Chapter 8 Gu Miao



He began to choke up in the middle of his words, as if he was very embarrassed and scared about bumping into Gu Qingsheng.

Xu Qingyi's eyes flashed, and he turned his gaze to the horse. He walked over and touched it.

The horse was in a very lethargic state, with its eyes drooping terribly. Although it was standing, it looked like it would fall down in the next second.

This is already an old horse, it shouldn't go crazy all of a sudden...

Xu Qingyi frowned as he was thinking, but his hand seemed to touch something on the front horse's leg, and his frown deepened.

He waved his hand to let the officers and soldiers on both sides take over and hold the horses, and exerted force with his palms!

“Chi——”

A muffled sound came from its legs!

The horse neighed, raised its hooves and tried to run away. Its voice was mournful and its whole body was struggling!

Fortunately, the two soldiers held it down firmly, and with the help of the old man who came over to comfort it, the horse calmed down a little, but its front leg was still bleeding.

Xu Qingyi looked at the long bone-piercing nail in his hand, which was stained with blood. It was this thick and long nail that directly pierced the horse's front legs, which made it go crazy.

“This! This!”

The driver saw the nail and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

"This is impossible! We were walking just fine! How could there suddenly be a nail in his leg? This is impossible!"

He didn't look like he knew the nail.

Moreover, in the palm of his hand, the nail emitted a silver light.

Ordinary people cannot afford nails made entirely of silver like this.

Thinking of the injury on Gu Qingsheng's leg just now, Xu Qingyi's eyebrows flashed slightly and he put away the nail.

The black soup made Gu Qingsheng frown and resist instinctively.

Bai Lu looked anxious and pinched some golden candy cubes and put them into a small cup beside her.

"Princess, you have to drink it. You just got frightened. How can you not drink the medicine?"

"Fortunately, the injury on my leg is not serious, it's just a superficial wound. Otherwise, His Majesty would be so distressed."

She sighed, her eyes full of pity.

Seeing Bai Lu's expression, Gu Qingsheng had no choice but to accept his fate and drink the medicine.

With a distorted expression, he ate the candy in his hand and his condition improved slightly.

"Princess, just drink it, it will be fine."

Bai Lu was relieved after taking the medicine bowl. She cleaned up and said

"The Empress came in a few days later and said that she and the Emperor would come to see you. The Prince has also been notified and should be here soon."

Gu Qingsheng nodded. Only after Bai Lu left did she carefully sort out the relationship.

Prince Duan and the current emperor are brothers from the same mother.

When the Nine Princes were fighting for the throne, the Queen Mother did not have much power, but fortunately the two princes were able to do their best.

Prince Duan also devoted himself to supporting his brother to ascend the throne, and put in a lot of effort in negotiations. On the eve of the succession to the throne, he blocked an assassin's knife for the emperor, resulting in the loss of all his martial arts skills.

He was of a quiet nature and rarely participated in court affairs after the emperor ascended the throne, which made the emperor feel guilty about him.

She is the only legitimate daughter of Prince Duan's Mansion. She was injured outside the palace this time. It is reasonable for the emperor to come and express his condolences.

While the two were talking, a palace maid came outside to report

"Princess, the Queen is here."

Gu Qingsheng propped himself up and stood up

"Please come in."

Then, a dignified woman walked in.

She has a pretty face and is well maintained. Even though she is over forty, there are very few wrinkles on her face. Her steps are steady and majestic, and she exudes an aura of majesty without even being angry.

As soon as she stepped into the room, the Queen saw Gu Qingsheng standing up to greet her. She hurried forward to support him and said angrily:

"If you're injured, just lie down and do what you want. Why are you going through so much trouble?"

There are three thousand beauties in the harem. Although the queen holds a secure position, she can never get the emperor's favor.

She was old and could not compare with the beautiful flowers that had just entered the palace.

Although she holds a high position, if a woman does not get the attention of her beloved for a long time, the frustration in her heart is incomparable.

I had a deep understanding of this in my previous life.

The emperor felt guilty towards Prince Duan and doted on his niece as well, so the current queen was so polite to him.

In her previous life, after she became the general's wife, she often went to the battlefield with Chu Zhiyao and was willing to prepare meals for the soldiers herself, so she gradually became disconnected from the circle of noble ladies in the capital.

Now that I think about it, Chu Zhiyao didn't stop me from going to the battlefield because he probably really wanted me to die on the battlefield.

She sighed silently and looked at the queen in front of her.

Later, the harem was in turmoil, and countless new talents emerged. The queen was falsely accused of witchcraft and was deposed. From then on, she was banished to the cold palace and lived in an extremely desolate state.

Raising his eyes, there was some light flashing in them, and Gu Qingsheng smiled obediently at the queen.

"Thank you, Queen. I just heard Bai Lu say that the Emperor was coming with you. Why haven't you seen the Emperor yet?"

These words made the queen's eyes dim a little. She tried to hide it very quickly but Gu Qingsheng still caught it.

"I heard that Prince Duan was also going to the palace, and the Emperor said he would wait for Prince Duan to come with him, so I came to see you first."

"I'm sorry you've been wronged by this incident in front of the palace gate."

Gu Qingsheng shook his head and placed his hands on the Queen's

"Your Highness, please don't say that. It was an unexpected event that we couldn't control. Besides, Changle is fine. She only suffered a minor injury. Why are you making such a fuss, even bringing the Emperor here? I'm truly ashamed."

There is no reason not to refuse something given to you by a friend.

The current queen is like a big tree. She is such a good comrade, why didn’t I think of making good use of her in my previous life?
