Gu Qing looked at her quietly without saying any words to comfort her.

He is just like Master, even if Lian Sanyue dies, he will not cry.

You cry yourselves.

What does it have to do with me?

It wasn't until he felt something strange on his face that he reached out to touch it and found that it was wet with tears, and he woke up.

I am not Master.

Of course he is not Jing Jiu.

Jing Jiu is the son of Divine Emperor, and he has lived in the Imperial Palace since he was born.

Although his father is also a big shot in Gu Household, he has lived in that side courtyard since he was born. The courtyard is very small and shabby, even worse than those respectable servants. Because his mother is not a real wife, she is not even a concubine at the beginning. She is either a maid with the same wife, or just a maid who is used at will by the male master.

Gu Household has developed to this day, and there are certainly merits. All children, regardless of direct or distant relatives, will have the opportunity to receive education, and will be checked to see if they have any spiritual talent. There will be no omissions. Fortunately, Gu Qing showed his spiritual talent at a very young age, but unluckily enough, he also has an older brother who has a better talent than him, and he is a legitimate son.

Gu Household made some preparations and sent Gu Qing to Green Mountain a few years later.

The brother named Gu Han was naturally very indifferent to him, but he was not bad either. He took him to Twofold Forgetting Peak and made him Sword Attendant Green Mountain Chief Disciple Guo Nanshan.

If his life continues on this trajectory, after Sword Inheritance, he will officially join Twofold Forgetting Peak, work hard to practice and kill enemies, and use his seniority and merit to exchange for precious Elixirs and Sword Technique, and then see if he has any hope of becoming Elder on which peak in two hundred years.

The problem is that on the night of Sword Inheritance, he met Jing Jiu, and his life changed drastically.

His Flying Sword was smashed into the distant mountains by Jing Jiu like broken metal.

At that moment, in addition to anger and humiliation, he felt more confused.

He couldn't figure out what was going on, so he asked Jing Jiu in Consciousness.

Asking the opponent who had just defeated him was very baffling in itself. What was even more baffling was that Jing Jiu actually answered seriously.

Because he used Six Dragons Sword Arts on Sword Inheritance Assembly in advance, he was suspended from sword practice for one year.

Gu Han was a little unhappy, but said nothing and asked him to wait for another three years Sword Inheritance.

Three years of stagnation in the practice of Daoism often means Great Dao is hopeless. Just when Gu Qing felt desperate, Liu S sui said to him, "Do you want to go there and try?"

Gu Qing thought for a long time and finally made a decision.

This decision would definitely offend Gu Han, and even make Gu Household give up cultivating him, but he still did it, and at the moment he made the decision, he felt unprecedentedly relaxed. Because from that moment on, he finally left Gu Han and Gu Household.

He went to Divine End Peak, Jing Jiu and Zhao Layue and said Steward was not needed, but this mountain is so big, you can just live there.

He lived in Divine End Peak and built a room Wooden House with Monkeys.

Three years later, Jing Jiu and Zhao Layue returned from Haizhou. He joined Sword Inheritance and naturally became a disciple of Jing Jiu, and was awarded the Heaven-Bearing Sword Technique of Heavenly Light Peak.

These experiences are indeed wonderful. In other stories, they are usually treated like male protagonists, but he clearly knows that his spiritual talent is not as good as that of his two teachers, nor as good as Liu S sui and Zhuo Rusui and others he met later. After meeting Tong Yan, he knows that he is definitely not smart.

He can only spend more time practicing and put more effort into other aspects.

He handled everything meticulously and became Divine End Peak's real butler, then became Jing Yao's teacher, worked as Green Mountain's agent for Sect Master for several years, and now he has become the supervisor of the country.

Of course it is difficult to govern the country, and he was a little unsure at the beginning, but he has assisted Jing Yao very well over the past hundred years, and no one can find any fault.

The days in Imperial City were so long that it was difficult for him to remember the small, damp and dark yard of Gu Household back then.

His mother had long since moved out of that yard and became the most respected Old Madam in the entire Lineage. She passed away peacefully and contentedly seventy years ago.

For mortals, Elixirs and Life Extension have limited effect, and no one can avoid it when the deadline comes.

When his mother passed away, Gu Qing left Chaoge City and returned home once. That was his last connection with Mortal World.

When his father died, he did not go back, so Gu Household naturally did not dare to have any opinions.

No matter who looks at it, Gu Qing's monastic career is very smooth, enviable and even jealous.

After he met Jing Jiu, he only had one desperate opportunity at Heavenly Light Peak Summit, but he hadn't succeeded yet.

"Have you ever risked your life for anyone in your life?"

He knew that someone had asked Master this question, but Master had no answer.

When he thought about it, Master was willing to fight tooth and nail for Lian Sanyue, because he had seen the look in Heavenly Master's father's eyes before he fell.

What about myself? Besides Master, who else am I willing to fight for?

Beside the window, Empress Dowager Hu was crying silently.

Gu Qing thought silently, I am willing to fight for you.

Yes, although nothing else can be done.

When did it start?

