Chapter 158: Edge of Dream



Zi Luo did not say anything, but calmly placed Concubine Shu on the bamboo bed.

Kang Keren reached out her hand to feel her breath and found that it had stopped. Her body was also beginning to lose its temperature. She took a deep breath and said, "She's already dead. Let's bury her."

Zi Luo couldn't believe this reality. There was a layer of mist in her eyes. She frowned slightly and said, "No, she is not dead."

Kang Keren didn't know why she was so persistent, so she turned around helplessly and went outside the hut to continue guarding.

She stayed by Concubine Shu's side, watching her covered in bruises, and had no choice but to take her out of that place, but the best time for treatment had already been missed.

"My queen, don't worry, I will avenge you." Zi Luo closed her eyes with trembling hands, but she couldn't close her eyes. It was as if she was dying with her eyes open.

She will make those people in the palace pay the price! Zi Luo walked out of the hut with a heavy heart. It was already dark, and the bamboo forest was silent, as if no one had passed by for a long time. It was dead silent.

Kang Keren came to her side with a sword in one hand, "Now can you tell me my life story? Where did I come from?"

She slowly closed her eyes, took a deep breath, turned around and looked at her and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you, you were originally the daughter of a merchant in the city, but later you were murdered by a villain, and your entire family was executed. Your enemy is..."

Zi Luo paused here.

The queen had made countless enemies in the palace. No one in the palace could escape her miserable state! The first one was the Gu family.

She directed all her hatred towards the Gu family, especially Gu Junyao. After hearing this, Kang Keren excitedly gripped the sword in her hand, her hands trembling constantly. She had been brainwashed by hatred and believed everything she said.

"Okay, I'm going to massacre the Gu family now!"

After Kang Keren finished speaking, the white figure flew towards the woods and disappeared into the night.

Zi Luo raised the corners of her mouth with satisfaction, waiting for the bombing in the capital early tomorrow morning.

Kang Keren flashed into the Gu family's door like a ghost. The housekeeper Lai Fu looked at the movement at the door curiously, thinking that it was because the wind was too strong at night. He was about to close the door, but suddenly a shiny dagger stabbed his chest.

He fell down before he could even react to what was happening.

Gu Yan and Mrs. Gu were resting on the couch when they vaguely heard some noise at the door. They put on their coats and went out to take a look. Before they could even see the person coming, he had already fallen in a pool of blood.

The Gu family was brutally wiped out. When Gu Junyao heard about this, she collapsed immediately and ran to the Yangxin Palace to ask the emperor for help.

The emperor was quite shocked when he heard this from Gu Junyao, and immediately summoned the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice to get to the bottom of the matter!

Gu Junyao's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her body sat down like a puddle of mud.

The emperor felt very distressed and called the imperial physician to treat her.

She frowned and was helped back to the Yanxi Palace.

After Rong Zhen learned about this, he immediately went to the Yangxin Palace to discuss it with his brother.

Watching Gu Junyao being carried out, he was a little worried that Yunru would not be able to cope after learning the truth.

"Royal brother, you came at the right time. I was just about to discuss this with you. This matter is really too strange. There is no such deep hatred between the government and the Gu family. Who is it that has committed such a vicious act?"

Such a vicious incident happened right under the emperor's feet, and the emperor was embarrassed.

Rong Zhen was very calm and composed. He came to the emperor and said, "Brother, this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated by the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple. I will definitely get to the bottom of it."

"Okay, since Lady Jun has passed out because of this incident, you have to be careful with Princess Zhao and keep it a secret from her for now."

Rong Zhen knew the situation was quite urgent and nodded in agreement.

The scene changed. Gu Yunru didn't know about this yet, so she was not disturbed.

"Princess, this is the lark sent by the prince."

Qingxing happily brought the bird in the cage over. Gu Yunru raised her eyebrows happily and said, "How beautiful! This goose yellow feather will definitely look great if it is made into a palm leaf fan."

When Qing Xing heard this, the corners of her mouth drooped, "Princess, you are too cruel. Such a beautiful bird should be kept in a cage."

"It was just a joke, but you took it seriously."

Gu Yunru raised her finger and poked her head gently, and Qingxing stuck out her tongue playfully and hung the birdcage on the treetop. The palace was very peaceful these days, and Concubine Qian was gradually getting better, but somehow she couldn't speak, and her throat seemed to be damaged.

Qing Xing looked at Gu Yunru and said, "Mrs. Qian is so pitiful. Her voice has been damaged since her miscarriage. I don't know if the people from the Ministry of Justice have found Zi Luo."

"I think so."

Gu Yunru brought food to feed the bird, and the lark's call was indeed clear and moving.

"Why did Your Majesty suddenly think of giving me this?" Gu Yunru was a little surprised by his action.

"Princess, the prince gave you this because he loves you." Qingxing smiled secretly, but she didn't expect that the princess couldn't even sense this.

"Ahem, Qingxing, you've become more and more eloquent lately."

Gu Yunru glanced at her with sharp eyes, and Qingxing didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

Yanxi Palace.

When Achou heard that Gu Junyao had fainted, he immediately sneaked in through the window to check. Lan'er thought it was a thief and stood up from the ground like a frightened bird. Only when she found out that it was Achou did she slowly pat her chest.

"A Chou, didn't the Queen tell you that you can't enter the Yanxi Palace without orders?"

Lan'er walked forward with a pale face and slightly red eyes.

"What's wrong with her?"

Achou looked at Gu Junyao lying on the bed from a distance and had no intention of getting closer.

Lan'er sobbed softly and sighed through her nose.

"Something happened at the Gu Mansion..."

When Lan'er first learned about this, she almost fainted.

"What's going on?" Achou asked impatiently.

"Someone, someone sneaked into the Gu Mansion last night and killed the master and his wife..."

Lan'er lowered her head, her crystal tears falling like beads from a broken string.

Ah Chou clenched his fists angrily and asked, "Do you know who did this?"

"I don't know. The emperor has summoned people from the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice to find the real culprit."

But there was no one alive in the mansion, and no one had seen what the real murderer looked like. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"I understand." After saying this, Ah Chou turned and walked out. Lan'er wanted to call him, but during this sensitive period, he couldn't show up in public.

Ah Chou walked out of the palace without being noticed. He was extremely good at hiding and had excellent martial arts skills.

When they arrived at a purple bamboo forest in the suburbs, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Can we come out now?" Ah Chou had noticed early on that there was a martial arts master following him. Qingfeng slowly came out, holding the Double Dragon Sword in his hand.
