Chapter 379 What is your relationship?
Listening to Gongsun Yushu's increasingly confident laughter, Ding Xiaoqiu felt more and more unsure.
He looked at Zhu Lan, who planned all this, with some trepidation, but found that the latter had a calm expression and did not seem nervous.
Zhu Qingyan also frowned slightly and glanced at Zhu Lan hesitantly as if he wanted to say something.
Looking at her expression, could it be that she had already anticipated Gongsun Yushu's plan?
Zhu Qingyan took a lot of effort to suppress the urge to ask a question.
You can’t ask, you can’t ask, if you ask you’ll look like a fool.
Anyway, since Zhu Lan has figured it out, I'd better just wait and see what happens.
Sure enough, not long after Gongsun Yushu's laughter died down, the sound of horse hooves came from far away outside the government office, and it sounded like many people were coming towards this side quickly.
Amid the chaotic sound of horse hooves, there was even the sound of armor. It sounded like... an army?
Ding Xiaoqiu's expression changed a little, and he looked at Gongsun Yushu with wide eyes.
Although the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion is powerful in Yunzhou, it has no military power.
How could they mobilize the garrison outside Yunzhou City? ?
Gongsun Yushu glanced at the people in front of him with pity and mockery, then strode towards the door, ready to open it to receive them.
At the end of the long street, a team of Silver Dragon Cavalry came galloping, and the one in red at the head was extremely dazzling. It was Murong Jing in a battle robe.
"Are we not too late?" Murong Jing had already skillfully dismounted from the horse before the horse had even stopped and asked.
Gongsun Yushu hurriedly went to greet him, "Haha, not too late, not too late, the princess has arrived at the perfect time."
He pointed to the government office and said, "The rebels are inside. It's dangerous. I wanted to take the county yamen runners to control them first, but I didn't expect that County Magistrate Liao was secretly captured by them. Even the people in the county yamen were replaced!"
Murong Jing's brows tightened, "How dare you be so bold?"
Gongsun Yushu added fuel to the fire and said a few more words, which made Murong Jing furious.
"How dare you to cause chaos in Yunzhou City? Do you think I, Murong Jing, am just a decoration?"
She raised the spear in her hand and rushed into the yard with a murderous aura.
Gongsun Yushu followed closely behind, the corners of his mouth unable to suppress their upward movement.
In the end, I won the game today.
Not to mention those ants in the yard who want to shake the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion, what can she do even if she is Princess Ning Yue?
Wasn't it because I played him in the palm of my hand with just a few words?
Murong Jing walked into the yard with murderous intent. Although it was dark at night, Zhu Qingyan recognized her at the first sight.
"Ajing!?" She walked forward happily, looking at Murong Jing, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, with surprise and excitement.
Since the last time we parted, Ajing seemed to be a little taller than me.
"Young Master?" Murong Jing was stunned for a moment, and the murderous aura on her body suddenly dissipated.
"W-Why are you here?"
She looked at Zhu Qingyan in surprise and stretched out her left hand to hold his shoulder, but was afraid that she would hurt her if she used too much force, so she could only stand there and smile foolishly.
"My little princess, how are you?"
Zhu Lan and Liang Zhou also came forward and bowed to Murong Jing with smiles on their faces.
"Hey, you guys...oh, and Xiao Qiu, why are you all here?" Murong Jing clasped his fists and greeted each of them one by one, looking very surprised.
Zhu Lan smiled slightly, "You'll have to ask the young princess's son, the Ning'an Earl."
Only then did Murong Jing remember what she was here for.
"Brother Gongsun, didn't you say there were traitors plotting rebellion? Where are the traitors?"
Gongsun Yushu's expression at this moment was extremely brilliant, like a palette.
It was as if the joy from moments before had not yet faded from his face, and it turned into extreme confusion and shock.
Murong Jing saw him like this, and after a while she seemed to understand something. She pointed at Zhu Qingyan and the others with a strange tone.
"You're not going to tell me... they're rebels?"
Gongsun Yushu nodded mechanically.
Murong Jing's eyes were filled with some concern. After struggling for a long time, she couldn't help but ask:
"I'm not saying anything, Brother Gongsun... Did you secretly ride a horse and hit your head?"
The people in front of me are not only my classmates in the academy back then.
When the archery club was founded in the academy, Liang Zhou was considered half of his apprentice.
Zhu Lan and the young master had previously gone deep into the enemy camp and risked their lives in order to quell the Great Purification Rebellion.
Such a loyal person is now called a traitor?
Murong Jing's face looked unhappy. "If you insist on saying that they are traitors, then fine. But where is the evidence?"
Gongsun Yushu suddenly reacted, "Yes, yes, there is evidence! The evidence is..."
Then he froze in place again.
The evidence originally prepared was Ding Wangyuan's confession with his fingerprints.
But just now... Ding Wangyuan didn’t press it at all!
"What are you daydreaming about? I'm asking you for evidence." Murong Jing's voice became a little louder, revealing a bit of impatience.
"You have no evidence, but you wrote to me and asked me to mobilize all my men and rush into Yunzhou City?"
"Do you think we have nothing to do every day in the military camp to play this kind of game with you?"
Gongsun Yushu was already a little panicked, "No, Princess, listen to me... Look, we have such a close relationship, you have to believe me, they really are..."
Zhu Qingyan grabbed Murong Jing's arm and glared at Gongsun Yushu in a demonstrative manner.
"What is your relationship with Ajing?"
Gongsun Yushu choked.
Zhu Qingyan shook Murong Jing's arm somewhat unwillingly.
"Ah Jing, this guy is really bad. Are you familiar with him?"
Murong Jing still had an unhappy look on her face the moment before, but when she looked at Zhu Qingyan, it turned into a silly smile.
"Just acquaintance, not familiar."
Gongsun Yushu: “?”
Murong Jing looked at Gongsun Yushu again, the smile on her face disappeared, and she frowned and said:
“Brother Gongsun, I made an exception and brought people here for the sake of the Ning’an Marquis’s residence.
How can I explain to everyone how you acted like this?"
"I..." Gongsun Yushu was still thinking about how to defend himself, but Zhu Qingyan was already unhappy.
"Ajing, you already call him Brother Gongsun, and you still say you are not familiar with him!" Zhu Qingyan stomped his feet and said angrily.
Murong Jing was stunned and quickly explained: "Ah, no, I..."
Earl Ning An had a good relationship with his father, and he and Gongsun Yushu did have a little... very thin friendship.
I recalled the last time I was invited into the city by Gongsun Yushu, and saw the owner of Yongye Tea House and the servants of Ning'an Earl's Mansion arguing and making a scene at the county government office.
The servants of the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion were wrongly accused by the shopkeeper Zhou, but Gongsun Yushu did not bully them by taking advantage of his power. Instead, he asked the County Magistrate Liao to make an impartial judgment, which shows that he is still an upright person.
I don't have a close relationship with him, but I don't hate him either.
Is there some misunderstanding between the young master and the Bo family?
