Gu Yu put on the corset as quickly as possible, put on a robe and went to open the door. Her hair was still disheveled, and her face was still full of sleepiness.
Opening the door, I saw Junze looking awkward, with a thin layer of morning dew on his hair.
Gu Yu suppressed his embarrassment and said: "Your Majesty suddenly came to visit, what are you doing?"
Junze didn't pay attention to the alienation in her words. He stretched out his hand in front of Gu Yu and said, "Look at your hand."
The bandage on his wrist was untied by him before arriving at Bafang Gambling House, and it was tied up again casually. It can be described as a mess.
Even though Gu Yu has a good temper, when faced with this situation, he couldn't help but curse: "You are mentally ill when you step on a horse!"
Yesterday she wanted to see it, but Junze drove her away, and early this morning she came all the way covered in morning dew.
Can't this person's brain circuit be normal?
Despite the scolding, Gu Yu still let Junze into the room.
Seeing this, Monk Li Ruo was confused and said awkwardly: "I'll prepare some food for Prince Gu."
Gu Yu nodded and said, "Prepare an extra serving."
Li Ruotong walked away hand in hand.
Junze turned his back to Gu Yu and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. It seemed that he was not the one who was so incompetent and furious last night.
Look, as soon as he arrives, Li Ruo has to get away obediently.
Looking around, the house is all tidy and clean. Where is the confidante, where is the "man, that's not all".
Gu Yu is as clean as a new bamboo shoot in spring, or like a handful of snow on a branch in a dark winter night.
Gu Yu didn't ask him why he had changed so much overnight. He just silently took out the ointment, helped him apply the medicine, and then wrapped bandages around him.
She was not very knowledgeable, but she could also see how this hand had been overused by its owner in the past two months.
Neither of them spoke, and neither looked at the other.
In the end, Gu Yu felt that sitting like this was really boring, so she said: "You can't use your hands anymore, take good care of them."
Junze nodded.
After sitting there for a while, Li Ruo came in with food.
A plate of small pickles, a plate of seasonal vegetables, two salted duck eggs, a plate of small steamed buns, and two bowls of clear porridge, simple and simple.
During this period of time, Li Ruo had breakfast with Gu Yu, but Li Ruo didn't understand what was going on between these two people, and Li Ruo felt uncomfortable among them.
Zai Gu Yu asked: "Why didn't you prepare your own?"
Li Ruo hurriedly replied: "I have already eaten in the kitchen, you can eat."
Then we walked out hand in hand.
Junze had a huge appetite when faced with a simple meal. He was used to eating with his left hand, but Gu Yu silently peeled a salted duck egg for him.
Junze looked at her hands, peeling off the salted duck egg skin bit by bit, and they were so clean and slender.
He asked: "What have you been doing in the city that never sleeps these days?"
Gu Yu paused and the salted duck eggs slipped and fell on the table.
Everything she did, risking the lives of thousands of people in the south of the Yangtze River, could not escape Jun Ze's eyes.
Junze picked up the duck egg without mind at all and took a bite. It was salty and fragrant, and the yolk was oily. He held the bowl and took a sip of the porridge.
Junze said disapprovingly: "I don't speak when I eat, and I don't speak when I sleep. I understand."
Then he raised the salted duck eggs in his hand and said, "Gu Yu, thank you."
Gu Yu lowered her eyes, her trembling eyelashes revealing the turmoil hidden deep in her heart.
He said: I understand.
He understands her choices, her adventures, and her struggles.
Then he said: Gu Yu, thank you.
Thank her for helping him peel the salted duck eggs, and also thank her for speeding up the end of this battle by herself, so that he could come back as soon as possible holding his injured wrist.
Everything is left unsaid.
Gu Yu couldn't explain how she felt now. She only felt that her heart was burning, painful, astringent, and extremely hot.
Junze didn't seem to care about her silence at all, he was just munching on his meal with a satisfied expression on his face.
They remained silent, but did not feel embarrassed, until they finished eating and removed all the tableware.
Junze said: "I'm so sleepy."
Gu Yu went to clean up a guest room for him next door. When she returned, Junze was already lying on her bed, asleep.
She helped Junze lower the bed curtain to block the sunlight outside.
She also went next door and had a deep sleep.
In the dream, there were no huge waves, no ghosts trying to drag her down, and no people looking up to the sky and crying in pain as their homes were destroyed.
Nothing.
After a month, Gu Yu finally had a good night's sleep.
When Junze woke up, he was confused for a moment, not knowing what night or where he was.
The scent of grass and woods on the quilt reminded him of what happened last night and this morning. He rolled around on the bed with the quilt in his arms, and then made the bed for Gu Yu.
Gu Yu slept for a whole day, her limbs were weak from sleep, and then she woke up faintly.
Junze has left Bafang Gambling House and the war is over, but he still has many things to deal with.
The rebels must be sentenced according to their crimes, the imperial army must be rewarded according to their merits, the food and grass must be integrated, the military salaries must be distributed, and the martyrs must be subsidized...
He was so busy that his feet never touched the ground.
Gu Yu also has a lot of things to do. The city that never sleeps is safe, and she has to fulfill her duties as an imperial envoy in this little Kyoto.
In fact, it was to purge the officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River. When Prince An rebelled, too many officials turned against him and opened the city gates for Prince An. As a result, the war quickly spread and all lives were lost.
For this kind of thing, I would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go.
Even if you say that you are for the safety of the people in the city and do not dare to resist too much, even if you speak out without blaming the public, even if you are coerced by Prince An.
Those who deserve beheading should be beheaded, those who should be exiled should be exiled, and those who should be confiscated should have their homes confiscated.
During this period of time, the executioner's knives on the guilty platform in the Evernight City had to be replaced three or four times and sharpened countless times. The blood stained the red mud, and flies multiplied everywhere.
There was a big reshuffle in Jiangnan, which eradicated the great worry of the Holy Sage. The Holy Sage was so pleased that he issued two decrees in succession.
First, Enke will be reopened next year to select officials for Jiangnan.
Second, the taxes and corvees in Jiangnan this year should be reduced or reduced to provide for the people of Jiangnan to rest and recuperate.
The people were all excited and shouted long live.
On the other side, Taiwei Shao's troops have not yet arrived at the Evernight City, and he seems to have no intention of coming to the Evernight City.
Everyone who heard that he dug a mass grave and killed more than 20,000 rebels was horrified.
After many years, the name of the God of Killing spread to the south of the Yangtze River. He could stop children from crying at night and everyone was frightened by it.
After the killing, a red rain suddenly fell in Jiangnan one day.
Some people associate this red rain with the fact that Lieutenant Shao killed 20,000 rebels.
As soon as the rumor came out, the Holy Emperor quickly ordered Shao Taiwei to return to Beijing to hold him accountable, and he also issued an edict to blame himself overnight.
But everyone knows that the Holy One is using the imperial edict to protect Shao Taiwei.
Gu Yu walked up to the wall of the city that never sleeps, and Junze was standing there, looking into the distance.
She opened her mouth and said, "You must have spread those rumors."
Junze stood on the wall of the city that never sleeps and murmured: "He is a good dog. There are more than 20,000 people, all of whom are the people of our Yu Dynasty."
