Mountain and River Pillow - v2 Chapter 159

    When the carriage was heading towards Gu Mansion, Wei Yun had already captured the last city in Qingzhou.

    After the Yushui broke, Qingzhou had no natural defense. Wei Yun knew that Zhao Yue did not really want to attack Bailing, so he did not withdraw his troops at all. Instead, he attacked all the way before Zhao Yue’s letter came. Divided into three ways with Shen You Qin Shiyue and won the entire Qingzhou. At the same time, a letter was sent to Chu Linyang in Luozhou, asking him to bring troops here.

    By the time Zhao Yue’s letter arrived, Qingzhou had already fallen into the hands of Wei Yun. Wei Yun looked at Zhao Yue’s letter, and Qin Shiyue said anxiously, “My lord, what does Zhao Yue say?”

    “He wants us to retreat back to Yushui.”

    Wei Yun squeezed the letter and said coldly, “The date of receiving the letter will be counted, and one day later, he will bring back the eldest lady with a finger.”

    Qin Shiyue took a deep breath: “Then what should we do, let’s go back?”

    “How long will Brother Chu have?”

    “The letter says it will arrive at noon today.”

    “Prepare to pull out the camp, Big Brother Chu is here, give him all the west of Yushui in Qingzhou, and we will return to Yushui. Send someone to focus on the people who deliver the letter to Zhao Yue, don’t let them fly pigeons to pass the book, The pigeons that fly out will all be shot.”

     Zhao Yue’s request to retreat was expected, and if he called Chu Linyang Yu Shui, he would have done it. If there is no flying pigeon to pass the book, waiting for Zhao Yue’s second letter to come, I am afraid it will take another half a month.

    And this half month should be enough for Gu Chusheng to grasp the situation in Beijing. According to the original prediction, Zhao Yue should be about to become poisoned now, and Gu Chusheng and the eldest princess will join hands to gain control of Huajing, and it should be only these days.

    Wei Yun pushed the current situation again, and then said: “After retreating to Yushui, together, lead the troops into Kunzhou.”

    “Your Highness is planning to invade Huajing immediately as long as Gu Chusheng grasps the situation in the army?”

    Wei Yun nodded, he raised his eyes to look in the direction of Huajing, with a little warmth in his eyes: “I can’t let the eldest lady and the little prince stay there for too long, I have to take care of her.”

    Hearing this, Qin Shiyue was stunned for a while, then he laughed: “Speaking of which, Xiao Hou is already a father.”

     Wei Yun pursed his lips when he heard this, and couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth.

    He rolled up his sleeves and looked into the distance. After a long time, he finally said, “Yes.”

    He is also a father.

    Wei Yun made all the preparations, while Gu Chusheng respectfully invited the eldest princess to Gu’s mansion, and after all the private soldiers were ready, he sat in the room and waited for Zhao Yue.

    It was dawn at this time, Zhao Yue was taking off the medicine bag, his blurred eyes became clear, Zhang Hui saw the focus in his eyes, and said happily: “Your Majesty, but see already?”

    Zhao Yue got used to it for a while. It had been a long time since he could see it. Today, he suddenly saw the light, and he was in a better mood.

    Speaking, he stood up and hurried to the palace of the eldest princess, and said happily: “Can Concubine Mei wake up now?”

    As soon as he asked, he saw the palace maid rushing in and panicked: “Your Majesty!”

    “Presumptuous!” Zhang Hui shouted: “What kind of manner is it in such a hurry?”

    “Your Majesty,” the maid ignored Zhang Hui and said anxiously, “Concubine Mei is gone!”

    Zhao Yue’s face turned cold, Zhang Hui hesitantly stepped forward: “I have to send someone to find…”

    Zhao Yue said in a cold voice, then walked to the imperial study, and instructed: “Call the great scholar Gu Chusheng to the palace to see you.”

    Gu Chusheng was waiting for Zhao Yue’s words, he put on his official robe, entered the palace calmly, and kowtowed: “Meet Your Majesty.”

    Zhao Yue screened the crowd and asked straight to the point: “Where is the eldest princess?”

    Gu Chusheng raised his head with a puzzled expression: “What do you mean by Your Majesty?”

    “Stop putting on me!”

    Zhao Yue roared: “Where did you give me people?!”

    “Your Majesty said it strangely, how could Wei Chen know where Concubine Mei is?”

