Rebel

Looking at the ray of sunshine, looking at the person standing under the sun, Gu Ao didn't know what the excitement that suddenly surged into his chest was, he just felt happy and was a little caught off guard.

Gu Ao quickened his pace and approached Yu Junfan. The sun was shining brightly, adding a layer of brilliance to Yu Junfan's outline.As soon as his fingertips fell off the hairpin, he undid his sleeves, raised his face and looked at Gu Ao with a smile: "You see how simple it is, but you don't."

Gu Ao said in a strange way: "... I have been... clumsy since I was a child."

"You're reasonable." Yu Junfan laughed, his eyes burning.Gu Ao became happy, something stirred deep in his body, as if it was about to break through the ground.Gu Ao savored the time at this moment, as if something was about to slip through his fingers, but he tried his best to catch it, unwilling to let it go.

Everything in front of him seems to have fallen from the sky suddenly, and it seems that it has long been lurking in the countless details of life, and Gu Ao has no time to delve into it... He can only stare at Yu Junfan's face in a daze, only to see that expression is faintly flying, Gu Ao Ao said in his heart: "His eyes, were they so bright before?"

"What's the matter?" Yu Junfan looked at Shang Gu Ao with a smile in his eyes.

Gu Ao suddenly felt that this smile was so pretty... Maybe it was because the sun was shining too warmly, which made Gu Ao also feel that there was tenderness in this smile, and traces of sweetness quietly melted in his heart. No matter how decisive he was, it was as if he was quietly and softly wrapped by the fine forging, and he could no longer smell the rusty smell of the gold and iron horse.

Yu Junfan asked him, "What's the matter?" Gu Ao couldn't explain clearly for a while, he raised his hand, the wide cuffs covered his somewhat cramped and uneasy fingertips, and gently held Yu Junfan's sleeve hanging down. palm.

Yu Junfan was stunned, but Gu Ao didn't look at him, but looked forward with restraint: "... go up?"

Yu Junfan asked softly, "One?"

Gu Ao nodded: "One way."

Walking on the road, the two had their own concerns, but they kept holding hands together.The feet that were a little tired from climbing seemed to be rejuvenated, and Gu Ao walked like flying in the mountains.A thin layer of sweat dripped from Yu Junfan's forehead, and the sound of breathing gradually became audible, but Gu Ao's heart was up and down at this moment, and he didn't realize it.

Until Yu Junfan whispered beside him: "The King of Han is really strong." Gu Ao came back to his senses and said, "You are tired, there is a big rock over there, let's take a rest."

Yu Junfan nodded and said, "Okay."

Gu Ao led Yu Junfan to sit down on the boulder, and said: "When I was in Shanyun Academy, I used to carry water up the mountain every day, so I didn't feel tired climbing the mountain. It was my negligence just now."

Yu Junfan turned his head and asked: "...going down the mountain to carry water...is it the pool we met?"

Gu Ao said: "It's right there. There are Yunshan mountains behind and clear ponds in front of them, which corresponds to the piano meaning of high mountains and flowing water."

Yu Junfan smiled, raised his eyes, and looked at Gu Ao without any hesitation: "The high mountains and flowing waters have made me find my confidant."

"Jun Fan, am I your confidant?" As soon as Gu Ao finished speaking, he realized that he was asking very stupidly.

Sure enough, Yu Junfan laughed when he heard the words, but did not answer this sentence, but untied a water bag from his waist, unscrewed the lid, raised his head and took a sip, then handed the water bag to Gu Ao, and asked: " ...do you want to drink?"

Gu Ao's gaze fell on Yu Junfan's lips involuntarily, perhaps because he had just drank water and looked crystal clear and soft, Gu Ao found that his breathing became heavy, he took Yu Junfan's water bag, Gudu Gudu drank a few big gulps, and the cold water entered his stomach, and then he calmed down.

The higher the mountain road goes, the better the scenery can be seen. Yu Junfan put away the water bag and looked at the landscape of Hanzhong under the clouds.Gu Ao suddenly said: "Climbing today, with you by my side, it seems that the ten-thousand-ren peak is not difficult to climb. In a blink of an eye, we are almost at the top of the mountain."

Yu Junfan was slightly startled when he heard the words, and looked at Gu Ao, trying to catch even a little expression of his heart on his face.Gu Ao's words seemed to be alluding to the hardships and setbacks they will experience together in the future, until the moment they climbed to the top, Gu Ao was telling him that if one day, he would like him to be by his side.Reflected in the shadow of Yu Junfan's pupils, Gu Ao's complexion seemed to be full of emotions, his expression was full of emotion, as if he was just expressing his heart...

Gu Ao turned his head, and the two eyes met. Yu Junfan felt that he was almost burned by the scorching eyes, only to hear Gu Ao's voice ringing in his ears: "...Jun Fan, accompany me to conquer the land."

Yu Junfan was stunned for a moment, he only heard his own voice saying: "...OK."

But at this time, the candlelight in the capital was faint, and the brief meeting in the inner hall of the palace finally broke up.

"Investigate!" Yong Chi frowned: "Give me a thorough investigation! Who is so daring!"

"Yes!" The generals of Huben held torches and led away.

It turned out that not long after Yongchi returned to the capital, the sad news of King Jin's violent death suddenly spread in the palace!When Yong Chi heard about this, he was gathering his cronies in Yong's residence in the name of healing his wounds, and was planning a countermeasure for the court. The originally almost foolproof layout was suddenly shattered by the thunder that fell from the sky.For a while, like a rehearsed script, the little emperor summoned all his ministers and cried out in the middle of the night: "A traitor killed my brother!"

