The atmosphere on the field was almost frozen, and everyone didn't dare to gasp, Lu Rong's eyes flashed with excitement, while Gu Qingwan's gaze was always as calm as water.

Ji Yuling bent down, picked up the lion's head, looked at it, then turned to Gu Qingwan's direction, and said, "Since this slave is so important to you, then you put her lion head on and run in the forest with the other 'animals', and let me shoot an arrow." ”

What the......

Gu Qingzhao's gaze froze, his heart shrank sharply, and he immediately stepped forward, stopped in front of Gu Qingwan, and said, "No, I will never agree." ”

When Lu Rong heard this, she immediately said excitedly, "Princess Yingming, I think this method is good, and it can also test Gu Qingwan's sincerity." Hmph, Gu Qingwan, if you refuse to accept the princess's proposal, it means that what you said just now is false, you are deceiving the princess, and it is a big crime to deceive the princess. ”

Mama Li, who was beside Ji Yuling, felt that it was inappropriate, and persuaded on the side: "Princess, the county lord of Zhaoyang is the daughter of Gu Houye, even if it is a saint, he will give this Gu Hou Ye three points of thin noodles, and the princess is afraid that it is not appropriate to do this." ”

Ji Yuling heard this, instead of stopping in moderation, she said disdainfully: "He is just my father's courtier, so I am not afraid of him!" I'm a princess, can't I teach a little county lord a lesson? ”

Saying that, he looked at Gu Qingwan with a faint gaze and asked, "How?" ”

Gu Qingwan stood up under the gaze of everyone-

"Sister......" Gu Qingzhao hurriedly grabbed her hand, "Don't be fooled, I see that this princess has vicious methods and will not let you go easily." ”

However, Gu Qingwan gently took Gu Qingzhao's hand on her wrist away, continued to walk forward, until she walked in front of Ji Yuling, took the lion's head from her hand, and said, "I believe that the princess is a man of words. ”

Ji Yuling was stunned for a moment, but her hand did not let go of the lion's head, she looked at Gu Qingwan tightly and asked, "Aren't you afraid?" I'm not going to show mercy, I'm going to shoot this arrow. ”

Gu Qingwan didn't speak, and with a little force, she took the lion head in Ji Yuling's hand, put it on her head, and walked towards the "animals" in the woods.

"No, the county lord doesn't want it, the slave maid has a cheap life, it's really not worth the eldest lady to do this for me." Seeing Gu Qingwan like this, Zilan cried and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to her again and again.

Gu Qingwan stopped, helped Zilan up, and said, "Sister Zilan, you remember, you are the person next to me, don't shed tears easily at any time, understand?" ”

Zilan nodded as if she didn't understand, wiping away the tears from her cheeks.

"Ziyu, help Zilan back to my tent, change her clothes, apply some ointment on her hands, and don't let people see her disheveled." Gu Qingwan commanded.

Her voice still didn't have any warmth, but it made Zilan almost faint with emotion.

"You ......" Ji Yuling didn't expect Gu Qingwan's attitude to be so resolute for the sake of a minion.

"But ......" Gu Qingwan turned around and said to Ji Yuling, "I also have a request, if the princess's arrow doesn't hit me, I will let these people go, and I will never play this kind of human life game again in the future." ”

"Good! I promise you! Ji Yuling clenched her fists and agreed to Gu Qingwan's quid pro quo.

"Wait a minute!" Here, Gu Qingzhao walked over quickly, and without saying anything, he took off the lion's head on Gu Qingwan's head, threw it on the ground, and protected her behind him-

A pair of torch-like eyes looked at Ji Yuling, and said unceremoniously, "A princess, instead of being considerate to the people and her subordinates, she takes pleasure in playing with human life, in broad daylight, Lang Lang, if this matter spreads, even the emperor will be disgraced, you are not worthy of being a princess at all!" ”

"You, you dare to reprimand me......" was reprimanded by Gu Qingzhao in public, Ji Yuling suddenly blushed, she was the seventh princess, when was she reprimanded like this, even if it was her father, he was reluctant to scold her like this. And this Gu Qingzhao actually said that she was not worthy of being a princess! This doesn't take her seriously at all!

"Zhao'er, don't be impulsive." Gu Qingwan grabbed Gu Qingzhao's hand, shook her head at him, and said, "Have you forgotten what I said?" You don't want to get involved in the matter between women, I have a way to do it, don't worry. ”

"No way!" But Gu Qingzhao said resolutely, "I also said that I want to protect my sister, at this time, no matter what you do, I will never let you be in the slightest danger." ”

He looked at Ji Yuling again and said, "If the princess really likes to play with human life, I Gu Qingzhao will accompany me, don't touch my sister." So saying, he put the lion's head on his head, and walked towards the forest with a fearless face.

"Are you willing to die for her?" Ji Yuling asked in surprise.

However, Gu Qingzhao didn't answer her, but continued to walk forward expressionlessly, his handsome back revealing a touch of perseverance.

"Gu Qingzhao, you're really crazy!" Lu Rong looked at Gu Qingzhao and stomped her foot hard, her head was about to smoke.

