Jing Dongheng walked along the road for two days, bypassed their county town, stored the donkey cart, rented a carriage and drove towards the north.
Jingzhou Prefecture is next to the Imperial City and far away from the county seat where Jing Dongheng is located. Jing Dongheng walked all the way from the county seat for nearly seven days before reluctantly arriving at the nearby city of Jingzhou Prefecture.
When he got there, he rested for two days and inquired about some things, and found out that Gu Renwu had actually disobeyed the emperor's order.
Originally, he was going to kill him, but he couldn't hold it down. Gu Renwu had also made great contributions. Many old officials in the court interceded for him. They just said that Gu Renwu had also served the country and was beaten until his legs were disabled. How could he just kill him? .
In addition, when the emperor saw Gu Renwu, Gu Renwu was already half dead, as if he had some serious illness. He immediately removed Gu Renwu's military power and asked him to return to his hometown to recuperate.
"Didn't you say that the Gu family has a concubine in the palace? Why is His Majesty the Emperor so ignorant of the concubine's face?"
Some people who were not very familiar with this place asked, and Jing Dongheng also listened attentively, and then he knew that Gu Ren The imperial concubine and I are not of the same mother and father. On the contrary, we still have some differences. It would be a good thing if we didn't take the opportunity to add insult to injury.
When the people next to him heard this, they all admired that after all, there were so many things in a wealthy family that ordinary people couldn't even imagine.
Everyone said yes, but no one could tell whether it was true or false, so they just treated it as a joke.
Jing Dongheng listened closely and knew that Gu Renwu's life was probably not easy either. Now that he has no military power, his legs still hurt terribly from time to time. He is like a tiger without teeth. He doesn't know how to endure it in Gu's house. On what day.
With this in mind, Jing Dongheng rested here for at least a day and hurried towards Jingzhou Prefecture.
Jingzhou Prefecture is a top-notch big city. Even though Jing Dongheng had traveled there from modern times, he couldn't help but stare at such a prosperous and lively ancient city for a long time.
The people behind him urged him a few times, and Jing Dongheng followed the rules and left his name before heading towards the city.
After he arrived in the city, he found out where the address Gu Renwu had left for him.
"It's not a good place over there. If you're from a foreign country, don't go there." The inn he stayed in was a small one, but the owner was kind-hearted. He reminded Jing Dongheng that it was the villain area of Jingzhou Prefecture, so he didn't want to go there easily. Go over there.
"Really?" Jing Dongheng was a little surprised when he heard this. He originally thought that Gu Renwu might be trapped in Gu Mansion was waiting for him to rescue him, but now he heard that the place where he was was actually a villain area, which was much different from what he imagined.
"Yes, but I heard that some of the leaders over there made a big fuss recently, and after injuring many people, they became more peaceful. I don't know what happened. We ordinary people won't know." The owner of the inn left after saying this.
Jing Dongheng waited until it was almost evening, put on something and headed over there.
It was said to be a villain area. When Jing Dongheng went there, he found that apart from being a little chaotic, it was very lively and nothing was different from other places.
He looked around and finally walked towards an antique shop.
The antique shop looked to be quite old, with all kinds of things piled up inside. The owner opened the small window and looked at Jing Dongheng, then waved his hand impatiently, telling Jing Dongheng to leave quickly.
Jing Dongheng hesitated for a moment. He exited and found that he had found the right place, and then walked in again.
The shop owner heard the sound and opened the door to find it was Jing Dongheng, and cursed angrily.
Seeing that he was about to close the small window, Jing Dongheng said quickly: "I'm here to find Gu Pingshan."
After he said this, the small window slammed shut, and then he heard a banging sound coming from behind, and a sound came from behind Jing Dongheng. A small door opened, revealing the owner of the antique shop.
"How dare you call him by his name! Come here!" The owner of the antique shop grabbed Jing Dongheng and led him towards the small door without saying a word.
Waiting for Jing Dongheng to pass through the small door, he walked out of the antique shop soon, followed the boss down a flight of steps, and came to another busy street.
Jing Dongheng looked at the bustling and lively scene in front of him in shock. He took two steps forward and saw a two-story wooden building standing in the middle of the street. People below naturally walked around the wooden building.
"Isn't that who you are looking for? Did you see it? It's up there." The owner of the antique shop pointed. Jing Dongheng looked up and on the second floor of the wooden building, a curtain was rolled up to see a man in a blue shirt. The tall man was drinking with someone.
Jing Dongheng saw the other party's profile through the light, it was Gu Pingshan.
"Okay, I'll go up and find him." Jing Dongheng nodded and walked that way.
The owner of the antique shop stretched out his hand to pull Jing Dongheng and said, "You foreigner really don't want to die. I wonder if that man is in a bad mood these days? You are still approaching him."
"He is not in a good mood. What will happen?" Jing Dongheng asked with a frown.
The owner of the antique shop hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not that bad, it's just a little scary. Go ahead."
