His beloved was the eldest princess of Southern Xinjiang. Later, on the battlefield between Southern Xinjiang and Great Zhou, the eldest princess of Southern Xinjiang died.
The eldest princess disguised herself as a boy as the crown prince from a young age. After her death, Yan Mo took her place, determined to avenge her and bring about the annihilation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and to annex it.
Everything was going according to plan, but from the moment Gu Nian discovered Mei Renjiao, nothing went as he had planned.
On his deathbed, Yan Mo looked at Gu Hui and smiled: "Gu Hui, please pass on a message to Gu Nian: If there is an afterlife, and I remember, the day we met will be her death day!"
After saying that, he used up the last of the poison in his body, killing himself.
It just fell straight down like that.
Peng Ze was still worried, so he cut off his head, wrapped it in a prepared black cloth, and took the body out of Jiufeng Mountain.
Outside Jiufeng Mountain, the soldiers of the Goddess Kingdom watched as Peng Ze dragged a corpse with one hand and carried a severed head with the other, and they all took a few steps back.
"General Ze, Miss Gu, the carriage is ready. It will take four days to get to the royal city from here," said one of Queen Dugu's men.
“Yes. Yan Mo has caused chaos in the Goddess Kingdom and the Great Zhou Dynasty, so let his body be burned here as an apology to the queens of the Goddess Kingdom. I will bring his head back to the Great Zhou Dynasty!” Peng Ze nodded and said.
"Yes, I will send someone to find dry grass right away. But General Ze, I'm afraid the head will become..." The female general from the Goddess Kingdom expressed her concern.
"It's alright, my fiancée knows how to preserve it!" Peng Ze said, turning to look at Gu Hui.
"..." Gu Hui was speechless. Now you know I'm your fiancée?
How to preserve it? Keep it chilled!
The Gu family all know how to make ice.
Peng Ze then stayed behind to watch Yan Mo's body be cremated, while Gu Hui took a carriage to the nearest city to buy the materials needed for making ice.
That night, the two rested in the city. For the past two weeks, they had been chasing Yan Mo and dealing with the various poisons on his body. They were both exhausted.
They took a carrier pigeon from the female general of the Goddess Kingdom, sent a message to Queen Dugu, and then went to sleep.
...
On May 20th, Gu Hui and Yan Mo returned to Kuncheng.
Grandpa Gu held Gu Hui's arm and spun her around several times, his eyes welling up with tears: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back! My Huihui has suffered so much. From now on, Huihui, don't go out anymore, stay in Kuncheng. I've told that Peng's son, if he makes you worry about him again, and if something like this happens again, our family will no longer want him as our son-in-law!"
For Grandpa Gu, Gu Hui was his first grandchild, and their bond was special. It had been more than eight months since Gu Hui left home. Although she returned once, she left again after only a few days. He was worried about her every single day.
Gu Hui smiled and nodded: "Yes, granddaughter will listen to grandpa!"
Grandpa Gu was satisfied and instructed the kitchen to prepare Gu Hui's favorite dishes for the next few days. He also asked Gu Shouxin to personally go to Madam Peng to ask Gu Hui for leave so that his eldest granddaughter could rest for a few more days.
Gu Hui rarely showed a silly smile. Why does Grandpa look a bit like Dad? Oh, no, it should be Dad who looks like Grandpa.
Grandpa was just reserved and didn't show it. Actually, Dad's personality is more like Grandpa's!
This time, the matter of the Goddess Kingdom was completely resolved, and Peng Ze also returned. Gu Hui felt relieved. She figured she might as well rest, and it had been a long time since she had played happily with her sisters at home. There were two more little girls in the family now!
