Chapter 23 Chapter 23
At the same time, the door of the Gu residence suddenly opened.
Two big red copper doors with a height of two or three people were opened from the inside, and several servants stood behind the doors holding torches and waterproof lanterns.One of them was wearing a big fur. I don't know if he had just come back from outside or was about to go out.It was Gu Qinghou.
Surrounded by his servants, standing on a high place, he caught sight of King Rong suddenly.
But King Rong was covered in blood, shaking his body, but looking at him with dark eyes, he leaned forward and fell on his snow-white steps, at his feet.
Gu Qinghou's black eyes shone with tiny light, without blinking, he watched him fall.
He couldn't move.
It was night, Gu's mansion, Rong Wang's mansion, the garrison of the capital, and even the palace were all disturbed, the torches lit up half of the sky in the capital, and countless people went out with the old and the young to look, thinking that there was a big flood.
The doctor in the Imperial Hospital is useless tonight, and he is sleeping peacefully at home, when he suddenly hears the door break open, and the officers and soldiers from the Beijing garrison rush in, the doctor is so frightened that he almost wets the bed, he asks himself that he is not involved in any danger, and he does not know what happened tonight ?The officers and soldiers felt cold, held him by hand, but said in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, my lord, it's a nobleman who asked for help!"
He was taken away all the way, and the big stone in his heart fell to the ground, but he became suspicious again. With such a big battle, could it be that some noble person is about to give birth?
But I haven't heard that the nobleman is lucky.
The doctor was brought up to Gu's residence, and he bumped into the assistant doctor who was supposed to be on duty. It turned out that the four or five top doctors in the imperial hospital were all dragged here.
All the imperial physicians were invited into Uncle Gu's bedroom. Outside the bedroom courtyard, almost all the male and female servants in Gu's mansion held their breaths and waited for orders.
In the outer hall of the bedroom, the doctor was wiping his sweat, trotted in, bent down and said to Gu Qinghou: "My lord, King Rong was hit by a knife in front of him, and an arrow was shot behind him, and the blade was stabbed obliquely..."
Gu Qinghou had just returned from the palace, his black clothes were still cold, he stood where he was, quietly watching the imperial doctor and maids coming in and out of the bedroom.
After hearing Yizheng's words, he finally opened his mouth slowly, without looking at Yizheng, calm and cold, like the echo in the depths of Yama's hell, he paused every word: "Stop talking nonsense, he lives you... ..."
The doctor ran away trembling.
Gu Qinghou still stood quietly, looking at the light curtain of the bedroom.
More than three hours passed, and the sky was about to dawn.
His subordinate Li Sheng came from the place where he was escorting the pursuer, and reported the details of the torture.
"It's called Zhong Yong, the servant of Mr. Zhong's family, and the baby brother of Mr. Zhong Yuzhong... I confess that I did it all by myself, and I have no accomplices..."
Gu Qinghou's dark eyes looked at the void calmly and coldly, and he said lightly, "Check again."
He was still waiting in the outer hall, the faint sky light slanted into the room, the doctor was opening the light curtain and ran out, holding his fists and said to him: "King Rong's pulse has stabilized, but he is extremely weak, he must rest in peace. "
Hearing this, Gu Qinghou felt as if a string that had been stretched tighter and tighter suddenly relaxed, his black clothes remained motionless, but Yizheng seemed to sense that he was exhaling and inhaling, anyway, before It seems that the person in front of him is not a living person.
Gu Qinghou said slowly: "It's hard work to heal your lord."
Yizheng was terrified by him that night, and couldn't help but dodge back, "Where, where, I can't afford it, I can't afford it."
Since someone invited the imperial physician to rest, there were only two maids left in the room, and even the air was quiet.
Gu Qinghou gently opened the curtain, looking at the person lying quietly under the green gauze tent.The man's breathing was weak and calm, like a small light smoke that would never stop, maybe the smoke was too weak, maybe the air was too quiet, and he didn't dare to approach it for a while.
Gu Qinghou put down the curtain.
He returned to Kuanyuan, his temporary bedroom, where several people had already been waiting.
Li Sheng skipped the procedure from the prison and directly brought Gu Sanye up. When Gu Xiaoge saw Li Sheng, he was overjoyed at first. Knowing that his brother had returned to Beijing, he thought he was released from prison. He asked Li Sheng on the way, but Li Sheng just smiled. Gu Xiaoge felt something was wrong.
Now, Li Sheng, Gu Xiaoge, and Li Zhongquan were kneeling on the ground. Gu Xiaoge didn't know what to do, but Li Zhong was too frightened to raise his head. He faintly felt that he had committed a serious crime.
Gu Qinghou sat calmly on the chair.Li Sheng didn't know why, he obviously had nothing to do with this matter, but just looking at the people sitting there, his throat felt dry and he was inexplicably worried.He knelt down and said: "The matter has been found out, Zhong Yong confessed that he was instructed by the third master, and the third master just admitted that he obtained the whereabouts of King Rong from Li Zhong and informed Zhong Yong."
The room was extremely quiet, Gu Sanye blinked, he was yelling just now, blaming them for fussing over a molehill, but now he is silent.
Gu Qinghou's eyes never fell on anyone kneeling on the ground. He slowly got up and looked at the long table behind him. There were burnt candles on the candlestick on the long table. A large pool of candle tears melted down, and the black wick seemed to still have cold smoke remaining.
The three people kneeling tremblingly behind him, Gu Qinghou stared intently at the non-existent Leng Yan.
