Gu Heng thought about it a few times, and finally asked the boy, "What's your name?"

When the servant heard such a question, his face showed a little surprise, "Master Heng, why don't you even remember the name of the servant?"

Gu Heng felt something was wrong, "Should I remember your name?"

The little servant turned his mouth away, weeping, "Master Heng, don't play tricks on this servant, this servant will die of grief."

This boy was only in his teens, and in Gu Heng's eyes, he was just a child. Seeing his simple mind, he coaxed him a few words: "Okay, my lord, I feel very uncomfortable, I just can't remember it for a while."

"Master Heng is hot, I'm afraid he's burned his brain out?" The servant stretched out his hand to test the temperature of Gu Heng's forehead.

Gu Heng let him touch it, and then avoided it without any trace, "Xu Shi, what's your name?"

Seeing that Gu Heng didn't really play tricks on himself, the boy saw that his mournful expression just now turned into worry in an instant, "My servant's name is Shen Yu, Mr. Heng is so sick, it's a pity that there is no doctor around, and he can only be healed at Changting Hou's mansion." gone."

Marquis Changting, Gu Heng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this familiar name.

"Where am I?" Gu Heng struggled to sit up, Shen Yu hurriedly supported his upper body, "Mr. Heng, this is the Qingya official post, and it is only two days away from the capital, you can take a rest before going to bed." It’s not too late to hurry.”

Gu Heng nodded and looked around, feeling a little more cordial for no reason.

This Qingya official post was supervised by him when he became an official at the beginning of the year. It was originally for the convenience of students who went to Beijing to take the exam, but now he let himself live there.Only when I actually lived in did I feel that the place is really shabby, and the wear and tear is serious, even the corners of the table are scratched.

Shen Yu brought another cup of cold tea and waited for Gu Heng to drink it, "This place is not comparable to our hometown in Changting County, even the fast food in Hanshan Temple, Mr. Heng, you are a young man from the Hou's mansion anyway. Master, let those snobbish eyes act like this!"

"What's wrong?" Gu Heng heard the voice, "Does anyone know what I'm here?"

Shen Yu twitched the corners of her mouth indignantly, "Who else would know? It's the postman in the official post. What he left at noon today is cold food leftovers. The slave is so angry that he wants to argue with them. Angry, what did you say that the Changting Marquis Mansion has fallen, and now the official inn can accommodate you? It’s not bad. If you want to live in a good place and eat good food, you have to spend your own money to find an inn! Listen, what are you talking about? I want to stay in an inn , but it’s not Mr. Lu Taiyuan Heng, you are sick again..."

Hearing this, Gu Heng felt a lot of doubts in his heart, as if something was different from what he imagined.

If he was a felon who escaped from the Dali Temple by stealing the golden cicada, how could he stay in the official post like a normal person without hiding his whereabouts at all?

But if not, who cleared him of the crime?Could it be that Wei Minghuan was unwilling to let the fourth prince go, and insisted on punishing Wei Mingkai for his crimes?

I had the precepts from my ancestors early on, not to kill each other by blood relatives and brothers. Even the other princes who failed to seize the heirloom in the early years, they just lived a rich and worry-free life as idle princes.

Is it possible that Wei Minghuan will violate the ancestral precepts and put the fourth prince to death?

Gu Hengsi thought about it, and even his face couldn't help but look difficult.

As if Shen Yu didn't realize it, he still complained, "No matter how bad our Changting Hou Mansion is, it's still a serious duke's house. I think half of the Wei Dynasty was brought down by our ancestors of the Gu family. Yes, even if His Majesty can't reuse it now, isn't there a time when it will be used again in the future? Everyone is just a watchdog of the official post, and they don't pay attention to the majestic century-old family?"

"Forget it, Shen Yu, don't talk about it." Gu Heng signaled the little servant in front of him to shut up, his mind was in a mess and he still couldn't figure out the current situation.

