Gu Zhizhuo was reborn. It wasn't until after her death that she realized she was the supporting female character in an old novel, and the female lead was her cousin, Ji Nankao.
The book s...
Chapter 69 Chapter 69 is the only genuine version...
Wow!
All the young men were very excited.
"Zheng Si, go knock on the door."
In this great capital, even the most dandy young men had to form cliques. Zhou Liulang and his friends never hung out with Xie Sheng, the third son of the Jin Wang family. Qin Luo, on the other hand, had always liked to follow Xie Sheng, but after the Jing'an Marquis's hereditary title was taken away, Qin Luo could no longer join their group.
In the past, with Gu Yican around, Xie Sheng had kept his distance from them. Even though Gu Yican spent more than half the year in Northern Xinjiang, Xie Sheng didn't dare to provoke them. But three months ago, after Gu Yican was assigned to suppress bandits, Xie Sheng had somehow become more aggressive, like a salted fish turning over a new leaf, and he would always cause trouble for them.
He would steal the most beautiful woman, the best horse, the hunting ground, and even the pheasant to buy it.
A few days ago, Zheng Si heard that there was a very charming Qingyi, so he booked a theater and invited them to watch a play. As a result, Xie Sheng came with a group of people and insisted that they give up the theater.
The two sides started fighting.
Xie Sheng had a large number of people and Zheng Si and his men were defeated.
After all, losing meant leaving the theater, cursing, and hurling some harsh words. For them, a fight, even if they got bruised and battered, was no big deal. If they weren't as skilled, they could just fight back next time.
Who would have thought that Xie Sheng would go crazy and order people to strip Zheng Si and the others and throw them out. He also found a fortune teller and told everyone that they were possessed by evil spirits and took off their clothes in public. He also chanted spells and performed rituals on them, attracting a crowd of onlookers.
Even a playboy needs some dignity!
As soon as Gu Yican came back, they ran to complain.
Gu Yican did not refuse and said he would take them to get the place back.
Brother Can is his real brother all his life! Half of Zheng Silang's face was still swollen, and he pounded on the door of Prince Jin's Mansion with his fists.
As soon as the corner door opened a crack, Zheng Si kicked it open with a familiar kick, turned around and smiled brightly, "Brother Can, you go first."
Gu Zhizhuo: “…”
She didn't play with her brother's friends before. So they usually played breaking and entering?
Looking at his skilled posture, he must have done this a lot.
"Walk!"
Gu Yican held his head high and stepped into the mansion of Prince Jin.
"Where does that Xie Sheng kid live?"
"Brother Chan, I know. This way."
Zheng Si led the way diligently.
Seven or eight young men in gorgeous clothes rushed in together, each holding a horse whip in their hands. Zhou Liulang brought a wooden barrel. No one knew what was in the barrel, but some of it spilled out and splashed on the ground. It seemed to be, blood?
The doorman quickly called the guards and asked someone to report to the third young master.
The servants were running around, the waiters couldn't stop them, and the guards didn't dare to use any force, for fear of hurting some young master and losing their own lives.
Some guards also recognized Zheng Silang. Thinking about what happened a few days ago, they understood why the other party came.
They had heard of this kind of playboy coming to the mansion to cause trouble before, but no one had ever dared to go to the Prince of Jin's mansion!
Zheng Si led them into Xie Sheng's yard as if he knew the place well.
He would whip anyone who dared to stop him.
He had wanted to fight back earlier, but he was worried that there were too many people in the Prince Jin's Mansion, and it would be too embarrassing if he didn't get what he wanted. Now, following Brother Can, he feels safe.
"Brother Chan, this is it!"
He stared at Gu Yican with shining eyes.
"I've asked around. Xie Sheng hasn't left the house since he came back from Ruanxianglou early this morning. He must still be sleeping now."
"Walk."
Gu Yican walked in front, her high ponytail swaying from side to side with his movements.
He swung the horsewhip in one hand and held his sister's hand with the other, walking out with an arrogant attitude.
The maids sweeping the yard were all terrified and screamed in fear. The group of playboys went straight to the main house without looking around, and from a distance they could hear the sounds of piano, singing and giggles mixed together.
Zheng Si kicked the door open, and there was a burst of screams. The singers and maids covered their faces and scattered.
Xie Sheng leaned against the Arhat bed, his clothes half-open, revealing a large area of skin on his chest.
He was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise: "Zheng Jiuguang, who let you in?"
He was surrounded by many beautiful women, but now they all dispersed. They didn't know who had come and stood aside with panic on their faces.
