It was already early morning of the next day when Gu Jinke walked out of the room in the inn exhausted and pale. Two beauties followed behind her, lazily hooked the hair on her temples, showing a satisfied smile, and then walked forward to hook her arms on the left and right.
"Wife~"
Gu Jinke forced a smile. The waiter who had gotten up early to clean the shop looked at Gu Jinke with understanding and envy.
There were some ambiguous words and panting sounds last night, which kept many people awake. And they did it non-stop. In the early stage, it was the young lady who came from afar who played with flowers, and in the second half of the night, the voice of the little princess dominated the whole night. This made the second sister sigh that it was still better to be from a wealthy and aristocratic family, living happily like a god every day.
She made the decision with tears in her eyes that she must be born into a good family in her next life!
As the second sister thought so, her eyes fell on another door, and she saw that door was also pushed open, and a pale little princess walked out. With the pale-faced Gu Jinke in front, the pale little princess was not at all out of place. Besides, everyone in the inn heard the little princess's cheerful voice last night, so it was understandable that she was a little pale. She just had to go back and take some medicine to replenish her body.
After all, Gu Jinke is accompanied by two beauties, while the little princess is only one person. From this perspective, the little princess seems a little "useless"! The second sister looked at the little princess's more muscular figure and smiled knowingly.
Gu Jinke brought Qiao Xi and Li Yuxin with him, and naturally saw the little princess Wanqi Hong come out. She glanced at the other person's pale face and raised her eyebrows playfully: "How was your day yesterday, little princess?"
The little girl Wanqihong didn't expect to meet the devil Gu Jinke as soon as she came out. At this moment, there was no trace of greed in her eyes. Wanqi Hong's pupils shrank violently, his body froze, and he just wanted to shrink back to the place which he regarded as hell.
Just thinking of the horrific experience last night and the warnings she received before she opened the door, she could only suppress the instinct to shrink and dodge, and tried her best to pretend to be calm and said: "I had a very happy time yesterday."
As soon as he said this, his voice was already hoarse.
Second sister: This is too much. Is this what happened to your voice? What kind of beauty is in this room?
Gu Jinke was also stunned for a moment, and when he saw the expression of the second sister from the corner of his eye, he was even more delighted, and said meaningfully, "It seems that the little princess is indeed living a very good life."
The little princess Wanqi Hong's pampered temper was almost ignited, but when she looked up and saw Gu Jinke's face, she felt a sense of fear, and the fists that she had just clenched were affected by various parts of her body.
In an instant, along with her clenched fists, all her limbs felt numb and she couldn't exert any strength. Every part of her body was in pain. Her face turned even paler and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Now, let alone wanting to lose her temper, just standing there straight, the little princess Wanqi Hong felt she had no strength at all.
Gu Jinke paused his hand that was touching his chin when he saw her like this. He looked at the two men behind him with a hidden gaze. The fake pills they were fiddling with were quite powerful.
However, as a vested interest, Gu Jinke was still very happy. She looked at the room that the little princess's guards had entered last night, her eyes moved slightly, and she smiled and said, "It's dawn now, and we should have had enough rest. It's time for the little princess to take us out to have some fun!"
The little princess followed her gaze and her heart tightened again. She thought the person serving her was probably in danger. But the next moment, the door opened and several women with pale faces walked out.
It was the guards and servants who followed the little princess last night.
The second sister was sweeping the yard. She was used to it and could only suppress the excitement and envy in her heart.
She heard Gu Jinke say, "It seems that everyone was served very comfortably last night."
Several guards heard her voice and retreated without leaving a trace, but they did not dare to retreat too far. They smiled reluctantly and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, Miss."
"Okay, okay!" Gu Jinke clapped his hands and smiled.
"Let's go have breakfast first. We can discuss anything after breakfast." Gu Jinke led his people to the front hall of the inn. The second sister watched the little princess and the others quickly follow them and became more diligent.
The lobby of the inn was still very lively, but everyone's attention was vaguely on Gu Jinke and his group. After all, their table is considered to be the representative of the "powerful" - little princess, "rich" - Gu Jinke, not to mention that Gu Jinke is accompanied by two beauties?
What surprised everyone was that the little princess, who usually had a bad temper and was self-centered, seemed to really admire Gu Jinke. Not only did she speak in a gentle tone, but she was also very submissive, which made people even feel a little jealous. But something even more jealous happened.
When the waitress in the front hall finished serving breakfast, she saw the red-dressed beauty Li Yuxin beside Gu Jinke had already picked up a dumpling, blew on it with her red lips, and then fed it to Gu Jinke: "Wife, try this dumpling, it's white and plump, and delicate and translucent, it's really lovely."
