Chapter 238: To Each His Heart

When they entered the room, Gu Qingcheng saw Tuoba Jun's solemn face, so he asked him nervously, "You came to me, is there something wrong?" ”

Tuoba told Gu Qingcheng that as soon as they left the palace, a group of killers were waiting to intercept and kill them on the way to the palace.

It's just that the killer didn't expect that there would be a palace guard to escort her back to the mansion, so he temporarily canceled the operation.

Of course, the praying mantis catches the cicada, the yellow finch is behind, and the whereabouts of the killer also fall into the eyes of Tuoba Jun's guards who protect Gu Qingcheng.

At that time, in order not to startle the snakes, and wanted to find out their lair and lead out the mastermind behind the scenes, Tuoba Jun's guards did not intercept and kill those killers.

But all day, the killers stayed at the small inn in the city, and did not find their den.

After Tuoba Jun finished speaking, Gu Tingcheng had not reacted, and Gu Yuqing had already shouted in shock: "What, someone wants to assassinate Allure again?" ”

Assassination and framing of these things, Gu Qingcheng has gone through many times, Gu is not surprised, only asked calmly: "Do you know where it is sacred?" ”

"According to the Lingyun report that protects you, looking at the killer's weapons and clothing, it should be like a package of killers from Fanghua and Taiheng Mountain, and it is estimated that they are from the Nine Hidden Underworld." Tuoba Road.

“…… The Nine Hells Mansion is also eyeing me? Gu Qingcheng was a little stunned.

After a pause, she sneered again: "Who is so interested in me that you actually invited someone from the Nine Shadows Mansion to clean me up?" ”

Gu Yuqing was confused, looked at Tuoba Jun and Gu Qingcheng and asked in shock: "What is the place of the Nine Secluded Underground Mansion?" ”

"The Nine Shadows is a huge killer organization." Tuoba Jun said to Gu Yuqing.

Gu Yuqing was dumbfounded for a moment.

Tuoba Jun said to Gu Qingcheng with a solemn expression: "Later, Ling Yun and the guards followed him and found out that it was Batu from the Dongping Palace, so he asked the assassin to temporarily change his actions and withdraw. ”

“…… King Dongping again? Gu Qingcheng said coldly, "He is actually involved with the killers of the Nine Shadows Mansion, could it be that the killers who murdered your father and assassinated you before, he is the one behind the scenes?" ”

“…… Not sure. Tuoba Jun muttered, "According to common sense, it is such a heinous crime to dare to murder the crown prince and assassinate this king, he will not be so careless and let Batu show his feet." ”

"I also think Batu was exposed too easily." Gu Qingcheng said, groaned slightly, and asked again: "Last time Taiheng Mountain was assassinated, did you catch it alive?" ”

Tuoba Jun shook his head silently: "Taiheng Mountain was assassinated, we fell into the Golden Dragon Canyon, the Eighth Emperor Uncle led people to save Liu Ziye, and then the assassins fled, died, and the seriously injured and lonely also committed suicide by biting poison, and they didn't catch a single mouth." ”

Gu Yuqing squinted at Tuoba Jun with great dissatisfaction, and interjected: "Then what kind of killer from the Nine Shadows Mansion, who actually dares to assassinate your King Gaoyang, and also implicate Allure?" I said you would only hurt her! ”

"Big brother!" Gu Qingcheng let out a low cry to prevent the eldest brother from pestering Tuoba Jun again.

Gu Yuqing pursed her lips and looked at Tuoba Jun coldly.

Tuoba Jun didn't bother with Gu Yuqing, and said to them:

"Before, we caught a few killers and used capital punishment before confessing that there are four halls of rebirth, bliss, nirvana, and rebirth under the Nine Secluded Underground Mansions.

They don't know where the Nine Secluded Hells really are, but they only say that the Nine Netherlands threaten that all sentient beings are suffering, and the killer is a transcendent sentient being, so that the secular people can reach Bliss as soon as possible, and the souls of the dead under the knife will be reborn. ”

"Humph!" Gu Yuqing was a young man with strong blood, and after hearing this, he snorted angrily: "Ascend to Bliss early, why don't they destroy their parents and relatives!" ”

Tuoba said: "Most of the killers have no family, or have been abducted by traffickers since childhood, and they don't know where their families are, and they are controlled by the Nine Hidden Underground Mansion with drugs. ”

"It's terrifying that no one knows where they really are in such a huge killer organization!" Gu Yuqing couldn't help but be terrified when she heard it.

