Chapter 133 Sweet or Am I Sweet?
Gu Mang slowly recuperated his body.
Because of his special situation, neither Your Majesty nor Mo Xi can give Gu Mang justice at this moment.Mo Xi understands what your majesty means - it is Gu Mang's wish to reshape the structure of Chonghua. If Gu Mang's identity is made public like this, all sacrifices and efforts will be in vain.
So both Junshang and Gu Mang hoped that he could keep this secret.
But Mo Xi has never been a person who is good at pretending. This does not mean that his words are unreliable. On the contrary, he is rigorous and self-disciplined, and he will definitely be able to keep his mouth shut—the only thing he can't hide is his feelings for Gu Mang.Although he didn't say anything and tried his best to restrain himself in front of outsiders, within a few days, everyone in Xi He's residence could almost see that his attitude towards Gu Mang had undergone an earth-shaking change.
In the past, he always had a serious face, as if Gu Mang owed him 500 million gold shell coins and hadn't paid him back, but now he even speaks very calmly, with a low, magnetic voice that is pleasant to hear, and has no temper at all.
During Gu Mang's break, a little cook who had no eyesight came and sent him to help light the fire.It wasn't a tiring job, it was just a little dirty, besides, Gu Mang was always in charge of chopping wood and lighting fires before, so he followed suit.As a result, Mo Xi went back home, and when he heard that Gu Mang was being dragged to burn firewood, he went straight to the kitchen, and dragged Gu Mang out amidst the panicked panic of the servants.
The cook panicked: "My lord, my lord..."
"What nonsense?"
The cook: "I just saw that he was idle and wanted to ask him to do me a favor."
"He is still a patient, how can he come to help."
He said to Gu Mang again, "Lie back and sleep."
Cook: "..."
When it comes to such incidents, not only the servants in the kitchen are touched, but also the servant who is in charge of maintaining the treasures of Xihe Mansion on weekdays also has something to say——
"What's the matter of burning a fire? Let me tell you something even more incredible. That day Gu Mang went to catch the fan pocket, and the fan pocket ran fast. Li Hongmei vase, that's right, it's the most expensive one in the entire mansion, it's smashed to pieces!"
Every time he said a paragraph, the people around him who listened to his narration made exclamation sounds such as "wow" and "hiss".
A young servant asked anxiously: "Then what and then? Have you gone to report to the Lord?"
The servant patted his thigh: "Isn't that right? That vase is enough to buy a five-entry house in the north of the city. Can I not report? I will go and tell the Lord about the situation immediately."
"Oh my god...the Lord likes that vase the most, how angry he must be..."
"He was very angry. Do you know what he told me?"
All the servants shook their heads like a rattle.
The servant imitated Mo Xi's serious tone: "Why did you put the vase in that kind of place? What if it hit someone? Was he injured?"
"…………"
After a few moments of silence, a servant let out an extremely embarrassing exclamation: "Wow."
No one knows exactly what happened between Mo Xi and Gu Mang, but everyone who is not blind can see the change in Mo Xi's attitude towards Gu Mang.Fortunately, the staff of Xihe Mansion are clean and simple, and they are considered loyal to Mo Xi, and Li Wei is well controlled, so the people outside the mansion don't know about it for the time being.
"Butler Li, what do you think the Lord is doing? No matter how you say it, Gu Mang is a traitor. He treats him like this now. What should the Lord think, and what should others think..."
Li Wei stood under the wind and rain corridor with his sleeves wrapped, looked at the sparkling water in the courtyard, and said, "Can you trust the Lord?"
"Of course, who is more upright than Chonghua?"
"Then let's trust him, and don't bother with others. He must have his reasons for what he does, and we, as people around him, have only one thing to do."
"what?"
Li Wei said: "Tighten your mouth."
Under careful nursing, Gu Mang's wounds quickly healed.Due to the quenching of the wolf's blood, his physique was much better than before, but what was uncomfortable was that although Jiang Fuli could heal Gu Mang's physical injuries, he couldn't prevent the effectiveness of the Time Mirror from fading.Those memories that were "flashed back" by the mountain paste slowly began to dissipate from Gu Mang's consciousness like quicksand.
Gu Mang probably also knew that if he didn't say something now, he might not have a chance in the future.The sobriety he possessed was, in the end, nothing more than an illusion bestowed by the pity of the heavens.
So he asked Mo Xi for a pen and paper. When Mo Xi was by his side, he talked to Mo Xi. When Mo Xi was not around, he was alone in the room, writing down some things he recalled on the paper. Every day when he wakes up, he will look at what he wrote the day before, and if he has forgotten something, he will remember it again.
He was trying to prolong his sobriety.
When Mo Xi was asleep, he looked at the flower paper he put beside his pillow. On the most prominent part of the paper was written their first meeting in the academy. On the letter paper, Gu Mang wrote—"He sat on the tree After eating zongzi, although he looked up at me, but unfortunately this person has no expression on his face, alas, he should have no impression of me."
Just when he was about to read it carefully, Gu Mang opened his eyes and woke up.Seeing that Mo Xi was flipping through the pages he wrote, he sat up all of a sudden, and quickly snatched the paper from Mo Xi's hand.
"Hey! Don't look at it, don't look at it."
"..." Mo Xi was taken aback for a moment, "Do you mind?"
"You look at me so embarrassed." Gu Mang protected his paper, "If you want to look at it, wait until I have completely forgotten the flashback memories, anyway, at that time I was stupid, my face was not red. I don't dance, I don't know what embarrassment is."
Mo Xi's eyes dimmed.
