Chapter 67 Li Yunwan left the table first.
Although she left, everyone else at the dinner table still ate in silence.
Gu Jingyuan's eyes fell on the rice porridge in the bowl and he was slightly lost in thought.
He suddenly put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and walked out.
Looking at his back as he strode away, it looked like he was going to the wing in the backyard where Li Yunwan was staying temporarily.
Gu Chuan blinked and asked in a low voice: "Why doesn't father eat?"
"Father has something to do, Xiaochuan, have a good meal."
Gu Zaili took a piece of meat and put it in Gu Chuan's bowl.
"Oh" Gu Chuan responded and lowered his head to eat.
Gu Jianli was also a little absent-minded.
After she returned home, she told her family what happened in the palace, naturally hiding her aunt's worries.
But she found that even if she concealed her aunt's concerns, what happened was enough to make the situation embarrassing.
Gu Jianli glanced at Mrs.
Tao, feeling confused.
If we talk about distance, naturally my aunt is closer.
But since the family has been in trouble and they have experienced so much together, the relationship between stepmother and daughter is no longer the estrangement it once was.
Gu Jianli was distracted, his thoughts written all over his face.
Ji Wujing looked at her for a while, then suddenly came over and lowered his voice and asked, "Do you want to eavesdrop?"
Gu Jianli was shocked and said hurriedly: "Don't listen to anything inappropriate.
That's my father.
What is he like?"
Ji Wujing said lazily "Oh" and said, "Then you eat slowly, I'm going to see that old guy's excitement."
As he spoke, he stood up.
Gu Jianli hurriedly pulled his sleeve and said seriously: "This is wrong."
Everyone else at the dinner table looked over.
Gu Jianli stubbornly held onto Ji Wujing's sleeves.
Ji Wujing looked at her seriously for a while, then leaned down and asked Gu Jianli's ear, "I really don't want to go."
Gu Jianli felt uncomfortable being at such a close distance in front of a large crowd, not to mention that other people were looking at them all the time.
She frowned and said in a slightly complaining tone: "If you are discovered" "You won't be discovered."
Ji Wujing straightened up and pushed Gu Jianli's wheelchair away.
Gu Jianli whispered to dissuade him: "Stop making trouble."
"Gu Jianli, your father's temper might cause trouble."
Gu Jianli hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "I really won't be found out.
If my father finds out, he will punish me severely."
Ji Wujing sneered.
Gu Jianli felt uneasy.
She was still in a daze as she hid in the closet.
She was taught like a noble lady since she was a child.
She never thought that one day she would be able to eavesdrop.
She felt in her heart that such a move was wrong.
But there was an inexplicable little excitement.
Ji Wujing laughed at her: "Gu Jianli, don't you think the routine life is boring?
That old guy Gu Jingyuan really doesn't know how to raise a daughter."
He patted Gu Jianli's head and said regretfully: "A good little girl was raised to be stupid."
Gu Jianli looked at him disapprovingly.

Just as he was about to speak, Ji Wujing put his index finger on her lips to silence her.
Gu Jianli pursed his lips and looked out through the carved holes in the wardrobe.
The door was pushed open, Li Yunwan walked in front, and her confidant palace maid Pan'er followed behind.
Gu Jianli saw the decoction in Pan'er's hand and realized why his aunt didn't go back to the room directly after returning from the front yard.
Gu Jianli was inexplicably nervous when he thought that he was eavesdropping.
She stood on one foot and leaned her back against the wardrobe.
She lowered her head and glanced, then pretended to be unaware and put her left foot on Ji Wujing's boots.
Ji Wujing glanced at it from the corner of his eye, pretending not to know.
Li Yunwan sat down at the table and took the medicine from Pan'er.
"Mother, you shouldn't go over and eat together.
I see that you haven't eaten much."
"Otherwise," Li Yunwan gracefully held the spoon and gently stirred the still very hot soup, "Do we still have to make the concubine's pie?
I can't eat it alone."
"Based on what I'm saying, you shouldn't have come here."
Pan'er looked at her master with a very distressed look.
Everyone has their own position, and she only feels sorry for her master.
"You always have to meet and speak frankly and clearly.
If you leave without saying goodbye," Li Yunwan looked at the decoction thoughtfully, was silent for a while, and then his voice became softer, "He will blame himself." of."
"You always think about others, why can't you think about yourself?
Madam, why don't we drink this medicine?"
Pan'er's eyes turned red as she spoke, "The imperial doctor clearly said that you have drank too many times over the years, and I'm afraid you will drink it again."
I can’t be a mother anymore.”
Gu Jianli in the closet opened her eyes suddenly and almost screamed.
Fortunately, Ji Wujing covered her mouth in time.
She turned back to look at Ji Wujing and found that he was leaning against the closet lazily, not looking outside at all, just looking at her.
In the first few years, every time Emperor Chang touched Li Yunwan, Li Yunwan would secretly drink Bizi Decoction.
He drank too much, which damaged his body and made him unable to have children.
It was also because the imperial doctor had diagnosed her as unable to give birth.
She did not drink the Bizi Decoction after the incident with Gu Jingyuan.
Who knew Emperor Chang's health has not been as good as before in recent years.
He relies on medicine to have sex, and has long lost the ability to have children.
So Li Yunwan knew that the child in his belly was Gu Jingyuan's.
That day in the palace, she and Gu Jianli jumped down from the attic together.
She fell red and didn't know the existence of the child until she had her fetal breath.
Li Yunwan raised the soup bowl and drank the thick and bitter soup in one sip.
Putting down the bowl, she sipped the soup on her lips, with a slight smile on her face, and said warmly: "Why can't I be a mother?
I have two daughters.
My sister's daughter is my daughter."
"How can that be the case?"
Pan'er burst into tears.
"After all, we are not your biological children.
Will they be able to live happily with you or provide for you until you die?"
Li Yunwan smiled and wiped away Pan'er's tears and said, "I still have Pan'er.
Good boy, stop crying.
We have come out of the prison, and we will live a good life in the future."

