(142) Wanhua River Lantern Afterimage (36)

When I saw that he had spotted me, I did not squirm, and after sneaking down from the roof, I found the direction of the few people, knocked out the guards guarding there with a few blows, and then broke the chain blocking the window with internal force, opened the window and climbed in.

"Young Master Gu, since the farewell banquet in the palace that day, how are you doing?" I raised my eyebrows, the smile on my face brighter than the sun today, and I didn't even think to hide my schadenfreude.

When Gu Yuancheng saw me, he subconsciously wanted to go to my side, but as soon as he got out of Mu Ying's support, the whole person rushed forward with all his strength.

"Young Master!" Mu Ying let out a low snort and quickly reached out to help him steady.

Seeing that Gu Yuancheng had been supported, I silently withdrew half of my outstretched hand, and turned sideways to get out of the way, "You take him out first, and I'll take care of the aftermath here." ”

Mu Ying glanced up at me, then shook her head and gently pushed Gu Yuancheng to my side, because she immediately withdrew her hand, I could only quickly hold on to the crumbling Gu Yuancheng.

"My lord, please take the young master away, my martial arts are too poor, I can't take the young master to avoid the people in the Gongqin Guo Mansion and leave here." Mu Ying looked at me, with a solemn trust in her eyes, but under that layer of trust, I saw something different, not like Gu Yuancheng, nor like herself.

"The Duchess of the Kingdom will not let you go." I frowned, disapproving of her approach.

"Don't worry, sir." Mu Ying lowered his eyes, "I have my own way, it will be fine." ”

"Nope." Before I could persuade him, the guard at the door was already impatient to come in and investigate, and Mu Ying, not wanting me to waste any more time, pushed us to the wide open window.

"Let's go." The japonica was anxious.

Time is really pressing, and I can't take Gu Yuancheng away safely and securely at the same time, so I can only tell "be careful", and then turn over the window with Gu Yuancheng on my back.

"Mei Yan is a good excuse, you can use him to deal with it for a while." Gu Yuancheng suddenly spoke.

The corners of my mouth pulled, I couldn't help but discuss it in my heart, and then jumped on the roof with him on my back, climbed over the rockery in the courtyard a few times, and touched the path all the way out of the Gongqin Guo Mansion.

After leaving the mansion, I didn't dare to stay, so I simply sneaked into the palace with him and ran all the way to the deserted garden where Emperor Qi took us to before.

"When your father receives the news of your escape, he will definitely send someone to intercept you in front of the palace gate, and your Emperor His Majesty may not be reliable, so now you can only hide here." I put down Gu Yuancheng and helped him sit on the stone bench in the pavilion.

Gu Yuancheng looked at me with a strange face, and opened his mouth to say something, but as if he would expose his shortcomings if he said it, he hesitated and couldn't make a decision.

I looked back at him inexplicably, waiting for him to say what he wanted to say.

"You ......" Gu Yuancheng paused for a moment, then turned his gaze away and said, "The palace can be slipped in so easily by you, it seems that the people of the Imperial Forest Army should be replaced." ”

“......”

I worked hard to avoid the Imperial Forest Army, and I worked hard to carry him here to avoid the disaster, and in a word, it is time for the Imperial Forest Army of the Qi Kingdom Palace to be replaced?

My face darkened by more than a half, but Gu Yuancheng didn't see it at all, he hesitated for a while, and suddenly tilted his head and asked me, "Did you come to the Guogong Mansion today to save me?"

I was stunned for a moment, then turned my head and said unnaturally, "I saved you just by the way, I... I just want to see what you're doing, and you know, that's my interest. ”

After being silent for a while, Gu Yuancheng made up his mind and turned his head to look at me, "Qingzhi, I ......"

At this time, suddenly a pink-clothed palace maid forcefully pushed open the old palace gate of the deserted garden, and I immediately interrupted Gu Yuancheng's words, and pulled him to hide in the bushes behind the stone pavilion.

"Humph!" Gu Yuancheng snorted coldly in a very bad mood, and a pair of eyes stared viciously at the pink-clothed palace maid who was passing in front of him, as if he wanted to rush over and eat others.

"What's wrong with you?" I saw that he was abnormal, and asked him in a whisper.

The faint smell of vanilla approached, and his heart fluttered, and Gu Yuancheng's face became inexplicably better again.

"It's fine." Gu Yuancheng didn't dare to look at me, so he secretly looked away.

I frowned at him, uncertain, "Are you alright?" ”

Recently, Gu Yuancheng has always been strange, it is still good before, it is a little fierce, but his mind is not as difficult to guess as it is now.

Being stared at by me so closely, Gu Yuancheng's cheeks became redder and redder, and in the end, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply threw me to the ground, put his hands on both sides of my neck, and looked at me condescendingly.

"You ......" I didn't slow down, what the hell is going on!

