Chapter 116 Stab the knife
When Gu Mingzhu woke up, it was dawn, but it didn't look like morning.

She rolled her eyes in a daze for a while, and when she woke up, she felt that her throat was a little itchy, so she coughed twice.

The house was silent, and the door was closed.

Gu Mingzhu supported her forehead, unable to recall any details for a while, so she had to give up.

She just felt as if she had slept for a long time, turned over and was about to get out of bed, but just as she moved, her legs softened inexplicably, and she rolled down.

A happy voice came from the door: "Miss?"

Gu Mingzhu gasped, feeling as if her whole body had been run over by a stone.

Huanhuan couldn't hear the answer, so she called again, pushed the door open and entered, seeing Gu Mingzhu who was helping the bed, she was shocked and stepped forward: "Miss, why did you fall?"

Gu Mingzhu sat up with her strength, her forehead seemed to be about to explode, she tried her best to recall what happened last night, and only noticed herself after a while.

Gu Mingzhu: "..."

She was silent for a while, then looked up: "Last night?"

His voice was hoarse, and his head still felt a little sore.

Gu Mingzhu's face froze, and she couldn't help covering her throat, thinking about it, and pondering: "I...drunk?"

Huanhuan lowered her head, not daring to look at her: "Yes, miss drank too much."

Gu Mingzhu raised her forehead, but she couldn't remember anything.

After a while, he said, "Call for hot water."

Taking advantage of her soothing time, Huanhuan brought in the tea soup: "Miss, drink some of this, and your throat will be relieved after a while."

Gu Mingzhu took it tactfully, drank it all, and then said: "What about others?"

Huanhuan lowered her head: "Young master has gone to the military camp."

She rubbed her brows to herself: "When did you go there?"

"It's bright."

She hummed and asked, "What time is it?"

"It's past noon."

Gu Mingzhu sank into the water, held it in for a while, then came out out of breath, wiped a handful of water droplets, and said, "I'm drunk, am I crazy?"

Huanhuan hesitated and said nothing.

Gu Mingzhu had a bad intuition, and said, "Why don't you talk?"

Huanhuan's eyes dodged, he didn't dare to look at her, and replied, "Miss called for beating and killing last night."

"Calling and shouting?" Gu Mingzhu frowned in doubt.

"Yes." She glanced suspiciously: "Miss, don't you even remember?"

I don't remember at all.

Gu Mingzhu thought.

Huanhuan thought for a while, and then said: "Master was tortured a lot last night, his neck was injured, and the servant girl saw that his mouth was broken in the morning, it looked like... like..."

"Hungry, hungry..." Gu Mingzhu didn't want to recall anymore.

Huanhuan got up and said, "Servant, go pass the meal."

After dinner, Gu Mingzhu sat next to the fire, and it will be the New Year in two days. Those things that have been kept on the back were dragged out in this deserted afternoon.

marriage.

If the Li Kingdom advances troops after the beginning of spring, it will definitely be a fierce battle. Now the troops of the twelve states in the southeast are commanded by Xu Jue. He wants to be stationed in Duanzhou, and a new system needs to be established. The two of them should live a life where they can't see each other again.

You have to give someone a name.

As Gu Mingzhu thought about it, her mood gradually drifted away.

She changed the trajectory of the world, and pushed herself into the door of destiny. There is no reason to retreat, except to move forward.

Not only for herself, but also for Xu Jue, and for those people who fell at her feet in the southeast.

The establishment of a new system requires ministers of civil and military affairs, but just this point, Gu Mingzhu is in trouble.

She really wants to be emperor?
Immediately, a voice from the bottom of my heart answered instead of her: No.

Gu Mingzhu has always been sober. Everything she did was because of Yun Zhao, but she never considered this last seat.

She has seen with her own eyes many people who are driven by the power, and she herself can't guarantee that if one day she is really the one, how will she restrict the world.

The desire for power blinds the heart, and the heart is changeable.

Gu Mingzhu was thinking quietly, and suddenly a name came to mind.

Then he heard his voice: "Why are you so preoccupied?"

Gu Mingzhu looked up suddenly, and Xu Jue was leaning against the door, looking at her.

He was wearing a dark red tunic today, and he looked more and more flamboyant.

Gu Mingzhu felt an unexplainable feeling in her heart.

Xu Jue.

Xu Jue...

Gu Mingzhu silently recited the name twice in her heart, and said, "What are you doing standing at the door?"

Xu Jue stepped into the room, until he approached, Gu Mingzhu saw the situation clearly, what kind of rights, the throne, all pushed back for a while: "Your mouth..."

The lower lip was obviously bitten, and half of the skin had been torn.

Gu Mingzhu's face froze, meeting his half-smile and teasing look.

While trying to recall the details of last night, she also felt ashamed.

Xu Jue said, "What's wrong with my mouth?"

Gu Mingzhu coughed and said, "It's good."

Xu Jue sat down beside him, and Huanhuan came in with a few dishes. Gu Mingzhu looked at the food and said, "Didn't you eat lunch?"

