Lin Xiaoyi quickly ran to Gu Dan, looking him up and down with her beautiful eyes. When she saw the blood that had not yet been wiped off the corners of his mouth, she took out a handkerchief from the sachet and handed it to him.
Gu Dan didn't answer.
Strictly speaking, the relationship between the two should be completely hostile at the moment.
One is the concubine of King Yu, and the other is Mo Qiu's close friend.
One flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix, clinging to King Yu; a martial arts master took action to suppress the imperial army, which was incompatible with water and fire.
No matter in terms of identity or position, the two of them are incompatible.
As for the friendship more than ten years ago?
Gu Dan is not a child, and Lin Xiaoyi is no longer the little girl who can be happy all day long just by buying a bunch of candied haws for a few pennies.
How can we talk about how much true love is still there?
It's just that they left some face to each other in the past.
If you really treat your past friendship as something serious, I'm afraid your bones will be knocked out and your marrow will be sucked out.
The moment Gu Dan heard her voice, he already had thoughts of kidnapping.
If Lin Xiaoyi hadn't come to him and expressed her full kindness, her neck would be in his hands now.
After all, although a martial arts master can gallop through thousands of armies, it is inconvenient for him to bring others with him.
Gu Dan is naturally not afraid of a battle, but Xun Ke, Cang, and Qin Lisheng are still here.
You can't carry one on your back, hold one in your arms, and hold another under your elbows, right?
I'm afraid I have to fight the world with one hand!
"Why are you here?"
After seeing Lin Xiaoyi, Gu Dan didn't show much emotion on his face and just asked calmly.
Zen Master Fuwu obviously followed King Yu, and King Yu was also the tacitly acknowledged next prince. I don’t know how many people had secretly joined him.
Emperor Zongming is dead, but the Dayue Dynasty does not mean that it will fall apart in an instant.
In a short period of time, King Yu, the new emperor, will become another big mountain weighing on the people.
Mo Qiu, who killed Emperor Zongming, was bound to face the new emperor's liquidation. This was a matter of course.
As a close friend of Mo Qiu, the court would certainly not reason with him. These forbidden soldiers invited him to the Heavenly Prison. Could it be that they were inviting him to drink tea?
It was unwise for Lin Xiaoyi to run in front of him when she was already at odds with Prince Yu's Mansion.
"I"
Seeing the indifferent look on Gu Dan's face, Lin Xiaoyi silently took back the handkerchief and said: "A soldier came to Prince Yu's Mansion to summon Zen Master Fuwu, saying that the imperial army surrounded a martial arts master and that he was in urgent need of expert help. I'm curious. After asking around, I heard that the place where the battle took place was your place."
Her plump red lips pursed slightly, and Lin Xiaoyi smiled bitterly and continued: "Master Fuwu's speed was so fast that even if I got on the fastest carriage, I still couldn't catch up. I just didn't expect that what they said A martial arts master is actually you."
Their eyes met, looking at each other speechlessly.
The passage of time seems slow, but it moves forward unswervingly.
Over the past ten years, the two of them have changed a lot, and perhaps it is even difficult for them to understand what happened to each other.
The only thing that connects the two of them is the thin and simple emotion from more than ten years ago, but it cannot be said to be very mellow.
The situation at this point can no longer be explained clearly in a few words.
"What's going on? Why has this place become like this? Why are there forbidden troops surrounding them? Where are the Gudan people?"
In silence, another extremely familiar voice sounded.
Not far away, Xu Zhian, supported by two soldiers, came here with a medicine box.
It's better to say that it's a support than a support.
Gu Dan's face suddenly became solemn, and his eyes were filled with anger.
Okay, now even the other arm is occupied, leaving only two legs for running.
Noticing Gu Dan's expression, Lin Xiaoyi quickly explained: "I'm afraid that I arrived late and I was captured and injured again. I haven't practiced medical skills for more than ten years, and I'm afraid that I can't master it well. , just send someone to invite Uncle Xu, Uncle Xu, you must be relieved."
