He went straight to the point, and the king didn't beat around the bush, and smiled: "It's good that you understand Gu's meaning."

Mo Xi was silent for a while, and said: "Gu Mang is my best friend, if I abandon him in his current state, it will be chilling."

"Yeah. It's good to be affectionate and righteous, and Gu didn't let you stay away from him forever." Junshang's slender fingers fiddled with the beads, "However, he is now wearing a sinful body. Mr. Xihe should not do the tongue-in-cheek thing, right?"

"He is not afraid of the shadow slanting, he is kind to me. It would be inappropriate for me to persuade him a few words. What's more, Gu Mang's mood is gloomy now. If no one is with him, he will probably..."

"What can you do?"

Mo Xi gritted his teeth and said, "There is a betrayal in my heart."

He didn't know what Gu Mang was thinking back then, and he didn't think that Gu Mang had any intention of rebellion.But now that he already knew the following story, the purpose of saying this sentence at this time was to remind the emperor not to push Gu Mang too hard.

Hearing the words, Jun Shang paused the movements of his hands, and then said with a smile: "Is it that Xihe Jun has no confidence in his best friend?"

Mo Xi said: "I only hope that your lord will not cut off his retreat."

"The back road?" Nostrils snorted, "His road was opened by the first emperor. Otherwise, he is a slave, so what qualifications does he have to go into battle and make contributions? Said to cut off his back road... he I don't even think about the way he would go in this life if he didn't have the kindness of the first gentleman! Wouldn't he be mediocre and become a Murong Lian's dog?"

"..."

Your Majesty narrowed his eyes dangerously, and continued: "As long as Gu Mang has a little self-knowledge, he should think of his glory yesterday, thanks to the gift of his predecessor. Now that he has made a mistake in leading the army, he has to deal with it according to the law, so there is nothing to complain about." !"

Mo Xi originally came to the king's city first, just to ask for permission from the king and postpone his departure from the city, but he unexpectedly triggered such a conversation with the king.

The Junshang eight years ago was like a fox that hadn't attained enlightenment yet, and couldn't hide his heart well from Mo Xi eight years later.

He couldn't even restrain the look in his eyes that were too wary of Mo Xi.

"What wronged him? Why did he feel unfair? Why would he want to betray?"

The words were ruthless, and Mo Xi's blood turned cold when he heard them - he had never heard these words from the mouth of the king before.Now that he heard it, as a nobleman, he could hear it with chills, let alone Gu Mang?

What's more, it's Gu Mang who lost tens of thousands of soldiers, the remnants were detained, the tombstone couldn't be retrieved, and his brother was about to be executed.

At this moment, Mo Xi suddenly realized so clearly that before Gu Mang dragged himself to drink, and when he was drunk, he cried and said that he couldn't stand it and would rather die than live. That was not a temporary impulse after drinking.

Gu Mang really broke down that day.

Chonghua sent him to the battlefield, but he didn't think that Gu Mang and his poor army were defending the territory for Chonghua, but thought it was a favor bestowed to slaves by the powerful.So his failure is unforgivable, because in the eyes of the king, Gu Mang's defeat was not a momentary loss of a loyal general, but a servant who had benefited and failed to do what his master entrusted him with.In vain let down the trust of the master.

Perhaps Gu Mang's heart was already broken when he realized this point. From the inside, it was broken into slag pieces and rubbed into ashes bit by bit...

It's just that I didn't realize it back then.

Gu Mang actually believed it so naively, and then he seemed to be heartless and laughing.

After all, he didn't understand Gu Mang.

Suppressing the throbbing pain and trembling in his heart, Mo Xi's Adam's apple twitched, and he said hoarsely: "Your Majesty, you are not him. You don't know exactly what he thinks and what the bottom line is. If one day he really betrays..."

Your Majesty interrupted: "He dare not."

"..."

It's so ridiculous, standing in front of Junshang eight years ago, to hear Junshang self-righteously saying that Gu Mang didn't dare to treason.

"He didn't dare, and he wouldn't." Jun Shang said, "Where does Mr. Xihe think he can betray? In the past, Hua Po secretly rebelled against Hua Po and rebuilt the country because he had a group of remnants of slaves in his hands." ——But what does Gu Mang have in his hands? The remnants of his army have been detained in prison alone, but you tell me, what can he do with his own strength? "

"Does your majesty think that he won't go away alone?"

Your Majesty almost grinned sneeringly: "If he can't figure it out that much, then let's go."

"!"