"Shen Qingzhi, let me ask you." Gu Yuancheng looked straight at me with a serious expression, "In your eyes, am I the best-looking person in the world?" ”

Belch?

What the hell is this question.

I opened my mouth slightly, but I didn't know how to answer his question. Jiuzhou Chinese

"Isn't it?" Seeing that I didn't answer, Gu Yuancheng tightened his eyebrows and asked me again.

Not only did he ask, but the whole person pressed down a lot, my heart began to pound, and my thoughts became very blurry, I stared blankly at his glass-like eyes, and somehow remembered that day, he was dressed like a fiery red, lazily lying on my bed, layers of flying snow and veils floating, and in the hazy haze, the sunset will go out, and the glow will be all over the sky.

“...... Be. ”

If it's that day.

I silently added this sentence in my heart, but Gu Yuancheng didn't think much about it, but after listening to my answer, he seemed to be very happy.

He approached me a little closer, smiled and asked me, "Do you think I'm rich?" Is it enough to feed one more person? ”

That's not nonsense, Emperor Qi holds you in the palm of his hand as if you were a brother, not to mention the money, he will almost hand over the throne under him to you.

I rolled my eyes at him and gave a sour "um".

I don't know if Gu Yuancheng really didn't hear the jealousy in my tone, or if he didn't hear it, not only did he not despise me, but the smile in his eyes deepened.

"So in your opinion, I can be regarded as a powerful person?"

After being asked so many brainless questions by him one after another, I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, "Gu Yuancheng, what do you want to ask?" ”

"Answer me," Gu Yuancheng ignored my doubts and stubbornly wanted my answer, "Am I considered a person of high authority?" ”

"Well......" I saw that he really wanted my answer, so I deliberately delayed for a moment, and then replied in his increasingly anxious look, "Although the status of the minister of a country is not as good as that of the emperor of heaven, it is also above ten thousand people under one person."

"That," Gu Yuancheng's face was almost on mine, I hurriedly stretched out my hand to block it, and he reluctantly stopped, "I, a person who has the power and money, and looks talented, should there be many people who like it?" ”

"You can't have someone you like, do you?" I looked at him suspiciously.

"Yes." Gu Yuancheng admitted very frankly, "Shen Qingzhi, do you want to know who she is?" ”

My heart moved, and I just wanted to speak, but I saw that the palace maid who had just passed by turned back again, but at this time, Gu Yuancheng didn't plan to stop the topic, and opened his mouth to say the name of that person, I was in a hurry, I raised my hand to cover his mouth, and the whole person turned over and pressed on top of him, controlling him and unable to move.

"When she's gone, I'll let you talk enough." I leaned into his ear and warned him in a very low voice not to move.

Gu Yuancheng really didn't move anymore, but I don't know if it was because of my warning.

"You let go of the last chance." The maid suddenly spoke, as if to speak to someone behind me, and I lifted my head slightly, and saw through the gap in the bushes a crimson figure coming from behind the broken wall.

It's her?

I had a guess in my mind, so I calmed down and listened to the conversation between them.

"I know." The man who came later bit his lip lightly, and his face was a little pale.

"Then it's time to keep your promise, right?" The pink-clothed palace maid was a little aggressive, and seemed to expect that the other party would definitely be obedient.

"But ......" The woman in scarlet clothes looked very hesitant, even resistant, but in front of the palace maid, her momentum was obviously shorter.

"Do you want to go back? You know the master's methods, right? Seeing the scarlet woman hesitate, the pink-clothed palace maid immediately opened her mouth and threatened, "When the time comes, you will not be alone, but all your relatives, you care, or care about you." ”

"I know, but ...... Can you assure me that that thing won't hurt anyone? The woman in scarlet didn't seem to fully believe the words of the palace maid in pink, but she was forced to compromise with the palace maid in pink under some pressure.

The pink-clothed palace maid seemed to be annoyed by her question, and replied impatiently, "I have promised you many times, that thing is absolutely harmless to the human body, if you don't believe it, you can try it yourself." ”

There was no blood on the scarlet woman's face, and she bit her lip and couldn't speak.

"Before noon tomorrow, the master will see your promise." The woman in pink estimated that it had been a long time, repeated her request again, and hurriedly left the deserted garden.

The woman in scarlet staggered back suddenly, almost falling to the ground, her eyes filled with tears, but she couldn't shed anything.

"What the hell am I ...... What have you done......"

The woman in scarlet clothes left in despair, and when she left, the remnants of the flowers withered, and the scarlet clothes were stained with dust.

"Hmm!" Gu Yuancheng looked at me in a daze, and couldn't hold back and reminded me loudly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" I quickly let go of my hand, got up and stood up, and as an apology, I bent down and pulled him.

"I said you......" Gu Yuancheng opened his mouth to teach me a lesson, but I directly covered my ears to say that I couldn't hear.

"Now that your body has recovered, it's time for us to go." When I saw that he was holding back his words, I put down my hand and pointed to the wall of the deserted garden.