"I'm here to see Xie Sheng today, so don't block my way."
Zheng Si didn't even glance at them. He dragged Xie Sheng out and threw him into the courtyard.
After throwing it, he thought of something and quickly pulled Xie Sheng's clothes tightly.
"Zheng Si, how dare you!"
Xie Sheng felt pain and immediately became furious. He looked up and found that there were many more people in his yard. He recognized the leader at a glance.
"Gu Yican. Why are you still alive?!"
He blurted out, his tone full of disbelief.
Gu Zhizhuo raised his eyebrows. In his previous life, Gu Yican had indeed never returned after this bandit suppression mission.
Gu Yican sneered and said, "Even if you reincarnate a hundred times, this prince will still be alive."
"Go, fight back the way he hits you."
Zheng Silang's fist had been itching for a long time. He pinched his fingers and slapped him.
The few people who were beaten in the theater at that time could no longer hold back. They rushed forward and started punching and kicking.
Xie Sheng held his head in his hands and angrily said, "How dare you!?"
"Thank you, San." Gu Yican crossed his arms and said nonchalantly, "Fighting is one thing, but what's the point of calling a group of guards to help? Since you don't understand, this prince will teach you a lesson."
"That's right." Zheng Si became more and more annoyed as he spoke. "You call for guards when you can't beat them. How shameless!"
All of them came from the most prestigious mansions in the capital and had similar status.
When they started fighting, no one could sue anyone else, but Xie Sheng didn't follow the rules and brought a dozen guards to surround them and beat them up.
Zheng Si was distracted and was counterattacked by Xie Sheng. He was punched and the other side of his face was swollen.
Zhou Liulang, who was watching the fun, booed loudly.
Zheng Si was furious, and Mo Jiu came up and grabbed Xie Sheng's waist, knocking him to the ground.
Zheng Si screamed and rushed forward. Without any fancy hand-to-hand combat, he beat Xie Sheng so hard that he screamed in pain.
The guards also arrived one after another, shouting "Third Young Master" and rushing forward.
Gu Yican didn't care how Zheng Si and Xie Sheng fought, but he didn't allow anyone to interfere. He knocked the guards who rushed over to him to the ground with just three or two punches, and only screams of pain could be heard all around.
"Bring it here."
As soon as Gu Yican stretched out his hand, Zhou Liulang quickly took out a large stack of yellow paper from his cloth bag.
Gu Yican took one, looked it over and over, and asked, "Didn't I ask you to buy a talisman?"
"Brother Can, the shop that sells yellow paper said they don't draw talismans for people. So, I bought some yellow paper. Brother Can, I even asked the shopkeeper to cut it for me."
He asked eagerly, "Do you want me to go to the Taoist temple and kidnap a Taoist priest to paint for us?"
Gu Zhizhuo: "..." Wait, what did she hear? Zhou Liulang said "tie up", right?
After all, she is a Taoist, so she should avoid doing things that will bring divine punishment.
"I can."
Gu Zhizhuo pointed at himself and said with a smile.
Forehead?
"I can!"
"Really good at it!"
"It couldn't be more true!"
She fished out two long hairbands from her sleeve pocket, tied her cuffs neatly, and asked excitedly, "Where's the cinnabar?"
"Cinnabar, the shopkeeper said it was bought by someone two days ago. I don't know which bastard did it." Zhou Liulang said angrily.
Gu Zhizhuo remained calm: "I bought it."
Zhou Liulang's expression changed instantly, and he smiled brightly: "So it was my sister who bought it. Sister, next time you need cinnabar, remember to tell me and I'll buy it for you. Why do you have to go out yourself?"
Zhou Liulang continued, "That shopkeeper has no taste. He only stocked this much cinnabar. No wonder his business isn't big!"
"Brother Can, I heard that chicken blood is the same, so I went to the kitchen of Tianxianglou and got a bucket."
What a mess!
Gu Yican didn't understand and looked at his sister: "Will it work?"
"Brother Can, if that doesn't work, I'll just go and tie up a little Taoist priest."
Gu Zhizhuo: “…”
He always comes up with such dangerous and stupid ideas. Why doesn't he get struck by lightning to warn him?
"Leave it there."
Zhou Liulang felt as if he had been pardoned, and quickly carried the bucket of chicken blood over.
Gu Yican asked her, "Where should I write it?"
"Just the ground will do."
Gu Yican glanced at him and said, "Why are you standing there?"
