Hearing Gu Yanqing's sudden words, Bai Yu turned to look at her in surprise.Bai Yu wondered if he heard it wrong.

To Bai Yu, Gu Yanqing was so young and promising, with a prominent family background and a general.Qingzhou might not even be able to accommodate the woman who wanted to bear him a child!

Why should she raise a child who has no blood relationship with herself? She really couldn't figure out why.

Could it be because she was angry with the princess...

Speaking of which, I heard that he and the princess have been married for almost a year, but the princess is not pregnant...

Could it be that the general is in poor health...

Thinking of this possibility, Bai Yu looked at Gu Yanqing with sympathy and pity.

General Gu did look thinner than the other soldiers.

"Look at me, can't I raise it?" Seeing her looking at him with a strange expression, Gu Yanqing felt a little hair on his back, cleared his throat, and opened his mouth somewhat unnaturally.

"Nothing" didn't want to be discovered by him, Bai Yu turned around and said silently again: "Have you decided yet?"

Hearing her asking himself, it took a while for Gu Yanqing to open his mouth cautiously: "...um." The voice was so soft that even Gu Yanqing himself could hardly hear it...

After Gu Yanqing finished that sentence, Bai Yu didn't speak again.Then there was silence, eerily quiet, only the sound of his own heartbeat could be heard.

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Yu suddenly turned around and stuffed the child in Gu Yanqing's arms. "Then from today onwards, this child will be given to you." After speaking, he turned and left.

Only Gu Yanqing and the child in his arms were left standing there dumbfounded.

***

one year later

Gu Yanqing dressed in court obedience and obeyed his father and retreated back.

The carriage stopped, and Gu Yanqing and her father jumped out of their own carriages respectively. At this time, she had been back from Qingzhou for a year,

Gu Yanqing was wearing a dark red official uniform, standing in front of the gate of Gu Mansion.The outside is silver armor, the collar is embroidered with some black silk thread patterns, the inside is cotton white fir, and a black jade symbolizing status hangs on the waist.Rough but simple, it was handed to her by her father on the night of her birthday.

She has a slender figure with a straight back, and she looks heroic, but there is an aura of intimacy between her eyebrows and eyes.Gu Yanqing looked at the plaque on the vermilion gate and sighed.Thinking of all the past, it feels like a lifetime away.

After going back that night with the child in her arms, she asked someone to prepare the tent again, but finally chose to hand the child to Bai Yu. She had so many things to do that she didn't have the energy to take care of the child.

But what she didn't expect was that her birthday was so important.

Before dawn on the second day, many eunuchs came from Beicheng, saying that they were teaching him some rules. Gu Yanqing was almost so frightened that his legs went weak when he looked at the thick book in their hands.

From that day on, he was locked in a tent.Do not see anyone.Li Shangru took care of all military affairs until the night of her birthday, when she was called to an old house in the woods to meet her father and the emperor...

So her birthday was simple but extraordinary, at least she will never forget it.

Half a month later, the matter in Qingzhou was almost resolved, Gu Yanqing returned to Beicheng with all the soldiers, and all other follow-up issues were handed over to Dong Qingchen, the newly appointed prefect of Qingzhou.

As soon as she returned to Beicheng, the story of the princess and her reconciliation was rumored for some reason. A few days later, Shangguan Wan'er moved out of Gu's residence and married the new right minister Li Shangru.Gu Yanqing was amazed by the speed, and almost thought he was hallucinating.

"Daddy~~" Suddenly a soft and sticky voice came out from the gate, and the melancholy on Gu Yanqing's face turned into joy when he heard the voice.

In the next second, a white and fat baby came out from the gate.Her eyebrows are slender, and her eyes twinkle like stars in the sky.The chubby little face has a small nose bridge and a small mouth.A head of black and beautiful hair is tied up into cute and playful temples, and there is always a sweet smile on the baby's fat little face.

Seeing Gu Yanqing standing at the door, he happily crawled out from the door.But it may be too young, and it took some effort to climb over that large threshold.But it came after all.

Seeing her antics, Gu Yanqing was relieved.I just brought her back, and I may have had vomiting and diarrhea for a few nights due to unacceptable reasons. Fortunately, I am a doctor, otherwise, her little life might have died long ago.

The little fat man who finally crawled over stumbled to Gu Yanqing, opened his small arms, raised his head to look at Gu Yanqing in front of him, and said coquettishly, "Daddy, hug~"

Hearing her soft voice, Gu Yanqing glanced at the people behind her, nodded at her, then knelt down on one knee, hugged his daughter into his arms and stood up.

Looking at her father whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Xiao Anan pursed her mouth and smacked Gu Yanqing's face, hugging her neck like a piggy.

Then he raised his head and called Gu Cheng sweetly at the back: "Grandpa~"

Seeing her movements, Gu Yanqing gave a doting smile, turned his head and complained to Gu Cheng who got off the carriage behind him, "Look, Dad, An An has gained a lot of weight, it must be that Mother secretly fed her again while I was not at home."

This nickname was re-given to her when he was in Qingzhou. Knowing that she was in poor health since childhood, Gu Yanqing hoped that she would grow up healthy and safe, and be happy every day, so he chose this nickname.

