III Jiangshan

Chapter 30

As soon as Gu Shuyan returned home, he saw Gu Heng sitting obliquely on the mahogany chair in the side hall, still holding a book in his hand.

"Why did you wake up so early?" Gu Shuyan frowned.

Gu Heng looked away from the book, looked sideways at him, and said indifferently: "Your court is quite early today!"

The servants of the Gu family have long been accustomed to the cold temperament of their eldest lady, even when facing their own biological father, they are not as close as the second son and third miss.

Gu Shuyan smiled wryly in silence, with a "difficult to describe" expression on his face.

He waved away his servants, sat next to Gu Heng, looked at Gu Heng's slightly pale face, and sighed: "It's midnight, is the high pavilion a place for drinking?"

Seeing Gu Heng's unmoved expression, he took the trouble to say: "If you want to drink a few cups, you can drink them warmly in your room, wouldn't it be good?"

Gu Heng's mood faded, and he obviously had no interest in continuing this topic with him, so he asked coolly, "In my room? Is there a starry sky?"

Gu Shuyan froze for a moment, and immediately understood what was going on.He clenched the corners of his mouth in pain, and said in a shy voice, "With the starry sky, can you see her?"

Gu Heng's cold eyes glowed with a faint amber halo, his voice was not loud, but he said without doubt: "She is in the sky."

Gu Shu was stunned for a while, before he managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Even if... Even if she is in the sky, is she willing to see you torture yourself like this?"

After saying this, he regretted it.Because of Gu Heng's words, a cold light swept over him, and while freezing his whole body, he still didn't forget to throw him a cool sentence: "You don't understand."

I don't understand!I don't understand?

Gu Shuyan really doesn't want to seriously argue with her: if it is serious, who is closer to the "her" in the sky?I'm afraid there are some break-ups, right?

He finally couldn't bear to see Gu Heng like this, suppressed the annoyance in his eyes, and said slowly, "Your Majesty didn't come early today."

That's why I went home so early.

Gu Heng's expression froze, and he hurriedly asked, "Why?"

Gu Shuyan was secretly bitter, thinking that the only thing you really care about is "her" and His Majesty's affairs, right?

"Your Majesty issued an edict, saying that the dragon's body is occasionally ill, and it can be recuperated in a few days." Gu Shuyan said truthfully.

Occasionally?How many days are you recuperating?

Gu Heng thought about the wording, maybe there is some know-how in it?

"What does the hospital say?" she asked.

"It is said that the head of the court and the capital of the deputy court serve in His Majesty's bedroom, and several empresses in the palace also serve in front of the imperial court." Gu Shuyan said.

Gu Heng pondered, is this a minor illness?Does it only need "rehabilitation for a few days"?

Gu Shuyan knew her well, so he told all he knew, saying: "It is said that your Majesty has been staying in Fengyi Palace for the past few days. Your Majesty has a greedy temperament, and often likes to favor new nobles who enter the palace... cough!"

As Gu Shuyan spoke, his expression was somewhat unnatural——

It was really embarrassing to say such words in front of a woman like Gu Heng.Yet it is also true.

"He hasn't stayed in Fengyi Palace for several years, right?" Gu Heng was much calmer than him.

Gu Shuyan coughed again in embarrassment, and said: "It seems so. These days, I'm afraid it's because of King Wu, he pays more attention to the virtuous concubine of Fengyi Palace."

Gu Heng sneered, wondering why it was for King Wu?It's just to win people's hearts.

Thinking of the foolish king trying his best to get her and cut off Yuan Youqi's thoughts, she couldn't stop thinking of Yuan Youqi's face.With that pained and helpless face because of his rejection and alienation, Gu Heng heard a faint sigh from the bottom of his heart.

I might make your baby sad, would you blame me?She asked the people in the sky silently.

She was very determined, and although her heart was suffering, her face remained calm, and she asked Gu Shuyan, "What is the disease, and what news do you have?"

She believed that with Gu Shuyan's wit and scheming, she would never come back home after only getting such a little news.

"Of course there is news, but it needs further confirmation." Gu Shuyan said.

"What disease is it?" Gu Heng asked.

"My heart is on fire." Gu Shuyan replied truthfully.

"My heart is burning..." Gu Heng chewed these words.

Gu Shuyan stared at her thoughtful expression, and couldn't help asking: "If this is really the disease, can you explain it?"

Gu Heng thought for a while and said: "This is a symptom of heat and dryness. That stupid gentleman is nearly fifty years old, and he is not good at taking care of himself. It is inevitable that his body will go from bad to worse. If he loses sense in the matter of the house, it will definitely affect the internal organs. It is natural to cause symptoms due to deficiency, heat and dryness."

Although Gu Shuyan felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the word "house. thing", he also felt that what Gu Heng said made sense.

The two of them didn't know that Gu Heng's analysis was exactly the judgment made by the Imperial Hospital after taking Wei Di's pulse.At that time, the head of the Tai Hospital earnestly persuaded Emperor Wei to "please take good care of yourself, Your Majesty".

