◎Helian's family has no shortage of his subjects, and the Gu family has more than one child. ◎

It was three days later that Gu Yuan actually received the news that He Liansheng was going to accompany him.

At that time, he and Ding Youchong were in the room deducing and finalizing the details of the Northern Yin dispatching troops.

The moment the news came, Ding Youchong froze in place.

"Does His Royal Highness Sui Yu want to go with you?"

He scratched his head, trying to recall all his impressions of this little Highness, but he felt rather vague,

"I haven't seen them mention it before, why is it so sudden... Hey? Where are you going, Mr. Gu?"

Before the words fell, Gu Yuan's figure disappeared at the door.

Only then did Ding Youchong recall the delicate meeting of the two people outside the palace that day.

Is it...

Are these two old acquaintances?

But Northern Yin is far away from the capital, if one has to talk about Gu Yuan's old acquaintances in Northern Yin, then only...

That one?

Ding Youchong was a little confused for a moment, but on the other side, Gu Yuan had already gone straight to the outside of the hall.

In the elegant and clean inner hall, Dugu Che, who was only dressed in ordinary clothes, was sitting on a soft couch with his eyes closed to rest his mind. An attendant hurried in from the outside and leaned over his ear.

Dugu Che opened his eyes, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Now?" He said, "Since it's urgent, please come in."

Not long after, Gu Yuan appeared in front of him.

Dugu Che looked at him with great interest.

He didn't know Gu Yuan very well, he only knew that he was He Liansheng's former sweetheart.

Xiao Sheng was born in the royal family, and he has high vision since he was a child, he knows this.

But a few days ago, during the conversation with Gu Yuan, especially the last negotiation, he clearly realized that the young man in front of him may not only have a brilliant talent, but also an extremely rare political talent .

Dugu Che is the king, apart from other things, he admires Gu Yuan.

"Master Gu came to find me in a hurry." He said, "Is there something wrong?"

He thought that it was because of He Lianjin's new changes.

Gu Yuan paused.

"I have a merciless request." He said softly, "It's in the name of...a private person."

Dugu Che was stunned for a moment.

"I think." Gu Yuan looked at him and took a deep breath, "His Royal Highness Sui Yu is not suitable to go to Yuanding with the army."

Dugu Che's hand clinging to the teacup paused for a moment, and he put the cup on the table.

He looked at Gu Yuan, and saw an imperceptible anxiety in his eyes.

Dugu Che leaned back thoughtfully.

"So it's because of this incident." He said.

Then, he paused, "Does Xiaosheng know that you are looking for me?"

He changed his title, acquiescing to Gu Yuan's so-called "personal name".

Gu Yuan pursed his lips.

During these three days, he tried every means to persuade He Liansheng, but he failed even once.

He Liansheng didn't see him.

Whether it's outside his own yard, or when you usually meet.

If it wasn't for this reason, he wouldn't have come to Dugu Che either.

No one knows He Liansheng's persistence better than Gu Yuan.At the beginning, he was able to ignore everyone's ridicule and pursue him for so long, which is enough to prove that He Liansheng is a person who never cares about what others think.

What he made up his mind to do, no one can stop him.

Gu Yuan couldn't when he liked Gu Yuan in the past, let alone now.

He could only pin this matter on Dugu Che.

He didn't answer Dugu Che's question, but took a deep breath: "I thought...you wouldn't allow him to go."

Dugu Che paused, and his tone was somewhat curious: "Why do you think so?"

Gu Yuan suddenly raised his eyes, his tone was a bit jerky.

"Didn't Princess Ya send His Highness to Northern Yin just to keep His Highness safe for the rest of his life?" There was a bit of urgency in his tone, "A sword has no eyes on the battlefield..."

"you are wrong."

Dugu Che looked at him and spoke calmly.

Gu Yuan stopped in place.

"We Northern Yin people have always believed in doing as we please." Dugu Che said, "Sister Huang gave Xiao Sheng a second life because she cherished Xiao Sheng. But even so, she would not interfere with Xiao Sheng's life." Any decision of Sheng."

"She won't. As an uncle, I'm even less qualified." He smiled, "Master Gu, don't you think so?"

His tone was calm, with sharpness hidden in his casualness.Gu Yuan understood the implication of his words.

Dugu Che is not qualified, he...

Even less qualified.

Having said that, if Gu Yuan is sensible, he should step down.

But he didn't.

He clenched his palms tightly, and suddenly said, "I can persuade the Holy Majesty to pass the customs clearance order to Northern Yin on the commercial road in the northwest."

Dugu Che was startled for a moment, then raised his eyes.

"Northwest Commercial Road..." he said slowly, "I remember, when this matter was reported to the court last year, it was rejected outright."

At that time, Sui Xi had already made some moves, and He Lianjin was devastated.

Even though trade is mutually beneficial, in terms of importance, this commercial route is obviously more important to the Northern Yin. After all, the Northern Yin is not comparable to the huge Liang Chu in terms of population or geographical location.

Therefore, Dugu Che did not hold out hope.

He never expected that Gu Yuan would exchange such an important matter.

And the purpose was just for him to prevent He Liansheng from going into danger.

He stared at Gu Yuan for a while, the dealings he had with the other party these days had already made it unnecessary for him to confirm the authenticity of this sentence.

