Chapter 180: The People and Their Affairs

After Guo Kun left, calm quickly regained in the small pavilion. A group of palace guards guarded around the small pavilion from afar, and did not come close to disturb them. The wind blew through the flowers and trees, the leaves rattled, and the frightened birds and finches dared to fall, jumping and chirping on the steps and flower windows in front of the small pavilion.

In the small pavilion, Guo Caiwei looked at Lin Jue in a daze, her eyes full of worry and grievances.

"Are you really going to take this risk?" The main road of the small county.

Lin Jue slowly walked over and took the little county lord's hand, and the two sat on the stone bench next to them. The sun shone in and shone on Guo Caiwei's reduced face, which was full of worry.

"Vier, I'm going. You also know the reason, because of the last birthday ceremony, I killed Hai Dongqing's beloved son on Guishan Island, and Hai Dongqing came to seek revenge. They intercepted me several times, but I narrowly escaped it. They almost hijacked Midori Dance the other day, and the matter has reached a point where it has to be resolved, and I can't sit still. ”

"However, this trip is so dangerous, can you still survive this time?"

"Whether or not you can come back alive can only depend on creation. But it's better than waiting to die. Besides, I had no choice. ”

Guo Caiwei was speechless, and said in a low voice after a while: "If you die, I won't say it, how can you be worthy of that Fang girl?" Aren't you going to marry her? You die, teach her to marry whom? How can you be so ruthless. ”

Lin Jue sighed lightly and said, "Huanqiu has passed away, and I don't need to explain anything to her." ”

Guo Caiwei was surprised: "Miss Fang died? When was this? ”

Lin Jue sighed and said, "She died of illness in the capital years ago. She hasn't used the recipe you found for me, hey, I haven't even seen her for the last time. ”

Guo Caiwei was surprised for a long time, and said in a low voice: "You...... Condolences change. Miss Fang's life is not bitter, at least, she has to treat you sincerely. ”

Lin Jue didn't hear anything in her words, and said in a low voice: "I am indeed sincere to her, and I am very sad for her death." She was really pitiful, she had such a terminal illness at such a young age, and I couldn't save her. Sometimes I feel like I'm useless. ”

Guo Caiwei sighed lightly and said, "Then you will no longer have anything to worry about, right?" ”

Lin Jue finally heard the resentment in Guo Caiwei's words. Squinted at Guo Caiwei and said, "Wei'er, I'm not ignoring your feelings, but I can't help but do this matter, because the situation is compelling, I can only face it." I can't hide at home as a shrinking turtle for the rest of my life, and I don't dare to go out of the door when I am frightened by Hai Dongqing. If one of the people around me dies because of me, I will live in regret for the rest of my life. I'm a man and I have to face it. Even if it is to die because of it. ”

Guo Caiwei looked up at Lin Jue and said softly: "I understand, how can a man shrink his hands and feet, if you are that kind of person, I Guo Caiwei will not ...... I won't fall in love with you so far. Go, for if you die, I will not live alone. ”

Lin Jue frowned and said, "Wei'er, you don't have to be like this. If I die, you should live better. ”

Guo Caiwei shook off Lin Jue's palm and stood up, and said with an angry face: "Until now, don't you believe that I am sincere to you?" ”

Lin Jue frowned and looked at her and said, "Wei'er, you have suffered so much to protect me, how can I doubt your sincerity." I admit that I still had concerns before, I have a promise to Huanqiu, and I can't live up to her. Moreover, the matter between you and me is a bit ridiculous after all. There is a huge disparity between you and me, and what happened that night was also an accident. I might as well make it clear to you that I don't want to have too much to do with the Liang Wangfu, and I don't agree with your father's and brother's style of acting, because it will cause a catastrophe sooner or later. But now, all these worries have disappeared, how can I fail you if you treat me like this? No matter how much your father and brother oppose me, even if they want to kill me for it, I will never give up on you. ”

