After being forced to marry the prince

"Gu Baiji!" The emperor was furious, he stood up and pointed at Chu Wu, gritted his teeth and said, "You disregarded the emperor's order and the society for the sake of your children's private interests, do you really think that I dare not kill you?"

Chu Wuwei lowered his head, as if it had nothing to do with him, calm and calm.

Seeing this, the emperor felt anxious, and once again regretted leaving Chu Wuyi alive.

Gu Baiji only said: "Return to Your Majesty, every sentence of the minister is the words of the heart."

"Okay! Okay!" said the emperor, "Since you want to die, I will let you go."

After speaking, he turned and left angrily.

The cell quickly returned to tranquility, Gu Baiji sat down on the straw, held Chu Wu in his arms, and said softly, "Are you scared?"

Chu Wu shook his head and leaned obediently in his arms, "General, if..."

Gu Baiji immediately interrupted him, "There is no if, there is no if."

Gu Baiji kissed his hair up and down, with firmness and cruelty in his words, "Chu Wu, you know, whoever hurts you again, I will pay back a hundred times and ten times, no matter who that person is."

The person who had just faced the emperor calmly and calmly, now his chest heaved violently because of his unfinished sentence.

"General, there are no ifs." Chu Wu raised his head and kissed his stubbled chin lightly, and changed his words somewhat soothingly, "I mean, if the emperor insists on killing you and me, then let's run away!"

"Okay." Gu Baiji raised his hand to support his shoulder, and kissed him on the lips before Chu Wu left.

The next day, the emperor came again, still sitting in the same position as yesterday.

His eyes are blue and black, his expression is tired, obviously he hasn't slept all night, but he just looks at Gu Baiji and Chu Wu with disgust and anger that cannot be dispelled.

"Gu Baiji, I can spare your life." The emperor said, "Chu Wu doesn't have to die either."

Then, without waiting for the two to thank them, the emperor added, "But capital crimes can be forgiven, but living crimes cannot be forgiven."

Chu Wu's heart skipped a beat, here he comes.

Eunuch Xiao quickly read the crimes of the two with the imperial decree, and finally said that although the two did not directly kill the princess consort, they would not be guilty of death, but according to the law of Jokhang, the title of Prince Chu Wu should still be abolished, and they should receive thirty sticks; Gu Bai In the extreme, the salary will be stopped for three years, and the stick will be twenty.

Considering that Gu Baiji will lead the army to fight, his official position will not be affected, even the caning is much lighter than Chu Wu, it can be said that it is not painful.

But for Chu Wu, it's not the same thing at all.He didn't care about the title of the prince, but Chu Wu was just an ordinary person who had never practiced martial arts. With a stick of thirty, it could almost kill him.

The emperor is not forgiving, it is clear that he has changed to a more cruel way of killing.

The shock in Chu Wu's heart lasted only a moment, and soon he realized that the emperor's hatred for him was probably much deeper than what he thought.

He thought the emperor didn't want him to live a good life, but it turned out that the emperor wanted him to die a bad life.

Gu Baiji could only feel the anger in his heart that he could hardly suppress, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, wishing he could directly kill this stupid king who doesn't distinguish between good and evil.

Chu Wu's cuffs covered his wrists, and he pressed Gu Baiji's wrists tightly where no one else could see.

"Father..."

"I beg Your Majesty to show mercy!"

Gu Baiji interrupted Chu Wu's words and knocked heavily on the ground.

"Why?" The emperor sneered, "I have saved both of your lives, and you are still not satisfied with the result?"

Gu Baiji said: "Returning to Your Majesty, Chu Wushen has an old illness, and he really can't stand the [-]th punishment with the cane."

The emperor sneered, his tone weak but sinister, "General Gu, what do you mean, let me let him go?"

Then he patted the armrest of the armchair, and said fiercely: "Gu Baiji, don't be ignorant of what is good or bad. This is already my biggest concession. If you make further progress, I don't mind sending the two of you to the underworld to meet. It really is a great country, Can't find a general who can fight?"

"I don't dare!" Gu Baiji said, "I only ask Your Majesty, as a minister, to take this punishment on Chu Wu's behalf!"

Chu Wu was shocked, subconsciously refused, "General, no!"

The emperor was furious, "Gu Baiji, are you teaching me how to do things?"

