Mo Yun quickly went to find Su He.
It was only at this moment that Wangchuan noticed the imperial edict in Wei Yi's hands, and he proceeded to pull it out. He carefully opened it and took a look, almost to the point of being shocked.
On the imperial edict, it was clearly written that they were to grant the marriage to Wei Yi and her.
Could it be that Wei Yi had returned with an imperial edict after entering the palace today, and it was for her sake … Wei Yi had truly done far, far too much.
Wu Chuan felt that his hand that held the imperial edict was trembling slightly, but he didn't say much.
Then, Wei Yi stretched out his hand to pull Wu Chuan tightly. ”Wu Chuan … ”From now on, you are the Regional Commander's …” Wei Yi looked at Wu Chuan for ten thousand years.
At the side, Zhixiang was trying her best to resist the uneasiness on her face.
Very quickly, Su He carried Wei Yi back.
”...”
The night was cold and desolate, the moon was bright and sparse. Gu Zheng sat alone in the private room of the Drunken Immortal Tavern.
The table was already filled with the aged red of a woman. It could be seen that Gu Zheng had been drinking it for a long time, and the fragrance of the wine floated and stained the room.
Currently, Gu Zheng's eyes were blurry, and his usually cold face was flushed.
Gu Zheng could no longer clearly see the wine cup in front of him, but he still stubbornly wanted to pick up the nearby cup.
He raised the wine cup and swayed it in the air. 'Gulu gulu', he placed the wine cup into his own mouth.
A few drops of wine flowed from Gu Zheng's pointed lower jaw into his collar, and Gu Zheng paid no heed to the wine that spilled onto his luxurious black robe.
”Servants, bring the wine!” Gu Zheng shook the wine jar, but there was nothing inside so he shouted at the waiter who was waiting outside.
As the waiter walked in, the heavy smell of alcohol filled the room, causing the waiter to almost be unable to hold back and cough loudly.
The waiter walked up with a smiling face and said carefully, ”Master Gu, y-you've already drunk quite a bit today. Our store is about to close for the night, what do you think?”
”Bang!” When Gu Zheng heard the waiter's words, he slammed the table heavily and abruptly straightened his body, staring at the waiter with wide eyes that were filled with fury.
”This little one doesn't dare, I … Please calm your anger, milord.”
The waiter had never been under such intense pressure before. His head was lowered and his legs that were as thin as bamboo shakily trembled with all their might.
Gu Zheng saw a pair of long and narrow eyes full of mockery. Easily, his entire person seemed to have dispersed as he sat on a stool and retreated from the waiter.
Gu Zheng was the only one left in the large box. He shook the many wine jugs, and there was not a drop of wine left in them.
”Heh.” Gu Zheng scoffed, stood up, shook his sleeves, and staggered out of the Drunken Immortal Tavern.
Wisps of cold wind seeped into Gu Zheng's thin clothes. The moonlight that was as clear as water stretched Gu Zheng's silhouette very long, and he looked especially lonely, even looking slightly bedraggled.
Gu Zheng's body swayed as he staggered along the road, walking aimlessly. He himself did not know what had happened recently.
His heart felt like it was being ruthlessly clenched. It was so stuffy and painful that he went out to buy wine and eat alone.
Gu Zheng's eyes were hazy as he looked at the road ahead. He stood in his original spot for a long time, as if he was unable to find a child at home.
At this time, it was already deep into the night. The wind, which was as cool as water, blew up Gu Zheng's hair, waking him up from his drunken stupor.
Xia Yuan was afraid that something might happen to his master, so he followed from afar. However, seeing that Gu Zheng had stumbled a few steps and was about to fall to the ground, he hurriedly went to support him.
Gu Zheng's mouth was still mumbling with reason. ”Forgetfulness …”
Beside him, Xia Wei's master was also pained, ”If you want to forget about it, you can just go and see her when the time comes.”
Xia Yuan was also one of the three largest families under Gu Zheng, and his relationship with Wu Chuan was usually very good. After all, they had grown up together, and they often went on missions together, so he had some understanding of Wu Chuan, including the matter of Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng was drunk to the point of drunkenness, he had no other thoughts. He only felt as if his mouth was filled with the bitterness of having even Huang Lian, but his heart felt even more bitter.
In his mind, he could not help but recall that beautiful and indifferent face of Wu Chuan from the past. Once this person appeared in his mind, it would be hard to forget him.
Suddenly, a bold idea emerged in his mind. Without a moment of thought, he took large strides forward.
Before long, Gu Zheng slowly made his way to the Wei Residence's tightly shut doors.
The Wei Residence's doors were tightly shut. The mighty stone lion in front of the gates was showing its might to Gu Zheng, not allowing outsiders to step in.
Gu Zheng squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment. His mystical clothes fluttered as he turned around and walked towards the side door of the Wei Residence.
Standing by the wall for a while, Gu Zheng steadied his somewhat weak body. After gathering his strength for a while, he quietly and stealthily flipped his body into the side wall of the Wei Residence.
Is already a child.
Wenchuan couldn't sleep in the room, so he simply put on a simple plain white brocade robe with a budding plum blossom embroidered on it. From afar, it looked very lifelike.
Wangchuan wandered aimlessly within the Wei Residence, as if he was dispersing all the complicated thoughts in his mind.
Suddenly, he heard some movement from the short wall not too far away. He immediately raised his guard and walked towards it with light footsteps.
Wangchuan tensed, ready to fight at any moment. She slowly approached the dark wall and saw the edge of her clothes through the trees.
She frowned as she approached him. Before she could see who it was, the black shadow suddenly turned around and fiercely crashed into her.
Wu Chuan was caught unprepared, his hand clenched into a fist as he prepared to subdue the person. Unexpectedly, that person's appearance caused her to freeze on the spot.
The one who crashed into Wangchuan was the muddleheaded Gu Zheng. He had followed his memories of the Wei Residence and found his way here.
In the distance, he saw the elegant and refined figure of Wu Chuan. He didn't know why, but he hid in the bushes.
