Chapter 80 1 Going Deeper

In the study room of the Daxiang Palace, Ji Qishun looked at the note in his hand, frowning deeply, deep in thought.

Shen Zhufeng sat at the side with a casual face, holding a stove, drinking tea and eating snacks.How comfortable and comfortable it looks.

At this time, he tugged at the corner of the other party's clothes and persuaded him loudly: "It's useless for you to worry about it now. Come on, sit down and eat two snacks first. Don't tell me, the craftsmanship in the imperial dining room is really good today." .”

Ji Qishun opened his hand and said absently, "I won't eat."

Shen Zhufeng saw that side attacks didn't work, so he had no choice but to attack head-on.

Reaching out and snatching the note from the opponent's hand, he threw it into the beast's mouth on the incense burner next to it without hesitation.In an instant, the note was wiped out.

Ji Qishen gave him a dissatisfied look, but didn't say anything.

Anyway, this kind of secret news will be burned sooner or later.

"I bring you this news today, not to worry you, but to make you mentally prepare early." Shen Zhufeng didn't intend to beat around the bush with Ji Qishun today, even though no one wanted to see such a thing happen , but since it has happened, it must be resolved as soon as possible.

After all, Ji Qishun, as the king of a country, is different now.What needs to be faced and undertaken is no longer the gains and losses of a city, a pool, or a soldier, but the fate of a country.

And he himself has to make plans for the future of Zhufenglou.

"What do you want me to do?" Ji Qishun turned his gaze to Shen Zhufeng, with a trace of coldness in his eyes.

Shen Zhufeng smiled and didn't seem to care.

"Ah Qi, it's what you want to do now, not what I want you to do." Patting him on the shoulder, he softened his tone and said, "Let's not care whether the matter of Master's "amnesia" is true or not, First of all, we can no longer use this intelligence line in Country Xi, you and I know very well: if you continue to use it, it is very likely that it will be used by the other party, and we cannot take the risk. And..."

"And once this matter is true, Master is very likely to be used by Li Muge, and one day I will be his enemy. So it's better to be in time..." After all, Ji Qishun couldn't say the four words of cutting grass and roots.

Since he couldn't say it, he would never be able to do it again.

Years of friendship made Shen Zhufeng understand him very well, so he didn't mention it again.He just continued what he said earlier: "It's good that you understand these things, and I hope that you and I can do our best until that day."

After saying that, Shen Zhufeng patted the pastry crumbs on his body, got up and was about to leave.But he was stopped by Ji Qishun just before going out.

"Xiao Liu, I was actually thinking just now, if Master is allowed to restore his memory, we probably won't be able to bother with this matter."

Shen Zhufeng laughed twice "haha", looked at him with an idiot expression and said, "Restore memory? Let alone the two of us can't see his face now, even if we see his face, who will cure him?" ? Is it you or me?" He pointed to Ji Qishun and then to himself, his eyes almost rolled out.

"Don't you know that even Nangong Jing, the number one holy doctor in Jianghu, is helpless?"

Ji Qishun's expression was still very serious, obviously he didn't think what he said was funny.

"There are always contingencies in everything. If you don't try, how will you know? And the method I came up with is not just for restoring Master's memory."

"Oh? How do you say it?" Shen Zhufeng became interested when he heard the words.Arms folded, leaning against the door.

"I've thought about it. We can turn the intelligence line that was planted in Country Xi into a fake. We can disguise an unimportant person as a spy from the Wind Tower, and just send messages to Master at regular intervals. If this If the news reaches Master, he will definitely have doubts about his identity, and because of his character, he will investigate secretly; if it reaches Li Muge, we will just use our tricks and sell him some half-true and half-true news, so that This is confusing."

"Wonderful, wonderful, it's really wonderful!" After hearing this, Shen Zhufeng looked at Ji Qishun with bright eyes, and punched him in the chest, "You kid usually looks like a piece of wood. I have more."

Ji Qishun coughed twice pretending to be calm, in order to hide the complacency in his heart.

He is now the king of a country, how could he tremble all over because of a few compliments from a "charlatan"?

image!image!

