Sha Po Lang

As soon as Gu Yun's words fell to the ground, he felt that Chang Geng's pulse was a little faster. It was almost impossible to count the pulse condition. The wrist pinched by him was hot, and there seemed to be a volcano hidden under the pulse gate. It would erupt hysterically after a slight shock. To go out, it is necessary to break Chang Geng's meridians by an inch.

Gu Yun didn't expect that he had already been so tactful, and Chang Geng still had such a big reaction, and worried that there was something wrong with him, he stretched out his hand and lightly pressed Chang Geng's chest: "Come on, don't think about it!"

Chang Geng pulled his hand off and clasped it firmly in the palm of his hand. With a "squeaky" sound of joints, Gu Yun's eyelids twitched.

Chang Geng's face was like gold paper, his eyes were like blood, infinite phantoms flashed in front of his eyes, it was as if thousands of horses were ringing iron bells in his ears, monsters and shadows were running rampant, and a ur bone drank his blood. The heart-blood swelled up suddenly, and the thorns were all over the branches, and the heart-piercing pain was like a stick in the throat——

And at the end of the U'er bone, there is Gu Yun.

...is still beyond thousands of mountains and rivers.

Gu Yun was frightened for a moment, his lips moved slightly, but he didn't know how to continue.

At this moment, Chang Geng clasped Gu Yun's hand tightly with both hands, raised it to his chest, and seemed to let out a vague sob. He closed his eyes, and tremblingly branded his lips on Gu Yun's frozen cracked lips. on the back of the hand.

Although Gu Yun had speculated a little anxiously earlier, he did not expect this scene in advance. Chang Geng's scorching breath went up his cuff, his scalp exploded, and he was about to blurt out "Are you crazy?"

But Chang Geng suddenly pushed him away, stepped back half a foot, curled up, lowered his head, and vomited a mouthful of purple-black blood.

Gu Yun: "..."

All this happened as quickly as lightning, Gu Yun didn't get angry, he panicked, he was stunned and choked on the words stuck in his throat, so his throat hurt and he stayed where he was.

Chang Geng's face was almost ashamed, and when he spit out a mouthful of blood, his heart cleared up a lot, and his sanity gradually recovered. He tilted his head to avoid Gu Yun's hand that was about to come to help him, and said in a low voice: "Offend me!" The adoptive father is gone, if you want to beat or scold...cough, you can do it as you please."

Gu Yun took a deep breath, and the many complicated feelings in his heart made up a long speech comparable to "General Shen Ji Pingzhi's Quotations". He didn't dare to utter a single word, and he was so depressed that he thought: "I haven't asked the teacher to inquire about the crime, but he vomited blood first. Do I dare to speak?"

He bent down and picked up Chang Geng, and placed him on the small couch in the spacious carriage, suppressed his confusion, and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up, adjust your internal injury first."

Chang Geng closed his eyes obediently, and remained silent.

Gu Yun guarded him for a while, searched the carriage, but did not find a drop of wine, so he took down the cold-dispelling decoction on the small stove and drank it, the smell of ginger in it made his brain ache.

He used to think that Chang Geng might be a little confused, maybe he was influenced by the stupid thing he did after drinking that day, and he had some inappropriate thoughts. He thought about this child Huiji, and he would understand it with a little bit, who knows? He just poked lightly, before he started to click, Chang Geng himself missed it first!

How could this be?

Gu Yun gloomily glanced at Chang Geng who closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, with a fog of half understanding on his head, sat beside him and focused on worrying.

The ancients said, "Cultivate one's morality, make one's family safe and secure the world", Gu Yun didn't know if he hadn't cultivated well all his life, so that his family and the country were all in a mess, and he was so devastated that he was so troubled that he would die.

From the imperial palace to Andinghou's mansion, there are only a few steps. Even if the carriage is pulled by a turtle, it will only arrive in a moment.

As soon as Gu Yun got out of the car, a wooden bird flew towards him, landed on his shoulder impartially, tilted his head and stared at him vividly.

Suddenly, Gu Yun stretched out a hand from behind, and Chang Geng got out of the car quietly at some point, and caught the bird away.

His face was still ugly, but he had returned to his usual tranquility.

Chang Geng held the wooden bird in his hand, and was not in a hurry to open the letter to see whose letter it was. He just walked up to Gu Yun while the old housekeeper was packing the carriage, and said in a low voice, "If foster father feels awkward, I can move out, no It will be an eyesore in front of you, and I will never overstep the rules in the future."

