At the Marquis Xuan's Mansion, Gu Huaifeng hadn't seen Tang Chuying for some time. He was a little surprised when he saw her again. Not only had Tang Chuying lost a lot of weight, but the dark circles under her eyes could also be seen.
But if you think about it, you can understand it. She has been through a lot during this period. Her family has fallen into decline, her father was beheaded, and she has no one to rely on. No, Tang Chuying still has the support of the King of Nanyang.
Thinking of this, Gu Huaifeng felt that Tang Chuying was still valuable to him. He could use her relationship with King Nanyang to help him become his wife!
Tang Chuying naturally knew what Gu Huaifeng was thinking, and also saw the calculation in Gu Huaifeng's eyes. Fortunately, she was not sincere about Gu Huaifeng, but wanted to use Gu Huaifeng to humiliate Tang Chuyao.
Thinking of her plan, Tang Chuying hurriedly told Gu Huaifeng her future purpose. When Gu Huaifeng heard that he would die at the hands of Gu Qingchen in the near future, he was stunned for a moment and forgot to react.
He thought Tang Chuying was crazy and what she said were all crazy talk, but when he heard Tang Chuying talking about how she helped King Rui achieve great things, he was somewhat shocked. After all, his relationship with King Rui was known by his father, so he was somewhat skeptical about what Tang Chuying said.
One thing is certain, that is, Gu Qingchen's feelings for Tang Chuyao are real whether in dreams or in reality!
From Tang Chuying's tone, it seems that she still doesn't know that Tang Chuyao has become Wanyan Chuyao, the princess of the Liao Dynasty.
However, Gu Huaifeng had no intention of telling Tang Chuying. When he heard about Tang Chuying's plan, he also agreed!
He regretted letting Wanyan Chuyao go as soon as he came. If he had known that Wanyan Chuyao was so beautiful that she could overwhelm the whole country, he would never have been willing to cancel the engagement no matter what!
As a result, he was tricked by Gu Qingchen!
The two discussed for a long time before Tang Chuying left Xuanhou Mansion. Before leaving, she tactfully indicated that she hoped Gu Huaifeng could give her some silver for her survival. Gu Huaifeng didn't want to give it at first, so his monthly salary was reduced. However, in order to appease Tang Chuying, he gritted his teeth and gave her ten taels of silver.
Tang Chuying took the silver and left with satisfaction. Although the amount was not much, it was better than nothing!
The weather after the Mid-Autumn Festival became cooler day by day. The next morning, the sun was shining brightly. A carriage from the General's Mansion slowly drove out and headed towards the suburbs of Beijing...
The carriage stopped at the foot of a mountain, and Du Juan helped Wanyan Chuyao get off the carriage.
Tang Chuying had been waiting nearby. Seeing the gorgeous carriage in the general's mansion, a hint of jealousy flashed through her eyes. Then she stepped forward respectfully, "Sister, you're here!"
"Halfway up the mountain is Baishan Temple. Let's go to the temple and worship the Buddha!"
Wanyan Chuyao ignored Tang Chuying and walked towards the middle of the mountain.
Tang Chuying followed behind him, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison, and said, "I'll let you be proud for a while."
The two of them started to climb the mountain one after the other, and after walking for about half an hour they arrived at the gate of the temple.
Before entering the temple gate, the smell of burning incense wafted out, and Wanyan Chuyao and Du Juan stepped into the temple gate.
When you step into the temple, you will see a ground paved with bluestones. The traces of time have left mottled marks on the stone slabs, and some mosses have grown in the gaps between the stone slabs, adding a bit of ancient atmosphere.
The ground is clean and tidy, and it is obvious that it is cleaned regularly. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, forming patches of light, giving a sense of tranquility and peace. The monks in the temple walk on this ground, their steps are light and steady, as if they are integrated with this land.
In the center of the temple, there is a huge round stone slab with exquisite patterns carved on it. These patterns may be the history of the temple or the teachings of Buddhism. Around the stone slab, there are some cushions for believers to worship and pray.
Tang Chuying walked to Wanyan Chuyao and said, "Sister, let's go to the palace and ask for a talisman!"
Wanyan Chuyao did not refuse and went to the Main Hall with Tang Chuying.
Tang Chuying was a little surprised. She could understand that Tang Chuyao was quiet and had a stern expression today, but why didn't she speak?
The second one stepped into the main hall, knelt on the cushion, and respectfully worshipped the Bodhisattva. At this moment, a woman suddenly rushed into the hall and ran directly to Wanyan Chuyao, "Miss, please save me!"
Wanyan Chuyao looked at the woman. Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were a little messy, she was sweating, her breathing was rapid, and her little face was full of fear.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Wanyan Chuyao asked.
Tang Chuying heard Wanyan Chuyao's voice and felt relieved when she found nothing unusual.
"Miss, I met a bad guy who wants to catch me, please save me!"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, she heard footsteps outside, and then several big men came in. They were all tall and strong.
Wanyan Chuyao suddenly felt a little dizzy. She shook her head and looked at a few people.
The leading man stepped forward and said, "Miss, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. This is our master's concubine who ran away secretly. We need to take her back!"
The woman grabbed Wanyan Chuyao's sleeve tightly and refused to let go. There was a faint fragrance on the woman's body, which kept coming into Wanyan Chuyao's nose.
Wanyan Chuyao felt even more dizzy and she tried to hold on.
The leading man continued, "If you don't believe me, we have brought Aunt Lian's indenture contract."
"This is not the place to talk. Miss, can you please excuse me for a moment?"
After the sturdy men finished speaking, they turned around and left the hall. Wanyan Chuyao felt dizzy and followed the group of people out of the hall and walked towards the backyard of the temple.
This was an independent courtyard. A group of people surrounded Wanyan Chuyao and the woman. The leading man took out an envelope from his sleeve and handed it to Wanyan Chuyao.
Wanyan Chuyao took the envelope and was about to open it when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck and then lost consciousness...
Gu Huaifeng came in from the back door at this time, and saw Wanyan Chuyao lying on the bed with a greedy look.
Wanyan Chuyao will soon become his wife, and the General's Mansion and the Three Princes' Mansion behind her will become his forces!
Tang Chuying said with a hint of sarcasm, "Hurry up, I'll bring her here later!"
Gu Huaifeng didn't even look up at her. Tang Chuying snorted coldly and left.
Tang Chuying just walked out of the courtyard gate, and when she looked up, she saw a figure. Her pupils dilated, she saw Tang Chuyao!
Who is that in there?
It's over! Tang Chuyao saw through their plan, and the scenes in the nightmare rushed into her mind. She was about to open her mouth to shout when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her jaw. Her jaw was removed by Wanyan Chuyao.
Tang Chuying watched helplessly as she was taken to a room by Wanyan Chuyao. In this room, several big men were lying all over the place.
A closer look revealed that the big men had lost their breath, and their faces were deathly pale. Tang Chuying was so scared that she wanted to leave, but was slapped to the ground by Wanyan Chuyao.
