There was a flash of impatience in Gu Jinke's eyes.
I had originally told Xin Shuang to avoid this guy, but I didn't expect to run into him again when I just came back!
She didn't want to care about it and let him go. This guy is still waving the whip in front of her!
"Gong Zhongxing! Get out of the way! I have something important to tell you." She frowned and shouted.
She also wanted to go back earlier to arrange matters in Qingcheng Prefecture.
When the people around heard this, they suddenly realized that it was indeed the young master of the Gongzhong family. No wonder he dared to challenge Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. Only this man and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess were simply enemies. But no matter how the two of them quarreled, the Empress and the Prime Minister did not care. The few times when they quarreled too much, they were both punished with thirty lashes and the matter was over.
"Oh! Important matters!" Gong Zhongxing snorted coldly, with the sarcasm on his lips becoming more and more intense.
"Don't you do nothing every day? What important things can you do?" This girl is comfortable and at ease as a princess. She handles government affairs perfunctorily every day and doesn't care about the position of princess at all. What important things can she do!
He just couldn't understand why Gu Jinke didn't make such progress, she was still the Crown Princess, Her Majesty the Queen, Grandmother and he still supported her.
Wouldn't it be better to have someone else become the princess and love and care for the people of the world?
As he thought about it, he didn't hold back and swung the whip, heading straight for the carriage.
Gu Jinge was simply annoyed: "Xun Ji!"
Xun Ji looked at the flying whip, his eyes became sharp, and he moved as fast as lightning to grab the tail end of the whip. The two of them were at the head and tail, and the whip was straight in the air.
Gong Zhongxing glanced at Xun Ji, who was a guard specially trained by the royal family to protect the princess' life. As soon as Xun Ji made a move, he knew he could not defeat him. However, when he thought about meeting Gu Jinke as soon as he returned to the capital, he was in a really bad mood.
Now he could no longer hold back his anger because Gu Jinke had asked Xun Ji to take action.
The servants behind him were already worried when they saw him angry. Now they saw that the young master's brows were even more angry, and they were afraid that he would do something. They didn't care about anything else and knelt down and said, "Young master, let's go back to the mansion first. The master is still waiting."
This is a fight with Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess in the street. The young master has a noble status and is favored by the Queen, so he will be fine. But those who follow him out will definitely suffer!
Gu Jinke was not going to get entangled with him. It would be fruitless to get entangled with Gong Zhongxing. She glanced at Xun Ji.
Xun Ji understood what she meant, and immediately used his clever strength to break the whip away from Gong Zhongxing's hand and snatched it away. The whip was made very delicately and beautifully, and it was obvious that it was worth a lot of money. There was even a beautiful jade gourd hanging on the handle of the whip, which was inappropriate.
Xun Ji drew out his sword and placed it next to the whip, with a strong threat in his expression.
Young Master Gongzhong has always cherished beautiful things and weapons, and hates incompleteness and imperfection. Threatening him to carry a beautiful whip with him should be very useful.
But unexpectedly, this time, when the thing slipped out of his hand, Young Master Gongzhong not only looked panicked, but also became nervous when he saw Xun Ji's sword, and shouted in a stern voice: "You dare!"
He immediately turned around and looked at Gu Jinke: "Tell her to put away the sword!"
The royal family's exclusive guards are loyal to their masters in all matters of life and death, and will not obey orders from anyone else.
Although Gu Jinke was surprised by his extremely extreme reaction today, she was not thinking about it and nodded casually: "Just get out of the way." Don't block her from returning home.
Gong Zhongxing immediately rode his horse back a few steps, his eyes fixed on the whip. His horse paused slightly, and he saw Xun Ji's sword reflecting the cold light and moving slightly.
"Gu Jinke!" Gong Zhongxing shouted angrily immediately. He had already retreated, but Xun Ji's sword was still moving.
"Not enough." Gu Jinke said with an indifferent look. If they stopped at this distance, she and Xun Ji would probably not go far before they would be stopped by this man who was making a comeback.
Gong Zhongxing gritted his teeth, but he had to retreat again and again, but his eyes were still fixed on the whip, even... on a certain part of the whip.
Gu Jinke couldn't help but feel curious when he saw that this usually arrogant man was so easily restrained today.
What is the magic weapon to restrain him?
She casually followed Gong Zhongxing's line of sight, and then slowly landed on the handle of the whip.
There, an exquisite and small jade gourd was hung inappropriately. The jade color was clear and very beautiful. There was also a string on the jade gourd, which tightly connected it to the handle.
The knot of the net was also very beautiful, and it was woven into the shape of a "star".
Gu Jinke was originally just looking at him casually, but his gaze suddenly froze at a certain moment and his face turned slightly pale.
She couldn't help but reach out to take it. She had been staring at Gong Zhongxing but suddenly exploded: "Gu Jinke! You are not allowed to touch it!"
As he spoke, he pointed his toes and, using the horse's force, hurried towards Gu Jinke, his hand stretched out, pointing at the whip with a clear target.
But how could he be in time? Gu Jinke was right next to the whip. He had already reached out and grasped the whip handle, and then his other slender hand trembled slightly as he grasped the rope and jade gourd.
Gong Zhongxing was also fast and had already arrived. Seeing this, he slapped Gu Jinke's shoulder. How could Xun Ji let her hit Gu Jinke? She was not polite and was about to send out a palm to repel him, but was stopped by Gu Jinke in a low voice: "Xun Ji."
Xun Ji was slightly stunned and stopped his hand, but Gong Zhongxing's palm force did not stop and continued to move forward. Gu Jinke held the belt and jade gourd in one hand, let go of the whip handle with the other, and then grabbed Gong Zhongxing's wrist.
