"What are you guys doing!"

An angry voice sounded in the prison, and the jailers were startled by the sudden unfamiliar sound, and when they looked back to see the comer, their faces turned pale with fright, and they scattered on the ground, revealing a somewhat embarrassed woman lying on the ground.

The woman lay quietly on the ground, her clothes were a little messy, but fortunately they were not torn, but her face was pale, her expression collapsed in despair, and the red at the corner of her mouth made people's eyes hurt.

At that moment, Mu Liang's heart seemed to have been hit hard by something, and it hurt like he had never felt before.

He hurried forward, took off his coat and put it over her, and carefully held her in his arms. He hugged the person in his arms tightly, and his thin lips trembled slightly, which showed that he was angry.

Nantian, who came in after him, was also stunned when he saw this scene, but fortunately they came in time, if they were a step late, who knew what would happen.

"Master, what should you do with these people?" Nantian swallowed hard and spit, looked at Mu Liang, who was speechless, and asked in a low voice. Although he had been by Mu Liang's side for many years, at this moment, he was still scared. Because he felt a strong killing intent from Mu Liang, which had never been stronger.

"Pick off the tendons of your hands and feet, take them back, and this king will deal with them personally." Almost gritting their teeth and squeezing out the words, with boundless coldness, those jailers were already frightened, and they only kowtowed vigorously and begged for mercy. What's more, his legs trembled in fright, and he almost passed out.

But before they finished begging for mercy, Nantian had already raised his knife and cut off their tendons neatly.

The prison guards who were looking for death were finally taken away, and the silence of death returned to the cell.

A low, extremely suppressed cry came from her arms, Mu Liang felt a pain in her heart, and the arm holding her couldn't help but tighten a little.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Mu Liang said in a low voice, his tone was as gentle as a spring breeze turning into water, and the next moment it would melt ice and snow.

Mu Liang knew that Gu Jiuge had been awake, so he must have been afraid.

No matter how tough she is, she is just a girl after all.

"Mu Liang, am I okay?"

I don't know how long it took, Gu Jiuge asked in a hoarse voice, her voice was full of crying, and she was even a little trembling. Mu Liang was distressed when she heard this, let her lean on her shoulder, and gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth for her.

"I came just in time, and nothing happened." Mu Liang was relieved softly.

There was a faint coolness in the night, Gu Jiuge was wrapped in Mu Liang's robe, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep against the wall. Mu Liang didn't leave, just guarded her quietly.

The assassination of Concubine Zhen was a big deal, Gu Shuyuan hurriedly dressed up and entered the palace to ask for guilt, he knew that this matter was a trap for Concubine Zhen to save the Jiang family, so he tried to find a way to meet Concubine Zhen before going to see Mu Yao.

In the imperial garden, Gu Shuyuan knelt on one knee, his face extremely gloomy.

"Gu Xiang, what do you mean if you don't go to see Your Majesty, you have to see the palace?" Concubine Zhen gently fiddled with the white strip of cloth wrapped around her arm, and asked softly while looking at Gu Shuyuan.

Gu Shuyuan gritted his teeth in anger when he heard this, Concubine Zhen was simply asking knowingly!

"Concubine Zhen, the old minister has already ordered the Jiang family to be released, I wonder if Concubine Zhen can raise her noble hand?" Gu Shuyuan took a deep breath and tried his best to stabilize his emotions, and then asked. He said it tactfully, which can be regarded as giving Concubine Zhen enough face.

Concubine Zhen chuckled when she heard this, turned her head to look at Gu Shuyuan and said lightly: "Gu Yuan is really a smart person, you can rest assured, since my third sister is fine, then Miss Gu will naturally be fine." ”

Gu Shuyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "Since this is the case, then please let the mother go." ”

"Don't panic, the eldest lady is still on death row after all, and she wants to live in front of His Majesty. But Gu Xiang can rest assured, she will not worry about her life. Concubine Zhen got up and bent down to look at Gu Shuyuan and said with a chuckle, but she deliberately bit the last sentence very hard, which made people feel a chill in their hearts.

Gu Shuyuan's brows furrowed.

What does it mean to be free from life?

"Niangniang, if the little girl has half a loss, then please prepare psychologically." Gu Shuyuan stood up and said in a deep voice, how could Concubine Zhen not hear this naked threat.

Not long after the two parted ways and left, Mu Yao sent someone to invite them to try Gu Jiuge's assassination of Concubine Zhen in the imperial study. Gu Shuyuan was worried about Gu Jiuge's safety in his heart, and it was difficult to sit still.

After about half an hour, the two palace people walked in with Gu Jiuge. Her clothes were faintly disheveled, but she still couldn't hide the peerless elegance on her body.

What's even more shocking is that she is wearing Mu Liang's robe!

Mu Yao's pupils shrank and he took a deep breath. He had long seen that Mu Liang was different from others to Gu Jiuge, and he had repeatedly helped her without scruples. Looking at the current situation, it must be Mu Liang who is going to meddle in this matter again.

Sure enough, Gu Jiuge had just finished kneeling down and saluting, when he saw Mu Liang striding in.