She said so.
Gu Dan took a deep breath and said coldly: "You'd better be!"
"I"
Lin Xiaoyi's face was full of grievance, she bit her red lips lightly, and said in a very low voice: "I didn't know you were a martial arts master."
The coldness on his face faded a little, Gu Dan let out a breath, ignored her, and hurried towards where Xu Zhian was.
When the two soldiers saw Gu Dan, they couldn't help but tighten their swords at their waists.
But Lin Xiaoyi shook her head vigorously and ordered them to let go and stop.
"Uncle Xu!"
After pulling Xu Zhian to his side, Gu Dan finally felt relieved.
For more than ten years, Xu Zhian has been taking care of him as his junior, and he naturally regards Xu Zhian as his elder.
If something unexpected happens to Xu Zhian, will King Yu still want to ascend the throne? His ashes were raised!
Xu Zhian grabbed Gu Dan's exposed arm and searched it carefully with his old eyes. After seeing that there was no obvious injury, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked quickly: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Although it is still unclear what exactly happened, the disappearance of a section of Gu Dan’s sleeve robe was real. Coupled with the fallen Imperial Army soldiers on the ground and the large pit in front of the small courtyard, no matter how slow he was, I also know that something great has happened.
Xu Zhian stretched out his sleeves and wiped the blood from the corner of Gu Dan's mouth, and asked distressedly: "Why is there blood?"
"Uncle Xu doesn't have to worry about a small matter."
There were so many things that were difficult to explain, so Gu Dan led Xu Zhian around the big pit in front of the courtyard and walked into the small courtyard.
Lin Xiaoyi also followed in again.
"How did you guys get to the point where you were at war with each other?"
As the saying goes, people become better with age. Although no one said anything, Xu Zhian still felt the strange atmosphere between Gu Dan and Lin Xiaoyi, and his brows couldn't help but frown.
Back then, he had tried his best to bring these two people together. Dr. Lin was still alive at that time, and everything in the hospital was stable.
It seemed that just for a moment, everything changed unconsciously.
"Let's talk!"
Looking at Gu Dan with beautiful eyes, Lin Xiaoyi said sincerely.
"What do you want to talk to me about? How can we kill King Yu?"
Gu Dan still didn't give her a good look, and now she didn't even have the chance to suppress the imperial army with one hand.
Qin Lisheng quietly picked up a broken stone lock and stood behind Lin Xiaoyi, looking ready to make a move.
Just one look from Gu Dan could send her to the west.
"Don't say such angry words."
Lin Xiaoyi shook his head slightly, turning a blind eye to Qin Lisheng behind him, and said seriously: "Although some misunderstandings occurred, it did not cause any damage, right? There is still a chance to talk."
As she said that, she looked at the people in the courtyard and found that none of them had suffered any damage.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Dan asked, "How do you want to talk?"
"I hope you will help King Yu ascend the throne. No one wants to offend a martial arts master. As long as you are willing, these forbidden troops will withdraw." Lin Xiaoyi said seriously.
The late emperor is dead and has left a lot of mess, so let's save some trouble for future generations!
After all, Emperor Zongming was killed by Mo Qiu. If King Yu knew that Mo Qiu's best friend was also a martial arts master, he would send people over to try to suppress him because of his brain damage.
Once he lets go, he will most likely end up as the second Emperor Zongming, unless he never leaves the palace for the rest of his life.
If it is reasonable to infer, King Yu is indeed willing to settle the past.
Looking at the four people in the courtyard, Gu Dan said: "It's not impossible, but I have three conditions."
"you say."
Lin Xiaoyi looked happy, if we could discuss it, everything would be easy to discuss.
"First, Emperor Zongming was killed by Mo Qiu, so Mo Qiu should not be blamed harshly. The new emperor has ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world. I hope Mo Qiu will not be held accountable."
"Secondly, Gong Shangguo is still in the prison. He must be released."
"Third, I hope to see the immortal books that Emperor Zong Ming has been pursuing for more than twenty years."
