Chapter 65 Seal
Over the years, she raised a child alone and brought him up safely, which must have been very difficult for her.
If he hadn't come back too late.
Presumably, she would not have married casually, and her situation would not have been so difficult.
After all, I am the one who let her down.
Thinking of this, Chen Hechuan didn't care about anything else and waved his hand to let Dizhi go.
I wanted to find some good things for Gu Jingchun and send them to her.
Dizhi paused for a moment before saying, "Your Highness, regarding the defense map..."
"No problem."
Shen Hechuan said casually.
"That's just a piece of waste paper. Even if Da Qi takes it, it won't be of any use."
That night.
In the side courtyard of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
An agile figure flew down from the top of the wall and slowly landed in the yard.
He landed on his toes lightly and without making any sound.
However, the moment he landed, a sharp arrow suddenly flew through the air.
Chen Hechuan dodged by rolling over, and then he was shot with sharp arrows one after another.
At the same time, other mechanisms continued to emerge from other corners of the courtyard, making it difficult for people to keep up.
This forced Shen Hechuan to draw his sword, and after a few moves, he barely dodged it.
Seeing that all the mechanisms had stopped moving, Shen Hechuan was about to breathe a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, a long sword stabbed towards him.
He immediately flew back and blocked it with his sword, thus barely avoiding it.
When he looked again, he saw a face that looked vaguely familiar.
He frowned slightly, but saw the person opposite him pause, immediately took a step back and exclaimed.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!!!"
After one stick of incense.
In the main hall.
Gu Jingchun hastily put on some clothes, with her hair loose and yawning, she appeared in front of Shen Hechuan.
Chen Hechuan originally had a cold face and was full of anger.
He felt sorry for Gu Jingchun's hard work today and wanted to see her quietly and give her some fun things.
I didn't expect that I would almost lose my life just after entering this yard.
It’s also thanks to the little girl I saw next to Gu Jinxi before.
Otherwise, we will have to fight... for a while longer.
He sat here for the time it took to stick up an incense stick, and his mind couldn't help but think of the crossbows that Gu Jinxi had given him.
At that time, he said that this thing was improved by his mother, and he was still skeptical. Now seeing the mechanisms all over the yard, he had to believe it.
It seems that she has really changed a lot in the five years since they were apart.
As Shen Hechuan was thinking this, he saw Gu Jingchun walking in slowly with his hair loose.
She must have been called over in her sleep.
He is still squinting his eyes and yawning, looking obviously not fully awake.
But when Shen Hechuan saw it, he was stunned.
All the anger and dissatisfaction in my mind disappeared in an instant.
After many years, he was caught off guard to see her so lazy and casual again.
Just like before, after making love, she lay on his chest contentedly, like a lazy cat.
Occasionally when he pulled her up, she looked like this.
It's so beautiful that it melts one's heart.
Just as Shen Hechuan was stunned, Gu Jingchun had already walked in front of him.
"Your Highness, I wonder what brings you here so late at night?"
Chen Hechuan withdrew his thoughts and placed the arrow in his hand on the table beside him.
"I didn't know that your courtyard had such a sophisticated system. It's even as sophisticated as the palace!"
Gu Jingchun yawned again when he heard that and replied indifferently.
"What's so strange about that?"
"How can a young and beautiful widow, who is alone with a young child, sleep peacefully without some means of self-defense?"
Gu Jingchun chuckled as he spoke.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is so high and mighty, how could he possibly understand the difficulties we women face in this world?"
"Sometimes, this little mechanism protects not only your own reputation, but also your life and the life of your children."
Upon hearing this, Shen Hechuan was shocked and stood up suddenly.
No wonder!
No wonder she improved the crossbow!
No wonder there are agencies in her courtyard.
He couldn't imagine how much suffering she had endured over the years.
That's why such a weak girl was able to modify the crossbow to suit herself.
He looked at Gu Jingchun's frail body, feeling a surge of emotion in his heart, and his hands hanging on both sides kept tightening.
After a moment, he sighed and spoke slowly.
"I'm sorry. It's my fault."
Chen Hechuan was full of guilt, and his eyes were full of pity when he looked at Gu Jingchun.
If he had been able to go back sooner, or send a few more people to protect her in secret, the outcome would probably have been different.
When he first arrived at the military camp, he was caught in a tough battle.
During this period, he also wrote several letters to Gu Jingchun, but they never fell into the sea.
Later, the battle became stalemate and they were almost in danger. The staff around him kept urging him to leave first.
And whenever he thought about the fact that if he left, the village where she lived would become the victims of the enemy's sword, he persisted and did not leave.
At that time, he was still angry because Gu Jingchun easily proposed separation.
If, if he had known that his departure would make it so difficult for her, he would definitely try his best to go back.
Chen Hechuan felt remorseful and could not help but step forward and hold Gu Jingchun in his arms.
"It was my fault."
"I misunderstood you."
Gu Jingchun's face was full of question marks.
What's wrong with this guy?
He actually apologized to her?
Just when Gu Jingchun was puzzled, Chen Hechuan took out an exquisite box from his arms.
"This is……"
Gu Jingchun was puzzled.
Chen Hechuan opened the box and handed a stack of banknotes to Gu Jingchun.
"This is the money I've saved over the years. Since you've just arrived in Tiandu, you must have a lot of money to spend, so I brought it all here so you can use it easily."
Gu Jingchun looked at the thick stack of silver notes with a face value of ten thousand taels in his hand in shock. His eyes widened a little, and the remaining sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
"Give me all of this?"
"Um."
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"I originally wanted to give you some gold and silver jewelry, but then I thought that the things in the palace might not be convenient for you to wear. It would be better to just give you silver and buy something suitable for you."
"and……"
As Chen Hechuan spoke, he handed a rectangular jade pendant from the box to Gu Jingchun.
"And this."
"This is my seal. With it, you can go anywhere in Tiandu. You can also mobilize my private soldiers. In critical moments, I can ensure the safety of you and your child."
Gu Jingchun took the jade pendant and took a closer look at it. It would be a lie to say he wasn't shocked.
She was still worried about how to leave Tiandu smoothly after faking her death.
After all, Tiandu is under strict control, and if you want to leave the city secretly, you will definitely need some tricks.
Now that she has this seal, her actions will be much easier.
