Gu Hui held back her strength, afraid that if she didn't, she would break the little neck.
She wanted to break it, but her second uncle said that it was very likely the son of King Lange, and keeping it would be of great use.
Gu Hui didn't know that Langge King was Qu King, so she didn't know what great use this was.
But Gu Shouxin knew that Langge Wang was Qu Wang. Judging from the men Qu Wang had given to Peng Mu, Gu Shouxin had analyzed that Qu Wang's descendants were probably few in number. Those in Da Zhou had all been executed, which was witnessed by the people of Da Zhou. Of course, he certainly didn't value the descendants Qu Wang left in Da Zhou. Those he would value would definitely not remain in Qu Wang's mansion.
Peng Mu has done so much without being exposed, and he has hidden himself so well. His own abilities must have been valued by King Qu.
Therefore, Peng Mu cannot die yet; he must be captured and imprisoned. It depends on what King Langge plans to do: send someone to Kuncheng to rescue him, or send troops to attack directly.
Gu Shouxin currently hopes that King Lang will launch an attack directly. Gu Nian has already produced a batch of highly lethal weapons. A letter from the Liusha Kingdom informed Gu Shouxin that the alliance between the Yunhai Tribe and King Lang has been completed, but the Yunhai Tribe's troops will not arrive so quickly.
Therefore, if Langer dares to attack, he is confident that they will not return alive.
As for taking the initiative, Great Zhou is at a disadvantage. If it rashly launches an attack, even if it wins, Great Zhou will suffer heavy casualties. When the two sides fight, the third party benefits. When the Yunhai tribe comes to attack, Great Zhou will not even have the ability to defend the city.
Therefore, before Gu Hui came to Fuzhou, Gu Shouxin instructed Gu Hui that as long as she kept a close watch on the person and prevented him from escaping, she could torture him however she wanted, but the person she brought back had to be alive.
Gu Hui looked at Peng Mu on the ground, his pale face turning purple from holding his breath. She lifted her foot, pulled the gag out of Peng Mu's mouth, and waited for him to catch his breath.
Once he caught his breath, Gu Hui would plug his mouth again and step on him, repeating this process over and over.
When Peng Mu fainted, Gu Hui would pour cold water from the kettle on the table onto his face to wake him up.
If Peng Mu's gaze towards Gu Hui could materialize, it would definitely be a series of throwing knives.
He hadn't recognized Gu Hui yet, but he had already guessed that she must be from Kuncheng. She wasn't one of Madam Peng's female soldiers; he guessed she was someone trained by the Gu family.
...
Princess Jinghe was leisurely driving around the city when, sure enough, someone caught up with her and stopped her after a short while.
"What are you doing? Trying to steal a car in broad daylight?" Princess Jinghe glared at Peng Mu's subordinate.
Peng Mu's men looked up at the sky. What the hell? It was broad daylight, yet it was nighttime!
He picked up Princess Jinghe and threw her out of the carriage. Then he used his sword to pull open the carriage. There was a sack inside, but the other woman was nowhere to be found.
He grabbed Princess Jinghe by the neck: "Tell me, where is the other person who came out of the Song family with you just now?"
Princess Jinghe slapped his arm, rolling her eyes. "How am I supposed to talk when you're pinching me?"
This person probably thought of this as well, so he changed his grip and grabbed her by the collar.
Princess Jinghe coughed several times: "So you wanted to see my sister! You should have said so earlier, why did you have to get physical with her?"
Peng Mu's subordinate: "..."
Princess Jinghe patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, you're so rude, my sister won't like you. She prefers gentlemen."
