Li Baolu sat cross-legged on the couch and was sweating profusely. Gu Jingyun sat across from her and watched her eat, suddenly feeling a little hungry.

  Li Baolu glanced at him sensitively, took a small bowl and put some for him, pushed it in front of him and said, "You can eat some too."

  How can a fifteen-year-old boy not have a late-night snack?

  Gu Jingyun squeezed a pair of chopsticks to accompany her to eat. He felt that as long as he was with her, he didn't have to worry about having a bad appetite.

After eating and drinking enough, Li Baolu was a little sleepy again, Gu Jingyun turned back to the inner room and took out a letter, "Uncle's letter has arrived, the matter in the capital has been dealt with, he tells us to go back anytime, Ru Ning's matter It can even be handed over to the family.”

   "Uncle must have disliked us for going too long on the road," Li Baolu took the letter and opened it and said, "We've walked for 18 days and haven't arrived yet..."

   "Yeah," Li Baolu quickly glanced at the contents of the letter. The day after Gu Huaijin left, Lord Gu resigned from the court for him, because he was ill and could no longer be competent for the work of the Hanlin Academy.

  The emperor threw the book to the master of the Hanlin Academy and agreed.

   So Gu Huaijin is no longer an official, but a former Tanhualang who used to be an official.

   At the same time, a censor impeached Gu Houye for not being strict with his family, and his son stopped his wife and remarried.

   Qin Shi only divorced your son five days ago. Didn't that Fang Shi married during their marriage?

   Lord Gu, as a loyal and brave lord, knew that the law condoned his son, corrupted the atmosphere, and had an extremely bad influence.

  The emperor didn't let Lord Gu go up and defend himself. He didn't want the Qin family to be an excuse for the courtiers to fight the water fight, even if the starting point was for the Qin family's good.

   Qin Xinfang also didn't have this hobby, and Gu Houye was very knowledgeable and folded up and prayed for the skeleton, quit the court, and just served as a leisure Houye.

  The emperor wanted to retain it twice and then agreed, so now Gu Huaide and Gu Huaixin are still officials in the court, but they are both gracious and idle, and they do not have the qualifications to go to court.

   Gu Huaijin, who was originally given high hopes by the Gu family, was also abandoned. Now that the Gu family has been cut off, he can only put his hopes on the third generation, and the best of the third generation is Gu Lekang.

In the past, Gu Lekang was the eldest son of Tanhua Lang, and his mother's Fang family was also related to Concubine Lan Gui. He was taught by a world-renowned Confucian scholar. He was also smart and alert. .

   He is still too young, and no one knows where he will go in the future. Obviously, the Gu family does not pay as much attention to him as before, otherwise he will not be allowed to return home with his parents.

  Li Baolu still remembered the young man who was in high spirits when we first met, so proud and conceited that he wanted to lift his head to the sky.

   She hated his arrogance at the time, but looking at it now, maybe for him, those days were probably the best, right?

  Li Baolu sighed slightly with her excited heart, and folded the letter and put it aside, "Master Gu is decisive. If he says he resigns, he will resign, and if he says he will retire, he will retire."

"Unless he is willing to let his sons and grandchildren go to the battlefield, and then use military merit to find a way out, otherwise staying in the court is just a joke." Gu Jingyun said lightly: "It's a pity that he wants the Gu family to turn martial arts into literature. A cousin's kung fu is average at once, and going to the battlefield is just a few extra lives."

"If I were him, I would let a few grandchildren have children as soon as possible, and then focus on cultivating the next generation. If the children born still have no talent for reading, in order not to completely defeat the Gu family, he can only let them practice martial arts and join the army in the future. Although he may die in battle, he can also preserve the prosperity of the Gu family."

   Now, isn't the glory of Gu's family earned by Lord Gu Hou and his several concubines desperately?

Gu Jingyun sneered at the corner of his mouth. It was rare for the Gu family to find a genius who could read. Lord Gu Hou devoted all his energy to nurturing him, and tried his best to marry his mother. It's a pity that he made a mistake and made a mistake. Efforts vanished in an instant.

  With the Qin family around, it will be even more difficult for the Gu family to become a civil servant in the future. Unless he goes into industry and has real achievements in the local area, it will be difficult to get ahead.

Li Baolu had already thought of this, and she was relieved to know that the Gu family would not be doing well, she quickly shifted her attention, touched the letter paper, and said, "We have to stay in Kaifeng for two days, why don't we write back to my uncle as well. Well, let them know that we are safe and sound."

  Gu Jingyun looked at her quietly.

   "By the way, I also wrote a letter to my master. I want to ask him about Kaifeng Mansion. If the forces in the rivers and lakes of Kaifeng are too complicated, I think we should bypass Kaifeng when we return."

"People don't fight with officials. I hold the official position of the fourth-rank Hanlin. Why do you think those Jianghu people come to provoke us?" Gu Jingyun stared at his wife's head curiously, but didn't understand her brain circuit, it shouldn't be those Do Jianghu people avoid their officials?

