The chief guard carried a cloth bag and ran to Jing Mo, who was standing against the wall on the street. He wiped the sweat off his head and said excitedly, "Master, I am back."
Jing Mo glanced at the cloth bag carried by the chief guard and said, "We looted a lot."
"It's all gold!" The captain of the guards happily opened the cloth bag and showed it to Jing Mo.
Jing Mo glanced at the cloth bag, then looked at the captain of the guards with a smile.
The captain of the guards was startled by Jing Mo's look, but then he came to his senses. He was not a real bandit, so why was he so happy?
State Master Wuhuan landed silently and stood in front of Jing Mo. He also glanced at the cloth bag in the chief guard's hand and said, "Compared to Xiong Xiong and the others, your stuff is not good enough."
The captain of the guards..., those guys used to do this, how can he compare with them? !
"Your Majesty, you should leave," Imperial Master Wuhuan said to Jing Mo after teasing the chief guard, "The wind is blowing now, the fire may burn here."
Jing Mo stood still and asked, "Can Fu Boyuan be trusted?"
Master Wuhuan, with his hood lowered to cover his face, stood facing the street with Jing Mo. He whispered to Jing Mo the conversation that Di Ling had just had with Fu Boyuan.
"Villain," Jing Mo said two words after hearing what Master Wuhuan said.
"How can a person who talks nonsense be a person who keeps his promises?" Wuhuan Imperial Master said, "As long as Fu Boyuan is not hopelessly stupid, he should know who to walk side by side with."
Jing Mo whispered, "If the princess hadn't rescued Su Gen and the other two, Su Zhao wouldn't have been able to choose what to do next."
The high eaves of the nameless building fell down in the fire, causing the crowd on the street to scream again.
The chief guard stretched his neck to look at the Nameless Building. The tall building was on fire and bandits had entered. No one dared to approach the Nameless Building, so the burning eaves fell to the ground and did not hurt anyone. The chief guard looked at the street full of flames and suddenly remembered something. He turned his head and asked Jing Mo, "Master, you ordered this street to be burned like this. Will the princess feel bad afterwards?"
Jing Mo said: "Is this my order? Didn't Xiong Xiong and the others set the fire after receiving the order?"
Chief of the Imperial GuardsΣ(°△°|||)︴, Master, are you really a man if you do this?!
Outside the brightly lit palace, the secret guard reported to Emperor Xianzong: "Your Majesty, the sentry post at the watchtower just reported that the area around Wuming Tower is also on fire."
Xianzong said: "A belt?" The nameless building was burned, so how could it still be a belt?
The secret guard said: "There are flames all over the street."
Xianzong slammed the table and said, "Who did this again?!"
The secret guard outside the door didn't dare to say a word. How could he know who set fire to a street again when he was in the palace?
Zuo You said to Emperor Xianzong, "Uncle, Jing Mo and the others are outside the palace now, so it could be anyone."
Xianzong shouted, "Where is Gu Yanruo? Let him come to see me!" If he continued to set fires here and there, how many houses would be left in his Fengjing city by dawn?
The secret guard hesitated for a moment and said to Emperor Xianzong, "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister left the palace half a quarter of an hour ago."
Xianzong immediately asked anxiously: "Where did he go?"
The secret guard said, "I don't know. The Prime Minister left in a hurry and didn't leave any words."
Xianzong asked Zuo You in a panic, "Has something changed?"
Zuo You was more patient than Xianzong at this time and said, "Maybe he was worried about Xinglang, so he rushed over to check on him."
Xianzong started walking around the palace again. The script was well-decided, but when the show started, none of the people followed the script!
After being questioned by Emperor Xianzong, Young Master Gu hurriedly walked into a house on a back street in the northern part of Fengjing.
Gu Lin ran out of the cross-courtyard gate, and when he arrived in front of Young Master Gu, he bowed and whispered, "Master, the person is here."
"Yeah," Young Master Gu responded, and without stopping, he walked straight to the backyard of the mansion.
There is a main house and four side rooms in the backyard. The light in the second side room from the left is on, and Gu Dong and several others are guarding outside the house.
Young Master Gu stood in front of the door. There was no need for Gu Lin and the others to push the door for him. Young Master Gu reached out and pushed the door open himself.
Ruan Tian, who was captured by Gu Lin from the post station outside the city two days ago and was just taken to this house, shuddered when she heard the sound of the door. She turned around and saw that the person coming was Gu Xingnuo. Ruan Tian was even more frightened.
Ruan Shihao was lying on the bed in the room. He was still fat, but his face was sallow. When he saw Gu Xingnuo, his eyes were filled with despair.
Gu Xingnuo walked into the room and looked at Ruan Shihao lying on the bed and Ruan Tian kneeling on the ground. He looked normal and even said kindly, "Ruan Tian, your father has come back to life, why are you still so worried?"
"I," Ruan Tian looked up at Gu Xingnuo, speechless. Her father was alive in front of her, so how could she explain? Why did she go to the Dali Temple to sue Gu Xinglang for murder?
"Tian'er is young and ignorant." At this time, Ruan Shihao still wanted to plead for Ruan Tian. He looked at Master Gu and pleaded, "She was also forced to do so. Yan Ruo, please forgive her this time."
Gu Xingnuo walked to the bed and stood down, smiling a little dully, "If I spare her, then who will spare Xinglang?"
Ruan Shihao said: "You are already the Prime Minister, second only to the Prime Minister, you will definitely be able to protect Xinglang. As for Tian'er, I promise not to let her enter Fengjing again. If she does, I will kill her!"
Ruan Tian buried her face in the ground and burst into tears.
"I gave you a chance a long time ago," Gu Xingnuo stood in front of the bed, looking down at Ruan Shihao, "It's a pity that you turned a blind eye to my kindness. This woman harmed Xinglang, give me a reason why I should let her go?"
Ruan Shihao opened and closed his lips for a long while before saying, "Her last name is Ruan after all."
"So does my Gu family owe your Ruan family any favor?" Gu Xingnuo asked again.
Ruan Shihao shed tears and said, "The old lady has worked hard for your Gu family for most of her life."
"So what? Didn't the old lady of your Ruan family work hard for the Ruan family for most of her life?" Gu Xingnuo asked again.
Now Ruan Shihao was speechless.
Ruan Tian said at this time: "You already knew that my father was not dead, so why did you say that my cousin killed my father?"
Gu Xingnuo didn't even look at Ruan Tian, he just looked at Ruan Shihao and said, "You also want to send a woman like this into our Gu family?"
"Tian'er is young, she doesn't understand anything, both she and I were wrong," Ruan Shihao said, reaching out to pull Young Master Gu's clothes, "If you are already the Prime Minister, why would you bother to argue with an ignorant girl like her?"
Gu Xingnuo let Ruan Shihao's hand pass and said to the outside of the door, "Come in."
Gu Lin and Gu Bin responded and walked into the house.
Young Master Gu turned around and looked at Ruan Tian, and said in a very calm tone: "Cut off her tongue."
