Chapter 79: Half-progressed as in the previous life

Chapter 79: Half-progressed as in the previous life

Gu Yuqi stayed motionless for a long time, and it was not until the early morning that she suddenly stood up, lit the oil lamp in the room, and looked at herself in the mirror.

Fingers brushed the lips that had been ravaged by Yun Ke. There was still his faint blood on the corners of her lips, which made Gu Yuqi want to vomit, but she couldn't. That feeling made her face even paler. The hair became very messy between the two people's pulling, Gu Yuqi subconsciously picked up the comb on the table and combed her long knotted hair for herself.

Scenes from the past. Replayed in my mind again. In a trance, she seemed to have returned to the Wuchen Palace. The so-called Wuchen Palace was the cold palace that had imprisoned her. There was almost nothing in the palace except a bed and a small bronze mirror that she brought in with her. It is very cold in winter. She and Rouge only have a thin quilt, and the tires are already hardened, so they can't resist the cold winter in Beijing. Quilt, Rao is like this, it's still cold and can't sleep.

Rouge is not like her, she has practiced some martial arts, she is thin and coughs constantly in winter. But for fear of disturbing her, she had been holding back. Their daily meals are nothing but cold things, sometimes they have it, sometimes they don't. At that time, in order to make Rouge live a little better, she could only set up a cover in the yard by herself to catch birds. She also stole the fish in the pond of Wuchen Palace. Without the charcoal, she could only go to secretly demolish other palaces. Burn the windows inside the house. At that time, she tried every means to make Rouge's body a little better, so that she would not be lonely, and she also worked hard to keep herself busy as much as possible, so that she would temporarily forget Yun Ke.

Once she was caught stealing fish by a steward eunuch, and sued Zhang Wanyi. Zhang Wanyi came. As a noble concubine, she appeared in front of her with all manners. Her appearance is still beautiful, her figure is still slender and graceful, but what about her? His face was yellow and his muscles were thin, and his jet-black hair had become dull. Zhang Wanyi was wearing a long dress made of high-quality lake silk, embroidered with gorgeous and luxurious peonies with gold and silver threads.

She stood in front of her, looking down at a lowly mortal girl like a nine-day mysterious girl, which made her suddenly want to laugh. Zhang Wanyi is really not suitable for such a dress. She is beautiful, but she is a little more exaggerated, and she lacks her own beauty like a clear water hibiscus.

But she is a noble concubine, and she is just a talented person who is punished and sent to the cold palace.

Zhang Wanyi wanted to punish her according to the palace rules, but Rouge stepped forward and angrily rebuked the palace servants for neglecting her. This silly girl was dedicated to defending her, but she didn't know that Zhang Wanyi had ordered it.

Zhang Wanyi wanted to torture her, let the hard life wear off her beauty, her talent, and everything about her.

Rouge was slapped for 20 years for contradicting Zhang Wanyi. The **** in Zhang Wanyi's palace really hit that ruthless hand. Rouge knocked out two of Rouge's front teeth, her face was covered in blood, and her cheeks were completely deformed.

At that time, she was angry, and while the guards who were holding her were not paying attention, she kicked Zhang Wanyi's stomach with a flying foot, and then flew on her body, hitting Zhang Wanyi with her fists like raindrops. She knocked down Zhang Wanyi's phoenix hairpin, tore Zhang Wanyi's shirt, and even wanted to scratch Zhang Wanyi's face like a shrew, but when she slammed all her resentment on Zhang Wanyi, her hand was tightly held by someone the pull.

She looked back and saw Yun Ke's eyes that were as ruthless and cold as ice and snow, and his eyes were full of anger.

"Thanks to Wan Yi still interceding for you in front of me, saying that you have a bad life here, I beg you to come and see you, is that how you treat someone who sympathizes with you? Do you still have the heart!" Words overflowed from Yun Ke's lips one by one, and he pushed her hard, pushing her to the ground.

At that time, she panicked for a moment, and then suddenly realized that she had fallen into Zhang Wanyi's plan again.

