emperor of a dynasty

Chapter 86 Extra Story: Those Years I Missed 2

Marriage is naturally not something that you can resign if you want to. After all, it was the marriage that the king opened his mouth. In addition, the old general himself agreed with this relationship, so no matter what Gu Ming said, the old general disagreed, "You married Princess Qinghe is a member of the royal family, and when your position is promoted in the future, no one will make irresponsible remarks, are you stupid?" The old general told her all the good and bad things, But Gu Ming just disagreed, and the old general was so angry that he wanted to kick her, "Then you don't want to marry the princess, you have to have a reason, right?!"

She lowered her head and said nothing.

The old general asked again, "You can't let the old man go to the king and say that you are not worthy of the princess by name, and you don't agree with this relationship?"

She still didn't speak, it seemed that she had acquiesced, and the old general laughed angrily at her, "Are you stupid? Is the king's sister still worried about getting married? If it weren't for you in front of such a person in the imperial garden that day Ruined the innocence of His Royal Highness, do you think such a good thing will be your turn?"

"I, I really can't marry the princess..." She kept saying this, and the old general got tired of hearing it, and said, "You are a fifth-rank young general, what ability do you have to refuse the king's marriage? Hurry up!" Get lost, old man, go back and prepare the wedding room, get lost..."

Gu Ming had no choice but to go back to his mansion first. He couldn't think of any way to refuse the marriage after thinking about it. In the middle of the night, someone came to the palace and said it was the king. Urgently summon her to the palace.Gu Ming hurriedly went to the palace. Along the way, he thought that the king knew that he was a daughter. Before he left, he even explained his funeral to the butler. Who knew that it was Xiangguo after he arrived at the palace. Assassinated in the state of Chu, the king wanted to send troops to suppress the situation.

She and the old general Gongsun Ju knelt in the imperial study room, with a cold expression on their faces, and it seemed that they were the king who was already on the verge of rage and said:

"Minister Gongsun Ju, I have seen the king."

"Your name, I have met the king."

Seeing them, the king's expression seemed to be a little better, but it was still very smelly, "The two generals are free from courtesy."

"Hi."

"Hi."

The two of them had just stood up, and the king asked the servant to show them a letter. After seeing it, Gu Ming understood why the king's expression was so cold. The reason why the minister was assassinated when he was sent to another country?Still in the royal capital!Isn't this despising their Qin State? !

The old general Gongsun Ju who was on the side stepped forward after reading it and said, "I would like to lead the troops into Chu and bring back His Highness the Crown Prince and Prime Minister Yan!"

Wang Shangban raised his eyes and said, "How many people does the general need to bring?"

The old general said, "Go back to the king, and I am willing to lead three thousand troops to bring back His Highness and Prime Minister Yan."

Gu Ming stood aside and thought about it. She knew that the old general meant that if he brought too many people with him, he was afraid that the King of Chu would be embarrassed, and he would say that they, the State of Qin, led troops into Chu. Okay, but the inexplicable lack of confidence, but I don't know why, Gu Ming felt that the king might not agree with the old general's plan.

Sure enough, the king frowned after hearing this and said, "Is the prince and the chancellor of a country set up by a lonely person only worth three thousand Qin troops to meet? Since the king of Chu can let the lonely Xiangguo be assassinated in his capital, the Chu country must also be killed." It's not a safe place, so Gongsun Aiqing should bring more people there, don't let the king of Chu think that the lonely Xiangguo and the crown prince are easy to bully."

"Then...according to the king's intention, how many people should I bring with me?"

The young king sneered and said, "There is no war, so let's take 30 Qin troops and go for a walk."

Gu Ming stood aside and listened to the king's righteous words. For some reason, she actually wanted to laugh a little, because the king looked like a wild cat protecting food.

Just as she was thinking, the king called her again, "General Gu."

"The minister is here." She clasped her fists and said.

"Guming, you pick ten people in the army who are good at martial arts, smart, ride fast horses, and rush to the capital of the king of Chu immediately without sleep. Continue talking, if the king of Chu wants to embarrass Xiangguo, hum, you can use the Qin sword in your hand to cut off his head alone! General Gongsun led an army of 30 to approach the Chu line, and everyone in Qin can be an army, don't worry Do it boldly——Isn’t the king of Chu not looking at the country of Qin? Let him take a look at Gu today, and provoke the end of my country of Qin! Isn’t it just a war? The country of my country is all fighting Yes! Gu is afraid of him?!!!”

She lowered her eyebrows and said in command, "—Hi."

The road to Chu State was very bumpy. Gu Ming and his party of ten people finally arrived at the inn where Xiangguo and the crown prince lived after running to the death of several horses. That pale face imitated the appearance of the king and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiangguo."

Hearing this, the pale woman was stunned for a moment, then took the bunch of candied haws, looked at it for a while, and finally laughed out of helplessness and connivance. At that time, Gu Ming felt the relationship between the king and Xiangguo. So good, so good that she felt envious.Xiangguo said that she and the king had known each other when they were young, and now it has been many years. When she asked her if she had any companions when she was young, Gu Ming was stunned for a long time, thinking of Chen Sheng who had died on the battlefield, and suddenly said, "No, they are all dead." gone."