Gu Jingyuan stood in front of the door and asked loudly: "Yun Wan, are you there?"
The smile on Li Yunwan's face froze slightly.
Pan'er wiped the tears from her face and said, "My slave, please go and invite King Wuxian to come in."
"Just leave the door open, he won't come in.
Then go to the back room to check if there is anything missing from the things you packed last night."
Pan'er responded, forcing her tears away, opening the door, bowing respectfully, and turned back to the back room.
Gu Jingyuan stood seven or eight steps in front of the door, with no intention of going any further.
The two of them looked at each other from a distance, and Li Yunwan suddenly remembered the day they first met, which was also such a cold day.
She and her sister fled and were trapped in the snowy mountains, and met Gu Jingyuan, who was wearing a military uniform on a horse.
Her elder sister happily told her that she could join forces with Gu Jingyuan.
She was only thirteen years old at the time and didn't understand.
She only knew that Gu Jingyuan on horseback was so majestic and she secretly remembered his appearance in her heart for twenty years.
She always sat quietly and listened to her sister and Gu Jingyuan discussing important matters that she didn't understand.
Later, I sensitively discovered that Gu Jingyuan looked at his sister with a particularly beautiful look.
Later, he gave his sister Rouge jewelry, Lingluo and Meiyu, and also gave her some candies.
The candies were so sweet that she was reluctant to eat them and they all melted.
The memory was put away by her.
She looked at Gu Jingyuan, smiled softly and distantly, and called: "Brother-in-law."
Gu Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The words I had originally thought of were no longer necessary with the word "brother-in-law."
He looked at Li Yun Wan with bright and aboveboard eyes.
He also spoke directly and sincerely.
"Yun Wan, if you were not Yun Yan's sister, I would keep you by my side and give you a status.
But you are her sister, a sister with very similar facial features to hers."
Gu Jingyuan paused, "Yun Wan, you have become your sister's shadow for half your life.
It's still her shadow.
Brother-in-law speaks directly.
I know that you, the child, have always felt inferior in front of your sister.
But when your sister was here, she often told me how good you were.
She liked your gentleness, your delicacy, and your pure kindness.
You should live your own life away from your sister's shadow."
"If you want to return to the Li clan, my brother-in-law will send someone to send you back safely.
If you want to stay in the capital, my brother-in-law will settle you down.
If you marry again in the future, my brother-in-law will send you off as your natal family.
If you don't want to marry, as long as you My brother-in-law will ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing.
Both Zai Li and Jian Li like you, and you love these two children.
It's just that."
Gu Jingyuan was silent for a moment, then continued: "We don't have to see each other again for the rest of our lives."
Li Yunwan always had an elegant smile on his face and listened quietly to Gu Jingyuan's words.
The world was peaceful and quiet, and so was her heart.
"Brother-in-law's words made Yun Wan panic in his heart.
I am not an innocent girl who knows nothing about people in my youth.
It's just a trivial matter, but it makes it so difficult for my brother-in-law.
I stay with my brother-in-law to be your woman.
Are you kidding me?"

Li Yun Wanqing said Laughing out loud, Yun Danfeng said in a gentle tone, "But now that I have left the palace, I naturally have to rely on my brother-in-law.
My brother-in-law will have enough money to support me when I return to the Li clan.
If he is stingy and sends me some broken silver, I can't.
I have to ask God Li Lan to complain to my sister."
Gu Jingyuan looked at the smile on Li Yunwan's face from a distance.
Listening to her gentle tone, he remained silent, nodded and said, "Okay, my brother-in-law will make arrangements for you."
Gu Jingyuan turned around and did not look back.
He said there was no need to see each other for the rest of their lives, and they really never saw each other again for the rest of their lives.
Li Yunwan watched Gu Jingyuan leave until he was out of sight.
She said tremblingly: "Pan'er, close the door."
Pan'er, with tears streaming down her face, ran out from inside and closed the door forcefully.
Li Yunwan covered his mouth with both hands, trying hard to restrain himself from crying.
The pain in her heart was so heavy that she couldn't breathe.
It was so heavy that she couldn't even feel the pain in her abdomen.
The blood stained the apricot dress, stained the chair, and formed a small pool of blood on the ground.
But she smiled again.
She didn't let him know her dirty thoughts, and he would never know.
Ji Wujing, who was hiding in the closet, looked at Gu Jianli for a long time, watching helplessly as her eyes became moistened little by little, and the moisture gradually condensed into teardrops, which rolled down one by one and wet her face.
Ji Wujing's face darkened little by little.
He regretted that he should not have brought Gu Jianli here on a whim.
Gu Jianli looked at Li Yunwan who didn't dare to cry, as if he felt as much pain as his aunt.
She thought of Ji Xuanke.
Gu Jianli vaguely understood that his little liking for Ji Xuanke was so shallow and not worth mentioning.
In the dark and narrow closet, Gu Jianli understood for the first time that love is like a blade, which can leave people bruised and embarrassed.
She sincerely made a wish that she would never be disturbed by words of love in this life, and that she would always be calm, self-possessed, elegant and decent. gd1806102:
