After being forced to marry the prince

Chu Wuwen said, his complexion softened, he nodded and said, "My concubine treats me very well, and has always been very good."

Gu Baiji smiled lightly: "That's good."

Afterwards, the atmosphere in the carriage was much better than at the beginning. Chu Wu saw that Gu Baiji really didn't care about the emperor's words, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

From the very beginning, he wasn't angry because of the emperor's attitude, what he was worried about was what Gu Baiji would think after hearing those words.

Now it seems that the emperor still underestimated Gu Baiji's heart after all, not everyone is like him, suspicious and selfish.

Back at the General's Mansion, before getting out of the carriage, he saw Gu Nanshu waiting at the door from a distance.

Chu Wu lifted the curtain, Gu Nanshu's eyes lit up, and she stumbled over.

"Sister-in-law!"

"careful!"

Chu Wu was afraid that she would throw him, so he hurriedly stepped forward and hugged him into his arms.

Gu Nanshu hugged Chu Wu happily, "Sister-in-law, I miss you so much!"

Chu Wu patted her on the back lightly, "I miss you too."

Gu Nanshu was even happier when she heard the words, she rubbed against Chu Wu's arms, and finally she turned around and praised Gu Bai:

"My brother is very good this time, and he really brought my sister-in-law back."

Gu Bai pampered her small upturned nose, "You're the only one who can say it."

Chu Wu also laughed, the haze that he met in the palace before seemed to have dissipated completely at this moment, and in the place where his heart had been empty for a long time, those seeds that had been buried for nearly ten years finally sprouted, and a family of small flowers bloomed .

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and just as Chu Wu came back, the general's mansion was also much bustling.

Ze An Yu was alone in the capital, so he consciously took the zongzi from his hometown to the General's Mansion, and had another reunion dinner by the way.

Friends during the festive season cannot do without good wine, but An Yu always drank heavily, Gu Bai was extremely unwilling to drink with him, so he simply went to find Chu Wu.

Chu Wu looked elegant, but he was surprisingly good at drinking. In addition, he seemed to be in a really good mood today, and he drank as much as Ze An Yu.

The night is quiet, the evening breeze is cool and soft.Chu Wu sat on the stone bench in the gazebo, playing with two leaves that he tore off at some point in his hands.

Hearing footsteps, he turned around and asked:

"How are they?"

Gu Baiji sat down beside him, took the wine glass in his hand, and handed over a plate of snacks, "Seeing that you haven't eaten much for dinner, eat some snacks to suppress the alcohol."

Chu Wu didn't know if he was drunk, he was a little numb, and he lost his usual calm and calmness.

He took the snack with both hands and took a bite, watching Gu Baiji not moving again.

Gu Baiji said conveniently: "An Zhi was drunk, he found a place to sleep by himself, and Nan Shu also fell asleep."

Chu Wu nodded, "Okay."

Seeing that he was still looking at him motionless, Gu Baiji couldn't help asking: "What do you want to say?"

Chu Wu fixedly looked at him, and after a while, suddenly sighed in a low voice, "Why don't you like it?"

Gu Baiji was puzzled: "What did you say?"

"I said..." Chu Wu paused, as if a little sleepy, and said softly, "Is it worth it?"

Gu Baiji was taken aback, "What did you say?"

"Is it worth it to exchange military power with him?" Chu Wudao said, "The situation in the capital is in chaos now. If the general stays in the capital at this time, it will be much better than leaving."

His brothers are more stupid than the other, and now they are killing each other, with Gu Baiji's talent, they may not be able to fish in troubled waters.

And although he may be involved in being left in the palace, it is only a "possibility" after all, but Gu Baiji paid such a high price for such an uncertainty.

It was hard for Chu Wu to convince himself not to think too much, but he was afraid to think too much.

For some things, if you crave for too long, your mentality will change. Although you are still longing for it, you will be afraid to hold on to hope.

Gu Baiji looked at him with a slightly dazed expression, and subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to brush away the strand of hair on his shoulder. He clenched his hand into a fist, paused, and then said:

"Since the lord has entered the general's mansion, I will protect your safety. Regardless of other things, Zao Chu has long regarded the lord as a life-and-death friend in his heart. It is also right to protect your friend's safety."

Chu Wuwen said, his eyelids drooped slightly.

Expected, even better than expected answer, so don't be sad.

Chu Wu picked up the jug, poured a glass for Gu Baiji, filled another glass for himself, handed it to Gu Baiji, and touched it lightly in his hand.

"Thank you, General. It is Chu Wu's fortune to have General as a friend. I respect you."

After speaking, without waiting for Gu Baiji's reaction, he raised his head and gulped it down.

"General." Chu Wu leaned on the railing and said intermittently, "I'm a little sleepy, general, let's go rest!"

"Prince?" Gu Baiji called a few times, "Ah You, go to sleep in the room!"

Chu Wu didn't respond anymore, apparently fell asleep with drunkenness.

Gu Baiji sighed silently, staring at Chu Wu for a long time, finally raised his hand that had not dropped just now, and brushed away a strand of hair wrapped around his neck.

"General." Chen Siyuan came in and said, "Maidservant help the prince back to the house to rest?"

Xu was happy today, even Qi Le drank a few more glasses, fought with Chen Qi and fell asleep.Chen Siyuan has always been calm and restrained, even drinking alcohol will keep her drunkenness under control.

"No need." Gu Baiji said, "Go and rest! I'll just help him in."

Chen Siyuan nodded, turned around and backed out.

Gu Qing was slightly drunk, and was sitting on the steps in front of the door with a plate of pastries. Seeing Chen Siyuan coming alone, he handed over the pastries clearly, "Do you want some?"

Without saying a word, Chen Siyuan picked up a piece of pastry and sat down beside Gu Qing.

Gu Qing didn't mind either, and kindly handed over a cup of hangover tea, "It's for the prince, how about some?"

Chen Siyuan shook her head, a silence fell between the two of them.

Standing beside Chu Wu, Gu Baiji thought that this person was too quiet, he fell asleep when he was drunk, and remained motionless when he fell asleep, and he would never cause any trouble to others.

He just watched for a moment, then took a step forward, bent down and hugged Chu Wu.

"Tsk." Gu Baiji murmured, "It's really light, Bai has grown so much."

Chu Wu moved slightly, subconsciously found a comfortable position in Gu Baiji's arms, and then remained motionless again.

His head was leaning against Gu Baiji's arms, when Gu Baiji put him on the bed, Chu Wu's hair ran through his fingers.

The silky touch flowed in the palm of his hand like running water, Gu Baiji seemed to be bewitched, and when the hair on his finger was about to fall off, he lowered his head and pressed a kiss on it.

Since it was said that he would go back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, it was naturally on the agenda. Gu Baiji decided to leave the day after tomorrow, so the General's Mansion began to get busy on the second day.

Chu Wu was a little out of his mind this day, Gu Baiji saw him occasionally staring at the direction of the palace wall, and sighed silently.

Chu Wu couldn't believe him, or rather, Chu Wu was avoiding trouble for him.

Finally, later, Chu Wu said that he had something to do and had to leave. Gu Baiji didn't ask him what was the matter, but only asked if he wanted to help, but Chu Wu refused.

He left and didn't come back until the next day.

The luggage was ready, Gu Qing came to ask:

"General, when will you leave? My lord...can you tell me when will you be back?"

Apart from Gu Qing, only the Chen family siblings and Qi Le knew about the prince's departure.

Gu Qing's face was a little anxious, and he was obviously worried.

"Wait a little longer." Gu Baiji said, got up and walked out, the carriage outside the door was ready, as soon as they saw him, the Chen family sisters and brothers looked over in unison.

Qi Le, who always loved to cry, was calmer, but she looked over with some worry and hesitated to speak.