"Hey," Li Baolu sighed heavily, looking sadly at the dark sky outside and said, "You must know that there is a place in the world called 'Jianghu', and there is a kind of person called 'brainless', you forgot our memory The thousand and one stories of the rivers and lakes that accompany us in our practice? Nearly half of the disputes are inexplicable. When a word disagrees, a sword is drawn. When A kills B, B's son tries to kill A to avenge his father. , and then A's son will kill B's son again, after you kill me, I will kill you again, and it will become a feud in an instant, and there will be no end to killing and killing..."

  Gu Jingyun held his forehead with a headache.

   "So," Li Baolu decided with a firm look: "As the three good citizens of Great Chu, for our own safety, if we can hide, we will never go to these Jianghu people who most cause trouble."

   "Your master is also from Jianghu."

   "Do you think a Jianghu person would go shopping with a child around his neck all day long and haggle for some snacks?"

  Gu Jingyun:  …

   "My master has already been assimilated by us into a good family man, don't compare the rough man like Jianghu people with my master."

   Gu Jingyun saw her proud face and couldn't help but ask with a smile, "Then do you really want to find a teacher for Master and let him start a family and start a business?"

"This kind of personal problem should still be solved by the master himself," Li Baolute said openly, "it would be better for him to marry someone he likes and be a teacher's wife. There is nothing wrong with it. For knights in the world, marrying a wife who has no common language is more painful than being single, and if you harm yourself, you will not only harm others and children. Anyway, my master is still young, and this kind of problem can be considered slowly. "

   The smile on Gu Jingyun's face gradually disappeared, and he thought of his mother.

   Her age is indeed not young in the eyes of the world. Those who get married early can be grandmothers.

   But for the life she has left, she is still young.

   Even if she is in poor health, the Qin family's current ability can keep her alive for at least another 20 years.

   He is accompanied by Baolu all the way, and he may have children in the future, so he will not be lonely, but what about her?

   He didn't think that as a son, he could always be by her side, everyone would be lonely, and some words would not be said to the wrong person.

  Gu Jingyun looked at Li Baolu in a daze.

  Li Baolu touched her cheek and asked, "What's wrong?"

   Gu Jingyun raised his mouth slightly, got up and said, "I'll help you grind the ink letter, you can write it."

  Li Baolu inexplicably touched her cheek again, and after confirming that there was nothing dirty, she spread out the letter.

   Both letters were written by Li Baolu. Gu Jingyun had never been interested in non-technical letters like reporting safety.

   Seeing that Li Baolu had written the letter and sealed it, he got up and said, "We're almost done with digestion, let's wash up and sleep."

  Li Baolu realized that her stomach was no longer supported, but she was no longer sleepy.

   But at this time, it was even more exposed. There were only a few low-pitched insects outside. Obviously, the nightlife in Kaifeng had already ended. Looking at the dark circles under Gu Jingyun's eyes, Li Baolu followed him to the bed and lay down.

Li Baolu had been sleeping since noon, but Gu Jingyun had a normal routine, so she fell asleep as soon as she lay on the bed, only Li Baolu stared at the pattern on the tent with her big round eyes until she painted the pattern on it. She just turned her head and stared at Gu Jingyun again, but she still didn't feel sleepy at all.

  Oh, it's just distress, I knew I didn't sleep so much during the day.

   Or maybe Gu Jingyun shouldn't have been leading him to talk so much, he should have climbed into bed as soon as he was full...

But Gu Jingyun is really good-looking, the baby fat on his face only leaves a shadow, his face gradually opens up, and the corners of his mouth show some sharp edges when he purses. Now, because he is asleep, his face is soft, there is something she has never seen before. The handsome and weak I have seen.

  Li Baolu couldn't help loving her heart, she couldn't help but leaned forward and kissed his cheek gently, soft, fleshy, with a faint aroma...

   Li Baolu blushed, pulled up the quilt and buried herself in, hiding herself like an ostrich.

  Gu Jingyun felt helpless in his heart, and his thunderous heartbeat gradually calmed down. He pretended to turn over and took the person under the quilt into his arms.

  Li Baolu stiffened for a while, making sure that Gu Jingyun didn't wake up, so she secretly lifted the quilt and found a comfortable position in his arms to lie down. She stared at the white lingerie in front of her, and her eyelids gradually grew heavier...

When she slept a lot, she naturally woke up early, the sky was still dark, and Li Baolu woke up when the **** croaked three times. Seeing that Gu Jingyun was still asleep, she knew that he had not recovered from the fatigue of the journey. She didn't call him, and quietly lifted the quilt. Get out of bed, change clothes and open the door.

  The whole yard was quiet, only some noises could be heard from the inn in front, it seemed that the guys in the shop were busy.

  Li Baolu stood in the dark and took a deep breath of the cool air, then jumped up to the rockery standing in the yard, sitting cross-legged on it to practice inner strength.

She meditated for half an hour, and the darkness gradually dissipated. At first, a little glow appeared on the horizon, and then the red glow broke through more and more clouds. In less than a quarter of an hour, half of the sky was dyed red, and the orange-yellow sun also rose from the mountains. The tip shows a small corner.

  Li Baolu took a deep breath, and was about to get up and jump off the rockery after finishing work, when she noticed that a few eyes fell on her, she immediately stopped moving, and continued to sit on the rockery and look up at the sunrise in the sky.

   When the whole sun came out and their door opened, Li Baolu turned around and waved to Gu Jingyun with a smile, "Husband, come and see, today's sunrise is beautiful."