"The people behind the scenes have been manipulating the Nine Shadows Mansion to assassinate this king," Tuoba Jun said to Gu Yuqing again: "This is the reason why I have not dared to disclose my relationship with Allure so far." If they knew that Allure was my beloved, Allure would be their target. ”

"Even if you don't make it public now, Allure has become their target!" Gu Yuqing couldn't help but be annoyed again.

He didn't want to raise the bar with Tuoba Jun again, but at this moment, when it was about Gu Qingcheng's stability, he became nervous again.

Tuoba Road:

"The killer who chased and killed Allure before, it was Gu Liu's family who asked Yihun to invite a slave killer.

The person who instructed Lao Jiu to come to Yixin Hall to make trouble behind his back should be my third emperor brother, King Dongping.

Now there are people who are in contact with the killers of the Nine Hidden Underworlds, and there are actually people from the Dongping Palace.

On the surface, King Dongping is indeed related to the Nine Hidden Mansions. ”

"Can you be sure that the mastermind who hired the slave killer in the first place was...... My mother? Gu Yuqing has not revealed in front of outsiders that he is not Liu Rushuang's son.

Tuoba Jun bowed slightly:

"It was Yihun's younger brother Yiji who went to buy the murderer secretly on behalf of Yihun, and this king has already slaughtered him openly." Tuoba Road.

"Didn't I hear that Otoyoshi was killed by the general in front of all the soldiers because he violated military discipline?" Gu Yuqing wondered.

"Will General Ben give him a chance to break military discipline." Tuoba Jun said with a smile.

"It turns out that you killed Na Yiji for Allure." Gu Yuqing said suddenly.

Gu Qingcheng also knew at this moment that Tuoba Jun had killed Yiji for her.

"He bought his brother to kill people, and delayed the training of soldiers, and he died innocently!" Tuoba Jun sneered.

“…… Okay," Gu Yuqing's face was scornful, "You still have a little affection!" ”

Seeing that Tuoba Jun avenged Gu Qingcheng, looking at Tuoba Jun's sneering smile, he temporarily laughed with him.

"Yi Hun is in cahoots with the king of Dongping, which can be described as an embarrassment, and the king of Dongping is the adopted son of the queen's mother.

Aunt Jiu was misled and used phosphorus powder to blame the city, which was done by the queen's mother, but the two royal forest troops had already been wiped out by the king of Dongping.

Now the queen mother sees that the emperor's grandfather loves Allure, and she is even more afraid of threatening her status as the queen's mother, and wants to get rid of Allure as soon as possible.

They invited the killers of the Nine Hidden Underworlds, but not the local slave killers, not only because the killers of the Nine Hidden Underworlds were ruthless enough, but they also had some scruples, fearing that the matter would be exposed and burned. Tuoba Jun analyzed again.

In the end, Tuoba Jun said to Gu Tingcheng again: "The killers don't have a chance to attack during the day, they come to the vicinity of the Gu Mansion to step on the spot, it is estimated that they will not wait any longer, and they will definitely take action at night."

You now quietly leave the Gu Mansion with me, and when they move at night, this king will catch turtles in the urn. ”

“…… Will they really come back in the evening? Gu Qingcheng asked in astonishment.

Tuoba Jun nodded and said:

"Killers receive money and must complete their mission. They lurked in Pingcheng, and they also came to Gu Mansion to step on the point, and they couldn't prevent it.

They are like ghosts, elusive, even if they want to exterminate them, for a while, it is not so easy. ”

Gu Tingcheng called Feihong Feiyan to come in, and as soon as they heard that the county lord had left the palace, there was a killer who was preparing to assassinate the county lord, and they were all surprised.

Feiyan said: "Then we follow the county lord and protect the county lord, where the county lord goes, we will go." ”

"Yes, we will swear to guard the county lord to the death." Fei Hong also said.

"No, you stay in the Gu Mansion, don't startle the snake." Tuoba Jun said to Feihong Feiyan, "But you also have to pay attention to safety. ”

Feihong Feiyan saw that King Gaoyang had already arranged it, so they had to nod and obey.

"Gu Yuqing, you can't show any rumors in front of your mother, just pretend that you don't know anything." Tuoba Jun instructed Gu Yuqing again.

"Okay, my subordinates understand." Gu Yuqing bowed respectfully.