Guo Caiwei showed surprise on her face and said in surprise: "You...... Do you really think so? You've decided? ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "You treat me like this, if I bear you, it will be in vain." ”

Guo Caiwei rushed over and hugged Lin Jue's neck tightly, crying with joy: "I finally heard you say this." ”

Lin Jue smiled and stroked her back and said, "You are the county lord, be reserved, what if I just want to rely on you to get on the throne?" What if, I'm the second Sima Qingshan? ”

Guo Caiwei smiled: "He? Not as much as a finger on your finger. You're not that kind of person. Why would you wait until today to say this? ”

Lin Jue said in a low voice: "Thank you, God treats me well." ”

Guo Caiwei looked up at Lin Jue and said, "I understand, you can do things with peace of mind, some things have to be done after all." If we succeed this time, we may be able to get the praise of my father and brother, and maybe it will also help you and me. If you die, I will not die, and I will keep the feast for you. Never marry again for the rest of your life. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "Keeping festivals? So why bother? How can you say such stupid things? Am I willing to watch you die alone for the rest of your life? I'm dead, you live your life, and occasionally burn some paper money for me. I'd like to see you live well. And, it's strange, why do you all say I'm going to die on the island? Can't you hope that I'll come back alive? ”

Guo Caiwei sighed and said continuously: "Bah, look at my mouth." You will not die, you will definitely come back alive. I will go all over the temples in Hangzhou to burn incense and worship the Buddha for you, and bless you with a safe return. You promised me that I would come back alive. ”

Lin Jue smiled and nodded, "I promise you, I will come back alive." When this is done, I will have a showdown with your father and brother, and I will tell your father that I will marry her daughter. ”

Guo Caiwei's face turned red with excitement, and she said softly: "What if my father doesn't agree?" Or even kill you? ”

Lin Jue smiled: "Then I will let her daughter give birth to a child, so that he will lose his old face." ”

Guo Caiwei took a big sip and said, "Bah, you are really a bad person." ”

……

In the back garden of the palace. Guo Bing walked back and forth in the sunlight with his hands in his hands. Although the spring was bright, his face was cloudy and uncertain. After a while, he thought that the success of Ruolin Jue's plan would be of great benefit to the royal family, so he smiled. After a while, I thought about the huge risks brought by this matter, and if I didn't get it right, it would be out of control, so the clouds were thick. When the mood fluctuates, the mood also fluctuates.

"Why hasn't Kun'er come yet? Where did he go? Guo Bing stopped and asked with a frown at a steward standing not far away.

"Lord Qi, the little prince has returned home, but for some reason he hasn't come to see the prince yet. The villain will go and ask again. ”

Guo Bing was just about to speak, when suddenly there was a knock of footsteps outside the round door, and Guo Kun strode from the stone road on the side of the rockery. The steward hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, the little prince is here." ”

Guo Bing snorted and said in a deep voice, "Serve tea." ”

Guo Kun hurriedly strode over, and at a glance he saw his father standing on the grass with his hands in his hands and the mess scattered around his father.

"The child sees the father."

"Yes. Come on? How did it take so long? Wandering the streets again? Guo Bing said in a deep voice.

"The boy didn't go to hang out, but in the morning he went to the Ning Navy garrison and said a few words to Commander Song. As soon as he came back, he heard that his father was called a child, so he came to see his father in a hurry. Father...... What's going on on this earth? Who you off? ”

Guo Bing glanced at the mess all over the ground, waved his hand and said, "That Lin Jue came to see my father just now, and said something that made me angry, and I smashed him with a teapot and teacup." ”

"Oh? Lin Jue is here? Why did you make your father angry? Guo Kun didn't intend to tell what he learned from Lin Jue's mouth, since it was verification, then of course he had to listen to what his father said was the same as what Lin Jue said.

"Sit down and talk." Guo Bing sat down, and Guo Kun straightened a chair that had fallen to the ground and sat down opposite him.

