Chapter 159 Breaking into the Palace at Night
"You say so, he has a general in mind! But it's normal for a scholar to read those books. I read them often too. Maybe your husband and I are quite similar."
"Yeah?"
Chang Xixi drank another bowl of wine in her hand and muttered softly, "How can this person be so shameless?" She knew that he was talking about her, but she didn't know how to restrain herself.
As we drank, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
She stood up and said goodbye, saying to Gu Rongyu: "Let's drink this wine. From now on, when we meet, don't tell me that I know you, okay? It's embarrassing."
Gu Rongyu looked up at Chang Xixi. This woman not only refused to acknowledge him, but also belittled him! Woohoo. All he could do was cry.
Sad as he was, he still wanted to talk to Chang Xixi, and whispered, "Can we drink again next time? The kind where we drink and drink and drink?"
By the way, let him take advantage of it.
Chang Xixi knew what he was thinking and refused directly, "Of course you can. You are a great general! And what am I? I am just a commoner! I still have to rely on you. In the future, we need to meet more often... so that everyone knows that I am special to you. So that I won't be bullied by others."
She has a good plan.
Of course Gu Rongyu allowed her to have this little flaw, and he also liked the feeling of Chang Xixi, who knew what she was like but refused to admit it.
"Okay, but you have to drink with me until dawn."
Chang Xixi thought about it and realized that she still had a little baby at home. If she didn't go back quickly, Xiaohong would definitely not be able to take her with her. "That won't work. Even if we're drinking in this tavern with so many people around, I still value my reputation. It's almost closing time, so let's say goodbye."
She stood up, saluted Gu Rongyu, got into her carriage and drove away.
Gu Rongyu was a little anxious. After talking for so long and drinking so much wine, the person still ran away without even saying goodbye in the end.
Looking at the carriage in the distance, his heart began to suffer. Three years of longing burst out at this moment, and then slowly poured into his body and mind, and nourished him. Those non-existent lust and emotions, and the suppressed love, were all exiled at this moment.
He wanted to hold her in his arms at night, wanted to be with her, wanted more, wanted her to tell him that she missed him, the kind of longing that only she could have with him.
Let her tell everything!
Everything! I can't take it anymore. These emotions are surging in my chest, about to break. No, they're already breaking.
Qingnan looked at his young master's handsome face, which was dark and unclear, and his eyes were bright and dim at times. He always felt that he was thinking about something terrible.
Chang Xixi returned to her room in the palace and had the candles lit. The child was waiting for her.
Because, today in the palace, she had already admitted that she had a child, so there was no need for her to hide it anymore. So, she took the child to live in the palace. The child was waiting for Chang Xixi to come back, and he stretched out his little hands, asking Chang Xixi to hold him. She just held the child and coaxed him to sleep.
Chang Xixi was extremely tired that day. After washing up, she extinguished the candles and lay on the bed with her eyes closed. Just then, she heard some movement in the room.
I went to check quietly and saw a familiar figure!
She said, "Who is it? I don't know. Is this the imperial palace? Trespassing is punishable by death. Besides, my guards are no ordinary people. How did you get in?"
"My wife."
Gu Rongyu just broke the jar and threw it all away! All kinds of hints and explicit statements didn't work, so she might as well tell her directly. Maybe Chang Xixi would forgive her. If that didn't work, she would kneel here for a few days.
He had already sent Qingnan to spread the word that the general had fallen in love with Chang Xixi at first sight at the palace banquet and wanted to marry her. Word of this had already begun to spread throughout the streets and alleys. He was also at ease, waiting to inspect the results tomorrow.
"Oh, who is your wife? You might have recognized the wrong person. Before I call anyone, go back to where you came from! Don't stay here and disturb my rest. I've dealt with enough people today, and I don't have the energy to deal with you now."
After saying that, Chang Xixi turned sideways, closed her eyes, and prepared to go to sleep.
Gu Rongyu lit the lights in the room and whispered, "My lady, it's me! I'm Gu Rongyu. In Wanfu Village, you wanted to marry me to help me. We couldn't stand the gossip from the villagers, so we got married. Have you forgotten?"
As he spoke, he lifted the curtain and was about to go in.
Chang Xixi was unmoved. How could she not know who the man behind her was? She just didn't want to face him. Three years! Three years! She faked her death for three years, and now she has become a general in one move. Is he going to get close to her? Haha, it's not that easy.
She stood up, sat up, looked at the person who came, wrapped the quilt around herself and said, "General, I am going to molest you. The one you are talking about is my husband, not a general. He is just a poor scholar who can't bear the consequences. What you said... His ambition is to pass the imperial examination, not to become a military commander."
Chang Xixi said this on purpose in order to provoke Gu Rongyu and force him to tell the truth.
If we were to meet tonight, but he still had so many secrets in his heart, what would I do if neither of us opened up to each other? What if he pulled the same old trick again and left? Would I cry with my child?
As she thought about this, she felt that she must make Gu Rongyu make everything clear tonight.
Therefore, deliberately making things difficult.
Before coming here, Gu Rongyu had thought it through. This matter must be explained. If he couldn't explain it, his wife would be gone. So, he had to tell her.
So, he pressed Chang Xixi's sleeping point, letting her sleep for three hours, and he also went to sleep with his clothes on.
Three hours later, it was three quarters past three in the morning, and Chang Xixi arrived.
At the same time, Gu Rongyu also opened his eyes. He looked at Chang Xixi and said, "My lady, I know you have many questions in your mind. Let's resolve them all today. If not... our flirting will be known to others sooner or later. At least it can't be hidden from Master Lu and Master Zhang."
"Um."
Chang Xixi slept for a while, and her mind became clear. The wine she drank at that stall before was fruit wine, and it was mixed with a lot of water, so she couldn't get drunk at all.
Moreover, she is possessed by the spiritual spring, so it doesn't matter if she gets drunk.
He sat up, put on his clothes and walked out the door, asking Liang Ming, who was on guard, to boil a pot of water, as they wanted to talk.