Tuoba Jun explained Feihong Feiyan and Gu Yuqing, and wanted to leave the West Chamber with Gu Tingcheng.

Gu Qingcheng's face was heavy, thinking about something else.

Gu Leyao returned to her mother's room and hurriedly reported everything in the West Chamber to her mother and two sisters.

Liu Rushuang and several daughters were shocked, no wonder they were so kind to me on the birthday of their ancestors, it turned out that they had already had an adulterous affair!

Liu Rushuang gritted her teeth and said: "It turns out that this slut is retiring from the king of Nan'an for the sake of King Gaoyang, I still think about why she is willing to give up the dignity of Princess Nan'an, it turns out that she climbed a higher branch and hooked up with King Gaoyang earlier!" ”

"That slut is tired of life!" Gu Xinyao's eyebrows fluttered with joy.

Gu Chuyao was looking forward to Lu Zuo Zhaoyi retiring from Gu Qingcheng's doll and becoming the princess of Nan'an, but she didn't think that her feet would be wasted, and everything would come to naught.

Now that Gu Tingcheng actually retired from the king of Nan'an for the sake of King Gaoyang, he couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope:

"King Nan'an is still desperate for her, and in front of the people of the world, he said that he would pursue that slut again with his own sincerity!

If King Nan'an knew that the slut had hooked up with his nephew a long time ago and dumped him, do you think he would still miss the slut? ”

Liu Rushuang gritted her teeth and said: "If Your Majesty knows that Gu Qingcheng has caused the royal family to cause trouble to Xiao Wall, even if you love her again, I'm afraid you won't be able to tolerate that slut, right?" ”

"Gu Tingcheng is dead this time, when she hooked up with King Gaoyang, she obviously still had the title of King Nan'an's doll, she was so shameless, she made King Nan'an lose face and became a royal joke, and His Majesty couldn't spare her!" Gu Chuyao said fiercely again.

Gu Xinyao said excitedly: "While King Gaoyang is in the West Chamber at the moment, let's hurry up and catch the traitor, so that the slut in Gu Qingcheng will die without a place to be buried!" ”

Gu Xinyao said excitedly, she wanted to go out, and even Liu Rushuang, who was seriously injured in bed, and Gu Chuyao, who was not good at walking, were also ready to move.

Gu Leyao immediately pressed them, shook her head slowly, and said:

"Although King Gaoyang is in the West Chamber at the moment, in broad daylight, the eldest brother and the two maids are also there.

King Gaoyang not only asked the slut to release the slave and help her raise donations, but also accompanied Prince Liu Song and them to Taiheng Mountain with him.

Anything he does with that slut now seems to be logical and justified.

The day before yesterday, they were in distress in Taiheng Mountain, and they were alone and widowed outside for a night, and His Majesty and King Nan'an did not pursue it.

He can be said to be looking for that slut to discuss something, and there is a big brother to testify to them, we can't help them, but will startle the snake, steal chickens and eat rice. ”

After Liu Rushuang heard this, she pondered for a long time, and nodded cautiously:

"Yes, he is the eldest grandson of the Emperor of Gaoyang, the general of the Flying Eagle, and his identity is not trivial. We must hold our breath and not be impulsive.

We must think of a perfect strategy, the so-called catch the traitor must be in bed, in case there is any mistake, slandering the king of Gaoyang, we are the crime of extermination! ”

Gu Chuyao and Gu Xinyao both looked annoyed and disappointed.

"Mother, I have to discuss with my cousin, King Gaoyang is a flying eagle general, and his martial arts are strong, how can I catch the traitor in pairs, and my cousin must come out of this matter." Gu Leyao said calmly.

"Right...... I have to hurry to your cousin, and I can't delay for a moment. Liu Rushuang also nodded.

"But my mother is injured, how can I go out to find my cousin?" Gu Xinyao said.

"Or, please ask your cousin to come over?" Gu Chuyao said.

"We can't let my cousin come to us, let Gu Tingcheng know that we have discovered her secret, and we have fallen short." Gu Leyao shook his head and said.

"Hurry up and find Steward Li, find a sedan chair to carry, even if it is climbing, you must discuss with your cousin as soon as possible." Liu Rushuang said excitedly, "If we don't get rid of Gu Qingcheng, we won't have a good life." ”

Gu Xinyao saw that her mother was struggling to get out of bed, so she stopped her: "Mother, I'd better go find my cousin." If you go out with an injury like this, you will attract the attention of the slut. ”

Gu Leyao also nodded in agreement: "My mother is seriously injured and has not recovered, if she goes out at this time, it will really arouse the vigilance of that slut!" ”

So Gu Xinyao hurriedly went out and found her cousin Yihun.