Jing Dongheng didn't understand the meaningful smile of the owner of the antique shop, so he walked towards the wooden building.
His actions attracted the attention of many people, and everyone stared at Jing Dongheng. Two big men with flowery arms stood at the door of the wooden building. After looking at Jing Dongheng, they raised their chins and asked Jing Dongheng to speak.
"Someone asked me to give this letter to Gu Pingshan." Jing Dongheng looked at the other person and said something. When the other person heard Jing Dongheng reciting his name, his expression changed. One person stretched out his hand to hold Jing Dongheng down, and the other person took Went upstairs with the letter.
Jing Dongheng could hear the man's voice thumping.
A message quickly came from the second floor, asking Jing Dongheng to be brought up.
"Let's go!"
Jing Dongheng was roughly pulled to the second floor. When he entered, he could smell the strong smell of wine. There were already pieces of soup on the table and many wine bottles.
Jing Dongheng took a look and saw a man in a green shirt sitting inside. The man's hair was simply tied up, revealing his handsome facial features. His aura matched well with this environment, making him look a bit scary.
Jing Dongheng's heart skipped a beat, knowing that this person was Gu Pingshan and Gu Renwu!
"Who gave you the letter?" Gu Renwu held the letter, glanced at the words on the letter, and his expression changed.
Jing Dongheng looked around and said, "Let them all go down."
Gu Renwu glanced at Jing Dongheng, and he raised his hand to let everyone go.
After everyone left, Jing Dongheng told Gu Renwu that it was a letter from a man named Gu Pingshan.
"Hey, it's impossible. It's me, Gu Pingshan. Why don't I remember that I gave you this letter?" Gu Renwu flicked the letter and said, "The handwriting is very similar."
"I didn't lie to you, you If you don't believe it, you can open the letter and read it. I believe everything will become clear after you read the letter." Jing Dongheng didn't show any fear when facing Gu Renwu, but on the contrary, he looked at Gu Ren from time to time. I.
When Gu Renwu heard the sound, he opened the letter and read it bit by bit by candlelight. The more he read, the more horrified he felt.
He looked at Jing Dongheng with a changed expression.
Jing Dongheng also stood up and said: "How is it?"
Gu Renwu looked outside and sneered twice. He no longer knew what to say to Jing Dongheng. He finally said reluctantly: "The letter said you Are you a farmer from Jingjia Village? "
"Yes." Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu and said, "It's your decision."
Gu Renwu's expression suddenly changed, his eyes fierce. Looking at Xiang Jing Dongheng, his murderous intent was evident.
Jing Dongheng took two steps back, frowned and said, "What's going on? You said you would understand everything after you read the letter!"
Gu Renwu looked at the letter again, then at Jing Dongheng, and finally from He took out a piece of jade dripping with blood from his arms.
After Jing Dongheng saw the piece of jade, he looked at Gu Renwu in surprise.
"This is my biggest secret, and you actually know it." Gu Renwu's voice and eyes could no longer be described as ferocious. He was like a wild beast preparing to hunt.
Cold sweat broke out on Jing Dongheng's back. He nodded silently and looked at Gu Renwu intently.
Gu Renwu walked towards Jing Dongheng silently, his left leg still felt a little uncomfortable.
"You want me to give up all this and go farming with you? Be a farmer in the soil?" Gu Renwu was about the same height as Jing Dongheng, but at the moment, Jing Dongheng felt like he was being looked down upon.
"Wrong, you want it yourself, not me." Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu, and he found that the living Gu Renwu stimulated his heart even more, and his palms couldn't help but press Gu Renwu's shoulders. , as if pressing on an iron.
Gu Renwu noticed Jing Dongheng's actions and raised his eyebrows. No one dared to do this.
"I'm leaving now. If you don't come with me, forget it." Jing Dongheng was not frightened by Gu Renwu. On the contrary, because he had gotten along with Gu Renwu before, he knew Gu Renwu better. What is the inner character like.
After Jing Dongheng said this, before Gu Renwu could be surprised, he turned around and walked downstairs.
Gu Renwu watched Jing Dongheng walk step by step to the corner of the stairs. At this time, Jing Dongheng turned around and looked at Gu Renwu with a frown.
"Aren't you leaving?" Gu Renwu stood there and twitched the corner of his mouth, looking like a ruffian from the God of War.
Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu and said, "I still can't bear to leave you."
After Jing Dongheng said this, Gu Renwu stood there as if he had been punched by someone. He frowned and walked away slowly. Go down the stairs and arrive in front of Jing Dongheng.
Jing Dongheng looked at Gu Renwu, Gu Renwu came over and lowered his voice and said: "Brother, should you? Are you attracted to me?"
"A little bit," Jing Dongheng said.
Gu Renwu twitched the corners of his mouth, and his smile became a little weird. He moved his lips and said, "You are seeking death!" When
Jing Dongheng heard this, he turned around and walked downstairs.
