yan can kill him wherever he wants, but in the end he will most likely end up destroying himself.

Even putting aside all this, there was a blood feud between Gu Yan and the current emperor. Gu Yan's grandfather actually intended to make Gu Yan work for the current emperor. This was a knife in Gu Yan's heart.

Cheng Wan sighed silently. She knew why Gu Yan was in so much pain. To a certain extent, this letter represented that Gu Yan's grandfather had abandoned him.

Cheng Wan couldn't bear to see Gu Yan like this and comforted him: "Even if the letter was really written by your grandfather, the content of the letter may not be his intention. He may have been threatened and had to write this letter for the sake of his family." letter."