The blood in those eyes faded away, Chang Geng's expression was a little cold, his brows were downcast, showing a kind of thoughtfulness as dead ashes.

Gu Yun stood there blankly for a while, there was really nothing he could do, so he turned and left without saying a word.

Ge Chen and Cao Chunhua didn't know what had happened the night before when they got up early in the morning. They were already waiting at the door, and they rushed up to meet them, but they saw that Gu Yun didn't say hello, and passed them by with a calm expression.

Chang Geng watched his back, his face was dark and unclear, a bit of bitterness was deeply hidden in his pupils, there seemed to be blood at the corner of his mouth, his face was actually more haggard than Gu Yun who had been kneeling all night.

Ge Chen: "Brother, what happened?"

Chang Geng just shook his head, and waited until Gu Yun's back could no longer be seen, then he retracted his gaze, stretched out his hand to open the wooden bird's lower abdomen, and took out a note from the middle.

I saw that the note said: "At the beginning of the first year, Marshal Gu escorted the Northern Man's son out of customs. He fell seriously ill, and the second elder brother of the family made a special trip from Taiyuan Mansion, and he will return in January."

Sign a "Chen" word.

The wooden bird didn't know how long it had been flying, and its wings were slightly worn.

What Chen Qingxu said was so endless that another person might not be able to understand it, so Chang Geng tapped the wooden bird on the back of the head just to be cautious.

The bird opened its iron beak, spewed out a cluster of small sparks, and burned the note in an instant.

Cao Chunhua asked cautiously: "Brother, I see that the wooden bird has frequently been in and out of the Hou Mansion recently. Are you looking for something?"

"Investigate an old case." Chang Geng said, "I have always felt that although his temperament has not changed since he arrived in the Northwest, his views on many things seem to have changed a lot. I thought it was the result of subtle influences on the ancient Silk Road in Loulan, but it does not seem to be the case. "

Ge Chen and Cao Chunhua looked at each other.

Chang Geng briefly recovered from the sense of loss just now, and whispered in an almost inaudible voice: "What happened on the way out from Beijiang?"

What made this Marquis Anding, who was wrapped up like a quilt, almost fall ill on the march, and even alarmed the Chen family in Taiyuan Prefecture?Did he meet something outside the pass... or did he know something?

Chang Geng suddenly said: "Xiao Cao, Ah Chen, can you two run errands for me?"

After Cao Chunhua left the mansion in a low-key manner, Chang Geng lived a life where the dragon never saw the end.

Gu Yun tossed and turned for a long time, originally wanted to find a day to have a good chat with Chang Geng, but was shocked to find that there was no one there!Chang Geng did not see him at all.

He had nothing to do all day long, and was too idle to think about it, so he didn't even take the medicine, and he was quiet even if he couldn't hear or see clearly.

At the same time, the court continued to stop.

First, Emperor Long'an wanted to restart the "Financial Order". As soon as it was announced, it was immediately received a joint letter from the two ministries of industry and households. Even the Ministry of War, which was cleaned by Emperor Long'an into his own little padded jacket, had inconsistent voices.

Li Feng ate the weight, determined to go his own way, and quickly fought back.

On February [-], the Minister of the Household Department was first read by Yu Shitai in a book "Accepting Bribes from Other Countries for Personal Gains". Later, during the thorough investigation, a series of bad things such as kickbacks and kickbacks by officials from various places were found out. The largest corruption and fraud case in Long'an years.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry is a bit like Uncle Guo. Although he has a heart for the country and the people, he does not have the courage to serve the country and the people. I no longer dare to go against the real dragon Nilin to mention the financial order.

On the tenth day of February, Gu Yun had been under house arrest in the Hou's Mansion for less than half a month. A black eagle quietly flew to the outside of the North Camp on the outskirts of Beijing, replaced the armor of the black eagle, and loaded it into Beijing overnight. Hou Fu.

Gu Yun also finally had the opportunity to meet the side of Chang Geng who avoided him like a snake.

Chang Geng brought the medicinal soup in front of Gu Yun, and the silence between the two reached an embarrassing level: "A black eagle is here."

Gu Yun nodded, picked up the medicine and drank it. Chang Geng had already prepared the silver needle. Seeing him put down the medicine bowl, he spread the needle flat in front of Gu Yun, and signaled with his eyes: "Is it okay?"