Gu Jinke lowered his head and didn't look at him, but the tip of his other finger carefully rubbed the lines on the silk cord, and said in a low voice: "This is...his thing."
Gong Zhongxing calmed down when she grabbed his wrist. His face was full of ridicule and disgust. He glanced at Gu Jinke's current appearance and said in a sharp and disgusted tone, "So what? Are you worthy of taking his things?"
Gu Jinke's face suddenly turned pale, and her hands trembled, almost unable to hold the things in her hands. She growled, "Gong Zhongxing!"
Gong Zhongxing sneered, who was he trying to show off to by pretending to be so pitiful? Did Gu Jinke think that he was the kind of person who wouldn't let her suffer any injustice?
"Give it back." He was not polite either. With his empty hand, he directly pried open Gu Jinke's hands that were tightly holding the jade and bracelet. Gu Jinke obviously had the strength to hold his other hand, but at the moment he did not have the strength to protect the things in his palms. He and Gong Zhongxing fought for the toys like children fighting for toys, but in the end he was still powerless and Gong Zhongxing snatched the things in his hands away.
Gong Zhongxing looked at the things he had snatched back, then looked at Gu Jinke's expression, and suddenly laughed happily.
He struggled to free his hand from Gu Jinke's grip, took out a clean handkerchief from his bosom, and carefully wiped the jade gourd and the silk cord that Gu Jinke was holding. Then, in front of Gu Jinke, he threw the handkerchief in his hand to the pale-faced attendant who followed him behind him and said, "Burn it when you get back."
The servant was trembling and felt limp all over. Young Master... How could Young Master be so bold!
Xun Ji's face looked grim and her hands were clenched tightly. As long as Gu Jinke gave an order, she would definitely make this man pay.
Gu Jinke, however, was in a daze, his eyes fixed on the thing in Gong Zhongxing's hand.
Gong Zhongxing finished wiping the things. His mood seemed to have recovered. He glanced at Gu Jinke, ignored him, turned back, jumped on his horse, and with the sound of horse hooves, he soon disappeared at the end of the street.
Xun Ji bowed his head slightly: "Your Highness."
Gu Jinke closed his eyes: "Let's go back home."
After returning home, Gu Jinke locked himself in the study and said he had something to do. However, she and Gong Zhongxing had a narrow encounter in the streets, and the tense situation between them was talked about by the people in the capital, and soon the news spread throughout the capital.
Xin Shuang naturally knew that if she knew that His Highness was going to have a close encounter with Young Master Gongzhong, she should have informed His Highness in advance and avoided the encounter, so as to avoid getting angry and having a headache every time she saw this young master.
She secretly sighed at her mistake, but saw Xun Ji coming to her on his own initiative.
Xin Shuang was surprised. Xun Ji only obeyed the orders of His Highness. What was he doing here? Xun Ji crossed his arms, holding her sword, and spoke directly: "Your Highness saw an old thing from an old friend on Gong Zhongxing today."
Xin Shuang almost fell to the ground: "What did you say?"
Xun Ji frowned: "I've already said it once, I don't want to say it a second time!"
Besides, His Highness doesn't like it either.
It’s not that Xin Shuang didn’t hear it clearly, he was just so surprised that he suspected that what he heard was fake: “Are you sure?”
Xun Ji nodded. Her Highness’s expression could not lie. She rarely lost her composure like this. The last time was when they met the Queen in the Imperial Mausoleum.
Gong Zhongxing's mood was not right either.
Xin Shuangtou turned around several times on the spot. His Highness had been in a good mood these days, but suddenly became confused. She wanted to say something, but couldn't. In the end, she could only sigh slightly. Forget it, this matter depends on His Highness himself.
However, Xun Ji's mention of this matter reminded her of her old friend, whom she hadn't thought of for a long time.
But the pavilions and towers in front of me were exquisite, and the old friend seemed to still be standing there, dressed in a blue shirt, with delicate and gentle features, a faint smile between his eyebrows, gentle and tolerant, wise and peaceful...
"Butler Xin Shuang, the prince is calling you." The little servant came running over and interrupted Xin Shuang's thoughts. She sighed and then restrained the emotions on her face to prevent Gu Jinke from noticing anything and being infected by her emotions. Then he hurried to the study.
But when she arrived at the study and saw Gu Jinke, Xin Shuang quickly suppressed the surprise in her eyes. The prince no longer showed any different emotions, so she began to calmly give her orders.
Gu Jinke took out a map and said, "In a few days, I will go to Qingcheng Prefecture. Please assign some people. Please keep in touch with me."
She frowned. Although she didn't want to assume the worst of others, it involved so many people in Qingcheng Prefecture. The original princess in the book had already been defeated, and she would not allow herself to make mistakes.
She hesitated for a moment, then handed the bamboo tube in her hand to Xin Shuang: "If I go to Qingcheng Prefecture and things don't go well, you can open the bamboo tube and check again."
Xin Shuang was stunned for a moment and took it.
Gu Jinke also explained some other arrangements in detail. Xin Shuang also agreed to them one by one.
She just felt it was strange. It wouldn't be too late for His Highness to explain these things in a few days.
After explaining everything, Xin Shuang was about to leave as usual. As soon as she took a step, she saw Gu Jinke leaning on the desk with his hands, his back slightly bent, his eyes blank, looking into the void.
Xin Shuang stopped in his tracks, his throat choked, his heart ached, and he couldn't help but persuade, "Your Highness, you can go see Master Ze."
