Bei Mingxuan was still dressed in a white robe, his hair tied with a jade belt. He leaned against a bamboo chair, holding a pot of wine. He looked lazy, as if he had been soaked in wine. He glanced at him nonchalantly and said leisurely, "It's half an hour later than I expected."
Gu Changan did not shy away from the topic and spoke directly, "The Ninth Prince sincerely invited me, and I dare not refuse. But why did you take Changan's things? I hope the Ninth Prince will return them."
"Want it?" Bei Mingxuan loosened his grip, and the dominoes dangled from his fingers. "Come and get it yourself!"
Gu Changan frowned, not quite believing that he would return it to her so easily, but she still leaned forward. The moment she stretched out her hand, a sword had already fallen in front of her.
He is the guard beside Bei Mingxuan.
Gu Changan quickly dodged and looked at him coldly, "What do you mean, Ninth Prince?"
Bei Mingxuan remained silent and glanced at the guard beside him.
The guards immediately took action, pressing towards Gu Changan step by step, with murderous intent in every move.
After a few rounds, Gu Changan felt overwhelmed. After killing one, another came, as if it would never end.
Especially when I caught a glimpse of Bei Mingxuan's leisurely expression.
He seemed to be in a good mood, with a well-matched smile on his face. He casually took a sip of wine from the pot, looking extremely elegant.
Gu Changan was filled with anger, but he just didn't understand how Bei Mingxuan knew that he knew martial arts, and his test was well prepared.
He suddenly increased the strength in his hands, and the two guards beside him were immediately thrown out.
He turned around and walked towards Bei Mingxuan, slapping his wine jug with his palm, spilling wine all over Bei Mingxuan and also splashing some on his own face.
At the same time, a guard standing by, eager to protect himself, ignored Bei Mingxuan's previous instructions and still injured Gu Chang'an. The sword blade slashed across Gu Chang'an's face.
Surprisingly, there was no bleeding, just a thin layer of skin turned outward.
A small cut reveals the original color of the skin, moist and white, like freshly cooked egg whites.
Bei Mingxuan stared at Gu Changan's face, and slowly the smile between his eyebrows became more and more intense.
He was sure that Gu Chang'an in front of him must have something on his face, covering his true appearance.
But, just when he was stunned, Gu Changan hit Bei Mingxuan on the chest with a palm.
Changan successfully got the dominoes. She smiled brightly at Bei Mingxuan, "I got it!"
But at this moment, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the smile that quickly flashed across Bei Mingxuan's eyes.
In an instant, Chang'an thought of what Aunt Wanxin said before he came here.
There is no perfect person in the world. If someone is so perfect that there is no trace of flaw, there must be something fishy.
Bei Mingxuan deliberately led me to his mansion, he must have had an intention.
In this case, at least we need to know whether this person is an enemy, a friend, or just a stranger.
So, she deliberately tested him, "Chang'an doesn't understand, what does it mean that an idle prince has so many secret guards in his mansion?
You must know that secret guards can only be assigned with the emperor's permission. However, given the status of the ninth prince in the emperor's heart, it is obvious that he is not qualified to be assigned one.
In other words, these secret guards were secretly trained by you. A prince who appears to be powerless, but has an excellent reputation in the court and among the people... This rhythm is simply everything is ready, only the east wind is missing!"
Bei Mingxuan narrowed his eyes, looking at Gu Changan with scrutiny, and raised his hand to stop the guards from continuing. "Back off!"
"yes!"
Murderous intent! Gu Changan felt a sudden and strong murderous intent coming from Bei Mingxuan in front of him.
It turned out that I was right. This person had a purpose. He was not the idle prince in the eyes of the world.
Gu Changan realized that she was in danger and turned around to leave.
Bei Mingxuan was surprised. Although he had intentionally hidden several secret guards in the courtyard, he had not expected that Gu Changan could actually detect it. This showed that all his previous perceptions of her were wrong. "The daughter of the second branch of the general's mansion has truly made this prince look at her in a different light."
Gu Changan was imprisoned by his big hands and had to face him.
Bei Mingxuan raised the corners of his lips and whispered in Gu Changan's ear, "It turns out that you are so stunning under the mask."
As he spoke, he spread out his palms, and what came into view was the ice silkworm mask on Gu Changan's face.
Gu Changan was so surprised that he couldn't believe it. He subconsciously touched his face and found that it was really gone.
I fell accidentally when I was a child and was left with a scar on my face.
Since that day, his father Gu Qingfeng used the so-called "accident" to make Chang'an hide his true appearance.
In her previous life, Gu Changan didn't understand why her father had to hide her true appearance. Even when she married into the Fourth Prince's Mansion, her father didn't remove the ice silkworms on her face. At that time, she resented her father and hated him. She even tried many ways to remove the ice silkworms on her face but failed.
But Gu Changan couldn't believe why it was taken away so easily by Bei Mingxuan.
She didn't know when Bei Mingxuan discovered it, "Give it back to me!"
As he said that, Gu Changan went straight towards Bei Mingxuan, trying to snatch it back.
Bei Mingxuan dodged cleverly and chased him several times. Gu Changan tried to touch the corner of his opponent's clothes every time, but he could never grasp it.
It feels like a cat playing with a mouse.
"If I give it to you, how can this prince appreciate such beauty? No!" Bei Mingxuan is the cat, and Gu Changan is a mouse at this time.
At this moment, Gu Changan clearly realized that Bei Mingxuan was no longer hiding. His martial arts made her feel unfathomable. She used all her strength, but he seemed to be playing games.
"No!" Gu Changan knew very well that the safest thing to do at this moment was to leave.
"Don't you want the dominoes anymore?" Bei Mingxuan held the dominoes in his hand and looked at Gu Changan with a faint smile.
“…”
He took it away again? Gu Changan frowned and said angrily, "I don't want it anymore!"
Don't show off your abilities. If you are not as skilled as others, you are not as skilled as others. If you stay here, you will only be killed. She is not that stupid. Now that she is reborn in Chang'an, she cherishes her life very much.
"Gu Chang'an, actually, it's better to be a little stupid." Bei Mingxuan's eyes were serious. "In the past, Gu Chang'an lived in the general's mansion. Although she lived a cowardly life, she was safe enough. But now, it's hard to say. At least she knows some things she shouldn't know."
Gu Changan didn't know what Bei Mingxuan was going to do, but he would definitely not let himself leave so easily, "The Ninth Prince is just like that. I just tried to test you, and you immediately showed your true colors.
Now I am doubting what the Ninth Prince’s real purpose is.
Did you deliberately dig a pit for Chang'an to jump into? If so, then Chang'an is here to congratulate the Ninth Prince, you have got what you wished for. "