Seeing that Gu Heng looked worried, Shen Yu also stopped talking, but after a while, he muttered again: "If the son of the son hadn't been involved in the battle for the throne with all his heart, the Gu family would not have fallen so far. The military power has been withdrawn these years. There is almost no place to stand above the court. Our Changting Hou Mansion is now... everyone can be bullied, alas!"

King and loser.

Gu Heng thought of the future outcome of the Gu family from the moment Wei Mingkai's rebellion happened. If he wants to make a comeback, he can only hide his strength and bide his time, and wait for Wei Minghuan to find a turning point after a hundred years.

As for why he is so single-mindedly involved in the struggle for the title, how can he decide it alone?It's just because of the interests of many parties, for the sake of the family, and as a legitimate son, he has no choice but to do it.

In fact, if he could choose freely, he would rather not be in the team, even if he had to be in the team, Wei Minghuan would be the first choice.This person is intelligent and fierce, with a long-term vision. Working with him will only get twice the result with half the effort.

Thinking of everything in the past, Gu Heng couldn't help feeling emotional, "Shen Yu, how is the Fourth Highness doing now?"

Shen Yu was stunned subconsciously, "Young Master Heng, you are really confused, Your Majesty is not married yet, where is the Fourth Highness?"

Gu Heng was also stunned when he heard this, "What does it mean to be unmarried? The new emperor has ascended the throne?"

It can't be so fast, he has only been out of Dali Temple for a long time, even if he is unconscious, it will take at most a day or two.It stands to reason that even if His Majesty wants to establish a reserve, it will take ten days and a half months for the decree to be issued. His illness has a record in the Taiyuan Hospital. Gu Heng has paid close attention to it before, so it will take half a year. Unless Wei Minghuan forces the palace to rebel, he will not May become emperor so soon.

If what Shen Yu said is true, then this mad dog is a bit bolder.With his ruthless temperament, how can Wei Mingkai survive?

Gu Heng sighed, and was about to close his eyes and calm his mind when he heard Shen Yu replying to him, "Young Master Heng, don't talk nonsense, Your Majesty has been in power for six years, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, where is the new emperor? Such words, If the arrogant Yi Cheng listens to it, I'm afraid he will spread rumors and make trouble, which may even implicate the Marquis."

"Six years in office?" Gu Heng grasped a key word, suddenly opened his eyes, and stared straight at Shen Yu.

No matter how you hear this, it feels wrong.

"Yes." Shen Yu didn't feel wrong, "Speaking of which, Mr. Heng, have you forgotten what the old lady told you to go back to the capital?"

Gu Heng shook his head.

Shen Yu said: "Let me tell you my love, Mr. Heng is seriously ill, and he doesn't remember anything."

"Say marriage to me?" Gu Heng is indeed not young. In the past ten years with the fourth prince, he was often single. Two years ago, he even offered him a few beauties, but he declined them all.

Now that the dust has settled, it's normal for the family to say goodbye to him, but my father doesn't have that much time to spare, as for the old lady...

wrong!His mother passed away more than ten years ago, and the Gu family has never heard of the old lady.

He is the only legitimate son of his father, and he has two elder brothers who were concubine sons born to his father in the early years. Because his mother is generous, he puts the two elder brothers under his name and raises them as legitimate sons together, but in fact Well, he is the only one in the mansion who is called the first son, and that is still a collateral title.

As far as the Marquis of Changting is concerned, everyone only calls him Young Master, and the other heirs will add a name in front of it. For example, his eldest brother Gu Yu is called Young Master Yu, and his second brother Gu Zhuo is called Young Master Zhuo.

This is the rule, the rule of a century-old family for a long time.

There is definitely no slave who doesn't have good eyesight to call him Mr. Heng, that is because he doesn't understand the rules and etiquette.

Just looking at the entire capital city, when people mention Mr. Gu, they only refer to him, and they will never be confused with other heirs of the Gu family.

In vain, Gu Heng has been obsessed with conspiracy and struggle for more than ten years, but he never even thought of such an obvious flaw!

"Who the hell are you?" Gu Heng immediately became wary of Shen Yu, if this person is really from the Gu family of the Marquis of Changting, even if he is from the old Changting County, he will definitely not understand the rules.

