Leng Shuang stopped, turned around and asked, "What's the bet?"
"I bet you will fall in love with me within five days." A smile appeared on Gu Tingyu's face, and there was confidence in that smile.
"Okay, I bet." Leng Shuang nodded.
"If you lose, you will be my wife forever." Gu Tingyu added.
"What if I win?" Leng Shuang asked with raised eyebrows, "My condition is very simple. I don't need you to marry me. I just hope you won't provoke me in the future, and when I'm not in the general's mansion, don't touch me."
I."
"Don't worry about this," Gu Tingyu said with a smile, "I, Gu Tingyu's woman, don't need anyone else to touch her!"
Leng Shuang did not continue to argue with Gu Tingyu, turned around and walked out.
"Miss, where are we going?" Cuixiang asked.
"Go find my mother." Leng Shuang said, "Let's leave the general's mansion and don't let the Leng family find out."
"Well," Cuixiang nodded and said, "Miss, what should we tell the madam?"
"You'll know later." Leng Shuang smiled mysteriously, pulling Cuixiang and leaving the general's mansion quickly.
During the few days that Leng Xue stayed in the Leng family, the people in the Leng family took good care of her, even better than her previous treatment. The Leng family treated her as their own daughter. Unfortunately, she could not live here for a long time.
She must find a way to leave here, but how should she leave?
Leng Shuang thought of Gu Tingyu. She had no way out now. She could only trust Gu Tingyu. Although she didn't know who Gu Tingyu was, since Gu Tingyu could help her escape from here, he must have a way to help her leave. She couldn't be in the general's mansion.
It was a waste of time, she had to leave.
Leng Shuang walked into Gu Tingyu's yard. The servants in the yard were all busy with their work. They all knew Leng Shuang and knew that Leng Shuang was the second young lady, so they all respectfully called her "Second Young Lady."
Leng Shuang nodded slightly and said, "I'll come find the general."
"The general is in the back garden," a boy said.
Leng Shuang walked towards the back garden with Cuixiang. When she reached the back garden, she saw a group of guards surrounding Gu Tingyu discussing something.
"This time, we must kill these traitors, not only them, but also other members of the Leng family. We cannot let them go!"
Gu Tingyu's face was cold, his eyes bursting with intense hatred.
"General, my subordinates are brave. Please allow me to lead my brothers to kill the enemy and serve the country!" Another guard said, raising his fist high.
"Yes, General, please allow me!" Everyone said in unison.
"Okay, I'll leave this operation to you. Remember, we must wipe them all out and leave no one alive!" Gu Tingyu said in a deep voice.
"Yes," everyone knelt on the ground with a roar and shouted in unison. The deafening roar frightened Leng Shuang.
Gu Tingyu's expression softened a little. He looked sideways at Leng Shuang and said, "I know, you must think I'm cruel, but I can't help but watch the country that my father worked so hard to protect be ruined by the hands of rebellious officials and traitors.
Therefore, even if I want you to bear the infamy, I will accept it. However, if you are afraid, I can also let you stay. After all, you are my only legitimate wife, and I cannot treat you badly. "
"Hehehe..." Leng Shuang laughed, "You are wrong. You can't predict whether I will be afraid in the future. How can you predict whether I will be afraid in the future? Besides, I am no longer a legitimate wife.
Yes, all I want is freedom."
"Freedom?" Gu Tingyu murmured, and then a cold smile appeared on his lips, "Women in this world are eager to be free, but my woman, I will never let her leave me for half a step!"
Leng Shuang pursed her lips tightly and remained silent.
Leng Shuang and Cuixiang got on the carriage and drove to Zhennan Palace.
Zhennan Palace is located in the most prosperous place in the capital. It covers a vast area, with pavilions, pavilions, bridges and running water. Leng Shuang just opened the curtain and looked out, and saw that the buildings on both sides of the street were all vermilion, which looked particularly special.
Luxurious, Leng Shuang frowned slightly, she really couldn't stand this kind of tackiness.
s color.
"Miss, this mansion is so beautiful. It is worthy of being given by His Majesty the Emperor for your marriage," Cuixiang sighed. "Miss, you are really lucky to marry the general. The general has made military exploits at a young age and has a bright future.
It’s limited."
"Cuixiang, shut up." Leng Shuang glanced at Cuixiang and said, "If you dare to say anything shocking again, be careful I tear your mouth apart."
"Oh." Cuixiang muttered, she was just envious, and she was right.
"Miss Leng Shuang, you are finally here. This slave has been waiting for you for a long time. The general ordered the slave to take you to the guest room to rest." A maid came over and said.
"Lead the way." Leng Shuang said calmly.
The maid nodded and led the way. Leng Shuang looked at the surrounding environment, and her mood suddenly became complicated. The general's mansion was indeed big enough, but she didn't like it. Except for the Leng family, the rest of the people here
, including these servants, seemed to hate her, and she didn't know why, but she could feel that the people here didn't want to see her.