"He suffered a loss in the battle of Fengming Mountain, so Gu can no longer use him. If he thinks that he will turn against him, it means that it will be a disaster for this person to stay in the territory of Chonghua sooner or later." After finishing speaking, your majesty stared at Mo Xi Gradually pale face, "Mr. Xihe, do you think it will be useful for you to persuade him and stay with him? If he is rebellious, it means that he really wants too much!"

The most heartless imperial heart.Your Majesty paused, then said coldly, "Gu, I can't afford it."

The blood seemed to be frozen, and the limbs and bones were frozen.Mo Xi clenched his fingers into fists, and said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, what he wants is a tombstone with a name and a surname!"

"That's not a tombstone." Jun Shang said, "Xihe Jun. What he asks for is the recognition of their status as a group of people. I'm sorry, but I can't give them honor."

Mo Xi said angrily, "So why did you send me to leave in three days? After three days, Lu Zhanxing asked me, did you want to see if Gu Mang would still be loyal to Chonghua and you after losing another arm?!"

Jun Shang's face suddenly darkened: "Xihe Jun, don't be presumptuous."

"He can't stand your majesty's temptation anymore." Mo Xi ignored it and said almost tremblingly, "...I can sue in front of the palace today. If your majesty insists on doing it, Gu Mang...will definitely turn against him."

Jun Shang Huo Di got up and shot the case angrily as if drawing his sword out of its sheath: "What does it matter if he rebels?! He is just a dog! Even if the kindness and revenge are betrayed to Chonghua, will our country fall apart or disappear? I just want to see if this person has ghostly thoughts, and if there is a rebellious bone under his head like Hua Poyin back then!"

After all, he is young, such sharp-edged anger, it is absolutely impossible for the current emperor to show it.

"Three days. After three days, you must be alone and leave the imperial capital." In the end, your majesty's breathing slowly slowed down, but his eyes were still fierce, staring at Mo Xi's face, "You are alone, step back."

Mo Xi had never confronted him like this before.And these words were like a knife blade drawing out the snow to shine brightly, piercing into his heart.

He didn't speak any more, and silently looked at the man on the throne.People say simplicity is in the emperor's heart, but why doesn't the emperor want to test his subjects all the time?

Especially people like Gu Mang, who are not in the same boat as the nobles, and those who are not of my race must have different hearts, so your majesty will guard against him in this way, plot against him, and even...

and many more!

I groaned in my heart.

Mo Xi suddenly thought of something - he clearly remembered Lu Zhanxing's beheading back then. Although he agreed to go to the northern border to teach spells, he originally planned to return to the city before Lu Zhanxing's beheading.

That is to say, if according to his original budget, he would have enough time to see Gu Mang for the last time before his rebellion.

But then what?

The more I think about it, the colder it gets...

Later... there was an accident in the northern border, and many monsters broke into the border. He had to stay there for a few more days, and the garrison captured these monsters, which delayed the time.Although he felt that it was strange that so many monsters came into the world all of a sudden, he didn't think too much about it. Now it seems...

Mo Xi suddenly had a vague feeling at this moment, and this feeling even made him have a very terrible idea.This was something he hadn't felt at all before——

Back then, could it be that Jun Shang deliberately dismissed Gu Mang in order to test him?

This kind of conjecture made Mo Xi feel like a piece of ice fell in his heart, and the slightest bit of cold air spread to his limbs and bones.

He suddenly realized that he left the imperial capital at this time, and the time to return to the city was delayed. Was all this deliberately done by the emperor?

Maybe Junshang didn't want Gu Mang to stay in Chonghua at all.That's why he didn't want Gu Mang to have someone by his side when he was most frustrated and painful.This old slave general has been left useless, since he can't find a suitable reason to kill him, would it be a better choice to force him to treason...?

Gu Mang's rebellion, could it be that the monarch had planned it from the very beginning?

Mo Xi felt chills all over his body. After he came out of the deep palace of the royal city where the eaves were pecking, he took it easy for a while, so that he was not so cold anymore—for a moment he really wanted to ask without hesitation, and made a fuss. up.But he understands that if he wants to know more secrets, he must let things go on the normal track.

In this mirror world, he has only one chance to discover the truth.

Once you miss it, you can never do it again.

Mo Xi raised his head and blinked his reddish eyes. He tried his best to calm down his mood slowly, so that he would not be so impulsive. Then he set off and went to the Xinghualou in the north of the city. .

He knew that Gu Mang was in this place, and Xinghualou was Gu Mang's favorite romantic spot later on. Flowers, only the warm and fragrant nephrite can relieve the bitterness and hatred in his heart.