Shen Zhufeng looked at him with a smile: I didn't expect Xiaoqi to be so "serious" and cute after becoming the overlord of the north.

Since the approval of the "Eastern Expedition" last time, the whole country of Xi has once again been busy day and night.

As the initiator of this matter, Li Muge naturally bears the brunt of it. He is busier than anyone else, and his handsome face is already showing fatigue.

Fortunately, however, everything went on in an orderly and relatively smooth manner.

It is expected to go out by the end of the month.

Turning his head to look at Gu Yanxi, who was lying on the table with his eyes closed, a smile appeared on his chin with a layer of green residue.Putting his fingers between his brows, he slowly smoothed out the raised wrinkles for him as usual.

Now that he has forgotten all the bad memories, what else still keeps him from letting go?

A moment of fear suddenly flashed in my heart.

The sudden dimming of the candle light concealed the cloudiness in his eyes.

At this time, a person walked in from outside the hall, wearing a light yellow brocade robe, a snow-colored cloak, and dressed in a dandy, who is it if it's not Luo Qiuli?

He walked to the front of the hall, bowed his head and knelt down.In the hand is a gray homing pigeon.

Seeing this, Li Muge got up first and entered the side hall, Luo Qiuli immediately followed.

After handing over the gray carrier pigeon to Li Muge, he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I just intercepted this in Lord Gu's residence." Prevent him from revisiting his "former residence" frequently.

Li Muge didn't speak, but took off the letter box on the pigeon's feet, took out the note inside, and read it unhurriedly.

Luo Qiuli stood aside, also not saying a word.

At this time, it is superfluous to say anything.

The palace lantern beside the curtain flickered suddenly, and then a wisp of blue smoke was so faint that it was almost invisible.

Li Muge withdrew his slender fingers, and the note that was just between his fingers was gone.

"Qiu Li, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Luo Qiuli clasped his hands and replied: "I believe that Mr. Gu has always been in contact with Dong Xiang, and he has passed on the country's information through this method."

"Qiu Li, when did you learn to be tactful with me? What I'm asking is what do you think of this pigeon?" Li Muge's expression darkened, and there was a bit of impatience in his tone.

After experiencing the decisive battle of the Jin Kingdom, it is no longer an unexpected secret that Gu Yanxi contacted Dongxiang through the Wind Tower.But now that he has amnesia, and this pigeon still appears here, things may not be that simple.

Luo Qiuli paused for a moment before saying: "I can only say that this is the first communication message I have intercepted so far."

He couldn't guess whether Gu Yanxi really lost his memory, he didn't have any say in this matter; besides, he couldn't decide whether it was a conspiracy by Xiangguo, after all, the information conveyed in the note was not false.

Perhaps, Xiangguo didn't know that Gu Yanxi had lost his memory and was still sending him messages.However, why was he not intercepted in the same mansion where he lived with him before, but now he can easily obtain it?

By chance, or?

He knew that as long as he answered truthfully, these analyzes would also appear in Li Muge's mind.

"Do you know? In fact, it's not easy for a person like him." After a while, Li Muge said slowly.

He no longer mentioned the "pigeon incident", but turned his attention to Gu Yanxi who was still sleeping in the main hall.

Luo Qiuli nodded: "It's really not easy. Although I have a pure heart, I am destined to be a person full of scheming."

Li Muge looked at Luo Qiuli in surprise, he didn't expect him to know him so well.

Luo Qiuli smiled slightly, but did not explain why he saw Gu Yanxi so thoroughly.

Some things don't need to reveal the reason, just tell the result.

"Qiuli, since you know him, you should understand me even more. So, I don't want him to live so hard anymore, so now I don't even want him to remember anything from the past."

Good one "Since you know him, you should know me even more."

Luo Qiuli suppressed the bitterness in his heart, and nodded solemnly.

At this moment, he already knew what to do.

The night is more quiet, the sound of dripping.

Maybe it's the sultry lights, maybe it's Ruixiang's fascination, or maybe it's the sentence "Since you know him, you should know me better" causing trouble without authorization.

