Chapter 17: The Butterfly Wall
Along the way, Mo Lianqi frowned and did not speak, and the atmosphere in the carriage became very heavy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Gu Tingcheng finally managed to return to King Jing's Mansion, and the two went to the study very tacitly.
As soon as he entered the study, Gu Chengcheng couldn't wait to put the brocade box in his hand on the desk, and asked, "Can you tell me, what is this thing?" Why are you all shocked when you see it? ā
Mo Lianqi did not rush to answer her words, but reached out to open the brocade box, and the butterfly jade pendant inside once again emitted a ghostly light.
This is the second time Gu Tingcheng has looked at this butterfly jade pendant, she reached out to pick up the butterfly, and when Mo Lianqi reacted and wanted to stop it, Gu Tingcheng had already put it in the palm of her hand.
It's okay, it's okay for her to hold it like this? Mo Lianqi looked at Gu Qingcheng incredulously. Realizing his shocked look, Gu Qingcheng reached out and put the butterfly in front of him in confusion and asked him, "What's wrong?" Any questions? ā
After repeatedly making sure that there was nothing wrong with Gu Qingcheng, the corners of Mo Lianqi's mouth widened. It's herself who overreacted, she's her daughter, how can there be a problem!
"This ghostly butterfly is untouchable to ordinary people, otherwise the soul will be imprisoned by it. But you're different, you're the one who is qualified to touch it. ā
This thing can imprison the soul, so wouldn't anyone who touches it die silently? So why are other people so desperate to get it?
"Why is it called the Butterfly Pavilion, is there anything unusual about this Butterfly Pavilion?"
Seeing that Gu Qingcheng didn't know the origin of Youdiebi at all, Mo Lianqi smiled helplessly. I'm afraid she is the only one in the world who can talk about the butterfly so casually.
"As you can see, it's a butterfly-shaped piece of bi, and because it naturally emits a ghostly light, people call it a butterfly bi.
It is also rumored that the butterfly was born in the underworld, and the butterfly rested on the flower on the other side, and it is said that it can bring the dead back to the world, so it is also called the messenger of the underworld.
A person who owns a butterfly is equivalent to an extra life, so even if they know the danger of the butterfly, there are still people who are eager to get it.
The last time the Butterfly Bi appeared was more than a hundred years ago, I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of Mrs. Yue, although Old Madam Gu got the Butterfly Bi, but she didn't know how to use it, and finally went around and returned to you. ā
The messenger of the underworld has come back from the dead, does that mean that she still has a chance to go back to the future? Although this place is good, Gu Tingcheng has never given up looking for a way back. She came through the soul, and the butterfly is related to the soul, maybe it can really help me wear it back.
"And how exactly is this thing going to be used, you know?"
Gu Qingcheng's emotions were very excited, and she couldn't wait to know how to use the Hidden Butterfly Bi. It's a pity that Mo Lianqi replied that she didn't know.
"Where can I find information about using the Phantom Butterfly?"
Gu Qingcheng does not give up, since there is a legend of the Hidden Butterfly, then there must be a way to use the Hidden Butterfly, no matter what the price is, she must know.
"You're worried about how to search for news about the Butterfly, but how to protect yourself and keep it.
Rumors of your possession of the Butterfly should have been spread out there by now, and now you and it are no longer safe. Don't go out of King Jing's Mansion for the time being, as for the King of Youdiebi, he will find a way to help you deal with it. ā
That's right, she has now become the sweetheart of all kinds of killers, if it weren't for Mo Lianqi mentioning it, Gu Qingcheng himself would have forgotten about this potential danger. Damn, I know that Old Madam Gu didn't return Mrs. Yue's relics to her so kindly.
"So what now? Because of my relationship, King Jing's Mansion is no longer safe. Don't you blame me for the trouble I caused to King Jing's Mansion? ā
It's just a cooperative relationship between them, and the Butterfly Bi is a legendary treasure, so Mo Lianqi doesn't want it? He spared no effort to help her, what was the picture?
"No matter what you think, you are already the princess of this king, this will not change, this will be your home in the future, from the moment you step into the Jing Palace, our lives have been connected."
In fact, King Jing's Mansion is not peaceful, and the person on the dragon chair and the person in the harem have always wanted to get rid of him. Gu Tingcheng marrying into the Jingwang Mansion is equivalent to tying his life here.
Mo Lianqi's words touched Gu Qingcheng's heart, although it was only for a short moment.
"Don't worry, King Jing's Mansion has given me and Mother Wang a place to live, and I won't hold you back. As long as the herbs I need are in place, I can help you treat your legs right away. Your strength is my solid backing in the future. ā
Although it was a little different from her expectations, Mo Lianqi's heart was still very happy, as long as she regarded this place as her home. He's going to try to be strong, strong enough to protect her for the rest of her life.
"The medicinal materials you listed, the housekeeper has sent someone to find them, and this king believes in you, so you must also believe that this king can protect you."
Mo Lianqi said very sincerely, and Gu Qingcheng felt a little strange in his heart when he heard it. "Well, I believe in you too. I'll put it here for safekeeping, I, I'll go back first. ā
Gu Tingcheng almost finished speaking and fled, and after leaving the study, she glanced back and secretly scolded herself for being unproductive.