He had seen enough, turned around slowly, and walked towards Gu Xiaoge in the middle.From the beginning to the end, he was expressionless, did not reprimand, did not scold, and never said a single harsh word.
Until the corner of the table blocked his way, Gu Qinghou's body suddenly tensed up, he raised his foot, and unexpectedly kicked it on the table, the thick mahogany table was kicked out of thin air, hit the wall, split and collapsed from the middle!
Gu Xiaoge couldn't help shaking. Before he could raise his head, that person had already walked over and kicked him directly on the shoulder. Gu Qinghou was held back by a strong force, and his back slammed against the pillar. , he hung there in tatters, coughed lightly, "Second Brother..."
Blood rushed out of his mouth.
Gu Qinghou kept walking, walked straight to him, squatted down, pinched his face expressionlessly, his voice was low and low, as if it came from the [-]th floor of hell.
He said: "You should be lucky, I only have you as my younger brother."
Gu Xiaoge has always been flamboyant, but at this moment his hair is scattered, his chin is blood red, his lips are shaking, he is frightened, inexplicable, and even trembling.
On the morning of that day, King Rong woke up faintly, and the maid said joyfully, "My lord is awake!"
As soon as the words fell, the light curtain was lifted, and Gu Qinghou strode in. He walked to the bed, stretched out his hand to hold King Rong's movement of getting up, and pressed it on the warm chest of the man, Gu Qinghou said: " Don't move, you are wounded front and back, you need to rest and recuperate."
His hand quietly left the man's skin, hid it in the drooping sleeve, curled up involuntarily.
King Rong's aura was only slightly stronger than Yousi's. He stared at the person in front of him with slack eyes, wasting his mind, as if admiring and discerning, staring at the person in front of him.
Gu Qinghou thought that he had just woken up from a serious illness, and his thoughts were not clear yet.
He looked at the forehead that was completely exposed after lying down, and the bloodless cheeks, and tried hard to suppress the impulsive hands in his sleeves, and the faint gleam trembled in his eyes.
Gu Qinghou lowered his eyes, covered up the traces, and said lightly: "You fled outside my mansion yesterday and passed out, the people who chased you have been captured, and now they are all in prison, and you have found out some other things."
He raised his eyes, "You should have guessed last night, the Gu family must have contributed to this matter."
King Rong hid under the quilt, looked at him quietly, smiled slightly, as if sweet in a trance, "I guessed it."
Gu Qinghou's heart skipped a beat, he endured the fluttering, and slowly raised his eyelids as if stuck, "Then you still run to me?"
King Rong looked at him with eyes as light as a feather.
The moment the accident happened, I suspected that it was the Gu family's fault, but the legs and feet had their own ideas, and while afraid, they wanted to escape into his arms.
He knew that that embrace was the most dangerous embrace in the world, but out of instinct, he couldn't help but hide in it.
While trembling with fear, he greeted him intimately.
In the end, he couldn't get into the man's arms, and finally stopped outside the gate, shook a few times, and fell headlong.At this moment, he thought to himself, if he died at that time and died in front of him, that would be very good.
This absurd thought was very relieved, causing King Rong to show a weak smile.
He smiled softly: "But you saved me."
This answer is neither painful nor itchy, it makes people scratch their heads, Gu Qinghou could only say: "You saved me many years ago, I should save you."
His cheeks partly reflected the morning light, "The world is changing and upside down, your circle of friends and mine are hostile, and our interests are at odds. I know that since you obeyed my order and returned to Beijing, you have been worried every day...but don't worry, I will never touch you."
No. 1 in the current court with authority in his hand, with a red mouth and a white tongue, promised him personally, what is this?King Rong suddenly got a clear sentence and was stunned for a moment.
His chest was immediately sore and soft, as if soaked in honey, if he wasn't weak, he could immediately hug the quilt and roll around twice.
King Rong's cheeks flushed slightly, like a deer in a panic, he couldn't speak for a moment.
Gu Qinghou couldn't bear it anymore, his left hand rushed out from the hidden sleeve, and gently stroked the forehead of the person under him.
How many nights of tossing and turning, turned the initial request but not being able to become a demon in my heart.Normally, I can only look at this person but not touch him, but if someone touches him, I am afraid that he will be broken.Even his minor injuries and illnesses can't be seen, his heart will be numb, and his internal organs will be throbbing.
Such a person, such a person he can only imagine.In front of him last night, she fell at his feet and almost died - he took care of his family.
As if his heart was tightly held by a hand, Gu Qinghou closed his eyes, tried his best, endured it, and then withdrew his impolite, impulsive, and offending hand, pretending to be natural along the brocade quilt.
But when he touched the man's left palm, he lost control again and gently picked up his palm.Gu Qinghou's face was calm, and a voice in his heart shouted like crazy, you are crazy!You are crazy!
Pointing to the bruises from the whipping, he asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
King Rong shook his head.
Gu Qinghou heard that he couldn't help scolding, "You are a prince, why should you give him a whip? Just push it away."
King Rong lay on the bed, obediently and earnestly said, "I dare not..." He smiled frankly, not afraid of losing face, "The situation is not as good as others, we just save our lives." Gu Qinghou said plainly to him, and he also opened The skylight is no longer hidden and tucked away.
When Gu Qinghou heard this, his heart went numb again.Pity, guilt, and heartache surged in his chest like waves, and the waves turned to unprecedented heights, almost submerging the top of his head.
He felt that he could no longer stay by King Rong's side, he was probably going crazy.
