Besides...
The figure of Xu Qingyi appeared in her mind again. Now, she probably didn't know how to face Xu Qingyi at all. Her miserable appearance last time was embarrassing enough, and she didn't have the courage to ride in the same carriage with Xu Qingyi again.
I thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly there was still a commotion at night.
The torch outside the window lit up the courtyard brightly. Gu Qingsheng was a light sleeper and could not fall asleep after being illuminated by the firelight.
"Bai Lu."
She shouted outside, but no one responded. This was a bit strange. Gu Qingsheng paused and shouted a few more times.
The door was opened by Bai Lu with a "bang". Before Gu Qingsheng could ask, her face turned pale.
"Oh no, Princess! The Queen is calling you over!"
"Sure enough! Sure enough! I discovered your affair with that man in black from last time!"
Gu Qingsheng was not as panicked as Bai Lu, he raised his eyelids
"What are you panicking about?"
"Whether there is adultery or not, how could you not know?"
She stood up and put on her robe. The night wind outside was not very cold.
Standing straight, with no makeup on her face, she has a pale and sickly beauty.
"Whatever it is, just go and take a look."
When we arrived at the queen's courtyard, there was already a circle of people inside and outside the door.
The girls and young ladies were standing at the door, raising their necks to look inside. But when Gu Qingsheng came, they fell silent and made way for her.
The looks they gave Gu Qingsheng were more or less strange, but Gu Qingsheng turned a blind eye to them and was supported by Bai Lu, walking calmly although at a slow pace.
However, she still couldn't let these people know that her wound had healed, so she usually walked a few steps and stopped a few times. Soon, some sympathy appeared in those strange looks.
When I walked into the main hall, I saw the queen sitting on the throne.
She looked a little tired, and a very complicated emotion flashed across her face when she looked at Gu Qingsheng.
"Changle is here, please give him a seat first."
Perhaps because Gu Qingsheng's face looked really bad, the Queen kept back all the questions she was about to ask.
When the queen said this, a figure suddenly rushed to Gu Qingsheng's feet and hugged her legs.
"Princess! Princess! Please let my family and our young lady go! I kowtow to you!"
"It's my fault! It's my fault! It's all my fault!"
Gu Qingsheng staggered and almost fell down when the figure pounced on her, but Bai Lu protected her in time.
Only then did the two of them see clearly who the person on the ground was who kept kowtowing to them.
"sapphire?"
Bai Lu was stunned and looked at Bao Lan in surprise.
Below the queen, Luo Zhaozhao sat on a chair with red eyes, wiping tears from time to time, looking very aggrieved, while Chu Zhiyao stood beside the queen, looking at Gu Qingsheng with arrogance in his eyes.
Wow, all my enemies are gathered together.
"Princess, this matter is not Baolan's fault. If you have any problems, just come to me."
Gu Qingsheng hadn't even sat down yet, but the two of them were already singing in unison, which made her feel a little funny. She sat down slowly without any panic.
"I don't even know what's going on, and you're all screaming and howling over here, giving me a headache."
"The princess is so calm now, she probably won't say that in a while."
Chu Zhiyao said, then threw a sachet next to Gu Qingsheng.
Along with the incense bag, she also threw away her lost jade pendant. This time, it was the real one.
Gu Qingsheng didn't pick it up immediately, but just thought for a long time and smiled.
"I don't know what General Chu means..."
She didn't finish her words because a faint fragrance came from the incense bag.
The fragrance made Gu Qingsheng fall silent immediately.
"What? Princess, you have nothing to say?"
This mocking voice is still unpleasant after hearing it for a lifetime. Gu Qingsheng raised his eyes.
"Anyway, Queen, how about you tell me what happened first?"
This farce made the queen even more tired. She had to return to Jin and Chu tomorrow, but this happened tonight. She waved her hand and signaled Zhihe to go and tell her.
After receiving the Queen's signal, Zhihe stepped forward with lowered eyebrows.
"Tonight, the Empress was about to go to bed, but she had a severe migraine, so I thought of going to the garden behind to pick some flower petals to make a pot of flower tea for her."
"But when I was picking flower petals, I discovered that someone was already in the garden. It was Baolan."
"When I found her, she was crying and burying something. She was holding a candle, so I saw at a glance that what she buried was the princess's jade pendant!"
"At that time, I thought she had stolen the princess's jade pendant, so I asked General Chu to arrest her. I didn't expect..."
The next words Zhihe seemed to be hesitant. Baolan on the ground cried even harder. Luo Zhaozhao seemed to finally be unable to bear it anymore. He stood up suddenly, twisted his handkerchief with both hands, and looked indignant.
"If Miss Zhihe can't explain it, then I'll say it!"
"Princess! We, the master and the servant, believe we have done nothing wrong to you! Why are you so ruthless and ruthless towards us?"
"The identity of the man in black has been found out. He was one of the bandits at the bottom of the cliff. After the man in black died, Baolan helped the young monks clean up the spiritual spring in the back mountain. This jade pendant was found in the spiritual spring."
"Also, this incense bag was also found in the spiritual spring! The princess should know about this!"
Gu Qingsheng blinked and did not answer.
"If the princess still wants to play dumb, then take out the contents of the sachet and let me see."
After Luo Zhaozhao reminded her, Gu Qingsheng winked at Bai Lu.
Bai Lu then stepped forward and picked up the sachet and jade pendant. A piece of paper fell out of the sachet. The piece of paper seemed to have been soaked in water and was wrinkled.
Bai Lu took a look at the contents of the note and handed it to Gu Qingsheng calmly.
Her expression of not wanting to be offended at all made Luo Zhaozhao feel uneasy.
After taking the note, Gu Qingsheng also found it very interesting.
Although she was dumb in her previous life, Bai Lu was smart. In her previous life, Luo Zhaozhao and Bao Lan were both no match for Bai Lu. What else could she possibly hope to learn from Bai Lu in this life? It was she wishful thinking.
The handwriting on the note was very clumsy. It was nothing more than a love letter, but this love letter was about herself.
"My dear Changle, the plan has been completed. Now I am the only one left in the village. I am very happy that you gave me the jade pendant of love, so I also gave you the hairpin and sachet that were my mother's relics as a token of our love. I will go to find you tonight. Everything will go according to the original plan. I will make sure that you become the most honored woman."
The signature was Niu Er, the name of the bandit.