Zhang Wanyi deliberately angered her. She knew that rouge was her weakness. She had already sent someone to invite Yun Ke. The scene just now was just to anger her on purpose and drive her crazy. According to Zhang Wanyi's character, how could the guards who guarded him be so careless? Besides, she had punched Zhang Wanyi so many times just now, and there were so many palace maids, eunuchs and guards present, how could no one stop her?

They all colluded in advance, waiting for Yun Ke to see this scene for a long time.

Gu Yuqi was anxious, she knelt down and crawled over and hugged Yun Ke's leg, "Your Majesty, it's not what you saw..." Unfortunately, before she could finish her words, she was kicked away by Yun Ke, and she was kicked over. On the ground, he watched in amazement as he helped Zhang Wanyi as if he was protecting a treasure, and personally arranged her hair and clothes, and asked her gently, where was the injury...

At that time, Gu Yuqi felt that she was really stupid.

It was at that time that Gu Yuqi completely gave up on Yun Ke.

Why doesn't he always listen to his own explanations... why? Could it be that everything Zhang Wanyi did was right and she was wrong? She is really stupid, thinking that the time-travelling girl is like a golden finger, thinking that she has beauty and the advantage of being a transmigrator, so she can completely occupy that man's heart. But the woman's intrigue.

Her whole-hearted effort was not worth the woman's slight frown and a soft sigh of pain.

The comb pulled her hair, and there was a burst of pain, which instantly pulled Gu Yuqi's thoughts back. She stared blankly at the bronze mirror, and the person in the mirror was already bursting with tears.

Gu Yuqi hurriedly wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and bent the corner of her mouth in the mirror, trying to squeeze out a smile, but found that laughter can actually be worse than crying.

His eyes were swollen, his lips were swollen, and his face was frighteningly white. Now she looks like she can't see people during the day. If she goes out like this and is seen by her mother, she will definitely be worried and ask questions. She doesn't want Liang Huaiyu to know what happened between her and Yun Ke.

Instead of doing it, Gu Yuqi slipped out of the room while it was still dark, picked up a bucket of water, gritted her teeth, poured it from her head to her feet, and then walked back and forth on the ground with her bare feet for several times, feeling When it was cold from the inside to the outside, she slipped back to her room while no one was there.

Quickly changing out of wet clothes, she wiped her long hair with a dry cloth, and then lay down on the bed.

Gu Yuqi thought that her current physique would make it difficult to get sick. After all, it has been four years since she was ten years old, and she was so healthy that she never got sick once.

Fortunately, she was so vigorously tossing, when the sky was slightly bright, she felt a little sickness, and the cold air was radiating from the inside, but the temperature on the skin continued to rise. She tossed herself into a fever.

When Rouge came in in the morning, what she saw was Gu Yuqi shivering while wrapped in a quilt.

She was shocked and hurriedly called Liang Huaiyu. Gu Yuqi's pitiful appearance frightened Liang Huaiyu to death again. There was a plague outside. Seeing Gu Yuqi's appearance... She couldn't even think about it, although Gu Yuqi He assured her that there is a way to cure the plague, but the wound doesn't hurt on others, but when it's her daughter's turn to fall ill, there's nothing to worry about as a mother.

Gu Yuqi's various comforts and explanations made Liang Huaiyu believe that she just had a cold and fever. Liang Huaiyu comforted her mouth, but she was scared to death in her heart.

Liang Huaiyu was still worried and called Chun Xing through the door and asked her to invite the doctor over, but the doctors in the city were already busy kicking their heels, and it took a long time to invite a doctor. He refused to go in again, and the doctor was afraid of death.

After struggling like this for a long time, the doctor looked at Gu Yuqi through the door, and only then did he determine that Gu Yuqi was just suffering from the cold, and Liang Huaiyu was completely relieved now.

Gu Yuqi fell asleep after taking the medicine, she was sick. Naturally, there is no need to serve Yun Ke. That's fine. Originally, Gu Yuqi didn't know how to face Yun Ke again. Now, at this embarrassing time, it's better not to see each other than to meet each other.

Hearing that Gu Yuqi was ill, Yun Ke's brows furrowed. She was still alive and kicking last night. He really wanted to take a look, but because of his identity, he still held back, he expected that the woman was pretending to be sick to get rid of him, and this realization made him very unhappy.

