After being forced to marry the prince

"Qi Le." Gu Baiji called people aside, and asked in a low voice, "Did the prince say anything before he left?"

Qi Le shook her head, and said dejectedly, "My lord just said, if he doesn't come back, let the general leave without waiting."

"Okay, let me change the question." Gu Baiji said again, "Is your prince safe?"

When Qi Le heard this, her eyes turned red, "It should be safe."

"Should?" Gu Baiji almost laughed angrily, "Qile, you just need to tell me where he is now, I'll go find him."

Qi Le struggled for a while, but still shook her head and said, "My lord...don't let me talk about it."

"Okay." Gu Baiji said, "I'll wait for another half an hour, and if no one comes after half an hour, we'll set off."

The news that he handed over his military power and plans to return to his hometown has already been spread in the court. At this time, I don't know how many people are staring at the general's mansion. It is really not beneficial to delay it.

Half an hour later, the three carriages in front of the General's Mansion finally moved.

Gu Nanshu huddled in the carriage, and after she couldn't see Chu Wu, she also found something wrong, opened her big eyes and said anxiously:

"Brother, didn't you say that sister-in-law would leave for a while, why didn't she come back?"

"He may be delayed by something." Gu Baiji said in a low voice, "Nan Shu, you and Si Yuan will go first, and brother will go find his sister-in-law."

Gu Nanshu nodded repeatedly, "Okay, brother."

"But we can't let people know that we're not in the mansion, understand?"

"Okay." Gu Nanshu nodded again and again, "I know my brother, Nanshu will be obedient, you go and bring your sister-in-law, Nanshu misses him."

Gu Baiji nodded, turned around and went to the last carriage.

Qi Le was hesitating while holding a set of strong clothes for walking, when Gu Baiji came in suddenly, which shocked him a lot.

"Will... general?"

Gu Baiji asked coldly, "Where are you going?" Seeing that he didn't speak, he asked again, "Want to find your prince?"

Qi Le nodded.

"Can we talk now?" Gu Baiji asked, "Where did he go?"

Qi Le lowered her head, and after a while, she gritted her teeth and asked, "General, you went to the palace to bring the prince back, so you shouldn't harm him, right?"

Gu Baiji nodded, "I shouldn't, I won't harm him."

Even if he couldn't love him, he would definitely not harm him.

Qi Le heard the words, and finally said:

"I don't know where the prince is, but I guess that the prince must have gone to the palace to find the young master."

Gu Bai was extremely stunned: "Little master?"

But for a moment, he immediately recalled the "Luohan Palace" that Chu Wubing mentioned earlier.

"Yes." Qi Le nodded.

"Okay, I see." Without time to think, Gu Baiji said, "Leave with them first, remember not to stop and wait for others, I will catch up with you after I find the prince, don't show any flaws."

Qi Le nodded repeatedly.

The capital is huge, the General's Mansion is far from the city gate, but it is closer to the imperial palace. If the carriage slows down, it will take about an hour to get from the General's Mansion to the city gate, and what Gu Baiji has to do is to do it within this hour. Find Chu Wu and bring him back to the car.

The cold palaces are often located in the most remote places in the palace, so Gu Baiji couldn't go in ostentatiously if he wanted to find someone.

Fortunately, due to certain considerations in the early years, he had firmly engraved the map of the palace in his mind.

When he touched the cold palace from outside the palace wall, he heard the noise inside which was different from usual, Gu Baiji suddenly had some bad premonition in his heart.

He turned over and went in, and just hid behind the messy flowers, he saw several palace people running over, discussing:

"It is said that someone stole in the palace and ran forward."

"Someone stole something in Luohan Palace. It's strange. What's there to steal in Lenggong?"

"I don't know, didn't I see no one? Maybe the people who live in it are crazy again!"

Who made the cold palace of this dynasty probably have the largest number of residents in the cold palace of all dynasties.

The emperor loves beauties, and newcomers are sent to the palace one after another, but the most favored imperial concubine is jealous, and the emperor accepts newcomers, so she tries every means to send the old ones to the cold palace.

As a result, the resentment in the cold palace was so high that they would go crazy or die one or two from time to time.

Gu Baiji was thinking about who the so-called thief was, when he heard a voice that had already gone away:

"Isn't this Lenggong too weird? Didn't I hear the cries of children?"

"I guess some concubine is crazy again. There are always people who fantasize about being pregnant with a dragon fetus and returning to the branch to become a phoenix."

"Let's go, let's go, I went to see it just now, isn't there nothing?"

Waiting for people to leave, Gu Baiji came out from his hiding place.

According to the meaning of these people just now, if the thief they said just now is really Chu Wu, then he should be safe at this moment.

Gu Baiji heaved a sigh of relief silently, then got up and walked in the opposite direction of where Qi Le said and where those people left just now.

the other side.

Hearing the sound of footsteps walking away, Chu Wufang came out from behind the rockery.

He was holding a boy about three years old in his hands. The boy was wearing some clothes cut from old clothes. Although he looked a little old, he was clean and thick.

The child's facial features are extremely exquisite, and the pink and jade carvings are very cute. At this time, he is lying in Chu Wu's arms and sleeping soundly, and occasionally smacked his mouth.

Compared to the child's delicacy, Chu Wu looked much more embarrassed, his long hair was slightly disheveled, his clothes were stained with withered grass and leaves, his face looked pale and haggard as a result of hiding all night.

"My lord, it's all right. This time, they should be able to dispel their suspicion." A disheveled crazy woman came over, looked at the child in his arms reluctantly, and then gritted her teeth, "My lord, put the fluffy Take it out, and don't come to this cold palace again, since they have become suspicious, this place is probably not safe."

Chu Wu nodded, "Take care too."

"Go!" The woman lightly touched the child's face, "My lord and Rongrong are fine, and we can rest in peace in this cold tomb."

Chu Wu felt sour, knowing that it was not too late, he turned around and left after all.

Before leaving the courtyard, Chu Wu turned his head, and saw a woman standing behind every open window, there were dozens of them, watching them silently, and some of them were wiping their hands gently. tears.

Chu Wu paused for a moment, and said softly: "Live on, one day, if I'm still here, I will definitely come and take you away."

Chu Wu carried the child in his arms and walked left and right in the dilapidated and deserted courtyard until he reached a narrow door blocked by various vines before stopping.

He gently pushed the vine aside, and was about to leave with the child in his arms, but he suddenly froze in place.

Someone is behind the door!

Immediately afterwards, the sound of patrolling footsteps came from a distance.

Chu Wu's face was pale, and he was about to turn around and leave when someone grabbed his arm, and then a familiar voice rang in his ear.

"Ah, it's me!"

It's Gu Baiji!

At that moment, Chu Wu didn't know what he was thinking, he only thought that he could meet Gu Baiji in this life, even if he had been waiting for him for nearly ten years, even if it was impossible for Gu Baiji to like him, there was only one feeling in his heart.

Really worth it!

"General." Chu Wu called out in a low voice.

Gu Baiji hurriedly looked at him, "Are you okay?"

Chu Wu shook his head.

"Leave here first." Gu Baiji pulled him out of the small door, when the footsteps in the distance were getting closer.

Chu Wu was anxious, and was about to hand the child into Gu Baiji's hands to let him leave first, when his head was suddenly covered by a cloak.

"Hold the child well." Gu Baiji wrapped him and the child in a cloak, then hugged Chu Wu by the waist, and after a few jumps, he left this desolate and dilapidated cold palace without a sound.
