Prince’s Multifaceted Wife - C259
He forcefully kept the displeasure in his heart and slowly said to the crowd, “In addition to Wu Ha and Wu Xue, I think that the young maid, La Mei, who is with Wu Xue, should also send someone to follow her. That young maid’s eyes are different from the other maids’, so maybe we can find some valuable clues from her.”
Zhining blurted out without thinking, “I’ll follow Lamei.” Since the young general felt that it was necessary to follow a young maid, then he would let her follow that young maid because she believed in the young general Gu Ziming’s judgement.
“We’ll meet here in a few days?” Bing’er looked at Gu Ziming and Zhining and asked.
“Tomorrow is my father’s third year. After tomorrow, everything here will no longer belong to our Gu family. After tomorrow, I will be homeless, so next time, you won’t be able to come here.”
Gu Ziming raised his head and looked around the room. His heart was filled with boundless emotions. Who would have thought that the general’s estate would change owners and would no longer belong to the Gu family?
Bing’er felt sympathy for Gu Ziming, and was even more worried that they would meet again, “Where should we meet next time?”
“The Southern Mansion and the Chen Mansion are both no match for us. Our goal is too big, so it’s easy for people to pay attention to us.” ZhiNing said to everyone.
“It’s not a good place to talk too much.” Bing-Er twitched her mouth helplessly.
“Shall we go to Liang’s Shop?” It occurred to Sihan that this was a good place for them to work on the case together.
Bing-Er looked at everyone, “Although there are a lot of people in the Liang Household, but there are a lot of benefits to having more people. It can fool a lot of people, so it’s worth considering. And all we have to do is dress up as customers and go into the shop. But, what reason would the young general use to enter the room? The old general has just passed away, so it doesn’t seem like it’s good for the young general to go to the shop to buy things. Furthermore, the young general is already down and out, so where did he get the money from to buy things? ”
Sihan smiled slightly as an idea quickly flashed through her mind. “This is very easy to deal with. Wouldn’t it be fine if Young General stayed in the shop all day?”
Bing’er instantly understood Sihan’s thoughts, and she couldn’t help but chuckle. “Don’t tell me you want the young general to work for your Liang family?” Thinking about how the ice-cold Gu Ziming was going to be a shop assistant at the Liang family’s store, Bing’er couldn’t help but want to laugh. Sihan’s idea was indeed very good, but she didn’t know if the young general would be able to accept Sihan’s suggestion.
Sihan couldn’t help but ask Bing’er. ” “Why not?” This was the best she could think of at the moment.
Gu Ziming’s expression changed slightly. He looked at the ground coldly and clenched his fists.
Seeing that Gu Ziming’s expression was a little ugly, ZhiNing couldn’t help but sigh to herself. They should give Gu Ziming some time to think. If a great general were to suddenly turn into a shop assistant, anyone would hesitate. “I need to return to the Southern Prefecture to settle some matters, so I need to leave this place first. If you have any news, just send someone to the Southern Prefecture to notify me.”
“I also want to head back to Sky One and discuss the details of following Uha.” Bing’er smiled at everyone and followed Zhining out of the room.
Sihan looked deeply at Gu Ziming. She knew Gu Ziming had always been proud. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have forcefully kissed her so he wouldn’t marry Wu Xue. Right now, she really hoped that Gu Ziming would let go of his pride and consider the big picture.
Lu Zhao, who stood at the side, sighed deeply. He approached Sihan without leaving a trace and tugged on her sleeve.
Sihan looked at Lu Zhao in the blink of an eye. Lu Zhao signaled her with his eyes to leave the Purple Bamboo Pavilion.
Sihan knew that Lu Zhao wanted to give Gu Ziming a private room to think things over. She turned around and looked at Gu Ziming with worry, then left the Purple Bamboo Pavilion with Lu Zhao.
Seeing that Sihan and Lu Zhao had left the room, Gu Ziming opened the door and walked in another direction.
When Sihan and Lu Zhao arrived at the main entrance of the general’s manor, they suddenly stopped in their tracks. She turned around and glanced at the general’s manor. Every blade of grass, every brick, and every roof had been with Gu Ziming for twenty years.
Not long after the old general had left him, he had been stripped of control by the emperor. He had lost control of the army, and he had also lost his former brothers who had fought alongside him. This was a heavy blow to him. Now he had to throw away what remained of his pride and arrogance. No one would be able to stand it.
“Why aren’t you leaving?” Lu Zhao halted his steps and turned around to look at the motionless Sihan.
Sihan turned to smile faintly at Lu Shao, “Go back first. I’d like to stay here for a while.”
Lu Zhao took a deep look at the depths of the General’s Estate before leaving in large strides.
Sihan looked at the pleasant scenery of the courtyard. The old parasol tree, the emerald green lawn, the long corridor of the lotus pond, and the tender blooming lotus flowers. Every place was so pleasant and warm.
Suddenly, a familiar figure slowly walked over from the other side of the long corridor. He was dressed in a white brocade robe, looking elegant and graceful. His jet-black hair fluttered slightly in the breeze, and his pair of deep eyes, as well as his stern gaze, had long since lost its former sternness. Her deep eyes were filled with a deep reluctance to part with her gaze.
Sihan walked slowly down the long corridor and stood at the other end, waiting for Gu Ziming, who was slowly approaching her.
As Gu Ziming walked forward, he reluctantly looked at the Gu Mansion that had accompanied him for twenty years. Every place here was filled with his deep and beautiful memories.
Sihan walked towards Gu Ziming with a smile, standing not far in front of him. “You’re very reluctant to part with this place, right?” Even if it was a question, it was a firm answer.
Gu Ziming turned his head and looked at Sihan in surprise. His pair of deep eyes were filled with questions. Didn’t she already leave?
Sihan ignored Gu Ziming’s surprised gaze and looked up at the stars in the sky. “Although, I’ve been here a few times, I really like the scenery and atmosphere here. To be honest, I’m also very reluctant to part with this place.”
What she said was the truth. She really liked the scenery here.
He took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and held it in. He slowly breathed out the faint fragrance that he was inhaling, then opened his eyes and looked at Sihan with a smile. “I really don’t want to part with this place, but this place will belong to me sooner or later.” His voice was firm, and his dull eyes were shining.
Seeing Gu Ziming’s resolute expression, Sihan smiled in relief. She knew Gu Ziming would give up everything for the greater picture.
“However, the next time I come back here, I don’t want to come back alone. I want someone to come back with me and live a happy life together with me.”
With that, Gu Ziming looked deeply at Sihan in the blink of an eye. His pair of deep eyes were filled with dense emotions.
Gu Ziming had suddenly said those sincere words with a deep look in his eyes, causing Sihan to be at a loss as well as a bit happy.
Honestly speaking, she also had a good impression of Gu Ziming. She admired Gu Ziming’s resolute character and was not afraid of being forced by the people of Liao City to refuse to marry Princess Wu Xue. She even liked Gu Ziming a little, but she didn’t know if that was the case.
Even if it was love, she couldn’t accept Gu Ziming. Because she was a future person, appearing out of thin air in this dynasty. If one day she vanished into thin air and returned to the modern world, what would she do if she loved him? Gu Ziming had already lost so much. If he lost her now, then how cruel would the heavens be to Gu Ziming!