Gu Baiji knelt down on the ground and begged: "Chu Wu is my partner, and his old diseases are mostly caused by my minister. I will never watch him get hurt again. I beg your majesty to allow me."

The emperor said angrily: "What if I don't allow it?"

Gu Baiji repeated word by word, "Return to Your Majesty, even if I replace him with my life, I will never let him be harmed again."

"Okay, you're doing well." The emperor was so angry that he smashed the tea brought by the servants on the ground, and the hand that pointed at Gu Baiji was trembling, "Gu Baiji, you are sure that I am afraid that you will hurt me. Missing the battlefield?"

"I don't dare." Gu Baiji said again, "I am willing to issue a military order. If you fail to expel foreign enemies after being punished and go to the battlefield, let your majesty deal with it."

"General." Chu Wu held him eagerly, shaking his head again and again, "No, there's no need to be like this, I can do it, don't ask you to replace me."

Gu Baiji remained motionless, but the emperor was moved by Gu Baiji's promise.

Killing Chu Wu now can indeed avenge Longxin, but if he follows Gu Baiji and finds any excuses for him to fail after the war, then no matter how he wants to deal with the Gu family, he will have a reason to say, and he won't have to be talked about He killed Zhongliang or something.

Moreover, since Chu Wu has already entered the General's Mansion, he is naturally included in the Gu family's nine clans.

"Are you really willing to issue a military order?"

Gu Baiji said: "I am willing."

"No." Chu Wu was so frightened that his voice changed. Even if Gu Baiji had extraordinary skills, he couldn't bear the fifty-fifty cane.

"General, I can bear it, you don't have to replace me, I can."

Gu Baiji remained silent, and heard the emperor say again: "If I not only want you to expel foreign enemies, but also want you to win beauty, how about the casualties not exceeding a certain number?"

"no no!"

Chu Wu shook his head again and again, the so-called "winning beauty" can do too much, the emperor is clearly trying to cut off Gu Baiji's way out.

Seeing that Gu Baiji could not be persuaded, Chu Wu turned to the emperor, and said repeatedly: "Father, I thank you for not killing me. I have received the [-]-carrying staff. You can hit me, and the crime is also..."

"Chu Wu!"

Gu Bai interrupted him violently, and said slowly: "Do you want me to bear this crime with you for something I have never done?"

Chu Wu shook his head and looked at him with despair, "General, don't do it for me, I don't need it."

The emperor didn't even look at Chu Wu. He even felt that his depressed mood had improved for the past few days because of the tragic situation of the two.

"How?" the emperor asked Gu Baiji, "Agreed?"

Chu Wu shed tears, begging desperately and in vain: "General, don't agree, please."

Gu Baiji spoke slowly: "I am willing."

"In this case, I will allow it." The emperor said, "After you have received the fifty back sticks, you two can leave this prison."

"Sir, thank you Lord Long En!"

"no no!"

Chu Wu shook his head in despair, turned to the emperor and kowtowed fiercely, but his forehead didn't touch the ground, but bumped into a large and warm palm.

"Ayou." Gu Baiji called him softly, then turned his head slightly, and whispered in Chu Wu's ear with a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Don't beg him."

Chu Wu just shook his head, choked up and said, "Fifty back stick, general, it will kill you."

"Death?" The emperor suddenly remembered something, and sneered, "Gu Baiji, I have already reminded you that Chu Wu will be fatal if he gets close!"

Chu Wuwen said, thinking of the fifty back sticks that Gu Baiji responded to, he thought in a trance that he was really the fate of the lone star of the gods, and his already pale face turned pale little by little.

At this moment, Gu Baiji said slowly but clearly: "Without Chu Wu, I would be nothing more than a walking corpse, and life would be better than death."

The emperor was short-tempered, and sneered, "It's a kind of love. I want to see if you can still speak so righteously after you are tortured."

"Your Majesty, I have an unfeeling request, and I beg for your Majesty's permission."

From the beginning to now, Gu Baiji's attitude was seemingly humble but actually tough. When he suddenly heard the word "begging", the emperor was a little curious, "Say."

However, it was different from the expected begging for mercy, Gu Baiji said: "I implore Your Majesty to execute the sentence in another place."

He didn't want Chu Wu to watch the scene of him being tortured at all.