Leng Shuang walked behind the maid. No one greeted her along the way, and she didn't bother to pay attention.
After passing through the flower hall and arriving at the guest room, Leng Shuang opened the door and walked in. She looked at the bed and frowned. The original owner had been pampered since childhood and was used to sleeping on a big bed. Now she had a hard wooden bed. No wonder she couldn't sleep.
As a habit, after Leng Shuang lies down, he starts to close his eyes and rest.
In the past few days, Leng Shuang has not slept a wink. She cried too hard last night, so she fell asleep while lying on the bed.
It was already the morning of the third day when Leng Shuang woke up. She stretched her waist, got up from the bed, washed herself, put on some clothes and walked towards the front hall.
In the front hall, Mr. Leng was eating. When he heard the footsteps, he looked up at Leng Shuang and said, "Leng Shuang, you finally woke up. Did you sleep well last night? I thought you wouldn't come over today!"
Leng Shuang nodded and said, "Fortunately, I slept well last night."
Mr. Leng smiled with satisfaction and said, "You slept well last night, so stay here today to spend time with your father."
"Yes." Leng Shuang nodded and sat down on the chair next to the table.
"Leng Shuang, drink a cup of tea first to moisten your throat," Mr. Leng poured a cup of tea and handed it to Leng Shuang.
"Thank you, Dad." Leng Shuang drank slowly while holding the tea cup. While drinking, she looked at the furnishings in the room. The decoration here was magnificent, but every aspect revealed luxury.
Leng Shuang drank a cup of tea, put down the cup, and asked, "Dad, are you moving away?"
"Yes." Mr. Leng nodded and said, "I will live outside during this period. The war on the border is urgent now, and I can't delay it any longer. This is the emperor's decree, and I must do it in accordance with the emperor's decree."
"You..." Leng Shuang hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, I also want to go to the border with you."
Mr. Leng shook his head and said, "No, your mother and I have discussed it. We have to leave here first. We are not worried about you being alone in the capital. I have asked someone to arrange a distant cousin for you. His name is Lin Hai."
, if you have any problems in the future, you can go to him and he will definitely help you solve it."
"But, Dad, I don't want to be separated from you..." Leng Shuang said with tears, "You can't leave me, I only have you left."
"Silly boy, don't you still have your mother?" Mr. Leng patted Leng Shuang on the shoulder and said, "Besides, we are following orders and we have to go. This is a feud between the country and the family."
"Dad, I also want to participate in the war." Leng Shuang suddenly stood up, holding Old Man Leng's arm and said.
Mr. Leng looked at Leng Shuang and said, "Leng Shuang, you must know that your mission now is to ensure that the child in your belly arrives safely."
"I know," Leng Shuang nodded. She knew that this was her last chance and she had to seize it.
Mr. Leng sighed and said, "Since you know, just stay in the capital and wait until the child is born, then come with me."
Leng Shuang gritted her teeth and said nothing.
"Okay, go back quickly, don't be late, today
I will send your mother over tomorrow, and then you two will live together in this general's mansion," Old Master Leng warned.
Leng Shuang took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I understand, Dad."
After Leng Shuang went out, Mrs. Leng walked in. She took Leng Shuang's hand and said earnestly: "Shuang'er, I know you are worried about the situation on the battlefield, but I hope you can trust your husband. He
He is the God of War, and he will definitely return in triumph. Mom believes that it won’t be long before you can see your husband.”
"Mom, I understand." Leng Shuang nodded.
After Leng Shuang walked out, the maid led her to a remote courtyard. Although this courtyard was remote, the scenery was extremely beautiful. Leng Shuang admired the scenery all the way and thought to herself, this general is really good, not only in civil and military skills
Shuangquan is still a hero. If she can win this time, she may become his concubine in the future. By then, this general's mansion will be her home. Thinking of this, a trace of blush appeared on her face.
"Second Young Mistress, this is the room you live in." The maid opened the door and stepped aside respectfully.
"Okay," Leng Shuang said and went straight into the house.
The house was not big, with simple decoration, but clean and tidy. There was a pot of green radish beside the window, which exuded a faint fragrance. There was also a faint smell of sandalwood in the room. Leng Shuang took a deep breath, and she walked over
By the window, looking down at the outside.
"Leng Shuang, what are you thinking about?" When Leng Shuang was silent, a warm and magnetic voice sounded in his ears.
This voice was very familiar to Leng Shuang.
"Are you here?" Leng Shuang turned around and saw Gu Tingyu standing behind her. Her eyes were sore and she almost shed tears.
This man, she has loved this man for so many years, and now, is she still abandoned?
Gu Jingheng nodded and said, "Yes, I just came. What, are you crying?"
"No," Leng Shuang quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She held back the tears and said, "I'm happy."
