Master Chengguan chose to conceal the truth last night, so he had to tell a lie this morning to continue the concealment, but how should he tell the lie?

"Still can't tell?" Master Chengguan hesitated to speak, which made Gu Xinglang a little anxious. ..

Yu Xiao: "Master, are you worried about scaring Xiao Gu?"

"How could I be scared?" Mr. Gu loved his wife, so he didn't yell at Yu Xiaoxiao.

Master Chengguan looked up at Her Royal Highness the Princess, and when he looked at Gu Xinglang again, he didn't know how to face this prince consort. The Master didn't blame Gu Xinglang for hurting him, but he was worried about what would happen to the princess in the future after Gu Xinglang was like this.

"Yes, is there something wrong with me?" Gu Xinglang asked Master Chengguan at this time. It must not be a good thing to always have gaps in memory.

Imperial Master Chengguan shook his head at Gu Xinglang and said, "I have told the Prince Consort that Mo Wen has the art of controlling people."

"Control people?" Yu Xiaoxiao shouted: "What does this mean?"

"To bewitch people and manipulate them to work for him," National Master Chengguan briefly explained to Yu Xiaoxiao what the art of controlling people meant.

Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't accept it. How could Mo Wen have such a skill? He could turn people into monsters and control them. How could there be such a cruel human being in this world?

Gu Xinglang said, "Is the Imperial Master saying that I am easy to be controlled?"

"You are injured and in poor health," Imperial Master Chengguan looked at Gu Xinglang and said, "Weak people are most likely to be controlled by Mo Wen."

Gu Xinglang and Yu Xiaoxiao looked at each other, neither of them understood how the art of controlling people worked. They felt that what Master Chengguan said made sense, but they also felt that something was wrong.

Master Chengguan closed his eyes and didn't want to make up any more lies, so he could only pretend to be dead.

After the young couple left Master Chengguan's bedroom, Tianxing was squatting beside the flower bed in the yard, busy with something.

Yu Xiaoxiao had nothing to say to Tianxing, so she didn't plan to pay attention to the Taoist priest. Gu Xinglang, however, called out to the Taoist priest, "Master."

Tianxing turned his head to look at the two of them, and after staring at Gu Xinglang for two seconds, the old Taoist's legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

Yu Xiao: "What's wrong with you? Are your legs weak because you didn't eat?"

The old Taoist nodded, still staring at Gu Xinglang.

Gu Xinglang looked down at his clothes and asked the old Taoist: "Master, is there anything wrong with me?"

"What's wrong with your throat?" the old Taoist pointed at Gu Xinglang's throat and asked.

Yu Xiao: "I was pinched by Mo Wen."

The old Taoist said "oh" twice, got up from the ground and ran out of the yard, saying to Yu Xiao: "I'm going to eat."

Yu Xiaoxiao watched the Taoist priest run out of the courtyard and said to Gu Xinglang, "I think he is afraid of me."

Gu Xinglang felt that this old Taoist was a little abnormal and said, "Don't you think he saw me as if he saw a ghost?"

"Hmm?" Yu Xiaoxiao looked down at her own Xiao Gu and said, "I also think he saw me as if he saw a ghost."

There is no need to continue this conversation.

Tianxing ran out of the courtyard at full speed, and then squatted down in a deserted place. Just now, when he looked at Xinglang, he found that the blood color behind the young man had become more intense, and it had reached the point where it covered the sky and the sun. Tianxing squatted on the ground, and in a panic, he calculated a hexagram, and finally got an unsolvable hexagram.

Oh, the Infinite Heavenly Venerable!

The old Taoist wanted to yell. He calculated a person's future and found out that there was no answer? Fate is determined by heaven, so how could there be no answer to a person's fate?

Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang stood far away and watched the old Taoist priest, who was squatting on the ground scratching his ears and cheeks, and patting his head, looking like a madman. Yu Xiaoxiao said to Gu Xinglang: "Is this the number one sorcerer in the world that you are talking about?"

Gu Xinglang said, "I don't really believe in numerology."

"I don't believe it either," Yu Xiaoxiao took out two candies from her pocket, stuffed one into Gu Xinglang, and put the other into her own mouth.

A gust of wind blew from south to north. When Gu Xinglang raised his hand to block the dust from his face, he heard the tinkling sound of wind chimes ringing in his ears. Gu Shao immediately looked in the direction where the sound came from. There was a string of wind chimes hanging around Yu Xiaoxiao's waist.

When Yu Xiaoxiao saw Gu Xinglang looking at the wind chime hanging around her waist, she said to Gu Xinglang, "You gave it to me."

Of course Gu Xinglang remembered that this was a gift he gave to Yu Xiaoxiao. He reached out and fiddled with the wind chimes. The smile on Gu Shao's face became a little stiff. He seemed to have heard the sound of bronze bells when he was in the Huguo Temple.

"Let's go out for dinner when Big Brother comes back," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Gu Xinglang after chewing the candy in her mouth. Mo Wen ran away with Fenglin, and Xiaoliu was also taken away by Jing Mo. Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't think of anything else waiting for her to do. What should she do if she has nothing to do? Then she can only eat, drink and have fun.

"Okay," Gu Xinglang withdrew his hand that was fiddling with the copper bell and responded to Yu Xiaoxiao.

Gu Xingnuo was standing in the imperial study. Emperor Xianzong had not slept all night and was nodding his head as he sat behind the imperial desk. Gu Xingnuo looked at the person standing next to Emperor Xianzong. Where Jingzhong had been standing, a young eunuch now stood. Young Master Gu had never seen this person before.

When the young supervisor saw Gu Xingnuo looking at him, he smiled at Young Master Gu. He was very respectful, but not humble, and not at all annoying.

"Your Majesty," Gu Xingnuo retracted his gaze and called Xianzong again.

Xianzong then looked up at Gu Xingnuo and asked, "Are your grandfather and the others gone?"

"Yes," Gu Xingnuo replied, "Grandfather asked me to thank His Majesty for his grace."

Xianzong waved his hand. What great favor? They were all ready to risk their lives for the country. "I called you here to interrogate Jingzhong and his gang," Xianzong said to Gu Xingnuo.

Young Master Gu hurriedly accepted the order and asked Emperor Xianzong, "Your Majesty, where is Prime Minister Zhao?"

"You interrogate Jingzhong first," Xianzong said, "Zhao Qiuming is injured anyway, I let him recover in the palace, and take care of his affairs slowly."

If he ran away, how could Young Master Gu let Zhao Qiu Ming go? When Young Master Gu heard that Emperor Xianzong wanted to let Prime Minister Zhao go temporarily, he became anxious and said, "Your Majesty, between Prime Minister Zhao and the Eternal Life Temple..."

"Alright, alright," Xianzong didn't let Gu Xingnuo finish his words, and said, "Yan Ruo, young people should look at things in the long term. What are we going to do now? Put aside anything that is not related to this."

Gu Xingnuo first wanted to ask, are Jingzhong and his gang also related to the war? Then Young Master Gu remembered that the matter of Jingzhong and his gang was related to the safety of Emperor Xianzong, and it must be thoroughly investigated.

"If Xinglang is well, you can take the boy with you," Xianzong said, "It's time for him to follow you. Serving in the court is not the same as fighting in a war. You have to teach the boy this." It is impossible to reform his daughter. Xianzong can only put his hope on Gu Xinglang. As long as this son-in-law is smart and capable, his daughter will have a better life in the future.