Gu Yuqi's illness has been on and off for six days, and she has lost a lot of weight. It's not that the doctor's medicine is useless, but that Gu Yuqi doesn't want her to get better so quickly.

The situation outside was the same as in the previous life. In six days, many people died in Jiangxia City. Refugees started rioting, smashing shops, and looting food and medicinal materials. After catching the rioting refugees, the bustling Jiangxia City was now a mess, and many refugees had escaped from other places, so the city gate had to be closed again. Even Yun Qing felt a little overwhelmed.

The situation in the capital is not much better. The usually luxurious and arrogant nobles are now beginning to panic all day long. The price of food is soaring as if it were blowing. However, there are still many shops that are not willing to sell more food. If it goes up a little, they can earn more money. Compared with their greed, the two shops and one medicine shop under the name of Gu Yuqi are very prominent. Although they have also increased their prices, they are already better than other shops. It is much lower, and the supply is sufficient. As long as someone buys, they will never hold back the goods and not sell, so their reputation is growing day by day.

Because the actions of Gu Yuqi's shop have also stabilized the prices of the capital to a certain extent, which has also attracted the attention of the court. After all, in the face of disaster, it is already a conscientious merchant who can do this.

Prince Yunxuan has been criticized by Emperor Jing because of the plagues and floods everywhere, and the soaring rice prices in the capital have made some noble families a little overwhelmed. Logically speaking, they all have fields in their homes, but this year the plague is rampant, The floods flooded and the gates of the city were closed, and the contents of the farms could not be transported out. First, they were afraid of being robbed. Second, they could not enter the city when they reached the capital, so some of them had to spend real money to buy food. Those **** merchants still have rare goods, and they are hoarding food to rise, which makes them complaining, and even complaining to His Royal Highness the Prince, complaining that his supervision is not good. In order to restore a little reputation, Yunxuan had to condescend to summon several big rice merchants in the capital, and asked them to open warehouses to sell grain, rather than asking for it.

Seeing the opportunity, the rice merchants made various demands one after another, but Yun Xuan could only listen one by one with a dark face. Compared with these profiteers, those shopkeepers who promised to fully support His Royal Highness, instead of asking for His Highness, won the Prince's appreciation. Those shopkeepers were all from Gu Yuqi's shop. In other words, Gu Yuqi's shop has successfully caught the eyes of the prince.

Yun Yi was very happy when he saw that Yun Xuan was in such a dreadful state. He was not idle, and tried hard to find a prescription, because he knew that at this time, anyone who could come up with a prescription for the plague would be a miracle. pieces. He invited the name of the capital to the palace to study it day and night.

The news that Yun Ke was infected with the plague came back to the capital, and Yun Yi could only look up at the sky and sigh. This person is afraid that he will not survive. It is a pity that he has been cultivating Yun Ke for so many years. Just waiting for him to make contributions to disaster relief, Yun Yi asked Concubine De to give Emperor Jing another blow and mention his position.

Concubine De is virtuous and virtuous. Naturally, she can't fight for her son in front of Emperor Jing, but it is different for Yun Ke. Yun Ke's mother is dead and she raised her. In the eyes of outsiders, she is right Yun Ke was better than treating his own son, and even Emperor Jing appreciated her actions.

Therefore, once Yun Ke's disaster relief task was successfully completed, Concubine De had an excuse to mention Yun Ke again in front of Emperor Jing.

It's a pity that Yun Ke is now trapped in Jiangxia City. There are many evils. Even Concubine De feels very unlucky. He has put so much effort into Yun Ke's business for many years. . So she has set her eyes on Zhang Wanyi.

Zhang Wanyi is the daughter of the Prime Minister, and Prime Minister Zhang has no right to say that she can compete with His Royal Highness in court. Yun Ke's line was broken, if Yun Yi could marry Zhang Wanyi, it would be equivalent to capturing Prime Minister Zhang.

All kinds of things in the capital are going on silently as in the previous life, but Gu Yuqi is missing, something is missing, but the big trend is still advancing as usual.

