Gu Wei curled his lips slightly, finding it amusing at his mother's novel idea.
But he was gentle and never liked to spoil other people's fun, so he nodded gently, "Maybe."
As he spoke, he drank a glass of wine, his narrow peach blossom eyes full of thought.
Could it be that the Pei family is also a noble family that has survived from the Zhou Dynasty?
It’s just that the Pei family chose to enter the world, while the Feng family chose to leave the world.
Then their sacrificial tradition should have been passed down from the Zhou Dynasty.
Gu Wei is now somewhat curious about the legendary Zhou Dynasty.
Such a simple tradition has remained unchanged after so many years.
What did the only country on this continent, mysterious and powerful, look like?
Just as I was thinking about it, a soft body suddenly leaned over to me.
Gu Wei lowered his eyes and saw Xie Ling leaning against him with her eyes closed. Her long eyelashes cast a fan-like shadow in the dim candlelight, and her cherry-red lips were crystal clear with some residual wine on them.
The wine brewed in Fengjia Village is very mellow and naturally has a high alcohol content. Xie Ling was drunk after drinking a few glasses. She probably didn't expect that she would subconsciously lean towards Gu Wei when she was drunk.
In Gu Wei's eyes, Xie Ling has always been an omnipotent character, cold and powerful.
Seeing that Zui Ling was weak and leaning against him, his heart instantly softened. He picked up Xie Ling, apologized to the people around him, and went straight to the room.
The young ladies in Fengjia Village were very bold. They all laughed and saw them off, with knowing looks in their eyes.
Gu Wei carried Xie Ling back to the room, put her on the bed, and wiped the wine off her face.
Xie Ling suddenly reached out, hooked her hands around his neck, and moved close to his lips.
The room was dim, Xie Ling's whole body was hot, her skin was faintly pink, her lips were rosy, and her eyes were blurry.
Gu Weiqin was distracted and restless.
Just as she was about to push the man down on the bed, Xie Ling suddenly opened her mouth and vomited all over Gu Wei with a "wow".
Gu Wei's eyes were gentle, he pinched Xie Ling's nose lovingly, his voice was low and magnetic.
"You, you."
He did not look angry at all. After he finished speaking, he took off his coat and put it aside. Then he carefully took off Xie Ling's dirty clothes and changed her into clean clothes.
He even considerately helped Xie Ling remove the wooden hairpin on her head and straightened her long black hair before walking out of the room and going to the side room to take a cold shower to calm her restlessness.
When he came back, Xie Ling had already fallen asleep.
Gu Wei leaned gently on the bed, staring at her tenderly and tirelessly all night long.
Everyone thought something was going to happen to them.
In fact, Gu Wei had only one thought in his mind at this moment.
I am the only one in the world who can see how weak and powerless Aling looks.
Really happy.
The next day, Xie Ling woke up with a splitting headache.
Looking down, he saw Gu Wei sleeping soundly against the corner of his clothes.
Before Xie Ling could move him, Gu Wei opened his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Are you awake?"
Xie Ling nodded and looked down. She found that she was fully dressed and there were no suspicious marks on her body.
The smell of alcohol on his body disappeared completely, probably because Gu Wei helped him clean it.
A few fragments flashed through my mind, as if I had vomited?
Xie Ling was a little embarrassed. "I vomited on you. I'm really sorry. I didn't know the Feng family's wine was so strong."
Gu Wei shook his head, his eyes gentle, "I didn't vomit, you remembered it wrong."
When Xie Ling heard what Gu Wei said, she felt a little disappointed.
Gu Wei is too upright. He doesn't even take advantage of someone's misfortune? I am his wife, and he can still control himself.
I was also a little happy that I had picked up a treasure. He was indeed a gentleman.
Two complicated emotions intertwined, she leaned over, kissed Gu Wei's forehead, and whispered: "Thank you for yesterday."
Gu Wei’s eyes widened and his ears turned red.
There were several big words written all over his face.
My wife kissed me!
After they finished washing up, they opened the door and saw that all the other families were already sitting under the big sycamore tree, with their bags and clothes packed aside.
Except for Xie Ling, almost no one was drunk and everyone was very sober.
There are many banquets of all sizes in Beijiang, and drinking is a must at all banquets. Getting drunk would be embarrassing and lose your composure.
They were all children of wealthy families and had received professional training since childhood. The little bit of wine in Fengjia Village was nothing to them.
Gu Wei counted the number of people and was about to lead everyone away.
On the road in the distance, Grandpa Feng hurried over with Fengjian Qingli and told Gu Wei his purpose.
Gu Wei frowned slightly, "To be honest, we are on this trip to escape, so it is really not suitable for you to join us."
Grandpa Feng shook his head. "It's okay. Even if he died, it's all because of his incompetence. Don't worry. Qingli is very smart and won't hold you back. Maybe he can even help you."
Since people said so, Gu Wei was too embarrassed to say anything more and had to accept Fengjian Qingli as an "extra staff member".
Under the gaze of the Feng family, the group walked out of the secret cave and came to the official road outside Wuming Mountain.
After walking only a few hundred meters, I saw a group of soldiers holding a portrait and looking fiercely at people in the distance.
Everyone passing by, whether they were merchants or farmers, had to look at their portraits before they could pass.
Xie Ling had a bad feeling in her heart.
Gu Wei made a prompt decision and turned back with the group, walked along the side path, and came to a big tree.
Feng Jian Qingli volunteered, "Let me go and take a look? They don't know me."
Xie Ling nodded, "Okay, be careful."
Soon, Feng Jian Qingli came back with a piece of paper in his hand. "Look, there is only this piece of paper, and what is drawn on it is..."
Feng Jian Qingli paused, her brows twisted, "It seems to be Brother Gu Wei?"
Xie Ling pulled the drawing over and a frown appeared on his forehead.
Who is this person with crooked eyes and slanted mouth?
A group of people passed it around and read it, and they were all speechless.
Malicious vilification!
Gu Wei was very famous in Shangjing, so the court painters naturally knew what he looked like, and the original drawings they made were quite similar.
However, there was no printing technology in this dynasty. When the drawings were passed to local government offices, there were not enough drawings. They could only ask local painters to continue drawing according to the drawings. As the drawings were passed around, they became like this.
However, no one knows whether they have backup drawings of similar types, so it is better to be cautious.
Gu Wei took out the map, pondered for a moment, and said, "Split into two groups. A Ling and I will go one way, and the rest of you will go one way. Disguise yourself as villagers fleeing famine, and finally meet in Ren County. Ren County is remote, so the guards will be looser, and it's not far from our destination."
There is only Gu Wei's portrait on the drawing. As long as they are separated from Gu Wei, the bomb, the others will naturally be safe.
Gu Wei and Xie Ling are both capable of fighting, so they can easily escape when they encounter danger. Bringing other people along would be a burden.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xingzhi led everyone in front.
Xie Ling took out the makeup tools from the space, made up Gu Wei into a frail young man, and changed herself into a servant's clothes. The two of them walked toward the official road and came in front of the group of soldiers.
