Chapter 123 Shen Zhao is dead?
Her only thought before she passed out was that the former Shen Yuan would come back soon.
It turns out that the colder a man looks, the more ruthless he becomes when he gets crazy!
When I woke up the next day, there was still no warmth beside me.
Chen Yuan rubbed his lower back which was about to break, thinking that the position of Prime Minister was indeed not something that ordinary people could handle.
I am tired from so much work during the day, but I still have so much energy at night.
Chen Yuan suspected that Gu Huailing secretly asked Old Chen to prescribe medicine!
You still have to run, otherwise you will die on the bed sooner or later.
After dinner, Shen Yuan continued to formulate her escape plan in the house.
The sound of bells drifted over along with the aroma of medicine.
Old Chen personally brought over a bowl of black medicine.
The white mist emitted by the medicine obscured Shen Yuan's vision.
The bell rang, and Shen Yuan's head suddenly felt painful!
"Master, it's time to take your medicine." Old Chen handed over the medicine bowl respectfully.
Shen Yuan did not take the medicine bowl.
But his eyes fell on the bell on Old Chen's waist.
The bell was exactly the same as Yan Xi's.
As far as I can remember, Mr. Chen was absolutely loyal to Shen Yuan.
Why is there a bell exactly like Yan Xi's?
"The medicine is almost cold, master." Old Chen said respectfully.
Chen Yuan's eyes turned and he took the medicine bowl and looked at Chen Lao. "There is a question I have always wanted to ask Chen Lao. Are you loyal to me?"
Elder Chen immediately knelt down and said, "My Chen family was born to protect the master. If the master lives, we live. If the master dies, we die."
"Then help me escape from here."
Elder Chen said respectfully, "The time is not yet ripe. Please be patient, Master."
After saying that, he took off the bell from his waist and handed it to Shen Yuan, "This is what Master Yan gave to the master."
Chen Yuan waved his hand impatiently. This old man was actually playing dumb.
Inside the bell was a piece of paper with five words written in blood.
Kill Gu Huailing quickly!
Chen Yuan curled her lips and threw the note aside.
If he has the guts, he can kill himself!
She will go out for a walk soon. As long as she goes out enough, she won't have to worry about not finding a chance to escape.
Chen Yuan took Taozi and the secret guard and walked out happily.
She is now completely emotionless and does everything according to her temperament.
Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, a young general in silver armor was standing outside the courtyard, hesitating, leading his horse.
"Sister." Seeing Shen Yuan, Shen Zhao took a step forward.
Shen Yuan glanced at him and said, "I don't have such a useless brother that I can't get anyone I like."
A trace of bitterness flashed in Shen Zhao's eyes, "Sister, I'm useless, take care of yourself."
"Where are you going?"
Shen Yuan asked subconsciously, and then frowned after asking. Why did she ask these questions?
"Go back to the northwest. Sister, these are the two amulets I asked for you and her. Keep them with you."
Shen Zhao took out the amulet from his arms and handed it to Shen Yuan carefully.
Chen Yuan took the amulet and raised her chin towards Chen Zhao, then put her own amulet into his hand. "Although I have no feelings for you now, but considering that you are my brother, I will return this amulet to you, and you will also be safe."
The young general looked at the woman in front of him, and his eyes rarely turned red.
He climbed onto the horse, his back straight, and said, "Sister, please tell Gu Yao a message for me."
"I hope you will be serious."
After saying that, he rode away without looking back.
Chen Yuan turned and glanced towards the mansion gate. "Everyone has left, why aren't you coming out?"
Gu Yao walked out from behind the mansion gate. She was still wearing a bright dress, but her face looked unusually pale.
Shen Yuan threw the amulet in his hand to her.
Suddenly I lost interest in going out.
All she could think of was the shadow of Shen Zhao on horseback.
I was in a daze the whole day.
At night, Gu Huailing had not returned yet, and Chen Yuan sat on the roof looking at the stars boredly.
His heart twitched and hurt for no apparent reason, so Shen Yuan put his hand on his heart and rubbed it.
Countless lanterns were hung up at the same time in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the hurried footsteps made people feel uneasy.
Gu Huailing was wearing a black and gold cloak, his face was very cold.
"Madam and Gu Yao must not know about Shen Zhao's affairs."
The man's voice was cold and deep.
Gu Yao walked out from the corridor at some point, her voice trembling.
"Brother, what happened to Shen Zhao?"
Gu Huailing stopped and turned around, his eyes like a calm lake with no bottom to be seen.
"Nothing, you go back first."
Gu Huailing obviously didn't want to say more to Gu Yao.
Shen Yuan also stretched her neck to look down. She also wanted to know what happened to Shen Zhao.
Gu Yao ran over and stood in front of Gu Huailing, "Brother, even if you didn't tell me, I would have checked. I just want to know what happened to him."
Gu Huailing looked at Gu Yao with a hint of regret in his eyes.
"According to the Secret Guard, Shen Zhao was attacked outside the capital and his current whereabouts are unknown."
Gu Huailing thought about it, but still did not tell the secret guards the news that Shen Zhao was dead.
After saying this, Gu Yao heaved a sigh of relief, "If we can't find the person, we can just send more people to look for him. Chen Zhao is so good at martial arts that he can come back safely after going to the battlefield, let alone a few petty thieves."
She subconsciously grabbed Gu Huailing's sleeve and said incoherently: "Brother, I'm going to look for someone, come with me, we can find them faster if we have more people."
She didn't even notice the tears falling. "He gave me and my sister-in-law amulets during the day, how could we be attacked? He's a general, who would dare to set an ambush on him?"
Gu Huailing held Gu Yao's hand in return, "Yao'er, go and rest first. I'll have the secret guards continue to look for people."
Chen Yuan frowned as she listened to what the two of them said, and her chest hurt more and more.
Shen Zhao's face became clearer and clearer in front of her.
Gu Yao pulled Gu Huailing and walked out of the house, "No, brother, I want to go find Chen Zhao."
Just then, the secret guards came in carrying a stretcher covered with a white cloth.
The secret guard placed the stretcher on the ground very carefully.
Sanjiu knelt down in front of Gu Huailing first, "Master, General Shen has been found."
Gu Yao was completely stunned. She looked at the person covered by the white cloth in disbelief. She looked at Sanjiu with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face. "Sanjiu, I always say you are stupid. Why did you come in carrying a corpse?"
She went forward to pull Sanjiu, "It's unlucky for anyone to leave a corpse in their home."
“Get up and come with me to find Shen Zhao. He must be angry with me, so he deliberately played a trick on me.”
Sanjiu was motionless and looked desolate. "Miss, please accept my condolences. This is indeed General Shen."
Gu Yao kept backing away, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran out like crazy. Gu Huailing immediately grabbed Gu Yao.
His voice was also a little hoarse, "Yao'er, Chen Zhao is dead."
"You lied to me! Do you dare to tell your sister-in-law this? Do you dare to let her know that her brother is dead?"
“Brother, you don’t dare, so you are lying to me.”
Gu Yao glared at Gu Huailing with red eyes and punched and kicked him.
"I already know."
Shen Yuan appeared behind everyone at some point.
Gu Huailing's expression changed instantly.
Chen Yuan felt an indescribable pain in her heart, although she didn't know what this pain was.
She walked to the white cloth, her mind unconscious, and her hands had already grabbed the white cloth.