"Your Majesty, it's all the concubine's fault. As soon as she entered the palace yesterday, she fell into a coma, and Ziyue's girl was also in a hurry, so she mistakenly said that it was Miss Gu who assassinated the concubine, which caused Miss Gu to be affected, and the concubine was really uneasy in her heart. "That Concubine Zhen is still a little conscientious, and she obeyed the agreement with Gu Shuyuan and verified Gu Jiuge's innocence.

What's more, even Mu Liang is here, if she has any more thoughts, who knows what kind of things Mu Liang will do, the last hunt is the best lesson.

Hearing her words, Gu Jiuge was not surprised at all, she knew that it must have been Gu Shuyuan who agreed to withdraw the punishment of the Jiang family, otherwise Concubine Zhen would definitely bite to death!

"Is that so?" Mu Yao didn't expect Concubine Zhen to say this, and asked with some uncertainty.

"Yes, Your Majesty, don't embarrass Miss Gu anymore, she is a girl after all, and she must have suffered a lot in the cell yesterday, otherwise the prince would not have run over in distress." She said with a smile, and she didn't forget to stomp on Gu Jiuge and Mu Liang fiercely between her words.

Gu Jiuge frowned, but he didn't bother to argue with her about anything, after all, she was still wearing the clothes of Mu Liang, if she opened her mouth to refute it at this time, what would it become.

What's more, she and Mu Liang are frank and open, what gossip are they afraid of?

"Your Majesty, the little girl has always been dignified and polite, as Concubine Zhen said, this matter is just a misunderstanding. Please also ask Your Majesty to open the net and let the little girl go. Gu Shuyuan picked up the hem of his clothes and knelt down, and said to Mu Yao.

Mu Yao saw that the two of them were in the same voice, and Mu Liang was present, so he no longer pursued the matter. What's more, Gu Jiuge is not an ordinary woman, so he can cut it when he says it. If something happens to Gu Jiuge, I'm afraid that the first one will be the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion, which is a risk that Mu Yao doesn't dare to take.

"Okay, since it's a misunderstanding, let's go back. Wang Cheng, you go to the imperial pharmacy to prepare some snow lotus ginseng for the eldest lady to replenish her body. Mu Yao nodded and said in a deep voice, Wang Cheng hurriedly went to prepare when he heard the words.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

……

Out of the imperial study, Concubine Zhen called Gu Shuyuan.

"Gu Xiang, I hope this incident can teach you and me a lesson. Since this palace can let Gu Jiuge go to death row once, it can let her go to the second and third times. Bengong said this, I don't know if Gu Xiang understands? Concubine Zhen was condescending and threatened in a cold voice.

The implication is that if something happens to the Jiang family again, Gu Jiuge will not be able to escape death.

"Just look at the Jiang family, if she does anything to lose her conscience, no one will be able to protect her!"

Gu Shuyuan coldly dropped a sentence and left.

At that time, Mu Liang and Gu Jiuge were walking on the path of the palace after all. Since yesterday, Gu Jiuge hasn't had time to say a word of thanks to him.

"Lord Wang, you don't have to risk your life for your courtiers in the future."

The words of thanks swirled down my throat, and when I finally said them, they became like this.

Mu Liang's face was stunned when he heard this, and he stepped forward sideways to block in front of Gu Jiuge, staring at her with his eyes fixed: "You have been avoiding me recently, why?" ”

I didn't expect him to ask so directly, Gu Jiuge was stunned, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

"The prince thinks too much, you and I shouldn't be involved, so as not to fall into the mouth. The courtiers have long been notorious and don't care about these, but the prince's status is noble, so he can't be like this. ”

Gu Jiuge raised her head and said with a chuckle, her bright eyes seemed to have been sprinkled with broken diamonds, shining in the bright sun, and they were incredibly beautiful.

During this time, she was indeed avoiding Mu Liang intentionally or unintentionally, and her words were also a little sincere.

Mu Liang's thin lips pursed when he heard this, he didn't know what Gu Jiuge thought in his heart.

"I don't ......"

"Ge'er, are you okay?" Gu Shuyuan strode closer, looked at Gu Jiuge and asked with concern.

"Daddy, I'm fine. It was just a little darker in that cell, and there was nothing. Gu Jiuge shook his head lightly and said softly, but he didn't say a word about everything that happened last night. Gu Shuyuan loves her so much, if he knew that she was almost bullied, he would be distressed.

Seeing her say this, Gu Shuyuan was relieved.

"Lord Wang, thank you for your help this time. The little girl owes the prince, I'm afraid she won't be able to pay it off. Gu Shuyuan turned his head and bowed deeply towards Mu Liang, his gratitude overflowing.

"It's okay, it's just why did Concubine Zhen suddenly change her words?"

Gu Shuyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "She did not hesitate to frame Ge'er for the sake of her sister, and now that I promised to release the Jiang family, she naturally has to abide by the agreement and no longer hurt Ge'er." ”

After he finished speaking, his face became more and more helpless, obviously it was his decision, but in the end, Gu Jiuge was allowed to bear all this.

Knowing the ins and outs, Mu Liang's face was slightly cold, and he returned to normal in a moment.

"Lord Wang, the old minister is worried about Ge'er's body, if there is nothing to do, the old minister will retire first."

Mu Liang nodded lightly, looked at the backs of the two of them who were drifting apart, and suddenly let out a sigh of relief.

Gu Jiuge couldn't hear what he just said.

I don't care......
