After being forced to marry the prince

After a few days, General Gu returned triumphantly again, the emperor seemed to finally remember to reward him, the palace hosted another banquet, and invited Gu Baiji and Chu Wu away.

This time there was nothing wrong with it, but since it was a banquet for Gu Baiji, the eyes of everyone at the banquet were naturally on Gu Baiji.But Chu Wu's leg injury was not healed, and Gu Baiji's caring appearance still hurt some people's eyes.

Hearing what other people said about Gu Baiji's bravery, the emperor felt quite complicated.

When he heard that the bandits rioted, he was naturally a little flustered, but the bandits calmed down, and the emperor had lived in comfort for a long time, and he had forgotten those fearful anxieties, so he didn't really hope that Gu Baiji would really come in handy.

Prince Chu Jun's attention was mostly on Chu Wu this time, and seeing Gu Baiji's attentiveness to him, his complexion became more and more gloomy.If Chu Wu was really hiding his clumsiness before, and even the real purpose of marrying Gu Baiji was to win his support, then it is obvious that from Gu Baiji's attitude, Chu Wu has already succeeded more than half.

When staying in the palace at night to have dinner with the imperial concubine and Chu Yue, Chu Jun mentioned this matter with a very clear meaning: Chu Wu can't stay, but he is surrounded by masters, and it is obviously unrealistic to assassinate him directly.

Chu Yue was quite experienced in this and nodded repeatedly.

Chu Jun said: "So the most urgent thing is to separate Chu Wu and Gu Baiji, no matter what method is used."

When Chu Yue heard this, her heart moved, and she took a careful look at Chu Jun.

On this day, General Gu, who was galloping on the battlefield, was squatting in the medicine garden of the general's mansion, weeding and turning the soil for Chu Wuzhong's precious herbs.

Chu Wu was sitting on the specially moved couch next to him, eating a snack and smiling while watching Gu Baiji's cautious movements.

Gu Nanshu sat next to him, the little child was so caring, she would feed Chu Wu with snacks, and stand on the couch to beat his back for a while.Chu Wu refused to hug her if he wanted to, because he was afraid that he would crush his sister-in-law's leg.

"Ah." Gu Baiji turned his head and pointed to a yellow withered grass and asked, "This one doesn't look like medicine, and it doesn't look like grass, can it be pulled?"

In fact, he wanted to say that the few weeds beside him grew better than it.

"No, no, I can't pull it out." Chu Wu hurriedly stretched out his hand, "General, it's called Yi Nianhuang, and it looks like this. If you pull it out, the whole Zhao Dynasty probably won't be able to find another one."

"So precious?" Gu Baiji was taken aback, and his actions became more careful.

Although Chu Wu said so, there was no worry on his face, and he watched Gu Baiji's movements with a smile in his eyes.

Chu Wu's medicine garden was much larger than when he first came to the General's Mansion. Gu Baiji pulled more and more weeds more and more easily, and then he heard Chu Wu exclaimed a little.

"Huh?" Gu Baiji turned around in a daze.

Chu Wu pointed to a dead branch next to him that looked more weedy than weeds, a short section, like the kind of branch that loses all moisture under a tree in winter.

"This?" Gu Baiji picked up the dead branch and looked closely, and sure enough, he saw a short fibrous root at one end, and a little bud sprouted from the other end.

"Yeah." Chu Wu nodded, "This is called a cliff branch." He finally couldn't help laughing, "Only on the cliffs of hundreds of feet can grow. This is the first time I have grown roots."

"So rare?" Gu Bai was extremely at a loss as to what to do, he pulled out a small nest in the freshly turned soil, trying to replant this cliff branch into it.

Chu Wu almost laughed out loud, and hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter, general, you don't need to plant it, this thing can still be used after it dries up, and the effect is the same."

He really didn't have the nerve to say that this stuff would never survive.

Gu Baiji was a little skeptical, "Can it really be used after sprouting?"

Chu Wu smiled and nodded, "Yes."

Gu Baiji was relieved now, he carefully put away the dead branch that sprouted.Looking up and seeing Chu Wuxiao's full eyes, he suddenly felt that the empty place in his heart was filled by these smiling eyes.

Gu Baiji was a little distracted thinking, if this life can really go on so peacefully and happily, there is nothing wrong with it.

Because he was worried that it would be inconvenient for Chu Wu to sleep at night, Gu Baiji, who had already moved to the next door, lived with Chu Wu again holding the quilt.

When changing the dressing for the leg injury at night, Chu Wu looked at Gu Baiji's cautious movements, felt his hand inadvertently rubbing against his skin, and said uncomfortably:

"General, it's already healed, you don't need to change the medicine."

"I know." Gu Baiji was a little persistent, "Ah, you have to bear with it and apply it for a while, so as not to leave hidden dangers and cause pain in the future."

Chu Wu felt a little warm in his heart, but felt even more uncomfortable. He couldn't help moving, and Gu Baiji directly reached out to hold his calf:

"pain?"

Chu Wu shook his head, Gu Baiji said: "Be patient first, then change the medicine a few times and it will be fine."

Chu Wu nodded, glanced away those unwanted thoughts in his heart, and watched Gu Baiji's movements seriously.

After a few more days, Chu Wu's leg was healed, so Gu Baiji wanted to go out for a walk with him, but he didn't go far. He just went to the chaotic stall that Chu Wu once said was delicious. Serve with a bowl of wontons.

The wontons were delicious as always, and the two ate to their heart's content. When leaving, Gu Baiji also met an acquaintance.

The general will be Sanqing.

Yu Sanqing has also been on the battlefield, although he didn't stay for long, but under Gu Baiji's command, the two can be regarded as having some personal friendship.

"General." Yu Sanqing was very excited when he saw Gu Baiji. After meeting Chu Wu, he turned his head and said to Gu Baiji with great joy, "This subordinate wanted to go to the mansion to meet the general in a few days, but I didn't expect What a coincidence to meet you here."

Gu Baiji nodded, "I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?"

Yu Sanqing nodded again and again, "Before this subordinate heard that the general was in danger in southern Xinjiang, he was very worried for a while. Now that the general is safe, he is finally relieved."

The two said a few more words, and Yu Sanqing said: "General, my subordinates will hold a banquet in a few days to gather with some friends who were rarely seen in the past. An Zhi is here too. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to invite the general to have a party ?”

Gu Baiji nodded indifferently, "It's a great honor."

Two days later, Yu Sanqing's invitation really arrived, and the time was set for the afternoon of that day.

Before leaving, Gu Baiji thought about it, and specifically told Chu Wu to let him rest early at a later date, and he would come back as soon as possible.

I don't know what's going on, it seems that since he met Chu Wu, he always met some inexplicable banquets.But this time it's just a meeting of a few generals, so nothing should happen.

However, having said that, Gu Baiji did not expect that this time it would be another real Hongmen banquet.

When Gu Baiji went, there were indeed only a few former military generals and old friends at the banquet, and An Yu was also there, so Gu Baiji relaxed a little.

But he didn't expect that under such circumstances, someone could tamper with his wine.

Gu Baiji's alcohol capacity is not bad, but after drinking half of the wine, he felt a little dizzy in his head, he didn't think much about it, he just thought that the drink that Yu Sanqing prepared today was too strong.

Then he said to Ze An Yu: "I'll go outside to get some fresh air, you guys drink first, don't wait for me."

"Okay." Ze An Yu nodded, looked at Gu Baiji's back, and looked at the wine glass in front of him with some doubts: Has the general's drinking capacity worsened? Today's wine is not strong, why does he look so pale? red?