After Luo Qiuli nodded, he couldn't help turning his eyes to Li Muge, and continued: "But no matter how difficult it is for him, there is no more suffering in my heart than your Highness."

When he called him His Highness, he was talking to Huangfu Guangbo, and he was facing each other with the past difficult years.

There are some things that Li Muge can let go of, but he can never forget.

Li Muge shook his head, with a smile on his face: "It may be true when I first changed my appearance, but now my heart and nature have completely changed. There is nothing difficult anymore."

"Since everything has changed, why do you still like him?" Now that the words have begun, Luo Qiuli simply asked the most difficult sentence, but after asking, his heart was not as smooth as expected .

"That's because no one would dislike someone like him." Li Muge looked at Gu Yanxi unconsciously with long-lost tenderness, as if he hadn't changed.

Luo Qiu was stunned: Could it be that, the love goes deeper and deeper without knowing where it started?

"Then why don't I like him?" The words blurted out before the brain could respond.Luo Qiuli pursed her thin lips tightly, not daring to look at Li Muge's expression.

"That's because you already have someone you like." Li Muge only patted his head and said, with year-old pampering in his eyes.As if he was still young, he was still the green young man who followed him around.

"Then you...do you know who he is?" Luo Qiuli's heart skipped a beat when he finished speaking the last word.The love he had been tossing and turning for many years finally came to his mouth, and this question exhausted all his courage.

"Obviously, it's Furong." Li Muge winked at him meaningfully, expressing that he knew it already.

When Luo Qiuli heard this, he fell into a long silence.

Lowering his head without any trace, he hid his already red eye sockets in the shadow of the candlelight, desperately holding back the tears that he wanted to shed.

Seeing him like this, Li Muge thought he was shy.So he rubbed his hair vigorously again, pretending to be angry and said: "Look at your usual unrestrained appearance, how come you are twisting upside down on the square? Don't blame me for going to Furong myself!"

He actually didn't know how much effort and how long it took the other party to suppress his actions before he could barely maintain his superficial calmness, and pretended to be distressed and said that sentence: "But she always likes you."

Li Muge sighed softly, with a bit of apology in his tone: "But I can only like Gu Yanxi in this life, so as long as you persist, Furong will still like you."

Taking a deep breath, Luo Qiuli's vision finally blurred.

Just before the secret was revealed, he pulled out his usual cynical smile and fled in front of Li Muge.

At this time, even Li Muge felt a little strange.But before he had time to think deeply, Gu Yanxi had faintly woke up.

"Mu Ge..." The dream has not completely dissipated, he whispered his name, as if he was in his dream just now.

Li Muge walked in front of him with a smile, and gently stroked his side face with somewhat rough fingers.

A familiar breath came from the end of her nose, Gu Yanxi half closed her eyes, and held the warmth that was sticking to her cheeks in her hands.

"I had a dream just now. In the dream, you fell under my sword covered in blood. But I pushed the sword a little further." Gu Yanxi's voice trembled slightly, and her palms were cold.

Li Muge felt a slight pain in his heart, leaned over to wrap his arms around him, and softly comforted him: "It's just a dream, and it's all over..."

Gu Yanxi also knew it was a dream, but it was such a dream that made him feel like a boulder was stuck in his heart, which he couldn't let go of for a long time.

After hesitating for a long while, he still asked aloud: "Mu Ge, did I really not do anything to hurt you before?"

Li Muge stretched out his index finger and shook it in front of his eyes: "How is it possible, you used to make me sad and hurt me, and I couldn't eat every day, and I was so greedy when I saw it, hey! I can't bear to look back, I can't bear to look back..."

After hearing his words, Gu Yanxi was completely awake, and snapped his index finger fiercely, until he heard a scream of satisfaction, and the boulder that had just blocked his heart was completely removed.

It turns out that when you feel stuck, you can use this simple and rude method to solve it.

"Hey! I've written all the memorials on the 'Eastern Expedition' and put them on my desk. I'm going back."

Hearing this, Li Muge quickly grabbed the corner of the other party's clothes, blinked a pair of peach blossom eyes, and pretended to be pitiful: "Aiqing, the night is long, why do you have the heart to leave me here alone to fight alone?"