After a while, he spoke meaningfully: "Lord Gu cares more about Xiao Sheng than I thought.

Gu Yuan paused.

"I like him." He said softly.

When he was young, Gu Yuan never thought that he would say such a sentence in front of others.

At that time, his heart was as small as taking care of the family and as big as the people's livelihood, but he had no love.

Meng Gan once laughed at him, saying that if he was so confused, it would be bad luck for any girl to follow him in the future.

These words became a prophecy.

It's just that it wasn't a girl who followed him, and what he encountered wasn't just his incomprehensible style.

In the past, because of his self-righteous arrogance and aloofness, and because he hated the ambiguous and teasing eyes of others, he was always reluctant to be with He Liansheng, even though everyone knew that they were married.

Before he took revenge on He Liansheng, this reluctance to show it was more open and aboveboard, but after that misunderstanding, it was a complete deception.

It's not that he has never seen the disappointed look in He Liansheng's eyes. On that day, he was proud of his spring breeze, but he left He Liansheng at home alone.

He knew that He Liansheng was really sad. Thinking about it now, at that time, he was afraid.

He couldn't calmly accept the strange eyes of the outside world, and was afraid that He Liansheng would be really angry and give up on him, so he didn't hesitate to use his hypocrisy as a bargaining chip to tie He Liansheng to his side.

He Liansheng didn't know anything, but carried his disgusting and shady desires and struggles.

And now...

He wanted to tell everyone this sentence, but He Liansheng didn't care anymore, and he didn't have this opportunity anymore.

He looked at Dugu Che, and Dugu Che also looked at him, with some surprise in his eyes.

Gu Yuan took a deep breath, and was about to continue negotiating conditions with Dugu Che on the topic of business, when the other party had already opened his mouth.

"Master Gu." He paused, "You know, why I asked you in the first place, does Xiao Sheng know that you are looking for me?"

Gu Yuan was startled.

"Perhaps." Dugu Che looked at him and said slowly, "Master Gu, you still don't know him as well as you imagined."

Originally, Dugu Che did not put He Liansheng in the consideration list.

Although he knew that if he wanted to choose someone to accompany the army to negotiate with Liang Chu, then He Liansheng was the most suitable candidate.

but……

"When Xiao Sheng came to see me." He said, "He just said what I was thinking about."

"Gu Yuan." He smiled, "The reason why you come to me to persuade him not to go is because you still feel in your bones that he is being willful. But it's not like that."

"Since it's my own family, let's just open up and talk about it." He took a sip of tea slowly, "Master Gu, you must know who the two generals at the border are now?"

Gu Yuan moved his lips: "It's General Wu, and..."

"Your Highness Fifth Prince." Dugu Che took over his words, "That's Xiao Sheng's real brother."

"The fifth prince is cold and serious, but his thoughts are thorough and upright." Dugu Che said, "If Xiao Sheng goes, think about it, even if the two brothers haven't seen each other for many years, he will give him some kind of face."

Gu Yuan clenched his palms tightly: "But..."

"Besides." Dugu Che looked at him, "Even Mr. Gu, you actually don't know much about our Northern Yin. But Xiao Sheng is different."

He Liansheng stayed in Northern Yin for four years. Before that, he had lived in the power center of the capital for almost 20 years. He was the only one who knew both Northern Yin and Liang Chu and was able to mediate in it.

He also has enough sanity and intelligence to handle this.

"These..." Gu Yuan opened his mouth, "Did he tell you?"

Dugu Che laughed: "Otherwise, do you think I would agree to him casually?"

Gu Yuan lowered his eyes.

He remembered the secret joy in his heart when He Liansheng stopped him and got angry at him at the beginning.

He was wondering if He Liansheng stopped him because he was worried about him.

is not it……

I'm afraid he won't come back.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Dugu Che was right.

He claims to like He Liansheng, but he doesn't know him at all. In other words, he has already noticed that the other party is not as willful and willful as he appears on the surface. He is very smart and calm. He is a complete person, not him. little tail——

This was even the place that attracted him and made him unconsciously tempted, but he never paid attention to it.

His nails dug deeply into the palm.

four years ago.

he thinks.

For four full years, he still hasn't learned how to like someone.

"Thank you." He opened his mouth, his voice hoarse.

Dugu Che looked at him, paused, and suddenly changed the subject.

"You came this time," he said, "to take him away, right?"

Gu Yuan was silent for a moment.

"Yes." He said.

Then, he paused, and said softly: "...I will not force him, if he is willing to stay in Beiyin, I..."

"I'll be here with him."

He climbed to this position originally to avenge He Liansheng, but when he found out that He Liansheng was still alive, he added one more thing, when He Liansheng came back, he could protect him.

For these two things, he planned little by little to become the emperor's close minister above ten thousand people.

Before leaving, he told Meng Gan that he wanted to bring him back, but now, he figured it out.

He spent so much effort, except for the ambition he had when he first started studying, in the final analysis, it was just for He Liansheng.

The Helian family's Jiangshan Sheji does not lack a courtier of him, and the Gu family has more than one child.

As long as He Liansheng is happy.

if only……

He Liansheng was willing to have him by his side.

Anything is fine.