When he came to the Xinghua Building where the red silk was fluttering, Mo Xi stopped.Looking up at the plaque with gold letters on a red background.

When he left Wangcheng eight years ago, he also passed by this place and stopped in front of Huashu Fangfei's building.But he didn't go in at that time - he couldn't bear Gu Mang's depraved behavior at that time, and he couldn't bear the people he had sex with before lying in the rouge and vulgar fans.

He felt his heart hurt, so he went to the north without saying goodbye to Gu Mang.

Because of this, he missed the last meeting with Gu Mang before the rebellion.

But not this time.

This time, he wanted to have a sincere talk with Gu Mang.Just like what he had imagined countless times, just like what he had done in dreams countless times.

Mo Xi straightened his mind, clenched his fingers tightly in his palm, and walked into the romantic scene of Yan Yuying.

"Oh, Mr. Xihe." The madam couldn't help being startled when she saw him, thinking about the last time Mo Xi came to the building to search for someone, she hurriedly said in fear, "Mr. Xihe came here today, what is the matter?" ?”

"Where is Gu Mang?"

"...Gu Shuai, he is not, not here..."

"I know he's here with you." Mo Xi said, "Which room."

"..." The madam met his sharp frost-blade eyes and couldn't help shivering. She felt sorry for Gu Shuai. The shop was a small business and couldn't stand Xi Hejun's toss.So he changed into a greasy smiling face, "Ahahaha, Mr. Xihe, look at my memory, yes, yes, I remembered, Gu Shuai was upstairs, go to the end of the third floor and turn left and third Room, Pavilion of Yifang. Please greet Mr. Xihe."

Mo Xi walked up to the stairs without looking back.

Before he reached the Yifang Pavilion, Mo Xi heard the sound of a pipa playing from inside. He continued in a low voice, following the song girl's singing: "In the past, there was a son who carried a sword, but the blood and sand were hard to return. Now The body is still beautiful when it was last year, and this body was talked about last night. I will take care of your loyalty, and I will pass on your noble spirit. On the day when the heroic soul returns to his hometown, there are green mountains everywhere in the world."

It is Chonghua's call to death.

The singer had obviously never played and sang such a heavy piece of music in Hualou. Although she sang it down verbatim, her voice was hesitant and her sentences were soft.

A comforting song is like a phoenix seeking a phoenix, but its temperament is too bad.

Mo Xi walked to the door and stood outside the concealed red lacquer door. The sound of the pipa was ending, and the last few touches of pearls and jade fell to the ground, and then Gu Mang's lazy laughter came from inside.

Just such a slight sound, already made Mo Xi's heart skip a few beats.

"My sister's voice is as mellow as an oriole, but there is a section that is played too fast, and the song is wrong."

The singing girl said coquettishly: "They didn't sing these before, they can't play well, it will make Gu Shuai laugh."

Gu Mang smiled and said, "What's the point? You are the only ones who are willing to mess around with me and sing this soul-sacrificing song with me in private...Come on, the part you played wrong, I'll play it." Let me teach you."

"Can Gu Shuai also play the pipa?"

"I can't learn such a difficult fingering." Gu Mang said, "But I can use other instruments."

The room was quiet for a while, and Gu Mang said in a nonchalant way: "Storm, call."

turmoil...

Mo Xi closed his eyes, his fingers hanging in front of the door trembled slightly, and suddenly there was a clear sound of suona in the room, so lame, so funny... even ridiculous.

But his eyelashes were moist at this moment.

It was the voice of martial arts that Gu Mang could no longer summon later—the lingering hatred after the storm.

Mo Xi's throat was extremely bitter and astringent, and he remained silent for a long time, as if he was feeling timid from his hometown, and his heart was in a mess.Finally, he took a deep breath, resisted the intense dizziness before his eyes, raised his hand, and gently pushed open the vermilion lacquer carved door.

The sky is scattered.

In this dreamlike light and shadow, he saw Gu Mang.

Gu Mang eight years ago.

Although he had already prepared, when he actually saw that person, the old scar on Mo Xi's heart was pierced by an invisible sharp knife!The severe pain spread rapidly from the heart to all the limbs, numb and trembling with pain.

——He saw the black-eyed Gu Mang who was conscious again, dressed in heavy clothes.

Complete, healthy, not yet treasonable, carrying their common memory...

Gu Shuai of the empire.

His Senior Brother Gu.

The author has something to say:

Gu Shuai: Get out of the way! !I'm online now! ! ! !
