"you!"
Gu Qing was helpless, sorted out his emotions, and pulled her up: "But I am in the mansion, what I need is someone who obeys the discipline."
"If you intend to kill someone, or if you are delaying important matters due to your lack of etiquette, my accepting you will only lead to disaster."
Gu Qing said frankly that the kindness in his heart was not a reason to take her in.
She couldn't afford to gamble in this life, nor would she gamble her own and the Chen family's future for anyone.
Yinghong clenched her fists tightly, suddenly raised her head, turned around and walked to the seat where she had just sat, and sat upright like Gu Qing.
Although it looks awkward, it is much better than before.
"Is this okay?"
She straightened her back, put her legs together, and combed her messy hair, revealing half of her pretty yet heroic face.
It was the first time that Gu Qing saw her facial features clearly, and her opinion of her changed a little. She looked at Yinghong for a moment, as if giving herself and Yinghong a chance.
The room was unusually quiet; even Yinghong's nervous breathing was audible.
About half an incense stick of time passed, and the girl opposite was still sitting upright.
Gu Qing suddenly stood up and walked out of the house.
Yinghong spoke hurriedly, not daring to look back: "Madam?!"
Gu Qing paused slightly, his slender hands suspended in the air, and he tilted his head slightly and smiled, "Go take a shower, clean yourself up, and keep watch for me tonight."
"Yes! Master!"
Yinghong subconsciously wanted to jump off the chair, but after seeing the warning in Gu Qing's eyes, she immediately stood up carefully and said quietly: "Thank you, ma'am."
Downstairs, Chen Zhizhou arranged for his father and other servants of the Chen family to sleep in the bed. Turning around, he saw Gu Qing standing in the corridor, looking at him with a smile.
"lady?"
Chen Zhizhou raised his eyebrows and looked at her, knowing exactly what Gu Qing wanted to say.
He strode up the stairs, put his arm around her shoulders, and whispered in her ear, "Congratulations, ma'am, you've found a master."
However, Gu Qing's expression was not as relaxed as his: "This girl has a perverse personality. I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future."
"The Mo family is born to be the best killer. She is young and can be trained. Moreover, without you, she can't survive in the martial arts world. Madam, just rest assured."
"It's not that she can't live without me, it's that she can't live without the protection of the Chen family."
Gu Qing raised his head, wanting to look into Chen Zhizhou's eyes. His obsidian eyes reflected his own shadow.
She had no idea in her previous life that Chen Zhizhou had such great abilities.
But even though he had such a wide network of contacts, he still died in Gu Yunzhao's frame-up, and the guilt surged like a flood.
Gu Qing's eyes were filled with sadness.
Chen Zhizhou was no longer surprised by her emotions. He held her face in his hands and spoke for the first time, trying to probe her heart: "Madam, why do you feel guilty about me?"
"I....."
Gu Qing suddenly avoided his gaze, surprised at how delicate Chen Zhizhou's mind was, and how he could capture his emotions so quickly.
"It's okay, I'm just worried that she will cause trouble for the Chen family and you in the future."
Chen Zhizhou couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't worry, I believe you can train this little girl well."
Gu Qing was feeling uneasy, but after hearing his words, she felt relieved and more confident in herself: "Maybe."
......
That night, Cuiping had just woken up when Xuanfeng came back to report. Chen Zhizhou went to the backyard with him.
Gu Qing sat alone by the bed, looking at the maid who had slightly woken up: "Cui Ping, you're awake."
"lady!"
Cuiping's emotions suddenly collapsed. She propped up her weak body and sat up. She tightly grasped Gu Qing's hand and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Madam! It's Cuiping who has dragged you down! I'm sorry!"
From the moment she saw the lady coming to save her, she could never forgive herself in her life.
"Okay, you and I are both fine now. Let's not talk about the past anymore." Gu Qing patted the back of her hand and comforted her softly.
Cuiping choked up softly, afraid of upsetting the Madam, but after a moment she gathered herself together, wiped away her tears, and said, "Madam, I've seen clearly who the man is who came to see the Second Wife. He was the one who gave the silver to the Second Wife."
"And..." Cuiping had just finished speaking when the sound of footsteps came from outside the house.
Ying Hong broke in, drew the soft sword from her waist, pulled Gu Qing up and said, "Master, please leave quickly!"
Gu Qing didn't know the current situation.
When Cuiping saw Yinghong, her face turned pale with fear: "It's you!"
"Madam, danger!"
"Cui Ping, can you get up?"
Gu Qing didn't have time to explain. She could feel the seriousness of the situation from Yinghong's eyes.
Since they came to Yinshan City, many things have become very strange and dangerous.
Cui Ping said nothing, threw back the quilt and got out of bed, not dragging Gu Qing behind: "Don't worry, Madam, I'm fine."
"good."
Gu Qing lowered his eyes, looked at Ying Hong and asked calmly, "What happened?"
I saw Yinghong's eyes were bloodshot, just like when he killed someone in broad daylight, and he had lost some of his rationality.
Gu Qing repeated seriously: "Ying Hong?!"
Yinghong came back to her senses, feeling a little guilty and hurried: "I'm sorry, ma'am."
"Someone outside has surrounded the inn, and the city is full of killers."
Gu Qing's mind was working rapidly.
She had never encountered such a dangerous situation in her previous life. Could it be that after her rebirth, many things had changed?
"Where's Chen Zhizhou?"
As soon as Gu Qing finished speaking, Chen Zhizhou strode in, holding a sword in his hand, which was already bloody.
He instructed Yinghong: "Go to the backyard tunnel and take your wife back to the capital first. You know the rules of your Mo family."
"Of course, if anything happens to my master, I will be buried with him."
After Yinghong finished speaking, she grabbed Gu Qing with one hand and Cuiping with the other and flew downstairs into the backyard without saying a word.
Before Gu Qing could entrust Chen Zhizhou with anything, she cried out in tears, "Chen Zhizhou! I'll wait for you! You must come back alive!"
Only after leaving the house did Gu Qing realize how tense the situation was. The entire Yinshan City was brightly lit, with sounds of fighting coming one after another. The deserted city seemed to have fallen into hell.
In the stable in the backyard, Xuanfeng met the three people and together with Feng moved the stone trough, revealing a hole.
Gu Qing looked shocked. After coming to his senses, he asked, "Where are the Chen family members? Have they been safely transferred?"
Xuanfeng moved the stone blocking the cave entrance. "Don't worry, Madam. Lefeng has already moved them away. You should leave quickly too. The mayor of Huaishui City has rebelled."
"You mean, Zhang Bin?"
Gu Qing's expression was unclear, and he looked quite frightened and cold under the firelight. "Isn't he dead?"
Xuan Feng gritted his teeth, "He disguised himself and faked his own death. He's desperate and now wants to cut off our support."
"Ma'am, they have too many people. If we don't leave now, it will be too late!"
Gu Qing didn't move at all. After a moment, he suddenly turned around and said, "Cui Ping, go find your parents-in-law and go with them."
"Ma'am, how about you?"
The four of them looked at Gu Qing, only to see her speak word by word: "I am with my husband."
