Gu Yun was startled, this was completely different fro responded with reason: “The Western Regions is already being keep guarded of by yifu’s Black Iron Ca there would only cause e for ”
Although this was also Gu Yun’s intention, but with Chang Geng uncovering it directly as such, he still felt as if he was being splashed with cold water He could barely keep his expression unchanged and said: “Then… that is alright as well, going back to the capital to listen to politics is also good My old teacher has soo : “Isn’t that just the sa of the narrow hallway, Jiangnan’s bright golden sunlight was shi+ning down the garden full of countless spring flowers blooh the flowers appeared energetic now, in fact, the bloo period only lasted for about ten days to a halfbefore they wilted away
Fortunately as they bloorow in a desolated mountain, they could only quietly show their beauty, then quietly wither to the ground, life and death separated only by the blink of an eye, surrounded by only a few mindless birds and animals: ould be there to understand?
Floere like this, and so were the many unnecessary love and hate e: “Yifu, there are a lot of gifted individuals around Master Liao Ran I wish to travel with the…”
What is this nonsense?
Before he could even finish, Gu Yun had already interrupted hi turned and looked at him silently
Hidden in the eyes of the juvenile standing with his back against the light were unexplainable things that Gu Yun had never noticed before At this tihtly taken aback
He immediately realized that his tone of voice just noas a bit harsh, he softened his expression and said, “If you want to go out to play, wait after you have returned to the capital, ask Uncle wang to arrange a few guards fro, you are not allowed to go to any place where there is no imperial station Every time you arrive at a station, you must sendsaid faintly: “Eat well and dress well throughout all the way as such, it would only be all the ht as well go offer incense at Hu Guo te misses and madams, it would save more money and effort that way”
Gu Yun: “…”
This kid actually learned how to talk back!
He also topped it up with flowery and well-hidden sarcasnan’s beautiful springtiht: “How can he still not listen, was it because I paan to sound impatient: “The land is vast, the people are wicked, what fun is there to have? Thataway, he could only ask for food If so were to happen to you on your travel with him, what am I supposed to explain to the Forht indifferently “It really is because of having to explain to the former emperor If he knew that I was only a little bastard child no one knehere Xiu Niang got froe, he would be furious to the point of co back to life to kill me”
Every time he looked at Gu Yun, he felt that his heart was cut by a knife, his sin growing larger and heavier, he wished nothing more than to immediately flee But the other o
Unknown to Gu Yun, for a short period of tiave birth to an irrational and lingering hatred towards him, but fortunately, he had quickly co retracted his eyes froo, whatever path Ias it is the path I want for myself It’s only been a few days yet you have taken back your words?”
Gu Yun’s heart burst into flah carefully for yourself, you call this ‘thinking carefully’?”
Chang Geng: “I truly think so”
“No, think again! Find ht about it carefully” Gu Yun did not want to scold hi watched his retreating figure, brushi+ng off the petals on his shoulder There were sounds of footsteps co fro: “For the Master to witness such a scene, how e, thehis head in and out for a long ti that Gu Yun had left, he finally showed his face with relief, he signed: “The Marquis bears good intentions”
Chang Geng looked down at his hands, they were already covered in a thin layer of callus, but they had not yet been honed by scars
He said indifferently: “I don’t want to beco who could only rely on his kindness”
“This hness was a bit extree, uidance and protection of their parents With Your Highness’s standard, wouldn’t it mean everyone in this world is inco arrogant”
Chang Geng did not answer, of course, he did not put it in hness’s face, the poison must have already eaten its way to your bones”
Chang Geng was shocked; he first assumed the man had found out about the Bone of Impurity in him
However, the monk continued to say: “There are poisons in the hearts of all people, sohness, it should not have acted up as such, you have been thinking toosmiled sadly: “What do you know?”
He always felt that everything around him— royal status, false identity,… were all stolen for hi One day, so of the
Unease and anxiety had beco always felt that in this capital, he was only an outsider
Gu Yun standing in the position of the Fourth Prince to planned his future for hi found that he wasn’t able to put his heart into it
Every day, looking in thein thetheir best to dress hion But even with more decorations, in the end, he remained to be a worm, who could never reach the rank of nobility
another way to call the worms
In this case, it was better to distance himself away now, to prevent any future embarrassment
Only Gu Yun, all the joys and sorrows theinto his bones, not a single hint of insincerity He could not deceive hio of him easily, just that he often feels he was not worthy
Chang Geng did not repriether again and asked: “Ah, yes Master, I have alanted to ask you, in the end, the illness that my yifu had, what exactly is it? His behavior on the trip to the Eastern Sea was very strange, but he had refused to tell me”
The monk hurriedly shook his head: “Amitabha, thisfrowned “Hi, even you would help hiht for no reason” He smiled “If he does not want to mention this matter, it is not because he was afraid that others will know of his weaknesses, but perhaps because this is the ingrown scale on his body and the poison in his heart – ould dare to touch the Marquis of Order’s sensitive hness, please spare this ht
It was not easy for Gu Yun to escape froolden sand of the desert, for these few days, he had intended to go take a good look at the sceneries of Jiangnan, go for a horse ride, go for a boat ride on the lake, admire a few beautiful ladies In short, he had intended to play to his heart’s content before leaving
But in the end, two sentences fro put in his roo at Chang Geng was enough to ry, sa at Liao Ran
The two rascals of Yao’s fa on the flute one after another, like a pair of noisy parrots
As Gu Yun listened to these off-tone notes, he reht out of his hand and beca for yifu before? How did he change this quickly?
How pitiful are the fates of parents and their children — see in the end
Even true faers like them, where there were not even blood-connection
In the evening, a Black Eagle soldier landed in the courtyard: “Grand Marshal, General Shen sent a letter”
Gu Yun surpressed his rage, received the letter and took a look, only to find that it was co talks, the letter on had three words written in it — urgent, hurry back
Shen Yi, fro life and death situation with hi that he hadn’t seen before If there were no urgent e him
Soldier: “Marshal, you see…”
Gu Yun: “I know, no need to reply, ill depart to Geng yet, Gu Yun first intended to ignore hiain, but noith Shen Yi urging him back like this, there was no other option He walked around his room back and forth twice, thenhis sword in the courtyard Gu Yun stood watching him for a moment, then suddenly turned to draw out the sword of the Black Eagle soldier The soldier still had his equipments on, the width of the heavy sword’s blade was the size a grown adult’s hand, Gu Yun picked it up as if it was only a feather broom: “Be careful”
His voice has not finished yet but his sword had cut through the air, sweeping by Chang Geng fir for even one step
“He had ith in it now”
