Married Thrice to Salted Fish

On that day, Lin Qingyu had been widowed for Lu Wancheng for less than a year, so Gu Fuzhou tried every means to marry him, completely ignoring the rumors that the man's wife was unknown.After marriage, the two raised their eyebrows together, and played together.The eunuchs and maids in the palace often saw Gu Fuzhou go to the imperial hospital to pick up his wife, and occasionally saw Lin Qingyu waiting for her husband outside the palace, which shows the deep love between their husband and wife.

Now that he suddenly heard the sad news of Gu Fuzhou's death in battle, even Xiao Songzi shed tears for him, but Lin Qingyu didn't even shed a tear, only the plain words "I got it".

Except for Jiang Xing, everyone was still immersed in the sad news. Hearing what Lin Qingyu said, no one reacted, and their red eyes stared again.

Especially Shen Huaizhi, he was entrusted by Lin Qingyu to go to the northwest to protect Gu Fuzhou's safety.He has stayed by Gu Fuzhou's side for a year, and he knows the depth of Gu Fuzhou's love for Lin Qingyu.He thought that Lin Qingyu would be furious, completely collapsed, and all thoughts were lost. He was also ready to apologize with death, but Lin Qingyu gave him a reaction that he had never imagined.

Jiang Xing sighed silently as he looked at Shen Huai's pierced forehead and the astonished expressions of the others.Lin Qingyu had already collapsed once, and almost lost his mind.The current Lin Qingyu doesn't even have the strength to act, so he can only hide everything under a calm surface just like in the past.

Lin Qingyu never exposes his vulnerable side to others, he is the only exception.

In the end, it was the queen mother who broke the strange silence: "General Gu is superb in martial arts, extraordinary in skill, and the commander of the first army. How could he have captured Yongliang, but he died in battle!"

Shen Huaizhi came back to his senses, and said in a low voice: "Yongliang City is well-defended, and our army has been unable to attack it for a long time. In order to reduce the casualties of soldiers, General Gu did not hesitate...to lure the enemy out of the city by risking himself.

When Shen Huaizhi said this, everyone present was moved, and the sound of sobbing was endless.Xiao Songzi was so out of breath from crying that he seemed to be about to faint from crying.

"General Wu Youyuan set up an ambush ahead of time. He was supposed to attack General Gu inside and outside to surround the enemy. Who would have thought..." Shen Huaizhi closed his eyes for a moment before he could continue. Xue Beng, was stopped outside the pass. General Gu waited for reinforcements for a long time, and Wan—"

A light cough interrupted Shen Huaizhi.Jiang Xing tugged at the Queen Mother's sleeve and said, "Queen Mother, I'm hungry."

The queen mother said in a hoarse voice: "Xiujiao, take the emperor down for some snacks."

Nurse Xiujiao wiped away the tears from her face, and was about to take Jiang Xing away, when Jiang Xing said again, "I want to eat here, with my mother."

The queen mother suddenly felt comforted, and said with a tearful smile: "The emperor also knows that he must be filial to his mother... General Gu is the pillar of the country, loyal to the emperor and patriotic, once he died in battle, Dayu lost his arm. The emperor is also sad for General Gu, isn't he ?”

Jiang Xing's intentions were too obvious, so Lin Qingyu complied with him for the time being and exposed the matter.He asked Shen Huaizhi: "Where is the general's body now?"

Shen Huaizhi looked up at Lin Qingyu blankly, and said after a while: "Three days after I left, General Shi Peishi personally escorted General Gu back to Beijing, and General Wu stayed in Yongliang to wait for orders."

Lin Qingyu nodded and said, "I will take care of the general's funeral personally."

"Qing Yu," the Queen Mother couldn't help but said, "If you feel uncomfortable in your heart, don't hold back, and be careful not to hurt your body."

Lin Qingyu said: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern."

The Empress Dowager sighed: "You go ahead. Call the Ministry of Rites to take care of General Gu's funeral together."

Lin Qingyu looked at Jiang Xing, and said softly, "Weichen...don't go."

Hearing this, Jiang Xing raised the corners of his lips slightly.Lin Qingyu is really clingy, he fucking likes it.

The queen mother thought she heard it wrong: "What?"

Lin Qingyu said: "The minister of Xuanli Department can go to Xingqing Palace. Huai Shi, you have worked hard all the way day and night. Xiao Songzi, take Mr. Shen to the side hall to take a bath and change clothes. Later, I have something to ask him."

After finally surviving until the Empress Dowager returned to Ci'an Palace, Lin Qingyu turned away the others and asked Jiang Xing, "Why didn't you let Shen Huaizhi continue talking?"

Jiang Xing smiled and said, "Misunderstanding." He became more and more normal when speaking in front of Lin Qingyu these days, "I was really hungry just now."

Lin Qingyu looked at him slightly accusingly: "You lied to me again."

"What do you want to hear from Shen Huaizhi? How did I die?" Jiang Xing said helplessly, "I've already told you, Qingyu."

"In that case, why not listen to Shen Huaizhi again?"

Jiang Xing was at a loss for words for a moment, and seeing that Lin Qingyu could not be stopped, he suddenly smiled and said, "Shen Huai is a clumsy person, so he must not be able to express the misery before my death. So, let me show you." "

Lin Qingyu frowned: "How do you want to play?"

"You will play Shen Huaizhi, and I will play Gu Fuzhou." Jiang Xing's face changed suddenly as he said that, he covered his chest, and vividly restored the expression he had when he was shot by the arrow that day.He only heard a "huh" and fell on Lin Qingyu.

