Gu Yu didn't know that if he let go of his hatred, his ambitions, and his delusions of changing the world, he would be able to live a prosperous and stable life.
But God allowed her to live one more life, and she didn't want to be mediocre and waste her life.
For myself, for my father, for the Gu family army who died unjustly, for the suffering common people, and for this world where superiors and inferiors are humbled, as if separated by a vast gulf.
There was no turning back for her.
Gu Yudao: "Although Senior Lian is hiding from the world and working as a lantern, he still cares about world affairs and has a clear understanding of the world's conditions. He must have still had his ambition to cultivate himself, manage his family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. If one day, Old Monster Lian can have the opportunity to show off his talents, may I
Coming out of the mountain?"
Lian Laoguai looked at the young man in front of him, knowing that her words were extremely arrogant, but her eyes were very serious.
He guessed that Gu Yu must have checked his past since he was friends with him before he said such a thing.
Even the old monster's long-dead heart seemed to be ignited by her wild words.
When you are young, who doesn’t have ambitions and want to show off your talents?
His family has been making lamps for generations, and they have exhausted all their wealth to support his education.
He finally passed the Jinshi examination, but because of his outspoken words, he offended the powerful, was framed, and was stripped of all his honors.
Fortunately, Ju Zishi saved his life. From then on, he became disheartened, kept his name anonymous, and made a living by making lamps.
Gu Yu's words, "The people and the king are incompatible," were like thunder on the ground, deafening and blinding him.
But the reality is bleak again.
Looking at the world, where the powerful are rampant and the people are ignorant, there is no such thing as "the people and the king are incompatible".
No matter how good the ideal is, it is like the moon in the water or the flowers in the mirror.
Old Monster Lian murmured: "As a sinner, it is not easy to escape from the mountain."
After saying that, Old Monster Lian seemed to have just realized Jun Ze's identity, with panic on his face.
But Jun Zehun didn't care. He didn't even raise his eyelids and said, "I will only talk about everything tonight. I can't remember anything else."
Gu Yudao: "It's not easy to be multiplied in the world. If you want to make it happen, you have to pay attention to the right time, the right place, the right people, and the right people. You still have to have ideals. What if it comes true?"
Gu Yu spoke in a subtle way, and no one here except Junze understood it.
Gu Yu and Junze left, and even the old monster was still sitting on the chair, speechless.
His face is reflected in the water glass. The young man who once climbed high to sing songs has long had gray hair on his temples, and there is no trace of his high spirits.
Arrogance seems to be a common problem among young people, especially this Gu Yu.
But looking back, she has indeed accomplished what many people would never be able to do in their lifetime.
Talking sessions, imperial examination reform, land equalization system, Wenhansi...
Everything seems to declare that she is extraordinary.
Ju Zishi on the side looked at the two of them leaving, and thousands of thoughts flashed through them.
As he carefully licked what Gu Yu said just now, a bad suspicion arose in his mind.
Lord Shangshu, who has experienced the ups and downs of the court for decades, could not even hold the cup of tea.
But thinking about the calm way the two of them were sitting and talking made Ju Zishi feel that he was worrying too much.
Lian Laoguai said to Ju Zishi: "What did she mean when she said that the time, place, and people are favorable?"
Ju Zishi put the tea into his mouth and said, "Who knows, let's wait and see."
The attendant on the side went upstairs again and said in surprise: "Old Monster Lian, the young man who broke into the light array, is only short of the last five lights."
Only then did Old Weird Lian come back to his senses and looked down.
Ju Zishi also recognized the young man through the window.
"Ding Xiaoji?"
Gu Yu, who had just come downstairs, also recognized the young man who broke into the light array.
At the same time, she also recognized Sun Caiwei who was not far from Ding Xiaoji.
Songyang kept pushing Sun Caiwei towards Ding Xiaoji and said, "Why are you so shy? He likes your poems, so just write more sentences!"
Sun Caiwei's face turned red and she refused to move forward.
Just now Princess Songyang wanted a lantern and asked her and Gu Qiong to break through it, but Gu Qiong failed without passing the trap.
She walked back and saw a poem topic that she had filled in before, so she quickly wrote it down.
Unexpectedly, when he went to hang the lamp, he accidentally collided with this Ding Xiaoji, and the plaque in his hand fell to the ground.
Ding Xiaoji picked it up for her, glanced at it, and asked her why she wanted to steal Mingxin layman's poems.
The courtyard where Sun Caiwei lived was Mingxinyuan. When Gu Yu helped her publish a collection of poems, she named herself Mingxin Jushi.
In full public view, being questioned about stealing poems put Sun Caiwei in a dilemma, so she had to admit that she was a Mingxin lay practitioner.
Under Ding Xiaoji's suspicious eyes, Sun Caiwei picked up another poem title and recited one on the spot in order to clear away the suspicion.
The familiar style of poetry made Ding Xiaoji feel ashamed, and he kept apologizing to her: "I was blind-sighted and offended the girl. I didn't expect that the layman Mingxin was a woman."
Sun Caiwei was not annoyed and asked him: "Mingxin layman is not a famous poet, how could you recognize him at a glance? And based on the poem I recited casually, you determined that I am Mingxin layman?"
Ding Xiaoji glanced at her and said, "Ding Xiaoji."
These three words made Sun Caiwei suddenly realize.
When Gu Yu helped her publish a collection of poems, she asked someone to write a preface for her. The signature on the title page was exactly the three characters Ding Xiaoji.
I didn’t expect that the two of them would have such a fate!
Ding Xiaoji said: "Excuse me for being rude. Although I have never met the girl, I have been in love with her for a long time because of her poems. The girl is amazingly talented and beautiful. I often recite her poems, which can be said to be eloquent. May I ask?
The girl’s name, home, and where is her home.”
Ding Xiaoji read the poems of Master Mingxin and felt full of inspiration. He asked Mr. Gu who Master Mingxin was, but Mr. Gu only said he was a friend.
Ding Xiaoji only thought he was a man and wanted to make acquaintance, but after several hints, Gu Yu didn't agree.
I never expected that Lay Buddhist Mingxin would turn out to be a woman with both talent and beauty.
While Sun Caiwei was happy that her poems were recognized, she was caught off guard by Ding Xiaoji's question.
It was also her fault that she didn't wear a woman's bun when she went out with the two women from the boudoir, Gu Qiong and Song Yang.
She couldn't say that she was Gu Xiaogong's side wife, and she didn't have to let people talk about Gu Xiaogong's bad family tradition. Sun Caiwei was about to leave in a panic, but she was caught by Princess Songyang.
Songyang insisted that she talk to Ding Xiaoji more.
Songyang actually asked Ding Xiaoji directly: "Do you like her poems?"
Ding Xiaoji said bluntly: "I like it."
Songyang asked again: "Do you like her as a person?"
Ding Xiaoji blushed instantly and stood there looking at Sun Caiwei, but he did not dare to answer for fear of offending the beauty.
Sun Caiwei was so anxious that she almost cried and said: "Princess, please don't do this!"
Songyang whispered in her ear: "Your husband is so open-minded, so you have to be open-minded too!"
Sun Caiwei kept shaking her head and asked Gu Qiong for help.
Gu Qiong knew Gu Yu's identity, so she said awkwardly: "Ahem, Caiwei, my brother is an open-minded person, so what... you are just discussing poetry, so that's okay."
Seeing this chaotic scene, Junze gloated to Gu Yu: "Gu Yu, you may be cheated!"
