Chapter 130 I can't sleep
This time we have discussed everything and are finally ready to leave.
Grandfather and three uncles personally escorted Wen Ling and Gu Chenran to the door and got on the carriage.
In fact, Wen Ling had been waiting for her grandfather to ask a question, but she didn't expect that her grandfather never asked it in the end.
Wen Ling sighed. This grandfather's family could really be described as venting their anger.
In the end, it was Wen Ling who spoke first. Before getting on the carriage, she said to her grandfather who was waving at her cheerfully, "Grandfather, your most troublesome and important issue recently may be solved by heading south."
Grandfather was stunned for a moment, then pointed at himself and asked, "Me? The thing that bothers me the most and is the most important to me? What is it?"
Wen Ling smiled, shook her head and said nothing more. She seldom took the initiative to remind people of things, but this time she was already making an exception, and she couldn't say any more.
The main reason was that her grandfather was so good to her. She was really touched by the unreserved love from an elder and always wanted to do more for him.
It was not until Wen Ling got on the carriage and left that the grandfather slapped his head and said, "The most important thing that has troubled me recently... Could it be that the emperor secretly told me about it? Could it be that the man escaped to the south instead of the north?!"
The more my grandfather thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. Otherwise, with Wen Ling's personality, she would not remind him casually, let alone say useless words.
He felt like he had guessed the truth, and immediately called out to his men anxiously: "Quick, quick, call Liu Feng and the others back, and search the south!!"
Sure enough, they called back the people heading north, and after a careful search in the south, they successfully captured the key figure who had escaped.
This man was very smart. When he was escaping, he set off a smoke bomb, making people think he was running to the north, but in fact he was running to the south.
He was smart, but he was not tough. After being caught, he was not tortured and told everything, allowing my grandfather to successfully obtain the evidence and present it to the emperor.
This was something the emperor had been investigating for several years, trying to find evidence, but the officials below protected each other, which made him very unhappy, but he had to keep it to himself because he had no evidence.
The emperor was very pleased after obtaining the evidence, and took this opportunity to invite my grandfather back to the court and resume his position as left prime minister.
I heard that on the day when my grandfather returned to court, the emperor happily walked down from the dragon throne, personally supported my grandfather, said three good words in a row, and held my grandfather's hand tightly.
From this we can see how much the emperor valued his grandfather, and the three uncles who followed him also returned to the court one after another.
The Wang family once left the court, but now they have returned in strength.
Of course, these are all things that happened later. After Wen Ling reminded her grandfather, she followed Gu Chenran home to rest.
Wen Ling was a little sleepy after eating and drinking, and he was yawning in the carriage. After arriving at the palace, he went straight back to the yard to sleep.
After walking a few steps, he found Gu Chenran standing at the intersection without moving. He turned around curiously and asked, "What's wrong? Do you have anything else to do? Why don't you go back to the yard to sleep so late?"
Gu Chenran looked at Wen Ling, feeling a little aggrieved: "I can't sleep."
He now missed the royal hunting trips very much. At least at that time, he could sleep in the same bed with Wen Ling.
Although it was a bed with a low stool in the middle, every time he slept until dawn, the table would always be kicked to the ground and Wen Ling would always wrap around him.
In fact, he would wake up a little earlier than Wen Ling every day. When he woke up, he would not say anything, but would quietly look at Wen Ling's sleeping profile. Of course, when Wen Ling was about to wake up, he would close his eyes and pretend to have just woken up.
The time when he looks at Wen Ling’s sleeping face every morning is the happiest time for him.
But after returning to the palace, Wen Ling went back to her own yard to sleep, without even the slightest bit of reluctance to leave.
Gu Chenran originally thought that he slept quite well, but after sleeping together and then separating, he found it difficult to fall asleep.
So what he said now was not a lie.
"Can't sleep?" Wen Ling felt very strange: "Why can't you sleep? Didn't I give you so many calming talismans? Could it be that the talisman paper is ineffective?"
Gu Chenran felt that he should play it straight, otherwise Wen Ling, who was so thick-skinned, would probably not think of it again.
Gu Chenran considered his words carefully and said, "Actually, I can sleep, but I don't feel as good as when I sleep next to you."
Wen Ling felt even more puzzled: "Then why didn't you sleep well next to me?"
Just as Gu Chenran was about to continue playing straight, Wen Ling suddenly realized that she had thought of it first: "I know!"
Gu Chenran's heart instantly lifted up, and he even felt his ears getting a little hot.
Wen Ling pointed at him and said, "It must be because I'm too powerful, so you feel especially safe when you sleep next to me, so of course you will sleep better next to me!"
Gu Chenran: “…”
I thought she really understood, but it turns out she understood nothing!
Wen Ling looked very considerate and patted his shoulder, "It's okay, you don't have to worry. Now this entire palace is under my absolute rule.
Anything that happens in this palace, no matter how small, will not escape my eyes.
In my absolute domination area, even if there are enemies twice as powerful as me, I will still be able to fight. Moreover, you don’t have enemies twice as powerful as me here. Such people have not yet been born.
So, just put your heart back in your stomach, and go back to have a good rest and sleep, okay? ”
What else could Gu Chenran say? He was inexplicably coaxed by Wen Ling like a child. What else could he say except yes?
After Wen Ling left, Gu Chenran returned to his yard with a depressed look.
Green Sword watched everything that happened, but this time he didn't dare to say anything joking or sarcastic.
Because their prince is really a bit pitiful. Alas, when will his prince be able to realize this simple wish of living on a warm bed with his wife and children?
