Chapter 98 Because You Are Not Worthy
Hearing this, Dasheng was not annoyed and continued:
“The monarch said that you now have three options.
If you return with me, you will be the most honored woman by the side of the monarch, and from now on, no one will dare to bully you."
"If you don't go back with me, then the monarch will come and ask for your hand in marriage in the name of the Great Qi.
At that time, even for the sake of friendship between the two countries, Emperor Rongcheng will agree to your marriage."
Furthermore, if you don't want to go down either of these two paths, then don't blame me for being rude. I'll forcibly take you away now."
Gu Jingchun sneered when he heard this.
"Is this what you said about not pushing me anymore?"
Qi Dasheng smiled and took another step forward. "It seems that Miss Gu has chosen the third path."
"In that case, Miss Gu, please don't blame me for being rude."
As Qi Dasheng spoke, he raised his hand and gestured forward.
In an instant, more than a dozen men in black appeared from the darkness and surrounded Gu Jingchun.
Gu Jingchun also took out a hidden weapon from his arms in an instant, pointed it at everyone, and was ready to press the mechanism at any time.
Qi Dasheng knew this hidden weapon. As long as Gu Jingchun pressed the mechanism, hundreds of steel needles would be shot out at the same time, killing anyone present.
“I’m not choosing either path.”
Gu Jingchun said.
"I said it last time in Daqi: the path I want to take is not given to me by others, but the one I want to take myself."
Dasheng smiled when he heard that.
"It's been a long time since we last met, and Miss Gu is still so stubborn."
"As a woman, you should be more docile.
If you were only obedient, countless splendor and wealth would be yours, but why do you insist on being so hard on yourself?"
"Because I don't want to."
Gu Jingchun's words were powerful, and at this moment, another voice came from not far away.
"That's because you don't deserve it."
The cold voice, accompanied by the sound of horse hooves, startled everyone present and they immediately looked in the direction of the sound.
Then Shen Hechuan was seen riding on a horse, galloping towards them with a group of people.
He clamped his legs around the horse's belly, pulled the longbow, and shot in the direction of Qi Dasheng.
Dasheng just stood there quietly, and even the expression on his face didn't change at all.
At the moment when the long arrow approached him, another arrow intertwined with Shen Hechuan's arrow.
The two arrows collided with each other and finally stopped in front of Dasheng and fell to the ground.
Here, there is a killer hiding in the dark!
Gu Jingchun was surprised for a moment.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable to him, Qi Dasheng immediately ordered his men to retreat.
However, before retreating, his eyes fell on Shen Hechuan and he couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
With Qi Dasheng's order, the men in black surrounding Gu Jingchun quickly hid in the darkness and disappeared.
By the time Chen Hechuan approached, Gu Jingchun was the only one left by her side.
Chen Hechuan ordered his men to chase Qi Dasheng and the others, while he jumped off his horse and quickly arrived in front of Gu Jingchun.
He looked Gu Jingchun up and down, and after making sure that she had no wounds on her body, he breathed a sigh of relief and held her in his arms.
Gu Jingchun closed his eyes helplessly, looking numb.
Oh, never mind.
In the end, it was all in vain.
However, returning to Tiandu is much better than going to Da Qi.
Gu Jingchun sighed softly.
Fortunately, there is still a lot of time, so she should think of other ways to escape.
However, the most urgent thing now is to appease the person in front of me.
Because, at this time, Shen Hechuan had calmed down.
He let go of Gu Jingchun, took a step back, and looked at her coldly with his sharp eyes.
Then he grinned and smiled.
"Gu Jingchun, you really are...very capable."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun slowly raised his eyes, and his peach blossom eyes were instantly filled with grievance.
“Your Highness, thankfully you arrived in time. They came out of nowhere and kidnapped me, trying to take me away.
If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have been taken away just now."
As she spoke, tears began to flow, and she took a step forward, looking at Shen Hechuan pitifully.
"I knew you would come to save me."
Chen Hechuan looked at Gu Jingchun and couldn't help but snorted again.
However, his originally cold expression has improved a lot.
At this moment, another shout was heard from a distance.
Princess Rongyang was carried on the horse's back and ran over screaming.
"Gu Jingchun, I'm here to save you."
"I called my brother, the prince."
Princess Rongyang was carried off the horse and immediately went forward to look at Gu Jingchun. Only after confirming that Gu Jingchun was fine did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"Although you saved me just now, I also called my brother here. Now, we are even."
Princess Rongyang smiled as she spoke.
"Besides, this way you can't elope with Brother Ziqian."
Gu Jingchun: ...
Almost at the same time, Xiaoman, Lanxin and others also rushed over.
When Shen Hechuan, whose expression had just relaxed, heard this, he sneered and uttered two words lightly.
"elopement?"
"Oh……"
Gu Jingchun: ...
"Well, I can explain it. That's all your sister's nonsense."
"Yeah?"
Shen Hechuan continued to sneer.
"Why don't you explain to me how Rong Yang got here?"
Gu Jingchun: ...
"How about you explain to me what's going on with the secret passage in your shop?"
Gu Jingchun: ...
"How about you explain to me how you got out of the city?"
"Or rather, how did you and Luo Ziqian deceive me?"
Gu Jingchun: ...
She couldn't explain it, so she simply closed her eyes and fainted.
Although Gu Jingchun intended to pretend to be dizzy this time, he was actually dizzy.
When she woke up again, it was already the next day.
Gu Jingchun woke up from an unfamiliar bed. As soon as he opened his eyes, he met Chen Hechuan's cold eyes.
She was startled and her body trembled. Then she said, "Where am I?"
"Eastern Palace."
Chen Hechuan threw down two words, then took a few steps back, sat down at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it quietly.
"Where's Xi'er?"
"Where did Xier go?"
Gu Jingchun asked immediately, with anxiety evident in his eyes.
However, Chen Hechuan sneered again.
"Before I tell you where Xier is, why don't you tell me whose child Xier is?"
Hearing this, Gu Jingchun fell silent.
When the Queen Mother guessed Gu Jinxi's identity, Gu Jingchun knew that Gu Jinxi's identity could no longer be concealed.
That was why she had to advance her plan of faking her death and wanted to take Gu Jinxi away.
Unexpectedly, she failed to leave in the end and returned to the starting point.
Thinking of this, Gu Jingchun looked at Chen Hechuan and said directly: "Yours."
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan clenched his hands tightly.
"If that's the case, why didn't you tell me?"
