Prince Duan was silent for a long time, his eyes flickering slightly under the candlelight.
The Great Qi was rich. If it had not been attacked by everyone at that time, coupled with the vicious witchcraft in the Western Regions, it would have been impossible for the country to be destroyed. There were countless treasures here. It is said that when the country was destroyed, the emperor of the time hid all the treasures in one place.
That is wealth that rivals a country.
This Liu Yanqiu might know where it is.
If one day Da Qi were to be re-established, it wouldn't be impossible for Kiyomori to be the sole empress...
It's much better than finding an unlearned prince consort in Da Qi.
His silence filled the air with solemnity.
"But, now that Kiyomori is a princess, her status is no longer something we can control. Besides, you signed the marriage certificate for her without her permission. What if she disagrees..."
"What if I would rather die than marry?"
Based on Gu Qingsheng's previous personality, it is very likely that he would do such a thing.
"I have already asked Qingsheng last time..."
Gu Fengnan remembered Gu Qingsheng's answer when he asked him about his opinion of Liu Yanqiu last time.
"It seems that Qingsheng also has a good impression of Liu Yanqiu. The situation that father described should not happen..."
"I just thought about it carefully. Qingsheng is now a princess. Once Da Qi is established, this marriage certificate will also bring the two countries closer together. The emperor should not have any other ideas."
"But if we do this..."
Having said this, Prince Duan fell silent.
If you do this, it will still be a marriage relationship and the fate will be exactly the same.
If the two countries go to war in the future, Gu Qingsheng will be in danger.
Prince Duan seemed to be lost in a very distant memory, and he looked a little depressed.
"At that time, your mother's wish was not for Qingsheng to have great abilities. As long as she grew up healthy, that was more important than anything else."
"Forget it."
Waving hands tiredly
"Her happiness is more important than anything else. If she likes it, then let her be. If she doesn't like it, there's no point in forcing her."
…
"Xueyi, you've done a great job this time."
After lighting the candle, Gu Qingsheng extinguished the match in his hand.
"The Emperor took the initiative to mention your name to me, asking me to reward you well."
Zheng Xueyi sat opposite Gu Qingsheng, her eyes gradually brightening with the firelight, because her face seemed to have some traces of running around for a long time.
"No need for rewards, our village..."
"Of course I know."
Gu Qingsheng said.
"It is for this reason that I mentioned the matter of your village to the Emperor. He takes it very seriously and will probably issue an order to give you a solution soon."
Zheng Xueyi's heart sank. After so long, she was finally getting closer to her goal.
"But this time we were able to succeed so quickly thanks to Su Huai. Otherwise, I would never have thought that they would put those people in the tunnel."
"These people from the Western Regions have always been ruthless and vicious. Now that they are together, even I am surprised."
Gu Qingsheng sighed. Among those who were hurt today, there were many children.
Even if Miao Lanlan knew witchcraft, there was no way to restore these people to their original state. This might be a lifelong problem and the root of the disease.
The rest of these people's lives are ruined.
"Actually, I still want to ask."
After thinking for a long time, Zheng Xueyi said
"How can you be so sure that your arrow will hit Leiman? As far as I know, you haven't learned archery."
Her suspicious tone made Gu Qingsheng raise his eyes. The cloisonné jade bracelet on his hand sparkled, and then he lowered his eyes like hers.
"This... is a secret."
After Zheng Xueyi left, Gu Qingsheng blew out the lamp on the table.
The piercing pain during the martial arts test came back again.
She covered her heart and pursed her lips.
Although I have prepared myself for this illness to continue to plague me, when it really comes, I still can't help but feel the extreme pain.
"Luckily, Leiman is dead. Otherwise, if he had used some tricks again, it would have been difficult to deal with."
"You've suffered a lot this time. The poisonous insect is deep in your heart. To extract the blood from your heart, it's more painful than having your heart ripped out."
Today's arrow was smeared with blood from Gu Qingsheng's heart, and that blood contained Leiman's poisonous insect.
At the same time, she also used another kind of Gu on the arrow, which was a tracking Gu, tracking the owner of the Gu on the arrow.
That's why he could shoot Lehman so accurately.
She coughed and a mouthful of blood came out
"It's okay. It's always good to deal with him."
"never mind."
Get up slowly
"I can't sleep, let's go out for a walk."
The dark clouds outside have not yet dispersed, and tonight's night is darker than usual.
She put on her cloak and said to Bai Lu who was rubbing her eyes and about to get up.
"I'll walk around by myself, and you go to sleep."
As soon as I stepped out of the door, I suddenly heard a very low struggle and scream in the west room.
Because of the five senses Gu, her hearing is much sharper now, and she immediately ran towards the west room.
The yard was pitch black, and the door to the west room was wide open. From Gu Qingsheng's position, he could just see the maid inside being knocked unconscious.
A man in black in the room saw Gu Qingsheng coming and suddenly became panicked. He left his maid behind and ran out through the window, seeming to be holding something in his hand.
She quickly ran to the maid, checked her breath to make sure nothing was wrong, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Because it was too dark, Gu Qingsheng couldn't see the maid's face clearly, so he just asked
"Are you okay?"
"Mother... Mother's relics! Mother's relics..."
As she spoke, the girl slowly shed a line of tears from the darkness and pointed to the window.
"Princess... No, Princess, please help me... Help me find my mother's belongings..."
With a weak voice, Gu Qingsheng pursed his lips and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go find it."
Following the steps of the man in black, Gu Qingsheng walked out the door without noticing that after she left, the maid's eyes flashed and she slowly stood up.
I followed him all the way to the street. I don't know what was on the soles of the black-clad man's feet, but he was moving very fast. However, his footprints were always very obvious.
Fortunately, Gu Qingsheng was able to keep up. Miao Lanlan looked at Gu Qingsheng's anxious look and couldn't help but say
"Wait, I feel like something is wrong..."
"Stop talking so much!"
Gu Qingsheng was so anxious that he naturally didn't notice much. The man in black also seemed to realize that he was being chased. He looked back and saw the corner of Gu Qingsheng's clothes. He threw down the sachet in his hand, turned over and went onto the roof.
After chasing to the end of the street breathlessly, I could only see the figure of the man in black on the roof, and a sachet lying quietly on the ground.
She exhaled a few times. Since she had already caught the thing, there was no need to continue.
He slowly picked up the sachet, but before Gu Qingsheng could put it in his arms, a familiar voice suddenly came from the street.
"Is the Imperial Master really so heartless?"
