Chapter 151 Foolish or Not
Chu Jingyan was also stunned: "You didn't say anything?"
"That's natural."
"I was completely devastated at that time. I didn't even want to see people or talk to them. There's no greater sorrow than a broken heart, so how could I possibly lose my temper?"
Chu Jingyan's expression turned serious: "You really didn't say anything?"
"No, anyway, I remember I didn't say a word when you came to see me."
Chu Jingyan remembered that when he first came to see his fourth brother, he was very irritable, smashing everything in sight and showing no respect to anyone, including his father.
He thought of Gu Linglong's words. His father might be a black mudfish now. Could it be that the black mudfish originally chose his fourth brother, but his fourth brother's legs failed, so he chose his father instead?
And why do the third and fifth brothers have similar illnesses? Why are they similar? What's the real story behind this?
Chu Jingyan nodded: "Perhaps I'm mistaken. Let's toast Third Brother and Fifth Brother."
"it is good"
The two poured the fine wine they had filled onto the ground. The Fourth Prince sighed softly, "Third Brother, Fifth Brother, today I am getting married. I invited you to drink a cup of wedding wine. It's such a pity that you are no longer here..."
Chu Jingyan patted the Fourth Prince on the shoulder: "Maybe your leg is healed because their spirits in heaven are protecting you."
Chu Jingyan's words of comfort only made the Fourth Prince more sorrowful: "If I could exchange my leg for theirs, I would rather my leg never healed."
Chu Jingyan rubbed his nose. If Gu Linglong heard you say that, she'd beat someone up.
Don't overthink it, today is your wedding day.
"Um"
The fourth prince composed himself: "Alright, I won't keep you company any longer. I'm going to be with my queen."
The door was pushed open with a creaky sound.
Han Yun'er watched as the black patterned boots slowly approached. She pursed her lips and clenched her handkerchief.
The fourth prince took a deep breath, picked up the wedding pole, and lifted the veil. The woman in front of him was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which made her cheeks flushed. Her hands were tightly clasped in front of her abdomen.
"princess"
Han Yun'er's cheeks flushed even more, and she murmured an "Mmm".
The fourth prince handed her the wine of love, and the two of them drank the cup of wine together, their arms entwined.
"are you hungry?"
Han Yun'er shook her head: "I'm not hungry. Did you forget? You asked the nanny to bring me some good food."
"Hmm," the fourth prince said, his hands clenched tightly on his knees.
"Oh, right, there's something very important."
The fourth prince's face flushed red: "Yes, I'm ready."
"Then I'll cut it."
"Hmm, hmm? Cut?"
The fourth prince turned around and saw Han Yun'er holding a pair of scissors towards him.
What are you doing with those scissors?
"Didn't you say you were ready? Then I'll start cutting!"
"Get a haircut?"
Han Yun'er nodded matter-of-factly: "What else?"
The fourth prince touched his nose: "I'll do it."
The Fourth Prince took Han Yun'er's scissors and cut off a section of his own hair, then cut off a section of Han Yun'er's hair. He tied the two sections of hair into a love knot and solemnly placed them in the box.
It symbolizes that a couple who have tied their hair together will be loving and trusting of each other.
Han Yun'er looked up at him: "I've heard you say in the letter that the fourth young lady of the Gu family is very cute."
"Hmm, haven't you seen it before?"
"Would you like to have a child like Linglong?"
"You think someone will just give it to you if you ask?"
The Fourth Prince said earnestly, "Then I'll ask Brother Yu'an tomorrow if he can give me Linglong."
"Are you stupid?" Han Yun'er grabbed the Fourth Prince and threw him onto the bed, then flipped over and straddled him.
"Your leg isn't healed yet, let me do it."
The fourth prince laughed: "I wouldn't dare trouble the princess."
With a single effort, the fourth prince flipped the two of them over.
The bed curtains were drawn, and the candlelight emitted a fragrant aroma that rippled through the room...
……
After the Fourth Prince left, Chu Jingyan refilled his wine cup and spilled it on the ground: "Third Brother, Fifth Brother, if there's anything suspicious about your deaths, could you give me some pointers?"
Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the oil lamp flame in the corner flickered and swayed like a fire snake.
"Third Brother, Fifth Brother, is that you?"
The flames crackled and popped as they burned the cotton wick, as if in response to something.
Chu Jingyan stared at the flames for a long time, then muttered to himself, "I will definitely find out the truth."
Chu Jingyan offered two more toasts before leaving, though he had found out the truth but had no clue whatsoever.
He already felt guilty for dragging his fellow disciples down in his previous life, and he couldn't let them down again in this life.
A gentle night breeze blew, and the winter wind felt like ice spikes pricking his face. Unconsciously, he walked to the gate of the Minister's residence.
He looked up at the plaque of the Minister's residence and muttered to himself, "Linglong, do you know the truth?"
"If you don't know what to do, Father can't deal with ordinary evil spirits and heretics, and I don't want to implicate my fellow disciples anymore."
As Chu Jingyan spoke, he actually sat down by a stone pillar in the Minister's residence.
Gu Linglong naturally couldn't answer him; she was currently fast asleep, clutching her blanket.
In her dream, Gu Linglong, still in tiger form, was happily munching on a chicken leg. [Mmm, the chicken leg smells so good, baa baa!]
Behind her were four thatched houses, and she also had a separate room where the sheets, blankets, and flowers on the desk were all pink.
She had previously disliked the color, but after the person next to her wearing a straw hat said that girls all liked pink, she stopped disliking it.
In the dream, the man was weaving a straw hat while talking to Gu Linglong.
"Once I finish weaving this straw hat, you won't be afraid of getting sunburned when you go into the mountains to catch butterflies. The winter sun is alright, but the summer sun is too strong. Girls need to take good care of their facial skin, you know?"
The man placed a straw hat adorned with fresh flowers on Gu Linglong's head and slung a small bag over her shoulder, filled with food and water.
He stood up and patted her on the shoulder: "Let's go, I'll teach you the Kunlun Sword Technique today."
The man led Gu Linglong to a mountain she had never been to before and took out a wooden sword.
"Watch closely. Now feel the sword intent. After you take human form, you'll be even more adept at practicing it."
The man's movements were fluid and graceful; when he swung his wooden sword, a sound could be heard, demonstrating that his swordsmanship was exceptional and beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"Have you mastered it?"
Gu Linglong nodded and began practicing swordsmanship with her tiger-like body. She grabbed a wooden stick and started wildly swinging it on the ground.
The man nodded repeatedly.
"Good, very good, excellent."
After finishing her practice, Gu Linglong obediently walked to the man's side, wagging her tail.
The man squatted down and patted Gu Linglong's head: "Do you want your teacher to praise you?"
Gu Linglong nodded.
"You're amazing. It's only a matter of time before you transform into human form, and you're the most talented person I've ever met."
Gu Linglong smiled and spun around several times.
"So, Linglong, you can't live with me anymore. You're a divine beast, and you can better transform into human form in the deep mountains. So let's part ways here."
Gu Linglong: "?"
You didn't say that when you saved me back then! You said you'd stay with me, but you're a liar.
"I don't want to transform anymore, please don't send me away!" Gu Linglong couldn't speak yet, and she frantically dug at the ground.