And in the study, Gu Qingcheng's escape successfully pleased Mo Lianqi. After Gu Qingcheng walked away, he commanded into the air:
"Pass the order, the whole mansion is on alert, and not a single rat will be left who break into King Jing's mansion."
As soon as Mo Lianqi's words fell, I saw a slight fluctuation in the air, and the study calmed down again. In fact, even if Gu Qingcheng didn't hand over Youdiebi to him for safekeeping, he would ask for it.
In the study of the Gu Mansion, Gu Jinlin told the origin of Mrs. Yue, Gu Tingcheng's life experience is not ordinary, and the Butterfly Bi cannot be placed on her body. This is also the reason why Mo Lianqi chose not to tell Gu Tingcheng the origin of the butterfly.
Since ancient times, only the people of the Youdi tribe know how to use it. And the origin of the You Clan, Mo Lianqi was also known because he was born in the royal family. The matter must be resolved as soon as possible.
After Gu Qingcheng returned to his courtyard, he remembered that he had forgotten the most important thing and did not say anything. The second aunt said that there was another truth about her mother's difficult birth, and Gu Tingcheng had no way to verify it, if she asked Mo Lianqi for this matter, King Jing's Mansion should have a way to find out the truth of the year.
It's just that now that there is such a troublesome thing as Youdiebi, it seems that the matter of finding clues can only be pushed back first.
Wang's mother robbed her very seriously, and the secret guard had already taken her back to the palace for treatment one step in advance. Wang's mother was hit with a sword in the chest, and when Gu Qingcheng came over, the doctor had already bandaged it.
After Mother Wang saw Gu Tingcheng, she struggled to get up and was stopped in time by Gu Tingcheng.
"Mother Wang, don't get up if you're seriously injured, how are you feeling now? I'm sorry, Mama Wang. It's all my fault, and if I hadn't let you go, it wouldn't have happened. ā
Mother Wang's injury made Gu Tingcheng feel very guilty in her heart, in her heart, Mother Wang had already surpassed ordinary relatives. She has to become strong in order to protect herself and Mother Wang.
"The princess doesn't have to worry about the slave, the doctor said that the wound is not deep, and it will be fine to recuperate for a few days. It's just that the slaves and maids can't serve the princess these days. ā
"How can anyone think about others when they are injured, Mother Wang, you can rest assured that you can take care of yourself. I'm not going anywhere for the next few days, I'm here to stay with you until you're healed. ā
It has always been Mother Wang who has been taking care of her, and this time Mother Wang was seriously injured, and Gu Tingcheng also wanted to do something for her.
"Is there something wrong with the Gu Mansion, did the eldest young master do anything to you, is it the old lady that she is embarrassing you again?"
Hearing Gu Tingcheng say that she would not go anywhere, Wang's mother subconsciously thought that she had been wronged in the Gu Mansion. She was seriously injured at the time, and she fainted with confidence when she saw the prince coming. After that, Wang's mother didn't know yet.
"Well, something happened. But don't worry, Mother Wang, I don't have anything to do. After that, Gu Tingcheng told her about the old lady's return to Youdiebi.
"Mother Wang, you have been in the Gu Mansion for a long time, have you heard anything about my mother's origin?"
Gu Qingcheng is not stupid, it is unreasonable for a treasure like Youdiebi to appear on her mother in person. Originally, she only knew that Mrs. Yue was Gu Jinlin's outer room, and she didn't know anything else. Thinking about it now, she doesn't know where her mother's origin is, and where Mrs. Yue's maiden home is.
Although Wang's mother has been in the Gu Mansion for many years, she was just a water porter in the back kitchen at that time, and she didn't know about the privacy of the Gu Mansion. And the ghostly butterfly, which she had never heard of.
Gu Tingcheng also thought that the Hidden Butterfly was a legendary treasure known to everyone in the Chu Kingdom, but in the end it was not like this. It turns out that the existence of Youdiebi is only known to those relatively large families, and ordinary people have rarely heard of it.
But this also shows the mystery of the Butterfly Pavilion, which is certainly not an ordinary treasure. It's a pity that Wang's mother doesn't know about this, otherwise she would have known a little bit about her mother's parents.
"Although the slave doesn't know, the prince will definitely know. Since the prince promised to protect the princess, he will definitely do it. You don't have to worry too much, miss. ā
Although Mother Wang and Gu Tingcheng have a master-servant relationship, over the years, she has secretly regarded Gu Tingcheng as her own child. She hopes that Gu Tingcheng can do well, although Prince Jing is not perfect, but he is also a person worthy of trust, and Mother Wang is optimistic about the two of them in her heart.
Seeing that Mother Wang mentioned Mo Lianqi, Gu Tingcheng's newly calmed heart became restless again.
"I worked with him when I was in a relationship, and he would definitely protect us. Besides, I am the only one in this world who can heal his legs, and he can't ask me too late. Anyway, I'm here for all these things, Mother Wang, you don't have to worry, just take care of your injuries. ā
Mother Wang didn't understand Gu Tingcheng's thoughts, since the young lady woke up, she found that Gu Tingcheng was very resistant to this aspect. If it weren't for the persecution of the Gu family, I'm afraid she would never think about marrying someone in her life. I hope that Prince Jing can move her a little bit.