Yi Hun saw Gu Xinyao coming to him in a hurry, he should have gone to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

As usual, he first cared about his cousin Liu Rushuang's body for a few words, and then asked directly: "Xin Yao came to find her cousin, but what is the matter?" ”

Gu Xinyao couldn't wait to tell Yihun about Tuoba Jun's affair with Gu Tingcheng, and Tuoba Jun's tryst with Gu Mansion and Gu Tingcheng over the wall.

Yihun was surprised and delighted, but he didn't expect them to finally find Tuoba Jun's weakness.

Gu Xinyao was a little worried and talked about Gu Tingcheng coming back to find the girl.

Yihun said: "Xin Yao, you go back and tell your mother, so that she doesn't have to worry, she is the mother of the Gu Mansion, even if she kills those cheap slaves, it will be their life." Even if it's the government, there's nothing you can do with your mother. ”

He asked Gu Xinyao to go back, and he also went out at the same time and acted separately.

He couldn't even take care of dinner, so he hurriedly went to Tuoba Han, the king of Dongping, and reported the discovery of Gu Tingcheng and Tuoba Han to Tuoba Han.

When Tuoba Han heard that Tuoba Jun and Gu Qingcheng had already had an ambiguous relationship, he thought of the burning of the ** hall, the person who beat him and the black-clothed masked man in the hunting field, which should have been done by Tuoba Han.

At this moment, when I think of the thief's words and deeds, it is really what Tuoba Jun has done.

He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and jumped like thunder, and the cup in his hand was also smashed by him.

"Okay, you wolf cub! Dare to beat your Third Emperor Uncle, so he is not afraid of thunder and thunder? Tuoba Han was fierce, "When this king kills that little slut tonight, he will slaughter your polar wolf!" ”

"Your Highness, no wonder the last general failed to get rid of Gu Qingcheng several times, and even Lu Ling fell into the hands of Tuoba Jun, it turned out that Tuoba Jun had been secretly protecting that slut." Yihun Road.

"I could have destroyed that Gu Allure City today, but I didn't expect my father to send the Imperial Forest Army to protect it!" Tuoba Han slammed his fist on the table again, "In this way, the action at night may not succeed!" ”

Batu bowed his hand to Tuoba Han and said, "My subordinates will send someone to quietly watch it first to see how things are going at night." ”

Ouyang Shuo, the military advisor of the King of Dongping, stopped Batu and said to Tuoba Han: "Your Highness, you shouldn't send anyone from the Dongping Palace's Mansion to contact the killers of the Nine Hidden Mansions. ”

It was indeed not the person from the Dongping Mansion who went to find the Nine Hidden Underground Mansion, but it was only in the urgency of the day's action that Tuoba Han temporarily asked Batu to pass on the revocation action.

Tuoba Han looked at Ouyang Shuo's sharp eyes, and also regretted sending Batu to deal with the killer during the day.

But at that time, he knew that his father had sent the Imperial Forest Army to escort Gu Qingcheng out of the palace, and it was too late.

If the killer missed at that time, he traced back to the source, and was afraid that he would find out about the Dongping Palace, so he temporarily sent Batu Fei to inform him.

At that time, it was expected that there would be no assassination operation, and the Dongping Mansion would not be exposed.

Tuoba Han also nodded slowly: "No one in the Dongping Palace, it is still not suitable to come forward." ”

After Tuoba Han finished speaking, he looked at Yihun with his eyes and looked at his expression.

Sure enough, Yi Hun arched his hand and said: "It is really not appropriate for anyone to appear at the scene in the Dongping Palace, or should the last general send his henchmen to inspect the results of the operation, right?" ”

Ouyang Shuo turned his worries to peace at this time, and said with a smile: "Even if the operation fails at night, we can let Tuoba Yu and Tuoba Yu bite each other, and His Highness will reap the benefits of the fisherman!" ”

Tuoba Han nodded silently, rubbed his chin, and said with a sinister smile: "If the Eighth Emperor Brother knew that it was Jun'er who robbed his beloved doll Gu Qingcheng, how do you say he would deal with Tuoba Jun?" ”

So, Yihun sent secret agents, and then went to the vicinity of Gu's mansion and entered the nearby houses to monitor Gu's every move.