Almost all the imperial physicians concluded that Emperor Wei had frequently stayed in Fengyi Palace these few days, and his lack of restraint in sex and affairs made his already poorly maintained body worse.Only Fan Lang, the deputy head of the Tai Hospital who stood respectfully with downcast eyes, snorted coldly in his heart when he heard this.

Just talk about Gu Heng and Gu Shuyan.

Gu Shuyan knew how powerful Gu Heng's medical skills were, so he naturally believed what she said.

However, what Gu Heng said next really surprised him——

"There is another possibility, that is...someone used poison."

Gu Heng spoke calmly, but Gu Shuyan was shocked for a moment, and then doubted: "Your Majesty's food and drink are all monitored for poison and tasted, not to mention the adults in the Imperial Hospital, how could..."

It is almost impossible to poison the food with the internal supervisor who detects the poison; with the medical masters of the Taiyuan Hospital, they will definitely be able to find out whether it is poison or not a disease!How could this be concealed?

No matter which one, it clearly points to it, and it will not be poisoned.

Gu Heng laughed, cruelly but carefreely, as if Emperor Wei's poisoning was something that made her very happy.

She curled her lips and looked at Gu Shuyan, and said leisurely: "What if this poison is not poison?"

Gu Shuyan didn't understand for a while, but she was dazzled by her bright and bright smile.

Gu Heng had insight into the subtleties, and then put away his smile, and said lightly: "A certain drug and another drug may be non-toxic, and even very beneficial to the body, but mixed together, they may be harmful. A deadly poison."

Gu Shuyan took a deep breath, and said in surprise: "The knowledge of medicine is so deep."

Gu Heng sneered: "Medicine and poison are the double-edged sword. The one who cures the disease is the doctor; the one who kills is the poison."

Gu Shuyan only felt that cold sweat was dripping down, and the clothes on his back were almost soaked.

He frowned, and said in a deep voice: "This matter must be investigated clearly. Especially the possible mastermind behind it, otherwise..."

Otherwise, it is likely to affect the overall plan.This is what he meant.

Gu Heng said clearly: "It may not be a bad thing."

She thought for a while, and said: "The person behind it is very likely to be inseparable from the Wei family."

"You mean... Fengyi Palace?" Gu Shuyan shuddered.

Gu Heng sneered: "Don't you forget, the matter of being brave and resolute back then."

"But... Didn't Wei Da kill the envoy of Ule to vent his anger?" Gu Shuyan was puzzled.

"How do you know, isn't that Uncle Wei's plan to protect himself in a hurry?" Gu Heng's voice was cold, as if he had uncovered all the tragedies of the past.

Gu Shuyan was still thinking about it, but Gu Heng changed the subject and asked, "How is the arrangement, that man?"

Gu Shuyan knew that what she was referring to was the old man from Yan Lai Palace, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry, the arrangements have been made properly. We just need to wait for someone to act, don't worry about not being able to use it."

Immediately, he hesitated, and said again: "Is this step really going to be taken? After all, he has been doing it for 28 years..."

Gu Heng's cold eyes turned to him, and his voice was also cold, "Don't worry, I will bear all my sins myself."

Gu Shuyan frowned when he heard the words, and said anxiously: "You know very well, I didn't mean that!"

"That's what I meant," Gu Heng interrupted him, and said, "You, and the Gu family, must not be implicated at all, so that I will have the face to see her again."

As she spoke, she changed the subject, and said: "In the current situation, only Yuan Er can make room for the Gu family to go straight to Qingyun in the future, without hindrance."

She looked at Gu Shuyan's face seriously, "Don't you remember your childhood ambitions?"

Gu Shuyan's chest felt hot, and the ambition of serving the country and the people and devoting himself to the people in his youth burned in his heart again after 20 years, which made his face involuntarily mixed with pain and heroism.

"Big Wei, it's time to change the world!" Gu Heng said solemnly.

Gu Shuyan's heart trembled, looking at Gu Heng's face, he was speechless for a while.

Gu Heng's plan, Gu Heng's plan for the future, he believed, he believed in everything.However, that will not be a future of peaceful transition, there will be blood, and it will be paved by many corpses...

Even, including Gu Heng's own.

Gu Heng looked back at him earnestly, his voice was so calm that people suddenly had the illusion of some kind of entrustment——

"When the new monarch is established, with you in the text, and the Wei family and the Qi family in the military, the politics of the Great Wei will be prosperous, and the people will be rich and happy. In time, the territory of the Great Wei will be wider and bigger. The Great Wei will be like this. The greatest empire in the world," she said.

Gu Shuyan's chest was turbulent.Gu Heng drew a magnificent picture scroll for him, he couldn't help standing up, adjusted his robe, and bowed deeply to Gu Heng.

For Gu Heng's wise plan, for Gu Heng's sacrifice, and for his own misunderstanding of Gu Heng.

Once upon a time, he thought that Gu Heng planned everything just to avenge his previous life.

If the woman he once loved so much can do everything for the one he loves and for the world, why doesn't he go all out?

Things in the world, if they are not broken, they will not stand.

To do something, but not to do something, a man stands between heaven and earth, he should do his part!

The author has something to say: Ah, what do you write in the little green characters?

I can't think of it for a while, so I just write Gu Heng, I love you~