    Zhao Yue didn’t speak, he stared at Gu Chusheng and breathed slightly: “I’ll show you Chu Yu, I promise that Chu Yu is all right, you bring the eldest princess back to me.”

    “Your Majesty and I want to be alone, but are you just going to see them in exchange?”

    Gu Chusheng smiled and did not go around with Zhao Yue, Zhao Yue knocked on the golden seat and said coldly: “You know how much Chu Yu paid for, you thought you tied Concubine Mei , will I let Chu Yu go?”

    “Your Majesty tied Miss Chu to make Miss Chu threaten Wei Yun as a hostage. Then Miss Chu is in Huajing, it is enough to make Wei Yun feel threatened, why must In His Majesty’s hands?”

    Gu Chusheng looked at Zhao Yue and sighed: “Your Majesty, Wei Chen does not want to be an enemy of Your Majesty, Wei Chen is just worried about Miss Chu, she is pregnant now, it is a dangerous time, Wei Chen I just want to take care of her myself.”

      “

    “In the beginning, Concubine Mei already had a concubine,” Gu Chusheng looked at Zhao Yue quietly: “Have you let go again?”

     Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment. He looked at Gu Chusheng in front of him and reacted suddenly.

    It is impossible for Gu Chusheng to join forces with Wei Yun…

    Zhao Yue knew too well that Gu Chusheng was the same person as him. Back then, he could not wait to eat Mei Hanxue, but now Gu Chusheng has wanted to kill Wei Yun for a long time, so why join forces?

    He hesitated for a moment, then Gu Chusheng laughed lightly: “I won’t talk to your majesty, Chu Sheng only has three things in his mind, the people, the imperial power, and Chu Yu. Don’t force me to take Yao Yong’s food and grass. You don’t want to fight with Wei Chen in Huajing first, right?”

    “You threaten me?”

    “It is His Majesty who is threatening Wei Chen!”

    Gu Chu raised his voice abruptly: “Which step of the request made by Wei Chen ruined His Majesty’s plan?! She has been spoiled since she was a child, and now she is pregnant again. Shut it down, what do you want me to do when she comes out?!”

    “Compare your heart, Empress Mei is in my hands,” Gu Chusheng looked at Zhao Yue coldly: “I won’t see Chu Yu for a day, you don’t want to see Mei Concubine for a day. Chu Yu is gone. For one hair, I will make the princess pay back ten times!”

    “You dare!” Zhao Yue slapped the table: “If you dare to touch her with a finger, I will cut out the child in Chu Yu’s belly and give it to you, Wei Yun’s child, must be Lord Gu. You must be delighted to see it.”

    Hearing this, Gu Chusheng smiled: “Your Majesty said it very well, I was really happy when I saw Wei Yun’s child, but I don’t know if His Majesty was happy when he saw his child? “

    Zhao Yue’s complexion turned pale, Gu Chusheng laughed, turned and walked out.

    Seeing that he didn’t care, Zhao Yue finally couldn’t help but say, “Should you take Chu Yu to heart?”

    Gu Chusheng stopped, and after a long time, he sighed softly.

    “If you don’t take it to heart, why should Wei Chen argue with His Majesty?”

     Neither of them spoke. After a long time, Zhao Yue finally said, “I will send her to the Gu residence, and you will be under house arrest with her from now on.”

    “Your Majesty…”

    “This is the bottom line!” Zhao Yue raised a voice, Gu Chusheng did not speak, he thought for a moment, nodded and said: “Okay. Concubine Mei brought it back.”

    After finishing speaking, Gu Chusheng strode out.

    After he went out, Zhao Yue kicked over the table, Zhang Hui hurriedly came out and said: “Your Majesty, Your Majesty calm down!”

    “Too deceitful…” Zhao Yue trembled: “Too deceitful!”

    “Your Majesty,” Zhang Hui whispered: “It’s better for the servant to lead someone with you. As long as the niece escapes, the servant will immediately…”

    Speaking, Zhang Hui made a “throat cut” gesture, Zhao Yue sneered: “Kill Gu Chusheng in the capital? Do you know how many people he buried in Huajing?”

    “If he really goes against it,” Zhao Yue looked stern: “Who kills who is still uncertain.”

    “Then Your Majesty…Is this forbearance?”

    Zhang Hui hesitated, Zhao Yue did not speak, after a long time, he smiled slowly: “Can you bear it?”

