Burns?!
"That scar seems to be new, and it's quite ferocious and scary. Otherwise... there's nothing else..."
Although Liu Dahai tried his best to think about it, he finally shook his head.
A woman wearing white clothes and a white veil in a foggy day, it is really hard to imagine what her characteristics are.
However, burns...
This reminded Gu Qingsheng of the fire at Luofo Temple.
Isn't it too coincidental?
He exchanged a glance with Zheng Xueyi, and almost at the same time, he saw a look of affirmation in the other's eyes.
That woman must be someone related to the Luofo Temple fire.
Minsa.
Gu Qingsheng was immediately associated with Wen Sa.
As if his mind suddenly became clear, Gu Qingsheng paused in thought.
Since it was Minsa who wanted to send someone to inquire about me, he must have bad intentions.
Although the identity of this person is still uncertain, but...
In just a moment, Gu Qingsheng came up with a solution.
She took out another hundred taels of silver from her bosom and smiled at Liu Dahai.
Liu Dahai's eyes suddenly widened, not knowing whether it was because of the dazzling banknotes or because Gu Qingsheng's smile was too gentle.
"Hey, hey!"
Use the knife! ! The handle poked Liu Dahai's shoulder, and Zheng Xueyi rolled her eyes.
“I’m talking to you, but you look like you’ve never seen a woman before!!
Her disgusted look made Liu Dahai's face turn red and he lowered his head in a hurry.
"If you can do me a favor, then this hundred taels will be yours too. How about that? It's much more than the ten taels she gave you."
Liu Dahai was a little hesitant. This woman gave off a dangerous aura.
It was because he was possessed by evil spirits that he was beaten so badly this morning. Now that the reward has increased, he is a little scared.
"rest assured."
Stuffing the banknote into Liu Dahai's hand, Gu Qingsheng continued
"What I'm asking you to do is safer and simpler than asking you to get information..."
Seeing that Liu Dahai was silent, Gu Qingsheng was not in a hurry. He leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear. Gradually, a strange look appeared on Liu Dahai's face. He looked at Gu Qingsheng, nodded after a while, and clenched the banknotes in his hand.
“Knock knock.”
There were two knocks on the door, and the rough voice of the soldier leader came from outside.
"Princess, are you okay? I seemed to hear a man's voice here..."
Gu Qingsheng immediately fell silent, shushed Liu Dahai, and walked to the door and opened it a little, just in time to block the sight of the officer and soldier looking inside.
"It's okay. I probably caught a cold recently, so my voice is a little hoarse. You might have misheard."
He looked suspiciously into Gu Qingsheng's room, and the officer scratched his head.
"I see..."
Seeing that he still didn't leave and didn't seem to believe it, Gu Qingsheng rolled his eyes and immediately changed his words.
"Well, I just saw the Imperial Master wake up. How is he? Is he feeling better?"
When Gu Qingsheng asked this question, the officers and soldiers' thoughts flew away, and their sight finally shifted to the room beside them.
"Master, when I went in to check on him just now, he was fine. He's just a little bit weak. I heard Master Jingyuan is going to take him out soon."
As he spoke, the officer lowered his voice, and his expression was somewhat like the maids whispering in each other's ears.
"Princess, you're fine. You only stayed in there for a while. You know the Imperial Master stayed there for almost seven days. It's freezing cold in that spring. The Imperial Master must have been seriously injured after such an experience. Master Jingyuan is truly cruel..."
Gu Qingsheng blinked, looking at the officers and soldiers' admiring expressions in a daze.
At this point, the officers and soldiers suddenly realized that their behavior was inappropriate, and they stood up straight with red faces.
"My lord, I'm sorry."
After he said that, he turned around and tried to escape, but the moment he turned around, the door next door opened.
Jingyuan walked out slowly with Buddhist beads in hand. Behind her, Xu Qingyi's eyes and eyebrows were as gentle as jade, but with a very strong sense of fatigue, he coughed.
The officers and soldiers quickly stepped aside to make way for the two people. Gu Qingsheng naturally also saw Xu Qingyi and Jing Yuan, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should close the door.
If I close the door now, wouldn't it be a bit too obvious...
Helpless, he could only watch Jingyuan and Xu Qingyi walk past his door, forcing himself to squeeze out a very kind smile.
"Master Jingyuan..."
Jingyuan nodded at her, but her eyes were still slightly lowered.
"Is the princess feeling better? The water in the cold spring is freezing, I hope you don't get sick."
"It's nothing serious. I've already seen a doctor these past two days. Thanks to the master, there's nothing wrong. But the national master..."
Subconsciously, Gu Qingsheng mentioned Xu Qingyi and looked in that direction.
A chill ran down her feet, and in Xu Qingyi's eyes, she saw a deep...
alienation.
The fingers holding the doors on both sides slowly tightened, and her face paled.
Sure enough, it wasn't her illusion just now.
Even so, Gu Qingsheng still smiled and asked Xu Qingyi
"Is the Imperial Master feeling better? I just heard that the Imperial Master had woken up, so I went to check on you. But there were too many people there, so I came back. I'll come back when I have time."
Xu Qingyi spoke in a flat tone, as if he was looking at another person through Gu Qingsheng.
There seemed to be complete indifference and disregard in his eyes, and this cold gaze went straight into Gu Qingsheng's heart.
"Thank you for your concern, my lady. I am fine now."
After saying this, Xu Qingyi raised his footsteps slightly and walked in front of Jingyuan, with no intention of saying another word to Gu Qingsheng.
Jingyuan nodded at Gu Qingsheng again and left with Xu Qingyi.
After they left, Gu Qingsheng's stiff lips slowly pursed, his teeth trembling, and he closed the door with a bang, not caring about the officers and soldiers still standing opposite him.
"It seems that your relationship with him is not as rumored..."
Seeing this scene, Zheng Xueyi was moved.
A few days ago, the trend in Jin and Chu was that Princess Changle fell in love with General Yaochu of Chu and pursued him vigorously.
In recent days, the rumors have changed their tone, saying that Princess Changle seduced the Imperial Master and the Imperial Master was almost bewitched.
Originally, these were just folk rumors that she listened to for fun, but now that she saw the relationship between Gu Qingsheng and Xu Qingyi, Zheng Xueyi felt strange.
"The Imperial Master naturally has nothing to do with a little girl like me."
Turning around, Gu Qingsheng looked normal, with even a faint smile on his lips.
"As for folklore, no one can be without my music. Sometimes even I find it very moving when I listen to it."
She walked to Liu Dahai and changed the subject
"Well, have you considered it carefully? This is a sure-win business."
Perhaps the determination in Gu Qingsheng's eyes was too obvious, Liu Dahai smiled bitterly.
"Do I have any other choice, Your Highness?"
“He who knows the times is a hero.”
Propping himself up, Gu Qingsheng slowly raised his lips.