Her name was entered into the family tree with the consent of her father and mother after she came back from Qingzhou. According to the family rules, her father named her "Gu Qingya", hoping that she would be as noble and elegant as a clear spring in a high mountain. She is always innocent and lively like a child, living a simple and happy life every day.

Hearing her complaining about his wife again, Gu Cheng looked at Xiao An'an in her arms who secretly looked at him, pulled his serious face, showed a funny smile, and then refuted it back without giving any face.

"Children! It's normal to have a greedy mouth. You think everyone is like you who didn't eat anything when you were a child. Your mother's hair is almost graying."

But I was a little puzzled in my heart, obviously this little girl was not born to my daughter.Somehow, the eyebrows and eyes look more and more like her.But I think it's also fate, but the person in my daughter's heart has left, and my own father feels uncomfortable watching it.

Hearing him talk about "when I was a child" again, Gu Yanqing was used to holding Xiao An'an, then interrupted lightly, and began to change the subject: "Yes, yes, you are right about everything, let's go in, mother should be waiting for us to eat up"

Hearing what his daughter said, Gu Cheng looked at the door without giving up, and sighed inaudibly when he saw no one came out. "Let's go, go back to eat, don't make your mother wait"

Gu Yanqing stared at his expression, then looked down at Little An'an who was lying on his shoulder, and coughed a few times inadvertently, "Why didn't those two little bastards come to pick you up, Dad?" His face was quite smug and proud. Sure enough. It's better to be a girl, who knows how to cling to people.

Gu Cheng, who was a little ahead, heard his daughter laughing at him in a different way, and while she was not paying attention, he snatched Xiao An'an from her arms, and ran away with all his strength.

Gu Yanqing looked at the two who had almost disappeared and smiled helplessly.The face that was originally full of laughter turned cold in an instant.It was as if nothing had happened just now.

After a while, Gu Yanqing looked down at the sword tied around his waist, raised his eyes and saw that they had disappeared, turned around and prepared to return to his yard.

Seeing that the people behind were still following him, Gu Yanqing said softly, "You don't have to follow, go to the front hall to have dinner with Niuniu."

Bai Yu, who was a few steps away from her, looked at her back, thinking about her distraught appearance for more than a year, and said ruthlessly, "It's been more than a year, and she's married, so you still can't forget her?"

Bai Yu, who is 14 years old this year, has grown a little taller again. This year, her body has changed a lot. All of her facial features have grown, her skin has become much whiter, her chest is slightly protruding, and her waist has become more slender.The brows and eyes are full of innocence only for girls.

At that time, Gu Yanqing saw that she had no relatives, so he brought her back to take care of Xiao An'an. It was also at that time that he realized that her parents didn't know anything about medicine.It's just a means of survival.It is said that her father was originally a knight in the rivers and lakes.Later, he lived in seclusion because he was afraid of being chased and killed, but the sky didn't follow people's wishes.In the end, he was found and killed by his enemies.

Later, she was helpless and desperate. When she was young and ignorant, she listened to villains and worked for one person.Just using some herbs to make those who are already dying look like they were poisoned and died.Although Gu Yanqing knew the news, he didn't say anything.But the doctor's parents are still a little unhappy.Since then, she has been indifferent to her a lot.

Hearing her words, Gu Yanqing was silent and said in a cold voice, "You don't need to worry about these things, you just need to take care of Xiao An'an." After finishing speaking, he turned and left.

***

Less than five miles away from Gu's mansion, in an imposing mansion, in an elegant and unique courtyard, Shangguan Wan'er sat at the piano table, gently plucking the strings with her fingertips, listening The servants reported Gu Yanqing's movements to him every day.

"Princess, General Gu ran to the big tree outside your courtyard again last night, and didn't leave until early in the morning," said a man in black kneeling below with no expression on his face.

Hearing this news, Shangguan Wan'er frowned beautifully, sighed again for a while, waved her hand, and asked him to continue talking.

"One more thing. The princess asked the villain to secretly collect evidence of the prime minister's corruption and perverting the law. Recently, people have been finding it in advance. The subordinates have been investigating for a long time, and I don't know who did it."

"Oh~ can't even you find out?" Shangguan Wan'er was a little surprised when she heard the news.After all, the person I chose has high martial arts skills, and his ability to handle affairs can be said to be a leader.There was something he couldn't find out.This made Shangguan Wan'er a little puzzled, not knowing who dared to oppose her.

"Then do you know whether he is an enemy or a friend?"

"Subordinates are dull and have not been found out yet"

Seeing that he was sloppy to herself, Shangguan Wan'er suddenly slapped the table and stood up, holding back her anger and said: "I don't want to listen to such nonsense, I will know everything next time, if this matter can't be done, you Just raise your head and come see me.”

It has been more than a year, and I ordered people to observe secretly for a long time.It's a pity that Li Shangru is too cautious.No evidence could be found at all.Not long ago, I found some clues, and was preempted by someone.How could she not be angry?

The person I love has never complained about what I did.I don't know where I know that I often can't sleep in the middle of the night, and then no matter the wind or rain, I will appear on that tree every night to guard me.With such deep friendship, how could I have the heart to let her wait for me.

Hearing the princess getting angry, the man buried his head even lower. "Yes, the princess' subordinates will definitely do their best to find out about this matter."