"Kun'er, this Lin Jue came and told me something. Father feels the need to counsel with you, for this matter is too important. Father wants to hear your opinion. Guo Bing said in a deep voice.

"Father, please speak, and the child listens."

Guo Bing whispered slowly and slowly told Lin Jue what happened when he came to see him just now, and he didn't even miss the part where Lin Jue threatened him. In front of his son, Guo Bing will not hide anything. Even if it's a shameful thing.

Guo Kun frowned and listened carefully, nodding secretly in his heart. Lin Jue didn't lie, his father's narrative was exactly the same as what Lin Jue said, but from a different angle. Lin Jue did make a suggestion to his father to exterminate the sea bandits.

After Guo Bing finished speaking, he looked at Guo Kun quietly, and he was surprised that there was no surprise on Guo Kun's face. When did the son become so calm?

"Kun'er, do you think this is okay or not?"

"Father, I won't tell you, I already know about it. I met Lin Jue in the house just now, and he told the child about it. Guo Kun himself uncovered the mystery of his calmness.

Guo Bing suddenly asked again: "So, do you think this matter is feasible?" ”

Guo Kun groaned: "Daddy, with all due respect, this matter is extremely risky. The plan itself is risky, and if it fails, it will be out of control. Lin Jue is certainly a cheap life, and he can disregard life and death when he comes up with this plan, but for us, I am afraid that we must be cautious. ”

Guo Bing frowned and said, "What does Kun'er mean...... Can't you take the risk? ”

Guo Kun shook his head and said, "That's not what the child meant. The child just said to be cautious. Father, since the last time he returned to the capital, his father has been restless. Is there another rumor in the court that is unfavorable to my palace? Makes my father unhappy? ”

Guo Bing said in a deep voice: "Kun'er, my father didn't want to tell you this, but now he doesn't have to hide it from you. When did the rumors about our palace stop in the DPRK? However, no matter how troublesome Lu Zhongtian is, as long as the saint doesn't speak, their words will still be useless. However, this time the Holy One did not speak to me in the right way. When asked several times about the troubles caused by the pirates, there seemed to be a sense of blame in his words. Do you know what that means, Kun'er? ”

"Father means that the Holy Lord is calling us back to Beijing? Did Lu Zhongtian's old thief's slander work? The Holy One is suspicious of us? ”

"It may not be that Lu Zhongtian's words have played a role, you don't know, my imperial brother is a very assertive person, and he will not be led by others when he acts. It's been three years, and the throne has been secured, and he thinks it's inappropriate for us to stay in Hangzhou, and it's more likely that he has moved his own mind. He just tested me first. After the temptation, observe for a while, and then he will make a decree. He didn't want us to stay in Hangzhou, to stay where he couldn't see. Kun'er, I'm afraid we won't be able to stay in Hangzhou. ”

Guo Kun frowned and said, "Father, the saint may not be that kind of person, maybe he just said it casually." ”

Guo Bing sneered and sighed: "Kun'er, your father grew up with him, don't you know what kind of person he is?" Father, tell you something from your childhood. That year, I was only nine years old, and one day, my brother and I went to play in my father's bedroom. It was a bit cold that day, and I was wearing a little thin, so the queen mother took my father's dragon robe and put it on my body. It was fine at the time, but then the emperor beat me so hard that I was bruised and broke one of my toes with a stone. I was crying in pain, and he threatened me not to cry, and he told me that I had broken my footing. He told me that the dragon robe was going to be worn by him in the future, how could I wear it? Even if the queen mother wanted to put it on me, I couldn't wear it. He also told me that if I dared to do this again, I would be taught to die at his hands in the future. I was too young to understand what he meant, but as I grew up, I knew what he meant. That's it, you should know what kind of person he is. In front of outsiders, he is a kind brother, but who knows what kind of person he is? ”
