As if that wasn't enough, he continued, "You are not allowed to release them without my permission. If I find out and these two cause any trouble outside, you will all die!"
When the subordinates heard this, they wiped the sweat from their foreheads and agreed heavily.
Although Mrs. Kou, as the mistress of the house, has real power, this does not mean that things can be let go.
"Ask a few guards to guard the door and report back if there is anything." After saying this, Marquis Changping shook his head and turned to leave.
Kou Mingxue and Madam Kou were still making a fuss, but their subordinates no longer paid any attention to them. The Marquis had already spoken, so who could refuse?
Seeing that making a fuss was useless, Kou Mingxue was filled with rage. She slammed the table fiercely and roared, "Gu Yunni, I will never let you go!"
When Gu Yunni heard the news, she found it ridiculous and didn't want to pay any attention to them.
Unexpectedly, an uninvited guest has arrived at this moment.
"Princess, there's a girl outside who calls herself Qing'er. She said she has something important to discuss with you!"
Gu Yunni frowned slightly. Why did Qing'er come here at this time?
Gu Yunni had clearly refused last time. If Qing'er was a smart girl, she would know that some things cannot be forced.
But now it seems that Qing'er didn't listen.
"Please invite the person in first."
As the saying goes, guests are welcome. Gu Yunni sat in the main seat and waited quietly.
As soon as Qing'er entered, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed loudly. "Miss, no, Crown Princess! Please accept me as your servant! We have no status in this Changping Marquis' Mansion! The mansion has lost more than half of its personnel, but Kou Mingxue seems to have a grudge against all of us. I beg you, Miss, to take me away from this place of trouble!"
Hearing this, Gu Yunni frowned slightly and thought for a while, "No, I've already said that it's impossible to take you away. Most importantly, given your current situation, taking you away won't help. I hope you can face reality."
I know that Qing'er has been clamoring to leave with me because she doesn't want to suffer that hardship anymore.
The gloomy aura from Kou Mingxue, coupled with Bai Gu's resentment, is likely to make Qing'er unable to resist.
Thinking of this, Gu Yunni said, "There's something I've been wanting to tell you, but I haven't had the chance. Now that you're here today, I'll tell you directly. Last time you begged me about the bones, I can help you solve it."
Qing'er raised her head suddenly, her eyes full of hope, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Don't worry." Gu Yunni said this and turned to look at her sideways. "But before that, I have a condition that you must agree to."
If she could really find out about the white bones, she wouldn't have any complaints even if Qing'er died here.
Qing'er nodded heavily, then spoke cautiously, "Thank you for your continued concern for this matter. If it is according to your suggestion, how should this matter be resolved?"
Gu Yunni narrowed her eyes slightly, then said coldly: "As the saying goes, the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. We need to catch the person who set up the formation, so that we can ensure safety."
Leaving these words behind, Gu Yunni stood up and said, "I'll take you to see someone."
Although she didn't know who she was going to meet, just by looking at Gu Yunni's expression, she knew that this person must be extraordinary.
Without saying anything more, they quickly got up and left, and soon arrived at the Imperial Master's Mansion.
The Imperial Master stood here, frowning slightly. He knew that Gu Yunni had arrived and felt a little confused.
"Princess, you wouldn't normally look for me. What's going on?"
Gu Yunni felt a little embarrassed, then nodded, "As you said, there are indeed some things I would like to ask for your help."
Facing the Imperial Master, Gu Yunni did not hide anything and told him about the bones.
The Imperial Master seemed a little surprised, then puzzled, "How is this possible? If it's really as you said, things might get even more troublesome!"
As he said that, he quickly came to the lake with the two of them.
As soon as they arrived near the lake, the imperial teacher in front of them seemed a little embarrassed when looking at the situation in front of them.
"Do you see the source of this spell?"
Gu Yunni noticed that the Imperial Master had an ugly expression on his face, and guessed that the other party might have known the truth of the matter.
But I didn't say it directly, for fear that it would affect his judgment.
Seeing how anxious he was, I knew that this matter couldn't be delayed any longer.
Gu Yunni raised her head, looked at him, and said softly, "National Master, don't hide anything from us. Now that it has happened, we must get to the bottom of it. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, the Imperial Master nodded and said, "Then I won't hide it anymore. You're right, there's something fishy about this matter. This corpse...can't be saved."
Hearing this, Gu Yunni looked at Qing'er in embarrassment, "Qing'er, I know you've been brooding over this matter, but you've already seen the situation now. We must ensure your safety. I hope you can leave for the time being."
Gu Yunni tried to make her words as clear as possible to prevent Qing'er from thinking too much.
Besides, from what the Imperial Master said just now, Gu Yunni already understood that his thoughts were exactly the same as hers.
That is, this skeleton must be burned as soon as possible.
If I stay any longer, my life might be in danger!
All of them will suffer the consequences and some may even die without a burial place.
This must not happen, they must try their best to stop it!
But unexpectedly, Qing'er was like a madman, crying bitterly and hugging the skeleton.
No matter what I say, he refuses to move aside and refuses to get up!
"I don't care, I don't agree!" Qing'er burst into tears, "That's all I have left with this little thought, and you won't even leave me this pile of bones?"
Qing'er knelt on the ground, hugged Gu Yunni's thighs, and couldn't help sobbing loudly.
Gu Yunni showed an embarrassed expression. If she had not felt sympathy last time, she would have burned it.
After all, this is not a trivial matter.
With this thought, he lowered his head, helped the man up, and said awkwardly, "You don't have to do this. His soul is no longer here. Even if you really leave this so-called body behind, what use will it be?"
It’s not that Gu Yunni was unwilling to do things for him, but she felt that there was no need to do so. Now that everything was laid out, only the last step was left.
Who can tell what is right and what is wrong?
Gu Yunni didn't want to get involved in this, but since Qing'er found her, she had to help.
"Why are you doing this?" Qing'er saw that the national teacher had taken the white bones to the riverside, and then a fire broke out.
