"That's a strange question you ask."
Gu Miao looked at Gu Qingsheng with raised eyebrows and a look of disdain, fiddling with the two tufts of hair on his chest.
She was naturally pretty, and with the lighting on, she looked even more alluring.
Being used to being arrogant and domineering on weekdays, he didn't notice Gu Miao's expression.
Gu Qingsheng felt a surge of anxiety in his heart. He wondered how painful Su Huai must be in this state.
"You said Lin Songsu and I don't know each other, what about you?"
"Sister, you know Lin Song? And how did you get to know those people from Huaixiang Pavilion?"
"A princess hangs out with this bunch of dirty people all day long. You've completely disgraced Jin Chu. If the prince knew, who knows how he would react!"
"I went to see Master Lin because I saw that the Minister was depressed all day long. I was worried that the Minister, a loyal minister of the country, would not be able to continue in such a state of disarray."
Just looking at Gu Miao, the smugness in her words was evident.
Can't stand it?
What a joke.
Everyone knows that Gu Miao cares least about state affairs. It is simply a fantasy to capture Lin Song under the pretext of helping the emperor relieve his worries.
She clenched her hands under her sleeves and could even feel some chill in the dark.
Since Huaixiang Pavilion has the order from the late emperor, entering the palace is not a problem.
Gu Qingsheng didn't realize that Su Huai was actually the daughter of a military general.
The roots of the flower, which should be delicate, are tangled and intertwined, yet they are very tenacious and dig deeper into the soil.
Her face was ruined, but she still came to the palace with the intention of seeking revenge. This was no small matter...
We must stop Su Huai from making mistakes.
"No matter what, we still have to respect Master Lin's wishes. I've already been to the Shangshu Mansion, but Master Lin isn't there. It seems he was brought back by my sister."
"Can I have a word with Master Lin, sister?"
This was the first time she spoke to Gu Miao with a forced smile after being reborn, but she was met with a disdainful look from Gu Miao.
Perhaps Gu Qingsheng's current appearance made her very happy, as if he had grasped her weakness, and he curled his lips and said
"Come to me to ask for someone? You are too naive, Gu Qingsheng."
"I'm telling you, you're not allowed to take Lin Song back with me. I have to decide whether he lives or dies."
As if he had thought of something, Gu Miao's eyes lit up and he put his hand on his chin.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you."
The smile then turned a little strange, and his eyes flashed darkly under the candlelight.
"I have already reported the Lin Song incident to my father. Those women in Huaixiang Pavilion were supposed to be beheaded for secretly imprisoning the son of a court official."
"However, considering they have the order from the late emperor, so..."
The voice gradually became as cold as a snake's tongue. Gu Miao stood up and slowly walked towards Gu Qingsheng.
Her eyes were slightly narrowed, but full of danger.
Gu Qingsheng frowned at her, gritting his teeth.
"Shut up..."
But she didn't know that the more she did this, the more excited Gu Miao became. Her voice was like poison drifting in the wind, and breathing in even a little bit would cause extreme pain.
"So... it's changed to, all."
"exile."
Just as the voice fell, there was a sudden sound of something breaking from the beam, and the woman in black clothes rushed down with a sword towards Gu Miao's head!
The face was covered with only a pair of eyes and the scars on the ravine. Gu Qingsheng's pupils dilated, as if he wanted to reach out and pull Su Huai's black dress.
"Don't do anything stupid! Su..."
But it was too late. Gu Miao was also stunned. Seeing the tip of the sword getting closer and closer to him, he was frightened for a moment and screamed with his head in his hands!
Just when Su Huai was about to succeed and Gu Miao was about to die, there was a sudden clang, and the two swords merged together, forcibly deflecting Su Huai's sword!
Because of the fight between the two people, the candles on both sides flickered. Su Huai was pushed away by the force and suddenly retreated to Gu Qingsheng's side. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she didn't even think about stopping. Instead, she suddenly bumped into Gu Qingsheng, knocking Gu Qingsheng onto a pillar on the side!
A huge pain came from her back, and she couldn't help but snort coldly. She slowly raised her eyes and found that Su Huai was giving her a look.
Even at this time, she wanted to draw a clear line with Gu Qingsheng so as not to implicate herself, so she hurt herself.
Although the black figure was thin in the night, it was full of strength. The plain fingers holding the sword were tightly gripping the hilt and had lost all color.
She was solemn and frowned as she looked at the guard who appeared in front of Gu Miao.
As a princess, it is natural for her to have several secret guards around her. Su Huai naturally knew this, so she chose to appear when there were fewer secret guards.
The secret guard who appeared in front of Gu Miao also covered his face with a sword in his hand, and protected the already limp Gu Miao behind him.
"Who is coming?"
After this sudden incident, Gu Miao was also frightened. After he came to his senses, he grabbed the secret guard's robe.
Because the secret guards showed up late, she was inevitably wounded by swords and had several bloody marks on her body. She covered her shoulders like a madman.
"She hurt me! Kill her! Kill her! Let her die in front of me! I can't let her get out alive!!"
Looking at the woman in black and Gu Qingsheng who was lying on the ground behind him, holding his chest, Gu Miao suddenly seemed to think of something.
"Where are the guards? Where are all the palace guards today?"
In the national temple, the officers and soldiers lined up from the inside to the outside, with swords beside them.
They put their hands together and muttered something, while Xu Qingyi in the national temple lit three incense sticks and kowtowed.
In the crowd, an officer wiped his tears and said to his companion
"I never thought that I could receive the blessing of the Grand Master in this life. For someone like us... it's really..."
The companion nodded and said
"Yes, the Emperor has approved this blessing. The entire palace, except for some guards, should be here. You know, this kind of opportunity is hard to come by."
After saying that, he kowtowed three more times, and the man next to him also lowered his head with a solemn expression.
"What you do is hard, and your lives are in danger every day."
After finishing the scripture recitation, Xu Qingyi turned around and said to the crowd of people
"Although this prayer was a spur-of-the-moment decision, the rotation of the Ziwei constellations in the sky and the blessing of the Martial Star at this moment are truly unexpected. If you can wait for this celestial blessing, you will surely enjoy prosperous military fortunes and a long life."
His words were not full of ups and downs, but they stirred up the most passionate emotions in people's hearts, and they all kowtowed to Xu Qingyi.
"Thank you, Master Imperial Preceptor! Thank you, Master Imperial Preceptor!"
The stars in the sky were shining brightly, and the officers and soldiers were all very excited. One of them stepped forward to kowtow to Xu Qingyi again, but was held back by Xu Qingyi.
"It's just a prayer, no need."
Yes, this is just a simple prayer.