Lin Qingyu caught him subconsciously, and the two fell to their knees together.Jiang Xing lay in Lin Qingyu's arms, holding his hand, and said with difficulty: "Save me, I wrote him a guarantee, he is still waiting for me, I can't lie to him..."

Lin Qingyu hesitated.

Before Jiang Xing died, all he could think about was the promise he had made to himself. He should have been moved and wept bitterly, but why was he moved, and... a little bit like laughing?

Jiang Xing looked at Lin Qingyu affectionately: "Don't let me die, he will cry."

Lin Qingyu: "..."

"Please, save me, you must save me... ah." Jiang Xing said "Ah" for the last time, let go of his hands, and fell into Lin Qingyu's arms with his eyes open, lying motionless.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Lin Qingyu asked, "And then?"

"And then I died." Jiang Xing didn't get up after the performance, and took the opportunity to lie in his wife's arms to be lazy, playing with Lin Qingyu's long hair hanging down his chest, "What I acted is the truth, if you don't believe me, go ask Shen Huai knowledge."

Lin Qingyu laughed: "I believe it."

"Then why don't you look moved at all?" Jiang Xing stared at him, "You don't even have red eyes, it's too much."

Lin Qingyu told honestly: "I really don't want to cry very much."

Jiang's eye-catching achievement, but teasingly said: "No, Qingyu. I am so affectionate, and you don't even want to cry? So love will disappear, right?"

Lin Qingyu touched the boy's short hair: "Love will not disappear, it will only transfer from the general to the emperor."

Jiang Xing smiled and said, "It makes sense."

Even though Jiang Xing acted so clearly, Lin Qingyu still called Shen Huaishi to him.Shen Huaizhi had been waiting for a long time, thinking that he had a chance to talk to Lin Qingyu alone, but when he entered the hall, he found that Lin Qingyu had indeed sent away all irrelevant people, leaving only the emperor alone.

Shen Huaizhi did not know about the change of ownership until he entered the capital.He didn't know much about the new emperor, he only knew that the new emperor was mentally incomplete and had been raised in Jinyang Garden before, so although he grew up in the palace, he hadn't seen the direct prince much.Today he was able to see Tianyan, even though he was burdened and his heart was heavy, he noticed that the emperor's appearance was extremely outstanding, three points better than General Gu's, and Lin Qingyu had his own merits.

But what shocked Shen Huaizhi the most was not the emperor's appearance, nor his strange short hair, but the way Lin Qingyu looked at him.

Lin Qingyu is so cool, there is no one else besides Gu Fuzhou who can make him treat him tenderly.

Shen Huaizhi was thinking wildly when he heard Lin Qingyu say: "Last year, when I invited you to the Northwest, I said that I only want you to do one thing well, and that is to protect the general and ensure his safe return."

When Lin Qingyu was talking, Jiang Xing was sitting next to him, listening to the conversation between the two, while playing with the playbook.

Shen Huaizhi lowered his head, and said: "I failed Master Lin's entrustment. I am sorry for the general, and I am sorry for Master Lin. I will accept whatever Master Lin wants to do with me."

Lin Qingyu asked: "Have you tried your best?"

Shen Huaizhi gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice, "I only regret that I can't die for the general."

Every moment after Gu Fuzhou's death, he thought about how good it would be if he was the one who died.He is alone, with no attachments, and no one will suffer for him when he dies.It is too worthwhile to exchange his life for Gu Fuzhou's life and Dayu's arm.

Lin Qingyu said lightly: "You can do this for him, for Dayu, so what can I blame you for?"

Shen Huai raised his head knowingly, looking at Lin Qingyu as if he was looking at a stranger.

Lin Qingyu asked again: "What are your plans in the future? I know you don't want to stay in the capital. If you want to go back to the frontier, I will arrange it for you."

"I..." Shen Huaizhi swallowed, "I want to stay in the capital for the time being and see General Gu off for the last time."

Lin Qingyu nodded lightly: "It's up to you. In addition, I will give an explanation to the Northwest soldiers about the looting of food and grass."

Having said that, it's almost time to end.Seeing that Shen Huaizhi was still in a daze, Lin Qingyu asked, "What else do you need?"

Shen Huaizhi hesitated for a long time, and said: "Master Lin, before the death of General Gu, he told me a lot..." Shen Huaizhi clenched his fists, "He is begging me, begging me to save him. He said he agreed I will definitely come back to you after killing you. I am useless, I cannot save him...I can only watch him die, I can't do anything..."

At the end, Shen Huaizhi's eyes were blurred and he couldn't cry.

Lin Qingyu still had those three words: "I know."

Shen Huaizhi was stunned: "...Master Lin?"

"Because he promised me, he desperately wanted to live, but he still didn't come back. So I will still blame him and blame him." Lin Qingyu sneered, "I will blame him for the rest of my life."

Shen Huaizhi fell silent, tears fell from his cheeks and dripped on the back of his weather-beaten hands.

He originally thought that no matter how cold Lin Qingyu was, he would treat Gu Fuzhou differently.He was the one who misread Lin Qingyu.

Or maybe, I never understood him.

Shen Huaizhi couldn't bear it anymore, and asked: "Master Lin is like this, how can he be worthy of the pain that the general suffered from thousands of arrows piercing his heart that day?"

Lin Qingyu opened his eyes wide, and suddenly looked at Jiang Xing.Jiang Xing was in a bad mood. The house he had spent a long time building up with playbooks collapsed.
