With the blessing of that letter, Prince An did not dare to do any obvious harm to him, and even put his hanging hands down and put him in a cell.
But no one came to tell him that Gu Yu had agreed to exchange hostages after seven days.
Junze waited and waited, but did not receive any news of being rescued. Prince An never showed up again.
Except for the handyman who brought him meals every day, he never saw anyone else.
He was unsure and began to think of ways to save himself.
For example, he repeated his old trick and set fire to the prison. However, the dungeon was so wet that he almost choked himself to death and the fire did not rise.
Another example is when he knocked out the handyman who brought him food, took out the key from his hand, opened the cell door, and changed into the clothes of a handyman. Unfortunately, he was discovered and taken back before he could get out of the dungeon.
After struggling a few times, the handyman who was looking after him felt that he was too noisy, so he withheld food from him.
Unfortunately, he could only eat one steamed bun with mixed noodles and a bowl of water for three consecutive days.
I was already dizzy from hunger. I had just spent a lot of energy underwater, but now I had no energy at all.
Junze struggled to say two words: "I'm...hungry..."
He closed his eyes again and fainted from hunger.
Gu Yu grabbed his wrist and took his pulse. She found that his pulse was weak and that he was severely depleted of energy and blood. He understood that Junze was not lying to her this time, but had actually fainted.
She screamed for a while, but still couldn't wake him up.
Gu Yu looked around and found that there were no residential buildings, so Zi Yan didn't come over.
Gu Yu is not short. According to modern measurements, she is 1.75 meters tall. However, Junze is tall, nearly 1.9 meters tall. Even if she has been hungry for seven days, she cannot bear it.
Gu Yu tried to carry him on her back, but Junze's legs dragged her to the ground, which exhausted her so much that the two of them still didn't go far.
Gu Yu couldn't stop breathing, and after a while he felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
Junze was half-pressing on her like a dead dog, and she didn't have the strength to lift him off.
Gu Yu smiled bitterly, Junze was having a hard time these days, but she was not having an easy time.
I was under tremendous psychological pressure to prepare various matters. I was so busy day after day that I had so many things on my mind that I couldn't sleep all night long.
Even though my body is extremely exhausted, I still have to work hard to cope with everything.
In the distance, the battle between the two sides continued on the river. The gulls chirped sweetly in the reeds, a gust of wind blew by, and the reed flowers fluttered.
Junze's shallow breathing sounded evenly in her ears.
Gu Yu's eyelids opened and closed, closed and opened again.
Junze's hair fell down to her neck, and it was a little itchy, but not unbearable.
Tired.
She is really tired.
Forget it, just sleep wherever you fell.
The world will miss her for a while, but it will not be destroyed.
A dragonfly stopped in front of Gu Yu's eyes, flapped its wings slightly, and flew away again.
Gu Yu closed her eyes completely and fell asleep with Junze pressing on her back.
There is always a faint fragrance of grass and trees lingering in Junze's dreams.
Gu Yu was still moving forward with heavy weight in her dream, but warmth continued to flow into her body.
Their breathing intertwined.
The world was upside down outside, but the small world in the reed marsh was quiet and peaceful.
----------------------------------------
When County Magistrate Su and Head Master Junxian found them, they saw such a scene.
Junze leaned half of his body on Gu Yu, motionless as if he was a mandarin duck who would never leave her until death.
Magistrate Su immediately thought of the rumors he heard in Yangkang Bookstore, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurried over to separate them.
Gu Yu faintly woke up, took a nap, and recovered a lot. She glanced at Junze, who was still unconscious, and breathed a sigh of relief. This time, she was safe.
Jun Xian also frowned and asked someone to carry Jun Ze back, and then took a deep look at Gu Yu.
The look in his eyes was too complicated, and Gu Yu didn't understand it.
On the way back, County Magistrate Su said: "That master named Wu Yan came back alone and said that you were missing. We were almost crazy looking for you. The boss sent people to fish out of the water for a long time, thinking that you had been washed downstream.
, we are still salvaging it now, I didn’t expect you to sleep here.”
Magistrate Su didn't dare to say anything, and it was King Xiaoyao who was suppressing Gu Shizi, and Gu Shizi actually let him suppress him.
Although the reeds are light and soft, it is not too uncomfortable to be crowded with people, but Gu Shizi... is probably too ambitious.
Does Prince Gu not care at all about those rumors in Kyoto?
Gu Yu touched her nose awkwardly. She never expected that she and Jun Ze would sleep in the reed marsh when she was so nervous.
After much deliberation, Gu Yu could only attribute it to being too tired.
Seeing Magistrate Su's changing expressions, Gu Yu changed the topic and said, "How is the battle on the water today? What happened to the group of people underwater?"
Magistrate Su County said: "Some soldiers were injured, but the fighting was not too fierce. That group of people was very strange. They seemed to be coming for Prince An, and they didn't take any action against us."
The doubts in Gu Yu's heart grew bigger and bigger, and she asked, "Is there no movement from Prince An?"
Magistrate Su County said: "Prince An seems to be looking for someone as well. It seems that Prince An and Concubine Fanggui have also disappeared. There are spies over there, so they must know that we are looking for you."
The leaders of both sides were lost during the hostage exchange, and they maintained a delicate balance. After returning from the canal, there was no bloody storm as imagined.
Gu Yu thought of Shouma.
And the indifferent beauty in Ji Le Tower.
But now it is impossible for her to return to the city that never sleeps.
Just wait and see what happens.
No, there's also a late wife.
Maybe Junze knows something else.
Gu Yu returned to the Tongning County government office with a sullen face.
Under Dr. Chang's acupuncture, Junze woke up quietly.
Although he fainted from hunger, he could not overeat just after he woke up.
He was given a little porridge and side dishes in front of him, and Doctor Chang repeatedly warned him to eat less and more often to recover slowly.
Gu Yu sat in front of him and told what Magistrate Su said and her suspicions about Yingge Yanwu. Worried that the beauty in Jile Tower would find out the clues, Gu Yu went to the Jile Tower to see what happened.
Junze ate something and recovered a lot. Seeing that Gu Yu was no longer angry because he tricked her into having her hand disabled, he felt relieved.
The good thing about Gu Yu is that he is serious about his work. Once he encounters something, he will put all the unpleasantness aside.
Junze explained honestly: "Wan Niang was rescued by me, but she was unconscious and uttering words that were incomprehensible."
Gu Yu asked: "Where is Wan Niang now?"
Jun Ze said: "If you want to see her in the Water Bandit Village, you can ask the head master to bring her over."
Gu Yu said: "I'll have to see you."
----------------------------------------
Prince An was seriously injured on the canal. He was blindfolded by several women with strong martial arts skills and took him to a building full of makeup and powder.
He knew that this group of people was not sent by Gu Yu, and they seemed to have no intention of hurting him, so they were cooperative all the way here.
When he went upstairs, the woman holding him hostage pulled the black cloth from his eyes.
Prince An saw a hazy figure behind a gauze curtain.
