Chapter 294 Mysterious Woman



"No, no, no, I like it, I like it."

Grab the oil paper bag

“I love to eat, I love to eat!”

The more shy and uncomfortable Xu Qingyi was, the more interesting Gu Qingsheng found it.

"Whether it's bought or made, as long as it's from the heart of the Grand Master, I like it."

The two were chatting when a gust of wind came from outside the window.

Slowly opening his eyes, Xu Qingyi glanced at the window.

Noticing his movements, Gu Qingsheng blinked

"What's wrong?"

She also looked out the window with Xu Qingyi. Apart from the dark night and the rustling bamboo forest outside, there was nothing else.

The moonlight was still mottled in the bamboo forest, and the only sounds in the quiet night were the chirping of birds.

"Is there anything outside?"

She stood up and looked at the window, but didn't see anything.

Xu Qingyi followed her to her side, staring at the darkness in the bamboo forest with a gloomy look in his eyes.

"The moonlight is so beautiful, I don't want to spoil the fun."

After saying that, he sighed

“What a pity.”

As he said this, a long and thin needle suddenly shot out from the bamboo forest and pierced straight into Gu Qingsheng's forehead!

Because the needle was too thin, it could not be seen even with the naked eye, and there was something black on the top of the needle tip.

The launch speed was also very fast. Before Gu Qingsheng could exclaim, Xu Qingyi protected him behind him.

Xu Qingyi's movements were also very quick. He clamped the silver needle between his fingers almost instantly, and his two jade-white fingers just avoided the black part.

With a cold look in his eyes, the needle in his hand flew out and shot into the bamboo forest. I didn't know whose cry of pain was heard, and then the leaves rustled again, and there was no sound anymore.

Frightened by the disaster just now, Xu Qingyi took a deep breath on her back.

"Are you scared?"

After exhaling a few times, Gu Qingsheng looked at Xu Qingyi and complained

"Why didn't you tell me there was someone in this bamboo forest?"

"It's nothing to worry about."

He said slowly, twisting his fingers

"this……"

"What is it?"

Gu Qingsheng was nervous and went closer to take a look, but Xu Qingyi put his hand down in time.

"nothing."

Based on what he knew from his previous life and this life, Xu Qingyi would never take a closer look at something that was "nothing".

Gu Qingsheng immediately knew that things were not that simple, his brows turned cold, and he walked to the table and sat down.

"If the Imperial Master says there is none, then there is none."

"Anyway, that person was targeting me. Luckily, the Imperial Master is still here, so my life is saved."

"But if something like this happens again next time, I won't be prepared. I'm afraid I'll get caught and die."

"Then the Imperial Master will also be happy and at peace."

After saying that, he turned his head away, looking as if he was extremely angry.

Xu Qingyi walked up to her and pursed her lips for a moment, not knowing what to say.

The hands on his legs tightened, and then he fell silent.

At this moment, Gu Qingsheng finally understood what Miao Lanlan meant by the phrase "muffled bun" when she was around.

She suddenly felt a little depressed and turned around to say something, but Xu Qingyi turned around and the two of them looked at each other and then lowered their eyes.

"you……"

"Don't be angry."

After hearing Xu Qingyi's awkward words, he moved closer to Gu Qingsheng, his warm breath spraying on him, and there seemed to be some caution between his brows, which immediately reminded Gu Qingsheng of the clear eyes of a deer in the woods.

"That thing on the needle is not good, so I don't want you to know, it's..."

"That is..."

"What is that?"

Gu Qingsheng held his face with both hands and looked at Xu Qingyi, his sharp eyes made Xu Qingyi even more silent.

"It's poison."

Gu Qingsheng forgot to blink and was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of that person who was always smiling, and his heart ached...

Lanlan...

No, it can't be her.

Seeing Gu Qingsheng's stunned expression for a moment, Xu Qingyi naturally guessed what she was thinking and held her hand.

"No, that's not the case."

"This should be a Gu from the Western Regions, not Miaojiang. This silver needle is quite heavy. The Miaojiang people are good at practicing these light weapons, and their silver needles are also very delicate. It shouldn't be this heavy."

"This person might be one of Lehman's former subordinates."

Pulling his thoughts back, Gu Qingsheng was a little reluctant.

"Weren't all those former Lehman employees apprehended and disposed of? Did this guy escape last time? Is he here to cause trouble now?"

Thinking of this, she remembered the man who had just escaped after being injured, and she couldn't help but start to worry.

"Is it really okay to let him get away like this? It's okay with me, but I'm worried he might do something bad to others."

There were many people involved in this incident at the time. Xueyi and Bailu had all shown up, and the two of them were never in front of him. What if...

"Don't worry about it."

Xu Qingyi patted her hands

"That poison is deadly."

The figure of the woman behind the curtain was somewhat enchanting, half lying on the couch, seemingly thinking about something.

There were gusts of wind outside. She slowly opened her beautiful eyes and looked towards the door.

Then the door was pushed open by Peng, and a man stumbled in.

It was a man in black, with a deep blue light in his eyes. He kept covering his heart with his hands, and suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, spitting it on the ground. The black mask was even darker in color.

“Master… Master…”

The woman looked at him with some impatience.

"From what you see, Changle is indeed in the National Temple?"

"The old man in the palace protects her better than anyone else. Even if she quarrels with his precious daughter, he still has to send someone to follow her without revealing her whereabouts."

"It seems that he has also guessed that there are people with strange intentions in this palace."

The woman in black seemed to be blind to the struggle and pain of the man in black and looked at her red nail polish.

"Never mind. This old man has been cautious all his life. It's enough for him to know that Changle is in the National Temple."

"Let's do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man in black fell to the ground with a thud, whimpered a few times and fell silent.

The woman raised her eyes, looked at the corpse on the ground, and said helplessly

"I lost my life because I was not as skilled as others, and I can't blame anyone."

"If the prince knew that you were all this kind of people, he would definitely be heartbroken, although..."

She stopped talking, blew a breath on her hands, picked up the fan and blew a breath on it.

"Clean it up quickly, it's really an eyesore."

Soon, more men in black carried the man out and nothing happened.

A scream was heard in the silent palace.

Concubine Ning's painful voice continued to overflow, and soon all the lights came on.

"My dear concubine! She's about to give birth!!"

Following the palace maid's shout, imperial doctors came in and out of the palace one after another, with cold sweat on their foreheads.

Gu Miao was naturally awakened by the sound, and his tone was a little irritated.

"How is it? Is it done?"