Gu Jinke opened his mouth and ate it. The taste was indeed fresh, and he nodded immediately: "Not bad, you can eat it too, you don't need to serve me."
On the other side, the young man in blue was not to be outdone. He scooped a small spoonful of steaming soup, blew on it, and passed it to Gu Jinke: "Winter is dry, Your Highness should try more of the nourishing soup every day. Otherwise, if you are affected, I will be blamed."
Gu Jinke drank the soup.
Seeing this scene yesterday, Little Princess Wanqihong was eager to make a move, but today she only felt indescribable fear. She simply couldn't stay there. She swallowed the breakfast in front of her without caring whether it was hot or not. Her entire mouth was numb, but she only felt happy. She said in a hoarse voice: "...Sister...! Why don't I go back to the mansion first? I remember that my mother told me yesterday that I should take turns with her to guard the city gate today."
Her sister was screaming in fear. Gu Jinke looked up as the two beauties competed to serve her and glanced at her nonchalantly. At this time, Qiao Xi was holding a handkerchief to wipe her hands. Gu Jinke turned his hand over and let him do it. Then he smiled lazily and said, "Sister, go ahead. I believe... Sister will definitely bring me good news, right?"
The little princess Wanqihong's face turned pale: "Yes."
Gu Jinke pulled out his hand that Qiao Xi was wiping carefully and waved at her, "Then go ahead. Sister, you must remember the ecstasy of yesterday. You can take it out more often to savor it when you are free."
Wanqihong's face turned even paler, with fear flashing in his eyes: "Yes, I'll go back first."
As she spoke, she stood up quickly, even tripping over the chair she was sitting on in her panic. The little princess, who usually ignored such things, froze, turned around, picked up the chair, said goodbye to Gu Jinke again, and left in a hurry.
Gu Jinke looked at her panicked look, with satisfaction flashing in his eyes. They were almost done eating, so she took them back to the house in the courtyard. Everyone could see clearly what the little princess was doing, and with her intimidating them, no one dared to block Gu Jinke's way, and Gu Jinke returned to the courtyard unimpeded.
After closing the door, there was no need to act anymore. Gu Jinke breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his arms which were tightly held by Li Yuxin and Qiao Xi.
Li Yuxin and Qiao Xi felt her gaze and could only slowly let go. They looked at each other and saw the reluctance and regret in each other's eyes.
In fact, you can keep acting.
The two of them thought this way, but they knew it was unrealistic and they were eagerly looking forward to the next performance.
Xun Ji was already waiting in the room. When he saw the interaction between his prince and the two young masters, a smile flashed in his eyes, but he quickly turned his head to hide it.
Gu Jinke sat in the main seat, his expression more serious: "How long do you think it will take for this little princess to bring us the results?"
Thinking of the panicked look of the little princess Wanqihong, Qiao Xi curled her hair and said, "Within a day or two, there will be a result."
Li Yuxin nodded in agreement.
Xun Ji also nodded: "This little princess is used to a life of luxury and is very afraid of death."
Gu Jinke nodded. The little princess lived in Bamen City, and no one had ever dared to go against her wishes. In addition, due to her mother's pampering and indulgence, she did a lot of dirty things in private. Last night was probably the only time she fell since she was born.
But when it comes to this, Xun Ji still bowed to Li Yuxin, with some admiration and lingering fear in his eyes: "It is so smooth, and Master Li's pills played a big role."
The pills that the little princess took yesterday were adulterated. The original aphrodisiac function was still retained, and it was even more powerful. It also produced some other effects, which made the little princess spend an "unforgettable" night last night. Xun Ji captured the little princess with almost no effort, and tortured her to make her scream all night. He also held the little princess' life in his hands, making her do whatever they wanted.
Li Yuxin smiled slightly: "It's nothing. I have to thank Mr. Qiao for his help. The pills were added with auxiliary materials to make them so successful."
After all, the materials were all provided by Qiao Xi. She had a caravan passing through here before and brought back a lot of strange poisons for Li Yuxin. How could he be the only one to take credit for such a cruel feat in the eyes of outsiders? Qiao Xi couldn't be an innocent little green grass.
Josh, who was about to hide in this achievement, said: …
Having such a love rival is really annoying. He doesn't remember the good things but shares the bad things with you. The two of them instantly had a fight and sparks flew.
Gu Jinke was quite impressed by the fact that the two of them still had so much energy.
She didn't have any prejudice against the fact that two people were making poison. After all, she was a vested interest now, and Li Yuxin and Qiao Xi had good methods. Gu Jinke was also relieved that if the two of them encountered any danger alone, they would not be powerless to resist.
She performed a play in the first half of last night, and interrogated the little princess and the guards in the second half. She had not slept all night, and coupled with the fatigue of the journey, she was extremely tired.