Those who were busy beating others continued to beat them, while those who had nothing to do immediately gathered around to watch the fun and helped spread the yellow paper on the ground. Zhou Liulang enthusiastically handed Gu Zhizhuo a pen, saying that he had specially asked the shopkeeper to buy it for him.
Gu Zhizhuo lifted her skirt and sat on the ground.
She dipped some chicken blood on the talisman brush, and with the brush moving like a dragon, she drew a talisman in a short while.
The runes above have no meaning.
She didn't concentrate and calm down, so the talisman she drew was invalid, just like a doodle.
Talismans like the Zhuyin Mantra were too vicious and would involve karma. Not only did she not know how to use them, but even if she did, she wouldn't use them. As for the others, the peace charms, the tranquility charms, etc... forget it, she wasn't that kind-hearted.
So, just draw whatever you want.
The result of his random scribbles was that Gu Zhizhuo was extremely fast. In less than a cup of tea, he had finished more than a hundred drawings.
She rubbed her sore arms and felt very satisfied.
Looking again, the ground around was covered with strange blood.
The tip of the brush was also red, and even her fingertips were accidentally stained with blood. Around her were spread out talismans (fake), not yet fully dried, arranged in a circle. At first glance, she looked like she was performing a very evil ritual.
Gu Zhizhuo always felt that if his master saw this scene, he would definitely not want her anymore.
Gu Zhizhuo: “…”
She was so panicked, what should she do? She could still save the situation.
"Thank you for your hard work, sister!"
Zheng Silang said this sweetly and took a handful.
Xie Sheng had been completely beaten down, crying and begging for mercy.
Mo Jiu and the others held down his hands and feet, and Zheng Silang slapped the two pieces on his face twice.
Gu Yican explained to his sister, "Just a few days ago, Xie Sheng had Zheng Si and the others stripped naked. He even found a fake Taoist priest who insisted that Zheng Si and the others were possessed by evil spirits. He then poured boy's urine and black dog blood on them."
No wonder. Xie Sheng really deserved it.
Zheng Si and his men had a great time beating each other, and all the servants in the yard were stunned with fear.
No one had ever dared to come to the door so openly. Seeing that all the guards were knocked to the ground, Xie Sheng's servant had to call for more guards. He was so scared that he kept looking outside, wondering why the prince hadn't come back yet.
"The prince is back!"
Finally waited for it!
The servant breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at the third young master who was being pressed to the ground and having talismans applied to him, then ran out like the wind.
Gu Yican just glanced at him and snorted coldly.
The servant ran out of breath and reached the outer ceremonial gate, shouting from afar.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Prince Jin, who had just stepped into the room, looked over unhappily and recognized that this was his son's personal servant.
"What's going on?"
Prince Jin was extremely irritable.
The Gu family's incident at court had completely humiliated the Prince of Jin. He could even imagine how the Duke of Wei would mock him behind his back. They all said he'd taken all the credit from Gu Taotao, but Gu Taotao was only good at fighting. Without him, how could the peace treaty with Daliang have been signed so smoothly?
And no one mentions all this.
He left the city right after court and hasn't even sat down yet. What happened?!
The servant cried out with tears in his eyes, "Your Majesty! The Third Young Master has been beaten."
Prince Jin said with a headache, "I told him not to go out and cause trouble all the time, but he just wouldn't listen."
"Your Highness, it was the Prince of Zhenguo who brought some men to our house and beat up the Third Young Master." The servant finished his words in one breath. "No one could stop them. The Third Young Master was beaten black and blue."
Thinking of the miserable appearance of his master, the servant almost burst into tears.
"I dare not go to the princess, and the second young master is not here."
Prince Jin was stunned, unable to believe his ears. He repeated, "It's the Duke of Zhenguo, the prince, Gu Yican?"
"Yes, yes. Your Highness, please go and have a look. The Third Young Master is nearly beaten to death by them."
"How can this be!" Prince Jin gritted his teeth. "The Gu family is simply going too far."
First, he was embarrassed by the situation.
Now they are causing trouble in his palace.
Is this bullying him addictive?! A fire surged wildly in the Prince of Jin's chest, all the way to his head, burning it.
"Call all the guards in the mansion."
He kept a stern face and walked briskly towards Xie Sheng's yard after he finished speaking.
While still in front of the courtyard gate, a strong smell of blood was blown into his nostrils by the wind, and King Jin's legs suddenly went weak.
His attendant hurriedly supported him and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Under the Emperor's feet, Prince Gu would definitely not dare to harm the Third Young Master's life."
