The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 479 Beauty Trick (Part 1)

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

The capital city has fallen into a tense and alert state due to successive wars. Yuan Tang has been hiding in the east of the capital for several days, like a mouse crossing the street. He has lived for so many years, and he has never been so embarrassed.

When Gu Jiao told him that his uncle Prince Bo was going to rebel against him, he didn't believe it. After all, his uncle Prince Bo was the most beloved son of the first emperor. When his father was still the crown prince of the Chen Kingdom, he committed a serious crime. It was Prince Bo's uncle who tried his best to rehabilitate his father and help his father keep the crown prince.

How can such a Prince Bo and Uncle make people not trust him?

As for his maternal grandfather's family, the Rong family.

The daughter of the Rong family is also his mother and concubine, the noble concubine of Chen Guogui, under one person, above ten thousand people, waiting to be canonized as queen in the future, and her mother will honor the world.

Uncle Prince Bo and the Rong family are not related by marriage, is the Rong family out of their minds? Instead of helping his own daughter and grandson, instead of helping an outsider?

He felt that Gu Jiao must have made a mistake, or she was maliciously trying to provoke his relationship with Prince Bo and his uncle.

But in the end, he had a mind to make people pay attention to the movement of Zhao Kingdom's royal family. He didn't realize the seriousness of the matter until the emperor ordered someone to arrest him.

He escaped first.

And just a few days after fleeing for their lives, news came from the frontier that Chen Guo's army was suppressing the border, and Zhao Guo lost three cities in a row.

It was also at that moment that he finally understood that Gu Jiao hadn't lied to him, and that his Prince Bo and Uncle had really turned against him!

The emperor is still ordering people to arrest him, probably because he thinks that by arresting him, he can blackmail Chen Guo, but Gu Jiao is right, it is not his father who wants to violate the covenant between the two countries, but his uncle Prince Bo.

So even if he was killed, his uncle would not blink.

It's a dead end for him right now.

I don't know what happened to the father.

If Prince Bo dared to do such a thing, he must have controlled the court, and possibly even put his father under house arrest.

Thinking of this, Yuantang's entire face turned cold.

"Look over there!"

Not far away came the voice of the Imperial Guard.

This kind of situation that may be exposed at any time has already happened countless times, and Yuan Tang has gradually become numb from the initial indignation to the present.

But he did not dare to take it lightly.

Otherwise, once he is caught, his life will be gone. The emperor will not protect him, and Zhaoguo will not let him go.

Yuan Tang dodges and walks through the side alley,

As soon as he came to a street, he was blocked by Liu Yisheng.

Liu Yisheng hired a carriage, he lifted the curtain and said to him: "Come with me!"

Yuan Tang didn't go forward, but looked at Liu Yisheng with a complicated expression. The footsteps behind him gradually approached, and he disappeared into the night without turning his head.

He can't hurt his cousin.

Even if he dies, he must die alone in Zhao Country.

But on the other hand, the news of the frontier fortress losing three cities in a row and the old Hou Ye being arrested spread to the Ding'an Hou Mansion.

"What are you talking about! The old man was arrested at the frontier!"

In the study, Master Gu looked at Huang Zhong in disbelief, "Did you hear me wrong? Didn't the old man go to visit the mountains and play in the water? How could he go to the frontier fortress? That's a place of bitter cold!"

Huang Zhong was at a loss and said: "It's absolutely true, Lord Marquis! The remnants of the previous dynasty colluded with Chen Guo's army in the frontier fortress, and did not hesitate to sell the country to help Chen Guo advance to the frontier fortress. The news that the old man was arrested has spread all over the palace!"

"How could this be?" Master Gu fell on the chair in a daze.

Huang Zhong said worriedly: "The Empress Dowager was furious, and ordered the son to return to Beijing immediately, saying that she wanted...to reorganize the Gu family army, and let the son lead the Gu family army north to fight against the enemy!"

Master Gu's expression changed again: "Is Changqing going to the frontier too? He..."

He is only twenty-one years old!

He has never been to such a distant battlefield, nor has he experienced such a fierce war. One hundred thousand Gu's troops marched north together, this is not going to be a tough battle!

Outside the study, Gu Chengfeng, who accidentally listened to it, felt like falling into an ice cellar.

He knew that his grandfather had gone to the frontier in secret under the orders of the emperor, but he never expected that instead of saving Princess Ning'an, his grandfather would put himself in it instead.

He didn't know who the remnants of the previous dynasty belonged to, but referring to Concubine Jing, he could roughly infer that the other party was cruel and merciless, and that his grandfather would be in danger if he fell into the hands of those people.

The eldest brother is far away near Fengdu Mountain, it will take time to return to the capital, and it will take time to revive the Gu family army, and then go north to the frontier fortress, I don't know if my grandfather will survive until the eldest brother...

Grandfather would not let himself be a bargaining chip to hold back elder brother and Gu Jiajun.

If the remnants of the previous dynasty used him to blackmail eldest brother, grandfather would rather die than surrender!

Gu Chengfeng returned to his yard.

He took out the night clothes and changed into them, took the mask and put it on, and picked out a few hidden weapons bought by Qianji Pavilion.

After finishing this, he went to the next room.

At this time, Gu Chenglin had rested, and Gu Chengfeng came to the bedside, looked at Gu Chenglin who was sleeping soundly, tucked him in the corner of the quilt, touched his hair that had grown a little, and took out the banknotes on his body and stuffed it on his pillow Down.

"In the future, you have to buy hair restorer yourself."