"Okay, since there's nothing else to do, you all go down and rest. I need to rest too. If I'm lucky, I should be able to receive good news when I wake up."
She said as she walked towards the bed.
Xun Ji understood what she meant and stepped back immediately.
Li Yuxin and Qiao Xi rolled their eyes. They originally wanted to be smart and stay, but when they saw the paleness and fatigue on Gu Jinke's face, their expressions froze and they all kept silent tacitly.
Gu Jinke took off his shoes and socks and lay down on the bed, pinching his brows. Li Yuxin couldn't bear to see him, and hesitated for a moment before leaving: "Your Highness, I won't disturb you. I'll give you a massage and I'll quietly leave when you fall asleep?"
He had served his father, who was frail and easily frightened, and learned a lot about this.
Qiao Xi did the same: "I did a good job too, let's help His Highness to press it."
When he was a child, he lived under the care of his partial and harsh grandparents. In order to survive and live a better life, he learned a lot of massage methods to please people. However, he was very annoyed at the time and thought that he would never use this massage method to please anyone again. But now seeing how tired Gu Jinke is, I feel fortunate that I have learned this skill.
Gu Jinke didn't want to agree at first, but when she turned her head, she met two pairs of wet eyes. She was silent. Perhaps she had gotten used to their closeness in the past two days, and also used to agreeing to them, so Gu Jinke agreed silently.
The two of them immediately smiled and walked forward.
The two people's skills were indeed amazing. When Gu Jinke woke up, it was already late at night. She moved her body and surprisingly felt relaxed.
Gu Jinke smiled, and then paused. In the room, there were the sounds of two people breathing deeply.
She opened the curtains and saw the candles in the outer room were still burning. The soft candlelight enveloped the entire room. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw two figures sleeping soundly on the ground, their clothes still intact and covered with a quilt.
Gu Jinke frowned, tiptoed down to the bed, carried the two of them to the bed, and tucked the quilts in.
Under the dim candlelight, Gu Jinke sighed softly: "Young Master, your kindness and friendship are so deep that I have no way to repay you."
She sat beside the bed for a long time, then she put on her clothes, stood up, walked out and closed the door.
In the bed, the two people who were originally sleeping soundly slowly opened their eyes, looked at the ceiling, and then curled up in the quilt that Gu Jinke had covered them tightly, feeling the warmth, curled their lips, and fell asleep again.
Gu Jinke stood outside the door, tied his cloak, exhaled a breath of hot air, and rubbed his hands. The weather seemed fine during the day, but at night, heavy snow began to fall, and the courtyard was covered with a thick layer of snow.
Xun Ji had probably been waiting, and when he saw Gu Jinke coming out, he smiled and said, "Your Highness, you should be able to receive good news in about a quarter of an hour. Today, after Wanqi Hong left the inn, he did not return to the palace with his men, but went straight to the military camp to hand over the shift. It was getting dark, and because of the snow, the Duke of Zhenguo and his men withdrew their troops early outside the city to feast and recharge their batteries. The little princess immediately invited all the high-ranking generals in the barbarian army to discuss the latest tricks they had obtained."
"Are all of them gone?" Gu Jinke raised his eyebrows.
"Those who are capable and relied upon have all gone. After all, no one wants to offend the little princess. Some even want to curry favor and gain merit. The generals who stayed behind are usually invisible. What's even more exciting is that the little princess has also invited the lord of Bamen City, her mother." Xun Ji said happily.
Gu Jinke couldn't help but be surprised: "The Lord of Bamen City was so good to her in the past, and she didn't struggle or get tangled at all?"
"Before life and death, these are all empty words. Moreover, the barbarians' etiquette in this regard is far inferior to ours in the Great Jin Dynasty."
Gu Jinke looked at the falling snow and couldn't help but be stunned. Suddenly he thought of the empress in the capital.
She didn't know why she thought of her, but she felt inexplicably sad. She quickly shook her head and shifted her thoughts to the things in front of her.
They didn't have to wait too long. The little princess had good mobility and execution. Gu Jinke soon received a secret message that most of the generals in the army had been under control. Her eyes lit up with excitement and said, "Let the Fifth Princess and the others take action."
Without a leader, the barbarians were like a pile of loose sand. The battle was won with ease and without much effort. Most of the barbarians didn't even have time to react before they were taken prisoner. No one understood how they were defeated or where the leader had gone.
After busy cleaning up the mess, the Fifth Princess and the Duke of Zhenguo were ready to pay a visit to Gu Jinke, but they came back empty-handed again. The two looked at each other, feeling helpless.