Gu Yanxi pulled out the corner of her clothes from his hand with a little disgust, and said decisively: "It's not that I want to rule the world, why bother to make wedding dresses for others." .

"Then how about when the hegemony can be achieved in the future, this king promises you half of the country?" When he said this, he was not half joking, but full of sincerity.If he can stay by his side all the time, he is willing to share the beautiful country with him forever.

Gu Yanxi didn't seem to hear it at all, and continued walking towards the door with a wave of her sleeves.

Li Muge saw that such a handicraft would make people abandon him like a shoe, he couldn't help but said in his heart: What else can subdue him in the future?

Before stepping out of the gate, Gu Yanxi turned around suddenly.

Hope was rekindled in Li Muge's eyes, but he saw that the other party came back to take the cloak, and walked out the door without hesitation.

In the cold winter night, Li Muge knew for the first time what it means to be alone.

A few days later, Li Muge announced the list of officials for this "Eastern Expedition" in the court hall.

The generals who performed outstandingly in the Battle of Jin last time were all on the list.Such as General Peng Yun and others.

This time he added a few practical civil servants to strengthen the management of logistics.

Since he was going to lead the army this time, Luo Qiuli was left in the country to take charge of the support.

After some deployment, although it is not perfect, it is also exhausted.

It's just that in the end, Gu Yanxi's name didn't appear on the list.

Gu Yanxi frowned, took the wat out of the queue, and bowed to the throne: "Sir, Gu Yanxi, please go to battle."

Seeing Li Muge, the smile in his originally smiling eyes instantly disappeared."Huh?" in a calm voice.

"Sir, Gu Yanxi, please join us in this Eastern Expedition." Faced with the monarch's displeasure, Gu Yanxi did not retreat in the slightest, and repeated what he had just said.

"No!" Li Muge waved his sleeves and waved his hands.No explanation was given.

It's really rare for His Majesty to act like this?How did Mr. Gu offend Sacred Heart?

The various officials in the hall began to exchange glances with each other, tacit understanding.

"Your Majesty's meaning, I don't understand. Your Majesty, please think twice about the deployment of the Eastern Expedition." Gu Yanxi straightened her back, and her words were a bit sharp.

Hearing this, the other officials quickly exchanged looks again: With Mr. Gu's temper, it is indeed easy to offend the Sacred Heart.

Seeing this, Luo Qiuli hurried out to smooth things over.

Who made him the panacea in official circles and the lubricant in court?

But before he could speak, Li Muge spoke first.

"Aiqing, do you really want to understand?" When he said this, his eyes smiled again.But also obviously malicious.

Gu Yanxi seemed to be aware of it, so she didn't dare to nod her head in agreement.

But he didn't know that "acquiescence" was also a kind of consent.

So Li Muge said calmly in front of the civil and military officials of the court: "The reason why this king doesn't let you go to the east is because he doesn't want you to get hurt again. If you make a mistake, this king will definitely be extremely sad."

As soon as he said this, the officials no longer exchanged looks, and were all stunned.

Now, what is the situation?

Luo Qiuli stood aside in embarrassment, looking at his master with resentment in his eyes: Now you are boldly "confessing" in front of everyone, how can I cover it up for you?

Gu Yanxi was covered with frost, her hands were shaking.

Can he tell the difference between occasions?time?Place?

As a result, an early court ended in such a strange way.

Rumors and gossips also arose one after another from this time.

Gu Yanxi stood in the warm pavilion of the West Hall with a sullen expression, waiting for Li Muge to give him an explanation.

Li Muge waved back the servants on the left and right, stepped forward and hugged him, his arms were warm and soft.

This hug immediately made Gu Yanxi lose his temper.

After struggling for a while, she still didn't push him away.

"Yanxi, what I just said in court is the truth."

Gu Yanxi said "En", her voice was muffled, but it was considered a response.

"I don't want to go through the war of losing you again, I admit... I'm scared."

For someone like him to say "scared", even Gu Yanxi would have to be moved.

"I..." He raised his arms and hugged him, "I won't let you lose me again."