Gu Qing Can't remember clearly.

He doesn't talk much, and he doesn't like to chatter as much as Zhuo Rusui and Yuan Qu, but maybe it's because the yard was too Quiet when he was a child, but he actually likes to be lively.

Hotpot He doesn't eat much, but in fact he is the one who organizes those things.

He likes this feeling like home.

Probably just like Jing Jiu likes to watch them eat Hotpot.

He didn't want to leave Divine End Peak, not even for a day, but he was thrown into Chaoge City by Master. At first, he was really not used to it, and even had some resentment, until he later discovered that there would be hot supper on his table every night, no matter whether he ate it or not.

At that time, she was still Consort Hu. She wanted to stabilize Green Mountain as a strong supporter, so she was naturally very polite and enthusiastic towards him.

But he has always been very cold towards her, abiding by the rules, keeping a distance, and rarely even looking at her.

The reason is very simple... Consort Hu is so beautiful that he really wants to see it, but he knows there will be problems.

This is a Fox Demon with profound morals. No matter how neatly she is dressed, even if she is wearing a peasant Cotton-Padded Jacket, she is still more attractive than an ordinary woman who is naked.

What's even more troublesome is that he finds that Consort Hu is often looking at him.

There was no lust in her eyes, only curiosity and fawning.

But, what do you think I do?

Don't you know that something will happen if you continue to look at it like this?

Gu Qing is very depressed, so naturally he won't give her a good look.

Consort Hu probably misunderstood what he meant, thinking that this righteous disciple looked down on his origin, and became indifferent to him.

That was more than a hundred years ago.

Later.

Divine Emperor left this world.

He returned from Green Mountain to Chaoge City.

Quiet in the Imperial Palace.

Jing Yao, with red eyes, suppressed his grief and handled government affairs with the help of ministers.

The Quiet in the temple looks like a tomb.

He stood outside the window and looked at her from a distance.

At that time, she seemed to have been drained of her soul, her face was pale, and she just sat on the couch numbly.

All Palace Maid and Eunuchs were driven away by her.

Suddenly, she started crying and never stopped.

She burst into tears.

Her liver was broken.

Dark clouds came from Night Sky, covering Starlight, as if Stars couldn't bear to listen.

Gu Qing even doubted that if she were allowed to continue crying, she would die from crying.

He couldn't help but just watch, so he walked into the palace and came to her, wanting to comfort her with a few words.

But no one from Divine End Peak knows how to comfort others, he doesn't know what to say.

Consort Hu looked at him blankly for a while, then suddenly threw herself into his arms, held him and cried bitterly.

Gu Qing was startled and wanted to break away but found that she couldn't. Only then did she realize that her Cultivation Realm cultivation level was much higher than her own.

Consort Hu just held him and cried all night, his clothes soaked with tears.

Other than that, nothing happens.

The next day, everything returned to normal.

She started to be Empress Dowager empress, and he started to supervise the country, but they still kept a distance, the relationship was very cold, and they never looked at each other.

One day ten years later, he reached the critical moment when Realm Breakthrough entered Wandering the Wilds. He came to the Palace Wall and looked at the natural cracks on it. Sword Heart gradually became calmer, but there was always something missing.

Suddenly, he felt a gaze falling on him, turned around and saw her looking at him through the window, with a mocking look on her face.

Because of that look, he Realm Breakthrough.

When she found out about this, she laughed happily and stared at him often from then on.

Of course, when no outsiders are present.

Even if Gu Qing looked back with some annoyance, she would not flinch and still looked at him with a smile, like a playful Little Girl.

Perhaps because he stared back in anger too many times, he was no longer afraid to look at her, and would stare at her side face when she wasn't paying attention.

It's really beautiful.

Everyone loves beauty. So many people in the world can stare at Master's face, why can't I?

After another ten years of this, something finally happened.

Different from the romantic stories in the book, nothing serious happened that day. No one among them was sick, and no one was seriously injured and was about to die. It was just an ordinary autumn day, maybe because the weather was so good, maybe because there was no one in the palace...

Well, it was because Water-Moon Convent had finished guarding that day, and Zhen Tao was going back to the East Sea with Convent Master, so he made a special trip out of the palace to see her off.

When he returned to the palace, he found that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

She drove all the Eunuchs Palace Maid away and drank wine in the palace. There were already more than a dozen empty wine jars on the ground.

Gu Qing walked over and snatched the wine jar from her hand.

She was very angry and stared into his eyes without saying a word, full of hatred.

Gu Qing is a little scared, but also a little happy.

She said she drank too much.

He asked if he wanted to go for a walk in the garden.

There was no one in the garden, and the grass between the flowers and trees was a little uneven. She had drunk too much wine, and she was unsteady and almost fell. She subconsciously grabbed his hand.

They held hands and walked in the deserted Imperial Garden for a long time. They didn't talk or do anything else. They just kept walking holding hands. When they got there, their foreheads were sweating and their palms were even more sweaty. But they didn't let go of their hands, not even once, and they held on tightly from beginning to end.