In the suburbs north of Jiangxia City, corpses are burned every day. Those are people who died of the disease. Every evening, the smell of burnt corpses will blow into Jiangxia City with the night wind, and the city will be enveloped by a A deadly breath.

Zhang Wanyi really couldn't come up with a recipe in this life.

A few days later, Yun Ke stood at the window and looked at the thick smoke rising from the north of the city. In the last life, it was really Gu Yuqi who had been looking for a recipe to save her without sleepless nights! The dark guard found the ancient book according to what Gu Yuqi said, and the contents recorded on it are exactly the same as what Gu Yuqi said. Zhuang liver is madly carrying it.

She really didn't lie to herself, but she was self-willed in the last life, and she had already sentenced Gu Yuqi to death, so she regarded all her words as unreasonable.

His hand suddenly pressed against the edge of the window, his fingers were deeply clasped on the wood of the edge of the window, and the knuckles of the force were turning white.

He was really wrong. For so many years, what he had always believed in had completely collapsed.

It turned out that in the last life, Gu Yuqi not only kept saying that she loved him, but also did the same. It's just that he was blinded by too many things, and he didn't realize that he really cared about himself, and the people who loved him were by his side.

His heart was aching, and the absolutely tragic gaze she had before her death appeared in front of his eyes. It was how much resentment, how much hatred, and how much unwillingness could be gathered into such a look. So in this life, she will hide from herself, be afraid of herself, and even want to leave herself...

The bottom of his heart seemed to be slashed by someone with a dull knife. The pain was not sharp, but it was addicting to his blood.

It turned out that he also cared about her, but he didn't know... After she died, he would miss her smile, her words, and even her arrogance and arrogance in his heart. The memory was so deep that he thought He hated her because he hated her, not because he cared about her... He missed her for decades, and he didn't even want to let her go even in death. It turned out not to be hatred, but love.

The love he didn't realize...

Yun Ke's body swayed, the pain in his heart made him almost unable to stand, he raised his hand to cover his chest in a daze, through the thin shirt, he could feel his heart beating under his flesh, calm and powerful , but with a trace of disorder, full, rising, it seems that it was filled up by a woman's name, that is Gu Yuqi.

He wanted to see her very much, and immediately, thinking of this, he turned around suddenly, opened the door, and walked out quickly.

The double doors of her room were closed, and only Rouge carried a small stool at the door to do needlework. Before it was completely late, she wanted to embroider the handkerchief in her hand as soon as possible.

Hearing the footsteps, Rouge raised her head, and seeing that it was Yun Ke, she hurriedly stood up and bowed her knees, "My servant, see Your Highness."

Yun Ke waved his hand impatiently, bypassed Rouge and was about to push the door in, but Rouge ran over and held the door tightly, "Your Highness, our young lady is sleeping, it's inappropriate for you to break in like this."

Yun Ke originally wanted to slap the ignorant person away, but he raised his hand and put it down.

This girl is someone Gu Yuqi cherishes. If he touches her, I'm afraid Gu Yuqi will be even more angry and hate her. No, he can't add fuel to the fire now.

"This king has something to see your young lady. You go in and let me know." Yun Ke calmed down and said slowly.

Only then did Rouge put down her nervous hand. It wasn't that she wasn't afraid of the man in front of her. The chilling aura emanating from his whole body made her tremble. He even shot her at Huguo Temple last time. Pushed away, she was in a coma for a long time.

But for Gu Yuqi's sake, she didn't stop Yun Ke. Rouge was a little naive, but not stupid. She followed Gu Yuqi for so many years, and it could be seen that Gu Yuqi hated and feared this man, so there was something she wanted to do. First stand in front of Gu Yuqi.

Yun Ke sees that Rouge is a loyal servant, and also sees that Gu Yuqi doesn't care about Rouge's feelings.

"Your Highness, wait a moment." Rouge pushed open the door and went in, telling Gu Yuqi what happened just now.

"Help me up." Gu Yuqi frowned and sighed silently after listening. After hiding for so many days, what should come will always come. She can't be sick for the rest of her life. Besides, she has been completely ill these two days. Well, she was still stuck in the room and didn't want to go out.

The person you want to see is always there, and Gu Yuqi understands that she cannot escape.