    He had bloodthirsty ferocity in his eyes: “I have endured so many things in my life, now that I am going to die, I still have to endure them? Don’t they care about this great Chu, this world, this people? ?”

    Zhao Yue felt his blood surging, he put his hands on his knees, panting heavily: “It’s hard for me, don’t think of any of them! They think I’m bad now? Ha,” Zhao Yue laughed aloud: “I’ll let them see how bad people can be! Zhang Hui, you order to go down,” Zhao Yue beckoned, called Zhang Hui back to his side, and whispered: “Let Jiang Soldiers of Bai, throw all the corpses of the plague in the river.”

    “Your Majesty?!”

    Zhang Hui screamed in horror: “You are…you are…”

    “What, Zhang Hui,” Zhao Yue smiled and leaned back on the chair: “You think I’m absurd too?”

    “Your Majesty…”

    Zhang Hui didn’t know how to persuade, Zhao Yue put his head in one hand and smiled: “Then I want to do another thing, you can send someone to Beidi and tell Su Cha , I should cooperate with him inside and outside, attack Baizhou, and then make a way for him from Qingzhou alone, make way for him to take Huajing directly, and send him Yanzhou. Then tell Chen Guo, the same thing, let him attack Luozhou. This is a big deal. Chu Jiangshan, any country that they can conquer, I will sign a covenant to give them all! They are short of food and I will give them food, and they are short of soldiers, and I have only one request.” Zhao Yue smiled: “Put it Wei Yun, Song Shilan, Chu Linyang, these chaotic ministers and thieves, all smashed my corpse into ten thousand pieces!”

    “Your Majesty…”

    Zhang Hui’s lips trembled: “You are crazy…”

    “I’m crazy?” When Zhao Yue heard this, he laughed out loud: “Yes, I’m crazy, but so what?!”

    Zhao Yue stood up, threw her sleeves behind her, and said angrily: “I am crazy, I am also the emperor of this Great Chu! After all the hardships and hard work, they finally became an emperor, and they have to deliberately turn against me like this. What did I do wrong? What’s wrong with the eldest princess building a star-picking building? I don’t pay a lot of taxes, isn’t it just to guard against them? This is forcing me to…”

    Zhao Yue’s voice slowly lowered: “They want to kill me, that’s all… They also want to provoke the only person who is good to me to kill me… This world has taken everything I have. Go, they want to grab even the only and most important eldest princess, you say,” Zhao Yue looked up at Zhang Hui: “I did this, did I make a mistake?”

    “They treat me like this, can’t they allow me to take revenge?! From the day they forced me, they should know what price they have to pay!”

    Zhang Hui did not speak, Zhao Yue looked at him calmly: “Zhang Hui, if you don’t want to, I won’t force you, just leave, you have served me for many years, I will not do anything to you what.”

    After finishing speaking, Zhao Yue turned around and didn’t look at Zhang Hui, but after a long time, he heard Zhang Hui’s voice behind him: “My subordinates take orders.”

    Zhao Yue closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

    He waved his hand: “Send Chu Yu away, pick up the empress, and then send someone to surround the Gu residence.”

    Zhang Hui went down and took people to the dungeon. When they went to the dungeon, Chu Yu was still asleep in a daze. In the dungeon, day and night, she basically didn’t know whether she was awake or asleep. Zhang Hui looked at her and said embarrassedly, “Come out and follow.”

    Chu Yu was calm, and knew that it was either Wei Yun or Gu Chusheng who rescued her.

    She smiled and stretched, got off the bed and said, “Eunuch Zhang came to pick him up in person, Chu Yu is really frightened.”

    Zhang Hui ignored her, led Chu Yu out, tied Chu Yu, and put him on the carriage. Chu Yu counted on the carriage for about half an hour. Finally stopped, and then heard Zhang Hui say: “Come down.”

    Speaking, Chu Yu felt that the curtain in front of her was being opened, she looked up and saw Gu Chusheng standing outside the carriage, his face was calm, and she was not surprised at all, Chu Yu was I was stunned for a while, and then said happily: “Gu Chusheng?”

    Gu Chusheng smiled lightly, he stretched out his bookish hand, and said gently, “I’m here to pick you up, come down, walk slower.”

    The author has something to say:  Is Gu Chu handsome at the moment?

    Don’t worry, Wei Yun was even more handsome in the final battle.