Two days ago, they suddenly received a battle plan from Gu Jinke, asking them to cooperate inside and outside to capture Bamen City. Both of them were shocked and worried at the time, but they didn't expect that things would go so smoothly and they captured Bamen City quickly and easily. Just for the safety of the crown prince, the two people originally came to persuade Gu Jingke to go back, but they didn't expect that Gu Jingke would leave first, leaving them with nothing to say.
The two of them couldn't help but sigh, but also became more urgent: "We must speed up and conquer the remaining cities! Otherwise, His Highness will be in more danger in the Barbarian Country!"
Gu Jinke, who was being missed by the two men, estimated the time and dug the two young masters out of bed at daybreak. He then followed the other barbarians who were fleeing in the city and sneaked out of the city.
Just like the Fifth Princess and Lord Zhenhun thought, Gu Jinke was also ready to speed up. Rush to the royal city and make a big splash!
As for her methods, Gu Jinke looked at the little princess Wanqihong kneeling in the carriage and smiled with satisfaction: "You did a good job today."
Wanqi Hong took advantage of the trust and favor and killed all the important generals in Bamen City without knowing why. Then she brought people to Gu Jinke to ask for the antidote for the toxin in her body. Now he has recovered from the fear he had just felt after killing everyone, but his face is still a little pale.
Hearing Gu Jinke's praise, her teeth chattered and her face was filled with fear. What made her so obedient, submissive and fearful was naturally not only the life-threatening poison in her body, but also the fact that the medicine she used to kill the generals in the army and the people who later harvested the generals' heads in the army were all provided by Gu Jinke.
She thought that the army was as iron-clad as an iron barrel, but Gu Jinke also intervened. Moreover, the guards who were once loyal to her are no longer her people and are all in Gu Jinke's hands. She can't see through Gu Jinke at all. The unknown is the most frightening thing.
So now, she could only answer carefully and flatteringly: "It's all because of the master's teaching."
Gu Jinke leaned against the carriage and said, "Not bad, there has been progress. But when we get to the royal city, the little princess must make even greater progress!"
Wanqihong lowered his head and said, "Yes."
Gu Jinke looked at her respectful expression, smiling but with a cold look in his eyes: "Then it's up to the princess to bring people to the royal court to report the death. I'll wait for the little princess's confirmation."
"Yes!" Wanqi Hong responded and stepped back. Then he took his men and rode to the royal court under the cover of night.
Gu Jinke watched her gradually disappearing figure: "Keep a close eye on her. If necessary, let her recall the experience of the previous night and awaken her loyalty."
Otherwise, she was worried about being bitten back by the ungrateful person.
"Yes!" Xun Ji responded.
The situation here is very good, and in the capital, the empress finally received the secret letter from Gu Jinke who was traveling to the barbarian country. After reading the secret letter, the queen burned all the paper and crushed all the ashes until there was no trace of it. Then she suddenly vomited blood and breathed heavily: "This evil girl!"
"Bang!" Fang Rui was so scared that she knelt on the ground and supported the queen: "Your Majesty, you..."
The Queen has not been feeling well these days. She has not recovered from the cold she caught last time, but this is the first time she has vomited blood. She opened her mouth to call for the imperial physician, but the Queen covered her mouth with her hand and said, "Don't call for the imperial physician. Call someone to deal with it quietly."
Fang Rui opened her eyes wide, but the Queen ignored her. Her gaze fell on the pool of blood. She was stunned for a long time, and the look in her eyes gradually became desolate. Then her gaze moved to the pile of ashes, and anger rose in her eyes again. She really didn't expect Gu Jinke to be so bold that he dared to take his men directly into the barbarian country after being assassinated.
If Gu Jinke was standing in front of her now, she would definitely catch him and beat him with a stick. As the crown prince of a country, he dared to take such a risk!
She suddenly started coughing rapidly.
Fang Rui was cleaning up the pool of blood herself. When she heard her coughing heart-wrenchingly, she hurriedly brought her some warm water.
I don’t know what kind of news His Majesty read that made him so angry.
She thought about it, but instinctively did not dare to think about it too much, let alone the blood that His Majesty vomited this time. His Majesty had been ill for too long and too seriously this time.
When the coughing in the room stopped, the entire hall returned to its usual quietness.
The empress walked slowly around the hall with her hands behind her back, and her expression gradually calmed down. The whole hall was heated by floor heating because of the cold winter, but Fang Rui occasionally glanced at the hall, which had only two floors, and still felt cold.
As if she had made up her mind, the empress slowly returned to the Phoenix Chair and looked at Fang Rui: "Clean up all traces and let the prime minister come to see me."
She paused, as if she was a little hesitant: "Tomorrow, you will secretly bring Minister Xue to see me."
"From today on, I will be recuperating and will not see anyone from the harem!"
The author has something to say:
The two young masters wish they could have such scenes every day, hahaha