Yes, that’s right.
No matter how vicious Gu Yican is, he wouldn't go on a killing spree in his house, right?
Facing the increasingly strong smell of blood, Prince Jin gritted his teeth and pushed open the courtyard door with a bang. The dazzling red color reflected in his pupils, mixed with the pungent smell of blood. Prince Jin choked and almost couldn't catch his breath, and his whole body was staggering.
Everywhere he looked was covered in talismans. Yellow talisman paper and blood-red runes intertwined and merged before his eyes. They were plastered all over the flower walls, on the hanging flower gates, on the fences, on the eaves, up and down. There were at least a hundred of them.
Prince Jin suddenly felt a chilling wind blowing all around him.
He couldn't help but think of that day.
He quietly brought Gu Taotao's body to Shangxu Temple, and Master Shangfeng set up a talisman formation and pasted talismans all over the hall.
Master Shangfeng said that the Zhuyin spell requires the ashes of the cursed person to be mixed with cinnabar.
Master Shangfeng gave him a sword and told him to chop off Gu Taotao's head and burn his body...
"ah!
A guard screamed and was kicked over, falling at his feet.
Prince Jin's mind was suddenly pulled away from his memories. He looked at the talismans pasted all over the yard and couldn't help but shudder.
“Who, who did it!”
King Jin screamed in shock.
"My prince."
Gu Yican stepped on a guard and crossed his arms.
Around him, the guards staggered to and fro, crying out in pain. "Father, Father..."
Xie Sheng, who had several talismans stuck on his face, felt relieved when he finally arrived, and started crying and screaming.
"Your Majesty."
Zheng Si and the others greeted him one after another, not at all afraid. Fighting was not something they had never fought before.
“You, you, you…”
Prince Jin pointed at Gu Yican and gnashed his teeth in anger: "Gu Yican, how dare you come to my palace to cause trouble? Believe it or not, I will report you right now.
Participate? Zhou Liulang was puzzled. Should he be involved in a fight?
Gu Yican kicked the guard away and walked towards King Jin. The sound of his military boots stepping on the ground brought a great sense of oppression.
Gu Yican walked in front of King Jin, raised the corners of his eyes, and opened the corners of his mouth in a smile.
Prince Jin's head buzzed, and then Gu Yican's fist hit him in the face.
Bang!
Although the King of Jin had also practiced martial arts since childhood, he was different from Gu Yican, who had fought on the battlefield for a long time. Even at a young age, Gu Yican could easily draw a three-stone bow.
The punch was so fast and heavy that King Jin had no way of dodging it.
He was knocked to the ground, and Gu Yican rushed over and punched him twice in a row, each punch hitting him hard.
Wow.
The eyes of several young men lit up. Brother Can is Brother Can. He even dares to fight King Jin!
"You kid."
Zheng Si slapped Xie Sheng on the cheek and said disdainfully, "Why are you still calling me dad when you can't beat me? Do you have any shame? Last time you beat me like that, I didn't even call me mom."
"Wow!"
There was another whistle.
Zheng Si raised his eyes excitedly,
Gu Yican was pressing his knee against Prince Jin's lower abdomen. Prince Jin's cheeks were swollen and murderous intent was revealed in his eyes.
Gu Yican leaned down and said condescendingly, "Your Highness, these punches are to thank you for taking care of my father. Don't worry, when you die, I promise to buy more talismans and cover your coffin inside and out."
He patted Prince Jin's cheek with his hand and said with a half-smile, "Do you understand, Your Majesty?"
Prince Jin: “…”
Prince Jin was almost out of breath, and hatred filled his eyes.
In the past, the Prince of Jin's Mansion was an inconspicuous royal family residence in the capital. He spent half his life turning the Prince of Jin's Mansion into a Prince's Mansion.
He can finally be superior to others and have the final say.
Unexpectedly, after a misstep, even a junior could run rampant in his palace and be so presumptuous.
Gu Zhizhuo squatted beside Prince Jin, looked at the bloodstain at the corner of his mouth, and sighed, "Prince, I've already told you to be careful of bloody disasters, why didn't you listen?" She snapped her fingers, "How about this, I'll tell you a fortune."
Gu Zhizhuo took out a golden compass from his sleeve pocket, held it in his hand properly, and gently moved his fingers on the inner circle, and the magnetic needle of Tianchi began to spin.
Within three breaths, the vibrating magnetic needle suddenly stopped, as if pulled by an unknown force.