"Zhao'er......" Suddenly, a voice came from his ear, and he only felt a soft and boneless little hand pinching one of his fingers.

He was stunned, turned his head to look, and saw Gu Qingwan's warm and warm face, the smile on his face was like the rising sun in spring, melting a piece of snow.

The two siblings held each other's hands and walked forward together, the wind blew, and their dresses were intertwined, which was extremely moving.

The others, who were forced to act as prey, had frightened expressions on their faces, and they began to run in fear, trying to find a place behind the limited cover to block the arrows.

Ji Yuling looked at their backs advancing and retreating together, and suddenly felt a strong anger surging in her heart, why, why are these people willing you to die for me, I will die for you!

"Bring the arrows!" She stretched out her hand and ordered in a cold voice, "In that case, that princess will fulfill your desire for death!" ”

As she spoke, she put the arrow string on the bow and arrow, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she slowly pulled up the bow and arrow in response to the thoughts of Gu Qingwan and Gu Qingzhao.

Gu Qingwan turned her head slightly, looked at Zizhu, Zizhu nodded at her silently, the hidden weapon hidden in her sleeve silently slipped to the palm of her hand, sandwiched between her two fingers, and her eyes were firmly fixed on the bowstring of the seventh princess.

This is the order of the county lord!

She thought back to what had just happened, and the county lord looked at her with trusting eyes, and said:

"When the time comes, if the seventh princess refuses to let go, then I will put on a lion's head instead of her and let the princess shoot arrows, and the task of blocking arrows will be handed over to you."

Ji Yuling pulled the bow and arrow away, and through the bowstring, her eyes fell on the two backs, at this time, they really looked like a pair of people who depended on each other in life and death.

She gritted her teeth, the arrow shifted slightly, her hand loosened, and the off-string arrow shot out violently!

"Sister!" When Gu Qingzhao heard the snapping sound, he immediately hugged Gu Qingwan tightly, spun around, protected her with his body, and fell to the ground, and the two of them closed their eyes tightly at the same time.

But......

This arrow......

"Bang!" Ji Yuling's hand felt numb, the bow and arrow fell to the ground, and the string swooped forward a few meters and stuck on the ground.

Who dares to do it to her! Ji Yuling was shocked, and her painful hand retracted.

And before Zizhu's hidden weapon could shoot out, she suddenly looked back -

Ji Yuling also turned her head angrily and shouted, "Who dares to hit the hand of this princess!" ”

However, when she saw that person clearly, her whole person became bad, and her original arrogance was suddenly extinguished.

She stammered:

"Five, fifth brother, are you here......"

It turned out that just now it was Ji Xu's personal bodyguard Nameless who was ordered to use a hidden weapon to knock down the bow and arrow in Ji Yuling's hand, and it fell before she could let go of the string.

"How so?!" Seeing Gu Qingwan rubbing shoulders with death again, Lu Rong showed an extremely disappointed expression on her face.

When Gu Qingwan and Gu Qingzhao heard this shout, the two of them opened their eyes at the same time - "Sister, it's His Royal Highness the King of Yujiang." Gu Qingzhao said happily.

Gu Qingwan was stunned, he finally came?

She raised her eyes and looked at Ji Xu, only to see-

He was wrapped in a silver robe, clean and clean, with a python-shaped dark flower pattern on the edge of his clothes, exuding a noble and elegant bearing, he looked at Ji Yuling expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Xiao Qi."

"Fifth brother, you, why are you here?" Ji Yuling was born to the queen, and her relationship with King Yujiang was not good.

She was even very afraid of this fifth brother, she was the seventh princess who was the most favored by the saint, but this favor was insignificant compared to King Yujiang.

When she was very young, in order to vent her anger for her prince brother, she went to trouble Ji Xu, and finally after the emperor found out, he punished her harshly and ordered her not to provoke Ji Xu.

She is the emperor's favorite daughter, and she usually can't bear to scold, but she punishes her for an outsider, although she is unwilling, but there is no other way.

And as she grew older, her fifth brother became more and more indifferent and unkind, let alone provoke him, every time she saw him, Ji Yuling would take a detour.

"Why can't this king come?" Ji Xu asked, his voice was as clear as promised, but his gaze involuntarily fell on Gu Qingwan's body, seeing her fall to the ground, he put the hand in his sleeve and shook it lightly.

Ji Yuling felt Ji Xu's displeasure, and hurriedly said, "Of course the fifth brother can come, but Xiao Qi didn't expect to meet the fifth brother here." ”

Ji Xu glanced at the frightened "prey" in the woods, and his gaze stayed on Gu Qingwan's body for a moment before retracting it, and said:

"Xiao Qi, have had enough."

Ji Yuling understood what Ji Xu meant, and in order not to anger her, the fifth brother who was difficult to get along with, she took a step back and said, "This princess is indeed a little tired now. As he spoke, he said to her entourage, "Chi Lie, let them go." ”

"Yes!" The black-clothed guard nodded to his subordinates, and the men stood up, and the "prey" saw this, and hurriedly got up from the ground and fled in all directions.

"Give each of them a hundred taels as a tip." Ji Yuling instructed the grandmother beside her.

"Yes, Princess."