Shen Yu was taken aback by Gu Heng's sharp eyes, "Slave, slave is Shen Yu!"

"Really?" Gu Heng said coldly, "Who sent you to my side, who asked you to set up this trap? What is your purpose, do it honestly!"

"Mr. Heng, you...what's the matter with you?" Shen Yu was about to cry, "I have been with you since I was a child, without any purpose. Back then, it was Master You..."

"Master You?" Gu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, "I'll give you one last chance to explain everything you know, otherwise I will definitely make your life worse than death!"

Gu Heng had killed so many people before, the gentleness and elegance of his youth had long since disappeared, and now he became stern, causing Shen Yu to sit back suddenly in fright, and fell to the ground.

"Mr. Heng, you are crazy... you want to kill the slave?" Shen Yu couldn't believe it, "Mr. Heng must be sick and confused, I, I will go to the doctor right away, even if I go to ask the postman, I will also kill the servant." Doctor, please come and heal Young Master Heng!"

Shen Yu seemed to have found the backbone, and got up from the ground at once, "Young Master Heng, wait for me, I will be right back!"

Then he ran out and never looked back.

"You, you stop!" Gu Heng scolded, but unfortunately Shen Yu was only focused on looking for the doctor and didn't hear anything.

On the other hand, Gu Heng coughed violently because of his impatience. He raised his hand to cover his mouth, and suddenly realized something was wrong—this hand was smooth and tender, it was not his hand at all!

His Gu family started as a military commander, and his family motto was to practice martial arts since he was a child. Even if he later became an official and became the fourth prince's staff advisor, he never neglected it for a long time.

He practiced sword every day, and there were calluses on the palms, tiger's mouth, and finger pulps, but this hand didn't have any at all.

And not just this hand, but the other hand too!

Huge panic swept through the body, rushed into the lungs, and the whole heart was lifted.

He suddenly realized something, quickly touched his face with both hands, then staggered down from the bed like crazy, groped around in the cramped room, and finally found a mirror.

He wiped the surface of the copper mirror with his fingers, and saw a face completely different from his own.

It was a strange face, he seemed to have never seen it before!

He, not him!

Who has he become?

At that moment, he seemed to have lost all his strength, his body was limp like a puddle of mud, holding on to the table top of the dressing table, he still couldn't stop slipping and falling to the ground.

In the end, he crawled on the four-legged low stool and heard his own strong breathing. He was thinking, what kind of existence has he become?

How could there be such a bizarre thing in this world?

Is he really dead?

After a long time, so long that Gu Heng felt that 100 years had passed, he gradually regained his composure, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and began to smooth out his current thoughts.

First, who is he?Second, why did he become like this?

He had to find the answers to these two questions, and the first question was very important. If the boy beside him was not an ignorant child, he would probably be beaten to death as a monster at this moment.

The child called him Mr. Heng, and he mentioned the Marquis of Changting, thinking that this body is the Gu family, as well as Mr. You and the old lady... Among the offshoots of the Gu family, there is only one person named You who has a close relationship with his father, Hong Lu The temple magistrate Cheng Gu You.

So now, has he become the son of Gu You...?

Gu You did have a son, who was six years younger than himself, and he had met several times when he was young, and the last time he met was ten years ago, that is, Gu Hengshi.Later, the child stayed in his hometown in Changting County all the year round due to his frailty and sickness, and worshiped a master in Hanshan Temple. It seemed that the rest in the Buddhist temple was quite beneficial, and there was no news of a serious illness.

And his name is also similar to his own, named Gu Heng, so it is not wrong for Shen Yu to call him Young Master Heng.

Gu Heng mustered up the courage again to look at the figure in the bronze mirror. This face was indeed somewhat similar to that of the past, even the red mole on the corner of the eye was still there, so it was undoubtedly Gu Heng.Unexpectedly, by mistake, he turned himself into the other party, so where did the original self go, and where did the real Gu Heng go?

Is he still dead?