At the same time, the Liao family in Jiangqu launched an attack from afar, and within a few days rumors spread throughout Shangjing: "The regent Yongchi has stolen his honor and conspired against him. The king of Jin has always been his taboo. After defeat, he actually kills the killer!"

The King of Jin used to be a banner on the side of the Qing emperor, but now in the capital, it only remains as a pawn. He restrains the princes who raised troops for the court, and at the same time, it is placed in the capital as an offering to the princes.

This time the king of Jin was murdered, and Yong Chi was almost furious.On the one hand, he hated the Liao family for being so cruel that they abandoned King Jin and took refuge in the new master; on the other hand, he cursed everyone in the Yong family as trash!I only left the capital for a while, and I didn't pay attention, and such a big change happened just after I came back!

Shicai Yongchi was in the hall, wishing to drag his useless nephew off the dragon chair, ah, he wanted to be in charge of the government, but he actually turned his elbow away and formed an alliance with the Liao family to calculate his own Dear uncle!If it weren't for him, he could be the emperor?Empress Dowager Yong is also useless for things that don't know good or bad, she is good at fighting with women, but she doesn't care about the overall situation at all!Just now, she was protecting those idiots...

Yong Chi's expression turned cold, and there was a tinge of chill at the corners of his eyes. The attendants around him felt his gaze like a knife, and lowered their heads cautiously.Yong Chi lashed his horse with a whip, and the injury to the muscles and bones of the seated Wu Hao had not healed, so he raised his front hooves and neighed, and galloped towards Yong's mansion under the urging of the steel whip.

Yong Chi thought in his heart: "I know the person who killed the King of Jin. If I get implicated this time, I want to see who else is involved in this matter and who speaks for the Liao family in the court. Why don't we all get implicated here?" ..." Then he thought: "I still underestimate the Liao family, the wolf's ambition is obvious!"

When he arrived at Yong Mansion, Yong Chi dismounted from his horse, Wu Zai was taken away by the servants, and uttered a cry of grief. Yong Chi was full of thoughts, and walked into the gate of the mansion without looking back. It's a pity that I'm so stupid, so it seems that Empress Dowager Yong is not good at regulating... It's better to abolish her son in the future and make up her own mind!"

Walking to the door, Yong Chi recalled unwillingly: "If it wasn't for the constant nightmares and restless sleep recently, how could I be so mentally ill and let my opponent take advantage of the loopholes!"

Yong Chi was groomed under the service of the servants, and the Chu family greeted him, and said with concern: "Husband..."

Yong Chi waved his hand: "I'm reading in the study, you don't need to serve me."

Chu's awareness roughly nodded, and said: "Husband pay attention to rest, don't stay up too late."

After Mrs. Chu left, Yongchi climbed onto the bed in the study alone, and pulled up the quilt to cover it.He knew that tomorrow and the day after, and even before this matter was resolved, he had to work hard and not allow him to be a little bit tired.But ever since the Hanzhong Conquest was blocked and he returned to the capital, he has always had trouble sleeping. Once he suddenly yelled and sat up from the bed, and the Chu family next to him was so frightened that he repeatedly stroked his back, brought water, and comforted him... for a while , Yongchi felt that he had nothing to hide in front of his wife, and his face was dull.

Later, Yong Chi was worried that he would wake up the person next to his pillow again from a nightmare, and he would be unable to fall asleep on the bed...so he simply moved to the study.

Yong Chi himself knew that the disaster he suffered when he was a child was also the same. Afterwards, he always had nightmares, and only the passage of time could heal the wound.Yong Chi also said to himself this time, it's okay, it's just a period of time, just get over it.

That night, Yong Chi fell into a dream again... I don't remember when it started, but a piece of the city wall of the capital has appeared in front of him, and the Fenwu Army is guarding it at an orderly pace.Suddenly the Fenwu army started to stir up a commotion, and a man in commoner clothes came up to see Gu Ao of the city defense.

Yong Chi was overjoyed and said, "This person who peeped at the military fortress must be a criminal, drag him down and behead him!"

That 'Gu Ao' fell down on his knees with a very spineless plop, and begged, "Master Regent! What mistake did I make, you want to kill me?"

Yong Chi said: "You haven't committed a crime now, but you will commit it in the future. What are you doing in a daze, why don't you procrastinate?"

Gu Ao rushed forward and hugged Yong Chi's feet: "My lord, you have a lot of adults. I am willing to do anything for my lord. Please spare my life!"

Yong Chi thought: "He is also a talent, why not use it for me." Then he said: "Liao Quji killed King Jin, how about you go and kill Liao Quji for me?"

Gu Ao repeatedly kowtowed and said: "The regent has orders, and all the little ones obey."

Yong Chi said: "Okay, then you go." He was worried, and called a few of his cronies, Huben: "Follow him, don't let him run away."

Sure enough, after a while, Gu Ao came with Liao Quji's head in his hand, Yong Chi put down a big stone in his heart, he took a few steps forward, and said sincerely, "You and I join hands, why not worry about the peace of the world?"

He tried his best to listen to Gu Ao's answer, but he couldn't see his face clearly anymore.

Yong Chi panicked and opened his eyes, seeing darkness in front of him, he woke up from the dream.

His back was covered in sweat, and Yong Chi listened to his heartbeat in the dark, and said to himself, "What kind of dream is this? How could I spare that thief? He and Liao Quji are like dogs. I think about it every day." Eat its flesh, sleep its skin! How could you have such a dream?"
