Chapter 14 Dialogue between uncle and nephew, full of desolation

After Gu Hengsheng arranged the sixteen boys and girls properly, he asked the maids and servants in the mansion to keep their mouths shut.

At night, the moon and stars are rare.

Gu Hengsheng's figure appeared in the quiet Qingxinyuan.

Qingxinyuan is the residence of Gu Youmo, the Erlang of the Gu family, who is Gu Hengsheng's second uncle.Although he stays at home and lives in seclusion in the Qingxinyuan all day long, he is well aware of what is happening in the outside world.

During the day, Gu Hengsheng resigned to Prince Pingcheng and caused trouble in Baimenglou, which naturally reached Gu Youmo's ears.So, Gu Youmo called someone to invite Gu Hengsheng over.

"Second uncle, why don't you rest at this late hour?" Gu Hengsheng walked into Qingxinyuan, came to a stone pavilion in the courtyard, and bowed to Gu Youmo who was sitting in a wheelchair.

"You boy will really cause trouble for me. The prince of Pingcheng just came back from the border yesterday, and today you offended him. That's great, my good nephew." Gu Youmo looked like he hated iron for being weak, There was a palpitating smile on his mouth.

"It's... all small things, harmless." Facing his second uncle who cared for him since childhood, Gu Hengsheng had no way to refute, and could only reply with a light grin.

"Emotions are in your eyes, so offending King Pingcheng is a trivial matter, second uncle understands." Gu Youmo frowned, as if sneered in anger: "Did you lose face of Baimenglou in public? How did you grab those beauties by force to get into your Young Master Gu's eyes?"

"..." Gu Hengsheng opened his mouth, and secretly swore that he would rather be beaten up by his second uncle than questioned like this.The key is that Gu Hengsheng can't refute too much. After all, regardless of the perception and heart of the past and present, Gu Youmo is an elder: "Second Uncle, I didn't grab it by force, I bought it."

"Hmm..." Gu Youmo pondered for a moment, slowly raised his eyes that had shocked countless enemy soldiers in the past, and said in a low voice: "You are happy and unrestrained, and let more than ten young masters, including Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhao, serve you You pay the bill, Mr. Gu is really domineering, and offended so many powerful people at once."

"This...Second Uncle, don't worry, I'm sensible." Gu Hengsheng hesitated for a while, then nodded solemnly.

"Property?" Gu Youmo was able to suppress his anger at first, but after hearing Gu Hengsheng's words, he couldn't help but support the armrest of the wheelchair with both hands, and cursed, "If you have a sense of propriety, boy Will my Gu family now have enemies all over the capital? If you can make me feel at ease, you can go around looking for flowers and ask willows? If you have a little bit of promise, will my and your grandfather's hair turn gray so quickly?"

After scolding, Gu Youmo kept panting heavily, staring directly at Gu Hengsheng who was standing in front of him.Then, he slowly shifted his gaze to his unconscious legs, with countless bitterness in his heart.

Quiet, you can hear a needle drop.

Gu Youmo's pale hair was blown by gusts of fresh wind one after another, and a depressive atmosphere spread around him one after another.

Gu Hengsheng's lips moved slightly, and he really wanted to apologize to the second uncle who was getting old in front of him. If he hadn't been protected by the old man and the second uncle all the time, how could he have lived in peace until now.

However, when the words of apology were about to come out, Gu Hengsheng found that it was stuck in his throat and he couldn't express it at all.Because, according to the second uncle's temperament, the last thing he wants to hear is this sentence. If a family doesn't talk about two families, there is no need to apologize.

"Second Uncle, please trust Hang Seng."

After thinking about it, Gu Hengsheng finally had no choice but to bend down, hold the gift of a junior, and clasped his fists solemnly and said.

Seeing this, Gu Youmo's hands trembled slightly. At this moment, he seemed to see the figures of his other two nephews from Gu Hengsheng's body.Back then, Gu Hengsheng's two elder brothers also stood in front of him and made bold words.

Gu Hengsheng's two older brothers were indeed geniuses of the sky, they played the Gu family's illustrious prestige on the battlefield, and made great contributions one after another.It's a pity that he died young... After all, he was no match for the lone grass on the grave.

"Hang Seng!" Gu Youmo closed his eyes, suppressing the tears in his eyes so that no one else could notice, then looked at the dark night sky, and called out in a deep voice.

"Second Uncle, the baby is here." Gu Hengsheng seemed to have sensed Gu Youmo's emotional change, and he hurriedly stepped forward and responded.

"My Gu family is full of loyalty, the younger generation, and now you are the only one left. You shoulder the glorious prestige of my Gu family for decades, so you can't go on messing around like this, understand?"

Gu Youmo looked at the night, and seemed to see his heroic appearance on the battlefield with golden arms and iron horses. He hated himself for being useless and a useless person.You know, what kind of torture it is to let a great general who used to be famous all over the world stay at home for a long time.Maybe, if it wasn't for Gu Jiajiangwei and Gu Hengsheng, he might have committed suicide.

"Hengsheng...Understood." Gu Hengsheng couldn't help but clenched his fists, looking at Gu Youmo's solemn side face, the strings in his heart suddenly tightened.

"Just understand, let's go back!" Gu Youmo looked a little tired, and waved lightly at Gu Hengsheng.

"Yes, Second Uncle." Gu Hengsheng opened his mouth, not knowing how to speak to the respectful Second Uncle in front of him, but he could only utter this sentence.

Slowly turned around, raised his eyes to look back, and secretly clenched his fists.Gu Hengsheng's figure gradually disappeared in Qingxinyuan, leaving only Gu Youmo and the bright moon hanging high in the sky.

Second uncle, my Gu family, Gu Hengsheng, will not decline!
Gu Hengsheng returned to his room, slowly adjusted his breath, and then opened his eyes and muttered to himself: "In a month's time, the Li family may be about to release an ultimatum. It seems that I need to speed up my work." Step forward."

One month later, the Li family will have a complete showdown with the Gu family, and will even send someone to the Gu family to make a betrothal gift, so that Gu Hengsheng can marry him.From the Li family's point of view, this is also the last chance for the Gu family, otherwise they would have turned against the Gu family long ago.

Therefore, Gu Hengsheng's time is very tight now, if he doesn't show some of his own value, I'm afraid the Li family won't just let it go.

As for marrying into the past, it is absolutely impossible.Even if he apologized to the Li family and married Miss Li, Gu Hengsheng would admit it.But the matter of getting married is very important, and Gu Hengsheng would never agree to it no matter what.

In the past, when a strong man at the peak of the Sky Profound Realm married a lady from an aristocratic family, no matter what, he gave the Li family enough face.But from the Li family's point of view, Gu Hengsheng is still that useless playboy, and it's up to the Gu family's prestige to let him marry him.

"It seems that I can only go to that place and hone my frail body."

Gu Hengsheng raised his eyelids slightly, his eyes burst out with a sharp edge.
