The night was as thick as a puddle of ink, and the falling snowflakes covered the mud that had been trampled to pieces.
This long, cold winter.
Always wakes people up from their dreams.
Junze's face was stern, and his eyes did not move away from the figure on the bridge for a moment.
Without the pedestrians coming and going, she looked even more alone, pitifully lonely.
The light snowflakes wrapped Gu Yu in it like a raging storm.
Junze got off the carriage and walked to the bridge.
There was already a layer of snow on Gu Yu's shoulders, and there were still unmelted snowflakes between her brows.
Familiar footsteps came from behind, and Gu Yu said nothing until an umbrella covered her head.
Gu Yudao: "You're here."
His tone was calm, and when he opened his mouth, there was a light white mist that quickly dispersed in the wind and snow.
Junze said: "If I don't come, are you planning to freeze to death?"
Gu Yudao: "When Wei Sheng hugged the pillar and died, he also thought that the woman would definitely come."
When I was a child, I read "Zhuangzi" and saw that "the young man and his wife lived under a beam. If the woman did not come, the water would not go away, so she died hugging the beam."
At that time, I thought Wei Sheng's obsession was ridiculous. How could he be so stupid as to wait for a woman and not want to leave until the flood spread and drowned him.
When it was his turn, he realized that this obsession stemmed from his trust in that person.
Fortunately, Junze is not the woman who broke the promise, and I can't bear to see her waiting here forever.
Junze held an umbrella in one hand and helped Gu Yu sweep away the snow on his shoulders and head with the other, saying, "Is it cold?"
Gu Yu lowered his eyes and said, "It's not bad."
A sense of alienation quietly rose between them, as if the past pleasures were all illusions.
Junze suddenly said: "I have asked you why countless times, but you never want to give me an answer. Even though you are here today, you still can't tell me the right answer?"
Gu Yudao: "Yes. Even if you ask me countless times, I won't tell you."
Junze looked at Gu Yu's cold face, which was clearly close at hand, but yet far away.
Jun Zedao: "Whenever I feel that I understand you, you will tell me with your actions that the you I know is not like this."
Gu Yudao: "If you are good at reading, you don't seek a deep understanding. The same is true for people. You don't need to try your best to understand me."
Junze felt exhausted and said, "Do you know what you are doing?"
Gu Yudao: "I know."
Junze said: "Do you know what the consequences will be if you make a slight mistake?"
Gu Yudao: "I know."
Junze said: "You know everything, but you still choose to do this. Where do you put the world? Where do you put the people?"
Junze tightened his grip on the umbrella handle and said, "Where will you put me again?"
Gu Yu didn't answer.
Junze asked with red eyes: "What am I in your eyes?"
Gu Yu refused to speak.
Junze said: "You asked me to call Dr. Xiao Leng out just to plot how to kill the king?"
Gu Yu still didn't speak.
Gu Yu's silence was like a slap in the face, silently hitting Jun Ze in the face.
How eager he was to help Gu Yu before, now this slap in the face hurts so much.
Junze said: "Even Dr. Xiao Leng knows your secret, but you kept me in the dark. You planned with him, but used me as a raft. What about today? Why are you here? If I hadn't asked someone to
Doctor Xiao Leng breaks his leg, will you come?"
Gu Yudao: "This matter has nothing to do with Dr. Xiao Leng, please don't do anything to him again."
Junze smiled bitterly and said, "I asked you so many questions, but you only answered me when Dr. Xiao Leng was involved."
Gu Yudao: "Doctor Xiao Leng is only obsessed with medical skills. Everything was planned by me."
Jun Zedao: "In order to protect him, you can come up with such a poor reason. Do you think I didn't see him being beaten by you at the racecourse in the suburbs of Beijing?"
Gu Yu raised his eyes and looked at Junze and said, "Why do you have to deceive yourself? You should know that Dr. Xiao Leng doesn't have such deep scheming to do this thing perfectly."
Junze said angrily: "That's what he was doing to hinder this! Otherwise, you wouldn't have used your sister to attack the Holy Master!"
Gu Yudao: "Whether it was him who interfered with it or not, I was the one who caused this consequence."
Junze said with red eyes: "You single-handedly facilitated this? Have you ever thought about whether you can afford it if anything happens to it?"
Gu Yu looked at him and said, "But nothing happened, right?"
Junze said: "What do you mean there is no accident? The Holy One is on the line between life and death. He is still ill and refuses to go to court. If someone with a heart knows the current situation of the Holy One, what kind of chaos will happen in the world?"
Gu Yudao: "Since I dare to do this, I have already thought of this result. This is also the reason why Dr. Xiao Leng has been by your side these days. He will do his best to stabilize the condition of the Holy Lord."
Junze said: "What about the next step? What do you want to do next?"
Gu Yu clasped her hands tightly and said, "The next step is to find an opportunity to support the fifth prince to ascend to power when the world is stable."
But in this process, she wanted the Holy One to suffer a lot.
Physically.
Mentally.
Junze said in disbelief: "Do you know what you are talking about? Did you choose to join the Fifth Prince Faction just to bring down the Holy Emperor? How can the Fifth Prince sit peacefully on such a throne? How can he sit peacefully?"
Gu Yu suddenly held Junze's arm and said: "Your Majesty can sit calmly and peacefully, why can't the fifth prince? Junze, please don't forget that when you were in Jiangnan, your Majesty sent troops to make the imperial court justified, abandoning you and me.
Regardless. Didn’t you also feel chilled at that time?”
Junze retorted: "But Shao Wuji finally arrived with reinforcements!"
Gu Yu sneered.
Junze didn't understand the meaning of this smile and continued: "Although the Holy Lord is not a wise king and a holy lord, he is very suspicious and addicted to the art of checks and balances. However, since he succeeded to the throne, he has worked hard to govern and forget to eat and sleep. However, he has also pacified Xirong, suppressed the vassal kings, and promoted
From a poor family, tax reductions and exemptions, and meritocracy allowed the people of the Yu Dynasty to have enough food and clothing, not to mention wealth."
Every time Jun Ze said something, Gu Yu's face turned uglier.
Junze looked at her stubborn eyes and said, "I have said so much, but you haven't listened to a word."
Gu Yu gritted his teeth and said, "You don't know anything."
Junze growled: "Why don't I know anything? It's because you didn't tell me anything! I want to know too, I want to know why you did this, why you ignored me, why you are hot and cold? Why?
Do all this without telling me? Am I so unworthy of your trust?"
Gu Yudao: "This is not a matter of trust."
Junze said: "What's the problem? Gu Yu! He is my uncle. Have you ever considered my feelings before attacking him?"
Gu Yudao: "When the fifth prince ascends the throne and the dust settles, I will tell you everything."
Junze gritted his teeth and said, "By then it was too late!"
