During lunch, Gu Chenhuan asked Sang Zhi to go upstairs to Goubuli's room to eat together, without going down or asking about Wei Shengjue's activities.
During this period, Sang Zhi stood beside the latter respectfully and meekly. This time he really had a better memory and didn't say a word that he shouldn't have said.
Instead, Gu Chenhuan took the initiative and asked, "How was Wei Shengjue's relationship with me before leaving the palace?"
"Before choosing the concubine, His Majesty favored you alone. After choosing the concubine -" Sang Zhi stopped at the key point, and then said tactfully, "You were framed, then reprimanded and ignored by His Majesty, and finally expelled.
Leave the palace."
"That's it..." Gu Chenhuan sighed meaningfully, then turned around as if nothing had happened, and while picking up food for Goubuli, he said calmly, "After this meal, we will set off back to the prison, what do you do?
Are you mentally prepared?"
Goubuli buried his head in the rice. He likes to eat sweets. For today’s lunch, Sang Zhi went to the right place and prepared frosted sugar rice. Now he was enjoying the meal. He only had time to ask vaguely: "Huh? What's going on?
Prison?"
"Go back to prison!" Gu Chenhuan said as he calmly raised his hand and took away the half-eaten rice bowl in front of Goubuli.
Goubuli's fleshy face immediately wrinkled into a bun, and he said pitifully: "Mom..."
Gu Chenhuan looked at Goubuli's white baby teeth that had just grown in. He was unwavering: "It's not good to be cute. Eating too much sweets is not good for your teeth."
At this time, Goubuli didn't dare to refute. Sang Zhi finally spotted the opening and asked quickly: "Master, are we leaving now? Your Majesty hasn't—"
Gu Chenhuan didn't even raise his head, "You don't have to ask him."
"But--"
"Even if you ask him, you may not be able to find him now." Gu Chenhuan added.
Sang Zhi was stunned for a moment. Before she could realize what Gu Chenhuan meant, she saw Shi Chong running in panting at this moment. After coming in, he apologized and then immediately said anxiously: "Your Majesty, your majesty is gone!
"
Only then did Sang Zhi understand what Gu Chenhuan meant, and immediately looked at her, with no concealment of surprise in her eyes.
Gu Chenhuan just pretended not to see it and said calmly: "Such a big man can't be lost."
But Shi Chong obviously didn't believe it, and he had a struggling look on his face, as if he was torn between whether to stay and escort the empress with whom he had gained a lot of favor, or to quickly go find the beautiful emperor to whom he swore allegiance to the death...
Gu Chenhuan saw that he was struggling and looked like he was constipated, so he kindly explained: "He has something to do and will go back to the palace first. You don't have to worry."
After saying that, she looked at Goubuli and saw him picking at the vegetables listlessly. She didn't know whether it was because he had no sweets and no appetite or because he was unhappy because of Wei Shengjue's attitude. She continued, "Prepare the carriage, we are leaving."
After Shi Chong accepted the order and went down, Sang Zhi asked hesitantly: "Master, did your Majesty really say that?"
"It's fake. I'm just talking nonsense. The devil knows where he went." Gu Chenhuan replied casually.
Then it suddenly occurred to me that the ghosts really knew about this - Sheng Xia Bei's ghost servants were responsible for inquiring about information, weren't they?
Anyang is not far from the Imperial Capital. After eating, we set off. The carriage kept going all the way until we finally arrived at the wild woods outside the Imperial Capital in the evening.
It was almost dark at this time, and walking through the woods looked even more eerie and depressing.
Shi Chong ordered the car to stop first, and then came over to ask Gu Chenhuan for instructions: "Empress, otherwise I will order someone to stop, let's rest for the night, shall we?"
Gu Chenhuan lowered his head, Goubuli had fallen asleep in his arms, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he looked uncomfortable.
They had been driving non-stop for so long, not to mention Goubuli's little kid, Gu Chenhuan himself was tired.
But after thinking about it again, Gu Chenhuan still said: "Continue on your way."
Shi Chong looked at the sleeping Goubuli with some embarrassment, and continued to ask for instructions: "But -"
"Hurry up and try to get into the city and find an inn to stay before the lights are turned on." Gu Chenhuan explained, "It's getting dark and it's not safe in the woods."
There was an attack the day before yesterday when it was still broad daylight. Now that it is dark, it is a suitable time to kill people and set fires, so we need to be even more careful.
I have to say that Gu Chenhuan's considerations are very reasonable. However, I don't know if God is deliberately trying to confirm Gu Chenhuan's words. Suddenly, there is a whistling wind all around, bringing with it the coolness and chill of the night -