He was so distant and polite, which made Gu Yun even more at a loss.

Chang Geng no longer let Gu Yun lie on his lap presumptuously, he was like a strange doctor, he only gestured or tried to help, and he didn't even want to touch Gu Yun.

Gu Yun closed his eyes and rested his mind. As the effect of the medicine started to take effect, his hearing gradually recovered, and the surroundings became "noisy"—the sound of people talking in low voices when the people outside the house were sweeping the snow. The movement of rubbing against weapons... and even the rustling of Chang Geng's clothes while he was moving, all pierced into Gu Yun's ears. He has been deaf for more than ten days and is very uncomfortable.

Gu Yun held back his irritability, and seized the opportunity to ask: "Chang Geng, can you tell me why?"

Of course Chang Geng knew what he was asking, so he didn't say anything for a while.

Gu Yun: "Is it because...I drank too much that day and did something to you...uh..."

Chang Geng's hand trembled, and the needle that was about to fall paused in the air for a moment.

He was silent all the time, and Gu Yun felt really uncomfortable—no matter how much anger he received from Li Feng, he had a clear conscience, and he could look up to the world and face his conscience. I can't clap my hands.

If he hadn't done anything inappropriate himself, how could Chang Geng...

"No." Chang Geng suddenly replied calmly, "I was actually the one who disrespected my adoptive father that day."

Gu Yun: "..."

"There is no reason," Chang Geng gently pressed his head to prevent him from moving, and said in an unusually ordinary tone, "What is the reason for this kind of thing? Speaking of it, it's probably because I didn't love my mother or father when I was young." , no one has ever loved me except my adoptive father, so I must have had some unreasonable thoughts over time. You have never noticed it, and I didn't want to mention it to anyone, but I was so angry that day that I accidentally showed it."

Gu Yun felt that a head-sized stone fell from the sky, and hit his chest with a "boom", which made him breathless for a long time - he thought it was a momentary deviation of his true energy, but who knew it was Chen Nian chronic disease!

"You don't have to worry about the adoptive father, it's fine if you don't have this matter." Chang Geng said indifferently.

The stitches in his hands were not messed up, if it wasn't for his own admission before, Gu Yun would probably think that he was old and disrespectful and self-indulgent.

But how could this have never happened?

Gu Yun was about to go crazy, a feeling of premature aging emerged spontaneously, and it was the first time he realized that "A Flower in the Northwest" was no longer young and young—he began to wonder what young people were thinking in their hearts!

"The emperor asked me to go to court for a hearing these two days." Chang Geng suddenly changed the subject abruptly, and asked, "I heard that they quarreled all day long, leading to a big case of corruption and fraud, so I probably understand what the emperor thinks. Now, what does foster father plan to do?"

Gu Yun looked at him with a paralyzed face, not in the mood to discuss government affairs with him.

Chang Geng sighed slightly, reached out and took off Gu Yun's glazed mirror and put it aside, using this action to block Gu Yun's sight, with a resolute expression of "I won't tell you anything".

"I am willing to do anything for you. If you see me as annoying, I can keep you from seeing it. If you only want a filial and sensible son, I promise not to cross this line." Chang Geng said, "Yi Father, I am ashamed of this matter—don’t ask me what’s on my mind anymore, okay?”

Gu Yun's whole person is a big "not good".

Chang Geng began to remove the silver needle from his body, and asked calmly: "Then what do you want from me?"

Before Gu Yun could speak, he continued, "It's fine too."

If Chang Geng really pestered him as a criminal, Gu Yun would probably have called the three hundred generals of the Shanghou Mansion to pack him into the already built Yanbei Palace.

Cut the mess quickly with a sharp knife, and let him be cold for a year and a half, and nothing happened.

But Chang Geng decided to give him a countermeasure of "Even if you send me to the ends of the earth, I will be happy with it".

Gu Yun had a severe headache, and felt that this was a dog biting a bastard - he had nowhere to say it.

After holding back for a long while, Gu Yun asked, "Are you healed?"

Chang Geng nodded, and said "Mmm" with precious words like gold.

Gu Yun: "How did you do it?"

Chang Geng said frankly: "Through years of wishful thinking, I became obsessed with it for a while."

Gu Yun: "..."

It's even more disturbing.

While Chang Geng was talking, he packed up the silver needles, turned to the corner of the room, took out some tranquilizing powder, and asked calmly, "Shall I ask that Brother Xuanying to come in?"

