Chapter 272: Threat
The secret note that Lu Chengxiu wanted to hand over to Gu Haomian was in Gu Haomian's hands long before he held Gu Jin hostage.
At that time, Gu Haomian and Lu Guitang were searching for Gu Xiang's whereabouts separately in the Missing Moon Pool, and a hidden guard left the secret note in the inn that Gu Haomian was looking for, and attached Gu Xiang an ear bell to it.
The cipher reads:
If you want to save your sister and kill King Xian.
Gu Haomian almost instantly figured out the cause and effect of the matter: it was Lu Chengxiu who held Gu Xiang hostage, and it was also Lu Guitang who calculated that everyone came to the Missing Moon Pool, leaving them in the quagmire step by step.
Gu Haomian accepted the letter, turned around and was about to go out, but before he left the door of the inn, he was blocked by another hidden guard.
"Your Highness said that even if the young general doesn't care about the life of the third lady, he should also take care of the life of the second miss." What he stretched out his hand to Gu Haomian was the silk handkerchief that Gu Jin was carrying.
Gu Haomian frowned, he didn't expect that Lu Chengxiu even counted Gu Jin.
"You are so bold that you dare to hold your family hostage to order the courtiers!"
The hidden guard didn't speak, just turned over and jumped out before Gu Haomian went out, the palm under Gu Haomian's sleeve gradually clenched into a fist, and remembered what Gu Jin once said: He even dared to hold the Son of Heaven hostage, what else would he not dare.
Zhao Xide's voice came, "Young General! I've searched all over Chengxi Street, but I haven't found the whereabouts of the third lady, let's go to East Street and ask His Royal Highness King Xian, maybe they have clues over there. ”
Gu Haomian pole, he put the secret note in his hand and the silk handkerchief in his sleeve before he appeared in front of him, and looked coldly at Zhao Xide hurriedly coming in.
"Don't look for it, Xiang'er is not in the Moon Pool."
Zhao Xi was stunned for a moment, only to feel that he hadn't seen him for a moment, and Gu Haomian seemed to have changed in front of him.
"That ......"
"General Zhao, order troops!"
——
When Gu Jin saw Gu Xiang, she was crying in the house, Gu Jin frowned and approached, and the door behind her was closed by the guards outside the door.
She has never been in a good mood for Gu Xiang, but this time she is lazy.
"I will cry when I encounter something, and I will spread it out to teach people that it is a loss of style."
Gu Xiang noticed that someone had entered the house, and looked up at Gu Jin with a pair of swollen eyelids, Gu Jin thought that she would collide with herself again this time, but who would have thought that she felt even more ruthless.
not only cried fiercely, but also ran over to hug Gu Jin and cry.
The corners of Gu Jin's mouth grinned, he didn't know what to do in such a situation, whether to pull Gu Xiang up from him, or let her cry for a while?
When he hesitated, Gu Xiang's whimper came over: "Why did you come, I thought I was going to die here, I thought no one knew I was here." ”
The sadness of these words, Gu Jin could feel the fear in the heart of the girl lying on his shoulder.
Only then did she sigh, a little cold, reached out and patted Gu Xiang's back, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm not here to save you." ”
Gu Xiang stopped crying when he heard this, but he looked up at Gu Jin again, and didn't forget to look at the closed doors and windows behind the two of them.
The voice was choked: "Aren't you also arrested, what are you talking about saving me?" ”
Gu Jin's face sank, and he suddenly felt that Gu Xiang's temperament was really similar to He's, and if he wanted to hear a few good words from her mouth, it was really more difficult than ascending to the sky.
"It's better than you crying here alone."
Gu Jin no longer comforted her after saying this, but turned around and sat down at the table.
