"Chen Jinheng, thank you for everything you've done for me."
Thank you for writing the notice for me and clearing my name.
"Luo'er, come back with me! Let's start over, okay?"
Gu Qianlu felt heavy-hearted and said helplessly, "But I don't want to leave the Free and Unfettered Sect yet, do you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinheng's eyes darkened, and he clenched his fists tightly as he spoke firmly to her.
"Luo'er! I'll wait for you! I'll wait until the day you decide to leave the Xiaoyao Sect."
I'll come pick you up again, okay?
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo's eyes showed a hint of helplessness, and she nodded gently.
"Chen Jinheng, did you already know that I am the daughter of the Gu family?"
I vaguely remember when I was reborn, the news of Gu Qianxue's affair with the Second Prince spread throughout the capital overnight.
At that time, Gu Qianluo was the Second Prince's betrothed, and Gu Qianxue was also betrothed to the Marquis's family.
This matter could absolutely not have originated from the Second Prince's residence.
"Luo'er, you're so smart. Let me explain this to you."
"What? General Chen, is there some other trouble you're facing?"
"Actually, I already knew you were a daughter of the Gu family before I went to war with Chu Qiang."
At that time, I was just an unknown nobody, and I thought that I would wait until I returned with meritorious service before I would ask my father to arrange a marriage for you.
Fortunately, my grandmother loved me dearly, and she promised to arrange my marriage when I returned.
But when I returned victorious from battle, I discovered that the woman I was to marry was none other than your own sister.
"So, you're arranging for Gu Qianxue and the Second Prince to allow me to be married off to my younger sister, is that it?"
Gu Qianluo narrowed her eyes and stared intently at the man in front of her.
His eyes were deep and unfathomable, and the depth of his thoughts was unfathomable.
Chen Jinheng's heart sank. After a long silence, he responded softly, "Mm."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo felt a surge of anger. It turned out that everything she had experienced had been orchestrated.
Although they managed to avoid the wolf that was the Second Prince, they couldn't escape the tiger that was Chen Jinheng.
She gave Chen Jinheng a deep look, then suddenly got up and walked towards the side room.
"Luo'er! The kitchen has prepared a meal, please have some."
"Chen Jinheng! I don't want to see you right now!"
"Alright! Alright! I'll go! I'll have the kitchen send the meal to your room."
With a snap, Gu Qianluo quickly closed the door, shutting Chen Jinheng out.
She slowly walked to a corner of the room, where a mahogany box containing Xiao Cui and Shui Yao's immortal bones was temporarily placed.
"Xiao Cui, Shui Yao, I will take you back to Xiaoyao Mountain tomorrow."
Thinking of this, Gu Qianluo quickly tidied up her clothes.
Outside, a tall figure would occasionally flash by.
Gu Qianlu forced herself to regain her composure and changed back into the robes of the Hundred Flowers Sect.
The next day, Gu Qianluo set off for the Xiaoyao Sect early in the morning before dawn.
Chen Jinheng stood on the rooftop, silently watching her figure rush away, a sharp pain welling up in his heart.
"Luo'er, no matter what, I will search the heavens and the underworld to bring you back!"
Xiaoyao Sect
Zhu Ying was processing the letter of entrustment from the Hundred Flowers Sect when Gu Qianluo walked in from outside.
Seeing her pale face, Zhu Ying narrowed her eyes and stepped forward to ask with concern,
"Sect Leader Junlan, why do you look so unwell?"
"It's alright. Has the Hundred Flowers Sect made any unusual moves recently?"
"There's nothing unusual, but I've noticed that Meng Qing and Meng Fan have been acting strangely lately."
"What makes you say that?"
"A few days ago, Mengfan suddenly came to ask his subordinates for leave, saying that his parents were sick and he needed to go back home."
But Mengqing told others that her parents had long since passed away.
The two women were sisters, yet their statements differed so greatly that the subordinates sent someone to inquire about Meng Fan's whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, she became involved with people from Mo Guigu.
"So it was her!"
"What does Sect Master Junlan mean?" Cuiyu asked Gu Qianluo with a puzzled look.
"A few days ago, I was besieged by pursuers."
The person who ultimately tried to kill me was none other than the messenger from Mo Guigu!
It seems we can't keep the Mengqing and Mengfan sisters here any longer.
A sharp glint flashed in her jade-like eyes, and she said in a deep voice, "This subordinate will go and deal with her immediately!"
"Cuiyu (Zhuying), I am going to Ling'an Temple, and then I will return to Shangjing."
Thank you for your help with the Hundred Flowers Sect these past few days!
"Rest assured, Sect Master! I will certainly live up to your expectations and handle the affairs of the Hundred Flowers Sect well."
"Thank you for your trouble! This is a letter that Granny Jiang sent. I brought it over especially for you!"
After leaving behind several letters, Gu Qianluo took Cuiyu and Shuiyao to the sacred site of Ling'an Temple.
Cuiyu took the letter, her eyes overflowing with rare tenderness, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"Sect Leader Junlan, thank you! It is my greatest honor to be your subordinate."
Cuiyu opened the letter and read it carefully. From the contents of the letter, it could be seen that...
Ever since Zhu Ying submitted to Gu Qianluo, she has kept her promise to deliver supplies to Granny Jiang.
This time, Grandma Jiang wrote a letter specifically to express her gratitude.
"Ying'er, your boss Junlan is a good person!"
Not only do they send someone to deliver grain every month, but they also give me a supplement of 10 taels of silver! You'd better work hard!
Cuiyu clutched the letter tightly in her hand, a hint of bitterness rising in her eyes.
"Hehe! Gu Qianluo, just how broad is your heart?"
Do you know how much I envy you? Do you know how much I admire General Chen?
Ling'an Temple
“Master Jingkong, these are my two maids. They both died because of me.”
I buried them here, and I hope the master will help me to deliver these two people from suffering.