After all, he reluctantly took a last look at his younger brother. At this moment, he was envious of Gu Yan and the newborn little guy. At least those two were hurt by so many people, and he was the only one left in Gu Chenglin.

But now even he is leaving.

This time, he is not simply doing the task, he is going to go to the frontier, sneak into the enemy camp, his life and death are unknown, if he does not come back——

"If I can't come back, you will take care of yourself in the future, understand?"

Gu Chenglin, who was sleeping soundly, knew nothing about his brother's departure. He turned over and looked peaceful and stable in his sleep.

Gu Chengfeng finally left.

He gently closed the door for his younger brother, went to the stable and secretly rode his father's bloody BMW.

Bishui Hutong.

After a busy day, the family went back to their houses to rest.

Gu Jiao went to the east room to take a look at the little guy, the newborn jaundice of the little guy has subsided, and the creases on his face have gradually smoothed out, he is a white and tender little guy.

"Jiaojiao." Xiao Jingkong appeared behind her with a pillow in his arms.

"Are you still asleep?" Gu Jiao looked back at him.

"Well, I kind of miss you." Xiao Jingkong said seriously.

Gu Jiao bent her lips and moved her little head: "I'll take you there."

"Hmm!" Xiao Jingkong hugged his small pillow with one hand, took Gu Jiao's hand with the other, and went to the next door in a bouncing manner.

He lay on the soft bed, opened his big round eyes, and said obediently, "Jiaojiao."

"Um?"

"I've got the quilt covered."

"So good." Gu Jiao touched his forehead, "Go to sleep."

Xiao Jingkong obediently closed his eyes.

After a while, it opened again: "Jiaojiao?"

"I am here."

He closed his eyes again in peace.

Grabbing Gu Jiao's hand with her little hand, she made no secret of her dependence and need.

Gu Jiao guarded him until he fell asleep and snored evenly, then she got up from the small passage and went back to the backyard.

She went to Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun's house, and the two little men had already fallen asleep. Gu Yan's sleeping appearance was very good, maybe it was because she was always bullied by her sister in the womb, and Gu Xiaoshun's sleeping phase was a bit different, half a bed. The legs were hanging off the bed.

Gu Jiao stuffed Gu Xiaoshun's legs into the quilt, and touched their foreheads.

Among the children, Gu Xiaoshun is the most worry-free, and Gu Yan is the most worry-free.

Gu Yan's heart disease has always been a difficult problem that Gu Jiao wants to solve, but the operation conditions of the small medicine box just cannot be met.

Gu Jiao opened the bedside table and put the anti-heart failure medicine in it.

After doing this, she went back to the Westinghouse and found some clean clothes.

"what?"

She rummaged through boxes and cabinets, showing a puzzled look.

"Looking for this?"

Xiao Heng's voice suddenly appeared at the door.

Gu Jiao turned her head and saw Xiao Heng walking towards her holding a mask inlaid with peacock feathers.

She blinked, shook the pot and said, "It's clear!"

Xiao Heng smiled, a little helpless, but also a little bit uncontrollable, he didn't expose her, but opened the door of the cabinet, and took out a bundle from inside.

"Here is dried meat and some dry food."

In the past, she was the one who packed things for him, but this time it was also him who sent her on a long journey.

"You..." Gu Jiao opened her mouth and looked at him.

"Aren't you going out of Beijing?" Xiao Heng asked nonchalantly, and took a few more things for her.

Well, I thought I hid it well.

"Are you going to leave without saying goodbye?"

Gu Jiao shook her head like a rattle: "I wrote you a letter, and it's in your study."

Xiao Heng looked pale, handed her the burden, and stared at her deeply: "Are you coming back?"

This question is a bit intriguing.

If she is the real Gu Jiaoniang, it is impossible not to come back.

Gu Jiao always thought that only Gu Chengfeng firmly believed that she was not the real Gu Jiaoniang.

But Gu Chengfeng would think so, most likely because she thought that she killed the real Gu Jiaoniang and replaced Gu Jiaoniang with another person.

However, Xiao Heng clearly understood that this body belonged to Gu Jiaoniang.

So why did he ask this question?

As if he could see the doubt in Gu Jiao's eyes, and also felt that if he didn't say something today, he might not have the courage to say it in the future, he said, "Since you fell into the water two years ago, you have become very different. I know you It is Gu Jiaoniang, but sometimes I feel that you are not Gu Jiaoniang."

She is not, but she is also.

This is really a very contradictory topic.

"come back?"

he asked her again.

Gu Jiao paused, looked at him and said, "Whether I am Gu Jiaoniang or not?"

Xiao Heng nodded seriously: "Well, it doesn't matter if you are Gu Jiaoniang or not."

"of course--"

Gu Jiao rolled her eyes, swallowed the words, raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm back, can I watch you take a bath?"

Xiao Heng never expected that at the moment of parting, what she was thinking about was this kind of thing.

While he was dazed, he couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.

What the hell is this girl?

He laughed softly, took a few steps towards her, and gently clasped her waist with his strong arms, seemingly domineering but restrained.

He obviously didn't touch her, but Gu Jiao felt that the waist surrounded by him seemed to be on fire, and the fire burned all the way to the bottom of her heart, making her little head dizzy.

This feeling is very strange.

Well.

Want to do something.

it's wired.

Xiao Heng looked at her steadfastly, took a panoramic view of her dazed and salivating little face, pulled the corners of her lips, and said to her with a three-pointed bewilderment and hoarseness: "Okay, you come back, let you see. Remember, if you come back safely, if you lose one hair... I will wear one more dress."

Ah ah ah ah ah!