Not even the corpse.

Hearing this, Xiangguo patted her on the shoulder lightly, although he was younger than her, he comforted her like a sister, "I'm sorry..."

She smiled, and then didn't know what to say.

It has been like this since ancient times that Wen dies and Wu fights to the death, so she thinks that Xiangguo doesn't need to say sorry, but occasionally, sometimes in the dead of night, when Gu Ming thinks of those partners who enlisted with her in the past, she will always There are some disappointments, if those people are still alive, it must be another kind of scenery.

She is always a woman, sentimental, not a person who is suitable to be a general on the battlefield.

After hearing this, Xiangguo just said that she was thinking too much. Of course, she didn't say the previous sentence when she talked to Xiangguo. She never told Xiangguo that she was a woman. She thought that this secret would be taken to the grave by herself, but when she came back from Chu State, she saw Murong Xi in her mansion, and saw the princess with bright eyes and bright teeth.

She is a fifth-rank military general. In the capital city, an official like her can say that she is not big or small, but according to the etiquette system, she still has her own mansion in the capital city, but it is not big.She came back from the state of Chu, rode back to her mansion, and saw that the house in front of her was cleaned up, the weeds were removed, two pots of evergreen were planted in front of the gate, and the door was painted with new paint. The small courtyard... I was stunned, this is her mansion?

The housekeeper knew she was back, so he came out to welcome her into the house, Gu Ming asked the housekeeper if the house had been renovated?

The butler smiled and said, "It has been renovated."

"You still understand this?" She pointed to the Evergreen planted by the door, then looked at her subordinates who had been with her for many years, and said, "I don't see it."

The Gu family said that it was the Master Qinghe who made it.

"Princess Qinghe?" After more than a month, when someone mentioned this name again, Gu Ming still didn't react.

"Yes, a few days after you left, Princess Qinghe came to the door with a gift, saying thank you for saving your life, but you were not here, so I told her, the princess is easy to talk, but just before leaving the house Seeing that our small courtyard is a bit dilapidated, I said that we need to repair it for the New Year's Eve. I thought about it, and I didn't have many acquaintances in Beijing, so I agreed." The housekeeper saw that she was not very big. Happy, he explained.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ming became even more unhappy after hearing this, frowned and said, "Nonsense, how can the majestic princess come to renovate the courtyard for the courtiers?!"

Monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons...how can the ethics of Gangchang be chaotic?

Seeing this, the steward hurriedly explained that he had never let the county take the initiative, "I wouldn't dare even if you lent me ten courage. Corner was sent by the Princess to move here, um...cultural people have a good eye, look at how well we have made this small courtyard."

Gu Ming scolded the housekeeper, "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up, prepare your things, and follow me to the princess's mansion to say thank you."

Before they could finish speaking, the princess they were talking about came over. Seeing this, she immediately knelt down and saluted to the princess, "The guilty minister has seen the princess."

Hearing this, the highness smiled lightly and asked her, "What is the general's crime?"

She lowered her eyebrows and didn't dare to raise her head, "The guilty minister was not very good in the palace that day... You should die if you treat His Royal Highness lightly and lightly!"

"Since the general saved me, why do you blame the general for saying that?" His Highness said so, then stepped forward to help her up, smiled softly at her, and said with the bright eyes and bright teeth in his memory, "I haven't thanked her yet. The general's life-saving grace." His voice was soft and soft, which is rare in a daughter's family.

It's not that she can't hear His Highness's intention of being close, and it's not that she can't understand that the other party is really interested in her. It's just that she can't think about it, let alone understand that there are too many lies she has carried in her life, and they are long gone. If she believed in a person's courage, naturally, she would never expect to have everything beautiful for herself.

Including that Highness.

On that year's New Year's Eve, the king brought Xiangguo to her mansion suddenly, saying that he wanted to marry her. Gu Ming looked at the young king, and then at the princess standing not far away, and looked down. Eyebrows, said shyly, "I don't dare to deceive the emperor, I... I have a reason why I can't get married!"

She looked at the princess in fleece standing under the tree, and saw the face of the other party changed after hearing her say this, her heart was desolate, she didn't know why she suddenly became nervous, But never thought that the dignified and beautiful king would ask her calmly after hearing this:

"You can't understand?"

At that moment, Gu Ming suddenly remembered the incident that Xiangguo and her talked about in the state of Chu when Wang Shang was young and went to the Imperial College, because he was dissatisfied with the too much homework given to her by his husband, so he set fire to his study... Coupled with the words that the king just said, Gu Ming came to a conclusion in his heart, that is, her king is not the dignified, wise and calm king that the ministers said, let alone the one who appears on the surface. It looks so well-behaved and pleasant, at least... there are a lot of colorful intestines.