"Your Highness," Gu Yun suddenly called out to him solemnly, "You are a man of wealth, a golden branch and a jade leaf, and you may become unspeakably valuable in the future. Others treat you like pearls and jade, and I also hope that Your Highness will treat you like a jewel no matter when and where you are." Be able to cherish yourself, don't belittle yourself, and don't belittle yourself."

Most of Chang Geng's face was buried in the shadows, and Ba Feng said without moving: "Well, don't worry, Lord Hou."

Gu Yun: "..."

Chang Geng stood there for a while, as if he was waiting to hear what he had to say. After waiting for a while, seeing that Gu Yun was speechless, he turned around and left without a sound.

Gu Yun leaned back hard, and heaved a sigh of relief.

He would rather Chang Geng quarrel with him like he did when he was a teenager, because he found that once this bastard gets up without desires or demands, he is almost invincible.

The despondent Gu Yun wandered around the room for a few times, and decided that he would never dream about soft fragrance and gentle jade, red sleeves adding fragrance and so on. It was too much.

At this moment, Xuan Ying, who had been waiting for a long time, knocked on the door and came in.

That black eagle probably flew all the way here. Although it had been washed briefly, it still had a haggard face and didn't even have time to shave its stubble.

"Marshal." Xuanying prostrated himself on the ground.

"Stop showing courtesy," Gu Yun forced himself to say, "What's going on, did He Ronghui ask you to come?"

Xuanying: "Yes!"

Gu Yun: "Bring me the letter."

With a flick of his wrist, he unfolded the letter brought by Xuanying, and quickly scanned it from the beginning. The words written by He Ronghui, the general captain of Xuanying, were extremely ugly, but the words were concise and to the point——

At the end of the month, Qiemo, a small country in the Western Regions, had a quarrel with Qiuci over border trade. Because the affairs of the countries in the Western Regions had always been regulated by themselves, it was inconvenient for the officers and soldiers of Daliang to intervene, so they did not pay much attention at first.

The Loulan Kingdom and these two countries happened to stand on a three-legged basis, and the Loulan King sent his brother as an envoy to mediate between them. Unexpectedly, the envoy was robbed on the border of the Kucha Kingdom and the entire army was wiped out.

At first I thought it was a sand bandit, but after the King of Loulan sent someone to conduct a thorough investigation, he found the sword emblem of the King of Qiuci's guards in the ruins, and immediately questioned the King of Qiuci, but the people of the Kingdom of Qiuci refused to admit it, and instead claimed that Loulan was partial and At the end, humiliate the messenger.Lou Lan sent His Royal Highness the Prince to go ahead with [-] light cavalry to Kucha to ask for an explanation. At first, the Kucha Kingdom closed its doors and refused to respond, then suddenly the gates of the city opened wide, and there were hundreds of 'sand tigers' inside. "

The so-called "sand tiger" is a kind of chariot that walks in the desert. It is extremely heavy and consumes a lot of purple gold, and the craftsmanship is extremely complicated.

Gu Yun had encountered it ten years ago when he was suppressing the rebellion in the Western Regions. At that time, the opponent had only three large sand tigers, which almost trapped half of his battalion of immature Xuanqi, but as far as he knew, those three or two sand tigers were already All the countries of the Western Regions gathered together all the belongings.

Gu Yun stood up suddenly, frowning tightly, fingers unconsciously pinching the bead string in his hand - this matter is so similar to the Southwest Rebellion, he asked in a low voice: "Is it a real sand tiger, not an empty shell?"

Xuanying spoke very sharply, and quickly replied: "Marshal, it is the real sand tiger, who defeated Loulan Qingqi in less than a cup of tea. The little prince almost died in battle, but was rescued by his soldiers desperately. That day, Loulan They sent people to our army garrison for help, but the wax paint had not been unpacked. The garrisons of all countries on the ancient Silk Road had received news one after another, and each of them was jittery. Other countries in the Western Regions, Tianzhu, and foreigners all assembled their troops in their garrisons. My lord came to the camp in person and asked me to wait for the 'drumming order'."

Gu Yun slapped the table hard: "Ridiculous."

Xuan Ying thought he was referring to the drum beating order, so he continued: "Our General He of Xuan Ying also said the same thing. The emperor grounded his feet, ordered the closed door to reflect, and ordered me to wait for the imperial decree—"