Gu Mang hurriedly said again: "Oh, it's okay, I don't necessarily forget it so quickly, do I? You see, I am deepening my memory every day, maybe it will take a year or so, oh no, it's ten years. In 20 years, can I still remember it?"
Mo Xi didn't speak, and he didn't expose Gu Mang's lies. He just raised his hand, took the back of Gu Mang's head, and pressed their foreheads together.After a while, he grabbed Gu Mang's right hand, and rubbed Gu Mang's index finger with his calloused fingertips.
Obviously there are so many affections and deep feelings to talk about, and there are so many vows to talk about, but Xi and Jun just stroked Gu Mang's fingers and said in a low voice: "Why are my hands stained with ink, and I don't know how to wash them." Sighing, he continued, "You..."
Gu Mang smiled: "Are you a senior or am I? Are you better or am I better? Why did you teach me a lesson?"
"Of course you are amazing." Mo Xi smiled wryly, "I still can't imagine how you did it, you obviously knew the cause and effect of the matter, but you still didn't say anything, followed Zhou He to become a black devil Trial."
"Then what can I do? I have my helplessness. You also have yours, and your Majesty also has yours. In fact, you should not resent him too much for the things your Majesty did. People are in high places and cannot help themselves. To be honest Well, if he really didn't have any kindness and justice in his heart, he could have found a chance to kill me, but he didn't do that."
Mo Xi didn't say anything.
After a while, he lowered his eyelashes, and then wrapped Gu Mang's hand again.
The generous palm touched the sapphire finger wrench that Gu Mang was wearing.He had already asked Gu Mang about the ring finger before, and after learning that it was given to him by Murong Lian, Mo Xi really didn't understand why, but Gu Mang's body was still very weak at that time, so he didn't ask any more, and now it's done again. Noticing it, Mo Xi couldn't help frowning slightly.
Gu Mang noticed that he was looking at the ring, and his eyelashes trembled imperceptibly.Mo Xi could see his subtle expression, but Mo Xi didn't point it out.Gu Mang was once a member of Murong Lian's family, and the entanglement with Murong Lian lasted for nearly twenty years. Some things have been twisted and twisted for a long time, and it is indeed difficult to explain them in one word.Mo Xi didn't force him, he just said, "Do you want me to return this finger wrench for you? Or do you want to see him in person."
Gu Mang didn't answer right away, he spread his five fingers, looked at the sapphire ring, thought about it for a while, and said, "I still want to go to Wangshu Mansion by myself."
Mo Xi was silent for a while, and said, "Okay."
Hearing his muffled voice, Gu Mang couldn't help raising his eyes and smiling: "Are you unhappy?"
"No." Mo Xi paused, "But remember to wear a mask and a cloak." Having said that, his expression was a little gloomy, "You know, many people in Chonghua want to embarrass you."
Gu Mang said: "I will pay attention."
The water dripping in the house was slowly flowing, and it was getting late.
Mo Xi said: "Then I'll go back to the study first, you should rest early. I still have some files to read. If there is anything, you can come to me directly, and no one will stop you."
Gu Mang smiled and said, "Don't take care of me too much, don't forget that I am a criminal minister, so I have to restrain myself in front of outsiders."
Mo Xi's heart pounded because of this sentence from an outsider, and his heart was suddenly sad. His heart was beating because he had waited for so many years, from a teenager to Erli, until he was in his thirties, before he waited for Gu Mang's sincere approval.
Sadness is because they have experienced too much, and many new and beautiful things have been worn out. The two of them are like patched cloth. Although they are still intact, they are completely different after all.
Gu Mang saw that he was in a bad mood, so he teased him: "Mo Xi."
"Ok?"
Gu Mang lay on the pillow, raised his head and smiled and said, "Come back to sleep with me after reviewing the files, don't go back to your own room. You let me sleep in the master bedroom and sleep in the wing room by yourself. For so many days, it spread and said that I bullied you. you."
Mo Xi lowered his head, pursed his lips, and remained silent.
The moonlight shone down and shone on his ears, revealing some thin crimson.
Mo Xi finally said in a low voice: "You should rest well."
Gu Mang's smile became deeper and deeper. He lowered his eyelashes, stretched out his hand from under the quilt, and touched the face of the little junior brother: "You are so good."
"..."
"It's a pity that senior brother doesn't have candy for you to eat."
Mo Xi looked up at him, then suddenly leaned over and kissed him lightly on the lips.Naturally, he didn't dare to kiss too deeply, there was a fire buried so deep in his heart, and Gu Mang's breath would turn sparks into a sea of flames.So Mo Xi just kissed and sat up straight: "I'm going back."
Gu Mang raised his hand and touched his lips: "Is it sweet?"
Seeing that Mo Xi didn't answer, he continued to ask shamelessly: "Hey, is sugar sweet or am I sweet?"
"..." Mo Xi is not very good at saying love words. If he is anxious or angry, he can burst out some short sentences full of animal nature, but when he is gentle and tender, he is actually very stupid and honest. sharp.
So facing Gu Mang's teasing question, he didn't know what to respond, so he just raised his hand, stretched out two fingers, and tapped lightly on the center of Gu Mang's forehead.
Gu Mang was ordered, and he lay on the bed and kicked the quilt twice: "Anyway, let me tell you something. The older you get, the more bored you become. Forget it if you suffocate to death."
Mo Xi was silent for a while, before he really said a word.What he said was, "Then... good night."
Gu Mang: "..."
The author has something to say:
Mo Xi: Why is the ability to talk about love up, up after the neighbor confesses, but after I confess, it's too early to die?
Er Gouzi next door: Because you haven’t gone through five years of study abroad, do you think that I have traveled around for many years, and the only books I read are serious spell books?I also read a lot of folk tales, okay?