Xu Jue said: "I didn't care about it, I went to the military camp, and discussed with Yueyan and the others about the relief money."

Xu Jue was not a heavy eater, so he ate simply. When he was half full, he glanced at Gu Mingzhu, who was obviously distracted.

She was wrapped in a snow-white cloak, which was not too hot in this room, and she wore a scarf.

Xu Jue said, "Isn't it hot?"

Gu Mingzhu wrapped it tighter instead: "It's okay."

Thinking of something, Xu Jue chuckled, but didn't expose her.

While packing up the dishes, Huanhuan entered the room, but Gu Mingzhu didn't pay much attention until the soup and medicine were brought to her: "Miss, it's time to take the medicine."

Gu Mingzhu was slightly taken aback.

She looked up at Huanhuan, the girl drooped her eyelids and said nothing.

"" What medicine did you drink? "Xu Jue approached and asked casually.

Gu Mingzhu smiled and said, "Ordinary tonic."

Huanhuan pouted, and looked down at Gu Mingzhu's meaningful smile.

Xu Jue took it over and said, "It really needs to be mended."

He blew a spoonful and handed it to Gu Mingzhu's lips. Her eyelashes moved and she said, "I'll do it myself."

Xu Jue didn't let go: "What's the matter today? People who usually frown when they smell medicine actually want to take medicine today."

Gu Mingzhu reached out to pick it up, and those jade-like hands held the soup bowl.

Just as Xu Jue was about to let go, he suddenly said, "Huanhuan, what kind of tonic did Miss take? Deficiency or Quhan?"

He knew that Gu Mingzhu's hands and feet were cold in winter.

Huanhuan said in a low voice: "It drives the cold."

Gu Mingzhu lowered her head and was about to drink when she was suddenly held down by the bowl.

These two people are very strange.

Xu Jue said, "Dispel the cold? Are you sure?"

Huanhuan's body trembled.

Gu Mingzhu didn't change her face: "What are you scaring her for? It's not a cold medicine, but it's poison?"

Xu Jue pressed the mouth of the bowl and did not move, his eyes stayed on her for a moment, then turned to Huanhuan: "What kind of medicine is this?"

Huanhuan hurriedly knelt down, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"Okay! Don't tell me." Xu Jue snatched the bowl: "Ming Yi."

The boy fell quietly.

"Go ask the doctor to come."

"Yes."

Gu Mingzhu sat on the chair without making a sound.

There was a strange atmosphere in the house.

Xu Jue stared at the bowl of thick black soup, feeling that things were not that simple.

The doctor came quickly, with a medicine box, and checked Gu Mingzhu's pulse through a veil.

He spoke slowly, his expression changed from relaxed to puzzled to dignified, and finally said: "Your Highness, how are you eating these days?"

Xu Jue said, "It's not bad."

The doctor thought for a while, and then said, "Do you feel tired all over?"

Xu Jue glanced at him and said, "That's not true."

"Do you have narcolepsy?"

Xu Jue thought about it for a while, and said, "I'm sleepy in winter. Is sleepiness a symptom of lethargy?"

The doctor nodded knowingly, and said, "It's okay, have you had nightmares recently?"

"I had several nightmares." Xu Jue said.

Gu Mingzhu didn't say a word.

The doctor looked dignified, and pressed her palm through the veil, and after a while, he raised his head and said, "Your Highness, is this old man telling the truth?"

Xu Jue said, "Say it straight."

The doctor said: "Your Highness, your body looks fine at present, but the breath in your body is messy, and it seems that your chest is stagnant. Your Highness didn't know martial arts when you were young, right?"

Xu Jue said, "No."

After Xu Jue finished answering, her heart sank. It was Gu Xiurong who said Gu Mingzhu didn't know martial arts when she was young, but now...

The doctor nodded: "That's right. Your Highness wants to learn dance too quickly, and if you take a fork in the road, although it won't kill you instantly, but the disadvantage of short life is almost the same as killing your life. After the bones are watered with soup, they have faintly lost their healing power. If things go on like this , if you are seriously injured, you may die immediately."

The doctor put her hand down, and said earnestly: "This method hurts one's own blood, and in the future, the child will definitely be difficult to conceive. Stop now, take care of it, and there will be a turning point."

Gu Mingzhu finally opened her mouth in this long time: "I'm sorry."

The doctor nodded, wrote down the prescription, handed it to Huanhuan who was beside him, and said, "After stopping the medicine, take one meal a day for a month, then check the pulse again and change the prescription."

Huanhuan nodded and took it, and sent him out.

Xu Jue didn't speak, his eyes were faintly burning, and he was staring at the bowl of medicine with something else between his eyes. Angry from his heart, he waved his hand, and the black soup fell beside the door.

He stared at Gu Mingzhu, and seeing her calm expression, he obviously knew what was going on for a long time.

"Okay! Very good!" Xu Jue was very angry: "I tried every means to hide it from me? It's not cold, but it's poison?"

Dun Ke Dun: "Did you pour poison into your own mouth?"

Gu Mingzhu said: "This is my own business."

Xu Jue said, "Your business?"

He stared at her with a sneer, and repeated in a gloomy tone: "your own business?"

Gu Mingzhu had a headache.

Xu Jue said coldly: "From now on, you are not allowed to touch this medicine again!"

Gu Mingzhu stared at him: "Impossible."

Xu Jue approached, looked down at her from top to bottom, the light in his eyes was astonishing: "Impossible? I will kill anyone who dares to boil medicine for you! Let me see who dares!"

She stepped back a little, not being threatened by him, with a cold expression: "Then I will do it myself."

"In the twelve states in the southeast, there is no one who can be driven by you. What are you going to do? Gu Mingzhu, do you have a heart!"

"No." Her eyes were also covered with ice, and she answered simply: "If you insist on forcing me like this, then I, now, order you as King Ming, Xu Jue, don't interfere with me."

"Don't interfere with you?" Xu Jue's face was livid: "Don't interfere with you? What a King Ming! What a Gu Mingzhu!"

Gu Mingzhu regretted it as soon as she said it, but the current situation is really...

Xu Jue's eyes were grim: "So? What am I? Married? Is it fun to play with me?"

He approached her within a palm's distance, his breath was scorching hot and melted the ice: "Let me just ask, will you still drink this medicine in the future?"

Gu Mingzhu didn't answer.

"If you touch me again, I swear! The world is so big, you will never see me again!"

Gu Mingzhu's eyelids trembled.

He couldn't see a turning point in her face, sometimes she was really terribly persistent, just like when she said to throw him away, she threw him away.

Xu Jue straightened up slowly, and the two of them were silent for a long while before saying, "So, I wish you all the best."

Xu Jue took two steps and looked back. The man sat quietly on the chair. He turned his head and stepped out the door.

Gu Mingzhu moved her knuckles and looked towards the empty door.

He is leaving.

He was angry.

Why do you have to use this martial arts?
At the beginning, she had to, because there was no one she could trust, she only believed in herself.

Gu Mingzhu stood up abruptly.

Yes, she can keep him!

The white figure rushed out the door, heading straight for the gate, and as soon as it reached the gate of the courtyard, it collided with Chu Qiu and almost fell down.

Chu Qiu hurriedly supported her: "Miss, what happened?"

"What about others? What about people?"

"Who?"

Gu Mingzhu's tone was anxious, with sweaty palms: "Ah Jue...Xu Jue!"

Chu Qiu hesitated: "Master, he..."

Gu Mingzhu was about to chase after her, but Chu Qiu grabbed her: "Miss?"

Gu Mingzhu looked flustered, looking anxious: "I'm going to find him...I won't let him go...He's a liar, he's a big liar!"

Chu Qiu's expression was complicated, and he didn't know what the two of them were playing: "Miss..."

Chu Qiu glanced behind her and said, "Isn't the young master right behind you?"

Gu Mingzhu turned around abruptly.

Not far away, Xu Jue was standing under the corridor, as if he had been watching her for a long time.

Chu Qiu touched his nose and felt that the atmosphere was not right at the moment, so he said silently: I'd better come back later.

The two just watched from a distance for a while.

He just said, "Come here."

Gu Mingzhu really walked over and stopped in front of him.

Xu Jue looked at her for a moment, and said, "What are you doing here? Have you changed your mind? Or are you here to see me off?"

Gu Mingzhu: "..."

"There's no need to send it off." He took two steps, and was pulled back just as he passed her.

Gu Mingzhu tugged at him, and said in a low voice, "Wrong."

Xu Jue said, "What's wrong?"

"I was wrong……"

"His Highness Prince Ming will also do wrong things?"

Gu Mingzhu looked up at him pitifully: "Ah Jue..."

"Ah, what Jue? How about you calling Xu Jue in the room just now? Can you restrain yourself from stabbing people when you get angry?"

Gu Mingzhu: "..."

Xu Jue locked the man back into the room, closed the door, untied the cloak with one hand, pressed the man against the door panel and kissed.

Gu Mingzhu was startled, she was held down by him and wanted to struggle but didn't dare to struggle, kissed for a long time, his head rested on her shoulder, breathing heavily, hot breath sprayed along her neck.

After being quiet for a while, Gu Mingzhu said: "After kissing, you can't be angry anymore."

Xu Jue propped himself up, locked him between his arms, and snorted coldly: "You know how to do business."

"Of course……"

Xu Jue looked at her quietly, and said in a moment: "Gu Mingzhu, if it's really impossible, you can kill me."

Gu Mingzhu reached out and hugged him: "That won't work."

"Short-lived ghost." Xu Jue said.

Gu Mingzhu whispered: "I promise you, I will take good care of myself in the future."

Xu Jue kissed the center of her brow, with a tired expression, said: "Mingzhu, live well, we all have to live well."

"Ah."
